Warhammer Inquisitor - Chapter 579
Chapter 579 Radar Station (this is from the previous chapter)
The empire has many radar stations in distant galaxies away from the main planets, and this is one of them, Sollace Checkpoint, which is located on the edge of the stormy galaxy. There are many famous planets here, such as Alicia Star, Thor Star and Armageddon and so on.
But this has nothing to do with this checkpoint, it is only in a barren rift on a barren planet, surrounded by abyss-like canyons and towering stone mountains, not even plants.
This is not a place where life can survive at all, but there is a human empire radar station team stationed here, year after year, year after year stationed here, doing boring work.
On the platform outside the radar station, the field soldier picked up the telescope and looked at the sky, and there was no change again and again. He observed the starry sky, and meteor showers slid across the sky.
“Attention, there is a meteor shower.”
“My lord, what is Nur to report?”
The site member at the checkpoint complained, he was sitting on a chair, got up bored and moved to another table, where another site member and a blind star rainer were sitting.
They are playing cards, although it is not known how the Blind Star Shower sees the cards.
“Guess what card I’m holding right now?” asked the person sitting opposite.
“J of Hearts?” The Star Rainer replied.
“Wrong, it’s spades, why did you guess wrong again? Didn’t you say that you Star Rainers can read minds?”
“I can still see through the cards!” The people who rushed over to join in the fun added, and the Star Rainer played a card, “I’m not that kind of great psyker, if I were, I wouldn’t be sent to this place. ”
“This is also true. If we were that powerful, we wouldn’t be driven here to eat the northwest wind.” The card player said, and added a card.
“Um, didn’t I say everyone should be at their posts? Look at the radar screen.” A very shy, young and only member wearing a full-body uniform and a helmet said on the side.
The members who joined the fun rolled their eyes, turned around and approached a terminal casually, “Do you know what I saw? Nothing.”
“Didn’t it say there was a meteor shower? According to regulations, we should record it and report it.”
“The Emperor! On the 5th, are you stupid when you study in a military academy? What is our place called? Meteor Shower Galaxy!” The members in front of the terminal shouted, “They are all called by their names. Why do you make a fuss when you see a meteor shower? , and won’t hit you on the head.”
“And even if it hits us, we still have a shield.” The card player said casually, and said happily that he and the Star Rainer had just gained an advantage at the card table.
“Stop sitting in front of that broken screen, we have nothing going on here.”
“yes?”
The person who walked into the radar station asked coldly, and several people stood up immediately when they saw him.
“All stand at attention! The sergeant is here!”
The four people in the station straightened up, and the site manager wearing a breastplate walked in. He was a veteran with a gray beard and scars on his face, and he walked unnaturally.
It is said that he was a battle hero and was sent to this idle position after being injured, but there are also rumors that he offended his superiors, so he was sent here, but he is a serious person.
“You don’t think the work here is important, right?” The sergeant came up and asked the one who spoke.
“No, no sergeant!” The speaking member straightens up and shouts back.
The sergeant nodded and walked in front of several people, “We are at the edge of the galaxy, any enemy who wants to attack the hive must pass through us.”
“And in the past few days Armageddon—Iron Legion will have troops coming. I don’t know if they are passing by or if there is trouble to deal with it, but I want everything here to be in order for possible inspections.”
“Understand?”
“Understand Sgt!”
“Then go back to your post.” The sergeant ordered and walked away. The four people in the radar station also dispersed and returned to their positions. The young member enthusiastically observed the screen in front of him, and beside him The person in the room muttered in a low voice, and after looking at it for a while, he quietly took out the photo from the beauty magazine and read it.
“Compared to looking at this white noise, this is better.” He looked at the girl in the book and commented.
“Meteor shower hit.” The soldiers on duty outside reported.
“Received.” The young man sitting in front of the terminal pressed the shield switch, and a shield was immediately placed above the radar station. Meteor showers fell from the sky, some chased into the valley, and some hit the shield superior.
Suddenly, one of them passed through the shield and hit the platform directly. The soldiers on duty were amazed, and just as he was about to report, he was killed by several tall figures that drilled out of the meteor.
A gunshot echoed outside.
“What’s that sound?” asked the young man.
“The sound of meteor impact.” The person watching the photo said casually, leaning on the chair with his legs crossed, and the young man also shut up, “How about the impact of the meteor shower?”
he asked, but no one answered him.
“Private Nur? Didn’t you get it?”
“Don’t bother him.”
The sound of the door opening came from below, and the sound of footsteps echoed. The young man stood up and walked over wearing a helmet, “Why are you back? Your duty time is not over yet.”
“It’s so cold outside, don’t torture him, look at this girl? It’s exciting.” The unscrupulous site member smiled and turned his head to look, and then saw the young man’s head was blown off, and he collapsed on the floor on the ground.
They were startled and stood up one after another. A tall orc rushed in and roared at them with a gun in his hand. The sergeant appeared and fired at the orc with a gun in his other hand. Saw the sword, strode forward and pierced the orc’s abdomen with a sword.
The alien cursed loudly and stepped back. Everyone in the site stood up, their faces full of panic.
“Take the gun! The Star Rainer sent a signal to warn the orcs to invade!” The sergeant roared loudly, just like the order to the machine servant, and immediately woke up the remaining two who were stunned, and they quickly took out the gun from the gun cabinet. gun.
“To whom?” asked the star rainer.
“Anyone, anyone who can hear our signal.”
The sergeant leaned out, raised his gun and fired at the bottom, and the other two station members with guns behind him also rushed over, and fired at the orcs in the corridor at the exit.
These orcs looked very different. They didn’t rush forward as usual, but hid behind the cover, and didn’t shoot indiscriminately forward.
The leader with camouflage on his face and wearing excellent tactical armor for orcs gestured to the kid next to him. The latter grabbed a grenade and threw it up. The grenade bounced from the wall to the door.
“Get out of the way!” The sergeant yelled and threw himself away, and the two people behind him reacted too slowly and were blown apart.
The orcs rushed in silently, the sergeant got up, picked up the gun and smashed the surrounding terminals, then threw away Qiang, swung the chainsword and charged at the orcs, the leader opened the chainsword with an axe, and then killed the old man The sergeant shattered.
The Star Rainer sent out nervous and confused signals. He didn’t know whether the sending was accurate or not, but he was killed afterwards, and the orcs came up and chopped off his head.
The head of the Blind Star Rainer fell to the ground, the orcs poured into the radar station, and the special warfare technical boy with a red armor on his shoulder approached the terminal.
“Boss, they’ve ruined this place, the security signal has been interrupted.”
“Can you restart?” the leader asked.
“I don’t understand these things about Xiami.”
The leader hummed, and activated the orc-style earphones on his pointed ears, “Xiami destroyed the transmitter, and they will soon find out that we have come.”
“As long as it’s fast enough.” A deep, thick and intimidating voice said.
Outside the radar station, on the edge of its planet, a gigantic shadow of the moon emerged from behind the dark side of the galaxy’s edge, with the roaring orc logo on its surface.
Below it, thousands of orcs are roaring with it.
