The terrifying vehicle that appeared on the battlefield is called the Plague Crawler. It is a heavy and powerful siege tank. It is also a demon engine. It was created by the demon primarch Mortarion. It is covered with thick armor that kills all enemies.
Armor plates and demonic energy provide them with incredible protection.
The giant cannon is called the Plague Spreading Mortar. It has a huge parabola and a terrifying range. The shells fired at the same time are a combination of high explosives and deadly corrosive spore clouds, causing damage as much as
The Imperial Destroyer Cannon's shells are comparable.
While the disadvantage of this weapon is that it cannot fire at targets closer than the minimum range, its close-range weapons are capable of spraying slime and hail-like viral projectiles at any approaching enemy.
Under the orders, the black muzzles of the plague-spreading mortars pointed at a 45° angle to the sky. After they marched for a while, they suddenly stopped neatly, and then the mortars behind them let out a thundering roar.
.
"Enemy shelling! Take cover!
"
The experienced Dark Eldar officers immediately roared loudly, but the Dark Eldar were more accustomed to mobile combat and guerrilla combat, and most of the soldiers were inexperienced in positional combat. Therefore, when the whistling green "cannonballs" fell from the sky, many conspirators
The samurai was still confused.
As the shells landed, green mushroom clouds rose from the fortress, and violent explosions directly tore apart nearby fortifications, buildings and personnel, but this was not the end.
As the mushroom cloud spread, many surviving Dark Eldar found their armor began to smoke and bubble.
"Poisonous! The smoke is poisonous!"
"Hurry up...ahem! Quickly activate the dispersal device!"
"Save me—save—"
The gas laden with corrosive spores quickly invaded the flesh inside the armor. The Dark Eldar could only watch their flesh rotting, and while screaming hoarsely, they tore off the armor together with their flesh and blood with their hands.
And because the Ada race is naturally resistant to viruses, they often struggle for several minutes or even ten minutes before dying, which greatly affects the morale of the defenders. Fortunately, there are powerful dispersal devices in the fortress. These spores
It was immediately cleaned up by the purification system of the ancient Eldar.
But the nightmare that followed plunged the defenders into greater chaos.
Along with the continuous buzzing overhead, the defenders responsible for defending the sky saw some weird creations.
They have conical bodies, with three huge vortex nozzles on the left and right sides and on the top of the head. In the center of the body is the symbol of the evil god Nurgle, and below are multiple red eyeglasses, like a pair of evil compound eyes, with long hoses in
The fleshy package swayed underneath, as if it was flying with its own intestines.
Various weapons are hung on brackets on the left and right sides of these twisted machines, ranging from plague spray guns to wither grenade launchers and even giant meat grinders.
"Aim at those things! Shoot! Shoot fast!"
Under the urging of the officer, the Dark Eldar in charge of the heavy poison crystal cannon quickly adjusted its direction and began shooting at the buzzing approaching enemy group.
Large swaths of poisonous crystals hit the shells of those machines, creating holes one after another, while the plague drones began to nimbly avoid artillery fire while projecting deadly poisonous ammunition towards the anti-aircraft gun emplacements.
Along with the appearance of the Plague Drones, there are an unknown number of Blight Engines. They shoot and crawl while using thick armor to provide cover for the Plague Marines.
The attack of the Fourteenth Legion was not swift, but it was extremely fierce, like an avalanche, seemingly slow, but unstoppable.
Soon, the first layer of protective walls of the fortress was breached, and the Dark Eldar were forced into an even worse close combat.
"...The honey of life makes the bitterness of immortality so fragrant. Although it only blooms and falls by itself to itself, if the meanest weed is infected with the virus of immortality, it will be nobler than flowers.
many."
While reciting his favorite long poem, Newcraan Lotis turned the last corner of the corridor.
In this place, Ada's screams can be heard everywhere, and the mental pain fills the air like a flood, making the air thick and fragrant, as if those alien souls have decayed under the gaze of a loving father.
Even before he turned the corner, he knew his blood would boil with pleasure at what he saw.
A dozen Cabal warriors were surrounded behind a bunker of toppled statues, their kind scattered and disfigured on the floor like slaughtered animals.
Of course, there are also several damaged corpses of Plague Marines.
The reason why they are able to survive until now is because of the wild beasts they raised.
A group of creatures that flicker in space, shuttle between corpses, feasting on the decaying flesh.
Their dim yellow teeth flashed with an evil light, and their green claws grasped the corpse, tearing apart the flesh under the rotten armor like tender meat.
This creature is called Gomera, a terrifying creature raised by the Dark Eldar. They were born in the nightmares of intelligent creatures, and proliferated like malignant tumors based on the fear in the subspace.
However, Gomera did not come from the whims of the Chaos Evil God or fragments of power. The Imperial Inquisition classified these creatures as subspace creatures rather than demons. They do not have a fixed material form and can alternately shuttle between the material space and the sea of souls.
Suddenly it disappears from the prey, and then delivers a fatal blow from an unexpected place.
This ability to flash means that even in a confined space, you will be attacked by them, and you can even be teleported directly to an enemy starship under the attraction of a psyker or the command of a specific person.
Obviously, the Plague Marines scattered on the ground are their work.
When Newcraan Rotis turned the corner to face them, their dark eyes immediately met his, and the dim light from the silver spikes on their backs tried to evoke hellish visions in his mind.
.
But the master of the colony just laughed, and then a disease messenger next to him stepped forward.
The starlight of hatred squeezed the eyes of the Nurgle wizard, and then he stretched out his arms and released the howling wind of plague from his open hands.
Winds laden with waves of decay creaked and burned in the faces of the two twisted beasts, blasting them away from their prey and sliding them to the bloody floor, causing them to wag their tails in agony and use horrific movements.
The power screamed.
Then the beasts crawled and staggered forward again, leaping towards the bringer of the disease.
As if ignoring those subspace beasts, Newkeran Rotis had turned his attention to the Dark Eldar who were resisting fiercely. The remaining dozen or so remaining defenders raised their poison crystal rifles and shouted loudly.
, shooting around at the same time, as if they were driven crazy by the chaos boiling around them.
Correspondingly, the soldiers of the "Dan Zero" team and the Plague Soldiers who were originally here also started shooting. The heavy weapons in their hands immediately tore apart the bunkers and smashed the bodies behind the bunkers.
