Chapter 194 Stud
At the forefront of the battle between the Imperial Army and the Orc Army, two civilizations with a long history and the ability to navigate between galaxies... or rather, races, were fighting in the most primitive way.
Whether humans or orcs, they all felt that the other side's troops deployed on the battlefield seemed endless. In this situation, ordinary bullets could only hit or even injure a single target. So the two sides at the forefront of the battle almost simultaneously abandoned guns and artillery fire. They used all the sharp, thorny or weighted objects they could find to fight each other.
Human soldiers used military daggers and trench digging shovels to cut off the orcs' heads. Some soldiers even wielded crowbars used to pry open the tank's fuel tank and smashed an orc's head. The orcs responded by tearing the human's body apart with sharp, rusty swords.
Due to their short-term numerical advantage, the human line slowly pushed forward. Every step forward required the soldiers behind them to crawl over the corpses of their comrades or orcs, and then immediately became stepping stones for the soldiers behind them. The soldiers always bent over when stepping over the bodies of the dead, but this was not to mourn the dead, but to recover the dead's equipment.
There are two types of soldiers sent to the front line for the assault. One type is elite soldiers like Sister Gloria, and the other type is miscellaneous soldiers who were urgently recruited and have not even received proper training. These people may have been workers or farmers on other planets a few months or even weeks ago, but when the war on Karenya became tense, they were chosen to leave their homes and rush to an unknown battlefield.
The military brass had no expectations for these miscellaneous soldiers. Their primary function was to fill in the gaps, and therefore, they were the worst equipped. Most fill-in soldiers were issued only a thin, low-quality uniform and an old, damp, antique rifle from the bottom of a warehouse, likely unfired or maintained in over a decade, before heading into battle. Their ammunition and other equipment were entirely determined by the mood of the officer issuing them.
If they attack together with the real elites, they can at least help the elites share some of the firepower and bullets. If they can injure or kill a few orcs while sharing the firepower, it would be even more profitable.
As for the death toll and survival rate of these miscellaneous soldiers filling the line, it was never considered by anyone who could make important decisions.
The nun drove Howard across the battlefield, and the orcs, the giant dogs trained by the orcs, and even the human soldiers who blocked the way were all crushed by the nun who stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.
She controlled the direction of the motorcycle with one hand, and with the other hand she pulled out her chainsaw sword and dragged it on the ground, using the power of the motorcycle to chop up everything she hit along the way.
Gloria, wearing a full set of Battle Sister's power armor, blocked most of the bullets shot from the front and side for Howard like a shield. As for the bullets shot from behind, perhaps because Howard was lucky, or perhaps because Om Messiah was protecting him in secret, so even though Howard's body was stained red and green by the splattered blood, he still did not suffer any serious injuries.
Suddenly Howard felt that the light around him became dim. He looked up and found that the nun was carrying her passing under a mecha.
Perhaps Gloria could question whether the commander's decision to attack the city was foolish, but she also had to admit that she could not deny the determination behind the order.
After passing in front of the mecha, the nun couldn't help but look back. She recognized that it was a Hound-class Knight mecha. This light green-painted mecha was considered to be a very small type of mecha, but it was still nearly twice as tall as ordinary human soldiers and orcs. The Hound mecha also abandoned the machine gun and flamethrower, and instead used the hand axe and battle blade on the mechanical arm to clear a way among the beasts.
These mechas were directly commanded by the various ancient knight families on the planet rather than the governors of the star regions. They were able to persuade the knight families to join the war, even if they only sent a few small mechas as a response, but it was enough to show that the governors of the star regions had invested a lot of money.
Thinking of this, the nun was not happy, but became even more annoyed.
That idiot! The more he invests in this doomed war, the harder it will be for the humans to fight in the future. If these soldiers and knight mechs, who were finally summoned to fill in the gaps, were kept until reinforcements arrived for a joint attack, they might actually be able to break through the orc stronghold in the Blackwater Section.
Not long after she passed in front of the mecha, groups of orcs shouted "waaagh!" and broke through the defense line of the ground forces that were cooperating with the Hound mecha and rushed into the blind spot directly below the mecha. These greenskins raised the front of the car and fired at the weak parts of the mecha's transmission joints. Soon the mecha lost its balance and turned over to the ground. Then the orcs rushed forward, tore open and destroyed the reactor of the mecha.
Gloria had no intention of returning to provide support throughout the entire process. A knight mecha was certainly important, but it was not enough to decide the outcome of the battle. What she was looking for was something that could truly influence the outcome of the battle.
Gloria soon found her target. They were a group of people wearing black armor, with pigtails, all their hair except the pigtails shaved off, and tattoos on their scalps.
The Imperial anti-psychic, the Sisters of Silence.
And among this group of silent nuns, Gloria finally saw what she wanted to see but didn't want to see.
It was a group of orcs, about ten in number, who had been chopped into pieces and impaled together with iron chains.
Orc wizard.
There are also units among the orcs that can use psychic power, and these units are called orc wizards by humans.
The orcs' waaagh energy is an extremely special kind of spiritual energy. Once the waaagh energy is unleashed, every orc will become a supplier of this spiritual energy network, so the orcs' waaagh energy is often powerful to an incredible degree.
An orc shaman is an orc who can channel and utilize waaagh energy.
The psychics on the human side use psychic energy that comes from themselves, but the psychic energy used by the orc wizards is not like this.
Therefore, orc wizards are more likely to lose control.
During the long battle between humans and orcs, humans have gradually figured out some effective methods to deal with orcs. One of these methods is to use orc wizards to deal with the orcs in turn.
The Sisters of Silence are psychic black holes that can block all psychic perceptions around them. They suppress the resonance of the captured orc wizards with the waaagh energy generated by the orcs in the Blackwater Section, and then send these orc wizards to the place with the most concentrated waaagh energy before lifting the restrictions.
This operation is like connecting a low-power light bulb directly to an excess voltage. The light bulb will explode because it cannot withstand the sudden strong voltage, and the entire circuit network may also be paralyzed by a short circuit.
Gloria was both happy and unhappy. She was happy because this was something that could actually cause effective damage to the orcs in the Blackwater Section, but she was angry because that idiot had actually used all the resources of the human army on the planet Karenya in a political show.
