Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

He took the urban rail line and arrived at the center of the city. Vito was now further sure that the whole world must have been a dream, and he had never seen the current Cosonia.

Tall buildings stand in the city, and advanced floating bridges constantly change their positions, accurately regulating and segmenting road traffic. The moving ground rises and falls, making the entire city seem to be built among the clouds.

The bright sun was shining high above Vito's head, and the sun's light hit the smooth facade of the building, reflecting the ripples of the mirrors. He looked around the streets with confusion.

Then he looked at the floating guide robot in front of him. It was a small spherical thing with flashing light strips on both sides and only one round eye on its head.

"Did you really lead me right?" he asked, while the robot rolled its eyes, and the magnetic generators on both sides kept opening and closing. "Yes, sir, according to the Corsonia travel guide map, you This is the place to visit.”

"You mean, I'm going to a bakery?" Vito asked in surprise. There was indeed a bakery in front of him. Even from a long distance away, he could already smell the scent of bread. And the heat is well controlled.

But why would you want to find a bakery?

"According to the address you provided, this is it. This guide has ended. I wish you a happy day, progress and unity." After the small hummingbird-like robot finished speaking, it flew away. Vito looked at its retreating figure, and then Looking out at the busy traffic on the street.

After he got off the subway, he got lost as expected. Today's Cosonia is completely different from what he remembered. He asked many directions and got lost several times before finally finding his way with the help of an enthusiastic citizen. Visited the travel service site and received guidance from a guide robot from the automated site.

It was an AI robot, equipped with an intelligent core that could never exist in the Empire. It was a very polite program, but it was just as inhumane as the Mechanicum. It introduced Vito to the city scenery throughout the process and ignored him. Other chit-chat and banter.

The Bingfeng robot brought him here, saying that this was the destination, but Vito always felt that either it was lying to him, or that his own thoughts were deceiving him.

This is an alley, on the edge of the main road, with deserted streets on both sides. He expected to see something grand here, or at least something that would surprise him as much as the city outside, but it was just a street to see. It looks like a remote pedestrian street.

Vito looked around, finally struggled in his mind, looking for the aroma of the bread, and walked towards that place. He wondered all the way whether it was the sudden thought in his mind that was playing tricks on him. , but his idea was quickly dismissed.

"Come here and take a look! Super bread! As long as you eat these breads, you will be as strong as me!" A big man shouted from the front. Vito looked up, and then his eyes widened.

"Togaton?" he shouted in surprise, and the other party also noticed him. This was not difficult, after all, he was the only one on the street.

"Hey? Vito, you're finally here. We've been waiting for you for a long time!" Togaton, a member of the Council of Four Kings, said happily. He stood at the door of the bakery and greeted him. Although Vito was still confused, , but still walked up.

"Did the journey go well? Did anyone recognize you? I guess not. Did you expect that the Commander-in-Chief would come here? Or alone." Togaton rubbed his nose, as humorous, optimistic and light as in his memory. It was pleasant to be near him.

"No one, Togaton. You..." Vito said hesitantly, but did not say that since you are still alive, Duo smiled and leaned forward, holding Vito's arm and hand. The flour was stained on his shoulders.

"Haha, I know it's funny. Who would have thought that we would one day start making bread? Yeah, but there's also a hint of, hey! Guys, look who's here?"

Togaton pulled Vito into the bakery. After opening the door, he saw other people in the store. Loken was immersed in kneading the dough on the dough table. His hands were covered with white powder, and even his face and All over my pale blonde hair.

Vito looked at Loken in surprise. He was wearing a large apron and looked at him in the sun. "Vito?" "Yes, Gavel, that's our old buddy, hey! Aceimander, Say hello too."

Torgadun shouted to "Little Horus" Asimander not far away. He was observing the baking situation of the dough in the oven attentively. He was also wearing an apron, and his body was only filled with the aroma of bread. taste.

Little Horus looked up, slightly surprised at first, and then laughed, "Hello, Vito, long time no see. The last time we met was at the demobilization banquet, right?"

