Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

comfortable?

Behind the helmet, Nova, who had a glimpse of the silent city through the screen of the mask, couldn't help frowning slightly, and there was a hint of confusion in her indifferent expression.

Although she and the Raven Guard have not been able to directly engage in any substantive confrontation with any traitors since they passed through the vortex space gate, she can perceive that this galaxy has fallen into a stinky smell due to the influence of the forces of chaos. And rotten rage and disorder.

However, since they arrived in the Nostromo galaxy, especially after they landed in Nostromo II, they can feel at ease...

This is a bit strange.

Because the actual ruler of the Dark Sector is Konrad Koz, who is also the Primarch of the rebel Legion Night Lords.

Judging from the currently available information, the Night Lords is an extremely efficient, special operation that is good at stealth, but at the same time it is an Astartes Legion that adopts an extreme policy of repression and killing.

And the Primarch who leads this group of cruel guys is called Midnight Ghost, a monster with fair complexion, and the spokesperson of fear and tyranny.

But under the jurisdiction of such a primarch and such a legion, the people living here would actually feel safe and happy, which really surprised Nova.

It really needs to be investigated carefully.

So she restrained her exuberant curiosity, leaped straight down the nearly 30-meter-high cliff, and then when the tip of her feet touched the soil, she took advantage of the situation and made a forward roll to release all her strength.

After completing this jump, Nova quickly walked through the woods with light and soundless steps.

During this period, patrol planes would fly over her from time to time, continuously monitoring the wilderness-like countryside. Thanks to the optical camouflage and psychic shading of the latest model HES, Nova can continue to be in a ghost state , as long as she doesn't do anything too desperate, she doesn't have to worry about the possibility of being discovered.

Soon, Nova walked through the dense forest and came to an empty and extremely modern industrial area.

From here on, it is no longer deserted and deserted. There are workers who follow the curfew system and approve night shifts in the factory buildings. There are patrolling soldiers and midnight lords in the streets between the factories.

Therefore, Nova could no longer be unscrupulous, she chose to jump to the top of the factory building, and continued to go deep into the city center along the edge of the street.

While being vigilant about her surroundings, she also glanced at the abbreviated radar on the upper right corner of the mask screen, which showed that more than 20 ghost agents under her command had already surrounded the entire city with her.

all the best.

Seeing this, Nova refocused on stealth.

She came to the end of the industrial area, squatted on the edge of a factory building and observed patiently, and recorded the interval between patrols.

After finding out the rules, Nova took advantage of a team of Midnight Lords crossing the intersection and disappeared from sight, she got up and retreated to the center of the top of the factory building, then accelerated her run-up, and when she rushed to the edge again, she cooperated with the power increase of HES Make a leap with your own quality and cross the intersection in a perfect curve.

After flying nearly forty meters away, and before colliding head-on with the right wall of a giant building, Nova spread out her palms and pointed her palms at the wall.

touch.

adsorption.

At this moment, Nova is just like the superhero loved by young children in the comic stories released by the main universe. Due to accidental mutation, she has obtained the ability of certain animals, so that she can fly over the walls of the reinforced concrete urban jungle.

However, Nova is not a mutant or mutant person. In fact, she used the entomological imitation technology of HES's palms and toes to quickly climb up to the central square of the giant building.

With a firm foothold, Nova can perceive through psychic energy that this place seems to be a...residential apartment?

She originally thought that the residents of the New Human Empire lived in deep ditches, in simple board houses, and simply slept on garbage dumps. However, the Dark Star Region seemed to maintain an alternative but peaceful order through an alternative high pressure.

Next, Nova took advantage of the opportunity to enter the apartment through the central square, and she found that the corridors and corridors were clean and bright, without the darkness, damp, and dried blood stains in the corners as imagined.

This place is exactly the same as the urban apartment in the main universe sixty or seventy years ago, and the number of surveillance cameras installed here is only a lot more than that in the main universe, indicating that everything is under the watching of the midnight lord.

