This Terra is a little weird.

Especially the kind of mental attack. Just listening to the soldiers' reports, you can tell that the problem is quite serious.

But what can he do? There are very few warlocks who can resist mental attacks. It is impossible for Dadi to invent an anti-mental interference device or something. I have never heard of anyone researching this. However, there are a lot of perverted scientists who want to destroy people's minds.

But the reality was that the Patriot did not have much time to think about it, so he had to once again urge the rear to send troops over, and then let the land ships hurry over.

He needed enough soldiers to test Hai Si's intentions, whether it was Iberia or somewhere else. Without enough troops, it would be difficult for them to defend Iberia.

He could only pick up the phone and call Heragh, and only started complaining after reporting the battle situation.

A patriot cannot imagine that one day he will complain to his superiors that he does not have enough soldiers, his weapons are not enough, and so on. This did not happen when he was a captain. Now he is the commander-in-chief of the front line. He is responsible for four or five corps, a total of 800,000 people. This is not something that can be accomplished by just brute force.

Hellagur naturally understood the difficulties faced by the Patriots, but he was also helpless. The Patriots had no soldiers, and he had even less. The distribution ratio was not right. The power of the Astra Militarum was now dispersed and it was no longer the monolithic entity it was before. People from various countries and races were mixed here.

Culture and other things are easy to deal with, but I am afraid that people with ulterior motives will come in.

Hellagur thought that perhaps only the return of the founder of the Astra Militarum could change this chaotic situation.

But what could he ask of others? What could the Earth Council ask of him? He was no longer a soldier. Now he was supplying military supplies to the Star Army and special medicines to the Earth every day. Using his blood was already too much.

I heard that he only got a marriage certificate but never had the wedding. All the company's profits were poured into the factory due to the war.

Drag them into another war? Herag didn't want to be the 'asshole'.

But Helag understood that if the situation continued to deteriorate, someone would definitely come forward to play the bad guy.

"Bozhuocasti, I don't have that many soldiers to transfer to you, and now there is news that Target No. 1 has returned to everyone's sight."

"You mean Skadi?"

"Yes, she appeared with those deep-sea hunters and went to Rhodes Island. Cadia... has already led people to confront them. It's hard to say what the outcome will be."

"Didn't we take action?"

"No, or rather, we shouldn't act. Just leave this matter to Cardia and those Terra guards."

"........Do you really believe those mutants?"

"Luo Chen believes in them, doesn't he? And those Terra guards are also loyal to him. Although I have never met Luo Chen, I can tell from your words that as a soldier and a general, his prestige is extremely high. Do you believe him?"

"We spent a long time in the battle to overthrow the Ursus Empire. Do you ask me if I trust him? Of course I do. As a comrade, he is impeccable."

"Well, we can only observe the development of the situation quietly. Bozhuocasti, I will try to transfer more soldiers to you."

"understood."

At the Lungmen border, Rhodes Island encountered its biggest crisis in history. The entire Terra Guard Regiment surrounded Rhodes Island, and more than a thousand Space Marines and all employees of Cadia confronted Rhodes Island.

The doctor clenched her fists tightly, her palms sweating. She couldn't believe that her friend and ally of many years was now fully armed and pressing them hard.

Kal'tsit put her hands on Amiya and the Doctor's shoulders to comfort them, but she herself felt scared, which was even more frightening than the life and death situation at the Tower of Babel.

What Rhodes Island has to face is not the Sarkaz Legion, but an entire regiment of Space Marines, a large number of Dreadnoughts, Predator tanks, and even an absurdly large Land Raider.

Not to mention that Kadia brought more than 3,000 people, as well as mechas and armored troops. The barrel of the earth-shaking cannon has been raised.

From the moment the doctor declined Cardia's request to examine Skadi and the Deep Sea Hunter, Luo Chen had torn his face. It was not that he wanted to, but the many strange phenomena in Hai Si all started half a year after Skadi left. Although Luo Chen had many reasons not to doubt Skadi, he was helpless now.

If Rhodes Island could cooperate obediently today, then no one would be blamed for the attack by Haisi, but if Rhodes Island resisted, it would be considered by outsiders as confirming that it was shielding Skadi.

Luo Chen picked up the communicator and said, "Doctor, ten minutes have passed. We don't have that much time to wait for your decision."

"Luo Chen, we agreed on this."

"Yes, I still remember that oath, but you have to understand that I have to do this now. I can promise you that I won't do anything to her. You just need to come to Cardia when the time comes."

"You and I both know that Haisi's matter is not..."

"No! I don't know, and you can't guess it. We don't know whether Skadi is still Skadi."

