The man who asked the question just looked at Dax.
There was ignorance and a hint of immaturity in his eyes, which is typical of young people.
There is no malice at all, just pure curiosity.
When Dax saw those eyes, he was reminded of the spring when he was fifteen years old.
That is the youth that I can never get back.
He was just fifteen years old and had not yet joined the army.
It was not until a year later that he joined the army as a rookie.
Next to the old tree and well at the entrance of the village.
He once looked at a man with the same curious eyes as the young man today and asked him a question.
The man boasted that he had sex with ten women in one night.
Dax asked the man, if there were eleven people sharing one bed, wouldn't the bed collapse
At that time, the man's eyes were wide open and he even forgot to close his mouth.
Those eyes seemed to be saying, are you kidding me
At this moment, Dax finally understood.
That guy must be feeling exactly the same as I am feeling now.
I tell you, I can kill rats as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, and I am invincible.
You're asking me here if my eyes are dry!
Dax was about to speak.
Spit out the phlegm in your heart.
The airship pilot shouted.
"A high concentration of dimensional energy has been detected. We may have reached the territory of the ratmen."
After hearing this, everyone who had gathered around Dax to listen to the story dispersed.
He trotted back to his post.
The same is true for the young man who asked the question.
Seeing his eager and reluctant look, it was obvious that he really wanted an answer.
“What’s the reading!
Dax straightened his clothes.
He walked over to the navigator standing in front of the control console.
The brass instrument is extremely shiny, and the pointer inside swings back and forth with the changes in the environment.
Thumb-thick, shiny pipes connected the instruments.
The detected data is presented on the instrument through a precise mechanical mechanism.
Dax took one look at the reading and gave up decisively.
He is a reckless man and the work of a scholar is not suitable for him.
The technology involved in building an airship is extremely sophisticated.
It requires a full understanding of the principles and laws of the subspace and the real universe in order to use those steel pipes, bearings, bolts, pulleys and gear chains to build a spaceship that can fly in the sky.
The furnace rumbled and throbbed like a huge steam engine.
The deck was also shaking slightly.
If you walk into the bottom cabin, you can see a group of engineers busy at work.
A huge egg-shaped metal structure provides power for the suspended airship.
That is the furnace core of the airship.
Forged by the sages of the empire.
It combines technologies from multiple fields of the empire.
By leveraging the etheric energy of the subspace, heavy ships can fly in the air.
Complex runes and pipes are spread throughout the hull, forming an intricate energy circuit.
The crystals installed on the pipes throughout the airship would sometimes glow with an eerie light, stimulating the metal devices covered with runes to light up or go out.
The furnace is the core of this complex system.
It pulsed rhythmically, like a human heart.
After a circle of circulation, the energy is sucked into the furnace through the ducts. After being tempered and replenished again, it will be able to stimulate the energy of those devices and be transmitted out again through the complex ducts.
The arcane devices scattered across the surface of the ship were also pulsating and flashing rhythmically, ensuring the ship's smooth flight.
"More than five thousand, close to the red line." The navigator said, "If we are not in the Demon Rat Waste City, then there may be an open-air high-purity dimensional stone vein below. The scale is definitely the largest we know of so far."
"Lookout, what can you see
Dax said into a brass sound machine.
"Nothing to be seen, my Lord. Both the upper and lower lookouts offer nothing but the miasma of the swamp."
"These damn rats hide so well!" Dax cursed under his breath.
He thought about it.
According to some surviving adventure notes and historical records, the location of the Demon Rat Ruined City should be in this area.
Now there are dimensional energy readings, could there really be a mineral vein underneath!
Thinking about the mineral vein, Dax shook his head.
How could the rat people, with their temperament, allow a dimensional stone vein to stay next to their home without mining it
Dax walked to the side of the airship, held the railing with both hands, jumped out, and saw the mottled fog below.
The mist rolled like waves.
It seems that there is really nothing.
After looking for a while, Dax turned around and shouted.
"All ships maintain the pyramid formation, blow the horn, and order all ships to fire at the ground to see if they can blow up anything."
The pilot pushed one of the power levers to adjust the speed of the airship.
There was a tremor and the roar of a furnace.
The arcane device on the bottom of the airship flickered.
The ship Dax was on accelerated slightly and became the leader of the fleet.
