Warhammer: In the Name of Nirvana

Chapter 593 You can always trust Leman Russ

"What did you install on this guy's head, Lord Morgan?"

"It looks like a... nail?"

[Not like: it is a nail. 】

When Morgan smiled, she would look at the alertness on the face of the imperial guard with satisfaction.

Facts have once again proved that when the subsequent development and final result of an event are conducive to his grand plan, the Lord of Mankind will be terribly active: this is the case with the issue of Fu.

Two weeks after Morgan and her three brothers captured this crazy genius, the fleet of the Primarchs still stayed in the core area of the Inesim space, planning to completely incorporate this rich land into the Empire, while waiting for the 19th Legion to join them and the imperial guards team to carry out the extradition work.

Interestingly, the extradition team sent by the Emperor had arrived before the 19th Legion, which set out first, arrived: judging from the golden light left on their warships, it is likely that the Lord of Mankind specially opened a direct channel for this team in the subspace.

Morgan was not surprised at all.

The Primarch stood alone on the landing pad of the Aurora, accompanied only by Fu beside him and several round table guards fifty steps behind him: her three brothers did not want to get involved in this matter and ran away long ago.

Jonson and his Dark Angels Legion left the day after the war ended. They did not go too far, but took the Inesim Galaxy as the center, happily sweeping away all unstable factors, as a daily rest before the next expedition.

Hundreds of pirate dens, fallen worlds and alien groups suffered a catastrophe, and the Lion King and his legion did not hesitate at all. The whirlwind torpedoes and plasma engines never overheated. The battle line was deployed in star sectors, and the wailing souls would not disperse until ten thousand years later.

Morgan took advantage of this effectively. Because this area will be included in the Far Eastern Frontier's sphere of influence in the future, she generously handed over several Dawnbreaker companies and auxiliary army corps to her blood relatives, but appointed the flexible Lana as the temporary commander of this Dawnbreaker force: the old warrior's caution and his good popularity in the First Legion can effectively guarantee the survival rate of Morgan's heirs.

On the other hand, the Primarch threw the idle Conrad and Corax to various civilized worlds in Inisim to help her check whether there are potential corruption factors in these worlds: the two Primarchs liked this task very much. They sorted out a long list and a detailed meeting order for Morgan in a very short time.

Morgan cleverly combined the work results of the three brothers into one: facing all the families with ill intentions, she only needed to project the battlefields of several nearby star regions and show them the high efficiency of the Dark Angels Legion in daily work such as [Racial Elimination], and she could immediately get a large number of loyal followers.

After all, they were all a group of elites who could survive the Age of Strife. When they saw that the mortal enemies that had troubled them for thousands of years were wiped out by the First Legion like a wild cat digging out a bird's nest, anyone could realize what a heavy iron hand was under the gentle face of the Empire.

So, the loyalty of the lords and world governors was offered one by one, and it took exactly two weeks. Morgan no longer cared about Jonson's vacation, and let Conrad, who had completed the task, drag Corax to find their fun: because this small team of imperial guards became a new trouble for the Primarch.

Fortunately, this time it was finally not a golden machine with high eyes.

"Greetings to you, Primarch Morgan."

Twelve imperial guards walked down from several shuttles carved with double-headed eagles in an orderly manner, and Morgan soon discovered in surprise that their leader was actually a tribune of the imperial guards: what a small role this was. Among the imperial guards, the status of the ten tribunes was second only to Chief Waldo.

"My name is Helios, and I come to extradite the fugitive from Holy Terra - Fu."

"The Emperor thanks you for your contribution, and the same goes for your brothers: please convey it."

The leader this time was obviously carefully selected by the Emperor. Compared with the Diocletian and Aquitaine that Morgan had met before, this tribune named Helios seemed rigorous, restrained and polite. His words successfully made the Spider Queen wave her hand back, and the round table guards who were fifty steps away, who were ready to fight, silently put away their weapons.

[I will. ]

[Nice to meet you, tribune. ]

The Primarch smiled, and her curious eyes stayed on the tribune of the imperial guards and his comrades behind him. Facing these highest-level combat forces of the empire, Morgan has always maintained a strong curiosity, but she has never had time to observe them carefully before.

After observing for a few seconds, the Primarch involuntarily turned his attention to the round table guards behind him. Comparing the difference between the imperial guards and his most outstanding offspring, he repeatedly deduced the possible conflicts and various results in his mind.

Finally, she came to a conclusion.

