As long as you die, you are invincible, but in 40K

Of course, Zhang Ge did not let the two of them down.

The Ascalon on his waist began to vibrate at some point, and when he followed the vibration and drew his sword, his body seemed to be pulled, and he leaped lightly and flew directly towards the green crystal on the top of the tower.

This time, there were no surprises.

Ascalon's sword pierced into the crystal supported by the top of the tower without any delay.

The world seemed to suffocate for a moment at this moment.

The crystal did not explode in the uncontrolled and violent energy as imagined, but suddenly collapsed towards the center until it turned into a singularity invisible to the naked eye.

Below, the "Gate of Eternity" carried by the obelisk suddenly stretched out, piercing through this singularity like an incision in space.

When the two collided, everything seemed to be pulled away.

The originally stable space and time were suddenly torn to pieces.

The true form of the Eternal Gate was revealed in this chaotic space.

At this moment, Zhang Ge saw through it countless wormholes connected to each other, as well as countless metal corpses standing silently behind the dark green openings of the wormholes.

But before he could really see the details, the powerful corrective force of time and space closed the tiny gap.

The green light that was originally flickering on the obelisk had completely disappeared, and even the anti-gravity device at the bottom stopped working. It began to fall down like a corpse.

Before Zhang Ge could even recover from the previous incident, the next strange thing happened.

The living metal structure of the obelisk began to gradually break apart as it fell, but after breaking apart, they did not turn into nothingness, but instead gathered into a fluid-like shape.

Zhang Ge lost his footing and could only hold on to Ascalon, who seemed to be anchored in mid-air, to keep himself from falling.

Until the last piece of the structure was pulled out, countless black living metals had already enveloped Zhang Ge like a surging wave.

Then, as if they had received some signal at the same time, these living metals suddenly stabbed into Ascalon's sword together, and were swallowed up by the seemingly inconspicuous and simple long sword at an extremely fast speed.

When the last bit of black disappeared, a strange power began to be transmitted into Zhang Ge's body from the hilt of Ascalon.

Is it psychic energy? No. Is it physical force? No.

It was something difficult to explain, like a part of some incomplete authority. Zhang Ge suddenly felt an impulse rising in his heart.

Then he let go.

The body did not fall, but was suspended in mid-air.

After that, Zhang Ge released the impulse with all his strength towards a certain point on one side of the rift.

A strange vision appeared.

The material structure of countless metals seemed to have been broken apart by some kind of impact, collapsing into the most disordered state, until it spread outward and dug out a huge circular hole with a diameter of tens of meters.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Ge could no longer think of anything else, because at that moment he seemed to have exerted too much force, and all the strength in his body was drained away, and even his consciousness began to blur.

In this trance, he felt his body begin to fall, but it did not hit the bottom, but was caught by something.

Chapter 173: A Stronger and More Powerful Zhang Ge

In the trance when his consciousness faded and the dim darkness passed, Zhang Ge vaguely felt that he had entered a nightmare as a bystander.

In the nightmare, the owner of the dream fought with a middle-aged man holding a sword on a red planet for countless days. The battle was so fierce that the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the rules were erased. But in the end, he was still defeated and was sealed by the old man deep under the earth.

Just as Zhang Ge was watching with great interest, his view suddenly zoomed in and focused on the long sword in the old man's hand.

In the hazy state, Zhang Ge only had time to wonder:

Huh? Why does this thing look so familiar?

Then, he slowly woke up.

Zhang Ge struggled to open his eyes.

It was the familiar ceiling and the familiar Dominica, but the difference this time was that Amelia was lying on the bed next to him.

When he realized that he had returned to reality, the first thing he did was not to recall what happened before he fell into a coma, but to try hard to remember the dream scenes he had seen.

However, as expected, after some attempts, it was unsuccessful.

Was it a dream? Or some kind of foreshadowing?

Zhang Ge only remembered that the scene he saw at that time was very clear, and it was definitely not a dream he had woven.

