Chapter 263 Alpha Level
After experiencing war, virus, death and defense, many mortals crawling on the front line are now facing storms and cruel spirits. The rainstorms are constantly hitting the green helmets of those poor people, and even the largest raindrops can make mortals' heads sink.
Their emperor can protect them. Spells and witchcraft sing together. The power of the Chaos Gods is unstoppable.
The telekinesis rolls up the storm, gathers wind and air, and carries magic and lightning around its edges, which is enough to tear apart the strongest fortress. The Star Language Fortress is in danger.
Many fortresses were uprooted. Even fully staffed Chimera armored vehicles or Lemanus were overturned just by touching the weak edge of the wind. As one of the biggest threats to the human empire, the power of the Alpha-class spirits even exceeds that of many heretic mortal armies.
The heavy rain brought mud, until the metal ground that was originally not convenient for trench digging and was broken by heavy equipment revealed the mud that was enriched with heavy metals for hundreds of years. Like the resentful spirits of the dead, it pressed the bodies of the Imperial Guard soldiers tightly, and the same was true for chariots, tanks, engines or heavy machinery.
The body of the vehicle was buzzing and roaring, but the burning engine could not pull its huge metal body out of the mud with tracks. Things that usually worked hard and did not complain, now erupted in the rain of heresy with extraordinary violence.
The spirit storm continued to abuse, it had divided the battlefield into two sections, allowing its strong wind to hinder the engine and the mud to make mortals lose their combat effectiveness, while leaving many evil troops to mishandle the exhausted Space Marines.
But even so, Ed. Von. Ka was still not satisfied. Dozens of heavy weapon teams were providing support for the Chaos Wizard, and about 500 meters in front of him was the wizard who exerted all his strength.
He was already floating in the air due to the strong static electricity of the spirit, three meters above the ground. Countless mortal troops were staggered to provide him with enough physical cover, but the 500 meters around him was still a prohibited area. No one was allowed to approach, lest they be torn into pitiful flesh by the overflowing telekinesis.
The wizard's pupils were now completely blue, and his pure red hair was not because of his age, but because of the irreversible corruption of the warp. His lavender robe was swaying in the windless air. The bones and crystals in his legs formed a complex clock instrument. The long pole was used as a focus of spirit to assist the use of witchcraft, and it also represented his extremely high status.
The pathetic guy pressed his head with his right leg, and the spirit brought the reality of the physical world into a strange light blue lightning, and the power lifted him off the ground. It was not because he liked it, but because of the curse that the Chaos Warp must bear, so that he could not move and was fully focused on the spirit.
Although his spirit could tear the battle line and reverse the situation, Ed von Ka did not like this situation. The main reason was that the storm could not completely change the situation. After the spirit storm dispersed, the muddy ground was not easy to march, and it would delay the war.
This was the first time he felt that his mortal body was so powerless. His family honor, blood and many other things could not affect the situation at all, while the old man with a red head could rely on his spirit storm to show off his power.
Why? Because he was a wizard? He only looked at the spirit talent, which was indeed much better than Caster, but the guy's bad mental problems made his spirit extremely lack of control. That madman who had been wanted by the Imperial Inquisitor for more than ten years could turn himself into a family that existed in the ancient Terra era in Engili?
That dissatisfaction made Ed von Ka vaguely look forward to the wizard's failure. Since the gods had allowed the Space Marines to come, he had failed. Compared with the wizard gaining the trust of many warriors, he hoped to fail more.
Anyway, he is in a high position, and his family is powerful enough to protect him, and the ones who suffer and are punished are only the many officers of Yudong...
The orbital defense system of that world is firmly controlled by the rebels, which makes Ed. Von. Ka fearless. If they are the kings who hold the seal of power and firmly hold that world, then for him, the most severe thing is not to get the Startalker and be taught a lesson.
Compared with the unity of the Sky Eagle, Chaos is powerful but full of problems. Their mortal believers fight for power and the constant conflicts among the four Chaos Gods also vaguely maintain the poor and sad peace of that universe.
