Human Light Umbrella

"According to our understanding, the Astartes are the most valiant and combative elite among human beings, far surpassing our Sangheili in terms of speed, reaction and strength, as well as the shameless Kirahani (Ghost Beast).

In particular, there are still ten primarchs among humans, and a man who claims to be the chairman of the board...

The Prophet is ridiculously ignorant. Until now, he has not figured out what kind of race they have provoked. "

The voice just fell.

The battle on the scene has entered a "white heat".

More than [-] shadows rushed to the forefront, and together with tens of thousands of lightly armed elites, they dealt with the regular troops of the Covenant Empire.

Needless to say, the result was a one-sided crush.

Although the shadows come from the Raven Guard who are best at sneaking and infiltrating, their weapons and equipment do not belong to the ranks of "lightly equipped".

In addition to power claws, parallel bolt guns and jet packs, the most commonly used weapons of these shadows, there are also 1.0cal bolt machine guns that can be mounted on the arm armor, plasma cannons, melta cannons and flamethrowers.

There are more than a dozen shadow jetpacks, replaced by small missiles and grenade launchers.

I saw a shadow equipped with two grenade launchers standing still, then the mechanical arm moved the launcher on the left and put it on the shoulder armor, and aligned the 10 grenade launch ports in 4 rows and 50 columns at the covenant at the end of the street. force.

"Tong~tong~!"

With a clear sound, fifteen "Viper" grenades rushed out one by one, and landed on the obliquely above the covenant troops to actively detonate.

"Bang~! Bang~!"

There was no violent explosion as imagined, but a low-intensity burst, evenly spreading dark green "water mist", covering the entire area at the end of the street.

Then...

"Hey~! Hey~!" The sound of strong acid corroding everything came out.

"Ah! Ah...uh..." There was also a scream of pain from the strong acid eroding into the bones.

The Covenant Empire troops shrouded in "water mist" are "melting" at an extremely fast speed, the flesh and armor "stick" together, and then "melt" into the collapsed metal ground, turning into a cloudy dark green "Sauce mud".

Struggling and screaming in vain.

Beetle-type tanks can't escape the strong acid corrosion, only the well-armored Brutes escape the hellish streets in panic before the energy shield is about to expire.

However, the 1.0cal caliber bolt bombs pouring in and the meteor-like plasma cannonballs made the Brutes only remember the luck of escaping from the strong acid corrosion area before dying.

The so-called "Viper" type grenade, which contains a high concentration of xenoorph blood inside, is specially used to deal with enemies who dare to gather in piles.

The elites in the rear, using the weapons they picked up, even though they couldn't communicate with the shadows normally, knew that this group of Astartes, who were beyond mortals, came to help them avoid the fate of being slaughtered.

So while the shadows were in charge of outputting firepower and resisting the attacks of the covenant forces, the elites used their best speed advantage to carry out guerrilla attacks and harassment, and the two sides reached a not-so-tacit cooperation.

"Ow! Ow! Go to hell, shameless beast!!"

Among them, Artes held a gravity hammer that he picked up from nowhere, rushed to the front regardless of his own safety, and even picked out the team commanded by the ghost beast.

This should be regarded as an alternative "guerrilla".

Vadami didn't have time to worry about his old friends, but organized the elites present to cooperate with the shadow as much as possible, and tried to contact the troops and fleet of the elites.

At this time, the city of fraternity has fallen into chaos due to the purge action taken by the three priests.

Taking advantage of the authority granted by the priests, and claiming that the elites are heretics and traitors, the Brutes forcibly seized the command position and began to take over the troops.

Faced with unfounded charges, many hot-tempered elites naturally would not willingly give their lives to the ghost-faced beasts, but led the grunts and gnolls who were still willing to follow them to fight.

But the covenant is a religious empire after all, with the advance planning and deployment of the three priests, and now they are charged with "traitor" and "heretic"...

No matter how brave the elites are, how influential and deterrent they are, the fact that they are excluded from the Covenant Empire cannot be avoided, and they belong to the real rebels in righteousness.