But what exactly was it? He couldn't remember at all.

He could only put this matter aside for the time being. After completing the bedside care process with Dominica again, Zhang Ge stood up with her help.

"How's Amelia doing?"

"The doctor said everything is fine, but for some reason Sister Amelia hasn't woken up."

He took two rounds of the Necromancer Obelisk's twin secondary guns and survived, but just hasn't woken up yet. This means he's actually going to see the Emperor.

"Is that so? I remember there was a Space Marine with us. Where is he?"

"When we saw him, he had fallen to the ground and was unconscious, but he didn't seem to be seriously injured. So after a simple treatment, he was handed over to the Space Marines. He should be receiving treatment in their own medical department now."

Since the Space Marines were fine, Isis should be fine too.

Only then did Zhang Ge begin to care about what was happening to him.

Think about it, what did you do before you fell into a coma?

Holding the sword, I stabbed the crystal...what happened next?

Many memories turned into scattered fragments, and Zhang Ge tried hard to piece them together and barely recalled a small part of the picture.

He remembered that he must have seen something, and then a force came from the sword, and finally he shattered a lot of things.

After realizing he couldn't remember anything more, Zhang Ge felt it for a moment and could still sense the unfamiliar surge within him, so he continued to speak to Dominica:

"Just find something and put it about three meters away from me."

Dominica felt a little strange when she heard this request, but she didn't ask any questions. After confirming that Zhang Ge could stand steadily, she took a medicine bottle and placed it on the ground three meters in front of Zhang Ge.

"Don't stand by, step back... farther away."

When Dominica retreated to about seven or eight meters away, Zhang Ge began to try to mobilize that power like he did before he fell into a coma, but this time he did not use all his strength, but only concentrated a part of it.

...

A few seconds passed in silence.

In Dominica's opinion, Zhang Ge seemed to be trying hard to do something. His expression frowned and he even pointed at the medicine bottle several times, but it was unclear what had happened.

Just when she was worried about whether it was some sequelae and wanted to go forward to show some concern for him, Zhang Ge said seriously:

"Don't move, don't come near me."

After saying this, Zhang Ge slowly squatted down and touched the ground with his bare palm.

Instantly, the ceramic steel floor began to disintegrate, collapse, and eventually dissipate, until a semicircular pit with a diameter of two or three meters was dug out and it finally stopped.

The speed was so fast that Zhang Ge himself couldn't react to what happened. He almost fell into the pit. It was Dominica who rushed over and grabbed his wrist and pulled him up.

"This is?"

Dominica looked at the large pit with smooth edges and asked with some concern.

"Some kind of...power to reconstruct matter? But I don't seem to be able to control it precisely right now, so I can only use it roughly like this."

Faced with her question, and feeling the sensation that the power brought him when he used it, Zhang Ge could only give such a vague answer.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to explain it in more detail, but he really can’t describe it specifically.

However, Dominica did not seek any specific explanation. When she heard that it was a kind of power obtained by Zhang Ge, she felt relieved.

I understand. It must be the emperor's mighty power that made Zhang Ge stronger and more powerful!

Looking at the expression on Dominica's face, Zhang Ge naturally knew that she must have misunderstood something in her head. However, he was used to her style and was too lazy to say anything more. He just started asking about what happened after he fell into a coma.

From Dominica's explanation, Zhang Ge roughly understood what happened.

Simply put, after falling unconscious, Isis retreated outside the entrance and called for backup.

The first to arrive at the scene were the Space Marines and Battle Sisters who were already prepared for the second wave of entry, followed by the Skitarii Vanguard, and finally the Astra Militarum who were running relatively slowly.

After the rescue, the various troops quickly took control of the scene and blocked all the others who came later from the entrance, until the overwhelmed Calga arrived for the third time because of something involving Zhang Ge.

As for what happened next, there is no way of knowing.