Nova uploaded all the information, discoveries, and guesses to Corax, who was hiding the flagship, and went to the end of the corridor, fixed her eyes on the room on the right hand side, and then performed a pulse scan. The result was a structure of two rooms and one hall. And a family of three is sitting on the sofa in the living room.

Like watching TV?

Nova turned on the monitoring function again, completely confirming her conjecture.

It turned out that after the family enjoyed a delicious and plentiful dinner, the father and son cleaned up the table, washed the dishes, and then watched a comedy movie with their mother.

The monitored content was full of laughter and discussions, and it was enjoyable.

Nova could sense a trace of worry and fear deep in the family's heart, but at this moment, joy, happiness, and positive emotions looking forward to tomorrow's life prevailed.

And she didn't notice the influence of the power of chaos, that is to say, this family, or Nostromo II, or even the residents of the entire dark star area didn't understand the different space, let alone the existence of evil gods and demons.

A renegade Primarch concealing Chaos from the sector he governs? ?

Coupled with the fact that the bodies of the patrolling soldiers and the Night Lord did not have any obvious distortion or distortion, Nova couldn't help but wonder, did Konrad Koz refuse to believe in Chaos from beginning to end?

She had just reported this conjecture, and it didn't take long for Corax's response to come through the communication: Nova, I need you, and your subordinates go to the palace-style building in the center of the city, sneak into it and try to find Kang. Radkoz, and lock his position.

Okay, leave it to me. Nova took the task without hesitation.

Also, be sure to pay attention to safety. At the end, Corax did not forget to worry about his own sister.

Don't worry. Nova replied softly.

Although she always jokes with Corax, Robert and other primarch brothers, saying that she is not false at all, she can't beat or run? Such words, but in fact, Nova is still very self-aware.

She understands the gap between herself and the original body, even if Konrad Koz is not as good as those original body brothers, she will not be so conceited that she dares to single out and assassinate the other party.

After finishing the brief conversation, Nova also ended the peeping of the family of three, and immediately returned to the platform square on the same road, crossed between the giant buildings, and wandered in the entire city.

In only about half an hour, Nova had arrived at the outer area of ​​the capital palace.

The abbreviated radar on the mask screen also showed that the subordinates had also arrived at the best position, all waiting for her orders.

Nova was not in a hurry, but looked around for observation first.

I saw that the scale of this palace is far inferior to the palace of Holy Terra, the two are far apart, and the style of this palace is relatively simple, without much ornate decoration at all.

In other words, apart from the Gothic palace in the very center, covering an area of ​​about seventy hectares, with black, dark blue and blood red walls, and a large number of stained glass windows, this area looks more like a large palace. military base.

All mortal soldiers and night lords either rested as usual or patrolled around the palace.

There are also many large-caliber ground-to-air and ground-to-orbit artillery systems deployed here, which protect the entire capital palace area tightly and impermeable.

At the same time, Nova also tried to perceive whether there was Konrad Koz here, and the result of the feedback was none, maybe it was not on this planet, or it might be deliberately hiding his spiritual energy.

Think for a moment.

Action. Nova still gave the order, because no matter what the possibility was, she needed to sneak into the palace for Corax to find out.

Yes. All the ghost agents also responded in a low voice.

View from the sky.

Nova and the ghost agents are like ghosts one by one, quietly crossing the wall, walking through the heavily guarded camp, and sneaking into the palace from multiple angles quite smoothly.

Shortly after…

Turn on pulse sweep.

Turn on motion detection again.

With silent steps, Nova walked through a spacious corridor on the fourth floor in the east of the palace, with open stained glass windows on the right hand side, and empty houses one after another on the left hand side.

The most frightening thing is that the breeze blows into the corridor along the open windows, and it will also drive the white gauze curtains hanging by the windows.

since...

Time falls...

The gauze curtain fluttered rhythmically.

At this moment, a door seemed to shake due to the breeze, making a creepy sound of squeak~!

Bang!

!

Hearing the violent movement, Nova, who was in a hidden state, turned around quickly and aimed the sniper bolt in her hand at the source of the sound.

