Chapter 119

~7 min read 1,386 words

The door of the upper hive finally opened!

However, it was a "billion points" different from what many soldiers and civilians imagined. They didn't wait for reinforcements, but Warp demons pouring out like a tide!

It was like opening a gate to release a flood, pouring into the middle hive in one breath!

But... it rained when it poured, the heretics in the lower hive took advantage of the chaos and the collapse of morale of the Planetary Defense Force, completely changed the habit of never fighting at night in the past few days, and poured into the middle hive in one breath!

In just a few minutes, the "Maginot" line carefully constructed by the Planetary Defense Force, Riot Squad, and Law Enforcement Department was easily broken through by the heretics in a few minutes!

The Warp demons pouring out of the upper hive were very cunning, not targeting the front line of the Defense Force, but killing directly towards the rear, the ordinary people who were originally in the protected area!

For a time, screams and wails continued.

Under the ravages and slaughter of demons, countless people died every second, and blood almost converged in every street.

The crowd screamed in horror, one after another as if they had lost control, breaking through the defensive line established by the Law Enforcement Department!

If you look from a high place.

You can clearly see groups of demons, as if driving a flock of sheep, driving the panicked crowd who had lost their minds towards the Defense Force on the front line!

And the Defense Force on the front line?

The situation is equally not optimistic. The heretics broke through the defensive line one after another, plus the Warp demons ravaging in the rear, almost more than 90% of the soldiers completely lost their will to fight!

"Run, Chaos is coming!"

"Run, run!"

"No, don't kill me..."

Crowding, trampling, pushing... countless Defense Force soldiers completely threw the defensive line and tactics behind their heads, only thinking about retreating in their hearts!

Go to a further, safer position!

Looking at the Defense Force that was completely in a mess, like fleeing, being easily slaughtered by heretics, it is hard to imagine... this is a well-trained army that could even suppress heretics in the battle of the previous few days.

Morale is really a very mysterious thing.

Invisible, untouchable, but factually exists.

When morale is high and there is hope, although it is very difficult, the Planetary Defense Force can still hold the position and engage in hand-to-hand combat and slaughter with crazy heretics.

However... in the situation where morale collapsed and hope was completely lost, the Planetary Defense Force would turn their backs to the enemy, push and trample on their companions, and completely evolve into a great escape!

"Everyone hold the position for me, no retreating!"

Commissar Gray tried his best to stabilize the collapsed morale and defensive line, but unfortunately... in the situation of being attacked from front and back, even the Imperial Guard would find it difficult to stabilize their mentality.

Let alone... the Planetary Defense Force?

"Get back! Get back to the defensive line!" Commissar Gray kicked over a soldier who tried to escape, pointed his gun at his head, and roared: "Supervising team, whoever dares to retreat, blow him up immediately!"

However, after the order was issued, no one responded.

Commissar Gray was stunned for a few seconds, then turned around in disbelief, looking behind him... except for Alvin, who was full of bitterness, even the signalman ran away.

It's not just the supervising team, the entire line is in a great retreat!

No one listened to the order at all. Everyone was driven by instinct, without purpose, without direction, like a frightened flock of sheep, fleeing crazily!

"Finished."

Commissar Gray was splitting his eyes, but he was powerless, pulling his gun and looking around, completely not knowing what to do.

In such a situation, no Commissar or commander can gather this group of defeated soldiers again.

Boost morale?

Don't make trouble, from the moment the gate of the upper hive was opened and the Warp demons came out, any bullshit boosting morale completely lost its effect!

"We... lost..."

Commissar Gray was full of bitterness, looking at the completely defeated army, being chased by heretics and demons like pigs, dogs, and livestock, and his eyes were full of disappointment.

If it were the Imperial Guard, there might be a chance to reverse it!

But these Planetary Defense Forces are not the Emperor's warriors. To be precise, they should be the private armed forces of the Planetary Governor. They have neither pure faith nor exquisite technology.

Precisely because of this.

Gray would rack his brains to hide the situation of the upper hive, for fear that it would lead to the collapse of morale, but now... it has no meaning at all. What awaits them is only being slaughtered by Chaos!

And just then, from all directions, came the shouting of "Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Throne!"

It's the Khorne heretics!

"Commissar, we must retreat now!" Alvin looked at the biological map, and the dense red dots on it obviously predicted that they were already surrounded!

"Okay."

Although Commissar Gray was very unwilling, he had no other choice but to retreat now.

The defensive works around the command post were built extremely solidly. Although the heretics occupied a numerical advantage, it was not an easy task to chew this hard bone in a short time.

And this, just happened to win key time for Alvin!

"3rd Company of the 185th Regiment, 47 people in the whole company, assembly completed!"

Ditz wiped the blood on his face and showed a silly smile.

And behind him, the 47 people remaining in the 3rd Company, almost everyone had more or less injuries on their bodies, looking extremely miserable, but the only difference was... everyone had unyielding fighting spirit in their eyes!

"Company commander, give the order, fight those bastards!"

"That's right, give the order, company commander, we are not afraid of death!"

Looking at the 3rd Company with high morale, Alvin took a deep breath, a little moved, his eyes red, and shouted: "Everyone, follow me and the Commissar, we are retreating!"

Not all Defense Forces are retreating!

There are still a very small number of people who are stubbornly and firmly resisting Chaos and heretics according to their respective situations!

The 3rd Company of the 185th Regiment is one of them!

Although, not everyone can understand this order, the company commander is the company commander, and they still decided to obey!

"You are simply a natural commander!" Looking at the 3rd Company soldiers who could still have combat will miraculously and did not doubt the order at all, even Commissar Gray felt surprised.

You know, this is without a supervising team, purely from the heart, there is only one possibility... that is, Alvin has extremely high prestige in this company!

In just a few days, he could have such high prestige in the company in the form of an airborne.

Gray had seen such people, not without.

And without exception, those people finally became "heroes" who shook the Imperial Guard and even the Empire!

In Alvin... Gray saw hope.

But, when everyone was retreating.

Suddenly, the solid defensive works were shattered by an extremely strong force, and the terrifying aftermath shook, the visible air wave directly knocked them all flying!

Alvin, who fell to the ground, immediately had a bad feeling in his heart. Great fear surged, endless slaughter and blood, wrapped in terrifying gale, arrived!

"Al... Alvin!!!"

It is, Emerich's voice!

This time, Alvin finally heard it clearly, and he could be sure that it was Emerich!

The "Khorne Chosen One" split the solid works with one axe, stepped on the collapsed ruins, wore blasphemous blood god armor, as if an invincible god of war.

The scarlet gaze locked on Alvin's direction, let out a roar that shook the sky, and issued a battle book to him: "Coward—fight!!!"

TMD, Khorne is still chasing me?!

Alvin was so angry that he scolded his mother. Last time there was heavy artillery cover, he barely escaped. What should he do this time?

Couldn't help but search for the post-hemorrhoid surgery... felt even more scared.
