Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

The pale white light shone on the ground of the docking deck, and the halo seemed to be an eternal fog shrouding it. But in the light fog beside the steel door frame, accompanied by the sound of orderly footsteps, a pair of heavy iron feet stepped out from the light.

That golden heavy armored footstep, a majestic giant eagle with spread wings was carved on the front side of his leg armor. The eagle spread its wings, shining under the light, and above the spread wings, a person wearing a tall power armor stepped onto the docking deck of the "Emperor's Wrath".

He stood at the edge of the white light background, scanning all the people standing in front of the deck, and they were looking at him. Almost everyone's attention was focused on him, as if he was the only one who landed on this huge deck.

"Everyone is paying attention. It looks like our grand entrance is quite effective, Reina." He smiled and turned to the captain who was walking out from behind him. Reina walked out of the light in the blue uniform of a navy captain. Her dark black combat boots stepped onto the steel deck and stopped after a ticking sound.

"It looks like that, but can we just walk over next time? The flash behind hurts my eyes." "This is called momentum, do you understand? Momentum."

Spyer looked at the magnificent giant standing in front of the gate. He looked at him in surprise and hesitated about what to say, but in the end he did not speak first, because he did not even know how to address him. The admiral turned his head to look at the captain of the Tiberus regiment beside him.

"Is that the Emperor?" "No, that's not the Void Father, but the owner of that warship."

Captain Tiberus said without hesitation. He looked at the shining golden halo, listened to the man's words and stared at his face, giving Spyr an accurate answer. Although Tiberus had never seen the Emperor himself and had never been to Terra, he knew that it was not the Emperor. He knew who that man was.

Spyr also knew that he had a premonition from the beginning. A legendary warship that had disappeared from ancient times suddenly appeared, jumped out of the void and destroyed all the traitors of the ten thousand years. When the warship docked, a group of mortal warriors that had never been seen before walked out of it.

They wore armor that Spyr had only heard of in stories, held weapons that the current Mechanicus priests could not even imagine, and held the Lightning Eagle flag that must exist in military academies, books, and imperial warships and barracks. Who that flag belonged to was known to all imperial soldiers.

And now, a tall giant wearing the same armor as the Emperor walked out of the light, a golden giant surrounded by warriors from the mythical era. When he saw the burning halo behind his head and witnessed the self-evident sacred halo, Spyer had already guessed it.

But now, the commander of the Tiberus regiment gave him a positive answer. Spyer took a step forward and looked up at the giant who turned his head and back to him, "Sir Supreme Marshal, I am the commander-in-chief of the Gothic Fleet, Admiral."

"Admiral Spyer, it's nice to see you again, Admiral." The man smiled and turned his head away. Spyer looked at him with a surprised expression.

"Do you know me? Sir, you Vito?" The doubts on Spyer's face quickly turned into surprise. When he saw the familiar face, he turned his head and smiled and looked down at Spyer.

"Hello, Spyle, how long ago was the last time we met? If I remember correctly, it was the Battle of Cape Actium three hundred years ago?" "The Battle of Frontier Star, but Vito? I mean, that Vito?" Spyle asked in an extremely shocked and incredible tone, his face was full of confusion and puzzlement, but Vito in front of him looked at him with one hand on his waist with a happy face, "Yes, that Vito, the two Vitos are the same person, what? Didn't you guess?" "To be honest, it's been three hundred years since you saw the man named Constantine and Vito. He didn't have a life extension surgery, nor did he transform himself into an electronic Cthulhu, and he was as handsome as me, not to mention that we have known each other for more than three hundred years." Vito smiled at the admiral, and his words seemed to wake up Spyle all of a sudden. They had known each other for nearly eight hundred years. Although he had undergone countless life extension surgeries, the Empire used the most advanced, even many of which were forbidden technologies from the Dark Ages, to prolong his increasingly exhausted life so that he could continue to serve the Empire and the Emperor. But even so, Spyder already looked extremely old. His once black hair had completely turned white. Although his face was still strong and resolute, it was already full of wrinkles. But Vito, he hadn't changed at all every time he saw him. Spyder had suspected it a long time ago, but now, when Vito told him the answer himself, everything seemed to make sense.

