The second company commander narrowed his eyes and stared at the distance. He vaguely saw a red line, which was expanding, and houses and buildings were constantly being swallowed up.
Then the red line turned into a red bar, and finally turned into a blood wave...
And the existence that rushed towards him was finally getting closer and closer until Argesta could clearly see what kind of terrifying existence was under the exciting blood waves.
It was not waves at all, but a whole tumbling blood-colored fog. The huge ground was like a sandstorm, in which hundreds of twisted shapes were composed of without actual physical forms. Various tooth-smiling skeleton faces and creepy claws were viewed from this huge blood tide, screaming and howling angrily.
With their arrival, the air became cold and bone-black, and the white frost condensed by water vapor directly condensed along the ground and buildings, making a creaking sound. All the firepower shot towards them was quietly swallowed by the red fog.
When they approached the buildings on both sides of the road, the soldiers garrisoned inside jumped into the window and fled, but many people were caught by their sharp claws in the air, then tore them apart, shattered, and turned into a part of the blood mist...
Argesta's whole body was cold. He had not fought with space undead, but he had never seen space undead in this form. What exactly were they?
With strong anxiety, he immediately led the company to run in that direction. The defense army had already established positions on the edge of the square. The soldiers squatted nervously behind the bunker, looking at the approaching blood tide.
"Sousa's children! Repel these abominable aliens! Let them know that they are in the wrong place!"
The voice of the Space Marine echoed on the position, giving many people courage, but Argesta did not notice some malicious and malicious gazes, nor did he hear the faint screams and gunshots in the Senate.
"Run! Run! They are here!"
There were also civilians running away desperately, but the aliens were very fast and kept catching the slowest from behind.
A woman holding the baby was running while crying, but her skirt hindered her steps, and the cold claws behind her were about to touch the back of her neck.
"Emperor! Astars! Save my children!"
At the moment when she was about to be torn apart, a big hand grabbed her clothes, threw her back, and roared.
"Ugly alien hybrid!"
The huge sickle roared down, and with an arc of decomposition force field, slashed on the skinned ghost, cutting half of its body away.
The skinned ghost let out an angry roar, and his claws stretched towards the Space Marine's brain like lightning, but the dense bombs hit its brain and body, forcing it to return to phase mode, dragging its broken body to disappear into the red mist, but Argesta noticed that the other party's red eyes were mixed with hatred.
It will also come, these things are very troublesome, and once they become blurred, they will be almost harmless.
“Retreat to the back of the defense line!”
In order to cover the remaining civilians, Argesta ordered the company to form a temporary defensive cordon.
"Divide into two columns and fire at will!"
The pace of the first batch of aliens was blocked by bombardment. Their metal bodies and the flesh and blood cloaks hanging on them were rolling and blown away in the ashes and mud, dragging pus and pulling out thin filaments in the air.
But Argesta knew very well that this was difficult to cause effective damage, and they were still rushing forward.
But he didn't plan to fight the alien here.
"Alternate cover, retreat!"
Holding a sickle in one hand, Argesta aimed at shooting with a explosive pistol.
"Keep formation!"
As the Space Marines kept retreating, the aliens kept approaching, staring at the living with hatred, but their speed slowed down.
Until Argesta and the others retreated to the defense line.
"Fire! Fire with all your might!"
Then there was a feast of firepower. Tens of thousands of weapons of all sizes were firing wildly towards the blood tide. The artillery behind also began to roar. The huge shells set off a wave of wreckage on the street, destroying nearby buildings at the same time. The blood tide also kept showing gaps in the impact, but it would heal quickly.
Both sides seemed to be trapped in a brief tug-of-war.
Then the blood mist subsided. In just a dozen seconds, they disappeared without a trace, with only ruins filled with gunpowder.
"this..."
Argesta frowned under his helmet, not knowing what the alien was going to do, but he still ordered to be alert and then turned around.
At some point, he suddenly remembered something.
The servants who went to the Senate to perform missions seemed to have no news and no reports were found.
Then he looked at the Senate. The building was surrounded by various sandbags and fortifications. It looked very strong and surrounded by the Sotalan Defense Forces with live ammunition. They looked very dedicated...
Civilians gathered in the square, some praying, some looking for relatives, and some moving things, some wooden boxes...
But for some reason, Argesta always feels something is wrong.
"grown ups."
Suddenly, a weak voice sounded, and he looked down and saw that it was the young woman he had saved before. She hugged the baby in her arms tightly, wrapped it tightly in swaddle clothes, and looked up at him timidly.
"Thank you for saving me and my child. Are you Lord Argesta?"
Argesta put down the weapon in his hand and nodded.
"I am, no thanks. This is our righteousness as the sons of Sosa—"
Suddenly, a white noise came from his helmet, followed by an intermittent cry, and the signal came from Thunder Eagle.
"Company Commander! Just now... News... Shield Guard... Rebellion! Solanta... Presbyterian... There is... Gene Stealing... Be careful!"
"Um!?"
Just as Argesta's eyes widened in surprise, the woman suddenly showed a pale smile and raised the swaddle in her hand high.
"For the Four-Armed Divine Emperor!"
"Oh no!"
Argesta was shocked. He instinctively waved his arm, and the scramble exploded when he smashed the other person's body!
boom------
The close-range explosion instantly lifted Argesta away, his eyepiece shattered, and the power armor on his body emitted a harsh alarm.
He seemed to fall directly from the track, his whole body was burning, and his body, his spirit, he fell, bounced up, fell again, and finally stopped when he hit something, and the whole world was far away from him...
It took him a lot of time to slowly recover from consciousness intermittently, but his limbs were heavy and unable to stand up until a pair of armour wrapped hands helped him up.
"Company Commander! Company Commander! Are you okay!"
The voice of the company's non-commissioned officer Menelle reached his ears, which sounded like a distant echo. Argesta tried hard to open his eyes and saw the world stained with blood...
If he could choose, he believed it must be an illusion.