"Then you can find out if you take her away?"

"Doctor, the whole world is watching what happened today. I hope Rhodes Island will not resist. Doctor, think carefully. Your choice now concerns the lives of everyone in Rhodes Island!"

This sound was heard clearly by everyone.

Huang threw the bottle of wine in his hand and said, "*Yan country swear words* Luo Chen! You big tail wolf! The doctor likes you so much! He trusts you so much! And you do this?!"

The operators of Rhodes Island expressed their opinions one after another.

“Get lost!!”

"We in Rhode Island can do everything!"

"There's no need for you to meddle in the affairs of our Rhodes Island operators!"

"..."

Luo Chen was neither impatient nor anxious: "Doctor, Kal'tsit, Amiya, think about it, even if you give up your position for us to search, let us bear the blame? Do you really have to do this?"

The doctor was silent for a moment: "Rhodes Island is not a place you can enter just because you want to, and Rhodes Island will not abandon any of its operators. We cannot agree to your suggestion."

"......"

Huang and other aggressive operators kept swearing. The calm operators knew their fate the moment they heard the doctor's answer. But as operators of Rhodes Island, what would it matter if they died for this place they could call home? !

Luo Chen looked in the distance at the Star Army observers, as well as the direction of the observers from Yan Country and other countries. They were all observing how things were developing.

Luo Chen is now regretting why he reported the possibility of Skadi becoming Hai Si to the Star Army. If he had not reported it, would today's events have ended with everyone sitting together, discussing the matter, and then making a decision based on the situation?

But there is no regret medicine in the world, the matter is a foregone conclusion.

"Prepare!"

When Doji Zhaxi heard the order, the fearless and huge voice of the despiser came out: "Ready!!!"

Krieg's employees loaded ammunition into the earthshaker. The moment the bolt closed, Huang felt a chill in her heart. She protected several frightened medical operators behind her.

Luo Chen spoke into the intercom, his breath trembling: "Doctor, please, please, bring Skadi and the Deep Sea Hunter out, Rhodes Island can't hold on."

"......"

The doctor looked at the operators, her hands shaking.

The sound of pushing backpacks was heard, and the Raven Guards had already jumped onto the platform, aiming their bolt guns at the surrounding operators.

This was Luo Chen's last signal to the Doctor. If a fight really broke out, with the Lemanus, Poisonblade super-heavy tanks, Land Raiders and Earthshakers firing together, there wouldn't be many people left on Rhodes Island. Sending the Space Marines was to avoid the firing, and it was also a final ultimatum to the Doctor.

"Doctor...hand over Skadi."

"I'm here!"

The doctor turned around suddenly and saw Skadi standing at the hatch, followed by a group of deep-sea hunters and a ghost shark that had changed its appearance.

"Skadi..."

"Doctor, thank you for your help, but you can't let Rhodes Island and its allies become enemies because of us. You and Luo Chen don't need to do this."

"

This is not…”

Skadi came to the landing pad and met with the captain of the Raven Guard: "Sorry, we were just packing up. Please take us to Cadia."

The Space Marine saw the monster entangled with Skadi. He wanted to shoot. The target had obviously changed, but Luo Chen's death order was to bring her and those deep-sea hunters back safely.

Restraining their disgust for the aliens and their desire to kill, the Raven Guards took Skadi and the deep-sea hunters away without saying a word.

Cardia retreated, and the Rhodes Island operators breathed a sigh of relief, but the doctor held on to the railing tightly, and did not let go even after Amiya reminded her.

Chapter 209 Is She Really a Haisi?

Luo Chen yawned and came out of the detention room. Looking at Skadi sitting on the glass chair and the worm-like alien, he wanted to shoot a explosive grenade at them. Fortunately, the few Space Marines standing in the detention room had enough self-control and did not raise their guns to fire at Skadi.

"Saint." Reverend Dellal saluted. "It's been a day, and she still hasn't said anything."

Luo Chen put his hands on the table, looked at Skadi, and thought about countermeasures.

Dral said: "Perhaps we should stop the meaningless interrogation. It is obvious that she is accompanied by aliens. Shooting her to death is a once-and-for-all choice. There is no need to hesitate."

Luo Chen slowly straightened up, thought for a moment, suddenly pulled out a laser pistol and pushed the door open. Dral followed him in. Skadi looked at Luo Chen's arrival and smiled.

A laser pistol was pointed at Skadi's head, and the Haisi beside her roared at Luo Chen. The surrounding Space Marines instantly pointed their bolters at them. If the Haisi dared to move, he would be turned into a pool of blood by the bolter.

