Plunder the Heavens from Warhammer

Chapter 36 A truth more cruel than a lie
Three days!

Three whole days!

Alvin didn't even know how he managed to survive!

Seventy-two hours, four thousand three hundred and twenty minutes, two hundred and fifty-nine thousand two hundred seconds, he almost counted them all to get through it.

Tucker's training is so crazy that he is not given any time to rest at all.

In the morning, we learned how to lurk, disguise, and conceal one's own breath; in the afternoon, we learned close combat, bare-handed fighting, resisting blows, and escaping.

If it weren't for the amazing improvement in his physical fitness and recovery speed after being injected with "Compound No. 5", Alvin would have been crippled by Tucker's high-intensity training!

Finally, after Alvin had endured three difficult days, he received a comment from Tucker full of disgust.

"Very good, congratulations, kid." He flicked the ash from his cigarette and sneered, "Now you are almost as good as a six-year-old child in Catachan."

Alvin didn't care about this evaluation, and was even a little secretly happy.

Being able to fight almost as well as a six-year-old kid in Catachan is already a pretty high evaluation. You know, in Catachan, if a six-year-old kid can't beat a cultist to death with dry bread, then it means he can't live to adulthood. Isn't this a high evaluation?

"Mr. Tucker, thank you very much for your three days of training."

Alvin knew that Tucker didn't need to train him, and the reason he did so was not entirely because of Aruman.

So no matter what, these three days were a favor to him that he needed to remember in his heart.

"No need to thank me, as long as you come back alive."

Tucker lazily sat on the sofa, lighting a cheap cigarette: "What I taught you should be enough, but it's a pity that the time is too short. You are a talented kid. If you can give me another half a year, I will definitely be able to train you into a qualified Catachan jungle warrior!"

You know what, I'm really looking forward to it. Alvin imagined himself becoming a Catachan jungle warrior.

At that time, psychic power will be the trump card in the bottom of the box, and it will explode at the critical moment, which will definitely be unexpected!
But no matter how much he thought, he had to be realistic. Alvin smiled bitterly and shook his head. He handed over the Catachan combat knife that had accompanied him for three days reluctantly: "Mr. Tucker, I'll return this combat knife to you."

The most important thing for every Catachan warrior is the 'combat knife', and throughout the entire empire, Catachan combat knives are the best of the best!
Many commissars, Astra Militarum, and nobles consider it a symbol of honor to have a Catachan combat knife in their collection.

Unexpectedly, Tucker just glanced at the combat knife handed over, but did not reach out to take it. He still sat there without moving: "I'll lend you this knife temporarily. When you come back, return it to me."

Alvin hesitated for a few seconds, and finally solemnly inserted the combat knife into the scabbard, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Tucker, I will never forget this kindness."

"Go away, and come find me here in a month."

Tucker still looked disdainful and waved his hand impatiently.

Alvin stopped talking, packed up his equipment, and returned along the same path he came.

After leaving the sewer, Alvin was not in a hurry to cross through, as he still had one thing to do.

Three days of Catachan training benefited Alvin a lot. His camouflage skills improved by leaps and bounds. He easily passed the Hammer Gang's interrogation and returned to the South District.

Over the past half month, the South District has undergone tremendous changes.

First of all, the Skeleton Gang, which originally ruled the South District, was directly wiped out and annexed by the Hammer Gang. There were fewer scavengers on the streets, and they were replaced by gang members.

These gang members all wore hammer badges. Not only did they not show any of their previous bullying and arrogance, they were even actively maintaining order.

It's really weird, the gang is not a gang anymore, it has become poverty alleviation!

Looking at the 'thriving' scene, Alvin lowered his eyes, feeling indescribable complexity in his heart.

Because he knew very well that the Hammer Gang did this not because they had a change of heart.

Instead, they need to recruit more people, wait for the right opportunity, and rush into the middle nest or even the upper nest together to spread the chaos to the entire nest!

