Chapter 841: The Battle of Fenbowent (Part 1)
The sisters' monastery of the Immortal City was full of black flags, and thirteen pure white marble sarcophagus radiating low-temperature condensation were placed side by side in front of the altar. The girls who had learned painting skills were drawing the heroic postures of the sisters who died in the Battle of Fenbowente Mountain in the hall, while the craftsmen and the girls who had learned sculptures began to carve sculptures of the dead with swords on the top of the coffin lid. All the other sisters' formal members knelt on one knee in the hall covered with cold black stone bricks, facing the golden sculpture and the altar, whispering the prayer. The leading sisters held brass incense burners, and the strong smell of incense wrapped them.
Hundreds of burning white candles piled up near the altar. The candlelight illuminated the golden statue from bottom to top, and the face of the statue was shrouded in a shadow - all the sisters who participated in the Battle of Fenbowent could not forget what they had seen. In such a terrifying battle, only thirteen sisters gave their lives, which was an unimaginable victory, but the joy of victory could not dilute the sadness in the hearts of the girls.
The thirteen pure white marble coffins are in the middle of Catherine's remains. It is said that the monarch personally carried her into the coffin and shed a tear.
In the coffin on her left was a human girl, a very young girl. Her cheeks were pale, her long golden hair was neatly combed, and the white linen covered the terrible traces of the wounds on her body. Countless blood-red roses and white lilies surrounded her into an eternal sleep.
Vera, Tatiyana silently recited the name of the dead.
This is my fault, I am too reckless.
With the sound of the chisel chiseling on the marble, she felt her heart be gnawed rhythmically by severe pain, even the pain caused by the wounds stitched together on her abdomen could not be compared with it. Three days had passed since the Battle of Mount Fenbowente, and she still could not forget the situation at that time. But she could not tell everyone outside the sisters' meeting about Vera's situation at that time, and everyone who saw that scene had to bury the secret in her heart.
It was when she was helping the mortal soldiers evacuate on the hillside of Mount Fenbowent and waiting for the assault transport boat to respond. The assault team and the heavy firepower team she was in were separated by a giant humanoid monster with white porcelain, gold and rubies all inlaid with a golden giant sword. When the defense line was broken, the monsters like a tide quickly rushed towards the heavy firepower team. The number of monsters was endless, and even if the heavy firepower team fought hard, they could not stop them from approaching a safe distance.
The enemy relied on the corpse of his companions to block heavy explosive bombs and high-energy plasma, and gradually approached the heavy firepower team.
Many members of the heavy firepower squad had drawn out the combat sword with a long forearm and decided to fight to death. At that time, Tatiyana activated the steel wings and rushed forward with a chainsaw sword. She left the team alone and rushed towards the human-shaped monster's sword-holding arm, trying her best to kill the powerful enemy blocking the road. Even if it was a little blocked, it would give her sisters time to meet. At that time, they were only hundreds of meters away from the defense of the anti-aircraft artillery, but they just couldn't take a few steps forward.
"We are the sword of the monarch, the light of faith in this dark universe!" Seeing that the war could not be restored, the captain of the heavy firepower team shouted, "For my lord! Death bravely, sisters, for Ms. Catherine!"
"For my Lord and the glory of Catherine!" The heavy firepower team responded loudly.
They stopped retreating, held the trigger tightly with their fingers, tilting their anger towards the angels and demons who were only a few steps away from them.
Unexpectedly, the young and shy Vera, who was supposed to be responsible for the flanking, actually passed through the enemy's encirclement and rushed towards the surrounded heavy firepower team. She has never been the best swordsmanship or shooting in this team, but she still rushed towards the enemies, as if her petite body had the courage of steel. She crashed into the flank of the heavy firepower team in her direction. The enemy's white porcelain skin was cut open under the buzzing high-speed chain saw, and the explosive gun powder in her hand
One body after another was broken. She didn't care about her own defense. When she emptied the magazine, she smashed the explosive pistol on the enemy's head like a hammer. She swept past like a violent hurricane, using all the skills she learned in the sisters to the extreme. In less than a minute, Vera arrived from one side of the encirclement net to the other side, cleared all enemies within a safe distance for the Heavy Fire Team, and helped the Assault Team and the Heavy Fire Team cooperated to rush out of the Encirclement.
They successfully waited for the firepower support of the assault transport boat, but Vera was unable to come out of the enemy's siege.
When Tatiyana called Vera's name through the communication channel again, she saw her being stabbed on the tips of several golden spears and raised it. Her helmet was broken, her limbs and chest were penetrated, and blood kept gushing out of the pierced black power armor like a stream, dyeing her white robe into a heavy blood red. The enemy lifted her up like a carnival, as if she was a trophy. Unspeakable fear and anger immediately poured into Tatiyana's heart. She resolutely jumped off the ramp door and rushed to the monsters who killed Vera. "My Lord is watching us, we are his sword, sister." Vera had not completely lost consciousness at that time, and she said to others in the communication channel in a vague voice, "This is what we pursue... death like Ms. Catherine..."
"Don't say stupid things, Vera!"
Even now, Tatiyana can recall the hotness of the monsters' blood when it was poured on her body. She felt her nerves burning like red copper wire, her skin was burned by anger, her eyes were blinded by blood, and the sisters who boarded the assault transport boat with her rushed down and killed with her. Tatiyana felt that the battle seemed to be for a century. When she hugged Vera, who was covered in blood, she even fell into a trance, feeling that she could not recognize who the sister who was with her day and night was.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I feel that Ms. Catherine is by my side, sister." Vera's eyes were wide open, and pink blood bubbles were whispering from her mouth. Her originally beautiful blonde hair was covered with solidified blood, and her blood was mixed with dirty snow and soil. Here are her blood and enemy blood. "I..." Perhaps it was the potion that was automatically injected by the survival system that made her persist until now, but Vera's consciousness had long been blurred. She only recognized Tatyana beside her, "Ms. Catherine..."
"We must evacuate now, Tatyana." I can't remember which sister said at the time, "An enemy with a mark of danger is approaching us."
"Don't talk, I'll take you away now." Tatiyana tried to hold Vera and stood up. However, the dying blonde girl pushed her away from her strength and fell heavily into the mud soaked in blood. Before anyone else could pull her up, Vera groped and held the chainsaw sword that fell beside her.
Then... Tatiyana took a deep breath and silently recalled the incredible scene.
She saw a dazzling white light blooming on Vera's body, and the stains on the power armor and blonde hair disappeared as if they had evaporated. The sisters present raised their arms to cover their eyes because the electronic eye system in their helmets could not block this intensity of light at all. The girls even smelled the burnt smell of overloading electronic components in the helmets.
"I've been with you all the time, Vera."
Although the sound was from Vera, Tatiyana knew that it was not Vera talking. The sound was stacked and it seemed to be coming from an extremely distant place. The originally noisy battlefield seemed to be quiet, and a cheerful voice sounded. Immediately under the dazzling light, all creatures in the outer dimension were washed clean like dirt on the glass when it rained without leaving any trace. Including what was later called [Smart Angel], which could fight against dozens of sisters
The girl's powerful giant monster also turned into steam under the light. When the light gradually weakened, the girls saw a figure with white wings floating on the empty battlefield. Vera's eyes were shining, and there was a dazzling aperture behind her head. The ashes produced by the enemy were burned and the white feathers that appeared out of thin air floated beside her. All the girls bathed in the light felt as if they were in the warm sun, rather than the cold peaks.
"Ms. Catherine?" said some sister in a trembling voice. They recognized this way of speaking.
