Chapter 499, Erso’s death, restoration of the whole territory

Chapter 499, Erso’s death, restoration of the whole territory
The battle between Martins and Erso lasted the longest among the 68 battles in total.

Two giants wearing different Terminator power armors fought desperately with superb swordsmanship.

As time went by, Martins gradually found the key to dealing with Erso.

Don't think about swordsmanship. If there is a gap, you must face it. He must make good use of his equipment advantages.

And he did really well.

He used the 'cheating' tactic again and again. When he suffered a disadvantage in swordsmanship, he would often give up defense and launch a fierce counterattack. It was obvious that you might hit my cavalry with your sword and hurt me, but with my sword, with the unyielding defensive effectiveness, you will definitely be more injured than me.

Erso would definitely not engage in such an exchange and could only return to defense.

But sometimes he couldn't help it.

Or maybe you think you can make money from this exchange.

In fact, after several exchanges, the two of them basically took advantage of each other. You cut a scar on my abdomen, and I give you a hard blow on your arm.

But as fatigue and injuries continued to accumulate, the two men no longer fought as airtight and foolproof as they did at the beginning of the battle. They inevitably began to make mistakes, which further made them more likely to be hit by the opponent during confrontation.

Often, Martins is less injured due to the thickness of his armor; but due to the difference in swordsmanship, he will always receive more attacks than Erso.

Space Marines have two hearts. If one is destroyed, it will cause serious injury, but it will not cause death on the spot. It can be saved later.

After being connected together through the power sword, the two chapter leaders were like two wax statues, motionless.

Even though he had a strong belief, he still did not speak at this time. He just stared nervously at the situation in the arena like everyone else.

There is even a high probability that the two of them will die together in this duel.

Even with Calduso's eyesight, he couldn't tell what the final result would be.

This is of course not sustainable and is a huge burden that will affect recovery from future injuries. But in a desperate moment, there is no need to worry, his body will react like this automatically and instinctively.

The two attacks hit almost simultaneously.

But now, he had the opportunity to follow this crack and strike again. He was absolutely certain that with one strike of the sword, he could kill Martins.

……

Martins could no longer block Erso's sword. He still adopted a similar strategy as before, giving up defense and thrusting the power sword forward with his backhand. The part he chose was the junction between Erso's chest armor and abdomen, which had also suffered a round of blows from him before.

However, before he completely cut off Martins' helmet, a terrifying current suddenly appeared in his body and penetrated his second heart.

Of course it hurts, and it's a serious injury, but as genetically modified super warriors, Space Marines can also be regarded as powerful war machines in their own right. Especially for a top player like Erso, unless he dies completely or suffers an absolutely hopeless objective injury such as a broken limb, his combat effectiveness will hardly be affected.

The soldiers from both battle groups who were watching became even more nervous. They could tell that the duel was coming to an end and the outcome was about to be decided. With both sides making more mistakes, the probability of winning or losing with the next sword is getting bigger and bigger.

"Who won?" Calduso couldn't help but asked Pastor Rizzo next to him.

His power armor was punctured.

And this moment has finally come.

At this moment, a power sword was embedded in Martins' head, cutting half of it in; another power sword pierced Erso's abdomen, and it was more than half in.

Under his heavy blow, the crack suddenly widened. Although he felt a sense of sluggishness, the sword edge continued to slash downward. Until he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.

Between being stabbed alone and having Martins' head chopped off, he still made a choice.

The moment of waiting seemed very long at this moment.

Erso's body lost support and fell backwards. The heavy Terminator power armor smashed large amounts of dust on the ground.

Both of them were scarred after this fight, and it was hard to tell who was in worse condition.

The two people who were still at last made some movement.

The helmet is hard enough, and maybe Martins' skull is hard enough too.

Their bodies were frozen.

Erso's sword clearly hit Martins' head, and it accurately stuck in the crack that had existed before.

Erso once again found an opportunity through his exquisite swordsmanship. And this opportunity is better than every time before. Under his mobilization, the door of Martins opened wide, and his sword went straight towards Martins' head.

He had touched Martins' head before. However, the sword was a little crooked, and Martins reacted quickly. He failed to end the battle, but only made a crack on the helmet of Martins' cavalry.

Martins slowly pulled out the power sword that was thrust into Erso's body.

Moreover, Martins's method was just as he expected in the worst case scenario, diagonally upward, piercing his heart.

On the one hand, it is a bit far, but the most important thing is that the battle between these two people was too fierce. The difference at the last moment was too subtle. No matter who wins or loses, who lives or dies, it is all possible.

In order to do this, Martins also tried his best to lean forward, with his head against the edge of Erso's sword, so that he could stab upward diagonally with the sword.

But this time, Erso did not choose to return to defense.

Even if one heart is lost, the other one will beat more vigorously, giving him a power that is no less than at his peak.

Even if Martins's knife might stab up his abdomen and into his heart, he would not hesitate.

Even Pastor Rizzo was frowning at this time. What Calduso couldn't see, he couldn't see either.

This of course made it easier for Erso to slash with his sword, but the scary thing for him was that he didn't seem to have completely cut through the helmet, and his power sword seemed to be stuck.

But at the same time, Erso's sword finally cut into the entire helmet.

He continued to use force to try to break through completely. Even if his body was pierced, or even a heart was pierced, it did not affect his strength output.

Martins staggered back a few steps, the power sword still embedded in his helmet. He let go and put down his sword, then grabbed Erso's sword, pulled it out, and then took off his helmet.

A ferocious blood mark was on his face, cutting open his left brow bone from the top of his forehead, smashing out one of his eyes, and tearing open the entire left side of his face...

Erso was really close to slicing Martins' head open.

