And this was the reason why they dared to conclude that something must have happened to that team.

"Huh?"

"This is……"

Sure enough!

As Ali went deeper, she soon discovered many traces of battles in a passage ahead, as well as some messy footprints.

"This is the shell of a bolter shell, that's right!"

"The degree of rust is very light. It should have happened just three days ago..."

Slowly squatting down and looking at the footprints, she then picked up a bullet case and looked at it. After discovering some scratches on it that had not been corroded by rust, Ali determined on the spot that this was where her person was attacked and lost contact.

"This is……"

"What the hell?"

But soon, Ali discovered something was wrong: some other scattered footprints did not seem to be what humans should look like, some were too thick, and they did not look like Astartes Space Marines. As for what they were specifically

, she couldn't guess it yet.

And she also saw that there seemed to be some kind of mucus hanging on the walls of the scene that had not dried due to the humid and harsh environment?

Although she didn't know what it was, Ali, who originally wanted to reach out and touch it and grab a little bit to smell it, held back.

"..."

Because she felt that the mucus didn't seem very friendly?

Then, as she gradually walked forward, there were waves of low roars coming from the darkness, but Ali didn't pay attention, thinking it was some kind of cosmic parasitic beast or something. She had seen it a lot.

However, she didn't know why, but there was a vaguely unfamiliar smell in the air that she didn't like. She seemed to have smelled it somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

And then...

Her extraordinary sense of smell smelled a strange and dangerous smell in the air that was very strong. It was like a strange smell mixed with corruption, despair and unknown power?

It was quietly eroding Ali's senses, but unfortunately, it failed to shake the belief in her heart.

At the same time, she also knew that something had discovered and targeted her in this abandoned deck area, and then the other party ridiculously let some kind of seductive whisper linger in her ears, as if she wanted to just rely on it.

Just to bewitch her like that?

Obviously, the other party found her...

"Stop hiding!"

"Why don't you all come out!"

Now that the other party had noticed her arrival, Ali simply stopped hiding him and walked directly to an open place in front of him. Then he stopped and sneered and said sarcastically.

And the reason why she didn't call her subordinates to come over for support immediately was because she wanted to test first to see who the other party was and what kind of confidence and strength they had. If she ignored calling people over after this meeting,

That would just cause trouble for her.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The next second, those guys who were hiding in the darkness, peeping and whispering, actually came out in response!

"!!"

Then, Ali was slightly shocked to see: the surrounding darkness seemed to be torn apart by some invisible hand, and then, a group of twisted monsters slowly walked out from the gaps in the shadows and decaying bulkheads, and soon they

She was surrounded by people in the middle of the field, which was probably not even bigger than a basketball court.

The key is that her eyesight, which is far better than that of ordinary people and can see things normally like daylight in low-light environments, allows her to see that although those monsters have human outlines, they are no longer human beings, but seem to have been possessed by some kind of evil.

Like a cultist twisted by power, even more terrifying!

Anyway, those guys who were covered with abscesses on the outside, whose skin might melt away with a little contact, and whose swollen bodies and internal organs that were wrapped in armor to prevent leakage, told her that those guys who looked like average Astartes were even taller.

They were definitely not the ordinary cult members she had seen before.

Of course, the most important thing is: she saw that the team of scouts she sent three days ago, those fellow rebels who had fought alongside her, also appeared among them, and besides their physical appearance

In addition to the distortions and changes, the still intact face was corroded by unknown forces, and those angry eyes were full of pain and madness?

Yes!

Those were her men. Although most of their bodies and faces were distorted, she could still recognize them at a glance from their armor.

"It seems..."

"The situation is indeed not good."

Seeing that it was difficult, Ali finally sighed and expressed her worries about the current situation.

However, her expression remained calm and firm, without any hesitation, as if the twisted monsters surrounding her did not exist.

"..."

Immediately afterwards, as the ferocious monsters gradually approached her without saying a word and with ill intentions, she began to quickly assess the situation at the scene, and then suddenly pulled out her two slender chain swords with both hands.

Let the cold light flashing on its blade disappear in the darkness.

"!!"

Then, without any extra words, Ali stood up, brandishing her two chainswords and charged at the monsters preemptively.

Like a cheetah ready to go, she instantly rushed into the monster group with her exaggerated explosive power and strength far beyond ordinary people. At the same time, the chain sword cut through the air, making a sharp whistle, and every time she slashed

All accompanied by sparks flying or flesh and blood flying, a small area was cleared almost instantly.

However, these monsters are no ordinary creature!

Although they seem to have lost their minds, they contain unimaginable power within their bodies. Some can emit deafening roars that make the surrounding space tremble; others can wield the surrounding metal fragments with powerful force.

Let it turn into a deadly flying blade and attack Ali... But the most terrifying thing is that after death, the mucus will explode, which is definitely not a good thing without even thinking about it!

And that kind of weird and dangerous situation naturally made Ali's attack, which was like chopping melons and vegetables, become timid.

Because she not only has to destroy those monsters, but also needs to find bunkers or use the twisted, bloated and swollen bodies of the unexploded monsters to block the exploding liquid. Otherwise, God knows what will happen when they splash her face.

What a terrible thing!

Soon, the battle gradually entered a fierce stage.

However, at this time, Ali became more and more comfortable.

Because she discovered that except for those disgusting things that the twisted monsters exploded after death, their force value was pitifully low compared to her, and their threat level was not even as good as a group of imperial soldiers using thermal weapons. Then

Not to mention those Astartes.

So, as her figure dazzled among the monsters, as the light of the two chain swords continued to flash, when she finally hid at the corner of a passage and stood still, letting the two headless men behind her

The monster exploded and covered the area where she was just now with all kinds of mucus, intestines, and rotten flesh and skin fragments. Not a single one of the monsters that had been attacking menacingly just now was still standing.

No!

In fact, not even one of them was complete, leaving only a large area of ​​tissue fragments, debris, stumps and mucus stuck on the decaying walls, ceiling and floor in the warring area.

"..."

But it's a pity that although she won the battle without too much difficulty, Ali didn't feel any joy or satisfaction in her heart.

on the contrary!

At this time, she was still holding two chain swords and on guard, because she knew that this battle was far from over, and the real enemy was hidden in the deeper darkness ahead and watching her.

really!

At this moment, before Ali could take a breath, a stronger wave of energy came from the front, followed by an equally strong burst of terrifying roars and sound waves, followed immediately by a figure with huge blood-red skin and fangs.

Figures with sharp claws, terrifying horns and huge wings slowly appeared.

The opponent's eyes were like two burning black holes, and the violent power seemed to swallow up all the light and hope around him. Ali's heart skipped a beat, and at the same time, there was an unprecedented sense of crisis.

"??"

But she didn't flinch. Instead, she frowned and stared at the other person, racking her brains to think of something.

soon!

Waves of ancient memories came to mind, and Ali seemed to finally remember what the other person was!

Because, she thought about her childhood shadow when a certain bad little sister Anne suddenly dragged her to an underground research institute to see the ferocious monsters imprisoned in the cells.

"!!"

"demon!"
