Chapter 30 Closure
"I have a way to close the rift!"
"You have a way? What can you do? You are just a Star Army soldier."
"I have this necklace my parents gave me!"
"A double-headed eagle statue? The craftsmanship is so crude that even a bone sculpture I picked up can be better looking than yours."
"Believe me, if you can throw this statue into the rift, he can close it. This is why I have the greatest hope to come all the way from the gate!"
Bennett looked at the captain of the third company and didn't know what to say. But he had no choice, didn't he? He took the ordinary statue and held it in his hand. He only felt that this thing was so light that he couldn't feel any weight.
But the next moment, he felt the majestic power of faith contained in this holy statue that he had never seen before.
He seemed to see the magnificent palace built on the entire Himalayas in front of him. On both sides of the heroic staircase leading to the Emperor's throne, countless skulls of unknown heroes were carved, housing their loyal souls. The grand hymns sung by thousands of heroic choirs and state religion zealots seemed to be right beside their ears.
The temple filled with infinite golden light illuminated Bennett's whole body, making his face under the wolf helmet shed tears of excitement.
A majestic and indescribable voice sounded in Bennett's mind, giving him a sacred mission.
Lin Fan watched Bennett fall silent after taking his holy image, and he was anxious. Just as he was about to snatch the holy image back and do it himself, Bennett moved.
"All wild wolves, escort this star army to the rift at all costs."
Long-term training and tacit understanding prevented these warriors from asking too many questions. One by one, they tacitly dropped the bolt guns that were about to run out of bullets and drew out their own melee weapons. Following the footsteps of Bennett the wolf priest, they charged towards the demon enemy in front of them.
Like an unstoppable chariot, the Space Wolves drove away all the demons in front of them. The power armor on their bodies also left irreparable wounds in the counterattack of the demons' claws and blasphemous weapons.
Bennett threw the statue to Lin Fan, signaling him to keep up with them. Lin Fan picked up his chainsaw sword and ran behind them.
The Space Wolves were like an insurmountable wall, blocking the demons outside.
500 meters.
400 meters.
300 meters.
Getting closer and closer, as long as he got a little closer, Lin Fan could throw the statue in his hand into the crack, completely seal it, and end the demon attack.
"Oh, you little cuties!"
A purple whip with barbs flew out of the crack and whipped Bennett and several Space Marines beside him.
They were whipped away by the huge force carried by the whip, and fell into the pile of demons farther away. The armor on their chests was scraped by the blasphemous barbs, revealing their chests embedded with metal fragments.
A slender purple-pink figure walked out of the crack with an exaggerated gait, an androgynous face full of joyful and crazy smiles, four hands holding long whips, rapiers, round shields and a golden wine glass, looking at the Space Wolves who were facing a great enemy with a contemptuous attitude.
The usual painting style of the Secret Keeper, this is a chess piece, the original painting is not reviewed
Lin Fan looked at Bennett and his warriors who had stood up and were fighting in the back, and he was relieved. He thought that they would be beaten to death by this whip. The quality of this demon attack was too high. If these terrible things rushed all the way from the lower level to the gate, those Astra Militarum soldiers would definitely be dead. In the rotten breath of the Great Unclean One, batches of soldiers were covered with pustules and various rotten mushrooms. Under the temptation of the Secret Keeper, they mutilated themselves and bled themselves and covered their teammates' skins.
The bloodthirsty demon of Khorne has not appeared yet, or it has already appeared but Lin Fan doesn't know it.
"For Russ and the All-Father!" The Space Wolves roared in unison and charged at the Keeper.
The Keeper's dancer-like agile figure was at ease in the siege of the Space Wolves. After each attack, he perfectly blocked the attack of the Space Wolves and drank a mouthful of blood from the luxurious golden wine cup. As if he was having fun drinking, the Keeper played with the anger of the Space Wolves.
"You stinky bitch, take my knife!" Lin Fan rushed towards the Keeper and slashed at him with the chainsaw sword in his hand.
The Keeper turned around gracefully, swung the long whip in his hand into a ring to force the Space Wolves back, and then used his rapier to block Lin Fan's attack. Lin Fan, who was bounced away, did not give up, but quickly pulled out his hand and held the gorgeous rapier.
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Lin Fan's body was covered by a layer of golden light, and the blood and dirt on his body quickly evaporated and dissipated. The light bulletproof armor on his body, which had been severely worn and scratched, so that no legion logo could be seen, began to repair under the golden light.
The rapier was broken into two pieces in Lin Fan's golden hands, and the burning golden flames rushed towards the keeper along the long sword. The keeper, who had originally looked relaxed, twitched in pain from the sudden burning flames. This pure pain even severed his connection with the great prince, making it impossible for him to get the slightest pleasure from this burning.
Golden flames spread everywhere as the Keeper of Secrets twitched and rolled, and every flame that touched the demons completely burned them to ashes.
"This is the power of the All-Father!" Seeing such a scene, the Space Wolves were in high spirits, chasing and killing the demons who were fleeing and avoiding the flames in the flames.
Lin Fan passed the Keeper of Secrets' still burning body and threw the statue in his hand into the huge crack.
The moment the statue touched the crack, the sound of pious chanting rang out throughout the passage. The chorus of praise to the Emperor and mankind suppressed the roars and whispers coming from the cracks, and a ray of light sewed the cracks together like a thread.
The crack disappeared in the light, and everything returned to calm.
The burning golden flames and demons all disappeared, leaving only shells, blood, and various traces of explosions in the huge passage. Bennett checked the injuries of the survivors. Three were seriously injured, two were killed, and if the one who was ambushed was included, there were three killed. The entire Grey Hunter team lost one-third of its strength, and half of its combat power could not be exerted. How could Bennett not be heartbroken?
After digging out Lin Fan's body from a pile of ashes, Bennett used his experience to judge the injuries on Lin Fan's body. In addition to some physical exhaustion, there were no other injuries. He could even faintly feel a sacred power flowing through Lin Fan's body.
Bennett picked up the brave guard with piety and ordered the remaining Grey Hunters seriously: "You must keep everything you see today. Later, I will apply to the Rune Priest for memory erasure. Such a secret is best protected if it is unknown."
"Understood, sir."
