MM Racing Chapter 5 Heresy
Chapter 5 Heresy
"The Legion of Word Bearers? The Alpha Legion? The Hell Dragons?" Qin Mo muttered these names, shaking his head slightly. "What tongue-twisting names."
Those Astragalus soldiers in the bunker below all wore subtle expressions upon hearing this.
Sir, isn't your tone a little too flat?
That's the traitor Astartes!
It's still a mix of Whisperers and Alpha Legion!
Those flying ones above are even more demonic engines!
When a normal person sees this lineup, their first reaction should be to write a will, not to complain that the names are hard to pronounce!
At this moment, Qin Mo looked up again, and the enemy army had already come into view.
Leading the way was a squad of giant warriors clad in dark red power armor—the Word Bearers.
Their armor was covered with blasphemous runes, and their breastplates were inlaid with twisted eight-pointed stars.
The leading warrior was more muscular than the others, wearing a helmet with huge horns on his head and holding a scepter that emitted a dark light.
He was a Dark Apostle, a priest and battlefield commander of the Legion of Word Bearers.
On the flank of the Word Bearers, another group of warriors clad in indigo and silver armor were deploying in a more silent and orderly formation—the Alpha Legion.
Meanwhile, in the sky, fifteen hell dragons were circling and closing in.
Clearly, this advance force of chaos came to investigate after noticing the inexplicable disappearance of nearly a thousand demons.
When they saw Qin Mo standing alone in the center of the battlefield, with only thirty-odd trembling Star Realm soldiers behind him, everyone's first reaction was confusion.
The Dark Apostle raised his scepter: "Mortal! Where have those demons gone? Did you do this?"
Qin Mo was too lazy to answer.
He is evaluating.
According to the information in the encyclopedia, the core of those hell dragons is a bound demon soul, and their outer shell is a metal machine.
While directly collecting souls using the Soul-Collecting Banner would be simple, he suddenly had another idea—
He looked down at the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls.
The nearly one thousand demon souls that had just been collected within the banner were churning and stirring. Although they had been refined by the Myriad Souls Banner and completely submitted to Qin Mo's will, their fighting instincts and destructive desires still remained.
"Perfect," Qin Mo murmured to himself, "Let's test the quality of these newly acquired souls."
With a wave of his sleeve, the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls unfurled in the wind!
"Come out."
Black energy surged on the banner's surface, and hundreds of twisted souls roared as they flew out of it.
However, unlike when they were first captured, the eyes of these demonic souls have now turned into a dark, eerie green. This is a mark left after they were completely refined by the Myriad Soul Banner, signifying that they have become Qin Mo's absolute vassals.
Thousands of demons appeared out of thin air on the battlefield, but they were no longer servants of the four Chaos Gods, but rather soldiers of the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls.
"Go ahead." Qin Mo casually pointed to the sky. "Tear down those tin dragons."
Thousands of demons roared excitedly as they charged straight at the hellish dragons in the sky!
The fifteen hell dragons in the sky immediately let out angry roars.
They instinctively sensed the warp energy emanating from these demons. It was indeed the energy of their own kind, but it was also mixed with some alien power that made them extremely uneasy.
Before they could think any further, the air battle had already begun.
The first hell dragon swooped down, opening its massive maw to spew forth a burst of warp flames, attempting to incinerate the charging horde of demons.
But those green-eyed demons didn't dodge or evade at all. They were spirits, and physical attacks and ordinary warp flames had very limited effect on them.
Hundreds of vampires roared and pounced on the hell dragon. Their claws pierced through the metal shell, not in a physical sense, but in a spiritual invasion.
The vampire's claws seized the bound demonic soul inside the hell dragon and yanked it hard.
"Awooo—!!"
A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the sky.
The Hellfire Dragon's metal eyes suddenly dimmed, its massive mechanical body lost power, and it crashed to the ground, leaving a huge crater in its wake.
The demon souls that were pulled out were torn apart and devoured by the vampires.
One.
Two.
Five.
Ten crosses.
In just a few dozen breaths, all fifteen Hell Dragons were annihilated.
The battlefield fell silent in an instant.
On the ground, the Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers and the commander of the Alpha Legion fell into a brief silence.
The Dark Apostle's Scepter instinctively retracted to his chest and gripped it tightly.
His eyes were fixed on Qin Mo, and on the banner in Qin Mo's hand that was swirling with black energy.
Those demons... obey this mortal?
impossible.
The warp demons obey only the four Chaos Gods and their chosen people.
Even beings as skilled in demon summoning as the Dark Apostles can only temporarily control demons through complex rituals and massive blood sacrifices.
The human in front of them merely waved the flag, and the demon obediently rushed forward as a suicide squad.
What's even more terrifying is that those demons are black.
In the spectrum of subspace, black does not belong to any chaotic deity.
Khorne is red, Nurgle is green, Slaanesh is pinkish-purple, and Tzeentch is blue.
The color black signifies that these demons have broken free from the control of the Four Gods and are now under the dominion of some unknown force.
"...Heretical." The Dark Apostle uttered the word in a low voice, but his tone was more wary than angry. "He has mastered some unknown magic."
Beside him, the commander of the Alpha Legion succinctly assessed the situation: "Unknown threat. Long-range suppression recommended, while simultaneously calling for reinforcements."
The Dark Apostle nodded.
"The Alpha Legion is responsible for suppressing fire." He raised his scepter, and the eight-pointed star at the tip began to emit a dark red light.
"I'll open the rift. Since he can control demons, then let's overwhelm him with even more demons—I want to see how many his flag can swallow!"
The soldiers of the Alpha Legion immediately sprang into action.
Their tactical discipline was impressive; they maintained a calm and efficient formation change even when faced with unknown supernatural threats.
Dozens of Alpha Legion soldiers quickly dispersed, forming tactical squads of three, and took up various advantageous firing positions.
"Fire."
After a calm command, dozens of bullets from explosive guns simultaneously rained down on Qin Mo.
At the same time, there was also various forms of firepower bombardment from the enemy's mortal auxiliary forces.
Boom boom boom boom—
Explosions rang out one after another, and the barrage of comments completely engulfed Qin Mo's figure in flames and smoke.
The Astronauts could only hide in their bunkers, covering their heads with their hands.
That level of firepower is beyond their ability to counter.
however--
When the smoke cleared, Qin Mo was still standing in the same spot.
He didn't even change his posture.
A faint aura enveloped him within three feet, and all the explosive warheads were either deflected or annihilated by an invisible force the moment they came into contact with the shield.
On the ground, the area within three feet of his feet was clean, while beyond that was a patch of scorched earth riddled with craters from the explosion.
The protective spiritual energy at the peak of the Mahayana stage.
Let alone these explosive guns, even a bolt of lightning might not be able to break through it.
