"Take it."
As soon as Soshiyan's words came out, Asterion, who realized that he had been fooled, immediately drew out his fighting knife, fended off the whizzing chain halberd, and tried to rush out of the door.
But Amnak's sword came from a strange angle like a snake, slashing at Asterion's left leg. The King of the Labyrinth instinctively took a step back, but the sword immediately changed its direction. From what he saw, The invisible speed stabbed and scratched the back joint of his left leg, severing the artificial tendons without damaging his flesh.
As the servo whined, the Terminator's left leg quickly lost power.
Asterion wanted to communicate to warn his guards, but found that the signal was completely blocked, and there was only white noise in the communicator.
Then, the unactivated chain saw halberd hit the back joint of his right leg hard, and the huge force forced him to bend his knees, and then he fell to the ground.
With the sound of heavy footsteps, other Terminators ran in, swarming him and pressing him to the ground.
"Soshyan! Soshyan!"
Finally, Asterion, who was knocked down, no longer had the calmness before. While struggling, he roared angrily.
"I didn't expect you to be so despicable! You are not worthy of being a Space Marine! You have disgraced the armor you are wearing! You are a liar! A poisonous snake!
You will pay for your actions today! "
"Bastard! How dare you be so arrogant at this time!"
Mark cursed and hit Asterion's helmet twice with his fist, making a clanging sound.
At this time, Faisal was also shocked. He had never expected that things would develop like this, as if his many years of experience in officialdom had become a blank sheet of paper——
However, he immediately forced himself to solve the immediate crisis immediately, because Soshyan did not seem to intend to stop there.
】
He walked up to Asterion and looked down at the leader of the Minotaur Chapter. This giant was so powerful that even three or four Terminators could hardly hold him down, but that was all.
"You still dare to resist. Now I have reason to suspect that you have fallen and become an accomplice of the Red Pirates. Even the original Asterion Chapter Leader has died and an Alpha Viper has replaced him... Take off Take off your helmet and let me see this traitor's face."
"Damn! Soshyan! How dare you! Do you know what you are doing? I will definitely kill you!"
Feisal was even more shocked when he heard this, because although Asterion was quite famous in Terra, it was said that no one had seen his face, because in his more than five hundred years of service, this legendary chapter leader had also There have been eight instances where survival was thought to be completely impossible, but in the end it always seemed to be a narrow escape. He has experienced a total of 8 situations that were considered "completely impossible to survive" in 500 years. Therefore, some people believe that his equipment and identity were inherited by his successors. The Chapter declared to the outside world "Asterion" Survived." In fact, the person under the armor has been changed a long time ago, so this person never shows his face.
Feisal hesitated for a moment, then said:
"Commander Soshyan! Please...please don't do this! You have something to say!"
But no one paid attention to him. As a mortal, he had no ability to stop the actions of a group of Astartes.
In the end, no matter how much Asterion screamed, Mark took off his helmet forcibly, revealing a bald head and a fierce face full of scars. He was gnashing his teeth and staring at Sol with a selective and devouring gaze. Shi Yang seems to be an enemy with different fates.
Soshyan just sneered.
"I thought it was so special, Special Envoy Feisal, you heard it too. He even uttered wild words about killing me. Such a stubborn villain must have fallen into the arms of the Chaos God and become a shameful traitor."
After that, he waved his hand.
"Drag them out, kill them, and disarm the Minotaur war group. If there is any resistance, they will be treated as traitors and annihilated on the spot. I will personally send a letter to Terra to explain."
"Soshyan! How dare you! You are rebelling! You are rebelling! What kind of space warriors are you playing with such intrigues! Do you dare to duel me head-on!"
When Asterion was dragged up, he roared crazily, and Mark immediately raised his fist when he saw this.
"Traitor bastard! Shut up!"
Two punches were struck, causing the opponent to vomit blood, shattered teeth and appear to be crooked.
Hearing that Soshyan was about to shoot Asterion, Feisal panicked and quickly stepped forward and waved his hand:
"Commander Soshyan, no! No!"
! In the face of a powerful enemy, we must not kill each other! And if you do this, you will be considered a rebel! "
"Huh? Is this weird?"
At this time, people outside also gathered around. Soshiyang pointed at Asterion with a puzzled face and said:
"This man brought weapons into important military areas without permission, and also threatened the lives of me, the supreme commander of the expeditionary force, and your distinguished envoy. He is not a traitor. Why did I become a traitor instead?"
As he spoke, he looked at the chapter leaders.
"Do you think this is strange?"
Looking at everyone talking, some people have already seen the clues, but the reputation of the Minotaur is so bad that no one will speak for them.
Feisal's eyes twitched. He knew that he had underestimated the supreme commander of the expeditionary force. He had already lost everything in the first battle this time.
But he's still trying to save the day.
"Perhaps... a certain attendant made a mistake."
"Okay, then send someone to investigate now. If this is the case, I will apologize immediately and let him go."
Faisal knew that since the other party dared to arrange this, there would definitely be nothing to investigate, so he changed the subject.
"Lord Soshyan, this matter is actually not that serious. There is no need to make such a big fuss. Captain Asterion has served the empire for hundreds of years and has made great achievements. He is definitely not a traitor... This Let’s treat the matter as a misunderstanding and shake hands to make peace without damaging each other’s goodwill and the honor of the Adeptus Astartes.”
Looking at the special envoy, Soshyan smiled and shook his head.
"Special envoy, this is a time of war. How can you say that the matter is not serious? What is involved here is top-secret military information. You should also understand the confidentiality system and its significance in the military. Once military secrets are leaked, the price may be high. It is the lives of thousands of soldiers! As their supreme commander, how can I not be cautious anymore? There is no trivial matter in the military affairs, but since you said so, I respect the voice of the High Lords Council, but this person must It must be vetted to make sure he is not a traitor and will not reveal military secrets."
As an old bureaucrat, how could Feisal not know what the so-called "examination" is? Most of the empire's examinations can basically be linked to torture, especially psychic interrogation.
"Commander-in-Chief, I have something to say. I am willing to vouch for Chapter Commander Asterion."
"Sir Faisal, this is not a question of guarantee or not. I can't risk the lives of the soldiers. If you really think there is something wrong with my decision, I am willing to abdicate and make way for someone better. You can arrange for a new commander to take this position." , I will immediately lead the battle group back to the home planet."
"Oh, no, you misunderstood, I...I didn't mean it..."
As he spoke, he lowered his voice.
"Commander Supreme Lord Soshyan, can you... talk privately?"
Soshyan thought for a moment and nodded.
"please."
