Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

"Go to hell! Traitor!"

"Hmph! Garbage, at most it's a little more difficult to deal with than a banshee!"

Even though the gray knights who rushed over were inferior to the Forbidden Army in terms of individual combat power, they seemed to be much more efficient than Constantine and the six Forbidden Army in dealing with miscellaneous objects from different spaces.

Plus a "predecessor" Pluto who lived for more than 100,000 years and even taught and instructed Magnus in various spells...

Dozens of people burst into the momentum of thousands or tens of thousands of people.

As for the Salamander, even though it has been strengthened as much as possible by a group of evil gods and demons, it is still unable to avoid being a creation of a different space in essence. Therefore, the Moonlight Bolter, which is exclusive to the Gray Knight, can still have a considerable degree of damage to them. Injury and torture.

"Another gang of lackeys of the false emperor!"

Seeing that the heirs whom he took care of, trained, and expected to restore the "glory" of mankind with it, were actually slaughtered by a group of "running dogs" wearing silver power armor, Vulkan immediately charged furiously, brandishing his warhammer. We must throw it at the new "running dog".

"Clang!!"

However, Constantine, who had been keeping an eye on the battlefield, threw out the Cassius gun with all his might, blocking the attack of the Primarch of Chaos.

At the same time as throwing the spear, Constantine also pulled out a straight long sword that looked like a "Han sword" from the scabbard hanging around his waist. The body of the sword was engraved with dragon patterns, and the hilt was inlaid with the most precious emerald jade. .

Immediately afterwards, Constantine grasped the sharp sword given by his father and named "Dragon Soul" in his left hand, and easily harvested the salamanders who dared to come forward, and his right hand was not idle, calling back the fallen Cassius gun Attack Vulkan.

After all, among the people present, only he, the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, was able to contend against a fallen original body.

And Hades?

Although this "former Pluto" who was treated by plague doctors and illuminated by the spiritual energy of the human emperor, is infinitely close to his peak period, and is stronger than most of the Forbidden Army and Gray Knights...

But after all, it is a "mage".

The psychic power might be able to hinder Vulkan to some extent, but once he gets close, Hades will definitely be "exploded" by the war hammer.

As for the "Dragon Soul" sword, it was also a sharp blade stronger than the ruling sword that Sui Bian got rid of Hephaestus who moved the "craftsmanship" into the imperial palace with all his strength.

However, the ruling sword is already considered standard equipment for the emperor. Sui Bian originally wanted to show the Dragon Soul Sword to the public when the empire was established for a hundred years.

So before that, Sui Bian temporarily kept the Dragon Soul Sword in Constantine's custody. When necessary, Constantine could use this sword to cut off and destroy enemies that could endanger his life.

This also shows from the side that the human emperor seems to be a loyal and silent commander of the imperial army.

soon.

With Constantine taking the initiative to hold back the increasingly powerful Vulkan, the imperial army and the gray knights easily completed the rendezvous between the salamanders.

"Child!" At this moment, Hades turned a salamander into a skeleton with a wave of his hand, and shouted to Constantine who was blocking Vulkan:

"We are ready! Come here quickly, don't love to fight!"

?

Konstantin, who was struggling to push the hammer away, didn't know what Hades' plan was, but at this point, he couldn't allow him to get entangled. He made a stabbing motion with the dragon soul with his left hand, forcing Vulkan to take a step back.

After all, even if the Primarch of Chaos does not understand the external situation, it is good at forging and casting, and it must be extremely tricky to be cut by the dragon soul.

Constantine took advantage of this, and after distanced himself from Vulkan, he leaped vigorously and jumped back into the simple position built by his brothers in an instant.

"Children! Let's go!"

When Hades saw Constantine return to the formation, he immediately raised his clenched right hand, and then knelt down on one knee with all his strength, and the front of his right fist also made contact with the ground.

Seeing that Vulcan and Salamander are about to surround them.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa...!"

The blasting of the bolt guns stopped abruptly, and the position formed by the Imperial Army and the Gray Knights also disappeared, leaving Vulkan and countless Salamanders empty.

It should be said that when Hades hit the ground with his right fist, a ghostly emerald green "soul" burst out, enveloping the entire position in an instant, and then disappeared out of thin air in front of the chaos.

