Chapter 11 Missions
"Soshyang!"
Soshyang, who was trying to eliminate the last batch of moving mechanical undead with his comrades, immediately turned his head after hearing the company commander's voice and saw Everrich walking towards him. His left arm was cut off from his elbow, and a wisp of smoke was still emitting the incision.
But this did not affect the firm expression of the company commander at all, as if the wound did not appear on him.
"Why are you here?"
"Our landing cabin encountered enemy firepower when landing, and slightly deviated from the track, but fortunately-"
“It’s really bad.”
Everridge frowned and interrupted him.
"You should be with the Amurad Commander at this time, not here."
"Company Commander, I don't understand."
Suo Shiyang realized something was wrong, and the doubts before entering the landing cabin emerged from the depths of his heart again. Many things were not normal from the beginning.
But Everridge obviously had no intention of explanation. He glanced around him and said loudly:
"Seventh Company! Gather!"
After cooking the undead in the tomb, the soldiers gathered over, a total of fifty-three people, including a priest, who were all the remaining living people in the 7th Company, most of whom were injured.
"We have to completely destroy this node and prevent the Necromancer from repairing it."
Everridge said, looking at a warrior with a red and white helmet, his adjutant.
"Is the hot melt bomb ready?"
"Yes, company commander."
At this time, the ominous metal friction sounded at the entrance to the south of the mausoleum, as if countless pairs of iron boots were trampling on the ground. Without looking at it, Soshiyang knew that the enemy's large army was coming. Obviously, their masters were unwilling to give up this important energy node.
The seventh company commander looked at the entrance, then turned to look to the left, facing Suoshi Yang Jianqiang's gaze.
He took a deep breath and continued:
"You are the last fifty-three people in the Seventh Company, carrying all the honors of the company on your shoulders. Maybe I have not fought for so long, but I have vowed to witness all this! The Seventh Company has fought to this day and will continue to fight before all this is over. A final battle to end the nightmare of the dead, a final battle to perform duties and defend the honor of the team!"
At this time, the black-armored priest also stood up and said loudly in a stern voice:
"So what are your plans? Will you join me in begging the souls of our fallen compatriots, begging them to help me and arouse our fighting spirit in the upcoming battle? All of you!"
For a moment, all Astart faced the priest, kneeling on one knee on the hard rock floor, and so did Soshyang.
Some people move slowly because of the wounds on their bodies, but none of them hesitate.
The priest stood before them, holding up the scepter in his hand and watching people follow him.
"In the name of the noblest Majesty, the Holy Emperor, we beg you."
"Long live my emperor!"
Everyone responded.
"We beg you for the honor of the Emperor and the unremitting dedication of his defenders."
"Long live my emperor!"
"Those who sacrifice their lives will exchange for the eternal torment of immortality for our existence. We beg you to recall your soul from the death of our brothers and bring it back to your side!"
"It's his name to die!"
The Angels of Death responded in a consistent manner.
At this time, the staggering mechanical nightmare also emerged from the darkness of the passage again. Cold green flames were burning in their empty eyes, and the torn guns in their hands were flat on their chests, like to toy soldiers who were neatly placed, walking towards the creatures gathered in the tombs with no exception.
"Prepare for the battle! You guys go and install hot melt bombs!"
The soldiers of the company began to take their place. Just as Soshiyang picked up the gun and was about to find his place, the company commander appeared in front of him and handed his sword and a helmet to Soshiyang.
"Take it, take your team, leave here, and go to the commander of the battle. If you go in that direction, you should be able to meet them."
His voice was not loud, but he had unquestionable authority.
"This is an order."
As if he knew what the next sentence of Soshiyang was, he added another sentence, then turned around and walked towards the priest.
"Company Commander--"
Soshyang reached out and called out, and Everridge paused, but did not turn around.
"I'll be back soon, no matter what."
After saying that, he put on his helmet, turned around and summoned the remaining five team members, and walked in the direction Everridge pointed before.
Everridge, who came to the priest, turned around and watched Soshyang's figure disappear into the shadow of the passage, and whispered:
"May the Emperor bless him."
"I hope the emperor will give us mercy on us."
The priest's words aroused the bitter smile on the corner of Everrich's mouth. He took off the bomb gun fixed on his thigh and came to the back of the bunker. At this time, the undead had already begun to shoot, and the surging dissociation rays hit the area where Astartes defended like raindrops.
boom----!
Accompanied by the huge roar that shook the entire mausoleum, the energy nodes that supplied a whole area were instantly interrupted, and darkness suddenly enveloped the surroundings.
"For the Emperor!!!"
With a roar, Everridge fired the first shot at the enemy.
Other Astartes also immediately released their anger, and the flames of the bomb gun suddenly became a little light in the darkness. The light emitted by the undead was like ghost fire in the tomb. The two were intertwined and were constantly accompanied by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
"Why?"
Hearing the gunshots behind him, Aksai looked back and then quickly walked to Soshiyang.
"You've asked four times."
"I do not understand."
"This is an order, you don't need to understand."
"Soshyang!"
Aksai grabbed the other party's arm, and the whole team immediately stopped.
"We are not cowards!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on him. Although Soshiyang did not wear a helmet, his expressionless face was no different from his helmet.
"No one says you're a coward."
"Then we should go to fight! Die with other brothers! Instead of...running!"
"I repeat again. This is not escape, this is the order, the company commander's order."
"Why? What mission does it take for us? We are not veterans, nor are we Terminators."
"Beware of your words, Aksey."
After glaring at the other party, Soshi Yang pulled his arm out of the other party's palm and continued to move forward.
"Authentic, we are not veterans, nor the Terminator, but we are still Astartes, the Emperor's warrior, an extension of His eternal will. I hope you can face your own value more."
Facing Soshi Yang's words, Aksai was speechless. He glanced at the others, but after they stopped for a while, they followed Soshi Yang's footsteps.
"Well, I hope this mission is worth it."
Shaking his head, Aksai followed quickly, and the gunshots behind him gradually became weaker with the distance...
