He wanted to reach out and pat his face to stimulate his falling consciousness, but the moment he tried, he found that he was so weak that he would fall to the ground if he pulled out one hand.

My head... is dizzy, and the remaining strength is being drained away bit by bit, just like my consciousness.

I'm dying?

Zhang Ge should have felt happy, but unfortunately, he was so shocked by the impact that he could not produce any unnecessary emotions.

Soon after this thought arose, darkness covered my eyes.

In the darkness, he seemed to see many people, but he felt that he could not see anyone clearly. The memories of the past flashed by like a movie, but he could not stop and see any part of it clearly.

I am dead?

It was not known whether it took forever or just a moment, but the three words reappeared in Zhang Ge's consciousness, but then everything was converging, and something seemed to be falling from the bottom up. Soon, from head to toe, he seemed to gradually feel his body again.

I'm not dead yet?

I barely managed to open my eyelids, and what came into view was the white ceiling. I tried to twist my neck to look around, but for a moment I could only tremble slightly.

Only after his body seemed to have recovered a little did he manage to turn his head to the side with great difficulty.

A striking red medical logo comes into view.

Is this a hospital? No, there shouldn't be such a transfer. Is this the infirmary in the church?

Then, the sluggish consciousness noticed another focus in its sight.

It was a person... I looked closely and compared that face with the ones in my memory.

It's Dominica.

There was a trace of sadness between her eyebrows, and if you looked closely you could see traces of tears. She was closing her eyes and clasping her hands together, praying silently.

If her job was not to take care of the patient, Zhang Ge might have been really moved. Unfortunately, the patient lying in bed who she didn't even notice was Zhang Ge herself.

He really didn't know whether to laugh out loud first or be moved by the fact that she was really trying her best to make him feel better.

However, if he had to choose someone whose absence would not affect his combat effectiveness and who would keep an eye on him, Dominica would indeed be the right person. Besides, the number of people seriously injured by the shock wave alone was probably too numerous to count, and they couldn't even perform all the surgeries. It was impossible for her to occupy a medical nun just to take care of herself.

After opening his eyes, Zhang Ge felt that his consciousness was quickly becoming clearer, and his body quickly recovered to the point where he could barely move his arms.

He rubbed the sheets with his fingers, making some noise, which attracted Dominica to look up.

Zhang Ge wanted to laugh at her and say something to ease the atmosphere, but at that moment, facing the other person's genuine smile of surprise, he couldn't say such words. Only four words remained on his lips, although his voice was so weak that even Zhang Ge himself was a little unbelievable:

"I'm alive."

Dominica nodded vigorously, then ran out of the door and quickly ran back with a medical sister.

The medical nun, who had relatively poor physical fitness, could not keep up with Dominica's speed and was basically dragged in.

But the medical sister didn't mean to waste time talking about it. After she came to the bed and saw Zhang Ge waking up, she took out a few incomprehensible medical instruments from the medical box on the waist of the power armor and operated them on Zhang Ge's body. From time to time, a faint scanning laser swept across, as if she was checking something.

Although Dominica was obviously very anxious, with her brows knitted together and she was rubbing her hands together, she knew that she couldn't make matters worse and could only stand by and worry.

Soon, after repeated examinations, the medical sister said:

"Colonel Zhang Ge, you've recovered well... To be more precise, you've completely recovered, but you're just adapting."

Zhang Ge wanted to nod when he heard this, but the medical nun immediately put her hand on the side of his head, and then she slowly followed his movements to let him nod, and continued:

"But I suggest you don't do too many unnecessary actions right now. Sister Dominica, I leave it to you."

"oh oh!"

After the medical sister withdrew her hand, Dominica immediately took over and placed her palm, still wrapped in power armor, on Zhang Ge's cheek. After a while, she seemed to feel that one hand was not enough, so she used both hands to hold up both sides.

In this position, Zhang Ge couldn't even turn his head and could only look into her sincere eyes.

However, in this situation, it would be awkward to close my eyes suddenly, so I could only wait until I recovered a little before I could say the second sentence:

"Let go... She meant... for you to take over and take care of me, not... you... Oh, forget it."

Chapter 68 Medical

Hearing what Zhang Ge said, Dominica immediately pulled her hand back and stood there uncomfortably as if she had done something wrong.