Just like the weak and pathetic balance, the hope of that battlefield also lies in the balance that people have always ignored. In the Star Tongue Fortress, the Chief Star Tongue brought four prophets who were alive and tested by the Emperor's spirit. They were dressed in complicated golden silk robes and held various instruments, lamps, triangular instruments, and even Emperor Tarot, but they basically had the meaning of guidance.
Even if their eye masks were burned by the Emperor's light and became a terrible red appearance, their essence was the person who could see the farthest in the dark universe. They were not protected, but needed time, a time to break the curse of chaos.
Shenhuang looked at this place weakly. In the gray luminous ball, the incense was spitting out thick mist. The precious gems were beaten into powder by the servants. Then the Chief Star Tongue slowly drew the whole gorgeous silver sun on the ground with the position that could not be deviated at all. The red and silver gems turned into the lifelike silver sun, which also represented the greatest blessing that the Star Tongue could make for the bright battle situation.
The Chief Star Tongue muttered. "The evil demons are wreaking havoc, how heartbreaking. The war artillery and the others can't help, and they have done their best to guide them. They should have left it to fate, but the Emperor Huangque led them to break the law of confusion, allowing the heretics to come to an end!"
Although they were blind and deaf, Ling Ke helped them travel in the light and vastness that mortals could not see. The grace of the Emperor of God gave them countless treatments beyond mortals, honors, gifts, loyalty, strong will, soul, and gathered strength for those selected from a billion miles away.
24 months ago, the biggest spell of Ming, and a nightmare that could ease the war situation, they stood in a circle around the star, with complex prayers mixed in. Ling Ke, but different from the warp chaos wizard, came bright and gentle, the light of the empire was scattered on the ground, shining through the lens of the Star Language Fortress, and at this moment it just hit the eye of the storm.
In the extremely accurate prediction and the East of the Emperor Huangque, the lens shone the light into the whirlwind, and Ling Ke's power collapsed as if it had encountered a natural enemy, revealing the terrible eye of the storm composed of Ling Ke's telekinesis, trying to defeat it.
The sudden change made the Imperial Guards look up, the Space Marines shouted, and the Emperor's divine light, like the legendary divine spear, pierced the nightmare of the Alpha-level Psychic.
The original 500-meter huge Psychic load range of the Chaos Wizard was expanded again, and the huge static current suddenly engulfed the nearby liquid plateau. The dozens of heavy weapon groups guarding him were suddenly submerged by Psychic, and the blue arc crackled. The wizard's terrible roar echoed with chaotic Psychic, like a roaring evil spirit.
The heavy guns suddenly exploded, and then the flesh of the mortals began to fester. When thousands of people discovered the occurrence of that thing, death had already come around. That was the gift of the Warp to mankind, the blessing of Psychic, and it became a desperate criminal to take his life.
"Retreat, retreat!" Perhaps Ed von Ka was blessed by his family bloodline as he said. At such a critical moment, he was on the verge of spiritual energy decay, so he escaped. But when the soldiers around him suddenly exploded and died of severe burns, the sensitive general immediately begged to retreat.
Perhaps the soul of Caster's loyal servant really protected his master. The spiritual energy did not spread to hurt Ed von Ka, so that his cavalry, a reconnaissance tank, could quickly withdraw from the danger zone, because even the war engine would be steamed by the spiritual energy on the outside of the crew!
At this moment, the war lord had not felt his heart beat so fast for a long time. The mysterious and irresistible oppression was like a natural punishment, making him feel a threat and fear that was more frightening than the Space Marines.
"That bastard!" "Sniper leg!" He wanted to retaliate, but suddenly stopped. He couldn't bear the responsibility of killing the spirit, which would make him "bad", but he didn't want that guy to tear a gap in the subspace or lead a demon into the real world.
"Damn it, it's good that Kaster is here!" He couldn't help but miss his adjutant. With the help of the spirit and the problem of mishandling the subspace, even the Chaos believers would be nervous. Although he didn't have much affection for him, he had to admit that an Alpha-level wizard who was smart and mentally stable by the imperial standard was rare.
Various complex situations gathered here, and human nature was to seek benefits and avoid harm. Soon, he spoke. "Retreat!"
