The Emperor’s Angel of Death

But speaking personally, at least Jacob was happy that he was not separated, and that the familiar environment reassured him.

Armin then convened the command of the company. In addition to him, the tenth company had 10 veterans, including a priest apprentice, who formed the command of the tenth company.

At times during the discussion, Armin stopped to examine a small locator he held in his right hand.

Jacob realized that the captain wasn't just looking for the trail, he was using his tools of logic to decide that trail was the most likely route for their target to get from here to their last known location.

After almost five minutes, the results were discussed, and the company commander motioned them to follow him to a trail of his choosing.

As they stepped into the shadow of the trees, a bird chirped somewhere in the distance.

Jacob didn't catch the meaning of its cry, but the sound made him uneasy and shuddered, briefly touched by a premonition of disaster.

Then he looked to the side and saw that Mies, who was also the son of Armageddon, obviously felt it, and his thin face was a little gloomy.

"The bird called very ominously,"

Jacob heard the whispers and looked away, he wasn't a superstitious man, but a feeling was a feeling.

The team marched in two columns, the captains' armor humming as they walked up the hill, servomotors and gravity stabilizers were trying to keep the veterans balanced on the steep hill, and the Space Marines' leg armor each Take a step up and you will dig up a large piece of soil.

Recruits rely entirely on their own physical strength, and Jacob is encouraged by the cold, clean air and the beautiful scenery around him, and his modified muscles don't feel any fatigue.

It has to be said that the environment of Nathan 4 is well protected, and the Chapter Master does not seem to want his hometown to be overly poisoned by industry.

To get himself out of these anachronistic thoughts, Jacob began to think about their mission.

Disappearances are a regular occurrence anywhere in the Empire, but the situation still needs to be investigated, he's not sure what the enemy is up to but he's learned to think about the enemy's every move for good reason.

Thinking of the mighty power of human enemies, Jacob understood that his Chapter did need to be vigilant, and any strange magic or technology could cause a lot of trouble.

A spy might be able to spot a weak point in the monastery fortress' defenses and prepare for a full-scale invasion.

He knew that this had happened before, and it could easily happen again.

In any case, the company most needs to find some survivors, if they are still alive, and provide any intelligence that can be learned.

If no one survives, they need to find their bodies and find out what killed them.

As a result, they walked all day and found nothing.

At night, Armin didn't plan to return, and they didn't set up camp very much. They needed to rest but also pay attention to whether they missed anything in the search in the dark.

They had come close to the last known location of the man they were looking for, and had found more traces of the missing pack: discarded food strips, areas where bushes had been cut down.

There was a solemn night in the forest, they didn't start a fire, sentries were placed in strategic locations around the camp, and all communications were connected to the direct encrypted channel. It would be extremely difficult for anyone to eavesdrop on their communications.

Sentinels in high places can quickly and quietly warn them when they see anything, and anyone trying to sneak up on them to pounce on them will immediately notice a reversal of form.

In fact, no one slept that night, all the recruits were very nervous, and they almost stayed in place with their weapons.

It is generally agreed that the enemy should attack at night, or at least harass once.

After all, this environment is too suitable, Jacob thought that this might be a strategy of the company commander, using this method to lure the opponent out - a night attack is better than a blind search.

But the results were surprising.

Nothing happened that night, except for the depression before the torrential rain—

"It's strange."

Jacob watched the sun rise over the mountains. It was the end of his watch time, and he wasn't tired at all, the beauty of the place itself took his breath away.

At first the mountains had only a slight shadow, their outlines were like a rough hole cut in the cloth at night, and when the day dawned they began to appear, but seemed to be flat, as if painted on a stone wall draw the same.

As the light increases, they become more concrete, full of depth, and detail, until they suddenly shimmer in the sunlight, as if reborn.

Mist rises like smoke from the trees below, like mountains animating clouds in the morning light, or maybe some sorcerer has used magic to make the forest emit flameless smoke--Jacob knew that wasn't the reason , and soon the fog will evaporate like a ghost in the sun.

But he still enjoyed watching the reborn world and hearing the birds sing to welcome the sun.

But the sun didn't last long, because the storm was coming soon, and the sky was already half occupied by dirty clouds.

In the distance, he could hear the complaints of his comrades and the sound of eating ration sticks. Everyone sat there all night, and in the second half of the night, he even began to pray that the attackers appeared.

Everyone was suffocated.

But the enemies just don't show up, either because they're very calm, or because they're not around at all.

Either way, the team still has to go.

They packed up their camp and marched down the hill again, toward a strange separation in the forest.

Not long after walking, everyone became alert - as they followed the trail, they saw what was going on below.

Because of the dark clouds, the forest looked darker and distorted, and the trees looked sick. Armin looked at these with a magnifying glass, and spoke.

"It wasn't originally like this here, and it wasn't written in the report."

"Looks like the trees are infected with the plague."

Jacob was also watching, the trees looked really sick, they stooped like sick people, they looked like they were rotting and dying, strange glowing fungi grew on their sides, and the faint light was like water even in the daytime It is still visible in the sunlight.

Jacob doesn't like this kind of stuff at all~www.readwn.com~ no matter how they got like this.

He looked around, the air smelled really wrong, the whole place was weird, and there was a faint but very disturbing smell in the air, like some kind of reptile, which made the back of his neck feel Hair stood up.

For some reason, he could always imagine himself walking in the grass and being peeped by a poisonous snake.

Armin obviously felt it, and he opened a channel to the monastery fortress and started reporting to someone.

Suddenly, a static sound came, and something was interfering with the communication signal.

Jacob thought for a moment that the diseases of the trees had an odd connection with signal interference, but he dismissed the idea as nonsense.

How is this possible?

In the back of his head, the knowledge the engine had put in told him that there were signs that something dangerous must be about to happen.
