Chapter 334: Trench Laughter Chapter Dressing and Armoring
The fireworks produced by the explosion didn't even cause any significant damage to the dung mountain. The opponent simply shook his head and used his sword to prop up his bloated body.
Old Patch just felt his mouth dry. After fighting for so many years, this was the first time he witnessed such a terrifying enemy...which was not even a human.
"Boom, boom, boom!".
The madly galloping knight overturned the tank and rushed towards the Great Unclean One without looking back. He placed the chainsaw horizontally and blocked the swing of the corrupt giant sword with a "clang".
The hydraulic system squeaked, and the body was crushed by the combined weight and power of the blow. He fell to one knee with a bang.
The roaring missile exploded Kugax's chest. Looking at the Chaos Demon that was so close, the pilot fired the thermal cannon resolutely.
But in the instant when the light appeared, a fist that was tainted with ominous intent and almost half the size of his body hit his front armor with a cannonball.
"Plop!"
The broken pieces of armor flew out like watermelons shattered by bullets, whizzing several kilometers away and crashing into the position of the Astra Militarum in the distance.
"Ah!"
No one knew what part of the body the fragment came from, but a metal part the size of a person bounced twice on the ground, flipped over and crushed several unfortunate soldiers.
Old Patch shook the dust off his helmet, breathing heavily like a bellows, and shouted to the people around him, fulfilling his responsibilities as a squad leader.
"Are you all still alive? Count them!"
"1!"
"2!"
"..."
"6!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
Out of seven, only three died, which was much better than he had imagined, except that one of them might have lost the ability to fight.
"Child! Stop screaming!"
As Old Patch said this, he pulled up the young man who was in the same tunnel. The soldier who had been full of confidence and wanted to slaughter the enemy just now was now scared and collapsed.
The curled up hands and feet wanted to bury themselves in the soil, as if this was the only way to ensure survival on the battlefield.
"I..I..go home..woooo..go home!"
Old Patch sighed, thinking that the boundless sea of stars is our home, and the enemy that gave birth to you is just an ordinary ball of dirt.
"We have to win this battle. Come on, get up! The commissar is coming!"
"Political Commissar...Political Commissar..."
The young man looked around with trembling eyes, but before he could calm down, the falling shell made him scream and dig the ground with his hands.
"Patch! Take your team north, your strength is needed more there!"
The commissar's voice rang out, and Old Patch had to sigh and stand up to answer.
"Yes."
"Commissar! Commissar, I want to go home! I want to go home!"
The political commissar looked at the young soldier, adjusted his hat, and knelt on one knee and said:
"Look at me! Look at me! This is your home, you are home, you are kneeling on the ground of your home, it doesn't like you and you don't like it, but I swear child, this is home!
The Emperor needs you. That's what the priest said. Think about it and say it. The Emperor wants you to bring glory to Him and do things that your mother doesn't want to recall.
But this is for the Emperor, He will protect everyone behind the scenes, protect you, yes, especially you! I promise you!"
The boy stood up tremblingly. Although his pants were soaked, no one laughed at him. After all, everyone has a past.
"BOOM!"
"Ah ah ah..."
"boom!"
"Everyone hurry up!"
Old Patchy did not feel too sad when he looked at the dead boy. After all, he had seen this kind of scene many times.
"Bad joke from the trenches..."
"Let's go."
Iron Chin patted Old Patch's shoulder, and the two looked at each other before following the troops into action. Listening to the political commissar's shouts of courage, they moved forward silently, toward death.
"As long as you shoot accurately enough, even a poorly maintained Titan can be blown up by your laser guns, not to mention that the other side doesn't have one.
So act quickly, believe in your own abilities, you are the Astra Militarum, you are the cornerstone of the Empire! Quick! Quick! "
...
At this time, Lin Heng had just entered the battlefield where artillery fire was raging. As soon as the chariot with smoke coming out of it stopped, a technical priest of the order immediately stepped forward and said:
"Please follow us, Venerable. The mountain base is under siege. You will need stronger protection to survive the upcoming danger."
Lin Heng did not think much about it. After all, once his strength was put into the war, it would seem much weaker. It was indeed necessary to take some protective measures. So he quickly followed them into the tunnel of the firepower platform.
The rumbling sound of artillery fire in the sky immediately weakened a lot, and even the shaking became much smaller. It was so quiet that there was even a peaceful atmosphere floating in the air.
