Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 144 Start of War (6) Decisive Battle and Dirge
boom!
The warhammer and the power ax collided head-on, and the 3.5-meter silver giant wrestled closely with the God's Chosen champion who was blessed with Khorne's blessing. The distance was less than half a meter, and as they stared at each other, the two could hear each other's breathing.

The balance of the pure force confrontation was maintained for less than half a second. Calvin, who exerted strength again, overturned the opponent. Before he could pursue him, the bullets covered by the veterans behind Talos had already reached him.

The right hand wearing the lightning claw stretched out, and at least 50 explosive bombs on the spiritual shield in front of him were relentlessly burning with tail flames.And one step ahead of that is the shameful close-range sneak attack of the plasma pistol.

Looking up, Talos, who had rolled back and stood up, was putting away the plasma pistol in his hand.

Obviously, even without the cover of these veterans, the Khorne champion in front of him still has his own means of saving his life.

"Bah! Your hearts are really dirty in playing tactics!"

His eyes were locked on Talos, and he spat on the ground casually. Amidst the crackling sound of ground corrosion, Calvin calmly put down his hand stretched to his waist.

In the next second, the silver figure that exploded again rushed towards Talos through the locks of several bolt guns.Behind the two fighting together, the Terminators of the Gray Knights and the Chaos Space Marines also entered into a brutal melee.

boom!boom!boom!boom!
The battle between the two giants became fierce, and the sound of huge weapon collisions and the storm raged around them.

One side has strange strength and agility far beyond comprehension, and the other side is the main choice of the blood god who has won the blessing of Khorne through endless killings by relying on martial arts.

One blow from Calvin's warhammer was faster than one blow, and the weight of the "mission" became heavier and heavier. Talos, who relied on his superiority in martial arts and was able to balance offense and defense, quickly fell into a situation where he defended more and attacked less.

He is quite resistant to this thing!

Calvin had no expression on his face, but he was amazed at the opponent's skill in his heart. Can he be said to be the winner of the bloody battle?The champion swordsman really has two brushes!
The opponent is one-third different in strength and is close to being crushed in the confrontation, but he can still entangle him with martial arts and routines.If it's another person, it's really not necessarily beneficial.He was surprised in his heart, but he didn't know that the other party was even more entangled than him.

"What the hell is this?"

Talos thought to himself.

Almost crushing power and demigod-like keen insight, it is difficult to parry head-on, skills and routines can only be used once, if you dare to do it again, no matter how you change the combination, you will definitely be seen through.

Is this memorizing all the details of his exertion?This kind of learning ability in this environment!And the most hateful thing is, what kind of look is this!

If it wasn't for the fact that the other party didn't have that iconic subspace essence seed, he would have thought he was fighting a Primarch.

Especially the combination of the war hammer and lightning claws, if it wasn't for the obvious difference between Calvin's armor color and his stature one size smaller, he almost thought he saw the blue figure again.

Do not!Father is much stronger than him!It doesn't even have to be God the Father!At this moment, whichever Primarch stood in front of him, he couldn't hold it for a round!

He shook his head invisibly, shaking the previous absurd thoughts out of his mind.

The shepherd god is dead, he is already an orphan without a father.He doesn't want to be involved in Abaddon's shit, so let him go!

Now he just wants to bring his brothers to beg for a bowl of food. As for when he will die in battle, it depends on fate.

He couldn't be distracted anymore. He had no chance and no right to think about such an enemy face to face.

In a few seconds of confrontation, the strength and agility that he relied on for a living and was proud of were completely suppressed.If it weren't for the fact that he still has the skills honed in countless bloody battles over the past ten thousand years, he would almost have been killed on the spot.

collapse!
The old Talos was wiped by the flying "Mission", the folded force field on the shoulder armor was overloaded instantly, the thick Gothic shoulder armor was slightly deformed, and the octagonal rune of Khorne was replaced by the Warhammer at the position originally marked by the Legion. The edges and corners were scraped and shattered, revealing the Moon Reflecting Wolf that hadn't seen the sun for a long time.

Really!Long time no see mark ah!

Talos, who came back to his senses, had no intention of fighting again. After resisting Calvin's next claw attack with all his strength, he looked at his comrades beside him.

The veterans have long been paying attention to his movements, and they are not very optimistic about this battle.But the trust in this elder brother who led them through countless bloody battles made them suffer casualties again and again in silence.

