Chapter 2110 Hold on to Hope (Part 2)
When the others jumped up and returned to their original positions, Hayes also climbed up and followed them.
For a moment, Hayes seemed to feel the blood rushing out of his ears and the beating of his heart, and then, like a slow awakening from a nightmare, he heard the death scream of falling shells again.
Suddenly, an explosion exploded from the air beside him, knocking him to the ground, and falling gravel scattered all over his body.
He spat out a mouthful of blood as he stumbled to his feet again, stumbling dazed through the long dangerous moment as more explosions shook the ground beneath his feet.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief and heard a familiar voice calling out in his confusion.
"Hayes, this way! This way!"
Hashet dragged him back to the bunker. Hayes looked at other positions. Many fortifications were in pieces, many The mutilated corpses and stone fragments were piled up together, and the wails of the injured could be heard one after another, but more of them were the curses of the officers.
Finally, the wait was over and Hayes heard for the first time the enemy screaming their terrible war cry.
At the same time, he felt that the ground was still shaking, but the source of the earthquake was getting closer and closer, and some already unstable bunkers began to collapse.
Just when the noise and vibrations reached their climax, the true source was revealed.
Three huge figures clumsily "squeezed" out of the cave in the distance. They were like some kind of earth-drilling machines. When they appeared, they directly expanded the small hole several times and were crushed. The rock flew hundreds of meters away, and then let out an evil howl, which sounded full of anger and pain.
Hayes has never seen these monsters before. They are covered in dark red armor. They are four to five meters tall. They look like some kind of four-legged beast. They are covered with thick metal. The only organic material is The terrifying blue tentacles growing out of the side of its torso, as well as the unblinking eyes on its chest, its forelimbs seem to be composed of some kind of long-range weapon, and burning flames can be seen in the huge open head. .
"Devil Engine!!!"
Olanios shouted to alert the people around him.
"Anti-vehicle team! Gather around me immediately!"
Along with these nightmarish mechanical creations, there were also a large number of fanatical servants holding high the Chaos war flag, wearing breathing masks, and with pale and twisted flesh. .
Although he had experienced so many terrible battles before, it was nothing compared to the horror that appeared in Hayes' vision now.
Just behind the rushing cultists, Hayes saw countless much larger figures emerging from the darkness. Each of them was a grotesque armored giant more than two meters tall, with mutated bodies. Letting out a ferocious savage roar.
Chaos Space Marines, Hayes had seen them before, but they were far away, and there were only three of them.
And here, there seem to be hundreds of
The word "hope" seems to have become some kind of ironic word at this moment.
Hashet's calm voice was barely audible amid the din.
“Keep calm and sharp. Heavy bolters will give priority to shooting those Chaos Space Marines, but their marksmanship is also very accurate. You need to protect yourself and change positions immediately after hitting a base.”
"Also, remember to aim higher. Heavy explosive shells must hit their vital points to ensure damage. Habri, don't worry about those cannon fodders. They are not a threat. Others will be cannon fodder."< br>
Hayes also switched the fire control from safe to "burst" and silently recited the laser gun litany in his head -
Member of Death, say your name,
< br>Because you are my life and the enemy's death.
"Prepare to fire."
The cultists were running closer, and behind the scurrying line of cannon fodder, Hayes could now see the fallen angels more clearly.
Their armor is full of distortion and intimidation, and many of their heads have been severely mutated, growing ferocious fangs, open jaws or insect-like mouths. Some of their arms and legs have also turned into arthropods, tentacles and even claws. , but their speed is very fast, getting closer and closer with every passing second.
As he watched them rush toward their position, Hayes felt himself gripped by an almost irresistible urge to turn and run. He wanted to hide, run away as fast as he could and never look back, full of fear, his mouth was dry and his hands were shaking.
Despite this, he still insisted on standing where he was.
“Fire!”
In an instant, every soldier on the line opened fire, bright laser fire lines burning in the air. As carefully selected defense forces, they proved to the enemy that they were not easy to pinch.
All kinds of laser guns, automatic cannons, and plasma cannons fire continuously. Almost all the troops on the Destruction Moon are over-equipped with heavy direct firepower in order to kill the enemy with maximum efficiency in the narrow underground.
In the blink of an eye, those crazy waves were suddenly choked as if they hit a rock.
The fragile flesh of mortals was easily torn apart without even a scream. The three demon engines were greeted by various plasmas and rockets, and automatic cannons struck cracks on their bodies. The firepower even made them stagger and unable to attack.
Even the Chaos Space Marines did not expect the firepower of these mortals to be so ferocious. Some unlucky ones were hit on the head by the intensive firepower and fell backwards, but more squatted down and started shooting.
At the same time, more cultists rushed out of the passage, some of them dragging light artillery and heavy machine guns.
Hayes fired without hesitation, as relentlessly as the others, again and again, his fear waning with each shot.
“I’ll kill one!”
Habri’s excited voice sounded, and then, under the influence of Hashet kicking his ass, he began to change the machine gun positions.
Hayes also killed several traitors. For the first time in his life, he experienced the brutal joy of killing. For the first time, he saw the enemy fall injured and fell. He felt a little happy in his heart. He knew the value of hatred.
Seeing his enemies die, he felt no sorrow for them, no sadness, no remorse for their deaths.
They have taken refuge in the devil, they are no longer human, they are unclean, they are all monsters, every one of them.
They are all monsters.
Suddenly, Hayes finally understood the propaganda.
A good soldier feels nothing but hatred.
Then, in the heat and noise of the battle, Hayes, moving with the machine-gun squad, saw something that made all his fears come flooding back.
Incredibly, despite the various casualties caused by various heavy weapons and artillery fire, the heretic charge did not waver.
And more huge twisted machines appeared. They looked like some kind of humanoid machines, about five meters tall, with broad bodies and animalistic heads. They carried weapons on their arms. As soon as they appeared Just shoot at the Imperial lines.
A huge fire rose on the defense line. It was a plasma cannon that was destroyed, and then an automatic cannon.
When some Chaos Space Marines took advantage of the cover and approached the defense line, bright streams of heat erupted, and the hidden melta cannon opened fire.
In an instant, a dozen Chaos Space Marines disappeared from the battlefield.
Similarly, when the firepower was concentrated on a twisted machine, the thing only lasted for more than ten seconds before falling down with a wailing sound of metal, its body spurting out flames.
But there are six such things!
When the new position was deployed, Hayes held the little angel to his lips and whispered a prayer.
Hopefully, he can leave here alive.
