Chapter 357 The weight of a billion lives

"Captain Xu Zheng, thank you so much. We will definitely use our lives to protect these sacred STC templates and live up to the orders of the original body."

The great sage of the Mechanicus looked at Xu Zheng in front of him. His only face that still had some flesh on it smiled excitedly. He pointed at the skitarii around him and said excitedly to Xu Zheng.

"Well, please, Great Sage, these tasks are very important and bugs must not be allowed to interfere with them."

Xu Zheng looked at the Skitarii. Above his tactical eyepiece, the surrounding radiation index was about to explode. These Skitarii were obviously radiated. Each one of them was a mobile Fukushima nuclear power plant.

"This is absolute. You and the Primarch can rest assured to hand over these sacred STC templates to us, and we will definitely protect them with our lives. The two war generals of the Titan Legion and the main force of the Skitarii will protect these. Holy STC template.”

The great sage patted his chest and spoke to Xu Zheng extremely seriously. As he patted, a sound of metal collision sounded in the space, and as he patted, the radiation index on Xu Zheng's tactical eyepiece increased. With a jump, it is very obvious that the great sage must also be very radiant.

"This is only temporary. I leave it to you to use the Great Sage..."

When Xu Zheng heard the words of the Great Sage, he frowned. This old guy obviously didn't want to return it. Only the time travelers had always picked off other people's wool, but today they were picked up by the Mechanicus. Xu Zheng couldn't help but remind everyone. Sage.

"Uh..., of course, of course."

When the great sage heard Xu Zheng's words, he paused, and then started to fight Xu Zheng. It was obvious that the great sage wanted to fool him. When the time travelers came to recover, they would find some reasons to delay. , anyway, as long as Wang Ming does not come in person, they can always use these sacred STC templates.

"Oh..., okay, it's up to you."

Xu Zheng looked at the great sage in front of him. How could he not know what this old fox was thinking? He was an old fox who had lived for more than 400 years. He, a young man who had only lived for more than 60 years before and after time travel, naturally could not Maybe it's a roundabout way with this old fox, let them do as they please. Anyway, if they don't pay back later, the boss will go directly to them.

After handing over the STC template, Xu Zheng went to another hive. They still had a lot of things to do, and now was not the time to argue with the great sage of the Mechanicum here.

"Who am I? Where am I?"

On a wasteland with flying ice and snow, a naked man slowly climbed up from the ground. He looked at the surrounding ice fields indifferently, and thought in doubt in his mind.

The man's figure was very huge. He was like a giant. The muscles all over his body were like marble. His messy golden hair was tied in several braids. His nose twitched a few times in the cold air, along with his His mouth also opened, and in his mouth, several long teeth were looming.

"This is my home..., I should be here..."

The man looked at the ice field in front of him. He seemed to have remembered something and said to himself. Then he ran on the ice field, howling and jumping, like a wolf playing wantonly, following him He became more and more cheerful, and black hair gradually grew on his body. Gradually, he turned into a huge black wolf, just like Fenrir in the ancient Norse mythology of Terra, he turned into it.

Just when it had been running for who knows how long, two things suddenly appeared in front of it, one was a pack of wolves like itself, and the other was a human village that was being attacked by wolves.

It almost instinctively needs to follow the wolves to attack the humans in the village and have a delicious meal. However, when it sees a man holding an ax with difficulty, he wants to run towards his injured father to protect his father. When he was a little boy, he seemed to remember something again.

The little boy was constantly being crushed by axes bigger than himself, but he still stood up and ran towards his father, but he was still too slow. His father was obviously a wolf, a huge black wolf. His neck was bitten off under the huge mouth, but his father also killed the giant wolf at the last moment.

The sharp sword penetrated the neck of the giant wolf, and the sharp teeth bit the man's neck. They died together. The man fell on the snow, and the same happened to the alpha wolf. The death of the alpha wolf made the wolves feel fear, but it also made them feel Angry, they quickly ran towards the man and boy, trying to devour them.

"I'm not a wolf..., this is not my home..."

