Chapter 62 - Hit the target

The Tyranid Hive Tyrant's vitality and regenerative abilities were terrifyingly strong.

Even while enduring attacks from everyone, the injuries on various parts of its body were recovering at an incredibly fast rate.

The tentacle whip, whose end had been shattered by a melta bomb, had already recovered completely.

Moreover, the Tyranid Hive Tyrant began to consciously use the incredibly tough bone blades in its hands to block powerful attacks.

Many of the charged Plasma shots fired by Straban were blocked by the wide bone blades, scattering into clusters of blue, high-temperature sparks.

For a short period, everyone could only suppress the Tyranid Hive Tyrant, but they were consistently unable to land a truly fatal blow.

At this moment, many Tyranid had appeared on the platform, beginning to attack the four individuals, attempting to buy time for the Tyranid Hive Tyrant to recover.

If they didn't quickly eliminate the Tyranid Hive Tyrant, they would eventually be surrounded and killed.

Psychic Flying Knives shot out, and Marcus began to swiftly clear out the annoying Tyranid.

Looking up, Vespasia had once again activated her jetpack, diving down towards the Tyranid Hive Tyrant.

The situation was urgent; the risk of close combat with the Tyranid Hive Tyrant, as well as the risk of friendly fire, could no longer be considered.

Everyone had to inflict damage exceeding the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's regeneration capacity within this time frame.

However, things did not go as planned.

The Plasma bursts that shot out were all blocked by the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's massive bone blades, and the Bolter rounds couldn't even penetrate the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's defenses.

The Hellgun laser beam from Marcus's hand could only penetrate some non-vital parts of the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's body, unable to cause sufficient damage.

As for Vespasia, who engaged in close-quarters combat despite the risks, she found it very difficult to land a charged Thunder Hammer attack in the face of the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's agile tentacle whip.

The Tyranid Hive Tyrant's originally severed left leg had largely repaired itself, with new muscles and bones rapidly interweaving.

It wouldn't be long before the Tyranid Hive Tyrant would regain its mobility.

Even a severely wounded Tyranid Hive Tyrant was not something a few individuals, lacking armor support and heavy firepower, could deal with.

Behind cover, Marcus took a deep breath.

At the same time, he pulled out the remaining three melta bombs.

"I have three melta bombs here. You distract him, and I'll try to detonate them simultaneously to kill that monster!" Marcus said rapidly over the communication channel.

The other three immediately agreed to Marcus's plan.

They had already witnessed Marcus's Mind Power abilities before, and he could indeed remotely detonate melta bombs.

The only problem was that if these melta bombs were detonated simultaneously, Vespasia, who was in close combat with the Tyranid Hive Tyrant, would also be harmed.

"It's fine, just attack. I will keep this monster distracted!"

With that, Vespasia flashed, dodging the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's tentacle whip.

He was the most crucial part of this plan.

If no one entangled this agile tentacle whip, the melta bombs would have no way of getting close to the Tyranid Hive Tyrant.

Without hesitation, Mind Power enveloped the three melta bombs.

Then, under Marcus's control, the three melta bombs scattered, flying rapidly towards the Tyranid Hive Tyrant from three completely different directions.

Under Marcus's full exertion, the melta bombs were so fast that they left afterimages.

melta bombs were not light, small, and streamlined flying knives.

Accelerating them to such a speed put considerable mental strain on Marcus.

Under Marcus's full exertion, it only took two or three seconds for the three melta bombs to rapidly approach the Tyranid Hive Tyrant.

The Tyranid Hive Tyrant was not unaware of the melta bombs heading its way.

The incredibly agile tentacle whip, possessing a certain degree of self-awareness, lashed out once more, attempting to simultaneously knock down the three melta bombs coming from completely different directions.

However, before the whip could fully extend, the Thunder Hammer, imbued with terrifying power, slammed violently onto the hand of the Tyranid Hive Tyrant that was holding the tentacle whip.

At the same time, another fully charged Plasma shot, along with several grenades, struck the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's bone blades.

Having encountered so many attacks simultaneously, even the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's originally incredibly swift movements slowed down by half a beat.

It was this half-beat of time that allowed two melta bombs to successfully evade the tentacle whip's strike and adhere to the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's body.

"Get clear!"

Without needing a reminder, Vespasia immediately activated his jetpack, rapidly dodging to the side under the thrust.

The Tyranid Hive Tyrant roared, slashing down with the bone blade and claws in its hands, trying to grab the retreating Vespasia.

The next second.

Two bright, dazzling bursts of scorching light erupted, completely engulfing the Tyranid Hive Tyrant.

Even though Vespasia activated his jetpack in time and created some distance, he was still thrown dozens of meters away by the massive shockwave.

"Cough, cough!"

Vespasia stood up, removed his helmet, and coughed up a significant amount of blood.

Fortunately, with the protection of his power armor, his injuries were not too severe.

Everyone focused intently on the center of the area, which was shrouded in smoke and dust.

But after a few seconds, no movement was heard.

"Be careful, that monster isn't dead yet!" Marcus immediately shouted over the communication channel.

If the Tyranid Hive Tyrant were truly dead, he should have received a codex message from the system.

But now, the system panel was completely silent.

No sooner had he spoken.

The smoke and dust cleared.

The terribly mangled Tyranid Hive Tyrant appeared before everyone's eyes.

The two melta bombs had inflicted extremely terrifying damage on the Tyranid Hive Tyrant.

Both of the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's arms, holding the bone blade and tentacle whip, were completely blown off at the root, and the bone blade and tentacle whip had vanished without a trace.

Its entire upper body had been largely melted by the melta bombs exploding at extremely close range, and a pungent burnt smell emanated from the Tyranid Hive Tyrant.

As for its lower body, it was even more gruesome.

Both of its thick legs were completely blown off at the root, and its tail behind it had also disappeared.

Large amounts of unknown organs and tissues gushed from the wounds, falling to the ground.

The two melta bombs detonating simultaneously seemed to have produced some kind of synergistic reaction, their power far exceeding that of the previous melta bomb.

However, despite suffering such immense damage, the Tyranid Hive Tyrant stubbornly refused to die.

Instead, it was still brewing a final psychic attack.

Not daring to be negligent, Marcus immediately activated the Energy Feedback skill again, extracting the already dwindling psychic reserves from the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's body.

This Energy Feedback successfully interrupted the Tyranid Hive Tyrant's final death throes.

At the same time, the structural damage it caused became the final straw that broke the camel's back.
