Chapter 483 The Situation Is Chaotic "Brother, Don't Hide It"
Boom--boom--! ! !
As the deafening explosion sounded throughout the entire block, the air seemed to be torn apart in an instant, and the shock wave destroyed everything around like the collapse of the sky and the earth.
The Titan mecha completely disintegrated the Emperor's Children's defense line on this main road, and the dust and ruins raised made the area fall into a dead silence.
The Emperor's Children's vulnerable Chaos believers and demonic creatures were completely annihilated under this devastating blow.
Even Lucius and his thousand-year-old veteran subordinates disappeared without a trace under this blow.
It seems that because of the arrival of the Titan mecha and the follow-up troops of the 2nd Company of the Sons of Man, they chose to abandon the original invasion plan and fled madly to their "hometown".
"."
But the captain of the 2nd Company, Sol Tarvitz, did not feel relaxed at all because of Lucius's evacuation.
After all, the "Great Demon" that looked like their original body was still wreaking havoc in the central square of New Argo, about four kilometers north of their location.
Tarvitz carefully observed the dynamics of the entire battlefield through the real-time feedback on the helmet screen.
The shared perspective provided by drones and aerial vehicles allowed him to fully grasp the surrounding battle situation.
The situation in the central square became more and more complicated. The Chaos Space Marines that emerged from the warp were wearing corrupted heavy armor and exuding the breath of evil and madness.
They were intertwined with the surrounding deformed creatures, like an unstoppable demon army.
Compared with the enemies just repelled, the powerful strength and combat experience shown by those Chaos Space Marines far exceeded any of the scum they had just faced.
As soon as the change occurred in New Argo, the 2nd Fleet, which was parked in the low-Earth orbit of the Star of Plenty, quickly launched an emergency deployment.
Tarvitz airdropped the 2nd and 3rd assault platoons, as well as the ODST (Hell Paratroopers) and elite veterans on board into the city. Their destination was the "pillar of light" that went straight to the sky, which was also the source of the Chaos invasion.
Then, Tarvitz arranged a large number of transport formations to provide sufficient troops to the 2nd and 3rd assault platoons.
The Sons of Man who are now in the central square and responsible for curbing the erosion of Chaos and evacuating the masses are the 2nd assault platoon.
In order to enhance the defense capability, the 2nd assault platoon also received support from two knight mechas, as well as more than 10,000 auxiliary troops and various mechanical and biological weapons.
But compared with the "big demon", these forces seem insignificant.
At this time, Tarvitz saw that the "big demon" was getting closer and closer to the position of the 2nd assault platoon. He knew that the current situation had become extremely critical. If he did not make adjustments in time, the consequences would be disastrous.
Then he immediately opened the communication and ordered: "Rilano! What are you doing? Evacuate quickly! Don't engage in direct confrontation with the big demon!"
As soon as Tarvitz finished speaking, a noisy noise came from the other end of the communication channel, mixed with irregular gunshots.
A few seconds later, the voice of the 2nd Assault Platoon leader named Rilano finally penetrated the noise, and it seemed extremely urgent:
"We. Bang-bang! We have more than 100,000 people here who need to evacuate. We can't accept evacuation."
Rilano's voice was difficult and anxious, and his words revealed a strong sense of helplessness.
The chaos of the battlefield and the fluctuations of chaotic psychic energy have seriously interfered with the communication. The signal is intermittent and it is difficult to capture clear content.
The explosions, gunshots and bursting sparks in the background are all telling the dilemma faced by the 2nd Assault Platoon.
As large-scale chaos poured into the central square, the 2nd Assault Platoon is facing unprecedented pressure.
With the help of the bird's-eye view sent back by the drone, Tarvitz could see that the 2nd Assault Platoon and the accompanying auxiliary troops were doing their best to cover the evacuation of civilians.
Escape passages were opened up one after another at the connection points of subway stations and underground shelters, and dense crowds of people rushed to the safe area like a tide.
Seeing this scene, Tarvitz understood that when New Argo was attacked by Chaos, the citizens who were relaxing, entertaining and strolling in the center of the city naturally chose to go to the nearest underground shelter.
However, this ordinary shelter mode is obviously unable to cope with the special threat of Chaos.
