My Desperate Journey in 40k

The time travelers and the Astartes of the Nova Warriors looked at Lieutenant Zhou Heng who was rushing towards the church, and then they also rushed towards the chapel.

"Clap clap clap..."

Lieutenant Zhou Heng ran to the entrance of the chapel and knocked on the door, trying to tell the civilians inside that the Empire's rescue had arrived. The Astartes also stopped their hover tanks and got out. The Nova Warriors were very curious. Logically speaking, the war had been going on for so long, there shouldn't be any civilians alive here.

"Kakaka…"

In the chapel, the civilians heard the rhythmic knocking sounds. Through the observation port on the door, they saw Lieutenant Zhou Heng and the Astartes. They saw the Emperor's angels and immediately opened the door of the chapel with joy. They praised the Emperor's mercy for sending down the angels to save them.

"Praise the angels, praise the Emperor."

People opened the church doors and looked at the Emperor's angels at the door. They praised the Emperor and the Emperor's Angel of Death.

The Novavax Astartes looked at the civilians. They warily inquired about their identities and why they were in this church. By asking the Novavax Astartes, they learned why these civilians were still alive. They were a group of homeless civilians. After the war broke out, they gathered in this church. The reason they could survive in this land full of viruses and demons was entirely because of their devout belief in the God-Emperor.

"Lieutenant, this is a risky move. Contact with them will expose our actions. We are also unable to evacuate them now. Once they are captured by the enemy, the mission assigned to us by the Primarch will be over."

Edmore looked at the civilians in front of him who were cheering for seeing the Angel of Death, and said to Lieutenant Zhou Heng that he was very disgusted with contact with civilians. The Primarch ordered them to act in secret, so they must act in secret.

"They are civilians, citizens of the Empire of Man, human beings, and our duty is to protect them."

Lieutenant Zhou Heng glanced at Edmo, then said to him that he didn't like the kind of soldiers who were unkind to civilians. He knew the darkness of this era, but he would not change his mind because of the darkness of this era. He was a federal soldier and his duty was to protect humanity, no matter what time it was.

"We can't be exposed, Lieutenant Zhou Heng!"

Edmo raised his bolter and aimed at the civilians. They could not be exposed because of these civilians. Their mission was related to the safety of Ultramar.

"Put the gun down!"

Lieutenant Zhou Heng glared at Edmo and scolded him harshly.

"Kill them, they'll expose us!"

Edmo looked at Lieutenant Zhou Heng and ordered the Nova Warriors and time travelers under his leadership to raise their weapons and kill the civilians. They could not be exposed because of these civilians, and he had always been dissatisfied with Lieutenant Zhou Heng's leadership.

When the Novae Marines heard Edmor's order, except for the veterans, the other Primaris Space Marines who were newly recruited into the chapter hesitated. They were Primaris Space Marines, Astartes who had been sleeping since ten thousand years ago. The training and knowledge they had received made them take it as their duty to protect the people of the Empire. Now Edmor asked them to kill civilians, and they could not accept it for a while.

"Shh!"

Before the Nova Marines raised their weapons, the Time Travelers quickly raised their weapons, but they were not referring to the civilians, but to the Edmer. They would not kill any loyal Imperial civilians, under any circumstances.

Moreover, the reason why these civilians can survive until now is entirely due to their devout faith in the emperor.

"We are not Nova Marines."

Wang Lei looked at Edmore and said to him, they are the 21st Legion, the Astartes of the Legion, when do they need to obey a lieutenant of a mere regiment?

"Put your guns down, I am your commander."

Lieutenant Zhou Heng frowned as he looked at the two groups of Astartes that were suddenly confronting each other. He didn't like disobedient soldiers, which would cause some uncontrollable problems in the mission.

"You are only a mortal!"

Edmo finally couldn't stand this "mortal" Lieutenant Zhou Heng anymore. He had a lot of objections to this mortal commanding them, and now it was finally made public.

Lieutenant Zhou Heng couldn't help but feel angry when he heard what Edmo said. He wondered if there was something wrong with the genetically modified warriors of this era. What did they think they were after undergoing genetic and biological enhancement surgery? They were still mortals, and they were all human beings. How could you think you were a god?

A long sword instantly appeared in Lieutenant Zhou Heng's hand. He looked at Edmore and was about to execute him on the spot. Edmore also looked at Lieutenant Zhou Heng. He knew Lieutenant Zhou Heng's abilities, but he believed that those were all obtained by this mortal relying on his strange power armor. As an Astartes, he was not afraid of such a mortal who relied on external objects.

"Lieutenant, I will stay here. I will protect these civilians and will not let any enemy capture them."

Just when the situation was tense, a time traveler suddenly walked between them and blocked the angry gazes of both of them.

"it is good."

Second Lieutenant Zhou Heng looked at the time traveler and nodded. He still had great trust in these descendants of Wang Ming. They had the thoughts of normal soldiers and were eager to protect humanity and pursue technological progress (the First Engineer Company).

"let's go."

Lieutenant Zhou Heng looked at Edmo, with some anger hidden in his golden pupils. He was very angry at Edmo's behavior, but for Wang Ming's sake, he did not directly kill the soldier who disobeyed orders.

