From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man - Chapter 505

“Hold on! Hold on! We must wait until all civilians are evacuated!”

Rilano, who was at the front of the front, was directing, and the evacuation of civilians was like a tight string.

When he was arranging his troops and deploying the defense line, the “Big Demon” standing at the other end of the battlefield slowly turned his eyes, his deep eyes staring at Rilano.

“+Hehe – Rilano – I didn’t expect that you would still be so pathetic in this universe – +”

Suddenly, a low and hoarse voice with a strange “charm” burst onto the battlefield, as if penetrating the air and pouring directly into the ears of all living creatures.

These words not only echoed in the sky above the square, but also penetrated into everyone’s consciousness like an invisible shock wave, making their souls tremble.

? !

This immediately disrupted the rhythm of the fierce battle that broke out in the central square, and even the roar of artillery fire seemed to become “distant” and vague.

Putting aside the biological and mechanical weapons of the main universe empire, almost everyone or “things” focused their attention on the source of the sound.

That is, the “big devil” who resembles the original body of the Son of Man.

Completely opposite to the twisted and ferocious chaos creature, the “big devil” has an upper body that is close to that of a human being, and its smooth and exquisite armor glows with a strange light, as if mocking the humbleness and fragility of mortals.

It stood in the center of the square, with its arms folded and a cruel and teasing smile on its lips.

And it is the original body of the Emperor’s Children——

Fulgrim.

But unlike the original Son of Man in the main universe, the Fulgrim in front of him chose to fall into the arms of Chaos, and invisibly abandoned his “godhead” and became a “demon”-like existence.

The most important thing is that the spiritual energy fluctuations of the demon Fulgrim are corroding the entire battlefield like a shadow, making human soldiers feel chilly. Even the bodies of some biological weapons are affected and fall into sluggishness. It seems that It was sensing some indescribable power.

“.”

But Rilano, who unfolded his helmet, did not have any negative impact from the psychic energy released by the opponent, and even his mood was quite stable.

?

After meeting Rilanor and responding to it with a rather calm or rather contemptuous look, the demon Fulgrim actually made it angry.

“+Hahaha – you still despise me?!+”

Its laughter was as harsh as tearing metal, and at the same time it pressed a hand on its chest, making an exaggerated gesture, as if it was really emotionally hurt.

“+Oh, Rilano, you really surprised me! Do you still think that your insignificant will and small body can compete with my existence?!+”

Its voice is full of contempt, but the anger hidden deep inside is like a lurking poisonous snake, making people feel the invisible pressure gradually approaching.

“+Let me guess who gave you this arrogance? Is it the glory of the false emperor? Or is it your pitiful self-esteem?+”

At this time, the demon Fulgrim’s words became cold, and his tone was like an ice blade, trying to pierce Rilanor’s consciousness.

“Oh.”

However, Rilanor still maintained his disdainful look, completely ignoring the anger of the ascended demon Fulgrim in front of him.

Not only was he not emotionally affected by the coercion or psychic energy released by the opponent, but he was surprisingly calm, as if the monster in front of him with the power to destroy the world was just a supporting actor in a farce.

At the same time, Rilanor did not rush to respond, but keenly observed the opponent’s actions, which caused a chain reaction. That is, the offensive of the Emperor’s Children, heretics and chaos creatures was stalled for a moment due to Fulgrim’s sudden intervention. .

At this moment of deadlock, Rilano suddenly had an idea and came up with a bold “good idea.”

He quickly weighed the pros and cons, and the decision in his mind took shape instantly——

Since the fallen Primarch in front of him has focused all his attention on himself, he might as well take advantage of the situation and use himself as a bait to delay as much time as possible to cover the evacuation of civilians and gain every precious point before follow-up support arrives. , every second.

In just a moment, Rilano made his decision.

He did not flinch, but instead stepped forward, and his steady footsteps were particularly clear on the chaotic battlefield.

And his voice was low and cold, but with a sarcasm that struck straight to the soul:

“Arrogance? I’ve never felt this way.”

Rilano’s tone was full of contempt, and there was no fear in his eyes, “I just simply think that you are extremely pathetic.”

