From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man

“Roar!”

In the blink of an eye, the fanatical nun swelled up into a huge tumor. Her distorted face could no longer maintain her previous calm, and she howled in pain.

Step, step!

At this time, the four advance team members in the dark and ten agents of the Inquisition who were responsible for security immediately stepped forward and pointed their guns at the nun with a tumor.

The advance team members are equipped with nano combat suits, so they don’t have to worry too much about whether the sarcoma will suddenly burst or explode, releasing the "corruption virus" from heaven.

The agents of the Inquisition also have individual equipment similar to a simplified version of the MacP power armor, which can also ensure their safety.

In addition, the advance team members and agents formed a "human wall" to isolate the nun with sarcoma and the people who were evacuating outside the church.

As for the Biological Department deployed at the "13" front-line base, they anticipated in advance that the Church and Heaven might use "biochemical viruses" similar to the Black Holy Grail, so when the advance team and the agents of the Judgment Department took action, several technicians wearing special chemical protective suits also stepped forward.

Kronto, who was in the crowd, finally calmed down when he saw the Empire's quick response.

As he ran out of the church holding his sister Carrie's hand, he turned his head and looked back curiously.

The technicians were not holding guns, but using various instruments to extract living tissue samples from the nun with sarcoma and try to curb the trend of the sarcoma's continued expansion.

When he followed the crowd, left the church with his sister, and arrived at the main entrance square, Kronto had completely lost sight of the church.

And Krontor turned back -

!!!

Boom, boom!

They saw two company guards holding giant shields and plasma rifles, walking past them with heavy steps and "blocking" the main entrance of the church.

And after confirming that all the people in the church had been evacuated, the two company guards lowered their heads and entered the church.

From Krontor's perspective, he could only see the backs of the company guards, but could not see the nun who was swollen like a living tumor.

"Everyone, please pay attention!"

At this moment, the technicians who also belonged to the Biology Department used the radio to remind:

"Because the Imperial Church has suffered a biological attack from the Church, the Imperial Biological Department will be implementing blockade and quarantine measures here.

Please don't panic, everyone present. Even if the Church and Heaven go crazy and want to retaliate against the Empire and all of you, the Empire will do its best to ensure your safety.

Please keep order and follow the Empire's arrangements."

?

After hearing the warning on the radio, Kronto looked around and found that more than a dozen white tents with red and white "Λ" logos had been set up in the huge church square, and fences with hard light beams had been set up at the edge.

More than a hundred Dark Angel auxiliary soldiers armed with hard-light guns, as well as several tall Greek deities wearing heavy armor, appeared in the church square at some point.

At the same time, the auxiliary army and the Greek demi-gods took over the responsibility of maintaining order on the scene, and were cooperating with numerous technicians and synthetic humans from the biological department to lead local residents like them to the white tents that had been set up.

After the "door-to-door registration" and "blood information collection" at the beginning of the month, Krontor immediately realized that the Empire was going to screen and test them one by one to ensure whether they were affected by the "sarcoma".

Even the fanatical believers who had previously left the church were directly captured, tied up and "sealed" by the auxiliary troops and escorted to a Pelican.

Of course, Krontor had no way of knowing that those captured were fanatical believers intent on wreaking havoc on border towns.

But Krontor also understood that the empire would not "commit violence" without reason.

Presumably, the sudden incident in the church was closely related to the group of guys who were captured.

"Brother, what happened? Why is everyone so flustered?"

Carrie, who was very young both physically and mentally, could not understand the current situation, so she could only hug Krontor's right arm with both hands, fearing that she would be separated from her brother.

"Let's just follow the crowd, it'll be fine."

Kronto freed his left hand and patted Carrie on the top of her head.

"All right."

Carrie nodded slightly.

Next, the brother and sister followed the instructions of the auxiliary army and came to the tent on the east side.

The synthetic man holding a professional scanning device, with a kind expression on his face, was about to calm the siblings and prepare for a preliminary examination.

Ta-ta! Ta-ta!!