The airships flying many imperial double eagle flags also adjusted their positions, forming a pyramid battle formation according to their training positions.
"Fire," Dax yelled.
Like the roar of millions of thunderstorms.
All the gun barrels, torpedoes and muskets on the fleet began to roar at the same time.
Ammunition with smoke and fire roared into the fog.
There were bursts of explosions on the ground, and the surging air waves stirred up the disgusting poisonous fog.
It tore apart the miasma that had been accumulated for who knows how many years.
This allowed Dax and his companions to see a corner of the swamp.
Dax smiled.
In the torn miasma, he saw the howling Skaven.
They roared towards the sky with hateful voices and brandished their rusty swords.
The previous round of explosions resulted in the tragic deaths of many Skaven.
They had indeed arrived at the Demon Rat Ruined City and were swimming above it.
That layer of miasma not only blocked the sunlight of the Demon Rat Waste City, but also shielded the energy dissipated by the dimensional stone and weakened the propagation of sound.
This is why Dax and others could not find the Demon Rat Ruined City.
Until the fleet sailed over the towers that used dimensional stone.
The airship's device detected the dimensional energy readings and discovered the anomaly.
The rats launched a counterattack.
Rays of green light shot out from the dimensional stone tower in the Demon Rat Ruined City, piercing through the miasma and hitting the energy shield of the human airship, causing a series of ripples.
Dax ordered the fleet to counterattack and bomb the enemy with all their might.
Following his order, all the fleet's cannons roared.
Some soldiers were holding bombs and throwing them down.
When those shells and bombs landed.
It was as powerful as a volcanic eruption, raising flames and debris and causing an earth-shattering explosion.
Blow those Skaven to pieces.
Some Skaven took out bows and arrows and shot into the sky.
However, even the most powerful Skaa Ratman archers would find it difficult to shoot at the human hovercraft floating high in the sky, let alone cause damage.
The only weapons that can attack the human fleet are the dimensional stone towers built by the ratman mage team led by the Grey Prophet, and some weapons such as dimensional lightning cannons and dimensional torch cannons built by some ratman engineering warlocks that can hit hoverships.
But those tall towers and artillery pieces would often come under concentrated fire within minutes of exposing their positions.
Following a series of bombardments, the towers built by the rat mages and the cannons built by the engineering warlocks were also destroyed one after another.
The Demon Rat City quickly lost its ability to counterattack the human fleet.
Even if you can still fight back.
Those rats who were good at preserving their own strength did not dare to fight back anymore.
As long as their position is exposed, humans' concentrated fire attacks will follow.
The Demon Rat Ruined City has ushered in the most humiliating moment in thousands of years.
Humanity continues to bombard.
Destroy all those tall buildings.
The air waves and flames created by the explosion drove away the miasma.
Let the demon rat nests that have been shrouded in darkness finally see the light of day again.
"Keep bombing." Dax felt genuinely happy when he heard the wailing of the ratmen on the ground and saw their miserable and painful appearance.
He always found a lot of fun dealing with those damn ratmen.
But those cunning beasts soon found a way to deal with the bombing and abandoned the surface.
All moved underground.
Even the dimensional stone buildings were quickly dismantled and sent underground.
That's their base camp.
The cave cities built by the ratmen underground are far larger than those on the surface.
Their roots are underground, not on the surface.
After reducing all the buildings on the ground to ruins and confirming that there were no more ratmen on the surface, Dax ordered a landing operation.
The fleet brought by Dax consisted of more than four hundred ships.
The fleet consists of attack airships, transport ships, multi-purpose landing craft, bombing boats and other flying ships.
A total of 15,000 elite trained human soldiers participated in the war.
There are also a large number of engineers and migrant workers providing logistical support.
His expedition against the demon rats this time can be described as a full-scale expedition.
Not only did they take away all the hovercraft built in Middenheim, but they also took along all the officers and soldiers who had been trained during this period and who understood tactics and knew how to operate new equipment.
There are also a large number of migrant workers who were originally used for construction.
This battle is only to completely wipe out the Skaven.
Valyrian did not object to this.
The nobility has collapsed, and all of humanity will be united.
A victory over an alien race will greatly increase the Holy Emperor's influence on the world.
Let them know what a difference the banner of the Holy Emperor will make in them.