Their attack methods are far beyond the scope of understanding of the physical universe.
The solid shelters and heavy protective doors are nothing more than fragile barriers in their eyes. Whether it is the fallen Emperor's children or those deformed Chaos creatures, they can easily destroy and infiltrate these seemingly safe shelters.
And no matter how tenaciously the Sons of Man defend, they can't match the Chaos wave after all, especially when facing the "big devil", the pressure is doubled.
The "big demon" was huge and powerful, and every time it moved forward, it was accompanied by a destructive energy impact.
Even so, it did not seem to speed up its "pace".
No, to be more precise, it did not seem to speed up the idea of twisting and crawling, but was also enjoying the anxiety, fear, despair and other negative emotions of the 2nd Assault Platoon and the people.
It approached the position of the 2nd Assault Platoon like the arrival of the god of death, and the surrounding Chaos creatures and the Emperor's Children became more fanatical because of its existence.
As the most core threat on the battlefield, it not only overwhelmed the entire field, but the Chaos Psychic Energy it released also interfered with the communication and command system of the Children of Mankind, making the originally tense battle situation even more chaotic.
Faced with this catastrophe, Tarvitz was right to order the company to avoid direct confrontation with the "Great Demon".
After all, any direct confrontation would only lead to the collapse of the entire army.
But as a commander, a warrior serving the Emperor and the Empire, he knew that the 2nd Assault Platoon, also a Son of Man, would never abandon those innocent civilians.
Even if the enemy in front of them was extremely powerful, those unarmed civilians were still the ones they had to protect.
In response, Tarvitz took a deep breath, opened the communication channel again, and decisively ordered:
"Titan mechas rush to the central square immediately, and all company guards immediately follow me to support! Be sure to evacuate all civilians as safely as possible before the main force arrives!"
His voice was sonorous and powerful, with unquestionable firmness.
As for life and death?
Tarvitz and all the Sons of Man had already put this issue behind them.
From the outbreak of the Chaos invasion to the present, the 2nd Company's combat power has lost more than half, and every charge and every defense is to fight against the Chaos forces at the cost of life.
The Primarch, who was originally at the other end of the Harvest Planet, still needed about ten minutes to reach the battlefield, while the battle of New Argo had completely entered a white-hot stage.
Faced with an endless tide of enemies, the soldiers of the 2nd Assault Platoon had no time to pay attention to the orders to retreat or avoid the battle. All their attention was focused on the task of rescuing and protecting civilians.
In the interweaving of artillery fire and chaotic psychic energy, the Astartes, ODST, auxiliary troops, elite veterans, and subhuman soldiers cooperated tacitly and built a line of defense with their flesh and blood.
Even though the enemy's numbers were overwhelming and the pressure brought by the "Great Demon" was suffocating, they still did not retreat.
For these soldiers, protecting civilians is a higher belief than their own lives.
Every soldier in the Imperial Army knows that whether it is the Astartes, ODST or other elite troops, from the perspective of military value alone, it is obviously much more important than ordinary unarmed citizens.
However, in the concept of the Prime Universe Empire, the lives and souls of human compatriots are priceless.
Regardless of the abilities of these civilians, they carry the future and hope of mankind.
This concept is deeply rooted in the hearts of every soldier, so that they will not hesitate to stand in front of civilians when faced with a situation where they are sure to die.
——
At the same time, sandwiched between the defensive line of the 2nd assault platoon and the charge of the chaotic forces, on this side of the commercial entertainment street;
Boom. Boom
Bang..Bang
The sound of gunfire and explosions from all directions came one after another.
The smoke was filled here, and it was filled with the smell of burning gunpowder, mixed with a pungent "smelly" smell.
The aftermath of the explosion left shocking cracks on the street, and the fierce battle destroyed everything around, and the surface and road surface seemed to be torn apart and devastated.
Where is the current commercial entertainment street, where is the prosperity and stability of the past? Instead, it has fallen into a hellish ruin, with only ruins and chaos left.
The towering giant building collapsed and turned into a burning ruin, and the broken steel bars twisted in the flames.
Check out the correct version on 16-9 Book Bar!