? ? ?

Even Volcan couldn't understand how the descendants of those false emperors escaped from this underground space "blessed" by their gods.

…

at the same time.

Located on the sunny side of Thanosche, on the side of a dry river bed where there is no howling wind for the time being...

Shua~————! click.

Green light flashed.

"Plop! Plop!"

The ghostly soul appeared in mid-air, and threw a group of gray knights and forbidden soldiers out of "it", causing the giants to smash to the ground one by one, causing dust and debris to explode, Even Constantine.

On the contrary, Hades, who had been prepared for a long time, landed on the ground very gracefully, and even "recovered" and dissipated the ghost soul that led them out of the predicament successfully.

Fortunately, the Imperial Army and the Gray Knights don't care how embarrassing the landing posture is. After all, they are brothers, and Hades is not an outsider in a sense. What's more, the age of this "predecessor" Pluto needs tens of thousands of years. unit.

When they re-arranged their formation and looked around, the quantum communication displayed on the screens of everyone's helmets and the information notification bar finally returned to "as usual".

However, there was no such thing as a "continuous explosion" of various information, such as when the phone was out of power and the charger was plugged in again, or the phone turned on the airplane mode and reconnected to the network after landing.

Because for the task force composed of Griffin, Luna, and three stealth-class ships, Constantine, Leon, and other tens of thousands of troops who penetrated into the Thanosche underground network tunnel system are all performing reconnaissance missions step by step. , did not suffer any abnormalities, attacks at all...

Of course, this phenomenon is all due to evil spirits.

In fact, the Red Queen has noticed subtle clues. However, as an artificial intelligence, even though she is more like a human being than a hundred years ago, she still cannot understand the "sixth sense" and "intuition" well.

The most important thing is that the Red Queen didn't focus her work on Thanos Che, so she didn't pay attention to it and screen it carefully.

Seeing that the communication was normal, Constantine immediately operated the armor to generate a holographic screen in front of him, and then uploaded the real-time images captured in the underground space to the Moon Goddess, and then let the Red Queen forward them to his father in the main universe.

After completing this operation, Constantine secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and then looked not far away, his eyes were emitting a faint green light, standing there seemed to be Hades who was thinking and sensing something.

?

Aware of Constantine's gaze, Hades finished the alternative meditation, slowly approached Constantine, raised his head slightly, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, kid, do you have any questions?"

"Nothing." Constantine shook his head lightly.

"Hehe." Seeing this, Hades laughed at himself and said, "My child, although I am far inferior to your primarch brothers, or your emperor's father, I am still a Ancient God of Earth.

And..." At this point, Hades' words suddenly faltered, and then the former Pluto looked up at the night sky and continued:

"And don't forget, my younger brothers and I led our subordinates into the different space and directly confronted the evil gods hiding in the different space.

Although the result is not very good, but now, I, a majestic Pluto, can still cast some "small" spells that even the evil gods can't understand...

So, boy, you should be thankful that I didn't choose to retire early, otherwise you and your brothers wouldn't have come out so early. "

At this moment, Hades, like a "kind" old man without murderous intent, uttered a slightly melancholy joke.

"..."

Constantine nodded silently.

Indeed, after the episode just now, the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, who thought he was second only to the Primarch and his father, personally experienced the truth that "there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky".

At the same time, Constantine also understood that "an old man is like a treasure".

"Okay kid." Hades withdrew his gaze from the starry sky, stretched his five fingers, spread his right hand flat, and once again called out the ghostly soul from before, letting it wrap his whole body, he said to Constantine:

"There are still many children under Thanos Che who need to be guided, you take care... Well, it seems that you don't need to take care, on the surface, there should be nothing that can threaten you, hahaha~!"

As the voice gradually fell, Hades' figure disappeared, only the hearty laughter echoed for a long time.

"..."

Constantine stopped for a moment, and secretly sighed inwardly, why among the different versions of ancient Greek myths, Hades, the king of the underworld, always had the best reputation.

Silence a little.

