Chapter 211: The Battle of the Passage
While waiting for reinforcements to arrive, Layla made a simple plan.
No matter how many Space Marines the Warlord will send and how many defenders in the fortress will be, only bring about thirty Space Marines to attack the enemy.
In the face of more than a hundred enemies wearing Terminator armor, thirty Space Marines is a little too little, but even three hundred are afraid that they will not be able to win.
The role of these thirty Space Marines is to attract the attention of the enemy and create an opportunity for faster, agile, and stronger people to approach the enemy.
This faster, more agile and stronger person is naturally Leila herself.
As for what to do after approaching......
Lyra remembered that there was a spirit xenomorph in the image she had just seen, and that xenomorph was holding a glowing device, which was supposed to be something that could lead the way.
So the goal is to kill the alien and destroy the guiding device.
After making a quick plan, Leila prepares to find a suitable ambush location in the fortress.
……
The Weepers are still moving through the passage, they have been walking for a long time, killing tens of thousands of enemies and even destroying a few tanks along the way, but there is still no end in sight to this huge passage, and it is unknown how long it will go.
Behind the weepers, Astartes were Gray and Sal, who walked at the rear.
Thrall held a spirit bone device that radiated a guiding light in his hand, and his job was to guide the way, but he had not opened his mouth to point the way since he was teleported into the Blackstone Fortress, because the spirit bone device showed that this passage with no end in sight was the correct route.
Gray, who was next to Sal, was not involved in any of the battles, and it was his job to protect Thrall.
"How long do we have to go?"
"Just received a communication, the enemy fleet in the galaxy has begun to evacuate, and the Blackstone Fortress we are in is slow to evacuate, but sooner or later it will enter the rift."
Gray kept relaying the latest news to Thrall along the way, reminding him that if there was anything that could get everyone to the heart of the Blackstone Fortress right away, now was the time to use it.
However, Thrall didn't have the ability to press the bottom of the box at all, and he could only move slowly following the guidance of the Spirit Bone Device, because the Spirit Bone Device didn't know where the core was right now, but was constantly collecting signals to deduce the location of the core.
"It seems that we will most likely have to follow the Blackstone Fortress into subspace." Gray had to prepare for the worst.
"We can't enter the subspace." Foros, who was walking in front, looked back at Gray, "We must leave before the Blackstone Fortress enters subspace, we must!" ”
"Why?" It was the first time Gray had heard Foros speak in a stern tone. He didn't know what was in the subspace, but he had heard a little bit about it before.
Almost all Tyronens, like Gray, either know nothing about subspace or know a little but not much.
"Traitors don't usually use the Geller stance that can isolate subspace creatures, and if we follow the Blackstone Fortress into the subspace together, it's over."
Although Foross was vague, Gray was aware of the danger, and instead of thinking that even if the Blackstone Fortress entered subspace, he would have to complete the mission, but planned to go as far as he could, and bury a teleportation beacon when he left the Blackstone Fortress.
"We still have some time." Thrall said and looked around, "It didn't want to leave, so it deliberately slowed down, otherwise it would have entered subspace early." ”
The others didn't pay attention to this sentence and still moved on.
The light emitted by the Spirit Bone Device became more and more dazzling, and finally an upward slope suddenly appeared in the straight passage that had remained unchanged in front of it.
Everyone except Thrall was shocked by what they saw, Foros was relieved to remember the subspace rift in the galaxy, and Gray was relieved to recall the paranormal phenomena he had seen in the Foundry World.
After walking up the slope, the group came to a very strange-looking space.
There are many entrances, with various ramps and steps leading in a slightly twisted way in front of each entrance.
Both Gray and Astarte felt a little dizzy, but the Elvens had the senses to adapt to this kind of space, and Thrall was at home here.
"Come with me." Thrall made his way to the front of the group to lead the way, deftly navigating the stairs and slopes, occasionally glancing at the skeleton device, leading the group to an entrance in the middle of the space.
The light of the spirit bone device shone even brighter, and Thrall seemed to be holding a searchlight.
After deftly ascending the new staircase, Thrall looked back at the others behind him, who were crawling slowly and awkwardly up the stairs.
It's not that Gray and the others are not fast and physically sensitive, it's just that the steep slopes and stairs at odd angles make their senses very uncomfortable.
Just as Thrall looked back at the others, a gunshot rang out from inside the entrance, and Thrall felt something very fast fly out of his head, and an explosion sounded a few seconds later.
Astarte, a weeper who had just climbed the stairs, was hit by a blast that Thrall dodged past, but the bomb failed to penetrate Terminator A.
The Astarte watched calmly and saw thirty Black Legion Space Marines running over at a brisk pace, without any mortal minions.
More bombs followed.
Thrall hid behind Astarte the moment he saw the enemy, untouched by the bombs.
More and more Astartes had climbed the stairs to join the battle, and the distance between the two sides was rapidly closing as the two sides exchanged fire, until Thrall, who was hiding behind the Astartes and secretly observing, saw a figure with two knives, who was incredibly fast and extremely dexterous.
It's none other than Leila who walks through the space marines.
"Be careful!" Sal reminded loudly.
By this time, Lyra had rushed to the weepers, slashing off the arms of the man who was about to open fire on her, and then rushed towards Thrall.
Thrall was stunned at the first official sight of Lyra, who saw a surge of murderous intent in Lyra's eyes.
As Thrall froze, Forros and Gray passed past him, wielding their chainsaw swords and stabbing power spears, but Lyra dodged them.
Leila's body spun like a graceful dancer, and she dodged and swung a knife at Sal's neck, so fast that Thrall could not react in time even though he saw it.
At the last moment, Gray used the bullet time to approach and cut off Lyra's arm, and Foross Power Spear followed closely behind to cut off Lyra's other limbs one after another.
Leila didn't even react to what had happened after she fell to the ground, and he felt like his limbs were still swinging his knife instead of being chopped.
Lyra couldn't do anything now but watch as the thirty Space Marines she had brought with her were annihilated by the Weepers.
The plan failed.
"My next communication will decide your fate." Gray put his arm on Lyra's head, and then contacted Qin Mo in the Celestial Engine Bridge.
I wrote three chapters late today, and I sent them all while I wrote the remaining two chapters.
Say five more chapters, five more chapters, anyway, you don't have to go to work tomorrow to write until ten o'clock, it's fine.
