Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

The ruler and his heirs...

Chairman, Primarch, Astarte?

Leon reacted instantly and said, "According to what you said, you and your companions sneaked in and inquired about information. Do you want to improve the possibility of cooperation by helping us humans solve the current incident?"

"It's understandable." Ina did not deny it: "We wanted to investigate the specific sacrifice steps of the Jirahani tribe and the detailed plan, and then prepare to officially appear in your field of vision."

heard.

Leon saw that Agent X-441 did not do anything, indicating that the words said by the elf in front of him should be true, but he still replied in a serious tone:

"But this act of sneaking in, let us already have a negative impression of you Weilin people...or Marr people."

After speaking, he added: "I have no right to decide on cooperation matters, but I will report what you said truthfully."

"Understood, it was our negligence and ill-consideration." Ina nodded. .

See here.

Leon also nodded lightly, and said the last question: "I want to know why your companion ran away after you entered the rainforest, and why you called everything a trap of the evil **** Pallas."

"This..." Hearing the question, Ina seemed a little hesitant.

After struggling for a moment, he explained: "Because she had already begun to become unconscious when she chased and tortured the group of Kirahani with us.

From her fragmented and logically confused speech, it was mentioned that the sacrifices were not humans, but the Kirahani, and attacking and encircling them would only lead Pallas to the world.

That's why I remind you not to continue the attack. After that... she was completely occupied by Pallas, and maybe even her soul was devoured by the evil god. "

"Well..." Leon groaned: "Otherwise, those beasts are not afraid of death, and even die urgently."

"And..." Ina said at this time: "She also mentioned that among all the goals of Pallas, it also wants to occupy and corrupt a descendant of your ruler.

Especially after we slaughtered enough sacrifices, it already has the ability to briefly step into reality. "

…

While Leon is interrogating Ina.

Harvest star in low-Earth orbit, inside the bridge of the USS Hope.

John in uniform stood by the center console, watching the star map of the frontier fortress.

The star map marked the presence of ghost-faced beasts bewitched by Pallas on the surface of eight colonized planets, including Pulton.

Five hours ago.

John took Brea's suggestion and promptly stopped the comprehensive suppression of the ghost-faced beast, and instead blocked and limited its scope of activities.

But even so, according to the statistics returned by the grass-roots officers, troops at all levels still annihilated more than 400,000 ghost-faced beasts in the encirclement and suppression operations.

Counting the tens of thousands that were dealt with scatteredly before, the total number of ghost-faced beasts on the eight colonized planets of cholera is at least one million, and the damage caused to the local area is incalculable.

is a hassle.

Yet at this moment.

John, who looked away from the holographic star map, found that the bridge was plunged into darkness, and only the center console in front of him radiated light.

What made John frown a little was that the feedback from his psionic perception was nothing unusual, and he could still perceive the crew members who were manipulating the flagship and mobilizing the entire fleet.

"Since it's a problem, how about exterminating them?"

Immediately afterwards, a female voice with a very melodious voice that penetrated the hearts of the people, spread through the bridge.

heard.

John turned his head, turned sideways, and looked at what used to be the entrance and exit of the bridge, that is to say, the source of the words.

I saw a "woman" whose appearance could be described as flawless, slowly approaching him.

The opponent is about 1.8 meters tall, with snow-white skin and waist-length blond hair, wearing a white gauze and golden armor of ancient Greek style. With a faint golden light.

However, behind the other party, there was a pair of feathers of birds with coats like colorful glaze, beautiful and unusual, and huge.

Even though she has a pair of alternative wings, her golden ratio body and perfect face make this "woman" exude the same goddess aura as Artemis.

"Woman" spread out her hands, dissipated the spear and the round shield, and continued to smile at John:

"Since those low-level cosmic ape beasts are troublesome, then exterminate them all, leaving none of them..."

However, before the words of "woman" were finished, they were interrupted by John who had rushed to "her".

Without any hesitation or hesitation, the primarch threw his right fist at the beautiful face.

"Rou~!" The fist was fierce, and it hit the "woman" on the head.

