Chapter 198 - Chapter 198 : Trazyn: Damn little thief!!

If someone stood in the vast void, overlooking the Players' current airdrop operation,

they would be surprised to find that they could only see a dozen insignificant black dots falling towards the vast land.

For a massive planet,

the existence of the Emperor Niuma Battle Group's Players could be said to be too tiny for anyone to notice.

Coupled with the advanced Hell Pioneer Power Armor's stealth capabilities,

the Necrons's detection systems were completely unable to detect the airborne Players,

and they entered the Museum Planet like ghosts.

The sound of airflow became increasingly sharp as the Players' descent speed accelerated.

The further they fell, the greater the air density.

The temperature of the armor's surface also continuously rose due to friction with the air.

The life support system activated the thermostatic module, absorbing and converting the generated energy for storage, maintaining the armor's temperature.

"If I were in Reality, even with ten thousand guts, I wouldn't dare to jump like this."

"It's been over twenty seconds since we jumped, but why does it still feel so far from the ground??"

Tenjiro's heart thumped incessantly.

He wouldn't even dare to imagine such a height in Reality.

Only in Warhammer OL did he dare to be so unrestrained.

No one responded to Tenjiro's words,

everyone was closely monitoring their armor's status to prevent accidents.

If they were wearing ordinary Power Armor and jumped from such a height,

the intense friction would cause flames to erupt on the armor's surface,

and the rapidly rising temperature would roast the wearer.

The performance displayed by the Hell Pioneer Power Armor greatly surprised the Players;

it not only didn't catch fire but also absorbed the heat generated by friction, converting it into stored energy.

This black technology made all the Players want to give a thumbs up and say, "That's f***ing awesome."

...

As the altitude decreased, the details of the ground became increasingly clear in the Players' eyes.

Majestic pyramids and structures stood on the surface, towering into the clouds,

forming an intricate metal labyrinth,

an alien metropolis covering the entire planet was revealed before Tenjiro and the other Players.

"This modeling is absolutely mind-blowing," Twisted person said.

"During the airdrop, the ground just zoomed in little by little, with full details, no different from the real world."

"I really can't think of what else this game needs beta testing for; even if it had a bunch of bugs, no other game could compete with it."

Tenjiro also started to complain,

"Who knows what the operations team is thinking! Their thought process is completely different from other games!"

"In this game, if you curse the operations team or the boss, you'll definitely get sanctioned."

"I've never seen an operations team and boss in any game so tough, daring to persecute Players."

Sea Turtle laughed, "They don't charge, and the popularity is high, so isn't it normal for them to be tough? Try to disobey them."

"..."

The Players chatted while adjusting their descent posture.

When they were close enough to the surface, the Warmaster issued a new command,

"Activate thruster devices, slow down the descent, and change flight direction."

Following the Warmaster's voice,

a new mission route prompt reappeared on the Players' helmet panels.

A magnificent pyramid at the horizon's end was highlighted,

which was closest to the exhibition hall where the captured Players were located.

Thrusters on their backs spewed flames, countering the planet's gravity.

The powerful thrust diverted the Players' direction, sending them flying towards the target pyramid.

It didn't look like much from a distance, but up close, the Players realized the pyramid was truly massive,

like a colossal black mountain, majestic and grand, with an imposing aura emanating from it,

making the Players appear very small in front of it.

The Players adjusted their posture and finally landed on a spacious platform extending from the pyramid.

The Hellfire Adeptus armor automatically activated stealth mode the moment they landed.

The silently activated optical field made the Players instantly invisible,

and any escaping heat and sound were reabsorbed, preventing any thermal radiation from escaping.

"I wonder how Cortana's armor stealth technology compares to the T'au's?"

The Warmaster looked at his companions who had disappeared from sight, only indicated as present on his panel, feeling a bit curious.

"We'll find out soon; those little blue skins haven't been honest lately, so there's definitely going to be a war."

