Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

Chapter 302: "Son of God", "Cake"

Inside the eastern channel of the Port of Eden.

Even though the space was spacious enough to allow flying side by side, the two Vikings were still one after the other, escorting the Thunder in the center of the formation.

When the pilots looked towards the front of the field of vision, they found that a huge gate was slowly unfolding to both sides, and at the same time, bright light was poured into this dim channel.

Seeing this, the pilots slowed down, driving Viking and Thunder gradually approaching the gate.

And this gate is numbered "4".

At this moment, all kinds of caliber artillery guns in the port of Eden are aiming their muzzles at Gate 4 one after another.

On the preparation platform closest to Gate 4, there are also ten APUs who are ready to fight, as well as Admiral Okar and the guard company.

As the elite of the resistance army, the soldiers of the guard company wore light gray training uniforms, relatively sophisticated armor and helmets, and held standard stun guns or small-caliber live ammunition weapons.

Waited a moment. .

Okar and his party saw the flight formation pass through the gate and enter the port.

Hover, descend, prepare to moor to the platform.

However, before the two Vikings were about to touch the ground, they were converted from fighter planes to ground armored units in the eyes of the Edenians and even Okar.

"Boom! Boom!"

Two Vikings several times larger than the APU landed on the platform, and also used four rotating Gauss cannons to deter the APU and the guard company.

The warplane with deformable structure...

Okar, who witnessed the whole process of Viking's transformation, felt the technology mastered by Umbrella more intuitively.

Viking was responsible for shocking and confrontation, while Thunder landed and stopped completely. As the pilot opened the nose door, the six gladiators walked out of the cabin first and stood in front of the door in an inverted "V" formation.

This group of elite troops did not lift the parallel bolt guns placed on the outer armor of the left arm, nor did they activate the locking function of the plasma shoulder cannon, but remained silent, looking down at the guard company that aimed the muzzle at them.

Then Angron, Victor, Mark and others left the cabin in turn.

"…"

Okar and the soldiers of the guard company raised their heads more and more, indicating that Angron was getting closer.

When the angle is fixed...

Angron had come not far from Okar, still smiling, as if the previous conflict had never happened, and he was the first to speak:

"The commander of Umbrella's Eighth Legion, Angron, must be Admiral Femini Ocar."

"..." Okar was a little stunned, and his expression was a little frozen.

The soldiers of the guard company were stunned, and they were in the same state as Victor, Mark and the others when they first saw Angron.

but…

Aside from Victor, Mark and the others at the moment were obviously not calm, and there was even more fear in the eyes that were cast on Angron.

Just now, the front-line base and the two electromagnetic battleships fell in an instant, and all the rebels had no ability to resist, all of which were written by Angron.

Mark saw with his own eyes that Angron raised his right hand, and his body burst into a faint light. After that, they arrived at the Port of Eden safe and sound.

This is beyond what Mark and the others can understand.

Human beings have an instinctive fear of the unknown, especially the powerful unknown, whether friendly or not.

As for Angron's ability to "raise his hand to shine", it was because of the use of psionic coercion. He also sensed the fear of Mark and his group, but he would not give any explanation.

Because Angron learned a vital piece of information from his father, that is, there is no other dimension in this universe, and he, as well as the pure psionic energy contained in the Astartes, will not cause any harm to this universe. any impact.

At this time, Okar, who had never seen Angron release his spiritual energy, quickly adjusted his mentality and nodded immediately:

"Yes, that's right, I'm Okal."

"Very good." Angron said bluntly: "Presumably all of you high-level officials in Eden should have understood the unpleasant first negotiation just now.

In order to save time for both of you and me, and to liberate all human beings as soon as possible, then please call upon all the high-level officials of your Eden for a second negotiation. "

"Of course." Okar had no objection, and waved his hand to the left: "Actually, the Eden Council is ready, just wait for Mr. Angron to arrive, please come with me."

