The demons knew this, and looked so devastated when they realized their impending doom.
Soshiyang raised his halberd with both hands. He roared and knocked down the demon in front of him, then chopped the opponent's head from the skull to the pelvis. The demon's body that was cut in half fell to both sides.
Then he stepped forward to reunite with the priest, and the demon here no longer existed.
The two warriors did not need words, they just nodded to each other.
"Then, let's get this done!"
Rogrith's flamethrower was still hissing.
"certainly."
Soshyan responded, and then he moved forward, hoping to end the fight.
The demons had split into two, and the larger part pounced on him.
This vicious fight is just a delay, they are doing everything they can to stop the Astral Knights from advancing, while the smaller group is trying to defeat Farzad's squad.
The horrific music of Slaanesh plays as the demons fight, and the sounds around Farzad are louder, obviously they know who is easier to defeat.
As Farzad trudged forward, the demonic curse continued to grow in his mind.
This endless anger is not meaningless.
On the contrary, if Soshiyan attracts them because of threats, then Farzad is tempting the demons through his own existence. This is the only explanation.
His pride is a flaw that the demons seek to overcome.
"Stay away!."
The technical sergeant shouted at Farzad, and then raised the flamethrower.
The next second, a dazzling tongue of fire emitted from everyone's heads, and those abominations immediately turned into rolling flames.
The demons did not stop attacking, but their attacks became more crazy and blind.
"Ler me get through."
Soshyan ordered, and then his warriors separated to the left and right, still firing at the enemy.
The chain saw that had been roaring for a long time was still spinning. Soshiyang plunged into the flames, relying on the Terminator's powerful protective ability to resist the influence of the flames.
The warp vibrated around him, like a beast pouncing on its heart.
The demons screamed and tried to stop him, but Soshyan had already burst out of their siege, under the cover of a blazing fire.
Burning remains hung from his armor, and he left the demonic remnants behind, leaving his brothers to slay them.
Farzad was besieged for a long time, and his breathing was heavy and rapid.
Soshyan attacked the demons from the right side and punched one demon aside, causing its pincers to shatter.
Then he swung his halberd at another demon, breaking its spine and burning its flesh, leaving only a pool of ichor on the deck.
"Chapter Leader! Don't worry about me!"
Farzad chopped down another demon to the right with lightning speed, and his helmet roared like an explosion, a cry of victory and exhaustion.
He is a warrior who breaks out with new energy and renewed enthusiasm when he is about to collapse.
"I am the Emperor's loyal guard!"
While cutting a demon's jaw in half, Soshyan shouted a new war cry that he had long conceived to inspire his warriors.
"I am the sharp stone blade of the Holy Empire!"
Farzad responded loudly, his voice hoarse but getting stronger and stronger.
"I am the walker named Death!"
"I am the immortal heart of the departed sun!"
"Fire and glory!"
"We are all one!"
When they finished their battle cry, the demons were wiped out.
The hall floor was splattered with thick mud, and the demon's stumps fused together as they lost form.
But the dissipated monsters gave off a foul stench.
Soshyan's eyes scanned the walls of the corridor, and the subspace was still surging, drawing threads one after another.
The ship is as filthy as ever - the Flying Tallarn is unlikely to be redeemed, but the energy behind the corruption has diminished.
The ship is no longer the trap it once was, it now looks more like a rotting corpse.
"Are there other attacks possible?"
The pastor stepped forward and asked, his voice sounding tired.
"There should be no more."
Soshyan replied that the flow of subspace was no longer restless, and the fog seemed to become thinner.
This also confirmed his earlier suspicion.
"The source of the corruption is no longer on the ship. These demons are just traces left by it. The real power has disappeared."
"Then we must find it and destroy it."
Farzad had been leaning on his battle ax. After finishing speaking, he straightened up and strode forward.
They found the captain's cabin a hundred feet away from the bridge.
The door was open, and the room was in ruins. The remains of tables, chairs, shelves, and cupboards were scattered on the floor, and some tattered tapestries hung on the walls, like pieces of skin.
In the center of the room, an altar was overturned and shattered, and large stones were scattered in front of the broken altar like solidified blood.
When they searched carefully, they found an indescribable thing huddled in the ruins.
Rags that were originally uniforms were stuck to its limbs, indicating that the demons emerged from this body.
This demon is twice as tall as a normal human being, and many of its limbs are covered with gray dirt like forgotten tombstones. The ends of its limbs end in half-formed pincers and claws, and one of them simply becomes a
A half meter long bone spur appeared.
Its head is a sunken, deformed skull covered with terrifying fleshy horns, and it looks like an object randomly made out of soft clay.
When the Astral Knights broke in, it was kneeling there, but when it saw the enemy, it wanted to stand up.
But it failed, and instead tried to kneel on the ground and move forward.
Its joints crackled, its jaw clicked with frustrated hatred, and hissing wind leaked from its throat, as if there was only one breath left.
Soshyan ended it with a bomb.
The bomb exploded in its chest, and the thing stared at the big hole in its chest with its mouth open, through which the far wall could be seen.
The demon then screamed, using two long notes to form the beginning of an evil song.
But before the third one, it quieted down.
The demon's physical body collapsed into a crumpled husk, and soon only dry fragments remained like an insect corpse.
"A miserable enemy."
The priest looked at the wreckage on the ground. He sounded disappointed, as if this was not an enemy.
"It is weakened, no, it should be a drained residue."
Soshyan felt the subspace surge here, it was like the ebbing sea water.
"...But it was supposed to be powerful."
"This thing must have put too much energy into its dirty art."
Farzad sniffed and scanned the wreckage of the demon that had corrupted the entire ship.
But Soshyan just shook his head at this statement.