"You are. Immortal?" Spyder squeezed out the word from his mouth. Vito in front of him laughed and put his hand on the waist of the armor. "You are worthy of it. I have forgotten how long I haven't heard this word. After all, if nothing unexpected happens, I am also the last immortal in the universe."

Vito said with a bitter smile. He raised his head slightly and glanced at the burly war captain standing next to Spyder. He looked at himself calmly, standing there motionlessly, without even taking off his helmet.

This made Colonel Peter, who walked out of the pier corridor behind Vito, very dissatisfied. He held the Sun Army's tactical helmet under his armpit and a blaster in the other hand. He walked out from behind the gate and stood in front of the Sun Army who had followed him out and were lined up with flags in their hands.

Peter watched Tiberius frown and walk up. He walked past Vito and stared at the burly Chapter Leader. Spier felt that the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers. Anyone who knew the man-eating shark would not So he looked at them, but obviously, this ancient warrior didn't know who he was, so he was fearless.

"Facing the Supreme Marshal, you should take off your helmet and kneel down to salute him." Peter said sternly. He stared at the chapter leader who was as tall as an iron mountain in front of him, who looked at him without saying a word. Stepping up, Spier even had to step back several steps on the road to make way for the burly Chapter Leader.

Tiberos walked up to Peter. The tall scarlet giant lowered his head and looked down at the mortals in front of him. The power of his hands clicked, "I only kneel to the Father of the Void, mortal."

"Father Void? What the hell is that name?" Peter looked directly into the eyes of Tiberos's helmet and asked directly in a very direct and even brave way, although that behavior could also be called stupid. .

The chapter leader in front of him immediately clenched his iron fist, and the heavy glove tightened instantly and made a roar. The man-eating shark warriors who put on their helmets again behind him clenched their weapons one after another. Some of them He stepped forward, and the Sun Army soldiers behind Peter also stepped forward with weapons in hand.

The two groups of people approached each other without showing any signs of weakness. The space warriors wearing MK3 power armor and the mortal warriors wearing the same armor from the Sun Army during the Great Crusade approached each other with weapons in hand. This scene gave Vito a feeling. The feeling of youth coming back.

He smiled and walked between the two groups of people, raising his hand to signal them all to stop. The Sun Army did stop after seeing Vito's gesture, but the Man-Eating Sharks did not. They continued to stride forward with their weapons in hand. Come, like a group of sharks smelling blood.

"Father Void is the Emperor, Peter, and hello Tiberos, long time no see." Vito smiled and looked up at the chapter leader on the side, who also raised his head slightly to look at him. He looked at him with a smile and pointed at the man-eating shark warriors behind him with the power claw in his hand.

"The last time we met, it was in Badab, right? Nice to see you. Can you ask your soldiers to step back and listen? It's very crowded here."

Tiberos looked at the smiling Vito. The tall chapter leader was silent for a moment, then turned and nodded to the leading shark officer behind him. The latter immediately stopped, nodded in response and raised the chain in his hand. Sawaxe swung back and led his warriors back.

The man-eating sharks stared at Vito and Peter, and then retreated silently as before. They returned to their original positions, but the movement of the shark swarm had made the Imperial Navy officers on the side unable to notice at all. Everyone dared to stand next to them, but everyone stayed away, for fear that the blood would splash on themselves, or even worse, they would be involved and hacked to death.

After all, the Man-Eating Sharks are known as a madman group that doesn't care about the casualties of friendly forces. They only have targets in their eyes, and they will not stop until the targets are completely unable to move.

"Very good, thank you. Now that you have "chatted", let me introduce you. This is Peter, the colonel commander of the Sun Auxiliary Army. Say hello."

"Mortal." "Iron can."

The two people's "down-to-earth" greetings did make Vito smile bitterly, but he continued. Vito walked up to the two of them and met the man who raised a power claw and the other hand. Iron Fist introduced each other to them, "This is Chapter Master Tiberos of the Shark Chapter, Space Marine, Loyalist."

