Velez didn't know how long they had been in the cell.
She could only feel another impact on the hull two minutes ago. Although it was slight, it was still noticeable.
Are they reinforcements from the Red Pirates?
She could only guess this, after all, it was undoubtedly a luxury to expect reinforcements to arrive at this time.
Outside, the gates of hell seemed to have opened, and the nun could only hear the screams of unrestrained psychic energy and the roar of bolters.
After a long time, all sounds disappeared.
"Are they all dead?"
When a nun tried to press her ear against the cold metal door, the door to her cell burst open, turning her into a puddle on the wall.
Nasir Watke kicked open the cell door and got in.
His pauldrons still glowed with warp sparks, and his chest armor was crisscrossed with scorch marks and psychic claw marks.
But he survived.
"Burn you to death, heretic!"
Velez spat on him and the Sister Squad stepped forward, breathing fire at the Red Pirate Captain.
Nasir Wotek raised his power claws like a shield, deflecting the fire, then sneered and moved swiftly, decapitating one nun in the blink of an eye, and impaling another with his crackling claws. chest.
The flamethrower stuttered to a halt as the nun's head fell to the ground.
Wotek ripped his claws from the other nun's torso, causing her to fall to the ground, then pointed his claws at Velez, the tips of his claws glowing with dark energy.
"Hand over the witch!"
The red pirate roared.
Sister Anatole had the power hammer at Knox's throat, ready to smash her throat.
Velez remained motionless, staring intently at the traitor.
"She has been destined by someone else, the heretic, your former master - the emperor of mankind."
The mention of the Emperor sent the Chaos Space Marine into a rage.
"This name means nothing to me now! I have but one master, the Master of the Maelstrom! The Blood-Tacker, the Black-Hearted King, the Tyrant of New Badab."
While the Red Pirate was busy announcing that he had a new master, Velez made his move.
Beside her, the psyker struggled in Anatole's hand - the witch Jirubia Knox wanted to free herself from the nun as well as from the bridle.
Hoping that the dangerous psyker no longer wanted to be the tyrant's slave but instead a part of the Emperor's soul, Velez reached up and unfastened the bridle - and she hoped she was right.
As soon as the bridle fell to the side, the succubus began to scream.
Everything became painful.
Being so close to the witch, the nuns backed away and covered their ears, but it didn't help.
Because the witch's wail tears apart the soul and has nothing to do with material obstacles.
Both nuns fell to their knees, and Emiliana Anatole fell to the deck, dropping the power hammer.
Kirubia Knox's voice stormed over the cell, affecting even Wotek, and the red pirate reached for the psyker with crackling claws.
Black blood flowed from Wotek's nostrils, ears, and eyes. Even his teeth were stained dark red, and the blood and oil under the mechanical parts of his face boiled.
boom!
At this time, the cell door was torn apart again, and two red pirates rushed in and blocked Wotek.
But they were immediately tortured by the witch's power and trembled in place.
Taking a deep breath, Velez summoned her strength and managed to stay strong - her faith in the Emperor would protect her.
She struggled to move her arm and took the power hammer from the Sister Captain.
Velez then swung the weapon with all his strength, smashing the face of a red pirate into pieces.
The red pirate staggered back, his face covered in blood, and his mind was confused by the witch's scream.
“My faith is my shield.”
The Sister muttered something before smashing the Chaos Space Marine's head, blood splattering across her armor and all over the cell.
Then he smashed his hammer into the head of the second Chaos Space Marine.
The traitor then fell at her feet.
At this moment, she felt that her soul was about to be shattered like a piece of crystal. She felt blood flowing from her eyes to her cheeks. Her ears were also wet, obviously from the blood flowing out.
Knox's mouth opened wide, and the rows of shark-like teeth were very obvious. Screams were everywhere in the cabin, and the unbearable and crazy sound echoed in the corridors of the black ship.
At this time, the metal gauntlet with thorns was suddenly swung away from the witch's throat, causing the scream to turn into an unpleasant crunching sound, followed by choking and hissing sounds.
"It's still too young!"
The grinning Wotek threw the witch aside, surrounded by a faint light of darkness, obviously hiding some kind of anti-psionic means.
"Bitch!"
Then he reached out and knocked Velez to the ground, his face covered in blood.
The nun's conscious world gradually blurred, and the mental pain began to dissipate...
"I shall face the Emperor's judgment in shame—"
The regret of not being able to complete the mission became the only thing in her mind. When the Chaos traitor thrust his claws towards her face, she felt a little bit of relief.
"How dare you, evil beast!"
With an angry shout, the cell wall was suddenly torn apart by some huge force from the inside out.
Along with the dazzling electric light, a long red sword passed through Velez's blurred vision, cutting off the bloody and dirty claws and the arm connected to it.
Wotek let out a shrill roar and stepped back violently, while Velez slowly widened his blue eyes.
A figure covered her entire body.
It was a stalwart warrior wearing silver-grey Terminator armor. On the shoulder armor was the symbol of crossed swords. The metal eagle emblem on his chest was as dazzling as a small sun in the dark prison cell. The iron halo hanging on his backpack Below, is a brave and young face.
The other party suddenly appeared, standing between Velez and the Chaos Traitor. When he turned around, his eyes met Velez.
It only took half a second for Velez to remember these dark eyes.
The next moment, the stalwart warrior suddenly turned around and punched the Chaos traitor in the face, denting his entire face. Then, before the opponent fell back and fell to the ground, the long sword streaked across like a meteor.
There was a surprised expression on Wotek's face as his head flew high.
When the headless body hit the metal floor heavily, the huge head also fell to the ground.
Everything happens within seconds.
When the warrior reached out to Velez, the nun's brain was still shutting down.
"I am Chapter Master of the Astral Knights, Soshyan Alexei."
The nun drowsily grabbed the other person's thumb and was about to stand up, but suddenly her knees gave way and she fell forward.
Fortunately, the other party supported her with his arms in time, preventing her from falling again.
"Can you still walk on your own?"
Velez nodded, glanced at Knox, and realized that the witch had been hit hard, and she was still unconscious on the ground.
Knowing that she had not failed, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and whispered:
"The Emperor... bless you."
