Chapter 165 Tombstone Gate

Chapter 165 Tombstone Gate

The vast swarm of wild orcs covering the mountains and plains are climbing over the mountains and ridges, rushing towards the place where the black stone obelisk is.

Fu Qinghai, who is nearly 2.8 meters tall in full armor, and old Hu Xian, who is 1.8 meters tall, are inconspicuous among the orcs.

Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian were able to defeat the Blackstone Tribe with just two people. It was normal for a certain interstellar warrior from the Iron Snake Chapter to coordinate with the group's tactical goals to contain them alone on a wild planet. I have been green-skinned for more than ten years.

Are the Space Marines too powerful? Strictly speaking, the technology of the Savage Orcs is too backward. The survivability of the Space Marines is already abnormal. If a Savage Orcs did not develop something like the Snakebite Clan, they would have been bred by Scrooge. In the biotechnology tree, bone knives and stone axes alone will never be able to break through power armor. As long as the space warrior of the Iron Serpents Chapter uses favorable terrain to prevent himself from falling into the sea of ​​beasts, he can completely fight with the wild orcs of an entire planet. deal with.

But the two of them did not take it lightly or lose their vigilance. Fu Qinghai told the old man Hu Xian that he could temporarily cooperate with the orcs, but he should never trust the orcs.

Because cunning is also the nature of the orcs.

Brother Gomao is the green-skinned god, the projection of the orcs' thoughts and emotions in the subspace. Brother Gomao is fierce and cunning, and Brother Mao is cunning and ferocious. Brother Mao will beat you hard when you are not paying attention, and Brother Go will beat you even harder after you find out.

Fu Qinghai and the Blackstone Tribe just have a common enemy, which does not mean that the two parties have become allies.

Fu Qinghai looked down from the hillside. In the depression, the black stone obelisk still stood tall, and the crack in the tomb world that was cut and expanded by the old man Hu Xian with his lightsaber was still there.

Fu Qinghai thought of another reason why the Savage Orcs had never been defeated: the existence of the Black Stone Obelisk might restrict the psychic powers from the subspace, including Brother Mao's self-organized local area network, and the weird boys who played with psychic powers would basically be useless. .

The Necron repelled the attack of the wild orcs, but did not choose to build a position outside the rift. Instead, they hid in the passage, closed the door and beat the dogs.

Fu Qinghai read the tactical information from this scene - the Necrons did not have many troops.

The two people quickly followed the wild orcs to the crack. Under the expectant eyes of the greenskins surrounding them, the old man Hu Xian pulled out the lightsaber, and the green blade lit up. The old man held the hilt of the sword with both hands. Push down hard.

"laugh!"

As the lightsaber cut, the crack formed by the entire black stone gradually expanded, red and hot.

"Ouch..."

The greenskins who were watching couldn't help but exclaimed. On this planet full of black stones, black stone was the hardest material they had ever seen. They didn't expect that Old Xiami's Burning Sword could actually cut through it.

For a moment, the greenskins looked at old man Hu Xian with expressions full of admiration, and a few of them with quick thoughts began to stare at the lightsaber thoughtfully.

Soon, the rift was expanded again by Old Man Hu Xian. Although the Scrooge was still unable to enter, more green-skinned boys could enter at once.

Fu Qinghai raised his head and looked at the war boss, his meaning was very clear:

According to the plan, it's your turn to serve as cannon fodder.

The war boss raised his neck, raised the weapon in his hand, bared his fangs, and roared:

"Waaaaaaaagh!"

"Waaagh!" "Waaagh!" "Waaagh!"

It was responded to by roars one after another.

Countless wild boys beat their chests with various weapons, then jumped into the cracks in a group and disappeared in the green light.

They may be killed instantly by a volley of volleys from the immortals waiting below, but it doesn't matter, the number of greenskins is endless.

As soon as Fu Qinghai reached cooperation with the war boss, he immediately encouraged the Blackstone Tribe to mobilize and set off, in order not to give the ancient tomb technicians time to repair the tomb world and install defensive devices.

Like dumplings, the greenskins jumped into this ball of light one after another, bringing with them various types of Scrooges.

