Chapter 208 One shot into the soul
Light cruiser Lima.
After mustering up all his strength to release the last dimensional gate, Chen Xinlu closed his eyes, his body went limp, and he fell weakly to the side.
Fu Qinghai, who was standing next to her, subconsciously reached out and took Sister Bingshan into his arms.
Outside the captain's room, Zhang Yuning, who had just walked over, narrowed her big and narrow eyes when she saw this scene.
Fu Qinghai pushed the woman out of his arms without saying a word. Chen Xinlu flew to the side. Fortunately, Jiang Yixia caught her quickly and held her in his arms.
The expression on Zhang Yuning's face turned from gloomy to clear. She, Ron, Eugene and others were about to come over, when Fu Qinghai stretched out his hand to stop them:
"Wait a moment."
Fu Qinghai ordered to Eugene Eleanor:
"Bring a flamethrower and a disinfectant aerosol can and go through the pretreatment procedures for biological and chemical weapons."
Eugene was stunned, nodded quickly, and turned to make arrangements.
Thirty skitarii were still on standby outside the captain's room in an orderly manner. After Eugene brought the disinfection equipment and flamethrowers, Fu Qinghai, Qiao Shida and Camille directly used the flamethrowers to sweep them over their bodies, treating them as high-temperature sterilization. The three women wearing power armor also had to be sprayed with disinfectant aerosol cans.
Fighting against the reincarnations from the Resident Evil Hazard is just a little troublesome. In terms of frontal combat effectiveness, it’s hard to say how strong it is, but it’s this kind of contagiousness at the micro level that makes it hard to guard against.
As a company commander and captain, Fu Qinghai must not just be convenient and save trouble, but must also consider carefully to avoid accidentally infecting some mortal crew members with low immunity, causing a zombie plague to break out in the cabin of the Liima.
After finishing the process, Fu Qinghai asked Eugene to arrange Chen Xinlu and the others to the medical deck to receive further treatment, eradicate all kinds of pharmaceuticals injected from the body, and ordered the Skitarii to return to the scientific research ship on the Thunder Eagle gunboat. , and he and the others returned to their respective cabins to take a short rest.
…
Captain's room.
Fu Qinghai took off his power armor with mottled paint. After a brief shower, he put on a gray linen robe and sat on the revolving seat, holding a small notebook and a mechanical pen in his hand.
On the small book, the first name has been crossed out.
The flawless blade, Lucius.
A horizontal line in the middle indicates that they have already fought.
Look down this name:
Blade Warrior, Calth Wayne.
The Mourning Crow, Nikon Sharokin.
Prince of Crows, Yago Sevita Lyon.
…
The last name.
Black Marshal, Sigismund.
The first person under the true Primarch, Black Knight, Sword Master, Sigismund.
Fu Qinghai's eyes stayed on this name for a long time.
This is a list made by Fu Qinghai to record the people he wants to challenge.
You can clearly remember it in your head, so why do you need to make a special notebook?
Because it seems more ceremonial.
This is a pure list of warriors and does not include such well-known think tanks as Iskandar Kayan, Talihutai Yesugei and Azhak Ahriman.
But including Karn the Betrayer and Abaddon the Invincible Warmaster.
Like the hunting master Juba Khan and Qin Xia, the leader of Qixue, in the normal timeline, there is no chance to fight with these two people again.
Only the Crow Prince Sevita, Fu Qinghai was more confused about whether to let this person in.
Unlike others who are simply superb in martial arts, Sevatar is actually a space warrior with strong psychic talents. Conrad Curze, the original body of the Night Lords, is full of psychic talents, and his descendants are out of the think tank. The probability is also very high, but Coze has always been pessimistic and superstitious, and does not allow his subordinates to practice psychic powers, so Sevatar has not been able to become a think tank, and has always concealed the fact that he has mastered psychic powers, often using this trick to cheat in battles. opponent.
