Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 87 02.0087: ‘Bleeding Glory’

【+Eh? What do the angels of death see us doing? +] David Betty and the Blood Angel in front of him stared at each other with big eyes.

Suddenly, the Blood Angel's big hand grasped his Orm Shield helmet.

【+Ah! What's going on? Why arrest me? ? ? +] David Beatty yelled.

[No, I'm starting to get thirsty! ]

"Brother Fislowen! Control your desires!"

Just as Horatio was about to do something, a rich and clear voice came from the hatch in the direction of the docking station.

The Blood Angel who caught David Betty seemed to be awakened from hypnosis. His head suddenly jumped back, and he put David Betty down, and then looked in the direction of the sound.

Horatio looked at the person who came, it was a Blood Angel wearing a terrifying skull helmet, waving a sword in his hand - it was both a weapon and a ritual tool.

He is the Chapter Chaplain of the Blood Angels.

Behind him was a pharmacist with a single piece of white shoulder armor with a winged right helix logo painted on it. He quickly stepped forward to treat the wounds of the injured Blood Angels and recover the gene seeds of the fallen Blood Angels.

Under the call of the Chapter Chaplain, the Blood Angels regained their senses one after another and bowed their heads to salute the Chaplain.

[+Priest Voltaire+] Captain Afel shouted softly as he gradually suppressed his blood thirst.

"Stand firm in duty and fight against evil desires. The angels once again brought light and dispersed the poisonous fog." The Chapter Chaplain walked among the battle brothers and recited the unique prayer of the Blood Angels.

The incense burner in his hand swayed with his steps, and wherever he passed, Nurgle's slime carpet would instantly turn into water and disappear.

Captain Apheel once again looked at the mortal beside him who was holding a chain sword in one hand. He was not angry because the victory was robbed, but Horatio didn't know what kind of expression he had behind his helmet.

Although the actual situation is that Horatio rushed forward and slashed four times at the Deathshroud soldier who was overwhelmed by the company commander, but he did not cause serious damage to the opponent. In the end, it was the company commander Apheel who chopped him up.

[+I once thought that the best mortal warriors were in the Sun Auxiliary Army, but today, warriors of the Imperial Navy, you performed very well. What is your designation? +]

[+Hell's Spearhead+] Horatio replied with the aquila salute.

[+...Good name+] Captain Afel said after being silent for a while, and then he led the Blood Angels deeper into the cabin.

Horatio watched Captain Apheel's departing back disappear into the darkness, then turned his head, walked to Brother Romain Roland, who was having his wound bandaged by an apothecary, and returned the chain sword to its owner.

"What's your name? Imperial Navy soldier."

Horatio turned around, and Brother Romain Rolland opened his eyes slightly and looked at him.

"Horatio Cochrane."

"You are a good warrior." The pale-faced blond monk slowly raised the corners of his mouth.

"You too." Horatio smiled and said, "I wish you a speedy recovery and the God-Emperor bless you."

Under his gaze, Horatio walked towards the remaining team of Hell's Spearheads.

This is a Kill Team mission that surprises everyone, and is also the first official appearance of Hell's Troopers.

Although five people were killed and six were injured, the reputation of the elite naval special operations force, the 'Hell's Vanguard', would gradually spread throughout the empire and even among the Space Marines during this battle.

Rumor has it that these elite mortal naval warriors can hold and wield the chainsword that only Space Marines can hold with one hand. Even when facing the Death Guard Plague Marines, they have the courage to rush forward and fight.

"He actually killed a Plague Warrior and assisted three more, including a Deathshroud Warrior. Unbelievable..."

"He must have been blessed by the God Emperor! I am grateful to the God Emperor."

"As expected of a descendant of Admiral Speyer..."

Lord Admiral Venuska Katalia put her hands behind her back and looked at the video majestically, analyzing her focus.

Horatio's combat recording video amazed many senior fleet officials and was sealed as an internal top-secret file.

——

Although the mission was a complete success, the purification ceremony after the war was far more painful and torturous than entering the plague ship.

All armor, equipment and weapons involved in this operation were incinerated and destroyed.

When Horatio entered the quarantine area, the stench on his body made him feel sick to his stomach, and he couldn't hide away even if he wanted to.

I went through three days and three nights of naked medical observation and isolation in the isolation room, the stifling state religion aromatherapy to disinfect and remove odors, a tube filled with holy water to wash my stomach and lungs, and endured the force of the battle nuns who rubbed my skin off. Say the Purity Prayer silently and painfully.

