Chapter 2645: Underground Strange Tales
“I really hope I can kill some monsters or enemies quickly, those cowards in red robes are so boring.”
While everyone was busy, the most belligerent person in the team The pioneer couldn't help but use his chain sword to slash at the imaginary enemy without hesitation.
His competitiveness is also famous among many new blood believers. Although his violence is restrained by discipline based on blood, this attitude of doing nothing and just talking nonsense It still angered a lot of people.
"Put down your weapons and move these things up! Don't let me see you idle anymore! Otherwise I will let you go to other teams to find the fighting chance you want!"
Jackie properly conveyed opinions on behalf of everyone, and the guy finally had no choice but to move the huge boxes that were piled up in dismay.
Not long after they were busy, they heard a greeting, and Jackie quickly walked out of the dispatch station
Under the illumination of the searchlight, he saw some shadows in the direction they came from. There was shaking, and then there was the sound of sharp claws scraping against metal, but the new blood did not find it strange or suspicious. The breath of the holy hybrids of the cult attracted the attention of the new blood believers through the foul-smelling miasma. So far.
“We are coming”
A huge three-armed acolyte came to the crowd without protection and wearing a thin slave uniform. The members behind it were slightly smaller in size. Smaller than the leader, but their average size is still larger than the tallest new blood offspring here.
Out of sheer piety, the new blood bowed their heads and saluted their predecessors.
"Powerful champions, welcome you, our team will do its best to protect you."
Jackie's words were very impassioned, but in the face of the situation before him The tall and grotesque family members, as well as the acolytes' sharp claws that can penetrate composite metal and a mouth full of fangs, this sentence is more like a childish promise to an adult.
“Don’t be nervous, we are protecting your duty, Bishop”
The status in the religious order is determined according to the purity of blood. Except for those bishops and elders who have strong spiritual power, most of them The less human the majority of the believers are, the higher their level. Among them, the highest level is the "pure-blood angel" who has completely shed the human form, followed by the hybrid acolytes who are like beasts. They have an atavistic appearance like pure-blood angels and are more powerful. Stronger and more primitive, although this also prevents them from expressing their inner thoughts in short and clear words like humans like the New Blood Cultists.
The appearance of the acolytes aroused the killing instinct of the Genestealer hybrids. Their original fear and apprehension were quickly forgotten, and they began to gear up and wait for the next action.
But the acolytes did not act immediately, and neither did Jackie, because he sensed that something was coming again.
Soon, a giant beast that had lost its chains appeared in the light with the sound of broken floor tiles. This was a deformed thing over 3 meters tall and a living totem of the cult.
Its huge claws are driven by thick arms shaped like tires to grasp a twisted metal pole road sign. The shackles around its neck have been artificially removed, and it is being guided everywhere by the bishop's psychic beacon.
This blue-purple three-armed giant immediately attracted the respect of all believers, who lowered their heads one after another. In their eyes, although the aberration was weird and ugly, it was full of an indescribable charm and a symbol. It exudes the beauty of strength. Originally, the collar around its neck was a symbol of being enslaved by the sect. The bishop chose it as a war machine, but also bound it like an animal. Although no believer wanted to desecrate the divine creation in front of him, it An overly violent temperament and a huge body that cannot be ignored will still cause trouble in the daily life of the Order.
But it is not actually irritable towards the new blood, but has a unique care for them.
On the broad forehead of the aberration, there are several strange eyes of different sizes and sizes, as well as a weird but very useful olfactory organ.
It stopped in front of the new bloods, shook its head, and mumbled a few vague words in its throat.
"Follow you. Be careful of the darkness"
"Jackie, lead your team and leave a small number of people at the transfer station."
The bishop's voice sounded in Jackie's head, but it seemed a little weak.
"That kind of interference. Be careful again." "Yes, Bishop, you will definitely live up to your trust."
When the Bishop gave him a powerful military force When he was working as a guard, Jackie realized that their road might be the "most promising" road at present. This heavy weight made him feel proud and a little scared. He was worried that his failure would cause irreparable losses to the Order.
"Twenty of you stay here and guard here. If there is any situation, report to the rear immediately. Be smart and leave if the situation is not right. The most important thing is to convey the information to the bishop. Don't sacrifice in vain."< br>
After the arrangements were made, Jackie started with the aberrations and began to go deep into the old home that had become creepy.
The reason why the aberrations are arranged to go to the front is not because they are afraid of death, but because the aberrations have a special crisis instinct, and their sense of danger is even stronger than that of the bishop. The new bloods are armed with guns to be wary of the dilapidated surroundings. vent, the acolytes slowly followed the former's footsteps to maintain a reliable retreat for this pathfinding force.
The aberration with a body as hard and strong as a giant rock made a lot of noise while walking. The heavy feet burst out with thunderous footsteps, almost crushing the passage. Standing still, the chitin armor on its body exuded a gem-like luster under the illumination of the helmet's searchlight.
After walking for thousands of meters, the aberration’s swollen nasal cavity seemed to be sniffing something, and it stopped.
Jackie walked carefully past it and found horrifying evidence - on both sides of the dirty and damp passage, there were many chitinous remains like fossil remains. Jackie and his teammates walked over, A torn remains came into view. It was a pure blood. The whole body was cut into three pieces by some force. The flesh and blood had been corrupted, but the bones and carapace remained.
Pure-blood angels are sacred in the eyes of the new bloods, but now there is one, or more than one, lying dead here.
What killed them?
“The incision is very smooth, like the laser or ray weapon of the mechanical slave masters.”
Jackie pointed the sharp blade in his hand at the edge of the body that was broken into three parts, and then He found something, squatted down, and looked under the body.
Three deep carvings were clearly visible on the metal ground. Jackie brushed the metal surface with his palm, and a terrifying claw suddenly appeared in his mind, even more powerful than the claws of pure-blood angels. Terrible, this made his heart suddenly start beating wildly.
"Damn it. What kind of weapon is this? It has such power"
"What to do now?"
"Keep walking, everyone be more careful."
Jackie is here He went to the aberrant body and tried to appease its uneasiness, but the aberrant body still kept mumbling. Perhaps it was because the spiritual connection with the bishop was cut off, which made it uneasy, but it finally took a step forward.
As they continued to go deeper underground, they saw more and more remains, and the new blood became more and more nervous.
But fortunately, no real enemy appeared. Finally, they arrived at the second transfer station, which meant that they only had two transfer stations left before their destination!
This place is as desolate and abandoned as before. It even retains many of the living facilities built by the Order in the past, such as underground farms and recruit training camps. The flag of the Order is weakly strung on a metal on the pole, and it was here that Jackie found that his telepathy with the rest of his kindred had become sluggish, dull, or even blocked, and that he had to rely more on spoken word to convey instructions.
But the impact of the division of the soul is more than that. The new blood began to be a little panicked. They instinctively looked to the mixed-blood acolytes and tried to gain strength from their ancestors
"Don't panic, everyone." , this is our home, we must take it back and check it carefully as a team.”
