Chapter 274 The Weeper’s Short “Holiday”

Although Lu Mingfei knew that death was the norm in that cold universe, and even great ones like the Primarch would sometimes fall, be seriously injured and fall asleep; but when he heard that Chapter Leader Malakin Foros died in battle, he still felt a surge of emotion in his heart. A strong feeling of sadness.

His ability to become an Astartes and then a champion warrior was all possible without the guidance and support of his Chapter Master.

But soon he regained his composure and lost his sadness. Death was also a gift. The Malakin Chapter Master's mission was over and he got the long sleep he deserved.

"May the Chapter Master's loyal soul be embraced by Holy Leth and serve with him beside the Golden Throne."

Lu Mingfei quietly added his own eulogy for the deceased chapter leader. The Lamenters were both moved and a little confused by this - an Emperor's Saint who had never met before showed that he had a deep connection with the Chapter and knew everything about their situation.

"I am Catos Huggins..." Lu Mingfei took a deep breath. After saying this, he first glanced at the boy behind him, and prepared to add "friends" after it. affix;

But the boy didn't seem to care, focusing on the humanoid body in front of him... Lu Mingfei then continued, "After I died in the battle with the Tyranids on the Devlan-3 satellite, my soul came here. The world continues to serve His Majesty the Emperor."

He concealed things about his soul's journey and his home planet - this may involve His Majesty the Emperor's secret plan. His tolerance does not mean that he can tell everything without any hesitation.

Lu Mingfei felt the consternation and doubts of the former battle brothers in front of him. An "Emperor Saint" said that he was the champion warrior who died in the battle in the previous two years. This is indeed unacceptable; if it weren't for Holy Lenno Standing aside, I'm afraid they have raised their bolters and shouted angrily that this may be a conspiracy of Chaos Daemons.

The leader, Captain Klans, looked calm. He first looked at Saint Leno with questioning eyes, intending to get the answer, but the golden Saint Leno mask hid all the angel's expressions;

Then he withdrew his gaze, stood up and calmly took out the monomolecular combat knife from his belt - this size was equivalent to a short knife for a mortal; he looked at Lu Mingfei coldly, and assumed a fighting posture.

Lu Mingfei naturally saw what Captain Klans wanted to do. He swung the Jingyue sword, released its alchemy field and returned it to the original appearance of the sword with a slender blade, and also adopted a fighting posture. .

…

"Deputy Commander, can you translate what Commander Lu just said?"

Fingel, who was standing on the other side like a follower, was shocked by the development of the situation. He was also wondering whether the space battleships and these big steel can guys came from the StarCraft set. How could they be so stupid? Guala said something and suddenly the fight started?

"I don't understand that language. I've known him for so long and I've never heard him mention learning this foreign language to me."

Chu Zihang said calmly, paying full attention to the development of the matter.

One of the symbols of the Weeping Angel should come from those real "Astartes". Lu Mingfei should not have a life-and-death battle with them, not to mention that the incarnation of His Majesty the Emperor and that angel are still here. , it is impossible to sit idly by and ignore it.

The next second, the battle between the two had begun.

Although there is a significant difference in stature between Lu Mingfei and the real Astartes, the length of the net moon in his hand slightly makes up for the disadvantage, and the speed of the sword swing is as fleeting as lightning;

Although the Astartes looked bulky and slow, his movements and reaction abilities were far beyond Chu Zihang's imagination. He stood like a rock without moving a single step, and his tactical knife was like a flying butterfly. Switching back and forth between the palms of his hands, he blocked the incoming sword blade at different angles, and at the same time, every counterattack went towards the fatal part in order to kill him with one blow...

This looks like a life-and-death battle.

Chu Zihang once again felt the highly efficient killing skills that had become instinctive in his body, forged from countless life-and-death battles of blood and fire in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

He put himself into Lu Mingfei's perspective, thinking about how long he could survive in front of the Astartes with his own fighting power, and whether he had a chance of winning.

The battle didn't last long, and Klans's face changed from indifference at first, to disbelief, and finally to joy.

