Hayes' high-pitched voice stood out among the neighing sounds of the insect swarm, followed by the sizzling sound of hot melt and the dying wail of the Wicked Woman.
Hayes rushed to the side of the downed Space Marine. Without thinking, he stabbed the warrior commander in the abdomen with his chain sword and started the engine. The saw teeth cut through the chitin exoskeleton and the soft tissue covering it without any discrimination.
The beast twitched as it was pierced by the blade, blood spattered on Hayes' armor, and the Space Marines used force to twist the opponent's claws, stab them into its head, and then snatch the body away.
Push away.
He glanced at Hayes, gasped, picked up the tomahawk, and hissed:
"Return to your position, soldier."
Hayes didn't say anything, but quickly returned to the shooting area with the melta team, but in the process he saw two Flesh Tearers dragging a wounded man back from the front line.
The alien's sharp claws tore open the abdomen protected by the power armor, causing the angel to suffer a catastrophic blood loss. In particular, there was a very deep wound on his left chest, which was like a fountain. In addition,
Half of his face was also burned by strong acid, and one eye almost melted in its socket, but even so he was cursing the aliens.
Whether one can survive such an injury, Hayes is not sure, but this is also what makes the Flesh Tearers fear and respect mortals. They are really cruel, but they are also really brave and fearless. Many people have witnessed it with their own eyes.
Having witnessed the fall of angels, it's hard not to feel a sense of respect. Perhaps it was the long and brutal battle that polished each of them into sharp weapons that could easily hurt their enemies and stab their own people.
At least in Hayes's opinion, they were indeed terrifying, but they were also fighting all the time, almost never stopping. Sometimes he was really curious about why the Flesh Tearers had this unique contempt for their enemies, others, and even themselves.
The madness or culture, but they are completely different from the Lamenters who come from the Blood Angels lineage - which one is the real angel?
What is it that shapes them like this, and what is it that creates such huge differences between Space Marines?
With the continued efforts of the Flesh Tearers and the continuous burning of lives of the militiamen, the insect tide began to be pushed out of the gap little by little. At the same time, the huge pump truck of the Mechanicus also drove to the scene, and then the thick pipe stretched out,
It started spitting out a thick, earth-gray substance like vomit, which took only a few seconds to solidify, so it was obvious that the Space Marines could use their jump packs to return to the wall, while the militiamen would be left outside.
Things quickly developed like this. The Flesh Tearers lit their backpacks on fire, jumped onto the parapet one by one, and started shooting downwards, not only shooting at the Tyranids, but also at the militiamen who tried to turn back.
Although he admires the bravery of the Flesh Tearers, Hayes hates this kind of cruelty. The mixture of the two emotions makes people feel mixed, but in any case, this crisis seems to be resolved——
"ah!"
Suddenly, Hayes covered his head in pain, his face twitched, and he screamed subconsciously.
Not only him, but everyone around him also suffered from various painful symptoms, because there was an invisible ripple of screaming cutting their eardrums and nerves.
Two seconds later, this silent scream turned into a substantial roar, but it was not a sound, but the space was roaring. A wave visible to the naked eye instantly tore open the gap being repaired, then passed the pump truck, and then
A certain component in the vehicle's internal mechanical structure was severed. It spun wildly and hit the ramp on the side of the protective wall. The huge momentum lifted its tail off the ground, and then it fell to the ground with a crash, a large number of quick-drying blows.
The material sprayed out like rain, turning the surrounding area into a sticky gray swamp. Some unlucky militiamen were directly covered, and their lives were frozen in the last few seconds of struggle, leaving countless more people on the battlefield.
Hundreds of lifelike statues.
And it’s not just the militiamen who are unlucky. Many people on the parapet have been turned into scattered corpse fragments. Most of the corpses are headless. Sticky scarlet stains can be seen on the ground, including even those of Space Marines.
A corpse wrapped in armor.
Just as Hayes was trying to fight against the screaming in his ears and blurred vision, he heard the sound of bolter fire not far away.
"Evil beast! Evil beast! Find a way to kill it!"
Hayes was still in a trance at this time. A large armored hand pressed down on his shoulder. He turned his head and saw that it was the Flesh Tearer he had saved. The opponent's helmet had been thrown away and his face was crimson.
He became pale, and there were still freshly dried blood stains in the corners of his eyes, nostrils and ears. It was obvious that the other party had been severely shocked.
"Soldiers! Organize firepower!"
As he spoke, he raised his right hand and pointed forward. The first thing Hayes noticed was that there were only three fingers left. When he looked in the direction of the fingers, his whole body suddenly became energetic.
It was a huge four-legged Tyranid monster, with a thick carapace and a brain-like body that replaced muscles. A translucent shadow surrounded the monster's eyeless head, just like the head of some light cephalopods.
Tentacles, those psychic tentacles whipped the surrounding air, making a wet explosion. Under the body of the Tyranid monster, there was a sea of blood. The corpses of the militiamen were almost "liquefied", and all the tissues turned scarlet.
The substances seemed to have been put into a blender and stirred, and only the complete skeletons remained as their last traces in the world.
And this thing is also listed as one of the Tyranid creatures with the highest danger level. It is on the same level as the super giant beasts such as the biological Titans. It was named the Evil Feeder by the Mechanicus. It is an enhanced variant of the fragile brainworm.
Loses the ability to fly but gains more powerful psychic and defensive powers.
When Hayes was studying the characteristics of Tyranid creatures, the list of critically endangered creatures made it very clear that when troops below the regiment level encounter the creature, they should first choose to avoid it, while troops above the regiment level should avoid it if they do not have professional skills.
In the case of weapons, it is not recommended to engage in direct confrontation. The most important thing is to call the legion's Astartes for support.
To make matters worse, the emergence of node creatures caused the Tyranid clusters that had originally shown signs of collapse to reorganize at an incredible speed and attack the gap again.
"Fire! Fire and deal with it!"
Hayes immediately ordered the still confused soldiers around to organize firepower, and even slapped a few soldiers who were still in mental shock. Then the entire shooting position was boiling, but the live ammunition and energy bodies were only protecting the monster's spiritual energy.
A ripple was left on the shield.
The situation began to deteriorate at an extremely fast speed. The insect nest seemed determined to break through here. Amidst the roar of the Thunder Eagle, all the remaining soldiers of the Flesh Tearers rushed here, including their company commander. At the same time, the air force began to arrive one after another.
Join in support, while the heavy artillery fires from a distance, trying to block the hive's subsequent reinforcements - shooting too close may hit the protective wall, creating larger and more gaps.