"Go! You can't die here!"

The moment they received Talos' gaze, these veterans covered each other's dislocations with amazing tacit understanding. At the cost of three deaths and three injuries, they abruptly cut off the pursuit of the gray knights and opened the battle distance.

So far in the battle, the gray knights have already paid for the lives of three paladins, and everyone else is dying.

The situation of the Chaos Space Marines of the Khorne Warband is even worse. There were 20 of them when they came, but now there are less than ten of them who can stand up.

Calvin, who still wanted to chase again, stopped his pursuit under the cover of the bombs that the veterans desperately covered.

He looked at Talos, who had retreated to the demon camp on both sides, and sighed.

It's not impossible to kill hard, but with the crowd of demons around, if the method of teleportation, which has been used once, is used on this group of veterans again, he may be prepared to lose both sides.

The mortal legion ahead was still in crisis, and Calvin didn't have time to pester them.He glanced at the direction where Talos got out of the way, and there was no obstacle there now except for some demon soldiers.

It's cheap for you!

"Let's go!" Calvin waved his hand, and the honor guards came forward to gather, and after replenishing the guns of the Chaos Space Warriors that Talos and others failed to take away, they dragged the bodies of the three Chaos Terminator, and brought the dead three The remains of two members were killed towards the outside of the cave.

And among the group of demons on the side, the unwilling figure in the crimson horned helmet can still be vaguely seen.

"No! My brother!"

The demon camp in the valley is in chaos, and the big demons are cleaning up military discipline in anger.

Well, military discipline is really too difficult for them. It can only be said that the big demons use their authority to maintain the basic order.

The news that the portal of the subspace is sealed does not need to be deliberately spread.

After all, when the subspace fluctuations permeating the surface of the entire planet began to dissipate, the natives of these subspaces were like sea fish breaking into the sea, and immediately noticed the strangeness in the air.

Being blocked on the way home is a secondary problem, as long as the demons live long enough, they will have the opportunity to experience the experience of being banished back to the warp after destroying it.

But the side effect of the portal being closed makes them unacceptable. After all, it has been nearly a year since they arrived in this barren land, and most demons have never even smelled the smell of blood. Makes the demons weak.

Previously, they were supplemented by the subspace energy swallowed by the Chaos Gate, and their weakness was not too obvious. When this supplement was cut off, the demons who had been suppressed for too long began to clamor one after another.

The demon's army formation began to shake, and malicious eyes began to focus on the leading officer among the shadows.

They haven't dared to look rebelliously at the chaos lord on the high platform yet, but if this chaos is allowed to continue, it will be a matter of time before the sword of regicide is raised. After all, this is the famous chaos that conquers the next, isn't it?

The Chaos Lord of Khorne sent out all his personal guards. On the one hand, he used internal killings to suppress the chaos of the demons, and on the other hand, he sent elite troops back to check the specific situation.

As for its real body, it led the main force in the base camp to press on the whole line.

The back road has been cut off, so the goal ahead will never allow any mistakes!
If something went wrong, he couldn't even imagine what kind of ridicule he would face from his colleagues and how harshly the Father would deal with him when he returned to the Brass Throne.

The first big monster in history who was trapped and died on the surface because there was no spaceship?Just imagine, it can hear the churning of blood in its own brain!

Calvin had already led his gray knights out of the battlefield at this time. After killing the last wave of chasing enemies, he selected three gray knights to take care of the bodies of their dead comrades. The Thunderhawk on the track had already set off. Its mission is to ensure survival, to ensure that the Chapter's valuable wealth is not lost.

Not only is it a matter of recovering the precious gene seeds, but also the Holy Shield Terminator must be recovered.

In this dark age, every Terminator is precious equipment, even if the equipment is as rich as the Gray Knights, they are not willing to easily discard these inherited equipment with the blood of their predecessors.

As for the remaining nine people, Calvin could only let them follow him to the other side of the valley after a short rest after several times of persuasion to no avail.

The crimson wave swept again. In the eyes of the outpost soldiers of the mortal legion, this time the offensive was more powerful and terrifying than the one half an hour ago.

The demonic formation in the center of the valley also joined this attack, and the bloody banner that symbolized the Lord of Chaos with skulls hanging on it also moved forward with the formation.