Fu Qinghai counted silently in his mind. In just ten minutes, 852 Orcs had entered, but all of them disappeared.

There are more than 800 greenskins, and the corpses must be piled up in the passage.

Finally, a wild boy crawled out of the crack excitedly, holding a metal arm in his hand, and reported to the war boss: The iron skeleton guarding the entrance of the passage was finally killed by the brave green boys. !

The war boss looked at Fu Qinghai. Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian looked at each other, nodded, and jumped into the crack together.

A light flashed before his eyes, and the scenery suddenly changed.

As soon as Fu Qinghai regained his vision, he saw green-skinned corpses all over the ground. Their death conditions were extremely miserable. The stripped bones and annihilated fragments were piled up in the passage.

A green beam of light struck.

The old man Hu Xian waved his sword to block, and the beam of light returned to the original path and hit the immortal who fired. The green light covered his chest and completely peeled off his metal sternum covered with undead skin.

"rush!"

Fu Qinghai shouted and rushed forward.

Using the green-skinned corpses piled up in the passage as cover, Fu Qinghai stepped left and right, his snakeskin movements flashing through several beams of Gauss rays. The moment he passed by two immortals, he raised the Blue Teeth Chain Sword. Pull hard!

"Bah, bah, bah—"

Dazzling metal sparks lit up, and the neck of an immortal's skeleton was sawed off by the teeth of the Blue Fang!

After sawing off the immortal's neck, before the head hit the ground, Fu Qinghai took advantage of the situation and slashed, "Whoa!" The other immortal's back was hit by a blow, and his chest was directly cut through by the high-speed rotating blade fangs, and the skull was He tilted his head, the green light went out, and he fell to the ground slumped.

The Orcs who were fighting hard in the passage saw this scene and their morale suddenly rose.

The Blackstone Tribe used 800 green-skinned boys to replace one immortal, and Fu Qinghai killed two of them as soon as he came up.

On the other side, old man Hu Xian pulled out the lightsaber from the body of an immortal, turned to Fu Qinghai and grinned:

"It's not difficult, just like killing the B2 robot."

That's because you can bounce Gaussian rays, so you think the Immortal is similar to the B2 super battle robot in Star Wars, Fu Qinghai thought.

In fact, B2 is just a burlier B1 robot. The weapons it uses are blasters and laser cannons, which are incomparable to the double-barreled Gauss blasters and particle cannons in the hands of the Immortals.

Fu Qinghai turned back and hung the double-barreled Gauss blaster and particle cannon that were stripped from the immortal's corpse on his waist. He ignored the admiring looks of the green-skinned boys and randomly chose a fork in the passage to stand shoulder to shoulder with old man Hu Xian. Run inside.

Once the breach in the tomb world is opened by Fu Qinghai and Old Man Hu Xian, and the greenskins swarm into the complicated passages extending in all directions behind, the Necrons will become even more uncomfortable.

Along the way, Fu Qinghai saw the ghost of the underworld worker quietly emerging from the wall in a super-phase state. He chopped the head of a violent orc into pieces with one claw, and then was overturned by the pig-riding boy who followed behind. A group of wild boys yelled and threw it down, pressing it down like a pile of arhats.

Four or five wild boys pressed the ghost of the ghost under their bodies, bit it with their teeth, and beat it hard with sticks. Electric sparks exploded from the metal joints of the ghost of the ghost. As a result, a high pile of green skin suddenly sank, and the ghost suddenly sank. The body of the work ghost became ethereal and transparent, floating out from the pile of green skins, swinging its long spiked tail, unfolding its sharp appendages, and placed them in the bodies of the wild boys.

Then, the ghost of the underworld worker returned to the normal dimension from the super-phase state. The solid spiked long tail and sharp appendages instantly pierced and cut the four or five wild boys, turning them into fragmented green-skinned corpses.

At the moment when the ghost of the underworld worker solidified again and killed the wild boy.

"嗗嗗...锵!"

The Blue Teeth Chain Sword cut off half of its body neatly.

"Plop!"

