49 Warhammer 30-40k Part 6 Not Edited (1/2)
”We cant fight all of that!” Alistair said. I watched as the spores came down taking what he said for what it was. Stating the obvious.
”At least there arent any Genestealers. Thank life for small favors.” I said to Alistair. ”Regret coming here yet?”
''Absolutely, completely and truly.” Alistair never looked away from the Tyrannid menace. ”I wish I had a giant mech to fight with. Or a small one like Jaina has.” Alistair looked over at the light Warjack Jaina had under her control. The envy was plain on his face.
”Take a good luck at it. It most likely wont look like that after this battle.”
Looking to the back group, I gave the order. ”Fire at will. Dont stop till the matrixes are in the red!”
”Shouldnt we conserve some of it?”
”No point. If the they make into our lines we are done for. With the sheer number difference we won't make it, unless we whittle them down.” I shook my head as I watch the endless drop down. The psykers had barriers to deflect any drop ends back into the distance. Only a few would be of use to attack. I had a spell set up outside where in they entered from warp space. Once the wave stopped coming or I had no choice, I would activate it.
”This is slightly a problem.” I said to Alistair who stared at me. ”Absolute Water Rain!” I channeled the spell I was casting for the last hour. With the help of my Soul Power I was able to reach furthur than I realized with energy range. All across the sky I created little needles of physic water. Raising Slannesh up above me , I focused some of his power as well. the needle became bigger that people with decent eyesight could see them now.
Jaina stepped forward in her white Guyver suit. ”Chish,” the breathing attachment vented. She and a group of psykers with her raised their hands up. they waited to my needs hit before firing.
”Ting, ting, ting is all that could be heard across the sky. A giant arc of lighting appeared from Jainas hands that danced in the air uncontrollably. The rest of the warlocks fired next. their shots were precise but smaller. there targets were the giant pods that were descending.
This list for only two minutes before a giant pod came down. it was about the size of the empire state building! It was covered in a black fog that stopped the psyker attacks on contact.
Seeing that I order every one to stop the assault.
”Thud!” The chitinous building landed in the distance. A wave a black smoke statted to head towards us.
”Damn! Brave for impact. Redirecting the remainderof my spell from above, I pulled it down to help with my next spell.”Water Veil!” The aquatic membrane formed and spread out. I felt Slannesh pump physic energy into me. Then I felt the warlocks send some my way as well. Bit by bit a strange energy left the gladiators and the civilians and headed my way. A notice popped out that I ignored I couldn't afford the distraction.
My soul power helped funnel the energy and increased the veil. When the smog made contact I could feel a type of contagion inside it. If this would have hit the troops we would have had a shorter battle. ”Mental Cleansing!” I said as I braced my feet. The energy added to the water veil helping buff the veil. I had to hold for what felt like forever.
'Enemirs approaching!' Lunabella said. She was connected to several transmitters across the battlefield and sent me the info that I would need. ' A wave has made it past the first perimeter. all the creatures match description of termagants.'
”All long range units prepare to open fire!” I said as I pushed the water veil back against the enemy. I wanted to weave it into a spell but didnt have the power to. 'Zelda your up.' She stepped out of my shadow.
With her aems outstretched she performed a spell. She turned all the energy I had into some type of frozen zone. She pulled all the heat from that area towards herself. With me close by I shieled everyone from the heat by standing right behind her. It was heat created from my energy so it returned to me. Just painfully. The first wave of enemies froze in place.
”Fire at will!” Alistair said considering I was a little occupied. Zelda body started to tremble in front of me.

'That is enough! Return now Zelda!” I yelled at the woman. She reluctantly agreed and stepped into my shadow. My biotic strands felt the exhaustion she had accumulates just that quickly. Her body was fine but her spirit still was weak. I looked to the firing squads. The guns I provided did its work. The cross combination of Mass Effect shredder, and inferno ammo made work of the chitin. Even more reason none of the Tyrannids could be allowed to escape. The ability to negate that type of ammo or makeresistance to it , was a risk I was not willing to take.
8 minutes. That's how long it took to mow the first wave down. Next wave came out twice as big. With Myoptic spores mixed inside.
I looked up and behind us. 'Lunabella have the Arwings make a strafing run. As well as have the one with the best shields go through and get data on what the enemies have. The black smoke may be gone, but the dust and sand has obscured vision a little.'
'Understood.' Lunabellachimed at me. In less than two minutes I watched as the fighters shot past in the sky.They fired long range missiles into the area blasting away.The laser fire charging before hitting deeper into the enemy ranks.
