The Brain-Eater Warmaster
The second, third, and fifth Chapter of "Shadow of Order," the "Void Walker" Titan Legions, and the "Mordian Iron Guard" fought against the Rangdan army.
Ten Legion Library were scattered across the battlefield, which stretched for a hundred kilometers. They channeled Psionic Energy tiny crystal devices in their hands, causing the metal objects within the devices to hum.
The crystal device vibrated, and hundreds of fly-like creatures took flight.
The Old Ones beings were designed to fly, Teleport everything they observed to a screen within a 20-kilometer radius.
The Spy Fly were originally two-way communication devices. In order to change the function of the Spy Fly, the Librarian used special runes to engrave mysterious prayers on the eye screen, so that they could conduct one-way reconnaissance instead of projecting holographic projections.
The Spy Fly flies to the battlefield, transmitting the captured images to its spectral display.
The Librarian members stared at the mosaic micro-screen in front of them, their eyes projected onto the same mosaic micro-screen.
On the micro-screen, hundreds of crowded tiny images illuminate, resembling a polyhedral eye structure.
Librarian use Psionic Energy to instantly recognize and process images.
They marked the Rangdan Overlord as a rune and uploaded it to the Tactical Network.
To ensure coverage of the entire region, ten Librarian were deployed, although their coverage areas overlapped somewhat.
However, thanks to the Simulacrum Sanctum within the transport aircraft, all information is calculated, processed, and updated in real time.
Similarly, the Tech Sergeant controlled fifty Golden Garuda, overlooking the battlefield and feeding back information to the Simulacrum Sanctum.
Thierry Viera and Saisak looked at the screen in front of them and gave the order, "Attack!"
The Shadow of Order of the 8th Legion led four regiments of swordsmen from the Kaser Auxilia in an attack against the Xenos.
After passing Nimrod's test, Pierre Wright became a "Warrior".
He returned to the 8th Legion from the Honor Guard before the outbreak of the war on Spiral- Morse Prime, and was subsequently promoted to adjutant.
Pierre led fifty Shadow of Order in a charge toward their assigned target, the Rangdan Overlord, who was closest to his group.
The shadows of the Kaser Shadow of Order drew their Force Sword forged by the Kaser blacksmiths, infusing them with their meager Psionic Energy.
As the sword trembled slightly, they became one with the blade.
Pierre and his five captains, all "Warrior," acted as the spearhead, swiftly cutting into the slave army.
The "Warrior" wielded his Force Sword, sweeping it like a whirlwind.
The long blade sliced through the horde of enemies in front of him, cutting them in two.
As Pierre led his team in the assault, he kept an eye on the runes reflected in his helmet, while the Spy Fly and the golden Mechanical Eagle remained locked onto Rangdan Overlord.
Five arrows, unstoppable and swift, arrived before the Rangdan Overlord.
The Rat-Headed Overlord let out a piercing scream, and the howling Psionic Energy storm made the bones of the Shadow of Order spasm.
In their eyes, they saw the raging storm of ice cones approaching, as if they were struggling through a blizzard.
Pierre and the five captains simultaneously ascended to the first level of the Thelema Mindset, and the "True Will" swept away the mental illusion created by the Rangdan Psyker.
Pierre, in the center, flicked his wrist Force Sword danced.
The "Ganfaso Style" of the "Elvira" sword technique forms an 8-shaped sword flower, Force Sword deflects the green Psionic Energy light bullet released by the Rangdan Overlord.
Taking advantage of the moment when the Rangdan Overlord was distracted by the dazzling light, the five "Warrior" rushed past Pierre from his side.
They donned "War Mask," their anger at the Xenos enslaving humanity and at their fellow fighters being put in danger transforming into power.
The Force Sword struck the individual's energy shield with the Thunder.
As his personal energy shield shattered, Pierre swiftly rushed in front of Rangdan Overlord, thrusting his Force Sword forward.
The Warrior's Death Strike - "Elka Style"!
The Overlord had just raised his hand, and before he could even release his Psionic Energy shield, the tip of his Force Sword longsword pierced into the rat's head.
Pierre let his longsword linger for a moment, the blade crackling against the Overlord's head, until the light in his eyes was completely extinguished, before withdrawing the sword.
Saisak led the First Company of the First Chapter, hacking and slashing through the Rangdan army, his blood splattering onto his Mark I Thunder Armor.
As a veteran of the "Unification Wars," Saisak witnessed the twilight of the Eleventh Legion as the Reapers.
He resisted the new helmet, secretly treasured the medal awarded to him by Horus Lupercal, and often stroked the "Reapers" emblem he had painted himself.
Saisak was preoccupied with the past; he disliked using his brain in war to find loopholes.
After Howard Fender became the Chapter Master, he felt both resentful and somewhat fortunate.
He no longer needed to think about anything; he could simply enjoy the battle.
Saisak knew that as long as he didn't lose control like he had in the past, he could continue to fight as First Company Captain, leading all the Terran-born Reapers.
To this end, he mastered the "War Mask" through arduous self-cultivation.
