Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

After passing through the training hall and the weapons and equipment warehouse, the two of them walked all the way to the main body of the training hall, which is also the widest chapel.

Alan Janus and a Gray Knight had been waiting at the door for a long time. They smiled and greeted them after seeing their figures.

Nicholas was not surprised by this situation. After he returned to Calvin, this strange situation happened every day at work.

The body of the Angel of Punishment is not too small, but there are not many passages that can accommodate the Astartes level.

The day after Nicholas boarded the ship, he found that the Gray Knight he encountered was different from before.

As long as he encounters a group of Gray Knights in a certain corridor, no other Gray Knights will come towards them in the next course of action.

This kind of situation is not only reflected in the daily walking inside the ship. After Alan Janus and him clearly assigned the scope of work and took away the defense of the fleet, the frequency of this kind of thing became more frequent.

Nicholas could sense the presence of other Gray Knights, and they did not hide deliberately.

But in the context of this perception, it was the Gray Knights who seemed to have been notified earlier, far out of his sight, and bypassed the passage that was too narrow for each other.

So did his colleagues, and King and Alexander talked to him about it more than once.

If they didn't clearly know the number of Gray Knights serving on this battleship, it would be difficult for them to see the number of Gray Knights they could see matching the intelligence.

These brothers are not always communicating with each other 24/7, right?

Nicholas sometimes doubts this, but such a large-scale, continuous use of power seems unrealistic just thinking about it.

It was impossible to ask, after all every legion had their own secrets;

They had no right to interrogate a Primarch without the Emperor's express orders.

"Ahem! Is something wrong? Tell me."

Calvin coughed in a mocking manner, indicating that Alan Janus could explain the matters at hand clearly in front of Nicholas.

"Yes..." Allen lowered his head in response, and glanced at Nicholas covertly.

With the psychic link open almost around the clock, communication within the legion with Calvin did not require the presence of Allen himself as before.

Among the communication permissions within the legion, the first-level channel that directly connects officers and Calvin is enough for them to communicate on most daily matters.

But in order to maintain a normal state in front of "outsiders", Allen rushed to the door of the training ground from the other side of the battleship after finishing the matter with Calvin.

Yes, Calvin was just discussing the next itinerary with the officers in the legion while having a "teaching" confrontation with Nicholas.

This kind of multi-threaded working at the same time is the norm in his now developed and mature brain;

Now his brain is not only a tool for his own thinking, but also serves as a valve in Legion mode that leads to the information collection of the Legion's will deep in his soul.

This powerful information processor, when the Gray Knights Legion is not at war, is in a secondary response state that is at odds with his soul;

In daily work and internal training, he also needs to use his brain to sort out the information communicated within the legion.

But in a state of war, it is his duty to be united with the essence of his soul;

While responsible for the torrent of information for the entire legion, he also has to shoulder the task of integrating the huge wave of psychic energy from different souls when all psychic energies are linked together to fight.

"The fleet navigator informed us three hours ago that our journey is only one day away from the Ice Veil."

Allen whispered, pulling away the data pad in his hand and handing it to Calvin's hand.

Nicholas on the side collected his thoughts and turned his attention to the star map on the data board.

"Then?"

Calvin looked at the red dot mark on the data board. A dark green triple skull was marked on the edge of the icy veil.

"After summarizing the information from the Tribunal, we were informed that there is a high possibility of Chaos contamination on the waterway ahead."

"Specific location and scale." Calvin's tone became serious, and Nicholas also raised his ears and listened carefully to what was being said to him.

"The Velax galaxy is extremely far away from the Ice Veil. The two galaxies are in the same star sector and are exactly at the opposite corners of the galactic equator. Diseases have begun to occur from different planets in the star sector, and the episcopal world in the capital has been infected three times. There has been no signal feedback for this period, and the Inquisition speculates that it must have fallen."

“Where are the Imperial troops nearby?

"Nicholas looked at Allen. The conventional defense mechanism should have been activated at this time, but the Velax galaxy on the star map did not have any imperial army logo.

"There is currently no organized Astra Militarum nearby. The sector fleet has just been transferred away by the star domain government. It should now be fighting in the direction of Dresca."

"Where is the Chapter Astartes?" Calvin looked at the star map carefully, but could not find a sign indicating the location of the Chapter.

"There is currently no battle group stationed here. There is only a Death Watch fortress nearby, which is still used as a training base."

Well, Nicholas looked at the two people in front of him without words. This assistance to Velasquez seemed inevitable.

Against the backdrop of the complete void of nearby imperial power, he had no reason to prevent Calvin's involvement.

"We must intervene there! If Nurgle's epidemic cannot be contained at an early stage, all that will be left there will be a mess."

Calvin set the tone for the event, and the Captain of the Custodes could not object to it.

"The speech originally scheduled to be held on the Cold Veil..."

Nicholas still wanted to make a final struggle, but in the face of Calvin's serious expression, he finally chose silence.

The Angel of Punishment began to slowly enter a state of war.

The members of the Inquisition in the cabin were awakened by the Gray Knights from their dormant state while traveling in the subspace.

The complex awakening and purity test rituals have been temporarily simplified:

The first thing they saw when they opened their eyes from the soft bed.

Those giant men in silver armor from the Holy Hammer Order were coming to the door holding a sharp halberd in one hand and a book with fine gold horns on the cover in the other hand.

These giants ignored their questions and simply recited the cipher text in the ancient books in ancient runes in a low voice.

The purity test that was supposed to last for several hours was forcibly shortened to a few minutes with the blessing of the Demonic Code.

After confirming the purity of the people in front of them, they opened their mouths and showed white teeth and smiled at the confused Tribunal personnel:

"Get up, in the name of the Emperor and the Titans, we have work to do!"

At the same time, the fleet has been sailing quietly in the fleet sequence since its departure. On the "Interstellar Labyrinth" with no sense of presence, Moloch, the leader of the Minotaur Chapter, also slowly opened his eyes. eyes.
