Warhammer: From the Devouring C'tan Fragments
Chapter 256 First Hearing
Shi Nuo and the others exchanged glances. Although they still had some doubts in their hearts, they were still somewhat tempted by the wonderful life that Magrath had described. After all, their current living conditions were far too poor, and if they could truly improve, that would be a good thing.
They have never thought about being loyal to anyone. They are just a group of ordinary people living under the rule of the empire. They are struggling for survival every day and have no other choice.
"Sir, is what you said true?" Shi Nuo raised his head, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes, staring at Magrath and others.
The beautiful scene described by Magrath deeply attracted Schno and his party. They could not help but indulge in it and longed to live such a life. Even if they were regarded as heretics in the state religion, as long as they could live in such an environment, what was the harm?
"Of course, everything I said is true. Why should I deceive you, the defeated soldiers? Is there anything about you that is worth me deceiving you?" Magrath lowered his head and answered sincerely.
After listening to Magrath's words, Shi Nuo and his companions pondered for a moment, feeling that what he said made perfect sense. After all, they had nothing left now, nothing to lose, and it was not worth it for others to deceive them. With this thought, their doubts gradually dissipated.
"Thank you, sir!" Shi Nuo and his group bowed sincerely to Magrath and the others. Their hearts were filled with gratitude because these people gave them hope and protection.
"Stand up! No need to kneel on the ground. Under the command of the great Lord of the Stars, no one is worthy of your kneeling."
Magrath spoke, his voice filled with authority. He glanced at Shi Nuo and his companions, as if he could see into their hearts. "Except, of course, the great Star Lord."
He added, a hint of awe in his tone.
Upon hearing this, Shi Nuo and his companions quickly stood up, still bowing their heads in respect. They knew that in this world, only gods were worthy of the highest respect. And as the messenger of the Star Lord, Magras naturally commanded their respect as well.
Magrath looked at the reactions of Schno and his group and nodded with satisfaction. He knew he had successfully established his authority, earning the survivors' trust and reliance. All he had to do next was lead them toward a better future.
"We understand." Shi Nuo and his group lowered their heads and answered in unison.
Their voices were filled with respect and obedience. They dared not neglect Magrath's request in the slightest. After all, in this world, survival was the most important thing.
As for what Magrath said about the need to kneel down and worship the great Lord of the Stars, Shi Nuo and his party did not think there was any problem with it.
They are fully aware of the power and majesty of the gods and take it for granted. The gods require sincere worship to express their piety and awe.
"Let's go! Take us to your survivor camp to check it out." Magrath continued to speak to Shi Nuo.
His sharp eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all obstacles. He wanted to understand the living conditions of these survivors so that he could better help them.
Shi Nuo nodded: "My Lords, we will lead the way."
"Let's go." Magrath said lightly.
"Yes." Shi Nuo turned around and led the way.
Shi Nuo couldn't help but feel lucky in his heart that he had met these powerful people. Otherwise, it would be hard to imagine what their fate would be.
The best outcome would be death at the hands of the green-skinned orcs. Falling into the hands of the green-skinned orcs alive would be unimaginable torture.
As for how these people discovered the underground fortress, Shi Nuo understood that this question was not something he should consider now. Since the other party already knew of the existence of the underground fortress, whether he and others led them or not, they would go to the underground fortress to receive the survivors.
When Shi Nuo and his surviving companions walked out of the passage where they had fought, they discovered that the passage outside was also filled with the corpses of green-skinned orcs.
Moreover, looking at the corpses of these green-skinned orcs, all of them were killed by cold weapons. Not a single green-skinned orc was killed by guns. This is enough to prove that the opponent's powerful melee strength is simply not something that their small survivor camp can resist.
"By the way, what's your name?"
Magrath looked at Schno and his group who were leading the way in front, and was stunned by the green-skinned orc corpses on the ground, and couldn't help but ask.
After communicating with the other party for such a long time, Magrath still didn't know the names of these survivors, which made him feel that he had made a mistake.
"Sir, my name is Shi Nuo." Shi Nuo responded quickly and respectfully.
"My name is Magras, and I'm a squadron leader. You can just call me Captain Magras from now on. That's what they all call me." Magras said calmly.
Magrath was still more interested in Shi Nuo. He admired Shi Nuo very much because he could lead a group of ordinary human survivors to fight against the green-skinned orcs for so long.
If Shi Nuo chose to join the army, whether it was the navy or the space marines, he would be able to quickly stand out. Even if he did not join the army, there would be no loss to him, it would just be a matter of building good relationships in advance.
"Captain Magrath!" After hearing Magrath's self-introduction, Shi Nuo quickly changed his words and shouted.
An old hand like Schnuo, who has been in the lower class of the planet Milzhi for so long, naturally understood why Magras introduced himself to him. It was obvious that he admired him. Naturally, Schnuo would not be ungrateful and continued to call Magras "Sir", which was an insult to the other party.
"Keep leading the way!" Magrath said with satisfaction.
"Yes, Captain Magrath." After coming to his senses, Schno continued to lead Magrath and his party through the dim passage, heading towards the underground fortress.
The underground passage was like a maze, and one had to keep looking for the correct path, otherwise one would be trapped inside. However, with the guidance of Shi Nuo and his team, it only took them about half an hour to reach the outside of the underground fortress.
Magrath checked the distance between the underground fortress and the surface, which was more than 15,000 meters. No wonder even the deep space radar did not scan this place at the first time. There was a thick layer of rock on the underground fortress, which blocked the scanning of the deep space radar.
"Captain Magras, I'll go over and tell them to open the door! If I don't explain it to them clearly, they will strictly abide by the rules I set and won't easily open the door to the underground fortress."
After stopping outside the underground fortress, Schno turned and spoke respectfully to Magrath.
"Go!" Magrath nodded to Schno.
"Thank you Captain Magrath for your understanding."