Tzeentch's big demon roared and released all the magic power. Under the wave of the magic staff with the evil code, one after another, portals and demons appeared around the mortal army formation.

The camps of Slaanesh and Nurgle also feel the pressure of survival and are not paddling.Numerous purple demons, led by Slaanesh himself, attacked mortals amid delirious noises and visions.

Nurgle's darling is no longer smiling. He clumsily waved a branch-like staff with his stubby hands. With the help of the wind, the green plague cloud and the looming Nurgle spirits and Nurgle beasts moved towards the valley. The end floats away.

The group of demons danced wildly, the war roar of Khorne demons and the groans of Slaanesh demons, the hoarseness of Tzeentch demons and the whispers of Nurgle demons filled the space in the second half of the valley.

Under the overwhelming offensive, some of the weak-willed among the soldiers of the Mortal Legion could no longer maintain their will, and their collapsed souls were instantly swept away by the surging waves of the subspace. The political commissar executed him immediately without mercy.

At this moment, all the soldiers guarding the front line in silence, the officers preparing to command at the trench nodes, and the decision makers in the rear headquarters all looked at the oncoming demon tide.

The troops have been supplemented and rested, but the opponent has also put all their chips on the table.

The last reserve team was exhausted. At this time, the defense with the frontline troops should have been completed. The shattered formation and the wounded did not retreat to the rear, but chose to reorganize on the spot under the call of the soldiers to participate in the next battle.

They all knew clearly that this was the decisive battle.

The power of war and blasphemy is violently surging in the ocean of ether, and the rationality of order and the distortion of chaos are clearly distinct and strong at this moment.

Under the shaking of the balance of the power of fate, the eyes of the evil god began to look here. Amidst countless prayers, on the distant Terra, the golden figure also woke up from a deep sleep. His deep gaze also looked at the distant place. Storm Star Domain.

This is a corner of the countless chess games that are going on or have been played between them in the long river of time, but it is also the powerful counterattack and unyielding cry of the overall will of mankind against the evil god's tentacles.

"Blood for the blood god! Skull for the skull throne!" (Blood for the blood god! Skull for the skull throne!)
"For the emperor!!!" (For the emperor!)
The war started the moment the blood tide reached the front line, and reached its climax in an instant!
The shouts of mortals resounded weakly but resolutely through the entire battle line amidst the overwhelming battle cry of the blood god!

The soldiers in the front row don't care about the cooling of the hell gun. After the bayonet is mounted, the speed machine is directly adjusted to the automatic shooting position. When you fire with your eyes closed, you don't need to worry about shooting empty!
The hot wire platoon gun is the same as the melta weapon. Against the background of the energy cooling duct that becomes hot and red in a short time, it outputs firepower with all its strength.

When the spare barrels were also red, they pulled out their pistols and started walking towards the front-line infantry!

bullet!Grenade!bayonet!teeth!This is their sequence of arms!

Countless demons fell under these hatred-filled shots, but more demons pushed them away impatiently before they fell and continued to charge!

The Hydra anti-aircraft tank roared angrily, and the screecher demon covering the sky completely unleashed the tyranny in the machine soul!
The heavy artillery regiment is no longer hiding their deployment positions, and when all ammunition is empty, they receive the final order!

But this is still difficult to stop the tide of demons. After all, even the lord of Khorne has brought his brass guards to the front of the battle line to open the way for the demon army.

The demons are so desperate, and the mortals are not much less.

When the final order was conveyed, the veterans in the headquarters who were over half a century old were also packing their weapons. They also wanted to die in a glorious charge at the last moment, rather than being shamefully captured.

The shouts of killing three kilometers away are getting closer and closer, and they need to catch up with the sacrifices of those children before their comrades have gone far.

The guards were helping these old men who had not fought for a long time to organize their outfits, and they also believed that under the emperor's seat, they still needed the guidance of these veterans.

Just when these veterans were packing up and preparing to head to the front line with the guards directly under the legion, the lead gray tent was pulled away by a big silver hand.

The gray knights who just passed through the flanks of the demon tide and met the surprised eyes of countless demons arrived here just in time.

"Who is the highest person in charge!" Calvin wiped off the devil blood on his face, and asked in a deep voice amidst many inconceivable eyes.

　Two in one, ask for votes.
