Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 63 Corpse Tide and Hive City

The team is still moving forward, even if the number of rotting corpses and monsters in front of them has been incalculable, the rolling charge from the gray knight champion swordsmen can still cut a severe wound in the zombie tide every time.

Because the champion swordsmen have been assimilated by Calvin's spiritual energy for a long time, their spiritual attacks with a hint of order power are like a hot blade placed on a high mountain made of solidified grease. As long as they touch it slightly, These low-level rotting corpses can skip physical damage and directly disintegrate the opponent's soul.

Calvin's soul is receiving new supplements from the level of substance every moment. Although the quality is low, it is better than the quantity. His spiritual energy became more active, and the light of order in the spiritual world became more dazzling.

The battle seemed to be going well, but Calvin was not optimistic.

The battle continues, and as the spearhead of the team continues to cut in, the pressure on the entire team has actually shifted to the rear of the team.

Unable to compete with the champion swordsmen wearing Terminator power armor from the front, the demons naturally turned their attention to the interceptors at the back of the team.

In terms of defensive attributes, it is far less solid and reliable than the Terminators, and it is also required to retreat in the echelon to break the back of the entire team. In such a difficult battle, faced with waves of corpses, even though the interceptors were battle-hardened, they still inevitably began to suffer battle losses:

A rotten corpse with a skinny body but a big belly relied on the guidance of the wizard hidden in the corpse group, and quietly approached the interceptors' defense line under the cover of similar people.

The wizard used his dirty psychic energy to suppress the actions of these corpses that had only instincts left. He did not rush to charge with the trump card in his hand, but chose to wait for the opponent's next position change when the firepower was slightly weaker. With the cooperation of other wizards, he launched an attack.

In just a few breaths, the team in front completed another attack on the zombie tide and opened up a new space. Correspondingly, the interceptors began to prepare to retreat during a cross-cover.

The wizard who had been waiting for a long time behind the zombie wave took advantage of this opportunity and suddenly exerted his force, sending multiple psychic shocks towards a gray knight who was in a very poor position and was about to move.

The Gray Knights are extremely experienced. He gave up retreating as soon as he noticed the opponent's energy fluctuations, and instead chose to stay in place and wait for the cooperation of his teammates.

His teammates obviously had plans for such an accident. Three of them immediately stopped and turned to provide supporting fire support to the dragged comrade.

He himself did not sit still and wait for death, but immediately stretched his protection to the extreme in order to seek opportunities that might exist after the defense was successful.

The inner psychic energy rushed along the etheric cable in the power armor to the oath shield device on the left shoulder of the armor. The shining light emitted from this small shield-shaped device quickly expanded, and finally turned into a shield that could protect his whole body. Psychic barriers above and below.

At the same time, the purity marks inlaid on the Gray Knight's power armor seemed to sense the impending blasphemy, and began to spontaneously melt and burn to provide more protection for the Gray Knight.

The first wave of psychic attacks was eliminated invisible under the protection of shields and purity marks, but was followed closely by the self-destructive attack of at least ten rotten corpses carrying curses.

While resisting the pressure of the zombie tide, his comrades provided him with fire support as much as possible. Most of the self-destructing corpses were killed on the way to the charge.

However, three pot-bellied rotten corpses carrying vicious curses finally passed through the fire support of the Gray Knight teammates and rushed to the side of the Gray Knight. But only one wight was killed and dealt with by the Gray Knight in time.

"Bang~! Bang~!"

Following two low explosions that sounded like a ruptured bladder, a large amount of green pus and filth containing the power of blasphemy was sprayed all over the Gray Knight who had no time to dodge.

The psychic shield that had only a glimmer of light left on him completely broke after this.

Take advantage of his illness and kill him. The putrid evil flies that had been hovering in the sky rushed towards the gray knight who had lost his protection like a black cloud, wrapping him into a human-shaped object on the black ground.

And this gray knight could only use the last bit of spiritual energy in his body to release a weak shock wave to stop the flying flies for a moment, and then pounced on him again, drowning the gray knight in the black swarm of insects.

Such a complicated battle situation only happened in a split second when it actually happened. At this time, Calvin, who noticed the abnormality, had just rushed to the middle of the team from the front, still more than ten meters away from his comrade.

Calvin, whose eyes were splitting with blood, raised his right hand without any guidance at this moment, and the powerful white-gold power instantly gathered and formed in his lightning claws.

He pointed his hand hard at the Gray Knight in the distance, and a powerful shock wave penetrated and evaporated the multiple demons between them, hitting the Gray Knight who knew whether he was alive or dead.

The black insect swarm was wiped out by the impact of this energy, leaving only the warrior lying on the spot in a coma.

Calvin rushed to his side, grabbed his body and put it on his shoulders. He turned around and stared hard at the wizard leader who was slowly retreating among the corpses after missing.

Carrying the bodies of his comrades, he joined the remaining three Gray Knights who had broken off the rear and fought their way back to the front. After handing over the Gray Knight to the Arbiter, he turned back to look for traces of the other party, but the other party had already disappeared among the corpses.

Calvin understood the other party's intentions. They were doing everything possible to delay the Gray Knights.

And the interceptors know this very well. If it hadn't been for Calvin's forced rescue just now, I'm afraid this unconscious comrade would have been abandoned after the fire support from the three Gray Knights was ineffective.

This is not ruthless, but they clearly know their mission. From the first moment they set foot on this battlefield, everyone in this team had the consciousness of being abandoned.

Since the Inquisition can summon the Gray Knights to serve as the executors of this mission, the pollution of Chaos must have endangered the entire galaxy and even the Sector.

Compared with such imperial interests, except for Calvin, no one in this team can be sacrificed or abandoned.

Calvin no longer walked toward the front of the battle line. He began to wander behind the entire rear-cutting team with the fire support of the interceptors.

Bringing as many comrades back to Titan as possible is his biggest wish at this time...

Another hour passed, and at the front of the team, the charge of the champion swordsmen continued.

The obstruction of the zombie tide has also reached its peak. Calvin's psychic power is no longer retained. He leads the entire team to approach the target against the zombie tide with difficulty.

"This should be the last wave." An intuitive thought slipped through his mind.

Sure enough, when Calvin and his party finally arrived less than 100 meters away from the entrance to the hive, the zombie tide seemed to have reached the edge of its own range of activities and surprisingly faded away.

The tide of corpses suddenly stopped and faded at a certain moment, leaving only corpses on the ground and the Gray Knights standing in the shadow of the towering hive.

Calvin was a little uncomfortable with the sudden silence. He turned back to look at the empty and dark entrance to the freight elevator of the hive city, as if something more terrifying existed and entrenched within it.

Or maybe the hive itself is a life-devouring monster.

Thanks to Lao Wen and Yuzi for the 10,000 rewards.

I wrote it down in my little notebook, and I owe two chapters.

There will be another chapter later.
