Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

Chapter 87 Deserve it

The war on the upper nest is still going on, and all the members of the First Army who are focused on the battle still don't know what is happening at the top of the tower.

This is an all-out war, so the 47th Regiment led by Klein did not defend the fortress and people in the bottom nest that did not need other people to defend, but participated in this offensive war.

In a block on the edge of the eastern area of ​​​​the Upper Nest, Klein sat in a modified Leman Russ tank, directing the battle while keeping an eye on the road ahead.

Most of the enemies were running away, but a small number of enemies who persisted realized their inevitable fate. They chose to carry explosive packs on their backs and carry out a crazy attack.

Klein saw that counterattacks on the front position suddenly became very sparse, and then some enemies leaned out of trenches or buildings, unhooked smoke grenades from their waists and threw them out.

The entire neighborhood was quickly enveloped in thick smoke.

"Turn on thermal imaging." Klein ordered in the regiment's communication channel.

Without his order, the soldiers of the 47th Regiment had turned on the thermal imaging function of the power armor. The smoke looked like a hazy patch in the field of vision. Not only did it not have the effect of hiding the enemy, it even made the enemy's outline appear more clearly. It's clear.

The enemy was not aware of this situation. They ran out of trenches or buildings, carrying various explosives on their backs.

Some are melta bombs, some are a bunch of grenades trapped together, and some are carrying bags filled with powdered explosives...

"Kill them." Klein ordered.

The drone that generated the gravity shield temporarily turned off the gravity shield, the laser rifles in the hands of the infantry began to fire, the tank's main gun opened fire, and even the heavy bolts on the armor on the left and right sides of the turret began to fire.

The enemies were harvested in pieces, fell down one by one or were beaten to pieces by heavy weapons, and the explosives on their bodies were also detonated.

The violent explosions caused by various explosives made the ground tremble. The deafening explosions were filtered by the power armor, and the overwhelming shrapnel and gravel were intercepted by the reopened gravity shield.

"Go forward, go forward." Klein ordered urgently.

The 47th Regiment immediately started biological scanning and advanced, arriving at the enemy's position.

The position is right in the center of this neighborhood, and the enemy has deployed various heavy weapons and fortifications in luxurious buildings or roads.

These arrangements had no effect, and Klein didn't care about them. But when the tank he was riding in floated over a large number of obstacles and reached the center of the position, Klein immediately pushed open the hatch cover and leaned half of his body out of the turret to observe what was ahead. A mansion-like building.

The building was half destroyed by artillery fire.

"Go and have a look...go and see if there are any living people inside." Klein ordered the guards.

"Sir, the detection results of the biometric scan show..."

"Go and see, please."

The guard wanted to say that the biometric scan results showed that there was no living person except himself nearby, but he found that Klein was in something wrong at this time, so he entered the mansion to check.

The results were unexpected.

"Report, there is no one inside. I only found some enemy corpses in the remaining bedrooms and kitchen."

"call……"

After hearing the news that there was no one alive inside, Klein breathed a sigh of relief, huddled into the tank and said to the surrounding crew members: "There are no corpses of civilians here, which means the civilians here are not dead, right?"

The crew members stared blankly, not knowing how to respond.

These crews know Klein's situation better than the people outside. They know that the building that Klein asked the guards to inspect is his home.

Just when Klein was about to say something else, Qin Mo's holographic image appeared on the command equipment in front of him.

"Legion Commander." Klein saluted as best he could in the narrow cabin.

"I discovered something at the top of the tower, something about your family." Qin Mo said, "But I'm not sure you can accept it."

When he heard this, Klein realized what Qin Mo wanted to say. He just wanted to know if his family was still alive, so he nodded.

Qin Mo on the holographic image clicked on the air a few times, and then a video was transmitted to Klein's power armor.

Klein saw his grandfather entering the cage with other family members. Their expressions were relaxed at first, as if they were about to be rescued.

Then after a while, their expressions turned frightened again, as if they realized that the cage they were in was a cage.

The flames burned in the air, and the flames gradually turned blue, and all the people in the cage were burned to ashes.

After watching the video, Klein was shaking all over. He opened his mouth to say something or cry, but his voice was squeezed into his throat and could not come out. Only a slight whine came out of his throat.

His reactions grew more intense, then subsided, eventually becoming expressionless.

"Come out of the tank and prepare to teleport, and temporarily hand over your command to the adjutant." Qin Mo ordered, "If you want to say something to others, I will be in the cave of the fortress."

"They deserve it." Klein suddenly spoke cold words, "Why didn't they listen to me and go to the bottom nest with me? These short-sighted fools deserve such an end!"

Klein is now angry. He is not indifferent to his family members. In fact, he returned to the family during the confrontation when there was no war and proposed that everyone go to New Cato together.

Everyone in the entire family is different from other losers in the nest or the top of the tower. They are either generals who have studied in military schools or architects who are proficient in engineering skills. There will be a place for them in New Katori.

And then no one listened.

After feeling the pain as a family member, Klein looked at it from his own perspective. He really felt that his family deserved it because they were not given a chance.

"Are you sure you can continue to assume command responsibilities?" Qin Mo asked.

"I'm sure I can." Klein nodded calmly.

Qin Mo believed it because he knew that Klein was not an easily emotional person, so he didn't interfere too much.

"Keep fighting." Qin Mo turned off the communication.

Klein immediately operated the equipment in front of him, using a larger range of biological scans to confirm the positions of friendly forces and enemies, and then calmly issued the order: "Everyone, continue to move forward, remember our rules: in street fighting, biological scans must be larger than our actions. More priority.”

The 47th Regiment continued to fight. They turned on biological scanning and moved forward to the next position that needed to be attacked.

Enemies located in buildings next to the street can occasionally be scanned on the road. These are usually firepower points left by the enemy to block passing troops.

But these firepower points will be noticed by the guards before they open fire. Then, in the eyes of all the conventional troops, the guards fly over from nowhere and directly smash into the building, smashing the entire building into pieces after a random attack.

When the conventional troops were marching, the artillery shells had already destroyed large buildings and fortifications ahead of them, and when most of the enemies had fled, they purged the brave and tenacious defenders on the position.

Even if it is limited by the terrain of the upper nest and cannot carry out immediate teleportation assaults, the First Army still has the combat power to sweep the enemy.
