Warhammer Inquisitor

Chapter 349 Expedition Road: Ambush in the Woodland

Alva Newls opened his eyes, his hazy eyes looked at the light above his head, the light seemed to be blocked by some vague sticky object, Alva leaned on the floating car behind him His eyes were empty and helpless, and he felt as if his limbs had lost control.

Alva looked around, he looked at an Eldar who was also sitting beside him, leaning on the carriage of the floating car, his movements were almost exactly the same as Alva's, he was also slumped on the ground weakly, the same double His legs stretched limply forward, but the only difference was that his head exploded.

This is not a metaphor, but an adjective. The head of the Eldar next to Alva exploded. Only half of his chin was left hanging above his neck on his shattered head. Glued to the floating car behind him, his brains and soft tissue fragments were all over the front wall.

Alva looked around at the surrounding glade, and plumes of smoke rose from the debris of the floating ship scattered around, the exploding single-person motorcycle and the various broken parts that flew out, and scattered around it. There are many corpses of Eldar.

Is no one alive?Alva leaned back on the carriage of the floating car in his mind. His mushy brain couldn't remember what happened. When he tried to think about it, all he had in his mind was a fragmented memory. , and vague impressions of gunshots, curses and screams.

These memories are meaningless. When Alva was in the middle of the Comoros, he could see similar scenes every day, so he didn't even know if the memory he saw happened here. In the end, Alva also gave up thinking.

He leaned his head against the floating carriage at once, raised his head and looked up at the sky above his head, the false sun in the netway hung high above his head, Alva stared at the sun with blurry and illusory eyes, His thinking gradually became dull and fuzzy, as if he had fallen into an indistinguishable dream.

So when that woman appeared in front of him, Alva didn't know if she really existed, but Alva just looked up at the woman in front of her. She was very beautiful. Her silver hair and purple eyes made her look like an Eldar. By the standards, they are breathtakingly beautiful.

She stood in front of Alva, holding Alva's raised head in both hands, Alva looked at her eyes, looking at this beautiful Eldar woman with a dull expression, "Are you a goddess?"

"Yes, I am indeed." The goddess said in a beautiful voice, like a reassuring sleep song, Varva looked up at her, her hazy eyes gradually became clear, he gradually Seeing the face of the goddess in front of her clearly, her face gradually emerged from a mosaic-like blur to a specific outline.

"Are you here to save me?" "Maybe." "Will you take me to heaven? As in the legend, to Isa's Garden of Eden, I hope you are the goddess of the Ark Eldar, not, our."

Alva coughed as he spoke, and the blood coughed out from his mouth and sprayed on the corners of his mouth. The woman smiled and gently wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with her fingers. She stroked Alva's cheeks. Suddenly, Alva's heart became calm and peaceful.

"I'm not the blood goddess of the Dark Eldar." As she said, her face gradually leaned up, and Alva looked at her with a smirk, as if waiting for a beautiful encounter. In the blurred vision, the goddess' face was getting closer and closer. It gradually became clearer.

"But at the same time I am not the god of the Ark Eldar, but the god of all Eldar, born from... the god of all of you." She said, holding Alva's head, her face finally clearly appeared in the In front of Alva, the latter looked at her with a smirk, but gradually Alva's smile changed from happiness to stiffness, from stiffness to shock, and finally to deep fear.

He watched the beautiful goddess in front of him gradually change shape. She was still beautiful, but she had become a beauty that would make any Eldar despair. The red lips under the purple eyes were smiling, and the slender, curly tongue was Spitting out from behind her lips, curved horns grew out of her forehead.

Alva looked at the wing on one side with eyes full of fear. It was a membrane wing that was slowly unfolding, and a crystal-like purple wing bone was attached to it, supporting the wing to slowly open.

Alva rolled his eyes, he looked in horror at the "goddess" in front of him, who held his face with a serpent-like smile on the corner of his mouth, "I will take you to "heaven", go, where you all belong place."

She laughed and stabbed her claws into Alva's temple all of a sudden, and Alva screamed as the claws pierced, his body shook violently, his hands and legs twitched wildly on the ground, the whole The body also swayed desperately in front of the goddess, only his head was held tightly by the goddess.

Arshan's eyes, ears, and mouth all spurted out a pale light. In the primitive fear that penetrated into the deepest part of the soul, Alva's scream became long and painful, and finally stopped after a struggle. , his mummified face collapsed to the ground after the claw was released.

The goddess stood in front of the dry and drained corpse, she held up what was in her hand, smiled and carefully admired the white smoke in her hands, in which Alva's screaming face existed, With the smoke flying around in his palm, he desperately wanted to escape, but he couldn't leave the palm no matter what.