"I don't blame you... Sit down."

She nodded, sat aside, looked at Zhang Ge, hesitated for a moment and said:

"You're a good person. You saved me and gave me a chance to atone for my sins. So... I want you not to die. Ah, no, um... I mean, um, I don't want you to die, or something like that."

Zhang Ge looked at her helplessly, listening to her say some incoherent words.

However, he also roughly understood that this was a variant expression asking him to take care of his health. But even if he didn't want to die, how could he be left alone in the current situation?

Imagining the possible scene outside, Zhang Ge closed his eyes again. He had to adapt as quickly as possible. He didn't dare to think about how many opportunities he missed every second.

However, suddenly Zhang Ge felt as if something crawled under the quilt and held his hand. It was a hand wrapped in power armor and a little cold. Was it Dominica?

He opened his eyes and looked over. Dominica saw that he was stunned for a moment and said:

"Have I done something wrong again? Sorry, when I was very young, the elder sister was like this when I couldn't sleep. I thought..."

Seeing Dominica like this, Zhang Ge looked at her for a while and said:

"No, that's all. Tell me what happened after that thing fell."

She nodded, organized her sentences, and recounted bit by bit what happened after Zhang Ge fainted.

First, she mentioned that Zhang Ge had only been unconscious for a few hours, and then quickly recounted what had happened during those hours.

Just as Zhang Ge expected, after Chaos used the wreckage of the Imperial Navy's warships to drill through the hive's hull, it did not give Akaolan time to activate the void shield and directly crashed its own warship into the top of the tower.

However, fortunately for Akaolan, if he did not want the warship to be unable to stop and crash directly into the hive, then the warship must either be so strong that such a collision would not matter, such as a battleship or some warships that were directly transformed into living things by the power of the subspace, or the hull must be relatively small and able to stop.

The Chaos warship that crashed in this time was the latter, about the same size as a frigate, which meant that they could not bring in too many people.

Although some Chaos Space Marines were included, fortunately the ring fortress was not hit. The elite PDF and Astra Militarum joined the battle at the first time, and the troops below were being transported upwards continuously, so the battle situation temporarily entered a stalemate stage.

However, the situation is still not optimistic. Although the situation in other areas is relatively stable, the Chaos side has assembled elite troops to launch a high-intensity offensive on the Void Shield control area at the top of the tower. Now the control of the Void Shield is in jeopardy, and the Chaos army outside the city has also accelerated its advance.

Once control of the spire's void shield is lost, the hope of winning the war will be slim when the Chaos army outside the city pours in.

After listening to what Dominica said, Zhang Ge checked his current physical condition and felt that he was almost able to sit up. He asked with some doubt:

"I see. I have another question. I remember my injury wasn't very serious. Why did I recover so quickly?"

"Ah, because Officer Amelia gave you a few injections of medicine when her first aid almost failed. After that, your physical condition began to recover at an extremely fast speed. You didn't know about those medicines? We thought you and Officer Amelia had an appointment."

"How many injections??? Wait, first tell me what those potions look like!"

"Oh."

Dominica recalled it, and then used her remaining hand to describe the appearance of the medicine, while also gradually shattering Zhang Ge's lucky mentality.

I know, I know those medicines very well, and I put them there with my own hands.

It’s okay to just get the shot, but how many shots did you get?

Okay, okay, Amelia, you are playing like this, right? If I survive, when the Inquisition's heavenly army arrives, I will definitely report you harshly, accusing you of abusing the alien creations, so that you will regret your mistakes when I am shot. Just wait and see.

Wait, did I overlook something in what I just said?

After Zhang Ge calmed down, he suddenly realized this problem and asked again:

"Oli...where's the Titan that came into the city with us? Where did it go?"

"As for the Titan, it has remained in the Underhive and has not moved. Did you give her the order? I heard that the priests of the Mechanicus have been trying to make the Titan move, but they have all failed."

Well, at least Olivia still listens to me.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ge reminded her:

"Remember not to say in front of the Mechanicus that I—or anyone else—ordered the Titans. If you must, phrase it differently, like asking the Titans for something. Understand?"

"Oh, okay."

