Chapter 450 Goddess of Life: Woohoo, you... are finally here!
As the demonic power approached, the air in the area became extremely hot and humid, and a foul-smelling wind blew in from afar.
A faint elegy was brought to the fore.
Such a strong demonic aura made everyone's heart tighten.
"What you fear will come true. You really can't open the champagne in the middle of a meal."
Ron looked in the direction of the evil wind and saw the pouring, unnatural storm.
All the swollen plants swayed in the rain, as if cheering.
"Sir, this must be a big one..."
Grand Master Ke Wen quickly flipped through the forbidden atlas, looking for relevant information based on the characteristics of the demon before it descended.
This will allow the Grey Knights to better cope.
Ron frowned, looking quite worried: "Yes, it looks like he's not going to be easy to deal with..."
That Nurgle being even has its own special effects and BGM when he appears, so he is probably not that weak. At least he is one of the top Nurgle demons.
He was not worried that he and his men would not be able to deal with the impending demon, but he was afraid of wasting time.
If the delay is too long, once the battle with Father Nurgle is over, it will be difficult to rescue the Goddess of Life.
"A morbid storm that hovers forever, a rain of elegy and laughter, a flood of hatred that drowns the earth, leaving behind endless filth..."
Ke Wen chanted a complicated spell and found the record of the demon in the forbidden atlas.
Such abominations are recorded as frequently occurring in the agricultural world.
Amidst famine and hardship, local farmers prayed for abundance, rain, and food.
That being would hear these desperate prayers and come with storms and floods, causing livestock to give birth to deformed babies, the land to become slippery, and the ears of wheat to swell, twist, and scream.
The entire world will eventually be covered in filthy rain, and all humans will turn into bloated zombies in despair.
His voice was grave: "That fellow called himself Rotigus the Rainmaker, Second Favored of Nurgle, the Rainfather and the Bountiful One, and he destroyed at least seven hundred civilized worlds.
Over the past thousands of years, nearly a hundred Grey Knights, including a Grand Master, have died at his hands!"
Those at the top of the list of Chaos daemons are all guilty of bloodshed, and are the beings that the Grey Knights have vowed to hunt down and destroy throughout their lives.
Unfortunately, almost no brotherhood can do this, and even expulsion is extremely difficult and often costs countless lives.
But now it's different.
The Seventh Brotherhood possesses a large number of sacred weapons and has long been hungry and thirsty, waiting for the demons to come and die.
Koven looked at the savior without the slightest fear: "My lord, leave this to the Grey Knights. The Emperor's pure blade will destroy that demon."
He has decided to lead the Grey Knights to stay and fight against the Rainfather and resist these evil abominations.
Let the main force continue to move forward.
The Grey Knights are eager to challenge the Rainfather, Nurgle's second-favored son, who has brought endless suffering to the Empire.
Ron looked at the Grey Knights with a hint of hesitation.
He knew very well how powerful the Rain Father was.
But in view of the Grey Knights' firm attitude, they agreed to let them stay behind to cover their retreat.
What's more, the Grey Knights are equipped with a large number of sacred weapons, so their chances of winning are quite high, and there shouldn't be too many tragic endings.
"Kewen, I leave this to you."
Ron spoke earnestly, full of trust: "You only need to resist these abominable demons for a while. Don't make too many sacrifices unless necessary."
Koven nodded firmly. "We will carry out your orders. Please trust in the Grey Knights' exorcism skills."
He felt that the Lord Savior still underestimated the Grey Knights, and now the Seventh Brotherhood would be confident in destroying Rainfather.
Forge glory with that evil and hateful life!
After all, the Grey Knights are equipped with so many sacred weapons, so they must achieve battle results that match them.
"Seventh Brotherhood, prepare for battle!"
Ke Wen's face was resolute and his bright red cloak fluttered.
He picked up the gorgeous, life-size Demon Hunting Hammer and stepped forward to block the Savior and the others.
The Grey Knights loaded their sacred weapons into their launchers and struck the ground with their spears, psychic energy gleaming within them.
Then he set up a special exorcism formation: "In the name of the Emperor, purify all evil!"
They are so fearless and holy.
The unnatural, morbid storm was approaching, and the rain made a crisp sound as it hit the heavy silver armor covered with spells and holy relics.
But the Grey Knights remained unmoved.
They had already seen the dense, singing demons in the storm, and the flesh-like shadow holding a gnarled scepter.
That is the Rain Father, Rotigus the Rainmaker.
When Rotigus received the news that the Garden of Nurgle had been attacked, he returned immediately, bringing back Tempest and Nurgle's army.