The giant wolf watched the pack of wolves rush towards the father and son. It suddenly remembered that it was not a wolf, but a human being and a warrior who protected human beings.

The giant wolf gradually transformed into the man before. The man roared and rushed towards the wolves. His giant-like figure grabbed each wild wolf, like throwing a rag doll. The giant quickly killed among the wolves, as if he was Finally recognized his identity, he is a human being, not a wolf.

"I am human, I am..., I am..."

After the giant killed the wolves, he looked at the corpses of the wolves and the father and son. He remembered his human identity and wanted to know his name, although he didn't know why he wanted to know his name. name, but he vaguely felt that as a human being he must have a name.

"You know my..."

He looked at the father and son out of nowhere, hoping to know his name through them, but when he looked at the father and son again, he was surprised to find that the father and son were gone. Where the father and son were originally, A man who looked like a rotting corpse was standing in front of him, staring at him silently.

"you know…"

Looking at the man like a rotting corpse, he said something inexplicable, which made the man very puzzled. Just when he wanted to ask the man what he meant by this sentence, the man suddenly raised his hand and pointed at a discovery. .

"Go there, you know..."

After the man said these words, there was no movement. No matter what the man said, the man did not answer him. He looked at the direction of the man's finger and could only walk there helplessly.

The man was walking, and suddenly there was a heavy snowfall in the sky. Within 10 minutes, the snow covered the man's waist. However, the man did not stop because of the heavy snow. He still walked forward with all his strength. He had A feeling that that person would not deceive him, that there must be something waiting for him ahead.

I don't know how long he walked, but the man felt like a wolf again in the endless coldness. He subconsciously started to walk on all fours, but his remaining human sanity still prevented him from completely losing his original intention.

In this way, he walked, and after who knows how many suns and moons rose and set, he walked through the snow-capped mountains, ran across the ice fields, stepped across the frozen sea, and finally arrived at an island. The island was very small. , it is only more than 100 meters in size. It is better to say that it is an island than a stone above the sea.

The place is not big, and the man can clearly see the things. One is a huge giant, and the other is a golden spear stuck in the ground.

"You're here, don't ask me questions, you know, you know everything."

The giant looked at the man and he spoke directly to him, as if he knew he was going to arrive here. "I know I know…"

The man looked at the giant, and the guy he dealt with appeared in his memory, and instantly overlapped with the giant in front of him, and the man remembered everything about himself.

He remembered his name, his identity, his purpose for coming here, why he came here, who the little boy was, who his father was, and who he was like. Who is this rotten corpse?

"You should be dead. I killed you with my own hands, my brother."

The man's eyes became sharp in an instant. He looked at the giant in front of him and said to him in a cold tone. His pair of green, wolf-like eyes stared at the giant in front of him, as if he was on guard. The same thing happened, he knew that the guy in front of him was a hypocrite, and everything about him was just a disguise.

"Hahaha, my brother, look, you know everything. Don't look at me like this. After all, I'm dead. Pull up the handle of the spear next to you. You know how to use it."

The giant looked at the man in front of him, and he suddenly burst out laughing. He almost doubled over with laughter. After finally stopping his smile, he pointed to the spear beside him and said to the man.

"You are a hypocrite and this is an evil plot of yours."

The man looked at the giant and said to the giant. He did not make any movement, as if the spear on the ground did not exist at all.

"You know that is false, my brother. We all know that I have made unforgivable mistakes and deserve to be punished, and now I have received the punishment of my father. You personally executed it. Good Robert accepted me. Heir, and you didn’t stop this process, right? We all know..."

The giant smiled and said to the man. He took a few steps closer to the man and came to the man. He stared into the man's wolf-like eyes and gave the brother who killed him all he could do was smile.

"Shut up! You are a traitor! All your words are just to defend yourself!"

The man said angrily to the giant. The giant was not angry because of the man's bad treatment. He still kept smiling, as if the man in front of him was not his murderer, but a brother of his own flesh and blood.