She happily admired Alva's terribly frightened soul, who could feel himself falling into the endless nothingness, the piercing terror, and the scream of despair that followed, which Lilith enjoyed immensely.

"Lily, what kind of vulgar do you have? Torture the dying?" Vito asked while standing on the side with raised eyebrows, while Lilith smiled and held up the soul, she tilted her head and admired the screams. face with a happy smile.

"The more desperate and fearful the soul, the more delicious it is. Just like the dark spiritual race will extract the soul essence by torturing others, they can also be purified in this way."

Lilith said and smashed the soul violently, Alva's scream echoed in the real world for the last time, and then dissipated in the clenched palm, and everything was completely silent.

Vito raised his eyebrows slightly, he watched Lilith raise his head, took a deep breath as if enjoying it, and then let it out again with great joy, she lowered her head with one hand on her hips and looked at Vito who was on the side , "It's a pity that the remaining souls are not so delicious. They have died for too long, and their souls have become thin."

Vito looked around at the mess around him, leaning down to observe an Eldar corpse lying face down on the ground in front of him, "But you're still going to take their souls, right? Take them back to Slaanesh and devour them. "

"Fly legs are also meat. I don't eat them. I can also use them to water the flowers in the Demon Garden, so that they can grow more lush." ​​Lilith came over happily on her toes.

After she walked a few steps, her body also changed. After a purple halo flashed, Lilith turned into the image of the Lilith Inquisitor when she and Vito were on the adventure before, wearing a black corset and leather pants, Showing off her perfect figure, the cross-body belt hangs at one end of her graceful waist, while the other rests on her thighs, which are stretched so tightly by the tights.

Lilith bent down and approached Vito, watching the corpse lying on the ground with him. "Isn't he killed by the Spirit Race's own people?"

Lilith looked at the bullet holes in the corpse and asked, Vito nodded slightly, and he also observed that there were huge holes in the back of the Eldar race, the flesh and blood in it had been scorched, and the entire hole was filled with debris. Charred traces.

With his rich experience, Vito could immediately see that it was not the wound caused by the spear of the Spirit Race. If it was the wound caused by the spear, the whole wound would be in a state of decay, and the flesh would be slowly washed away in the strong acid. Devour, let the hit die painfully after a long torture, very much in line with the style of the Dark Eldar.

But this wound is not. Its penetrating wound is very crisp, and there is no extra pain to kill with a single shot. Vito gestured the size of the wound with his finger wearing the power armor, but only then did he find the finger of the power armor. It's too thick, and he can't be used for bullet hole width estimation at all.

Vito sighed, then turned his head to look at a small display window at the neck, accompanied by Vito's own fingers clicking in the power armor, and soon the chest of the golden armor he was wearing was facing the two sides. The side slides and contracts, and then quickly pushes out to the outside and pops open.

The chest part of the golden power armor opened an exit, and the armor on the torso also opened neatly outwards. The armor that opened and closed was like a neat double door, with a pair of symmetrical wings spread out on both sides. .

Vito pulled his legs out of the armor to be at the edge of the operating cabin. After he also pulled his arms out of the soft mouth in the huge shoulder armor, he jumped down. Vito landed in front of the huge power armor and stretched out. After squatting down, he squatted in front of the Eldar corpse and used his fingers to measure the radius of the wound.

Beside him, Lilith put her hands behind her back, stood on tiptoe, stuck her head out and looked inside the open power armor, "Wow, your power armor is quite convenient to wear."

"The craftsmen of the Golden Tower remodeled it, and it looks like it was changed according to the wearing mode of Thor's power armor. It should be the old bastard who made them change it. He knows that compared to the troublesome wearing method of Space Marines, I I still prefer the self-opening wear mode of Thor Power Armor."

"Indeed, this is indeed much more convenient." Lilith stuck her head out from the edge of the armor, and looked at the space in the operation cabin.

Rather than saying that this is a power armor, it is better to say that this whole has been changed into some kind of individual mecha, a small power armor with a smaller size but a higher concentration of technology, which is no longer like a space warrior. , it also needs to wear its own body to bear its weight and movement, but is completely driven by the support structure of the armor itself, and the movement energy motor cooperates with the exoskeleton transmission device to move forward.

Lilith put her hands behind her back and looked around at the dim interior space structure, "Well, let's see, soft pads, body adaptive sponges, and buffer layers, and even a constant temperature air conditioner? It seems that there is a lot more inside. Comfortable design, it looks like your old brother is quite thoughtful for you."