Ten high-level technical priests stood in two rows, each holding some kind of instrument that looked like it was needed for a ceremony, and the priests immediately gave an answer.
"Head incense, holy seal of chastity, sacred oil, nail-shaking hammer, finishing sickle, roughening square... these are all items that will be used to forge any kind of shell.
They represent details, they represent the gift from the God of All Things, and they represent a powerful guarantee against danger.
Come, Your Excellency, put on your own power armor, a set of exclusive power armor that is hastily made but still stronger than everyone else's."
The priest pointed his three hands toward the end of the team. The lights slowly lit up, and a dozen mechanical arms with exposed cables began to swing.
“Dang…Dang…Dang…”
A bell rang from somewhere, and Lin Heng suddenly realized what was wrong with him. His organs had been regenerated so many times, but he still didn't have a proper set of power armor.
It’s no wonder that the organs keep regenerating. They have no armor to resist damage. If they don’t get hurt, who will?
Although he can rely on psychic powers to defend against various attacks, he cannot hold up the shield all the time, not to mention that in some situations even psychic powers are useless.
"If I had given it to you earlier, I wouldn't have been brutally tortured by Typhons."
Lin Heng said as he quickly stepped forward and stood on the platform, took off the weathered cloth strips, and prepared to put on the armor that symbolized an angel.
The first and most important piece is the black shell, which is the device that connects the power armor neurons.
The embarrassing thing is that due to his different physique, Lin Heng does not have any neural sensor interfaces on his body, so the nerve bundles inside the shell cannot connect to the brain.
"Why...why not?"
The pastor stood there in a daze, and even the mechanical arms that were about to lock the nerve valves stopped in the air. The five-centimeter-long needles swung back and forth, but could not find the place to connect.
After a brief thought, Lin Heng took the sickle from the priest who was performing the ceremony, and under the puzzled gazes of everyone, he cut open his skin along the location of the nerve bundle.
"Help me stuff it in."
The priests were stunned and quickly helped the angel in front of them put on the black armor to block its neural sensors.
Power Armor Details
"Proceed to the next step and put on the armored boots!"
"Greaves."
"Knee armor."
"Leg armor."
"Breastplate."
"Arm armor."
"Elbow armor."
"Armored gauntlets."
"Throat Guard."
"Shoulder armor."
"Powered backpack unit."
"Put on your helmet. Become a true Astartes!"
The "clang clang clang" sound of metal collision was a bit muffled. Lin Heng listened to this powerful sound and accepted the glory that belonged to him.
Looking at the dark blue self in the mirror, although it is just a set of armor without any logo or number, it symbolizes that he has finally achieved a class leap and his connection with the empire has become closer.
Mark X
"Done, Mark X Primal Space Marine, finally, put on the Seal of Chastity, symbolizing purity, and welcome..."
The pastor was still speaking, and was about to press the sheepskin seal on the shoulder armor, but Lin Heng gently pushed the pastor's arm away, clenched his fist, felt the new body and said:
"I am the sacred symbol... bring us the weapons!"
Several mechanical servants came quickly, carrying bolters that had undergone the machine soul awakening ceremony, but Lin Heng just touched them and threw them aside, only wearing the finely crafted power sword and tactical dagger.
"Leave the guns to others. Cutting them into pieces is the salvation I want to give to those damned criminals!"
“Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo!”
Lin Heng, who became an Astarte, rushed out.
...
"Whoosh~"
"boom!"
"Whoosh!"
"BOOM!"
The flying bullets pressed him so hard that he dared not look up. Old Patch could only bend over and run for several kilometers. He leaned against the earth wall with a "bang", gasping for breath and feeling lucky that he did not die on the road.
"Count!"
"1"
..
"5"
Only one died, Old Patchy nodded. Although he didn't know how he died, at least one died...
"The Third Squadron will immediately fill the gap at 112e.89w and intercept the rebel army!"
There was a sound from the walkie-talkie, and the signalman informed him.
"I understand. If we let those traitors break through our position, none of us will be happy. Follow the brothers from other squads and charge!"
“Boom…Boom…Boom!”
He didn't know what the muffled sound was coming from, but Old Patch felt that the sound of artillery around him was deafening. More artillery represented a strong military force, but on the other hand it also proved that this place was more dangerous.
"Ahahaha! I'm fed up. Hand over my future brother!"
