"They are coming from the water purification plant!" Lyle, who is affiliated with Blacksteel International, shouted. He has relied on his experienced combat experience and keen intuition to have a certain say in the city defense army with different systems. The city defense army and Blacksteel International security around him are all under his orders.
The soldiers turned the crossbow muzzle, and those who could not get a long-range weapon clenched their hands with crude weapons like mallets and simple shields with simply cut edges.
"Shoot!"
The crossbow arrows were fired together, and they fell into the Originium zombies that were coming.
To say that they were walking corpses was too accurate. Their mutilated and shriveled flesh bodies were filled with Chaos Originium Slugs of many colors, and they were controlled to walk step by step in the direction where the living people gathered.
These bodies have also undergone severe mutations. They are almost the same as those of patients who are deeply infected with Oripathy. The whole body is glowing with the same luster as Originium. There are also many Originium spikes sprouting out of the joints. If you rub them even slightly, you will suffer from the same severe Oripathy.
The crossbow arrows fired in unison, nailing the walking corpses. Cracks expanded at the arrow points, and then some coarse dust erupted from those gaps, which could be easily blocked by wearing a mask.
The lethality of these crossbow arrows against Originium walking zombies was once again proven to be weak and weak. The progress of the walking zombies was not delayed by these crossbow arrows for a single second.
"Prepare to engage the enemy!" Lyle ordered loudly again. He knew that many people would lose their judgment due to the fierceness of the battlefield, so a commander needed to tell the confused soldiers the direction of action.
Small hammers that can break stones became the soldiers' last resort. Those sharp blades were not enough to break through the Originium zombie's solid shell.
There is a minefield in front of the position of Lyle and others. These mines are not detonated by any gunpowder, but are industrially made sensitive Originium and the matching Originium Arts.
These square mines were laid out on the ground, and Originium zombies walked up to them without thinking. Then the explosion blew up the zombies and tore them into pieces. The zombies with most of their body structures still left were slowly crawling towards the living people in the smoke.
The crossbows fired round after round, and all the mines were exhausted. Lyle gritted his teeth and saw in these walking corpses their former vitality and kindness.
Using the standard shield in his hand, he smashed the torso of a walking corpse. Lyle couldn't help but cursed in the midst of the fierce fighting, "What the hell is going on!?"
"What the hell is going on?"
Huang asked as he looked at the dead city in the distance. They had accompanied the large army to the vicinity of Mafi New City, and of course they were attacked by Originium zombies on the way.
It's just that this small group of zombies was not enough to fight against the combined rescue force. It was torn apart by the Originium mortar bombardment of the Ob'lotai team. Now they only have some wreckage left for the accompanying Rhine Lab personnel to study.
This is not the first time Huang has seen turning a living person into such a terrifying and twisted life form. Rhodes Island's archives contain a lot of combat information about such terrifying enemies, and as an elite operator, she is qualified to browse these nightmare-inducing materials, and even have the opportunity to confront them in person.
For example, those human remains that are parasitized by aberrant growths, and those hosts whose bodies are covered with high-energy Originium and have almost lost all self-awareness...
But these things...
Huang couldn't hold back his curious and disgusted gaze, and once again watched the Rhine Lab staff wearing heavy protective clothing store a dry and hard zombie head in a box, and then use a crusher to crush the other heads into powder.
There was no trace of flesh under the head, and the empty head cavity became the home of two or three Originium Slug hugging each other. These slow-moving insects, which in Huang's eyes were not considered a threat at all, almost grew together with the heads of the walking corpses.
Huang felt a little heavy and couldn't help but look at Franka and the others.
Franka and Liskarm looked very ugly, but it could be seen that they would not be frightened by this kind of enemy and lose their fighting ability.
And Jessica, who had always had a weak personality, looked pale, and she retched again because she saw the remains of the walking dead.
As for the new operators Rhodes Island, Mag and Russ...
Huang couldn't read any more emotions from their calm faces. Their eyes were as mysterious and deep as their armor.
When Huang observed the two brothers, a spiritual communication different from this world was formed between the two.
[It seems that the fluctuations caused by our time traveling to this world are expanding.]
Magnus couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He thought that the last time he took action to tear apart the Scourges that was almost a small Warp Storm and wiped out all the Chaos Originium Slug with Leman Russ, he had eliminated all threats.
[The smell coming from these walking corpses belongs more to Originium, with only a very weak power of Chaos entangled in it.]
[Even a little bit is enough to turn the whole world upside down. The power of Originium is somewhat similar to the power of Warp, but they are obviously more primitive and concentrated than the power of Warp, which leads to Originium The power of Warp has no choice but to let it be infected and controlled. This is why these Originium zombies will not switch forms, because the Warp energy has dispersed and gone to a corner that we don't know.]
[Maybe we shouldn't have come here...Warp Even if the gods are under control, the energy that constitutes them will instinctively fall in a worse direction.]
[What? Has my brother begun to feel pity for these Abhumans? I know you have special thoughts on those Luper girls. That little girl named Hong will wag her tail every time she sees you.]
[Shut up, I don't mean those! I want to talk about the issue of gods. Those operators from Yan told me a lot of local folk customs and ancient myths and legends.]
[Do you think those are true?]
[After experiencing everything Warp and seeing these Originium, I will no longer look at those ancient stories with a contemptuous attitude.]
[Oh my god... I am so touched that my brother finally understands that ancient culture is not useless.]
Magnus was moved by Leman Russ's words and looked like he was about to cry, but his brother only recalled the past when Great Crusade annihilated Xenos and smashed their temple.
The original appearance of the gods worshiped by Xenos is very different from the gods of Warp. They are basically some mysterious explanations of natural phenomena.
For example, Thunder Lord Lightning Mother, Sea God Heavenly King.
But as time goes by, the appearance of the gods is also changing, and along with it is the corruption that continues to penetrate the Warp gods.
