Warhammer: I am the Hammer of the Empire

Chapter 272 Tianying Mountain

The abandoned urban railway once connected many materials produced by Loander's endless industrial production. A large number of trains are still filled with various raw materials. However, the war destroyed the roads, many vehicles derailed, and scattered things were scattered all over the ground. What was once the city's main blood vessel has become a clogged road.

The Master Chief chose to approach from here for many reasons, and there were also obstacles, such as the bad toxicity that filled the craters as the poisonous fog filled the air.

Or because it was close to Tianying Mountain, which had turned into an altar of death. Everything here looked gray, green, and full of filth. But what was interesting was that they did not see any corpses of the driver or passengers. It was obvious that this place had been destroyed. The enemy "collected" a wave?

But there are no track marks or wheels here, because the car will never be able to pass through the complex scrap metal here.

Only the soldiers of the Imperial Guard were different. Their engines roared, and a huge Chimera armored vehicle carried nine battle-hardened veterans. They didn't say a word, but methodically began to take stimulants to help them resist diseases.

Those debris and messy obstacles have become the most troublesome thing for the Chimera armored vehicle. The servant's shouts kept coming from the Master Chief's communicator, and he complained about how difficult it was to move forward here, but he accurately passed through the gaps made of waste materials time and time again. .

The Space Marines did not get into the car. They were walking in front of them and used great force to break apart scraps and metals to clear the path for the car, just like bulldozers working in a group.

It was a mixed blessing, and for today's situation, the bunker it created could serve as cover for the Master Chief's advance, although the sophisticated spectral sensing on his sights was enough to leave everything uncovered.

But as expected, the enemy did not expect that the railway that now has no transportation capacity would still have people approaching through such a place, because it is absolutely impossible to pass heavy vehicles. In this way, those scrap irons are not useless, at least judging from their effects , even trash is loyal.

But when the Master Chief's complex information processing equipment touched something through his sensitive facial features, he said with certainty. "It appears we have found the driver and passenger and are close to our destination."

The brothers of the Destruction Eagle were happy to see such a thing. They also picked up their own bombs, their jump backpacks flashing with light. Although they attracted many zombies, they began to install bombs on the top of the tunnel faster.

The Master Chief's blade pierced the mutant's neck from behind, nearly vaporizing its head. The second monster also fell when he turned to him after the sound, as a chain sword belonging to his brother was inserted. Its eye sockets pierced its rotting brain.

His brother said too. "Even if those zombies don't wear out the chainsword very much, cutting flesh still requires the use of precious monomolecular blades."

The explosion of the melta bomb is not destruction but melting. After a quick start, the high temperature will dissolve the entire wall. For the enemies on the anti-aircraft array and the equipment and debris falling from the many factory warehouses, such a sudden surprise is a surprise. They were caught off guard.

It can be said that the existence of zombies is people's fundamental fear of death, and the Lord of Plague uses a drop of extremely thin liquid in his endless crucible to complete the miracle in human eyes.

Those Chaos cultists had become sluggish due to such a mutation. They wanted to fight back, but suddenly realized that their heavy equipment was buried underground, and many people fell to death. When new weapons were transported, who also left. , but they still fired, but the automatic weapons did not even hurt the joints of the Space Marines, let alone the Chimera armored vehicles and they were moving at high speed.

This thing that has been described and recorded in various ways in ancient Terra definitely has a place in the evolutionary history of human civilization. The way the semi-rotted body squirmed and was "resurrected" by the magic power of the Supreme Sky satisfied mankind's most primitive fear of terror. imagination.

The brothers looked helplessly at the monsters. When the lights of the Chimera armored vehicles shone in the narrow tunnel, densely packed bodies gathered here, and then the forts on it, the explosive bombs exploded with light, and the Imperial Guards stepped off the vehicles. The soldiers shot at the monsters together. Because of this situation, they could only fight their way out.

"Lower the sound input to your armor," the Master Chief ordered as he hacked and slashed his way through the monsters. "Keep audio communications only."

"Guys, use sticky hot melt to tape those things to the walls, don't skimp on the jump pack fuel, we'll tape the entire top of the tunnel!"

