Chapter 410: The Road to Expedition: The Promise of the Future

As the priest spoke, the melta gun behind him flashed, and the bright melta gun muzzle shot at him. Vito was startled and dodged to the side. The moment the melta shot past him, he pulled out the grenade launcher and fired at the melta gun.

The mechanical priest's eyes turned, and then he suddenly fired the melta gun on his shoulder. The bright fire shells shot at Vito, but they were scattered immediately after the latter waved his power claws. Vito raised his grenade launcher with his arm sideways and fired.

The whistling bomb instantly broke the connection part of the mechanical arm behind the priest, and the end of the melta gun suddenly broke and fell from the priest. The bomb exploded at close range and also shattered the side of the priest's face, blowing up the metal surface and the electrodes connected to it and flying away.

The priest hit the shield machine sideways, and at the same time, the priest's mind also issued an order to fire, and the program parameters were instantly transmitted to the minds of the surrounding servitors, and a simple behavioral signal was released at the neural control terminal implanted in the cerebral cortex.

The servitors pulled the triggers in their hands, and the industrial hot melt fire flow and high-temperature cutting laser guns all fired violently. The hot beams bombarded Vito's body, and the hot melt cannon hit the arm of the golden armor at once, and a flickering fire lit up in front of Vito's arm.

Hemer also returned to the servitor. Under his red robe that had been torn into several gaps, dozens of weapons were all stretched out. They were placed behind him and aimed at Vito and fired a barrage of bullets. Hot melt, plasma, heavy lasers and cutting rays hit Vito one after another.

He looked at Hemer in front of him under his arm. He knew that there was no way to talk about human feelings now. Everything could only happen as it should have. Loyalists and betrayers. What a ridiculous two words.

Vito strode forward, raised his arm to block in front of him, and rushed forward between the cutting beam and the hot melt. The industrial cutting rays that were enough to cut a Leman Russ main battle tank hit Vito's body, but they could not leave even a scratch. Vito rushed forward like lightning against the beam, and then swung out the power claw.

A blue lightning flashed on the golden power claw. Vito swung the claw blade violently, and the huge claw cut instantly hit the servitor in front of him. The servitor wearing only a pair of trousers was instantly torn into pieces. His long-dried flesh and blood instantly splashed around, and the yin-yang tubes and subcutaneous electrodes inserted in his abdomen exploded around.

Vito quickly turned to the side and swung out a claw again. The huge power claw quickly smashed another servitor on the side. The industrial hot melt gun in his hand was also smashed and exploded instantly. The high-temperature fire stream exploded instantly. Vito raised his claws to block in front of him, and the back of the claw blocked the incoming high-temperature fire stream.

The stream of fire slid over Vito's body and engulfed the other mechanical servants around him in the blink of an eye. They stood there firmly, and their long-shrunken bodies were instantly melted into a pile of debris under the hot melt explosion.

The stream of fire spread to the underground excavation site, and Vito stepped forward again at a faster speed. He waved his power claws and kept slashing among the mechanical servants. His burly body even knocked down a mechanical servant directly, and then stepped on it and crushed it.

Heimer looked at Vito who was rushing up, and the weapons behind him fired at Vito rapidly. Explosive energy, plasma and hot melt all hit Vito at once, but the latter rushed up against the firepower, strode to Heimer, grabbed him, grabbed several mechanical arms behind Heimer and suddenly pulled them off.

The mechanical arm was torn off from Heimer's back. Amid the shattering of steel and the spraying of parts, Vito looked at Heimer in front of him and threw all the mechanical arms in his hands away. "Let your servitor cease fire, priest, surrender, you still have a chance."

"Veto." Heimer said as he raised his palm. A launch port instantly popped out from his palm, and a blazing beam of light instantly shot out from it. Vito stepped back quickly and dodged the beam of light with his head back.

After he dodged, he punched Heimer almost instinctively, knocking the priest away and keeping a safe distance from him. The latter suddenly hit the rock wall on the side.

The priest raised his head and looked at Vito on the side. Half of his face had been blown off by the explosion of the close-range bomb. The entire mechanical eye body that was almost exposed to the outside was stuck and rotating. Sparks sprayed from the priest's face, making the whole smashed face look particularly terrible.

The priest scanned Vito and observed him. The power armor on Vito was completely beyond the priest's calculation. The golden armor seemed to be made of some special metal that the priest had never seen before. The industrial weapons that the priest prepared specifically for the servitors could easily dissolve the power armor of Astartes in previous experiments and then kill the body underneath.

