Chapter 377: Death, or More Tragic Than Death
++ One Thought of the Day: Torch Candle Emperor's Chronicles, Cave Extinguishing Spirits. ++
Susanna. Dafith walked alone in the empty passageway. There seemed to be no one left on the entire cruiser, and she found several high-ranking nun's cabins, which were all empty. Everything was neatly organized, as if the owners of these rooms were just out at the same time.
The nun pondered for a moment, probably having a vague idea, but she didn't have a servo skull with her, and she couldn't link the entire command sequence with her communicator alone, and she couldn't query the previous communication command release records.
She reviewed in her mind the personal information sent by the trial court before the mission:
ββββββ
Su Jing, male, between the ages of 20 and 23.
Considered highly intelligent, human-looking, and cunning, the Tyranids possess strong cellular resilience, devour the energy of others, and possess several dangerous supernatural abilities.
The approach is mild and negotiable, but the hand is quite tough.
Fighting abilities are comparable to those of a Space Marine. The psionic strength is about alpha level. It is also important to note that its technological prowess is comparable to that of the High Priests of the Mechanicus.

"Damn heretics, unbelieversβ"
Suzanne opened an airtight door in a hallway, and the ugly sight before her made her feel sick to her stomach and intense anger.
The six low-ranking nuns fell to the ground in all directions, and it was evident that the nuns on the ground seemed to be divided into two factions, and they had fought each other here. Two of the nuns had enough wounds to kill them three times, but the two nuns knocked down the other four with bruising. Because it wasn't during the mission, the people in both factions wore civilian robes. The only weapons seem to be a few sabers.
The two nuns had their bellies sliced open, but they still retained their terrifying vitality. When Suzanne was seen walking into the hallway. The two nuns, who had fallen to the ground, slammed into her with all their might, sharp nails grabbing at her ankles.
"Drink!"
Fully trained as a combat nun. Susanna, who also excelled in the Academy. There was no way that Daphiss would have been scheming by an attack of this magnitude. Her boot broke one of the nun's wrist bones with a single kick, and then broke the other nun's neck with a side kick. In order to avoid future troubles, she directly burned the nun to ashes with a single shot.
"It's ...... What witchcraft? β
The saint leaned down and took a closer look at the nun who was being controlled. The pupils of her eyes were extremely dilated, and her eyes were dull and dull. Suzanne held out her palm and pressed it against her head, and the light slowly soaked into the other's head.
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
She "saw" a white beetle lying in the nun's brain, entrenched in the middle of the medulla oblongata and brainstem, and the beetle's six arthropods were connected to the cerebral cortex and spinal nerves with slender guidewires, delicately manipulating the host's every move.
Suzanne showed no mercy. She skillfully manipulated the divine power from the Great God Emperor to crush the beetle with one hand. Unexpectedly, the beetle exploded the moment it died, shattering the nun's medulla. The nun who fell to the ground twitched, and then died bleeding from her mouth and nose.
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β
Susanna. Dai Feisi's face turned pale, and at this time her calf hurt slightly. The nuns, who looked fainted, had crawled to her feet and grabbed her calves with incredible force.
"Damn it!" Enraged, the Living Saint kicked them several meters away, followed by a burst of hot melt pistols, killing them all. A numbness gradually came from the calf. She hurriedly lifted her robe, and on her smooth calves, the nails of her teeth were still deeply embedded in the flesh. The divine power made her invulnerable, but the toxin seemed to give her only a relaxation of her nerves and a slight but difficult feeling of euphoria. There is also a hormone that is somewhat difficult to distinguish......
Not the lethality and variability of Nurgle's followers. Nor is it a sensory amplification of the Slaanesh faction...... She scrutinized her body for a moment with the light, and the answer made her pale.
It is follicle-stimulating hormone.
A hormone that allows a woman's ovaries to rapidly produce a large number of eggs in a short period of time is commonly used in livestock breeding and infertility-related symptoms. Due to the large side effects, it can cause damage to the secretory and reproductive systems of the human body. Therefore, it is rarely used in medical treatment.
