Chapter 53: Reunion and the Dawn of Victory

I barely stood up on my hands on the ground, and in the process, the golden figure in front of me who had blocked a sword for me kept his back to me, too lazy to look back, but said to the man in the black trench coat in the distance, "Lord Adilius, is this the warrior you have high hopes for?" He can't even show his true face, how can he be considered a truly trustworthy soldier? ”

Oh, is that Eddie on the other side? So the one who appeared with him must be the Grand Nun of the Silver Sacred Scripture Monastery? No wonder the voice is familiar, it turned out to be heard in the communicator.

This is an extremely tall and burly woman, who is more than 1.9 meters tall by sight. I couldn't see the face, I was over forty years old by the sound, and considering that the nun was often an orphan raised as a child, she had served the empire much longer than I did. Standing behind her, I felt the space around me become more stable, the subspace more difficult to touch, and the recovery of psionic energy slowed down considerably, which I think is the ability of the faithful to fight witchcraft with faith. Although it is not as big as Cheng DΓΉ, who is completely enclosed in the subspace of an untouchable, coupled with her well-made force feedback power armor, that large, master-level two-handed power sword with extraordinary appearance, and her combat skills as a high-ranking leader of the Battle Nun, I have to admit that if there is a conflict at this moment, it will be difficult for me to be her opponent. Unless I have enough distance and I have plenty of ammunition to keep in stock, I can fight hard.

So, even if I was sneered at by her, I had to remain silent and make a respectful gesture that a Wehrmacht soldier should have in front of a nun.

And Eddie, he was able to take a nun with anti-spiritual ability to teleport, and the teleportation landed in two separate places, and he didn't even stiffen in an instant after teleportation...... How powerful is his control over psionic energy?

Absolute power is hard to draw conclusions without actual comparison, but in terms of skill, he is far superior to me. What's more, he should also be in the realm of the heart, and he completely restrains my brute force.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Dostina," Eddie had to be polite enough to a Grand Nun because of his age and seniority, even if the Sisters were an organization serving the Inquisition, "Lieutenant Colonel Ilshan is my brother and closest friend, please treat him as you would have treated me." ”

The Grand Nun was silent, but turned to look at me, as if she could see that I had given me enough face. I didn't dare to look at her too closely, but just a glance at it, the typical nun face with sharp angular cheekbones had already left an indelible impression on me.

As he spoke, Eddie walked over as well. Only then did I have time to take a closer look at this little brother who had suffered with me in the horrible prison of the Black Ship.

If it weren't for what I said before, I wouldn't have been able to recognize it at all. Twenty years have turned the short, thin, big-headed, and small-hearted child into a tall and heroic middle-aged man. He was now almost eight meters tall, half a head taller than me, with a stiff rectangular face, a neatly trimmed mustache, and a majestic and cold gaze in his eyes, which showed only a hint of warmth when he looked at me. He was dressed in a long black trench coat with the same black close-fitting and delicate power armor underneath it, and in his hand he held a blade that was even more formidable than the power sword - it was an energy sword, not only had the same energy force field as the power sword that could split a qiΔ“ armor, but also surfaced a layer of psionic power, making it possible for its blade to drain souls even if it just scratched the skin of an enemy.

Although he was only a trainee inquisitor, Add already possessed the courage to overwhelm most of the Empire's officials. Even I subconsciously wanted to raise my hand in salute. …,

Add walked up to me, reached out and grabbed my arm, and gave me a big hug. Although it is normal for comrades-in-arms to hug each other in the army, I still feel a little awkward to be hugged by my former little brother like this - I have completely lost the initiative.

"Long time no see, big brother. It's been a good year. He let go of me, took a step back, his eyes roaming up and down on me, his enthusiasm and longing overflowing.

Something isn't normal...... Aren't you from the Inquisition, if you have the heart to investigate, you should be able to easily grasp my every move......

"Hmm...... OK. I became a little stuttering, thinking that after meeting for so long, I was finally able to speak, "You too...... Oh, you look so much better than I am. ”

"Alas......" Eddie let out a long sigh, revealing a thick sense of vicissitudes and sadness, "If you knew what kind of life we lived, you wouldn't say that." ”

"Sorry to bother," interjected the Grand Nun, "I don't think it's time for your brother to catch up. We've taken out one enemy leader, but two more powerful Chaos Lords are still on our ship, and we can't afford to waste too much time here. ”

Indeed, the main forces of the World Eater and the Emperor's Son have not yet been encountered. However, the Whisperer Lord, who just beat me to death, is actually the weakest of them? How strong will those two stronger ones be?

