Chapter 96 02.0096: "Explosive Assault"

10 minutes before the terrorist attack.

On the stage, Anna Fei, a famous opera actress from Abyss Port, is performing a tragedy. The theme is the story of a mortal hero of the empire defending the invaded bishop's world and fighting a bloody battle with the enemy of the empire in the church with his lover until death.

"I'm so touched. This is the love that lasts till death."

Sitting in a curtained compartment on the side of the viewing platform, Thei wiped her tears with a handkerchief and sighed: "What a heroic and romantic death! It would be great if my life could end in such a grand way."

"Ms. Peru, you will live a happy and fulfilling life." The girl sitting next to her comforted her.

Thei let out a long sigh and looked towards the stage. Soon, the lovers would detonate the bomb placed in the church and perish together with the enemies of the empire.

"If we are destined to die here for love today, let the God-Emperor redeem our souls!" As the red-haired actress in a fishtail skirt fell into his arms, the actor on the stage shouted and pressed the switch in his hand.

boom! ! ! ——

A huge explosion suddenly occurred.

Everyone felt the ground shake and the chandelier above their heads swayed.

Many audience members in the audience applauded enthusiastically for the realistic stage effects.

"What was that just now?" Thei realized that the explosion came from outside.

"It came from outside. It's an attack!" Yin Shuyao stood up from her seat. Having grown up in the underground world, she was extremely sensitive to attacks. She was sure that it was not a show effect.

"Guards!" Thei called out calmly, and six red-clad guards hurried to the young lady's side: "Escort us out."

Below the stage, some officers who were watching the show also noticed something was wrong. Having been on the warship for so long, they could even keenly sense which part of the ship's gun turret was firing, and it was impossible for them not to notice that the explosion came from outside.

"Everyone leave immediately!" A naval colonel stood up and shouted, and the lieutenants and guards sitting around him also stood up and pulled out their guns from their waists.

Suddenly, bursts of gunfire and screams were heard in the waiting hall of the opera house. A large group of armed men wearing scarlet blasphemous symbols kicked the guards away, rushed into the theater, and fired at the crowd.

"Blood sacrifice to the blood god, skull sacrifice to the skull throne!"

The red carpet was soaked with blood, and the upper-class people, who were dressed in gorgeous clothes, fell to the ground like straw harvested by a sickle, with terrified looks on their faces as they died.

The soldiers immediately sought cover and exchanged fire with the thugs, with the whizzing sounds of bullets and lasers flying around the theater.

But their firepower was insufficient. Under the fierce shooting of a sturdy Khorne mutant sheep-headed man with a light logging rifle, the back of the chair was instantly pierced. The colonel and his adjutant were shot several times and fell on the chairs. The last bit of resistance was lost, and only a despicable massacre remained.

Thei and Yin Shuyao hurried downstairs from the side emergency exit under the protection of six guards. Miss Peru took out a defensive revolver designed specifically for ladies from her handbag.

Suddenly, they bumped into Khorne cultists who were rushing up the stairs. The guards and cultists were each stunned for a second.

boom!
Thei opened fire first, shooting through the chests of two cultists. The accompanying maid screamed, and the piercing scream ignited a fight between the two sides.

The guards and the cultists opened fire at the same time. The two guards walking in the front and five or six cult militants below fell to the ground at the same time. The guards' white gloves were stained with blood.

"Retreat!" Thei gave the order and fired two shots at the stairs.

She pulled a grenade from the nearest guard's waist, unbolted it, and threw it down.

Taking advantage of the time provided by the explosion, the survivors retreated immediately.

"Push down the marble coffee table and use it as a breastwork!" Thei ordered, demonstrating tactical thinking that was inconsistent with her gender and age.

The guards and maids immediately did as they were told, overturned the luxurious marble round table in the box, faced the cultists, and fought back from cover, shooting down a large group of thugs who rushed up.

The two girls also took this opportunity to return to the place where they watched the play.

The mutant saw the explosion and walked upstairs.

It carried its lumbering gun, and the huge 12.7mm steel-core bullets shattered the marble and the guards hiding behind it.

Blood splattered on the maids' skirts. They were at a loss and looked at the attacker in horror.

But the Khorne believers don't care whether they are men or women, they just want to use blood to sacrifice to their tyrannical and evil god.

The goat-headed man pulled the trigger of the lumberjack gun, and the maids fell to the ground. Blood flowed under Thei's white shoes, and her beautiful face became gloomy.

Yin Shuyao picked up the guard's Lucius laser gun from the ground and adjusted it to high-energy mode.

"Very skilled." Thei said with a smile.

"This is a skill that people in the underground world must learn," Yin Shuyao said.

"You, aren't you, a militant of the 'Citizens' Army'? I heard there are many students in it who are dissatisfied with the planet's capitalist oligarchic government." Thei smiled and reached into his bag.

Yin Shuyao's pupils dilated, and she quickly shook her head and argued, "Of course not, Miss Peru, you misunderstood!"

"Of course, I don't care about that. Since I chose you to serve me, then just show me all your abilities." The girl smiled.

She pulled a laser booby trap from her bag and attached it to one of the bottom edges of the curtain, then returned to the coffee table.

