Chapter 82 02.0082: "I really don't want to fight with a stinky can"

Louise cut open the palm of her hand with a knife and squeezed the blood into the bowl.

It was also at this time that Horatio noticed that there were slightly sunken scars on the palm of her hand from burns.

Horatio thought of the girl who had pulled him out of the fire eight years ago, and whose hands were also burned by the red-hot iron rod.

[Could they be the same person?] Horatio wondered as he looked at the scar on Louise's palm.

He wanted to know, but the current situation was obviously not a good time to reminisce about the past. The vaccine’s validity period did not allow them much time, and there was no time to waste.

The medical sister then used hemostatic gel to heal Louise's wounds and used the power of faith to promote the repair of her muscles.

She used the blood to improvise some short-acting antidote and injected it into the nuns.

[+First, we need to use the Hell Gun and the Heat Gun to weaken its external ceramic steel defense. It would be best if we can kill it. If not, I will try to use a high-explosive grenade to blow it up while Sister Arabella is interfering with it.+]

[+Horatio, this is too dangerous, I'm the team leader, I'll go+] Louise took down the high-explosive grenade.

[+You are the only hope against the ship plague, Louise. One of my missions is to make sure you stay alive+]

Horatio snatched the grenade from her hand: [+That's the plan+]

[+What are you arguing about, you little brats, it’s so noisy+]

Sergeant Major Valina, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly snatched the grenade from Horatio's hand: [+You don't even know how to blow it up, watch out, this is how you blow up a Space Marine! +]

She skillfully took off all the grenades on her body and tied them into a cluster grenade using wire.

No one spoke, and everyone saluted her silently.

The nuns quickly chanted a passage of scripture for each of the vanguards, praying for the triumph of these warriors of the God-Emperor.

【+Start the assault! +】

The door of the life support module opened, and four teams plus four combat sisters rushed in from all directions.

It was at the moment he entered the door that Horatio clearly saw the plague warrior.

Due to the mutation, his helmet had only one big eye, and he was huge and fat, at least three meters tall. He was wearing what could only be barely identified as a MK.2 power armor, and his entire body was greasy and green, and extremely dirty. Even through the breath purifier, Horatio could vaguely smell the stench on him.

The moment the door opened, no matter how slow the Plague Marine was, he was still a Space Marine after all. He reacted immediately and raised his gun to shoot.

[+Seek cover! +] Horatio yelled, dragging Louise behind the nearest porch.

The Plague Warriors opened fire with their grenade launchers, and each shot was accompanied by a splash of muddy, foul-smelling liquid.

A scout was hit by a bomb the moment he rushed into the door. His carapace breastplate was shattered, his upper body exploded instantly, and he fell to the ground.

On the data pad, a life signal disappeared, leaving only a dull gray.

[+Fire+] The scouts upstairs fire lasers at the Plague Soldiers at maximum power.

This portly Space Marine was much more agile than they had imagined. He dodged some of the lasers by moving around. Even when he was hit by a volley of heat blasts that penetrated his ceramic armor, the greasy fat under the armor prevented the lasers from penetrating.

Only when Chief Sergeant Valina seized the opportunity and used a plasma gun to shoot with focused energy, she was able to melt a piece of armor that was fused with flesh and blood in his abdomen.

BANG! The Plague Warrior raised his hand and fired a shot, blowing up the head of a scout on the second floor. Blood sprayed on Valina, staining her eyepiece red.

[+He'll kill us all before we can injure him badly, Sister, freeze him! +] Valina yelled, unscrewing the heat dissipation port on the back of the gun to speed up the heat dissipation.

The medical sister began to recite scriptures, and a flash of light exploded in the middle of the life-support module, like an oversized stun bomb.

This move really nailed the Plague Warrior to the spot, shaking his head.
Valina seized the opportunity, slapped the detonators of all the grenades, and jumped down from the second floor with nimbleness.

She rushed towards the Plague Marines and, with her amazing arm strength, threw the cluster grenade at them like throwing a discus. Her whole set of movements were smooth and flowing, and it was obvious that she had experience in fighting against Chaos Space Marines.

But this Space Marine blessed by Nurgle seemed to have other eyes. He raised his grenade launcher in an instant and pulled the trigger.

