Forty thousand years later, he became a god in the warp

Chapter 142 Individual and Collective Sacrifice and Betrayal

Lin Heng yelled excitedly, veins popped up on his forehead, and his anger seemed to be about to burst out.

Looking at the cold-blooded judge in front of him, he stomped his feet on the ground, clenched his fists and rushed forward.

"hiss"

But the hatch opened again, and the Grey Knight just stretched out his hand and opened his five fingers. With a "bang", Lin Heng was knocked to the ground by the shock wave generated by the psychic energy.

The crew members rushed forward and held Lin Heng down. Five or six people held one side of him, and his body moved up and down. They had never expected that Lin Heng had so much strength.

The skin and flesh that had just recovered a little were torn apart again during the struggle, and blood splattered on the floor.

"They are all trying hard to live! Even if they are not good people, they are definitely living for the Hive!

Everyone is fighting against the tyranny of the lord! Although they are terrified by those evil things, no one escapes!

Russell! Cowran! Raymond! Kinvartan! Orwell! Ark! Shoggoth!!!"

Lin Heng yelled his friend's name and twisted his body like a mad beast.

Those soldiers who fought tenaciously died too miserably. This was not the ending they deserved.

Belvis walked up to Lin Heng and signaled everyone to let go of Lin Heng.

The crew looked at the Inquisitor, whose cold and ruthless gaze seemed to freeze the air in the command room. They quickly let go and took a step away, but still protected their leader.

Although Lin Heng was also shocked by the other party's indifferent attitude, the anger in his heart could not be extinguished easily.

"We will carefully examine your identity. But please answer my question first. How old are you?"

Lin Heng was so angry when he looked at this woman. She had tried so hard to survive for so long, but in the end, she was abandoned by the empire. And you still want me to answer your questions calmly?

"F*cking 25!"

Lin Heng roared and threw a punch, but the result was still tragic. No matter how fast he reacted, he was not faster than the Grey Knight.

The flesh fist collided with the iron fist, and with a "click", Lin Heng's entire right fist felt like it was run over by a car.

The flesh and blood were turned inside out and the bones were exposed. This was a reinforced body. If an ordinary orc stood here, half of his body would probably be gone.

"Um...!"

Lin Heng gritted his teeth and took two steps back, then opened his bloodshot eyes and looked at this group of callous humanoid demons.

“In 25 Terran years, it’s quite unique to have a situation like yours.

As a secret agency of the empire, we are unknown to the public, let alone those within the empire who can understand us.

You have no idea what kind of enemies the Empire faces in this galaxy. You are just a drop in the ocean and you are not even in that well!" Belvis said.

"Rebels, space pirates, barbarians, cultists, chaos creatures, mutants, orcs, demons!

I've been through a lot, so just speak your mind and stop talking nonsense to me!"

Lin Heng pinched his right wrist to prevent excessive blood loss. He thought that this was indeed the case, even though he was traveling among the stars.

We have come into contact with less than ten planets, so it is normal for some strange creatures to appear in millions of worlds.

He really didn't understand such a galaxy, but he was clear about one thing.

"You have no right to decide their life or death!"

When Lin Heng shouted these words, Belvis showed an expression uglier than crying, as if he knew that Lin Heng would say such words.

“Yes, too many people question whether we have the power to let billions of people die. But those who know the truth understand that I have no power to let them live!

Since you have seen the cultists, you should know how hateful they are. Isn't the demon that lures them into the endless abyss even more dangerous!

And above the devil, there is the even more terrifying evil god. If you can really understand the difficulties involved!

Trust me, you'll press it more often than I do."

Lin Heng did not lose his mind, he was just a little anxious. He understood what the judge meant. Not many people could be as lucky as he was.

If we can't even resist the slander of the cultists, how can we resist the ghostly words of the devil? If everyone could resist it, then the planet of El wouldn't be in this state.

The Grey Knight patted the excited Belvis and said:

“The news about the devil must never be exposed to mortals. Even a piece of paper stained with the devil’s aura will drag mortals into an endless abyss.

Not to mention those who have seen the true form of the devil, the extermination order is a helpless move, and it is also because the news you brought is beyond the limit that anyone can accept!"

“There is no place for the weak-willed or the indecisive. Only by resolute action and firm conviction can humanity survive.

No sacrifice is too great to be tolerated, no betrayal too small to be tolerated," said Belvis.

Lin Heng took a deep breath to calm himself. He just couldn't accept the news for a while.

