Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

"You look like that." Yaoen looked at Chen Ye's poncho, which was still sewn, "just like the boxers I saw fighting in the bottom nest when I was a kid."

"A man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle, brother." Chen Ye shook his head helplessly.

A fully-armed Space Marine wearing armor was too eye-catching in the bottom hive, so Chen Yecai sewed a poncho himself.

If it hadn't been for the acid rain today, I wouldn't have worn a poncho and would have worn a black robe instead. I would have sewn it myself, and the craftsmanship would be as bad as this poncho.

The acid rain in the hive city is not only corrosive, Yaoen's bioprocessor even actively closes the respiratory tract.

But for a superhuman warrior who had undergone nineteen transformation surgeries, the toxicity of the acid rain from Beisu No. 1 could at most make Chen Ye feel numb on his fingertips.

"Let's go, I'll buy you a drink." Chen Ye raised his chin behind him.

Yao En followed silently.

The two of them walked through the alleyway to Xiachao.

When walking on the road, you can hear the quarrels coming from the shacks next to you, the whispers of bad deals, and even the sounds of gang fights.

All this gave Yaoen a sense of familiarity. This was the situation when Tai Lung's nest was under the nest.

At that time, Cato was particularly bad, with a bloody cockscomb head, bounty hunter, and intelligence dealer... The only place where you could see peace and friendliness was in the Genestealer colony.

There was another ordinary gunshot, but this time a hole appeared in the wall next to Yao En.

Chen Ye looked warily towards a dark alley on the left, where the bullet was fired.

Just when Chen Ye and Yao En thought they were just in a very common gang fight, a little girl whose mouth was transformed into a breathing filter ran out.

"Help me." A plain, cold electronic synthesized voice came from the respirator in the girl's mouth. This does not mean that she is not anxious or afraid, but the parts embedded in her face are too inferior, and the sound function may only be a breathing filter. included with the device.

Then two men armed with Agrippina automatic guns emerged from the alley. They were stunned when they saw the girl hiding behind Chen Ye, but then they pointed their guns at Chen Ye.

"Don't mind your own business."

"Go back to your black boxing ring and continue to fight."

Hearing the threats from the two men, Chen Ye turned back and looked at Yao En: "Do I really look like a boxer?"

Yao En spread his hands.

Chen Ye sighed helplessly and turned his head to look at the two gang members.

One of the most striking features of normal Hive City dwellers is that they all wear breathing filters, whether the filters are implants or something similar to masks.

Chen Ye looked at the face of the gang member on the left and took a step forward.

"you……"

Before he could finish another threatening sentence, the gang member was punched in the face by Chen Ye who suddenly rushed in front of him.

The filter and jaw bone were all shattered, metal fragments were mixed with bone fragments, and blood spurted out from his wounds onto the wall.

When another gang member was about to pull the trigger, he was hit hard in the face by Chen Ye like his companions.

There was no strength in this punch.

A round head is like a watermelon, and the rounded arm is like a baseball bat. When the two collide, there is a dull sound and then breaks into pieces.

Chen Ye walked up to the gang member who was not beaten to death by him, grabbed his head and dragged him to a place where his head could not be covered by the roof of the shed, so that he was directly exposed to the acid rain.

As the sizzling sound continued, many dark spots appeared on the faces of the gang members, which were corroded by acid rain.

"Tell everyone you meet not to learn from you." Chen Ye grabbed the gang members and pushed them against the wall. He punched a hole in the iron wall in front of him, then broke off the largest piece and used it. Fixed gang members.

After doing all this, Chen Ye turned around and looked at the girl.

The girl was shivering next to the trash can.

As a descendant, she has definitely seen more terrifying scenes than before, but she has never seen someone with such terrifying fighting ability as Chen Ye.

"If you still have family, then take your family with you to District 100." Chen Ye took out a gold coin and put it into the girl's hand, then gently held the girl's little fist holding the gold coin and told her, " Hold on tight to your life and don't let go until you see food or weapons."

The girl nodded and ran away in three steps.

Chen Ye turned around and glanced at Yao En: "Are you in a hurry to drink?"

"Alcohol means nothing to me." Yao En knocked on his alloy head.

Chen Ye nodded, picked up the two automatic guns stained with blood on the ground and continued moving forward.

During the next journey, whenever he heard screams and calls for help, Chen Ye would immediately rush to the place where the sound came from and shoot at the gang members or assailants.

When the magazine of the automatic gun was empty, Chen Ye picked up the deceased's weapon and continued fighting.

Even though he was not wearing armor or a helmet that could assist aiming, Chen Ye still made perfect shots. The enemies he faced most of the time during the century-long battle were more agile and threatening than the gang members. .

Until the entire neighborhood fell into silence, and those gang members and those who wanted to do evil to others huddled in the corners and did not dare to come out.

In the end, Chen Ye threw away his weapon and continued walking to the bar with Yao En.

"Ten minutes after we left this neighborhood, another innocent person would be killed," Yaoen said.

"As you said, I feel that what I do does not have much effect." Chen Ye nodded very calmly, "But even if I can save one person, one person will survive. I did what I could. , what I can do within the scope of my ability.”

Yao En nodded.

Chen Ye continued.

"I feel like I'm going crazy after a week here."

"I don't know why, but the disasters suffered by everyone here feel the same as if they happened to me. I hate every kind of evil. I can't wait to put on my armor and take a bolt gun to kill the evildoers in the entire hive. Slaughter them all.”

"That girl just now reminded me of myself when I was a child. If there could have been a space warrior descending from the sky at that time to kill the villains who harmed my parents, I wouldn't have been so weak from living on the streets since I was a child that I almost wouldn't have been able to finish the job alive. Reconstructive surgery.”

Listening to Chen Ye's complaints, Yaoen felt that he was a person with strong empathy.

This is also reflected in Agrippina. Ordinary Space Marines don't care about the life and death of mortals... The entire chapter of the Lamenters cares about mortals. This is even if they are brothers and heirs of Sanguinius. Nor is it generally available.

"I heard that you were once a bottom nester, and the environment in the bottom nest was worse than that in the lower nest..." Chen Ye suddenly stopped and looked at Yaoen, "But I feel like you don't seem to sympathize with these people..."

Yao En admitted frankly: "Yes."

When Chen Ye thought that Yaoen just had a cold personality and was not going to discuss it further, Yaoen suddenly said two words that shocked him.

"I don't sympathize with the suffering of anyone other than the Soulless, who seem to me just like almost all underhives and underhives."

"Because the ordinary person who was bullied today might have been the person who beat me up just because he didn't like me yesterday, or the person who secretly climbed into the window of my house and wanted to strangle my daughter to death while I was away."

The lives of the people in the Lower Nest and the Bottom Nest are very difficult. Chen Ye, who was born in Beisu No. 1, knows this even if he has been an Emperor's Angel for a hundred years, but obviously the soulless people in the hive city have an even harder life...

Chen Ye inserted himself into the miserable life of the soulless man, and suddenly wanted to comfort Yaoen.

But Yaoen didn't care about the past at all, and he continued to move forward without saying a word.
