Chapter 2 - 56

  Chapter 56: A man's romance is... boarding (Part 2)

  [In the fourth week, the situation on the ship changed slightly.]

  [Because the ship you are on is an armed cargo ship. ]

  [The daily task is to disguise as a transport ship and provide cover for your team's boarding. ]

  [So the weapon system on the cargo ship is only equipped with a laser cannon weapon array and a torpedo launcher. ]

  [This is not a ship of strategic value, especially for the entire expedition fleet.]

  [Even so, a strange team of navigators, under the escort of Astartes, forcibly took over the bridge of the freighter.]

  [The captain of the armed freighter nicknamed 'Blackbeard' and his crew were relieved of their command by Astartes and driven to the lower cabin of the freighter.]

  [The living conditions in the lower cabin are far worse than the ordinary cabin where your team is.]

  [Even though he was treated so humiliatingly, Captain Blackbeard expressed very maturely that perhaps Warmaster Horus had his own considerations.]

  [Captain Blackbeard also hopes that other crew members can maintain a good attitude and be more patient. ]

  [He always believed that the 16th Legion led by Warmaster Horus would definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation after eliminating the dangerous alien forces.]

  [You stood at the cabin door and listened to the captain's advice.]

  [You disagree with the captain's words. ]

  [As a bystander, you believe that everything is sliding into an irreversible abyss. ]

  [You begin to sneak into the ventilation ducts repeatedly, trying to get in touch with other team members except the team commander.]

  [After your unremitting efforts and the full help of the robot servant outside the door, you have successfully contacted all team members. ]

  You had an in-depth conversation with them, trying to make them understand their situation.

  [Unfortunately, only five members of the entire team, including the commander, agree with your 'delusion'. ]

  ["An internal rebellion is brewing within the 16th Legion, the Luna Wolves…" You said to the team members carefully, even choosing your words with great care.]

  ["The impending rebellion? Could it be related to Warmaster Horus? Come on, my friend! That's the banner of the Great Crusade! The Warmaster of the Imperium of Man! He's the son of the Emperor!" A member of the team who held opposing opinions sneered. ]

  [You remain silent and no longer have any contact with the other party. ]

  [In the fifth week, the situation on the armed freighter worsened.]

  [Due to long-term confinement and reduced food distribution]

  [A group of subhuman beastmen stationed on an armed cargo ship, responsible for logistics, could not bear the hunger and caused a riot in the lower cabin. ]

  [However, just as the commotion began, the roar of the grenade launchers and the splashing of the lasers attracted the attention of all the crew members.]

  [Two Astartes from the Luna Wolves calmed the anger of a hundred beastmen in just three minutes.]

  [Instantly, the entire lower cabin was covered with the flesh and blood of countless beastmen, and blood flowed like a river.]

  [Maybe it's your instigation and your grief over the loss of the rabbit. ]

  [Captain Blackbeard could no longer tolerate the barbaric behavior of the Astartes and was unwilling to let them continue to act recklessly. ]

  [He led a group of malnourished crew members, forced his way onto the bridge, and delivered an impassioned speech.]

  ["I have served the Great Crusade! I have shed blood for Warmaster Horus! I want to see…" Captain Blackbeard, who was strangled by an Astartes stationed on the bridge, shouted at the top of his lungs. ]

  [Then Captain Blackbeard was thrown out of the bridge and fell heavily into the plastic-steel corridor.]

  [You, hiding among the crew, hurried forward to help him, but the pale-faced black-bearded captain grabbed you by the collar.]

  ["Hurry up and inform your commander… the armed cargo ship, no! There is something wrong with the navigation coordinates of the entire fleet!" Captain Blackbeard was sweating profusely and whispered in your ear. ]

  [In the sixth week, you learned the rotation schedule of the five Astartes on the armed cargo ship through the crew's tip-offs.]

  [You took advantage of the opponent's extremely short rotation time and successfully sneaked into the armory through the maintenance pipeline. ]

  [You stole four incendiary assault rifles and ten laser pistols.]

  [Due to time and weight considerations, you can only choose to give up combat armor. ]

  [You returned to the lower cabin with your only weapons.]

  [Captain Blackbeard and the commander are waiting for your return. ]

  [Ever since Captain Blackbeard discovered the anomaly in the navigation coordinates, he has established a united front with your team.]

  [This also expanded the number of loyalists to more than a hundred people. ]

  [However, for the nearly 1,000 crew members on the armed cargo ship, you are still a minority. ]

  [You assigned the explosive assault guns to the commander and the other four team members.]

  [Their mission is to raid the weapons depot and deal with the two Astartes stationed there.]

  [Your mission with Captain Blackbeard is even more difficult. ]

  [You need to attract the two Astartes stationed in the lower cabin and the ordinary cabin. ]

  [Buy more time for the commander and his men to take action. ]

  [In the seventh week, a 'riot' occurred in the lower cabin of the armed cargo ship.]

  [You incited the other crew members to occupy the kitchen through your words, declaring that you would no longer tolerate the food distribution system.]

  [At the same time, Captain Blackbeard led his loyal crew to forcibly shut down the cargo ship's engine and took control of the Geller force field.]

  [The continuous situation completely distracted Astartes' attention. ]

  [They tried to calm most of the crew and get them back to their cabins.]

  [However, when the roar of grenade launchers was heard from the direction of the armory. ]

  [Astartes' appeasement completely turned into a massacre. ]

  [The unarmed crew members were like a hot knife through butter for the Astartes in power armor.]

  [You grip a laser pistol tightly and pull the trigger in an attempt to cause some damage to the Astartes.]

  [The roar of the bombs and the flying limbs and arms continue to stimulate your nerves. ]

  [The tragic scene before your eyes makes you grit your teeth. ]

  ["Why! Why would the Moon Wolves of Horus Warmaster treat us like this!" A crew member who knew nothing about anything asked loudly with shaking hands. ]

  [He tried to straighten his back and glared at the Astartes in front of him whose power armor was stained with blood.]

  [However, the only answer he got was the bolter in the hands of the Astartes.]

  [Accompanied by a huge roar, the angry crew was blown into countless pieces of flesh and blood, scattered on the plastic steel deck.]

  [One minute later, a large number of crew members were killed or injured.]

  [The two Astartes slowly turned their sights, and aimed their grenade launchers at you standing among the corpses.]

  [You take a deep breath and exhale slowly.]

  [You raise your laser pistol.]
