Chapter 311: Cutthroat
two hours later
Arthur and his four remaining comrades sneaked into the orcs' garbage dump.
Each of them was dripping with dirty, smelly, corrosive liquid, and no one could tell which smell was worse: their smell or the smell of the orc garbage dump.
Two hours ago, under John's cover, they hid in the blown-up sewage pipe, ran all the way, and finally jumped into the orcs' sewage pool.
After a difficult journey of swimming and hiding, they finally avoided the orcs' search and returned here.
The eleven of them penetrated deep into the orcs' military fortress, blew up the orcs' bridge, and in the end they were not even completely wiped out. This was an amazing achievement, but Arthur did not feel very happy.
They avoided orcs rummaging through the garbage and finally came to the empty shell of an armored vehicle.
If you look at it from the outside, it's just a human armored vehicle that's almost covered in garbage. All the useful parts on the vehicle have been removed, leaving only a rusty and rotten shell.
But standing in front of this scrapped armored vehicle, Arthur felt a faint subconscious disgust and nausea that would have been completely unnoticed if he hadn't known it in advance.
This shows that he did not make a mistake.
Arthur and his comrades climbed in through the window of the armored vehicle's shell. The inside was still full of garbage, but there was actually a little visual deception trick played here.
The garbage wall they faced looked solid, but it was actually made up of two staggered garbage walls with a "Z"-shaped aisle in the middle.
Because the garbage that makes up the garbage wall is messy and complex, so many elements will cause serious visual fatigue to people or orcs. Therefore, if they are not told in advance, almost no one will imagine that there is a hidden passage in the middle of the wall in front of them.
Arthur and his comrades came out of this hidden passage. They found the entrance with ease and walked in.
Next they walked through a long and dirty corridor, which was more like a gap inside the garbage mountain. When they passed a gap, Arthur stopped and looked up.
An Eldar warrior dressed in black hung upside down in the shadows. He was so well hidden that even though Arthur knew in advance that there was an Eldar hiding here, it still took him some time to distinguish them from the darkness.
In such a dirty and smelly environment, the Eldar warriors did not show any discomfort or disgust on their faces. Their eyes were tightly closed, as if they had truly merged into the darkness.
This Eldar warrior has two scimitars tied behind his back, which are his weapons.
If any foolish orcs really broke in here, this Eldar warrior would quietly slit their throats after they passed by.
There are five other similar Eldar warriors hiding in this long and narrow corridor. Two days ago, a group of short-sighted orcs really discovered this place. The first one to discover this hidden passage was a fart elf rummaging through garbage, and then the fart elf called some orcs to explore this mysterious place together.
A total of twenty-four orcs were killed one by one by having their throats slit by these Eldar warriors on their way forward and exploring, but this was not the terrifying part of these Eldar warriors.
Orcs have never been a silent species, they are always noisy, and these Eldar warriors, after dealing with an orc, will follow their next target and then imitate the tone of the last orc killed to talk to other orcs in order to create a false impression of calm.
Until their target turns around, and then they strike a fatal blow.
Before the leading fart spirit was finally killed, none of the orcs noticed that the "thing" following them and chatting with them was no longer their companion, and no orc realized that although their words would be responded to by their companions, the voices responding to them were becoming less and less frequent and closer.
Arthur shifted his gaze away from the Eldar warrior and continued to walk inside, while the uneasiness and nausea in his heart became more and more obvious.
After passing through the narrow crack guarded by the Eldar warriors, the space suddenly opened up. This was where they and the Eldar were hiding.
The first thing facing the narrow gap was a trench dug out from the garbage dump. The depth of the trench reached the chest of an average human being, with two machine guns and a heavy melta mounted on the side.
Although they were surrounded by the enemy, their supplies were cut off, there was no news from the Eldar and battle nuns who came to break out for help, and their morale was hit, but their spirit remained firm.
During the days when the nuns and the elves left for help, they did not sit idly by, but improved and reinforced this stronghold in the garbage dump, and continuously sent out operations like Arthur's team to carry out sabotage and guerrilla warfare inside the orc fortress.
The soldiers of Karenya did not surrender, and they would never surrender. Not dying in silence was not a spirit unique to the small group of brothers separated from Arthur, but the common belief of the entire Karenya Star Army.
Behind the first trench was a deeper pit dug later, where a team of Sisters of Silence was stationed.
Arthur's uneasiness and disgust also stem from his rejection of these soulless people at the soul level.
Judging from their military ranks, these Sisters of Silence were Arthur's superiors and also the superiors of all the trapped Astra Militarum troops. However, they never communicated with other Astra Militarum troops and were even less willing to give any orders. So after a while, the Astra Militarum troops ignored these freaks and instead elected a new temporary superior.
The locations where these Sisters of Silence were stationed were also carefully designed. The Sisters of Silence's anti-psychic aura could not only disgust humans, but also orcs, so this feature was utilized.
But if the Sister of Silence's anti-psychic aura completely spreads outside, so that the orcs passing by will feel obviously uncomfortable, then even these green-skinned creatures, no matter how stupid they are, can guess that there is something unusual hidden inside.
So, at the suggestion of Commander Shi and with the cooperation of the elves, after obtaining the consent of the Sisters of Silence, they arranged for the Sisters of Silence to be stationed here.
In this way, the anti-psychic light of the Sister of Silence can just cover the entire human hiding place and expand slightly outward.
The orcs who enter the edge of the anti-psychic aura will not feel strong uneasiness, but will subconsciously reject this place, thus reducing or even eliminating the number of times they come here to stroll.
However, the orcs have been obviously more active recently than in the past few days. Even though they are surrounded by the anti-psychic aura, there are still some particularly bold and curious orcs who break in.
Arthur did not stay too long at the place where the Sisters of Silence were stationed. He unconsciously quickened his pace to get away from these freaks. He crossed several trenches and greeted some soldiers he knew stationed in the trenches. Finally, he came to the center of the hiding place, which was also where the Eldar spacecraft was parked.
A temporary command post had been set up there, and sitting in the center of the command post was Commander Molvi, who was temporarily elected by the soldiers here.