Saying that, Okar looked at Victor, Mark and the others who were standing behind Angron, and said in a low tone:

"Major Polyyev went to the parliament with us, and the others were temporarily taken to the detention center for further interrogation."

"Yes, General." Victor stepped forward

And several guards and even soldiers also left the team and came to Mark and others to be escorted around them.

Next.

Angron left behind two gladiators, cooperated with two Vikings to guard the Thunder, and followed Okar with four gladiators to the elevator of this platform.

Step into a lift large enough to hold ten APUs and numerous soldiers, so there is no need for Angron to stoop down.

The gate is closed.

The lift starts.

Standing in the center, Angron took advantage of his height to observe the outside world through the protective net. Soon, the elevator carried them out of the military fortress-like port and descended into a tunnel.

Watching the lights go by one by one.

In less than half a minute, the tunnel scene stopped abruptly and was replaced by an extremely spacious underground city with numerous "stone pillars" and numerous metal platforms and buildings.

Angron estimated that the "stone pillars" were at least 60 to 70 meters wide and about 200 meters high. The overall appearance was not smooth and round, like the load-bearing columns of this underground space.

And there are many caves excavated around the "stone pillar" for the people here to live.

At this time, Okar sighed to Angron with a bit of melancholy: "This is Eden. It is our military's best efforts to protect it, and it is also a shelter for millions of human beings."

"…"

Angron just nodded with a smile and didn't answer.

In fact, here is a closed colony built by hollowing out the interior of asteroids with a diameter of more than 20 kilometers in the main universe in order to mine the mineral resources of the asteroid belt for a long time.

Therefore, colonies often install large-scale simulation equipment on the top to simulate natural scenery such as sunny days, thunderstorms, or starlight at night, and give psychological hints to people living in colonies to avoid long-term depression.

In contrast, Eden without analog technology...

Even if the top has alternative lighting equipment, the space is wide enough, but it is still unavoidable to be restrained or even imprisoned.

In the main universe, people can travel freely and leave the closed and repressed asteroid colonies, but people living in Eden, once they leave and go to the ground, they will only end up being hunted by machines.

Although it is a sanctuary, Angron believes that Eden is more like the second "cage" specially prepared by the machine for human beings. The second cage in reality.

Of course, humans in the game cannot see this clearly, but as an outsider, especially Angron who is a Primarch, he can see through it at a glance.

That's why he didn't respond to Okal's emotion.

reach the bottom.

The gates are opened to both sides, walk out of the elevator and continue to transfer to an orbital train, rushing to the "stone pillar" in the center of Eden.

Fortunately, Eden's railroad train has no carriages, but is only a "slab" with a fence, so that Angron and the four gladiators can also ride smoothly.

When they left the hall and drove into the dungeon, they were busy with different jobs, and the residents in old work clothes were all attracted by the terrifyingly tall Angron.

! !

Some residents were shocked, but many more...

"What the great priest said is very true! God really sent his heirs to the mortal world to redeem sinners like me!"

"It's the son of God...! It's the son of God!"

"The peace I've been waiting for will come at last! Great!"

Excited, excited, and shouting about "priests," "sinners," "redemption," and "son of God" inhabitants, or... believers.

see this scene.

Angron's expression remained the same, but his eyes were filled with undisguised disgust.

In fact, from the information he got from Victor, he learned that there was a church called "Son of God" in Eden.

Based on many "records" in the Bible, this church convinces the Edenites that one day in the future, God will send children down to earth again, leading them, sinners, to defeat the machines and return to the surface.

The church has existed for many years. According to Victor's description, it was officially established more than half a century ago, almost in 085 of the Eden calendar.

Angron could understand that human beings in the last days need a belief, a hope for redemption.

only…

Religion is established by people, but people have selfish thoughts, so this "son of God" will inevitably be mixed with various interests and power disputes.

Psionic perception told Angron that Victor, Okal, and some soldiers of the guard company were also full of disgust and contempt for believers, or religion.

