Chapter 233 Cold Treatment


Chapter 233 Cold Treatment

When everything settled, the airport became busy again.

Especially when the sword-class frigate "Glory Saber" on which the Astral Knights arrived docked, the deck suddenly became lively. The staff who had been under guard before were working non-stop after receiving physical examinations. Start working.

The dispatchers continue to be busy in front of the Thinker computer array, the workers and servitors attached to the deck have also returned to their daily maintenance and repair tasks, and the loaders are driving various transport vehicles on the line. .

Without the interruption of outsiders, the entire venue looked messy, and the logistics and technical staff were working feverishly to make up for the lost time.

They make sure unused aircraft are fully fueled, operating in good condition and ready to take off.

In the days to come, some workers will be transported up one after another from the ground to make up for the previous losses of personnel. At the same time, the alien corpses will also be processed intensively.

Soshyan and his team stayed on the boarding deck.

No matter what the subsequent results are, he and his warriors have completed their mission. The Sector Governor has dispatched three regiments of the Astra Militarum to the planet, and Griffin IV will also be stationed at key facilities. Deploy a squadron of Skitarii so they remain on the boarding deck in preparation for departure.

Soshiyang was not idle on the deck either. The local officials kept talking politely to him - after he reported that the mysterious sect had been wiped out underground, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. , after all, no one wants to mess with the Inquisition.

He didn't hear footsteps until someone spoke to him.

"How long."

An impatient voice said from behind.

Soshi Yang turned around and saw a tall figure wearing ill-fitting power armor and carrying a black iron gymnasium - after clearing the airport, Soshi Yang immediately asked Glory The technical sergeant on the Saber sent a set of power armor.

Sevita is not convenient to be exposed to the public eye, so his current identity is just an ordinary warrior.

"Chapter Commander."

"It will be soon. Refueling will not take more than an hour."

Sevita nodded, and Soshyan felt that the other party seemed to want to speak. He stopped again, but didn't know what he was going to say.

Then, Sevita patted Soshyan on the shoulder strangely.

“Let’s go check out that shuttle, the one that just landed.”

Sosh Yang looked at the dilapidated shuttle. No one had paid attention to it since it unloaded its cargo.

“I’m quite interested.”

Sevita said as he walked over.

Soshiyang felt strange. He couldn't understand what the traitor was thinking, but he still followed him.

“I’m very busy right now.”

"Ah, I know, noble Soshiyang Chapter Commander, but don't you think there is something wrong with that thing?"

"The Mechanicus has already scanned this machine. This honest transport aircraft is here. It is very common that a loyal official of the airport personally drives it to transport...a group of workers."

Sosh Yang glanced at the information on the data board, and there was nothing wrong with it.

“Ah, you are absolutely right.”

After walking in front of the thing, Savita surrounded the dilapidated shuttle, observing the huge engine and the spherical nose.

"I mean, it looks like it's almost a thousand years old. It must have been carefully maintained and repaired from generation to generation to get to its current state."

"Machine is a precious commodity Wealth. "

Soshyang responded impatiently, and then saw Savita getting under the thick wings and inspecting the bottom of the shuttle.

"That's true, but there are so many shuttles on the ground that are not in use, so why bother to use this one? It is the first transport plane to land here from the ground."

"Who Know.”

As if he thought of something that was puzzling to him, Sosh Yang frowned.

"Maybe they have a purpose for keeping it running, at least now it can be used."

"What use?"

Savitar from another A direction appeared, and he stared at the shuttle with an expression that Sosh Yang couldn't understand.

“So that’s it…”

"What's wrong?"

"S-Sir..."

As soon as Soshiyang asked, a shrinking voice suddenly sounded from behind him. Soshiyang looked back and found that it was a short man. The fat middle-aged man was sweating profusely and looking at him nervously.

Behind the man is a familiar person.

The boy named Nick was also looking at Sosh Yang.

"Nick?"

The boy nodded.

"Are you his father?"

"Yes, yes! I heard Nick say, thank you very much for your help, sir!"

The man exerted his strength He rubbed his hands together and looked very nervous. But Sosh Yang's eyes became strange.

"Nick, how did you escape?"

The boy did not reply.

"He, he was lucky at that time. Although he was scared and anxious, he, himself..."

As the man spoke, he became hesitant, and his eyes were a little hazy, as if he was talking in sleep.

"Did you drive up the transport plane?"

Savita looked at the man, who nodded in a daze.

“Nick!?”

Suddenly, a surprised voice sounded not far away, and then Armin ran over.

“You are alive, thank God!”

Armin was very happy, took off his helmet, and then touched the boy's head. The boy looked at him and suddenly smiled.

"...Thank you."

His voice was very soft and thin.

"Stop pretending, if you delay, you will be disappointed."

Savitar suddenly mocked, leaving Armin confused.

"What -"

He was about to ask, but Soshiyang took a deep breath, and then said:

"Armin, go find instructor Sol and tell him for ten minutes Gather later.”

“Yes.”

Although he still wanted to talk to the boy, Armin obeyed the order, saluted, and turned around and ran away quickly.

"You are hurting him by protecting him like this."

Looking at the retreating figure, Sevita hissed in a whisper.

“This is my responsibility.”

“Cruelty can make a warrior grow.”

“Shut your mouth!”

Soshiyang took a step forward, and then grabbed the boy's head violently, making him unable to make a sound. The man next to him still looked dazed.

"I leave this to you."

As he said that, he dragged the struggling boy all the way to the waste disposal channel on the side of the apron.

Sevita looked at his back, and the smile on his face faded. This stubbornness reminded him of someone - the guy who liked to tie himself to weapons with chains.

Then he shook his head to drive away those ridiculous thoughts.

He came to a hatch, grabbed the handle and pulled down hard.

Just as he guessed, the hatch was closed from the inside, and something terrible was hidden inside.

Sevita took a deep breath, held the opening handle, and pulled hard.

The metal began to bend and finally came loose, the welded hinge unable to withstand the immense strength of the Space Marine.

After a loud noise, Savita threw the door panel aside and stared at the dark gap that was torn open.

He saw that it was filled with thick black metal blocks, surrounding a circular core about one meter in diameter. Dark metal pillars protected the core in the middle. The small lights installed around the device flashed an ominous light. Dizzy, accompanied by a slight ticking sound.

Sevita stared at it for a moment, and then whispered to himself:

"Get rid of it."

With the gentle trembling of the iron hall behind him, those flashes The lights went out one by one, and the ticking sound disappeared.

At the same time, Sosh Yang also walked out of the passage, expressionless, and was wiping the blood on his gauntlets with a dirty rag.

"A destructive weapon should be a virus bomb. I didn't even know there was such a thing in this world."

When Soshyan came to the side, Sevita pointed to the "cargo" inside the cabin. " said.

“What about this man?”

Soshi Yang glanced at the man in a trance.

"It is probably useless. The gene stealer did not infect him, but he was controlled for too long."

After that, Soshyang summoned the arbitrator and told him everything that had just happened.

The shocked Arbitrator conducted another round of screening at the airport. This time he also called on the power of the Mechanicus. As a result, hundreds of gene stealers and controlled persons were uncovered, some of which were still Just arrived from the ground.

Facts have proved that this mess will not be cleaned up for a while.

But all this has nothing to do with the Astral Knights. After the screening began, Soshiyang led the team on the shuttle and boarded the Saber of Glory with the ancient virus bomb and left this place. planet.
