Chapter 61 Breakaway
Despite its speed and ferocity, this ghostly demon was no match for the stoic Astartes.
The fear and pain in the hearts of mortals will become their food, but when the Astartes face them, they will not give them any chance.
There is no mercy, only until death.
After finishing his opponent, Soshiyang watched Thor kill everyone in the demon pile. This veteran from 10,000 years ago seemed to be controlled by an emotion beyond imagination, venting his heart in the silent killing. of anger.
His sword kept piercing the monsters, and more than two digits of monsters had turned into the jelly-like liquid on the ground.
Seeing this scene, although Soshiyang considered himself a qualified warrior, no matter from which perspective, compared with Thor, he was just a rookie.
The battle only started for a few minutes before it came to an end, and the last demon was sent away.
The roar of bolters and the roar of chainswords ceased, and the Space Marines regrouped around their commander.
“There!”
After entering the landing platform from the entrance, Soshyan saw the Thunderhawk parked there.
At this time, the trembling of the battleship had turned into a loud noise like a landslide. Many wreckage fell from the top of the flight deck, and the huge pipelines were swinging around like dissected intestines.
But this did not become an obstacle to the Space Marines' progress. They moved towards the Thunder Eagle step by step, avoiding those huge obstacles.
As he got closer to Thunder Eagle, Soshyan could feel that there was some kind of powerful psychic power nearby. He smelled a smell that could not be detected by others, like a kind of rotten rot. The smell of meat.
He glanced at Thor beside him and found that he was frowning and seemed to be suffering from the smell of subspace.
At this time, Soshyan suddenly realized a problem.
Is Thor's encounter with them too much of a coincidence?
What is the purpose of this demon-controlled battleship rushing towards them?
As the distance from Thunder Eagle got closer and closer, the warriors remained silent, each of them burying their thoughts deep in their hearts.
Suddenly, Thor sniffed the air and raised his hand to signal to stop.
"Something's wrong."
A hazy light rose behind the Thunder Eagle, accompanied by a colorful smoke.
Those smokes are actually etheric energy. Soshiyan can see it. The rest of the Space Marines seem to be unaware of the smoke. The floating smoke is constantly twisting and coiling, as if it contains pain and fear. .
Maybe Thor could see it too, and his eyes followed the painful path in the smoke.
Then, there was a terrible scream, which seemed to be the ensemble of thousands of dead souls.
Suddenly, except for Soshyan, all the Space Marines felt like they had been hit hard on the head with a sledgehammer.
"Well! This is-"
Armin was kneeling on the ground, the stinging pain trying to squeeze into his head, like someone using a red-hot fork from It's like being poked into the ear.
Faced with such a psychic attack, even Thor staggered a few times, but still stood firmly on the ground with both feet and did not fall.
At this time, Soshyan saw a "thing" crawling out from behind the Thunder Eagle.
Soon, the entire top of the Thunder Eagle was occupied by this creature that seemed to be composed of translucent mucus.
Its surface is sticky, and the patterns revealed look like millions of wide-open eyes looking out, glowing like creatures in the trenches deep in the ocean, with colorful lights. It is from within the creature that it lights up.
Soshyan can even "see" the primitive hunger rushing in the heart of this creature.
It clings to the top of the Thunder Eagle like a giant parasite, with a diameter of hundreds of meters. It seems to be constantly moving, sometimes expanding and sometimes shrinking, and its shape changes.
Tentacles dripping with unknown liquid hang down from the huge mollusk like vines.
When the scream subsided, only a low buzz, a rapid scream, and a hiss like a poisonous snake's message were all mixed together.
The stars shine around it, like a dream, and the starlight that seems far and near is constantly rotating in the depths, as if the "food" swallowed in the past ancient years has not been fully digested.
Soshiyang gasped, breathing rapidly. Faced with this thing that should not exist at all, he tried his best to maintain his sanity. And just when the Astral Knights, including Soshiyang, were all distracted by the terrifying thing appearing in front of them.
The roar of the bolter suddenly sounded, blasting the monster's outstretched tentacles into pieces.
"The Emperor's son, the enemy who killed his father!!"
Thor drew his sword in his hand and began to charge.
Seeing how brave this veteran from ten thousand years ago was, the Star Knights also came to their senses, shouted war cries and launched an attack.
So does Soshyan.
He gritted his teeth and let the active metal flow through his body again.
The appearance of the black hole in the soul made the creature flinch, but when the bomb hit its body, it rolled back in pain.
Thor's sword was the first to touch it.
With incomparable hatred and rage, the Emperor's Children's blade carved a huge scar on the monster's body, and strong etheric energy vented from it, as well as the wail of the dead souls.
It wanted to fight back, and its tentacles rolled straight towards Thor, but it was crushed by a hot sword.
"Quick! Board the Thunderhawk!"
Soshyan waved his sword wildly while giving orders to Rogris.
After the technical sergeant blasted away a path, he immediately got into the cockpit of the Thunder Eagle. From further away, a tide of demonic fish was already coming.
It seemed unwilling to let go of these prey, and tried hard to entangle the Thunder Eagle, but Soshyan's approach forced it to retreat, so it chose to roll up the wreckage and smash it at everyone. past.
Boom——!
A beam two people wide hit hard less than half a meter away from Soshyan. He knew that the other party would never give up. In order to cover the Thunder Eagle's takeoff, he rushed forward and continued with his sword. Bite the opponent's body.
"You go up first! Hurry!"
The soldiers boarded the Thunder Eagle one after another, and Thor was the last one to board.
"Chapter Master! Hurry!"
The Thunderhawk's engine has been started, and a warrior controls the heavy bolter on it, using a metal storm to stop the large group of demons.
But they are still approaching.
Soshyan heard the anxious roar in the communicator, and then waved his right arm, crushing a large piece of tentacles in front of him, then turned around and started sprinting at full speed.
Thunder Eagle has been suspended half a meter in the air, while the tide of demons is less than a hundred meters away from them.
Soshyan ran with all his strength, the tentacles chasing after him, but he had no time to care about them.
He panted violently, forcing the gray marrow to make his heart completely frozen, and he could only squeeze out the last bit of strength.
Twenty meters
Ten meters
Five meters
At the last step, the chill in his bones pierced his brainstem like a poisonous needle. Soshiyang's vision went dark and he fell forward.
In my ears, I heard the terrified roars of the soldiers.
Then, a strong hand grasped his arm and lifted it hard.
"Ha...ha..."
Soshiyang was lying in the cabin, breathing heavily, with a flashing red light in front of him.
After a few seconds, when he felt he could speak, he turned his head and whispered to Thor, who was sitting near the hatch:
"Thank you."
The other party did not reply, but quietly stared at the gradually disintegrating battleship outside the window.
