74: Chapter 74 Using my true energy to unite with the creation of heaven and earth

The psionic power awakened by Overachiever Cheng Yu was extremely strong. After a detailed test by Godzilla Cheng Yu, his rating was β+. A psyker of this level could already move freely within Warp.

Unless he ran into an insect like Abaddon, ordinary Chaos demons could do nothing to Overachiever Cheng Yu. Even if he couldn't win, he could still run away.

Most valuable of all... Overachiever Cheng Yu had only lost part of his memory. His logical thinking remained rigorous, with no signs of "pointy-headedness." At most, he was occasionally a bit chuunibyou in the style of legends of the three kingdoms.

"Here is a property deed for the Upper Hive, and a bottle of mid-grade liquor worth five hundred coins. Which one do you choose?" Godzilla Cheng Yu asked.

"The liquor, of course," Overachiever Cheng Yu replied without hesitation.

"Why? Do you think I'm too stingy to give you a house?"

"In Warp, there's no telling if you'll survive till tomorrow. What use is property to me? I'd rather drink to my heart's content first!"

"Very good, very logical. I order you to lead the troops out now, take this position on the map, and purge all Warp demons entrenched there!"

Godzilla Cheng Yu pointed to a highlighted spot on the holographic map. In Warp, even electronic equipment would get corrupted. As soon as Godzilla Cheng Yu pointed to the highlighted spot, it immediately shifted its position on its own.

"Those who are not of our kin are sure to have different hearts!"

"If we wish to claim the Sea of Souls, now is the time!"

The Overachiever... Chief of Staff Cheng Yu immediately began to muster his troops. All kinds of bizarrely shaped Cheng Yus Clones and Slaaneshi Warriors came to answer the call.

What was the point of enduring on this bizarre land? It was to make contributions and receive rewards! Now that a general-level psyker had awakened, they wanted him to quickly lead them into a great battle to share in the glory of victory!

"The time has come! Today, we raise our army!"

Chief of Staff Cheng Yu drank half a bottle of liquor, then tossed the other half into the arms of Ecclesiarchy Priest Cheng Yu. "Please warm this liquor for me, sir. I shall go make my contribution and return to drink it shortly!"

As expected of the former Hive City Overachiever; he was always so efficient in everything he did.

"The liquor surges, and my spirit is refreshed!"

In Warp, there was no absolute concept of time and space; everything was in a state of eternal change.

It was perfectly normal for a squad of psionic cavalry to travel eight hundred miles a day for ten consecutive days, only to find they still hadn't reached a stronghold fifty miles away.

It wouldn't even be surprising if, while riding, they suddenly caught up with themselves who were about to set off tomorrow.

Holding fast to one's true mind was more important than fighting.

"Drive the thunder and whip the lightning, overturn the seas and rivers!"

Chief of Staff Cheng Yu was no longer the submissive little secret agent he once was. His immense power gave him immense confidence.

Encountering a squad of Nurgle Warriors, Chief of Staff Cheng Yu, without a word, summoned several bolts of deep blue lightning, blasting these lackeys of Nurgle into lifeless ash.

"Chaos scum, you are merely offering up your own heads!"

Riding on a Steed of Slaanesh, Chief of Staff Cheng Yu grew wild red hair. His physical body was beginning to mutate again, his appearance and temperament shifting closer to that of Demon Lord Chonglou.

Chief of Staff Cheng Yu shaped his palm into a blade, decapitating a Chaos Space Marine with a single strike.

Then, strike after strike, the Chaos Warriors rushed forward one after another, yet not a single one could withstand even one blow from him.

That blue lightning capable of suppressing Chaos power was simply too bizarre. Before one Chaos Warrior's head could even hit the ground, another's was already flying high into the air.

"If a god blocks me, I shall kill the god; if a Buddha blocks me, I shall kill the Buddha!"

"Let me face you!"

A Chaos Warband captain charged into the battlefield. Holding a three-pointed, double-edged spear stained with profane blood, the captain thrust it straight toward Chief of Staff Cheng Yu's chest.

If this thrust landed solidly, Chief of Staff Cheng Yu would instantly be turned into a mutton skewer.

"To be able to advance and retreat is the mark of a true weapon!"

An arc of electricity flashed, and Chief of Staff Cheng Yu's figure vanished amidst the smell of ozone... He wasn't stupid; why would he take such a powerful attack head-on?

"Shameless coward, come and fight me for three hundred rounds!"

The Chaos Warband captain brandished his weapon in impotent rage.

"I am Cheng, the Hive City Overachiever!"

Chief of Staff Cheng Yu suddenly tore open a Warp rift and reappeared, shaping his hand into a palm strike and slapping it down toward the Chaos captain's head.

The Chaos captain was a battle-hardened veteran and was no pushover either.

Knowing his opponent was obsessed with heads, he had prepared himself well in advance.

Just as Warp ripples stirred near his ear, the Chaos captain had already tilted his head, narrowly dodging the blow.

Failing to land the blow, Chief of Staff Cheng Yu knew his opponent was a formidable enemy. He didn't linger, instead tearing through space to leap back onto his mount.

Chief of Staff Cheng Yu waved a purplish-red command flag. "Demonic Steed Volunteers, trample the enemy lines!"

A massive force of Cheng Yus Clones and Slaaneshi Warriors riding Steeds of Slaanesh charged out from behind the blue lightning.

Some held psionic melee weapons, engaging in close-quarters combat at the front.

Others hovered in the rear, firing cheap shots and cold arrows with all kinds of bizarrely shaped ranged weapons.

"Fight to the death without retreat! Swear to slay the enemy general!"

The Chaos captain knew he was at a disadvantage, but with such a powerful enemy before him and Khorne's Court behind him, there was no reason to avoid a fight!

"Kill!!"

"Kill!!"

The formations of both sides clashed, and all kinds of indescribable creatures slaughtered one another. At a glance, it was impossible to tell who belonged to which side.

On this side, Khorne aided the Chaos faction, with swords slashing and axes chopping, cannons roaring, fighting ever more fiercely to offer sacrifices to the Blood God.

On that side, Slaanesh protected the Imperial forces, with swords whistling and spears ringing, battle flags fluttering, fighting to the death to serve their Emperor.

The Khorne Warband was, after all, more experienced. Despite being at a disadvantage initially, they actually managed to slowly tilt the scales of victory back in their favor.

"Lord of Thunder, aid me!"

This was Chief of Staff Cheng Yu's first campaign; how could he accept defeat? Rubbing his palms together, a massive vortex of rain clouds instantly formed high up in the sky of Warp.

"Not good!" Sensing the terrifying energy about to strike, the Chaos captain hastily ordered his subordinates to retreat.

However... it was already too late!

"The grand trend of Chaos is under my control!"

The lightning storm blasted down, and the Chaos captain and his personal guards were reduced to ashes amidst their overwhelming hatred and resentment.

"Slaying the enemy general before the ranks, my name shall shake the world!"

"I am a β+ level psyker! How dare you act so insolently!"

Chief of Staff Cheng Yu waved his command flag. "Boys, charge into the bandits' nest and wipe them out completely!"

"Understood!"

The Demonic Steed Volunteers had already been completely awed by Chief of Staff Cheng Yu's powerful psionic energy. At this point, even if he ordered, "All units, slit your throats and return to heaven," these half-human, half-Chaos Warriors would execute it immediately.

The warriors of Khorne were routing. Their faith in the Blood God had been cast aside at this moment; throwing away their armor and weapons, they only wanted to survive.

After all, in Warp, dying meant truly dying. Even if resurrected, all memories would be lost, turning them into entirely different creatures.
