Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

Chapter 267 Shadow Blonde and

Instantly.

All the ghost-faced beasts that wanted to surround Artes had become "meat pieces" and collapsed on the ground. The high-temperature claws scorched the gaps to prevent the smelly blood from spraying out.

? ? ?

Artes was a little confused.

It is no stranger to optical camouflage technology. On the contrary, among the special forces under its jurisdiction, the armor worn by elites all have optical camouflage function, which is convenient for infiltration, beheading and other operations.

But the power claw flashing blue light, and the incomprehensible disdainful smile just now, showed that the guy who rescued it was an Astartes...

At this time.

The Astartes took the initiative to remove the effect of the optical camouflage, causing Artes, Vadami, Losko and other elites present, as well as the Covenant Empire troops on the side of the Brutes, to fall into a state of consternation.

Wearing Terminator power armor to reach a height of three meters, the right arm is equipped with slender, sharp kinetic claws, the left arm is equipped with a parallel .75cal caliber bolt gun, black and white painting and a jetpack on the back, and a series of features, All point to the Honor Guard of the Raven Legion—

shadow.

Ignoring the surprised gazes of the aliens, the shadow raised his left arm and swung it towards the front of the street, aiming at the intersection where a group of ghost-faced beasts and gnolls gathered.

"Wow! Wow! Wow!" Parallel guns spit out dazzling fire snakes.

"Puff! Puff!!"

The melodious sound of the body exploding resounded in this area.

At this moment, a fog of blood rose from the intersection.

"Boom! Boom!"

While shooting unscrupulously, this shadow also waved the kinetic claw of his right hand and rushed forward, harvesting the Covenant Empire troops who were confused about the situation.

middle of the street.

A beetle-type tank turned its turret, ready to use high-temperature plasma enough to melt through the outer armor of the hull, trying to stop the god-like shadow.

But where would the shadow give the opponent a chance to fire, and immediately activated the jetpack, allowing the strong force to drive him who weighed more than one ton to make a surprise move.

Leaving the ground, crossing a distance of 100 meters in an arc, and then rushing straight to the tank that couldn't dodge.

"Boom!!"

The shadow used himself as a cannonball, forcibly crushing the entire tank, deforming it until it was scrapped, and the blood of the driver and gunner kept gushing out from the gap.

Immediately afterwards, Shadow jumped off the tank he had crushed.

"Roar!!"

As soon as he landed and stood firmly, there was a ghost-faced beast that was not afraid of death. It didn't want to run for its life, but raised its fisted right hand and attacked the back of his head.

As a result, Shadow turned around with movements that were difficult to detect with the naked eye.

And suddenly raised his interest and stretched out his left hand, spread five fingers, and accurately held the right forearm of the ghost-faced beast, blocking the opponent's attack.

Push a little harder.

"Crack!" With a sound, Shadow's left hand clenched the ghost-faced beast's right forearm.

"Roar...!" The ghost-faced beast couldn't stop yelling in pain.

"Weak and weak alien, where does the courage come from to launch an attack? Let me show you what absolute power is."

As Shadow said, he pierced the power claw of his right hand into the belly of the ghost beast, and then pulled it with his left hand...

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…

"Ah!!"

"Ah! Devil!! It's a devil!!"

The Grunts and Jackals were not considered to have high morale. After witnessing the whole process, they collapsed on the spot and fled in all directions.

"Aw!"

Seeing this, several elites at the side took the opportunity to shoot, quickly ended the lives of these guys, and plundered the plasma pistols, aiming their guns at the shadows one after another.

"Ah."

However, Shadow smiled dismissively, ignored the elites who were full of guard against him, turned around and left here, and continued to carry out the "walking in the courtyard" that was much more skilled than Gabriel and the reserve forces.

at the same time.

In the entire elite residential area, there are more than 300 shadows who removed the optical camouflage, assisted the elites in the massacre, and dealt with the Covenant Empire troops extremely efficiently.

The plaza below the megastructure.

"..."

Artes, Wadami and a group of elites looked at each other, a little confused about the situation on the scene.

These are...humans?

Are there really "killing machines" races in the universe?

The elites were a little confused.

"They are the Astartes."

Losco, who returned from Harvest Star, didn't look surprised, but explained for the two general-level elite veterans:

"According to our knowledge, the Astartes are the most valiant and combative elite among human beings, far surpassing our Sangheili in terms of speed, reaction and strength, as well as the shameless Kirahani (Ghost Beast).