A flat area was chosen as the landing zone.
The first to be launched were the steam-powered war robots - the Rippers.
The Ripper is five meters tall, as big as a house, and is protected by a thick iron shell.
It is operated by four humans in the cockpit.
The appearance is humanoid in design.
The overall material is wood and steel treated with special technology.
A steam furnace is built in to provide power.
The water is not heated by inefficient energy sources such as wood or coal, but by energy stones.
One of the Ripper's mechanical arms is equipped with a serrated wheel, while the other arm is equipped with an automatic cannon.
The two huge jet pipes on the back are responsible for discharging unusable steam and heat to avoid excessive heat.
Fisher, a former junior officer in the Middenheim defense army, has now seen his status rise again and again.
Now he has become the commander of the mechanized forces.
He and his men were the first to land.
Five Rippers were deployed to the landing site immediately.
When it was still more than ten meters away from the ground, the hovercraft used a zipline to drop these heavy war weapons.
When they landed, the screams of the ratmen rang out, and they poured out from all directions and pounced on the five Rippers.
The Rat's Wasteland is the first city given to the Skaven by the Horned Rat, and it is also the homeland where the Skaven rose to power.
The human invasion filled all the ratmen clans with anger.
Just because they have retreated underground doesn't mean they will give up.
When the Rippers landed, they launched a counterattack.
They want to let humans know that this is a place they cannot set foot in.
The Ratmen's counterattack had already been predicted by several commanders of Dax.
Those beasts are not a race that gives up easily.
"For the holy, bright, all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire," Fisher shouted. "Fight for his glory."
"For the sake of the holy light, the all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire."
"For the sake of the holy light, the all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire."
"For the sake of the holy light, the all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire."
"For the sake of the holy light, the all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire."
The other four Rippers also responded to Fisher's battle cry.
They had not met the Holy Emperor himself.
One can only hear the stories of the Holy Emperor from Valerian and those with mechanical prosthetic limbs, and see the glory of the Holy Emperor from the projections they provide.
The Holy Emperor is the monarch destined to rule the universe.
He is the savior of countless human beings scattered throughout the heavens and all realms.
All those who are suffering will be happy because of her appearance.
All dead souls no longer have to fear being snatched away by evil gods, but will instead go to the realm of the Holy Emperor, where they will sleep in bliss.
The Skaven swarmed over them, screaming and roaring madly.
Fisher operated the Ripper to attack.
The high-speed rotating teeth easily cut through the Skaven's weapons.
Cut off their dirty bodies.
A ratman in rusty armor was cut by the Ripper's chainsaw.
Without a moment's pause, the high-speed rotating saw teeth slid across its body, splitting it in two amid the ratman's painful howls.
Bright red blood gushed out, and the intestines flowed out with it.
The scene was so bloody and brutal that it was hard to look at it.
In just a moment, the Ripper was painted red with blood.
The automatic cannon of another robotic arm was also firing.
Bang! Bang!
The gunfire was deafening.
The powerful bullets have a terrible penetrating effect and can also cause explosions.
The ratman that was hit collapsed like a swollen bubble.
Breaking like overripe fruit.
A deep red blood mist gushed out from each shattered corpse.
The ratmen attacked the five Rippers in a frenzy.
But nothing worked.
Countless rat-men corpses fell in a pool of blood, wailing in pain.
Even the massive Skaven Trolls are no match for the Ripper.
The circular saw teeth easily cut his body, blood spurted out, and he died screaming.
The massacre by the Wutai Rippers created conditions for the landing of other troops.
Several steam tanks were also lowered by zip lines.
They made rumbling roars, like monsters awakening.
Six huge iron wheels churned the ground beneath their feet.
The tall smoke pipe installed at the rear belches out billowing steam.
The front of the steam tank has a ram wrapped in metal.
Extending from it were huge, ruthless iron spikes.
Like the Ripper, the Steam Tank is riveted with thick steel plates, making it less susceptible to damage.
The Skaven's dimensional guns and bows and arrows could only make crackling sounds when hitting it, but could not cause any substantial damage.
In the heavy armor on both sides of the steam tank, there are rows of shotgun muzzles and flamethrower muzzles.
The steam tanks and the ripper form an indestructible line of defense.
