Traveling through time, I'm making pancakes in Warhammer

Chapter 204 Suggestions

The smell on the back of the necks of the Sisters of Silence resembles the ash left after burning the leaves of some aromatic plants. This smell does not come from any perfume, but from their daily bathing, prayers, and incense burning. Over the years, this smell has been pickled into their bones.

Now on the battlefield, the smell of wood ash is mixed with the smell of gunpowder, some engine oil and sweat. This smell cannot be called fragrance in the narrow sense, but it is definitely not unpleasant.

Howard thought his movements were very slight, but Sister Silent still noticed something was wrong. Sister Silent raised her chainsaw sword to block the huge mouth of a Gushger that was biting towards him, and then inserted the entire grenade launcher into the throat of the monster, firing continuously and finally killing the opponent.

After dealing with the enemy in front of her, Sister Silent turned around and looked at Howard who was tied to her back, her eyes clearly questioning his previous behavior.

amount……

Howard blinked, then decided to tell the truth: "You smell good."

Howard might have been ashamed to say this in the past, but now he is a man who has experienced many ups and downs. When he was coaxing Freya, he was talking nonsense and was not embarrassed at all. So what's wrong with telling the truth now?

After getting Howard's answer, Sister Silent just glared at him unfriendlyly, then turned around and continued to fight with the enemies who were rushing up.

But Sister Silent did not have no reaction to Howard's words. She then tightened the rope that bound Howard, perhaps as a small revenge.

As untouchables, what they have received the most from childhood to adulthood is the abuse of others. Becoming a Sister of Silence is the best outcome for being an untouchable. These poor people who have been hated since birth finally have a place where they can be recognized and realize their value. That is why the Sisters of Silence are so loyal to the Empire.

But even after becoming Sisters of Silence, they were rarely praised. Even if they were, it was mostly for their bravery. No one had ever said such words to them, so the Sisters of Silence naturally understood Howard's words as a mockery of the stench of her soul.

Howard also guessed that the nun probably misunderstood what he meant. What he should do now is to continue to praise her to clear up the misunderstanding and try to win the favor of the Silent Sister, but Howard chose to keep quiet.

He didn't need the Sister of Silence's favor, especially not by trying to gain her favor through such vulgar conversation.

But Howard still spoke, but instead of continuing to praise Sister Silence, he poured a bucket of cold water on her head:

"Even if you break into the orcs' base camp...what can you do?"

Without the support of a large force, even if this small group of scouts broke into the orcs' lair, it would be useless. It is so difficult to advance on the battlefield outside the Blackwater Festival area. Once they really break into the orcs' occupied point, what awaits the imperial army will be more intense artillery fire and more brutal battles.

Wanting to behead the orc warboss is even more unrealistic. The Blackwater Festival area cannot be too small just by listening to its name. Even if this team breaks through the outermost defense, they have only stepped into the threshold of this area. The real boss of the orcs is staying in the innermost and most solid room.

And even if the orc war boss also got angry and came to fight in person, with the existing Sisters of Silence and Sisters of Battle who were at most Astartes level, Howard couldn't think of any possibility of them winning unless the bacon on the throne of Terra noticed the battlefield here and promoted a few demon princes on the spot... Oh no, promoted a few living saints on the spot.

The moment Battle Sister Gloria received the order, she immediately understood that this was just a political show fueled by the lives of nearly a million human soldiers. However, by the time Gloria knew the order, it was too late for her to kill the person who gave the order. These Sisters of Silence were responsible for guarding the orc wizards, who had to be transported and deployed to the battlefield in advance, so the Sisters of Silence would probably know the specific orders earlier than other soldiers.

But Sister Silent did not answer Howard's question, nor did she even intend to answer, either verbally or non-verbally.

The Sisters of Silence were simply telling Howard one message by constantly killing enemies: they obeyed orders.

Even if the order is for them to die.

"I can help you," Howard continued.

But Sister Silent still ignored him, because she could see that he was just an ordinary mortal, and his fighting ability was not even as good as that of the soldiers used to fill the line.

The identity of this mortal as a suspected evolved soulless being might be of some use in the future, but not now.

In the eyes of the nun, everything this mortal said now might just be nonsense made up by him in order to save his life in excessive fear.

Howard also knew that his empty words would be useless, and he also knew that the Sister of Silence was dismissive of him, but he also knew that what he was going to say next would completely make the Sister of Silence pay enough attention to him.

"There are elves active on this battlefield."

When Howard finished saying this, the nun paused for a moment, then she exerted her strength to force back the orcs that were fighting with her, and then quickly retreated from the front of the team to the middle of the team where the fighting was relatively less intense.

Sister Silent put Howard down and looked straight into his eyes. Her meaning was very simple, which was to ask Howard to continue.

"You can ask Gloria for the details. Basically, there are more than just humans and orcs on this battlefield right now. There's also a clan of Eldar operating in secret. They're the Death Army," Howard explained. "It was the leader of the Death Army who awakened the Imperial Regent. So, we can assume these Eldar aren't enemies."

"Based on my observations and judgment, those Eldar are also heading here for the Orc base camp. They're just carrying out a special mission, but this mission shouldn't conflict with your goals, and may even partially align with them. Those Death Troopers carrying out this special mission suffered casualties due to an unexpected accident before entering the Blackwater Section, so completing their mission should be equally difficult. I think you can seek out this Death Trooper, as there's a possibility of cooperation between you two."

After saying this, Howard looked Sister Silent in the eye and said, "Sister, this is probably the only way for you and your comrades to survive. I know you no longer care about your own life or death, but each of your lives is a bargaining chip for the Emperor. Even the most insignificant chip should not be thrown away in a meaningless place."
