Chapter 56 The Demon Ship (2)


Chapter 56 Demon Ship (2)

“Strange.”

Soshiyang took a step forward, and he felt that he could smell a faint smell of rust, even though his armor was completely sealed.

The team was divided into two parts at this time, three in a team, walking

from the left and right sides to the command platform, with Soshyan at the back and going straight to the command center.

"More servitors,"

Armin told Soshyan of his discovery over the communication channel.

“You are right, sir, there is no trace of other crew members”

“It’s the same here.”

Rogris’ voice then sounded on the channel .

"But these words on the bulkhead - they are not in Gothic, nor in the language of the Adeptus Mechanicus, I don't recognize it."

"Don't pay attention to those words, We are on a traitor's ship, and there can be corruption in everything."

Soshyan said calmly, finding an answer to one question at the command podium, but bringing with him more. question.

He found a soldier.

It was obvious that this was not a soldier of the Word Bearers Legion, as the dark purple paint that had not faded and the dim eagle mark on the chest confirmed this.

However, most of this armor has been changed beyond recognition, and most of the signs that can identify the identity or belonging have been damaged. It can only be seen that the overall style

The style is still Baroque, and there are still some inscriptions on the armor. The symbols and signs were unfamiliar to him.

The only thing that is certain is that this soldier was slaughtered, cut into pieces, and reassembled in the crudest way possible.

This was a blatant blasphemy against the Astartes, and this approach made Soshyan realize that this was probably a "sacrifice", offered by those cheap and cruel Chaos Space Marines to their evil gods. Sacrifice.

"If you can make a bold inference."

The technical sergeant came to Soshiyang, looked at the broken power armor, and whispered.

“Time and space in subspace are changeable at any time. Is it possible... The ship of the Seventeenth Legion was participating in a certain battle, and because of a certain

What kind of reason and arrangement does it appear here now? But it just freezes a certain moment of the war, and does not exist physically. Maybe it once existed in the physical space, but was eliminated. Is it a real 'ghost'?"

“The ghost of the battleship?”

If so, would that explain the fact that no wreckage of any crew or more wreckage of Space Marines could be seen on the ship, and that the 'sacrifice' on the ground was part of the ship's 'memory', so it could be preserved?

But why did such a real ghost ship go straight to the Spark?

“Damn!”

A scream passed through the communication earphones and reached Soshyan’s ears.

He immediately turned around and saw a huge creature pressing on a soldier. It had many holes in its body, but it still carved bite marks on the shoulder armor of the soldier who kept screaming. .

The creature roared and the entire ship seemed to shake as the other soldiers attacked it.

"Fire! Fire!"

The shouts filled the entire communication channel again, and the muzzle flash lit up the bridge.

In a series of muzzle flashes, Soshyan saw more monsters.

They climbed out of the bulkhead and ran, with pink flames, as if they were being pulled in from outside the ship, chirping and cheering.

Without saying a word, Soshiyang took two big steps down on the command platform. He held the Holy Flame Sword high in his hand and destroyed nearly a square meter of the deck the moment it fell, including a dozen of these chaotic creatures in front of him.

"Gather! Everyone!"

At Soshyan's order, the soldiers quickly gathered and took a defensive posture, methodically using bolters to repel the invaders.

The entire bridge was ablaze with bolter fire. But on the other side of the platform, the downed soldier was being dragged toward the dark passage by the monster. His bolter fell to the ground, and his gauntlet scratched the ground desperately, dragging out a string of sparks.

Soshiyang raised the Holy Flame Sword high and roared at the beast.

The next second, the creature retreated from his sword and bounced away like a ball of jelly. Even if the burning scene did not pierce it or physically touch it, it would It looked so painful that it even gave up its prey and ran away holding its head.

The Realm of Desolation was released with all its strength under Soshiyang's fury.

He turned into a huge black hole of soul. The flowing colors and howling sounds melted around him like ice and snow meeting fire. The monsters avoided him as if they were avoiding natural enemies, or turned around and ran away. .

For a moment, Soshyan seemed to be transformed into a stubborn boulder in the torrent. The rushing things smashed into pieces around him, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Such a scene also deeply shocked the soldiers behind him.

Armin, who kept shooting and observing, had a feeling that it was not the weapons that killed those creatures of chaos, but the person.

Even from such a distance, he could feel Soshyan's calm and rational anger.

It was like a strong wind blowing in a cold forest. The ruthless chill mixed with frost slowly tore the abomination into pieces. This chill made Armin shiver—— He has never had a shiver since his transformation.

He never realized that it would be so cold around Soshiyang. Even with his superhuman physique, he instinctively wanted to stay away from him.

"Ha!"

Soshyan smashed a monster in mid-air, and it exploded immediately. The sour and corrosive substance splashed on him, making his armor hiss.

He gripped the weapon tightly with both fists and roared.

He was born to fight, born to win, and every muscle in his body that is far beyond ordinary people is now tense.

However, the biting chill was hitting his heart, and the flames on the Sheng Yan Sword were getting dimmer.

Soshyan has never been using the Dark Realm for so long.

After taking a deep breath, he said to everyone.

"Tactical retreat, return to the Starfire."

He tuned his words to a wider frequency so everyone could hear.

"Install the melta bomb on the bridge, set the time, and we will withdraw immediately."

This was a last resort, and since the ship was not moving with engines, Soshyan could only try to destroy its "brain" to stop it.

Armin ordered the soldiers to take out the melted bombs that had been prepared and install them on the bridge. It only took half a minute, and in the process, Soshyan had already killed countless people. monster.

But they still keep coming.

Although they were very afraid of Soshiyang's gloomy domain, they seemed to be driven by something and pounced on it without stopping.

"Sir! Installation completed!"

Armin's roar mingled with the roar of bolters.

"Retreat! Everyone, follow me!"

Soshiyang roared angrily and rushed towards the passage from which they came, which was already crowded with people with twisted shapes. It was an ugly creation, with some limbs simply sticking out of the bulkhead.

The whole ship seemed to boil, or rather...

It turned into a living thing.
