Marvel Book of Magical Events

"What doesn't kill is always annoying."

"I didn't know you had such a sense of humor, Hammurabi."

Derrick first disassembled the power armor with the help of the Eternal City's technicians and received more comprehensive medical services in addition to the life support system. Amon and Hannibal also need to replace their armor and weapons, and at the same time replenish their energy for the next work. Compared with counter-espionage and counter-assassination work, fighting on a frontal battlefield is more enjoyable, even if the opponent is an extradimensional spiritual energy entity. As far as Mr. Derrick knows, the Praetorian Order led by Constantine has been able to defeat the enemy in just a short period of time. Within a month, more than five assassination plans by external forces colluding with internal opposition forces to target the emperor and other important officials were uncovered. In retaliation, the Praetorian Order also sent assassins to assassinate important officials of the enemy. But none of the assassination news made it to the newspapers. After all, a senior CIA officer assigned to Eastern Europe was found dead in his office, with his head severed and placed on his desk. Anyone would have started an investigation rather than notify the media with great fanfare.

"Shouldn't you be with Him now?"

"The captain has taken over the responsibility," Hammurabi said. As the logistics vehicle and delivery vehicle of the Praetorian Order, this tracked armored personnel carrier was transported to the battlefield by the Hippogriff assault transport craft together with the emperor's command vehicle, but the gold paint was really conspicuous. "Next, he needs to control the direction of the battle in the command car until the enemy leader appears. He promised to give Black Bolt a dignified death, but only to Black Bolt. Those mutants will not get mercy."

"The information I have is too little. If I knew more, this hunt might not have dragged on for so long." Even if the miniature automatic battlefield surgery that looks like a spider lifts the facial flesh for suturing, Darry Ke Xian didn't even frown. His lips were thin, and his blond curls were shaved short, making his facial lines look even harsher. However, this did not detract from his appearance. After all, every Guardsman looked outrageously handsome. Derrick first knew the various parameters of the Guards' power armor. It was a bit difficult for him to understand that the power armor that could catch tank shells could be broken open by extradimensional spiritual entities. "Why is the symbolic meaning of numbers so important to extradimensional spiritual entities? Is it just superstition? Why do those mutants cling to dark beliefs, even risking their lives?"

"Don't worry, Sir Derrick, some knowledge is not suitable for psychological indoctrination." Hammurabi said. He glanced at the armed personnel of the Sisterhood standing guard outside the crew cabin. The heavy weapons operators, including Aura, were providing security for this logistics armored tracked vehicle far away from the front line. Even if there is a dispute over the issue of protecting the emperor's safety, at this moment the Praetorian Order and the Sisters have to unite to perform the task. After all, even if the genetically modified warriors have occupied the elevators for the upper and lower decks, there is no guarantee that mutants will sneak around and attack through unknown secret passages.

"You will join the study group. When the battle is over and we discuss the details of the battle in the night reading meeting, you can apply. If the commander determines that your knowledge is sufficient, you will be able to learn more secrets." He said, " But I can tell you part of the answer first. Dark beliefs are more deadly than conventional superstitious religions. Religion affects the way of thinking. Dark beliefs affect the way of thinking and can also cause quite bad brain lesions, leading to worse psychological patterns. Worse Yes, dark beliefs are everywhere. Sometimes just modifying a few words in the so-called holy book can cause a tragedy. The participants have no idea what they have joined, but their specific behavior patterns will be strengthened due to long-term participation. , thus becoming part of the ritual. I suggest you read the relevant cases in the library, Karma Taj has collected many cases for reference."

"Sounds bad."

"If you've ever seen an adult woman give birth to the body of a deformed adult male, you know there are worse things in the world. To a mere mortal, that scene would be enough to drive them crazy."

"What about the monster that calls itself Slaughter? Why will it appear again?" Derrick asked first, "We have destroyed the ritual."

"That is a wizard's ritual." Hammurabi said, "If the Attilan aliens mobilize all civilians to participate in the war, then large-scale massacres are inevitable. Extreme fear and warlike emotions will cause considerable concern in the etheric sea. The level of the tide, the monster with the concept of massacre is likely to pass through the already weak curtain of reality here and reappear from the dimensional rift where we don't yet know the location." He looked at the monster stored in the top-secret box next to him. books. The box is filled with runes engraved by Kama Taj ascetics, coupled with force field protection generated by advanced technology, locking the state of each atom to ensure that the item itself will not be damaged. "Perhaps that book will help us find the portal, but there is no time now."

"You did a great job, Malcolm, and I can't think of anything else that needs to be added."

Legion Commander Malcolm lowered his head and accepted the praise humbly.

Although the staff department has formulated numerous plans before the war, how to select appropriate plans and modify them to make the tactics consistent with the current battle situation is a great test of the commander's information screening ability and on-the-spot judgment. Under his command, genetically modified warriors and highly mobile armored forces have broken through the so-called "fourth line of defense" of the Attilan Inhumans. There is the main transportation route on the upper deck of Attilan Star Castle, which can directly lead to the settlement of Attilan civilian clans, which is also the location of the so-called Genetic Parliament.

Since the strategic goal was not to directly seize the enemy's administrative center, Malcolm did not adopt a plan proposed by the staff department to send most of the armored units and genetically modified warriors into civilian clan settlements to participate in street fighting - he deliberately used short-range artillery , armored troops and genetically modified warriors separated and surrounded the Inhuman soldiers on the fourth line of defense, and at the same time released several passages, forcing the Inhuman soldiers to evacuate backwards - he found that the Inhuman soldiers on the "fourth line of defense" were somewhat organized. Improved, and even fought many wonderful anti-encirclement mobile battles. However, many factors that determine the battlefield such as firepower, will, experience, equipment, organization, etc. are not as good as genetically modified warriors. Many Inhuman coalition forces that launched counterattacks still fell They were at a disadvantage and were completely wiped out by the First Battle Group led by Aparisha.

"The strategy of these mutants is to drag us into street fighting. My lord, those mutants participating in mobile warfare are just to gain time to evacuate." Malcolm pointed to the results of Apalixia's battles on the data board and said, "In Within a relatively narrow range, our short-range artillery and individual artillery cannot exert their greatest advantage, and the physical fitness and psychic technology of those mutants are likely to hinder our actions. I found that although the enemy's organization level has improved a lot, There are few, but according to the response of the frontline troops, the mixed mutant troops still have problems such as chaotic command, incompatible equipment and ammunition, and even differences in living environments. Especially the problem of differences in living environments. The rear research department reported that in addition to civilian clans, other mutants There seems to be a difference in people's safe food... Therefore, when I ordered to divide and encircle the fourth line of defense, I deliberately used artillery to disrupt the enemy's evacuation formation, forcing different mutant clans to withdraw to their respective settlements. The army organization was chaotic. I believe that no matter we Whether the pace of the attack slows down, huge logistical problems will also bring down the Attilan mutants' administrative and military systems."
