Chapter 45 - Solo Leveling Legion

After adjusting the system panel to the illustration interface, Marcus began to summon terrifying Tyranid warbeasts one by one.

Hormagaunt, Gun Worm, Tyranid Warrior x3, Tyranid Warrior (Venom Cannon type), Tyranid Warrior (Strangling Vine type), Exocrine, venomthrope, Neurothrope, Lictor.

Aside from the Exocrine, which Marcus temporarily didn't summon because its excessive size would block the corridor, the other eleven types of Tyranid warbeasts Marcus had collected since his transmigration appeared in the corridor.

This was the first time Marcus had attempted to summon so many Tyranid warbeasts. Looking at the well-formed Tyranid legion before him, Marcus nodded with satisfaction. With the help of this legion, his chances of victory against the neurothrope would greatly increase.

Leading the Tyranid warbeasts to a steel door, Marcus pressed the open button without hesitation. As the door slowly opened, a powerful and suffocating psionic aura instantly permeated the area. Marcus immediately locked onto the zoanthrope floating in mid-air, which was continuously firing psionic attacks at the Imperial Guard on the bridge through a large architectural gap.

Beneath the zoanthrope's bloated and massive body, at least a thousand Tyranid were guarding it, mixed with dozens of Tyranid Warriors. The dense Tyranid almost filled the hall.

All the Tyranid present noticed the sound of the door opening and turned their heads in unison to look at Marcus and the Tyranid warbeasts at the entrance. The next second, accompanied by a shriek from the zoanthrope, the Tyranid surged towards the entrance like a tide.

Upon seeing so many Tyranid, Marcus immediately opened his system panel and summoned the Exocrine.

"Boom!"

Accompanying the massive sound of the Exocrine's colossal body landing, Marcus issued a command to the Tyranid warbeasts he had summoned.

"Kill them all!"

Upon receiving Marcus's command, all the Tyranid warbeasts summoned by Marcus roared towards the sky. The neurothrope in the team quickly ascended, casting a psionic shield around itself and beginning to use mind power to buff the other Tyranid warbeasts.

The Exocrine, the largest in the team and serving as both a tank and damage dealer, immediately had its eyes glow red. After a roar, it charged towards the dense Tyranid in the area with an unstoppable momentum. Wherever the Exocrine passed, countless Hormagaunt and Gun Worm were directly crushed into broken limbs and fragments.

Beside it, Tyranid Warriors wielding boneblades and whips followed, responsible for clearing out the half-crippled Tyranid that were not directly crushed by the Exocrine. The lictor and venomthrope, responsible for stealth assassination, immediately locked onto the Tyranid Warriors in the swarm ahead, infiltrated the darkness, and began their hunt.

Tyranid Warriors wielding ranged symbiotic weapons remained in place under Marcus's command. Using devourers and venom cannons, they continuously attacked the zoanthrope floating in the sky, trying their best to deplete its mind power.

At the same time, Marcus was not idle. The moment he saw the zoanthrope, Marcus immediately activated the Starfire in his chest. He released the Energy Feedback that he had already prepared.

The moment the skill was activated, a dark blue psionic rift immediately appeared above the zoanthrope's head. Immediately, an extremely powerful suction force, targeting the psionic energy within the zoanthrope below, erupted from the rift. The Enhanced Lictor's originally massive psionic reserves instantly surged into the rift above like a flood.

Not only that, as the zoanthrope's psionic energy continuously drained away, another effect of Energy Feedback also began to manifest. The zoanthrope's bloated body began to collapse continuously as its psionic energy flowed away. The already scarce chitinous carapace, under the effect of internal structural collapse, dispersed into a pile of black dust. The flesh on the Enhanced Lictor's body also began to slowly dissipate into a cloud of bloody smoke.

The effect of Energy Feedback was completely beyond Marcus's expectations! Having sustained such immense damage, even the zoanthrope, which originally lacked individual thought, couldn't help but let out a painful shriek. It seemed to be stimulated by this shriek; the eyes of the Tyranid originally guarding the zoanthrope all glowed red. Then, with an even fiercer assault, they surged towards Marcus, the culprit.

Seeing that his attack had succeeded, Marcus was not idle either. The hellgun in his hand had already been adjusted to maximum output, and a thick, scorching laser beam immediately flew towards the zoanthrope. Although this laser shot was still blocked by the psionic shield around the zoanthrope, Marcus could clearly feel that the opponent's mind power was already less than one-tenth of its original! It was even weaker than the dual neurothropes Marcus had faced before!

Without any hesitation, Marcus again raised the hellgun in his hand and continuously pulled the trigger. And behind him, the plasma pistol also fired a fully charged plasma orb under the effect of mind power. The laser beam and the plasma orb hit the psionic shield around the zoanthrope one after another. The plasma orb crashed into the psionic shield, bursting into a dazzling blue flame.

Through the blue flame, Marcus could clearly see that tiny cracks had appeared in the psionic shield around the zoanthrope! With a thought, the psychic flying knife circling around Marcus immediately shot out, then dispersed, attacking the zoanthrope from all directions. Among them, the red ork choppa was driven to its extreme speed by Marcus using mind power, even leaving afterimages.

The next second, all the flying knives simultaneously struck the psionic shield. Marcus, at this time, was rapidly pulling the trigger of the hellgun in his hand while frantically pushing the psychic flying knife, completely disregarding the side effects of overusing mind power.

After countless training sessions, Marcus's mastery of mind power had advanced to a new level. Although he hadn't reached the point of crushing an enemy's head from a distance, at least in mind power manipulation of objects, he had developed it to a proficient level.

The sharp red ork choppa, driven by Marcus's reckless exertion, unleashed an extremely immense force. This force concentrated at the tip of the blade, and after a brief stalemate, it violently pierced through the psionic shield around the zoanthrope! Then, like a ghost, it quickly drilled into the zoanthrope's body, beginning to cut and destroy.

The zoanthrope, already in agony from the Energy Feedback, immediately couldn't hold on and collapsed weakly to the ground. Even the psionic shield around its body began to flicker on and off.

Seeing the excellent attack effect, Marcus did not stop his actions. The remaining ordinary alloy flying knives, under Marcus's control, continuously attacked the residual psionic shield. Finally, after dozens of maximum-power hellgun shots and more than a dozen fully charged plasma orb bombardments, the psionic shield surrounding the zoanthrope, after a crisp "snap" sound, quickly shattered and vanished without a trace.