Constantine put the dragon soul back into the scabbard, then turned around while waving the cloak, and reminded the guards and Gray Knight brothers in a deep voice:

"Everyone, without the company of Brother Thutmose, we can no longer rashly go deep into the webway, and we have to stand by until the empire responds.

Therefore, what we can do now is to remain vigilant, ensure the safety of the ground, and prevent the evil gods and demons from launching a direct attack on our fleet.

Another thing I can be sure of is that if my father knew about the events that broke out below the surface of Thanosche, he would definitely mobilize a certain Primarch and the main force of his legion to deal with the Chaos Primarch and the Astartes...

This is also very likely to be the first large-scale transfer at the legion level since the founding of the empire, and it is more likely that his father will continue to pay attention.

Anyway, get ready for a war, guys. "

"..."

Hearing Constantine's reminder, all the brothers nodded silently, expressing their understanding.

…

Before Hades led Constantine and others to escape successfully.

The main universe, Earth.

Inside the Meditation Hall of the Imperial Palace…

"You two, do you have any opinions on the training of Astartes recruits, or better proposals?"

Sui Bian, who was sitting on the golden throne, opened his eyes and asked the two artificial intelligence secretaries who were almost always standing by his left and right hands unless it was a special situation or period.

Hearing this, Empress Bai turned around first, faced Sui Bian and asked back, "Why did Your Majesty say that?"

"If you want to talk about why..." Sui Bian murmured, "It's because the data show that relying on a prehistoric planet as their final training is a bit too simple."

"Mmm... indeed." Bai Hou nodded in agreement.

As Sui Bian said, today's prehistoric planets are the final "checkpoint" for recruits who are about to enter the reserve force and are no longer suitable for the current human empire.

Even before the establishment of the Human Empire, Umbrella began to control the number of candidates who complete the G gland surgery and go to prehistoric planets every year, between 14,000 and 21,000.

But even so, the natural capacity of prehistoric planets has reached its limit.

If Alexia needs to maintain a certain number of titans and dinosaur giants, then artificial breeding technology must be used, otherwise, in the next fall, more than 10,000 Astartes will walk into the mountains...

When I came out, the mountain was empty.

Of course, these are trivial matters, as long as Sui Bian insists on enduring Alexia's nagging, saying "Can't you make those children restrain themselves?\

,"Or "Oh my God... I still have to use viruses to control the animals so that those kids can show their strength, it's really tiring!" and so on a series of uncomfortable words.

Although Sui Bian didn't find it annoying, the experience "level" of prehistoric planets was indeed too low, not to mention that the number of "sub-humans" living on prehistoric planets was also increasing.

All indications are that the recruits of the Astartes need a new testing ground.

There is no way, although the latest generation of Astartes needs to be exposed to the yellow dwarf (sun) for a long time to grow up to be as strong as the new Kryptonians, but the physical fitness of the new adult is already comparable to the second generation wearing Thor's Hammer. generation (incorporating nanotechnology).

Therefore, the native organisms on prehistoric planets are no longer a threat, but more like "picnic food" and "import sources" for decorations such as leather, fur, bones and teeth.

Unless the protozoa are also strengthened one by one, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the efficiency is low.

"Your Majesty..." At this time, the Red Queen, who had been silent all this time, tried to propose: "How about letting the recruits directly participate in the battle?"

But as soon as the Red Queen's words came out, the "sister" retorted: "How can there be so many wars, and more than 10,000 recruits can be sent to fight? What will the battalion headquarters and the battalion commander think? You really don't have any political sense. .”

"..." The Red Queen just shrugged, choosing to ignore the White Queen's reply.

"War..." Sui Bian seemed to have been inspired, "There are not many aliens to deal with in the current universe, but this does not mean that there are no other universes."

"Your Majesty, you mean to open the space gate to other universes for recruits?" The two artificial intelligences said in unison.

"That's right." Sui Bian moved his position so that he could lie on the golden throne, and continued to explain to the two artificial intelligence secretaries:

"And it also requires a sudden and unexpected way to confront the new cosmic aliens without any preparation, so that we can better experience the mind...

Queen Bai, you should draw up a confidentiality agreement first. Even my heirs cannot freely disclose this unique test to the outside world, as well as those who have not yet accepted the test. "