Excluding psychic abilities and looking at actual martial arts, Sevatar is very strong, but not particularly strong.
Fu Qinghai gently closed the small book.
He muttered in a low voice:
"Lucius, hum, Lucius the Flawless Blade, Lucius the Immortal."
The first well-known Astartes figure that Fu Qinghai defeated.
Lucius, the former captain of the Thirteenth Company of the Emperor's Children, although he was the number one swordsman of the Third Legion, before he became the Chosen of Slaanesh, his record had always been relatively poor.
Generally, people with high martial arts skills are aloof and arrogant, but Lucius is very jealous of his peers and likes to kneel down and lick high-ranking leaders. During the massacre at the landing site, he first fought with the loyalists The first group, then became jealous and defected to the rebels just because Thor Tarvitz had gained command, killing many loyal Emperor's Children.
His two major crotch pulling achievements:
First, in the training cage, Lucius first beat up the Chief Priest of the Word Bearers, Ari Bass, to a bloody pulp, but Garvill Loken noticed his style of relying too much on technique and ignoring the results, and punched him. turn.
Fu Qinghai's punch was a tribute to Loken.
Second, in the subsequent continuous hunting of the surviving loyalists, Lucius encountered the number one assassin under the Crow Throne - the mourning crow Sha Luo Jin. He was defeated twice by Sha Luo Jin. First, he had a symmetrical mark on his face. He was humiliated by two knives, and then stabbed through two hearts and throats.
Fu Qinghai’s four swords pay tribute to Sha Luo Jin.
Originally, Lucius was already dead, and the old Chinese doctor planned to use his waste to dissect him to study, but in the end, this guy sat up from the operating table for no apparent reason, and ran away before the old Chinese doctor could react.
Blessed by Slaanesh.
After Lucius entered the Eye of Terror, he awakened the attributes of a soul thief, and his record continued to improve. However, anyone who killed Lucius and felt a sense of satisfaction in the process would be rewarded in the future. , looking more and more like Lucius, and finally turned into Lucius completely, while he became a wriggling human face on Lucius's breastplate and shoulder armor.
Possessed and seized his body, he was named "The Immortal" Lucius.
This setting is obviously inspired by Japanese supernatural horror movies. Tomie Kawakami and Kayako Kawamata both have similar body-taking processes, and the details are particularly similar.
It was exaggerated to such an extent that even the Necrons without flesh and blood bodies would be affected, including the fact that Lucius was later killed by a landmine, and then he killed the worker who made the mine.
Therefore, Fu Qinghai repeatedly warned Lucius not to die. Although in theory, Lucius became a "soul thief" after entering the Eye of Terror, Fu Qinghai did not dare to gamble. The blessing of evil takes effect at this moment.
"What are you thinking about?"
A soft female voice sounded next to Fu Qinghai's ears.
Fu Qinghai came back from his thoughts.
He took Zhang Yuning beside him into his arms, buried his face in the black hair, took a deep breath, and whispered:
"nothing."
"What are you going to do with those three women?"
Zhang Yuning asked:
"I remember you had a grudge against them before."
"Oh, yes."
Fu Qinghai felt bad thinking about it and sighed helplessly:
"Whenever you pass by any hive, drop them off by the way."
"snort."
The evil beauty snorted:
"In my opinion, just stuff it into the escape hatch and throw it out."
"Ah ha ha."
Fu Qinghai laughed dryly and scratched his head:
"It's not good to kill someone just by turning around."
"but."
Fu Qinghai looked at Zhang Yuning in his arms and said seriously:
"If you insist, yes, no problem."
"whispering sound."
Zhang Yuning wrinkled her nose with disdain:
"Retreat in order to advance, right? You scumbag!"
Fu Qinghai looked innocent, spread his hands and said:
"Who am I scumbag?"
"Anyone who is soft-hearted is a scumbag."
Zhang Yuning concluded.