The spiked long tail fell down weakly, and the ghost of the underworld worker floating in the air fell as if it had lost its support, and hit the ground with a bang.

This powerful underworld construct finally died.

Fu Qinghai looked at the huge corpse of the ghost worker at his feet, thought about it again and again, and finally gave up reluctantly.

Fu Qinghai cannot carry unlimited loot, which will eventually affect his dodge and speed.

Most of the armies of the Necrons are typically high in attack, medium in defense and low in agility. Later human empires discovered that in large-scale battles, no matter what kind of armored tanks, cannons and Titans were arrayed against the Necrons, the result would never be the same. They all lose, but in small-scale encounters like the Death Watch team, the Space Marines can easily kill the relatively slow and dull Necromancer warriors with their powerful reactions and speed.

Even Fu Qinghai's carefully crafted Blue Shell power armor will still fall apart in the face of Gaussian fission rays and antimatter particles.

Therefore, agility is Fu Qinghai's first weapon against the Necrons. Secondly, it is the magical weapon that cuts the skin of the Necrons like melons and vegetables - the Green Teeth Chain Sword.

In a section of the passage, seven or eight Underworld Scarabs gathered in a group and were cleaning up the green-skinned corpses left over from the previous round of battle. Before they were cleaned up, a new round of Orcs had already arrived, and the Underworld Scarabs had already arrived. The wings fluttered and buzzed, and they took off one after another.

One grinned and bit Scrooge. He rushed too fast and was landed on the face by a metal beetle. The miniature maintenance claw array mounted under the underworld scarab hugged the dog's face. Once the mass-energy conversion was activated, The firefly lit up with green light, instantly eroding the head of Biting Scrooge, and the little headless monster took a step forward and suddenly fell down.

Although in the army sequence of the Necrons, the underworld constructs are lower than the Necron warriors, the space warriors would rather face the immortals and destroyers than face the underworld flying in like a green cloud. Scarab swarm.

If you don't carry a large-scale AOE weapon such as a melta gun, and just rely on power swords and bolters, you will be eaten up by the mechanical insect swarm.

The green-skinned boys jumped around and fought with the underworld scarabs flying in the air. Fu Qinghai was in urgent need of a few less damaged underworld scarab corpses, so he quickly joined the battlefield and chopped up the underworld scarabs with a few swords. Then pocket it.

Ignoring the poor greenskins whose heads were eaten and scratched by the Underworld Scarab, they covered their faces and rolled on the ground wailing. Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian continued to go deep into the tomb world and ran towards the depths of the passage.

…

The war boss jumped down into the crack in the tomb world.

With the partial breakthroughs made by Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian, the Orcs finally made initial progress and were not driven out of the tomb world as easily as last time.

The Tomb Technician's main defense revolved around the laboratory. The War Boss led his green pony boys and strode straight to the laboratory.

Before they passed the corner of the passage, a dazzling bolt of lightning jumped continuously and passed through the bodies of several green-skinned boys. There was a "crackling" sound, and the flesh and blood were melted by the lightning, leaving only a hole in the waist.

The war boss's eyes widened in shock.

If it knew about the Necrons, it would know that what it was about to face was a Tesla weapon.

…

Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian went around in the complicated maze-like passage, turned countless turns, and bypassed countless obstacles. Finally, they used their lightsabers to cut through the last black stone door. Finally, the two came to a vast and empty space.

Even though there were wild orcs acting as cannon fodder to attract firepower, Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian still went through a lot of trouble to get here.

The two of them stared at the slowly rotating device in the middle of the empty space.

It was an inverted tetrahedron surrounded by pitch-black living rocks. It was larger than the main building of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Triflex Wing Base, and its countless complex lines shone with the brilliance of energy. The dull, dark and mysterious light gathered in the open frame of things, the kind of faint green light that can be seen everywhere in the tomb world.

"Is this the Tombstone Gate?"

Fu Qinghai frowned and murmured to himself.

My eyes are fixed on this huge device with a strange shape. The scenery in front of me is like some kind of optical illusion. The space is twisting and turning, time is flowing in a vortex, the lines of the object seem to be extending and closing on their own, and hard-cut edges and corners are formed. The angle of mutual collapse.

