Chapter 84 02.0084: "An Angel Descends to Me"
The magnetic rail train running through the middle of the ship ruthlessly knocked aside anything that stood in its way.
The sticky green mutant blood stained the windshield, all the windows were opened, and the survivors set up weapons and turned it into an armored train.
[+The Hell Gun's energy is running low, don't shoot at unnecessary units+] Valina has almost lost her ability to fight, and Horatio is elected as the temporary commander-in-chief of the operation.
He was recognized by his teammates and nuns, and even Harvey, who had a higher rank than him, remained silent and listened to Horatio's arrangements.
But this also means that he shoulders an important mission: to be responsible for bringing as many people out alive as possible.
[+Our mission plan is to shut down the subspace jump engine first, and then rush to the docking station as quickly as possible. We only have 15 minutes left to shut down the engine. Every action of every person is related to our success or failure+]
[+Our sisters will take the lead+] said Sister Arabella.
[+God's Blessing+] Horatio gave the nuns the Eagle Salute.
On the way, they came across the remains of the second lost squad of battle sisters. They were cut into pieces, physically destroyed.
[+God-Emperor, how big a blade would it take to cut them like this...+] Louise felt a sense of foreboding and said worriedly.
[+May the God-Emperor redeem their souls and guide them to the Golden Throne+] Sister Arabella prayed sadly.
The maglev train gradually slowed down under the operation of Leidos, and the clearing task was left to the pioneers' hell guns and hot-wire volley guns, while the precious Godwin-Diaz bombs were reserved for more difficult enemies.
The machine spirit of the shielding door was tamed by Horatio using his prosthetic limbs and opened obediently.
The sisters of the Holy Rose instantly formed a line and opened fire inside.
Two plague-corrupted tech-priests immediately called upon their minions to rush towards the uninvited guests.
The scouts followed closely behind, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out between the two sides at medium distance.
An infected Tech-Priest saw Horatio's prosthetic arm and immediately rushed towards him with the massive Mecha-Axe.
Horatio drew out the chainsword he had picked up and rushed forward, sword and axe clashed, lightning and fire flew.
Every strike produced dazzling lightning and jumping sparks.
[The prosthetic limb is slowly charging?] Horatio caught a glimpse of a lighted energy bar with his peripheral vision.
"010100101" Horatio couldn't understand what he was saying. Every time he used binary language, his attacks would become more fierce.
The technical priest's limbs were blessed with mechanical strength, and each of his blows was no lighter than that of the plague pig. What was more troublesome was that the prosthetic limbs on his back were both tools and weapons. A sudden blow caused Horatio's shell shoulder armor to dent, leaving him numb for a while.
Horatio's two fists fight four hands in a physical sense.
[You are not the only one with a killer weapon!]
He raised his hand and waved, trapping the technical priest with the telekinetic energy he had quietly accumulated, then took a step forward and slashed with his sword.
The saber teeth tore through the priest's dirty vestments, revealing the black mechanical body underneath.
This man had undergone severe transformation and was almost not weakened. When he chopped him with a sword, only engine oil mixed with blood, lubricant, and a small amount of milky white liquid flowed out of the ruptured pipes.
[This thing... is it the body fluid of the technical priest?] Horatio inappropriately recalled the milky white liquid that remained on the tip of his iron finger after the operation.
But he didn't have time to think about it at the moment. Horatio activated the Power Fist again and swung the sword with tremendous force.
The technical priest suddenly revealed an emblem on his body, and a mind-disturbing shock wave hit him.
[Is that... the mark of the Black Mechanicus?] Horatio looked at the emblem and had some impression of it, but he was not sure.
He then used the same holy light explosion as the Battle Sister, forcing the black oil guy to retreat again and again.
Horatio took a step forward, swung his buzzing chainsword and chopped at the tech-priest's head. He wanted to use the detectors on his body to block it by blinding him, but Horatio easily fooled him with a feint and turned the chops into straight stabs.
hum! !
Black liquid and oil gushed down the saber teeth, staining Horatio's carapace black.
Seeing one priest being killed, another corrupted priest immediately controlled the servitor to rush towards Horatio, but was instantly knocked down by a volley of explosives from the battle sisters.