Fu Qinghai looked at Zhang Yuning's cute and innocent look and couldn't help but stretch out his fingers to smooth out her wrinkled delicate nose.
After reflecting on his battle experience and chatting with Zhang Yuning, Fu Qinghai got up from the swivel seat, walked out of the captain's room, and headed to the medical deck.
…
This wave of psychic gang-hopping operations resulted in a lot of gains and a lot of assimilation points, but Fu Qinghai was still a little dissatisfied.
He wanted to see if Chen Xinlu was awake.
Arriving in a medical cabin on the medical deck, Chen Xinlu was lying on the bed in a coma, her face changing from red to white.
Fu Qinghai frowned, looked at Camille aside, and asked:
"What's going on? I remember she got better, didn't she? Why is she like this again now?"
Camille spread his hands and said:
"I just used chemical regulators to suppress the medicines in her body, but the final use of magic activated the medicines in her body."
"What are you going to do?"
Fu Qinghai asked.
Camille said:
"The crew just taught me how to use your equipment. I plan to give her a comprehensive hemodialysis to help her clean out some of the pharmaceutical ingredients in her body. The rest will be excreted through her own metabolism."
After saying that, he turned his back and started operating the equipment.
"Um."
Fu Qinghai nodded.
Suddenly, he noticed movement under Chen Xinlu's eyelids, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her mouth opened slightly, as if she wanted to say something.
Fu Qinghai reached out and patted her face.
"Hey, Chen Xinlu."
Fu Qinghai had a plan in mind, a bad idea to further earn assimilation points, and it could only be implemented with the cooperation of Chen Xinlu.
"Well, um..."
Sister Bingshan twisted her body restlessly, her face turned to one side, she was mumbling something incomprehensible, and her two long legs were twisted together.
Fu Qinghai didn't show any pity for her. He pinched Chen Xinlu's face with his fingers, pulled it away forcefully, and said:
"Wake up first, I have something to tell you."
(PS: A large part of the plot has been deleted here.)
As a result, Chen Xinlu made an action that Fu Qinghai didn't expect at all.
She pinched his finger.
Fu Qinghai: "!??"
Hey, don't tell me, you're doing pretty well.
It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
Fu Qinghai was astonished in his heart, and after reacting, he pulled out his finger with a shrinking hand.
Chen Xinlu suddenly woke up.
Her eyes were a little blurry, as if she was still immersed in some kind of dream. She lowered her head and looked...
Chen Xinlu's eyes slowly opened wide, and her fair face quickly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"alright."
Fu Qinghai spoke calmly to break the awkward atmosphere, wiped his fingers on the white sterile cloth on Chen Xinlu's chest with some disgust, and said:
"You're awake, right? Listen to me."
Fu Qinghai looked at Chen Xinlu and asked seriously:
"Your dimensional gate is the largest. How wide can it expand?"
"ah?"
Chen Xinlu looked confused. She had not yet reacted to the scene just now, and her whole head was filled with confusion.
"I said……"
Fu Qinghai was about to repeat his question again when Chen Xinlu suddenly interrupted him and said:
"You put your finger in my mouth!"
Fu Qinghai stared:
"Shit, you bit it yourself."
"I do not believe!"
"Do you want me to adjust the monitoring?"
"I……"
Chen Xinlu was speechless.
"what are you guys saying?"
Camille, who was debugging equipment not far away, turned his head.
Fu Qinghai smiled and joked:
"I'll call a crew member over right now and bring the data pad to Ms. Chen to see the video."
"No... no need."
Seeing Fu Qinghai so sure, Chen Xinlu lowered his head and muttered.
Fu Qinghai put away the smile on his face and repeated the question seriously:
"How big can your dimensional gate be?"
Chen Xinlu thought about it silently and said softly:
"Have you seen "Avengers 4: Endgame"?"
"uh-huh."
Fu Qinghai nodded.
"I can expand the dimension gate as big as it is inside."
