Chapter 368: Clearing the Battlefield
After Falke left his blood-colored palace, his gaze became unusually sinister. He arrived at the altar where blood-food had been prepared; two blood-food, fair-skinned but with vacant eyes, sat there blankly.
"Tsk, these blood-food are not interesting to enjoy at all. As expected, mass-produced blood-food is not as delicious as wild blood-food."
The succubus following behind Falke spoke at this moment.
"However, the King has now forbidden us from consuming first-generation blood-food, to give the first-generation blood-food some time to reproduce. The second-generation blood-food has been improved by us to a certain extent; not only has the production quantity increased significantly, but the production cycle has also become much shorter."
"It is just that the price is that the blood-food produced is not as delicious as that produced by the first-generation blood-food."
Falke did not make any excessive demands; after all, the most important thing now was to repair his own soul.
After devouring the two blood-food completely, Falke walked back to his room and said to the succubus following him.
"From now on, just send the blood-food to me every day. For the days to come, I am going to restore my strength."
"As you command, Lord Falke."
Falke floated in mid-air inside his room and began to attempt to repair his soul.
Falke checked the current state of his soul and muttered in a low tone.
"That soul fragment I sent out has completely vanished. It seems it will take a very long time to repair my own soul."
Hao Zhendi Fuhua Chao.
A massive Insect Tide was fleeing toward the rear, taking the controlling insects of the Hatchery with them, while leaving behind a portion of the swift insect tide to intercept those crazed Humans.
But these swift insects could not stop the advance of the three Grey Knights at all, and with the Death Korps of Krieg following along to charge, these swift insect tides were torn apart as easily as if they were made of paper.
Arriving before the Zerg Hatchery, Fannidike cast another area-of-effect psychic spell toward the retreating insect tide in the distance, harvesting many more Alien lives.
"Destroy this Alien Nest; our Task is complete. Those Aliens will sooner or later pay the price for provoking the Emperor."
Fannidike gripped the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd with his right hand, and a muffled voice emanated from within his sharp-angled helmet.
"This is only natural, my brother."
Just as the few Grey Knights were chatting, the Death Korps of Krieg had already dispatched Krieg engineers into the Hatchery to begin setting up the Explosive Device, preparing to destroy this Alien Hatchery.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Following a series of explosions from within the tall Hatchery, chunks of flesh splattered everywhere.
Fannidike put away the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd in his hand, looked at the Hatchery demolished by the Krieg engineers, and said to the two Grey Knights behind him.
"These Aliens have been eliminated; the rest of the work can be left to them."
As he spoke, he pointed to the Krieg soldiers who were finishing off the remaining Zerg corpses.
"Of course, shall we return to that previous camp to await the Emperor's will?"
"Hmm, that Cadian Lieutenant, the Emperor seemed to have given him some instructions before leaving; let's go ask him."
At this moment, the Krieg Commissar walked slowly to the front of the three Grey Knights, saluted them, and said.
"Respected Astartes, according to the report from that Cadian Lieutenant at the rear position who received the Emperor's will, we will begin our return once we confirm that no Aliens are alive here."
At the same time, the Cadian Lieutenant was also leading his soldiers to clean up the battlefield.
"Troops! Every Alien that still has a body must be checked carefully to ensure the Alien is dead."
Some Human Alliance soldiers, after going through this battle, said to the Cadian soldiers beside them.
"Brother, how do you check that these Zerg are dead?"
The Cadian soldier turned his head to look at this Human Alliance soldier, wiped the dust off his face, and said with a smile.
"Finish them all with one shot, then destroy the corpses collectively. You haven't done this before?"
"Heh, haha, well, we really haven't done that."
This Human Alliance soldier awkwardly stabbed the corpse of a swift insect in front of him and did not continue the topic.
They had never imagined that one day they would be able to defeat the arrogant Zerg, and in a head-on confrontation at that.
Previously, it was mainly defensive, and the corpses on the battlefield were always taken away by those Zerg.
Just as the two were talking, not far ahead, a Zerg that was only half a body seemed not to be dead yet; just as it was about to attack a Catachan tough guy approaching it, its head was blown apart by a shot from this Catachan tough guy.
This Catachan tough guy spat out a mouthful of saliva and shouted in a rough voice.
"Pah! Damn it, trying to sneak attack me? I really &*&*&..."
"Catachans still have such a way with words. Goodness, the stench emitted by these Alien corpses is truly foul!"
Seeing that Catachan tough guy spewing profanities, an Attilan warrior riding his warhorse said to his comrade beside him.
"Hmm, but they do have the capital to say so."
The Human Alliance soldier not far away heard the conversation between these two Attilan warriors and couldn't help but roll his eyes, complaining in his heart.
So you can smell the stench? Can't you smell the odor on yourselves? Isn't the smell on you just as bad as what those Zerg emit?
Just as the troops were cleaning up the battlefield, the Hatchery in the distance vanished amidst a series of explosions, leaving only the dust and black smoke produced by the blast.
"The Hatchery was destroyed?"
"My god, so fast?"
Seeing the ignorant look of this group of Human Alliance soldiers, the Cadian soldier couldn't help but speak up.
"With the Emperor's Angels, isn't victory a matter of course?"
"The Emperor's Angels?"
Seeing that this group of Human Alliance soldiers did not know about the Angels, the Cadian soldier could only look around before whispering an explanation to the Human Alliance soldier beside him.
"They are those three Astartes wearing silver-white Power Armor; they are the Emperor's Angels of Death, loyal to the Emperor, delivering death to the Heretic."
This Human Alliance soldier was confused and spoke hesitantly.
"It's hard to associate them with Angels."
"In any case, remember this: those Angels appearing on the battlefield will lead us to victory! Although I haven't heard of these Angels either, just believing in the Emperor is the right thing to do."
This Human Alliance soldier nodded thoughtfully, looking at these strange soldiers around him, and his worship for Chief Yingzhou in his heart became even greater than before.
As expected, Chief Yingzhou's strength is very high!
Just as these soldiers were clearing the battlefield, the three Grey Knights who had gone to destroy the Hatchery and the Death Korps of Krieg also returned to the 3rd Position.
Fannidike brought his two brothers to find the Cadian Lieutenant and spoke.
"Before the Emperor left, did he leave any instructions for us?"
"Respected Astartes, the Emperor truly did not leave any instructions for you before he left."