Tenjiro recalled information about the T'au,

"I remember at this point in time, the little blue skins have already started a new round of expansion, right?"

"At this point in time, the Fourth Sphere Expansion has already ended; now it's the Fifth Sphere Expansion, and the T'au Goddess has also appeared," Sea Turtle said.

"By the way, who do you think is more powerful, the Emperor or the T'au Goddess?"

Twisted person asked a question that could cause a fight between Imperial loyalists and T'au fans.

"I think it's a three-seven split."

Tenjiro paused, thought for a moment, and then began to explain,

"After all, the Emperor hasn't ascended to Black King, and the T'au Goddess is considered a legitimate Warp deity no matter what."

Sea Turtle disagreed with Tenjiro's statement and immediately retorted before he could finish.

"Are you crazy? The Emperor and the T'au Goddess are a three-seven split??"

"If that's the case, wouldn't the Four Chaos Gods be clowns?"

Tenjiro glanced at Sea Turtle and then calmly continued.

"Just let me finish, okay? When I said three-seven split, I meant the Emperor with three sword swings, and the T'au could hold a funeral for the T'au Goddess."

Hearing this, the Players who were walking towards the inside of the pyramid suddenly felt speechless.

"That cold joke is too dark."

"Don't pause so dramatically next time."

"I knew it; what kind of trash is the T'au Goddess to be on par with Yellow Old Man?"

"..."

The Players chatted while heading to the mission location according to Cortana's guidance.

As for the enemies they encountered along the way,

they avoided them if possible.

If they couldn't avoid them, they'd stealthily approach and silently eliminate them.

Time was pressing, and they couldn't afford any delays.

Even Cortana couldn't deceive the Necrons's defense protocols for long.

If they dragged on for too long, Trazyn would definitely notice,

and by then, entering the exhibition hall would not be so easy.

After some twists and turns, the Warmaster and other Players successfully arrived at the Human exhibition hall.

"Oh my goodness, is this a Thunder Warrior?"

Zhuge looked at a warrior confined within a stasis field, his face filled with surprise.

"Look here, there are also Custodes and a Sisters of Silence squad."

Sea Turtle gestured for his companions to look his way.

Tenjiro stood in front of an exhibit, his face showing surprise,

"Wolf head, crescent moon. This is actually a Luna Wolves squad. According to the description, they should be members from when Horus campaigned against the Ork Empire."

"Let's release them from their stasis fields, then tell them that Horus betrayed the Emperor. Their expressions will definitely be priceless."

The Warmaster glanced at Tenjiro, "Brother, you're practically the embodiment of malice. How do you come up with such nasty tricks?!!"

Sea Turtle also walked to the exhibit where the Luna Wolves were located,

"Don't even mention it, I'm also quite curious about the expressions of these Luna Wolves when they learn of Horus's betrayal."

"..."

The Players' squad walked along,

the exhibits along the way left them dumbfounded.

They knew Trazyn's collection was vast, but they had never imagined it could be this extensive;

every major event that had occurred in the galaxy, every race that had ever existed, was represented in Trazyn's museum.

The Players marveled while heading to the Hogwarts Battle Group's exhibit, guided by the mission route on their HUD panel.

After some effort, they successfully reached their target location,

and saw Old Thirteen and the other Players trapped by the stasis field.

"Cadia's Lord Castellan Creed is also here."

Tenjiro recognized at a glance who was sealed in the adjacent exhibit.

"This is a legendary figure," Twisted person also leaned closer to the nearby exhibit.

"How about we release all these people?"

"We definitely have to release them, but not right now," Zhuge said, inserting the hacking device into the stasis exhibit.

He was preparing to first hack the Necrons's defense protocols to release Old Thirteen and the other Players.

If it were the Human Empire's old technology, there would be no way to crack the Necrons's defense protocols.

But with the 2.0 version of the Cogitator technology, coupled with the help of Cortana, a C'tan,

hacking the Necrons Dynasty's defense protocols was still very easy.