He stopped dancing with the tactical knife in his hand, turned to the other brothers very excitedly and said:

"The Weeper's swordsmanship doesn't lie! He is indeed Katos! Our young champion!"

Clans Fitz witnessed the past Katos rescue the child from the iron ax of the green-skinned orcs, and witnessed the child inheriting his glory and gene seeds, and growing up step by step from the battle. A champion warrior for the Weeper.

He taught all his swordsmanship to Katos, and when that familiar style reappeared in the exchange, he was able to confirm his opponent's identity.

But without giving the Astartes time to ask and give their reborn brothers a hug, the Bronze City suddenly began to tremble.

The boy seemed to have temporarily gained control of the bronze city. His palms moved in the void, as if he was controlling an invisible CNC panel.

Portals appeared from the bronze walls, and the black-armored warriors lined up on the ground took heavy steps again and began to march into the alien city.

There was also an entrance with stairs going down at the top. The Holy Angel silently walked down with his sword. Captain Krans quickly put on his battle helmet and led the remaining warrior brothers to follow Holy Lenno's steps.

Lu Mingfei subconsciously wanted to follow, but was stopped:

"Lu Mingfei, you stay."

The boy's tone was calm, like a teacher who asked a student to stay in class after school in his hometown.

"His Majesty."

Lu Mingfei immediately realized his negligence. When Sanguireno went to fight, His Majesty the Emperor should be the one to protect him.

"You seem to want to return to your war group immediately?"

The boy said calmly. He sat on the throne where Alien Norton was bound, but he stood up again after a moment, as if he was not used to it.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully.

"Why?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned, as if he didn't expect the boy to ask such a question.

The hometown that he dreamed of in the past was beautiful and peaceful, but after more than a hundred years of fighting, he found it difficult to reintegrate into the life of his hometown; just like the killing skills that had become instinctive in the body, Astartes He still habitually incorporated those thoughts and rituals into his daily life when he returned.

We want him to go to college, find a job, find women to have children like young people of the same age in his hometown, and then live his short life peacefully... Lu Mingfei once thought about such a scene, but then he learned that there were false gods and evil spirits in his hometown. After the alien, he started fighting again.

"The war group needs me now, and there are many humans in that universe who need the protection of the Astartes... My current physical age can still undergo transformation surgery. It may only take more than ten years at the earliest for me to participate in the battle again... "

The boy listened quietly to Lu Mingfei's story, and finally nodded: "Sanglis will be proud of your conduct."

But before Lu Mingfei showed joy, he said again:

"But unfortunately, I still need you to stay in this world, Lu Mingfei, with these mixed-race humans of yours."

Lu Mingfei was startled, thinking that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to completely eliminate the aliens and false gods in his hometown. Now that there is the Mother of Tears battleship and those powerful and unknown black-armored warriors, it does not take too long to achieve this result. time.

And it can also unify the planet under the emperor's command. There are still many chaotic places in his hometown that need to be rectified; Lu Mingfei has come up with dozens of ways for His Majesty the Emperor to quickly attack the top leaders of the country's political system. After all, Asta This is what I do professionally...

But when he was about to say it, he immediately realized how ridiculous his idea was: the great master of humanity in front of him, who unified Terra in the dark age of strife and launched the Great Crusade to the Galaxy, needed to do it himself. Make suggestions?

But the boy didn't say anything more, he just waited quietly. About twenty minutes later, the warriors who had previously entered the Bronze City walked out of the opened portal in an orderly queue and pace, seemingly destroying all the enemies and desecrated facilities inside.

"The crow is not too dirty. It can still be used after washing."

The boy sighed softly and looked at Lu Mingfei, "Although I know you are reluctant, but he," he pointed at Norton/Ronald Tang, who was naked and still unconscious lying on the ground not far away, "recover him. That title of 'Sergeant Alchemy' will continue to serve your legion."

"But his essence is alien." Lu Mingfei did not dare to say this in front of the boy, and could only salute to show compliance with the order.

