Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monster Horde

Ace Robot nodded, spread both hands up and down, and then posed in an extremely curved stance.

A pure white light blade began to condense in Ace Robot's hands, and soon, a crescent-shaped slash was instantly launched.

The two Hive Fleet bio-ships ahead failed to evade in time and were directly sliced apart.

Ace's Guillotine technique was incredibly sharp—it cut through monsters as if it were child's play, and Hive Fleet bio-ships were no exception. In terms of armor, the defense of ordinary monsters already far exceeded human imagination, let alone Super Beasts, whose armor and mass were not necessarily inferior to the Hive Fleet's bio-ships.

They might even surpass them. Massive creatures, standing dozens of meters tall and weighing tens of thousands of tons, were no joke in terms of sheer mass.

The fact that Ace's Guillotine technique could slice through them as easily as cutting a watermelon spoke volumes about its power.

Immediately afterward, Ace Robot placed both hands in front of his chest and began to absorb energy. A massive circular light blade started to form in his palms.

Then, he threw out the Eight-Point Light Wheel, which rapidly multiplied in space, turning into more than a dozen silver-white circular light blades. In an instant, they shredded several Tyranid bio-ships into pieces.

Next, Ace Robot performed a demonstration for Rhodes, showcasing Horizontal Guillotine, Vertical Guillotine, Circular Guillotine, and Multi-Layered Guillotine.

With a flourish, he demonstrated what it truly meant to be a Master of Cutting, a Meat Processing Plant Director, and a Beam Master.

Even though this was not the real Ultraman Ace, the Ace Robot, standing at 52 meters tall and enhanced to the extreme, displayed power that even surpassed Ace's normal form.

The Guillotine techniques were undeniably sharp, but when dealing with the Hive Fleet, they were still not as effective as Metallium Rays—at the very least, their attack range was inferior.

Moreover, when it came to dealing with the Tyranids, the Metallium Rays, which caused intense explosions and high temperatures, were more effective.

Having witnessed the legendary Ultra Guillotine techniques, Rhodes ordered Ace Robot to continue using Metallium Rays.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Deathwatch members had already made several trips back and forth between their ship and the battlefield while Rhodes was dealing with the Tyranid bio-ships.

The Deathwatch members were getting more and more exhilarated. In just over half an hour, they had destroyed four Hive Ships in succession.

After nodding once more to Rhodes, the Deathwatch members set off again, while Rhodes took a moment to record the usage of the Teleportation Bracelets.

Each round trip consumed two teleportation charges. With their current range—spanning astronomical distances—even with two Teleportation Bracelets, they could only teleport ten times.

If they returned once more, they would no longer be able to conduct teleportation strikes unless Rhodes provided them with new bracelets.

But that was enough. By now, the Hive Fleet must have maximized its defenses. It was time to change tactics—after all, the Tyranids would soon develop a countermeasure against repetitive strategies.

After firing more than a dozen full-power Metallium Rays, Ace Robot was nearly out of energy. Yet, the Hive Fleet's bio-ships continued their relentless assault, seemingly endless.

It was as if the Hive Mind had been enraged by Rhodes!

This time, there was no sign of retreat—the Tyranid fleet swarmed in, covering the sky, attacking without regard for losses.

Having lost over ten Hive Ships to Rhodes' various attacks, the Great Devourer was furious.

But did Rhodes care?

"Like hell, I care! I'm going to fight you to the bitter end and crush your Tyranid swarm until you surrender!"

On Ace Robot's side, a few Hive Ships occasionally slipped past and entered the attack range of Iron.

Once Iron absorbed enough energy, it began replenishing Ace's reserves, forming a perfect energy loop.

A burst of blue light flashed as the Deathwatch members returned to the ship once more. Rhodes pressed the detonation button, blowing up yet another Hive Ship.

So far, they had already destroyed five Hive Ships, earning Rhodes a total of 100,000 system credits.

Adding in the countless Tyranid Hive Fleet bio-ships destroyed by Ace Robot, Rhodes' system credits had skyrocketed to over 250,000 once again.

However, this time, some of the returning Deathwatch members were injured!

Some had suffered serious wounds, a few were in a near-death state, and several had even lost limbs.

"What happened?" Rhodes turned and asked.

"Lord Rhodes, as soon as we arrived near the Hive Ship, we were immediately attacked. But luckily, we completed our mission," the Deathwatch lieutenant reported.

"Tell me in detail—what enemies did you encounter?" Rhodes asked.

"Lord Rhodes, as soon as we entered, we were struck by a terrifying psychic attack. Several Tyranid Executioners and Hive Guard appeared around us and launched an assault.

We barely managed to complete the mission. Four battle brothers are in a near-death state, three lost their arms, and the rest suffered varying degrees of injuries.

But my lord, we can continue the mission!" the Deathwatch lieutenant said firmly, nodding at Rhodes.

This mission wasn't particularly difficult—even if they lost all their Space Marines, destroying a single Hive Ship would still be worth it. And now, they had already destroyed five.

"I understand. I will arrange for your treatment shortly. For now, suspend the mission and rest," Rhodes said with a nod.

The Tyranid Hive Mind wasn't stupid—after losing five Hive Ships to repeated teleportation strikes, they were bound to take action. Sending the Deathwatch out again at this point would just be sending them to their deaths.

Besides, Rhodes had earned enough credits from destroying Hive Ships and Tyranid bio-ships to undergo a new round of enhancements.

"For the Emperor! My Lord! We can still fight!"

Just as Rhodes was about to refuse, a sudden burst of blue light lit up inside the ship.

Out of nowhere, a dozen monstrous Tyranid creatures appeared within Rhodes' vessel!

The moment the Deathwatch Space Marines saw the Tyranids, they immediately attacked and positioned themselves protectively around Rhodes.

"Brothers! The Tyranids have launched a boarding assault! Protect the Lord!

To the death! Kill these Xenos!"

The surviving Deathwatch members roared and raised their weapons, charging at the dozen Tyranids that had suddenly appeared.

A brutal melee erupted within Rhodes' ship.

These Tyranids were an elite force, led by two Hive Tyrants, with the rest being high-tier Tyranid units.

Rhodes quickly drew his Pendanium Ray Pistol, aimed at one of the Hive Tyrants, and fired several precise shots—blowing its head clean off.