The heavy and terrifying footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the sound of bullet chains scraping against the armor could be clearly heard.

Thei reloaded the cylinder of his defensive pistol, snapped it back into place, and thumbed the hammer. "Come, meet our fate, we will be the stars of the stage."
-
3 minutes ago, outside the theater.

The Imperial Navy's Valkyrie fighters and the Law Enforcement Department's Lemanus tanks surrounded the opera house and crushed the enemies defending outside the opera house with fierce firepower.

The Arbitral Tribunal's black Lemanus tanks crushed the luxurious marble walls, and two tracked armored vehicles belonging to the Imperial Navy followed behind.

This specially built experimental armored vehicle resembles the 3K-era AAV-7 amphibious armored vehicle, but is taller and longer.

It can put down a solid and thick armored springboard in front of it, and outside the springboard is a wall-breaking hot melt. One is full of Imperial Navy Hell Snipers, and the other is full of Law Department Special Police.

Above, two Valkyrie fighters hovered above the opera house, its rear cabin opened, and the Hell Sniper threw out a rappelling cable from inside.

The operation was carried out by two groups, A and B. Group A broke through the wall and entered the waiting hall and rushed into the theater. Group B directly detonated the ceiling at the top of the theater and descended to the back of the stands, attacking from the front and back.

The red indicator light in the cabin shines on the Hell Soldier's MK1 experimental power armor, giving off a strong sense of oppression.

[+Assault, begin! +] At Horatio's command, he stood at the front, wearing a void blue beret on his head, symbolizing his status as a sergeant major, and carrying a holy blood chainsword on his back that looked like a large sword.

Lati specially installed a magnetic sword holder on his "Glory Type" back armor so that he could use the Holy Blood Chainsaw Sword specially made for Space Marines.

The armored vehicle's engine roared and it charged straight into the outer wall of the opera house like a raging bull.

All members stood, their shoulder armor held down by the stabilizing mechanical arms on the roof, and their boots attached to the steel floor.

【+Prepare for impact! +】

The theater hall was flooded with blood as the thugs ruthlessly and brutally executed the survivors who fell to the ground.

"Why is there no movement outside?"

"Those cowardly followers of the false emperor have given up. We will soon kill everyone here and usher in the advancement of the righteous path!"

"We are warriors!!!"

The berserker holding the blasphemous chainsword just roared when the high wall behind him collapsed instantly. Huge rocks fell from the sky and smashed him into a pool of blood and mud.

The assault vehicle's armored ramp was quickly lowered from the front.

hum-

The pulleys on the Hell Soldier's combat boots began to turn and the motor began to produce power.

Horatio led the charge out of the wall-breaking assault vehicle, followed closely by Louise and Farida.

Louise only knew that the girl next to her was the daughter of Major General Hood, and that she was the one who discovered Horatio's true identity, but she didn't know much else.

【+注意，3点钟方向高处4人，12点上方6米2人+】霍雷肖标定了方位。

Farida turned around quickly and pulled the trigger four times. Four pieces of body fell from the platform above.

Then she used the pulley to gracefully turn forward like she was skating, and eliminated the enemy who was about to attack from the commanding heights above her.

[+Threat eliminated+] Farida replied gracefully and calmly.

Louise could see that the blonde girl was very excited and active in the battle, and her marksmanship was also very good. Those enemies who came out from the commanding heights from all directions were killed by her as soon as they showed their heads.

She also has a better divination radar, which tells Horatio the enemy's movements in real time so that Horatio can make more precise tactical arrangements.

Moreover, she found that this girl seemed to be competing with her for the position of Horatio's adjutant. Whatever she did, she would always do better.

However, Louise was of simple mind. Having grown up in the Cardia military camp, she did not understand the little thoughts and intrigues of these aristocratic girls.

With the swift attack of the Hell's Vanguard, the cultists were caught off guard and fell to the ground one after another.

The speed of the Hell's Vanguards was much faster than that of the Ministry of Justice's special police. By the time the special police all rushed out of the vehicle and fired the first shot, the battle in the hall had already been ended by the Hell's Vanguards.

[+God-Emperor, this is a blasphemous atrocity+] Louise looked at the corpses scattered on the ground.

After the mob stormed the theater, people were violently pushed against the wall and executed by machine gun fire.

Their deaths were horrible, and at a glance, there were at least a hundred victims. Their heads were cut off one by one and piled on the exquisite marble steps covered with red carpets. Blood flowed down the steps like a waterfall, step by step, and it was a real river of blood.

[+May the Emperor redeem their souls+] Seeing so many innocent deaths, Farida, who used to be a vigilante in the Ministry of Justice, felt a little sad and her nose was sore.

The Hell Troopers and the Ministry of Justice were dispatched quite quickly, but these Khorne believers enjoyed killing, which was completely different from an ordinary hostage-taking incident.

This is a truly indiscriminate terrorist attack.

"Search all around." said the special police.

Suddenly, Farida turned her head and shouted, "Be careful upstairs."

"Go to hell, you running dog of the false emperor!"

A sturdy man suddenly jumped down from the second floor. The ammunition of the scouts and special police hit him. The special police from the Ministry of Justice who was hit by him saw the equipment on his body clearly at the moment of falling - a row of thermal melt bombs.

boom!