"Luo Chen, I haven't seen you for half a year."

"Don't talk nonsense to me, tell me, who are you now?"

"I am who I am, Skadi."

"What is this alien?"

"He is my blood relative. He has separated from the herd just like me."

Angry voices were heard on the Space Marines' communication channel.

"She lied!" (High Gothic)

"It's clear she has given up being human. We can't trust this witch!" (High Gothic)

"We kill her now, and those xenos won't attack the line again!" (High Gothic)

Pastor Draer saw that the situation was getting worse. There were five Space Marines in the cell at the moment, three of them were from the Imperial Fists, and the other two were Space Marines from the Dark Angels and Space Wolves.

They had already quietly loaded their bolt guns.

Dral felt a little regretful for transferring other former legion soldiers over. Of course they were loyal, but they would not always obey orders like the Imperial Fists. When faced with threats, their attitude was obvious: kill first and report later.

Pastor Dral looked at Luo Chen, at Skadi, and then at the two former Dark Angels and Space Wolves warriors.

Dral slammed his staff on the ground: "Enough! The life and death of this witch is entirely up to the Saints! You should obey orders! Instead of trying to overstep your authority here!" (High Gothic)

The two Space Marines stopped raising their guns, turned on the safety and stood back. Seeing their actions, Luo Chen realized what Dral meant by his sudden words.

Only creatures of the same level can see the movements of the Space Marines clearly. Mortals like Luo Chen, whose bodies have evolved but not fully evolved, cannot see their movements at all.

Luo Chen was very glad that the Space Marines were willing to listen to the orders of a mortal like him and praise the Emperor.

Facing the danger just now, Skadi also had a premonition, but she still kept smiling: "Luo Chen, I have caused you a lot of trouble."

Luo Chen put down the laser pistol: "No, Skadi, I have complicated the problem. At the beginning... Never mind, I think no matter how I ask you now, your answer will be the same, as for the alien on your body."

"My blood."

"...I hope it can disappear, disappear from everyone's sight. You carry it with you. Apart from us and Rhodes Island, not many people outside will understand you. They will think you are a monster."

"That's why I returned to Rhodes Island. It's because of what you told me that I didn't return to the group. Luo Chen, are you willing to believe me?"

Luo Chen was silent for a long time. He turned around and said, "My Lords, please return to the monastery first. Leave the rest to me."

"saint?"

"Do not worry."

"...We followed orders."

The Space Marines went out, but there was an argument among them about the matter.

A Space Marine from a later chapter said: "Saints should not be soft-hearted. Facing aliens, nothing is more reliable than explosive arrows. We should shoot the bullets at the witch's head and kill those accomplices. They are obviously destroying the purity of mankind."

"Watch what you say! Brother, you are questioning the decision of the Saints." De Lisle shouted.

"I want to protect the Saints, carry out the Emperor's orders, and protect this world!"

"No! This is not the Empire! We are in a foreign country! We have a new name: Terra Guard, everyone is one. You are no longer an Astartes, and neither am I. You and I are both Space Marines, soldiers. Our basic principle is to obey orders, and this is unquestionable!"

"But, that witch! She is obviously not human anymore. Why should we protect the aliens?! We should tear them into pieces! Haven't the suffering caused by the aliens to mankind been enough, brother? They burned our world, slaughtered our compatriots, and plundered our resources and territories. You are a priest, brother Dral, as loyal as you are, why are you now..."

"I remain loyal, Derex. You should be clear about your identity. You are the Emperor's blade, the defender of mankind, a Space Marine, and a soldier! Don't have any other thoughts, Derex. I have seen many people become heretics because of their wild thoughts. I hope you won't let me point my sword at you, brother!"

Drix took two steps back, and several legionnaires surrounded him and put their hands on him. These Space Marine ancestors faced Drael.

"Pastor, you are from the same era and fought in the same period. Don't be so harsh. Until now, we still haven't figured out you, the younger generations."

"Ancestors, our times... were very dark, but our current situation is a million times better. Even so, loyalty is still our duty. I cannot allow any of our battle brothers to have any crazy thoughts. We have suffered enough from heretics and traitors."

Derex thought for a long time. Perhaps what Dral said was right. Just like they would not always deploy according to past experience in every battle, maybe he should not look at the world with an old-fashioned perspective now.

"Perhaps you are right, brother. Please forgive me for my transgression. You know, the alien..."

Dral replied: "I understand, brother, there is nothing to forgive. As for the witch, if she really has a problem, none of us will sit idly by. We believe in the saints and the Emperor's spokesperson in this world. This is our duty."

"For the Emperor!"
