Chapter 1776 The Last Star Claw
After sleeping for an unknown length of time, he woke up in an unspeakable complete darkness. He tried hard to get up and move, but found that he couldn't do it. He tried hard to Gasping, but choked by the row of tubes shoved down his throat.
He began to struggle, but he could only tumble at the level of consciousness. It was like a dark sea with raging waves. He was sinking and floating in the black water, and the cold water slapped on his face, leaving him no time to think. Then he saw countless faces in the sea -
Most of them have been forgotten by him, but there are still a few unforgettable ones that remain in the corner of his memory -
"I am not a pirate. , Aruhun, just like you, I am also a Space Marine, from the Star Claw Chapter."
"Go to hell! The Starclaws betrayed the Emperor! You stopped calling yourself Space Marines a long time ago. You are just a bunch of bandits and pirates."
"No matter what, we It's time to reach the Maelstrom. It's time to reclaim your precious psychic powers and try to remember what it truly means to be a Space Marine and a Codex."
"Me. I swear to the Emperor that I will prove the truth of my words and restore the honor of the Starclaw."
"The Emperor may grant mercy to your soul, pirate."
< br>Suddenly, a bolt gun appeared in his sight and was held in his hand.
"Kill that white scar."
A voice that made him tremble sounded in his ears, but he couldn't remember who made such a voice.
“But, he, he helped me escape.”
“He helped you escape so that you could bring him here. He is a white-scarred spy. He was undoubtedly the one who was The one who was sent to kill me, now, take the gun and kill him!”
“Do it, pirate”
Aruhun's face appeared in the sea water, and he was so calm.
"I knew you were going to kill me in the end."
"No no!"
He tried to resist, but his finger pulled the trigger. The White Scars died without a word or complaint.
The bolter slipped from his fingers and he began to sink, in the cold, dark water.
In a daze, he didn't know how long he had been sinking, a day, a year, or a hundred years?
"Blood! Blood sacrifice to Khorne!"
"Blood! Blood sacrifice to Khorne!"
"Blood! Blood sacrifice to Khorne!"
Noisy The sound woke him up, and then he saw a gloomy warrior being forced to fight with a terrifying bloodthirsty madman. He wanted to rush forward, but countless hands grabbed his body.
Finally, he watched the man fall to the axe.
At that moment, all the sounds and resistance disappeared, and there was only the dying man lying on the ground in the darkness. He walked over with difficulty, because this was his only close friend in the battle group.
"Forgive me, Losar, I couldn't find you."
"I was discovered by..."
Losar gasped, but squeezed A bloody smile appeared, as if it was some kind of relief.
"But I have found out that the attack...the attack will come on the Expeditionary Planet. May the Emperor...save us."
Suddenly, his friend disappeared, the blood disappeared, and he was the only one left kneeling in the darkness. on the ground.
Bang!
A loud noise made him turn his head suddenly.
A half-machine, half-flesh giant wearing broken armor towered in front of him. His broken face exuded full threat, his eyes burned with an unclean flame, and his huge claws It's dripping with blood, billions of blood
"Garen told me that you were contacting the White Scars...I want to come over and thank you personally."
"Thank you...for me?"
He took a step back, but his mind was in confusion. , couldn't remember who this person was, but he hated him very much, and even wanted to kill him immediately.
Who is this person? "Yes, Star Claw."
The man grinned maliciously.
"I want to thank you for telling the White Scars that I was going to attack the Crusade. It was a touching display of misplaced loyalty, especially when you consider that I have changed my mind!"
"Have you changed your mind?"
He was shocked and suddenly recalled something in his heart.
Star Claw, Maelstrom, Expedition Star
"Uh-huh, no, I lied to you. I haven't changed my mind because we have never attacked the Expeditionary Planet. In fact, we are rushing to San Diego."
As he said that, the man waved his hand contemptuously He waved his hand.
"But, thanks to you, the White Scars will be far away from us when the Red Pirates sweep away that helpless planet."
Red Pirates, Huron!
At that moment, he remembered everything. He remembered his name, his identity, and even those dark days in Badab's world.
At that time, Huron poisoned the Star Claw Chapter and made them betray the Emperor. Sartak was originally loyal to the Emperor - just like a Space Marine should do, but he also followed Huron into the war. However, many years of plundering have taken their toll on this once idealistic warrior. Sartak was like a sleeper who was awakened. He opened his eyes and saw the man who was once called the "Tyrant of Badab". "The depravity and corruption that occurs in people.
He realized that he was wrong.
Saltak drew out his sword and pointed it at the opponent, but the tip of the sword was trembling and wavering.
"Santiago? There is nothing to plunder there, just an agricultural world with no military significance at all."
"Oh, but you are mistaken, there is still something there."
The other party gloated and pointed around with his fingers. Sartak turned his head and suddenly found himself in a burning world. There were corpses everywhere. The human bones were stacked on top of each other hundreds of meters high. They were everywhere. Evil statues pieced together from broken limbs, screams and howls are the only sounds.
"There are more than a billion unarmed civilians there, laughing and joking hahahaha!!!"
Unable to suppress the pleasure, Huron hissed, Sartak felt that his A cold rage is burning in the soul.
"My loyal little wizard, think about it, if I sacrifice the blood of a billion victims overnight, what will happen in the warp?"
"Huron , I followed you, I trusted you, but you brought me and all of us into hell! Are you worthy of the names of those martyrs engraved in the hall of the Eternal Gate (for participating in the blocking of the Fifth Black Crusade, Star? The Claw's chapter banner is placed in the hall of the Eternal Gate in the Palace of Terra) Do you deserve Chapter Master Rovik's trust? If I must follow Aruhun and Lothar to death, then I will. Let this sacrifice be your penance.”
After saying that, he roared and rushed towards Huron, but the other party just let out a shout of joy and blocked the force field sword with a huge metal claw block.
"You want to die now, don't you, last Star Claw?"
The Librarian released his sword and stepped back. He said a calm prayer and then concentrated Attention, a psychic attack was launched on Huron's diseased consciousness, the power of justice roared in his heart, and lightning flew clearly and truly from his hands.
But Huron, who was immersed in black evil energy, defused the attack with a flick of his wrist, and then giggled with perverse pleasure.
“That’s not the case, Sartak. Ordinary psychic tricks can no longer hurt me, so farewell, lovely traitor.”
The think tank did not give up. He stretched out his arms, and more powerful electricity rushed from his arms towards the abominable heretic traitor.
Suddenly, he felt pain in his wrist, and then his arm was cut off. When he staggered back, the opponent stepped on him to the ground.
"But you will not die a hero."
Huron bent down, his hateful face close to Saltak's bloody face.
"Instead, I will give you the greatest gift a Starclaw could ever receive."
He wanted to hold the lost sword in his hand, but he could hold nothing. Sartak roared in despair. He had failed Aruhun, he had failed Lothar, and he had failed the Emperor. ——
Tears mixed with blood slipped from the corners of his eyes, and his world fell into boundless darkness until that voice appeared.
"Sartak?"
