Traveling through time, I'm making pancakes in Warhammer

Chapter 487 Knife and Sword

"Boom!"

Stepping into this area, the woman lowered the Morning Star Hammer on her shoulder and dropped the heavy hammer onto the nearly melted ground, with the hammer head sinking one-third into the ground.

The road she came from also turned into a winding, fire-burning passage. It was obvious that a fierce battle had broken out there, and she was the only winner.

The woman reached out and pressed the end of the hammer handle. She used the Morning Star Hammer as a walking stick and declared to all visible and invisible enemies: "That big bastard is teaching his disobedient bastard a lesson. Until they decide the outcome, this road will not work. However, we can try."

"Oh!"

Just after the woman finished speaking, the charred cocoon exploded, and as fragments flew everywhere, the roar of the Chaos Demon was also heard.

A giant demon with horns on its head that could directly poke the top of the cabin when it stood up walked out of the cocoon. The demon was completely red and steam was emitting upwards.

Its body was strangely twisted, its muscles and skin seemed to be almost liquid, hanging loosely on its bones, and many human faces grew in the melted flesh and blood, screaming and wailing.

The demon was obviously not in a good condition at this time, as there were large wounds on its body, especially on its abdomen and hands. Its arms had almost no flesh and blood, only charred bones. Its abdomen looked like a large piece of its body had been torn off by something, so that its important organs and several vertebrae were exposed.

In the Vengeance Chaos with such abundant subspace energy, any damage suffered by the demon should be recovered quickly, but in the case of this demon, it seemed that some force prevented its regeneration. The demon's flesh and blood squirmed to fill the gap, but the new granulations were burned to ashes just like the flesh and blood growth that assimilated the Vengeance Chaos.

"Roar!"

The demon roared again, the air shaking with it, and it rushed towards the woman, but was stopped before it started.

But what stops its momentum is not someone else, but itself, or the other half of its body.

The demon twitched strangely and laughed at the same time:

"Cluck, cluck, cluck..."

The laughter was like a rusty and stuck gear, spreading to every corner of the cabin without any attenuation.

Howard knew that it was the devil laughing, but while his ears received the laughter, his brain judged that the source of the sound was next to or even behind Howard.

The demon's body squirmed and its head twisted 180 degrees, but what was revealed was not the back of the demon's head, but the face of a crow.

"Gluck cluck cluck..."

The bird's beak opened and closed, making a sound as sharp as glass scratching:

"My pretty little bird, resign yourself to your fate... Struggling is futile... The dice of the gods have been cast, and you cannot stop or change them. When the dice turns to the ninth side, everything..."

But before it could finish its words, the woman appeared in front of it, and Howard did not see her move.

But this was not the case with the woman's Morning Star Hammer. Although Howard also did not see the displacement process of the Morning Star Hammer, the silver light that lit up on the Morning Star Hammer and the trail of silver light proved that it had undergone a complete spatial displacement rather than being directly transmitted from one point to another.

The Morning Star Hammer smashed towards the demon's head at a speed far beyond the demon's reaction limit. It had not yet finished speaking, but it had no time to retract it and defend itself.

The blunt head with spikes fell on the demon's head. Hammer-type heavy weapons kill enemies with kinetic energy rather than cutting injuries. The demon's body suddenly caved in, and its spine broke into pieces. The molten flesh and blood squeezed to both sides of the body, and a large amount of blood mixed with internal organs spurted out from the wound.

What is the Mysterious Step plus the Blood of Roshandar plus the Holy Slash.

"Snapped!"

Just like popping a water-filled balloon, the woman destroyed the demon's body with just one blow. The demon's flesh and blood fragments flew everywhere, and were then burned to ashes by the psychic power contained in the hammer.

The demon's unwilling screams echoed in the air. It never thought that it would be easily killed by humans. Of course, when its real name was not revealed, the woman could only destroy its body, but it would still have to pay a heavy price. Not only would its power be weakened, but even reconstructing its body would take dozens or even hundreds of years.

An unknown demon was banished with one move, but the woman showed no joy or excitement. She raised the brim of her hat and spoke with doubt:

"What are you babblein' about? Are all you bird-headed guys so long-winded?"

The woman pulled out the weapon that was deeply embedded in the ground and was about to leave, but she heard a "boom" and another wall was broken from the other side, and a golden figure rushed in.

The golden figure rolled on the ground for nearly a hundred meters before regaining his balance. Then he stabbed the weapon into the ground and retreated dozens of meters before stopping.

Obviously, this golden figure is also a Royal Guard, but unlike the Royal Guard Howard just met who can see through the dimensional wall, this Royal Guard is smaller in size.

The armor of this Guardsman was also different. The cloak on his back was golden, and the power spear in his hand had fewer decorations. Compared with the previous Guardsman, his shoulder armor was a whole circle smaller, and the wing decorations on it were replaced by feathers.

All aspects indicate that this imperial guard is a level lower than the previous imperial guard in terms of both rank and combat effectiveness.

However, this imperial guard had something that the previous one did not have, that is, he was holding a shriveled corpse in his left hand which was not holding a weapon.

The corpse in the guards' hands was shrunken and withered, as if drained of blood. Judging by the black armor the corpse wore, it was a deceased Sister of Silence.

For the Adeptus Custodes, psychic attacks are more difficult to deal with than physical attacks, and the Sisters of Silence are excellent anti-psychic units. Therefore, the Sisters of Silence may sometimes act alone, but the Sisters of Silence are always indispensable by the side of the Adeptus Custodes.

However, the Imperial Guard's behavior of carrying the body of his dead companion may not be out of so-called emotion, but more realistic considerations:

Even if the Sisters of Silence die, their suppression of psychic energy will still be effective, but will continue to weaken.

At this time, the power of Chaos on the Vengeful Spirit was already very strong, but the Empire's soldiers were having difficulty replenishing their numbers, and units like the Sisters of Silence were dying one by one.

Therefore, even if she is dead and her effects have faded, the Imperial Guards will still choose to use the body of the Sister of Silence as a tool because of its ability to suppress psychic energy.

If the situation is more extreme, the Imperial Guard will not mind tearing apart the body of the Sister of Silence and distributing it to other Imperial warriors in need.

However, this is not a blasphemy to the dead. If the dead Sister of Silence could express her attitude, she would also agree with the actions of the Guards.

Whether it is the Sisters of Silence or the Imperial Guards, they are all weapons of the Emperor. Weapons usually require careful maintenance by their owners, but there will always be a day when they will be unsheathed to kill the enemy.

When a sword is unsheathed, as long as the person holding the hilt has not given up, the sword must continue to be swung even if it is broken.