Ri~咻——! !

Suddenly, a fierce gunfight broke out at the church.

The crisp sound of hard-light guns and the release of stored energy from plasma rifles instantly resounded in the center of the town.

The synth quickly put the scanner aside, stepped forward quickly, protected Kronto and Carrie, and immediately hid in the tent used for inspection and isolation.

Look inside the church again;

The fanatical nun who was willing to sacrifice herself had grown into a tumor with a diameter of seven meters.

As for why the advance team, Inquisition agents, and company guards here opened fire, it was because the technicians had also completed work such as sample extraction.

Secondly, the agents of the Ministry of Inquisition who had fought against the fallen Greek gods and participated in the New Mombasa Incident judged based on their experience that the fanatical nun in front of them might be "summoning" creatures from the heavenly plane through some kind of sacrificial ritual.

Moreover, there was no need for reminders from the agents of the Ministry of Inquisition. The veteran advance team and the company guards who had been through hell were ready for the "heavenly creatures" to arrive at any time.

Finally, when the fanatical nun expanded to a diameter of ten meters, she could no longer bear it and collapsed from the inside out.

The smelly liquid splashed all over the church and also onto the armor of the advance team, special attack team and company guards.

Pieces of minced meat were scattered everywhere.

However, in the center of the tumorous remains, there was a "knight" of equal size squatting.

Even though it was in a half-squatting position, the two company guards could still tell at a glance that its height was at least five meters.

They are even slightly taller than their original leader, Leon, and are extremely strong. Their bright red armor is even more sophisticated, giving them the look of a work of art.

But the knight in front of everyone was missing the "head".

Without waiting for the knight to rise, two company guards pulled the trigger, shooting high-temperature plasma at its massive body.

The advance team and the agents of the Judgment Department also pulled the trigger and used hard-light firearms to suppress them.

Buzz~——Bang~——!

However, the plasma cannon balls and hard light beams were offset and bounced off by a faint protective force field, making it impossible for everyone to actually attack the headless knight.

The Headless Knight stood up slowly, and with his absolute height, "overlooking" the people who were attacking him.

See this.

The two company guards immediately put aside their plasma rifles, drew out the power swords and chainswords hanging from their waists, took the initiative to step forward, and shouted in a metallic tone;

"Everyone, evacuate this place! This is not a piece of shit you can handle!"

"Notify Athena and ask her to come to our aid!"

As they spoke, the two guards arrived at the two sides of the headless knight, one on the left and one on the right, and swung their power swords and chainswords at the speed of creating afterimages and even sonic booms, slashing at his thighs.

Bang-!

boom--!

However, the headless knight swung the giant sword in his right hand at a faster speed and with greater force, seemingly casually, and "chopped" the two guards away.

It is the physical sense of chopping and flying.

The power sword filled with plasma force field and the chainsword with high-speed rotating chains were separated from their owners' hands one after another when they were swung by the giant sword.

The two company guards also lost their balance, "flew" backwards uncontrollably, and smashed through the walls on both sides of the church.

!!!

Seeing that the battle situation was one-sided.

The advance team and the agents of the Ministry of Inquisition naturally chose a tactical retreat and quickly left the church.

When they arrived at the square at the main entrance, the advance team and the agents of the Judgment Department had already uploaded what they saw to the "13" front-line base.

Without much operation, once the communications officer at the front-line base receives the individual camera footage and realizes that even two company guards cannot defeat the headless knight, he will naturally report to Colonel John "Soap" McTavish, who is in charge of the "One Three" universe, and Captain Galan Clovis.

In order to lure the church to take the initiative and go to the Middle East to hunt down the remaining demons and traitors, Athena will rush to this border town as soon as she is notified.

Now, what they need to do is to delay the headless knight and do their best to ensure the safety of civilians.

Towns can be rebuilt after being destroyed, but people cannot be reborn after they die.

Unless the Emperor himself descends to the "One Three" universe and consumes divine power (psychic energy) to resurrect the dead people.

