Hammer 40k: Far East Storm

Chapter 137 The Original Plan (1/2)

Looking at the simple-looking orc, Virgil sighed. He didn't listen to a word about surrender. All he could think about was the magical habits of magical creatures like orcs. In the end, he reluctantly chose to believe for the time being. Just like simple farmers can always deceive smart people, green skinned people with simple brains also give Virgil a strange sense of trust. **Bubble! Book. Right* But this kind of trust is not a good thing. At this moment, an inexplicable power emerged from the deepest part of the Black Knight's body, giving him the urge to stab this disgusting green-skinned one to death. 'Drain your blood all at once and see how you come here once a month! ’. But he is on a mission now. He is no longer the Black Knight he once was, and he cannot follow his own temper.

Virgil spent a lot of effort to suppress this impulse, and then he said with a forced smile: "Let me tell you a fact, in fact, I only used one-tenth of my strength just now! I just want to give you a try The power, unfortunately, is really far behind compared to me.”

"Little shrimp, big liar!"

"You don't believe me? Hum, it doesn't matter, I can prove it to you!" With that said, Virgil's body suddenly became transparent, and he disappeared into the air as if he melted into the air. He fell into the air and was dumbfounded as he slashed and slashed wildly. What kind of magic was this? Did the little shrimp kill himself?

"Xiao Xiami?" Green Skin asked tentatively in a low voice, "Missed? Ran away?"

"Humph." A chuckle came from the place where Virgil had just stood, but there was obviously nothing there. No, if you look very hard and carefully, you can still barely see a vague and transparent shadow. "I've been standing here without moving," the Black Knight said as he appeared from the void. "Did you see that this is an invisible magic that can make you disappear? It takes a lot of effort. , now you understand, it is really easy for me to crush you to death, you can only continue for three days and three nights, but I can continue for ten days and ten nights, why don't you just surrender?"

Goldman in the distance heard all this from the communicator. He curled his lips, three days and three nights? Ten days and ten nights? These two guys are really good at bragging. If they can't fight anymore, why don't they start a bluffing match? These two guys are both action-minded. They probably exhausted all their strength and couldn't fight anymore. They started to bluff, and they must have been afraid.

But Kuangzaizhan didn't know that Vergil was just bragging, and he didn't know that Vergil's invisibility was not based on any energy-consuming magic at all, but was just a self-contained battery in the battle suit.

The orcs only think that the human shrimps are so awesome!

Xiao Xiami still persisted for ten days and ten nights! ? Ten days and ten nights! The beast's body was slashed and violently shaken! He first wanted to choose not to believe it, but the facts were in front of him and he couldn't help but not believe it. Xiao Xiami just performed magic. You must know that even the orc shaman's magic will consume a lot of WAAAGH and strength. When the shaman and psychic boys are not full, they will not be able to fart even if they barely let it out. Farts don’t stink either!

What to do? Kuang Zaizhai was a little panicked. Xiao Xiami could still hold on for ten days, but Kuang Zazai knew that he might not be able to hold on for ten minutes. Was he going to be chopped into pieces by this little shrimp here?

Otherwise, surrender?

This was what he was thinking in his heart, but the righteous words came out from Kuang Zazai's mouth, "There are only orcs who die, there are no orcs who surrender! Kuang Zazai will never surrender, and Kuang Zazai will never fail!"

"Oh, then it's as you wish." As Virgil said, he raised his sword, took a few steps, and almost in the blink of an eye he jumped in front of the man who was slashing wildly.

During the previous conversation, Virgil had been using his long sword as a crutch, adjusting his whole body's breathing to relax his body and regain his strength as quickly as possible. At this time, Virgil couldn't help but want to sigh. It is so powerful that what Captain Li teaches is not too advanced theory or complicated and fancy skills. Many of the things are seemingly very simple or even very basic skills, and the names are also very simple, such as " "Observation method", "breathing technique", "flexible pace", but only in this life-and-death struggle can we discover the preciousness of these techniques. No matter which technique is, it is very practical and easy to use. Gil even felt that if he were still in his own medieval world, any skill he acquired would be enough for the nobles to regard it as a "magic skill" or a "secret skill" and pass it on from generation to generation.

Virgil was able to recover and rest to a certain extent through breathing, but his frantic slashing was unable to stop the bleeding wound, let alone restore the lost blood instantly. And even if Crazy Slash can do it, he won't do it in front of Virgil. After all, the big words have been spoken. Shedding such a little blood is nothing to Crazy Slash. It must be done no matter what. Hold on!

