Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 79 02.0079: ‘Plague Ship’

Horatio protected Louise behind him, and with a wave of his iron hand, which was like a silver knife, he chopped off the head of the walking corpse that was rushing towards his face, as neatly as if it had been swung by a machete.

Fidio quickly suppressed the walking corpses rushing towards him with his hot-wire volley gun. This special weapon for the loyal army can be used as a suppressing machine gun, or the power can be adjusted to become a high-penetrating ray.

【+ Flamethrower! +] Horatio shouted.

He seized the gap at a safe distance, took the flamethrower from his teammates, pulled the trigger, and sprayed out blazing promethium flames into the cabin.

This specialized combustion promethium is sprayed on the deck and can burn the room for at least half an hour. Any zombie that enters will be burned into carbon by the high temperature.

But this also means that the flamethrower cannot be used on the way forward and backward, and can only be used to seal the cabin.

[These zombies seem to be attacking her hell gun, but they have not attacked her personally... Could it be that these zombies can't see Louise? ] Horatio discovered the clue.

As a time traveler, he has seen the underlying logic of Nurgle's Walking Dead.

These dead beings animated by Nurgle's psychic power have no sight, but they can keenly sense the soul fire of the living and attack where the soul fire is.

[No wonder she can survive in a plague ship. In addition to resisting poison and infection, this potion may also be able to disguise a person's soul fire. ]

If it is true as I suspected, this is an incredible invention.

This is good news anyway, at least these walkers won't pose a threat to her.

[+Damn, there suddenly was a disgusting eye on the lamp next to me! +] David Betty’s cry interrupted Horatio’s thinking.

[+These eyes are monitoring our movements, shoot them out when they see them, the noble lady is not as surprised as you+]

Horatio said, looking at the eye growing out of the wall lamp, and then shot out the disgusting sallow one eye.

[+We need to go faster, the ship plague has begun to erode the machine soul of this ship, and before long, the place where we are will become a living maze+] Louise said.

【+How could it be so fast? +] Fidio asked.

[+Because this place is close to the life-saving cabin, the plague will begin to corrode from the core of the ship, probably dozens of times faster than other decks+] Valina answered Fidio's question indifferently.

[+The life support cabin should be about four decks above us. It may take some time to get there. +] Louise said.

A battleship is like a flying hive, with complicated internal passages and many twists and turns. You will get lost if you are not careful.

The team carefully passed through the tunnels, killing the walking corpses along the way.

As they get closer to the life-support cabin, more and more big eyes grow wantonly. They are the messengers of the Father of Plague, and their terrifying gazes make the hell soldiers very uncomfortable.

[+Demolition tools, the deck isolation fire door is locked+]

[+Borrowed+] Horatio stepped forward and hit the rotating bolt with his iron hand, smashing the turntable directly to the ground.

【+Okay+】

The people in the other groups looked at each other in shock as they looked at the heavy turntable that was being dismantled with bare hands.

Horatio walked onto the upper deck first and stepped on something round.

He raised his feet and looked at it. It was an explosive shell.

[+I think the nuns may have walked this journey+] Horatio looked forward and saw bloody corpses scattered on the deck.

Through damage analysis, there were both .66 explosive shells and chainsword scars.

[+ I hope they are okay, where is the place ahead? +] Louise asked.

[+The in-ship magnetic rail train can theoretically take us right below the life-support module+]

The team quickly killed the walking zombies wandering nearby and boarded a magnetic rail train. Because the doors were locked, there were no zombies pouring into the car.

Snap!

As Horatio opened the middle door with a punch, the hell soldiers quickly boarded the car.

[+Ledos, you drive, others are on alert+]

The first power-on test of the train was successful, and the magnetic rail train moved forward slowly.

As the train moved forward, they saw many horrific tragedies.

The tracks were littered with the crushed corpses of crew members. These people did not transform into corpses. To be precise, the corpses were so crushed that they could not even transform into zombies.

[+God-Emperor, may these souls be saved+] Horatio could hear David Betty’s teeth chattering.