The outer walls of the large shopping malls are full of bullet holes and broken marks, and the shelves inside have long been scattered and filled with ashes.
Those shops that were once full of dazzling goods are now only "completely broken" ruins.
The most important thing is that there are almost no traces of survivors in this area, but it is full of a large number of lone Chaos creatures, heretics, and fallen children of the emperor.
They wander among the ruins like hungry hounds, looking for lives that have not been completely slaughtered.
This place has completely become a hellish scene, not only because of fighting, ruin and chaos, but also because of the crazy "indulgence" and atrocities of Chaos.
On the streets, you can occasionally see those captured citizens, whose fate is more tragic than death.
Those who believe in the evil gods of Chaos will torture these innocent people in the most blasphemous and twisted ways.
The Emperor's Children would use cruel means to cut the bodies of citizens, cut out their reproductive organs and genitals, and inject corrupting agents to maintain their vitality.
Citizens who lost their important organs were not relieved, but were forced to struggle in extreme pain and fear to satisfy the Emperor's Children's endless greed for extreme emotions.
Whether it is the main universe or the Astartes in "Warhammer 40k", they can almost be called "sexually indifferent".
Of course, this is not that the Astartes have lost their fertility, but simply can "control" to avoid being disturbed by those emotions from physiological reactions.
But the Astartes who fell into chaos and chose to betray have all kinds of desires.
They will naturally satisfy and please themselves and the evil gods they serve in their own preferred means.
The screams of these victims echoed in the empty streets, becoming a witness to the misfortune here.
The remaining buildings among the ruins looked like twisted monsters under the light and shadows, and the Chaos creatures, heretics and Emperor's children in them made the area full of despair.
The commercial and entertainment streets no longer had the bright lights and revelry of the past, but turned into a doomsday catastrophe for the human spirit and body.
At this time, in a messy large shopping mall sky parking lot——
"Brother, don't waste time anymore. What's the point of hiding? We have seen through your little tricks a long time ago."
"Hand over those kids, and maybe we'll consider letting you die more easily."
"Hahaha, of course, you can also join us and ravage those little bastards. Once you taste them, you'll have an endless aftertaste."
The hoarse voice revealed a playful and nasal tone, and it echoed in the parking lot.
Three burly sons of the fallen emperor were seen pacing and searching in the abandoned parking lot.
Their faces, bodies, helmets, and armor were integrated into one, and even their jaws and cheekbones had sharp bone spurs and twisted tentacles, exuding a disgusting smell of corruption.
This parking lot was once a parking lot for civilian hovercrafts. It was usually busy with traffic, but now it was full of gloom and oppression.
Rows of hovercrafts were parked here quietly, and their surfaces were covered with dust and debris after the explosion.
Obviously, when the Chaos invasion occurred, many citizens hurriedly evacuated to the underground shelter before they had time to drive away their "cars".
As for the "brothers" mentioned by the three Emperor's Sons, that is, a sergeant of the Sons of Man, he was in a large utility room in this aerial parking lot.
The shutter door of the utility room was closed, and it was not very spacious inside. After all, it was packed full and looked extremely cramped.
Moreover, there was a group of children aged eleven or twelve in the utility room.
They were wearing school uniforms, and their faces were full of immaturity, fear and despair.
It seemed that they went to the mall to play together after school, but they happened to encounter the sudden invasion of Chaos forces.
And the state of this sergeant could be said to be precarious.
He should have been wearing a complete set of Sons of Man Titanium VI power armor, but the helmet had been severely damaged in the battle and was forced to be discarded.
His short silver hair was particularly eye-catching in the dim light, and his strong facial features were covered with blood.
There was a hideous scar on his brow bone. Although the wound had stopped bleeding, the dried blood covered the left half of his cheek, making him look even more embarrassed.
There was a shocking through wound on the right side of his chest armor, and the exposed armor fragments and dark red blood were particularly eye-catching.
Worse still, his power backpack had been completely destroyed, and he could only rely on the backup energy of the nano suit to maintain the operation of the power armor.
His breathing became heavy, and every rise and fall seemed extremely laborious, but his hands still did not tremble.
In addition, the most "embarrassing" thing was that all the ammunition on his body was emptied, leaving only a shock dagger and a chainsaw sword.
