Chapter 441 Cowboy Showdown
Chapter 441 Cowboy Showdown
Deathmark, an elite soldier among the Necrons, has become a very terrifying existence among the Necrons by virtue of his unique death mark, powerful nerve crusher gun and the ability to travel through the extra-dimensional space at will.
To put it simply, the Death Mark is a super sniper whose reconnaissance range ignores cover and camouflage, kills with one hit, can enter invincibility at any time, and is not hindered by any obstacles or spatial distance.
The appearance of the Death Mark caused chaos in the already stable situation. At this time, Howard received another warning from Om Messiah:
"Master! Watch your back."
So Howard held Christina and dodged forward with the ball-carrying rolling movement in rugby. Christina was strong enough to knock over ten Howards, but when he actually picked her up, he found that she was very light and small.
When he rolled out, a pale green beam of light fell on his original landing point and spread out a halo.
A nerve crusher is a weapon that kills its target efficiently and painfully by directly burning and destroying the nerve tissue of a living thing. With Howard's physical fitness, let alone being hit directly, even if the aftermath of the nerve crusher is spread after it misses, he would probably be in great danger.
At the other end of the control room, dozens of meters away from where the Death Mark fired the first shot, another green light dissipated, which was a sign that this cautious and terrifying sniper had entered hyperspace again.
Howard: "Get on the radio and evacuate the crowd."
He was speaking to Om Messiah, and now that Christina was right next to him, he certainly couldn't call out Om Messiah's name directly.
An alarm sounded in the control room, and at the same time, the voice of Ohm Messiah's compiler was broadcast:
"Everyone, the control room is now a dangerous area. Please evacuate as soon as possible to avoid putting yourself in danger and causing unnecessary trouble to others."
"Fellow humans..."
While Om Messiah continued to broadcast warnings, Howard once again dodged the Death Mark's sniper attack and hid behind a bunker.
The Death Mark can move in hyperspace and bypass the cover directly, but this movement takes time. The cover chosen by Howard happened to be facing the location where the Death Mark fired the last shot, so it also takes some time for the Death Mark to bypass this cover.
Although the nerve crusher gun can directly penetrate some weak cover, its power will be greatly reduced. If there is plenty of time, the Death Mark would rather hit the target directly.
But this gives Howard some breathing room.
"Master Howard!" Christina spoke at this time: "Please evacuate with us. I will buy you some time."
Time was precious, so Howard ignored Christina because her methods would not work.
It was obvious that the Death Mark was targeting him... Even if it wasn't, it would be obvious after he dodged the Death Mark's sniper attacks three times in a row.
"Master! Please put on your night vision goggles!"
Howard took off the night vision goggles on his waist and put them on his head.
There was plenty of light in the control room at that moment, and wearing night vision goggles would actually weaken his vision. However, when Howard put on the night vision goggles, he immediately understood why Om Messiah asked him to do so.
From the perspective of night vision goggles, everything is covered with a cold green filter, and objects with temperature, such as the human body and running machinery, will be more eye-catching.
But at this moment, Howard saw that the large environment that originally served as the background was fluctuating like water, and occasionally ripples appeared.
Om Messiah explained to Howard, "This is where the Death Mark's hyperspace is located."
The Death Mark moves by creating a hyperspace, moving within it, and then landing at a drop point in the material universe.
If the real dimension is a piece of paper, and all things that exist in the real dimension are the little people on the paper, then hyperspace is a drop of water dripping on the paper, and the death mark can leave the real "paper" and move in the "water drop".
However, the equipment carried by a Death Mark soldier alone cannot create a very large hyperspace, which means that the movement range of a Death Mark that enters the hyperspace is not unlimited.
Om Messiah can detect the spatial anomalies caused by the overlap of two dimensions, and therefore can divide the hyperspace range created by the Death Mark. This range is the area where the Death Mark will appear next.
However, due to hardware limitations, the Om Messiah's detection capabilities cannot penetrate deep into hyperspace and can only stay in the shallow layer of hyperspace. Therefore, it cannot detect the Death Mark moving in the deep layer of hyperspace.
So when does the Death Mark come from the deep to the shallow? That's when it enters and exits hyperspace.
Therefore, Om Messiah can detect death signs arriving in the shallow layers of hyperspace and issue early warnings.
This "advance" is actually less than a second before the death mark appears, but it is already extremely precious.
After Om Messiah explained everything to Howard, Howard felt more confident. He slowly stood up from behind the shelter and stared at the fluctuating space structure.
The Mark of Death seemed to have noticed that something was wrong with this human, so it also became cautious and did not appear for a long time.
From Howard's perspective, the hyperspace was still rippling. On several occasions, Om Messiah had even detected enemies entering the shallow layer of hyperspace. Specifically, tiny green cracks appeared in the fluctuating space on the night vision goggles, but these cracks did not expand in the end, but healed again.
Just like a crocodile, before hunting, it always sticks its eyes out of the water to observe its prey, but is not in a hurry to attack.
Howard stared at the hyperspace, but patted Christina on the shoulder.
"gun."
Christina: "Huh? Oh!"
Then the little maid hurriedly handed her gun to Howard.
Now his battle with Death Mark is just another kind of cowboy showdown.
The boomerang hit his head so quickly.