‘Thoughts breed doubts, doubts breed heresies. ’

During the purification period he was not allowed to have any thoughts of his own and must devote himself to praising the power of the God-Emperor, otherwise he risked being corrupted by Nurgle. It ranges from brainwashing to death, and two people ended up like this.

After a lot of tossing, when he finally came out, he was whiter and cleaner than when he came out of his mother's womb.

But it's all worth it.

During the subsequent quarantine period, with the mentality of being idle, he applied for an early exam.

After the chief officer of the Navy's Loyalty and Succession Division was shocked by his perfect score in all subjects, the other party had to fulfill his promise and give him 500 per subject.

In the end, Horatio passed 6000 points, plus the points accumulated before and from this mission.

His rank jumped to the Imperial Navy's sergeant-in-training, surpassing Henry Harvey, becoming the first with the shortest enrollment time and the fastest promotion, on par with the Storm Sergeants, and slightly lower than Valina, the senior Storm Sergeant-in-training.

"All students salute the Imperial Navy soldiers in this operation!"

Under the solemn and respectful gaze of all students, Horatio put on the void blue beret symbolizing the Imperial Navy's sergeant-in-training.

All the Hell Vanguards who participated in this operation received a "Loyal and Brave Skull" medal, and the four vanguard teams were awarded the "Sky Eagle Ribbon", a team honor, to commend them for not fearing sacrifice, fighting firmly, and saving a fallen cruiser for the Imperial Navy.

The Imperial Navy specially awarded Horatio a "Courageous Sky Eagle" medal to commend his bold decision to lead the action team to shut down the subspace jump engine when he could not evacuate. It was personally worn on his chest by the Commander-in-Chief of the Gothic Fleet, Venuska Katalia.

This is the Burning Galaxy of the 41st Millennium. Whether it is a space warrior or a mortal, everyone is bleeding and fighting for the survival of mankind.

Death and fighting constitute the bridge between mortals and demigods. All those who fight for the dawn of mankind are the protagonists on the galactic stage.

In the office of the Fleet Military Intelligence Command, Major General Hood, Commodore Edward, and Captain Elphinstone sat together, and the newly promoted Imperial Navy Sergeant Louise saluted them.

"What do you think of Horatio Cochrane?"

"He is very good, flexible, bold and innovative, very resourceful, and has a strong will. No matter how desperate the situation is, he has a positive and optimistic heart." Louise's lips moved slightly:

"So I think he can be the leader of the Hell Vanguard!" Louise's eyes sparkled and her tone was majestic.

The three senior officers nodded.

After Louise went out, the next person to come in was Sergeant David Betty von Ravensburg.

They asked the same question.

"He is... much better than I thought." David Beatty rolled his eyes: "Well, he is an excellent person. Although I don't want to admit it, he did a good job."

The next person to come in was Junior Sergeant Henry Harvey.

"He is a good man. He rescued me from the rubble during the operation. And I admit that I lost my fighting spirit when I was most desperate. I thought we were dead, but he didn't. He was still fighting firmly and encouraged us to launch a counterattack against the enemy." Henry Harvey sighed.

"It seems that we are still short of giving him a "Scarlet Skull" medal (in recognition of heroic acts of saving lives and helping the wounded)." Brigadier General Edward laughed.

Finally, Rear Admiral Hood put down his quill, and the document read:

"The Fleet Military Intelligence Command appoints Horatio Cochrane as the first captain of the Hell Vanguard. The captains of other teams will be the highest-ranking officers in the team, and they will be replaced in turn."

[+The plan to spread the plague has failed. The Gothic Fleet regularly destroys the wreckage of the plague ship. It is difficult to repeat the trick in the short term+] A silent person trembled and wrote this sentence on the paper.

[+The red angel appeared. My master asked me to launch the most fierce attack. He thirsts for the blood of the angel+]

[+Stupid, our goal is to weaken the Gothic Fleet. Your impulsiveness and recklessness will ruin our plan+]

[+Only the weak worry about not being able to have both. When the blood in the Abyss Port flows like a river, the master's warriors and servants will descend on this planet+]

[+The angel will stop at this planet for supplies and is expected to set sail in three weeks+]

[+Let chaos come, let the Abyss Port burn+]