As the hacking device operated, the stasis field's defense system was successfully analyzed.

The stasis field on the exhibit began to flicker.

A moment later, the force field's glow vanished, and the imprisoned Players regained their freedom.

"Damn it all."

Old Thirteen stretched his limbs.

Being locked in that dark room by Trazyn for so long had made him furious, and he urgently needed to vent his anger on that scoundrel, Trazyn.

The news of the Emperor Niuma Battle Group acquiring the most advanced Hell Pioneer Power Armor had already spread on the official forum.

Old Thirteen and the others naturally knew that the Warmaster and his companions had taken on the mission to rescue them.

After calculating the time, they went online and waited in the dark room to be rescued.

Meanwhile,

Trazyn the Infinite had no idea that the God Chosen he had painstakingly plotted to capture for so long had already been rescued.

Moreover, it wasn't just the God Chosen; other exhibits were also on the verge of breaking free.

Trazyn was currently busy observing the void.

A Human Empire fleet had suddenly appeared at the edge of the star system, heading towards the pocket dimension where the Museum Planet was located.

"That shouldn't be happening, should it?"

Trazyn scratched his shiny forehead with a metal finger, unable to comprehend how the Human Empire had discovered him.

"Could it be the recently acquired collection?" Sunnet asked, "They have some means to track those collections."

"Impossible," Trazyn shook his head, "All collections are confined within stasis fields, and I have unique barriers to sever their threads of fate. It's impossible for them to be discovered."

Sunnet looked bewildered and confused.

"If it's not those collections, then how do you explain the Human Empire fleet accurately pinpointing our coordinates?"

This Museum Planet had always been well-hidden; even advanced Necrons dynasties would find it difficult to locate the entrance.

Yet, the Human Empire had expertly locked onto the entrance of the pocket dimension.

Before the master and servant could ponder the true reason for the discovery of the pocket dimension,

the Human Empire fleet directly traversed the vast distance,

tore open the entrance to the pocket dimension, and flew towards the Museum Planet.

Still millions of kilometers away, they unleashed a barrage of attacks,

without even a single word of nonsense to Trazyn.

The Museum Planet's defense protocols activated.

Emerald green energy shields materialized in the sky, blocking the incoming attacks,

but the explosions they caused still impacted the Museum Planet.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Terrifying explosions shook the ground.

Towering flames swept across the sky, setting it ablaze.

"Damn it," Trazyn cursed under his breath, "Sunnet, hold them off. I need to find something to deal with these damned monkeys."

"Understood, Curator. With me here, those monkeys will absolutely not be able to land on the Museum Planet," Sunnet said.

Trazyn turned and left the observation deck.

He needed to open his vault and see what ancient creations could give those invading monkeys a shock.

When he designated this planet as a Museum Planet,

he also collected many weapons here that had been used in the Paradise War.

They should be more than enough to deal with those humans.

Trazyn moved quickly.

He arrived before a spacious corridor deep underground.

At the end of the corridor, a majestic, solemn black gate stood tall.

Next to it was a wide staircase.

Double rows of braziers, appearing desolate and eerie, lined both sides, guiding the staircase upwards.

As Trazyn stepped forward and approached the braziers, emerald green flames twisted and ascended,

the spiraling flames even illuminating the distant buttresses on the ceiling.

Complex patterns also spread across the massive gate,

and a rich, emerald-colored glow slowly diffused,

so much so that it formed a misty, physical current flowing downwards, spreading throughout the entire corridor.

Trazyn recited the algorithmic password, and the heavy gate slowly opened, revealing what was inside.

Every weapon collected here possessed terrifying power.

Like a button, when pressed, it would stop time in the surrounding area—a spatiotemporal controller.

Bombs capable of creating black holes.

Eradication bombs that erased all data and information, creating blank zones in the universe.

Causality guns that fired from the past and were guaranteed to hit the enemy in the future.

