Chapter 363: An Overwhelming Battle

Cai Xiangliang had originally thought this would be a crushing battle, and although it was indeed so in terms of the result, why was it those two burly men in silver-white armor crushing his side?

Watching those two burly men in silver-white armor easily take away every life wherever they passed each time they swung the weapons in their hands, Cai Xiangliang began to feel fear.

Clearly his side had the advantage in numbers, yet these numerical advantages could not give Cai Xiangliang a shred of security.

"Damn it, how could Yingzhou have such powerful soldiers, and furthermore, they can even use Spiritual Barrier! How could they possibly..."

Seeing those two burly men rapidly closing in on him like two human tanks, Cai Xiangliang was so scared he turned and ran.

Cai Xiangliang's action made Karl and Wu Enda freeze for two seconds, then the two of them also reacted and immediately turned to flee.

"Heretic! Die!"

As soon as Wu Enda turned around, he felt himself locked on by a killing intent, and then felt a pain in his abdomen; he saw his own legs still in a running state, but his perspective had already turned upside down.

Looking up along his legs, he saw that half of his body had already disappeared; Wu Enda wanted to make a sound, but could not even open his mouth, and finally his consciousness sank into a void of darkness, and he stopped moving.

Seeing the state of his good buddy's death, Karl was so scared he knelt directly on the ground, saying with a trembling voice.

"I surrender! I surrender!"

Watching the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd held high not swing down, Karl only felt a hot current gushing out between his legs, his legs went soft, and he sat on the ground unable to get up no matter what.

Seeing that someone who surrendered was not killed, these Noble Private Army soldiers also threw away the weapons in their hands one after another, knelt on the ground and shouted.

"I surrender!"

"Surrender! Don't kill me!"

Cai Xiangliang, who was running at the very front, heard the waves of surrender sounds behind him and was almost so angry he spat out a mouthful of old blood; looking back, those two burly men in silver-white armor were getting closer and closer to him, and finally, unable to overcome the fear in his heart, Cai Xiangliang performed a kneeling slide plus a surrender with raised hands, using all the strength in his body to shout loudly.

"I surrender! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

Seeing that no one was resisting anymore, Taigehe'er stood the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd in front of him and shouted to Karl, who had surrendered first.

"You, keep them under control, I will take you to accept the Emperor's judgment!"

Without a hint of hesitation, Karl immediately replied.

"O... okay!"

Watching this group of Noble Private Army soldiers who had not a shred of fighting spirit, Taigehe'er said disdainfully to Dabeiwenqiao beside him.

"They are like this, and they dare to launch a rebellion?"

"My brother, not everyone has Faith; they have no Faith, so naturally they cannot defeat us who have Faith in the Emperor."

Hearing Dabeiwenqiao's words, Taigehe'er puffed out his chest and nodded in reply.

"Yes, my brother, you are right."

Just as the two were conversing, they discovered that there seemed to be a small armed unit fleeing rapidly in the distance.

"Dabeiwenqiao, I will go and finish off those Heretics."

Beneath Taigehe'er's angular silver-white helmet, a pale blue light flashed, and he lifted the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd in his hand and charged toward that side.

Dabeiwenqiao did not stop him either, only casting his gaze toward these gathered Noble Private Army soldiers; the invisible pressure made these Noble Private Army soldiers feel as if they were being pricked by needles on their backs.

Taigehe'er quickly passed through a street, saw a familiar figure, slowed his pace, and shouted loudly to that unit.

"Troopers, state the Task you are currently executing, and ensure you have not been corrupted by Heretics."

The Cadian Sergeant and Viterian Sergeant saw this and looked at each other with some confusion; finally, the Cadian Sergeant walked forward and respectfully saluted Taigehe'er.

"Respected Astartes lord, we are acting on the Emperor's decree to protect this lord's squad; because a riot by Heretics has occurred within the city, we now need to transfer the Task target to a safe zone."

Taigehe'er looked in the direction the Cadian Sergeant was pointing and saw a middle-aged man with a receding hairline; seeing that these troopers had no abnormalities, Taigehe'er spoke up.

"The Emperor has arrived; you may take the Task target to have an audience with the Emperor and let the Emperor decide."

"The Emperor has arrived! Yes, respected Astartes lord."

Seeing this, the Cadian Sergeant did not refuse and went straight to follow behind Taigehe'er with Jack and his own squad.

The Viterian Sergeant also called back the Catachan tough guys who were outside, and the three squads set off together following Taigehe'er.

Ninth Defense Zone Outer City.

When the nobles rebelled, the workshop where Geerman was located was attacked by Demon Believers; after eliminating the guards who were holding Geerman and the others, Geerman followed other Demon Believers and escaped; facing an unfamiliar environment, Geerman could only act together with these Demon Believers.

It was not until he arrived at the Outer City that Geerman seized an opportunity to leave this group of Demon Believers.

Originally, Geerman intended to go into hiding and slowly search for his family, but after seeing the Herui Gate open, Geerman worried about Marie's safety, so taking advantage of the Demon aura on his body, he searched everywhere for his family in the areas being slaughtered by Demons.

However, without a specific location, how difficult it was to find his family; soon Geerman saw a group of Human Alliance soldiers wearing bright uniforms and Individual Combat Armor coming to clear out the Demons in his area.

Fearing that the Demon aura on his body would be exposed, Geerman hurriedly hid, while those Human Alliance soldiers and those soldiers in bright uniforms engaged in a bloody battle with the Demons.

Geerman waited until the sounds of fighting outside ended before emerging from a dilapidated residential building; at this time, compared to before he hid, the street was full of human severed limbs and arms, but Geerman also felt that the Demons in this area had decreased somewhat; however, that Herui Gate had not yet closed, and endless Demons were crazily pouring out, making Geerman feel that the resistance of those soldiers seemed to have little significance.

"Forget it, I must find Marie and the others first!"

Just as Geerman entered another area and passed by a piece of glass, he discovered that his body had already begun to undergo changes; his originally rough hands had turned into a pair of Claws, his bones had also become somewhat deformed, his teeth had begun to fall out and new sharp fangs had grown, and even a pair of horns had grown on the top of his head, and his figure had also become much taller.

Geerman was frightened by this scene before his eyes; he checked his appearance in disbelief, saw the Demon in the glass making the same movements as him, and screamed in terror.

"Why! Why have I become this appearance!"

Just as Geerman was frightened by the changes in his appearance, a squad of more than twenty people appeared in the distance; they were between 2.1 and 2.3 meters tall, wore Armor much larger than the Human Alliance Individual Combat Armor, and held a Chainsword and a Bolter in their hands.

"Charlie, you take a few brothers to finish it off, we will cover you at any time, prepare for battle!"
