"I want a slave girl."

"I know, I know you have a lot of ideas, but let's focus on the matter at hand first and wait until we take away the ritual materials before talking about anything else."

The group of people walked towards the place where the ritual materials were kept.

All mortal servants they met on the road knelt and saluted them.

Ancardo and his party arrived at the place quickly.

This is a place similar to a reservoir, as big as a square, where hundreds of ritual materials are guarded by mortal soldiers.

Ancardo had just taught his brothers to focus on the matter at hand, but he himself excluded the people in front of him from the ritual materials and focused on picking the prey of his choice.

But there is really no prey that can be caught.

Here is a group of old guys, disabled and old. Guarded by soldiers, they are like a group of old domestic animals that cannot even move.

"Look at this old guy." Ancado walked up to an old man, grabbed her neck and pulled him up. After looking at her, he said: "Radiation disease, a disease caused by excessive intake of acidic substances... Standard pseudo-emperor slaves, hive livestock that are inferior to clones, can only survive today thanks to the small potions of the Tailon people."

"Okay, everyone knows that you are a pharmacist, so stop showing off your professional experience."

"What good can Huron do with these old guys? How many souls can they squeeze out of their bodies? When we take them back, all that bastard Huron can do is provide for these old guys until they die."

Ancardo wanted to drop the old man, but hesitated just as he was about to let go.

He looked into the old man's eyes.

The old man's eyes were fixed on Ancado's helmet.

After watching for a while, Ancado suddenly said in the communication channel: "I feel something is wrong. It doesn't seem like these people were abandoned here."

The others immediately became serious and listened to Ancardo's words.

"When I came here, I was curious about one thing, and that is, if many people were abandoned during the transfer of the hive city, why can only hive city No. 7 find these ritual materials?"

"These people are not afraid at all, nor are they numb. Rather, they seem to be watching the stove at home, looking at old photos from the past, and waiting for the end..."

If these two combat teams were randomly recruited, they would only ask Ancardo if he was farting or if he really wanted to say something useful.

All members of the combat team participating in this escort mission knew each other and were fully armed. In order to prevent the Hojuku people from taking away the remaining ritual materials halfway, they needed tacit understanding and force.

"Let's go." Ancardo felt furious, turned around and walked towards the way he came.

All the Space Marines walked quickly and silently, as if they suddenly remembered some urgent matter that they had not yet dealt with, and walked away naturally, but their pace was getting faster and faster.

Until one of these old men took his hand out of his sleeve, and then the skinny arm that looked very natural unfolded, revealing a red button.

The soldiers reacted and rushed towards him, but it was too late to stop him.

The entire No. 7 Nest disappeared on the planet together with everything inside, including Ancardo and others who had just returned to the transport plane.

There was no deep pit caused by the explosion, no ruins, and it was as if Hive No. 7 had never existed, leaving only a flat piece of land on the original site.

The night shift today made me feel a little uncomfortable due to the wind. I will have the fourth update today and I will take a rest.

Chapter 396 Cruelty and Kindness

……

"Report."

"Hive City No. 7 disappeared from the surface."

He Qizheng, who was discussing matters in the main nest city, heard the Shiren assistant report the matter.

Gray was surprised, but He Qizheng and the others either nodded or closed their eyes, obviously expecting this.

He Qi was looking at Gray, and when the latter looked at him and asked why, he slowly spoke.

"Mr. Guard, do you know the process for taking office as the new Governor of the Tyrone Sector?"

No doubt Gray didn't know.

He Qizheng continued to explain.

"When the Praetorians and Space Marines killed the former Governor and were about to leave, I boarded a transport plane and entered the battleship and was sent to the sector capital for training."

"After a series of training sessions, all of our new governors and successors to the governor were called into a room and each was given a box."

"There is a device inside that box. When activated, it can completely wipe out matter in a large area."

"Its purpose..."

He Qizheng paused for two seconds and continued, "There is only one sentence to describe its use: when you are in a desperate situation, you should activate it. It will erase everything painlessly and quickly. This is the mercy of the star zone. You must activate it. This is the trust the star zone has in you."

After listening, Gray could guess why the hive disappeared.

Obviously, someone in the hive used the suicide box given to the Governor.

The guards also have similar self-destruction devices in their bodies. As far as Gray knows, this thing is like the guards. It cannot be made using conventional means and can only be produced by the hands of the Lord of Tyrone.

"Hive City No. 7 has a long history, which means it will have some willing victims." He Qi looked directly into Gray's eyes, "I tried my best, but there are still at least a few hundred people who are unwilling to leave, so..."

He Qizheng wanted to defend himself, lest Gray think that he had set a trap using people as bait.

And this is true.

Human beings are an extremely diverse species. In the desperate situation when the hive city clearly wants to abandon the small hive city, some people hope to leave as soon as possible, some people ask for weapons to stay and fight guerrillas, and some people do not want to leave but want to make themselves The place where you grow up becomes your own grave...

When these people seem to have been stamped with ideological stamps and assume the attitude of killing me or doing whatever I want, all they can do is let them go.