Unexpectedly, there was a crisp sound like a watermelon cracking, and the right fist didn't have any tactile feedback.

Because the right fist went straight through the head of the "woman", there was no sense of touch to indicate that "she" was not an entity, but an image or an illusion.

Then the "woman" smiled slightly, and took the initiative to dissipate her figure, blending into the darkness, and said:

"Be patient, John, you're a god...but it's your ruthlessness with your enemies that I admire."

"…"

Seeing that the physical attack was ineffective, John withdrew his right hand, stood up, ignored the other's words and closed his eyes slightly, trying to use his psionic energy to shatter the space.

Aware that John was continuously releasing his spiritual energy, the "woman" had no choice but to stop joking, and said solemnly:

"Forgot to tell you, I am the goddess of war and wisdom, Pallas, Pallas Athena, one of the twelve main gods of Olympus."

It's just that after the "woman", or the evil **** Pallas self-reported her identity, John remained indifferent, releasing his psychic energy to compete with the space created by Pallas.

And Pallas, in fact, is the goddess Pallas Athena who followed the father **** Zeus and led the army of Olympus servants into the different space.

just "she"...

No, it should be what it looks like now, and the killings it has done in Pulton before, all show that it, like Aphrodite, has been corrupted into an evil **** by another dimension.

At this time.

Pallas continued to be patient with John: "John, you are a god, and a **** of war who inherited the Spear of Fear.

Your father has been deceiving you from the beginning, and your brothers, he did not see you as children, but as tools to achieve **** of the galaxy.

Because you have lost your father's love and mother's love since you were young, you only need to give a little benefit to gain your gratitude and love.

However, he really doted on your hypocritical big brother, that guy named Robert, and Leon who thought he was superior to you...

Only by placing you in this chaotic and conflicting star area, you are clearly the most powerful and the strongest **** among all the brothers!

Don't forget, your father has been emphasizing that there is no God, but God does exist!

John, wake up, stop deceiving yourself, face up to your identity as a **** of war, commander of the Spartan Legion! Command all human beings to slaughter all aliens and capture them as cheap slaves or pets of humans!

I will always teach you and accompany you, unlike the father who saw you as a tool and sent you on various difficult and dangerous missions when you were still a minor. "

There is no "falseness" in Pallas's words, and the "sincere" is incomparable. Coupled with the soft and sweet voice, even a vaccinated and determined veteran of a hundred battles seems to be unable to resist the personal solicitation of a "goddess".

Unfortunately…

No matter how much Pallas reasoned and moved with emotion, John never opened his eyes, said half a word, and only focused on releasing his psychic energy to try to shatter the space that trapped him.

"Although I already knew this was the result, I'm very unwilling, hehe."

Pallas did not become angry, laughed at himself, and said, "Since this is the case, I have to wait for me to step into the world you are in and come and talk to you face-to-face in person.

But before that, John, you need to take a remedial class to get a clearer understanding of how mortals are different from you as a **** of war.

Remember your identity, you are no longer a mortal, but a god, destined to accept the admiration and worship of mortals. "

The voice fell.

!

John, who sensed the strangeness, suddenly opened his eyes and saw that the dark space was collapsing and collapsing on his own, showing the original appearance of the bridge, and he also saw the busy crew members.

But "Boom~---!" There was an explosion.

The flames quickly engulfed everything on the bridge.

outside the ship.

The bridge located in the upper area of ​​the USS Hope was full of fire, the portholes burst, and the alpha titanium alloy deck was twisted and deformed.

The bright light from the explosion was extremely dazzling on the back side of Harvest Star.

Although the bridge was damaged, the main body of the Hope was not severely damaged, and it still kept the same rotation speed as the Harvest Star, and there was no sign of "sinking" for the time being.

The two closest Zeus-class aircraft carriers and the four Stalwart-class frigates rushed to the surrounding area of ​​the Hope, releasing a stable stance of lavender light, acting as a temporary tug to ensure that the Hope would not suddenly lose control.

Immediately after.

