Five hours ago.

Reliquary vault not far from the Monastery of the World Eater Legion.

The Reliquary Vault is permanently manned by 100 Terra-World Eater veterans wearing MK2 and MK3, who guard the Reliquary Vault day in and day out, as usual.

In the distance, a platoon of troop carriers appeared, heading straight for the reliquary.

These troop carriers are World Feeder liveries, and the Relic Vault needs to be repaired and inspected from time to time, and the work of these maintenance inspections is of course done by the technical sergeants of the World Eater Legion.

Therefore, although it was not the day of regular inspection and maintenance, the Terra-origin veterans were not overly vigilant, and only took normal precautions.

It's just that this time it's not the Techno Sergeant, it's Captain Gruna Centurion who arrives with 100 World Eaters wearing the brand new MK4 Extreme Power Armor.

A Terra veteran stepped forward to stop Gruna and asked, "Centurion, tell me what you're here for." ”

Centurion Gruna replied in a puzzled tone, "We're here to change guards, what?" Didn't your Startalkers get noticed? Shouldn't it? ”

The Terra-Terran veteran looked behind him, and someone immediately ran backwards.

There are just 100 people coming from Gruner's side, no more, no less, so I shouldn't lie to them.

At most, these Terra-descendant veterans thought that something might be wrong with the Star Communication, so they didn't receive the message.

After all, who would have thought that Horus, who had only been in command for a long time, would rebel?

Seeing that most of the Terran veterans had let their guard down, Captain Gruna Centurion informed his personnel over the communicator that they were ready.

After saying this, Gruna walked up to the Terra-descended World Eater veteran and sighed, "You have been guarding here for a long time, the empire needs these experienced warriors to participate in the last glory of the Great Expedition, I really envy you!" ”

Gruner's words immediately made the Terra-descendant World Eater veterans present smile.

In their opinion, it is far better to be able to fight on the battlefield for the great emperor than to sit here and be a guard.

Just as most of the Terran veterans let their guard down and discussed the joy of fighting for the Emperor again.

Gruner's power grab instantly pierced the heads of the veterans beside him.

The moment Gruner made his move, the 100 World Eaters who followed him also made his move, and the explosive guns fired ferociously at the veterans who were still silent in joy around them.

The shameless sneak attack instantly brought down a large number of veterans.

The troop carriers jumped out of the World Eaters, some with power axes, some with blasters or plasma guns, and rushed towards the remaining Terra-veterans.

The few remaining Terra-descendant veterans wept blood and roared, "Traitor!! ”

"Despicable !!"

"Damn !!"

The Terra-veterans who reacted used their seriously injured or dead companions as shields to fight back against Gruna and his party.

Although there are not many people left, the combat effectiveness of the Terra-veterans is unquestionable.

Two veterans wearing MK2 power armor, one of them grabbed the corpse of a companion wearing MK3 power armor, and against the enemy's fire net, he rushed into the front row of enemies.

The traitors were taken by surprise by their determination and fearlessness, so much so that two veterans rushed into the crowd.

The veterans who approached the enemy smashed the corpses of their comrades into the enemy, brandished their power swords, and began to be unequaled in the crowd.

No sooner had they stormed the crowd than two Terra veterans killed five or six of the rebels.

Although the rebels' equipment is more advanced than that of the veterans, their combat experience and on-the-spot reaction ability are much inferior to the veterans.

Seeing that five or six people had been killed as soon as he covered his face, Centurion Gruna roared angrily, and rushed towards a Terra veteran with a power axe in one hand and a power grab in the other.

The two sides fought for more than a dozen convergences, and the wounded veteran was hacked to death by the Gruna centurion with a few axes.

Another veteran was also killed by several World Eaters.

This time, it was the turn of the Gruna Centurion to charge at the few remaining Terra veterans, and the rest of the World Eaters roared after the Gruna Centurion and killed the remaining Terra veterans.

Among them was a World Eater wearing an anti-psionic suppression amplification collar, escorted by several World Eaters, and rushed to the location of the Star Whisperer.

Under the siege of several times the enemy, the remaining Terra-descendant veterans did not last long, and all died in untold rage.