Boom boom boom——
The seven Great Unclean Ones who served as the vanguard arrived first.
They were soaked in dirty rainwater, and filthy plants grew around them, overlooking the human warriors in front of them.
Sizzle~
Ke Wen was wrapped in arcs of psychic energy and was about to launch an attack.
The Seventh Brothers will follow the Savior's instructions, eliminate the evil and gain supreme glory.
roar!
A great unclean one roared and rushed over, like a giant meat bomb.
Ke Wen's expression didn't change much. Such a hateful enemy was not worth his vigilance.
He raised the Hammer of Wrath, the sacred weapon within the hammer loaded.
This is a special modified warhammer. Every strike can emit divine light. It is a long-range sacred melee weapon!
However, just as Ke Wen was about to swing the hammer, his heart suddenly tightened.
In an instant, a roaring shadow suddenly passed by his eyes, and hit the Great Unclean One like a dump truck and sent him flying.
ah--
The screams of the Great Unclean One suddenly faded away.
It was a large, ground-moving Hell Dragon, more like a combination of a bronze bull and a Hell Dragon, and a powerful siege demon engine.
Immediately afterwards, there were loud shouts.
The leader of the Dread Legion drove the siege engine again and shouted excitedly: "Brothers, come quickly, there are many Nurgle demons here!"
Then came more responses.
"Diablo, hurry up, it will be too late!"
"Hurrah!"
Under the surprised gaze of Ke Wen and others, a large group of fear warriors rushed over.
The light of the teleportation array also lit up.
The large Chaos Dreadnoughts and Chaos Centurion Armor of the Legion of Terror landed with a loud bang, running at full speed, as if they were rushing to be reincarnated.
They watched as a flaming, winged Assault Centurion charged towards the Great Unclean One.
He immediately used the Iron Mountain Lean technique to knock the opponent down.
The fear warriors had been holding back for too long. After receiving the order to fight freely from the Dark Prince, they searched everywhere for traces of demons with red eyes.
That's nearly 100,000 fully armed terror warriors who are in debt with blood points.
It's so terrifying!
Koven had no chance to attack and could only watch as the Dread Warriors cooperated in combat and skillfully knocked down several Great Unclean Ones.
Then they were subjected to an inhumane saturation beating.
A great unclean one roared and tried to crawl out of the crowd, but was dragged back.
Someone is here to steal the monster!
Ke Wen and others looked at each other in confusion.
They were robbed of their opponents by the Legion of Dread right in front of them. It seems that they don't need to deal with these Nurgle vanguard demons themselves.
Strictly speaking, these warriors under the Dark Prince can also be considered one of the Empire's allies.
At least the Imperial troops have received orders not to clash with the Legion of Dread unless necessary, so as not to provoke these crazy guys.
Make the war situation more dangerous.
"Let's go deal with Rainfather!"
Coven said so.
Today, the most powerful abominations are still there, opponents are plentiful, and raiding the enemy's core is also the Grey Knights' forte.
After all, the Chaos Demon can summon endless armies to consume the strength of the Imperial warriors, and a head-on battle will most likely cause unacceptable damage.
Therefore, the Grey Knights often choose to teleport and board into the enemy's core to deal with the Chaos Daemon.
This will help to disintegrate the demon army more quickly.
Just as Coven and other Grey Knights were constructing a new teleportation array, an unnatural storm broke out.
"That fool Ku'gath actually allowed so many enemies into the Garden of Nurgle..."
Tigros frowned slightly as he looked at the Vanguard Demon's frustration.
He always looked down on the first favorite who devoured his father's strongest plague. That guy was too weak and could not accomplish anything great.
The other party was able to sit in that position only by relying on the grace of his loving father.
In fact, Kugath's strength is far inferior to his own.
Now the other party has suffered an unprecedented setback, but fortunately I am still able to save the situation.
"These enemies are still unable to resist my flood of filth..."
Tigros opened his rotten mouth, and maggots kept falling out.
From the vortex of the storm behind him, a steady stream of Nurgle demons stepped out, and filthy energy surged.
He brought back the army from the Garden of Nurgle, as well as thirty-three Great Unclean Ones and seventy-seven Great Daemons of Nurgle.
That is not something the Savior's army and the Legion of Terror can resist.
As long as he can stop the Savior's troops, or even take the lives of the Savior and the Imperial Regent, he will receive the unparalleled favor of Nurgle's benevolent father.
As for his father's current condition, he was not very worried.
After the great Lord of Plague absorbed the divine plague, his strength became even stronger and he was able to resist the attacks of the Blood God and the Lord of Change.
At least you won't end up in complete failure.