"You can see it, it's obvious." Peter stood in front of Tiberos with his arms folded, looking at this chapter leader who showed no disrespect, "You should kneel down to the Marshal. He is the Supreme Marshal appointed by the Emperor himself, and has the command The power of all Astartes, even your Primarch."

"I don't know what kind of appointment this is, mortal, so I won't kneel down. I say it again, I will only kneel down to Father Void." "Call him Emperor, you idiot who can't take a name, your name Sounds like a Chaos Demon."

As soon as Peter said this, he seemed to instantly anger the Chapter Leader. He strode up, clenched his iron fist and stood tall in front of Peter. His flashing red eyes seemed to be about to smash the person in front of him to pieces. It was like flesh, but Peter stood there without any fear, looking directly into the eyes of the Chapter Master.

"Okay, you two, you are both excellent warriors, don't lose your temper like two children." Vito stood aside and raised his power claw and said, but Tiberius in front of him just looked at him coldly. One glance, and then continued to look down at Peter in front of him.

"I don't know if he is a good warrior, Vito." "You should call him, Marshal." Peter took a step forward without showing any signs of weakness, and said loudly as he faced him. Tiberius immediately lowered his head, He looked at Peter in front of him with those extremely threatening eyes.

He raised the lightning claw in his hand and collided with Peter's chest with the sharp claw that could instantly break flesh and blood. The collision created a spark on the Sun Army armor. The two looked at each other with hostility, " I won't let a weak mortal tell me what to do. You may be a commander, but to me, you are nothing."

"Then I will be happy to prove to you whether I am a weak mortal, Iron Can." Peter said, raising his gun and hitting the Lightning Claw from the side, the muzzle of the gun pointed at the head on it, and the two stared at each other. The other person's eyes almost collided and sparked when they looked at each other, you know, the sparks falling into the gasoline barrel.

Vito stepped forward and separated the two of them. He was wearing the emperor's power armor, so he was tall enough to push Tiberius away. "That's enough for you two. If you want to prove yourself, then prove it on the battlefield." , instead of fighting with your own people here."

"We'll see, what's the title? Captain of the Shark Chapter, another bad name." Peter raised the gun in his hand slightly, and lightly hit it against Tiberius' claws On top, the latter groaned and opened the blaster all of a sudden. The lightning on it followed the claw blade and created a spark on the gun.

"We'll see, Colonel." Taboros said and turned to leave. He walked past Speyer with heavy steps. The admiral turned around and looked at the sound of the shaking footsteps. Taboros Ross walked through the man-eating sharks that were getting out of the way, and then all the man-eating shark warriors followed and left with the chapter leader without saying a word.

"Not even a goodbye?" Vito stood there and said with a smile, but Spier in front of him turned around. He turned to look at the tall Vito behind him, "Maybe it's a good thing that the chapter leader left, at least here. The probability of it turning into a scarlet road is low.”

"Indeed, once again, it's a pleasure to meet you, my friend." Vito smiled and strode forward. He walked up to Speyer and stretched out a hand to shake his hand, although he didn't seem to notice. He is now wearing the emperor's power armor, so that hand is not very suitable for shaking hands with mortals.

Spier looked at the big hand and smiled bitterly. He stretched out his hand and shook one of his fingers, "Where did you get this big thing?"

"Terra, you haven't received any news from Terra? I said, back like lightning? And Guilliman." "What? Lord Guilliman is back too?"

Spier's reaction was that he obviously didn't know, but Vito wasn't surprised either. He smiled and took back his big hand, "It seems like he doesn't know anymore."

"The Gothic Fleet, the Shark Chapter, and the rest of the Imperial forces are near Cadia, blocking and confronting the subsequent Chaos invasion fleet that rushes out of the Eye of Terror. This star field has been shrouded in subspace storms. , causing our contact with Terra to be completely cut off, and we can't even contact the sector command. "

Vito looked at Spier and nodded with his head in tall power armor, "It's the same information as Reina currently has. Oh, by the way, let me introduce to you, Reina, the captain of the Emperor's Dream, I think you know her, even though it’s from books, but she’s right in front of you.”