Fulgrim was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn’t believe his ears, and then sneered:

“+I’m pathetic?!+”

However, Rilano interrupted the other party mercilessly and continued to stab the “Devil Prince”‘s heart with words:

“Look at your distorted face and body. No, I should say, look at your soul that has long been irredeemably corrupted.”

His tone was suddenly cold, and every word was like a sharp knife piercing the proud shell of the “Demon Prince”.

“Do you think it’s me who’s pathetic as a real human being, or you who are neither human nor ghost-like, only ugly and depraved? Huh? A bastard?!”

? ? ?

These words were like flames hitting his face, completely igniting Fulgrim’s remaining patience.

Rilano said nothing more. At the same time, he closed his helmet and issued a calm and decisive order through the communication channel:

“All Terminators, come forward with me to fight the enemy! The remaining combat units continue to perform their tasks, defend their positions, and cover the evacuation of civilians! No unit shall leave their posts without permission!”

As the order was issued, the elite veterans wearing heavy indomitable Terminator armor immediately responded to Rilano’s call.

Their movements were uniform, like sharp blades that had been polished thousands of times, and they were so tacit that they seemed to be one.

Dong, Dong——!

More than a dozen armored soldiers stepped out in the fire and smoke, and the dark purple armor flashed coldly in the light of the explosion. They were like a steel barrier, and led by Rilano, they marched towards the center of the square.

Different types of Terminator armor are extremely expensive, even “luxury” individual equipment for each company of the legion.

This kind of armor is not only expensive, but also requires complex maintenance and technical support, so it is limited in distribution among the major legions.

Take Logan Sigurd, the captain of the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf Legion, for example. This close friend of Sol Tarvitz is still “waiting in line” for the delivery of the first batch of Iron Cavalry Terminator Armor.

This also means that the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf, which has good combat effectiveness, has not yet owned a Terminator Armor.

However, the 2nd Company of the Sons of Man Legion, the troops under Sol Tarvitz, is undoubtedly the leader in the most advanced and sophisticated equipment in the entire legion.

This is not only because of the important position of the 2nd Company, but also because of Tarvitz’s outstanding ability in strategic deployment and resource integration.

And the flagship of the 2nd Company is an Emperor-class battleship.

In the entire empire, whether in the main universe or other universes, the total number of Emperor-class battleships is extremely rare, with only thirty currently known, but the 2nd Company can monopolize one of them as the command flagship.

It can be seen that the legion has tilted most of its resources on the 2nd Company.

The second assault platoon, the most core and core force of the second company, also enjoys the priority supply of top equipment.

At present, the second assault platoon has been equipped with 60 indomitable terminator armors.

After being debugged and modified by the technical sergeant brothers, its firepower output and battlefield survivability have reached the peak level.

According to the plan of the Corps, if there is no chaos invasion, in about two years, the entire second assault platoon will be expected to be equipped with all terminators, becoming a veritable “steel torrent” that can cope with the most severe and complex battlefield environment.

And by that stage, the core team led by Dr. Catherine Halsey had already mastered the “single-soldier short-distance transmission” technology.

In this way, the second assault platoon will be responsible for tasks such as “raids” and “boarding”, and serve as the sharpest tip of the entire company.

But reality did not give them enough time.

Check out the correct version in the 16-9 book and forum!

The war that broke out in New Argo caused this company, which was highly expected, to suffer a devastating blow.

With the crazy invasion of Chaos creatures and the outflow of the Emperor’s Children with thousands and tens of thousands of years of combat experience, the 2nd Company suffered extremely heavy losses.

More than 70% of the Sons of Man, the Auxiliary Army and the rest of the elite forces fell on the battlefield forever.

They did not wait until that moment in the future, but used their flesh and blood to win precious survival opportunities for the civilians of the Empire.

Such a loss is a disaster that cannot be easily borne for any newly formed legion.

Especially for the 2nd Company, what was lost was not only elite soldiers and advanced equipment, but also the original nearly perfect combat rhythm and gradually improved combat power accumulation.

But.

Despite losing more than half of their strength, Tarvitz and his 2nd Company remained unshakable.

Including Rilano and others, every Son of Man knew very well that true glory does not come from advanced equipment and powerful combat power, but from fearlessness and sacrifice when shouldering the mission of the Empire.