Kugath roared, then chopped the 14th knight who attacked from behind with one sword, and then shoveled the ground horizontally with the giant sword, causing dozens of low-level demons to fly towards the position.
There are many unclean people, but few have legs this long.
Although most of them were just body parts and pieces of flesh, to a loving father, the dead were even more useful than the living.
"Boom..Boom! Boom!"
The "crackling" sound of the ground hitting old Patchy's chest was like a hammer, making it difficult for him to breathe, but he had to fight back even if it meant suffocating him to death.
"biu!"
Buzzing lasers pierced through the plague zombies.
"boom!"
The roaring grenade shattered the low-level demons.
He helped up his fallen teammate, only to find that his face was hideous and his flesh and bones were torn apart... He was no longer a human being, no longer his teammate.
"KAAA...cough!"
The dagger pierced through his head from bottom to top. Old Patch's heart was pounding. He hurriedly took off his pus-stained gloves and sat on the ground with tears in his eyes.
"The political commissar is dead too... all... all dead."
Old Patch looked around and saw the rotting iron chin on the ground, the shoulder armor spewing out the team number, and the eyes of the mountain.
Kugath stared at the big eyes with maggots crawling out of them, then grinned, rolled up and started toward Old Patch.
The rumbling mountain was unstoppable. Tanks, knights, buildings, even cracks and chasms could not stop it for a second.
The huge sphere rolled like a wheel, and in less than half a minute it crushed out a death gully. It was shocking to see from a distance and terrifying to see from close up. The dung mountain really needs to be looked up at.
Old Patch closed his eyes and prepared to face his death.
"I hope I don't become that disgusting beast..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
...
Lin Heng jumped out of the trench with a "bang" and leaped 5 meters high, completely surpassing the ordinary space warriors. Although the armor restricted many of his agile postures, it greatly enhanced his physical strength.
But the joy was short-lived, because standing on top of the bunker, he saw the plague-ridden land in front of him, a world of death yet full of vitality.
"SAAAKAAA!"
The Chaos Eggs screamed with their six mouths, and then rushed forward swinging their thirteen legs and twenty-four arms. Lin Heng drew out the power sword and activated the decomposition stance, stepping on the ground and leaving a seal to kill the enemy.
"die!"
The "Rolling Tide" is integrated into the armor, and the light blue mist lingers around it, making the armor even more mysterious.
He dashed past at lightning speed and killed one of the six. Then he heard the sound of a sword chiming like a dragon, and cut through it and killed another one. He put away the sword and pushed it sideways to kill one. With one hand, he crushed the jumping beast in the air.
When he lifted the visor, his eyes and mouth were all red, and the 'breath of flame' gushed out with a 'puff', like a giant python turning over and over, with a scorched color all over the river and sea.
[Resistance: 1046+77+54+32]
Lin Heng looked at the armor on his body in confusion and found that he was not stained with any blood or flesh, but this attribute was actually added to his body.
Just when he was puzzled and wondering if it was because of the subspace, he did not expect the other party to respond first.
"Lin Heng... I didn't give you the power armor... to let you charge into battle... Don't make unnecessary sacrifices!"
The person involved looked at the flames of war not far away. Under the sky with floating ashes, the mountain was rolling towards the position, with houses collapsing and the earth being destroyed.
“Pastor, I live in mystery. I cannot see the truth of everything around me. Even you are hiding something from me.
I appreciate your help, but I want to live for myself, simply, without any hidden judgment, purely from my own choice. "
Lin Heng cut off the star language, looked forward and then charged towards the demon army.
"Lin Heng! Lin Heng!"
The priest in the mountain base sighed, then looked at his companions who were waiting for news and said:
"It seems that he has doubts about our identities...Should we tell him the inside story?"
Blood Crow shook his head and said:
"It's not the right time yet. The atmosphere is not right yet. It's not enough to have a big impact on his heart. We have to wait."
The Flesh Tearer bit his lips until they bled and said:
"agree."
The Astra Militarum Colonel sucked his teeth and said:
"Hiss...it seems we have to do it according to that guy's method...someone has to do it."
The four of them looked at each other, then beat their chests in unison. The Astra Militarum Colonel stayed at the base and watched the three Space Marines leave on the Raven Black Star.
Looking at their departing backs, he said silently:
"I wish us success..I hope we can meet again one day..."