But all these industrial weapons bombarded the golden armor, not to mention penetrating it, and even a scratch seemed to be unable to leave. The whole set of armor did not even fade under the fierce bombardment of the surrounding servitors.

Vito quickly swung his power claws and chopped in the servitor, and large pieces of debris kept flying around it, among which were countless flying broken arms, and Vito was among them.

Highmore analyzed Vito after a piece of metal and severed limbs were flying around, and quickly discovered an obvious weakness in him. He was not wearing a helmet, which meant that there was a fragile spot in the strong and indestructible power armor. Weak and unreliable flesh and blood parts.

Haimo quickly issued an order in his mind, and the short order was quickly transmitted to the servitor's nerve unit, and then quickly transmitted to the electrodes of the reaction nerves.

The servitors who were just standing around Vito started to fire at Vito. They walked towards Vito, firing continuously as they approached. They walked forward with stiff steps, and their movements Sluggish and sluggish, it takes almost no effort from Vito to destroy it.

Vito did indeed do the same. He raised his power claw and instantly cut off several approaching servitors, but the remaining servitors continued to approach without fear, as if they didn't care about being broken by Vito. , they kept approaching without fear, slowly but surely surrounding him from all directions.

The industrial hot melt that the servitors continuously bombarded began to fire near Vito's head, and he fired at a very close distance to ensure that the accuracy and power of the hit would not be reduced.

Vito turned his head to avoid the stream of molten fire that rubbed his ears. He was startled and took a few steps back. Then he quickly raised his hand in front of his face to block more molten cannons and servitors. They surrounded Vito, taking slow and stiff steps, but unswervingly, and blocked Vito in the corner of the shield machine with constant gunfire.

Vito smiled bitterly and leaned against the wall, raising his arms to block his head. His face felt the flames that were constantly bombarding his paws and smiled bitterly, "Now I know why Ryan's hair is so long, so I have to persist." Put on your helmet and go to war.”

"Back to Terra, I must ask Trajan to get me one, but now, Iyanna! BBQ!" Vito leaned against the wall and shouted loudly, and the moment he shouted, the shield above his head There was a sudden noise from the mechanism. The priest scanned the strange noise and captured the person falling from the rope from the imaging map.

Yiyanna, who suddenly jumped to the top of the shield machine, turned her staff and suddenly hit the two servitors who were standing on top of the shield machine with cutting ray guns aimed at Vito's head and fired. His face was shattered by the staff swung at high speed and he fell down.

Yiyanna turned the staff with both hands, stood on the shield machine and suddenly stuck it on the ground. She supported the staff and jumped up and kicked a machine servant in the face. He kicked out and hit the rock wall on the side.

The moment she held the staff and landed on the ground, she raised the staff in both hands and raised it high. The phoenix logo above the staff instantly released a dazzling fire, and then Yiyanna hit it all at once. On the ground in front of him, a sea of ​​fire was released from the end of the staff in an instant.

The pure fire poured down from the shield machine, quickly sweeping down from where Yiyanna was standing. After falling on the ground, it spread out from the entire ground instantly, and in the blink of an eye, the servitors and the standing fire were swept away. The priests behind the soulless servants were swallowed up, and they disappeared in the flames without letting out any screams of flesh and blood.

The high-temperature fire swept down from in front of Vito, and instantly sprayed from his side to the ground. He smiled bitterly and leaned against the wall. Then he stood up immediately after the flames rushed through, and patted out the burning hair around his ears, "Fuck!" It’s pretty good. Is it cooked to medium rare? I thought it would smell like meat after it’s cooked, but there’s still just a hint of rust and promethium fuel.”

Vito stood among the charred bones on the ground with his hands on his hips and said with a smile. Behind him, Yiyanna slid down from the shield machine whose surface was blackened by flames, "Can't you take care of them yourself? ? I have to solve everything?”

"Don't talk like an adult." "We are 127 years old, Vito. I am old enough for humans." "But for the Eldar, you are just a child who has just grown up, right?"

"By the way, you are already here. You haven't experienced an adventure like this for a long time since you returned to the Ark, right? I believe that the prophets and elders of the Ark will definitely not give you such a chance to have fun. Right? "Control your desires" is what they say?"

Vito pinched his voice and imitated the voices of the elders. He walked past Yiyanna and patted the back of the latter's head. Yiyanna touched the back of the head that was buckled down, her face full of smiles. A smile appeared after the irritation.

Vito walked through the charred bones piled up on the ground. He stepped over the piles of burnt servitors, the charred bones, the hoses connected to the body, and the piled up remains of metal skeletons implanted under the skin. passed.

