Chapter 570, Right in front of us

As the commander of the regiment, Martins was not the type to stand behind and command. When necessary, he would certainly lead the troops and rush to the front line, even taking on the most difficult offensive tasks.

At this moment, he was one of the dozen or so Terminators who were teleported into the enemy camp.

The sword light with green glow flickered in the enemy camp.

No unit of the Mechanicus could match him.

As the Chapter Master, Martins, who had already reached the level of Chapter Champion, experienced a duel with the Chapter Master Erso, the Wrath of Fire, and a life-and-death experience, and his strength was further enhanced.

Moreover, not only is his personal strength level strong, but his equipment has also been pushed to the extreme, using almost all of the league's cutting-edge technology.

He dodged a laser spear attack from the dragoon at close range by leaning sideways, and slashed with the green giant sword, cutting off the dragoon's long legs at the knees. He then stomped on the fallen operator to death.

During this process, the Phase Sword kept moving, and one sword clashed with the chainsaw axe and power sword held by a basilisk's multiple arms. In a moment, these high-quality weapons, which were also made by Alfonzo's Mechanicus, were cut off.

In the process, he also cut off the barrels of the two guns that the opponent was trying to point at his face, and then stabbed the sword into the head of the Basilisk mecha.

The snake monster twitched a few times and then lay completely motionless.

There is no doubt that Martins himself is the most efficient one among the Phoenix killing machines.

Not only does he have the strength and experience that is unrivaled in the entire group, but the green-glowing phase sword in his hand also plays an indispensable role.

Phase weapons are the most advanced of the many technologies that Gu Hang has extracted that can be used to make melee weapons. Its source may not even be human technology.

After Gu Hang extracted the technology for such weapons, the Alliance has not been able to achieve mass production of this type of equipment until now, and can only rely on finished black boxes to produce them at a very slow speed.

Moreover, the energy and materials required were unexpectedly much more.

To date, the Alliance has produced less than fifty phase weapons.

Most of them were equipped into the Phoenix Regiment.

When wielded by a champion like Martins, the effect it produces is amazing.

This was not the first time that Martins used this weapon, but it was the first time he applied it in actual combat.

It is unexpectedly useful.

With a sharp weapon in hand, the killing intent cannot be stopped.

He slashed at all the enemies in front of him with his sword.

When the troops of both sides were caught in a melee of close combat, there was no need for much command.

Martins' greatest role is to demonstrate his strength as much as possible and kill as many enemies as quickly as possible.

By the time he killed the twenty-fourth enemy, the battle was over.

The elite Skitarii guarding the triple arches have all been wiped out.

Even the enemies who tried to escape were caught up and killed by the Phoenix in the end.

And the Phoenix paid a heavy price for this.

Of the two hundred soldiers who took part in the battle, more than twenty were killed or wounded.

This is actually a fairly high number.

Up to now, no one can expect that the road ahead will be smooth sailing. Their whereabouts should have been discovered, and they will definitely be blocked by the Skitarii who are on high alert. They can't even choose a more cautious way of fighting, otherwise they may be able to reduce a lot of casualties after a battle, but the pressure of attack is there after all. If there is a delay in time, the opponents they will face later may increase several times, which will hinder the entire action plan and even fail completely.

This forces the Phoenixes to choose a high-risk fast break strategy, and subsequent casualties are inevitable.

But if they continue to fight at this ratio, they will lose twenty people in one battle. How many battles will they have to fight then?
Can they afford such casualties?

How many people can successfully reach the mission location?

This is a shadow hanging over Martins' heart.

But we can also look at things on the bright side.

First of all, the twenty-odd casualties of the Phoenix were not all dead, and not all of them had even lost their ability to move.

The Space Marines' ability to withstand damage is much stronger than that of mortals.

The same deep puncture wounds in the chest and abdomen, or even the puncture of important organs, are definitely fatal injuries to normal mortals. Even if it does not cause immediate death, medical intervention is necessary.

But if it were the Space Marines, not only would they not lose their ability to move, they would even be able to keep up with the troops and continue fighting after a simple treatment by the pharmacist. At most, their combat effectiveness would be slightly affected.

Such people accounted for half of the casualties.

The remaining half, about ten people, were the real losses. Six were killed and five were seriously injured and unable to move.

But even with this ratio of casualties, it is hard to say what the situation will be like later on.

As for the seriously injured, neither the Alliance nor the Phoenix have the habit of executing seriously injured teammates.

Although it can reduce pain and reduce the burden on the team at the same time, especially in an independent raid like the Phoenix, it is even more inappropriate to bring a burden.

But they brought it anyway.

At least, Martins judged that the situation had not yet become that bad.

In their team, pharmacists can quickly treat and stabilize injuries, and they also have equipment to drag and carry seriously injured people who cannot move. Just assign a team to do this.

The facts seem to confirm Martins' judgment.

For example, the Skitarii that had just been stationed at the Triple Arch were already considered the elite among them. Whether it was the smallest Death Slave Robot or the most expensive Basilisk Robot, their numbers were still small overall.

Although the Phoenixes' movements had been discovered, enemies began to appear on the road behind them and tried to block them, but those who were hastily mobilized could only be the nearest ones, not the strongest.

In fact, the Phoenix's attack speed far exceeded expectations.

Many of the defenders who were temporarily deployed did not even have time to build their positions, and were often directly attacked by the Phoenix in narrow passages or wide cabins.

No cover, no vehicles, lack of heavy firepower... Such defense is useless to the Space Marines.

They moved forward as if walking on flat ground, using multiple Terminator teams as the spearheads of the attack to pierce through the enemy's formation.

Martins always fights on the front line, and the strength he demonstrates is one of the biggest reasons why the Phoenix can move forward unswervingly.

Countless Crusader elites of all kinds have been killed by Martins' phase sword.

Leading the team, they have successfully reached the mission target location.

The protozoan room is right in front of you!
