March of Destruction (II)

The air warped, and with the ozone stench of ionized air came the sensation that every hair on Guk's body was being tugged by an invisible force.

Then came a flash. Indescribable, dazzling colors spread outward from a mass of plasma like a spilled paint box.

"It's coming! It's coming!"

The mechanics around them cried out excitedly. Then several who stood too close suddenly caught fire, sending them running about in panic with their heads clutched in their hands, while the Snotlings behind them raised fire extinguishers and hurried after their masters.

Immense energy began to spill out and drift away. Nearby metal frames that had not yet been fully dismantled groaned and creaked, then were crushed into balls by an invisible hand and sucked at flying speed into the rippling, multicolored curtain.

Feeling the tremendous pull, the watching Orks all retreated, but Guk did not move an inch. He silently watched the storm gradually form within the massive metal archway.

"Begin."

After Guk gave the simple order, twenty-four metal spikes extended from the edges of the archway, releasing pale green currents amid crackling sounds.

Several hundred meters away, thirty Weirdboyz were releasing their energy.

When the green arcs pierced the vortex, the air suddenly popped, and the storm subsided.

"Blast it! Who's shoving me?!"

A shrill noise suddenly rang out, but it did not come from beside Guk.

The gateway opposite him abruptly began convulsing like a spasming stomach, spewing a heap of green "filth" outward.

A hundred mechanics tumbled out from the curtain within the archway, rolled down the stairs, and quickly piled up into a mountain. The unlucky ones crushed at the bottom immediately stopped moving.

"Brilliant! It worked!"

Euclid's four mechanical arms clapped furiously. The Snotlings behind him followed suit. Though they only had two hands,
