The team advanced for another half hour.

The tunnel gradually opened up, and a faint roar could be heard from the front.

Fu Haoran raised his hand and the team stopped instantly.

Servo-Skull flew out with a buzz, and the night vision picture was transmitted back to the tactical board in real time.

The underground cave stretched before our eyes, with densely packed Genestealerss carrying weapon boxes, and metal boxes piled up into a hill. Hundreds of Purestrain Genestealers patrolled against the rock walls, their sharp claws glowing coldly in the darkness.

At the highest point of the cave, squatting was a Genestealers, which was twice the size of an ordinary pure-blood, with three giant claws clasping the rock, and the carapace on its back glowed with cold light.

"It's not Broodlord." Fu Haoran squinted, "It should be Broodlord's personal guard."

Dredd tensed his body, waiting for Fu Haoran to come up with a tactical plan.

However, Fu Haoran just stood behind him and raised his chin.

Servitor Immediately delivered a large box and opened it to reveal a pair of twin-shot individual cloud burst rocket launchersO

Fu Haoran picked up one and put it on his shoulder. "The cave is completely sealed, and the rock formations can block sound waves and psychic energy fluctuations. A round of volleys will clear the area and never give them a chance to report to the core area."

"Ronan, you take charge of the left area and I will take charge of the right area.

"I want it too!"

Tychus took a step forward, and grabbed two cloud explosive bombs with his hand as big as a cattail leaf, and his three-meter-tall body blocked the light behind him.

Ling Shuang frowned and stepped forward. "You know how to use this thing?"

Tychus lowered his head and cast a bright look of disdain.

"What a five-year-old can do, can I do it?"

Ling Shuang choked on the spot and his face turned red.

Dredd next to him turned his face away, as if he was not surprised.

But he was more concerned about where Fu Haoran's weapons came from. "Xenos Technology?"

Fu Haoran rolled his eyes. "This is a good thing I got from Ancient Terra."

Fu Haoran silently added in his heart, "Marvel's product is produced by the Great Eastern Country and is specially designed to treat people with phobia due to lack of firepower. Originally, it was reserved for quelling the rebellion of nobles, but today I will open the eyes of these Xenomorph."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Haoran was the first to pull the trigger.

More than a dozen cloud explosive bombs dragged white flames and pierced into the depths of the cave.

Boom!

The first explosion shook the rock wall.

The dazzling white light instantly engulfed the entire cave, and the 2000-degree high-temperature fireball swept across the ground and the gaps in the rock walls without blind spots. Genestealers, who was rushing at the front, was instantly carbonized without even letting out a scream.

The overpressure shock wave followed closely, sweeping across the entire space.

Genestealers's body was directly torn into pieces, the alloy weapon box was twisted into iron balls, and the patrols on the rock wall were slapped on the rocks and crushed into pulp.

Three seconds later, the second wave of explosions followed.

The secondary deflagration of the twin explosions drained the cave of all oxygen.

Genestealers, who luckily escaped the first wave of explosions, covered his throat and fell to the ground twitching. The air in his lungs was instantly squeezed out, and his limbs were twisted into strange shapes.

The aftermath of the explosion dissipated, leaving only the crisp sound of sizzling lava in the cave.

"Let's go."

Fu Haoran threw the empty cartridge to Servitor behind him, picked up the 2.2-meter-diameter chain saw disc, and walked into the cave with great swagger.

Two Genestealers, which were half damaged by the explosion, roared and rushed towards them.

The chain saw disc buzzes to start.

Fu Haoran waved it casually.

The two Genestealers were split in half, blood splattered all over the ground, and they walked away very peacefully.

Along the way, any Genestealers who were still alive were sawed one by one by Fu Haoran and split into two halves.

The chain saw blade swept across the alloy door at the entrance of the cave. A huge crack was cut in the thick door panel, and metal fragments were scattered all over the floor.

Ling Shuang and Dredd stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the charred corpses on the ground and the weapon boxes that had been melted into molten iron. They were speechless for a long time.

Dredd's throat rolled. "Are all your Hive City governors so crazy?"

The veteran next to him calmly changed the magazine. "I'm used to it. The Governor said that if you can solve it with firepower, don't bother to get close."

As for the Ogryns, they nodded around the huge crater. "It was so beautiful just now, I want to see it again!"

On the other side, the deepest part of Underhive, the Sanctuary Cave.

The ground is covered with human skeletons, which are piled up layer by layer to the edge of the rock wall. The stench condenses into a substance, making your lungs hurt when you take a breath.

On the high obsidian platform in the center of the cave, Broodlord, nearly six meters tall, lay dormant like a statue.

A carapace as hard as diamond covers the whole body, and four huge claws are curled up in front of the body. The tips of the claws can easily tear Armored Vehicle. There are piles of human skulls at its feet.

The entire cave is filled with the suffocating spiritual pressure it emits.

Under the stone platform, stood a young girl with a bald head, the appearance of a human woman in her twenties, fair skin, and a spotless Hive City noble dress. Only vertical pupils and retractable bone claws on her fingertips exposed her inhuman body.

Her name is Moria·Wanzhao, she is the bishop of the sect, the right paw of Broodlord, and the chief Psyker of the entire sect.

She was originally a collateral lady of the Grinna Family. After being infected, she single-handedly planned the infiltration of the entire Hive City, from Noble Council to the Hive City Guards. Countless moles were Gene-seed planted by her with her psychic powers.

At this moment, she was using her soft-spoken spiritual energy to soothe the restless Purestrain Genestealer around her.

Suddenly, she made a move.

The leader's psychic message crashed into her mind instantly.

All outposts have been destroyed. The enemy is very close to the sanctuary and is now rushing towards the core area.