Devices that could reverse the time of a planet…

These weapons were merely trifles during the Paradise War,

but in this era, they were mythical existences.

The Human Empire's Golden Age might have had some creations comparable to them,

but unfortunately, the Golden Age no longer existed,

and the Human Empire's technology had mostly been lost.

These ancient Paradise War relics were invincible in this era,

and would certainly be more than enough to deal with those Human Empire fleets.

Trazyn looked around, finally fixing his gaze on a scepter.

The Staff of Stellar Wrath, a weapon created using top-tier spatial dimension technology.

The fiery orb emanating from the end of the scepter was a true star, not merely decoration.

During the Paradise War,

the creator of the Staff of Stellar Wrath had used dimensional space technology to bind a star in its prime.

Using the star to power the scepter, it unleashed power capable of destroying all things.

Just as Trazyn was about to reach for the Staff of Stellar Wrath,

a continuous series of "bang! bang! bang!" from a bolter suddenly erupted behind him.

The Players of the Emperor Niuma Battle Group appeared behind Trazyn, firing at his honor guard.

"Humans? How could they be here?"

Trazyn's expression turned ugly.

He had received no intrusion reports whatsoever,

so why were humans here?

"Cortana's mission is truly going to make us rich!"

The Warmaster looked at the various weapons in the vault and almost drooled.

If they stole everything and brought it back for Cortana to analyze, wouldn't they make a fortune?

And after analysis, these weapons would be returned to their original owners,

meaning they would get contribution points for free and also gain a weapon.

It was a complete win-win.

After rescuing the Hogwarts Players, the Warmaster and his companions received another mission from Cortana: to raid Trazyn's vault.

With Cortana's help, they successfully deceived the Necrons units along the way and followed Trazyn to the secret vault.

As soon as the opponent opened the door, they immediately launched an attack.

Trazyn thought the tomb was safe, so he didn't bring any guards; he only had two servants with him.

Facing the Primaris Players, they were no match at all.

Soon, their bodies were destroyed, forcing them to retreat from the battlefield.

"Quick, Trazyn will be back soon!" the Warmaster shouted.

"Move whatever is valuable, and have others come over to help."

"Tenjiro, come open a portal and send everything away."

"The rest of you, follow me to guard the corridor and buy Tenjiro some time."

The Warmaster quickly made arrangements, determined to transport the treasures from Trazyn's vault at all costs.

...

Trazyn disliked death, so he was always very cautious.

He had many backup contingency plans,

so no one could truly distinguish which Trazyn was the true body.

After being killed by the God Chosen, Trazyn's consciousness immediately transferred to the mind of the nearest Lychguard Captain.

He overwrote the captain's original personality code and banished the captain into the data archives to await orders.

This kind of behavior was strictly forbidden in Necrons dynasties.

The Conclave of Restoration punished and warned against such actions that caused harm to kin for personal gain.

But Trazyn always treated the Conclave of Restoration as if they were air.

Within a second, he reshaped the captain's mutable Necrodermis body.

Living metal flowed and transformed, outlining his appearance.

The Lychguard's death mask reassembled into Trazyn's face.

Hooded structures emerged segment by segment, covering his head.

A cloak extended from his shoulders, and the plates on the cloak appeared with soft 'clinks'.

"Damn rats!"

"How dare you do such a thing?"

The re-embodied Trazyn let out a furious roar.

But he quickly calmed down.

The fact that these humans could infiltrate so silently indicated that they had disabled the tomb's protective mechanisms.

Realizing the problem, Trazyn immediately began to modify the defense protocols.

Immediately after, piercing alarm bells rang out.

The Human Empire exhibit, the Tyranids / Tyranid exhibit, and the Ork exhibit had all been breached.

Large numbers of collections had broken free and were wreaking havoc within the museum, releasing many more collections.

"Damn it, don't let me catch you."

