Chapter 705 Multiple Identities
Angelica opened her eyes and felt her eyes filled with tears that stung her eyelids.
The first thing she felt was sharp, unfamiliar, tearing pain, everything from the spine down ached with pulses and sickening heartbeats.
Soon, training instinct replaced the biological instinct of disorientation, she had to know her location and escape, with no other higher priority goal.
Then her eyes focused, turning the vague gloom into a clear illusion.
It was still the same hall, but she faced a cold wall and seemed to be hanging upside down.
Angelica wanted to stand up, but her limbs wouldn't obey her. She couldn't even lift her head.
Finally, she heard a harsh breath, the tooth-aching rumble of power armor.
“Don’t try to struggle.”
The voice was still roaring harshly as before.
"Your legs have been dismembered, both arms are tied, and you can only remain conscious while chemical painkillers are injected into your bloodstream."
A figure in armor appeared, striding up to her nearby.
It was the man who had captured her, his visor painted as white as a skull, his forehead carved with the runes of a forgotten language.
“You can’t escape from here.”
The figure said, she guessed that this was Talos that Soshyan had always called him.
"No matter where you come from, you can never go back, and there is no other destiny, so I give you a choice, Inquisitor, tell us what we want to know, let you die quickly, or torture me You can tell us in a few hours."
Angelica's mouth was full of blood as she spoke, but her voice was as strong as ever.
“I would rather die than report to the heretics.”
Hearing Angelica’s stubborn reply, Talos’s helmet crackled, and there was a hint of laughter in his voice. meaning.
"Everyone says that".
"Pain...well, pain is nothing to me."
"When the anesthetics remaining in your body are overflowing, pain is meaningless to you, but this is not absolute, I am very Understand the mortal body."
"I am the Eye of the Throne"
Anjelica replied provocatively.
"I am the Emperor's Judgment, you will get nothing from me, Fallen One, only curses heaped upon your worthless life! Don't think I don't know, you are anything but Astartes of the Empire, you reek of the unique stench of Chaos Heresy!”
Talos smiled, happily.
“You know, in the past, countless souls stronger than yours have collapsed in my claws. For the sake of Soshiyang quite liking you, don’t force me to do this. Do it."
"How do you know where my equipment is hidden?"
"I saw it. I am a think tank. Don't forget, I can see when I am in pain. Clear the way to the future."
"Witchcraft, black magic!"
Angelica cursed sharply.
"Maybe, but it worked, didn't it?"
"My death will not make you proud for long, I have spent my life serving the Golden Throne, so you Do whatever you want, pain will never turn me into a traitor."
"Then you choose, this is your last moment to recover from the pain, while you can still enjoy it. Enjoy it. "
Suddenly, another set of heavier footsteps came, and then Angelica, who was originally upside down, was suddenly liberated, and someone untied the rope on her only remaining leg. and lowered her along the wall.
This time she saw that the astral knights were all gathered together, staring at her, like spectators waiting on the execution ground, each one of them extremely indifferent.
Of course, he was the only one who released her.
"Judge Angelica, who do you serve?"
Soshiyan's tone remained calm as usual. He looked down at the bloody judge. The previous There is no anger anymore, only regret.
"I serve the Golden Throne, the remnants of the Eleventh Legion."
"You don't have to do this."
Soshyan shook his head.
"Whether you intend to anger me or not, I will give you a happy death. I am not interested in torture, and I don't intend to waste time torturing you." Then, he raised the storm blast on his arm. shotgun.
“Whether what you say is true or false, may your soul return to the throne, and may our crimes be forgiven.”
"Wait-"
Suddenly, Angelica gasped and spoke.
"There is something I want to say to you, just you."
Soshyan hesitated for a few seconds, and then looked at Talos.
The prophet shrugged and walked away.
Then he squatted down and pulled himself towards Angelica, trying not to let his armor touch the opponent.
"Soshyan, I can see that you are not a degenerate."
"Whether you believe it or not, I have never betrayed the Empire, let alone the Emperor."< br>
"So. I want to remind you, little Psychic Tribe."
Soshiyang looked at her and nodded.
"I will."
"Then, the last sentence is left."
A bright smile broke out on Angelica's blood-stained face.
"See you again if we are destined."
As she spoke, colorful patterns appeared on her skin, spreading like ivy growing on a wall illuminated by the sun.
In the blink of an eye, emerald green lizards covered Angelica's neck and face. Their bodies, tails and legs were close to each other without any gaps. At the same time, blue-green feathers covered her forearms, and slender red and black feathers covered her forearms. Two-color spirals unfold on the palms and fingers.
At this moment, Angelica's smile was like opening a crack in the jungle of tattoos on her face.
Soshyan was stunned for a moment in front of this sudden change. When he wanted to take action, he found that his armor server was locked.
“You——”
Behind him, Talos suddenly roared.
"Damn! She is an agent of Alpha!"
Angelica suddenly put her hand into her throat, took out a small red glass bottle, and crushed it violently.
After a disgusting moment, a bright object emerged from the void, like a centipede with a dark shell and slippery pseudopods on its body.
This thing flashed out of thin air, then wrapped around Angelica, and began to coil and shrink.
Soshyan was shocked and forced the metal fiber of the armor to obey him, and then slammed his fist against it.
But that thing had tightened its entangled body and began to fluctuate. Soshyan's iron fist only hit the air.
Angelica has disappeared, leaving only a pool of shiny black slime and broken glass.
“Uh, this thing.”
Loken also hurried over at this time. After searching Soshyan for a while, he found a tiny, spider-like thing on his lower back. The machine latched onto his armor and hacked into the Terminator's servers.
When Loken took off the machine, Soshyan finally stood up.
At this moment, the hall suddenly began to tremble violently.
“What’s going on?”
Soshiyang turned around suddenly.
"Chapter Commander, this place suddenly started to sink!!"
"Sinking?"
The vibrations became more and more obvious, and the warriors had to activate the magnetic locks to hold themselves in place, while Loken simply hugged a pillar.
Soshiyang suddenly thought of a previous conjecture, and now it seems that it should be confirmed.
This place really does move!
