Sosh Yang, who was working hard to eliminate the last group of mobile Necrons with his comrades, heard the voice of the company commander, immediately turned his head and saw Everridge walking towards him, his left arm lifted from the elbow
It was cut off, and there was still a wisp of smoke coming from the incision.
But this did not affect the company commander's resolute expression at all, as if the wound did not appear on his body.
"How will you be here?"
"Our landing module encountered enemy fire when it landed and was slightly off track, but it was okay -"
"It's bad."
Everidge frowned and interrupted him.
"You should be with Chapter Commander Amurad at this time, not here."
"Company commander, I don't understand."
Soshiyang realized that something was wrong, and the doubts he had before entering the landing module resurfaced deep in his heart. Many things were not normal from the beginning.
But Everidge obviously had no intention of explaining. He glanced around and then said loudly:
"Seventh company! Assemble!"
After taking care of the undead in the mausoleum, the soldiers gathered together. There were fifty-three people in total, including a priest. This was all the remaining living people of the seventh company, most of whom were injured.
"We must completely destroy this node and prevent the undead from repairing it."
Everidge said, looking at a soldier wearing a red and white helmet, that was his adjutant.
"Are the melta bombs ready?"
"Yes, company commander."
At this time, the ominous sound of metal friction sounded from the southern entrance of the mausoleum, as if countless pairs of iron boots were trampling the ground. Without looking, Sosh Yang knew that the enemy's large forces were coming. Obviously their owner was unwilling to give up.
This important energy node.
The seventh company commander looked at the entrance, then turned to the left and met Sosh Yang's strong eyes.
He took a deep breath and continued:
"You are the last fifty-three members of the Seventh Company. You carry all the honor of the company on your shoulders. Maybe I haven't fought for that long, but I have vowed to witness it all! The Seventh Company has fought hard so far,
And we will continue to fight until this is over, a final battle to end the nightmare of the undead, a final battle to fulfill our duties and defend the honor of the team!"
At this time, the priest in black armor also stood up and said loudly in a stern voice:
"So what are your plans? Will you join me in pleading with the souls of our fallen brethren to help us in the coming battle and to inspire us to fight? All of you!"
In an instant, all the Astartes faced the priest and knelt on one knee on the hard rock floor, as did Soshyan.
Some people moved slowly because of wounds on their bodies, but no one hesitated.
The priest stood in front of them, holding his scepter high and watching the people follow his movements.
"In the name of your most noble Majesty, the Holy Emperor, we beg you."
"Long live my emperor!"
Everyone responded.
"For your undying devotion to the honor of the Emperor and his defenders, we beg you."
"Long live my emperor!"
"Those who sacrificed their lives and exchanged the eternal torment of immortality for our survival, we beg you to recall the souls of our brothers from their deaths and return them to you!"
“It’s the name of death!”
The angels of death answered in unison.
At this time, those shambling mechanical nightmares emerged from the darkness of the passage again, with cold green flames burning in their empty eye sockets. The tearing guns in their hands were held flat on their chests, like neatly stacked toy soldiers.
, walking with precise steps towards the creatures gathered in the mausoleum.
"Get ready to fight! You guys go plant the melta bombs!"
The soldiers of the company began to take their positions. Just when Soshyang picked up his gun and was about to find his position, the company commander appeared in front of him and handed Soshyang his sword and a helmet.
"Take it, take your team, leave here, and go to the chapter leader. If you go in that direction, you should be able to meet them."
His voice was not loud, but it carried unquestionable authority.
"This is an order."
As if he knew what Soshyan's next sentence was, he added another sentence, then turned and walked towards the pastor.
"Company Commander——"
Sosh Yang stretched out his hand and called out. Everridge paused but did not look back.
"I'll be back soon, no matter what."
After saying that, he put on his helmet, turned around, gathered the remaining five members of his team, and walked in the direction Everidge pointed before.
Everidge, who came to the priest's side, turned back, watched Sosh Yang's figure disappear into the shadow of the passage, and whispered:
"May the Emperor bless him."
"May the Emperor have mercy on us."
The priest's words evoked a wry smile on Everidge's lips. He took off the bolter fixed on his thigh and came behind the bunker. At this time, the undead had already started shooting, and the surging dissociation rays rained down on the Astartes.
The entrenched area is attacked.
boom----!
Along with the huge roar that shook the entire mausoleum, the energy nodes supplying the entire area were instantly interrupted, and darkness suddenly enveloped the surrounding area.
"For the Emperor!!!!"
With a roar, Everidge fired the first shot at the enemy.
The other Astartes also immediately released their anger. The flames of the bolters suddenly became a little bright light in the darkness, and the light emitted by the undead was like the will-o'-the-wisps in the tomb. The two were intertwined and kept growing.
Accompanied by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
"Why?"
Hearing the gunshots behind him, Axey glanced back, then quickly walked to Sosh Yang's side.
"You've asked me four times."
"I do not understand."
"This is an order, you don't need to understand it."
"Sosh Yang!"
Axel grabbed the opponent's arm, and the whole team stopped immediately.
"We are not cowards!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on him. Although Soshyan was not wearing a helmet, his expressionless face was no different from a helmet.
"No one said you were a coward."
"Then we should fight! Die with the other brothers! Instead of...running away!"
"I repeat, this is not an escape, this is an order, an order from the company commander."
"Why? Is there any mission that requires us? We are not veterans, nor are we Terminators."
"Watch your words, Axel."
After glaring at the other party, Soshyang pulled his arm out of the other party's palm and continued to walk forward.
"It is true that we are not veterans, nor are we Terminators, but we are still Astartes, the Emperor's warriors, and the extension of His eternal will. I hope you can face your own value more seriously."
Faced with Sosh Yang's words, Axel was speechless. He glanced at the others, but after they paused for a moment, they followed Sosh Yang's footsteps.
"Well, I hope the mission is worth it."
Shaking his head, Axel quickly followed, and the gunshots behind him gradually became fainter with distance...