"Don't be so absolute. Maybe it won't take long before you change your mind." The boy seemed to see through what Lu Mingfei was thinking.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, "Besides, doesn't he also really want to be a human?"

After Chu Zihang and Fingel stood there for so long, they finally had something to do.

They stepped forward and first took off a piece of their own clothing to cover Old Tang's naked body. After all, it was indecent to expose a unique and conspicuous male human body part to the air. Then they worked together to move him to where they were. Standing position... continue to stand quietly, waiting for new orders and instructions.

There are so many questions and doubts that need to be answered, but certainly not now.

The huge steel battle barge Mother of Tears descended from the sky to the ground, allowing people to clearly see the main body of the battleship with its gorgeous Gothic-style buildings, which formed a sharp contrast with the Bronze City.

The Lamenters Astartes were all very happy and excited. This was perhaps even more exciting and honorable than the fact that they had saved a large number of mortals from the aliens without suffering any losses:

Fighting alongside the legendary Holy Leno, the young champion of the Chapter is still alive and has become the Emperor's Holy One.

As for the boy's identity... the soldiers all had their suspicions, but they all chose to remain silent.

After all, apart from their genetic father, the only one who can protect Saint Lenor is the one on the Golden Throne, right?

So they had no objections and even took it upon themselves to move the heavy metal boxes from the Mother of Tears with great honor.

Lu Mingfei recognized these boxes - most of them contained artificial amniotic fluid, which together with other devices inside the boxes stored and maintained the superhuman modified organs of the Astartes.

Except for a very few organs grown from gene seeds, such as gene seed storage glands, most of the modified organs are the same as when an Astartes Chapter was created. Fertilized eggs with specific genes of the Mechanicum were implanted into the bodies of slaves. They are grown and cultured, and then removed and packaged for storage.

He looked at the boy beside him with questioning eyes, and the boy said calmly:

"You can't expect me to conjure up the gene seeds and organs needed to build a legion without any technology and equipment, right?"

Lu Mingfei lowered his head and remained silent. He understood why it was the Mother of Tears and not other combat ships such as the Dawn Reaper...

Because the Mother of Tears is the Chapter's monastery and Hall of Valor, as well as a gene seed bank and a collection of sacred objects.

He began to feel a little ashamed again - this should be caused by the rich emotions of unmodified humans; the Lamenters Chapter is now sparsely staffed and under-equipped. Not only did he not bring any help to the Chapter, but he also suffered from a lack of resources. Get resources from the war group.

"Your Majesty...how long can they stay here?"

After hesitating for a long time, Lu Mingfei asked tentatively.

"I know what you want to do, but it's meaningless, Lu Mingfei." The boy's eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's inner thoughts, "Before they leave, I will personally erase everything they have about this place. Memory, they will forget that they followed the guidance and came to this world."

"I am by no means questioning the loyalty of the Weepers. Your precious qualities honed in darkness and disaster shine among the stars; but I must not give the Chaos Gods any chance to become aware of the existence of this world. This is also Protecting your brothers from the past."

Lu Mingfei fell silent again, seeming to have become a little "willful". While His Majesty the Emperor was preparing His great plan to save mankind, here he wanted to make some seemingly unreasonable demands.

"Of course, now I still need this battleship and these soldiers to do a little experiment." The boy turned his head and looked at Lu Mingfei. The look on his face was like a soft-hearted father agreeing to his child's request to go out to play. "Until then, it's up to you where you want to take your brothers and what you want to do."

"...As long as we don't start a war."

Some readers said that the protagonist has no self-awareness...emmmm, please explain. Let’s not mention that Astartes’ spirit is also undergoing transformation (xi) during the period of body transformation (nao). It is certain that the protagonist can become a champion for more than a hundred years. It's not about self-awareness or free will... This is because of the background blessing of the Weeper. The champion of the Black Templar has already become the ultimate demon.

What's more, in front of the will of the greatest human lord in the history of the universe, obeying orders is enough. The last smart kid was named Magnus.