The Zeus-class and Stalwart-class dispatched a large number of engineering boats and rescue boats out of the hangar, and one of the rescue boats went straight to the bridge of the Hope.

inside the cockpit.

The communication channel was extremely noisy, and it was not difficult to guess from the intermittent content that the Second Army had entered a state of emergency preparation.

The faces and expressions of the two pilots wearing airtight pressure-retaining suits under their HUD helmets have been extremely solemn.

After all, the commander-in-chief of their Second Legion, who is also the governor of the frontier fortress, is on the bridge of the USS Hope.

Even though the two pilots knew how powerful their commander was, they were in the center of the explosion without wearing power armor, and their bodies were exposed to minus 270 degrees Celsius, a vacuum environment full of radiation...

The more they thought about this, the heavier the hearts of the two pilots became.

But when they drove the rescue boat and arrived at the bridge where the fire had long dissipated and turned into a mess and a completely open state, they actually found John with a tattered uniform.

At this time, the Primarch was holding the twisted railing in his right hand. Apart from the broken uniform, his exposed skin also had some burning "black stains", and his short hair was slightly curled, but he was generally fine.

!

Witnessing this scene, the pilots immediately reported the incident and drove the rescue boat to the top of the bridge.

outside the boat.

The right hatch opened, and four medical teams in white light power armor left the rescue boat and slowly approached John through a small spout.

near.

stop.

The four medical teams worked together to transfer John into the cabin. After closing the door, the pilot continued to drive the rescue boat back towards one of the Zeus-classes.

…

Shortly after.

Inside a Zeus-class medical cabin.

John, who took off his tattered uniform and put on an oversized hospital gown, sat beside a hospital bed specially designed for Astartes, and was examined by several on-board doctors from Luna Base.

In the cabin, there are also many silent warrior guards wearing Terminator power armor.

John was still his indifferent face, his eyes were on the several holographic screens in front of him, and he read the latest information from Leon, Jerome, Byron and others.

At the same time, John also uploaded the experience just now to Queen Hong, who told him to his father.

"Sir, there is nothing unusual about your body. Your physiological function and various data are good, and you can say that you are very healthy." A doctor reported to him.

"..." John nodded silently.

Seeing this, the doctors also left with interest.

Don't ask deliberately, John, who was at the center of the explosion, actually felt that the crew members who were ignorant and dutiful had all died.

But he was safe and sound.

The difference between gods and mortals...

Pallas…

After straightening out all the clues in the past half month, and then based on the interrogation results provided by Leon, John guessed that what the fallen goddess did was indeed preparing to contact him and try to corrupt him, and even corrupt the entire Sparta. Legion.

The taste of being targeted by the evil **** is very unpleasant.

There is a kind of urge to personally lead the army to slaughter the ignorant group of ghost-faced beasts used by the evil gods, and kill everything.

However, John quickly adjusted his mood and calmed down his emotions. After all, this overly aggressive attitude would hit Pallas.

At this time.

Seeing the message reminder on the screen, John got up and left the bedside, waving his hand to signal the warrior guards to leave the medical cabin first.

There is no one else in the waiting room.

The holographic device in the cabin emerges numerous blue light spots, condensing into a real-time image of Sui Bian.

After the image was generated, John said, "Father, the true identity of the evil **** Pallas is Pallas Athena who followed Zeus into the different space 10,000 years ago."

"I read your report." Sui Bian nodded lightly and said, "Artemis is expected to arrive at the Harvest Star in four hours, when she and the Grey Knights will assist you in eradicating the corrupted ghostly beasts.

Since it wants to come to the real universe, let it come. Leon and I have also modified the destination and will arrive at Puerton in twelve hours. Before that, the report I want to hear is that you succeeded Kill Pallas. "

"I see, Father, and..." John hesitated.

"Don't worry about it." Sui Bian changed his words, did not reprimand, did not teach anything, just showed a kind demeanor, and warned:

"Nothing will affect the trust between our father and son, and I won't have doubts about you because of a little trick of the evil god, so let me go and do it."

"Yes!"
