With the appearance of Megalith, Doom Array of Necrons is rapidly taking shape. The previously extinguished Blackstone Tower began to shine again, and even surrounded by Canoptek Scarab at the rear, two more Blackstone Towers have been completed.

The sub-Spatial Energy projected from Sword of the Void to the surface of Planet was forcibly dispersed, and the strong interference successfully paralyzed three groups of equipment in the already overloaded Warp Energy Guidance Device.

A batch of Destroyer Heavy Robot that was supposed to be delivered to the surface normally was squeezed out Warp at an altitude of one thousand meters.

Even though there are Gravity Adjustment Device, these aircraft are not air units after all.

Nearly thirty Destroyer were destroyed in mid-air because they were unable to dodge the attack.

The Obelisk deployed by Necrons is floating in the sky, and the gravitational arcs emitted by Gravitational Pulse Cannon are wrapped around the falling Destroyer Robot, trying to smash these Iron Clanks that suddenly appeared in the air.

However, the vast majority of Destroyer have adjusted their landing points in the air.

The Gravity Tow device mounted on the aircraft adjusts and uses mutual traction. The other combat aircraft use their own computing power to build a gravitational orbit.

Using the sudden change of gravity to accelerate, these huge machines hit Necrons's not very fast Necrons Obelisk one by one.

Intense firepower hit the outer shell of Destroyer Robot.

The form-fitting shield kept flashing on its armored surface but remained stubborn and did not completely fail.

Hundreds of Destroyers fell from the sky like terrible Drop Pod rain.

And the vast majority of the losses come from those terrible Doomstone Tower.

Particle Lash severely damaged all Destroyer Robot aircraft in the air that tried to get close.

Following the impact of falling to the ground, most of these damaged bodies suffered various catastrophic injuries.

On the contrary, those Destroyers that rushed towards Obelisk were able to land on the ground normally.

The firepower of Obelisk is not enough to destroy Destroyer.

Its size is not much larger than Destroyer.

With just one wave of landing, more than half of the Obelisk that Necrons bombarded against the ground was smashed into pieces.

But landing is just the beginning of the battle.

After confirming the terrifying destructive power of Megalith, the Adaptive Combat Core that had originally gathered together dispersed into a large number of small individuals and began to move rapidly in the direction of Megalith.

Along the way, Adaptive Combat Core kept switching weapons and carried out indiscriminate attacks on all surrounding Necrons units.

From the simplest Neutron Beam, Small-Caliber Laser Cannon, to the ship-level small-caliber Rapid-Fire Plasma Cannon and Railgun.

Weapons are constantly switching from energy beams, radiation beams to live ammunition.

And began to devour the Living Metal wreckage of Necrons as well as the severely damaged Destroyer Robot and other combat unit wreckage as it advanced.

Adaptive Core is very efficient, and the number is increasing rapidly like a snowball.

Necrons also has a way to deal with this enemy that is spreading like a plague.

Doomsday Ark hid in the distance and fired continuously.

Once the nano-core inside the Adaptive Combat Core body is shrouded in multiple attacks and completely destroyed, the replica will follow the main body in a chain reaction of collective disintegration.

The long-range Armed Sentinel, which is supposed to deal with these Doomsday Ark, is busy using its own flexibility to fight with the Tomb Stalker and Tomb Sentinel who launch raids from underground.

Magalon-Type Atomic Pulse Cannon's excessive power makes it very restrictive in close combat.

This forces those Armed Sentinel to cooperate with each other to find opportunities.

The battlefield where all kinds of units are completely mixed has uniquely restricted the performance of the terrifying weapons loaded on Megalith.

Destroyer landed on the ground and began to exert its terrifying melee capabilities.

The Gravity Tow device helps them get closer to the enemy quickly.

The huge Power Claw tore apart Necrons's Tomb Stalker, and terrible flames were ejected from the upper arms of the machine body, covering a large area. This terrible high temperature directly melted Living Metal into twisted metal lava and detonated the weapon system of the Necrons unit.

The out-of-control energy raged across the battlefield with shock waves and green arcs of light.

Part of the impact hit Destroyer and Adaptive Shield, causing ripples on the outer shell of the machine body.

Then these huge machines began to flexibly avoid Particle Lash from Doomstone Tower on the battlefield.

Although it is twenty-five meters high, Destroyer is not too slow.

At this moment, Necrons and Crowned General seemed to see some familiar scenes.

It seems that those fragile creatures who awakened themselves responded to their own armies in this way countless years ago.

Crowned General raised the scepter in his hand high, and Transdimensional Portal unfolded on the battlefield again.

"Any form of life will come to an end, and we are no exception, but you come first, and we come last!"

A group of Canoptek Heavy Construct appeared in the center of the battlefield.

And Celestial Forge Heavy Construct began to try to push forward to chase those flexible Destroyer Robot.

These terrifying Necrons machines have a huge eight-legged chassis and are nearly forty meters tall, resembling a giant spider.

These huge Alloy are capable of piercing blows and horizontal swings, and their huge power is enough to easily knock Imperial Titan to the ground or directly break the chassis.

The left and right sides of the machine are equipped with a door Singularity Generator and a door Transdimensional Projector.

There is a weird head structure inside the central body, which is equipped with a super long-range weapon-Synaptic Obliterator.

As more than ten dark green lights were released from Celestial Forge Heavy Construct's head.

Immediately a batch of Destroyer Robot were pierced.

The terrifying energy penetrated the shield defense and penetrated the entire body armor and structure.

The destructive energy even clings to the gap and continues to corrode the body.

Destroyer, which was partially penetrated into the core of the body, completely lost its response.

The other part of Destroyer, whose head was destroyed, turned into a headless warrior and rushed towards those huge Celestial Forge Heavy Construct.

However, these huge Necrons units also demonstrate amazing mobility, just because their unique structure results in slightly lower flexibility than Aeldari's Wraith Titan.

The huge armored limbs collided with Destroyer, leaving a huge gap in Power Claw, and the huge limbs simply knocked the entire Destroyer Robot away.

Iax simply let the seriously damaged Destroyer hug the armored legs of Celestial Forge Heavy Construct, and then tried to jump on top of the opponent's body.

After losing several Destroyer, Iax still found a way to temporarily deal with these giant machines.

The damaged Destroyer pounced on the thick limb and then self-destructed as close to the connection as possible.

The huge explosion is enough to knock these Celestial Forge Heavy Construct off balance.

However, after destroying three of them, these structures completely refused to engage in close combat with Destroyer Robot.

The battle loss ratio began to rise rapidly.