Outside the City of Fraternity, the United Fleet in charge of escorting also fell into a fierce battle.

The fleet commanded by the elites was under fire suppressed by several times their own, and the incident suddenly caused heavy losses to their side.

After all, "sea warfare" is not like ground warfare.

What's more, the elites are surrounded by groups, unable to play their best guerrilla strategy at all, and occupy an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers and ship specifications, causing them to retreat steadily.

In the end, in order to retain their only naval power, a small number of elite ships, relying on the opportunity of their compatriots' desperate cover to open the jump entrance, entered the fault space and escaped successfully.

Even the colonial galaxies within the sphere of influence of the entire covenant empire, the fleets and troops on the edge of the territory, began to gradually stage a "clearing" link.

It has to be said that the priests used the political chips provided by the war to help the ghost-faced beasts who had long-standing grievances and were equally powerful in battle, and a series of "small" operations, all of which were the means that politicians should have.

only…

At the same time, the middle-level area of ​​the city of fraternity.

This is like a ship corridor that has been enlarged several times. There are three or five ghost-faced beasts patrolling to ensure that there will be no mistakes in this area.

Like the troops responsible for slaughtering the elite, the Brutes on patrol are dressed in novel armor, armed with sophisticated live ammunition and energy weapons, and are not what they used to be in every way.

At this time.

A group of ghost-faced beasts on patrol suddenly turned into "wooden figures" and kept walking forward, but remained motionless in place.

?

Aware of this strangeness, it immediately attracted the attention of the other two patrol groups, and two ghost-faced beasts ran to the side of the same kind to check.

"!"

I saw the grim expressions of the stagnant ones, as if they were fighting some kind of "thing", or a more appropriate "thought", trying to regain control of their bodies.

? ?

Seeing such a scene, the two free-moving ghost-faced beasts were a little puzzled, but then they saw the "minds" of the same kind.

It is the head brain tissue in the clear sense.

With a few "cracks! Cracks!", the heads of the same kind exploded quickly, blood and milky white tofu-like tissue splashed outward, splashing onto the faces of the two ghost-faced beasts.

!!!

Seeing the corpse without a head limp on the ground, the two ghost-faced beasts looked around in horror, and yelled "Roar! Roar!" at the top of their lungs, making the entire patrol team heighten their vigilance.

"Crack! Crack!"

But a series of head explosions killed all the three patrol teams in charge of this corridor. Even the murderer was unknown, and fell into endless darkness.

"Tick! Tick!"

The alarm sounded suddenly, and more and more patrol teams rushed to the corridor.

But no matter how many ghost-faced beasts came, none of them died unexpectedly.

"Boom! Boom!"

The sound of the skull cracking was also mixed with low-intensity explosions.

It turned out that it was the ghost-faced beast whose head was preserved. It escaped the strange attack, but it did not escape the attack of the small-caliber penetrating bolt bomb.

The splitting of the body and head made the ghost-faced beasts fall down in a row like huge dominoes.

A group of invisible "ghosts" maintained a very high efficiency of destroying enemies, passed through the corridors and tunnels unimpeded, and went straight to a large room similar to the main control room.

After dealing with the ghost-faced beasts staying here, a bluish-blue light flashed, and the six "ghosts" took the initiative to appear.

They wore hostile environment adaptation suits (HES) that had been upgraded many times, and held small-caliber sniper-type bolt guns, and a special suppressor with a length of [-] centimeters was installed at the muzzle.

And the team leader is Nova with the iconic blond ponytail.

At this time, she glanced at the open gate behind her out of the corner of her eye, released her psychic energy and said, "Captain Linmeer, the subsequent operations will be left to you."

talking.

Moore, who was supposed to be secretly executed by the ghostly beast, and more than 30 of its subordinates walked into the main control room with an unconcealable shock on their faces.

This group of elites couldn't believe that the seemingly thin Nova and the others could burst out with such a powerful strength, especially the spiritual power that the elites could not figure out.