But in the end, it was Martins who survived.

After the silence, there were the joyous shouts of the phoenixes.

In sharp contrast, the angry flames on the opposite side are as quiet as a library.

Under the cheers of the battle brothers, Martins raised his broken helmet high, not caring about the blood on his face, and raised his arms and shouted!
……

The duel between Martins and Erso was also the last duel of the entire chapter. They haven't even finished a hundred games yet, let alone Wrath Flame to win a hundred games.

So far, they have only won 11 games in total.

For these 11 victories, the Wrathful Flames paid the sacrifices of their Chapter Master, First Captain, Second Captain, three Chapter Champions, a series of Company Champions and veteran sergeants.

The eleven prisoners who were exchanged fell to their knees. They themselves don't feel that their lives are worth so much.

And the remaining eighty-nine people under the custody of the phoenix have absolutely no desire for the war group to continue fighting.

I can't fight anymore.

The top leaders of the Raging Flame Chapter who were still alive - the third company commander and the chief priest - stood up.

No matter how bitter they felt in their hearts, they could only negotiate with the Phoenix while dragging Kazimierz Erso's body back:
"That's it. The duel is over."

"You want to admit defeat?" The person who spoke on behalf of the Phoenix was Calduso, and beside him stood Pastor Rizzo.

Martins was also seriously injured. After he returned to the military column, he actually fell into a coma. He was dragged behind and the pharmacist was doing emergency rescue.

Facing Carduso's contemptuous question, Adler Paulitos, the third captain who spoke on behalf of the Fury Corps, lowered his head and said, "Yes, we admit defeat. You are the winner."

"There are still 89 prisoners. According to regulations, they will not be released."

Abandon your comrades.

Even if Paulitos stood up and admitted defeat, all the consequences had been thought of and accepted, but when he had to say it himself, he still felt as uncomfortable as a knife.

He was even thinking, why wasn't he the one who ended up in the previous duel?
He would rather die in the duel than suffer such humiliation.

However, the humiliation had already come.

When they only won 68 out of 11 games, when their chapter leader died in battle, and when they continued to fight and feared that all people would die here without even being able to win games, Fury Flame's honor had been completely lost.

The humiliation will surely fall on the heads of the Raging Flames, and will become 'famous' throughout the universe with this duel.

Paulitos really would rather die.

But no.

The war group must continue to exist, and it takes more courage to live than to die.

He could only take a deep breath and said, "I'll let you do it."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Before the Silent Furies boarded the ship leaving the surface, they heard gunshots.

As if on purpose, distant gunfire sounded one after another.

No one wanted to count, but every angry Space Marine clearly heard exactly 89 gunshots in the distance.

At the moment before boarding the spacecraft, as the last person to board the ship, Paulitos couldn't help but looked back.

In fact, it is too far away, even with the superhuman vision of a space warrior, it is difficult to see clearly.

But the places where the 68 battle group cores shed blood and the execution of 89 Raging Flame prisoners seemed to be displayed before his eyes and deeply engraved in his heart.

……

The backbone of the Raging Flame Chapter was broken.

Perhaps, with the perseverance of the Space Marines, they can recover from such a blow in the future.

But at least not now.

They were like bereaved dogs, hurriedly escaping from the Dragon Eagle Star Territory without staying any longer.

Even Space Marines cannot avoid the effects of having their morale destroyed.

They tried to take away all the naval ships under their control, but they were not the only ones whose morale collapsed.

The result of this duel spread quickly, and many ship commanders who originally followed the wrathful flames also murmured in their hearts: Is it really a good thing to follow such wrathful flames?

The direct fleet brought by the Raging Flame Chapter, that is, their Chapter Fleet, does not have this problem. Although morale is low, they are all our own people after all, and Fury Flame can still take them away.

However, in the Dragon Eagle Star Territory, many of the ships that originally stood with them were not their direct descendants. More than half of the ships are from the Imperial Navy.

Among them, the Yunluo Fleet is the main force. In addition, during the previous Iron Teeth War, some support ships mobilized by the Eastern Universe Government from all over the Universe have basically fallen under the command of the Raging Flames. .

When Nu Yan was about to evacuate, they had no obligation to follow Nu Yan. After this duel, they didn't want to leave anymore.

Many ships "fall behind" when they are withdrawing; especially before the jump points of some astral tunnels, some ships seem to have turned on their jump engines, but after the jump, there are always a few One or more dozen ships stayed in place, as if the jump engine was broken.

The Alliance Naval Command Center, which accompanied them from a distance, successfully 'incorporated' these ships.

It's not a complete integration, that would be against the rules. These ships all have their own fleet sequence.

However, there is no problem for Yelicia to order these ships to temporarily obey the command in the name of the Imperial Navy Admiral - which she is now.

Until the Raging Flames left the Dragon Eagle Star Territory, they were left with only the direct fleet they brought into the Dragon Eagle Star Territory.

It was even less than that time. After all, a lot of it was lost in the war.

As for the evacuation plans formulated by the command of the Raging Flames before the duel, all plans failed to keep up with the changes and were abandoned.

They have no time or inclination to carry out plundering raids on various planets.

Even if they enforce this evacuation plan, it is actually unrealistic.

The alliance's main fleet, as well as the ferocious Phoenix, are following behind.

They have thought about this situation before. If the alliance dares to do this, then they will turn around and fight the alliance and start a local conflict. Who is afraid of whom?
But now, even if you admit defeat, why not give it a hammer?

Can you beat it?

The Broken Spine Dog has no intention of fighting, and just wants to leave this nightmare-like star field as soon as possible.

And the alliance has conquered the entire Dragon Eagle Star Territory.