There were only two or three people who participated in the conversation with Calga, and they kept silent about it afterwards. After the Space Marines took over, they not only completely sealed off the scene, but even the personnel responsible for the search and rescue signed extremely strict confidentiality clauses.

Of course, although Dominica was also a member of the confidentiality clause, she still flexibly adjusted her bottom line in front of Zhang Ge. After she finished telling the above things, she mentioned to Zhang Ge that these were confidential matters and should not be spread easily.

Faced with the mess before him, Zhang Ge, unwilling to use his brain to sort out what information was contained within, could only sigh helplessly and use his legendary unique skill:

Regardless of.

Whether it is the Necrons or Calgar, let them do whatever they want. Zhang Ge just needs to do his job well. All conspiracies and tricks are nothing but bubbles under Zhang Ge's goal of seeking death. At worst, he can shoot himself when he is in desperate situation, and then everyone can wait for good luck to come together.

While thinking this, Zhang Ge asked about the time and got the answer that he had been unconscious for about a day.

In other words, there are still about three days before departure.

After feeling that he was not seriously injured, Zhang Ge left the ward and prepared to regroup his troops.

Chapter 174 Before Departure

Just as Zhang Ge was thinking about various things and stepped out of the door, he found that there seemed to be someone following him besides Dominica.

He looked back following the sound of footsteps and found that the two people at the door who he thought were guards were following him.

They were wearing full-coverage force feedback armor with a military green and black color scheme, and holding plasma guns and grenade guns in their hands.

Generally speaking, the Astra Militarum is rarely associated with the word power armor, so when Zhang Ge first glanced at them without looking closely, he thought they were the elite armed believers of the Battle Sisters themselves, but now he looked carefully at the logo.

Why is it the logo of the 1st Mechanized Infantry Regiment?

Oh yes, the things that I and the Mechanicus wanted did include several hundred sets of force feedback armor... Considering the unit price of this thing, these alone would cost millions of throne coins. The other party agreed to it casually as if it were a few laser guns, so I had no impression of it for a while.

"You are?"

The two soldiers answered almost simultaneously:

"Your guards."

Huh? Guards?

How come I didn't know I had a guard?

I just fainted for a day, what has the deputy commander done now?

"Your number and personnel composition."

This time it was the soldier on the right who answered:

"A total of 155 people, reorganized from the former Zhongsi Army Guards of various units."

The Zhongsi Army, generally speaking, these elite infantrymen who graduated from military academies have two destinations. One is naturally to be incorporated into the Stormtrooper Corps, and the other is to serve as guards for senior officers of the Astra Militarum.

Since they are elite infantry, they are naturally very rare. A guard of the regiment commander has only about ten people... Where did these more than a hundred people come from?

Putting aside the confusion in his heart for the moment, Zhang Ge turned around and, following Dominica's guidance, crossed the corridor and reached the outside world.

After leaving the hospital where medical nuns and ordinary medical staff were mixed, he looked up and saw that the light projected down was still dim. Judging from the relative positions of the landmarks, this place should still be within the area controlled by the gang before.

However, now this place has completely changed. Huts, tents and the like are densely packed on both sides of the road and even extend onto the road. A large number of civilians are moving around under the guidance and control of a small number of PDFs.

To be honest, it looks a little more shabby than before.

Zhang Ge naturally knew that this was the situation caused by the influx of civilians from Yakaolan. It was not an easy task to settle hundreds of millions of people in an area that originally had only a few million people. Now it should be the situation where personnel have just begun to be transported, and it will only become more crowded in the future.

Following Dominica who was walking in front, Zhang Ge came to the garage on the side of the hospital.

While seeing the familiar light armored vehicles, he also saw more than two dozen Chimeras parked full of vehicles, as well as the guards of the same type stationed there.

The highest-ranking officer among them, who should be the captain of the guard, stepped forward upon noticing Zhang Ge's arrival, saluted, and said:
