Chapter 621, Loyalty or destruction!
Chapter 621, Loyalty or destruction!
Wang Mengsong's offensive instantly caused great trouble to Delaroche.
This sage, whose body had been transformed to be extremely good at fighting, had personally killed more than ten Space Marines in the previous hunting operation. In his opinion, the strength level of Space Marines seemed to be just so-so, and not as exaggerated as the legends said.
Of course he knew it was normal.
No matter how powerful the Space Marines are, look at their power armor, which only costs 50,000 tax coins per set? 100,000 tax coins per set?
What’s amazing is the people inside.
But no matter how valuable that person is, how much can the increase be?
As for him, the full set of equipment he was wearing, which was made using new technology developed from the Zerg aliens, cost 30 million tax coins.
This is just the construction cost, not including the cost of the research and development process.
Research and development is more expensive than manufacturing.
What's more, even if this technology is produced, it is not a transformation that can be performed on everyone. Only a sage like him has enough ability to master this transformation technology.
With such a huge gap, isn't it natural that he can crush ordinary Space Marines?
The so-called demigods were just religious concepts that gave the Space Marines some special characteristics. Their superhuman bodies were indeed powerful and could maximize the value of their power armor, but they could not compete with the Sage-level full-body transformation that was a hundred times more valuable.
But the top space marines are excluded.
Delaroche felt tremendous pressure.
Even at the beginning, I suffered losses.
Wang Mengsong wanted to kill him directly with a sneak attack. So, he went all out when he attacked. The weapon in his hand had been changed to a phase sword.
Originally, he was of course not qualified to use this top-notch weapon that the Alliance had not yet mass-produced. There were only a few in the entire regiment. The one he was using now was the sword that Eric gave him, just to increase his chances of winning.
The phase sword is still top-notch. Without the cooperation of this top-notch weapon, even a champion swordsman would find it difficult to cut off Delaroche's pair of limbs in one move.
After suffering a loss at the beginning, De La Roche felt it was difficult to resist under the sudden and violent attack.
He claimed to be a sage who specialized in combat. When transforming himself, he did not do what other sages did, such as trying to make himself bigger, stronger, or more powerful. Instead, he focused on flexibility, skill, and strength, while maintaining a roughly human-sized form.
But actually?
He was ultimately a sage of the Mechanicum, a civilian and scientific researcher. His so-called training was just training, and he lacked the experience of fighting on the front line of the battlefield.
Relying on the advantages of powerful and expensive equipment, he seemed to be invincible in the few battles in the past. He even believed that he was a master of combat.
But when he really faced the champion swordsman among the previous Space Marines in a life-and-death battle for the first time, he felt what terror was.
Objectively speaking, Wang Mengsong's various physical function attributes are not as good as Delaroche's.
A champion-level Space Marine, even though he still has the same equipment, his physical strength has far surpassed that of an ordinary Space Marine.
However, it still cannot compare with Delaroche's outfit in terms of hard indicators.
Whether in terms of strength level, speed, or flexibility, he is theoretically a level higher than Wang Mengsong.
However, the reason why champion swordsmen are called champions is that their experience, technical and tactical swordsmanship levels are even more overwhelming.
However, in terms of actual combat skills and combat experience, Delaroche is far inferior to even an ordinary Space Marine.
With all his skills and physical functions, he could only display less than 30% of his abilities when facing a champion like Wang Mengsong.
He fought with great frustration, and even several times he fought in a helpless and furious manner, trying to exchange injuries for his life, were easily resolved by Wang Mengsong.
After being stabbed several times and the self-healing of the Void Electronic Tendon began to fail, he finally calmed down.
He began to try to escape.
But every time, he was intercepted by Wang Mengsong. He looked around anxiously, hoping that his powerful and luxurious entourage could provide some help.
But it’s not possible.
Logically speaking, they should be able to crush the remaining nine Space Marine followers in terms of combat power. They do have an advantage now, but it is far from being able to completely defeat the opponent and help him.
The soldiers of New World Torch who participated in this operation were all carefully selected.
Although the proportion of them who trained company champions was more than five times lower than that of Phoenix, but out of 500 people, they could still gather ten company champions.
Although they are not as good as Wang Mengsong, they are by no means weak.
Did De La Roche still expect others to help him? Impossible. There was even a Torch Warrior who was very skilled and brave. In the interval between the battles, he suddenly shot him, not afraid of accidentally injuring Wang Mengsong in the ultra-high-speed battle.
He did not hurt anyone by mistake. Instead, he coordinated with Wang Mengsong's attack accurately, causing Delaroche's body to pause, creating a good opportunity for the champion swordsman, who stabbed the phase sword into Delaroche's chest.
Delaroche stepped back quickly, the sword falling out of his body.
This was not a fatal injury to him, as the biological tissue formed by the technology developed from the Void Zerg could quickly repair the damage in his body.
In a short while, he will be back to health.
However, at this moment, a sword suddenly came from behind him.
That's Eric arriving!
More Space Marines were closing in from behind, but the Second Captain of the Chapter could not wait any longer, and rushed over as soon as he received the news.
He possesses considerable strength among the company champions, enough to play a significant role in this battle!
He was hit by several swords again. Although the power sword was not as powerful as the phase sword, he finally managed to force Eric to retreat slightly by inflicting damage, but Wang Mengsong arrived soon.
Under siege, Delaroche seemed increasingly unable to resist.
In the end, his body, which could repair itself quickly, could no longer be put together after being chopped into countless pieces and then burned again by the melta flamethrower.
……
After Delaroche's death, the war did not subside immediately, but at least its intensity dropped sharply.
By this point, most of the hawkish senior officials are dead, and the localists and fence-sitters, who have an absolute advantage in numbers, have a clearer understanding of the situation.
With their efforts, the Crusaders no longer came to die.
The wise men are all dead, what are they still doing here?
Even on Aramita, many of the ruling bishops of the Mechanicus have organized a temporary parliament and contacted Gu Hang, hoping that the Alliance could send an ambassador so that the two sides could have a good talk.
This is a very clear attitude. We can discuss everything and we don't have to fight the war for now.
But unexpectedly, Gu Hang rejected the proposal.
Moreover, the entire alliance's main fleet suddenly pressed forward fiercely.
His voice, through various channels of the Alliance agents and public broadcasts, spread throughout Aramita:
"Unconditionally restore order. I welcome everyone who rises up in battle. You have demonstrated your loyalty to the Empire."
"And for those who still refuse to repent, I will punish them most severely on behalf of the Emperor and the God of All Things!"
"Loyalty, or destruction! Your choice."