"Perhaps, at least for [-] years, he has finally understood the practicality of weapons, not only in terms of power, but also whether the user can use them comfortably and comfortably." Gently turned it over and looked at the face that hit the ground with a blue nose and a swollen face.

But the ruined appearance is not important to this Spirit Race anymore. He has completely hung up on the front of the godless pale eyes, and there is a high probability that he will not suddenly jump up and surprise Vito.

"Then can anyone run around in your power armor? I just wanted to go in and try it out. I've always wondered what the Emperor's armor looks like."

Lilith said that she had already started to climb in, but just as she stepped on the edge of the cockpit, Vito grabbed her ankle with a backhand, and pulled him down, "Don't, you wear it for a while and it's full of charms. The smell of magic is gone, and I don't know how to explain it to Guilliman when I go back to Terra."

"You guys are so boring, but okay." Lilith said and jumped down. She moved her arms and looked around at the corpses of the Dark Eldar, while Vito, who was squatting in front of him, came from the Dark Eldar's corpse. A badge was drawn from his arms, which was a unique badge imprint.

Vito looked at the medal in his hand. It seemed to be specially made. He raised his head and glanced at the Eldar corpse sitting on the paralyzed floating car. He was shot several times in the chest by some kind of firearm. The hole, and several bullet holes were also punched in the floating car behind him.

Vito noticed that the Eldar's jacket also wore an identical medal, and he held up the medal consisting of three machetes, which Vito compared with the logo on the floating car, its logo almost exactly the same.

"These Eldar are people from looting gangs. It seems that they were ambushed when they came to this planet to rest after looting somewhere." Vito said and put down the medal in his hand, he put it down At the same time as the medal, he noticed Magnus on the other side of the floating car.

He was investigating alone on the edge of the ambush scene, looking withdrawn and silent. Vito watched as he walked to the side of a sunk Eldar raider ship with countless bullet holes punched in its hull. A corpse fell in various ways inside and outside the hull.

Vito squatted on the ground, with one hand on his knee, he looked at Magnus who was walking by the side of the boat, while Lilith, who was beside him, folded his arms and turned his head slightly to look at Vito, "How on earth are you getting along? Come here from the hell? Loyalists and traitors act together, you are not afraid of being regarded as a heretic."

"I'm the boss of the Inquisition, who said I'm a heretic?" Vito stood up with a smile, Lilith stood beside him with his arms in his arms, looked at him with a playful face, and then glanced at Mag in the distance Nus.

"Why don't you kill him? I can help you, let's kill him together, and then I'm taking you to Slaanesh, so you don't have to worry about how much trouble Magnus will cause if he is controlled later. ." Lilith said, shaking her hand out of thin air, and suddenly a silver magic blade appeared in her palm.

But Vito pressed Lilith's hand after she had just held the curved blade. He looked at Magnus and shook his head gently, "No, no need, he will be resurrected in the warp anyway, You killed him in the net, but you can't really kill the demon primarch."

"At least he can be severely crippled with his current half-soul. Even if Tzeentch resurrects him later, his vitality will be severely damaged, and his brain may not be too normal, just like Angron." Lilith said with The back of the magic blade tapped his head lightly, while Vito smiled and shook his head slightly.

"No, on the contrary, I need a normal Magnus who can think like he is now, so it's okay to be a little troublesome." In the direction of the floating vehicle, the huge armored vehicle fell to the ground, and the whole collapsed there.

Lilith carried the magic blade and looked at Vito's back. She put her weight on the other leg and leaned behind Vito, "You want to bring him back to the side of the empire? Persuade him to be good? It's impossible, I won't say whether you can convince him, even if you do? Half of his soul is still with Tzeentch, and he can control Magnus' will at any time."

"And the soul of his other half, the ghost knows where Tzeentch is locked in the depths of the ever-changing labyrinth. No one can enter from there and then come out with something."

"Then why don't you try it out and see how much of the remaining half of Magnus's soul is left? Maybe I can use that to make some articles." Vito said and walked to the floating car, he stood on the head In front of the blown up Spirit Race corpse, he looked up at the huge explosion gap on the side of the floating car body.

The edge of the entire explosion gap melted, and the molten iron was left on the armor fragments, and then solidified and fixed in mid-air, turning into unique protruding water marks. Vito looked at the gap, and always felt a kind of familiarity. The feeling that he should be able to recognize at a glance, but there is another feeling that warns himself that it is impossible.

Lilith stood behind Vito, she tilted her head slightly to look at Vito in front of her, "Really? Are you serious?" "Maybe, maybe not, but at least I can find you something to do, right? So you can You can save my power armor's attention."

Lilith glanced at the power armor that was half squatting on the ground beside her, she turned her head and smiled, then moved her fingers and walked in Magnus's direction, Vito looked at Lilith who was walking away from the corner of his eye, " Don't irritate him with bullshit."

"I'll try my best." Lilith said as she waved her fingers and walked in the direction of Magnus. Vito smiled, turned his head and continued to look at the gap in front of him. He held his chin and looked at the front of him thoughtfully. Notched part.

This gap looks very familiar, and Vito always feels that he should know it for sure. In fact, he has already had a guess in his heart, but Vito simply does not want to believe it.

"Hot melt cannon? In the net? How is that possible." Vito said contemptuously and hung his head to the side, waved his hand and said easily, and then he was slapped in the face.

Lilith, who was walking behind Vito, was walking with the magic blade on her back, but suddenly Lilith noticed something. She stopped abruptly and immediately turned her head to look at the woodland beside her. A blazing fire whistled. Liu shot out of the woods and shot straight at Lilith.

Lilith immediately raised her hand to summon a shield, and the flickering psychic shield suddenly rose from Lilith's front. The son hit the shield, and then quickly exploded and swept the entire shield.

The high-temperature hot lava that sprayed out blocked Lilith's vision. She looked at the fire shield in front of her, but just as she was about to do something, a dense barrage was shot from the other side, whistling. Light bullets rained down on Lilith. If she hadn't raised the second shield in time, she would have been beaten into a hornet's nest.

Vito turned his head sharply to look in the direction of Lilith. His eyes widened in surprise. Lilith, who was behind the shield, supported the psionic shield to block all the roaring artillery fire, dense light bullets and hot melt. The explosion continued to flicker around Lilith, and the artillery fire from the forest efficiently formed a fire net, since it successfully suppressed Lilith temporarily.

Whenever Lilith was about to withdraw to launch a counterattack, another attack would come from the other direction, and the continuous barrage completely bound Lilith in the storm of artillery fire.

Lilith raised her hands in front of her. She looked up at the continuous rumble, and the shield surface was flying with countless flames and flashes. She squinted slightly and saw the shooters on the other end of the shield. They were blurred in the flames. The figure appeared on the edge of the woodland and walked out of it with a gun in hand.

Vito also saw the attackers. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the soldiers walking out of the woods. They held guns and fired continuously and violently, while advancing with great coordination. Everyone paced. Consistently, the weapon in its hand also fires with amazing synergy.

Their firepower has formed a dense fire net one after another. Whether someone in the army has run out of ammunition and needs to be replaced, or a weapon failure needs to be adjusted, as long as a shooter's position is vacant, he will immediately back up. Step out of the line, and immediately a new soldier will take his place and continue to fire.

A group of soldiers walking out from the edge of the woodland formed a slender blue line. They lined up to fire in unison. Lilith, who was hit by the fierce fire, could not leave the position to fight back, which obviously made Lilith very uncomfortable. Unhappy, she bared her teeth like an enraged cat.

Vito looked at the blue thin line. The reason why it was called the blue line was because the soldiers' power armors were all blue, wearing light armor and heavy armor with hot melt cannons. The soldiers moved forward in a slender line, and Vito watched them closely.

Those power armors look a lot like stormtroopers, but they are more advanced and ancient than stormtroopers. The blue armor looks hard but light, and it doesn't mean to be hindered by it, even if it wears full body armor, But still walking like flying, smooth and natural movements.

Although the armor has some paint peeling due to the traces of the years, and there are some gray-white spots on the surface of the blue armor, it can still be seen that the advanced nature of its manufacturing process is almost the same as the texture of the space warrior armor. Exactly the same.

And this is not just an adjective. The biggest point of these mysterious soldiers and stormtroopers is that each of them wears a personal tactical display helmet. It will only be used by Space Marines, because it is expensive, and the technology to manufacture it is already owned by only a few factories in the Empire.

They are either the arsenal of the Space Marine homeworld, or the few foundry worlds that are oriented to provide armament to ship-based chapters, but these soldiers are almost one person, and two black folding hoses are attached to their helmets. , seems to be suitable for filtering harmful gases, and circulating devices for life-sustaining equipment.

Vito looked at them carefully, and their armor had a huge shoulder plate at the shoulders, which made them look like small Space Marines from every angle, etc. mortal-sized. Space Marines Power armor?