The Master Chief led the way, walking quickly along the railroad until the first zombie came close and then died before its hazy consciousness even registered his presence.

"Probably, that's the last one at the moment." The Master Chief commented, but when he looked up and saw the densely packed, bright red eyes in the tunnel, he said immediately. "wrong!"

As for the Master Chief, he could only set off immediately and walk along the tunnel, searching for threats in the darkness and watching the precise timer on the helmet display, which was slowly ticking down.

And used his sharp sword to tear apart the corrupted bodies one by one...

After the rumbling collapse, the cracked tunnel turned into a strange canyon. The dead heretic soldiers and a large number of fallen equipment were wrapped in a lot of metal. The Space Marines also began to use their strength to open the ruins on the body with amazing force. .

"That's right! There's a heretic taint in their voices, and I won't risk corruption." The Master Chief slammed the butt of his bolt rifle into the other's rotten face, smashing the thing's exploding eyeball, breaking Liquid spurted from its head and the zombie collapsed, although still grinning.

But more monsters staggered towards him, their moans filling the confined space. The sound made the Chief nauseous, as if some poison had seeped into his mind.

But this situation has not changed much. The Master Chief used his strong shoulder armor to press a corpse against the wall, and then violently tore its body apart. The mortals of the Imperial Guard could not get too close because they would be corroded. The two brothers stuck together and opened the way like a meat grinder.

"It would be nice if there were Tyrande raiders at this time. Without heavy firepower, people feel tired." He thought briefly, and looked at the tunnel wall next to him, then hammered hard with his hands, and then Judging by the sound it conveys.

Those fighting brothers understood this, and of course they might be discovered by the enemy, but the zombies obviously avoided the light. If they filed out of the tunnel, the person being attacked would obviously be...

The Master Chief just shook the Falcon Sword in his hand, and his muscles drove the fiber bundles of the power armor. The entire armor moved slightly, so he confirmed that his equipment was still in good condition. "Go over and advance slowly. Once the range reaches the charging distance, deal with it with melee combat. Don't shoot, lest you be discovered by the enemy."

"No, we can't bypass the tunnel. We may encounter enemy reconnaissance elsewhere. Secondly..."

Because he saw a few scattered things in the distance that were born from the magic power of the Plague Lord. It was one of the boundless nightmares transformed by the power of the Chaos Gods. Although it was fragile and simple, those things were attracted by something, Probably the Chaos Magic on the Aquila Mountain, many of them hide in the train tunnels out of fear of the fierce light of the star, because the temperature will cause them to decay faster.

He gave orders, able to attack and defend, vigilant and radical. His mortal servants mentally encouraged his Space Marine teammates, but the Astartes monks firmly believed in his judgment and used communicators to answer silently in the eyes of outsiders. "yes!"

Bang, I saw the Master Chief patting the dust on his body and raising his gun to kill the yelling guy. The whole thing turned into blood. The other brothers helped the Chimera armored vehicle leave the rubble, and he left to take command immediately. "Get over the rubble and keep moving forward!"

"Too many." The Master Chief's body under the headlights has turned red, completely stained with waste flesh and blood. It is crazy and terrifying, and he is the only one in the team who is not breathing heavily.

"There are strange movements here, sergeant, and there are enemies in front of us!" said a brother.

The Master Chief, his foe roaring in rage, tried to shatter Cassian's visor with its fists, which was ridiculous and impossible, as none of its rotting flesh touched the Space Marine.

What danced with the fragments was light, amazing light, first the hot light of the molten explosion, then the light of the sun, the light of the stars, the heat, and the noise.

The dead began to move forward to avoid those things, and the entire tunnel became bright and transparent. At the same time, it collapsed, a violent collapse. The Space Marines directly ignored it with their storm shields or their armor, and mortals had no problem hiding in the Chimera.

"4 meters? Not thick, very good." Originally he didn't think there would be so many zombies, but now he really needs some new methods.

