信仰能否力挽狂澜？——神之瘟疫的原体交锋简读（2）(7)

交战伊始，莫塔里安便利用了武器范围的优势打出先手攻击。基里曼使用帝皇之剑挡住了攻击。每次武器相交时空气传导出一轮又一轮的音爆。寂静的恶魔之魂在闪动的不灭明焰前因畏缩而含糊不清。
Mortarion cocked his head. Guilliman nodded in acknowledgement. Mortarion stepped back, and round, disengaging his weapon’s head from Guilliman’s block and turning in a circle, using his height advantage to stay clear of the burning blade. Silence whistled round through the air, built up to blurring speed. Guilliman stepped away, hewed one-handed at the weapon, jarring it hard. Flames roared up from the Emperor’s Sword again. Mortarion jabbed with Silence’s wicked back hook, and this too was diverted with a ringing of unearthly steels. Mortarion turned his weapon slightly, and yanked back hard, seeking to trip his brother. Guilliman jumped over the head, the buzzing chain tip passing an inch beneath his feet. He struck out, catching the cage of bones around Silence’s top, breaking them.

莫塔里安抬起头，基里曼作出了同样的回应，然后认可的点了点头。随后死亡之主退后，转身挥动寂灭直转一周将武器的头柄避开帝皇之剑的封锁，再顺势横扫向原体，利用他的长度优势离开燃烧长剑的攻击范围。寂静再度划破空气，直冲原体而来。基里曼倒退一步。单手抵住剑身格住长柄镰刀。烈焰再次燃起。莫塔里安用武器后部长钩尖刺向前捅去，但这也被一种发出神秘的铃声的钢铁所偏转。莫塔里安轻转镰刀，随后猛地向后拉扯，试图绊倒他的兄弟。基里曼一跃而起，嗡嗡作响的链锯尖刺掠过他脚下一英寸的位置。接着再次猛劈，击碎了环绕寂静链锯运转头部的骨头。