Taking a closer look, it was the door that made the squeaking sound, which was finally driven by the breeze, and the sudden slamming caused the too violent closing movement just now.

Hoo...ha...

After finding out the reason, it made Nova's breathing involuntarily a little heavier.

Normally, she wouldn't feel nervous at all. After all, in the previous missions, the enemies she encountered didn't need to go all out. Just a thought and a release of psionic energy were enough to solve it.

Now, Nova had to be vigilant.

Obviously, her spiritual perception told her that everything was safe and there was no threat around her, so why did she always have a chill down her spine, as if a pair of eyes were staring at her from behind?

So between the spiritual perception and the sixth sense, she chose the sixth sense, and she was sure that Konrad Koz was in this capital palace!

Corax! Nova called for help as soon as the communication was turned on: Teleport to me! Quick! Konrad Koz is beside me!

Rou~!!

! ! !

Before Nova could finish her sentence, she heard the sound of the sharp claws waving downwards from her side.

Buzz!

However, Nova's own psychic energy barrier and HES' protective stance helped her resist this attack.

Boom!

But even so, she couldn't resist this immeasurable ton-level strength, and her body was even more blown away.

Boom! Uncontrollably, Nova crashed into the right wall and rolled several times in the air.

In the end, there was another bang, and Nova smashed the ground out of the shallow pit in a daze, while she lay paralyzed in the center of the shallow pit.

Om~——hmm~——!

The sudden fight naturally triggered a loud alarm, which also caused the entire capital palace to be mobilized quickly. Presumably, it would not take long for the defensive forces to surround the place.

Boom! Boom!

Before that, the guy who attacked Nova had already jumped out of the palace, made his armored body fall freely on the ground, and walked towards the shallow pit with heavy steps.

This time, I finally saw the appearance of this guy clearly.

Its armor is painted in dark blue, with details resembling human bones and decorations of human skulls. The huge body and majestic height all represent that he is a Primarch, the master of the Night Lords. Primarch Konrad Kurtz.

For some reason, apart from the one-meter difference in height, Curz's appearance is very similar to Sui Bian's sixth son, Corax.

He also has long flowing black hair, a fair complexion, and a handsome face. Even the weapon is a pair of sharp claws that flicker, but Curze's deep eyes are much more gloomy and hostile than Corax's.

Moreover, the whites of Curze's eyes were still bloodshot. It was obvious that the Primarch who chose to betray the Empire and the Emperor's father had a somewhat abnormal mental state.

When he walked to the edge of the shallow pit, he happened to see the HES working as usual, and Nova, who remained hidden, had already bent over, shook her dizzy head, and drew out the dagger with her right hand, pointing at him Just wave hard...

call out!!

Accompanied by a sharp whistling, an arc of psychic energy emanating from blue blue struck straight at Curze, who was standing still.

Fortunately, as a Primarch, Curze reacted extremely quickly, and dodged the moment Nova swung the dagger.

However, the psychic arc will not stop destroying just because it loses the target of Curz.

Boom! Boom!

I saw the psychic arc break through the palace wall, and rampage inside, tearing everything inside.

Sh... bang!!!

Finally, when the arc of spiritual energy rushed to the center of the palace, it could no longer bear it and released it, leaving only blue light between the sky and the earth, like a tactical nuclear explosion.

Huh!!! Shock waves swept around.

After the field of vision returned to normal, the aftermath subsided, and the smoke cleared, he saw that the seventy-hectare palace had been wiped out by Nova's psychic arc.

Fortunately, when Nova was attacked by Curz, she ordered all the agents to withdraw from the palace, otherwise her group of subordinates would have been killed by the psychic arc long ago.

Moreover, there is no need for Nova to continue to single out Koz in the future, because Corax and two hundred shadows have completed the teleportation.

The shadows scattered in the capital palace area in a team of four, while Corax confronted Konradkoze and protected his little sister behind him.

only……

Curz took the initiative to remove the lightning claws, spread his arms without any precautions, and showed Corax a look of letting others be slaughtered? !