A traverser was left behind to protect the civilians, and the team continued to move forward. Although there were some conflicts within the team, the mission was still the top priority. In fact, Edmo's idea was correct. He was worried that the civilians would expose them. They were on a mission to protect the entire Ultramar and could not make any mistakes.

Lieutenant Zhou Heng was also right. His ideals as a federal soldier made him put the protection of civilians first and not allow humans to be killed.

The two men come from different eras, with different philosophies and ideas. Edmo has adapted to this dark era, while Lieutenant Zhou Heng still maintains his idea as a federal soldier to protect all human beings.

"There is still a short distance to go..."

The team approached the ruins of the hospital in a hover tank. According to the information discovered by the Oil Man operating the psychic searcher, that was where the Nurgle Cauldron was located.

"Clap clap clap!!!"

Just as the team continued to move forward, a loud explosion suddenly came from a distance. That was the direction of the hillside where the hospital ruins were located. Someone had already arrived there and was exchanging fire with the enemy.

"Let's go! Let's go support the friendly forces."

When Lieutenant Zhou Heng heard the explosion in the distance, he jumped off the hover tank and immediately rushed over there at full speed. Their friendly troops had already arrived at the attack position, so they should also support them quickly.

“This speed…”

Edmo looked at Lieutenant Zhou Heng who was rushing towards the battlefield. Lieutenant Zhou Heng disappeared in front of them almost instantly. He saw at the moment when Lieutenant Zhou Heng rushed out that Lieutenant Zhou Heng was not wearing any "power armor" when he was running. He relied entirely on his body to reach that terrifying speed.

He finally discovered that Lieutenant Zhou Heng was not a simple person. He originally thought that Lieutenant Zhou Heng was a mortal who just relied on power armor, but now he understood that this guy was also a superhuman.

"The 21st Legion has a secret."

Edmo thought that, based on Lieutenant Zhou Heng, he seemed to have discovered some secrets of the 21st Legion. He wondered whether he should tell Guilliman about these things after the battle. He needed to let his Primarch know some things about the 21st Legion.

"Walk."

Wang Lei drove the hover tank and caught up with Lieutenant Zhou Heng. As time travelers, they naturally knew what had happened. The war apostle Mathieu led a Cadia armored regiment to attack the ruins of the hospital. He was carrying out the mission of the Emperor.

The hover tanks approached the hillside, and they finally saw their target. Above the hillside, a disgusting green mist rose into the sky, and above the sky above it, a twisted warp storm was fluctuating. That was where the Nurgle Cauldron was located.

"Uh…"

In the traverser's hover tank, Iris, the Eldar prophet, suddenly took off her helmet, then covered her head and began to dry heave.

Beside her, the two Immortals were also in bad condition. They were both high-level psykers. Psykers were very sensitive to situations filled with evil power. Their psychic senses sensed Nurgle's evil power almost immediately, as if they had directly come into contact with a pile of feces. The two men, one Eldar, had expressions as if they had eaten shit. They immediately withdrew their psychic powers. Nurgle's evil power was too terrifying.

273. Chapter 270: Nurgle's Army

273.

On the hillside where the hospital ruins were located, the armored vehicles of the 4021st Armored Regiment of Cadia had already collided with the Nurgle demons. Artillery fire continued to roar, tracks crushed the bodies of Nurgle demons, and artillery fire continued to shoot from the muzzles of the armored vehicles. Behind the armored regiment, a large number of infantry troops followed the armored vehicles to launch an attack. They sang poems praising the Emperor and faced the twisted Chaos demons with their devout beliefs.

On the hillside, there is a war train that is trying hard to move up the hillside. The black smoke it spews out allows people to feel its full effort. Its tracks roll on the winding hillside, and it continues to move forward with its huge body.

"Mathieu's car."

Wang Lei looked at the war train and recognized its identity. It was the war train that Mathieu was riding on. The time travelers knew about this.

"Nova Marines, go support the friendly forces. Transmigraters and the three psykers, follow me. Let's go destroy that disgusting thing."

Lieutenant Zhou Heng looked at the battlefield on the hillside and quickly assigned tasks. Under the leadership of Edmo, who recognized Lieutenant Zhou Heng's abilities and thought he knew the secrets of the 21st Legion, the Nova Warriors carried out Lieutenant Zhou Heng's orders without objection. They drove hover tanks and rushed towards the battlefield on the hillside.

Lieutenant Zhou Heng led the time travelers to the ruins of the hospital, where they were going to destroy the Cauldron of Nurgle.

The perspective turns back to the first landing city. The battle has already broken out in this city. The overwhelming plague flies surround the entire city. Various artillery fire and virus polymers are smashed on the city's shield. The fixed-point light spear matrix in the city continues to shoot at the huge swarm of flies in the sky, evaporating one subspace creature after another.

"Why do I feel like the Nurgle bastards are throwing shit at us..."

Wang Ming stood on the city wall. He looked at the viral polymers hitting the shield and spoke to Wang Xiaofa and Hu Jin beside him.

