This Time, It Was a Truth Override!
Regarding the question of whether or not to "cross-dress," Alvin hesitated for half a second before decisively abandoning his pride. Forget about cross-dressing; it was the "Armor of Vows"!
It possesses defensive capabilities comparable to, or even surpassing, Power Armor!
Besides... just by looking at the appearance, who, apart from Warhammer Universe, would know that this is a "woman's outfit"?
Isn't this standard European knight armor? It's so cool and stylish, not to mention the "Executioner Greatsword." Wherever he stands, who would dare say it's "women's clothing"?!
Alvin muttered, "It's not women's clothing, it's not women's clothing..."
Then, he quickly went up and took the entire set of exquisitely crafted Armor of Vows, including the Executioner's Sword, and put it in his Personal Space.
It's best not to take this out for now.
Otherwise, he couldn't imagine how Tucker, that shameless old bastard, would laugh at him if he saw it. Besides, even if Astartes saw it, it would be difficult to explain.
As for the weapons piled up in the warehouse outside, Alvin had already thought of an explanation. He could just make up any reason and get away with it. In any case, neither Astartes, nor Tucker, nor Aruman would investigate further.
Alvin wasn't considering embezzling funds for the time being.
Once he survives, he'll have a noble title to inherit, so a little bit of equipment from the Astra Militarum is naturally beneath his notice.
Alvin quickly cleaned up the traces and returned to the front line of the Forge Factory. Although the Chaos' offensive had weakened considerably, it was still under great pressure compared to the weak defense!
Alvin, who had initially been a little proud, lost that arrogance after witnessing the still brutal fighting and how it hadn't changed because of his actions.
The war continues!
The fact that Chaos suffered heavy losses from blowing up a spaceship only fueled their bloodlust!
Don't assume that destroying a spaceship will make Chaos afraid or tremble, and that its morale will never collapse.
In fact, in the Warhammer Universe, the concept Chaos "morale collapse" is rare, especially among those whose minds have been warped by Chaos and who have become complete zombies. They would never even consider the word "retreat"!
The explosion did indeed cause immense damage to Chaos.
However, they quickly regained order from the initial chaos, and under the leadership of Chaos Canister from the "Bloodskull" gang, they launched orderly waves of attacks, intending to deplete the defenders' already limited ammunition and wear down their morale and will!
The most terrifying thing in the war against Chaos is not how powerful Chaos is, but that you must always stay true to yourself and guard against the all-pervasive temptations of Chaos!
Otherwise, the brothers who fought alongside you one second might become the kin of Chaos the next!
This is the most terrifying aspect of Chaos!
Gazing at the bustling battlefield, Alvin approached the tall, imposing, and meticulous Astartes: "Ahem, Your Angel of the Emperor, I found a lot of weapons and equipment in the back warehouse!"
Lyon frowned slightly, initially not wanting to engage with this "young master," but his expression softened somewhat after hearing that the other had found weapons and equipment. "Where? Do you have any heavy weapons?"
But as soon as he asked the question, Lyon realized he was being a bit ridiculous.
According to intelligence, this "young master" always stayed in the Underhive; how could he possibly know about those weapons and equipment?
Just as he was about to send one of his combat comrades to take a look, he heard Alvin rattle off the equipment in the warehouse as if introducing himself to someone familiar with the place.
Lyon was increasingly pleasantly surprised as he listened. What they lacked most right now was heavy firepower, and they had unexpectedly found exactly what they needed!
"Great, that's wonderful!"
The commander was so agitated that he lost control and slapped Alvin on the shoulder, nearly burying him in the ground. Alvin clutched his shoulder, wincing in pain.
"Sorry, I got a little carried away." Seeing this, Lyon immediately apologized and turned to the side. "Emond, lead your squad and go with him to move the weapons!"
With the Astartes bringing out heavy firepower such as Earthshaker Cannon, Basilisk, Armored Recon Vehicle, and Sentinel Mech, the defending side, whose morale was somewhat low, immediately let out a deafening roar!
The crates of explosive bombs, Frag Grenade, Stun Grenade, Meltagun Round, and other similar weapons ensured that the Watchers' Astartes were able to replenish their ammunition in a timely manner.
May the Emperor protect you!
Looking at the ample ammunition, Lyon's confidence returned. He cocked his Bolt Rifle with a click. "Today, we will exterminate the heretics, leaving none behind!!!"
