Servitor tried to disarm these Werewolf ized Space Wolves warriors.

However, a more surprising problem was soon discovered.

The Power Armour on these warriors seems to have strangely merged with their flesh and blood.

Just like the native creatures in this forest.

The part covered by Power Armour was embedded in flesh and blood, and the Electronic Muscle Bundles originally in the lining was embedded in the body.

The circuit used to transmit data and information has become an extension of the nerve, and the Power Armour shell made by Ceramite has become even more strange.

After the fusion point of the skin and armor was carefully separated, the metal became strangely active.

Compared with the fluid-like Nanomachines, this active metal flowing between flesh and blood and the outer shell of Ceramite has many incomprehensible manifestations.

What drives these metallic fluids is not electromagnetic force but Psychic Power.

These weird fluids are prevalent in the blood of these Werewolfs and participate in the circulation, as if they have become an additional set of Psychic Power veins and strengthened these Werewolf ized Space Wolves warriors.

When Servitor realized that these weird active metals might be extremely special, he immediately pulled out the probe that he had just sampled.

The blood of Astartes usually contains a large number of substances. Various metal ions are the guarantee of their life activities. It is not surprising that Ceramite is detected in the blood.

But when the complex optical coordinator of Machine Intelligence Servitors's electronic eye began to adjust the focus, a strange picture appeared.

In the microscopic field of view, it can be clearly seen that the special probe made by high-intensity Alloy is reacting in a strange way with the contaminated blood in a weird life fusion reaction.

After re-analyzing the large-scale flying creatures that appeared at the beginning and the insects with metal and Xenos Creatures, Iax came to a conclusion.

"The analysis of the data is completed: the metal materials here seem to be assimilated and fused by the biological flesh and blood as long as they come into contact with them and become part of the biological structure. The recording of the data is completed."

It's not just the shells of those insects that contain weird metal components.

Even those humanoid Xenos Creatures are the same. The gray scales on their bodies are metal sheets produced by the fusion of multiple metal components.

Iax repeatedly analyzed the data and decided to bring these out-of-control Space Wolves back to the temporary residence.

Although their status is abnormal and full of unknowns, Iax is keenly aware that these Werewolf-turned warriors may hide key clues to unlock this Eerie Forest mystery, and are even inextricably linked to the whereabouts of Leman Russ.

Under the escort of a group of Gaze-Render, a group of Castellan carried a large number of cages and temporarily imprisoned this group of 133 "beasts" and began to transport them to the landing point.

The remaining Servitor climbed aboard Giant Tree and began to independently explore the broken Space Wolves battleship.

Toxic substances are leaking everywhere here, and some kind of corrosive acid leaks from the hull pipes.

The smoke identified previously was produced by these corrosive acids hitting the tree trunks below.

What's even more strange is that the tree trunks below were catalyzed by visible drying and then continued to regenerate with amazing vitality.

In this way, the two reached a strange balance between regeneration and corrosion.

But as Servitor grabbed the sharp hull crack and climbed into the wreckage, the surrounding scene was still a bit unbelievable.

There was a rotten and strange atmosphere permeating the interior of the battleship, a weak current flashed on the damaged bulkheads, and from time to time, it seemed that the strange friction sounds of metal could be picked up.

There is obviously no energy supply, but this section of the hull is still functioning.

However, the Servitors moved forward and rummaged unscrupulously in this dangerous environment, and the optical sensors constantly scanned everything around them, not missing any detail.

There are lights shining in the fragments of the hull, and the lighting system is still functioning.

All kinds of debris and bloodstains were scattered throughout the hull, and the remains of various weird creatures were scattered everywhere.

Judging from the teeth marks and bite marks on these remains, Iax is very sure that these things are probably the food of those Werewolf-turned Space Wolves warriors here.

As the Servitors lit up the Cutter and took apart the severely damaged cabins, they soon found a Cogitator that had fallen into madness near the bottom.

Unlike other Cogitator, this Cogitator uses biological components. The sinner inside has changed beyond recognition.

The original mechanical shell was eroded by various biomass, and the biomass components and mechanical components were completely fused together to form a strange mixture.

Massive amounts of data are flowing crazily in Cogitator's arithmetic unit, and all kinds of chaotic codes and information are pouring out like an out-of-control torrent.

The Servitors tried to get close to this weird Cogitator, but more creepy things emerged from the hull.

The twisted human form merges with the huge metal, vaguely revealing a bit of Imperial Servitors.

The strange head on the ground rushed towards Machine Intelligence Servitors with the help of mechanical components.

Fortunately, although these weird things look disturbing in appearance, they are not very effective in combat.

Machine Intelligence Servitors quickly dismantled these things into biological components and confirmed their identities.

Those twisted human figures are indeed Imperium's common Servitor, while those heads running on the ground using mechanical components are Servo-skull.

Servo-skull, which had only bones left, was activated here and grew flesh and blood, and its biological and mechanical tissues were fused together.

Since Anti-Gravity Device cannot operate, these Servo-skull become flesh and blood heads running around.

The scene is somewhat scary.

As for the weird Cogitator, Servitor carefully found a distant data interface and then tried remote access. After downloading all the chaotic data in it, they immediately broke away from the wreckage.

Meanwhile, Logan and his Wolf Cubss on Titan Ship No. 39 are confronting Men of Iron, while Kheshig Guard on Jaghatai is trying to calm down their somewhat out-of-control cousins.

Ground exploration information is transmitted back to Titan Ship simultaneously.

Space Wolvess and White Scarss are watching Men of Iron's exploration together.

But when those ancient Werewolf-turned-Space Wolves warriors appeared, Logan their emotions obviously became excited.

Space Wolves people want to land on the ground to find clues for themselves.

However, Iax will not let these space huskies go up there to die.

The seemingly rough White Scarss obviously don't agree with their ideas either.

Although it was their first time to know that Genetic Flaw from Space Wolves was so serious, they had seen all the possibilities listed by Men of Iron's data analysis.

No one can confirm whether it was these weird forests or this weird Warp continent that catalyzed their genes.

If Logan and the others land on the surface recklessly, they may become just like those ancient Space Wolves warriors, reduced to beasts.

This is also the reason why Iax blocked them.

The effect of Panacea is very powerful, but obviously the situation here is more complicated. No one knows whether their genes can remain normal after Panacea is repaired.

And it's not just a genetic problem, those highly activated flesh and blood can even activate contaminated metals.

Iax does not feel that Logan and his bodyguards want to become an alternative biomechanical fusion.

While Space Wolves were still in a mood, Holographic Projection beside them suddenly changed.

A figure beyond everyone's imagination appeared in the center of the projection.

And the voice of Jaghatai suddenly sounded.

"Grey Knights?"