They moved forward while firing shells.
The iron spikes pierced the ratman's body easily.
The flames ignited the ratmen who wanted to attack the steam tank.
Their fur sizzled in the flames and emitted a foul odor.
The shotgun muzzles on both sides also sprayed out small pellets in clusters.
The ratmen at close range were riddled with holes, and many of them had their heads blown off.
The ratmen were kept out by the Steam Tanks and the Rippers.
The spacecraft began to descend, releasing the soldiers they were carrying.
"For the sake of the holy light, the all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire."
"For the sake of the holy light, the all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire."
"For the sake of the holy light, the all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire."
... ...
Loud shouts continued to be heard one after another.
Human soldiers generally wear a full set of armor engraved with special runes.
These armors possess terrifying defensive capabilities, yet are light enough not to require the wearer to expend too much energy.
In his hand he held an automatic rifle specially made to adapt to this world.
Thousands of humans fired on the Skaven waves with automatic rifles.
A terrifying firepower network was formed, harvesting ratmen in large numbers.
In the absence of oil, the exploration team found a different way and established an alternative industrial civilization through electricity and magic.
To this end, the soldiers also used thermal weapons with the style of industrial civilization.
As for energy weapons, the reason why they did not appear is that the weapons of the Industrial Age are enough for the exploration team to conquer the world.
Moreover, more resources should be put into building outposts and finding alternatives to petroleum derivatives.
Dax also joined the battle.
The violent rats poured out from underground like a tide. The scene could only be described as crazy.
The transport ship released a group of small attack airships.
They are generally operated by one person and equipped with automatic miniature machine guns.
Using its high maneuverability, it continuously provides fire support to the ground in the air.
Use machine guns to crazily fire at the ratmen on the ground to relieve the pressure on the ground troops.
To be honest, this was a massacre against the Skaven.
In just a few minutes, thousands of ratmen died tragically.
The number of casualties continues to rise.
However, the rat man showed no fear.
As one ratman fell, more rushed up to fill their place.
However, their fate is nothing more than repeating the tragedy of the former.
Dax rushed into the rat tide, still using the same two-handed power sword as before.
The activated power field leaps with dazzling arcs of electricity, making it extremely sharp and able to cut through iron like mud.
The unique rat-man stench of the Demon Rat Waste City mixed with the pungent humid air. Even if the helmet has a filter, the disgusting smell can still be smelled.
Dax almost vomited because of this.
After so many battles, only these damn ratmen could produce such a strong and disgusting stench.
The green sickly dimensional stone light was shining in the ruins, and everything was green, giving the illusion of a ghost.
A large number of ragged slave rats, armed with all kinds of rusty and filthy weapons, rushed towards Dax.
The two-handed power sword in his hand flew and danced, and any enemy who tried to get close to him was killed with one sword.
Before long, there were ratmen corpses all around him.
Many ratmen were chopped off by his sword and scattered on the ground.
Broken limbs, heads and intestines can be seen everywhere.
A massive rat-man warlord has set his sights on Dax.
It was much larger than any other Skaven, as huge and strong as a grizzly bear in a dense forest.
Those terrible muscles were as thick as the ropes used to moor ships.
Covered in heavy, rusted steel armor.
When it moves, the ground shakes.
Looks like it could smash through a stone wall with ease.
Their tails swung back and forth like whips, making whizzing sounds through the air.
He held a huge mace in his hand, which was inlaid with a large number of metal spikes and glowed with a strange green light.
It was obvious that it was smeared with something like plague poison.
Even a small scratch would kill instantly.
The tattered banner tied behind the huge body was full of heads.
The Skaven Warlord's red eyes were filled with pure malice, and his mouth was dripping with foul saliva.
It rushed towards Dax, the mace in its hand crackling in the air.
The deafening sound makes people's eardrums hurt.
Dax bent down and lowered his body, and the mace whizzed past his head with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
If it was just a few seconds later, he would have been thrown out.
The Imperial Armor has a defensive capability beyond imagination.
But Dadakx is still just a man of flesh and blood, not an immortal god.
The Skaven Warlord would hit him like a baseball, breaking bones or a cracked head.
A disgusting smell mixed with animal feces, stinking sewers and rotting corpses emanated from the rat warlord's body and poured into Dax's nostrils.