Not long ago.

As soon as the priests launched the purge operation, Nova and five ghost agents, who were in the dark, rescued Moore and them.

Let Moore act as the "heart" of the city of fraternity all the way to the thought——

Control room.

In fact, after Harvest Star resumed communication and the company knew that the Retribution had captured two enemy ships, Nova followed Sui Bian's order and rushed to Harvest Star on her flagship Griffin.

after that.

She and 23 ghost agents, as well as more than 300 shadows led by Corax himself, sneaked into the cruiser where Moore was.

After fifteen hours of leaping and sailing, they arrived at the sanctuary of the covenant empire, easily avoided the search of the guards of glory, and successfully entered the city of fraternity.

After that.

Before Nova and Corax's secret instigation, the priests "preempted" the purge.

However, this was convenient for them, so the ghosts and shadows that had already been scattered everywhere also took advantage of the chaos to carry out various actions.

So the three priests are indeed very qualified politicians, but they miscalculated how capable the ghost agents and honor guards under Umbrella's command, especially a Primarch.

Chapter 268 "Expedition", Nothingness and Hunger

"It's about time."

While speaking, Sui Bian waved his hand to dissipate all kinds of information imaged by the center console, turned around and walked towards the giant porthole at the front of the bridge, and ordered to the Red Queen:

"Inform Robert they are going to hold a brief meeting."

"Yes." The Red Queen agreed.

Afterwards, Sui Bian stopped and turned to face the entire bridge, with his back to the porthole with excellent scenery.

The red queen was standing on his left hand side, and the white queen standing on his right hand side was holding a long straight sword with a scabbard and a hilt large enough for both hands to hold together.

The main color of the scabbard and hilt is still the black that best shows Umbrella's style. If you look closely, you can see that it has a delicate gold thread pattern.

The end of the hilt is also inlaid with a transparent gem that reflects light red under the light.

Waited a moment.

A large number of blue "light spots" surrounded by the wind emerged from the bridge, gathering together, making Robert, John, Russ, Sanguinius, and Angron wearing the power armor of the Primarch appear in front of Sui Bian in turn. forward.

"Father." Robert, the eldest son, spoke first on behalf of the brothers, "Did there be any news from Corax and Nova?"

"Yes."

Sui Bian raised his right hand, took the long straight sword from Queen Bai, and then changed to hold the hilt with his left hand, and said to his five heirs:

"As planned, the Covenant Empire fell into uncontrollable civil strife, and now it lacks a command hierarchy. This is when they are at their weakest. Remember how I taught you?"

As if recalling the past, the five primarchs smiled at each other, and then replied in unison: "While it is sick, kill it!"

"Hahaha! Yes!"

Sui Bian, who received a satisfactory answer, also laughed heartily, which is extremely rare. Immediately afterwards, he held the hilt of the sword with his right hand, made a gesture of drawing the sword, and exhorted with a little excitement:

"Children! I don't need to say too much, but there is one thing I need to say, and that is to beat the Covenant Empire to the point where it has no power to fight back!"

"Father, rest assured!"

At this time.

"Clang!" With a metallic cry, Sui Bian drew his sword with his right hand, allowing the sharp blade of the cold light to rush out of the scabbard

"Hoo~!"

The moment the sharp blade was released, the restlessness of the burning fire spread throughout the entire bridge, and a golden flame was seen, filling and enveloping the blade of the long straight sword.

Facing the raging fire, Sui Bian raised his sharp sword and shouted loudly: "Let's go!"

"Yes! Father!"

The Primarchs also responded excitedly, and actively dissipated their holograms.

see.

Sui Bian waved his right hand, extinguished the blazing fire, and put the sword back into the scabbard accurately.

This long straight sword called the Sword of Regent is the one that Sui Bian favored most among his many collections.

When Hephaestus forged the sword, he absorbed immeasurable spiritual power from him. If anyone other than him and the ten Primarch's sons tried to draw the sword out of the scabbard, the best result would be Soul flies shattered.

Withdraw the blade.
