Liu Haodong has never been a resourceful person.
The various implant modifications of the Space Marines did not make Liu Haodong smarter, but made him more mentally stable, but he was still not a resourceful Space Marine.
Rubio checked Von der Leyen's current situation, and Von der Leyen, who was already crazy, screamed crazily at Rubio with red eyes.
It was as if Rubio was his father-killing enemy. Rubio had seen many such crazy World Eaters during the Battle of Istvaan III.
Among those loyalists who were stabbed in the back, many of the World Eaters looked like this. The betrayal and crazy stimulation made them complete madmen. Many of these crazy loyalists were even caught and imprisoned. The Red Butcher.
These loyalists who were imprisoned in the Red Butcher killed many other loyalists during Istvan 5.
Although they don't have the Red Butcher Terminator Power Armor, it doesn't have much impact. When they attack Ultramar later, they can just throw this guy to the Ultramarines.
With the verdict against Von der Leyen in mind, Rubio said to the captain: "Find a random room for this guy and throw him out."
After giving the order, Rubio looked at the room for a while. The room was large, but very messy.
The captain knew Rubio's identity, so he said to his staff: "Change a room for Mr. Von der Leyen."
Rubio could not care about Von der Leyen's identity, but the captain could not.
The staff did not know Rubio or his identity.
But Rubio only brought 20 Space Marines. The staff thought that Rubio was a captain. A captain would change the actual controller of the battleship. Isn't the order of the company adjutant Liu Haodong a little inappropriate?
The staff member has known the captain for many years, so he cautiously whispered: "Captain, is this the order from the adjutant?"
He also kindly reminded the captain that the adjutant is the boss of the 1,000 space warriors on the battleship, and the adjutant has not changed. Room, this person is going to adjust the room for von der Leyen. Doesn't he need an order from the adjutant?
The staff member's kind reminder immediately made the captain's hair stand on end. The subordinate thought he was whispering a reminder, but in the captain's opinion, it was completely a suicide attempt.
The staff didn't know what the Space Marines were capable of, but he, as the captain, did.
Even though Rubio was wandering around the room and not paying attention to them, the captain knew what the staff said, and Rubio definitely heard it.
Although he didn't know the specific abilities of the Space Marines, he knew that the hearing of the Space Marines was very sharp, far beyond what mortals like them could match.
Sure enough, Rubio, who was originally looking at the room, stopped for less than a second before walking towards the door.
"Just do it as you are told. Where did all this nonsense come from?" the captain reprimanded in a low voice and glared at the staff fiercely.
The staff was shocked. The captain didn't look right. Did something happen that he didn't know about?
Is the adjutant also crazy? Now this Space Marine who brought 20 people is the boss?
The staff turned around and left, and Rubio just walked to the door.
The staff did not dare to compete with Rubio in the aisle and immediately stood by the wall.
Rubio walked to the staff member with a frown and looked down at the young staff member.
The space warrior wearing power armor suddenly stopped in front of him. The staff was so panicked that they didn't dare to raise their heads.
"From now on, this battleship listens to me." Rubio's suppressed emotional voice reached the ears of the staff member who lowered his head, making him feel cold all over.
"Bang!"
Rubio punched him casually and continued to stride away.
The staff member covered his neck, his eyes suddenly widened, and his head tilted to one side unnaturally.
All the crew members following them lowered their heads and did not dare to look.
The captain felt his scalp tingling, but he was not surprised, because this was the normal appearance of the World Eaters Legion that he had seen before.
A World Eater like Liu Haodong who is not irritable seems strange to the captain.
The staff member's neck was flattened by Rubio's punch. According to the captain's judgment, the trachea and bones in the neck had been damaged.
However, the staff member would not be killed immediately by this punch. Instead, he would be unable to breathe due to damage to his trachea and eventually suffocate to death.
The captain re-ordered the other crew members to dispose of the bodies of the staff while transferring von der Leyen.
Then he fearfully followed Rubio to the duel pit.
When Rubio arrived at the dueling pit, it was already filled with Space Marines. Without any unnecessary words, both sides took their combat weapons and walked directly into the duel pit.
Rubio's purpose is simple, to suppress Liu Haodong's status among recruits.
But he is not completely reckless. When the legion assigns him a position, he will definitely tell him information about the position.
So Rubio knew very well the identity of these 1,000 people, they were a group of recruits who had just walked out of the monastery.
This group of new recruits had never even fought a proper war.
It's not like Rubio has never encountered a guy like Liu Haodong who has high prestige among recruits.
In the monastery environment, these recruits can dominate for a while, but it is different after leaving the monastery and entering the legion.
Each legion has veterans who have served for more than a hundred or even hundreds of years, and there are many geniuses among them.
These people who dominate the monastery, after entering the legion, may be defeated by any captain of the tactical team. Only after failure can they recognize the reality.
Although Liu Haodong is probably not as tall as most of the Imperial Guards, fighting is not about height, so what's the use of being tall?
Oglin is also very tall.
So Rubio now wants to give Liu Haodong a hard time to make him realize the reality. This is not a small place like a monastery, where he can run wild at will.
Today, Rubio asked Liu Haodong to take a look at what a real warrior is and what a real fight is.
In normal duels within the legion, both parties do not wear power armor.
Therefore, before Rubio and Liu Haodong start a battle, they must first take off their power armor.
Rubio had people he brought to remove his power armor, and Liu Haodong also had a few recruits to remove his armor.
After taking off their power armor, the two walked into the duel pit.
The battle between the two sides started quickly and ended quickly.
Rubio needs to establish his authority by attacking Liu Haodong, and Liu Haodong also needs to defeat Rubio strongly to strengthen his position in the hearts of others.
Defeating the company commander sent by the legion twice is enough to prove that Liu Haodong is stronger than most of the legion's officers, and the recruits will be more convinced of him.
So when the battle started, Liu Haodong didn't give in at all.
Rubio came in long strides, and when the two sides approached, they both suddenly accelerated towards each other.
The moment the weapons collided, a huge force was transmitted from the weapon to Rubio's hands, almost causing him to lose his weapon.
However, even if the weapon was not released, he readjusted the weapon in an instant and still exposed a flaw.
While Rubio's body was subconsciously adjusting the weapon, his mind was shocked by Liu Haodong's power, and the other weapon in his hand had not yet caught up.
Liu Haodong would not let him go. His fist immediately appeared in front of Rubio's eyes and broke Rubio's nose with one punch.
The powerful force instantly caused Rubio's entire skull to tilt back violently. His head was unbalanced and he "popped" backwards, falling to the ground like a piece of mud.
Neither side said what kind of duel pit they would fight, first blood, second blood, or absolute blood.
Therefore, after Liu Haodong knocked down Rubio with one punch, he did not attack again.
But in the eyes of outsiders, as soon as the two sides meet, the outcome is determined.
Not only Rubio, who fell to the ground, was stunned by this punch, but everyone who saw it was also stunned.
Especially the two teams who came with Rubio were even more stupid.
Although Rubio is not the strongest group in the legion, he is definitely a strong man who has experienced hundreds of battles. How could such a powerful warrior be defeated with one punch like a child?
Not only were they stupid, the recruits were stupid, the captain was stupid, and everyone present was stupid.