After all, whenever the army successfully defended Eden, or made progress in the battle against the machines, it would be called "God bless" by the church.

If the battle is lost, the church will say, "The army did not pray to God, it is a sinner!" And so on.

Moreover, under the desperate circumstances of the last days, the vast majority of Edenites pin their hopes on the so-called "God" and "God's children", resulting in an increasingly large and long-lasting church.

Now, when the believers see the godlike Angron and the gladiators, they naturally regard them as the "sons of God" described by the church.

"…"

Seeing these phenomena, Angron knew that his arrival would definitely endanger some of the "pampered places" and the "cake" that a few "worms" had enjoyed for a long time.

After about half an hour.

The train travels through the dungeon, enters the interior of the central pillar, and stops at one of the platforms.

Get off the train.

Angron saw a group of soldiers much better equipped than the guard company, guarding a woman in a red robe and a richly decorated head who happened to get off another train and faced them across the two tracks.

This woman is the priest of the "Son of God", Lucis.

Seeing this, Victor sneered with disdain: "Oh, the magic stick is here too."

"Oh? She's what the major called a magician? Well... just looking at the dress, it's true." Angron responded with interest.

"…"

Okal didn't say anything, but nodded slightly, "betraying" the admiral's actual thoughts.

At this time, the three seemed to be standing on the same front invisibly.

On the other hand, Lucis, whom they called a god, was as shocked as when everyone first saw the Primarch, but in order to maintain a noble and calm image of a priest, he tried his best to restrain himself from exclaiming.

Afterwards, Lucis and his party walked into the nearby passage and disappeared.

Okar also led the crowd away from the platform, entered the passage that was relatively short for Angron, took another elevator, and went straight to the top floor of the stone pillar.

——————

Shortly after.

The most central area of ​​Eden, the Parliament Hall.

Its main body is fan-shaped, with tiers of stepped seats, enough to accommodate more than 500 people to discuss important matters about Eden here.

At this time, the hall was filled with members representing different classes, positions or residential areas, as well as several senior military generals headed by Okar, and of course Lucis representing the "Son of God".

Angron was seated by the staff, who hurriedly prepared and built an exclusive seat of the right size, and sat in the front position on the right side.

There were no figures of the four gladiators, indicating that these giants obeyed the Primarch's orders and stayed outside for the time being.

However, Victor stood at the front of the hall and told everyone present that when their Abraham was on a reconnaissance mission, they discovered the army of machines that were preparing to attack Eden, and that the battleship crashed and was rescued by Umbrella.

After listening to the narration, everyone's demeanor was different, ranging from joy and doubt, to solemn and worry.

"Major Polyyev...you mean the army of machines has been completely defeated by Umbrella?" asked one of the MPs.

"Yes." Victor turned his head to look at Angron, who was sitting not far away, and continued:

"According to what the Umbrella commander said, that's right, it's just the specific action process, and I have no right to know the authenticity of the results."

"Thanks to Major Polyyev for his report." Okar timely led the topic to Umbrella and asked Angron:

"Please Mr. Angron to help us solve the puzzle, where did you Umbrella come from, what is your purpose, and, how can you confirm what the major said, you have defeated the army of machines?"

heard.

Angron stood up and left his seat in the face of different eyes, and took over from Victor and stood at the front of the hall.

At this time, everyone had already passed the "height shock" period, and they were no longer surprised by Angron.

Come to the front of the hall.

Angron took out a card-sized chip from his uniform pocket and placed it in his left hand with his flat palm. Immediately afterwards, he cast a large holographic screen for everyone present, showing the "machine corpse sea" directly above Eden.

And showed a kind smile as always, and said: "This is the scene of the surface. If you don't believe it, you can send people to investigate. As for where we came from..."

talking.

Angron switched the screen content of the holographic screen and continued: "It is difficult to explain to everyone, but the purpose of our coming here is to completely liberate mankind.

Negotiating with you is also my father's intention to prepare everyone present, and even the whole of Eden, to rebuild human civilization. "