As an agent of the Inquisition, after learning that the "One Three" Hell had planted the Pure Flower, he immediately concluded that the "One Three" Hell would eventually become the property of the Emperor.

Then, after death, the soul of a human being in the "One-Three" universe will go directly to heaven or hell.

As people under the rule of the Human Empire, they will definitely be rejected by Heaven and imprisoned in the first layer of Hell, the Soul Layer, for the crime of "believing in other religions".

Therefore, in theory, the Emperor is absolutely capable of resurrecting the souls of the dead who have gone to the "One Three" Hell.

But if the emperor really needs to come and clean up their "mess", it will prove the failure of multiple departments.

Moreover, they only believed in theory that the Emperor had the ability to resurrect humans who died in the "One Three" universe and went to the "One Three" hell.

They anticipated the church's crazy revenge and were secretly watching the fanatics' every move.

At the same time, more than one hundred Greek minor gods were deployed in this frontier town in order to eliminate any threats in the first place.

Not only that, their plan to lure the Church into revenge was approved by Captain Galan Clovis and even the Primarch of the Dark Angels, Lion.

If the church becomes too "crazy", Leon will personally lead the main force of the Dark Angels to provide support.

At this stage, the "Glory Guard" directly under the Principal has been deployed at the "One Three" front-line base.

But the strength displayed by the headless knight in front of him was comparable to that of Satan, the lord of hell.

The church's first round of retaliation allowed "supernatural creatures" like the Headless Horseman to wreak havoc in border towns, which was really beyond their expectations.

But a hundred Greek demi-gods, along with two company guards and the Dark Angels stationed in the town, should be able to contend with the Dullahan.

At all costs, they must ensure the safety of local people.

The church square at this moment;

The residents immediately became panicked when they saw a headless knight who was five and a half meters tall crashing down the main entrance of the church and appearing in their field of vision.

The auxiliary troops continued to perform evacuation duties and protect the residents as they evacuated the area.

The seven Greek minor gods present approached the headless knight with shields and spears in hand.

At this time, the two guards who were slashed out of the church by a sword also shook their heads in a daze.

Then they quickly picked up their weapons, stood up and rushed behind the headless knight, continuing their fearless attack.

"die!"

"Chubby!"

And perhaps out of anger, they both made metallic roars.

Seeing the two company guards launching an attack, the seven Greek demi-gods also maintained their formation and began to strangle them.

While using the battle shield to compress the Dullahan's movement space, he also swung the "mass-produced" spear made by the Emperor himself.

Boom, boom——!

Clang~——clang——!!!

In an instant, a group of giants started fighting in the square.

Moreover, ordinary humans cannot observe the movements of these giants with their naked eyes and can only hear the sound of metal colliding.

"Brother! Brother! That guy seems to be staring at us!"

Carrie, who was being dragged away by Kronto's hand, seemed to have sensed something and immediately alerted her brother and everyone around her.

?

Hear the words.

Krontor and some of the residents turned their heads to look.

Although they couldn't see the movements of the giants, they could still observe the appearance of the Dullahan, who was huge and had obvious targets.

Since there is no head, where does the sight come from?

Immediately, the residents continued to focus on following the auxiliary troops to escape from the area.

boom--!

But there was a sudden shock.

call--!

Coupled with the looming air wave impact, all the residents lost their balance and fell to the ground one after another, including the auxiliary troops with power armor, as well as the advance team and the Inquisition agents who were also responsible for evacuating the people.

Boom, boom——!

When Kronto, Carrie and the others tried to struggle to get up, they saw the headless knight walking towards them.

As for the two company guards who were responsible for delaying the Headless Horseman and the seven Greek demi-gods, they all fell to the ground seriously injured.

"Brother! I said it seemed like it was staring at us!" Carrie said quickly.

"." Kronto didn't have the time to engage in a verbal dispute with his sister.

He climbed up, picked up Carrie with all his strength, and wanted to escape from the headless knight.

Boom——boom——!!!

However, when he was in despair, a five-meter-tall "giant" appeared on the square.