Alvin knew it, but he was powerless to stop it.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a familiar figure standing in front of the Hammer Gang's stall where they distributed free food every day, enthusiastically distributing energy bars to the scavengers who came.

That's Emmerich?!
Although it was only a quick glimpse, Alvin was very sure that he was not mistaken!
Emmerich actually joined the Hammer Gang!

He came to the southern area of ​​Xiachao on purpose this time, on the one hand to avoid the technical priests, and on the other hand to find the Emmerich brothers and sisters, introduce them to Tucker, and stay away from this place of trouble.

But who could have thought that in just ten days, Emmerich would join the Hammer Gang?

Isn't this just jumping into a fire pit? Alvin claimed that he was not a good person, but the miserable experience of the brother and sister inevitably made him feel a little sympathy.

At least, he can help the brother and sister to the best of his ability.

The line of scavengers waiting to receive food was very long, and in order not to attract attention, Alvin had to line up at the end.

After waiting for two hours, it was finally his turn.

Emmerich handed over two energy bars skillfully and said, "As long as you join the Hammer Gang, you can get a bowl of nutritious porridge every day~"

But just as he finished speaking, the boy heard the other party lower his voice and say, "Emeric, do you remember me?"

These words made Emmerich pause and look up in disbelief as if he had been electrocuted.

When he saw Alvin's dirty and unkempt appearance, as if he had become a different person, he quickly reacted and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

But he was cautious and did not call out the name right away. Instead, he handed the work over to other members and signaled Alvin with his eyes to follow.

The two came to the backyard of a bar. After confirming that no one had followed them, Emmerich excitedly whispered, "It's really you, Mr. Alvin. I didn't expect to see you again!"

"I have come specially to see you, Emmerich."

Alvin got straight to the point and said, "I'll give you a name and address. You take your sister to find him and tell him that I sent you here. He will take you away from the Lower Nest."

Faced with the sudden surprise, Emmerich opened his mouth wide and was stunned for a full half minute before he stuttered, "Mr. Alvin, you..."

"Don't ask so many questions. Just go, the sooner the better."

Alvin interrupted the boy, his voice unconsciously carrying a hint of severity: "Emeric, the Hammer Gang is dangerous!"

However, under Alvin's advice, Emmerich remained silent for a long time.

"you do not believe me?"

Alvin raised his eyebrows and his eyes gradually became cold.

"No, Mr. Alvin, I believe you will never harm us."

Emmerich lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong, bit his lip, and said firmly: "But, I can't leave. Please forgive me for failing to live up to your kindness, Mr. Alvin."

"Give me a reason."

Alvin looked at Emmerich in front of him with indifferent eyes, as if he was looking at a stranger.

"Mr. Alvin, not long after you left, Buck was going to sell my sister." Emmerich's face was full of bitterness, his fists clenched, and his whole body was shaking: "I, I couldn't beat Buck at all. It was Mr. Korch from the Hammer Gang who saved us!"

"Mr. Korch was very kind to us. He let me join the Hammer Gang and gave me weapons so that I could take revenge."

"I, I can't betray Mr. Korch."

Emmerich didn't dare to look Alvin in the eye and said, "And the Hammer Gang is not as scary as you think. Mr. Korch said that everyone came together to survive. The Hammer Gang will make the Lower Nest a better place, so please forgive me, Mr. Alvin."

Alvin looked at Emmerich, sighed deeply, turned around and left without saying another word.

He had no way to change the boy's mind, let alone tell Emmerich that the gang you mentioned who was trying to keep everyone alive was actually a cult that worshipped Khorne!

This path was chosen by Emmerich himself, and he has already given it a chance.

The truth is crueler than a lie.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Alvin!"

From behind, Emmerich's apologetic voice was heard.

But Alvin did not look back. His only act of kindness could not change the fate of the brother and sister.

Damn Tzeentch!
He vented helplessly in his heart.

After a moment, Alvin was deep in an empty alley, looking down at the watch on his wrist: "Navigator System, heading to the new world."

The black hole swallowed him directly and disappeared quietly!
