Death is not far from every loyalist of the Empire. Some people regard it as a gift from the Emperor, but in fact it is just a nightmare in this cruel universe. Gathering under the Golden Throne is the only gift the Emperor gives to people, a cruel and gentle gift. .

Captain Jesik was so loyal and smart, but the poison of heresy finally took away his life, and so did the other Imperial Guards. The forced march at the end of their lives drained them of everything, loyalty, life, everything, just like Like this dry world.

Surrounded by countless survivors, this warrior who had once aimed to win a cup with the Skadi legends closed his eyes three days ago. At that moment, the Master Chief saw a ghost-like withered body. Even so, he is one of the loyal people who has persisted the longest.

The Space Marines covered his coffin, the stars sang his praises, the Emperor's protection came as expected, and his soul returned to the Golden Throne, a hero's stranger.

The sergeant chief knelt on one knee and thanked the sacrificed people for his many mistakes with an honor and admiration that no mortal could bear. In his eyes, the people who killed the entire 154th Infantry Regiment of Loander and the 44th Heavy Infantry Regiment were not the same. Not the heretic, but him.

The second lieutenant didn't understand what happened, but when he looked at the relatively new tombstone, he could touch the core of the matter. This was a hero like Skadi's other brothers, but he became a martyr. This is a mortal. Force limitations.

The Second Lieutenant doesn't have much affection for civilians, but he has infinite tolerance for the Imperial Guard because he belongs to this big family and loves this big family...

"Well, if we attack with you, will the situation change?"

"Yes, but strategic deployment is more important. Now that the enemy doesn't know you are coming, the effect can be better. They have not gathered strength. Obviously..." The chief wanted to say something, but the second lieutenant answered, or even rushed to answer. "So what, they are dead. It could be the Skadi people who took back this place, but they are dead."

The second lieutenant looked at the tombstone passively, and the master chief suddenly slapped him in the face. As a superman, his strength had been reduced a lot, but even so, the big man like the second lieutenant was almost knocked to the ground.

The second lieutenant was a little surprised. "where to?"

He thought silently and thought, and soon realized that those worlds would be truly loyal to Skadi and regard Skadi as the de facto capital of the sector. At this moment, no matter how powerful Freeport was, any star system near him would Everyone regards Alan Bair as a hero, so his pressure no longer exists.

"At the same time, only half a million people and two battleships can completely rely on this world for logistics, and its mobility is extremely high. We are not trying to capture the Engili Spaceport this time, but to let them know about the plan to rob Skadi. What happens to things?"

This sentence made Miss Nova raise her head. As an inquisitor, she has experienced from the weakest acolyte to the current position of holding a rosette. Dealing with the gods is almost her job, especially since she has met several demon inquisitors. Later, it deepened its fear of subspace.

Alan Beyer just continued. "The work there is going very well and I think we will be able to leave soon."

"Ha...I see, that's it, the shortcut is to take a detour." He smiled bitterly. A real fight would put the legion in trouble the most, but liberating the many worlds oppressed by Engili would gain people and geographical advantages, and victory would also be achieved. It's just a matter of time.

Alan Beyer simply replied. "This place is close to the Maelstrom. We need more fortresses. We must build the worlds into chains and tightly lock the Lord of the Maelstrom. Like the Eye of Terror, let it be turned into a prison by the empire's countless sacrifices. Imprisoned in chains and become a prisoner of the great emperor."

"Second Lieutenant, you are not in good spirits. Why are your cheeks red? Are you teasing some shrew?" Alan Bayer spoke to him with a military-style teasing, and the Second Lieutenant subconsciously rubbed his cheeks.

"But don't we want to spread our combat power and gain an advantage?" The second lieutenant didn't quite understand.

She slightly wanted to open her mouth, but then thought that the person in front of her had experienced many great things and succeeded. If the emperor's light really shined, then it was probably a gift to him, so she lowered her head again and wrote on the last page of the notepad. This sentence is recorded.