Walking toward the observation window again and looking at the flame circle that was no longer spreading, he began to doubt why he had to endure such pain.

He would die wherever he went. This time was the most serious one. The most crucial thing was probably that he was the one who revealed the news about Vulcan, which made the Inquisitor determined to issue the extermination order.

When Lin Heng was in great torment, Belvis walked behind him, looked at the "clean" El Star and sighed:

"Individual survival is not important or even meaningless in the galaxy. We are the arbiters of absolute truth.

Tradition is irrelevant, culture is irrelevant, it doesn’t matter if it is despised by future generations or left infamy for eternity.

Everything we do is for the Imperium of Man, everything we do is for the Emperor!

We mortals only focus on what is happening in the present moment and have no idea of ​​the impact of what we do on the future.”

Lin Heng was speechless. He didn't want to accept the other party's argument yet. This result was still too cruel.

"Reporting to His Excellency the Inquisitor, the memory erasing machine is ready. Shall we proceed with the erasing?"

The crew member behind him ran over and said.

Belvis nodded and said, "Let the members of the Mechanicus do the cleanup first. Everyone must do it, even the sages.

Even the servitors who didn’t get off the ship had to be cleared out, corresponding to the names on the list. If one person is missing, they know the consequences.”

"Yes!" The crew left immediately.

Lin Heng exhaled and asked, "Do your crew members also need to undergo memory erasure?"

“According to normal procedures, the soldiers who have fought against the demons would be directly humanely destroyed, but because of the seriousness of Vulcan’s incident.

This time they were able to keep it, and at least they have you to thank for that.”

Lin Heng couldn't help but sneer when listening to Belvis' answer.

"Then can you also erase my memory of this place? I will tell you all the information I know."

Lin Heng feels that sometimes losing memory is not a bad thing. At least it is the brain protecting itself from being destroyed by the pain.

Pervis shook his head and said:

“Some things you can’t forget even if you want to, and some pains you have to endure.

It's the same with everyone. You are a member of the Imperial Guard. Do you remember how to pray to the Emperor?"

Lin Heng sighed, nodded, and began to pray tiredly.

"The Emperor is our guiding light.

It is the tower of hope for mankind in this dark galaxy.

We serve him.

He is our greatest public servant.

We pray to him.

He thinks only for us.

In the darkness of this approaching shadow,

The Emperor is with us,

In the soul, above the facts."

Lin Heng was a little tired and slumped on the ground. Belvis waved his hand to signal the military doctor to take him away for treatment.

Then he looked at the three silent Grey Knights and said:

"What do you think?"

"He's a promising guy. Although he's a bit old, his body is stronger than some orcs.

He will definitely survive the physical transformation experiment, and as we don’t see through his future, it is not clear who is responsible for this.

But if you are sure that his background is correct, we will try to accept him as a Grey Knight fighting in the Warp."

Belvis nodded, thinking that they thought the same as she did. After confirming Lin Heng's identity, they would make him their assistant.

Maybe in the future I’ll have the chance to inherit his mantle and become a glorious Demon Judge!

"Understood. I will try my best to collect his information. In the meantime, please pay attention to his spiritual energy fluctuations."

The Grey Knight nodded and left the scene.

Lin Heng slumped in the passenger seat of the jeep, looking extremely shocked. The doctor glanced at his injuries, pursed his lips and asked:

"Uh, cough, cough, don't worry, missing arms and legs are minor injuries that can be easily cured.

Of course, if you like, I can also equip you with a more powerful robotic arm to ensure there is no delay at all."

The doctor's words reminded Lin Heng of Shugus. Although he wanted to curse, the doctor also meant well, so he asked:

"Alas, it's really a bad luck. I haven't asked for your name yet..."

Lin Heng suddenly stopped talking, thinking that few of those who told him their names had a good life, so he might as well not ask to avoid bringing negative impact to the other party.

"Thank you, doctor, but I prefer the original one. Just help me put the bones back together and give me a few more injections of nutrient solution."

As the two ships sailed further and further away, the planet El seemed to become a thing of the past.

Although the Order also lost a large number of personnel, as Belvis said, no sacrifice was too great to be accepted.

When the orange-red flames gradually died down due to the thin air, the charred land was illuminated by the starlight.

And on this planet marked as a dead world by the Inquisition, a broken mechanical object broke through the charred soil and ushered in resurrection.

The Shoggoth supported his broken body and stood on the still warm ground.

Looking at the same charred scene all around, I probably understood everything in my heart.

With a "thump", he fell to the ground.