It made his stomach churn.
This is the worst part about fighting the Skaven.
Dax dodged to the side and just happened to get behind the other person.
Wait until the other person turns around.
He squatted and thrust forward suddenly, and the long sword pierced into the opponent's abdomen and went down a little like piercing tofu.
That's an important place.
Whenever a race has gender divisions, that's where it matters.
Rat people have amazing reproductive capacity, which means they will seek out female mice to express their affection anytime and anywhere.
Therefore, they also have a well-developed reproductive system.
Anger and fear flashed in the eyes of the rat warlord. He opened his mouth, revealing his disgusting, sharp teeth, and let out a deafening roar.
It raised its huge mace, wanting to beat to death the human who had taken away its glory.
Dax chopped off its legs with one sword, causing it to lose balance and fall.
Amid the rat warlord's screams of pain, Dax walked forward and slashed his forehead with his sword, splitting the hard skull and announcing his death.
The monster's eyes gradually dimmed and blurred, and it died immediately.
Dax smiled and raised his bloody sword. "For the sake of the holy, bright, all-knowing and all-mighty Emperor of the Empire, kill all these sewer rats."
The suspended transport ship continued to drop off its passengers.
The fully armed soldiers formed small battle formations and continued to advance.
These soldiers are trained in the manner of the Imperial Astra Militarum and are equipped with full body armor, automatic rifles and bayonets, as well as daggers for close combat.
The automatic rifle has a far greater range than the Empire's muskets and the Skaven's dimensional guns.
It uses a magazine, unlike the Ratman's dimensional gun which requires reloading after each shot.
The sound of gunfire continued, and ratmen were constantly knocked down by bullets.
The ratmen rushed over like a wave, leaving behind piles of corpses.
But they are still very crazy, trying to shorten the distance between them and human soldiers by making massive sacrifices.
However, when they got close enough, the heavy machine guns and mortars positioned on the soldiers' high ground began to roar.
The heavy machine gun has a firing rate of up to 300 rounds per second.
The high-speed flying bullet instantly tore the rat man's body apart.
The mortars bombarded the gathered ratmen in a targeted manner.
The landing shells instantly blew away piles of ratmen.
The piled-up rat-men corpses met the same fate.
The charging ratmen lost their cover and were slaughtered again by human soldiers.
We continue to make heavy sacrifices, but cannot make any progress.
The warlord who commanded the Skaven attack could hardly afford such a loss.
A strange horn sounded.
After realizing that they could not resist the human landing, the Skaven had no choice but to give up.
The surviving ratmen retreated back underground.
Without the interference of the ratmen, the hovercraft dropped thousands of humans.
The soldiers all wore full sets of armor.
The scholars and workers responsible for building the defenses wore protective clothing with breathing devices to avoid being knocked down by the plague gas of the ratmen.
It is not an easy task to capture the abandoned city of Demon Rat.
Crushing the ground's defenses was just the beginning.
The rat people are far more numerous underground than on the surface.
The most important thing is to completely destroy the underground part.
Someone once suggested using earth-shaking bombs to cause a collapse and bury the Skaven Empire.
After a few attempts, Dax gave up.
The ratmen's city roots are too deep.
The earth-shaking bomb can only destroy part of it and cannot hurt the deepest part.
If you want to completely get rid of the ratmen, you can only kill them in their nests with real weapons.
After consolidating the defense of the landing site, Dax planned to attack underground.
This time there was no help from the Imperial Primaris warriors, only 15,000 soldiers recruited from the mainland.
Dax didn't have much of an issue with this.
Soldiers recruited from the local area must prove their value to the empire.
Even with the advanced weapons equipped by the Empire, they were unable to wipe out enemies like the Ratmen.
Then why did the empire spend so much effort to cultivate and train such an army
The steam machinery unit led by Fisher was responsible for staying behind.
Steam machinery is generally very large, and if it enters a narrow underground space, it can easily be destroyed by the enemy's concentrated fire.
Putting them on the surface to wipe out the ratmen who dare to show up and providing good logistical support can better demonstrate the importance of mechanical troops.
Eradicating the Demon Rat Wasteland is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two.
Dax estimated that it would take at least a month to completely wipe out the ratmen.
