Warhammer 40: Gods Of Mortals

Chapter 284 Mission
"Battlemaster!"

"Battlemaster!"

"..."

Dante felt someone shaking him and slowly opened his eyes.

Here are roads and rooms made of flesh and blood, like the interior of some large creature.

After two seconds of pause, Dante suddenly recalled that a giant insect had just come out from under the deck and swallowed many people. He and the people in front of him were swallowed.

The air is filled with biological toxins and is penetrating. Power armor cannot even isolate all these toxins.

A little bit of the poison wasn't enough to kill the Space Marines, but it was enough to knock them unconscious for a few minutes, which is why Dante was woken up.

"The insect swarm has discovered our presence, and the angry guy is blocking the insect swarm outside the battleship."

"We're underground, in the back half of the battleship."

"The think tank used psychic powers to kill the giant insect that swallowed us, but he seemed to be targeted by something and lost contact with us."

The soldiers of the Holy Blood Guard quickly reported the current situation to Dante.

Dante thought quickly and finally made the decision to evacuate: "We must leave here quickly to kill the Lord of the Swarm, we must be quick."

As he spoke, Dante stood up and counted the soldiers with him.

Half of the Blood Guard.

Three Chapter Masters and the three companies they lead.

The force is completely sufficient.

Dante led these people forward in the flesh and blood passage, and soon found a way to the outside world.

When they emerged from the giant insect's mouth, they found themselves in a cabin.

It's very open here.

The ground is covered with mucus and fleshy adhesion layers, and the pillars and some remains are stuck together by fleshy tentacles.

There are no bugs here yet, but there will soon be.

"They're coming!" A guard member discovered the approaching bugs through the Terminator A's scanning system.

At the same time, the pipe above everyone's heads made a muffled sound.

More neighing sounds came from outside the cabin door.

As you can imagine, there are countless bugs coming to the cabin from any road they can find.

The soldier holding a flamethrower walked to the exit of the pipe and sprayed flames toward the exit.

Twenty warriors armed with melta and assault guns set up a salvo formation in front of the gate, while others spread out to cover around the gate.

The figure of the insect appeared.

There weren't many knife bugs in the corridor leading to the door, but there were warrior bugs that couldn't be seen at a glance and had somehow evolved to have carapace attached to their entire bodies.

The assault cannon can penetrate the carapace but requires more ammunition, but the melta is enough to penetrate the carapace and the insect's body together.

Everyone was firing at the swarm of insects, quickly curbing their forward momentum.

Everything goes well on the gate side, and even smoother on the pipe side.

Those who can squeeze into the pipe are either weakened knife bugs or gene stealers. It only takes two people taking turns to use flamethrowers on the exit to intercept them.

But this smooth situation did not last long, the cabin suddenly shook, and a roar sounded at the end of the corridor.

A larger and stronger tyrant rushed out, it was the Lord of the Swarm.

The hot melt left large craters on the carapace, and the blood was evaporated before it had time to spurt out. However, this attack failed to kill the more powerful tyrant, but instead angered it.

The Tyrant rushed in front of the twenty volleys under fire and broke through their formation. He quickly swung out four bone knives and split the ten Space Marines into two on the spot.

When the bone knives were swung out again to slash at those who couldn't dodge, Dante stepped forward with his weapon and quickly blocked each bone knives, and chopped off one of the tyrant's arms. "Give it to me!" Dante shouted to the others who were about to intervene, asking them to focus on dealing with the rushing swarm.

Dante begins a duel with the tyrant.

In the eyes of those who caught a glimpse of the duel from the corner of their eyes, each of the Tyrant's swords was extremely fast and contained seemingly unstoppable power, but Dante was able to block every slash and leave a heavy wound on the Tyrant's body. .

Dante, who has been fighting for 500 years since becoming a Space Marine, is now a little old, but he can still fight.

The Tyrant's huge body was stabbed one after another, but it seemed to be able to quickly learn and draw on the combat experience of other similar types in the battle. It quickly learned Dante's fighting style and adopted the best response strategy, suppressing Dante in reverse.

The three arms holding three bone knives waved rapidly.

Dante had no chance to block and counterattack, so he could only keep blocking attacks.

As the Tyrant became more proficient in fighting Dante, he had to retreat slowly backwards.

The tyrant chased and attacked fiercely, and every attack was in the best condition, with the best power and skills. The damage to his body did not affect it much.

The Holy Blood Guards noticed Dante's situation, and they wanted to go over to assist, but they were quickly blocked by the swarm of insects, and even Dante's figure could not be seen.

The fight went on for 3 minutes.

Dante was at a disadvantage and kept blocking and retreating, waiting for an opportunity.

When there was a slight gap in the Tyrant's series of fierce attacks, Dante seized the opportunity to attack the neck of the huge war beast in front of him.

Just as the weapon was about to pierce the tyrant's neck, Dante saw the bone knife swung from diagonally below.

He noticed it and instinctively chose to give up the attack and retreat, but he changed his mind before he actually started to retreat.

There were two sounds of flesh being pierced by sharp weapons.

A bloody hole appears in the Tyrant's neck, and a bloody hole appears in Dante's abdomen.

Amidst the furious and sad shouts of the Holy Blood Guards, Dante was drowned in the out-of-control swarm of insects.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Dante opened his eyes.

There was darkness in front of my eyes.

But soon a light appeared at the edge of his vision, and Dante felt that he was being picked up by someone.

First, white wings appeared in Dante's sight, and then the wings folded around him.

Then there is a handsome face.

"Father..." A hoarse cry came from Dante's throat.

Sanguinius smiled and nodded.

Dante opened his mouth and began to tell Sanguinius what he had experienced, pouring out his difficulty and exhaustion of being overwhelmed by Baal's survival.

Dante said a lot.

Sanguinius listened quietly.

After pouring out all his difficulties, Dante asked the genetic father: "Please take me away... I want to go to you..."

"I know you are having a hard time," Sanguinius said softly, "but the battle is not over yet, and neither is your mission."

Dante wanted to say something, but felt like he was sinking in the Gene Father's arms.

Sanguinius' face grew further and further away from him.

Dante fell heavily and suddenly opened his eyes.

In the same dirty and smelly cabin, the Holy Blood Guards were killing the out-of-control bugs nearby to create an area as safe as possible.

Dante came back from the dead, the wound on his abdomen was gone, only the damage was left on his armor.