This is the realm of plague. Perhaps He will be able to repel the Blood God and the Lord of Change immediately, and devote His energy to killing the invaders in the Garden of Nurgle.
Before that, he must stop the Savior, the Imperial Regent, and more armies.
So that they don't achieve any of their goals.
Tigras waved his gnarled scepter and intensified the storm, and the flood gradually rose and surged outward.
Just as he was commanding the Nurgle army to attack.
Suddenly, he noticed something stirring in the muddy torrent.
"What?"
The fingers of the Great Unclean One, the Second Favored One, tingled.
He raised his hand and saw a Tyranid gnaw happily, almost burrowing deep into the flesh.
Afterwards, there was even more movement in the flood.
boom--
The pitch-black mutated digging python broke out of the ground and devoured the plague zombies.
"Bugs, it's bugs!"
The Nurgle demons cursed, slapped, or spewed corrupted bile to drive away the Tyranids lurking in the flooded swamps.
But more insects crawled onto these big guys, and they were hungry and tried to eat some fresh carrion.
The Tyranid leader, Lao Ba, brought the Zerg swarm to the buffet!
"These damn bugs..."
Tigroen snorted coldly, crushed the Tyranid Knifeworm in his hand, and used corrupted fel energy to destroy the Hive Tyrant that was rushing towards him.
These enemies are not enough to affect the war situation!
The next second, he was hit on the head with a club.
Waaagh——
That was a green boss.
The Steelfang Greenskins' skilled masters used materials found in the Garden of Nurgle to build many dirty wooden flying machines, which were loaded with Greenskin troops.
Bombs rained down, bombarding Nurgle's army.
Afterwards, the greenskins jumped down one after another like dumplings and fought with the Nurgle demons.
That's not all.
There was also a bloody flame coming from another direction.
"Blood sacrifice to the Blood God!"
The cunning and bloodthirsty Baal, with half of Khorne's army, attacked from the flank of Nurgle's army.
The army of Tzeentch also arrived through teleportation, and the crows burned a large number of plague zombies with colorful psychic flames.
"My dear father…"
Tigras was a little confused when he heard the shouts and screams coming from all directions, as well as the troops of Khorne and Tzeentch spreading beyond the horizon.
It seems like I am surrounded. There are more enemies in the Garden of Nurgle than I imagined!
But he had no time to think about this, as several powerful enemies had already attacked him.
The second favorite wielded his gnarled staff, summoning more corrupted plants to fight.
"The Emperor!"
Similar exclamations were heard at the same time.
Ke Wen looked at the battlefield in the distance and felt a little numb.
Before the Grey Knights' teleportation array was completed, the Nurgle army fell into chaos under the attacks of many enemies.
It seems like there is nothing for them here.
"What should we do?"
The Arbitrator inquired, his teleportation psychic energy gathering within him and about to be released.
"Let me think..." When Ke Wen was hesitating whether to continue to participate in the battle and was about to make a decision, the voice of the savior came.
"Let the Grey Knights withdraw."
The Savior gave an order over the communicator: "The Grey Knights are no longer needed in this battle. You must continue to keep up with the main force."
Ke Wen sighed deeply and obeyed the savior's command: "Everyone retreat!"
Afterwards, the Grey Knights broke their formation and chased after the Savior.
Ke Wen felt a little regretful.
The Seventh Brotherhood had finally arrived in the demon's territory, but so far they had done nothing except taking a combat stance once.
Quite uncomfortable.
Afterwards, he led the Grey Knights on a long outing with the Savior.
…
I don't know how long it took.
The army led by the Savior and the Imperial Regent finally arrived at their destination - the Garden of Life.
"Fortunately, this area hasn't been severely affected by the Divine Plague."
Ron looked at the Garden of Life not far away and could vaguely see the lush green plants.
Apart from a little wilting, there are no major problems.
Since there are almost no demons and corrupted plants outside the Garden of Life, and it has been cleared by the Legion of Fear, it is like a natural "firewall".
Greatly reduced the impact of the divine plague.
What's more, life energy has some restraint on the plague.
The fog of the divine plague seemed to have consciousness and went to places with more chaotic life.
It simply realized that it was not cost-effective to devour this place and it would consume too much plague energy.
That is determined by the underlying genes of the plague virus, which naturally desires more spread.
Therefore, the garden was only slightly affected.
"Lao Ji, you guys stay here and keep watch. I can go in by myself."
After confirming that there was no danger inside, Ron decided to go in alone.
He was also worried that so many people entering would cause resistance from the Goddess of Life.
"If there's any danger, call us anytime."
