Chapter 1200 Blood Curse


Chapter 1200 The Blood Curse

Because the Blood Knight Chapter has not been replenished for many years, the fleet only has the ancient battle barge Blood Curse and two frigates that are in disrepair. As a result, the two frigates were sunk from the beginning. , the other party didn't give them any chance to explain.

Facing the menacing enemy, Santo Joel has only two choices: fight or run away.

Although he is very warlike, he is not stupid at all. With such a disadvantage in numbers and fleet, there will be no benefit in fighting the Black Templar

"Subspace Engine How long will it take to be ready?”

"Ten minutes."

"Those madmen in black armor won't give us ten minutes."

"Okay, I'll do my best to finish it in nine minutes."

"Anyway, take us out of here as soon as possible. The artillery deck is almost scrapped."

"Understood, Chapter Commander, but I suggest you send more people to control the damage. After all, before we can leave, Black The Holy Church will freely exert their destructive power on us."

"We are thinking of a way."

When more shells hit the vital points, the Blood Curse trembled. Various impacts, such as the crackling sound of sparks hitting the hull, were made by the wreckage scraping against the hull, and The turrets finally finished their work and the fighters and bombers began to retreat back to their mother ships.

At this time, the Black Templar's strike cruiser broke away from the formation and formed a high shooting angle at the Blood Curse.

The next second, the moment the main gun array of the strike cruiser fired, the two ships seemed to be connected by a burning light bridge.

Santo Joel arrived at the reactor array of the Blood Curse at this time. There are many plasma reactors inside. To start the subspace engine, the safety here must be ensured.

The reactor chamber is very huge, one kilometer long, with criss-crossing passages. There are a total of six reactors here. The cylinder of each reactor is a container filled with superheated plasma. It is locked in a continuous energy reaction and flows towards the blood. The Cursed's warp navigation array delivers energy.

At its top are spider-shaped steel pillars that support the cables and pipes that provide fuel and coolant to the reactors. Santo Joel hurried past a gantry between reactors 1 and 2. The commander of the first company, Cheri Guerrero, and several of his soldiers were at the front console.

"Chapter Master."

When he saw Santo Joel approaching, he immediately said:

"I heard on the data network that there are brothers Fell down.”

"There are only Wesley and Dawn at the moment, but the enemy is throwing all the shells at us. If we can't get out in time, I'm afraid our results will not be good."

Santo Joel then put him The communication network was transferred to the bridge.

"Frank, I'm at the reactor, they look like they're doing fine."

"That's good, if we lose the reactor, we're screwed-"

Boom!

The loud explosion confirmed Frank's death sentence. A wall was scraped off by the explosion and flew towards the cabin, throwing out a shower of metal fragments.

The shell fired by the macro cannon penetrated one side of the Blood Curse's hull. The howling wind and shrapnel tore apart the upper church, and white-hot shrapnel flew everywhere.

The shock wave threw Santo Joel off the console and into the wall.

His head was so dizzy that if he hadn't been wearing a helmet, he might have fainted on the spot, but luckily he still had enough strength to stay still, because if he had fallen on the deck, he might have died from the cold in the void.

He then punched out in reflex, punching through the reactor room wall, stabilizing him as he fell due to gravity.

The echoes of the explosion roared around the room. The hull was completely destroyed, and the maze of damaged bulkheads and decks behind it were completely exposed to the void. Then the air was sucked out from the cracks in the hull, and a burst of flames roared into the wound. Debris from the explosion penetrated the vessels of reactors 1 and 2, and reactor 1 even collapsed, being too heavy for its shattered foundations.

When the top of the reactor touches the plasma lake, the plasma instantly melts through it, and the burning plasma forms an arc like a solar flare, which explodes with destructive Energy surged through the roof of the reactor chamber, burrowing through the walkways and command platforms.

The next second, a huge torrent spurted out from the lower part of the reactor. The hot torrent flowed through the entangled pipes and cables, covering the floor of the cabin.

Santo Joel realizes an object is falling towards him: it is his brother.

So he stretched out an arm and caught the falling warrior's shoulders. Although the weight almost pulled Santo Joel from the wall, he held on.

The red spray paint on the warrior's armor was bubbling in the hot air, and Santo Joel kept climbing up until he was level with the broken end of the sidewalk.

Most of its corridors were torn off and thrown into the depths of the chamber, but what remained was enough to support the weight of a Space Marine. It connected to the cabin at the maintenance entrance. Santo Joel placed the A brother dragged him to the street and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was still alive.

He then looked across the room, trying to find more survivors.

Santo Joel saw several Blood Knights clinging to an unsecured walkway and crawling towards a mostly intact command platform, from where they could enter the passage above the room.

The First Company Commander himself was thrown onto the top of Reactor Three, heading towards the top of the pipes and cables connecting it to the ceiling.

"Frank!"

Santo Joel shouted, the last air in the room screaming, overheated, making a terrible sound like a firestorm that destroyed everything.

"What the hell is going on?"

Santo Joel's voice broke over the static.

"A direct hit from the enemy ship's macro gun! Commander, report the loss!"

"Reactors No. 1 and No. 2 have ruptured. Plasma is being released, and No. 3 is also fast——"

"Evacuate the area and I will shut down the subspace engine."

"No! It cannot be shut down! We will definitely die if we do this! Take a gamble!"

"Oh, well, if As you wish, Chapter Master”

As soon as the last words Santo Joel heard reached his ears, Reactor No. 2 exploded, the pressure inside being too great for its failing structure.

A pure white plasma nova erupted, and the structure of Reactor No. 2 was destroyed. Swarms of plasma rushed towards nearby reactors, cutting off more maintenance channels. The sound was simply a vibration traveling through the walls to which Santo Joel was attached, like the roar of a giant on the run.

After a while, the glare gradually disappeared, and Santo Joel saw the company commander huddled in the shock wave of the explosion, still clinging to the No. 3 reactor.

"Sheri, are you okay?"

"Nothing, Chapter Master."

The voice of the company commander was so distorted by the interference that it was almost incomprehensible.

"There's just no way to get out of here."
