"Defensive formation!"
Soshyan's eyes widened with anger, and he hit the deformed skull of the monster holding the warrior with a bolter. The thing let go of the target and struggled for a long time before dying.
But it had pierced the warrior's helmet, bruised his face, and broken his nose.
"pharmacist."
Soshyan pulled the soldier up and saw blood gushing out from his nose and mouth, so he handed him over to the pharmacist on the side.
More howls sounded, and the clawed demons were stimulated by the blood of their own kind, and rushed over madly, through the fog and ruins.
But at the same moment a figure ran towards them through the mist; a figure brandishing a sword.
Soshiyang was like a wave in the trees, waving the Holy Sword, guiding it to slash at the enemy, leaving a trail of scarlet behind him.
The claws of the Claw Demon cut sparks from the Terminator armor, but Soshyan was undaunted and swept through like a prairie fire, just for killing, always ready to embrace death.
Afterwards, Talos also rushed forward, and the two of them chopping melons and vegetables directly dealt with the clawed demons that rushed forward.
They did not stop until the last one was eliminated, and at this time there were more than thirty mutilated corpses lying on the ground.
"This is a group that seems to be showing signs of becoming feral."
After examining the bodies of the dead claw demons, Talos overturned his previous theory.
"They may have had an owner before, but they probably don't have one now."
Soshiyang looked towards the direction in which these claw demons were pouring out, and could vaguely see large walls and large tracts of ruins everywhere. The huge vaulted ceiling had probably succumbed to gravity countless years ago and fell to the ground.
The wreckage stretches endlessly into the thick fog.
"Let's go and have a look,"
Following the path of the wreckage, through the fog, everyone discovered a new space.
This new clearing is really unusually large. It occupies a space of almost fifty meters high and a diameter of two hundred meters. It does not appear to be naturally formed. There are arches above the clearing made of twisted vines and spiritual bones. The ceiling looks like some weird gardener built a cave out of plants.
Strange plants shone with phosphorescence, adding some weird blue-green shimmer to the place. A huge flat stone structure that was almost thirty meters high and sixty meters wide stood quietly in the shadows in the center of the clearing.
It reminded everyone of a giant toad lying on the ground ready to ambush unwary insects.
Soshyan slowly approached the structure, and the others followed behind, guarding him while looking around.
They all realized the need to investigate here, but also felt a frightening sense of unease.
Soshyan felt that this feeling could only be experienced on a silent battlefield, surrounded by pain and death, but he seemed to be attracted by an invisible magnet.
From the surrounding soldiers' actions of constantly checking their weapons and checking their surroundings, he felt their uneasiness. When Soshyan reached the bottom of the hidden structure, he turned on the second lighting on the armor. A bright light reveals much more than a plant's phosphorescence.
Countless stones form a huge, layered pyramid-shaped temple.
He couldn't tell whether the temple was carved from a giant rock or a carefully constructed structure. Countless grinning faces emerged from the stone's surface, some human, others They were Eldar, some insectoid and animalistic, and some completely unrecognizable.
Everyone's first impression is that this place is the residence of an ancient demon. Although there is no better reason than ancient superstition, Soshyan also believes that this place must be connected to Chaos in some way.
After so many events, he always doubted Chaos.
Other members of the team also used their own bright lights to fight against the dark and silent atmosphere of the temple. Slowly, the warriors stood in a circle around the temple, studying it, looking for clues to its age and purpose. symbols and signs.
The sides of the stone steps are decorated with sculptures in the shape of flames, as well as symbols such as eyes, bones and other symbols.
After confirming that nothing more would be found below, Soshyan led several people to climb up the stairs, while others stood on guard at the bottom of the structure.
On the third level of the temple, they discovered an opening. Carved on the wall outside the passage is a scorpion grasped by a pair of flaming hands.
Seeing this weird symbol, the hair on Soshiyang's neck stood up subconsciously - he didn't like it here.
Despite the dangers, there was one thing they had to do.
"We should go inside."
he declared.
"Are you crazy? You just want to get into an unknown temple?"
Talos interrupted immediately.
"There is a saying in the Eye of Fear: Don't listen to any messages, and don't enter temples. These are all words of experience. Demons like to stay in abandoned temples and use their voices to lure the ignorant."
Soshyan also hesitated. He put his hand on the door of the temple, understanding that Talos was telling the truth. It was indeed unwise to rush into an unfamiliar temple.
But what he didn't notice was that his hand happened to be resting on the symbol.
Suddenly, a strong suction force came from the dark door. Soshyan didn't react at all, and the whole person was dizzy and fell into the darkness.
In the end, he only heard Talos's panicked cry and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
"No, the door-"
It wasn't until a few minutes later that he broke free from his dizziness.
At first, he thought it was some kind of witchcraft, so he immediately activated the gray marrow, but when he looked carefully, he found that there was no demon and he was in a hall.
The hall was dark, except for a large number of statues with twisted and weird shapes. They were sharp, ugly, and indescribable.
Then he saw a light behind a door, and Soshyan walked through the door warily.
As soon as he entered the room, the shining light disappeared before his eyes.
Taking a closer look, he saw that a wide space was divided between two rows of pillars, with dark corridors on both sides. A large number of skulls were piled on a stone slab in the center of the room, with dying flames beeping on it. Sound.
On the pillars, there were countless torches inserted into the iron candlesticks, emitting an unpredictable light that could complement the red glow of the fireside.
The room was crowded with humanoids, numerous in number.
The reason why they are said to be humanoid is because it is difficult for Soshyan to judge whether they are human beings. Their outlines are roughly human-shaped, but their ebony-black skin is covered with disgusting runes, and their faces are constantly... The changes are distorted, one is a faceless mask, the other is a bloody mouth full of fangs.
