Elbowing with joy

Next, Lin En led the insect swarm to elbow other races in various directions.

The Tyranids's power was barely enough to defeat the four vendors, but for a race in the real world, it was nothing short of a catastrophe.

Twelve Tyranids Mothership took off from the orbit of the Desolate Planet outside Bolomite, forming two formations of six ships each. The Night Goddess and the Mother of Tears were in the center, with the Mothership formations on both sides. The entire fleet sailed into outer space in a grand procession.

Lin En stood on the bridge of the Night Goddess, looking out the Porthole at the twelve purple-green Mothership.

They do look different after their color changes.

It used to be a cold, pale purple-white, but now with more green, it's not so cold anymore. It looks like a huge, moving bunch of purple cabbages, kind of ugly-cute.

"Set off."

The fleet plunged into Maelstrom.

The first stop, the nearest Greenskins planet, turned into ruins a week later.

Two hundred thousand Greenskins were overwhelmed by a swarm of insects.

The green on the shells of the Purple Carapace Chapter deepened after they fed.

Lin En looked down from orbit and saw that all the Greenskins outposts on the planet's surface were gone, leaving only half-eaten mushrooms and overturned, wrecked vehicles.

The dog- Tyranids has even learned to be picky eaters. When you run out of food in the future, just think about the half of the mushrooms you wasted today.

"Next stop." He glanced at the star map.

The Bio-ship are so useful; the feeling of zero casualties is addictive.

The insects reproduce on their own, and no matter how many you kill, their numbers don't decrease.

And it's okay even if we lose.

If you wipe them out, just find a Tyranids battlefield and dominate.

The main force of the Tyranids was wiped out, but many branch fleets remained in the galaxy.

Use the enemy's guns to shoot their cannons.

Isn't this much better than using our own forces?

A joyful elbow strike.

Greenskins Two, with 120,000 Greenskins, was cleared out in three days.

Planet Five Drukhari...

They couldn't catch them; they escaped along the Webway.

However, their Wraithbone base did not escape.

One day, the entire Wraithbone hall of the raiding station was gnawed away, leaving only a steel skeleton.

The insect's carapace has a pearly white sheen and its hardness has increased.

The things from the Aeldari really are all good.

The Greenskins asteroid belt.

The Greenskins transformed the entire asteroid into a mobile Fortress.

The Tyranids Mothership flew over, Mothership hull opened, and the Zerg swarm rained down on the Fortress's surface.

The Greenskins rushed out of the Fortress, saw the swarm of insects, and turned to run.

It's a pity it runs too slowly.

The Fortress was gnawed through, and the Greenskins were swallowed up by the swarm of insects.

Number seven.

Number eight.

Number nine.

Number 10.

Gradually clear out the Maelstrom Sector.

Each time a point is cleared, a red section disappears and a green section appears on the star map.

The shells of the Purple Carapace Chapter also turned increasingly green, from purple-green to green-purple, looking from a distance like green flowerbeds with purple flowers flying in space.

Later, the number of battlefields near the Maelstrom decreased, and more and more star systems returned to peace.

"That was fast," Iron Hammer exclaimed over the comms. "Those bugs are really fierce in battle."

"How can the bugs be the public enemy of the Milky Way if they're not fierce? Actually, if it weren't for so many Xenos holding them off, the Imperium would have been devoured by the bugs long ago."

"Greenskins guard the nation's gates, Necrons die for the country," Iron Hammer sighed.

Lin En said, "I've noticed your recent statements are becoming increasingly disloyal; I'm going to tell the Lord Regent."

Iron Hammer hung up the phone while cursing on the other end.

The dense red spots on the star map disappeared one by one, turning green.

The peaceful star system expanded, from the outer circle to the middle circle, and from the middle circle to the inner circle. Merchant shipping routes reopened, colonial fleets began to return, and starports lit up again.

The Purple Carapace Chapter advanced to the center circle and encountered even denser resistance.

This place isn't just inhabited by Greenskins and Aeldari; it also has Chaos.

The Maelstrom is one of the most active areas of Imperium Chaos activity.

