Chapter 1542 Right and Wrong (Part 1)
At this time, the priest had completely transformed into another thing. The blackened skin fell off completely, and the scarlet muscles dripped from the stretched bones like melted wax. Come, the huge horns carry the aura of destruction, holding a rusty bloody sword tightly in the hand, but still wearing the hound mask on his face.
"Khorne's lackey!"
Bahram rushed to the altar, the daemon blinked its ever-changing eyes and swung his sword at the Space Marine.
But the opponent directly knocked it sideways with a sword, and then Bahram reached out and grabbed the mask. The mask shrank into a ball under his strong grip, and then his knees suddenly jerked. Top, directly smashing the devil into the altar with a burst of explosions.
The gray marrow began to take effect, and the demon's body gradually disintegrated.
Bahram's fingers tightened, the mask was squeezed out of shape, and the crushed skull let out intermittent groans.
“It’s over.”
With a snap, the demon that was full of evil a moment ago now disintegrated into bloody wreckage.
With the last hope dashed, even the most ardent believers of Khorne collapsed. They began to flee desperately for their lives, but they could not escape the pursuers in the darkness.
One of the women ran away from the beginning. As the sound of fighting in the distance was diluted and blurred by the distance, the exhausted woman left all her beliefs and gods behind. She just wanted to escape, not only for herself, but also for herself. For the life in the slightly bulging belly.
She resented her husband for choosing such a path, but it was the only way for their family to survive when they were hungry and cold. At least the church gave them food and a relatively safe place to live.
The scale of the underground passage is quite large. The hasty escape and the blurred light caused the woman to lose her direction. She could only take every step cautiously and be wary of any unusual movements.
Those terrifying giants had frightened her. If she had known that this was the punishment of the God Emperor, maybe she would not have done this just for a few mouthfuls of hot porridge.
But if it hadn’t been for those few mouthfuls of hot porridge, maybe she would have died long ago. After all, the church only takes things and never gives them.
Suddenly, she seemed to hear something, a faint breathing, and stopped.
"Is anyone there?"
The woman whispered, her body trembling constantly, her gray clothes already stained by sewage.
But the expected echo did not appear, and the darkness seemed to swallow up the words she murmured.
The woman hesitated. The boundless darkness seemed to have a mass, covering her eyes and bending her back. The lightless aura became heavier and heavier, almost crushing her.
After hesitating for a few steps, a bad feeling emerged in the woman's chest - the darkness holding her in her arms actually had life. It was standing in front of her, staring at him with invisible eyes.
The arms and legs trembled, and the dagger clenched in trembling hands collided with the button on the chest. The clicking sound was loud and frightening.
The woman knows that there is something accompanying her in the darkness. The fear of predators that has been hidden at the bottom of human consciousness since ancient times is screaming loudly.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I just wanted to live. I didn't break my promise. God Emperor, have mercy on me and my children."
The woman finally collapsed, crying, He staggered a few steps, then suddenly ran away.
Under the threat of death, the woman miraculously found a secret exit.
Suddenly, just as she pushed open the heavy fence door, the darkness changed its shape.
A huge figure instantly appeared in front of the woman, covered in blood.
The woman screamed and fell to the ground. The opponent's figure was so huge and terrifying, with lightning engraved on the silver-gray power armor, and the scarlet eyepieces stared into the woman's tear-filled eyes.
The unspeakable extreme fear instantly overwhelmed the woman. She collapsed and moaned softly.
"Please don't don't"
"Sorry."
The giant said softly, raised his right hand, and then swung it down with an unparalleled power——
“How did the boys do?”
“Not bad.”
After the operation, Bahram conducted a mission inventory outside the slaughterhouse, and the Guardsmen were clearing the battlefield.
This mission achieved its goal perfectly. No cultist escaped. The only accident was that during the battle, a group of refugees accidentally broke into the edge of the battlefield. They lost their homes due to the riots in the hive city. The residents of the bottom nest, because they were hungry, decided to come here to try their luck and see if they could pick up some leftovers. However, they did not find food, but became prey to the recruits guarding the perimeter.
The dozens of corpses were piled up and down, about to be burned. Due to the long-term turmoil and oppression, their bodies were all as skinny as firewood, just like real firewood.
Bahram knew that this was not the fault of the new recruits, because it was he who gave the order to eliminate everyone who tried to escape from the battlefield and anyone who came close to the battlefield.
Although this could be said to be a very slight manslaughter, he still could not completely erase the faces of their tragic deaths from his mind.
But this is war.
After gathering his mood, Bahram looked at the end of the battle briefing, but unexpectedly saw a line of words.
“A new recruit let the enemy go?”
Sabrin nodded with his arms crossed.
"Yeah, but fortunately, he was caught by the guards on the road and was just handed over to us."
Bahram took another careful look at the report at the back, frowned, and his face was uncertain for a few minutes. Finally, he whispered to Sablin:
"Call them all."
Soon, all the recruits were called in front of Bahram, a total of 50 recruits. Having carried out hulk missions has given them a certain warrior temperament, but it is not enough.
"Boban Haas of Team C, come out!"
As soon as Bahram's command came out, a recruit straightened his body suddenly, put his hands close to the sides of his thighs, raised his head slightly, and then stepped out of the queue.
He still looked a bit immature, with a short hair on his head. Under the gaze of the veterans, he subconsciously wanted to lower his head, but he immediately stopped himself.
Bahram waved the data pad on his hand and said to him:
"Why let the cultist go?"
The recruit pursed his lips tightly and did not immediately In reply, Li Lin immediately yelled impatiently.
"Idiot! I'm asking you a question!"
"Report to the commander! Because I can't do it!"
As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers looked sideways at him subconsciously, most of them with a smile on their face. Showing contempt, only those on his team looked helpless.
Bahram suddenly smiled, then jumped back and sat down on the huge metal ammunition box.
"Has, I won't ask you why you think this way. I just want to know, do you understand the consequences of doing this?"
"Sir! I know!"
"You know nothing!"
Sabrin immediately scolded.
"You have neglected your duty! Do you know how terrible it is to neglect your duty on the battlefield!? Your brother trusts you, trusts you with his life, and gives you his back. Any act of neglect on your part may lead to Kill them! What if it's not an ordinary cultist, but a leader? Or even a demon in disguise? If we are behind enemy lines and you let go of a messenger, it may attract a large number of people. Enemy, let your brother pay the blood price for your ridiculous compassion!”
Bahram smiled and pressed his hand, signaling Sablin not to get excited yet.
Then he looked at the new recruit.
“Haas, I remember that you are a very disciplined person who always strives to do tasks perfectly, so I believe that you should know the consequences of your actions better than anyone else, but you still do this I guess your compassion is not just because she is a poor woman, but also because she is pregnant?"
As he spoke, Bahram looked at the other recruits.
“Do you think Haas did something wrong?”
“Wrong!”
The queue responded neatly, even causing the guardsmen in the distance to cast curious glances, but they were quickly scolded away by the officers.