"I understand." Gray patted He Qizheng's shoulder, "But that box is left for you. As the person who sent you the box said, it is the mercy of Lord Tailong. If you are forced to have no choice, those who want to give you the box will The approaching enemy can think of ten thousand ways to torture you without even turning his head, but as a pampered governor, you have exhausted all your courage just by stuffing the barrel of the gun into your mouth. How can you do this? manage?"

"Don't forget that I am not the successor to the governor. I have been forced to almost swallow the barrel of a gun more than once." He Qizheng said this easily.

Gray nodded silently. This was not his first time in Beisu Nest City, and he believed that He Qizheng was brave enough to put the barrel of the gun into his mouth and pull the trigger.

There are too many terrifying things in this universe. The torture methods described by the Huron company commander who was captured by Foros ten years ago can make the listener shudder with fear.

Suicide boxes are truly a mercy.

But having said that, there are many people who have seen horror, and there are many who don't need a box.

"Don't be so pessimistic. At least the main hive city has not been breached yet." He Qizheng stood up and walked to a staff officer and ordered him: "Scan the hive world and see how many enemies there are now."

Scanning equipment hidden deep beneath the hive emits scanning waves across the planet.

The scan results were returned quickly and sorted.

There are at least 400 million enemies on the entire planet.

The suicide transport launched by the Red Pirates war gang using a transport ship seems crazy, and it is very likely that the orbit of the North Star will be canceled by both the people and the ship, but it is indeed effective.

At least the enemy has put enough troops on Beisu-1 to carry out a long-term war.

When the navy is stretched thin, it is difficult to intercept the enemy before it deploys its troops, but fortunately there is a powerful existence helping the navy deal with enemy ships coming from the galaxy.

At least no more troops will be put on Beisu-1 in the future.

"There is a high probability that we will engage in an apocalyptic war." Gray stood up from his seat. "If you have any questions, please contact my ship. I have to go to enemy-occupied areas for a while to collect intelligence."

"Pay attention to safety." He Qizheng stood up to see Gray off, walked to the door and asked again: "Do you need help? My assistant may be able to help you."

Upon hearing this, Gray turned his head.

The stone assistant saluted.

Gray was the only person present who knew that it was not human. He also knew that the device used by the stone man to receive commands could replace brain tissue and make people crazy and cruel after being implanted in the human body. The stone man's body was covered with technological crystals. They are perfect creatures shaped by transcendent forces.

But Gray still refused because he could not rule out the possibility that the enemy would use decapitation tactics on He Qizheng.

This governor was more qualified than any current planetary governor Gray had ever seen, and his death would be a heavy blow to morale.

"Protect him." Gray said to the stone man, then turned and left.

While using his jetpack to move outside the hive, Gray passed by the northern wall and saw the Martian Witch.

Gray, who has worked with Yao En for many years, wanted to say hello to his friend's daughter, but he gave up when he saw Diana standing in a daze on the Mars Witch's phaser.

Drones are collecting the bodies of the dead outside the city walls and piling them together.

The Martian Witch is parked next to a mountain of corpses.

Diana stood on the phaser's sight, and two operators sat in the gully of the sight.

In front of the three Titan pilots is a giant mountain of corpses that has almost reached the Titan's shoulders. Farther away is the wreckage of the destroyed Warmaster-class Titan.

An operations officer described the wreckage as "like a mountain in the shape of a fallen giant."

Another operator described the pile of corpses as "like a Necron obelisk made of limbs and red debris, decorated with helmets."

Diana had seen a war more brutal than this, on Dead Domain Three.

But at that time, all the people who died were iron men and iron skeletons, so I didn’t feel anything at all.

Looking at everything in front of her now, Diana understood what her father said that day in the Titan hangar, "like the Battle of Cadia."

However, the three people who had just started their career as Titan pilots at this time did not know that the intensity of the war on the northern wall of the hive city was far less than one thousandth of the brutality of the previous battle for the Skyguard in the Battle of Cadia.

Because the mountain of corpses lacked the helmets and fragments of loyal and rebel Space Marines.

The corpses of both sides engaged in a meat-crushing battle in any turret of the weapons array are enough to build another wall for the hive city.

Chapter 397 The Nature of Chaos

……

Dead zone.

Compared with the war in Beisu, the war Yaoen faced was much crueler and more brutal.

No matter how Huron and his men use desperate transportation tactics, the troops still have to be dropped on Beisu No. 1 in the real universe, but this is not required in the dead zone.

A galaxy 400 light-years away from the Dead Zone in the North Star Galaxy has become a gateway that must be fought over, and demons are emerging out of thin air every minute.

When the reality membrane and curtain are severely weakened, the devil only needs a little effort to slip through the portal into the real universe out of thin air.

The Iron Man Mothership places itself directly in the star orbit of the galaxy to ensure that it can launch Iron Man with maximum efficiency.

In this galaxy with only one planet, there is only one battlefield that needs to be focused on.

When Yaon and the Soulless Legion, the army stationed in the Webway, and the Blackstone Fortress arrived in the galaxy, they looked at the planet and could not see the surface. They could only see patches of red, green, blue, and black "enclosed objects." "Objects" surged on the surface.

It was like a naughty kid was taking a model the size of a planet and painting it with all kinds of paints he found that didn't match at all.
