Warhammer 40: Gods Of Mortals

Chapter 42 Welcome to the Nest
While New Cato has been established and most have jobs to do, there will never be a shortage of bounty hunters in Bottomhive.

Through their previous performance in the war, the bounty hunter group has been rewarded by Qin Mo, that is, they can still use their identities as bounty hunters to move around, but they have to hand over what they have obtained during their operations.

The things you turn in will be turned into throne coins, which can buy more food or weapons and equipment.

Underground seven hundred kilometers away from New Cato, a team of seven bounty hunters is fighting.

The warring parties were in a long, thin corridor.

The bounty hunter hid behind an energy shield and exchanged fire with the rebel aliens and psykers who kept crawling in the distance.

"Is the bolter warmed up?!"

"Her name isn't a bolter, her name is Reyna."

"Okay, okay, is Reina warming up?"

"All right."

A bounty hunter carrying a multi-barreled heavy weapon squeezed from the rear of his companions to the front. When he aimed the "Lena" in his hand at the rebels, a bracket automatically extended from under the weapon and stuck to the ground.

After the gun barrel rotated rapidly for two seconds, a large number of bullets poured to the other end of the passage.

Every time a bullet hits, it will explode, and the aliens on the passage wall will be scattered. Occasionally, some bone fragments or shrapnel will fly, but they will also be stopped by the energy shield.

The aliens on the wall couldn't take half a step forward under this kind of firepower.

But the main reason is that the body parts of the aliens are swollen, and huge blisters are squeezed out from under the hard bone armor. Some of the aliens even have swollen hands and feet, and they can only walk forward with a limp.

This is a group of weaklings, they are already dying, and the bounty hunter hastened the process of their death.

"Dead...dead..." The rebel psyker limped to the front, his blistered hand raised to release his psychic power.

"Yao En!" When the captain shouted, a ragged young man squeezed forward from the back of the line, he knew what to do without any more orders.

Yao En stepped forward, and the others covered while advancing.

When everyone covered Yao En and approached within 20 meters of the psyker, the psyker couldn't even maintain the psychic spells on his body, first his arms burst, and then his whole body quickly turned into liquid.

After the psyker died, the aliens screamed and burst into puddles of liquid.

"Run!"

"Hurry up, the battle with the rebels has already taken too much time!"

After the battle, all the bounty hunters didn't rest or look for trophies. They rushed forward in the passage, as if something horrible was chasing them.

After running for 10 minutes, the end of the narrow passage can already be seen.

At this moment, Yao En couldn't help but turn around.

"Don't fucking look back!"

Amidst the captain's roar of anger and worry, Yao En, who had turned his head, saw a strange shape.

It was a fat spider, its body covered with hair like steel thorns was huddled together in the tunnel, but it was still moving very fast.

And when he saw this spider, Yaoen's brain was shocked to the point of shutdown by the shock of horror and fear, and he stood there dumbfounded.

The current rebels in the Bottom Hive are not the bounty hunter's great enemy, but the mutated creatures born from the thousands of years of pollution in the Hive City are.

"Leave him alone, run!"

"hurry up!"

The captain roared and ran wildly, leading the whole team closer and closer to the exit, they could even see the light at the exit.

But the light was quickly blocked, as if someone had shut the door.

The "door" opened immediately, but what was exposed was not the light outside the passage, but a giant dark green eye.

Fear, horror, weirdness... These feelings made the bounty hunters stunned in place, unable to move as if they had been petrified.

The giant eye blinked, then moved up.

The huge mutated creature outside the passage has blocked its mouthparts at the exit, and circles of fangs extending into its throat are clearly visible.

But then a beam of light pierced through the blocked mouthparts at the exit of the passage, and the intense energy even made the entire passage hot.

A bounty hunter with an ancient temperature regulating device on his body silently turned on the cooling function.

Not long after the beam pierced through the mouthparts of the mutated creature, two people wearing Janitor Power Armor walked through the gap created by the beam, using the shotgun lasers in their hands to blast fangs or other things that would block the way along the way.

Until the two men's feet hit the metal floor.

Among the bounty hunters who have participated in the war, they can recognize the symbols on the power armor of these two guards and the people who wear them at a glance.

It was Gray and Andrea.

The bounty hunters except for Yao En scrambled towards Gray, and then hid behind his power armor.

Gray continued to move forward with a blank expression on his face, passed by the scared Yao En, walked forward ten meters, and then stared at the mutated creature coming to activate the gravity shield.

The channel was crushed and deformed by the gravity shield, and the mutated creatures were crushed under gravity.

Gray turned off the gravity shield, turned to look at everyone and asked, "Why are there such big spiders in the bottom nest? I saw that it was as big as a building!"

"It's not surprising that there are... nothing in the ancient ruins and relics."

"We...we even found female aliens in one of the ruins..."

The bounty hunters were so excited that they were about to cry, explaining in a hurry.

"Grey." Andruida walked up to Gray and said with a smile, "Welcome to officially come to the nest."

Gray nodded, suddenly recalling the stories about bounty hunters he had read as a child.

There are not only dangers in the bottom nest, but also ancient technological relics or other valuable things.

After seeing it with his own eyes, Gray realized why people in the lower nest like the story of the bounty hunter, but not many people want to be a bounty hunter.

"I advise you not to come next time." Gray warned everyone, then turned around and walked up to Yao En, trying to drag him up.

But after getting close to Yao En, Gray felt disgusted, in his eyes, Yao En was very dirty and smelly.

Although he hated Yao En, Gray still pinched his nose and stretched out his hand to pull Yao En up.

"Are you sent by God to save us?" Yaoen asked in surprise.

"No, your wife brought us here." Gray pushed Yao En, "Go home now and buy some good things to reward your wife, because if she didn't report in time, we couldn't come in time."

"It doesn't matter, in my eyes you are still God's messengers." Yao En said with a smile.

Gray saw that Yao En was not pleasing to the eye, so he didn't say much, just turned around and walked towards the end of the passage.

When leaving on the transport plane, Gray looked down at the giant spider the size of a building below, thinking how much waste did this thing eat in the bottom nest to grow like this?
And in the passage, when the bounty hunters were about to leave, Yaoen stood at the exit in a daze, looking up at the transport plane in the sky, looking very excited.