In particular, there are still ten primarchs among humans, and a man who claims to be the chairman of the board...

The prophets are ridiculously ignorant, and until now they have not figured out what kind of race they have provoked. "

The voice just fell.

The battle on the scene has entered a "white heat".

More than 300 shadows rushed to the forefront, together with tens of thousands of lightly armed elites, they dealt with the regular troops of the Covenant Empire.

The result, needless to say, was a unilateral crush.

Although the shadows come from the Raven Guard who are best at sneaking and infiltrating, their weapons and equipment do not belong to the ranks of "lightly equipped".

In addition to power claws, parallel bolt guns and jet packs, the most commonly used weapons of these shadows, there are also 1.0cal bolt machine guns that can be mounted on the arm armor, plasma cannons, melta cannons and flamethrowers.

There are more than a dozen shadow jetpacks, replaced by small missiles and grenade launchers.

I saw a shadow equipped with two grenade launchers standing still, then the mechanical arm moved the left launcher and placed it on the shoulder armor, and aligned the 50mm grenade launchers in 10 rows and 4 columns at the elevation angle of the covenant at the end of the street. force.

"Tong~Tong~!"

With a clear sound, fifteen "Viper" grenades rushed out one by one, and landed on the obliquely above the covenant troops to actively detonate.

"Boom~! Boom~!"

There was no violent explosion as imagined, but a low-intensity burst, evenly spreading dark green "water mist", covering the entire area at the end of the street.

Then...

"Hey~! Hey~!" The sound of strong acid corroding everything came out.

"Ah! Ah...uh..." There was also a scream of pain from the strong acid eroding into the bones.

The Covenant Empire troops shrouded in "water mist" are "melting" at an extremely fast speed, the flesh and armor "stick" together, and then "melt" into the collapsed metal ground, turning into a cloudy dark green "Sauce mud".

Struggling and screaming in vain.

Beetle-type tanks can't escape the strong acid corrosion, only the well-equipped Brutes escape the hellish streets in panic before the energy shield is about to expire.

However, the 1.0cal caliber bolt bombs pouring in and the meteor-like plasma cannonballs made the Brutes only remember the luck of escaping from the strong acid corrosion area before dying.

The so-called "Viper" grenade, which contains a high concentration of Xenomorph blood inside, is specially designed to deal with enemies who dare to gather in piles.

The elites in the rear, using the weapons they picked up, even though they couldn't communicate with the shadows normally, knew that this group of Astartes, who were beyond mortals, came to help them avoid the fate of being slaughtered.

So while the shadows were in charge of outputting firepower and resisting the attacks of the covenant forces, the elites used their best speed advantage to carry out guerrilla attacks and harassment, and the two sides reached a not-so-tacit cooperation.

"Ow! Ow! Go to hell, shameless beast!!"

Among them, Artes held a gravity hammer that he picked up from nowhere, rushed to the front regardless of his own safety, and even picked out the team commanded by the ghost beast.

This should be regarded as an alternative "guerrilla".

Vadami didn't have time to worry about his old friends, but organized the elites present to cooperate with the shadow as much as possible, and tried to contact the troops and fleet of the elites.

At this time, the city of fraternity has fallen into chaos due to the purge action taken by the three priests.

Taking advantage of the authority granted by the priests, and claiming that the elites are heretics and traitors, the Brutes forcibly seized the command positions and began to take over the troops.

Faced with unfounded charges, many hot-tempered elites naturally would not willingly give their lives to the ghost-faced beasts, but led the grunts and gnolls who were still willing to follow them to fight.

But the covenant is a religious empire after all, with the advance planning and deployment of the three priests, and now they are charged with "traitor" and "heretic"...

No matter how brave the elites are, how influential and deterrent they are, the fact that they are excluded from the Covenant Empire cannot be avoided, and they belong to the real rebels in righteousness.

Outside the City of Fraternity, the United Fleet in charge of escorting also fell into a fierce battle.

The fleet commanded by the elites was under fire suppressed by several times their own, and the incident suddenly caused heavy losses to their side.

After all, "sea warfare" is not like ground warfare.

What's more, the elites are surrounded by groups, unable to play their best guerrilla strategy at all, and occupy an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers and ship specifications, causing them to retreat steadily.

In the end, in order to retain their only naval power, a small number of elite ships, relying on the opportunity of their compatriots' desperate cover to open the jump entrance, entered the fault space and escaped successfully.