The room was cleared, and several pioneers from the fleet engineering field stepped forward to operate the display console and try to cancel the subspace jump.
[What's this? ]
Horatio discovered that the slain priest was wearing a small pendant around his metal neck, which seemed to contain a liquid like dark mercury.
[Could it be that these guys jointly caused this accident?] Horatio thought. If so, things would be very scary. Not only was there a threat from within the Abyssport planet, but the joint threat from outside was also equally severe.
In the official history of GW, the Gothic Fleet was as weak as a sick lion in 999.M41 because of this internal and external difficulties.
Since he was the black oil man, Horatio accepted the gadget just to be on the safe side.
[+Enemy attack! Take cover! +] Louise yelled, and a large red dot suddenly appeared on the auspicious instrument, a symbol of the coming of the Chaos Space Marines.
BANG!
Everyone immediately looked for cover, and a bomb shattered the Hell Soldier who was risking his life to shut down the transformer. That was the last step to cut off the jump.
Just one step away.
[+Ah! Ah! De Dante is dead, what should we do! +] David Betty, who was lying under the corpse, was covered in blood. This young noble, who was on the battlefield for the first time, was very panicked.
Henry Harvey stuck his head out and was almost shot in the head.
[+God-Emperor, we are finished+] He leaned against the cover in despair, muttering to himself.
He saw seven Plague Warriors.
[+There are seven attacking plague warriors, stay calm+] Horatio also saw it. While fighting back, he thought about countermeasures.
Although the path to the docking station was clear, they could not outrun the bolter bombs and the accuracy of the Space Marines, and would be blown to pieces by the bolter bombs as soon as they left the cover.
And there is not much time left for this ship to make a subspace transition.
Horatio looked at the jump engine. The subspace force field generator was already operating and the data readings of the psychic radiation warning were rising rapidly.
They won't even have time to wait until they enter the warp. Once the warp engine is fully operational, all of them will become twisted and hideous warp monsters.
Om-! ! !
[What's that sound? A jump drive?] Horatio heard a huge jump wave, but it seemed to be coming from the outside to the right.
[There must be a way. If this is the end of my life, I want to see what my final fate will be.]
『+Activate: Omen Fragment+』
『+Energy: 3/7+』
『+Psychic Power: 6/7+』
+Corruption: 5/7+
『+Soul Fire: 22/80+』
[+Everyone, wrap the high-explosive grenades on your bodies into a circle and throw them to me+] Sergeant Valina, with one arm bandaged, leaned behind the bunker, looked up at the sky, and gave orders.
[+It's not the end yet, Master Chief+] Louise guessed Valina's intention and shouted.
[+Death is my mission, not yours. It would be great if I could drag a few Chaos Space Marines with me to take the blame. Hahahaha+] Valina laughed morbidly and wrapped the grenade around her arm.
[+Sisters, prepare for our final battle, Saint Arabella saves our souls+] Arabella, who has the same name as the holy nun, recited prayers while dancing with her fingers.
A faint halo appeared above the Battle Sister's head, and blurry wings of light appeared behind her.
The person who saw the light circle, the hesitation and wavering in his heart disappeared instantly.
[+If I am destined to die here today, I will only live up to the glory of Ravensburg+] Even David Betty silently drew out the family heirloom power dagger from his waist.
[+Everyone!+] Horatio's voice suddenly became excited.
[Maximize the positioning signal source! Quick! ]
The others didn't know why Horatio suddenly said this, but they did it anyway.
[+Just take it as a way of telling everyone that we are fighting to the death here+] Harvey was the first to do so.
boom!
Suddenly, there was another violent earthquake, but this time, the sharp sound of metal tearing triggered the emergency noise reduction of the Shield of Orm helmet.
[+This is... a boarding attack! Everyone, get into cover immediately! Quickly! +] As a member of the ship's assault department, Louise was very familiar with this voice. In order to prevent her companions from being hurt by the steel fragments that were about to splash out of the cabin, she immediately gave the order.
[+Here they come, the angels are coming+] Horatio raised the corner of his mouth indifferently.