Vito turned slightly sideways and raised his big hand to signal to Reina who was standing aside. The latter walked up to Speyer and saluted him. The latter immediately stood at attention and saluted her as well. Speyer responded with He looked at the legendary captain in front of him with great respect.

"It's an honor to meet you, Captain Reina. It's my honor. Thank you for your timely rescue." Spier saluted and stretched out a hand. Reina naturally came up to shake hands with Spier. together.

"This is what we should do, for the sake of the Imperial Navy." Although Rena is a little older, her smile is still beautiful. The infectious smile makes Spier's resolute expression melt into a smile. Holding Reina's hand tightly.

"For the Imperial Navy."

"Okay, okay, please save your polite words. We are not the bureaucrats of the high lord. Let's talk about business. Spier, tell me what year and month is it now?" Vito, who was standing aside, waved his palms. Said, Spier in front of him also let go of Reina's hand, he turned his head and looked at Vito aside.

"If the thinker's time calculation is correct, it should be M42.005 now." Speyer said to Vito who was standing aside. The latter showed a look of astonishment after hearing this. Vito glanced to the side, and then He took a few steps on the deck.

Have you been away for more than two years? He clearly felt that it had only been less than a week since he was in the webway. Two damn years. God knows how many things had happened in the past two years. He didn't know what Guilliman's situation was like on Terra. There were also Cole, Loken and Bell. Love. Sunstein and the others, and... damn, Celestine.

Vito let out a long sigh, raised his head and glanced at the wall mural on the side of the deck. On it was a vivid depiction of an archangel flying above the golden throne. She was holding a flaming holy sword, raising her head to hold the The sword pointed straight at the sky. Vito looked at her and let out a long sigh, "I'm sorry, girl, but now that I'm back, I will go back as soon as possible after dealing with the mess here."

After speaking, Vito turned around and looked at Speyer behind him, "The situation here looks chaotic enough. If we hadn't come, would you still be able to hold on? Are there any reinforcements?"

Spier knew that Vito was not being sarcastic. He was indeed asking if there were any reinforcements. This was the right question, especially in the current Cadia sector. Spier put his hands on his back and nodded slightly. .

"The Gothic Fleet has basically arrived in the Obscure Star Territory, as well as the Shark Chapter you just saw, as well as two or three other Space Marine Chapters, as well as some of the Kadia who still stick to the Star Territory after the fall of Cadia. The Dia Defense Fleet, as well as the Cadian Guard, are currently stationed and defending some worlds that have not yet fallen.”

"But most of the fleets are already exhausted, fighting Chaos attacks all over the sector, so there are not many mobile support forces available, so when you showed up, I thought it was."

Spier suddenly stopped and raised his head and looked to the side, as if he was a keen hunter who noticed something. Vito looked at him and frowned slightly, "Who?"

"Them." Spier said, raising his head slightly to signal to the top of his head. As Spier nodded, a red warning light lit up on the ceiling above his head. Vito frowned slightly, and Reina's wrist beside him The communicator on her phone suddenly rang. She raised her arm and checked the information projected on the holographic wrist above.

"Marshal, the Emperor's Dream has detected a fleet jump signal, and it's from the Eldar." Reina looked up at Vito and said the last two words calmly. The latter frowned slightly and looked down to one side. Speyer with his head hanging.

"Enemy or friend?" "Both, but now, I guess it's the latter, come on, we have to go to their ship, you know the Eldar don't like our ships."

"That's true. Who would like a warship designed by a weirdo who has a weird obsession with gold?"

Spier said and walked towards the other end of the deck. Vito smiled slightly and nodded to Reina and followed. The latter nodded in response and greeted all the senior members including Peter, leaving behind After getting off the Sun Army and the people on the deck, the group followed Vito and walked with him and Speyer.

Vito walked beside Spier, walking side by side with him, "That Eldar fleet? The Death Army?" "No, they are our old friends."

"The pirate lord of Iyanden, Iriol."
