Warhammer: I live under the watchful eyes of the gods

Chapter 106 "Duke"'s Conspiracy (Character Single Chapter)
At this time, some time has passed since Duke escaped from Karl's clutches.

But at this moment, he could no longer be called a "person" at all.

In other words, when the last "curse" from the scarlet moon came to him, Duke had already anticipated everything in front of him.

The dilapidated armored train is burning blazingly in the desolate and lonely radiation wasteland.

The "squeak" sound from time to time, as well as the wailing sound from some undead "garbage", stimulated Duke's eardrums all the time.

(Damn it, can't you be quiet!)
Due to absorbing a large amount of Khorne energy, and having just gone through a massacre, Duke at this time can be said to be extremely emotionally unstable.

At this time, Duke, like a powder keg with all insurances removed, exploded at the first touch.

In this case, it would be futile even if Duke hinted that he should calm down all the time.

Duke, who squeezed out a sneer, waved his wings and lifted himself up gently.

It's a wonderful feeling.

At least it's different from when Duke was a demon host before.

Feeling the bloody and scorched wind blowing over his face, he felt unprecedented freedom at this moment.

Yes, just freedom.

Slowly flying to a certain prey that had been howling, Duke looked it over carefully.

At first, he also felt a little excitement because of this bloody scene.

But soon, a sincere disgust emerged from the bottom of his heart.

Cowardly, weak, treacherous.

A human being, a creature full of weaknesses, is simply not worthy of living.

The sharp claws in his hand swung down, and the whole world finally returned to silence.

Licking the trace of warm blood on the sharp claw with the tip of his tongue that had already become sharp, Duke showed a satisfied smile, as if he had just finished an excellent work of art.

"Fly along this railway and you will be able to reach Hive Capital B-23, right?"

At this time, Duke was a little uncertain, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, all the living people in the car had been made perfect sacrifices by Duke.

Feeling the rising aura in his body, suddenly a strange question popped up in his mind.

(Who am I hiding from?)

At this moment in his chaotic brain, those thoughts about cowardice and escape have long been discarded.

Even the fear he had experienced was almost lost.

But even so, whenever Duke looked down, the truly "unforgettable" warning words on his chest were warning him not to look back all the time.

"Roar!"

Duke, who was extremely upset, let out a roar full of anger.

This is Duke venting his frustration.

But even so, he still chose to believe in the warning left by himself when he was awake.

But just when Duke was about to continue along the "railway" to the B-23 hive, a heavy ammunition belt suddenly hit his wing.

For a moment, Duke felt as if he had been hit by a dump truck, and he lost his balance in the air.

But it was also Duke who lost his balance and fell from the sky, which caused the "speedboat" floating in the air to lose its shooting angle.

This gunboat looks like it was refitted from a civilian transport ship in the atmosphere. If we have to talk about its appearance, it is a miniature version of the Thunderhawk gunboat spelled out of "cyber waste".

And the most characteristic of the beggars is that there are no weapons of all kinds that should have sufficient firepower.

Except for the two cannons, which are about 60-80mm by visual inspection, there are no other weapons on this mini Beggar Thunderhawk gunboat.

To be precise, it is not called a gunboat, but a flying scout ship.

However, if it is said that this thing is effective in beating those gangsters in the "wasteland", then it is not enough for Duke who wants to use this thing to fight the strength of the high-level demons at this time.

In the beginning, it was not so much that the gunboat knocked Duke down, it was better to say that the gunboat broke the balance that Duke had managed to maintain and made him fall down by himself.

Seeing Duke falling downward, the gunboat even started a dive pursuit.

Feeling the shells hitting his body, which could even scratch a little skin, Duke's eyes were filled with bloodthirsty red light again.

Yes, what a boring thing it is to fight those prey who can't even struggle for a second.

Only when facing an opponent who can really break his defense, can he feel a sense of excitement that he has not seen for a long time.

"boom"

With a dull sound, Duke finally fell hard to the ground.

And it seemed that the gunboat was still a little worried, and its drivers even continued to fire towards Duke.

Feeling the pain coming from his body, he showed a cruel smile.

(Ps: If Franco is here, then Franco will find that part of his dream seems to be right, but the protagonist of the incident is not Karl.)
Turning over, Duke immediately got ready to jump.

Squinting his eyes, a trace of killing intent escaped from the corners of his eyes.

Seeing the right moment, Duke kicked his back foot hard, and in an instant, his whole body was like an arrow that left the string, and rushed straight towards the gunboat at an incredible speed.

Of course, speed is relative.

Under Duke's "secondary acceleration", these bullets that could only scratch his skin hurt even more.

Tiny blood flowers gradually bloomed all over Duke's body as he sprinted.

But these gradually aggravating injuries did not affect his actions in the slightest.

On the contrary, under this stimulation, he became more and more excited.

"Roar!"

Accompanied by Duke's venting roar, the improvised gunboat instantly fell apart.

And he, who happened to be suspended in the sky, suddenly saw a base-style building in the distance.

Duke, who had already "entered the state", would not let go of this group of "sacrifices" who should have been sacrificed to Lord Khorne.

At this moment, after dealing with the annoying gunboat, he is completely invincible.

With the roar of death, he flew straight towards the distant base.

And when Duke charged into the crowd, it was a foregone conclusion.

The screams, the begging, the shooting, he didn't care.

Waving his sharp claws, enjoying the bloodiest sacrifice, offering the best sacrifice to Khorne, this is his first consideration.

It was also in this endless madness that Duke finally handed over the control of his body completely to the killing instinct.

…………

After an unknown amount of time, Duke slowly woke up at the top of a pyramid.

Looking at the "perfect and bloody" sacrificial altar below him, Duke's desire to kill was temporarily satisfied.

But just as he was about to get up and leave, a pipeline buried in a pile of headless corpses caught his attention.

(An energy fluid delivery pipeline, or is it leading to Hive City B-13?)
In an instant, a bold idea appeared in the mind of Duke who had just regained his sanity.

And just when Duke was about to put a delay bomb into the energy pipeline through the valve, he suddenly felt a little displeasure from the "Master".

The Lord does not like such dirty and degrading means.

But looking down at the "claw tattoo" tattooed on his body, Duke finally made his "own" choice.

All factors affecting Duke's revenge will be ruled out, and the Lord must be pleased only after he cuts off the heads of those people with his own hands.

Although I don't know why at this very moment, Duke's mind suddenly became very clear, but at least he thinks that he has made "his own" choice,