After only watching it for a few seconds, Fu Qinghai suddenly felt dizzy, nauseated and nauseated. He couldn't help but bend down, forced himself to look away, and gasped with his mouth open.

Fu Qinghai didn't even try to understand this device. He just tried to keep the shape of the thing in his mind and remember it with the photographic memory of Tony Stark's electronic soul backup.

Unexpectedly, in the sea of ​​​​thinking where inspiration was constantly exploding like bubbles, the most powerful plug-in that once assisted Fu Qinghai in cracking countless black technologies and invented many new equipments, that person who once understood, innovated, improved, and iterated endlessly. The incompetent brain plug-in, at this moment, seems to be overloaded and shut down. The sea of ​​​​thought is not only boiling, it is almost evaporating.

"Ahhhh..."

Old man Hu Xian turned around and was surprised to see Fu Qinghai covering his helmet and screaming in pain.

"Green hills, green hills!"

The old man couldn't help but put his hand on Fu Qinghai's shoulder armor and asked eagerly:

"What do you see?"

Old man Hu Xian also saw that mysterious device, but he just seemed to watch a kaleidoscope illusion, and had a slightly nauseating feeling like 3D dizziness. Then he was fine, but he didn't expect that Fu Qinghai's reaction was so big.

"me……"

Fu Qinghai wrinkled his face and gritted his teeth. The severe pain in his brain like waves made him speechless.

"Yes, that's the Tombstone Gate."

On the left side of the vast space, accompanied by the clicking sound of metal joints hitting the black stone, a cold mechanical sound came.

A huge mechanical centipede, dozens of meters long, leisurely crawled out from under the mysterious device.

Tomb stalker.

The metal plates all over the body are joined together to form a long centipede body. The thick and sharp jointed limbs hit the hard black stone ground, making a scalp-numbing, detailed and neat clicking sound. Six green mechanical compound eyes, in the middle It is a round mouthpart that rotates with gears, and two long metal whiskers like beetle tentacles stand back from the top of its head.

Next to the insect-like head of the Tomb Stalker are two long green tubes. After Fu Qinghai's introduction, old man Hu Xian was already familiar with the Necrons. The two transparent tubes surging with green energy are linear acceleration chambers. Gauss weapons logo.

The tomb stalker easily climbed up the wall and slowly crawled around Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian. He made the same sound as the tomb technician from his mouth and laughed:

"What a smart human being. Not only did he see through my plan, he even...haha, he even tried to understand the existence of the Tombstone Gate."

The tomb technician controlled the tomb stalker and made a squeaking sound:

"I have to admit that he is indeed a rare individual among low-level creatures like humans. He is so smart, so smart... that he dares to try to understand the most magical creation of our Necron."

"I kind of want to open his brain and find out."

Fu Qinghai covered his head, enduring the immense pain, thinking that this was beyond my control.

Tony Stark's electronic soul backup will have great curiosity and desire when seeing any technological creation, and subconsciously try to record, analyze and understand.

Fortunately in the past, Fu Qinghai relied on this ability to become a powerful technical sergeant and build countless advanced equipment.

But now, because of this ability, he is in the pain of burning thoughts.

What is Tombstone Gate?

To introduce Tombstone Gate, the first thing to talk about is the Webway.

The galactic highway project built by the Old Ones, the common creators of the Eldar, Orcs and Space Apes, the overlords of the ancient universe, and a race with the pinnacle of technology and magic, is the "Netway".

A method that can safely, stably and quickly cross infinite distances without resorting to subspace navigation and achieve faster-than-light navigation.

The Webway, a creation of the Old Ones, is the pinnacle of Warhammer 40K cosmic engineering. During the War in Heaven, the Ancient Saints used the haunted entrances and exits of the Webway to send troops everywhere, and once defeated the Necrons until they could no longer take care of themselves. Even though tens of thousands of years had passed, the Ancient Saints disappeared, the Necrons were dormant, and the Webway , is still the only barrier the Dark Eldar have against Slaanesh's harvesting of souls, and is still a great project that the Emperor is willing to understand and study even if he abandons the Great Crusade.