How many of those monsters were in the tunnel going down from the train could not be seen clearly. However, the tunnel was not long and was only built to bypass the factory area directly above. However, there were many air defense areas in the factory area, and there were obviously enemies stationed there.

"Keep going," he replied. "We can't let these abominations slow us down or the entire offense will fail."

Those shootings were not even considered obstacles. Those Space Marines and Chimera armored vehicles drove the zombies forward like shepherds. The infinitely powerful monsters were stimulated by the heat and bright light of the stars, and subconsciously used their bodies to tear apart creations. Defenses built by their cultists.

And he took a breath of cold air. It was a scattered white bone, and its joints revealed a red flesh color. Obviously that color was not the so-called dyeing, but that the zombies had eaten someone alive. "I don't want to be like that!" he shouted urgently, fearing those monsters.

It's not that they can't get through it, but the losses here are obviously not good. Spend all the resources for those brainless things?

The Master Chief turned sideways and almost instinctively used his fists to break the thighs of the charging corpse, then stepped on and crushed its head. The weight made the skull crack like a ripe watermelon...

As for the Chaos Cultists, they had no idea that anyone could clear out the zombies below without activating a large force without being discovered, so the Space Marines only heard a few words. "Collapse! Call someone over quickly!"

"I don't know how many monsters there are in the tunnel. If there are too many, use your jump pack to retreat immediately, and then ask your adjutant to provide fire cover!"

One of the brothers stepped aside and slashed at the enemy's leg with his sword, causing the heretic to kneel to the ground. The Master Chief pressed his bolt rifle against the enemy's head with one hand, destroying it. head of.

And that turbid thing of death was given an extremely appropriate name, zombie, at the beginning of human civilization.

"Shall we go around?" said the mortal servant who was transporting the soldiers in a Chimera armored vehicle. He was a little unsure whether the claws of those monsters would tear through the armor of his new vehicle.

The zombie's skin has ulcerated, and the whole body is thin. The areas with good skin are pale, and there is not much hair left. There are probably no eyelids on the eye sockets, but no one will underestimate that thing. Although it does not have much defense, its strength But they are much larger than ordinary people, and can run extremely fast, but there are not many of them now, so they are not something to be afraid of.

"You feel it too, sergeant?" one brother asked.

Those stupid zombies naturally cannot see the Space Marines, and the Chimera armored vehicles are also out of their sight range. Those monsters that are similar to beasts naturally cannot hinder the supermen.

"Those monsters have good noses. Whether it's the breath from the rear of your car or the flesh and blood in the air holes above, I think their thirst for mortal bones and blood should be greater than their fascination with Tianying Mountain. Look at the foot of the one on the right." Sergeant The chief reminded that the mortal servants also used the telescopes in their belts to look out through the narrow observation holes of the armored vehicles.

Those silent and efficient giants rely on the bunkers to advance alternately. It is difficult to imagine that such a huge body can be so quiet, and the power armor of the Space Marines is even more powerful, which can completely cover their breath and smell, the sound of action and the amazing Body weight.

"Gods, damn it! Where is the person! It's the Space Marines, it's the Astartes, open..."

Corpses filled the trenches, sandbags and barbed wire were torn apart, and even heavy machine guns could only defend for a moment before being swallowed up. Thousands of cultists died in just a moment.

shouted the mortal servant on the Chimera armored vehicle. "Too many, my bullets are almost empty!"

The existence of those zombies means that the enemy has not cleaned up the underground, and is probably using it as a defense.

Until the indestructible Lemanus tank used its terrifying main gun to stop the zombies, blasting the flesh and blood along with its own soldiers, and Ed von Ka, who was dispatching the soldiers on the tank, asked with a dark face. "Who invaded here?"

The scout answered immediately. "It's...a squad...a squad with only ten Space Marines and one armored vehicle!"

Ed von Ka smiled, he was angry, he made strict demands and worked hard to defend, but the zombies broke through 40% of the defense line?

But he said quickly. "Call the rune team to come. The ceremony will be completed in one and a half days. I want to be absolutely sure, and I, I will become the first Alpha+ level psyker in the history of this sector, just like Scat did not do it. That’s it!”
