Chapter 2 A true angel walks on earth
Indescribable holiness.
Indescribable beauty.
Indescribably powerful.
That glorious and perfect posture is undoubtedly a true god walking on earth.
Kano felt that his legs were shaking and his mouth was filled with a dry taste. When he saw the slender snow-white figure for the first time, an extremely strong instinct, as if it came from the depths of his genes, drove him to be pious.
Kneel down on the ground.
But even so, Kano did not relax his vigilance. His eyes fell on the snow-white wings behind the girl. Every white feather on them was flowing with brilliant brilliance, and they naturally swayed under the blazing sun.
A glow.
But one thing worth affirming is that, even though those wings are beautiful and sacred, they will not appear on a pure-blooded human being.
That is to say——
The girl in front of her and the foot-binding jaws hunting her behind her are actually part of the mutant tribe.
Kano bit his lip.
The taste of blood lingered in his mouth, making his brain wake up a little.
He clenched the crude homemade shotgun in his hand and shouted loudly in Aenokhian (the dialect of the Bawei pure-blood tribe), "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The perfect, holy, slender angel did not answer.
But the tenderness in her pale golden eyes made Kano subconsciously loosen his index finger on the trigger.
In the next moment.
Bang——
The angel started her action.
There was a violent explosion from the body of Baal Fire Scorpion under his feet. As it was torn apart, the girl had already jumped forward. Her speed and power were so fast that it far exceeded the limit of Kano's reaction. He just felt
When a strong gust of wind roared in my ears, the angel's figure disappeared from sight.
Whoa!
It is almost an instinct formed by fighting.
Kano turned around and looked back, his pupils suddenly shrinking like needles due to the explosion scene before his eyes.
The slender girl-like angel collided with the mutant beast as huge as a heavily armored chariot. The flawless snow-white fist like a work of art competed with the monster's scaly and armored head, making a loud noise.
At the same time, a ring visible to the naked eye exploded in the desert.
The body shapes between the two are completely disproportionate.
But in this no-frills collision, it was the mutant beast that was thrown away.
Kano could clearly see that the beast's huge body was undulating and squirming like waves due to the huge squeeze, and dark green blood exuding a foul smell of decay spewed out from dozens of large mouths. In a brief moment, the monster
More than a dozen arthropods rose into the air, waving in panic in mid-air.
However——
This is just the beginning.
Angel - a perfect person, her anger is like a blazing fire, and the dance of death also follows. With both arms, she grasps the largest and most vicious joint under the monster's jaw, and spins it hard, causing the monster to be huge and swollen.
The body also dances, spinning and accelerating in mid-air, causing the sound of hunting wind.
The speed is getting faster and faster, and the momentum is becoming more and more fierce.
When the kinetic energy applied to it increased to the extreme, the angel stretched its wings and leaped high, and the monster's body was lifted up and dropped at will like a stuffed toy. The sharp and harsh sound of breaking through the air was like the roar of beasts.
They exploded together, and the two abominable mutant beasts collided together. Hundreds of big mouths burst into painful howls at the same time, but the sound stopped suddenly——
Bang!
A top-down punch.
Squeezing the air, forming a surging white torrent that penetrates the bodies of the beasts, destroying the last trace of life in their bodies.
The girl landed lightly on the ground.
The hot wind came from nowhere and lifted up the snow-white skirt.
She walked towards Kano and O'Kelly step by step, and her perfect figure and the golden light gradually merged into one. Kano's eyes became blurred because of the secreted tears, and he heard O'Kelly kneeling on the ground.
The sound of devout prayer.
"Look!"
The skilled huntress spoke in a pious and trembling tone, "A true angel walks on earth, and she will definitely bring salvation."
Kano's inner defense was completely defeated by that glorious and perfect gesture.
He feebly loosened his fingers on the butt of the gun, feeling an unforgivable sin for his previous blasphemous thoughts. He wanted to kneel on the ground and kiss the angel's instep, and he did the same, but after a while
A perfect hand is on his arm.
"You don't have to kneel down to me."
Kano raised his head and saw the angel's eyes full of tenderness and compassion. She did not speak, but Kano understood what she wanted to express through those bright eyes, "I am just one among millions of people.
No different from you."
——
When Sanguinius closed his eyes.
Some illusions from the past that have ended, the present that is happening, and the undetermined future will appear in front of her. Those illusions are so realistic, they are by no means empty and weird dreams, but more like something that transcends time and space.
personal experience.
The first illusion——
She was walking on the streets of the ancient Terra period. The supposedly prosperous city was deserted for some reason. On the dead street, a tall figure appeared in front of her. His face was shrouded in shadow, blurry, and the red of the setting sun
The light stretched the man's tall figure very long...
The second illusion——
She opened her eyes in a laboratory full of advanced technology and spit out a mouthful of turbid liquid full of pungent smell. A devastating storm tore apart the curtain between subspace and the real universe, and the crimson torrent flowed out like tentacles.
Spread out from the cracks. Four supreme figures appeared in front of them. They burst out with greedy grunts because of their joy, and their gazes like poisonous snakes entangled around the girl's white and flawless body. They could not refuse, could not avoid, four gifts.
A blessing—or a curse—melted into the girl's soul, tarnishing the Emperor's greatest work.

The third illusion——
She was lying on the cold deck. The wings that had once been enough to carry her across the storm and the sea of stars hung weakly on the ground. The snow-white feathers were stained with sticky blood and smoky black marks. The warm blood came from the torn guts.
The sores on her body were gurgling out, and some kind of dark and cold power was pouring into her body. Her father and brothers left her, leaving only countless blasphemous corpses crawling up from the ground and heading towards the body inside her.
He worshiped some kind of terrifying existence that was born. Billions of decaying sounds blasted in his ears at the same time—the Lord of Darkness!
The fourth and final illusion——
She sits on the throne of Holy Terra, a mask forged from eagle gold covering her face. Her god-like brothers kneel at her feet, the Custodes, the Astartes Space Marines, the mechanical servants, the mortals.
People fell to their knees like a tide. From the Palace of Terra to the solar system, from the solar system to the entire galaxy, countless people were calling the name of the Emperor... Her brothers and heirs were very close to her, within reach.
But when she actually stretched out her hand, it was far, far away, as if there was an entire Milky Way distance in between.
"Angel."
The gentle call awakened her from the endless fog.
Sanguinius opened his eyes and saw the concerned face of huntress O'Kelly.
"Messiah [Note 1], why do you cry."
[Note 1: Messiah is the honorific title given to angels by the Baal pure-blood tribe. After the long night, when the leader or priest of the pure-blood tribe accepts the canonization, he will be anointed with oil on his head and is called the Messiah.
This concept was then combined with Baal's local belief in angels. In the ancient legends of pure-blood tribes, an angel "Messiah" will descend in the red desert, lead the pure-blood people scattered there, and end the long night.
The long chaos that followed.]