Tucker, manipulating the Earthshaker Cannon, grinned maliciously. "You Chaos scum, taste my mighty cannon!"
He was suppressed and beaten for so long; was he weaker than a cult?
No, it's because before the war, the entire Hive City's heavy firepower had been almost completely destroyed. Otherwise, how could the Cultists have charged forward? Just because they weren't afraid of death?
What a joke!
Even if you're fearless and have the strongest willpower, do you really think you can withstand a 300mm cannon?!
The defenders, who were already holding back their anger, finally found an outlet. Dozens of Earthshaker Cannon, along with Basilisk, began a dense barrage of fire at the Chaos minions!
In an instant, the cannons roared with deafening force!
Alvin finally understood the allure of artillery. And this was only a few dozen cannons; what would it be like if hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of cannons fired simultaneously?
That was so damn satisfying!!!
Artillery has always been the most captivating weapon in war!
One second they were waiting for the defenders to run out of ammunition so they could overwhelm those Astartes Chaos Canister with sheer numbers, and the next second they were met with artillery fire!
Boom boom boom boom!!!
The Earthshaker Cannon and the Basilisk were deployed at several key points in the Forge Factory, roaring towards the Chaos!
Large shells, trailing sharp whistles, plummeted to the ground!
Amidst the deafening explosion, smoke and dust billowed up. Several members of the Chaos Canister were unlucky enough to be blown into the air, their Power Armor mixed with bits of flesh, scattering everywhere!
"Where did they get those Basilisk?!"
The commander of Chaos Canister couldn't help but roar in anger.
"Is it possible... they've always had it, and they deliberately waited until we got close before they released it?" Chaos Canister, hiding in the trench with his head covered, said in a muffled voice.
"Fart!"
The commander of Chaos Canister roared, "I'm certain they didn't have this thing before! If they had artillery, how could we have broken through their lines so many times?!"
The Chaos Canister, having been scolded, was also puzzled.
Yes, if they had such artillery, even the dumbest people wouldn't wait until now to use it, right?
But if it's not like that... Chaos Canister Can shrank his neck, feeling a chill for no reason. "Captain, do you think it's possible that... that... blesses them?"
The commander of Chaos Canister Can remained silent, his eye twitching. He slapped the man on the head and roared, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Contact the leader right now and tell him we need aid!"
This mission is shrouded in mystery.
In particular, the "Blood God" specifically named them, ordering them to abduct a human named "Alvin Valshius" and guarantee his survival!
Having lived for nearly a hundred years and participated in countless wars, large and small, this was the first time he had ever heard of the Blood God giving such clear instructions; it was simply outrageous!
If it weren't for this ridiculous mission, they would have already razed the factory to the ground with the weapons on their spaceship. Why would all this have happened?
Blood God... you're going to do them a terrible disservice!
Commander Chaos Canister cursed inwardly at that bastard Piazzas for being so stupid. Didn't he know to send down a few Terminator? Didn't he see the heavy losses suffered by the ground troops?
Don't be afraid of what I'm about to tell you!
Alvin took a deep breath, looked at Lyon and Tucker, and decided to tell them the truth.
"We are Astartes, we are not afraid."
Lyon puffed out his chest proudly, staring at Alvin, ready to hear what this kid had to say this time.
From Tucker and many local Defense Force, Lyon learned a great deal about Alvin's "heroic deeds," including single-handedly killing Khorne 'Chosen of the Gods, which led to a change in his attitude.
After all, even in Astartes, people respect the heroic deeds of ordinary people!
Alvin's miraculous heroic deeds will undoubtedly be recorded in the family history so that future generations can learn from and remember them!
"That's good. What I wanted to say was..." Alvin took a breath and said seriously, "The chaos in Losel Hive was all caused by Garken Hadley!"
Who is Garken?
"Garken?!"
Astartes and Tucker reacted very differently.
But soon, after exchanging information, Lyon frowned, seemingly realizing the seriousness of the situation. "So, we have to deal with Garken to end all this?"
"That's right!"
Alvin said in a deep voice, "If we don't kill Garken, more uncontrollable harm will occur, so we must kill this bastard as soon as possible!"
His intuition told him that keeping Garken around would be a disaster!
If that bastard gets desperate and thinks there's no hope, he might awaken the sleeping Necron Dynasty, and then things will get really messy!
