Chapter 109 02.0108: "Apostle of Khorne"

The furious Brother Romain Rolland supported the charging bronze bull with both hands, threw the monster to the ground, and crushed the bloodletter on it to death.

He felt the blood in his body begin to boil, and a surge of powerful force was surging through his body.

He chopped off the bull's head with an execution-style sword, smashed it at the oncoming bloodletter, knocking a bunch of them away like a solid bullet, and then rushed into the group of demons again to kill them indiscriminately.

The Hell's Vanguards opened fire at full force. From the original 30 people, only 18 soldiers are still able to continue fighting.

Louise emptied her energy backpack, threw away the Hell Gun, put on the Void Blue Beret like Horatio, and held the Cadian Assault Chainsword in hand. She fought side by side with Horatio who was at the front, guarding his back.

The special police officers of the Ministry of Justice held stun hammers high and held explosion-proof shields, and together with the Anglican Crusaders wearing silver plate armor and guarding the church, they formed a shield wall to block the impact of the demons and smash their ugly and deformed heads.

The soldiers of the Cadian Blitzkrieg Army suppressed the demons on the right wing in the standard posture of one row kneeling and two rows standing. The dagger-like bayonets hanging on the muzzles of their guns formed a row of shining swords, stabbing at any demon that approached the front line.

Horatio, wearing the 'Glory Type' Hell's Vanguard Power Armor, activated all his active skills. He was agile and wielded the Holy Blood Chainsaw Sword to tear open the demon's chest.

Behind him was a group of desperate children and civilians. He must not let these demons take one step closer.

The chorus, along with the roar of battle, echoed in the church dome like a choir of angels.

The battle became more and more intense and bloody, and the world of red and black descended once again. Except for the Holy Rose Battle Sisters who still maintained uniform volleys and sang along to the rhythm of hymns, almost everyone felt the raging rage in their hearts. It seemed as if their bodies had endless strength. They were not tired at all because of the long-lasting battle. Instead, they became more and more courageous.

"Prepare to die, I am the son of Ravensburg!" Even David Betty roared and drew his power sword to slash at the demon, and the others were even worse.

"You can't stop anything, son of darkness." The tall vampire roared at Horatio with its bloody and ugly mouth, and then it rushed up.

Horatio parried its black sword with one blow, and Louise swung it back with one blow.

"You will watch helplessly as we cut off the heads of the people you protect and present them to our master."

"Go to hell, devil." The furious Horatio gritted his teeth and slashed at the vampire, roaring, "No one's life will be tainted by you!"

Even Louise, who was always calm, shouted loudly: "We will definitely thwart your evil plan!"

The two rushed towards the demon together, and the chainsword beat the bloodletter back step by step.

Horatio rushed forward, grabbed its long, ugly purple tongue, pulled it out, and then cut off its head with a sword.

He raised the vampire's head and shouted to the warrior beside him:
"Today we will serve the God-Emperor under the watchful eyes of Sanguinius! Even if there are only a hundred of us, that is enough to hold our ground! We will stop these demons! We have the motivation to repel their attack once again."

"For the God-Emperor! For Sanguinius!" The warriors roared and launched a counterattack against the evil demons rushing towards them.

The laser guns stopped firing, and the guards had run out of energy blocks, but they roared together, shouting "For Cadia!", raising their bayonets and launching a counterattack against the demons that were charging over the shield wall.

"For Cardia!!!" Louise was deeply moved and roared as well. She chopped off the head of a hellhound that rushed towards her and crushed it with her foot.

The majestic war roar drowned out the demon's terrifying voice.

Pfft!
A Hell Sniper with the number 15 written on his shoulder armor knelt at Horatio's feet, his chest torn by the black sword. A large amount of blood gushed out from the gap, staining the already bright red carpet darker.

Horatio could see the red light in his helmet eyes fading, the life signals on the dataslate turning to a blank gray-black.

"Team leader!" Archie shouted, but he had no time to drag his team leader to the back. He held a chainsaw sword in one hand and a naval dagger in the other, fighting a bloody battle with the devil.

"He's dead, keep fighting! Archie. We have to stop these evil spirits!", Horatio shouted at the angry Archie, he held a bolt pistol in one hand and slashed with the other, taking out his anger at his fallen comrade on the bloodletter.

"Then let us be like Captain Saint Abridal (the captain who drove a battlecruiser to attack the three Black Stone Fortresses during the Gothic War)! Use our lives to light the torch of victory!" Archie shed tears of grief and anger, roared and slashed.

[+Cough+] Not far away, Leidos knelt on the ground, his two arms cut off by the black sword that was swung at him, and his painful groans were heard over the communication channel.

[+Ledos! +] Fideo rushed towards his companion and used his chainsword to block the blow aimed at his head, but was hit in the waist.