Vito came to the side of the mechanical priest. He was not dead. It seemed that his whole body transformation had indeed played a big role. Since he was still alive under the fire of Iyana, this did prove in a sense that, The correctness of the teachings of the Mechanicus that flesh and blood are weak and machines are eternal.

But he is obviously not living very well. His entire body support structure has collapsed. The joint gel, spring transmission and other parts of the mechanical body have all disappeared. The entire steel skeleton body suddenly lost its support and collapsed. piled together on the ground.

Vito leaned over and looked at the priest on the ground. The latter also turned his head that was constantly stuck and slow to look over. The rotating gears on his neck kept clicking, and sparks were splashed in the difficult operation, and there were some small gears.

"You are very smart, priest. You can see that this is a weakness after just two glances. If you stay in the empire, you will definitely be an excellent ruling priest."

"I only want to explore this, the knowledge left by the Messiah of Ohm in the galaxy. The empire has constrained the development of civilization. It is slow, backward and ignorant. This empire has betrayed everyone."

The priest lay on the ground, turning his neck that was about to collapse and said. His entire face was almost disintegrated under the grenade gun and the burning of the fire. Small sparks jumped out from the cracks of the raised steel face, and the twisted gears were turning under it, causing the head to twitch and struggle constantly.

"I did not betray, but you betrayed the Emperor, the Messiah of Ohm, and all of us, deceiving, concealing, hiding knowledge, and watching humanity fall into infinite darkness of ignorance."

The priest's vocal cords popped out from his neck as he spoke. After the mechanical generator exploded, his voice twitched for a moment and then disappeared, leaving only the vague, distorted and meaningless white noise splashing from the jet of sparks.

He was dead, there was no cure. Vito didn't know how to fix him here, and there would be no cure above. There was only a melee there, and the war between the loyalists and the betrayers lasted for ten thousand years, but now, what is loyalty? Unconditional belief and obedience to the Emperor.

Or is it for the future of mankind, willing to do everything, even if everyone calls you a traitor? Vito didn't know. He thought he knew before, but now, he didn't know.

Behind Vito, Iyanna came up. She held the scepter and watched Vito stand up. He stood up beside the priest and raised the grenade launcher in his hand to his head. The muzzle was aimed at the almost collapsed face, and the twitching collapsed face also looked up at Vito.

"I can't deny what you said, priest, but the old night of ignorance has ushered in the dawn, and truth and ideals will once again shine into this dark galaxy. I promise you this. I'm sorry that you can't see the dawn above."

The priest looked up at Vito's face, his face twitched, his head suddenly turned to one side, the collapsed gear ejected from the neck, and his whole head suddenly broke and covered to one side, sparks kept flying out.

But his eyes were still looking at Vito, looking at him in the field of vision where there was already a garbled code and jumping interference ripples. Although his body had completely collapsed, I don't know if the priest who had been transformed would still feel pain, but the mechanical eyeball seemed to have suddenly ushered in a unique calmness.

"Goodbye, priest. I hope you will not go to the side of chaos after death, but return to where you should go. I hope you can get all forgiveness there."

"I hope you will also get forgiveness." The priest used the collapsed synthesized voice to squeeze out a few words, but Vito beside him smiled bitterly and shook his head gently.

"No, he and I will never be forgiven." Vito said and pulled the trigger. After the gunshot, the bullet shattered the priest's head, which was already in pieces. He exploded and returned to peace completely.

Iyana looked at Vito beside her. She pressed her hands on the staff and stared at him, "Are you pitying him? These traitors in your mouth?"

"We are all traitors, Iyana, but we betrayed different things." Vito said beside the wreckage of the priest. Iyana behind him looked at him and smiled softly. She looked around at the wreckage on the ground.

"You want to bring them salvation, all of them, Vito, these traitors, all the creatures in this galaxy, but do you think it's possible? Salvation? In this galaxy? What a luxury."

"Have you finally become a charlatan prophet?" Vito said as he put the grenade launcher back into the holster, and then he walked towards the entrance of the tunnel.

Iyanna looked at his back, the tall, golden back, where Iyanna's prophetic eyes saw two people, two people walking side by side towards the gate of destiny.

She looked silently at the end of the tunnel in the distance, where she saw a white light that swallowed everything. In that light, Iyanna wanted to find something, but she found nothing. Everything seemed to be submerged in the white flames.

She frowned slightly, looking at the prophetic scene brought by the prophetic eye, she turned her eyes to look at Vito's back, and after a moment of silence, she raised the staff in her hand and followed.

"I hope you know what you're doing with him again, Vito."

"I hope I know, too, Cortana."