That's right, the Emperor appointed Horus as Warmaster, and then he hid under the palace of Terra to conduct experiments. He was studying how to use the webway left by the ancient saints to free mankind from long-term navigation of the warp. and reliance on subspace communications.

The Necrons are said to be the technological ceiling in the Warhammer 40K universe, but what is very embarrassing is that as a race without psykers, the Necrons do not have the means to travel faster than the speed of light. If the inertial engine is simply a competition for efficiency, It is still not as efficient as the subspace jump of the Human Empire.

It was not until the end of the War in Heaven that the Necrons invented the Tombstone Gate, a special device that could open a gap in the Webway. With the help of the Tombstone Gate, the Necrons could also board the cosmic highway of their mortal enemies, the Old Ones - the Web. After all, this allowed the Necrons to gain true super-light speed navigation capabilities, otherwise the title of "technological ceiling" would be somewhat untrue.

The tomb technician saw Fu Qinghai's miserable condition through the tomb stalker's mechanical compound eyes, and he was immediately very proud, feeling a sense of superiority of a higher race.

The frustration caused by Fu Qinghai taking away the Pym Ray Pistol, a scientific research achievement, and Fu Qinghai seeing through the plot and turning an army against him, etc., have all been slightly relieved.

"Ah...fuck."

Fu Qinghai held his helmet with one hand, cursed in a low voice, and stood upright little by little from the stiffness.

When Fu Qinghai finally recovered from the pain and slowly raised his head, he looked at the mechanical centipede crawling slowly in the distance and said:

"What are you so proud of? You are just thieves who stole the function of the Webway. Besides, I can't understand the existence of the Webway and the Tombstone Gate. How can you understand it?"

"Uh, you...what do you mean?"

The tomb technician's words were filled with surprise and uncertainty for a moment.

Fu Qinghai took a breath, calmed down the slightly relieved pain, and sneered:

"Did you really invent the technology of destroying and utilizing the Webway, the Tombstone Gate? Was it taught to you by Nyadrazasa?"

After hearing Fu Qinghai's words, the Tomb Stalker's smooth crawling movements were obviously stuck, and the Tomb Technician's voice was trembling a little:

"You...how do you know His name? No, no, no, you are not allowed to mention the name of that sinful being!"

"snort."

Fu Qinghai snorted, raised his chin, and said loudly:

"Not only do I have to mention it, I have to shout it!"

"The Star God, it is the Star God, Niadrazasa the Burner, taught you the techniques to break through the Webway and use the Webway. It was the Star God who helped you win the war in heaven. You did not invent the Tombstone Gate. Remember it for me!"

"Ah...heinous crime! Human being, you are challenging my bottom line, blasphemy!!"

Fu Qinghai's words evoked the painful memories of the Necron clan, and revealed the deep scars of the Necron clan - the ancient grudges and grudges with the Star God.

Fu Qinghai ignored the crazy tomb technician at all, and led old man Hu Xian to turn around and walk towards the door of the tombstone, towards the mysterious and huge device that was constantly rotating and changing.

"No, you are pretending! You don't dare to do this. You don't know how to operate the Tombstone Gate at all. You will get lost in the Webway!"

The tomb technician's shout came from the mouth of the tomb stalker.

The orcs of the Deathskull clan once hijacked the Tombstone Gate to transport troops. Fu Qinghai guessed that they might have relied on the orcs' unique power of thinking. Fu Qinghai naturally did not have this ability.

Without navigation and maps about the Webway, anyone as powerful as the Primarch would be lost in the immeasurably huge labyrinth of the Webway. For example, Fu Qinghai's Primarch later hunted down the Dark Eldar and entered the Web. Chagatai Khan never came out again.

Fu Qinghai turned back confidently, took one last look at the tomb stalker in the distance, and said with a smile:

"I didn't know how to use it before, but now, someone taught me how to use it."

After saying that, Fu Qinghai took the old man Hu Xian's arm and resolutely stepped between the two huge dark green living stone pillars and stepped into the green glorious curtain of vicious hostility.

The two figures disappeared.