[+When the plague first broke out, this place must have been crowded with people. Many people were vying for parking spaces and even blocked the movement of the magnetic rail train+] Louise said while looking at the corpse crushed into pulp under the car.

They also saw a gate that blocked countless zombies, and countless pairs of ferocious withered hands covered with herpes stretched out from the gate. These crew members who were blocked from the gate were ruthlessly abandoned and allowed to be corrupted by the plague.

[+These damn people+] In the channel, Valina cursed: [+They shot the ship’s political commissar! +]

Horatio looked in her direction and saw a red hat that had fallen on the platform. Following the blood stains, he saw the bloody corpse hanging on the platform sign with its eyes and tongue gouged out.

Only half of the body of the dead political commissar was left. It was like this after being beaten by shotguns. Next to it were the corpses of a group of killed armed forces sailors. Their purity marks were torn off, and there were broken sheepskins with prayers written on them. The paper was randomly thrown and trampled in the filthy, sticky blood.

Horatio can imagine the tragedy here:

The plague spread from the lower decks, and thousands of contract servants turned into zombies and attacked the crew who had been bossing them around.

Because the incident happened too suddenly and quickly, the captain's emergency control order failed to reach the middle and lower decks, and there was chaos here. The political commissar personally rushed to the transportation hub with the armed forces to try to stop the crew from fleeing. He pulled down the gate and asked the crew to stop the zombies at all costs, and began to rectify the order of the station.

But soon, he and his men were killed by the angry crew who were panicking and had no choice. The crew scrambled to climb and even blocked the train, and then were crushed into bloody mud.

[+Team leader, look there+]

Horatio patted Louise on the shoulder, pointed to the big Nurgle mark on the wall and said: [+Zombies don't draw these blasphemous marks. The crew members who failed to evacuate in time may have rebelled+]

[+The current situation may be more serious than before we set out+]

The train entered the dark tunnel, and she switched to the action channel and said: [+Everyone stay alert, there may be corrupted sailors among our enemies+]

The situation has changed, and Horatio is very worried.

‘+Activation: Omen Fragment+’

‘+Energy: 5/7+’

‘+Psychic: 6/7+’

‘+Corruption: 1/7+’

‘+Soul Fire: 34/40+’

He saw the ambush, a large number of imprisoned zombies, and... a magnetic rail train rushing in the opposite direction on the same track.

[+We must abandon the train immediately! Now! +] Horatio raised his gun and smashed a row of carriage windows.

[+What? +】Faced with Horatio's sudden reaction, Louise was somewhat confused.

The maglev train also braked at this time.

[+Ledos, what happened+] Louise asked.

[+There's a train blocking our way ahead... Damn it! A train is coming towards us+]

[+Everyone, jump out of the train immediately! +] Sergeant Major Valina immediately broke more glass, and the Hell's Vanguard stepped on the seats and jumped out of the magnetic track.

Horatio groaned, and the solid armor did not hurt him.

With his advance warning, everyone jumped out of the car through the broken windows before the train collided.

Bang!

A huge crash resounded throughout the track, followed by the harsh noise of the collapse of the metal support.

The fragments fell on Horatio, making a tinkling sound.

[+Stay alert, there are ambushes+] Horatio got up from the ground and immediately used the auspicious instrument to scout the surrounding situation.

With the warning just now, although Louise didn't know how Horatio had predicted it in advance, she believed in his judgment.

Everything looked too much like an ambush.

[+Is anyone injured? +] Sergeant Valina asked.

[+Someone was crushed by the collapsed frame+] David Betty shouted.

Horatio immediately rushed over.

Harvey's calf was crushed by the collapsed train frame, and the sergeant mark showed his identity.

[+Horatio, come+] Sergeant Valina walked to the edge of the ruins and called to Horatio, saying that the two of them should be the strongest in the team.

The two of them stabilized a support point while the others immediately began to guard the surroundings.

[+Enemy contact! +] Louise shouted.

The dense rain of shotgun shells blew over Horatio's head.
