Top-Grade Leijin Alloy Armor, Truly "Strength's" Good
Object
Nimrod issued the order, "Activate your personal energy shield."
The members of the Honor Guard all raised their left hands and pressed the generator activation button on their waists.
The extra disc-shaped energy batteries they carried on their backs lit up, and an invisible shield enveloped their bodies.
After researching Rangdan technology, Gabriel's team achieved a significant result: the personal energy shield.
They replaced Rangdan's Psionic Energy device with an energy battery to power the protective energy shield.
Compared to Rangdan's personal energy shield, the "Shadow of Order" version offers lower protection, but it uses alternative technology and does not require Psionic Energy artisan to create it.
Skilled artisans can create personal energy shields using standardized manufacturing processes.
Personal energy shields have not yet been fully deployed across the entire legion; only about a quarter of the members in each Chapter have been equipped with them, and they are all Royal Court Friar.
Honor Guard members, following the Primarch, receive priority access to equipment.
As they activated their personal energy shields, the Hearthkyn warriors raised their Auto-linked Bolter and fired dazzling beams at the black-armored Warrior.
The Shadow of Order raised their Bolter, and the warriors of the Hearthkyn engaged in a firefight, a hail of bullets filling the space between them.
Both sides' weapons and ammunition are based on the same STC manufacturing process, only differing in the type of ammunition, but both can inflict lethal damage on the other side.
The Hearthkyn warriors discovered that their beams of light stopped about a fist's distance from the black armor before detonating.
The personal energy shield, like an invisible wall, blocked the intense beam of light, constantly swaying.
The explosive projectiles fired by the Shadow of Order slammed into the Hearthkyn's heavy armor.
The first wave of explosive Adamantine Warheads, struck the heavy armor, causing them to stagger.
The Shadow of Order discovered that a single bomb attack was insufficient to shatter the thick armor of those smaller enemies.
[The heavy armor provides excellent defense.]
They aimed at the spot where the first attack had struck and fired second and third waves of explosives.
Boom boom boom!
The first Hearthkyn warrior fell, his armor torn apart by the explosive bomb.
One after another, the warriors of the Hearthkyn fell, forging armor from the tough alloy they had forged from ore mined at the heart of the Galaxy.
Clad in heavy mechanical armor, the Ironkin, with heavy steps, swung their Warhammer and mechanical claws, launching an attack on the Honor Guard.
Kaser -born "Warrior" from the 8th Legion infused his sword with Psionic Energy, swung it diagonally to the left, and deflected the mechanical claw.
He deflected the attack with a "Wusa Style" and then swung his sword diagonally to the right, using a "Reverse Wusa Style" to deflect the heavy hammer that came crashing down.
The "Warrior" was forced back a step by the shock, astonished by the enemy's strength.
The "Warrior" thrust forward, the sword tip tracing along the Ironkin's steel body and piercing through the opponent's brain tissue.
The blade crackled against his head. He held the tip there for a moment, until he was sure the light inside was off and the enemy was dead, before withdrawing the blade.
Hearthkyn warrior emerged from beside the Ironkin, wielding a gleaming Plasma Battle Axe, and slashed at the "Warrior."
The 7th Legion's Catachan "Hunter" rammed viciously into the Hearthkyn Warrior.
As their bodies collided, the "hunter" felt a tremendous force emanating from the Hearthkyn warrior's short but muscular body.
[This short man is quite strong.]
As he pondered, he thrust his Catachan Fang downwards.
The warrior of the Hearthkyn suddenly lowered his head, Catachan Fang swept past his head, piercing his shoulder.
The Hearthkyn warrior's gray hair quickly turned a dull yellow, and his face turned ashen.
The venom of the Catachan Cobra spread rapidly within the Hearthkyn warrior's body, and in an instant, his corpse slammed heavily to the ground.
Nimrod drew his Sword of Vaul, wielding its blade which shimmered with blue-white light, and charged into the Squats ranks.
The Power Blade spun rapidly, shattering the heads of the Hearthkyn warriors and cracking the armor of the Ironkin.
Nimrod his troops forward, the attacks of the Squats striking the repaired armor before being deflected by the scales of the Iron-scaled Kraken.
He charged forward, and the attacks of the Squats could not slow his pace.
After charging across four decks, a Hearthkyn with a flushed face, a furious expression, and a beard reaching his chest, wearing layers of armor, roared out.
The supreme commander, clad in High Overlord armor forged from Leijin Alloy, stomped his feet and charged toward Nimrod.
His guards' Magnetic Coil hummed, and their glow shimmered on the deck.
Upon seeing the enemy clad in heavy, ornate armor, the "Baron of Corruption" thought to himself:
[The heavy armor forged by the Squats is extremely defensive, but it also has weaknesses that can be exploited.]
The "Baron of Corruption" pressed down with his left arm, and his Spirituality burst forth.
The High Overlord felt a sudden increase in gravity; his body felt as heavy as if it were filled with lead.
He moved forward with difficulty, his pace slower than ever before, like a snail.
The Ironkin, who High Overlord half his life, charged toward Nimrod.
They swung their heavy hammers and smashed them down on Nimrod.
Nimrod's eyes flashed with light, Telekinesis surged forth, sending the Ironkin flying.
The Ironkin's heavy bodies slammed against the metal deck, producing a harsh, scraping sound.
Sparks flew from the metal rubbing together, scattering and falling.
With another wave of his hand, the "Baron of Corruption" caused the High Overlord to suddenly feel the gravity acting on his body vanish. His body rapidly became lighter and he abruptly floated up.
The High Overlord struggled to maintain his balance. As a skilled miner who had once excavated precious ores in the void, he leaned forward, using the momentum of his body to fall.
His body swayed in the air, as if he were drunk, and he staggered toward Nimrod.
When the High Overlord was still more than ten meters away from Nimrod suddenly raised his hand and threw a punch.
The "Baron of Corruption" was amplified by the strong wind, adding a powerful impact force.
The High Overlord was thrown away by the "force," flying several meters backward.
The "Baron of Corruption" slammed his left arm down, High Overlord crashing heavily onto the deck.
The High Overlord saw Venus before his eyes, but he stubbornly got up from the ground and continued charging towards Nimrod.
The "Baron of Corruption" applied "force" to the heavy, Leijin Alloy armor, manipulating the High Overlord's body to tumble and fly, sometimes forward, sometimes backward, by increasing or decreasing the force and changing direction.
The High Overlord tried more than ten times, but not only could he not reach the black-armored Warrior, he was also toyed with. He was so angry that his long gray hair stood on end and his beard bristled.
The High Overlord's eyes bulged with rage, and he swung his battle axe with all his might, hurling it fiercely at Nimrod.
The battle axe whistled through the air as it flew towards Nimrod.
The "Baron of Corruption" smiled slightly. "[Throwing, huh? I'm pretty good at that too.]"
The trajectory of the tomahawk's rotation transformed into a spinning circle in his mind.
The "Baron of Corruption" hung the Sword of Vaul at his waist, flicked the axe handle with his index finger, and added a burst of force.
The battle axe changed direction and accelerated towards the High Overlord.
The Adamantine Battle Axe struck the top-grade Leijin Alloy armor with tremendous force, slicing through layers of armor, shredding his neatly groomed beard, and cleaving open his chest.