Even the colonial galaxies within the sphere of influence of the entire covenant empire, the fleets and troops on the edge of the territory, began to gradually stage a "clearing" link.

It has to be said that the priests used the political chips provided by the war to help the ghost-faced beasts who had long-standing grievances and were equally powerful in battle, and a series of "small" operations, all of which were the means that politicians should have.

only…

At the same time, the middle-level area of ​​the city of fraternity.

This is like a ship corridor that has been enlarged several times. There are three or five ghost-faced beasts patrolling to ensure that there will be no mistakes in this area.

Like the troops responsible for slaughtering the elite, the Brutes on patrol are dressed in novel armor, armed with sophisticated live ammunition and energy weapons, and are not what they used to be in every way.

At this time.

A group of ghost-faced beasts on patrol suddenly turned into "wooden figures" and kept walking forward, but remained motionless in place.

?

Aware of this strangeness, it immediately attracted the attention of the other two patrol groups, and two ghost-faced beasts ran to the side of the same kind to check.

"!"

I saw the grim expressions of the stagnant fellows, as if they were fighting some kind of "thing", or a more appropriate "idea", trying to regain control of their bodies.

? ?

Seeing such a scene, the two free-moving ghost-faced beasts were a little puzzled, but then they saw the "minds" of the same kind.

It is the head brain tissue in the clear sense.

With a few "cracks! Cracks!", the heads of the same kind exploded quickly, blood and milky white tofu-like tissue splashed outward, splashing onto the faces of the two ghost-faced beasts.

! ! !

Seeing the corpse without a head limp on the ground, the two ghost-faced beasts looked around in horror, and yelled "Roar! Roar!" at the top of their lungs, making the entire patrol team heighten their vigilance.

"Crack! Crack!"

But a series of head explosions killed all the three patrol teams in charge of this corridor. Even the murderer was unknown, and fell into endless darkness.

"Tick! Tick!"

The alarm sounded suddenly, and more and more patrol teams rushed to the corridor.

But no matter how many ghost-faced beasts came, none of them died unexpectedly.

"Boom! Boom!"

The sound of the skull cracking was also mixed with low-intensity explosions.

It turned out that it was the ghost-faced beast whose head was preserved. It escaped the strange attack, but it did not escape the attack of the small-caliber penetrating bolt bomb.

The splitting of the body and head made the ghost-faced beasts fall down in a row like huge dominoes.

A group of invisible "ghosts" maintained a very high efficiency of destroying enemies, passed through the corridors and tunnels unimpeded, and went straight to a large room similar to the main control room.

After dealing with the ghost-faced beasts staying here, a bluish-blue light flashed, and the six "ghosts" took the initiative to appear.

They wore hostile environment adaptation suits (HES) that had been upgraded many times, and held small-caliber sniper-type bolt guns, and a special suppressor that was 40 centimeters long was installed at the muzzle.

And the team leader is Nova with the iconic blond ponytail.

At this time, she glanced at the open gate behind her out of the corner of her eye, released her psychic energy and said, "Captain Linmeer, the subsequent operations will be left to you."

talking.

Moore, who was supposed to be secretly executed by the ghost beast, walked into the main control room with more than 30 subordinates showing shock that could not be concealed.

This group of elites couldn't believe that the seemingly thin Nova and the others could burst out with such a powerful strength, especially the spiritual power that the elites could not figure out.

Not long ago.

As soon as the priests launched the purge operation, Nova and five ghost agents, who were in the dark, rescued Moore and them.

Then let Moore act as a guide, all the way to the "heart" of the city of fraternity——

General control room.

In fact, after Harvest Star resumed communication and the company knew that the Retribution had captured two enemy ships, Nova followed Sui Bian's order and rushed to Harvest Star on her flagship Griffin.

after.

She, 23 ghost agents, and more than 300 shadows led by Corax personally sneaked into the cruiser where Moore was.

After fifteen hours of leaping and sailing, they arrived at the sanctuary of the covenant empire, easily avoided the search of the guards of glory, and successfully entered the city of fraternity.

after that.

Before Nova and Corax's secret instigation, the priests "preempted" the purge.

However, this was convenient for them, so the ghosts and shadows that had already been scattered everywhere also took advantage of the chaos to carry out various actions.

So the three priests are indeed very qualified politicians, but they miscalculated how capable the ghost agents and honor guards under Umbrella's command, especially a Primarch.
