"Emperor guide my blade!"

"Buzz~"

Accompanied by waves of Chainsword roars, Malum Caedo quickly passed through a twisted crack in the ground.

The grotesque beast filled with Chaos Power passed by it, and Chainsword swiped past the beast's big mouth full of sharp teeth, killing the Chaos creature that looked like a giant hound.

The gushing blue blood sprayed everywhere.

After passing through the crack, there is a solid wall that is still under construction.

A group of Cultistss with imprints of Chaos Star branded on their bodies are waving whips to command a group of Slavess who can no longer be seen in human form and are transporting ammunition to a defensive bunker.

The Boltgun of Caedo has already run out of ammunition, and the Chainsword in hand is rotating very slowly.

Ever since he and nineteen Battle-Brother came to the surface via a Raider landing craft, the battle has been non-stop.

When breaking through the atmosphere, a Chaos Sorcery hit their landing craft, but fortunately the Raider type had thicker armor than the Marauder type.

When the assault boat crashed to the ground, only fourteen people were left in the twenty-man team.

Among them, the driver died in the collision.

As soon as the hatch was opened, they were attacked by a group of Rubric Marines from Thousand Sons.

Bolter shot into the cabin intensively, killing the three Battle-Brother on the outermost side on the spot.

And Rubric Marines was followed by two Thousand Sons Sorcerer waving Force Staff.

Chaos Sorcery temporarily froze the others in place.

But as a Wardens veteran, the Iron Halo behind Caedo's head is shining brightly.

That is a rare piece of technological equipment, a good thing given to him by Chief Librarian Varro·Tigurius (Varro Tigurius) when Caedo returned from his Chaos cleaning mission last time.

It can resist Chaos Sorcery and enhance its ability to resist Chaos pollution.

It was this Iron Halo that exceeded Thousand Sons Sorcerer's expectations and allowed Caedo to find an opportunity.

When the Rubric Mariness stepped forward to capture the prisoners, Caedo used Plasma Pistol to kill two Thousand Sons Sorcerers.

Then the furious Caedo began to show Battle-Brother his amazing fighting methods.

Chainsword chopped off the helmet of the nearest Rubric Marines, then dropped the overheated Plasma Pistol, grabbed the helmet of the other Rubric Marines and tore it off.

These Rubric Marines have long since died, and Rubric Sorcery of Ahriman have merged their souls with Power Armour.

And tearing off Power Armour's helmet means tearing off the head of their soul.

The dazzling Psychic Power brilliance spurted out from their Power Armour, which had been completely reduced to empty shells.

"I will erase the stain they left on Milky Way"

"As long as I have a breath left, I will remain standing! As long as I remain standing, I will fight to the end! As long as I fight to the end, I will definitely win!"

Just like that, Caedo roared all the way out and killed more than ten Thousand Sons Traitors single-handedly.

"Death is the best reward for Traitors and Heretic!"

The other Battle-Brother keeps moving forward with the inspiring roar of Caedo.

But soon they were separated in a strange earthquake.

The ground kept shaking and raising spikes, as if the earth was dividing them.

And Caedo relied on his extremely strong movements to run out of the earthquake zone, and continued to move forward, killing weird and ferocious beasts and plants along the way.

The mission this time is not to suppress or clean up, but to investigate.

Every Astartes has come to where he is now step by step.

They entered the reconnaissance company from new recruits, and then began to serve in various levels of Company.

As a Wardens veteran of the first company, not only does his combat ability far exceed that of other Company soldiers who landed together, his reconnaissance ability is definitely not weaker than that of other Battle-Brother.

A keen veteran can always notice more details that other soldiers cannot.

It is also experience that allows Caedo to break through the traps set by Thousand Sons again and again.

"There is actually a lackey of False Emperor who can come here. A Ultramarines. Hum."

"I told you those idiots playing with Psychic Power are unreliable."

Two voices accompanied by human figures sounded not far away from Caedo.

The gray and black Power Armour and Iron Warriors emblems on his body seem a bit out of place in this land full of Psychic Power twists.

"Traitors! I will plant you into the soil! Repent your sins to Emperor!"

Before he finished speaking, Caedo rushed forward quickly, and then swung the Chainsword with a somewhat slow speed and struck one of them fiercely.

Caedo's speed exceeded the expectations of the two Iron Warriors Traitors.

However, they still responded under the influence of the machine Bionic Body Implants.

One person faced Caedo and took out a Chainaxe from his side.

The other person immediately turned sideways and raised the Bolt Rifle in his hand.

Caedo flipped his hand and lifted Chainsword into the armpit of the figure in front of him in a nanosecond.

The already slow Chainsword seemed to have encountered something extremely hard, and then got stuck in it.

Fortunately, the enemy Chainaxe, whose limbs were limited, also lost the ability to swing.

Caedo wanted to use the opponent's body as a cover to force the other Traitors to be unable to shoot.

But everything didn't go as he wished.

"Bang bang bang."

Boltgun opened fire, and two rounds of Bolter hit Caedo's shoulder armor at an extremely tricky angle.

Two gaps were blown out of the thick Ceramite shoulder armor.

And Caedo took the opportunity to take out his remaining fighting Dagger, and thrust it into the enemy's arm joint in front of him.

Two consecutive heavy blows caused the opponent's arm holding Chainaxe to fall directly.

Only then did Caedo realize that this was a Bionic Limb protected by heavy armor..

Chainsword, which has insufficient energy, is stuck on the Alloy skeleton of Bionic Body because it cannot provide enough power.

It wasn't until his fighting Dagger broke the joint connection structure at the back that the opponent's arm fell down along with Chainsword.

The agile Caedo grabbed the opponent's broken arm, then leaned back to avoid the opponent's elbow, and threw Chainaxe, who was firmly grasped by Bionic Body's arm, on the opponent's head with his backhand.

The blood and brain tissue tore apart its owner's head and breastplate amid the buzz of Chainaxe.

Just when he fell, Caedo grabbed Bolt Pistol from the opponent's waist sideways, and then rolled on the ground to avoid Bolter shot by the remaining Iron Warriors.

While rolling, he shot the opponent's head off.

Bolter tore Traitors's helmet, then brought up a burst of blood mist and Ceramite fragments.

"Scum, drain your blood!"

Glancing disdainfully at the two Iron Warriors corpses that fell to the ground, Caedo stood up, took back his Chainsword, turned around and rushed into those Cultists and Mortals Menials.

He shouted Emperor's Wrath, and just relying on his body wrapped in Ceramite and fighting Dagger turned the scene into a mess.

And after reaching out to open the boxes that Mortals Menials was transporting, Caedo got what he needed most.

Ammo supplies and more weapons.