But think about it, the leader of this Whisperer is indeed very miserable. The other two warbands all had company-sized Chaos Space Marines, while the Whisperers had only two guards, and the others were vulnerable heretic cannon fodder. There are only two soldiers who are not qualified to be called lords at all!

Seeing that the eldest nun took the lead and walked out of the dining room, I hurriedly stopped her, "Where are we going now?" Don't you deal with the wounded here? Where's your health care nun? ”

I don't have to care too much about the lives of the crew members who have just met me, but I can't care less about this Oglim veteran. After all, Oglin is a powerful and valuable fighting force, and although his injuries are miserable at the moment, since he has not died immediately, there is always a chance to save him with Oglin's strong vitality.

"A medical nun?" The Grand Nun looked blank, "We came out this time to carry out the mission of guarding and fighting, and we didn't bring any medical nuns." Oh, you mean those guys in the logic engine room? They're a different team. Although they have some medical skills, they can't walk away unless you can find someone to bring the wounded over. ”

Anyway, it's true that I misunderstood. Previously, the Grand Nun only mentioned the nuns' non-combat members in the communication channel, and it really didn't explicitly say that it was a medical nun, which I thought of myself.

Seeing the Grand Nun disappear outside the door, I hurriedly took into my psionic space. It was a risky move, and although it had been confirmed that time did not flow in space, it was the first time I had used it to hold something alive, and I had no idea what would happen.

Add glanced at my movements, but didn't say a word.

Just as she was about to walk out, the Grand Nun suddenly turned back and asked, "My lord, it is unfortunate that there are several disappointing beings among my sisters. What advice do you have on what to do with them? ”

Following the gaze of the Grand Nun, the previous captured Battle Nuns were crouching in the corner in a daze, as if they had not yet woken up from the words of the Speaker.

Adi was silent for a moment, as if he was unwilling to take the responsibility of killing his own people, and easily pushed the problem to me, "Big brother, what do you think?" ”

"There is no place for cowards here." I said decisively, "The Empire will not tolerate any cowardice, nor will it allow any kind of contact with Chaos. However, I think we have no extra bullets and fuel to carry out the Emperor's rulings or bestow mercy on the Emperor, and the only ammunition we have must be used on the enemy. So, those sinners, I think they should be given a chance to be cleansed from their sins, with the blood of their enemies or their own. ”…,

I also don't like having my hands covered in my own blood. I prefer to put sinners in correctional camps rather than shooting. Of course, the nuns do not have a penal camp, but they do have atonements.

"Very reasonable to build. I think my sisters who have gone astray will thank you for this glorious and precious opportunity. The Grand Nun said slowly, "So, what's next?" ”

"What's next?" How to answer such an inexplicable question?

"Of course, Lieutenant Colonel Ilshan. Have you forgotten? Not long ago, during a phone call, the Inquisitor handed over the command of my sisters to you. Most of them are not here, but now that we no longer need our protection, my direct Honorary Guards can be placed under your command, including myself, of course. ”

As Grand Nun Dostina's words fell, sonorous footsteps resounded through the corridor, and soon a group of more than a dozen heavily armed battle nuns came up. They were better equipped than the ones I'd seen before, and more importantly, they seemed to have plenty of ammunition.

I had to work hard to control the urge to scratch my head. The psionic blast caused a lot of casualties to my crew, and even those who survived lost the ability to stand up, and when I was almost at the end of the mountain, I was a little overwhelmed by the sudden appearance of a good card with great weight in my hand.

As they were thinking, Sylvia and Ashwarya approached. Sylvia put down the communicator in her ear and exclaimed, "Good news, the Mervid Picker has also arrived, and my Marines are embarking!" ”

Another good card!

"First of all, we need to establish a coordinated command system. Let's go, let's go to the logic engine room! I waved my hand.

Until a new plan is come up with, it's better to stick with the old one, at least with a goal that the fighters will have something to do. Otherwise, if you have nothing to do, your morale will drop.

Emperor forbid, we're going to fight back soon!