Trazyn was furious. He immediately summoned the awakened Lychguard,

and ordered the Technomancers to awaken more Necron Warriors.

Soon, a formidable Necrons army was assembled.

Trazyn led the army directly to the secret chamber; the items there were extremely precious.

He had to find every way to prevent those humans from stealing them.

"Stop those Necrons and buy us time."

When the Warmaster saw Trazyn appear with his army, he immediately gave the order to go all out and hold Trazyn back.

"Attack! Initiate kill protocol."

Trazyn also realized that these God Chosen were moving his secret chamber, so he immediately ordered an attack.

A fierce battle thus broke out.

At the same time, the Astartes, Custodes, and Sisters of Silence released from the Human Empire exhibition hall also joined the battle.

"For Horus! For the Emperor!" a Luna Wolves warrior, who had just been unsealed, shouted, "For a glorious future..."

Hearing this slogan, the two Sisters of Silence nearby immediately felt an urge to point their guns at that guy.

If it weren't for the Players stopping them, they might have truly started an internal conflict.

Trazyn commanded the Lychguard to attack the Players.

Relying on the Necron Warrior and Canoptek Scarabs, who feared neither death nor sacrifice, he pushed forward relentlessly.

The Players and many Human Empire heroes resisted with all their might.

Both sides fought fiercely, and the battle grew increasingly heated.

The Warmaster charged left and right through the enemy lines, carving out a bloody path, and confronted Trazyn.

"You've certainly kicked a steel plate by provoking us."

The Warmaster activated the propulsion function of his armor, leaping up.

He lunged towards Trazyn.

His longsword slashed down.

Trazyn subconsciously blocked with the scepter in his hand.

The sword and scepter collided, emitting a clanging sound and creating a shockwave that swept in all directions.

The two sides fought fiercely for a long time.

Ultimately, the Warmaster proved to be superior.

After parrying the scepter, he thrust the sword in his hand into Trazyn's metallic body.

A hint of surprise appeared on the defeated Trazyn's face.

He had never thought he would lose to an unknown nobody.

The Warmaster pulled out his longsword, spun around, and chopped off Trazyn's metallic head.

Bang!

The Infinite's head was incredibly heavy.

It made a dull thud when it hit the ground.

The heavily wounded Warmaster struggled to walk over, bending down to look at the head on the ground.

"It seems I won."

As soon as he finished speaking, a low metallic sound echoed behind him.

"That's not necessarily true."

A thick beam of energy shot out.

The Hell Pioneer Power Armor on the Warmaster's body was pierced through on the spot.

A huge, glowing red, scorching wound was left in his abdomen.

"Damn it! This old schemer!"

The Warmaster turned his head with difficulty, looking towards where the energy beam had come from.

A Necrons walked out of the shadows, holding a special energy staff in his hand.

"Are you the main body?"

The Warmaster asked, enduring the pain.

The Necrons's metallic face revealed a human-like smile.

"You can guess."

The Warmaster gave him a difficult middle finger.

"I'll be back. When I do, I'll chop off your head and ask you that question again."

Trazyn aimed his scepter at the Warmaster, showing human-like mockery.

"Go to your so-called Warp. You won't come back; you'll only be torn to shreds by those damned demons."

As the words fell, Trazyn activated the scepter in his hand again.

A scorching beam of light instantly burst forth, piercing through the opponent's head.

After the Warmaster fell, the Emperor Niuma Battle Group also fell into a predicament.

Ultimately, they were annihilated by Trazyn and his army.

Even the Players of the Hogwarts Battle Group, who had obtained weapons and came to support, were not spared and all died in battle.

The rescued Human Empire heroes, upon receiving orders, chose to retreat and break through individually.

After the battle subsided, Trazyn stepped into the secret chamber and was immediately struck by a devastating realization.

It was gone, all gone.

All those ancient weapons he had painstakingly collected had all benefited those damned little thieves.

Even the blackstone and living metal on the walls had been dug out, leaving only an empty stone chamber.