Guilliman nodded and warned, "You should remain vigilant. You are approaching an Eldar xenos deity, not one worthy of too much trust."
"I understand."
Ron didn't explain anything.
He knew that the Imperial Regent was wary of non-human life, especially those who considered themselves gods.
But there is no doubt.
The human empire needs to establish a relationship with such an Eldar god in order to gain more benefits.
Soon, the Savior walked along the garden path and entered the mysterious garden alone.
Although he had already explored deep into the cave several times at night.
The troops of the Savior and the Imperial Regent also received orders.
They need to remain on guard to prevent enemy sneak attacks, and at the same time rotate to rest and replenish supplies as much as possible to restore their spirit and physical strength.
The corrupting fel energy of the Garden of Nurgle is too strong, causing the warriors to remain in a state of high tension at all times.
If you don't rest for a long time, it may cause spiritual corruption.
"Be alert, what else is there to be alert about..."
Grand Master Ke Wen was a little depressed as he still hadn't seen any enemies along the way.
Whether it was the lush green grass around or the charred and empty area in the distance, no chaotic life was seen.
All chaotic life was devoured by some plague that swept through.
There was no trace of anything, only dead silence.
???
Suddenly, Ke Wen smelled a hint of fragrance.
He followed the scent and saw that the soldiers of the Sons of Man Legion not far away had already set up a large pot on the grass and taken out a lot of ingredients.
Some soldiers also spread tablecloths on the grass.
This special force carries a full set of relevant equipment and tableware wherever they go.
"Emperor, we're really here for a picnic! This is the domain of the Chaos God!"
Ke Wen's heart was screaming.
This was nothing like he had imagined.
When the Savior invited the Grey Knights to fight in the Garden of Nurgle, he was full of anticipation and agreed resolutely.
Even if I die in there, it doesn't matter!
Because the Grey Knights' creed is to use faith as armor and dedication as a shield.
The Seventh Brotherhood came to this demonic land to dedicate their lives to the Emperor and purify the demons.
In this situation, what's the point of coming here to travel and broaden your horizons?
Something seemed to be broken in the heart of the Grey Knight Grand Master, and the aura of the most terrifying and evil evil god's domain was no longer there.
At this moment, Datong, who was passionately stirring the food, noticed Kewen's gaze and called out:
"Your Excellency, Grand Master, please bring the brothers here to eat something. Only when they are full can they have the strength to fight.
Our food is very nutritious!"
Koven hesitated for a moment, but still led the Grey Knights over.
Brother Barrel was right. After a long march, the Grey Knights did need to replenish their energy.
Their consumption in this devilish land is greater than that in the real universe.
The armor on Koven and the others was heavy, so they couldn't sit down like other Space Marines. They could only stand and eat the food provided by the Son of Man.
But the food was delicious enough and high in calories, so they couldn't help but eat it and praise it.
Ke Wen swallowed another delicious sausage, which had a soft and smooth texture.
It made him unable to stop.
"Brother Datong, what ingredients are these made of? Why have I never eaten them before?"
Coven inquired.
"That's my precious trophy. Even the Lord Savior likes it."
Datong was quite proud and handed another piece to the Grand Master: "This is the most delicious meat from a mutated Nurgle beast, the Great Unclean One. It is the most precious ingredient I have ever handled."
The Grey Knights, who were currently showing off wildly, froze when they heard these words.
"The Emperor…"
Ke Wen held the half-bitten sausage, trembling all over and putting on a mask of pain.
Grey Knights...dirty!
…
Inside the Garden of Life.
Ron followed the path to the deepest part of the garden. The plants here had become withered, and he could faintly feel the emotions of fear and anticipation.
It seems that amidst the upheavals in the Garden of Nurgle.
The goddess of life who likes to cry is also in a bad mood.
"Ron!"
Suddenly, a fragrant figure rushed over and hugged him: "Woo woo woo, you're finally here!"
The goddess of life, Aisha, hugged Ron and sobbed.
After receiving the message from Ron that he was coming to the Garden of Nurgle to rescue her, Aisha was full of anticipation.
But due to the chaos in Nurgle Garden, she could hardly find Ron's presence, no new information came, and there was no way to contact him.
After waiting for a long time, she thought something had happened to the other party.
After much hesitation, Aisha decided to go out and look for Ron.
But the outbreak of the divine plague at this time really scared her. It was extremely malicious to life, and there was almost no possibility of purification and recovery.
Now, she finally waited for her savior!
"Who is it!?"
At this time, Father Nurgle, who was fighting in the Black Fortress, noticed the changes in the Garden of Life.
A certain existence has stepped into his own forbidden land!