BANG!

The explosive bomb grazed Valina's arm armor and exploded, shattering it into pieces, revealing the white bones along with the flesh and blood underneath.

Even so, the sergeant gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Boom! The violent explosion shook the entire deck, and Valina was knocked down by the shock wave.

[+No, he's not dead yet. We underestimated his vitality+] Louise murmured as she looked at the fire.

Amid the smoke and fire, Horatio saw a tall figure still standing.

The armor continued to break and peel off the bloated body, the intestines flowed out with mucus, the rotten flesh melted, sizzled, and dripped to the ground, but he was not dead. [+Louise, drag Sergeant Valina back to safety+] Horatio acted decisively and rushed out of the bunker.

【+Where are you going?+】Louise tried to grab Horatio, but her fingertips only brushed across his carapace.

『+Activate: Omen Fragment+』

『+Activate: Power Fist+』

『+Activate: Psionic Attunement+』

『+Energy: 0/7+』

『+Psychic Power: 2/7+』

+Corruption: 4/7+

『+Soul Fire: 11/80+』

[Damn it, I really don’t want to fight this stinky can in close combat! But I have to fight hard.]
Under the cover of smoke, Horatio pulled up the chainsaw sword dropped by the fallen battle sister from the ground.

It was inserted into the fungal carpet, and the long-term maintenance of holy water prevented it from being corroded by Nurgle for the time being.

This time, Horatio attuned to the power of faith of the Sister Medical, coating the chainsaw sword with a faint glow.

To Horatio's relief, he has near-psychic powers, but without the added corruption.

Because this is the unique blessed power of the Emperor. Although it is psychic power, it is the psychic power of the Emperor.

BANG!

Horatio used the Omen Fragment to dodge the Plague Marine's aim, and the broken shrapnel scraped against his armor.

The nuns and the Scouts fired at the Plague Marine, knocking his bolter to the ground.

[+Sister Arabella, please! +]

A faint golden light appeared on the nun's hand, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged.

"Ugh!" The Plague Warrior covered his head with his hand and pulled out a curved dagger that was dripping with mucus from his waist with his other hand.

Buzz—the sound of a chainsaw echoed in the huge cabin.

Horatio activated the Chainsword, its machine soul was already unable to wait to avenge its previous master, it was violent and restless.

[+Everyone, start decontaminating the life support cabin immediately! +] the nun shouted.

Horatio was in close combat with the Space Marines, and it would be easy for him to be injured by mistake if he opened fire. Except for the Sister with a Chainsword who approached the Chaos Space Marines to rescue Horatio, everyone else immediately began the purification work.

The chainsaw and the dagger collided and produced dazzling sparks. Although the plague pig was injured, it seemed that what was falling off was not his flesh and blood, and its movements were still swift.

Its rusty dagger did not break when it collided with the chainsword, and the twisted blade was extremely sharp.

brush--

He was just a beat slow in drawing his sword, and a large hole was cut in Horatio's arm armor like soft clay, almost piercing his close-fitting battle suit and the skin underneath.

The slime adhered to his carapace and began to grow a fungal mat like excrement, corroding his armor.

Horatio suddenly felt sick and stepped back, gritting his teeth to deal with the slime.

The other battle sisters came to support in time and pinned down the plague warrior, allowing Horatio to take time to regroup.

"Great Emperor, your humble herald prays for your bright power..."

The Plague Marine suddenly looked at the Medical Sister who was performing a purification ritual with the power of faith, intending to interrupt her. Horatio seized the opportunity and attacked him. The Chaos Space Marine tried hard to dodge but was still hit in the stomach by the sword.

The overwhelming stench almost blocked Horatio's respirator filter, and the strong, pungent smell was raping his nasal cavity.

He suppressed the stench and swung his sword again.

[+Mission…aborted, emergency…retreat! Chaos…Space Marines have occupied…the bridge, attempting to…warp…everyone…retreat! +]

Suddenly, everyone's channel received a vague communication from the fleet. This was a psychic astropathic communication with the highest anti-interference ability. Every time such a message was sent, a precious astropath would be sacrificed.

boom--

The sudden earthquake made it difficult for everyone to stand firm.