After cleaning up the place, leaving a group of men to guard, Centurion Gruna and the others quickly got into the troop carrier and drove towards the rest of the world.

Today's purge, this is clearly just the beginning.

When Liu Haodong dressed up as Blinken and returned to the laboratory, he saw a team of fully armed Space Marines wearing a brand-new MK4 extreme power armor.

One of them did not wear a helmet, and Liu Haodong was still very familiar with it.

Centurion of Gruna.

"Blinken, what are you busy with?" Centurion Gruna asked impatiently.

"What's wrong?" Liu Haodong asked arrogantly, this is also Blinken's attitude towards other Space Marines.

Centurion Gruna and Blinken have known each other for a long time, and they know some about Blinken, so he doesn't care about Blinken's attitude.

Gruner also came to Blinken before, said something similar to Liu Haodong before, and then asked Blinken whether to choose Horus or emperor.

Blinken, dressed as Liu Haodong, must have chosen Horus, but he also told Gruner vaguely at the time.

Now that the monastery has begun to purge loyalists, Gruna has brought a team of heavily armed World Eaters with a clear purpose.

"So, what's your choice now?" Gruner asked, staring at Blinken.

"Horus, of course!" Blinken said without hesitation.

"A wise choice." Gruner nodded.

Gruner asked, and prepared to leave with the team of heavily armed World Eaters.

Before leaving, Gruner said to Blinken again: "By the way, those Terra-veterans in charge of the relic's vault have been dealt with, when you are free, you can go and check it out, I remember you went to check it once before to see if it can be used." ”

"Good!" Blinken nodded.

After they left, Liu Haodong returned to the laboratory and sat at the lab table, but did nothing.

"So, the gunshots in that direction just now came from the Relic Vault?" Liu Haodong muttered to himself.

Perhaps shameful for stealing from the Reliquary Vault, Blinken's experiment log doesn't describe the Reliquary Vault too much.

Therefore, Liu Haodong doesn't know much about the holy relics vault, and only knows that there is such a place on the planet Podett.

But he didn't know what was in the reliquary.

However, since it is a 'holy relic' vault, there should be a lot of good things in it.

As soon as the day passed, the monastery was completely under the control of the mutinous side.

"I don't know what's going on over there." Liu Haodong said.

……

At this moment, Zhou Yuzhu felt very big.

Originally, it took her a day to dig a few meters deep in the basement to make a simple shelter, thinking about the rest of the days, so she hid here.

But things didn't go as smoothly as she thought, so she went down to the first floor, and the cannonballs she didn't know were on the third floor.

The third and second floors collapsed immediately, and the ruins smashed to the ground, blocking the access to the basement.

Just when Zhou Yuzhu was speechless, the World Devourers, who were originally attacking fiercely, suddenly slowed down their attack.

Zhou Yuzhu even saw a world devourer not far away, pressing his helmet with one hand, as if listening to something. 、

Without waiting for Zhou Yuzhu to guess, this world devourer instantly became furious.

Although the helmet was in the way, Zhou Yuzhu could still sense that the space soldier was in an unimaginable rage.

"What's going on?" Zhou Yuzhu looked confused.

She guessed that the power armor of the Space Marines should have their communication channel, but she couldn't guess what information made the group of Space Marines so angry?

The group of Space Marines did not go on the offensive again.

Instead, they ran towards the city's underground passages.

Zhou Yuzhu was even more stunned, and at this time, a flying machine she didn't know flew by not far away.

Looking at the speed and movements of those space marines running into the underground passage, Zhou Yuzhu also decided to take a gamble, here she is a little more familiar than the star soldiers who just came in.

So Zhou Yuzhu also rushed into the underground passage, the entrance of this underground passage is not a regular entrance, it should have been a hole here, but it was repaired and looked like an entrance.

Space Marines, who are nearly two meters and a half meters in power armor, have a bit of a struggle to enter through this entrance.

But there is no pressure on the 1.73-meter Zhou Yuzhu.

The underground passage has never been in Zhou Yuzhu's alternative, because it is convenient in all directions, and it is not very safe.

But now that she had no place to prepare, she could only follow the Space Marines who had hurriedly hid in the underground passages.

She had to create a shelter in the underground passage as soon as possible that would accommodate her.
