Warhammer Inquisitor - Chapter 606

Chapter 606 Desert Pursuit

The dust mixed with the yellow sand on the Gobi danced in the air. They covered the sky and the sun, like a cloud on this barren land, but this cloud did not bring any shade, rain or anything like that. It only brings heat and a sense of suffocation when it hits your face.

Therefore, the front sight closed the window, and the glass window was already hard to be called complete, and several missing corners were filled with iron sheets, and there were still a few bullet holes that had not come and been repaired. It seemed that, It is the latest addition.

But at least, the windows can block the wind and sand outside, allowing him to see the road ahead, but in fact, this is a lie, because there is no road here.

He sat on the rickety driver’s seat, holding the steering wheel in front of him, and drove the truck in the Gobi desert under the scorching sun. The technician said that the sun had gradually set, but it didn’t Let the weather cool down a bit.

The hunter stood up from the co-pilot, he grabbed the armrest above his head, barely got up from the shaking car body, the helmet on his head hit the car roof and the car door, it faithfully protected his master’s head , after all, this truck does not have any real vertical stabilizer.

This is a local man, who knows where it came from, and what parts it picked up from a truck. According to Echo, this truck is enough to make any priest of the Mechanicus feel ashamed. .

But they need this car, and only this huge truck is enough for everyone to sit on it and drive on this barren land. After getting on the car, they take turns to drive. It requires little energy, its steering wheel turns like a grinder, and the throttle and gear knobs even need to be smashed with a gun stock to move.

The hunter was the one who drove at the beginning, and now a group of circles have been rotated, and the front sight has come to drive. The hunter has been resting on the side. The hot weather and dry air made the driving experience extraordinarily exhausting, but now, he has rested Okay, but not ready to take over truck driving.

The hunter slipped sideways between the seats, he opened the small door between the rear seats, and got in from there. The technician looked back and saw the hunter who came in. The two nodded to each other, and the hunter came to this room immediately. In the small cabin, he leaned against the wall and squatted beside the sofa bed.

This is a bed made up of seats. It’s not big, but it’s big enough for a person to lie on. It seems that it was used for practical use, but now, Yeta is lying on it.

They moved her in, and the spike in her abdomen was not pulled out rashly according to the technician’s suggestion, which prevented her from dying of bleeding or wound infection, but also prevented her from wearing the protective armor , Facing the scorching summer, maintaining moisture and body temperature is also very important, so she was carried in by several people.

“How is she?” The hunter asked the technician. First, he was here to take care of the commander. There was a trace of pain on the latter’s face. She gritted her teeth and was short of breath. From time to time, she would speak some languages ​​they could not understand.

“The situation has gradually stabilized, at least temporarily. I have adjusted the liquid additive of the blocker and extended the filtration time in the blood vessel, but this is only a stopgap measure. We must find a way as soon as possible.”

As the technician said, he used the scanner to check the location of the wound again. The purple blood vessels were beating there, expanding and flickering continuously. The hunter looked at the blood vessels with a disturbed expression. He had seen too many wounds before. After such a chaotic infection, many of his comrades-in-arms finally needed him to give them the mercy of the emperor.

The hunter doesn’t want to do it again, but if necessary, he will do it. It is also lucky for the commander. Compared with being infected by chaos and turning into those ugly things, death is nothing more than a relief.

“Does her method really work?” The hunter looked at the local girl here, she was also here, sitting on the ground next to the sofa, there was a blanket there, and she shyly blocked herself when the hunter looked over s face.

“I don’t think we have a choice. If we want to save the commander, we can only do this.” The technician said that he prepared another injection, which was filled with some kind of potion. The hunter looked at the bubbling liquid, and then He glanced at the pained Commander aside.

“Hunter, we have a new friend here.” The voice of the front sight sounded outside, and the hunter turned his head. After a moment of silence, he heard the sound of the roaring engine coming from outside. He turned around and pressed the technician’s shoulder , “Take care of the commander, no matter what happens outside, stay here.”

“Understood, good luck, brother.” The technician nodded to the hunter, and after watching him leave, he handed a leather bandage to the slave girl beside him, “Help me tighten her arm.”

The hunter got out of the cab, and with his head buried two or three times, he came to the front sight. He leaned out from behind the front sight and looked at the rear of the truck. Soon, he saw the enemies who were chasing them. The Marauders, the pale war gangs.

They drove chariots on the desert, billowing yellow sand flying all over the sky behind them, around those chariots, on the roof, inside, and on the doors of the chariots, those barbarians were holding long and short weapons, machetes, and spears , shotguns, assault rifles, and revolvers.

They kept waving those things, bursting out a local rough language, even if the hunter couldn’t understand, he knew it probably wasn’t a good word, and if they caught up, it wouldn’t be a good word.