The closer you are to the central Great Rift of the Maelstrom, the Warp energy seeps out from the rift, and the more planets are occupied by Chaos.

These planets occupied by Chaos are not only those occupied by demons, but also many occupied by Cultists who corrupt Mortals.

Lin En frowned as he stood on the bridge.

A planet Chaos Corruption has a peculiar feel; looking down from its orbit, it appears as if the planet is moldy.

A strange whispering sound floated in the air, murmuring in my ears, like a hallucination.

This flavor is too strong.

Phoros stood beside him, his hand on the hilt of his sword.

"Sir, a large number of demonic activity signals have been detected on the planet's surface, along with the aura of those traitors—at least a company's worth, possibly more."

Those traitors refer to the Chaos Space Marines.

I don't know which Traitor Legions it is, but on this side of the Maelstrom, it's either the Red Corsair, the Word Bearers, or the Thousand Sons.

They have a grudge against each other.

Lin En thought for a moment.

"Let the insects go first, see if they can get past them."

He needs to estimate the current combat strength of the Purple Carapace Chapter.

The twelve Tyranids Mothership descended from orbit and entered the atmosphere.

The Bio-ship pierced through the dark red clouds, the Mothership's belly opened, and the swarm of insects poured down like Waterfall.

Termagant, Tyranid Warrior, Tyrant Guard, and Tyrant themselves descended densely onto the ground, charging towards the Chaos stronghold.

Lin En looked at the Holo-screen on the bridge.

Oh, it's not the Red Corsair after all.

He is Word Bearers.

That's true. The Red Corsair usually use force to resolve things. Only the Word Bearers would resort to planetary whispers to corrupt and brainwash their faith.

The swarm advanced smoothly.

The Chaos Space Marines ' standard Bolter clanged and clattered against the evolved Tyranids carapace, unable to penetrate it at all; only Heavy Bolter could inflict effective casualties on the evolved Tyranids.

One after another, the Word Bearers were crushed by the Tyranids.

The Daemon Engine charged forward, only to be pinned down and devoured by the Tyrant Guard.

The Chaos Cultist charged into the swarm of insects, Chainaxe in hand, and then... nothing happened.

Not bad. The evolved bugs can take down Chaos Space Marines just like they take down Greenskins.

This is already a very powerful unit in Warhammer 40,000.

They need the Lord Regent to provide them with more supplies.

We can't expect them to work for free, can we?

I was just thinking about it.

The demon has appeared.

The Word Bearers worship all Four Gods, and when they are attacked, they will simultaneously ask Four Gods for help.

Khorne, having heard of the insects here, was the first to respond to the Word Bearers's prayer.

Hundreds and thousands of Bloodletter Bloodletter out of the Warp Rift and charged toward the swarm of insects.

With red skin and curved horns, they screamed as they charged into the swarm, wielding their hellish claws to slash at the insects.

Lin En tried sending the insects to eat the demon.

The Mothership swallowed the Chaos Daemons whole.

Then a tremor ran through me.

It didn't taste right the first bite, so it tried another.

The Mothership lowered its head again, searching for the demon.

It bit into another one, swallowed it, and then trembled again.

I was so angry that it felt like I hadn't eaten anything.

What is this? It looks nutritious, but when I ate it, it felt like I was swallowing air.

Using insects to fight demons is the least profitable strategy because demons are not biological matter; when they die, their corpses dissipate and return to the Warp Warp energy.

The insects ate the demon, and the more they ate, the hungrier they became.

Lin En quickly calmed the Mothership, which was trembling with anger, and then sent them back to eat the Greenskins.

No problem, let the bugs elbow the real-world Xenos then.

Demons? They can fight demons themselves.

His skills are entirely focused on attacking demons.

The Emperor's Gaze! Open!

Activate the Account-Deletion Sword!

Opening on the Thirty Days! Astartes have boarded!

What Gollum about? Go tell my Holy Light Greatsword!

"For the Emperor and my Lord!!!"

The Lamenters surged out of the armory and rushed toward the landing craft.