The losses in that war were too great. They had to adjust the situation, and there were many places in that world with many resources to be exploited. It was not worth it to fight to the end with a star language fortress.
The benefits and losses were inversely proportional, and the rebels began to retreat. The Chaos wizard who was attacked by the backlash of the spirit was not crazy. Instead, he relied on his strong will to fight with the astropaths. The power of the warp wrapped the spirit and relied on the Emperor's light as a channel to approach the protected souls of the astropaths.
Their spell was dangerous. The strength of the astropath did not determine the strength of the spirit, but stability and advance. If the astropath was attacked by the backlash of the spirit, the defense of the astropathic fortress would fail.
The light of the spirit made the muddy ground crack like a miracle. The Imperial Guards or Space Marines who crawled out of the struggle were all looking at the strong light in the sky in surprise. How to balance the storm.
When almost everyone believed that the Empire's astropaths had won, a quick communication came from the radio of the Imperial Guard. The woman with a hurried voice called herself the astropath's attendant and emphasized that in the psychic battle, the astropath had actually fallen to the east.
The commander of the 154th Infantry Regiment of the Empire Loand cursed. "Which heretic invaded their radio station! The Emperor is here!"
Even if Lieutenant Fitzgerald thought that the incident was just a conspiracy and nonsense of the enemy, the Master Chief looked at the illusory mistake in the sky and remained in a daze for a long time.
His injured leg was temporarily removed from the shell of the power armor, and instead it was wrapped in a cold medical compress, which injected stimulant nutrients and muscle stimulants into the leg to help recovery.
The Master Chief ignored the uncomfortable stinging, took off his helmet, and shouted to the radio team. "He doesn't understand those witchcrafts, but he can feel that the astropaths are indeed not optimistic."
Space Marines are not as religious as most of the Empire's servants. Usually, they do not worship the Emperor as a god, or pray to Him directly.
However, they still have a deep spiritual existence to a certain extent, respecting their Primarch and the Emperor, and drawing strength from their example.
And the Master Chief, amidst the questioning voices of many soldiers, asked his own secrets how he would deal with the dark universe if the Emperor or the Primarch were in trouble like he was.
He let out a long sigh. "His brother, that universe is full of conspiracies and intrigues. He knows it very well and has even tasted it several times himself, but he will not fear anything. Even if the God of Conspiracy and Intrigue shows its power in front of him, it is not the filthy witchcraft."
"Remember, they are the people of the Emperor, remember, only by dying can they live, remember, the eagle spreads its wings, remember, it is the Emperor, it is the Emperor!"
"He will not let go of hope, they will not let go of victory. If the Astropath is really in danger, then their inaction will betray the creed of the Chapter and give up victory."
"Therefore, he will lead the team again, bring the honor of the Emperor, and give true light to that world. Brothers, he has been seriously injured, but he knows that victory and hope are not in retreat, but in attack."
Jesk shouted in the captain, "He does not agree, sir! I will die. The enemy is surrounding their base, There are thousands and thousands of enemies, victory may not be where, but death is certain. His angel, don't ask for the past! "
"I am giving up their sacrifice and efforts. He doesn't hate my choice, nor does he think there is something wrong with the culture of the regiment. I can kill him, the mortal, with one punch, but no..."
"They will cost me half of the remaining hundreds of brothers, several Lemanus, countless Chimera armored vehicles, and put the things that have been preserved into it. My lord, he hopes that I will think twice..."
The sergeant looked at the mortal who was "talking nonsense" and questioning his judgment, but he couldn't get angry. He also knew that the mortal had put death aside. Now he had in his eyes whether the world invaded by heretics could comfort and survive the disaster...
He was a great man, just like his behavior, loyal and strong, but now, his brothers were almost crying?
But things cannot be changed. The sergeant was still firm and far-sighted. He was not the only one who put death aside, so he explained to him. "As I said, there is only one thing he is doing now, and that is to lead us to victory!"
"Believe in him, just as we rushed into that hell and gave everything, he also has a mission given to him by the Emperor."
When the captain stopped talking, he crossed his arms and legs over his chest, made the Imperial Sky Eagle gesture, and tacitly accepted the Eagle's decision...
