Chapter 1274 The Contaminated Gene Stealer
“Uh——”
Although he didn’t understand Beria’s sudden attitude, Soshyan was still a little bit stunned after a brief period of astonishment. head.
"Thank you."
Half an hour later, a huge entrance and exit was created by Rogris. He used a searchlight to scan the dark interior for a while, and after confirming that there was no enemy ambush, he ended The visitors walked in one after another.
As soon as he entered, Soshyan felt a clear inclination of the floor under his feet. The angle may be close to 45°, which showed that the Mechanical Ark was not horizontal, but was embedded in the hulk at an angle.
The original appearance of the interior of the hulk is now completely unrecognizable. Everything has been distorted into grotesque shapes, including murals and statues.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Soshyan felt that there were a bit too many gold products in it, and it went beyond the aesthetics of the Blood Angels that he was familiar with.
According to the auger scan, they are approximately located at the stern of the ship. According to the general structure of the Ark provided by the mechanical sages, the STC template is generally stored in an encrypted isolation cabin in the middle of the hull.
“The blood of Sanguinius!”
Santo Joel seemed very excited after entering the Mechanical Ark. When he saw that a statue of the genetic ancestor had been twisted into some kind of blasphemy, his eyes almost burst out with fire.
“The filth here must be cleared away!”
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in Soshiyang’s ears.
"There is a very powerful demon here. I just bumped into it. It's no different, but it feels very familiar. You should be careful. I'm making a ritual. I can't get over it until later."< br>
Hearing Kayan's words, Soshiyang's heart suddenly sounded alarm bells.
What can make this devil expert say the word "powerful" is definitely not something simple.
The team then began to move along the main road near the keel. As the largest starship in the Empire, the interior of the Mechanical Ark Blood Red is equivalent to a small hive. Fortunately, the road is very straight and spacious, and there are still Rail, obviously its main internal personnel and material transfers were originally transported by rail.
But now, this place is as lifeless as a tomb.
After walking for about twenty minutes, they finally encountered a real enemy for the first time.
“These are——”
Soshiyang tightened his palm and easily crushed the monster's jaw.
Its upper jaw was broken, and its face was squeezed into a twisted and slender shape.
Even so, it still struggled in his grasp, trying to break free from its neck.
Soshiyan then smashed the thing to the ground with force.
Around him, the Terminators of the Astral Knights, the Deathwing Terminators, and the main force of the Blood Knights were shooting at the enemies pouring out of the hatches and pipes crazily.
At first Soshyan thought they were long-lost gene stealers, but then he discovered that these aliens were completely different from before.
Their bodies become soft, the skin appears translucent, tentacles and hoses are wrapped around the body, and the long face is more like a mask covering the twisted skin.
When they ran and moved, various disgusting liquids slowly flowed out from their mouths and buttocks, and the dirty tissue fluid quickly covered the ground.
“A gene stealer contaminated by the subspace?”
With some suspicion, Soshyan grabbed the nearest strange creature, flipped it to the ground, and then It hit the ground hard.
If you look closely, there is almost nothing on its face, as if it were clay that had just been pinched out by a sculptor.
However, its muscle tissue is the same as that of the Genestealers seen before, with wrinkled white scars all over its back and chest, part of which closely resembles the eight-pointed star symbol of chaos. Soshyan squinted his eyes and thought about the terrifying factors contained in it -
But these problems are not the main problem, they still have to move forward now.
“Don’t stop, keep moving.”
With the help of ferocious firepower, the team moved forward while eliminating the enemy, and soon reached the first large cabin.
This seemed to be a cargo transfer station, and Soshyan actually saw a few normal gene stealers. These creatures that still preserved their exoskeletons were huddled in the corner. When Shi Yang approached, he hurriedly ran away from him.
Like a frightened refugee.
In the side cabin, Soshyan saw some gene stealers lying in a large pile of garbage and rags, covered in filth, their eyes and tongues had been gouged out, and there was a twist next to them An almost unrecognizable golden statue.
Mast-like pillars rose from both sides of the golden statue, and a corpse was hung on each pillar. As far as Soshyan could see, these were gene stealers without mutation.
Their skin was a strange purple-red, and their faces, or what used to be faces, were covered in molten gold, one had its guts eviscerated, another had fire burning inside its skull, and the others He was still alive, but he was leaning on his head as if he was unaware of his surroundings.
There is even one with a cluster of stunted heads protruding from its stomach, and another with vivid patterns on its skin and curved horns.
Sosh realized with horror that these polluted aliens were sacrificing their own kind and piling tributes to the gods in the subspace - there were torn raw meat, broken gold nuggets, bones, and weapons. , and organs in glass jars.
Some parts of this area are plunged into darkness, or freezing cold, or extremely hot. In every corner there are insane, chaotic-thinking gene stealers. The madness and mutation in them have drifted away from reality. On the border with illusion.
"The biological sages have always concluded that the Tyranids will not be contaminated by the warp."
Beria shook off the pus stained on the sword, then walked to Soshyan and stared at the grotesque statue.
"It turns out they were wrong, there are always exceptions."
Then he looked at Soshyan.
"Grand Master Ezekiel just told me that there may be a very powerful demon here."
Soshyan nodded, since Kayan can feel it, Ezekiel has no reason to feel it Less than.
"We will destroy it. The Mechanical Ark is the empire's most valuable asset. We cannot make the final decision unless we have to."
Beria nodded slightly and said nothing more.
The team did not stay in this desecrated place for long and continued to move forward. The chaotic songs became louder and louder along the way, but fortunately they were blocked by the think tanks.
Soon, they arrived at a core area of the battleship - the
church.
The huge bronze door of the church was open, and the Space Marines walked directly in.
With the dazzling searchlight light, Soshyan saw that there were still believers praying in the church that was filled with filth for countless centuries.
They sang broken carols in chaotic and wordless voices, and a human-like figure stood on the pulpit.
When chanting together with the believers, it swayed with enthusiasm.
It stopped when it saw the Space Marines walking in.
