Chapter 2883 Old Photos
Bahram did not remember many mortals in the Maelstrom Expedition, but the new governor, who was said to have gained military merit, had an impression, but then he showed a confused expression.
"Then why don't you follow him to Badab to enjoy the blessings? I heard that there are not many people left after his team battle. If you follow him, you will definitely be rich and prosperous."
< br>Hearing this, Hayes made his signature move and scratched the back of his head.
"Report sir. I don't want to trouble others. You see, I have no skills and am disabled. There is an old saying in Chaodu that poor relatives are annoying. Since there are better choices, why should I go? As the poor relative who lives under someone else’s roof.”
Bahram looked at Hayes's arm. He thought that the company commander was just missing an eye, but then he realized that the other person was also missing a hand, so he nodded slightly.
"Yes, you should have this kind of ambition, Abu Bakari 310th Infantry Regiment. It stands to reason that you were part of the battle group under the command of the Arash Chapter Commander at that time?"
Hayes nodded vigorously.
"Yes, yes, sir! I even took a photo with Chapter Master Arash!"
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
Hayes then ran to his backpack and dug out a small box from the inside. Inside was a neatly folded piece of paper. After opening it, he could see a somewhat blurry photo printed on the paper. It should be from Cut out from a newspaper.
“Sir, look!”
Bahram took the piece of paper handed over by Hayes and saw Arash taking a photo with a group of mortal officers, but.
< br>"Uh, are you in here?"
Hayes quickly stood on tiptoe and pointed at the dough flag.
"Sir, this is me."
Bahram blinked, and he finally understood that the flag was actually "floating" in the air. Due to the blurry quality of the picture, he could not see the person holding it. The little hand on the flagpole means that there is indeed a person behind the regimental flag.
“I see, hey, why don’t you install mechanical prosthetic eyes? I remember that there is a provision for officers and soldiers to serve for a certain period of time. If there is a physical disability, whether it is caused in combat or not, they can enjoy free mechanical prosthetics. Transplantation service."
Hayes smiled sheepishly, then pulled off the eyepatch to reveal the mechanical prosthetic eye inside.
“This eye mask is mainly used to prevent dust. Prosthetic eyes are very expensive and I’m afraid they will get dirty.”
The answer amused Bahram, but then Hayes asked a question.
"Sir, are you here to inspect alone?"
"I am here to understand everyone's situation, and no one else is here to understand everyone's situation. Of course it is me alone."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.
"My name is Bahram, Captain of the Tenth Company of the Astral Knights Chapter. Thank you, Captain Hayes, for the interesting stories you shared. I am very honored to be able to fight alongside you."
Looking at Bahram's hand, Hayes hesitated for a moment and carefully grasped the other person's fingers.
“We are also very honored to have a commander like you.”
After putting down his hand, Bahram glanced at the other people in the Hayes Company and said:
"The soldiers in your company are very young."
"Yes, sir, our company is mainly recruits." "Leaving so far from home and fighting in a completely unfamiliar place, soldiers Do you feel homesick on weekdays? ”
Before Hayes could speak, little Feiton had the courage to speak first.
"Sir! We are fighting for the Emperor and humanity! We will never waver for anything! We are also ready to sacrifice at any time!"
When he finished speaking, His whole body was shaking, after all, this was the first time in his life that he was talking to Astartes.
Hayes had a helpless expression on his face, while Bahram thought for a moment and encouraged:
"Every soldier needs to have the courage to sacrifice without fear, but the emperor is important, and the family is equally important. While destroying the enemy, try to protect yourself, because the emperor and your family are waiting for you to return home safely."
At this time, a voice came from Bahram's communicator. After he nodded, he turned around and left quickly, leaving behind the eyes of those who followed his back.
After a while, Little Feiton came to Hayes.
"Uncle, it turns out you were so awesome before! Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had a photo taken with the Chapter Commander? If the news spread, you could be a division commander, not to mention company commander!"
< br>As he spoke, he reached for the photo in Hayes' hand, but Hayes turned his back and folded the photo and put it back in the box.
"It's just a photo together, it's not a medal conferment, it's not that exaggerated. Besides, I don't care, you guys are exhausted. If you ask me to take care of a division, I would rather fight a Tyranid warrior insect in a duel. ”
Without getting the photo, Feiton could only shake his head, sit down, and pick up the water glass.
“Hey, uncle, Captain Bahram is quite a kind person. Are all Astartes like this?”
“Of course not, I can only say that this guy It's quite special. If you were to compare it to a more common Astartes, you would be scared to wet your pants at this stop! They always maintain a fighting posture and have a lot of murderous intent on their bodies. We are lucky to meet a good character! "
At this moment, a sharp alarm sounded suddenly, and Hayes immediately jumped up from the bench and shouted:
"Get ready to fight! Get ready to fight!!!"
"Chapter Commander, these are some things captured by the unmanned reconnaissance drones."
The temporary command post located in the main hall of Snow Palace Inside, the lights were brightly lit regardless of day or night. Mortal servants and mechanical priests were busy in front of various equipment and meditators. The officers looked at the battle reports and quickly gave corresponding summaries. Aspen, wearing armor of various colors, Tate comes in and out, but at the heart of the place is one man.
Hearing Mark's words, Soshyan nodded and turned to look at the screen on one side.
In the slightly trembling picture, a bloated thing composed of chitin, chimneys, tentacles, and spikes appeared. It looked like a huge ant nest, covered with dense ants. The holes are surrounded by balloon-like spore mines. If you look closely, you will find that the holes are like the pores of the human body, which will continue to shrink and expand. At the same time, with every contraction and expansion, various Terran creatures They will emerge from it with the wet remnants of the fleshy membrane and gather into the endless sea of insects.
And when the camera is zoomed up, you can see that the actual size of this thing is very huge, it is completely a fortress, and the surrounding ground has been covered with purple mucus, and there are countless lotus hole-like crypts.
“This is.”
Alash, who was checking the battle report, was also attracted by this picture and walked to Soshyan.
“Is this some kind of building?”
“It can be said to be, but not completely, because it is alive.”
Soshiyang stared at this thing and said slowly:
"If you guessed correctly, this should be the incubation nest that the Tyranids put on the ground. It is also the fortress where they attack from the ground. It knows how to attack quickly. If they don’t let us down, they will resort to a war of attrition. I don’t know whether to call it smart or stupid.”