Even without using the [God's Weapons] made by the remnants of the Star God, her eleven round table guards were still confident enough to eat up the twelve imperial guards in front of them. There would be casualties, but they would not be unacceptable, perhaps two or three.

The biggest unstable factor is the Tribune of the Forbidden Army. He has the ability to drag one or two Round Table guards to death: considering that he is second only to Waldo, this exchange ratio is actually acceptable. , Anyway, if Morgan really pursues people with the strength of the Round Table Guards, he can always pull out a few dozen more from the Second Legion.

"Any questions?"

When the second sentence of the Forbidden Army came, the original body realized that she was distracted. She showed an apologetic smile to the tribune, and then without saying anything, she directly pushed Ful next to her to Hurley in front of her. Russia.

The tribune took him over, and soon two colleagues took the place of the jailer. They carefully checked Fu's body to make sure that no problems were found: for the sake of insurance, Morgan used all the reasonable methods known to him. Fu was tied up by various means. This old guy who had lived for five thousand years could not move anywhere except his eyeballs.

only……

"What's this?"

The tribune's finger pointed at a nail-like object above Fo's head.

There seemed to be a golden flame on it.

[This is a reinsurance device that I modified from the Butcher's Nail. 】

The Spider Queen smiled, and her smile made the Imperial Guards be wary.

[To put it simply, this device is semi-permanent: I have attached the spiritual power of myself and the Emperor to it. This ensures that unless one of me or the Emperor uses spiritual power, there is no way to turn this device on. The nails were taken out of the back of his head. 】

[As you know, this is to prevent him from escaping halfway. 】

"That's not going to happen."

The tribune raised his voice.

"We'll keep an eye on him!"

【Are you prepared? 】

The primarch was lifeless.

[Give him to the Emperor, my father will understand what I mean. 】

Morgan waved his hand, seemingly not interested in continuing to explain, but in fact he was covering his eyes: Of course she was not so kind as to use her own psychic power and skills to divulge the Forbidden Army. Has a second purpose.

That is, through it, Morgan has extracted all five thousand years of knowledge in these two weeks: although she cannot completely digest it now, she will not be short of time in the future anyway, and sooner or later this knowledge will become The best reward of Morgan's trip.

Originally, the original body was a little worried that she would not be able to understand the idea of this biological genius who surpassed the Emperor in a sense, but after she went through it in general, the Spider Queen still had to sigh.

No matter how unreasonable and outstanding Fu's ideas are, Fu's science and technology are still extremely simple and easy to understand in front of the true originators of flesh and blood technology, masters of biological technology in the non-subspace field: the dark elves of Comorro.

Even very...humane.

In other words: If Comoros was a comprehensive university, Nafu's technology and cruelty would be at the level of junior high schools; Comoros's daily entertainment activities would be at the high school level, and it would be a key high school.

Thinking of this, the Spider Queen cast a complicated glance at Fo, and the scientist returned a resentful look: Obviously, the previous defeat caused Fo to have great hatred for the various original bodies, especially the leader Morgan. , the fire of revenge burned in his heart.

Maybe one day, he will come back with revenge?

Morgan didn't care about this issue. For her, Fu's matter was over, and she should think of something else...

"Wait, Mr. Morgan."

Just as he turned around, the voice of the tribune came from behind Morgan.

I saw Helios making a gesture in the direction of the shuttle, and two more Imperial Guards lifted a box from it. Morgan had never seen such a gorgeous box, with traces of a black double-headed eagle carved on it. She couldn't help but think of the black-armored guards in the Forbidden Army: in fact, the two Forbidden Soldiers carrying the box were wearing black armor.

This made the Primarch frown.

Her first reaction was: Did that old man want to arrange a life for her again?

Don’t you even dare to come and talk to me this time?

The Imperial Guards serve as a sounding board? What a great multifunctional experiment.

【What's this? 】

Although the anger in his heart had risen, Morgan still maintained the superficial etiquette, and the Advocate Tribune in front of him didn't talk nonsense. He first organized his language, and then began to describe the story about the box to the original body: You can see it , which was a challenge for him because he had never had any relevant experience before.

"This box contains...a reward specially given to you by the Emperor."

【……Year-end awards? 】

The Imperial Guard did not answer, listening to Morgan's continued thoughts.

Soon, the Primarch sneered.

[Tell me, what kind of dirty work does he want me to do so that the reward can be given out in advance? 】

The Imperial Guard was silent.

"No...this is just a reward."

【……ha? What did you say? 】

"The emperor means that this is a special reward to appease you for your hard work."

【No mission? 】

"He didn't say."