The second lieutenant walked out of this depressing place and walked through the busy port due to the arrival of the Skadi people. He quickly found Alan Bair. With the help of those extremely loyal and persevering pdfs, the journey was not difficult. After searching, Alan Bair, who had just finished publicly appeasing the people in pain, was resting in a room in the refugee camp below the star port. The female inquisitor was beside her, recording her memoirs as usual.

Victory does not mean destroying them. As long as Freeport cannot be destroyed in a few days, the huge maintenance consumption of dozens of battleships will drain Skadi and the countless worlds behind him, because as long as the front line expands by one light year, the transportation consumption will double...

"Those intricate core defense networks help each other, which is why I don't approve of the Grand Army's breakthrough. Those behemoths of the Imperial Navy attack that defense network like a giant sword to chop a sponge, and the final effect is no better than a small knife. Much better, but a waste of energy for no reason.”

After he finished speaking, he picked up the glass and poured the yellow drink into his mouth. Ms. Nova, who was bulging forward and backward, took notes in a very relaxed posture, and finally wrote her own comment as a recorder where the ensign could see it.

Then he performed the Aquila Salute to the tomb of the loyal captain and expressed his feelings, as well as many complex emotions. However, now he no longer regards himself as his savior from above, but has completely become a living being. one of them.

But after a brief thought, she erased it again, because as an inquisitor, she did not need to give the truth, she only needed the citizens of the empire to realize what they needed.

"This is quite a stupid thing. It also means that the recycling team did not realize that many things left during the war were dangerous. Behind this situation is the frightening ignorance or numbness of the numb Loander people. Also, outside Collectors have a higher chance of death.”

Alan Beyer just said. "The Destruction Eagle currently has 40 battle brothers, the strike cruiser Baptismal Fire, we have the Bordero and the 4th and 5th Skadi Infantry Regiment and the 113th Armored Regiment of Fraxia and the 1st Pangia Armored Regiment. A total of two imperial standard cruisers and enough infantry to defeat any world."

Alan Beyer replied. "Attack, the starport in this area is well preserved and can fully serve as a transfer station. As long as the local basic supply factory starts construction, a large number of cargo ships will bring a large population and a full set of supply lines to rebuild this place into a fortress."

"Engili Spaceport, we want to raid the enemy." Alan Bair answered.

Judge Nova said immediately. "This will cause a lot of consumption..."

"But now it seems that those oppressions have shaped the great character of the Imperial Guard here, as well as the strong faith of the residents. Sadly, such a model world has finally been killed by the stupidity of its lords. Now it is full of disease, pollution, and death. "The traitors in Freeport are disgusting with their involvement in the power and territory of the empire. It also represents that another battle for us Skadi people will begin because of death and change."

At present, this young man who may perform many miracles for the empire only gives a vague nod.

"Boss, that is a fierce woman who is too hot for mortals to touch. She also taught me a lot, such as the new stories of this world and the cruelty of heresy."

The hero of the empire spoke in a reminiscence tone while sitting on the dilapidated faux leather sofa, looking at the incense candle that visited the wooden table.

The road to becoming the Lord of the Void turned out to be so close. The second lieutenant bowed to the master chief. "Thank you..." A lot of his feelings were thanks to the Master Chief for not using his power, otherwise his head would have probably flown out.

The arrival of the second lieutenant broke the tranquility. Perhaps for Alan Bayer, being in the same room with Miss Nova, tasting wine, resting, reminiscing, and sorting out his thoughts has become a luxury enjoyment. However, he still did not blame the person he was attracted to. A man who is almost considered a younger brother.

Alan Bair nodded. "Yes, remember, you must always remember that as long as you remember this, those supreme evil spirits will never control you. Killing is not a pleasure, desire cannot sink in, things will eventually change, and tricks are not everything."

"But thanks to my own stupidity, I now understand that the strategy you gave is correct. We are the Imperial Guard, not the Imperial Expeditionary Force. What we do is always protection, not killing."

The Master Chief glared at him and said. "So what? Will the Skadi take back this world be the same as taking it back themselves? Although the Eagle of Destruction is a help, are you going to turn a blind eye to the sacrifices of thousands of men and women in Loander, the main battlefield?"