By then, the ratmen from all directions will probably respond to the orders of the Thirteen Councils and rush to defend the abandoned city.
This battle won't end so easily.
Dax selected a group of elite soldiers to serve as the vanguard along with himself.
These elites were all selected from the private guards carefully trained by the nobles.
Each of them is a full-time soldier who has been trained on how to kill the enemy since childhood.
It is the support of the nobles.
After the fall of Altdorf, many nobles were taken prisoner.
These soldiers were also accepted by the exploration team and retrained.
... ... ...
"For the sake of the holy light, the omniscient and omnipotent emperor of the empire, we must kill every ratman." Dax said: "Don't be afraid, and don't be timid. When you have completed your mission, your souls will be taken away by the holy emperor and sleep in her heaven."
After giving the soldiers his customary motivational speech, Dax ordered the assault.
The assault team brought high-intensity lighting equipment.
Those devices can illuminate the passage as brightly as day, and can also make the ratmen staying in the dark so stimulated by the strong light that they cannot open their eyes.
Relying on advanced firearms and Dax's crazy slaughter, the vanguard quickly shattered the ratmen's surface defenses and entered the intricate network of underground passages.
The winding loops and interlaced tunnels echoed with the screams of the ratmen and the sounds of firearms and commands.
Other troops were responsible for maintaining the places captured by the commandos and ensuring logistical supplies.
Tunnels extend in all directions.
Dax had no intention of taking every tunnel.
If we do that, no matter how many people we have, it won't be enough.
He only captured the main roads and set up defenses at each node of the main roads to ensure logistical supplies.
The vanguard is responsible for fighting their way into the heart of the rat city.
Strive to destroy the Temple of the Horned Rat and the Council of Thirteen.
Both are key to Skaven unity.
If these two are destroyed, the morale of the rat people will drop sharply and they will become vulnerable to being slaughtered.
The fighting in the underground tunnels became even more intense.
The Skaven defend their capital with all possible means.
The Thirteen Councils also knew that they had to defend the Demon Rat Ruined City, which was the base camp of all the major clans.
Once taken away by humans, it will cause an unimaginable blow to the morale of the rat people.
The members of the Thirteen Councils were like crazy, continuously issuing orders, requiring each clan to send out their elite troops and take out their various treasured weapons.
Some weapons that had not yet been completed were moved out of the workshop.
The two sides engaged in an unimaginable brutal fight.
The promoted Udi also participated in this battle.
He led his team to patrol back and forth in the dank tunnels to ensure the smooth flow of logistics routes.
Fierce fighting was commonplace, and signalmen could be seen running back and forth at all times, calling for reinforcements from follow-up troops.
Bright lights illuminate those dark tunnels.
The ratmen with red or green eyes came in like a tide.
The deployed heavy machine guns roared continuously, forming a firepower network and tearing the ratmen into pieces.
After a battle, there are often broken limbs and arms all over the ground.
The barrel of the machine gun was also deformed due to high temperature and excessive shooting during the high-intensity combat.
The barrel will need to be replaced every once in a while.
Of course, attacking the ratmen's underground city is not without cost.
Those rat-man wizards who master special witchcraft often cause casualties to the team.
There are also some rat assassins who would hide among the corpses of their own kind, and when humans pass by, they would suddenly rush out and stab the plague-infected dimensional stone swords into the soldiers' bodies.
Their weapons are extremely vicious and can take a soldier's life in seconds.
They must be careful enough to avoid being ambushed by those despicable rat people.
... ... .
The ratmen's numbers are their one great advantage.
Their warpstone magic and engineering creations are another advantage.
Dax led his elite veterans and pierced the ratmen's defense like spears.
The other troops were there to provide cover for them, assist in defending the intricate tunnel networks, and protect their logistics from being cut off by the ratmen.
The narrow tunnel could not accommodate a large-scale army, so they had to divide into small teams, seize important nodes, and slaughter the ratmen.
The team led by Dax rushed the fastest.
After another brutal fight, the rats left behind a huge number of corpses and fled into the intricate tunnels.
They thought the enemy would give up some territory out of fear, but when Dax and the others just turned a corner in a tunnel, they saw a group of ratmen with dimensional guns setting up defenses at a node.
A dimensional stone tower glowing green light shines with a sickly light, bursting out with heart-wrenching lightning.