[Just a reward? 】

"Yes."

[For my previous hard work? 】

"indeed so."

The primarch took a deep breath.

[Tell me...]

[Did you knock his brain out while traveling in subspace? 】

What answered Morgan's words was the sound of the fourteen Forbidden Army's guns being loaded.

——Brief confusion——

[So, this is a simple reward given to me by the emperor? 】

Morgan touched his head and felt for the first time that his brain capacity was a little insufficient: although her genius genetic father often gave Morgan some operations that she couldn't understand, this operation made her particularly confused.

The Emperor would actually remember her hard work?

【……】

Did this old boy secretly arrange some kind of death job for her, but he didn't dare to say it clearly for a while?

Morgan thought the odds were high: so she looked again at the tribune.

[Tell me: Did he suddenly think of giving me this gift? 】

"no."

The Imperial Guard shook his head.

"In fact, this is because Lord Leman Russ made a remonstrance to the Emperor."

【ha? Leman Russ? 】

What does this have to do with him?

"Yes, His Excellency Leman Russ boarded the Emperor's Dream not long ago and explained the issues about Magnus and psychic powers to the Emperor. I was present at the time, and I heard him with my own ears after the report. After having questions about Magnus, I specifically mentioned it to the Emperor."

【What did he say? 】

"Lord Leman Russ explained to the Emperor every activity and secret operation you have participated in since your participation in the Great Crusade, as well as the blood you paid and the dissatisfaction you accumulated in it: He also specifically mentioned your... blood vessels and blood pressure. ”

【……】

"In short, this is it: His Excellency Leman Russ protested to the Emperor. He believed that the Emperor ignored your efforts in mediating the conflicts between the various original bodies and did not give you sufficient compensation and rewards, resulting in You have always had unhealthy psychological problems, which he has seen and experienced personally, so he hopes that the emperor can make up for the mistakes in time and give you more rewards."

[Is this... what he said? 】

Morgan fell silent, the first time she fell into such a sincere silence.

"Yes, this is what he said."

"The Emperor took his advice."

The Imperial Guard nodded, and he pointed at the box to add the last sentence.

"After the departure of the primarch Leman Russ, the Emperor personally ordered Malcador remotely to go to the underground area of the Palace of Terra and select several items that can help you: There is no doubt about their power and effect, but you Care must be taken to use them safely, otherwise they will cause damage to your army."

Morgan looked at the golden box that was half as tall as herself and nodded. Her eloquent mouth could not utter a single word at this time. The name of Leman Russ was running rampant in her mind, interfering with the Spider Queen's thoughts. Her thoughts dragged her into memories of the recent past.

Even the departure of the Imperial Army team did not allow Morgan to react.

She just squatted down slowly in the silence of the round table guards behind her and stroked the double-headed eagle on the box.

【Leman Russ...】

Morgan whispered, and she remembered the protest content in Leman Russ's mouth. Wasn't that the cathartic words she uttered to Leman Russ not long ago because of the accumulation and eruption of long-term resentment on the Shrike Planet: Just Even Morgan didn't think these words were profound. The reason why she chose to vent to Leman Russ was just because the Wolf King knew her true identity.

However, I didn't expect...

Morgan touched the box.

After a moment, she laughed.

【It’s really yours...Ruth...】

She just smiled like this, silent, thinking for a long time and confusedly.

Until new footsteps came.

That's Conrad.

——————

"Corax's legions are coming."

Midnight Ghost got right to the point, and his sister responded.

【knew. 】

Morgan nodded.

[I'm going to clean up right away. Do you want to inform Zhuang Sen to go with me...]

"No."

Conrad snorted.

"I was driven out by him: Corax decided to face his legions alone."

【? 】

Morgan glanced back.

[Are you kidding me? 】

"of course not."

Conrad pointed to the marks on his armor left by the dispute.

"He is very determined: I think this is because his first meeting with the 19th Legion will not be very pleasant. After all, he once described to me his plan to dispatch the fleet, although after several discussions, that plan It’s a lot milder than the original plan, but it will still cause waves within the legion.”

[Then the problem is even bigger. 】

Morgan frowned.

[Let him push it alone? 】

"Of course not: in fact, the Redemption Star has sent a fleet."

【I do not know how? 】

"I don't know either."

Midnight Ghost spread his hands.

"It seems that Corax does have an idea of his own."

【...That's all. 】

After a moment of silence, Morgan sighed.

[Notify your legion to be ready for action at any time: my legion is the same. 】

"no problem."