“I’ll drive, sight, go up there.” The hunter ordered, leaning closer to the driver’s seat, the sight got up smoothly, grabbed his sniper rifle belt from the passenger seat beside him, and swung it on his back , opened the door and grabbed the edge of the roof above, struggling to climb up in the strong wind.

“Guys, someone is here. The order is very simple. Keep them as far away from us as possible.” The rear roared away, and suddenly a chariot rushing to the front was instantly blown up.

It rolled forward, and a large cloud of dust was flying in the air at the end, and then fell forward to the ground. After that, more chariots rushed from the left and right sides, and the war tribes on the roof, holding He picked up his weapon and fired in the direction of the truck. Those chaotic bullets turned into torrential rain without aiming.

On the armored body of the truck, there was a clanging sound, and the slaves in the carriage yelled in fear. Among them, Echo rushed over, and he grabbed the person in the way and pushed him aside. , Leaning against the hollow window between the carriages, he leaned out, raised his pistol and shot the driver of the chariot outside the car, his head instantly exploded into a watermelon, and the chariot lost its balance. The sand on the side rushed away and fell there.

Earlier, a machete-wielding war boy stomped on the car door, sprayed his mouth with silver paint, and leaped forward with frenzied courage. Echo raised his pistol and took aim at the leaping enemy, while he was shot in the head in mid-air, and that wasn’t Echo’s gun.

The latter looked up and saw the front sight squatting on the roof of the car. He pulled the bolt of the sniper rifle in his hand, and then pointed the muzzle of the gun at the chasing enemy behind him and fired another shot. The laser bullet accurately shot He was hit by a person carrying a rocket launcher, his head fell backwards, and the rocket on his shoulder shot into the air, flying straight to the dazzling sun.

The rocket fell down shortly after, smashing into the convoy and exploding a cloud of dust, the tanks behind them bypassed one after another, sprinting towards the truck, those faster predator tanks, from the larger ones War trucks rushed out all around, closing in even faster.

On both sides of the truck, the barrage of bullets fired backwards continued to hit the front and back, and the enemy was also firing forwards. Echo’s armor was clanged and sparks burst out, and he hid back in the car In the body, after replacing the pistol with a new magazine, he raised his head, and just in time, he saw a chariot turning from a distance and rushing to the side of the car body.

In that car, War Boy raised his shotgun and pointed it at the car. The sight was startled, and the slaves behind him screamed. The car exploded, and the deafening sound of gunfire made even the front sight wearing a helmet feel a tinnitus.

The entire upper body of the enemy in that car exploded in an instant. Not only that, the chariot behind him exploded and burst into flames. The entire body of the chariot was torn into two sections, fell down on the sand and turned into a rolling wreck, and the front sight looked backward. Go, I saw Jarick standing behind him, holding a smoking bolter in his hand.

The political commissar glanced at the front sight, then turned around, raised his gun and exploded another tank from the window on the other side. The bolt gun in his hand was full of power, “Stand up and fight back.”

He gave a brief order, pointing to the window in front of the front sight, the latter reacted immediately after being stunned for a moment, stood up and fired continuously with the pistol, the laser beam hit a motorcycle driver rushing from behind, His body fell sideways, and the motorcycle tripped backwards and tripped another motorcycle behind it, and the two cars collided, rolled and exploded on the ground.

The war boys on motorcycles roared and rushed up. In a sense, they were so similar to the green skins that it was doubtful whether they were the scouting targets of this trip, but obviously not at first. , The body of the green skin is much stronger than theirs.

A laser bullet pierced the driver’s head, and he fell to the side. The spear he held in his hand also stabbed down. The spearhead exploded instantly, blasting a piece of yellow sand on the ground, and a motorcycle behind him He jumped up all of a sudden, rushed out of the sand fog, and quickly approached the side of the truck.

On the front sight on the roof of the car, with a toothpick in his mouth, he aimed and shot calmly. The precise bullet passed between the man’s eyebrows, and another explosion fell to the ground. The front sight continued to switch targets without even looking at it. , aim, fire, shoot, explode, all in one go.

His marksmanship is extremely tense, the laser beam is constantly flashing on the roof of the car, knocking down any enemies rushing to the ground one by one, as if to pay him back, a burst of violent artillery fire hits from a distance, and they hit around the front sight On the roof of the truck, splashing a dazzling spark.

But the front sight did not move at all, he still squatted there, chewed with a toothpick in his mouth, put his eyes on the scope and took a deep breath, and tapped his fingers lightly, just like caressing a woman’s thigh, and also like a woman’s ambiguous With a groan, the muzzle bullets whizzed out, shot in the direction of the war truck, and precisely shot into the machine gunner’s bird’s nest.

The bullet passed through his head, shot out from the back of his head, and flew into the barrel of the enemy behind him who was carrying the rocket launcher. The explosion happened suddenly, and the roof of the whole truck burst into flames. It fell sideways, smashing several accompanying vehicles.

