Warhammer 40: Gods Of Mortals

Chapter 652 Skinners

Coupled with the sudden arrival of the conspiracy group, Chen Ye and Yaoen once again embarked on a journey to find the original body.

But this time it was not an aimless search, but a direct trip to the webway coordinates given by Arrow.

When they arrived at the target location, everyone saw the ruins of a gorgeous building that had been blown up.

Chen Ye took out the detector and scanned it, and found that there was indeed a network entrance here. At least up to this point, Arrow had not deceived them.

"Before entering the webway here, there is something I must tell you."

Arrow's octopus-like lower body squirmed back and forth, supporting her upright upper body to move on the ground.

"There is a shelter within this webway."

"Don't get me wrong, it's not the kind of air-raid shelter you humans imagine, just a planet-sized facility, but a... in your words, a facility as big as a city."

"It was originally used to hide from the eyes of hungry ladies, but something happened and it was abandoned. After that, it became a garbage dump. No matter how dangerous things are, they will be stuffed as long as they are not used. Get inside.”

The Cabal Archon made a direct confession about the Webway's past and its condition.

These words were completely true, so true that Arrow's subordinates looked at Arrow with strange eyes, completely unable to figure out what their boss's state of mind was at this time.

"I understand." Chen Ye nodded, "I have a question, why do you want to help us?"

"Because Li Sun knew that you were looking for the original body, she used a relic of the Ancient Spirit Empire in exchange for my help." Arrow replied calmly.

Chen Ye nodded.

And Yaoen discovered a problem, that is, Li Sun is no longer in the webway. She had already brought the rewards from the Star Zone and the things she searched in the Dark City before the final strategy was formulated. leave.

Arrow betrayed her relatives and kindred for the Ancient Eldar Empire and joined the humans in attacking Commorragh. It is not impossible for her to help humans again for the relics.

But Li Sun was gone, and it was unlikely that she would find another relic.

But Yaoen thought that he had only heard about these things. What if Ai Rui made a deal with Li Sun before she left?

Regardless, the Dark Eldar Archon's motives have always been a mystery.

"Who is Ms. Thirsty?" Chen Ye asked while using a detector to open the network channel.

"Ms. Thirsty, Prince of Darkness, these are two different names for the same existence. I don't want to say its name." Arrow responded vaguely.

Yaoen wanted to persuade Chen Ye to consider it. After all, the motives of the Dark Eldar Archon in front of him had not yet been discovered.

What if this web tunnel is a trap?

But the reaction of the Dark Eldar was beyond Yao En's expectations. Under the leadership of Arrow, her members of the conspiracy entered the webway first, and then immediately took out various items used to detect threats.

The cabal walked in front, and the Space Marines followed behind with bewildered faces, watching the aliens find various traps along the way for them, and detect every possible route in this maze-like webway shelter. .

It's as if the Chogoris Eagle is not Chen Ye's genetic father, but Arrow's genetic father. In order to find him, Arrow no longer cares about anything, including giving up his back to the alien race. .

"This damn place looks like a maze."

As Chen Ye followed the cabal through various traps designed to kill the terrifying beings in the Webway, he looked around.

Every building here looks very old but spotless. Something furtive in the shadows is watching for uninvited visitors entering the Webway.

At first Yao En and Chen Ye thought it was an ambush set by Arrow, until one of the things hidden in the shadows suddenly attacked. Under the fire of the weapons in the hands of the Cabal soldiers and Space Marines, they saw clearly that it was not a dark spirit. The tribe is just a weird creature that seems to be born with anti-gravity capabilities.

It's like a flying monster with tentacles, and it wasn't created by the Haemonculi.

Fortunately, these creatures were not very strong. After quickly destroying them, everyone moved on.

The Dark Eldar, who were in control of the situation in the webway shelter, were still walking at the front, and the others followed behind, slowly removing the traps set along the way and moving forward slowly.

Along the way, everyone encountered all kinds of strange creatures, but Chen Ye, Yaoen and the Khan Guards were all used to it. At first glance, it was clear that this webway shelter was used to imprison terrible beings after it was abandoned. prison.

Fortunately, all the enemies encountered along the way are not too strong to be dealt with.

After the conspiracy group led by Arrow once again lifted a trap that could kill everyone, Tielutai in the team was suddenly shocked and reported to Chen Yehui: "Khan! There is someone in front!"

Chen Ye had seen it a long time ago.

About two hundred meters ahead, there were two people shivering in the dim light, calling for warmth.

They appear to be of human structure, and judging from their size, they should be very young.

It was also accompanied by a low whimpering sound.

"Hey, kids!" A white-scarred warrior put down his bolter and shouted to the two children in front, "There is a trap here, stay where you are, we'll be there right away!"

"I suggest you kill them." Arrow motioned to his men to disarm the traps ahead and continue moving forward.

After getting closer, everyone saw the two children clearly.

Those were not two children, but two guys who looked exactly like the Necron, but squatting on the ground.

But it is not without reason that Space Marines mistake them for humans, because they are covered in human skin, and their skulls are made of living metal with human facial features.

White Scar had fought against the Necron before, and Chen Ye instantly figured out what those two things were. They were obviously Necron warriors called Skinners.

Yao En knew more than Chen Ye. He knew that the skinned ones were born because they were cursed by the Star God Landugal, and became extremely hungry for living flesh and blood, thinking that they were wearing biological tissues on their bodies. Enough to transform back into a Necrontyr.

Most of those Skinners came from the Menak dynasty, and even individuals infected with the Skinner virus would become followers of Landugal, whom they had personally killed and hated so much.

"Woo." The two skinners looked around, imitating the behavior of children and making children's cries.

Arrow took off her anti-matter rifle from her back and pointed it at the two Skinners who were imprisoned here by her ancestors.

But just as the Archon and others were preparing to fire, a large number of Skinners emerged from the nearby darkness. One of them, a large Skinner covered in Dark Eldar skin and holding a scepter, threw a sphere.

"Hide..." Arrow's roar was about to come out, and then she and the conspiracy guards around her stopped moving and speaking.

Then they uncannily backed up, making the same moves they had made before, saying the same words they had said before, until they finally walked all the way back to the starting point of the Webway Sanctuary.