So in the process of talking, Kuang Zazai kept losing blood. When Vergil took a few steps and walked up to Kuang Zazai with his sword, he only had time to make a sound, "Huh?" Then the orc Their bodies reacted faster than their brains, and they slashed wildly with the machete towards Vergil's neck.

But Virgil seemed to have anticipated the orc's reaction. The black knight ducked to avoid the attack of the machete, and at the same time, he slashed horizontally with his long sword, cleanly cutting off a calf that was slashed like a tree. .

"Ouch, Brother Go, I'm going to be killed!" Kuangzhanzhai screamed, unable to stand anymore, and could only fall to the ground.

The Black Knight took two steps back and said to the communicator: "Goldman, okay, you can come out now. Bring a pack of hemostatic agent to stop the bleeding of our prisoner. If he dies due to excessive blood loss, That would be bad.”

"Understood." After a while, Goldman appeared in front of Virgil, and the green-skinned orc was lying beside him, groaning.

"Start working now?"

"Don't delay. I'll be heartbroken if something happens."

"Okay." Goldman nodded, raised his gun and fired three bullets at the orc.

The orc's voice stopped suddenly, and then he let out a rumble of snores.

This time Goldman shot a powerful sleeping bomb that he had already prepared. Only one was enough to put an elephant to sleep for a whole day. Since he was not familiar with green-skinned creatures, Goldman took action. Just three pills, guaranteed to give the orc a good night's sleep.

Virgil went directly to sniper position No. 5. He needed to take a good rest while being on guard.

Goldman skillfully started to stop the orc's bleeding, and used a dagger to cut off the tendons of the green-skinned hands and feet, making the orc a completely harmless animal. Finally, he used a special leather rope to kill the strong orc. The orcs were tied up. After doing this, he rolled out a crude homemade wheelbarrow from the secret hiding place and put the packed chops on the wheelbarrow.

"Captain, it's done," Goldman said over the communicator: "Do we still have time?"

"No problem, it's safe. I chose this place carefully. As long as I don't drop a big bomb, the outside world won't know what's happening in the valley."

"Okay, the last step is to eliminate the roots." Goldman muttered while finding dozens of phosphorus powder grenades. Each orc corpse was assigned a phosphorus powder grenade and set the timer. After setting the fuse, Goldman pushed the wheelbarrow and disappeared into the valley.

When the white flames burned in the valley, Virgil and Goldman had already brought Kuangzhao to an underground air defense bunker.

As soon as he entered the underground air raid bunker, Virgil smelled a rotten smell.

"What does this smell like?"

"It smells like bananas. Of course, they are all rotten," Goldman said. "This is an ancient air defense bunker. I can't tell how old it is, but no one regards this as an air raid bunker." Use it, because there are no enemies at all." At this point, Goldman laughed, "You know? In fact, I thought so before, whether it is joining the army, becoming an excellent special warrior, or When it comes to joining the Templars in the end, I just want to prove that I am the best. As for enemies? Do they have them? Maybe they do, but even if they do, they are far away on the other side of the starry sky, at least we don't have them on Reach. Enemies and wars are out of the question. So this air defense bunker has always been used as a warehouse. There are no enemies at all, let alone air raids. In short, it is more like a legend that fruit merchants store bananas here. , there is no need for air conditioning here, it is warm in winter and cool in summer, it is a good place to store fruits. How ridiculous, there are no enemies at all? How naive, this could have been used as a refuge, this could have saved hundreds of lives, but no one ever took it. It was a serious matter here, and in the end no one thought of taking refuge here. In the end, only bananas slowly rotted here.”

"You are quite familiar with this place."

"Texas is my hometown. I used to come here to play when I was a child. This air raid shelter was our secret base at that time. The most important thing is that there are endless bananas here. The old man guarding the warehouse looks very fierce, but he is actually a good man. Yes. We children who stole bananas always turned a blind eye." Goldman sighed and said: "Now, they are all gone, leaving only bananas rotting here. How naive we once believed that peace is eternal. , the war is just a story that happened far away, but the facts are the same as what Commander Li said..."

Virgil spoke in a low voice: "Peace is just an illusion. In the cold and dark universe, only war is eternal!"

"Captain, aren't you scared?"

"What are you afraid of?"

"This cold and dark universe, eternal war, all kinds of alien creatures, and death coming at any time." In the dark air-raid shelter filled with the smell of rancid bananas, Goldman said in a sleepy tone: "Peace , this word seems to disappear from my heart forever.”