Saisak discovered that, after mastering the "War Mask," he could, to some extent, enjoy killing as he had in the past.
Because even while enjoying himself, he maintained the calm mindset of Warrior.
He was both immersed in the killing pleasure brought about by his keen perception of the Shadow of Order and able to drive his body with a detached mindset.
Saisak wielded his Chainsword, cutting his way through the human slaves.
The roar of the engine made his body tremble slightly.
Blood and flesh splattered onto his helmet, seeping through the grille and hitting his nostrils.
Saisak took a deep, satisfying breath; the strong smell of blood made him move even faster.
He subconsciously veered slightly off the route closest to his target Overlord in order to enjoy more carnage.
When Saisak's armor was stained red with blood, he seemed to return to his time as the Reapers.
Overwhelmed with excitement, he let out an angry roar.
The Shadow of Order sensed his emotions and roared in response, their eyes turning Blood Red.
After his excited roar, Saisak suddenly sensed that the number of human slaves around him had decreased.
The "War Mask" still allowed him to maintain a certain logic of thought, and he soon discovered that thousands of Xenos had appeared in front of him.
At the center of the Xenos is a bizarre creature, nearly four meters tall, about a meter taller than any other Xenos around it.
It was entirely white, and its head was unusually large, about a third the size of its body.
His arms were also strange; his left arm was long and thin, like a python, hanging down to the ground.
He gripped a Crystal Greatsword in his right hand, which gleamed with a blinding light.
Saisak retrieved the relevant information from his memory.
Brain-Eaters!
According to the data distributed by the Primarch, the Rangdan population is one of the three major ethnic groups.
But are Brain-Eaters really that big?
Saisak thought to himself, puzzled.
He didn't stop walking while he was thinking; he was only one kilometer away from the Brain-Eaters.
The Shadow of Order, rushing about, suddenly felt a sharp pain in their brains and a tingling, numb sensation all over their bodies.
Some experienced muscle spasms, some had difficulty breathing and dry throats, and others felt weak and powerless...
Recalling the information issued by the Primarch, Lieutenant Dickson spoke into the company's command channel, "It's Neurotoxin!"
"His physique is unusually tall; he might be Warmaster Rangdan!"
"We should send a message to Father!"
Dickson learned from the documents issued by the Primarch that Rangdan's supreme commander on a certain front was called the Warmaster, and he was the most powerful enemy.
Before the war, the Primarch told all the soldiers that if they found an unusually tall or powerful creature, it might be Rangdan's Warmaster.
Report to Warmaster Rangdan immediately upon discovery.
"No!" Saisak roared with excited fury, his eyes bloodshot.
He's mine!
When Dickson saw Saisak charging straight toward Warmaster Rangdan, he knew he couldn't stop him and immediately sent a message to the Primarch through the communication channel.
By the time Saisak rushed toward the Brain-Eaters, the effects of the Neurotoxin were already manifesting in his physical body.
His superhuman physique showed signs of dehydration, his skin wrinkled like a sheet of paper.
Saisak sensed something, but he didn't stop. He swung his Chainsword and slashed at the tall Xenos in front of him.
The Brain-Eaters raised his right arm and swung the crystal sword.
The two swords clashed, producing a piercing explosion.
Saisak's wrist went numb, and he glanced in surprise at the Brain-Eaters's slender arm.
His reason was quickly overwhelmed by rage, his consciousness began to blur, and the desire to kill began to overwhelm the Warrior's rational thinking.
Saisak roared in fury and launched a ferocious attack on Warmaster Rangdan.
Rangdan Warmaster was on the edge of the battlefield, watching smugly as the cannon fodder slaves wore down the black-armored Warrior, waiting for the enemy lines to show signs of fatigue and weakness.
Unexpectedly, a group of enemies rushed up to him.
Rangdan Warmaster initially thought it was a deliberate surprise attack by the enemy, but when the Brain-Eaters keenly sensed that the human commander was driven by anger, he knew it was just a coincidence.
The Brain-Eaters discovered a glaring weakness in its enemy, and the red line running along his head flashed brightly as Saisak's brain was filled with crimson light.
Saisak launched a frenzied attack, his chaotic strikes, deliberately provoked by the Brain-Eaters, slashing at different parts of the individual's energy shield.
The Brain-Eaters's attacks were more targeted; his crystal blade sliced through the Black Sword Warrior's arm; cleaved open his breastplate, leaving a gash in his chest...
Saisak's skin was cracked and his body was covered in wounds.
"Break your shell!" Saisak roared excitedly, shattering his personal energy shield with a fierce slash.
Just as he was about to launch another attack, he suddenly felt his arm go empty; the arm holding the sword had been severed by the crystal blade.
The Brain-Eaters's other hand was wrapped around Saisak's head.
He opened his mouth wide and bit down on Saisak's head.
The Brain-Eaters's head was flashing with red lines, and he could feel that the food in his mouth was far more delicious than that of the slaves.
Just as he was about to swallow it whole, he suddenly saw a golden light.
The Brain-Eaters sensed that he was being targeted by a powerful creature that terrified him.