"Uh..., Boss, you can put aside your doubts. They are just like this..."

Wang Xiaofa nodded and answered Wang Ming helplessly. The more he looked at the virus polymers colliding with the city shield, the more they looked like feces. Hu Jin even felt a little nauseous. He had just finished his meal and when he saw those things, he unconsciously associated them with food, which made him extremely sick.

"Counterattack. Let the Sun Fortress locate the source of the bombardment and have the artillery units fight back."

After hearing what Wang Xiaofa said, Wang Ming picked up the communicator and issued orders to the artillery units in the city, asking them to launch a counterattack on the enemy's artillery positions based on the orbital positioning of the "Sun Fortress".

"Look at the time. It's time to start. After the artillery destroys the enemy's artillery positions, we will start the attack. The First and Second Regiments will lead the charge to attract the enemy's main attack. Then the Third and Fifth Regiments will go behind the enemy lines through teleportation and outflank the enemy forces together with the First and Second Regiments. The Fourth Regiment will use its expertise to protect the city. Guilliman's troops will also attack with us."

Wang Ming looked at the artillery fire hitting the city's shield, holding the communicator, and quickly issued orders to each regiment. Wang Ming had six regiments that he could mobilize, and the other regiments were airdropped to various places on the surface of the planet to cause chaos to the enemy.

The six regiments were the original six regiments. Their combat experience and capabilities were fully capable of meeting Wang Ming's combat requirements. The combat mode of the 21st Corps was completely a corps mode. Their number of people, firepower and equipment were unimaginable for the war regiments of this era.

"understand!"

A uniform voice came from the communication channel. It was the voice of the other four regiment leaders. Beside Wang Ming, Wang Xiaofa and Hu Jin also answered loudly.

"Well... go get ready."

Wang Ming nodded to the two people beside him and said, Wang Xiaofa and Hu Jin saluted Wang Ming. Although the salute posture was a bit strange in their power armor, it can be seen that they have tried very hard to make their posture standard.

"Studied from Casatos?"

Wang Ming looked at their serious expressions and subconsciously returned a military salute. He knew who taught them this habit: Casatos, a non-staff officer of the legion and a time traveler who had been struggling in this universe for more than eighty years.

"Well, Boss, let's go get ready."

The two men nodded to Wang Ming, then walked down the city wall and headed towards the location where their regiment was stationed.

"It's militarized. We've developed it over the years."

Wang Ming looked at the two people who left and sighed slightly. Over the years, Casatos had helped the 21st Legion to militarize all the veterans, and those new recruits had also transformed into professional soldiers after experiencing the war.

"It's going to rain sooner than expected. The Federation's technology is mind-blowing."

Just after the two left the city wall, the sky suddenly became gloomy, dark clouds floated in the sky, it seemed that it was going to rain. Wang Ming looked at the dark clouds in the sky and smiled. He knew what those dark clouds were. They were nanorobots that were spread all over the planet's atmosphere.

They have transformed into dark clouds, ready to start artificial "rain", a heavy rain that can make the Nurgle demons cry.

"It keeps raining~"

Wang Ming hummed a song and walked down the city wall. The plan was progressing steadily, and now he just had to wait for Mortarion to appear.

"What's going on in the sky? Where's the poisonous fog?"

Not far from the First Landing City, Mortarion looked at the dark clouds in the sky, puzzled. He didn't understand why the poisonous fog in the sky suddenly disappeared and turned into dark clouds. He also felt that Nurgle's power was being weakened by something. He had to act quickly. Ku'gath had already handed the plague to him, and he could use it to corrupt the two Primarchs.

Wang Ming and Guilliman are Mortarion's targets. As for the clone of Fulgrim, it is just a replica and is completely insufficient. After corrupting Wang Ming and Guilliman, Mortarion will kill Fulgrim himself. This cloned Primarch should not appear in this world.

Mortarion gave the order to attack the First Landing City. A large number of demons came out from their previously hidden positions, with silly grins on their faces, and rushed towards the First Landing City. Along with them were a large number of Nurgle zombies and Death Guards.

In the city, the artillery units quickly received the coordinates of the enemy positions provided by the "Sun Fortress". They quickly calculated the attack position and then launched a fierce artillery attack there.

The artillery fire was roaring, and after the artillery fire eliminated the enemy artillery positions one by one, all the armored companies of the First and Second Regiments attacked. They formed an armored cluster and rushed towards the demons that were rushing towards the city. For such a dense group of demons, the tactics of the two regiments were very simple, and they could just fight head-on. They had many armored vehicles and could fight head-on with the Nurgle demons.

"Hmm..., what is that? Holy shit! Those cars we lost before!"

Li Weihua, the armored company commander of the 1st Regiment, was sitting on the command seat of a Brutal Blade, looking at the group of Nurgle demons in front of him through the observation window. He suddenly saw something very familiar, several Brutal Blades and a dozen Sikarans, as well as some Landers and Rhinos. He immediately recognized his previous command vehicle among those Nurgle demons. It was the vehicle that had been snatched away by the Death Guard before, and it actually appeared here.
