The aliens didn't give up.
The ambush intensified when Forro led the team to the corridor outside the main hall.
The journey through the corridor turned into a mixture of blood and excitement of battle. Samurai with broken limbs, immortals armed with Gauss rifles and tough Lich Guards came in waves with cold fear.
Sharp blades and gun flames flickered in the flickering lighting, and the hissing sound of sharp tools cutting metal was extremely harsh.
Forlo's sophistication prevented many disastrous situations.
His insight allowed the team to avoid previous explosion traps twice, and once they used the opportunity of a tunnel collapse to find another way out at the last moment, and shut down all equipment except the necessary servo systems and automatic senses.
During this process, Forlo has been trying to impart his understanding to Soshyan, which seems to be a practical teaching, which makes Soshyan very puzzled.
But he will not refuse the teachings of Captain Terminator, because he also hopes to become such an experienced warrior one day - provided he can still leave here alive.
However, the odds of this happening are probably lower than if he was chosen to be a Space Marine.
Two levels away from their target, the corridor seemed empty again, and the Necron seemed to be retreating, even as the Space Marines advanced toward their center.
But when they arrived at the corridor outside the main control hall, the reason became clear.
Only the last dozen enemies were left between them and the closed door of the hall, but these undead souls were no longer the human forms they encountered before, but looked exactly like the sleeping statue Soshyan had encountered before.
This is a large spider machine that stands on short and stocky mechanical legs. Their torso is wrapped in heavy armor reinforced with adamantine bars. The thickness is no less than that of a Land Reaver.
At the front of the torso, there is a head composed of a group of optical components and a searchlight under a protective cover. Two huge hooks are installed on thick shoulder brackets, and the ends of huge pliers on both sides of the head are installed. with a terrible drill.
There were four of these giant spider guards in total, completely blocking the entrance to the gate. They were surrounded by the remains of undead and fragments of Space Marine power armor. It was obvious that they had experienced a fierce battle before.
But since they are guarding here, the situation inside must be very bad.
There wasn't much time left for them - this was the first judgment Fulo made.
These spider guards also discovered the Space Marine team at the first time. They immediately took action and advanced towards the team at their own cautious pace, like predators waiting for an opportunity.
Forlo immediately activated his power fists, and the chainswords and power swords of his other battle brothers responded to his hungry roar.
This time, the other party responded, and the air was filled with metallic sounds of heavy drill bits and waving hooks.
"Prioritize attacking the enemies on both sides. Soshyan, lead your team to attack the one on the right, and leave the one in the middle to me."
The order was given, and without any extra time to speak, the Tomb Spider staggered into hand-to-hand distance.
The next second, the first team's explosive bombs exploded harmlessly from their reinforced armor. The attacked tomb spider seemed to be frightened, suddenly accelerated and rushed over, and fired a series of thermal cutting beams from its abdomen.
Fullo held his breath and began to draw energy from the Terminator's core and directed it to his power gloves.
Lyman's Ears shielded him from the sound of chainsaw blades meeting steel as he fashioned destruction.
The next second, Superman's muscles tensed and tightened, and the metal muscle fibers of the Terminator were activated. At the same time, his keen senses were once again filled with a sticky and diffuse stench, and his temples throbbed and his vision dimmed together.
The moment the giant spider machine approached, Forro unleashed destruction.
The huge cavalry terminator rushed forward at a speed that did not conform to the structure. After blocking the opponent's giant pincers with his elbows, he touched his fists, raised them high and then dropped them with a crash - all of this happened in just a few seconds. Inside.
Facing the full blow of the Terminator, no matter how thick the armor is, it will not help.
As the ground collapsed, the Tomb Spider's head and most of its torso were smashed directly into the hard ground. Several mechanical arms twitched for a while and then stopped moving.
Beside Forlo, the battle brothers did not move.
Facing the approaching Tomb Spider, the chain saw was powerless against the thick plate armor. Although it kept scraping and biting, it was unable to penetrate.
The opponent's giant was staggering but strong.
A tomb spider grabbed an arm of a Space Marine with its claws, and then swung its claws. The vicious blade cut through the ceramite and plasteel in a splash of sparks, and penetrated into the flesh.
When the arm was removed, the Space Marine remained silent, instead wielding his chainsword and cutting off the machine's bloody appendage.
Blood and liquid metal splashed together, but the soldier continued to fight fiercely.
However, his sacrifice also brought about a moment when the Tomb Spider exposed its weakness. This moment was captured by a veteran holding a power sword. His sword stabbed directly at the connection between the spider's head and torso.
The whole body of the Tomb Spider is covered with thick armor, but there is no protection here, and then it is like nothing when the power sword penetrates.
When the veteran drew his sword, the giant tomb spider collapsed, and the leader's green optical components fell silent.
Then, another Tomb Spider crossed over the rubble and headed straight for Forlo, wielding its giant pincers.
Under the cover of a melta bomb, the Terminator unleashed his invisible rage. He first hit the enemy's torso hard with both fists, then tore off two mechanical legs and hit the enemy on the head. fist.
The front of the Tomb Spider's head immediately sunk, and its offensive suddenly stopped, and it collapsed to the ground.
On the right side, Occam fell silently, and a cutting beam cut deeply into his leg armor, almost cutting off his right calf.
Forlo immediately planned to go to support Soshiyan, but something unexpected happened.
"careful!"
The Tomb Spider, who was the first to be knocked down by Forlo, unexpectedly got up again at some point and crashed into him with the crackling sound of hard plastic steel, suppressing him to the ground with its overwhelming size.
Before Forro could get up, the Tomb Spider placed a forked mechanical foot on his breastplate, pinning him in place.
The Terminator armor's automated senses chirped warnings that the pressure would crush the entrails and shatter the Space Marine's reinforced ribs.
Not just this one, the other two that were knocked down also got up. There are also many wandering mechanical beetles on their bodies, constantly repairing the damaged bodies. These scarabs crawled out from the spider's abdomen.
The battle situation immediately took a turn for the worse, and the team began to suffer casualties one after another.
Soshiyang, who had been entangled by the tomb spider, was angry again at this moment.
He used his elbow to block the opponent's stabbing hook, and ignoring the sound of the drill biting the plastic steel, he swung the chain sword with all his strength towards the Tomb Spider's head with a roar like a primal behemoth, like a hammer hitting iron. anvil.
He managed to crush the opponent's head before his left arm was severed.
However, even when the opponent collapsed, Soshyan did not give up the attack. The chain sword continued to bite driven by his terrifying enhanced physical strength and its own reciprocating power device.
With the bite of the vicious saw teeth, the armor plate on the front half of the Tomb Spider was completely torn open, and countless razor-sharp tiny fragments were sprayed out in all directions until the saw teeth locked in place.
When the energy from the blow was finally exhausted, Soshyan pulled the weapon out and struck again.
This completely shattered the control center of the tomb spider, and the scarabs that emerged from its abdomen to attack Soshyan immediately lost their target and began to wander blindly.
In the end, the Tomb Spider was torn apart under Soshyan's heavy blows again and again, and liquid metal gushes out from the broken body.
Then Soshyan's voice spread through the communication channel like a harsh grinding sound, and he only said one word.
"kill!"
