Chapter 143 Thorne Tells a Story

They move closely under the shadows. The senses of these infected people are generally extremely damaged organically. After all, you can't ask a human body whose eyeballs have been poked out to still be able to see things.

So as long as it is not upright to appear in front of the infected person, there is still a high chance of not being discovered.

Of course, this rule only applies to the small number of infected people you face, and the affixes of these infected people are often decayed.

Fortunately, the infected affixes in Phoenix City are basically rotten, and there are no extra fresh infected.This is also caused by environmental factors, because except for the dead, no new living people have been infected in the city.

Li Jianghao somewhat resisted the way of moving at this time, but he had to choose this way because of its convenience.

He was carried on Thorne's shoulders like a tool, just like a child sitting on his father's shoulders when he was a child.It's just that Thorne doesn't want to be anyone's father, and Li Jianghao's body only takes up half of his shoulders.

In terms of physical fitness, the undead team in the kitchen is much stronger than Li Jianghao's current human body.

Having climbed up the central water tower before, they only took a short rest and quickly recovered their energy, just like the green bar in the Black Soul game can recover after being quickly consumed.

Li Jianghao, who was completely an ordinary person, could not recover completely in such a short period of time. This was soon reflected. His body began to show signs of fatigue and difficulty in breathing.

Thorne can only carry Li Jianghao up and move forward, so that the latter can have more rest time.

As thunder fighters, their body muscles can be controlled to the extreme, and when they walk around, they won't let that part of the muscles shake, and they won't shake the people on their shoulders.

Of course, Thorne learned this from an old company commander on the battlefield. In that battle, facing the enemy's superior firepower, the old company commander who emptied his magazine carried four newly-supported mortal auxiliary troops. The machine gun squad turned into a humanoid cannon machine gun turret and began to charge and kill the enemies.

He even had the energy to free up one hand to flip up the door of an unknown tank and use it as a butcher's knife and a shield to charge indiscriminately.

After that war, the structure of the machine gun team on the shoulders of the legendary company commander remained intact, but the four mortal auxiliary troops were greatly stimulated and transferred from the front line machine gun team to the logistics.

And being transferred by that company Changzheng as an exclusive auxiliary attendant, there is a possibility of being resisted on his shoulders at any time.After that, these mortals couldn't bear such a weird way of fighting, and the company commander's exclusive attendants changed from team to team.

According to the company commander's undisclosed internal interview, the role of the Mortal Auxiliary Army was much greater than that of the auxiliary combat teams of the Mechanicum newly recruited by the Emperor on Mars.At least when a mortal's body tissue is used as a tool, it won't be like a mechanical servant, with only half of the parts left fixed on the body after the battle.

Soon after, for whatever reason, the company commander was secretly executed.

It is said that some chaotic and ugly idea invaded his brain, making him more and more regard human beings as various tools in life, not just teammates in battle.

Of course, a certain Mechanical Archbishop would never admit that this was related to the company commander's offense against the Mechanicus, and that he "found" the company commander's evidence of guilt after rummaging for a long time.

Due to the Emperor's own attitude towards the Thunder Warriors, and the later stage of the Terra unification war, the Emperor began to have an ambiguous relationship with the Martian Mechanicus. This execution did not attract anyone's attention.

After all, there are too many heretics being executed every day, and no one has the time to check every one of them.

Thorne seemed to be telling another trifle, telling a story that was enough to be approached by the trial court.

Cajaro silently made small notes in his heart, very curious about Thorne's world.

It's really interesting that they still need some low-level monkeys as auxiliary troops when the quality of individual soldiers is so strong.

As for Arnold and the others, they took this story purely as gossip, a legend about Jack the Ripper when London was still there, or a heroic veteran who returned from fighting in the colonies.

He didn't realize that what Thorne said was true.

Li Jianghao, who was lying peacefully on his stomach, had nothing to say about this story. He just became increasingly unclear about whether the products of the Warhammer world he came into contact with were a timeline.

Li Jianghao decided to ask tentatively:
"Terra should have been unified, have you ever heard of the word Primarch? Also, you said that you are the Thunder Warrior of the No.17 battle group. How many battle groups do the Thunder Warriors still retain? ?”

Thorne said expressionlessly: "If you are referring to something that the Emperor has done, I don't know about it. It is said that those things cannot be discussed without permission, and I am not very clear about it."

Li Jianghao secretly slandered that he actually called the Primarch those things directly. It seems that the timeline is still early, and even the Astartes space warriors derived from the Primarch's gene seeds should not have been formally seconded.

Thorne continued: "As for the formation of the Thunder Warriors, half of the war group has been destroyed. When I came here, the remaining brothers and compatriots were heading to the venue of the final battle. We must completely clean up the remnants of the warlords on the moon. Make sure the earth-moon passage is clean, and then return to the ground to eliminate the last enemy who is still resisting."

Li Jianghao calculated the timeline silently. He could only judge that Thorne's current time should be before the start of the Great Crusade, which is the so-called handover timeline of No.20 and No.30 millennia.

The worldview of the Warhammer world that I came into contact with in New London was in the 30th millennium, before the Horus Heresy had occurred.

The subsequent Horus rebellion has nothing to do with Thorne. In the current timeline, it is estimated that those Thunder fighters who are about to destroy the last enemy will all honorably "sacrifice" in the near future.

Then the Emperor would pull out his new toy, twenty Legions of Space Marines.Begins Dad Finds Son (crossed out)/Great Crusade.

Li Jianghao listened to Thorne telling stories all the way, and arrived at the relay station before nightfall.

Kagaro led everyone to jump directly over the wall of the relay station, while Thorne climbed over directly. Seeing Kagaro jumping, his belief that this alien must be shot became a little firmer.

The Thunder Warriors are actually a little aware of their identity as the Emperor's tools. They understand that the Emperor loves the entire human race, ordinary people.

Because of this, if the emperor still needs them after unifying Terra, they are also willing to go to the interstellar to exterminate the aliens.Even if the genetic defect is exposed, it has nothing to do with the Terra world they conquered.

Of course, they might not have thought that the history of Thunder Warriors would end with the unification of Terra.

On the stage after that, the Thunder Warriors did not have an invitation to enter a new era.