Chen Xinlu replied in a low voice.
"Hmm...that's it."
Fu Qinghai raised his arm and touched his chin. The smile on his face became more and more unrestrained.
…
Four days later.
In the dark space, the light cruiser Liema is next to the light spear array.
A Thunderhawk gunboat opened its tail engine nozzle, adjusted its speed, and kept parallel to the cruiser.
Fu Qinghai personally sat in the driving seat of the Thunder Eagle gunboat, holding the operating lever with one hand and pointing the muzzle of the light spear outside the porthole with one hand, and said to Chen Xinlu sitting next to him:
"See, that's it!"
Chen Xinlu nodded:
"I saw it."
The Imperial Navy's light spear array, regardless of its size, looks very much like the turret on a battleship during World War I. On top of a huge square turret, there is a row of long barrels with a large barrel-to-caliber ratio. Then the largest laser weapon in the human empire-the light spear.
Not everyone has the Nova Cannon. Light spears, macro cannons and torpedoes constitute the main weapons on the Imperial Navy warships. Light spears have a long range and high shooting accuracy. They are the best choice for long-distance bombardment. Some light spear models also have special attacks on void shields. It is easy to penetrate the void shield or cause it to be overloaded. The disadvantage is that the rate of fire is slow.
The macro cannon has a fast rate of fire but poor accuracy, and its range is shorter than that of the light lance. It does decent damage to the ship's hull and is suitable for medium and short-range bombardment. The main significance of the torpedo is that it is slow and can be guided, and can break through the interception of the void shield.
The Enforcer-class system controls the cruiser. In order to make room for Gnaku, there is no macrogun array, only a light spear array.
Fu Qinghai asked:
“Have you ever been to the stern of the battleship of the Carol of Joy?”
Chen Xinlu shook her head:
"No, I was taken to the bilge prison as soon as I got on board."
"Tsk."
Fu Qinghai pondered for a while.
This is even more difficult to deal with. The caliber of the light spear is smaller than that of the macro cannon, but it is still a huge weapon. It cannot be packed in a narrow place like the battleship channel.
Fu Qinghai asked again:
"What's the most spacious place you've ever been on the Carol?"
Chen Xinlu thought for a while and said:
"It's the boarding deck."
Boarding the ship deck?
Fu Qinghai carefully recalled his path after joining the gang, as well as his general understanding of the structure of the Imperial cruiser's hull, including the keel layout, compartment distribution, direction and orientation, etc...
Well, no, the boarding deck is too far from the plasma reactor, and there may be a battleship keel in between. The keel made of adamantine cannot be penetrated by a luminous spear.
Since it wants to bloom internally, it must be targeted at the key points.
Fu Qinghai asked seriously and patiently:
"Chen Xinlu, if you think about it carefully, where can you open the dimensional door at the place closest to the rear of the battleship and large enough to accommodate the muzzle of the light spear?"
Chen Xinlu frowned and thought for a long time, then said slowly:
"There is a place, at the corner of the stairs closest to the stern of the battleship in the bilge prison. The space there is spacious enough. I have been there too."
"very good."
Fu Qinghai smiled with satisfaction, put on his helmet, and ordered over the communication channel:
"Light Spear Array No. 1, main gun No. 001, are you ready?"
"Ready, Khan!"
The person who answered Fu Qinghai on the communication channel was the mortal officer in charge of the light spear array and artillery deck.
At this time, the gun deck.
In front of the light spear control array is a servitor that is hard-wired to the machine position. On both sides of the servitor are the crew members who are busy adjusting the firing status. Behind them, stand Joe Star, Camille, Ron and Zhang Yuning. et al.
"Light Spear Array No. 1, main gun No. 001, countdown to firing."
The servitor said in a stiff voice.
"10, 9, 8..."
Just when the servitor counted to "3", Chen Xinlu suddenly waved the finger wearing the hanging ring, and in the dark and boundless space, directly in front of the main gun of the light spear, a huge dimensional gate was pulled out.
