Warhammer, but Emperor's Chosen
Page 15
However, the aliens were far more familiar with this starport than the Ultramarines had expected, and every time they passed a corridor they would disperse, until there were Genestealers in every corridor, until the Space Marines who had vowed to annihilate them all were forced to disperse.
These cunning aliens will even hide on the ceiling in the corners of the corridor and launch surprise attacks on the pursuing Ultramarines!
Fortunately, the Ultramarines never underestimated the cunning of these aliens. With their rich experience, they were able to easily counter the sneak attacks. Although a few Space Marines still had their power armor scratched by the claws of the aliens, this did not endanger their lives.
At the same time, reinforcements of the Extreme Marines also came from all directions, forcing these aliens into no way to escape and annihilating them one by one.
boom!
In the warehouse on the lower level of the starport, Titus and his two battle brothers stopped at the same time.
In front of them were hundreds of Genestealers that had assembled at some point in time!
It is not known whether they had been waiting here from the beginning, or whether they had quietly assembled here by using the terrain during their dispersal.
Chapter 23: There is no need to talk about the code of conduct when dealing with aliens. Everyone fights together.
Quiet, noisy.
The empty warehouse is shrouded in these two diametrically opposite states at the same time.
Titus clenched his chainsaw sword, the hum of the chainsaw making it almost impossible to hear the noise of the power armor. On the other side of him, hundreds of chicken thieves were staring at them with eyes full of murderous desire, and low roars came out of their sharp mouths.
But they did not launch a rash attack, and all of them guarded the largest alien.
Titus did not launch an attack immediately. In the previous battle, he and his brothers had already used up all their ammunition. As the aliens were escaping in all directions, they were too busy chasing them to have time to resupply. The total amount of ammunition left by the three of them was less than half of the amount of the thief.
If a conflict occurs at this time, being dragged into close combat by the alien will become inevitable.
By then, casualties are inevitable.
therefore.
The best option is to wait for reinforcements to arrive.
The other scattered chicken thieves had already been slaughtered by other battle brothers, and more battle brothers were rushing towards them. As long as they waited a few more minutes, they could concentrate their forces to wipe out these gene stealers.
Titus was not a reckless person, so he knew what measures he should take now.
He didn't need to wipe out all these aliens, he just needed to hold them off until reinforcements arrived.
however.
Aliens are not fools.
They won't stand here stupidly and waste time with them.
Titus knew that they wanted to protect the patriarch and escape from the starport, and they also knew that Titus was waiting for reinforcements.
and so--
The Genestealer leader suddenly let out a sharp roar, and the hundreds of aliens surrounding him immediately rushed towards Titus and the other two. The Genestealer leader himself decisively abandoned his other "compatriots" and quickly left with a few Genestealers.
But even if they were abandoned, these aliens still launched attacks fearlessly.
They have absolutely no negative emotions such as fear and despair, they are just pure killing machines!
puff!
boom!
Titus raised his chainsaw sword and chopped a Genestealer in half, then knocked another away with his shoulder armor. The alien's sharp claws scratched across his chest, leaving three narrow scratches on the breastplate, and blood seemed to be flowing out, but it quickly coagulated before it gushed out.
But this did not stop Titus at all. He continued to run forward quickly facing the claws of the huge number of Genestealers.
His two battle brothers drew their bolt pistols to provide cover for him. Although each bullet could accurately kill an alien, the aliens still surrounded them with their absolute advantage in numbers, drowning them in a wave of alien roars and claws.
Titus didn't care about the safety of his two battle brothers, or even the alien that was turning from the ceiling to chase him.
He must find a way to kill the alien leader!
If you can't kill it, then at least find a way to delay it until reinforcements arrive, even at the cost of your life!
Several aliens who were covering the escape of the Genestealer leader noticed the Space Marine's intention and immediately gave up the plan to escape with the leader. They turned around and roared towards Titus, attacking him from the front and back together with the aliens who were chasing the Space Marine!
Titus's expression darkened. The Space Marine, who was running at full speed, stomped on the ground to stop himself. He swung his chainsword and cut off the head of a Genestealer from its body in the blink of an eye. He then took the opportunity to chop the body of another Genestealer, tearing it in half from the waist.
