Chapter 408 A Forgotten Artifact

Cold, shaking.

Kane, who was sitting in the Rand troop carrier, sneezed violently. Even the thick political commissar coat on his body could not block the biting cold wind. He had to move closer to his comrades beside him.

Perhaps because they were too close, Sigma was very disgusted with this smooth-talking political commissar. He always felt that this guy was not at all like what people said he was, but rather a thorough veteran.

But the weather was too cold, so the crew had no choice but to huddle together for warmth. No matter how much Sigma disliked it, he had to be sandwiched in the crowd and serve as a roasting oven.

"Brother, you are so warm! I feel so comfortable."

Hearing the words that Commander Krieg said subconsciously, Sigma's face was filled with black lines, and his golden psychic energy was almost extinguished by fear.

It would have been fine in the past, but ever since he met the Emperor and learned that he was actually a fragment of his personality, Sigmar felt inexplicably terrified by such slightly ambiguous words, as if he had done something illegal in the past.

"Bang, bang,"

With the sound of metal knocking, the door of the troop carrier was opened from the outside, and a huge dog head poked in and said to the people who were enjoying the warmth of their good brothers:
"We've arrived at the station. Hurry up and move, or you'll be frozen to death by the low temperature. Roll call will begin now."

"Sigma" "Here!"

"Kane" "Here!"

"nz678" "Here!"

"Forty-seven" "To"

Hearing that there was another person besides the three of them, Sigma stuck his head out to check who this team member who had not appeared was.

When he saw the team member, Sigma didn't think twice and just raised his bolt pistol and shot, but the bomb was slapped away by a steel palm burning with bloody flames. It was their team leader, the dogman Seven.

???

"Fuck, Captain, why did you stop me? It was clearly an alien!"

Looking at the new team members shouting and yelling, Seven took a quick glance and introduced them to the Death Mark Shooter beside him:

"What alien? Once you join the Dark Tide team, you are brothers who share life and death. Don't bring in the inherent thinking you acquired in the Inquisition. Speaking of heretics, none of us are good people."

"Although 47 is a little thin, he is at least very reliable. You can trust him as if he were the emperor!"

"If the Emperor knew you were comparing him to a Necron, he would have sworn at you, and what do you mean by thinner? He is nothing more than a skeleton."

Sigma felt a little regretful for being stuffed into the team. If he had known earlier, he would not have believed Hogg's nonsense. What was he saying about my extraordinary abilities and that I was a one in a million hero? It was obvious that he was fooling me.

Seeing that his good brother Sigma was doubtful, Kaneton, as the political commissar, felt that his job had come. He could not be unworthy of the coat of the political commissar and must fulfill his professional ethics and give guidance.

Kissing the black light amulet he always carried with him, Kane pointed at his glittering earrings and said, "Young man, it's just a Necron, it's not a big deal. 47 shot me before. You see, my ear was broken by him. Now it's just the right time to put an earring in, without having to drill a hole. Don't you agree, 47?"

As the crystal on his forehead flickered, Death Mark Shooter 47 waved the nerve crusher in his hand and replied in a tone of great enlightenment:
"Yes, I fired seven shots, but he dodged them all. The eighth shot hit him, but he didn't die. Because of this shame, Lord Leinster expelled me from the clan."

[Damn it, what kind of monster can withstand the nerve crusher? And you are obviously a Necron, what shameful thing did you do to be expelled from the tribe? ]

Sigma, who was complaining madly in his heart, had a blank expression on his face. At this moment, he finally discovered the tragic fact that apart from himself, the Krieg soldier was the only normal person.

But when Sigma saw the so-called normal human head emitting three colors of light, an engineer's shovel smashing the alien, and shouting Waaaagh!!!, he thought he was still too young. Where on earth did Hogg get these freaks from?

The battlefield does not allow distraction. As a member of the task force, Sigma quickly accepted the fact that their mission this time was to follow the orders of the sage Maokai to go to this alien world and snatch the STC template.

Although it is unclear why the precious STC template fell into the hands of the aliens, it is also unclear why the Sage Maokai sent only five of them instead of leading the Mechanicus army to explore.

But Sigma, who was enjoying the war to the fullest, had forgotten everything else and was using a bolt pistol with a 7-round magazine to suppress the fire. The overwhelming barrage of bullets made it impossible for the opposing aliens to show their heads.

Seeing the completely unreasonable scene through the scope, 47, being a physics man, was no longer surprised. After all, it was already very respectful that this subspace entity did not blow up the enemy leader with a single shot from 800 miles away.

With one sword, he chopped the blasphemous alien that looked like a hairy toad man into pieces. The dog-man Seven, who acted as a meat shield, was not afraid of psychic witchcraft at all. Only a real fight with real swords and guns could defeat him. But in terms of melee ability, he was not afraid of anyone wearing heavy Terminator armor.

Kane, who was crawling on the ground, was just as rumored by the outside world. Although his posture was extremely ugly, any alien would be shot and killed by inexplicable attacks wherever he went. He was a real battlefield harvester.

After being ravaged repeatedly by the five heroes, this smaller alien settlement, even though it put up a desperate resistance, was unable to stop them.

When the last alien guard was torn in half by Krieg's young man, the frightened alien had no courage to resist at all. His heart was already filled with fear and he only wanted to get away from these monsters as soon as possible.

Taking out the plasma cutting guns that had been prepared long ago, they looked at the heavy door that was obviously made by humans, and they all looked at each other, stood guard outside, and let the largest Seven do the work of breaking the door.

Accompanied by the bursting of plasma sparks, the red metal solution instantly condensed into a lump under the low temperature, and then was scooped away by the Krieg boy with an engineering shovel.

Three minutes later, the heavy door was finally broken open, and the magical STC template inside finally revealed its true appearance.

But after seeing the mission item clearly, even Seven, whose mind was full of canned food, realized that this thing was not an STC template at all, because this thing was not created by humans at all.

At this moment, Hogg's voice came from the five-member team's communication:
"Well done, little ones! Don't ask why this isn't an STC template, just know that this thing is important."

"For some unspeakable reason, only people like you with extraordinary talents can go unnoticed."

"Now quickly set up the transmission beacon. We must not let this thing escape."

"Oh! By the way, I forgot to tell you that this creation is actually called the Heart of Plague."

　I went to the company to pack up my things today. I've worked here for more than a year and I'm still a little reluctant to leave. Forget it, I'm going back to my hometown.