The anger of the humiliation made her almost lose her mind, and she cursed the zerg in a rage. While running wild in the hallway. The daughters of the God Emperor are fearless! The wings of the Light spread out behind her, giving her not only a majesty that mortals would not look at directly, but also a powerful arm in battle. The slight anti-gravity field allows her to move lightly, even in three-dimensional jumps and combat stances that are unimaginable to ordinary people. Compared to the Seraphic Combat Group that needs a jetpack, this pair of Light Wings is more flexible and convenient!
Through the traces of the battle, Susanna. Dai Fes had roughly determined the direction of origin of the infected. After a few more simple reasoning, she immediately determined that the other party's lair was in the chapel!
The airtight door opened, and more than a dozen nuns were gathering at the door of a common room in full dress, all of them not looking very good. Seeing the Living Saint hurriedly appear in front of them, the nuns were taken aback.
"Uh, Her Highness Dafeth? Do you know what's going on? Our regimental commander gave the order, but when we contacted it again, it was ...... No response? The leading nun carried a chainsaw sword at her waist, this person Suzanne knew, the commander of the first company of the Order's First Teaching Order, the Angel Force, had served the Order for almost twenty years, "We don't know if this is a big fuss, but along the way...... I always feel that the atmosphere is a little weird. β
Suzanne took a deep breath, she looked around at the dazed nuns, worthy of the old soldiers of the first company, much more vigilant than those less experienced warriors.
"Sisters." She said slowly, "This battleship is now in an extremely dangerous situation. There is a ...... The new Tyranid Gene Thieves, freed from the trap of the stasis force, are multiplying his army with innocent nuns as his peture dishes. Now he is entrenched in the chapel, luring you into a trap with false lies! β
The company commander's face suddenly became very serious. All the nuns straightened up and began to check the weapons they were carrying.
Suzanne made the math. Although they do not have heavy firepower, these nuns are basically fully equipped. Also wearing power armor...... Enough is enough!
She raised the lightning hammer in her hand and shouted:
"In His name, purify heresy!"
ββββββ
Su Jing was entrenched in the cobwebs, sitting on the dome like a monster in the night. The flame of the sacred candle had been extinguished, and the whole great chapel had fallen into complete darkness and silence. From time to time, a few meaningless moans and whispers were heard from the distant roar of the huge engine, the last fragment of the mind of the victim wrapped in a cobweb.
In the psionic vision, above the myriad dim rays of life, a blazing white and clean flame dwells in the depths of darkness. The ancient rib in Su Jing's chest was almost completely sunk into his ribcage. Judging by the depth, it has completely pierced his heart. The light of the relic's light was slowly fading at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye, completely swallowed by this greedy body that did not know how to eat.
Su Jing's ears twitched slightly, and the ornately carved door of the chapel slowly pushed open, and a team of nuns cautiously paced in in a battle formation.
The pitch-black hall didn't stump them, not to mention that the power armor had night vision. A cylinder has been lost. The light like a stellar explosion suddenly erupted, and Su Jing couldn't help but cover his eyes.
"Oh my God! It's true! β
"Company commander! Do you want to save people first? β
"Find that zerg first!"
The dense cobwebs maze in the chapel shocked the nuns, and Su Jing slowly crawled among the cobwebs, hiding in the darkness to observe them.
"Burn these cobwebs." Suzanne ordered.
"Your Highness. If these cobwebs are flammable, then the sisters who are wrapped in them ......" the company commander asked with a frown.
"They've been defiled." Suzanne glanced at her, "All the people who have been genetically polluted by the Zerg are purified, so you don't need me to teach you." β
"Understood. Your Highness. β
While the rest of the nuns began to set the webs on fire with flamethrowers, Suzanne held the hammer in both hands and brushed the webs apart by herself. Step into the maze.
"Come out! Coward! She looked around, in her eyes burning with flames. All darkness is clear. Her eyes swept over the cocoons, and the nuns had evil seeds in their bellies. Tragic end...... There were more captured than she had imagined, and I am afraid that half of the two teaching regiments were here.
