Driven by this power, it spread like wildfire among the believers in Valedo. Although this priest used his firm faith to resist corruption and protect the village, he could not prevent the corruption of the entire world.
Firm faith can fight against invisible threats, but it may not fight against real violence.
The result was that the heretics overran the village, massacred everyone, and tortured the devout priest—perhaps the mob had kept him alive to see what was happening.
The exact details are unknown now. Soshyan can only ask the soldiers to collect the priest's body and bury it. If there is a chance in the future, his deeds will be reported to the state church, and he will become a glorious martyr.
After dealing with all this, the rain became heavier and heavier.
"It seems the corruption started very early."
After reading the recommendation letter, Soshyan probably guessed where the source of corruption was, but he needed further confirmation.
Just as he was collecting these evidences, the fleet in orbit suddenly sent a long-distance communication. Although the content was blurred due to interference, Soshyan vaguely heard the words reinforcements and battle groups.
Without needing to think too much, he expected that other battle groups would join the battle.
This is a good thing.
After all, given their size, it is too difficult to perform multiple tasks at the same time. Many things would be easier to do if they had helpers.
He then informed the other soldiers in the squad of the news.
Everyone is very excited.
After dealing with the traces of chaos in this dilapidated village, Soshyan quickly led the team to join Ustad's reconnaissance team.
Although friendly forces would arrive soon, Soshyan did not intend to wait around. After briefly surveying the terrain around the fortress, he found a breakthrough.
The Ministry of Justice's fortress does not have only one entrance. In fact, the main entrance is usually used for entering and exiting vehicles, and the side is where legal personnel come and go on a daily basis. However, there is often a hidden back door specially used for transporting prisoners.
Normally, this secret door is difficult to discover, even with the sensors of a power armor helmet, but Space Marines are not the only ones here...
"YT-001, perform a secret invasion mission. The primary goal is to open the secret door. The secondary goal is to eliminate nearby guards."
"Received, executed."
The rain continued in the evening and into the night.
The icy omnic hidden on the edge of the jungle was staring at the gray stone bunker at the end of the towering protective wall through the pouring rain, carefully counting the number of sentries within sight, and the scanner kept emitting extremely weak ticks while running. Voice.
If you don't look carefully, you will just think this place is an ordinary sentry post. In fact, there are more than a dozen such bunkers near the fortress.
But its scanners showed that there was more life inside the bunker and that the structure was stronger than others.
According to estimates, the probability that this is the target location is as high as %, which is a completely actionable standard.
Four hostile targets were standing in the open field on guard, but their lack of discipline and distraction was about to cost them their lives.
The sound of raindrops passing through the shade of heavy drooping broad leaves and falling onto the rocks was enough to cover up any suspicious noises.
The dark night only made it more invisible.
After planning its course of action, it quickly and quietly left its hiding place, moving imperceptibly amid the fine raindrops.
The water droplets kept hitting the smooth metal shell and rolled down quickly, but there was almost no sound. Only the servo inside the body made a small hissing sound, strengthening every small movement of strengthening the metal fiber muscles.
During the movement, its arms ejected sharp combat knives. This gradient metal changed its color with the surrounding environment, becoming as black as ink.
Part of the blade of this long-edged weapon is triangular, and its edge is so deadly sharp that it is forged to easily slip between an enemy's ribs and break them effortlessly.
Just like it, it was born to be a tool for killing, nothing more.
Because of the heavy rain in the dark night, the guard's visibility was reduced to less than 30 meters.
But the vision of the sacred machine is far beyond that of ordinary people. The outline of the unlucky guy who is about to become the soul under the knife has already been clearly reflected in the visual sensor of YT-001 - it will unleash the most ruthless killing because of its control. The person asked it to do so.
However, there is no sense of hatred in its cold logical circuit, everything only stems from instructions.
These people who betrayed the empire never deserved any mercy or tolerance. These people had already made their choices, and now they would pay the price for their wrong choices.
YT-001 remained incredibly quiet and stealthy for its size, sneaking behind a reinforced pillar of the parapet.
It was so close to its would-be victims that the auditory sensors could clearly distinguish their distinct voices.
Now they are just like ordinary people, complaining about their current tasks and their brainless superior commanders, but they know that they will no longer have to complain soon.
It moved slowly, like a blurry shadow, close enough for heightened senses to analyze the filthy bodies of these traitors in the mud and the stench of damp sweat that had settled deep into their bones after weeks of fighting.
YT-001 tensed and relaxed its metal fiber muscles, ensuring the Man of Steel was ready for his next move.
Then, it finally waited for the faint footsteps of the first target turning around, and immediately turned around from behind the pillar and rushed towards the target with all its strength.
The first victim died before he could even make a sound, as the Telex-type combat droid's combat knife penetrated his head from the bottom in one sharp blow.
As the traitor fell, it yanked out the blade, lowered the edge, and stabbed the second guard in the groin.
Seeing his blood gushing out, all the unlucky guy could do was scream in agony, but his voice was immediately extinguished in his throat due to being decapitated.
"who?"
Another guard seemed to have noticed something and raised the laser gun in his hand. But before he could pull the trigger and scream, a huge shadow rushed in front of him and punched him in the face.
In an instant, tons of powerful force directly smashed the guard's head into countless pieces, like a ripe fruit smashed to pieces on the ground.
"ah!"
Seeing those of the same kind who were close at hand being killed instantly, the last guard went crazy and stabbed YT-001 with a knife.
But the Telex-type commando just turned his wrist and blocked the incoming blade with the heel of his palm, and at the same time smashed his elbow into the chin of the last guard at lightning speed.
This blow removed almost half of the head, and blood and broken teeth splattered all over the side wall.
The moment the headless corpse fell, it quickly squatted down and entered a lurking position.
It all seemed like a long time, but it actually took less than ten seconds to deal with these guards.