But there were too many Genestealers. Another one swooped down from the ceiling and pierced his head with its sharp claws!
Titus immediately turned his head away. Before he was hit, he had already deduced the outcome in his mind - the alien's claws could easily penetrate his power armor, but would never kill him. At most, it would only pierce his neck and shoulders.
The Marine's tolerance for pain will allow him to survive the blow, the bleeding will quickly stop, and his counterattack will be swift and powerful enough to kill the Genestealer.
But his situation was still not optimistic. He didn't think that the two battle brothers surrounded by dozens of Genestealers could provide him with cover. It was even unknown whether they could survive.
So he could only rely on himself to kill these aliens and continue hunting down the Genestealer leader.
He will win.
Even if this leaves him bruised and battered, he will still win!
呲!
As he expected, the alien's sharp claws failed to pierce his head, but as he tilted his head, pierced into the gap between his left shoulder armor and helmet, penetrating deep into his flesh.
Then, the alien only needed to rip his left arm off along with half of his body with a single swipe, but before that could happen, Titus's chainsword was already buzzing.
boom!
A blue plasma ball exploded at the tail of the alien, hitting the alien's body accurately and shattering its lower body. Even the flesh and blood that should have splattered everywhere was evaporated, and the high-temperature air burned Titus's wound and skin through the gaps in the power armor pierced by the alien, and the melted flesh and blood "stuck" into one piece in an instant.
But because of this, his wound, which could not be healed quickly even with an Astartes' superhuman body, was forcibly 'healed' - although it was a bit painful.
Titus looked in the direction where the plasma beam was coming from. The plasma gun was held in the hand of the Rogue Trader whom he had seen in the conference room.
Beside him were several combat nuns wearing power armor.
Their bolters continued to fire, providing cover and support for Titus and the two surrounded NCOs.
The support came so timely that Titus could not help but feel lucky. Even if his death could hinder the aliens from escaping and buy time for other battle brothers to kill the Genestealer leader, it was still not an honorable death.
In addition, the Sisters of Battle were the first to discover the aliens and engage in fire with them. They were in the battle from the beginning, so Titus was not averse to the support of the Rogue Traders.
But the premise is that -
Titus stared at the Genestealer leader in front of him with his scarlet tactical eyepiece.
The aliens around it had been turned into ashes by several plasma beams, and the Genestealer leader had become a complete lone commander.
Although Titus was puzzled as to why the Rogue Trader's plasma gun could fire continuously with the laser gun, there was something more important now -
"Alien, die!"
Titus's roar came out from the helmet. Perhaps because the helmet was damaged, his voice carried a strong sense of electricity.
Noah originally wanted to end the battle with one charged shot, but when he saw Titus charging, he gave up his original plan and switched to a normal single shot - this was not enough to kill the Genestealer leader, but it could hinder its movements and create a chance for Titus to have a 'fair' duel with it.
After all, the last person who interrupted someone else's duel and stole the head was Old Man Huang, and the person he interrupted was Mortarion. This incident became Mortarion's heart disease, the kind that he would talk about for the rest of his life.
Although Old Man Huang did objectively save Mortarion's life, and although this was not the direct reason why Mortarion betrayed Old Man Huang, it is hard to say that this incident had no impact on his betrayal - even if it was Chapter Master Tyfas who caused the fall of First Captain Mortarion, don't you, Old Man Huang, have no responsibility at all?
and so.
Since Titus wants to duel, let him duel.
But since it's a fair duel, then it's reasonable for him and Titus to fight two against one, right?
Chapter 24 Lend Me Your Head
boom!
The huge body of the Ultramarines Titus, wearing power armor, fell to the ground. His breastplate was pierced by the sharp claws of the Chicken Chief. His heart stopped beating completely and his breathing almost stopped.
But the price Titus paid was undoubtedly worth it. The headless body of the Genestealer Chief, which was even larger than the Dreadnought, fell beside him, and his heart had already stopped beating.
And the price was not unacceptable, for he was still alive.
