Chapter 208 200. Multiple people, placement, tentacles
Horus swore that even in the years when he was not found by the empire, he had never seen such a ridiculous and real scene as today.
The streets were crowded with tentacles of flesh and blood. Human corpses and tentacles were pressed in layers, exuding a strong smell of corpses. The turbid blood dripped under the feet along with the pieces of flesh and eyes. If you want to move forward, you must step on it. On top of the corpse.
In the dim sky and earth, there are only corpses of flesh and blood.
However, this was not what made Horus feel the most absurd. The original body had seen battlefields that were more tragic than this, and the empty spaces were filled with the corpses of friendly warriors and enemies.
Horus looked up and looked at his brother, Mortarion. He didn't know what to say, and his words began to turn pale.
Mortarion, Mortarion, he is digging, digging on a hill-like pile of flesh and blood. The Death Guard next to him is also trying his best to assist the original body in this work, but it is clear that Mortarion can put this It was left entirely to his descendants, but the Primarch probably thought this was too slow, so Mortarion began digging himself.
Horus still remembered that just now, the Lord of Death strode into the pile of corpses and walked firmly towards the central mountain of corpses. The corpse liquid and tentacles slipped from the armor on Mortarion's feet, and Mortarion moved forward. His steps did not stop for a moment.
"Sorry, wait a moment."
After throwing these words to the Wolf Shepherd, Mortarion began his excavation work.
It is not a good idea to dig in a pile of tentacles that are always sinking and collapsing. Mortarion and the others cleared out a sufficient amount of tentacles. The slippery and sticky tentacles were thrown everywhere by the Death Guard. Horu Si wasn't sure how deep they dug, but it was certain that they weren't going to stop until they found something.
Finally, as if he had discovered something, Mortarion squatted down without a trace and thrust most of his body, together with his huge scythe, into the hole they were digging.
The Wolf God was already astonished to the extreme. Mortarion's uncharacteristic behavior shocked him. Horus originally thought that after seeing this, he would no longer be surprised, but obviously, after Mortarion turned After bringing up what he excavated, Horus discovered that his definition of "limit" was not accurate.
Mortarion carefully lifted his scythe upwards. There seemed to be something heavy hanging on the end of the scythe, which forced Mortarion to adjust his position many times to prevent himself from being part of this slippery pile. Falling over something.
Then he brought it up -
a ball of tentacles?
Mortarion smashed the large group of tentacles to the ground with a "snap", and then the Death Guards swarmed up and began to peel off the tentacles manually. Finally, a bit of bone-white armor edge leaked out, which seemed to be a hand.
Mortarion grabbed the hand directly, and then as if he wanted to shake off the tentacles attached to the armor, the original body directly picked up Hades, and then began to shake. As the tentacles peeled off, a dying man The Death Guard leaked out.
Perhaps the whole picture was too impactful, and Horus felt that he no longer knew how to think. The Wolf God tried to think carefully about the whole process, and what kind of rationality allowed him to finally see such a scene, but He was so shocked that Horus felt that he should be embarrassed, but the actions of the person involved, Mortarion, were smooth and smooth, and he did not feel anything wrong at all.
Finally, Horus decided to give up thinking about the matter for the time being. He looked at the scene and stopped trying to speak.
Mortarion laid Hades flat on the ground again, and the original body squatted down, checking Hades' condition.
Due to the heavy pressure, cracks had appeared on the Death Guard's armor, and it was obvious that some of the liquid on the tentacles had seeped into it.
Mortarion first mobilized the information in Hades' armor. He was fine, his limbs were intact, but he seemed to be unclear.
Then Mortarion carefully read the health value on Hades's armor. It was very good. He did not need to be rescued. He was just paralyzed by the venom of these tentacles. Mortarion was convinced that even if they did not come to save Hades, Si, if you wait a little longer, Hades will be able to crawl out on his own after his body has broken down the toxin.
He thought Hades was about to die. This thought had been swirling in Mortarion's mind for a long time, making the primarch feel the fear that was gradually climbing up.
Fortunately it was a false alarm.
Mortarion breathed a sigh of relief expressionlessly, and then the original body casually wiped his hands on Hades' slightly clean armor area, wiping away the venom he had just picked up from digging him. He would return it later. You have to talk to Horus without getting your hands dirty.
Of course, among them, Mortarion mocked Hades and asked him to save him even though he was still alive, and sent a bunch of distress signals, which led to Mortarion's personal emotions regardless of his image in front of Horus.
"Take him back first if he has nothing to do."
Mortarion ordered to the Death Guards, then he silently picked up the scythe and walked towards the numb Horus.
Mortarion felt that Horus should speak first. What he asked was for Mortarion to answer, but Mortarion was confident. After standing in front of Horus for three seconds, Horus still No words were spoken.
So only Mortarion could speak.
".That's what you see."
Mortarion muttered without any clue.
Horus looked at Mortarion with difficulty. Is that what he saw? Was Mortarion referring to the alien corpse that covered the sky, or the scene that Mortarion had just excavated?
Horus swallowed. The Wolf God can easily mediate various conflicts between brothers, can easily see political insincerity, and can command a victory without any effort. He is the most social and flexible among the original bodies. The tallest one can handle various emergencies well.
But now, for the first time, Horus felt that it was so difficult to speak.
Especially when standing in front of him was Mortarion with a "I told you so" expression.
Horus squeezed the words out of his throat, and he asked the most worthless question,
"Is that your Death Shroud Hades, that Technician?"
Mortarion nodded.
"He killed the alien leader by himself?"
Mortarion took two labored breaths, hissing coming from the breathing mask,
"To be precise, it was he who cooperated with the Death Guard's orbital attack to survive. "
Even with orbital attacks, this is already weird enough, right?
As if he knew the question in Horus's mind, Mortarion added,
"Hades is an untouchable, you know, my brother."
"We have all met Sister Silence, I This Death Guard has a similar physique to them." "
So he is immune to most psychic damage. I think this is why he survived."
Horus looked at the puddle in the distance Corpse, Mortarion didn't mention the alien lord that Hades killed alone.
Is this really what individual strength can achieve?
Or should I say, that "aimed at" refers to
Horus couldn't believe that Hades could do such a thing alone, but if the Death Guard had a specialized army,
"Can the strength of the Sisters of Silence reach this level? It seems that I still treat those sisters the same way. It's a bit frivolous."
Mortarion shook his head,
"Hades is stronger than them."
"He is a special case."
"A complete special case, unrepeatable, he is the only one in the Death Guard who is like this." "
And he is a special case. "This success"
Mortarion looked at the huge tentacle mountain,
"I am also surprised by this, but I believe that with Hades' ability and a little luck, this is feasible."
Mortarion An might be able to sense what Horus was thinking. Horus didn't believe that Hades could do this alone, and his thinking gradually turned into a range that Mortarion didn't want him to think about.
"We can play back the footage from his helmet after the war,"
Mortarion said sharply.
Hades will be exposed sooner or later. It is better to put all the remaining secrets of the Death Guard in a hidden corner under the light of Hades in advance.
