Chapter 625: Meet the Witch Spirit Again
The Elves of all the defensive sites on the road had already mobilized, listening to the reports from the combatants in front of them, while nervously waiting for the terrifying warriors of their colleagues to kill their side.
The combat power of the six Thunder Warriors and the tactical effects they displayed were amazing.
Gaunt led Bandis, a group of old men who had lived and fought together since the War of Unification of Terra, charged forward as fast as they could.
After a few more battles in a row, the Thunder Warriors' defenses upgraded.
Some of the Dark Eldar vehicles had their shells or metal plates torn off, and as before, they had been forcibly formed into a single piece by brute force by the Thunder Warriors, and then strung together with anything softer they could find.
As for the weapon, what is the use, anyway, anything can be used as a killing tool in the hands of the Thunder Warrior.
The level of their equipment is outrageously inferior.
Astarte, the Forbidden Army, all the superhuman warriors made by the Emperor except for the Thunder Warriors, would never fight with such a poor level of equipment, but the Thunder Warriors are used to it.
In the early days of the War of Terra Unification, the armor worn by the Thunder Warriors was literal armor.
There is no power assist unit.
Heavy, sluggish, not iterated by design, with a lot of all sorts of little issues.
Even the design of the upper body armor with a power unit and the lower body without it was already equipment in the late war.
The Thunder Warrior relied purely on his powerful flesh to prop up the entire armor.
This is inconceivable to Astarte, who uses aids such as a black carapace to control armor, as the power armor becomes a humanoid walking coffin when it loses power.
It's still okay to move, but it's still too difficult for a strong man to drive armor with muscle-generated bio-energy like the Thunder Warrior.
As the breakthrough player of the six-man combat team, Bandis is always at the forefront of the charge with a gun.
In order to maximize its defenses, Bandis hung armor plates torn from Xenomorph vehicles on the front.
The Dark Eldar vehicles are extremely fast and ignore defense, and the armor plates of those large vehicles are just right for the Thunder Warriors to use as bulletproof plates.
With Bandis as the main combat force.
There are also four people who are spread around Bandis.
Gunter was an officer behind Bandis who commanded and supported his comrades in other positions.
A total of six people killed all the alien enemies that appeared on the straight and vast avenue in front of them one after another.
Unlike the usual Astartes, the Thunder Warriors' fighting style is not very focused on concealment, their sound as they run wild is like lightning exploding in the wilderness, and their combat skills focus on the most brutal and violent means to render enemies ineffective and medically available in an instant.
As for cooperation, it is difficult for a squad that has received military training and has lived and died together without cooperation, whether it is Astarte or the Forbidden Army or the Thunder Warriors or the Mortal Army.
When Bandis charges, his other four old buddies will cover for him, taking out the most dangerous enemies who are not directly in front of him, and making sure that Bandis will not be fired at by other enemies during the charge.
Although none of the six had communicators, Gaunt, who was still responsible for commanding in battle, did not need to shout, and only needed a glance to let his subordinates know what to do.
The six of them have been together for too long, too long.
Even the other five, including Bandis, knew when they should look at Gaunt for the command from one look at him.
There was no language in the battle.
At first, the Thunder Warriors would make small talk, but that was because they hadn't conducted regular military operations for too long, and they were a little lax.
And soon after the battle began, they regained their habits on the real battlefield.
In the absence of communication devices, communication must be minimized so as not to interfere with the issuance and execution of orders.
Although there was no communication, it felt like Gaunt, who was rushing to find his death, but he commanded the entire team to penetrate every line of defense encountered as quickly as possible, in order to advance longer and deeper on this unobstructed straight passage in the shortest possible time.
This shows that Gaunt does not care about the thoughts of the people who are going to come in from outside, and what he wants to do is pursue a happy ending.
This so-called happy ending is; The Thunder Warriors died honorably in battle, and also fulfilled the high hopes given by the outsiders to open the portal.
Gaunt hates tragedy.
If he hadn't pursued a happy ending, he wouldn't have fled Terra with his men to seek his death from the enemy when rumors were rife on Terra.
Don't be unloaded and donkey-killed, and don't participate in a possible rebellion by the Thunder Warriors.
Not to die at the hands of his own people, and not to break his original oath of allegiance to the Lord of Lightning and Thunder, this is Gaunt's motive.
"Wait!"
After slaying through dozens of lines of defense and taking the lives of thousands of Dark Eldar Xenomorphs, Bendice broke the silence with a roar.
The entire Thunder Warrior squad stopped.
In their field of vision, Bandis was holding a spear and lowering his body, glaring fiercely at a witch spirit.
The so-called witch spirits are female warriors from the witch spirit sect in Comoros, and the purpose of their existence is to bring the most murderous performances to their compatriots in the gladiatorial arena.
The Witch Spirit Cult also regularly participates in raids, occasionally serving as bodyguards for some of the bigwigs.
When Bandis was seen confronted by the witch warrior, the people, including Gaunt, understood his thoughts.
Bendis is going to fight a duel with the Witch Spirit.
Although Bandis never revealed his heart, he was almost killed by an alien of the Witch Spirit Sect in the gladiatorial arena at that time, and finally relied on the functions of the flesh to carry out a blood-swapping counterattack at any cost to win the battle, which became Bandis's heart disease.
At that time, Bandis had a question about whether he would not have almost died in the gladiatorial arena if he had been young and normal.
He wanted to prove the doubt.
He wanted to blame all the scars he had suffered in the gladiatorial arena on aging and the Thunder Warriors' genetic defects, as it was about whether or not all of their Thunder Warriors had relied solely on the Emperor's technology to torture the human civil war on Terra.
As long as you go to the battlefield where you are fighting against powerful aliens, you will know what you are.
Bandis wanted to prove that he was just too old at the time.
The Thunder Warriors are far more unstable than Astarte and the Praetorian Army, and this instability includes irrationality and is more humane.