"Damned little thieves!"

Seeing the impossibly clean secret chamber, Trazyn almost fainted.

If it weren't for the piercing alarm constantly reminding him of the crisis the Museum Planet was currently facing,

he truly wished he could just faint and be done with it.

Suppressing the towering rage in his heart, Trazyn chose to return to the main pyramid first.

He needed to find another way to resist the Human Empire fleet.

Stepping out of the chaotic underground, Trazyn arrived at the observation deck at the top of the pyramid.

At this time, the orbital bombardment was still ongoing, and streaks of meteors appeared in the red-hot sky.

The appearance of the meteors made Trazyn's expression turn very grim.

He knew that those meteors were Human Empire drop pods.

Humans were attempting to drop to the surface for combat.

"These damned monkeys, shameless little thieves, you won't take anything else from my hands."

Trazyn muttered to himself while looking at the sky.

...

Reality.

On the Warhammer OL official forum,

the Players of the Emperor Niuma Battle Group and Hogwarts Battle Group, who had been completely annihilated by Trazyn, became active on the forum.

Zhuge Qiqin Kharbanda: "I'm definitely going to dig up Trazyn's old home. Even if a C'tan revives, it won't be able to protect it. I said it."

Second Empire Warmaster: "Trazyn is such an old schemer. We finally managed to kill this guy, only to find out it was a clone. It's so disgusting."

Guilliman is My Sun: "Hurry up and let me revive, I want to go back and kill Trazyn."

"..."

Tenjiro also wanted to vent.

As soon as he logged in, he found his private messages exploding.

They were all netizens begging him to release analysis posts, so he put aside his desire to vent for now.

Instead, he focused on analyzing the 6.0 version update.

Soon, a post titled "6.0 New Version Hidden Details and Future Game Trends Breakdown" was published on the official forum.

Brothers, the 6.0 version update is already online.

However, many netizens and Players still haven't realized the impact of this new version,

and how the game will progress in the future.

So I opened this thread.

Without further ado, let's get straight to the point.

First: What needs to be mentioned is the Dimensional Space. Its value is beyond doubt; it's practically a warehouse for Players, a pet space.

The official stance has always been that everything in the game must be created by Players and NPCs themselves.

Therefore, the introduction of Dimensional Space was also developed based on the Necrons's spatial technology.

Currently, it requires accepting quests from Cortana or purchasing it with Contribution Points or Merit Points, etc.

When this thing is first released, it will definitely be very valuable.

After all, many things can be used not only by Players but also by NPCs.

NPCs will also rush to buy it.

This item will remain valuable for a long time in the future, so just buy it without thinking.

Second:

Third:...

...

Seventh:

Tenjiro's analysis posts have always been highly regarded.

As soon as it was published, it received widespread attention.

After one minute, the comments had already reached 999+.

Tenjiro originally planned to answer the questions raised by netizens.

But then the Warmaster called him.

"Quick, the one-hour cooldown is over. Immediately revive with Faith Points. We're going to empty Trazyn's pyramid."

Out of necessity, Tenjiro could only disappoint his little fans and logged into the game.

Because of the preciousness of the Hell Pioneer Power Armor, they had locked their equipment with Faith Points before the battle began.

After reviving, they could directly exchange it using Faith Points.

There was no need to purchase equipment again.

Although this behavior consumed a lot of Faith Points, for the current situation, it was extremely cost-effective.

After all, the performance of the Hell Pioneer Power Armor far exceeded that of various power armors on the market.

Moreover, it was not sold externally; it was originally intended to arm the Guide's personal guards.

The Guide only brought out the armor because he considered the significant power gap between the two sides.

Trazyn, who was exhausted from rushing around, putting out fires, and protecting his collection, saw the Warmaster, Old Thirteen, and other Players standing before him again.

His mentality instantly collapsed!

Bullying an honest person shouldn't be like this, right?

How could these damned little thieves even revive?!
