MTL - Warhammer Inquisitor-Chapter 601 Lost Canyon

  Chapter 601 Lost Canyon

The fiery wind blows on those towering rocky walls, they are like thousands of honeycombs, on the surface, after thousands of years of baptism, there are many holes left, and the strong wind blows through them, bringing a long The ear-piercing buzzing sound, mixed with the roiling heat wave, made this place feel like the gate of hell.

From the hole in the rock, a living body crawled out, it was a native species born and grown on the local scorching land, it was not a powerful predator, but a small lizard similar to the lizard on the Terra Desert Reptiles generally hunt and reproduce in the dark underground or in the gaps between rocks.

But the latter itself is the greatest achievement. Here, survival is the greatest success. Nothing can compare with it. It can be said that if this kind of creature can survive, it has already surpassed the vast majority in the galaxy. Most living organisms climbed up the rocky surface, and on the round eyes, a thin film slipped from the corners of the eyes, moistening the eyeballs that had dried up in the sun, and on the maroon eyeballs, reflected a kind of Lifeforms that have never existed.

It was a pair of steel legs. It walked on the passage between the rocky mountains on both sides. The roiling heat wave swept up a large number of fallen particles and collided with its legs, bringing a crackling sound, while others, Then it swept up from its chest, leaped from its shoulders, and was rushed into the sky at the opened exhaust port.

The exhaust port that pops up from bottom to top spits out a piece of cold air that is lower in temperature than the surrounding air, which is left over from the cooling cycle of the armor. The moment everything in the world came into contact with it, it instantly turned bright red, and then disappeared without a trace.

The gas blows through the side of the red helmet. On the front of the helmet, there is a complete display glass. Its translucent material makes the beautiful face panting heavily and sweat dripping from its head feel a burst of light. He breathed out from behind his red lips, "Technician, you said this armor is useful, but I didn't feel it at all!"

"It's useful, Commander, otherwise you'd be dehydrated or dead now." The technician walking at the front of the team said without turning his head. The robot is moving around, relying on its more reliable structure than flesh and blood, moving around in this land of death.

The suspension device of that machine caused a burst of electric ion reflection on the surrounding sandy ground surface, they swept Sally on the ground, and the electric field reaction itself also allowed the hunter to sense the active robot, At least know that it hasn't died in the desert yet.

"Really? I feel like now, I'm not far from falling, my head be damned, how long have we been walking?" "Three hours, the good news is, it's past noon and the hottest hours are ending." "Then how long will it take to completely end?" "Well, optimistically, seven hours." "Seven hours?!" "Yes, the sun's rotation period on this planet is longer, and the days are longer .”

When Yeta spoke, she could feel her lips dry, as if they were about to split. She walked in the middle and back of the team, facing the strong wind blowing from the opposite side of the valley, and the gravel in it. It slammed into the crimson power armor, and it slammed, as if it was fried on the skin of a turkey that was roasted in the oven.

In front of her, the hunter, the front sight, and Yarick were walking together, they formed a forward defense line on the left, the technician was walking in front of them, and the destruction king, and the echo, were behind Yeta, They could have walked faster, saying that they were covering the rear and avoiding attacks, but Yeta felt that they were afraid that they would faint.

Yeta doesn't like this, being treated as a weak little girl, as if she needs their care, although this is also true in a sense, Yeta has never been like this team, in many harsh environments with huge gaps He has performed missions, and he doesn't want Commissar Yarek. His Armageddon itself is a world with a harsh environment, and the sun there is not much gentler than here.

Yarick was born in those barren wastelands, trained there, and fought against the invading greenskin army for decades. Although he did not wear power armor, his adaptability to this place , but it can still be called the pinnacle, it can be called the crystallization of human evolution.

This is not the case for Yeta, she is indeed a little girl, she just turned 20 this year, and has never experienced a real ground war, let alone in such a harsh environment, but she doesn't want to show it, she doesn't want to It made them feel that they were weak and wondered if the Marshal had sent him here to delay her, so she chose to remain silent.