Then I heard it. A sound I wish I never heard. The ground shook as a the air cleared revealing a Mawloc coming out of the ground It caught two Arwing's by the the wing. The only good news was that the ships could still fly. They released the bombs they had before pulling up and yanking towards us. One Arwing wasn't to lucky. The Mawloc had devoured him after firing acid at another one. Despite its size the creature had ridiculous agility.The other two disappeared from view. I could see them but not to well. The warp gate was messing with my vision.
”Boom, boom,” the Mawloc blew up. Its body fell slowly to the ground. The Arwing and the pilot didnt make it. Lunabella confirmed the death and the loss of the machine. The pilot had self destructed. Reaching out I pulled his psyche to me. I barely got it before I felt a warp fluctuation targeting me.
As the firing squad stop the advance of the enemy, a few minutes later the Arwings that made it came back.
They were not in good condition. Multiple scratches along the hull. I could tell one of the pilots was unconcious. The fighter started sailing straight up. Looking close I could see a Termagant on the bottom of the belly of the fighter.
”Bailout!” I said to the man over comms. He didnt respond. His fighter was heading down finally. Bad news it was the direction of the mortar team. As if guided by an invisible force. 'Lunabella activate the self destruct!'
In a split second the ship detonated. It was high enough that It did no damage to us. I pulled his psyche to me and was shocked.
In that short time they were in there, the Hive mind was already fighting to take control of them. I reached out to the other pilot and felt the foreign presence. I made note and sent him a message of apology and let him know I will bring him back as soon as I could. I felt his acknowledgment. He banked off to the side and headed back to the enemy. He fired all his missiles and was getting to active his self destruct when I felt a hand on my shoulder.
”What is he doing? Tell him to come back. A gladiator said. it was one of Angrons.
”He is going to damage the enemy is what he is doing. He is already corrupted by their influence.” I said to the man. ”You should get back to your squad.” He did not like my answer.
”Cotus!” Angron yelled. The man then moved back to where he needed to be. Angorn walked over to me. ”Brother what happened?”
”The enemy was influencing his mind. I didnt think that was possible at there current stage. It was my fault. I should have accounted for something like that. It wont happen again.” I said to Angron. His biotic stands just let me know he was worried for his people. ”Trust me.” I didnt want to use so much power already but I had to. ”Magic Shield” the spell washed over all the troops depleting a vast majority of my magic and psyker power. I could feel the change in a lot of people.As if a small fog that affected them all dissapeared. What shocked me was the strands from Jaina.
She had pure disappointment and anger in her towards me. Why I dont know nor did I care right now. ”This will last for the next 12 hours. It should help. I need that energy to decrease their numbers.” I said to who ever was listening.
The next wave was upon us and I had to activate the fail safe spell I placed on the ground. A giant geyser of scalding water travelled up puncturing holes into the enemy. The spell was able to clear an entire wave by itself. Up in the air the spell energy would linger for awhile to help in anyway I had to use it.
We had a 12 minutes of respite as the next wave didnt come out yet. Luanbella gave information on all the ammo and energy reserves we had. They were not looking good. But that was to be expected considering the enemy numbers was higher than we anticipated. The ground shook. But not from heavy enemies, no. The sheer number of Tyrannid Warriors that ran out with Scything Talons and Rending Claws.
Alistair gave me a look. Nothing needed to be said as I started to walk forward. He stopped me. ”Stay here. We will go.” I wanted to argue but felt a pang in my head.
System: Mission allow Alistair to lead the troops in battle. Rewards:??? Decline: Lost of respect by Alistair.
”Go. Dont die!” I said as I took a seat. If this needed to be done so be it. I did my best to recover my energy.
”We are heading out to the left side.” Jaina said. Malakor gave me a look before heading with her. ”Ruma has arrived and I dont want them getting ambushed.” I didnt say anything as my headache got worst. Clutching my head I just nodded at her.
System: Mission Jaina wishes to prove herself in command. Allow her to flourish unabated by your hand.
Rewards:??? Interfere: Jaina's admiration turns to hatred. 50% decrease in magic training and aptitude.
'What the hell?!' I didnt know what was happening but I couldn't ask Galtea for help. Didnt know if I wanted to actually. I was glad that I asked her to not communicate with me during this battle. Going without her advice actually decrease the difficulty a little. I watched as everyone fought. I didnt interfere just spectated. Then I felt Zelda moving about. Next a change in myself.
'I have released another part of you.' Her voice sounded somewhat chipper. 'Conceit and Pride. How do you feel?'
'I feel a little better.' I stood up and checked the map on our forces. Jaina was right about Rumas group. The Krogan definitely were in a ambush. 'How do you feel?'
'Good considering. I dont like that hole in the sky.' Zelda voice had a little dread in it. I felt her moving around moving to another statue. 'This next one is a single one. It says blood lust. It is quite massive. I will release that next so be prepared.'
I just grunted in approval. The Swooping Hawks made it from the rear. They had no damage whatsoever on them.