After saying that, Zhang Ge stretched out his palms to both sides, held the edge of the bed and sat up. After lifting the quilt, he waved his palms to let Dominica take back the other hand that she wanted to extend to support her.

"Raise your hand a little higher, the one I'm holding."

After moving his body to sit on the edge of the bed, Zhang Ge landed on the ground with both feet. Using her palm as a support, he tried to stand up. However, he failed several times and could only turn around and say:

"Forget it, come and support me and take me to the main hall of the church."

Dominica looked a little worried after hearing this, probably because she had considered what the medical sister had said before:

"Huh? But..."

"listen to me."

But Zhang Ge had no intention of continuing to sleep, so Dominica had no choice but to listen to him, helped him up, and walked out of the single room step by step.

When they left the ward, they were greeted by an extremely tragic scene. Large numbers of seriously injured soldiers and civilians were even placed in the corridors. The medical sisters were very busy, but there were only so many of them. Even if they worked at full capacity to treat the wounded, they could not take care of so many injuries.

Every minute and every second, someone died from their injuries. The sounds of painful howling, weak groans, and wordless gasps mixed with the sound of approaching footsteps.

Some of the wounded who were still conscious prayed desperately to Dominica as she passed by them. Some parents could not tell the difference between the nuns and begged her to save their seriously injured children.

However, neither Zhang Ge nor Dominica was able to do anything. Zhang Ge himself was a seriously injured soldier who had just recovered, and Dominica was just a novice nun not long ago. They could only comfort them with a forced smile while continuing to lead Zhang Ge away step by step.

Chapter 69: Not much more powerful than laser

Walking step by step through this scene that seemed like hell on earth, the open side door that allowed a view of the main hall finally appeared in Zhang Ge's eyes.

Different from the scene behind the side door, the main hall was filled with armed personnel in various costumes and various weapons, including law enforcers, Astra Militarum and PDF, but the largest number of people were armed believers without uniforms.

Although the wounded and sick passed through the main hall, they did not stay inside.

Zhang Ge stopped at the side door and carefully looked at the composition of the personnel.

Soon, he found that although there seemed to be a lot of people, there was not much actual combat power that could be mobilized. Ordinary armed believers or civilians could maintain order or intercept cultists, but leading them to face the chaos directly...the first thing to consider was whether their guns would suddenly point at friendly forces.

As expected, Zhang Ge saw familiar faces among these people.

The former deputy commander of the veteran, Yolanda, Burton, and even the captain of the guard team

It seemed that they already knew each other and were sitting in the same circle.

"Take me over there."

After pointing to the area where the four people were gathered, Zhang Ge said to Dominica, and then moved over little by little with her support.

The first person to notice Zhang Ge was the veteran. He immediately ran over, pushed through the crowd, and came to Zhang Ge. However, since it was wartime, he did not stand at attention and salute. He said directly:

"Colonel, the 1st Mechanized Infantry Regiment has assembled a total of 873 men, with approximately 20,000 more recruits awaiting induction."

"Twenty thousand, is the pass rate that high?"

Although the standards for military skills have been relaxed to take temporary conscription into consideration, willpower and resistance to corruption cannot be accumulated through momentary enthusiasm. Even with the motivation of speeches and parades, it shouldn't be that much.

Hearing Zhang Ge's question, he continued:

"Yes, they are mainly composed of 'former' PDF veterans who have just been discharged for less than a day, elite thugs from the Lower Nest Gang, 'body modification enthusiasts' whose bodies have been highly mechanized, and some civilians with strong wills. In addition, some remnants of the Astra Militarum have also applied for enrollment."

Okay...then just pretend it is. However, the people who inserted them into the team were killed before them, which was a rebellion against Tiangang.

"Where are they?"

"Assisting in the defense of the outer church."

After thinking for a while, Zhang Ge continued to ask:

"How far is the nearest war zone from here?"

"Roughly thirty kilometers. The defense line there is mainly composed of PDF, and the Sisters of Battle are also deployed there."

Thirty kilometers, this distance can be said to be right in your face. Not to mention medium and large caliber indirect fire artillery, if the space is open enough and the weather is good enough, even a laser cannon can hit you directly.

But those PDFs and combat sisters must have put considerable pressure on the enemy, otherwise they would definitely not mind freeing up some firepower to cover this obvious target church.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ge straightened his body again.