Yeta followed the team, walking in the narrow valley, which is extremely conducive to heat waves and strong winds to play their role. She raised her arms to block her face, and the gravel kept hitting her arms. The hollowed-out arm inside was passed into the helmet, and the surrounding environment became quiet, and no one spoke, as if to preserve the concentration of saliva in the mouth in this hot environment, so as to avoid gum bleeding or dehydration.

However, they can communicate with each other through another method, which is simpler and does not waste too much energy. The hunter suddenly stopped, raised a hand beside him, clenched his fist, and the whole team stopped immediately. down.

He waved his hand to the side of the mountain, and after the sight nodded to the technician, he took up the sniper rifle and rushed there immediately. He climbed up the steep weathered rock surface, and the hunter watched him climb up. After reaching the top of the mountain, she waved her hand to the hillside where Yeta and everyone else were on the side. Yeta didn't react immediately, but after seeing the technician and the King of Destruction, they all started running to the side, she also knew That means.

Yeta also rushed over, followed them, stepped on the hollow rock surface and jumped up, the armored feet under her feet crushed the fragmented weathered stone, and then stretched out her hand to let The hunter pulled her closer behind a boulder halfway up the mountain.

She leaned on the stone, her eyes behind the translucent glass, looked at the technician beside her who was also behind the translucent glass, "What happened? What did your robot detect?" "No, it's not mine, it's Hunter." "Him?" "Yes, the hunter's intuition is extremely sharp and more reliable than most machines. If he thinks we are in danger, then there must be."

"Then what's the danger this time?" "Quiet, Destroyer, someone is coming, sights, have you seen them?" The hunter raised his head and looked at the sights on the top of the weathered rock. Behind the rocks that have turned into coral, the long gun barrel is hidden among the steep stone walls.

The front sight's helmet is close to the scope, and his screen is surrounded by several circles of precision axes, which are automatically calibrated when aiming, but the front sight still doesn't believe it, and adjusts by itself, "Three motorcycles, not green skins , are humans, barbarians." "Local predators, this is their territory, it seems that we have come here uninvited." "This is the territory of the empire, there is no one who is not invited, technician." "Maybe it is Well, commissar, but I think they might not agree with that."

"Technician, didn't your robot find any green skins around, right?" The hunter turned around and asked, the technician nodded, and lifted the glass cover on the helmet. He might have tried to lift the glasses at the back, but obviously failed, but this It may be more of his habit, Yeta has seen it several times, and whenever the technician thinks about a problem, he will do it.

"No, the reconnaissance robots didn't find any green skins nearby. Their bases and strongholds may be farther away than we imagined." "Then ask the locals, they probably are more familiar with those who came first than us." Guests, sights, keep them." "Understood."

The hunter's order was spoken through the earphone on the helmet arm close to the front sight's ear in the helmet. He was lying on the rock, and his fingers turned the **** above the sight. Between the valleys, the gradually The looming engine sound, that's not a good engine, it's pretty loud, but given the local conditions, you can hardly expect the local marauders to spare you anything really good.

Yeta poked his head out and saw the source of the sound. It was a leading motorcycle. There were several auxiliary fuel tanks hanging on the surface of the black body. Roughly welded to the body in a furious way, not to mention, connecting them to the body, or a few pipes that seem to be picked up from nowhere.

The whole locomotive was running on the mountain full of gravel between the valleys. Its wheels kept running over the stones, and the upward vibration hit the end of the car body, making the handlebars of the car shake up and down, and even sitting on it The person on the seat also ups and downs. He is a person wearing a black jacket. There are many protruding spikes on the jacket. He is wearing a hood, and his face is blocked by the windshield. And behind the black scarf covering the lips and nose.

His most iconic feature is the tall cockscomb on his head, which looks like the most classic desert predator. He is riding a rough motorcycle that shakes violently and seems to be falling apart at any time. At the front of the car, Hanging a human upper body ribs, skull, and a strange totem composed of hand bones.

Behind him followed the other two predators similar in shape to him. They set off on the motorcycle, holding the handlebar of the motorcycle with their arms raised high, and kept spinning, letting it hum and spit out the Black exhaust.

The hunter crouched behind the boulder and looked at the three motorcycles passing in front of him. He greeted the front sight, and the front sight lying on the top of the mountain nodded slightly. The sight, as his name suggests, aimed at the rider of a car from in front of that eye.