"You are just not naive anymore. If I really have any idea, it is that you have maintained this innocence to this age. It is not easy," Virgil said with a wry smile. "Not every world is as lucky as the Reach where you live. I once lived in a medieval world. The common people were ignorant and stupid. The only thing they wanted was to fill their stomachs. They didn't care about anything else because survival was already difficult and hunger was more terrible than anything else. The nobles were licentious and shameless. They were born superior and their lives were for pleasure. These people started a war for entertainment, for women, for honor, for face, or even for some philosophical issues, such as the debate on the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg. I think those scumbags can be... They start wars for anything. War is just a big game for them. The chess pieces are the loyal knights of the nobles. "

"And you are a knight?"

"The best knight, but unfortunately he has thoughts, so I am called the Black Knight."

"Why can't knights have thoughts?"

"Knights are just chess pieces of noble lords. They can't even be considered weapons. They are just chess pieces for games or decorative ornaments. As chess pieces, they don't need to have too many thoughts. I said that I am the best knight. I often have my own thoughts. I dominate my soul and control my own actions. So the nobles are afraid of me. I am an alien. They want me to die. In my world, death is a simple thing. Death is always there, as if hidden in every In the shadow, a small cold can kill people, an infectious disease can destroy a country, war is a game for nobles, but a battlefield for knights, death is on the enemy's blade, attached to the flying arrows, it seems to have teeth, it can bite your ass at any time. You see, ignorance, death, war, destruction, disease, all of these have been around me since I was a child, so I am really grateful to the captain, he saved me from the quagmire, let me really see this universe, let me no longer be a decoration, we are real warriors, fighting for the Emperor of God. "

"But don't you feel sad? War, and everything caused by war. "

"If there is no real war, it will be our sorrow. I would rather be with the most terrifying The enemy would rather fight to death than be displayed as a vase in a gorgeous window. Goldman, I don't understand why you think so much. In my opinion, the matter is very simple. Your hometown was invaded and your compatriots were slaughtered, but you are the guardian, you are the avenger, you are Astarte, the wrath of the Holy Emperor, and war is our duty. Besides, with us here, these greenskins will not have a good time. "

"Indeed, but unfortunately, things are not that simple," Goldman smiled and said, "Your original plan doesn't seem to work."

"What are you talking about?" The Black Knight blinked, "What plan of mine, I don't understand."

"Forget it, we are teammates, and you are my captain. If you really want to do something, then you must have my cooperation. You can't do it alone. And I'm not blind. We have been together all this time. I can see what you are going to do. We have sleeping bullets. It's not difficult to capture this greenskin alive. A few bullets can solve the problem, but you fought with him for two hours. "

"I love hand-to-hand combat and the feeling of wielding a long sword. I love it very much. "

"You want to test the orcs' strength," Goldman sighed, "At this point, do you still want to kill the orcs' leader alone?"

"No, you got two things wrong. First, I didn't want to do it alone. You were part of the plan. Second, I didn't want to kill the enemy leader. I wanted to capture him. Unfortunately, it seems that this plan has to be cancelled. "

Virgil's hand-to-hand combat with the orcs was not out of a simple love for single combat, but more out of necessity. Virgil must understand his enemies and these green-skinned orcs. He has always known about the orcs through Lee's narration, but this is not enough. This is not a question of belief or not, but this is a war, a matter of life and death. You must have your own experience to make an accurate judgment.

Virgil originally wanted to bring Goldman with him, and then the two of them would capture the orc boss alive. Virgil did not pay too much attention to Lee's warning that "the orc leader is powerful."

In his opinion, the orcs may be very strong, but no matter how powerful they are, they are only that level. The orcs are not smart, and they don't have their own civilization. As for logistics, air supremacy, and information, they are not very good at fighting. At the same time, all these orcs cannot be compared with humans. They don't even have their own weapons production line. Even if they are alien creatures, they are just a group of barbaric creatures that rely only on their bodies and reproduction to fight. Such enemies are really hard to take seriously.

Moreover, Virgil is different now. He is a knight of the Knights Templar. After a long period of study and training, he has already surpassed ordinary people. Virgil has a fighting power beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The Black Knight is not afraid of any danger. He has had enough of endless boring tasks. He longs for a larger battlefield and more powerful enemies waiting for him to deal with.

He needs a brilliant victory to prove himself.

What better proof is there than a living orc leader? Just find him before everyone else and catch him.

But before making a decision, Virgil needs to collect more information.

He needs a ruler that can let him know how strong the target is and where he is.

So a hand-to-hand fight was designed.

Compared with talking, interrogating, and observing, the way to understand your opponent better is undoubtedly to fight him face to face. The result makes Virgil very sorry. The orcs are really powerful. They have strength beyond the limit of human beings, reaction speed beyond imagination, and violent personality and strong recovery ability. Of course, the most terrifying thing is that the greenskins have a terrifying fighting spirit. They enjoy fighting and are not afraid of death.