This was the beast's temple of silk, and she realized it in an instant when she noticed the logic and aesthetics contained in the cobwebs. When the soul of that visitor from another world is swept into the subspace, the body controlled by instinct becomes a simple and powerful beast. But the beast also has its own consciousness, which is combined with the memories and consciousness that remain in the body to form this distorted mind......
And a twisted beast, all he wanted...... Boost your strength. So he ensnared the nuns to become his womb. And this is the nest he built, this powerful beast that looks down on them on the biological chain, with the remnants of his consciousness, the fragments of aesthetics, forged this realm of silk mesh.
So......
She struck back, and the heavy lightning hammer drew a beautiful arc that struck the king of insects and beasts. The arm, which was no longer human, blocked the blow, and a crisp cracking sound was heard, and the entire arm was slammed off by the powerful lightning hammer, and it hung limply. But as if the other party was in no pain, several arthropods had already been pierced.
At this moment, Suzanne dodged with a agility that was difficult for humans to achieve, and she dodged the opponent's high-speed stab attack in the vortex like a fiery flame. The lightning hammer was a heavy weapon no heavier than a piece of paper in her hands. The flaming wings of light constantly clashed with the opponent's arthrops and whiskers, making strange noises.
Syllable!
With a crisp sound, Suzanne couldn't dodge, and was whipped by the other party's tentacles on her neck. The whole person was driven by huge kinetic energy, and volleyed out of the air. As soon as it hit the wire mesh, it was sticky, and there was nowhere to borrow strength in mid-air, so he could only struggle hard.
"Su Jing" approached her with a calm pace, admiring her struggling appearance, and suddenly, a hot molten shock shot out of Susanna's waist and hit the chest of the insect beast. The half-human, half-beast monster flew upside down and knocked over a silk cocoon.
A clatter sounded in Susanna's ears, and she turned her head to see that it was a brindled spider the size of a fist. The black and white spider was crouching on the web, and the eight compound eyes looked at her coldly.
Many silk cocoons began to writhe, and one by one spiders began to tear through the silk cocoons and crawl out of their mothers. Dozens of spotted spiders could crawl out of each silk cocoon, and even if he had seen the unimaginable evil of ordinary people, the living saint still felt a burst of creepy. Through the crack in the wire web blasted by the hot melt gun, Suzanne struggled to break free from the cobweb.
Su Jing had already gotten up, but a burst of shotgun fire blasted him into flesh and blood. The captain of the nuns' squad, the company commander, had already rushed forward with a rifle.
"Your Highness, it is difficult for these wire meshes to burn with flamethrowers alone......"
"Cover me!" Suzanne flapped her wings and lunged out, slamming a hammer into the belly of the beast that had fallen to the ground, splattering blood and straining the beast in a fury that bound her to herself with its arthropods. The saint let go of the lightning hammer, drew the hot melt pistol, and hit his head in a continuous blast, she didn't believe that this would not kill him! Burn every cell of his with a divine flame!
Just as she was about to pull the trigger, several tentacles pulled her wrist apart. The beast seemed to realize that this was a matter of life and death, and the two fell into a brief wrestling. Suzanne ignored the deep penetrating wounds that her arthropuses were inflicting, and just pointed the muzzle of her hot melt pistol at Su Jing's head in a frenzy.
The Sisters' Company Commander rushed forward and drew his chainsaw sword.
"Cut off its tentacles!" Suzanne growled.
The buzzing blade slashed down like thunder, and Susanna's slender wrist was cut off after only half a second of resistance.
Before the Living Saint could react to what was happening, she stared blankly at the company commander, what was her name? It seems that she used to be a student who graduated from the same academy as her, but when did she forget her name?
By the way, it's Rosa......
The chainsaw sword fell a second time, and the head of the living saint flew high, spun and rolled to the ground.
Nun Rosa kicked the angel's body away, and then carefully lifted the insect beast on the ground. She humbly knelt down in front of Su Jing and whispered, "Lord, this slut will be reborn." There are only a few ways to suppress her resurgence ......"
Beneath her battle armor, a black and white spider lies around her neck. (To be continued......)
PS: I'm going to stay up late tonight to draw again...... (Actually, I'm not laughing.)
