The couple that Julian let go were none other than Roy and Monique, the former Lapis Lazuli who were lurking in the city under false identities.
Since the black iron leader of the Wuzhou Alliance disappeared, they have lost the ability to control the situation, and because the city entered a state of control, they were unable to leave in time, so that it has been delayed until now.
This war has nothing to do with them, and leaving as a civilian is the best choice.
"Roy, that person just recognized us."
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "I know, I remember him. He used to be an insignificant role in the Federation of Commerce. His name was Julian."
Monique said in surprise: "How do you know him so well?"
"Because he once had a subordinate named Markowitz, and later he also became Markowitz's subordinate."
So that's it.
But it doesn't matter, they are leaving anyway, and everything here has nothing to do with them.
Roy and Monique were assigned to the next evacuation convoy, which departed about half an hour later.
They squatted in the corner of the shelter, carefully covering their faces with hoods to prevent anyone from recognizing them.
After waiting for a moment, Monique whispered: "Roy, do you think this war can be won?"
"If you win, you can only win. If you lose, everyone will die."
Monique fell silent.
After a few minutes, she raised her head, glanced at Roy's expressionless face, and lowered her head again.
"Monique."
Roy suddenly spoke.
He paused for two seconds and continued: "Do you still remember the password to our safe in Rutland?"
"Remember."
"It's yours."
"What?!"
Roy repeated: "The money and antiques are yours."
Monique's voice rose a bit and asked: "What do you mean?!"
"Let's go. Take that money and go to Victoria or Colombia. It will definitely be enough to live a prosperous life. This is my gift to you."
Roy stood up and was about to walk out. Monique grabbed him and found that everyone around was looking at them. She immediately lowered her voice and said, "Are you crazy?! What time of year are you still saying these things? Do you want to go back and die?!"
Roy listened patiently to Monique's words. This old man who was used to fishing held the opponent's arm with both hands and said seriously: "Monique, maybe this war has nothing to do with us, but there is one thing. Simil is my homeland and this will never change."
"I don't remember you being so patriotic!"
"Then from now on, I am a patriot and I don't want to leave. Monique, this is my choice, so I'm sorry, you have to walk alone for the rest of the way."
Roy left without looking back, leaving Monique standing there blankly.
The old man's behavior far exceeded her expectations.
…
On the battlefield.
The charge formed by the Silver Spear Pegasus collided with the Space Marines fiercely. In an instant, they were turned upside down, and the terrifying shock wave blew away the surrounding warriors on both sides.
Ioletta was riding on horseback, slashing the head of a Space Marine with the long sword in her hand. The sharp blade left a shallow mark on the steel helmet, and sparks burst out.
"Charge! Charge!"
The low horn echoed in the air.
The Silver Spear Pegasus showed a strong ability to charge into battle. With just one charge, it tore a gap in the battle line composed of Space Marines.
If it were just this, it wouldn't shock the battlefield commander Colonel Rudolf. After all, these shining silver guys are different from the motley army, just like the Space Marines are to the auxiliary army.
The aircraft hovering in the sky finally showed its fangs. Countless airborne troops rode the strong cold wind and fell to Xiacheng District. Although there was no relevant report yet, the colonel had a feeling that these guys who fell from the sky like the World Eaters were definitely not as good as the ground. These Terrans are different!
He vaguely sensed a hint of difficulty.
What on earth are psykers doing? !
Just when the colonel was getting angry, Mason, who entered the duel field with Father Vasily, was entangled with his opponent.
Mason's black robe was filled with wind and swelled, as hard as stone. His feet left the ground and were suspended in the air.
Father Vasily turned into an angel with four wings spread out, holding a golden war spear, and pierced the psyker with golden light one after another.
"Angel, you reminded me of many things in the past. My father once had a powerful angel army. As an angel, the original body has a powerful force close to that of my father."
Mason opened his hands, and his magic was no longer limited to energy shaping. With a gentle squeeze, he shattered the golden light pierced by Father Vasily.
As the psyker gradually strengthens his power, there are more and more dark cracks around him, exuding a deep and ancient aura. If you are not careful, you will be sucked into it and be completely lost.
"Did you see it? This is subspace. Our power is endless..."
Before he finished speaking, Father Vasily saw a revolver in his hand, and pressed the hammer with his right thumb. All the golden light emitted by the angel was sucked into the black hole of the muzzle, and the light became much dimmer!
"Holy Word?!"
"If you answer correctly, there will be a reward."
boom!
The holy milky white light fell from the sky, as if it had substance, filling the duel field and completely engulfing Mason's figure!
"What's this?!"
The psykers let out shrill screams in the holy light, without any composure as before. To them, this light was tantamount to fatal injuries!
As quickly as it comes, it goes as quickly as it comes.
The Holy Word quickly disappeared, and Father Vasily, who turned into an angel, fell to the ground. The duel field was returning to reality, and he found that Mason on the opposite side was not dead yet.
The psyker's black robe was torn apart, leaving only tattered strips of cloth, and Mason's appearance changed dramatically.
His face became sharper, his teeth were exposed, his skin was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and his skin was shriveled, like...a corpse.
But he was still alive, a living corpse.
"Terran, there is no way you can kill me!"
Mason screeched.
The moment the duel field returned to reality, he rushed towards a nearby Terran, wrapped his withered limbs tightly around the opponent's body, opened his fangs and opened his mouth, and bit the target's throat!
"What kind of monster is this?!"
Father Vasily gathered a little strength, and when he wanted to stand up, Seraph landed next to him.
Seraph said coldly: "This is a mutation, he is mine."
Seraphs wielding flaming swords flew towards Mason, who screamed strangely, turned around and rushed into the darkness.
…
The colonel wielded his chainsword and slashed a Silver Spear Pegasus to a bloody pulp, but his company of Space Marines inevitably suffered casualties.