When Dax and others appeared, the ratmen with weapons also opened fire and threw bombs carrying plague gas.
Amid the booming explosion, the plague and poisonous gas spread unbridled.
The dimensional stone bullets flew in the air, leaving strange green trails that sparkled in the night sky.
"Blast those rats," Dax ordered his team.
The two soldiers carrying bazookas carried out the order without hesitation.
They stood up from the bunker, simply calibrated the target, and pulled the trigger.
Two rockets, trailing brilliant flames, roared forward.
A huge explosion shook the tunnel.
The dimensional stone tower was blown to pieces, and the rat man was blown away and hit the wall like a rag bag.
"Kill." Dax roared and rushed forward waving his sword.
The ratmen were frightened and fled in all directions, but were caught up by Dax and his men, who knocked them down and killed them one by one.
"For the holy light, the omniscient and omnipotent Emperor of the Empire." Dax walked among the corpses of the ratmen and roared.
The other soldiers responded with the same shout.
They broke through the defenses built by the ratmen time and time again.
Killed their way deep into the ground and into the solid rock plates.
Broken rat carcasses could be seen everywhere along the way.
They arrived at a vast underground space.
There is an exquisite and magnificent temple there.
Countless huge ratmen stood in front of the temple, ready to fight against the human invaders.
There are rat archers, rat trolls, huge rat warlords, rat mages and priests wielding green staffs.
In the front are the ratmen holding giant shields, and behind them are the firearms troops holding dimensional rifles, dimensional stone muskets, and dimensional flamethrowers.
A little further back, one can see a large number of dimensional stone towers emitting green light, the Gatling-like rat rifles placed on the battlefield, as well as the huge wheels of destruction and dimensional lightning cannons.
It is in stark contrast to the sloppy and dirty rat people and the exquisite and clean temple.
Obviously, that temple is the temple of the Horned Rat, the god worshipped by the rat people.
When Dax and others appeared
The rats all howled and all kinds of firearms opened fire at once.
The tunnels were completely destroyed by the intensive explosions and gunfire.
If this piece of land was not made entirely of stone, it would have collapsed in the explosion.
After the firearms forces pushed back the humans, the ratmen assassins armed with warpstone daggers swarmed into the tunnels, wanting to kill those worlds that dared to invade their home.
Unfortunately, in front of the weapons of Dax and others, the rat assassins were knocked down in rows.
They were not supposed to be used on the front lines.
Sneak attacks and assassinations are their areas of expertise.
The problem is that the humans are too close to the Horned Rat's main temple.
The members of the Council of Thirteen no longer cared about that.
Even if it means sacrificing the lives of rats, we must force those damn humans to retreat.
Dax was not afraid of the surging tide of rats.
He slaughtered the ratmen with the two-handed sword in his hand as if he was cutting melons and vegetables.
The other team members relied on him to shoot at the ratmen.
At first they fell into a slump.
The number of ratmen is too large.
However, as time goes by.
Other teams also arrived one after another and launched attacks from other directions.
Forced the ratmen defending the temple to disperse their forces.
This greatly reduced the pressure on Dax and others, and they launched a counterattack.
With the bombardment of various grenades and rocket launchers, the defense line built by the ratmen with various dimensional stone creations was shattered.
After the brutal fight, the battlefield in front of the temple was littered with corpses and burning debris.
There were countless dead ratmen, including a few human corpses.
The bright red blood is about to stain the walls of the Horned Rat Temple red.
The gate of the temple was blown down.
The ratmen priests inside were slaughtered.
When the humans rushed in, they were trying to summon the Horned Rat.
A huge statue of a horned rat stands in the center of the temple.
The Big Horned Rat has several huge horns on its head. Its rat-like head and face are covered with armor. It holds a scepter in one hand and a dagger in the other.
The standing feet are first bent backwards and then forwards to form an arc.
To Dax, such sculptures had no sacredness at all, only horror and distortion.
If I have to describe it, it would be that you are my god and I am my devil.
The screams of the rat-men priests echoed in the temple.
The blood dyed the temple of the Horned Rat red and even splashed on the sculptures of the Horned Rat.
After Dax killed the last ratman priest, he walked up to the statue of the horned rat.
I just wanted to swing my sword to destroy it.
