Stars for the good Warhammer

——Ashes Alliance.

The moment they heard this name, the high lords present fell into a brief silence.

That was mentioned in the report sent back by the star sector government trapped in the dark side of the empire not long ago. The name of a heretical force that has recently been active in the dark side star field. In order to successfully send the report to Terra , those messengers who were responsible for delivering important official documents paid a heavy price.

At first, the high lords did not pay much attention to this name. After all, the most indispensable thing in the galaxy today is heretics. It was not until a later report mentioned that these heretics may have established an alliance with the Blood Angels. Some kind of connection.

And during the subsequent investigation and evidence collection, Latifah, an inquisitor affiliated with the sector government, encountered an accident while investigating the Blood Angels and the Ashes Alliance.

The Inquisition cruiser he was aboard was destroyed. Inquisitor Latifah herself was attacked by an apprentice named Mia who was suspected to be a spy planted by the Ashes Alliance, and died in that terrible disaster.

As one of the important means used by the Parliament to rule and monitor all living beings in the empire, such news successfully attracted the attention of the high lords, but they were still more concerned about the Blood Angels and the heretics than the life and death of an inquisitor. What is the relationship between them?

For this purpose, not long ago they sent an official from the Ministry of Justice to the dark side of the empire in the name of a special envoy to follow the investigation team composed of the Forbidden Army.

But when they came back, even though they were protected by the Forbidden Army and the Ultramarines, the special envoy still died during the investigation. At the same time, the demigods who accompanied him were unscathed.

What made them even more suspicious was that when the Terran Council informed Robert Guilliman of the incident and asked the other party to conduct a thorough investigation into the murder of the Ash Alliance and the envoy, the original body actually directly refused the order.

Although there is no concrete evidence, for the high lords who are already hostile to the Astartes, the current signs are enough to indicate that those guys must be trying to hide some ulterior motives between the same heretics. secret.

Soon, the Pope, who was sitting next to Mortarion and had a sickly skinny figure, snorted coldly and said in a disgusting tone.

"I knew those guys couldn't believe it. Anyone who has anything to do with heretics should be sent to the gallows."

"In my opinion, if the Blood Angels want to prove their loyalty to the Empire, then they must immediately launch a Redemption Crusade. Don't you think this is a good idea?"

Hearing this, voices of approval suddenly came from the venue. However, while the high lords were still discussing what to do next, Mortarion, who was silently observing the venue, suddenly noticed , the Grand Master of the Assassin Court, Fadix, sitting in the corner, never said a single word in the venue from beginning to end, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.

"Mr. Fadix, don't you plan to say a few words before the end of the action meeting?"

Out of fear of the Assassin's Court, Mortarion's tone seemed full of respect. As his words fell, the other people present also turned their attention to the old man sitting in the corner.

I don't know how much time passed, but I heard an old voice coming from the dark corner through the hood worn by the other party.

"Just like what I said when I first chose to join you, I have no doubt that the reforms formulated by the original body to implement the empire will fail, and this will most likely bring greater disaster to the empire."

Hearing what the other party said, a lewd smile appeared on Mortarion's bloated face. He looked very satisfied and nodded towards the position of the Assassin Grand Master. Then he saw him move the assassin again. His eyes fell on the remaining high lords gathered in the conference room.

"Since you don't have any other comments, I wish our plan success in advance."

With the end of the meeting, everything went as planned by the High Lords, and a large number of Astra Militarum troops controlled by the Terran Council were quickly mobilized in preparation for them to regain control of Terra.

In order to prevent the Imperial Fists stationed in Terra from discovering any clues from this series of actions, the Astartes from the Tauren Chapter even had several bloody battles with the Imperial Fists who came to investigate the abnormal movement of troops. conflict.

With everything ready, the high lords set up stages all over Terra in a high-profile manner, and through all video communication channels, they personally executed the cultists they had cultivated in front of all the people of Terra. .

The purpose of doing this is to prove to the people of Terra that the ridiculous original body cannot even deal with a small cult problem on Terra. Only they, the high lords who are also mortals, can Only then can we truly lead the empire onto the road to glory again.

However, as the speech reached its climax, the High Lords were still denouncing the various crimes the Primarch had committed against the Imperium of Man.

The Vindicare Assassins who were lurking everywhere and had been prepared immediately began their performances. This was the opportunity they were waiting for.

The next moment, as the five high lords who gave speeches fell to the ground almost at the same time, the entire Terra fell into a huge panic. The assassins wanted to use this to attack the throne world. Everyone in the statement.

Even in the absence of the Primarch himself, Terra is still under his control at all times. If anyone wants to commit treachery,

——Then this is his fate.

On the other side, through the big screen in front of him, Fadix, the Grand Master of the Assassin's Court, was holding his hands behind his back, watching the entire action start with an expressionless face.

At this moment, looking at the fallen figures of the high lords in the picture, Jack, who was the deputy to the Prime Minister of the Parliament, curiously asked the great mentor in front of him a question that seemed familiar to him.

"Lord Fardix, what do you think of Lord Guilliman's reforms?"

Hearing this, the old Assassin Grand Master did not hesitate much, but gave a straightforward answer that surprised the other party.

"Guilliman's reforms are bound to fail miserably. The Primarch has no idea what the empire has become during the ten thousand years he has been sleeping."

"But this does not mean that I will give up my loyalty. The Assassin's Court will still be a sharp blade in the hands of the original body. It will be used specifically to eliminate those who try to disobey the empire to ensure that their breath does not continue to pollute the empire. air."

Meanwhile, in a private room in the Fortress of Macraghera.

Robert Guilliman learned about the actions of the Assassins and the final outcome of those foolish people almost immediately, but at this moment, as the Regent of the Empire, he did not care about this matter.

After an unknown amount of time, with the original body's slightly nervous expression, a message that he was really waiting for came from the broadcast of the sound array servitor in the room.
