The Emperor’s Angel of Death

Under the shining lights, Soshyan stood in the center of the most luxurious reception hall of the noble council. He was wearing a ceremonial armor, without a helmet but with an iron halo. Behind him was a short red cloak hanging around his waist. In between is his sword, Shengyan, with three ornate servo skulls hovering above his head, amplifying his voice and spreading it in all directions, while several camera servants project his images on the surrounding walls to ensure that every scene at the scene is safe. Everyone can see it.

The Noble Council is located on the upper floor of Vaughan, the largest hive of the main star of Sagan. The reception hall here will only be opened for the most distinguished guests who come to the planet, such as the archbishop of the star area and the director of the internal department of the star area.

This hall is extraordinarily splendid, with mosaic floors depicting planetary mountains and rivers, high ceilings carved with the image of the Emperor, heroes and angels fighting around him, from the hall's extremely spacious door to the hall's huge window Along the edges, there are huge statues of marble and iron, each depicting an imperial hero or saint.

It was now crowded with smug officers, robe-clad priests, serious enforcers and hooded Mechanicus, and other nobles and their wives.

From the moment he entered the arena, the applause of the crowd washed over Soshyan like a wave, mixed with the war aria falling from the cheers of the Angels above his head, making him feel as if he was on a stage.

Compared with the square, at this time he felt the pressure from the sight of people gathered, although it was nothing to him at all.

There was no one within ten meters of Soshyan, and eight tall Terminators surrounded him, but even for these nobles, seeing an Astarte Chapter Commander at such close range was a blessing. There is talk for decades, so they all try to squeeze forward, including the ladies who flick their fans or cover their lower faces with it, but class is now among them, the closest It is still those big nobles.

This banquet Soshyan came almost alone, because most of the soldiers were not used to such occasions, and it was already wartime, and everyone had their own responsibilities.

thump—

Suddenly, the bell rang, and everyone fell silent.

The ruler of Vaughan's hive, and also the ruler of the Vaughan family, one of the five giants of the noble council, Earl Stern Vaughan stepped forward, cleared his throat, and raised his glass.

"Everyone, let's pay our respects."

His voice scrolls through the column megaphones on the shoulders that serve the skull.

"To the hero of the Empire, the most valiant and fearless warrior, the nemesis of the Red Pirates, the conqueror of the great heresy, Lord Soshyan Alexey, who is here, toll the bell three times and offer his congratulations."

The bell rang again. This was an ancient triple bell-ringing ceremony. The nobles made the gesture of an eagle and recited the words of loyalty required by the ceremonies.

But within seconds, Soshyan raised a hand.

"That's enough, everyone."

Soshyan smiled and said:

"I can't afford such a big gift. I've been flattered by this dinner party. Earl Stern has bothered."

Stern Vaughan took a step forward, bowed deeply respectfully, and took another step.

"Lord Soshyan, it is a great honor for the Vaughan family to receive you."

Soshyan nodded slightly and glanced at the people in front of him. Sten Vaughan, a middle-aged nobleman who seemed to be polite, the actual ruler of Sagan's main star, although it seemed that he only owned Vaughan's hive, he was actually a The master of the underground world of the entire Sagan galaxy is closely related to organizations such as the Thirty Silver Coins Association and the Death Worship. The gray business of illegal drugs, human trafficking and even outside the galaxy is entangled with various interests. Known as King Stern IV of the Vaughan Dynasty.

Then there is Bornhard Morales, the head of Morales, who wears the rank of Colonel of the Guard and is also the ruler of Gomez, the second largest hive of Sagan Prime, and is also serving Terra He works in the Xingyu Hall, and his wife is a lady from the Werner family. The industries involved in the family seem to be relatively legal, mainly the transportation industry and the food trade. The rather handsome young man beside him should be His son - rumored to be the owner of Morales is very intimidated, has no lover and no side room, only one heir, but also seems to be a very useless playboy.

"Colonel Bonnhard, I hope Gomez's Nest can provide at least 30 infantry regiments in the future, and I need your assistance."

Soshyan's words made Bonhard look stiff, then straightened up and saluted.

"Yes, Commander Soshyan! I will reorganize the Hive Guard immediately!"

At this time, Arnie also suddenly gave a non-standard salute, and then said in a tense tone visible to the naked eye:

"So... Commander Soshyan! Me! I will also serve on the expedition. For the Emperor, I will die.. die!"

Soshyan gave a flat smile, then nodded.

"The Emperor is also looking forward to your performance."

Such words made Arnie flattered, and he nodded vigorously.

Soshyan's gaze had now turned to Worster Bull, a stocky general in the uniform of a major general of the Astral Army, with a bushy beard and a dignified appearance that might intimidate a small man. He has always maintained a straight and serious posture in front of people. He is not only the ruler of the hive capital Roberto Zuniga, but also the lord commander of the first army of Sagan. There are currently only three star forces in the Sagan system, but Only the number of the First Corps exceeds 300,000, and the other two add up to less than 200,000. According to the information obtained by Soshyan, the Bull family has a deep background in the Ministry of Military Affairs, and its main responsibility is to guard the Ministry of Military Affairs in Sarawak. Gan Galaxy and surrounding supply stations and liaison stations, and regularly provide 500,000-1,000,000 school-age youths.

"Major General Worster, the Sagan First Army will be an important force in the crusade against heretics in the future, and I also look forward to your performance."

Wooster stomped his foot hard, gave a very standard military salute, raised his chin slightly and said loudly:

"Everyone in the First Legion is ready to sacrifice their lives for the Emperor!"