【+Ah! +】He fell to the ground, holding his wound, blood gushing out of his armor.

【+Horatio, we have to help them! +】Louise said to Horatio trembling with anxiety.

[+Louise, one side each, stop the demons. Sister Arabella, please! +] He gritted his teeth and cut a bloody path with Louise to block the two men, but they had no energy to help their two teammates. They could only stand in front of the fallen teammate and fight the demons that rushed over after smelling the blood.

Brother Romain Rolland forcibly pushed the demon away. He swung his chainsword and resolutely stood in front of the two mortals, relieving the pressure on them.

Sister Arabella's black hair appeared in Horatio's eyes, her face was covered with sweat, the white scarf on her head was gone, and there were scars of battle on her body.

Even so, she continued to slash at the demons with the short saw on her arm, while dragging the injured Leidos and Fideo to the back of the battle line for rescue.

The battle was brutal and bloody, but the situation was still under the control of the imperial defenders. Their casualties were still within an tolerable range, and they should be able to hold out until reinforcements from outside arrive.

At the call of the Ritual Sisters, the civilians tried their best to suppress their fear and sang along to the rhythm of the hymns, providing the warriors with the power of faith and protecting them from being corrupted by the evil power of the Blood God.

Boom! ! Violent explosions and the whistling sound of aircraft passed over the church. Lasers and shells exploded in the red tide of vampires.

The sound of firing outside grew louder and louder, like the light of dawn, piercing the darkness.

Everyone knew that reinforcements were coming.

[+Horatio, tens of thousands of Imperial Navy armed forces, supported by fighter planes' air strikes, are launching a fierce attack on the Cathedral of the Goddess of Heaven. They have already reached the square outside the cathedral. You must hold on! +] Farida's voice and the sound of intensive gunfire came over the communication.

From her commanding position, she provided real-time battle updates and support to the reinforcements and Horatio, her sweet voice already becoming a little hoarse from shouting.

[+Is there any airborne support? Our defense line needs to be strengthened! We can’t hold on any longer! +]

[+Forced blasting from the top of the church will cause the top to collapse. You can only let the troops break the glass windows and then jump to your side with the gravity parachute+]

[+That's it! We'll do our best to hold on! Please+]

[+The Storm Heirs are on their way. Master Sergeant Valina will be here in a few minutes! The Second Captain of the Blood Angels has already dispatched two Blood Angels assault teams to return on Thunderhawks to provide assistance. +]

Farida looked at the real-time support positioning signal and immediately used the laser beam on her gun to provide breakthrough instructions for the Valkyrie fighter flying in the distance.

It was filled with elite loyalist stormtroopers, led by senior Sergeant Major Valina, and equipped with weapons such as plasma and heat volley guns.

This was good and exciting news for the defenders in the church, but Horatio had less than fifty people around him. Scattered demons pushed down the heavy mobile shields and penetrated into the defense line through the gaps.

"Warriors of the God-Emperor, our reinforcements are on the way! Hold on!" Horatio shouted.

The last of the reserved Cadian soldiers rushed forward and used their bayonets and flesh and blood to stop the demons from tearing through the front line.

"Blood sacrifice to the blood god! Skull sacrifice to the skull throne!!!" A piercing and powerful roar instantly caught Horatio's attention.

He saw the thing he least wanted to see.

Eight tall Chaos Space Marines in baroque brass armour dual wielded chain axes, their helmets sporting large scalloped horns or bull horns, their pauldrons black with brass plated rims.

The epaulettes were smeared with an extremely unclean symbol - the Mark of Khorne combined with the Chaos Eight-pointed Star.

[It is the 'Eightfold Stigmata' warband.]
These guys are a group of extremely crazy fanatics. They see themselves as the only true believers of Khorne. Their terrible fanaticism draws them from one war zone to another like an endless wave of blood.

His fanaticism attracted many Khorne berserkers to join his ranks, and this is a reflection of the warband's loyalty to Khorne.

Because they are so favored by Khorne, they can easily summon the demonic servants of their Khorne master, the bloodthirsty Jaharax and Kabanhar, from the depths of the Warp into the physical universe during battle.

This kind of thing must never happen!
The rushing Outlaws arrogantly challenged the two wounded Blood Angels to a duel. They joined the slaughter from the rifts, and it was easier than the reinforcements from the Empire.

But the Blood Angels paid no heed. Although their thirst for blood had been aroused, under the gaze of the statue of Sanguinius, they remained rational and held their own line like the 9th Legion, rather than letting anger control their brains.

The elite reinforcements of both sides are rushing to the battlefield as much as possible, but once the reinforcements from the Empire arrive, the outcome will be revealed, so the Khorne warband wants to end the battle quickly before the reinforcements from the Empire arrive.

A race against time and overtime began.
