$989, Chief of the Gorgons: Ferrus Malus (VII)

Chapter 979: Head of the Gorgons: Ferrus Malus (VII)

[Even if your arrival successfully changed Ferrus's fate of being beheaded by Fulgrim on the spot and becoming the headless Ferrus. ]

[But with your three legions facing eight traitor legions, even if the Emperor himself were here, you might not be able to win the final victory in this battle. ]

[Now, there are less than 50,000 Astartes left out of the 90,000 Salamanders, less than 40,000 Raven Guards left out of the 80,000 Raven Guards, and even only five of the ten elite veteran companies brought by Ferrus, and almost all of them are injured. ]

[Squeak, squeak, squeak——]

[You once again released the Shadow Crow Storm towards the surrounding Iron Warriors formations, successfully covering Ferrus and the elite companies of the Iron Hands to break through the encirclement. ]

[You and Ferrus had a very brief exchange, and you decided that you could not continue to consume the traitor legions here. ]

[Otherwise, the traitor legions can kill your legions even if they rely on the number of Astartes. ]

[You and Ferrus lead the way in front, leading the elite company of the Iron Hands to launch a battle charge towards the battlefield of Corax and Vulkan. ]

[At the same time, Fulgrim, who was engaged in a fierce battle with Vulkan, was pierced through the back by the shadow claw from Corax, and even directly lifted the opponent into the air! ]

[Ferrus, who has the deepest friendship with Fulgrim, may show mercy to the opponent. ]

[But Corax and Vulkan, who have been instructed by you separately, have already become as hard as steel. They decided to eliminate this traitor who would kill their brothers on the spot! ]

[Buzz buzz buzz——]

[However, at this time, before Corax's shadow claw and Vulkan's Dawnbringer hammer fell heavily. ]

[Fulgrim's whole body was still in mid-air, and a large amount of blood was gushing out from his mouth and nose. His eyes, which were full of relief, suddenly changed in an extremely strange way. ]

[On his beautiful face, a cold and sarcastic smile seemed to appear. The sword that had been hanging down was raised again, and it suddenly crossed Vulcan's throat like lightning! ]

["Vulcan--" Corax suddenly let out a deafening roar with his eyes wide open. ]

[The large amount of shadow power that you had injected into the opponent's body in advance seemed to have completely stimulated the hidden power. ]

[Corax's huge body suddenly performed a shadow step that was almost like teleportation. ]

[When he appeared behind Fulgrim, the shadow claws with wisps of dark shadows between his hands had already penetrated the opponent's vital head! 】

【Buzz buzz buzz——】

【At this moment, countless chaotic psychic energies appeared out of thin air and completely enveloped Fulgrim's agile body, causing him to enter a vague teleportation state! 】

【"Fulgrim——" Seeing that the opponent was about to leave the chaotic battlefield, the roars from you and Corax resounded all around. 】

【From a thousand meters away, you suddenly swung the Blood Scythe tightly held in your palm like a throwing weapon! 】

【And Corax, who was in mid-air, had to speed up the swing of the Shadow Claw, trying to save Fulgrim's life! 】

【But when the opponent completely disappeared in front of you, only a bloody strong arm and half of a neatly broken calf were successfully intercepted by you! 】

【Bang——】

【Corax's huge body fell heavily on the black sand. He once again performed the Shadow Step and came directly to Vulkan, who was kneeling on one knee. ]

[Just a dozen seconds later, you and Ferrus drove the power armor and rushed to the vicinity of the two people. ]

[Fortunately, Vulkan was fatally injured by the piercing sword. ]

[But he survived successfully with his physical recovery ability far stronger than other Primarch brothers. ]

[Now the gene Primarchs of the Traitor Legion on Isstvan V have temporarily escaped from the battlefield, but the crazy offensive of the eight Traitor Legions has no intention of stopping. ]

[Even with the teleportation and evacuation of important figures, the orbital bombardment from above your heads once again descended on the scorched earth surface. ]

[Due to the heavy casualties of countless think tank brothers, you can no longer use the super-large-scale shadow curtain defense method you had before. If you can't come up with a solution as soon as possible, the casualties of countless descendants will become more and more terrifying. ]

[Amid the flames of war, you briefly discussed with the other three Primarch brothers. ]

[You decide to lead the remaining Astartes forces to break out of the traitor legion's encirclement immediately, and wait for reinforcements from the Empire in the form of guerrilla warfare on Isstvan V. ]

[Whether it is the main force of the Iron Hands or the missing Imperial Fists fleet, as long as one of the two sides reaches Isstvan V. ]

[This death trap battle designed by Horus himself will bring precious hope of survival! ]

[But before that, you cannot confirm how many Astartes heirs can successfully survive. ]

[Boom——]

【Under the call of the four of you, the countless wounded Salamanders Astartes and Raven Guard Astartes successfully formed layers of spearhead formations, and the only remaining Iron Hands elite company also became the rear guard team to support the main force. 】

【The next moment, you, Ferrus, Corax and Vulkan desperately drove the power armor towards the dense encirclement of the traitor legions and launched the first offensive charge. 】

【You must use the combat power of the Primarch far beyond that of ordinary Astartes. 】

【Only by killing a gap in the encirclement of countless traitor legions can you open a real way out for the countless Astartes descendants behind you! 】

【"Flesh and blood are weak--" This is the roar from the elite veterans of the Iron Hands. 】

【They seem to have made up their minds to snipe the pursuers at the rear of the main force at the cost of annihilation. 】

【"Bathed in the flames of war, forged in the anvil--" This is the roar of countless Salamander Astartes. 】

【As the largest number of Astartes in the main force, with the strongest defense and endurance, they are destined to become the tragic victims of this breakout battle. 】

【"Victory or death--" A large number of Raven Guard Astartes seem to gradually rise with wisps of shadow power. 】

【They will do their best to kill every traitor in the Traitor Legion at the cost of their own lives. 】

【Also for their gene father Corax, and the three of you who fought side by side to break through the siege! 】

【"For the Emperor--" Ferrus, Corax and Vulkan couldn't help but let out a deafening war cry and rushed into the dense defense array composed of Iron Warriors, Night Lords, Death Guard and Emperor's Children. 】

【And the Blood Scythe you held tightly in your palm swept across the complex battle formations of World Eaters, Alpha Legion, Sons of Horus, and Word Bearers. 】

【At the same time, your extremely low roar quickly reached the ears of every loyalist and heretic traitor. 】

【"For all mankind——"】
