Chapter 61 First Battle
Outside the hive, high ground. The battle is about to start.
When the rotten corpses and giant monsters in sight dragged their corrupted and swollen bodies through the woods to the open space in front of the Grey Knights.
Without Galvin's order, the ten Grey Knights of the two interceptor teams took the lead in raising the storm bolters in their left hands and launched precise fire attacks on the enemies in front of them.
The interceptors skillfully maintained the established firepower density in stages to ensure that when the comrades who fired first in the predetermined period entered the reloading state, there would be no fatal firepower vacuum in the front line.
Their killing efficiency is extremely high, because the weapons they are equipped with - storm bolters with psychic channels after special modification, the attack on the enemy is far more than just the flesh.
When the firearms in the hands of the Grey Knights are shooting, the psychic bombs fired after their own psychic blessing can attack the opponent's flesh while ignoring the opponent's armor and directly attacking the target's soul.
By bypassing these tough or corrupted bodies and directly targeting the opponent's soul with an effective and fatal blow, these creatures in the subspace can quickly lose their anchor in the real world and roll back to their hometown.
Such guns may indeed sacrifice some of the power of physical destruction, but when they are facing a large number of low-level servants created by the pollution of Chaos, this efficient point-to-point killing of the soul will allow the Grey Knights' guns to achieve an extremely excellent killing cost-effectiveness.
Even larger or higher-ranked demons will fall under this short-term and high-density psychic attack when facing the saturation attack of such guns.
The corpses were easily swept away by the Grey Knights' precise point shooting, and a small number of giants also died halfway through the charge under the concentrated fire.
This low-intensity battle comparable to shooting training lasted only a few minutes before it was declared over.
Just as the Grey Knights were about to put down their guns, new enemies appeared.
"For the Lord of Corruption!" With a howl in the woods in the distance, more corpses and giants appeared at the edge of their sight. The leader was a huge monster over 4 meters tall. The huge and fat body was stretched to the limit with transparent skin, and maggots could even be seen swimming in the green muscles and yellow-brown fat that had rotted and suppurated under the skin.
It walked towards the high ground where the Grey Knights were, holding up the horn staff in its hand, chanting the holy name of the benevolent father Nurgle indistinctly. In order to pray for the power from the evil god.
At the same time, in the swamps and muddy ponds around the high ground where the Grey Knights stood, dense corpses stood up in response to the demon's call.
Their eye sockets were filled with mud and no eyeballs could be seen. Their mouths were so rotten that teeth could be seen through their cheeks. They also screamed blasphemous words, "For... the Lord of Corruption!"
The Grey Knights on the high ground began to shrink their formation. Calvin, who was standing in the center of the interceptor formation, reached out and tapped the communicator, saying to the two interceptor arbitrator brothers:
"We can't fight like this. We have limited time. We can't drag it on like this! From now on, you have to save ammunition and protect the flanks for both sides of us. As for the front, leave it to us."
The two arbitrators obviously saw this situation. After receiving Calvin's order, they immediately issued instructions in the communication channel. The interceptor team smoothly gave up the front fire line and focused on protecting the two wings.
After all the front fire was given up, Calvin took a deep breath. He looked around at the terminators on his left and right and said:
"Then, it's our turn to play next..."
Calvin began to mobilize his psychic power with all his strength and released the authority of the power of order.
The flame of order, which was originally quiet in the core of his soul, finally stopped suppressing the anger that he had deliberately suppressed since he arrived on this planet because he smelled the stench from chaos after getting Calvin's permission!
The flame glowed brightly the moment it got permission, and the color representing its temperature quickly changed from dim to hot!
The silver soft light used for disguise in the past was torn off in an instant, and the dazzling white-gold light representing judgment and the end began to light up.
Such light is so sacred, yet so cruel and cold.
All the pollution and filth in front of it will be exposed, and it is so undeniable and indisputable. There is only one ending waiting for them, that is, being completely purified.
And what is reflected externally is that Calvin's eyes began to radiate white-gold light, and the blue leaves on the magic ring on his forehead were dyed into sacred gold under the fluctuation of spiritual energy.
At this moment, Calvin briefly gave up his human side, and his human characteristics were swept away accordingly. He will embrace his mission wholeheartedly at this moment. Before giving the final judgment to these blasphemous things in front of him, he will no longer have any human emotions.
No mercy! Only anger! And it is not the anger of mortals! After his soul completely embraced order, what remained was only the cold anger that belonged to order!
Calvin raised his right hand, gently pointed to the sky, and then clenched it into a fist. A spiritual energy wave centered on him instantly swept across all the Terminators present.
The anchor points left in the minds of the comrades who had trained with him for many years instantly communicated their thoughts like a data protocol, and the psychic thought channel connected with all the Terminators.
"Link completed, first state, start." Calvin whispered softly.
Twelve pairs of eyes, twelve brains, twelve weapons, twelve angels of judgment from the Emperor, at this moment, became one.
The corpses and monsters from Chaos were already close at hand, but these Grey Knights seemed to be invisible.
The interceptor teams on both sides also gave absolute trust to the Terminators and continued to guard the two wings of the Terminators with concentration.
The twelve Terminators uniformly stationed their weapons with both hands, knelt on one knee, and lowered their heads. They prayed to the God-Emperor far away on Terra before the battle.
Their uniform movements may be no different from the tacit understanding cultivated by other Astartes through long-term rituals in the eyes of mortals.
But in the eyes of the Grey Knights Interceptors, who are also Astartes, their dynamic vision far surpassing that of ordinary people allows them to capture more amazing details in addition to combat.
Especially in the eyes of the two arbitrators of the squad's commander, this millisecond-level synchronization is definitely not something that can be achieved through training.
There must be some equipment that they don't know about that has begun to be experimentally equipped.
And this squad with a higher level of secrecy that they have never heard of is obviously an experimental unit for this equipment.
The process of silently reciting the prayer is very fast. After a short prayer, the Grey Knight Calvin, who is at the front of the team and the tallest, stood up.
He looked at the monsters down the slope that were so close that he could already smell the stench, raised the greatsword in his hand, turned around and shouted loudly to his comrades behind him:
"We are hammer!" Then he jumped down and started his first killing.
And the Terminators behind him, who were of the same body and mind as him, also followed Calvin's spiritual guidance and call.
While they were holding their weapons tightly and following Calvin to charge at the enemy, they shouted the same but different war cry:
"For the Emperor! And the Holy Titan Lord!"
Hi! It's on the shelves! Xiaoqianqian! Happy! Thanks for the support of my brothers! I will try to write another chapter tonight!
By the way, is there really an author on Qidian who is more shameful than me, who only updates twice after the book is on the shelves?
