Chapter 2011 The Curse House
“Hurry!!!!”
The shrill scream made Hayes creepy and even more anxious. He, the stickworm and the big ear monster quickly pushed the dirt into the trench with his hands to try to extinguish the flames. Cabri even jumped into the trench where the flames had not been completely extinguished, and carried out the fish-headed brother who was already charred all over.
At this time, his miserable condition was hard to describe in words. The skin on his entire face had almost melted, his lips and eyelids were gone, one eye had melted into a gel, the other was congested and swollen, his teeth were exposed to the air, and the whole person looked like an ugly strange fish.
Hayes immediately groped in to twist the cap to open the bottle, but Hashet stopped him.
"Cleaning the wound first."
He nodded in panic, and Hayes hurriedly did it, but as soon as he tried to peel off the charred armor on Fitz's body, his fingers were burned several bubbles. As the armor peeled off, large areas of skin and tissue were peeled off, revealing the dark red body.
"water……"
Fitz moaned, blood flowing down his slightly deformed mouth, with foam, and his broken teeth were like scarlet dead wood.
"Here! Here! Brother Yutou, you won't be in trouble. Let's call the emergency soldiers right away!"
The big-eared monster Peak responded in a crying voice, quickly twisted the bottle cap and dripped the last bit of water into the other party's mouth, which had no lips. Fitz shivered, and the pain visible to the naked eye swallowed his broken body.
"My Skyhawk..."
Fitz struggled to fumble with his hands on his body. Hayes then realized something and quickly stuffed the bronze eagle eagle eagle pendant that had burned the rope but was almost branded on his chest into Fitz's hand.
Holding the pendant, although this caused his two excessively burnt fingers to break, Fitz still took a breath with peace.
"I-I thought...I thought I could overcome it...those voices-the God Emperor protected me-I...I thought I could...but sometimes...uh...sometimes I could..."
Fitz spoke vaguely and incoherently, Hashet had stopped his hand and shook his head.
Tears fell from Hays' eyes and hit the charred body of his comrades. Fitz looked very strange and many people called him a mutant, but he had a sincere and kind heart. Even though he had been tortured by such language and behavior since childhood, he would always smile and push the people around him twice with his shoulders.
Fitz joined the army voluntarily. Hayes remembered clearly that Fitz's family lived by the huge sewage lake in the bottom nest, and lived by hunting mutated underwater creatures for generations. Perhaps because of curses or other blasphemy, the members of their family began to gradually develop physical mutations, and became more and more serious, making them wear wet and broken cloaks when they went out. The neighbors claimed that they were mutants and evil creatures abandoned by the God Emperor. Even the fishing catch they had to catch were sold at a lower price than others before someone bought them.
After hearing the priest say that joining the Expeditionary Force can atone for sins and purify physical and mental sins, Fitz sneaked out to the recruitment team, and even paid a little bribe to be enlisted.
He just hopes that through his service, he can really lift the curse that has enveloped his loved ones.
But Hashett also scoffed at this, saying that it was just because their family was too close to polluted water, because the mutation caused by various dirt over time had nothing to do with sin.
But Fitz always believed that he would receive the redemption of the God Emperor and his family would do it.
"Divine Emperor... I'm satisfied you..."
With the last gasp and the cry of Peak, the light in Fitz's only remaining eye disappeared, and the pendant fell from his hand, covered in blood, and Hays picked it up, tears flashing in his eyes.
Such a simple thing, such a small prayer.
At this time, the battle on the high ground also ended with the victory of the empire again. They drove the heresy off the high ground. One of the only two Chaos Space Marines was taken away by plasma cannons while running away. The remaining one fled with the lackeys in a panic, trying to return to the starting position to rest and fight again.
However, a strong light from the sky ended their dreams.
Everyone first saw a bright yellow beam piercing through the sky and falling down, followed by a roar of millions of thunder. Even though they were separated by dozens of miles, it was still deafening. Some people's eardrums were even broken. Then the slight impact felt by their skin, which continued to expand, and eventually turned into a continuous strong wind mixed with hot dust.
All this lasted only a few seconds, but it brought many soldiers a lifetime of shock. It was the first time they were observing orbital bombing at close range.
The picture seemed like a stone falling into the ashes. The stretching mountains first expanded briefly, and then burst out. The huge mushroom cloud wrapped in thick dust and erupted like broken spores, followed by a strong vibration from the ground.
In an instant, the fortress established by the enemy was destroyed, and the Red Pirate Army, who witnessed this scene, collapsed and quickly disappeared into the dust.
The flag of the 310th Infantry Regiment of Abubakari was re-erected on the 411th Highlands, and the base of the flag was the killing of several Chaos Space Marines. Arni stood on the corpse holding the flagpole, holding the sword high, and uttering a victory call in the strong wind. The two followers took photos in a wild manner. These photos would be sent to the rear and became another part of Arni's heroic deeds.
In the distant Sagan, he had become a regular visitor to the military propaganda department and gradually gained popularity because he established a character who was always on the front line, and even had the nickname of Sagan Dragon, although he was still just a colonel now.
After taking the photos, Alni still performed the duties of the regiment commander, counting casualties, counting equipment, reporting to superiors, and re-ordering the strengthening of defense. The destruction of the enemy's fortress does not mean that the enemy's artillery threat does not exist. Now they are at the forefront and new enemies may launch attacks at any time.
At the same time, while listening to the battle report, Alni also noticed the company commander named Olanios. It was his heroic behavior that saved the almost collapsed situation.
Such a person is worthy of promotion. Although the regiment has a bad reputation about the company commander, he is superstitious and treacherous, and some people even think that he has mental problems, Alni remembers that there is a saying in the legend of Makarius that there is never any conflict between quirks and talents.
So he called Olanios and made his decision.
"The first battalion commander is dead, you can be the one."
But this man, who was unkempt and had a dirty face, could only tell that his eyes and teeth were just squeamishly replied.
"I... just want to take my soldiers."
"Your soldier? Your company?"
"ah."
"Then you become the second battalion commander, and the second battalion commander will be changed to the first battalion commander, that's it."
