Chapter 959, Expelling the Evil God
Chapter 959, Expelling the Evil God
The cracks between the curtains were gradually smoothed out, which made one of the beings anxious.
Gu Hang was a little nervous.
Viktor summoned the Como Sword, which could shatter the void, somewhat exceeding his expectations. By the time the spatial barriers of the curtain cracked and showed signs of collapse, Gu Hang had already dealt with it immediately.
However, it took a little effort to clean up that divine sword.
The fact that the spatial barrier had cracked was already established, making it inevitable that it would attract the attention of Slaanesh.
Gu Hang had no desire to confront Slaanesh head-on at this stage.
The stakes are too high.
Let alone whether Gu Hang has reached the same level as those four evil gods, even if he has, it would be very unwise to directly confront them.
Moreover, he had absolutely no confidence.
If it were someone stationed in the Storm God Kingdom, in their own lair, things might be a little better.
Even if we can't win, at least we can't lose.
As long as he doesn't suffer a crushing defeat, everything will be fine. After all, Gu Hang has a powerful ally. If some evil god were to launch a relentless attack on him, that being would likely not stand idly by.
But in Comoros, outside his home territory, he had no confidence at all.
However, even if we lack confidence, we can't just do nothing.
He stretched out his hand, and an ordinary-looking lightning spear materialized in his palm.
A moment later, the Thunder Spear was suddenly flung out, and in the blink of an eye, as the rift was still being filled, it rushed into the waves of the subspace, creating a vortex.
After delivering that blow, even Gu Hang was slightly out of breath.
But it didn't matter. When the prince's vicious curse suddenly stopped, Gu Hang smiled slightly.
At least it can buy them some time.
That's enough time.
The cracks that had just been repaired were soon restored to their original, intact state, from a fragile and unstable condition.
Slaanesh did not come.
This is excellent news.
Once this veil had been secured and Slaanesh's army could no longer find this place through the gaps, Gu Hang's task was considered complete.
His figure gradually blurred, like ink sinking into water, completely disappearing in the center of the battlefield.
In the distance, twelve psionic masters, each wearing a psionic crown and guarding a massive crown in the center, collapsed to the ground. Half of them were unconscious, while the other half suffered from splitting headaches, but in each of their eyes shone a tremendous shock and surprise.
They were awestruck by what they had witnessed—a battle of godlike proportions that they could not comprehend.
They were delighted by this brief moment of firsthand observation, which may well be an insight that will benefit them for the rest of their lives.
The prerequisite is that they must recover from this loss.
……
The war in the Comoros has not ended.
The sudden resumption of hostilities clearly demonstrates the Dark Eldar's unwillingness to accept defeat.
Even though Victor died, his elite Eldar force, which had led the attack on Queen Rose Harbor, perished along with him. But after the initial chaos, the Eldar quickly elected a new leader—Malaka, the governor of the Shadow Eater family—to lead them in the continued fight.
However, fatal problems still exist.
Even though the Dark Eldar seemed to maintain their fighting spirit, the sudden loss of their supreme commander meant that even with someone taking over, the command structure wouldn't be easily reorganized. They were already in a fierce, desperate offensive posture, and the disruption of the command center severely hampered their coordinated attacks.
They were counterattacked by humans.
At this point, the situation becomes quite bad.
It must not be forgotten that the human forces opposite them were not on the defensive. By sheer chance, the human side's pre-battle preparations were entirely in an offensive posture.
Once the dark-skinned people's overall offensive momentum was reversed, the human offensive became unstoppable.
Large areas of the city, lacking garrison troops, were occupied by human forces and solidified into defensive lines. The originally fragile strips of occupied territory expanded significantly outwards, becoming much easier to defend once they were connected.
Of the eight concession ports, six had already been retaken by the Blacks, but after their offensive collapsed, the humans recaptured them one by one over the next two weeks.
The most dangerous time has passed.
Humanity was not destroyed just after the Terran Expeditionary Force left and before new reinforcements arrived.
Next, it's the league's turn.
And it will always be the turn of humanity.
Queen's Rose Port suffered severe damage due to the battle between Gu Hang and Victor. However, the Reception Building, energy reserves, and the Veil Spirit Gate were all intact, and troops continued to be sent in wave after wave. The only problem was that the route for troops to leave the port would be difficult and slow until it was fully repaired.
However, the eight concession ports that were all occupied were no longer restricted by any ridiculous treaties due to the outbreak of war, and began to send troops in full force.
In just one month, more than 80% of the Alliance's total forces poured into the Central Army.
This is already stronger than the first phase of the Comoros War, when the human side was at its strongest.
Based on this, the human army launched a full-scale offensive.
The Dark Eldar were gradually suppressed.
Victory can mask many problems, while defeat can expose many problems.
Malakai's hasty rise to power meant he lacked both the prestige and the power to suppress all internal factions compared to Viktor. Even his ability to coordinate and manage internal affairs was far inferior to Viktor's.
He was not qualified to be the leader of the entire race.
The series of defeats further eroded his already fragile prestige. The various factions within the Black faction simply did not believe that under his leadership, they could achieve a turnaround victory that even Viktor had failed to accomplish.
Realizing that things were going badly, Malakai launched an unsuccessful internal purge.
His failure lay in the fact that while he purged some opponents, he incited even more opponents.
He died in office during an assassination attempt.
Then, during the war, the Blacks couldn't even elect a new leader.
The various Dark Eldar factions ruled independently for a period of time.
Some persisted in resistance and were then badly defeated by humans; others preserved their strength and remained inactive on the battlefield, which meant surrendering several strategic points; some advocated for renewed peace talks, but the alliance ignored them completely.
Even a strategy that was very effective in previous wars became useless when it was used again.
They dispatched raiding fleets to the real universe, attempting to replicate the routes that had previously devastated the Alliance's heartland.
However, the Alliance, having learned its lesson, is highly wary of this and would rather halt the Dark Side Expeditions slightly than withdraw a large number of high-speed ships to form a 'hunting fleet' specifically to deal with the Dark Eldar raids.
Destroying planets in the heart of the Alliance has become significantly more difficult.
On the other hand, Isara, the former governor of Twilight Fang and the best raiding commander among the Dark Eldar, was betrayed by them and hanged on the spot when the last 'toilet paper' was signed, and her soul could not be retrieved.
The threat posed by the raiding fleet had already decreased considerably after losing its excellent commander.
Furthermore, with the Dark Eldar in complete disarray, the support they could provide to the raiding fleets was insufficient. Some even eager for peace talks and a willingness to surrender were willing to betray information about the Dark Eldar's veiled portal coordinates in the real universe, hoping to slow the Alliance's offensive on their territory...
The combination of these factors rendered even the Dark Eldar's most threatening acts of destruction ineffective.
Even if the war isn't over yet, so what?
They are completely finished.
Against this backdrop, Gu Hang heard that a Dark Eldar leader, whom he thought had been purged by Victor, had suddenly returned.
That's an old woman.