The front sight raised his eyes slightly, and suddenly a burst of explosion attracted his attention. It was on the side of the truck, and the war boy driving a motorcycle approached from a distance. He raised the blasting spear in his hand and stabbed the On the ground of the truck, an instant explosion rose there, causing the entire truck to shake.

On the other side, another motorcycle rushed over, and the same trick was repeated. The explosion caused Hunter sitting in the cab to hit his head on the ceiling, but he didn’t have time to care about the pain in his head. He held the steering wheel , Feeling the violent vibration, the hunter stuck his head out from behind the window and looked at the connection between the truck and the carriage behind, where the vibration was extremely violent.

“Echo, they blew up the connecting weight, reconnect it immediately!” Hunter ordered loudly, his voice came directly from outside the car, and with the fiery gust of wind entering Echo’s ears, he immediately got up Flipped out from behind the window, grabbed the handrails and railings outside the car body, and leaned towards the violently shaking place.

The bullets hit his surroundings, splashing a dazzling spark on the car. Echo stepped on the bar and moved forward. When he was stuck on the car and unable to fight back, a motorcycle came behind him and raised his hand. The blasting spear was aimed at Echo, but it was too late, and a laser bullet pierced the side of his head in an instant.

The driver fell backwards on the ground, and the motorcycle flew up and hit the ground and exploded. The hunter sitting in the cab held the steering wheel with one hand, and fired a pistol backwards with the other hand. His precise shot The gun hit the enemies who were close to the echo. Between the bullets flying back and forth, where did the echo come from.

He grabbed the handrail and burrowed into the gap between the car body and the car body. The loose connecting shaft vibrated up and down and hit the car body, as well as rubbed against the ground to create a dazzling spark. After passing by, he bent down and sat there, kicking his legs on the other side of the car, fixing himself in mid-air, and below him was the fast-moving sand.

Echo’s mechanical arm started maintenance work, the dazzling cutting and welding sprayed out bright flames, his back was leaning against the carriage, and he kept it steady with all his strength, his arm was hanging in the air, when suddenly a bullet shot from his After shooting past the ear, Echo raised his head and saw the war boy outside the car seam.

They drove a chariot and rushed to the side of the truck. The war boy raised his gun and aimed at Echo, but before the latter could shoot, Echo raised his gun with one hand and shot through his head with one shot. Echo The mechanical arm of the robot was also raised, and a missile protruded from the bottom of the welding gun and shot out. The mini warhead hit the car door at once, causing the chariot to explode suddenly.

Under the flickering of the flame, Echo continued to work. He completed the final welding non-stop, and all the gaps on the side of the fixed bolt from top to bottom were welded dead. Although this also made it impossible for the carriage to be removed, but At least it can’t come off now.

Echo straightened his back vigorously, and he stood up and resumed his standing posture. His legs and feet were in the air once and almost made him fall, but Echo grabbed the handrail to stabilize himself. He climbed up to the top of the car, left and right Legs on both sides, stepped up and was close to the rear window of the cab, opened it and got in.

He suddenly fell behind the hunter. The latter glanced at him, and turned his head in peace after Echo got up. He finally fired a shot and then retracted the pistol.

“We have to find a way to get rid of them!” Echo said, leaning in behind the hunter, whose eyes were looking around the surrounding desert, his eyes swept across the ground, and then jerked back, he saw a bridge , that is a stone bridge, connecting the sandy land in the deep ditch and the thin-water swamp on the other side.

The hunter slammed the steering wheel immediately without thinking, and the truck turned rapidly on the spot. The huge swinging force made it turn the front of the car in an instant, and rushed towards the direction of the bridge. It galloped on the sand like a huge animal fleeing. then pursue those predators in the sand.

The war gang chased after them, their bullets brushed past the car window, and their shot shattered the glass of the rearview mirror. The hunter just glanced at it, then slammed his palm on the gear rail and stepped on the car. On the accelerator, the truck spit out flames from the cracks around the engine in an instant.

The truck accelerated suddenly amidst the flames and roared past the stone bridge. The hunter grabbed the steering wheel and stretched out to shout back, “Blow up the bridge!”

Immediately after hearing this, the Destruction King took out a large bundle of cluster grenades from his backpack and threw them upwards. After catching those grenades in the air, the front sight pulled out all of them and threw them backwards. The grenade drew an arc from the air. The line fell on the bridge deck, and the explosion happened suddenly, and the entire bridge was blown apart in the blink of an eye.

Several chariots that didn’t have time to brake fell off the bridge, and the rest of the chasing convoy stopped at the edge of the deep ditch and the broken bridge. He also looked back at his side, “Did you get rid of them?”

“No, it’s only temporary, they will catch up.” The hunter said and sat back in the cab. He held the steering wheel and drove the truck into the “Oasis of Death” in the desert.