"Father doesn't give us much time. You must get out of here. The galaxy is suffering from disaster. Our brothers need your support, you know."

The giant smiled and opened his arms as if he were a devout pilgrim. Everything was so natural and peaceful.

"Yes I know…"

When the man heard the giant's words, he looked at the spear on the ground, and pulled it out by some mistake. The golden spearhead exuded golden light under the light, and he instinctively thrust the spear toward the giant's chest.

The spearhead pierced the giant's body, and he laughed wantonly, as if he couldn't feel the pain at all. A golden light appeared from his wound, and then turned into a gust of snow.

The giant's body disappeared and turned into a sky full of white snow. The white snow moved with the hurricane and instantly wrapped the man in it. The wind and snow dissipated in an instant. The man looked at the string on his left hand and in his hand. Holding the giant ax in his hand, his green wolf eyes flashed with sadness.

"I see, I've always known it..."

An inexplicable sentence came out of the man's mouth, and then he walked towards the center of the island. He had understood his own nature. He now needs to return to the real universe. He has been away for too long. The wolves must have Alpha wolf.

"It has arrived at the reserved location and is performing the incineration mission."

The perspective shifted to Kolledo. Huge light pillars continued to fall from the sky, just like the mythical judgment of annihilation. Countless insect seas turned into steam under these light pillars, and countless uninhabited hives were occupied by the zerg. It also turned into molten iron, the mountains and rivers turned into lava, and even the ocean full of nuclear radiation in Kolledo was constantly evaporated by the beam of light. The orbital strikes of the Imperial Navy seemed to be killing the world, but its ultimate purpose was to protect this world. world.

Just like the ancient Terran religious books that had long been burned to ashes were the words of the Bible, the angel appeared next to humans for the first time, and his first words to humans were, "Child, don't be afraid."

Doing cruel things is to protect the majority of people. This is the norm in this desperate universe. For example, the judges of the Inquisition sacrifice tens of billions of humans to protect more humans. They have no power to decide the death of innocent people. , but they cannot put more players behind them in danger.

"The casualty report is out. Half a billion people were injured by the light spears of the orbital strike. The aftermath is still in progress, and medical troops are treating the injured."

In the headquarters of the hive city, Wang Ming sat in his office again. The orbital strike greatly reduced the pressure on the front line, and he had time to sit in his office.

"Well, how many people have died? Why are you here?"

Wang Ming put down the data pad in his hand that was correcting the supply documents. He raised his head and looked at Li Qinghui with a pair of golden eyes holding the documents in front of him. Wasn't it Wang Lei who usually delivered documents to him?If Li Qinghui doesn't stay in the biology laboratory, why is she here?

"The specific number of dead is unknown and can only be tentatively classified as missing. The aftermath of the light spear was also very terrifying. Most of them were evaporated directly. It is impossible to count the number of dead. Only more than 100 of the injured were lucky to be on the edge of the light spear. Those who survived, the remaining [-] million people..., the light spear ignited the atmosphere, and various pollutants entered the hives that have not been transformed through the atmosphere. And your question, I have nothing to do recently, light The Spear has completely destroyed the planet's ecology, and no virus can survive in this environment."

Li Qinghui looked at Wang Ming. She reported the matter to Wang Ming. As a genetically enhanced human, her memory is also very good.

"All missing persons are defined as dead. If nothing happens, you can go to the No. 13 Regiment. They have something about you that is of interest to you."

After Wang Ming listened to Li Qinghui's report, he picked up the data tablet again and corrected the supply documents. In Wang Ming's mouth, there might be at least one billion deaths, as if it was a small matter.

"Those human beings are at least one billion, and there are so many deaths. Do you think it's that easy?"

Li Qinghui looked at Wang Ming and asked Wang Ming. In her impression, Wang Ming was not a cruel person.

"The population of Koledo is 2000 billion people. I need to be responsible for these people who survive."

Wang Ming didn't even raise his head. His words immediately silenced Li Qinghui. Li Qinghui nodded silently and then walked out of Wang Ming's office.
