Chapter 30 - Death Knights A.K.A. Terminators

"Lieutenant Hans you goddamn maniac at least you could have given a warning before starting to shoot over!"

The furious Lilith roared at top of her voice into the IFV's cc while changing her rifle's jungle mag with a fresh one which was her last one.

"Don't worry commander Lilith my boys wouldn't accidentally hit your jarheads even if they were shooting blind over"

Hearing Hans answer Lilith rolled her eyes as she released her bolt stuck in a backward position causing a fresh round to enter her rifles firing chamber.

"They better not otherwise you're dead meat you hear me over?!"

"Loud and clear commander Lilith over"

Tch! This bastard just you wait until big bro wakes up! I'll see if you'll be that carefree after some discipline training!

Lilith thought evilly in her mind only for Ark to gallop past through her left side and as he did she saw the pitch black miasma seeping out from him and his horse seep into the scout's corpses through their noses and mouths.

She saw the fresh corpse in front of her start trashing as black blood vessels spread out under his skin as it's still leaking out blood from its mouth and the hole in its chest turned pitch black.

Once it did the corpse sprung up to its feet like it didn't have a hole in its chest and started sprinting towards the empire's soldiers with gusto while letting out horrifying groans of a hungry zombie ready to dig into its meal.

Where ever the death knights passed through the same thing happened, the corpses sprung up to their feet and started running after the death knights.

Who without any care in the world slammed themselves into still intact turtle formations at full speed, making dozens of soldiers get trampled to death by their horse's hooves while others got sent flying from the force of the impact with their ribs already broken in dozen of places.

Then she saw the death knights start slashing, smashing, and ripping the helpless soldiers who could barely even leave a scratch on the death knight's bodies with their gladius steel swords while their horses trampled them to death with their hooves.

But the most scariest part was that the ones that death knights killed didn't stay dead, they came back to life and started tearing their former comrades to pieces.

It was a total one-sided massacre.

Thank god we didn't have to fight him personally otherwise we would be dead meat in seconds.

Lilith thought as she swallowed down a gulp of saliva.

...

"Wolf one and two cease fire! I repeat cease-fire and stop moving over!"

Hans roared into his IFV's cc after seeing that there was no point anymore in waisting their ammo.

"Wolf one copy over!"

"Wolf two copy over!"

Lieutenant Patrick, it's your time to shine thou by the looks of it there's not much left for you and your grunts to do over!

"Copy lieutenant Hans over!"

After Hans gave the green light to Patrick the 3 IFVs back doors opened up and the 40 fully geared-up soldiers exited the cars one by one and formed up into a single line.

"Lieutenant Hans we're ready to start the clean-up over!"

"Copy over!"

Following the two commanders' conversation, the line of soldiers with their rifles cocked and safeties off together with the slow-moving IFVs started advancing forward while shooting any stragglers on the spot.

...

Just as Ark who at this point was covered from head to toe in red blood was about to split the 98 legions commander in half with his bloody greatsword Lilith intervened.

"Time out! Time out big guy! That one is obviously a high-ranking officer you can't kill him! We need him alive so that we can interrogate him!"

Lilith roared as she jumped in front of Ark and made a cross sign with her hands.

Grhhh...

Ark grunted out as he stopped his greatsword above Liliths helmet covered head just in the nick of time causing a dozen of blood droplets to land on Lilith's helmet.

Phew! I thought I was a goner!

Lilith mentally patted herself only for her curiosity to get piqued by Ark who after storing his bloody greatsword and shield in his shadow from which a bunch of shadow tentacles extended themselves, grabbed his items, and pulled them inside.

Picked up two relatively intact corpses which were trashing on the ground as the black miasma from Ark's body seeped into them only to stop after he crushed their heads with his armored feet.

And placed them onto his wraith horse.

"Hey, Ark what are you doing?"

Lilith asked as she motioned with her left thumb for two MPs to grab the legions commander.

"Food... for... my... wife... and... son..."

Ark answered as he mounted his horse.

"Oh..."

Lilith blurted out as realization hit her only for a shiver to run through her body once an image of zombies tearing off the flesh from the corpse's bones manifested in her mind while Ark pressed his horse's stomach with his heels making him start galloping towards the city.

Urghhh! That's creepy as fuck!

Lilith cursed mentally as she looked at the thankful towards her commander who was being escorted to wolf two IFV with the MPs firmly holding each of the commanders handcuffed behind his back arms.

Tch! I feel sorry for the poor sod dying here would have been a lot better than receiving Beowolfs hospitality.

Lilith thought because she knew that Beowolf extremely hated racists since he was unlucky to be born in eastern germany after its split as she locked her gaze onto the commander's 4D armband.

Even a numbskull like her could recognize what it meant so Beowolf was going to give him extra special care since if there was one thing that Beowolf hated more than racists it was nazis.

...

The two MPs unceremoniously seated the handcuffed commander onto an aluminum chair then one of the soldiers cuffed the handcuffs to the chain fixed to the REAPER's interrogation rooms floor.

While the other one grabbed the language translator from the aluminum table and glued it to the commander's right temple.

After they were done they wordlessly exited the dimly illuminated room.

"You know normally I would just jack you up with a truth serum since I prefer to do it in a civilized way..."

Beowolf started saying as he stood up from his chair behind the table facing the commander and walked to him revealing his jacketless figure that was even better than Fiorenzos.

"...but you just piss me off in every possible way so I'm going to do this the old-fashioned way and I'm going to enjoy it"

Beowolf finished as he sat down on the table right in front of the commander and leaned in towards him causing his dog tags hanging from his neck to jingle.

"I..."

Just as the commander opened his lips Beowolf punched his face with a right hook so strong that it immediately dislocated his jaw.

How?! How is this possible im a seventh-order warrior! Don't tell me his an eight-order or higher warrior?! But I don't feel even an ounce of mana coming out of him!

The terrified commander who couldn't make heads or tails of what was happening because it was his first time seeing someone strong enough who had no mana whats so ever radiating from him easily dislocate a seventh-order warrior's jaw.

Thought as he with great effort and excruciating pain spitted out a few broken teeth with his bloody saliva.

"You don't talk unless I ask you a question got it!?"

Beowolf roared as he grabbed the commander's dislocated jaw and applied some pressure causing the commander to start trashing from the inhuman pain he was feeling as tears started leaking out from his eyes while he feverishly tried to nod his head.

"Good now then let's start with your name"

Beowolf said as he let go of the commander's jaw and sat back down on the table.

Tch! What a wimp I didn't even brake a sweat yet and the fucker is already squirming like a pig being slaughtered.

Beowolf thought as he watched the already covered in a cold sweat from head to toe commander trying to catch his breath only for a smell of urine to assault his nose.

What the f...?

Beowolf started cursing in his mind as he lowered down his head and stopped after seeing a stain on the commander's pants.

...(Beowolf)
