Standard Terra Calendar.930.M41

Hazy Star Field, Walvis System, Flame Star 2

This huge space station Was moaning.

It is like a dead creature floating in the void at this moment: the steel shell, the hollowed-out interior creaking, there is no sign of any creature moving on the internal skeleton and gun base, the silent church No one knelt down, there was no light source in each cabin, and the remaining light was almost exhausted.

However, somewhere in the vast depths, there was a flickering light of armor.

Six moving pale lights shine like the beams of search lights, reflecting the light on the steel wall as cold as ice.

A group of armored warriors moved in a single column along the corridor. Although they walked very slowly, their footsteps turned into ripples of metallic sound in the endless corridors and pipes. echoed in the maze.

Beside them, an extremely weak singing voice followed.

【Ask the Emperor to save us】

Yanis Bozovic remained in the middle of the team, holding a bolter in both hands, chanting battle prayers with the sisters beside her, their voices stretching out like tentacles into the cold.

Ahead of her, Sister Captain Adriana Velez walked ahead of the expedition, holding her pistol in one hand and her pistol in the other. The screen of the detection device flashed a dim green light.

[From Lightning and Storm]

The melody of this prayer is very intimate and harmonious, flowing among the people as if sharing the power of six people, their jet black armors are all It is made of shaped alloy and plastic steel armor plates, and the cloak is black and white, each one embroidered with the symbol of the Order of the Holy Grail in ebony.

As Battle Sisters, they were sent to this space station floating in the orbit of the planet to conduct reconnaissance. Their main tasks were to find survivors and protect the property of the Imperial State Church-the unit to which this space station was affiliated.

Flame Star 2 is not a habitable world. In fact, it is a dead world with extremely high surface temperatures and active volcanoes everywhere.

But the thin atmosphere of this planet contains some kind of magical substance that can greatly increase the burning time of candles.

So the Ecclesiarchy obtained the development rights of this planet and built a huge space station.

Every day, tens of thousands of miners drive small collection spacecraft to the planet below, collect those materials in volcanic ash and storms, and return to the space station for basic processing and transportation to various national religions. world.

But a few months ago, this space station suddenly lost contact. Since this planet is not an important location, and there are no Astra Militarum troops stationed nearby, even if it is called, it may not respond.

So the State Church simply sent out direct armed forces and the battle nuns to investigate.

The Order of the Ebony Holy Grail, which is the closest to here, took over this task——

Finally, a cruiser arrived here carrying five teams of nuns.

But after their search, the Flame Star 2 space station was just floating silently, like a slowly decaying corpse, without any abnormality.

All life seems to have evaporated.

"Keep the formation closed."

Adrienne Velez's order sounded softly in the team channel, and the echoes continued to the void.

Due to her outstanding performance in the New Badab War, after returning to the monastery, she was quickly promoted to a mid-level commanding nun, able to command several squads at the same time.

However, she is still accustomed to personally commanding from the front line, which has also earned her a reputation for bravery and fearlessness.

There are even rumors that the Grand Sister has included her in the list of successors to consider,

[The Emperor saved us...]

Joshuaina Pei behind Agnes Te continued to sing, her voice intertwined with the singing of the sisters. Agnes and she graduated from the same nun college. As early as in the college, it was easy to find her lonely voice in the church or cathedral. body, she would stand firm and pray patiently.

But here, distracting thoughts are a danger. Agnes dismissed these thoughts and focused on the prayer.

[From plagues, temptations, witchcraft, wars——] Although it is not fully understood, the prayer is unquestionable: He is everywhere.

As the group moved down another iron staircase, past a hatch or vent on another level, they would chant His name and He would walk around them.

[The Emperor saved us...]

Even here, deep in this huge steel tomb.

“I am worried that the machine spirit of this space station is dissipating.”

Velez said, her tone still calm.

“But judging from the fact that the air and gravity fields still exist, it may be enough to sustain for a while. We will continue to move towards the bottom, heading to the fusion reactor below

, if there are any signs of life, I think that’s where we should go.”

“Understood”

The team members responded to her obediently, and the team passed a T-shaped intersection. Moving downward, everyone silently recited prayers in their hearts.

They walked down two more floors, all the way to the creaking and dirty bottom channel. The screen above the terminal made a wisp of white noise, and they projected ghostly images on the rusty wall. Like lights, wires hung above them like exposed nerves.

The red boots stepped on the fallen servo skeleton. It responded with a grin with empty eyes, as if it was mocking these ladies.

“There’s movement!”

The shout came from the front, and the owner of the voice was Sister Jenny, a heavy weapons hand.

Yanice instinctively entered a fighting crouching position, aiming the bolter in her hand at the entire corridor.

Under the narrow beam of the armor's lighting, she saw an erratic and confusing figure moving towards them

: blue-gray muscles, a strong body, deformed limbs, and obvious traces of stitches. skin, and a sharp blade shining in the dark.

A second later, the muzzle of Sister Jenny's heavy bolter exploded with a dazzling red flash like lightning - fully automatic fire mode, the noise was very loud.

In the radio channel, Velez also issued an order.

She said calmly:

"Jenny, maintain suppressive fire, keep them pinned in place."

"As you command."

[The Emperor saved us...]

bolters pounding the war In the song, those figures staggered, roared loudly, and fell down. Their faces were covered under blood-stained metal masks, and the hoarse sounds came from under the masks, more like wails of pain.

They are very fast, even if they are hit by explosive bombs, they still try to swing their melee weapons at the nuns.

During the fierce battle, the explosion swallowed up the entire corridor, sparks ricocheted around and on the walls, and water and waste materials flew everywhere under repeated impacts and impacts.

"Eileen!"

Velez shouted into the intercom as he fired.

“Did you encounter enemy troops there?”

“Encountered enemies, the number is unknown!”
