Chapter 197 Wizard
Chapter 197 Wizard
If there was a strategic radar similar to that in an RTS game at this time, which colored both the humans and orcs in the battlefield in front of the Blackwater Festival, then on the radar, the area close to the Blackwater Festival would be filled with the color representing the orcs. Although there were still small groups of human troops active in the orc cluster, they were quickly wiped out.
On the overall front, the colors of humans and orcs were basically deadlocked, and even the human front on the edge of the Blackwater Section began to shrink.
Because the military force invested by humans in this war is no longer sustainable, while the orcs' reinforcements are endless.
Just as Sister Gloria learned, four-fifths of the planet's land was occupied by orcs, and humans were the ones surrounded by the enemy. When the blitz on the orcs' base camp failed, orcs from other areas continued to come to support, and some more cunning orcs chose to avoid the battlefield in the Blackwater Zone at this point and sneak attack the human base camp.
The stereotype that orcs are brainless is a common one. In reality, throughout the long history of the Empire and the Orcs, there have been numerous instances of the Orcs employing strategies and tactics, and even instances of the Human Empire and Orcish legions collaborating against the enemy. However, this unique intelligence was quickly lost amidst the vast amount of conventional intelligence. Consequently, most Imperial commanders viewed these greenskins as merely a group of uncivilized barbarians armed with lethal weapons, leading to their heavy losses.
Overall, the defeat of the human side has become apparent, but on the front line that has already shown signs of stalemate and collapse, a human force at one node has advanced deep into the orc army and pierced the orcs' heart like a sharp knife.
This is the Silent Sisters unit that escorted the orc wizards.
Gloria led the charge, using explosives and chainsaws to clear a path. The leader of the Sisters of Silence fought alongside her. The soul-level stench emanating from the Sisters of Silence made Gloria feel severely ill, but she suppressed the urge to vomit and brandished her weapon.
Driven by her disgust for the Sisters of Silence, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Gloria gradually became disconnected from the main group of nuns. Her behavior became more aggressive and impulsive, and she gradually left the nun group behind and moved to the front.
Gloria is not like Drago. Drago's physical and equipment advantages make him invincible among orcs of this level, but Gloria is not like that. The orcs' various guns and weapons can hurt her and kill her. She becomes more and more courageous in battle, but the wounds on her body also increase.
"Waaagh!"
An orc holding a battle axe shouted and jumped at Gloria. Gloria reacted, but at this time her chainsaw weapon was cutting the spine of an orc. Gloria had no choice but to use her arms to defend herself. Her arm blocked the handle of the orc's battle axe, but the sharp blade of the battle axe still cut completely into her armor and almost cut off her collarbone.
"Buzz!"
Stimulated by the pain, Gloria exerted force with her hands and instantly cut the orc that was stuck in her chainsaw sword in half along the spine. Then she turned the blade and slashed open the heart of the orc that had cut off her collarbone.
The orc holding the battle axe fell down, and Gloria felt a little dazed because of the excessive force. She was about to put down the chainsaw sword to take a breath, but immediately she felt the impact and pain on the left side of her waist. It was a small orc who saw Gloria's weakness, so he touched the blind spot of her vision and stabbed her armor with a dagger.
Gloria roared angrily. This time she didn't use her chainsaw sword, but swung her fist directly, cracking the small orc's head.
After killing the sneak attacking orc, Gloria finally couldn't hold on any longer. She knelt on one knee and spat out sticky bloody saliva.
If there were not a few friendly soldiers protecting her, she would have died under the orcs' swords in the moment she relaxed.
Kneeling on one knee, Gloria casually broke off the orc dagger that was stuck in her waist, and then used a chainsaw sword to saw off the handle of the orc battle axe that was stuck in her shoulder armor. If it were an Astartes, this level of external injuries and foreign objects would be directly pulled out. The blood of these modified people can quickly scab and stop bleeding, and their more advanced armor will automatically inject them with analgesics and regeneration potions.
But for Gloria, this foreign object that has pierced her body cannot be removed. Once it is removed, she may bleed profusely and quickly lose her fighting ability.
After all, becoming a combat nun only requires genetic screening, not genetic modification. After taking off the outer armor, Gloria's body still belongs to the category of "human".
Gloria knew that she could not return alive, so she had to slow down the loss of her combat effectiveness as much as possible so that she could kill a few more aliens for the empire.
With such determination, Gloria stood up again. Although the wound on her waist was painful, it did not affect her movements. The problem was the wound on her shoulder. The axe had cut through the armor's rotating device and her shoulder. Now her left hand, which she used to use the explosive bomb, could no longer exert any strength.
So Gloria simply threw away her explosive weapon, pulled out the chainsaw sword stuck in the ground, rushed out of the cover of her friendly forces, and charged into the enemy camp.
"For the Emperor!"
Gloria shouted and said that she would chop into pieces all the orcs that blocked her way. Now she only knew how to attack and not defend. She used her body to bear all the bullets and swords.
She had to leave the Sister of Silence's anti-psychic field before she collapsed.
She still had one last trick up her sleeve. She was a psychic, and under the Sister of Silence's anti-psychic aura, she couldn't unleash her most powerful weapon.
Finally, after stepping out of a certain boundary, Gloria felt that the blood in her body, which had been suppressed and stagnant, began to flow again. The unpleasant stench disappeared, and she could feel unprecedentedly powerful spiritual energy surging in her body, anxiously waiting for her to command it.
Silver lightning burst out from Gloria's hands, and the moisture in the surrounding air froze into white frost mist. But just as Gloria was about to use all her spiritual energy to launch a final blow against these orcs, a powerful spiritual pressure came head-on and suppressed the spiritual energy in her body.
"puff!"
The backlash of the psychic energy caused Gloria to spit out blood. She searched in horror for the source of that powerful spiritual pressure. That spiritual pressure was so powerful that it was the second strongest psychic energy she had ever felt in her life.
The strongest one was the unknown psychic energy left over from a few hours ago.
However, after Gloria's psychic vision was activated, she was unable to find the specific source of the spiritual pressure.
Because that powerful psychic energy does not come from a certain individual, but fills the entire space and is the violent "waaagh" energy emitted by every orc.
Amidst these violent energies, Gloria saw flickering nodes. It was the orc wizard who appeared on this battlefield for the first time.
