Chapter 441 2.21 Mortarion could have won big

Seven sacrificers of the living world.

Seven planets are being reborn.

The Secret One who has already infiltrated Macragge.

The first awakening son of fungus.

The bells rang in the garden, seven long and distant tones. It only took one chance to fall into the illusion, and He would have one more weight to persuade the rebellious son to turn back...

————————————

[Too much haste. 】

Mortarion commented, his eyes reflecting the ominous hospital complex.

Vox didn't know whether Mortarion was talking about themselves or their enemies.

At a glance, these buildings don't seem to have any problems, but as soon as you get closer, the putrid smell hits your nose——

Everyone present put on the highest grade gas mask under the warning of the Lord of Death, but the fishy stench still penetrated the bone marrow and penetrated deep into the soul.

Tiny screams and calls for help sounded from the shadows behind the window. In a daze, Vox even saw the figure of a Death Guard swinging between the windows? !

Vox was silent. He checked the ammunition on his waist again and confirmed the number of Death Guards following them at this moment.

"My lord, the Death Guard are ready to attack at any time."

He said, but saw Mortarion frown at him and murmur something dissatisfied.

Then Mortarion opened the comms channel,

【Gage,】

Mortarion spoke. He was holding his scythe idly like a farmer standing in front of a field. He didn't look like he was about to launch an attack at all.

[Macragge First Hospital, and its three affiliated residential areas, phosphorus fire bombs, incendiary bomb saturation bombing, it is recommended to use phosphorus fire bombs with radiation legacy. 】

After Mortarion finished speaking, he raised his eyes and glanced at the buildings again, then the Lord of Death turned around and began to retreat outside the bombing area.

Vox was silent again. As a Death Guard who would have mistaken the intentions of the Gene Father, he began to reflect.

Vox thought there would be a serious assault, a war against the creatures of the Warp - just like Mortarion had always done before.

And the Lord of Death’s recent irritable and bellicose mood seems to have made him misjudge...

Immediately afterwards, a scream-like radio wave burst out, and Vox could imagine the hapless second-in-command screaming on the other end, and his fellow Ultramarines might want to hack down the man who authorized the Death Guard.

"Sir! I don't understand what you mean?!"

Mortarion frowned.

[I believe you can understand High Gothic, radioactive phosphorus fire bomb saturation bombing, covering three areas of Macragge's first hospital, bombing began forty seconds later. 】

"My lord, this seems-"

【If you don't do this,】

Mortarion said that he looked at the horizon. In a very short period of time, extremely thick dark clouds had accumulated on the horizon, and it looked like it was going to rain soon.

Seeds and life will flourish after the rain.

The other side understands this, and so does Mortarion.

"If the Ultramarines don't follow my orders, Gage,"

Mortarion said,

[Then the Death Guard will do it for you - maybe you will say that the Death Guard does not have Macragge's air supremacy now, but the Death Guard can have it. 】

Gage's anxious voice sounded,

"My lord, Macragge will not authorize..."

Mortarion listened with satisfaction as the ultramarine's voice trailed off. He read the meaning behind the Lord of Death's words - the Death Guard did not mind attacking Macragge and then obtaining Macragge's Air superiority.

Mortarion frowned, time was running out, and he didn't want anything to go wrong at this time.

He took a deep breath, and the smell of corruption reached the tip of his nose.

[If my judgment is wrong, then I am willing to bear all the consequences - after Guilliman returns, I will personally wait for his trial. 】

The slightly trembling radio wave seemed to be trying to explain something,

Tick ​​tick, the first invisible drop of rain fell on the feet of the Lord of Death. Mortarion lowered his head and looked at the deep and wet ground in silence.

Mortarion sounded seriously, with a voice that could not be refused,

[Now, bomb this place, this is the last time. 】

The Space Marines on the opposite side were entangled. On one side was an area with at least hundreds of thousands of people, and on the other side was the order of the original body——

Gage thought of Robert Guilliman's last instructions. At this moment, how much he wished Guilliman had not left here.

He stood there, feeling squeezed by the weight.

Finally, Gage said,

"Sir, please give us a reasonable explanation afterwards."

Mortarion's eyes squeezed into narrow wrinkles. He laughed a few times and watched with satisfaction as the roar of the stormbirds came from the air. The smooth fuselage of the battleship broke through the clouds and flew towards this area.

He seemed to hear the exclamations of those good people in the distance. Maybe there were their family members, relatives, and friends in this hospital—but there was nothing they could do.

The first phosphorus fire bomb drew a perfect arc in the air, and violent and strange bright flames exploded, blasting through the walls of the hospital, and scattered limbs.

In the primarch's sight, Mortarion saw the walls mottled with fungus.

He saw those, still standing, "alive" corpses.

But they were about to disappear again, Mortarion thought, and he would not rush recklessly into the enemy's trap again. The price would be high enough - but it would be worth it.

Phosphorus fire bombs fell one after another, and the Ultramarines even dropped smoke bombs. Perhaps for them, this was necessary to block the connection between the outside world and this hell on earth.

He won't lose this battle easily.

Mortarion thought that he could accurately estimate the enemy's trajectory, and that existence had... extremely high similarities with him, which made his calculations more accurate.

And he was no longer the Mortarion who would be easily aroused by emotions and jump into the enemy's trap.

Even doing this means giving up a lot.

Mortarion chose to give up.

Mortarion was silent. Even though the curtain here was turbulent, this was still the physical world. Chaos could not directly summon their demon army. They needed rituals and anchors - and Mortarion would not let these things exist for a long time. of.

He was curious about what other moves the enemy could use now.

Under the hood, Mortarion chuckled, unscrupulous, which was originally used to describe Hades.

The original body stood there, the scale fire burning fiercely, and the smell of burning coming from the body, which made him feel quite good.

The hospital and nearby buildings have become half-ruined. After a while, after the second round of bombing, this place will become a real wasteland.

There is no life, and the high radiation remaining from the phosphorus fire bomb will also eliminate all subsequent life, disinfecting the area for a long time.

Mortarion thought, the primarch's instinct made him realize that something was wrong - he looked up again,

A new round of phosphorus fire bombs were accurately falling towards his area in his eyes.

? !

At the moment when the shock wave of the phosphorus bomb crashed into the remains of the hospital, Mortarion realized what he had overlooked -

There are traitors among the Ultramarines, just like there are traitors among the Death Guard.

But unfortunately, Robert Guilliman didn't get rid of them.

Great! No more