Vito suddenly thought of something. When he raised his head to look at the soldiers again, the model of the power armor flashed in his mind, the Void-level single-soldier power armor, which was only assigned to the most elite mortals in the past. Auxiliary Army.

"Magnus! Stop me and deal with it!" Vito immediately turned his head and shouted in the direction of Magnus, who was rushing from a distance. in the direction of Vito.

Vito swung his arms and rushed towards the direction of the power armor at a very fast speed. He jumped up and stepped on the edge of the cockpit, and then suddenly fell into the cockpit of the torso. Vito Immediately, his hands drilled into the shoulder armor of the power armor on both sides, and then the palms that penetrated into the arm part of the power armor suddenly lifted forward and pushed, and the start lever quickly and coherently applied to the whole body.

The open part of the power armor quickly slid inward and closed, and the wearing lock was completed in a very short time. Vito immediately stood up wearing the heavy power armor and rushed towards Lilith.

The heavy power armored boots stepped on the ground, and Vito smashed the broken floating car in front of him. He looked at the angry purple light in his eyes, and the succubus wings behind him were torn from the back of the changed Eldar dress. Lilith shouted, "Lily! Don't fight back, I'll deal with it!"

Lilith looked at Vito, who was rushing from one side, in astonishment. He rushed straight to Lilith, "Vito! What's wrong with you?!"

"Trust me." Vito said, striding towards the direction of the barrage of artillery fire that continuously bombarded Lilith's shield. Vito stood up in the middle of the narrow fire net woven by countless artillery fire, almost all on both sides of him. It was the barrage that was shot past him, the firepower hit Vito, and the power armor jingled under the bombardment of the artillery fire.

His hair was fluttering in the heat wave, Vito turned his back to the back of the continuous explosion of flames, he stood in the flames like a shadow on the sun, and he was one of the blue-armored soldiers who were firing violently in front of him. A guy who looked like an officer saw Vito.

He obviously couldn't see Vito's face clearly. He was carrying the firelight on his back. His entire face and front body were in the darkness of the backlight. The officer raised his arm and waved at the soldiers on both sides, and they all turned their guns. Aim at Vito and prepare to fire.

But at the moment when the officer's finger pulled the trigger, Vito raised his hands suddenly and suddenly, accompanied by Vito's raised hand, an invisible force rushed towards the officers and soldiers in front. The gun was all freed from the hand by the upward force.

The officer looked at the gun flying above his head, and without any hesitation, he pulled out the pistol on his waist with his backhand. The pistol branded with a golden eagle pointed at Vito, who was standing in front of the shield, with his back facing the fire and his front being dark. .

Suddenly, the officer saw a pair of golden eyes that lit up in the darkness, and golden lightning flashed outward from those eyes. Almost at the same time, Vito slammed his arms, and all the flames on the shield behind him were invisible. The power was attracted, and the flames and flashes of the hot melt and blaster were all drawn away from Lilith.

Behind the shield, Lilith looked up at the group of fire that was turning like a firestorm above her head. Vito waved his arms to make the fire turn above his head. The officer raised his pistol and looked up at the firestorm, the tactical helmet. The eyes under the long curved glass widened in disbelief.

Vito suddenly spread his hands around, and the fire above his head immediately spread to the surroundings. The flame formed a huge imperial eagle symbol behind Vito, and the flame was burning with raging fire. The eagle rose from the sky, and the light of fire instantly lit up Vito's face.

His face appeared in front of the officer, the man put down the pistol in his hand and immediately clasped the corner of the helmet with one hand, took it off his head at once, and the black hoses connected to both sides of the helmet hit the shoulders on both sides On the armor, he turned the helmet over the top of his head, revealing his gray hair and a slightly old face.

But even though he is old, Vito still recognizes the face, and the other party obviously recognizes the person in front of Vito with an incredible expression, "Marshal?!"

"Hello, Peter, how long have we not seen each other? Ten thousand years?" The flaming eagle above Vito's head gradually dissipated, and Lilith walked up under the dissipating fire. She stood up to Vito with her sword in hand. He looked at the officer on the other side.

"Who is this guy? Can I cut him?" Lilith asked bluntly, she was obviously quite upset because she was being attacked, but Vito laughed.

"No, sorry dear, I have to spoil you, you can't kill them because they are all my old men, real old men."

"You may have forgotten them, so let me introduce to you, this is Colonel Peter, the commander of the Solar Auxiliary on the Emperor's Dream, and the soldiers behind him, the Solar Auxiliary on my flagship and the Crew, my old friends."

A sincere smile appeared on Vito's face, the joy of reuniting with his friends ten thousand years later.