"Although there is no super-standard monster weapon like the volcano cannon, it is no problem to show a defense comparable to that of a battleship simply by relying on its huge body. This is why the Engili Free Trade Port is confident."

"The extremely high tithe rate and belief in the state religion made the High Gothic word Loander, which was supposed to be a peaceful city, seem particularly ironic."

"You are a warrior, not a god!" He pointed at the face of this mortal and cursed. As a space warrior, he knew his own status and how to view war. The ensign had already regarded them too highly, even if Skadi If people can win easily, then is this world still the world of Loander people?

According to Alan Bayer's character, this place will definitely be turned into a large-scale experimental field, where various social tests will be conducted. Loand is no longer Loand, but now they are taking back the world by themselves, and those sacrifices are all valuable. Yes, the second lieutenant is now tainting those brave and loyal people, and placing himself in a very high position, comparable to the emperor's position!

The ensign held his cheek and thought about it. The stinging pain made it difficult for him to concentrate, and then he asked. "If instead of attacking Freeport, we help heroes everywhere liberate their hometowns..."

Therefore, this golden rule only benefited the second lieutenant. Although he did not know the situation of the gods, nor did he systematically understand any demons. Although he was mortal, as a young man, he still had many almost unlimited possibilities. sex.

"This..." Nova was a little unbelievable. Even the high lords only dared to build a suppression force composed of Space Marines and Imperial Guards in the chaotic and terrifying area of ​​the Maelstrom. Only this also led to the Claws of the Starry Sky. , which is Huron's betrayal, but this man actually wants to lock up the entire maelstrom?

"This is not the Eye of Terror. The subspace storm is more messy and has a larger scope, equivalent to a star region. However, the empire's control area is limited. All nearby worlds will be turned into prison chains. Thousands of fortress worlds will be needed. The empire cannot afford it. !" she asked immediately.

He praised Lord Skadi's many kindnesses and sensitivity, and commented on the current situation of Loander from a personal perspective.

The lieutenant didn't quite understand. "What do you mean? Aren't we supposed to wait for the supply points to be built and help all the imperial worlds before attacking?"

"But what I can't forget the most is still the scene that I and the Skadi escort team saw on the transport ship. A child was killed by an unexploded bomb while recycling resources."

The lieutenant just nodded and answered. "I said something like a bastard."

"Him?" Alanbair was a little surprised, because there was a clear difference between her and him in spoken language in Low Gothic, and then he thought about it. "The sergeant hit you?" He said this almost impossible reality. No matter how angry the Space Marines were, they would never attack the Skadi veterans, because the Skadi were almost the only mortal legion recognized by the Destroying Eagle.

Alanbair answered. "No, we have to attack, but we have to use strong mobility and sufficient firepower to attack. There are many space stations and asteroid bases created for trade around Freeport. Those things are the core of its huge defense network, which is equivalent to the steel gate used by Pan Lan when we cooperated with the Mechanicus before."

"Loande, in my personal investigation, the former planetary governor of this world was not a good person, at least in my judgment, he was an incompetent person, but the Empire did not think so, because although he had no ability to protect, he was very good at suppressing the residents."

The lieutenant nodded. "Then, we..."

Alan Baier also nodded. "Yes, but difficulty does not mean impossibility. If several major star regions are willing to trap Huron, the scourge, together, the Empire can save hundreds of billions of lives and hundreds of thousands of worlds. The disadvantages are in the present, and the benefits will be in the future. What's wrong with doing it?"

After saying this, Nova just lowered her head and wrote silently on her kraft paper.

"I used to think that the personalities of the previous Sun Lords were different. The most typical one was the well-known Mr. Macharius, who frantically demanded that the Imperial Fleet expand into the void outside the Astronomican at the end of his career, and finally died a violent death."

"I thought Lord Alanbair was different, but I suddenly realized that they were exactly the same, ambitious, but the one today learned the lesson of Lord Macharius, that is, it is more effective to learn to pretend to have no fangs and appear gentler than to hold power..."
