Hammer 40k: Far East Storm

"After all, the enemy is a demon. Facing such a strange enemy, it is not too careful." Li said seriously: "We have to be careful too. If the enemy is not too unpredictable, I would have cut off William's head with a sword. You too, don't run around alone these days, follow me closely, if anything happens, I can take care of you."

Elizabeth realized that even Li in front of her lacked confidence, but for the two of them, the current situation is bad to a certain extent. The upcoming enemy is a demon, a deadly and terrible opponent. The powerful empire has fallen into such a broken state. These enemies in different spaces are mainly responsible. The comrades around the two are untrustworthy spirits. Once the other party knows the identities of Li and Elizabeth, they are also very terrible enemies. To describe the current situation of the two, it is most appropriate to use the words "surrounded by enemies and no way to escape". Elizabeth nodded, "I understand." Then she really set up camp in Li's room and stayed there.

The next morning, William rushed to Li's room again with a swollen pig head. As soon as he stepped into the door, he felt the fierce gaze of the war witch in the room.

"Go out, knock on the door and come in again."

"Hey!"

This time William was much more honest. He retreated obediently. After knocking on the door, he heard the voice from the room: "Come in." Then he pushed the door open.

After entering the room, William stood obediently with his hands hanging down, as if he wanted to say something, but couldn't speak.

So Li could only sigh and ask, "William, why did you come to me again? Didn't the duel yesterday end? Are you dissatisfied and want to challenge me again?"

"No, no, no, that's not the case." William is very interested in dueling with the strong, because defeating the strong and stepping on the seemingly superior people always gives him great satisfaction physically and mentally, and it is a good way to prove his self-worth and whether he is strong. However, William has no interest in being beaten blindly. In yesterday's duel, William had deeply felt the strength of the opponent. From the beginning to the end, this war witch did not leave him any chance. Looking back, the more he thought about it, the more scared he was. There were even many details that he couldn't figure out no matter what, such as why his wrist became sore and weak in an instant? He couldn't even hold the slightly light star dart gun. The moment he woke up from the coma, William could be said to be disheartened. If he couldn't hold the star dart gun for the rest of his life, then what was the meaning of his life? Fortunately, the soreness and weakness recovered after a night's rest. After getting up this morning, I recovered as before, and there was no sign of injury at all. What does this mean? This means that the opponent is so strong that it has exceeded my limit. In my recollection afterwards, I don't even know what means the opponent used to defeat me. With such a huge gap in strength, the opponent even has means that I can't understand. In this case, no matter how many times the duel is fought, the result will not change at all.

Just being beaten up is already the opponent's mercy. Of course, maybe the elves of Alaitok are all like this and will not kill their own people in a duel at will, but Semhan is not such a custom. Every year, many Semhan warriors lose their lives because of duels. Although the patriarch has proposed more than once that the winner is not determined by life and death, and the party that sheds the first drop of blood is the loser, how many people can hold back in a real duel? Once injured, it will definitely not be just a drop of blood. Besides, William could not forget the sword that was inserted close to his nose. At that moment, his life was in the hands of the seemingly harmless war wizard in front of him.

"Please believe me, Mr. Ryan. I am definitely not dissatisfied with the result of yesterday and continue to harass you," William tried very hard to squeeze out a sincere expression on his face that was swollen like a pig's head. He said seriously: "The result of the duel is obvious. I will not say anything else shamelessly. Losing is losing. Your strength is much stronger than mine. I am convinced."

Li's heart suddenly felt much better. "Alas, if you had this attitude yesterday, the situation yesterday would not have happened. Are you okay? Your face still seems a little..."

"It's okay, it's okay. Thank you for your mercy yesterday. It's all right after just one day of rest. It's just that the face is a little swollen. It's just a small problem. Rest for a few days That's good."

"Well, that's good. Then, what's your purpose?"

"It's really hard to say, but I have to say it. Although you won a complete victory in yesterday's duel, I will not give up the position of leader in this camp. After all, this involves my promise. I must do more for this camp and lead the soldiers here to victory, otherwise I will not repay the debt of gratitude. I know it," William bent down deeply, blushing and embarrassedly said: "This is not in line with the spirit of duel, but I really can't lose the position of leader. Lord Weisen has given me an order, and I have also patted my chest to make a promise. I will complete it even if I risk my life, but now..."

"This..." Li finally understood, "Maybe in your Semhan side, the winner of the duel should get rights and honors, and even everything from the other party, but personally, I don't have much regard for these. I'm very interested. Besides, I'm not used to the music of the Bonesinger, so you don't have to think too much. If the Battle of Siwison gives you an order, then you are the leader of this camp. Just do what you want. , don’t estimate me.”

"Is that so? You are really, well, what can I say, Mr. Ryan, you are so magnanimous, I am so moved that I really don't know what to say. How can I repay such kindness?" William sighed. He took a breath and said seriously: "In any case, please rest assured, I, William the Tyrannosaurus, of course, I will not mention this title in front of you. I, William, am definitely not a shameless Spirit Tribe. As a strong warrior of Sam, "What I value most is debt. I will definitely repay those who are kind to me. Don't worry, I will definitely repay you."

"In this case, I will definitely tell you directly when necessary."

The atmosphere was extremely good for a moment. It seemed that after being beaten up by Li, William suddenly turned into a reasonable and super good person. During this period, Elizabeth would occasionally insert a few words, cleverly Provoking the topic and guiding the atmosphere, the guide William kept talking unknowingly, while Li just kept smiling most of the time and was an excellent listener. In this case, the atmosphere was natural. It was getting better and better, and later on, William was even interested in drinking blood with the War Witch Ruin and forming a blood pact.

However, an unexpected incident interrupted this refreshing conversation. The camp suddenly became panicked. There were panicked sounds outside the room. Those outstanding soldiers were now panicking around in the camp. Running, screaming.

"Something happened!"

Needless to say, the three of them rushed out of the door quickly. At this time, it was pitch black outside the room. Above their heads were two bright moons belonging to Eden. The sky was filled with stars. This was supposed to be a peaceful day. night. But on the left side that was visible, the sky was a bright red.

Li quickly led Elizabeth to the city wall on the left. On top of the tall tower, he could clearly see what was happening in the distance. Large tracts of forest were burning, and the hot flames were unnatural. The flames ignited, licking the sky, dyeing the whole sky red. The ground beneath the forest was shaking and cracking, revealing huge and ferocious wounds, with lava and flames constantly shooting out of them.

"What's going on?" William also stood aside, looking at the sky in the distance that was already red with flames in amazement, "How could the forest suddenly catch fire, and what about the flames and magma underground? I Remember there is no magma activity underground here?”

"It's not natural," Li sighed and said, "Look carefully at the shape of the flame..."

Only then did William take a closer look at the most conspicuous thing, the unnatural pillar of fire rising into the sky. The beating flames showed the shape of a ferocious demon's head under the red sky. "Goddess Isa," William murmured unconsciously: "How could this happen? How could the flame change into this shape!? Yes, Ryan, you are right, this is not natural, the enemy has appeared Yes, those evil spirits are greeting us in this way."

"The enemy arrived earlier than we expected. The prophets and war commanders have failed in their duties, but fortunately the enemy should not be able to launch an attack yet. They just want to cause us chaos," Li said calmly: "William, Now is the time for you to perform. First let the camp stabilize and eliminate the panic. Then you should lead the Bonesingers to work overtime. Our progress is already far behind. We must hurry up before the enemy appears in front of us. , let the fortifications be completed. It is best to use up all the materials you brought. The more and stronger the fortifications, the safer we will be and the less blood we will shed during the battle."