On the other hand, regardless of what Rilano in the Warhammer 40k universe is like, every word and every action spoken to it by the 2nd Assault Platoon Leader of the 2nd Company of the Sons of Man seemed to be a humiliation to it.

The face of the “Demon Prince” flashed with anger and loss of control that was difficult to conceal. That twisted and elegant face was completely shattered by Rilano’s disregard and contempt.

“+Enough!+”

The scream of Rilano was like thunder. It raised one of its four arms high, and the air around it twisted violently. The dazzling psychic flames began to condense in its palm, as if it would devour everything in front of it in the next second.

“+Let me tear off your disguise myself and see whether this indifference is stupidity or despair!+”

As soon as the voice fell, a pink-purple light that seemed soft but full of destructive meaning enveloped it, making its entire “person”.

No, it should be the entire “snake body”, like a demon statue from hell, which could turn into a destructive storm at any time and engulf Rilano and the Terminator behind him.

But even in the face of such a threat, Rilano still did not retreat.

He stood at the forefront of the Terminator team and swung his hand violently, causing the power claws attached to the arm armor to extend.

At the same time, between the sharp claws of the power claws, a dazzling blue “lightning” force field began to jump, and the blazing blue light also set off his resolute body.

Rilano’s eyes were cold, looking at the roaring demon Fulgrim through the helmet screen, and continued to retort:

“Come on, I will tell you through actions what true humanity and glory are.”

“+Human?! Glory?!+”

Fulgrim’s anger seemed to have reached its peak.

After all, Rilanor in “Warhammer 40k” once “mercilessly trampled” its dignity and face. Immediately afterwards, the demon Fulgrim immediately released the stored energy towards the Terminator team led by Rilanor. Long-lasting psychic impact.

Immediately afterwards, it brandished two sharp swords that looked like scimitars and rushed in the direction of Rilano and the others.

Boom—boom—! ! !

A devastating psychic impact suddenly enveloped Rilano and the Terminator.

However, their energy barrier also rose quickly when the impact came, and Tirelano and others offset the fatal blow.

However, before the “halo” generated by psychic energy dissipated, the demon Fulgrim approached Rilanor and swung his sword at an extremely fast speed, intending to stab Rilano directly. Mash or even mince into a paste.

Apparently, it hated Rilano with all its heart.

But come to think of it, Rilanor in “Warhammer 40k” is an “ancient sage”.

During the battle on Istvan III, Rilanor had already entered fearlessness, but was seriously injured again in the duel with the traitors, and watched his loyalist brothers die one by one without being able to do anything.

As a result, Rilanor was trapped aboard Isstvan III for ten thousand years, and during this time, he continued to send out signals in an attempt to lure their Primarch to come.

Finally, three fallen Thousand Sons were attracted by the signal and arrived in front of him.

But Rilanor did not know that the three Thousand Sons had rebelled, but taught them not to forget the glory of being an Astartes and the pride of humanity.

At this time, Fulgrim also “arrived” and laughed at Rilanor’s insignificance and downfall.

However, Rilano detonated the virus bomb under him to make him pay.

Although the Thousand Sons successfully released their psychic energy and blocked the impact of the explosion, and Fulgrim also took the opportunity to drag Rilanor out of the Dreadnought and tried to corrupt him, Rilanor still continued to curse unswervingly. :

“I am the true son of the Emperor! I am Rilanor! In order to kill you, the traitor, with my own hands, I have been waiting here for a million suns, moons and stars!!”

Rilanor’s spirit seemed to have infected one of the Thousand Sons, and killed the two unsuspecting brothers, causing the psychic barrier to fail. At the same time, he released all his psychic powers to contain Fulgrim.

With the successful explosion of the virus bomb, Rilanor and the Thousand Sons of the Thousand Soiled Sons who had “returned from the lost” were completely destroyed.

As for Fulgrim, he was also seriously injured and was unable to return to the physical universe for a short time.

Now–

No matter how powerful and fearless Rilanor of the Children of Men is, he is no match for the “Demon Prince” in a one-on-one situation.

Boom—boom—! ! !

With Fulgrim’s angry blow, the central square suddenly exploded, with rubble splattering and gunpowder smoke filling the air.

But before the aftermath had dissipated, the Emperor’s Children and the Children of Man discovered two “giants” on the central square.