A super warrior with two hearts and three lungs, his vitality is so tenacious that it is a little scary.
In fact, Titus didn't need to be injured so badly, Noah could have blown off the thief's head with a charged plasma. But because he kept giving up heads, the battle became extremely tense.
When the battle on their side was over, the support of the Ultramarines finally arrived, and Titus and his two battle-brothers were handed over to the pharmacist who arrived for first aid.
The good news is that they are all alive, and apart from multiple fatal injuries, they are in good health and do not need to enter Dauntless.
The bad news is that Titus is seriously injured and may need a long period of recuperation to recover.
But considering that the Ultramarines generally have the characteristics of ICU God of War, how long this "long time" is is also worth discussing.
The aliens' sneak attack ended in failure, leaving behind tens of thousands of corpses, and even the leader was killed by Titus. But in order to win this battle, the Ultramarines also suffered serious injuries to several of their battle brothers, and even two of their battle brothers were killed while chasing the Genestealers.
Although the exchange ratio was very high, Captain Calgar was not very happy.
On the one hand, he already knew the exaggerated scale of the aliens, and tens of thousands of Genestealers were just the tip of the iceberg. There were more aliens on the way, but the number of Ultramarines was extremely limited, and the casualties of any battle brother would be irreparable losses.
On the other hand, these aliens infiltrated into the Heroku Starport right under his nose, but he didn't notice it at all. This undoubtedly exposed a huge security loophole within the Extreme Warriors, and someone in the upper echelons must have been infiltrated by the aliens!
Otherwise, they would not have had such accurate intelligence, let alone been so familiar with the terrain of the star port.
He has already ordered the starport to be blocked, and all personnel must be subject to review by the Extreme Marines until the traitor is found!
"Thank you again, Your Excellency von Valancius, even though I have said it too many times."
Calgar walked up to Noah and said in a deep voice:
"No matter what the outcome, you have already earned the friendship of the Ultramarines. My promise will always stand!"
If the Rogue Merchant had not risked his life to bring them intelligence, and if the Battle Sisters under him had not discovered the aliens' tracks in advance, once the aliens got close to him and other Space Marines, they would almost certainly have been dragged into a bloody battle by their numerical advantage, resulting in heavy casualties.
If this really happened, Macragge, without the command of its officers, would definitely not be able to stop the Tyranids' surging attack. There was no need to wait for the main force of the Hive Fleet to arrive, these Genestealers alone could seize the entire planet!
Although the main force of the Tyranids has not yet arrived, Noah has in fact saved the Ultramarines!
This was worth the promise Calgar made to him, a promise from the Ultramarines.
Even if Macragge is finally lost, even if they all die in battle, the Ultramarines' promise will never be voided. When Noah needs them, the Ultramarines will respond to him!
"That is what I am supposed to do, Chapter Master Calgar."
Noah performed the Eagle Salute with an extremely pious look:
"For the Emperor!"
"For the Emperor." Calgar said seriously.
-----------------
Shilok Starport.
After bidding farewell to Captain Calgar, Noah returned to the room that the Ultramarines had arranged for him. His navigator was already waiting for him there. Ajetta was not there because she was busy helping the Ultramarines to eliminate the thieves who had split up into small groups and were lurking.
As one of the first people to participate in the battle, it is not easy to escape from the battle.
After all, the battle sisters also have their own glory.
"Noah, how did I perform?" Cassia blinked expectantly, her eyelashes fluttering.
"Cassia."
Noah praised softly, "You did a great job. If you hadn't discovered the alien attack in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous!"
"Yeah~! This is what I should do." Cassia smiled happily like a child who was praised by his parents, and his eyes curved into crescent shapes.
The girl raised her chin and put her head in front of Noah, as if asking for a reward.
Of course, Noah would not reject her without knowing how to be romantic. He reached out and gently stroked the girl's cheek, saying softly:
"Thanks for your hard work."
"Hmm~"
A delicate blush appeared on Cassia's cheeks. She actually wanted Noah to reward her by patting her on the head.
But isn't this better?
The girl's body softened and she snuggled in Noah's arms like a docile kitten.