On the other side of the dimensional gate is somewhere in the bottom cabin of the Underworld-class heavy cruiser. Dark and dim lights shine from inside. Because the instantaneous connection of the dimensional gate caused a large amount of air in the ship to escape, forming a pressure void.
In space, there is no sound.
The laser generator focused countless beams of light into one. The golden light, like divine punishment from heaven, was both brilliant and hot. It shot straight out of the muzzle. For a moment, the dazzling light caused Fu Qinghai's goggles to automatically The photosensitivity threshold is lowered to protect vision.
The light spear did not run towards the deep black space, but sank directly into the ring of fire at the dimensional gate.
Success!
Fu Qinghai clenched his fist tightly.
This was the opening direction carefully chosen by Fu Qinghai, facing the plasma reactor at the rear of the battleship. He saw with his own eyes that the huge golden beam completely submerged the prison in the bottom cabin, and instantly penetrated the bulkheads, heading straight for the battleship. Go to the tail.
The edge of the ring of fire at the Gate of Dimension was slightly scratched by the continuously radiating light, and went out with a "squeak" sound.
As if suffering some kind of backlash from interrupting the spellcasting, Chen Xinlu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned pale, rolled her eyes, and fainted again.
Fu Qinghai quickly leaned over to check.
Fortunately, I am still breathing and alive.
Now Fu Qinghai had no time to care whether the plasma reactor of the Ode of Joy was hit. After all, a reactor as big as a building would probably be hit if hit with eyes closed. Fu Qinghai hurriedly asked on the communication channel:
"How's it going? Over there, did that servitor react?"
At this moment, on the artillery deck, Joestar was holding a weapon, and there were armed sailors standing around. Everyone was staring at the back of the servitor as if facing an enemy, looking at this skinny half-man, half-machine, still standing there blankly. .
"Khan, there are no changes to the servitors for the time being."
Joestar replied into the communication channel.
"Qingshan, I didn't feel the transfer of my soul."
Zhang Yuning also spoke on the communication channel.
Very good, it seems that either Lucius is not dead, or the cause and effect of Lucius' death is not attributed to the servitor who pressed the launch button.
Fu Qinghai nodded secretly.
Fu Qinghai deliberately let the servitor complete the firing of the light spear, rather than the mortal gunner, based on this consideration.
The chain explosion caused by the plasma reactor being hit will disintegrate even the strongest warship, but the disintegration will not happen in an instant, but will progress layer by layer as the explosion is conducted, the keel is broken, and the hull is torn apart. , if you are lucky, there is still a chance of escape.
There is even a precedent for the Word Bearers to join the Ultramarines in these warship fragments.
The naval battleships of the Human Empire stand out in various sci-fi IPs as being strong and durable. In the era of space naval battles, ships still use ramming horns. The solid defense is unimaginable. The adamantine keel is the basic operation, and the thickness of the hull is often dozens of times. Meter, dozens of meters thick composite armor plate, even if the void shield is overloaded and fails, it will not disintegrate on the spot even if it is hit by a few luminous spears and macro cannons.
But attacks from within are different.
Except for the battleship keel that serves as the supporting frame, no one would have the luxury to play with adamantine armor in the densely packed bulkheads inside the battleship.
[You killed the Emperor's Children Space Marine...]
[The progress of the points competition has increased...]
【You killed...】
…
Countless reminders of assimilation points flashed in the back of my mind until...
[You destroyed the Underworld-class heavy cruiser Carol of Joy...]
[The progress of the points competition has increased...]
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Fu Qinghai clapped his hands and laughed heartily. He didn't need to see the scene on the other side. He already knew the ending through the significant increase in the progress of the points competition.
Fu Qinghai then thought about it and wondered if there was another possibility: Lucius at this stage simply did not have the ability to be a soul thief?