Moria The gentleness on his face disappeared instantly and turned into anger.

"You failed." Moria's voice was cold. There was no rebuke, only a statement, "Because of your arrogance, now those False Emperor lackeys are about to break into the sanctuary of our respected father!"

The leader's three arms grasped their weapons at the same time, and while leading the team at a fast pace, he said, "I know, I am rushing back to make up for all this."

"The slumber of the revered father must not be disturbed by these unclean ones." Moria raised his hand and a dozen Genestealers with membrane wings emerged from the darkness. "I will send more warriors to complete your unfinished mission and never let the unclean ones approach the sanctuary of the revered father!"

"I'll go too."

The leader's psychic roar echoed in the cave.

"Even if they have already reached the gate of the sanctuary, they will eventually die under our claws."

Moria was about to nod.

Boom----

A dull thunderous heartbeat came from the stone platform.

The boundless psychic pressure surged instantly, crashing down like a huge mountain.

This psychic energy fluctuation instantly interrupted the communication between the two.

Moria instantly fell to his knees, his forehead pressed against the cold rock, his voice was full of ecstasy and awe, and his whole body was trembling. "Honored Father! I heard your call!"

"Our respected father is awakening!"

Psychic currents flowed wildly along the rock wall, and Genestealers in the entire sanctuary were all prostrate on the ground, letting out pious roars.

At the same time, Fu Haoran paused in his steps.

[Tip: Broodlord is awake! All Underhive and Genestealers are rushing here. S-level mission warning! If you win in a duel, you will earn blood. If you lose, you will go to the banquet!]

"What's wrong?" Ling Shuang asked.

Fu Haoran didn't explain, just kept walking.

The team rushed all the way and arrived at an open-air cargo lift platform, which was the only passage to the core area.

The lifting platform is half the size of a basketball court and is pulled up and down by steel cables, with heavy steel guardrails welded around it.

"Further down is the core area." Dredd lowered his voice and clutched Chainsword with his hands, "Go down, --

There is no way out."

Ling Shuang took a deep breath and was about to speak to boost morale when Tychus suddenly raised his head, "They are coming.

Tychus suddenly raised his head, and Power Hammer in his hand suddenly hit the steel plate of the platform with a loud noise.

The next second, countless black shadows fell from the sky.

Purestrain Genestealer emerged from the hole in the tunnel wall like a dumpling and pounced towards the platform.

Fu Haoran has the fastest response.

He directly erected the 2.2-meter chain saw disc in front of him, the saw teeth spinning wildly, and the buzzing sound was deafening.

Genestealers, the first one to jump down, hit the high-speed rotating saw disc and was instantly cut into two pieces. Fu Haoran's flesh and blood spattered all over him.

He simply put the chain saw disc on the platform guardrail, moved his steps left and right, and waited for Genestealers to hit the saw disc himself.

It's good to have a large area.

No skills required at all.

Set your position, and the rest depends on gravity and sawtooth to complete the kill.

Cyber-Mastiff jumped into the Genestealers group, biting its throat and refusing to let go.

Servo-Skull is suspended in mid-air, and Lasgun is used to shoot the pure blood that has slipped through the net.

Ling Shuang held Bolter to guard the dead corner of the platform, and every shot was accurate and hard.

Dredd's Chainsword danced into a wall of light, splitting all the Genestealers that broke through the fire net.

Tychus was holding Power Hammer and guarding the other side of the platform. He hammered one by one and smashed Genestealers directly into a pulp. At the same time, he screamed, "This is not the way to go! Someone must be left to guard the elevator entrance to block the follow-up reinforcements, otherwise they will be attacked from the front and back!"

Everyone was stunned.

The truth is right.

But when these words came from the mouth of a Ogryn, it sounded weird.

Fu Haoran didn't hesitate at all.

"Ronan!"

"Arrived!"

"You lead the veterans and Ogryn brigade to guard the elevator entrance."

"Received!"

Ling Shuang immediately stepped forward. "I'll go with you!"

"No, you are Commissar of the Ogryn brigade. You must stay in command." Fu Haoran said in an unquestionable tone, "Securing this place is our biggest escape route."

Ling Shuang opened his mouth, and finally nodded firmly. "Understood! Promise to hold the position!"

Fu Haoran glanced at the team and finally decided. "Tychus, Dredd, the three of us will bring Castigator, Cyber-Mastiff and Servo-Skull to meet Broodlord."

Dredd's eyes were widened and he felt that the other party was crazy.

The platform shook violently and fell completely to the ground.

The thick alloy sanctuary door is right in front of everyone.

Fu Haoran stepped forward, and the chain saw disc struck down hard.

The harsh sound of tearing metal echoed through the tunnel.

A huge crack was sawed through the alloy door, and it collapsed to both sides.

The moment the door opened, a breathtaking psychic pressure rushed in.

At the end of the passage, the leader led a large number of Purestrain Genestealer, staring at them.

It recognized Fu Haoran.

It was this human being who destroyed its outpost and disturbed my respected father's slumber.

Fu Haoran Press the maximum power of the chain saw disk, and the purple spiritual energy instantly envelopes the entire saw disk, and the buzzing sound of the saw teeth almost shatters the rock wall.

He turned around and gave orders to the people behind him.

"You guys guard the elevator."

"Leave this guy to me."

Dredd's face turned pale instantly. The team he led was destroyed by the opponent's team.

"Don't be impulsive, you can't win it." Dredd reminded in a low voice.

The leader took a step forward, opened his three giant claws slightly, and said with a cold joke, "He is right, you are seeking your own death."

Fu Haoran stepped for a moment, then he smiled.

He put the chain saw disk on his shoulder and said the words in the most normal tone, "My sword is not bad either."
