Chapter 113 - Chapter 113: Retrieving Fries in the Emperor's Name

The cut steel lump slammed into the ground with a muffled thud, and the two of them tumbled from the air.

In the first moment, Zhang Ge simply made a gesture to the right.

Amilia and Zhang Ge tacitly moved to the left and right respectively. As two Melta Bombs were dropped, the linkage mechanism was mashed into a ball in the explosion and heat, and the opening and closing structure of the door was temporarily locked.

But even so, the time gained was not much; there were other entrances.

When Amilia returned to his side, the jump pack had already been torn apart by bolter rounds and lasers, and wounds penetrating the Power Armour could be seen in various gaps.

Under the former's guidance, Zhang Ge reached out and released the pack's interlocking mouth, discarding this heavy equipment aside. Then, he took the spray that Amilia had just taken out of the storage area and was now handing over.

Aiming at the gaps in each armour piece, he pressed the trigger, and a large amount of milky white foam sprayed out of the nozzle, adhering to the Power Armour gaps and wounds, and quickly solidified and congealed, temporarily reshaping its full airtightness.

Subsequently, the agent that could be automatically injected inside the armor was injected into her blood vessels as Amilia started up, and along with the pain relief effect, the wounds that were overflowing with blood were gradually blocked.

When she realized that the wound had healed to the point where it would not tear again with simple actions, she said:

"Let's go."

Zhang Ge nodded, and the two began to delve deeper into the ship at a speed slightly slower than Zhang Ge's full speed.

It wasn't that they didn't encounter obstacles along the way, but with the enemy's main force concentrated in the hall just now, the troops remaining inside were relatively scarce, and couldn't even delay the two's speed.

They advanced layer by layer, the bolter gunshots continued to ring out, leaving countless corpses along the way,

Until they crossed another flight of stairs, they had reached the highest point of the warship. Ahead was the location of the Bridge, the brain of the entire ship.

On both sides of the corridor leading to the Bridge, the external scenery could be seen through holographic projections. The burning and molten steel cast a faint orange glow, mixed with the incandescent light, reflecting the large shields of the naval Assault Squad lined up in a row.

Underneath the sets of cold, heavy armour, the cultists' gun muzzles pointed at the only entrance to the Bridge.

When that trace of afterimage appeared, the Assault Squad cultists, who had already known the speed of the two through the detection instruments, pulled the trigger almost at the same time as they appeared.

Dozens of Shotguns with concentrated trajectories rained down fatal bullets, unavoidable.

However, the two didn't intend to avoid them either.

An offensive Proximity Grenade that had been prepared in advance went to meet them from Amilia's hand.

As the two were about to meet, the Proximity Grenade exploded. The violent explosion from the inside out suddenly bulged out a strong circular shock wave, expanding outwards.

At this distance, this shock wave would naturally not pose a threat to the Assault Squad.

However, it was completely sufficient to deflect the small bullets fired by the Shotguns.

The explosion stirred up smoke and dust, and Amilia's figure suddenly broke out from it.

The firing rate of a pump-action Shotgun was about half a second per shot, which was too slow.

Her figure was only a blur in the eyes of the cultists, and she directly crashed into the front row of shield formations without dodging.

A sound of bone cracking came from under the Armoured Plate, but then the shield holders discovered that it was far from that simple, because they realized that their feet were leaving the ground.

It was actually sent flying upside down in the air by the impact.

And it wasn't just him. Everyone blocking Amilia's path was penetrated and sent flying by the simple and unstoppable impact.

Her silver hair fluttered, and the eyes between her silver locks squinted slightly. After penetrating the entire shield formation, she finally unleashed her first sword.

She bisected the cultist sergeant who had just raised his chainsword.

At this time, the cultists on both sides of the shield formation who had not been affected by the blast fired the second shot, continuing to bombard the front with the intention of killing at least one of them.

But unfortunately, as the dust was torn apart by the second round of scattered bullets, the metal bullets that continued to fly towards the entrance were distorted and compressed under two layers of pale golden film, but could not get an inch closer.

This was the Rosarius' Force Field, now condensed into a pale golden form for some reason. The simultaneous shooting from both sides didn't even touch the carapace armour, only breaking through the first layer of golden light.

Zhang Ge could only regretfully raise his gun and pull the trigger.

The bolter gunshots rang out rhythmically, and Zhang Ge's arm guided the muzzle to move from left to right shot by shot.

Faced with these fixed targets at such a close distance, the bolters didn't even intend to deviate a little to pretend, and without exception penetrated the observation windows of the large shields, and then pierced through the red goggles in front of the heavy armor helmets, drilling in from the cultists' eye sockets, and then exploding, bringing out blood flowers.

At this moment, the heavy armor that was originally enough to rival carapace armor only became a burden that slowed down their movement speed, and did not play the protective role it should have.

While Zhang Ge praised the precision of his marksmanship and felled the Assault Squad cultists one by one from left to right like an execution, Amilia had also rushed back into the shield formation.

The long sword in her hand danced, occasionally bumping shoulders and elbows among the crowd. The crushing level of physical fitness made her like an armored vehicle that was rolling over the enemy. All that was left in her wake were broken limbs and corpses flying around.

In one encounter, the originally neat shield formation was already a mess. The interception line composed of dozens of Assault Squad members did not last longer than their colleagues, and could only barely be considered to have blocked the two for a moment.

When the body of the last cultist fell, Amilia twirled her sword, shaking off the dirty blood that had stained the sword body, and Zhang Ge also replaced the last bolter gun magazine.

She did not advance immediately, but instead, after Zhang Ge came to her side, she lowered her head slightly to look at the other party and said:

"There are many enemies ahead."

Just saying many might not be accurate, so according to the results detected by the Power Armour, she thought for a moment and added:

"Two or three hundred."

"Mm."

It was about as expected. The enemy should have left about one-twentieth of their main force on the ship. Added together, there were only a little over a thousand who had appeared before. It seemed that almost all of the rest were here.

Zhang Ge continued:

"I'll be responsible for attracting fire, and you'll be responsible for decapitation."

The latter nodded in response.

Zhang Ge came to the door leading to the Bridge.

Perhaps for defensive considerations, this door was not compatible with this corridor, which could be called spacious. It was just a single door. One could imagine what kind of attack the enemy would face when trying to enter it.

However, when Zhang Ge pushed open the door, what came into view was not the countless projectiles smashing towards him.

But blindingly bright lights.

Inside the Bridge, a man dressed as a captain was in the center, but his face was no longer calm, but had a faint look of despair.

Densely distributed cultist infantry pointed their guns outside the porthole, at the source of those lights.

A dozen Valkyries slowly allowed their huge bodies to appear near the porthole.