The laser beam exploded in the valley in an instant, and the red light leaped up in an instant, piercing the driver's head with a single shot. The windshield he wore on his face exploded in an instant, shattering the flesh and blood behind him. , also erupted from under the fur cap, and the rider in front of him looked back, watching the rider fall to the side, his arm tugging on the handrail, causing the motorcycle to roll over on its side.

The entire motorcycle hit the sandy ground, turned over with the driver, flew in the air, kicked up a lot of sand, and then smashed to the ground. He quickly turned the handlebar of the car, dodged the wreckage of his teammate's car body that was rolling in front of him, and looked up to the direction of the gunshot. He saw the front sight among the rocks on the top, and pulled out the car Shotgun strapped to the side of the body.

But just when he raised the muzzle and aimed to fire, the front sight stood up all of a sudden, he raised the eyes of the muzzle and the front sight in the scope, put it on the man's face, and then pulled the trigger , crackle, the laser is obviously still light, isn't it? Its speed was much faster than that of a real bullet, and it pierced through the man's head at once. He fell back, and the hand holding the trigger subconsciously pulled it.

The shotgun cracked, and the muzzle suddenly fell off, hitting the rear tire of the last driver in front. His tire was directly broken, and then fell down, and the steel frame in it collided with the stones on the ground Together, they directly caused the motorcycle to lose its balance. It flew up and hit the sandy ground forward, where thick dust and smoke filled the air. The front sight stepped on the rock on the top of the mountain with one foot and picked up the sniper rifle. .

"Good job, good marksmanship." "Needless to say." The hunter climbed over the boulder and slid down the hillside. Yeta, the technician, and Destroyer also slid down after them, their footsteps raised on the mountain There was a large cloud of dust, but compared with the result when the motorcycle fell down, it was nothing like a drop in the bucket.

The hunter walked into the smog that filled the valley. He walked through the wreckage scattered on the ground with his armored steps. The motorcycle with its body buried in the thick sand came into view, as well as the person leaning on it.

He leaned sideways on the motorcycle, slumped on the ground, one leg was broken due to the impact, and the whole calf was twisted into a 90-degree angle. He growled and glared at the hunter who appeared from the smoke. Take out the shotgun on the car body at hand, aiming at the hunter is just one shot.

The latter pulled out the pistol at his waist in an instant with lightning speed, and hit the rough shotgun with a single shot. The muzzle of the gun was shot out by the laser beam, and hit the ground in the distance. On the rock, it was shattered into parts. The motorcyclist looked at the smashed shotgun, glared at the hunter, and then stretched his hand behind him, as if trying to pick something out. The hunter's eyes immediately followed the gesture. And at this moment, the leather jacket stretched open on the wild driver's chest in an instant, and a third hand stretched out from there, holding a shiny revolver in that hand.

When the hunter didn't notice, he was about to shoot, but just as he was about to pull the trigger, a gunshot accompanied by a red light flashed in the smoke, and the driver's head exploded, "Sight." "no need to thank me."

The front sight held a laser gun and came out of the smoke. He held a toothpick in his mouth behind the glass cover. The hunter glanced at him, and then at the driver with three hands on the ground. He was dead, with his whole head. A hole was lasered from the back.

"Now, we want to ask questions, but we can't." "That's not enough, at least we have two harvests." "Two? What two?" Echo walked out of the diffuse dust and came to the hunter who had already reached the hunter one step ahead. And asked the technician who bent down to observe the corpse.

   "First, we know that there is serious radiation or chaos pollution in the local area. This arm is caused by a mutation. Second, they are just a forward team. I think their main team will come soon."

As the technician said, he raised the data board in his hand, and the board showed that there were a large number of active signals in the distance, and they were approaching here, and the number was quite large, "We can, ask the leader of their convoy, I believe that he will know more about the information we want to know than these subordinates."

"So, you plan to rely on a few of us to ambush the entire convoy of predators?" Yeta asked with one hand on his hip, while the hunter raised his gun with a smile, and the sight behind him also pulled the bolt. "Look, you're getting to know us."
