Chapter 453: You Also Joined the Alliance
When Zhong Jihua saw Martins and his group of Phoenixes rushing in, his heart sank to the bottom.
But he still tried to appear fearless: "Martins, my brother..."
"Shut up, you traitor!"
Martins walked in with a heart full of anger. The dozens of Phoenixes that came with him had already started fighting with the Ash Dead.
But no one bothered Zhong Jihua.
Before coming in, the Chapter Master made it clear that this was his opponent.
He wanted to kill this traitor himself.
"Don't be so serious..."
Zhong Jihua spread his hands and tried to say something, but the next moment he took out the grenade launcher very quickly and shot at Martins while he was speaking.
His movements were extremely fast, as if they had been honed through thousands of trials and tribulations.
But Martins was clearly on guard.
"Ugly trick!" He used his strongest shoulder armor to block the explosive bullet and said sarcastically. But at the same time, Zhong Jihua's magic sword had already slashed in front of him.
The magic sword in his hand was a finely crafted power sword that he had worn in the past in the war group. Now it was infected by the power of the evil god and had an ominous blood color. At the beginning of the battle, he tried to suppress Martins with his wild offensive.
Two giants wearing Terminator power armor started a desperate fight!
Martins tried to block it, but in the sword fight, he was obviously at a disadvantage.
"You have never been my opponent before, and this time is no exception!" Zhong Jihua said with a grin.
He is telling the truth.
Zhong Jihua was in the same batch as him and entered the Phoenix.
During their recruit period, both of them showed outstanding potential and were once called the hope of the next generation of the chapter.
And they lived up to expectations.
However, there is still a certain difference in their abilities. Martins is more of a leader and has a better command talent, while Zhong Jihua is better in swordsmanship, shooting, and physical talent.
This naturally led to different development directions. Naturally, Martins became a captain at a relatively young age for a Space Marine. At the same time, although Zhong Jihua had the title of the Chapter's Champion Swordsman, he was still different from a captain.
But this does not affect the deep brotherhood between the two - at least that's what Martins himself thinks.
During the Atonement Expedition, he was so heartbroken when he learned that the entire company that Zhong Jihua was in was missing and defeated.
How heartbroken he was at that time, how sad and angry he was when he knew that Zhong Jihua had become a traitor!
If they were just deserters like Blevins, it would be fine, but they were rebelling in droves! In an organized way!
If those one or two hundred Phoenix veterans had not defected, would the outcome of the Phoenix's last battle have been different? With twice as many Phoenix veterans, would more people have come back alive, so that the reconstruction would not have been as difficult?
He really hated Zhong Jihua!
However, no matter how much he hated him, there was one thing that could not be changed - after so many years, he still could not beat Zhong Jihua.
His strength level has certainly improved over the years, and he has even become more adept at using the Terminator power armor.
However, Zhong Jihua's level is still above him.
Martins' progress over the years was not as good as the evil power of the blood god that Zhong Jihua had received. This evil power further strengthened his flesh and blood, so that his body was further strengthened, and his strikes became more powerful.
After connecting with several swords, each time Martins' body swayed more than Zhong Jihua's, and each time he responded very passively. As the disadvantage accumulated, it turned into a defeat in a very short time.
On the contrary, Zhong Jihua became more and more excited as he chopped.
Defeat was imminent, and Martins sighed in his heart.
The next attack came from Zhong Jihua. Martins tried his best to raise his sword to block it, but it was obvious that he couldn't block it.
But at this moment, a flash of lightning burst out from his body.
The violent force that exploded directly shook away Zhong Jihua's magic sword.
The leader of the Ash Dead cautiously took a few steps back and looked at Martins in doubt.
Is this his power?
No, not really.
Martins could have released this special energy earlier. If he had done so, he would not have been beaten so badly by himself before.
However, he still held on until this point before using this power.
Zhong Jihua thought for a moment and said sarcastically, "You still call me a traitor? Look at what you look like now!"
"I was wondering where those immortal little blue men came from. It turns out you joined them too..."
"Shut up and die!"
Martins used a sword with lightning to force Zhong Jihua to speak back.
Although Zhong Jihua had not finished his words, because he had to concentrate on dealing with the heavy sword whose power had been greatly enhanced after the lightning, the ridicule in his eyes became more and more intense.
Whenever he had time, he would say, "How does it feel to join a powerful person in the sub-space? Isn't it more satisfying than believing in that false emperor who was full of lies?"
"Shameless traitor, don't confuse me with you!"
"Hahaha! Be honest, Martins!"
Although he was laughing, Zhong Jihua's heart was already cold.
Feeling the numbness in his arms and feeling the power of the Blood God dissipating in each collision, he knew that the game was over.
At this moment, I am trying to gain advantage through my words because there is nothing else to do. If I don't try to gain advantage through my words, what else can I do?
He would never expect Martins to spare his life.
That's impossible.
Finally, in a fierce counterattack, Martins's power sword with lightning penetrated Zhong Jihua's armor and pierced his heart.
Zhong Jihua was still struggling despite the severe pain, but in a flash, the lightning destroyed his heart and made his body weak.
Martins drew his sword very quickly again and stabbed again, piercing the second heart.
Blood was oozing out of Zhong Jihua's mouth. He stammered and whispered in a very weak voice:
"Don't trust the things in the subspace too much. None of them have good intentions..."
"I told you not to compare me to you."
"Really? Then I'll wait in hell..."
Before he could finish his words, Martins drew out his power sword and slashed across, chopping off Zhong Jihua's head.
The headless body fell to the cold metal floor.
Martins stood beside Zhong Jihua's body and took a deep breath.
He turned his gaze to the others who were still fighting.
Picking up the power sword whose lightning had not yet dissipated, Martins killed the remaining ashes.