Vito looked at him and looked around the interior of the store. The sunlight shone through the window into this store with a high ceiling. Bread of various shapes were placed on the shelves, releasing a charming fragrance in the sunlight.

He looked at everything around him as if he was dreaming. After a long time, he responded in a confused state, "You guys opened a bakery?"

"That's right!" Togaton beside him patted his chest proudly, "Bake it at home and sell it at home! If you eat the Four Kings Council brand bread, you will become as tall and powerful as us! Believe me, buy it That’s pretty good!”

"Don't lie to him, Togaton." A man with sky-high braids came out of the kitchen. He carried a large bag of flour and placed the flour at Loken's feet from behind the counter. Then he stood up and looked at Togaton. Gaton.

"Hey, Ezekiel, can't you be optimistic? Why are you always trying to tear me down like this?" Togaton protested, but the man with the braided braids held his arms and looked at him, " But it’s true, how much bread did we sell last week?”

"We've just started, trust my instinct, Ezekiel, we will definitely become popular! Then you won't complain every day." Torgadon smiled and patted Vito's shoulder. That's a lot of force, and it's really good for kneading bread, but Vito's shoulders are not bread.

He left Asimand, rubbed his shoulders and looked out at the empty streets, "You should change the store, Togaton, there are too few people here."

"You think I don't want to! The rent of the shops in the commercial street is too expensive, and we can't afford it. This is the place closest to the commercial district. Even though there are few people now, it will be different in a few days when the celebration starts!" “We’ll make a lot of money, then move into a bigger store and make even more money!”

Togaton, a member of the Council of Four Kings, said ambitiously, while Abaddon sighed helplessly. He put his hands on his hips and adjusted the apron on his shoulders, "Look at us, Togaton, a member of the Council of Four Kings, Shadow. Do you know what other people will say when they see the Moon Wolf Warrior selling bread?"

"Okay, Ezekiel, you've complained enough! You don't have to retire, but you're here with us too? So don't make any noise."

Vito looked at Abaddon with a complaint on his face. When he first appeared, Vito subconsciously thought that the Warmaster of Destruction had appeared in front of him, and instinctively wanted to pull out his weapon. If he had brought it In terms of weapons.

But then, Vito saw comfort in Abaddon's eyes. There was no hostility, no desire to kill, only a simple and peaceful look. The man in front of him didn't look like a warrior at all, although he seemed dissatisfied with it. .

Abadon still couldn't calm down his restless heart, which was directly reflected on his face. He looked over, and Vito subconsciously asked, "Why did you retire? Abadon, you don't like this kind of life, right?" ?"

"That's because of me." A rich voice said. Vito looked towards that place and saw a taller figure walking out. He walked out from behind the door and clapped his dough-covered hands.

"I'm sorry, my son, that you have to stay here with us to do this, but you can pursue whatever you want. You are a wolf."

"I swear to follow you forever, my lord, no matter where I am." Abaddon looked at him and said decisively, and he smiled and patted his shoulder, "Having you as my heir is the thing I am most proud of."

"Ahem." Togaton deliberately cleared his throat and raised his head with a smile. He looked at him and nodded with a smile, "Of course, there are you Togaton, Loken and Little Horu. Si, you all make me proud.”

Vito looked at him standing between the bread and dough. There was no madness in the tall giant's eyes, no desire for power, and no smell of blood on his body, only a strong scent of bread.

He looked over and smiled kindly, "Hello, Vitor, how is Terra? Isn't Guilliman flooding you with endless paperwork?"

"Ha! That's why I chose to retire, otherwise I would have to fall into those troubles." He smiled brightly and patted the wet dough in his hand, but Vito still looked at him and in front of him. Countless opposite emotions surged in his heart.

He looked through the window, shining in the sunlight with floating flour particles, with a bright smile like the sun on his face, "Have you heard the news about Russ? He has been found in the extragalactic galaxy again. A habitable planet is looking for immigrants to move there.”

"You did find a job for that frizzy wolf, and all of us." Horus smiled, "I'm so glad you won, otherwise if the Emperor won, damn it, can you imagine what would happen? What will it become?”

"I think I can." Vito whispered after thinking for a moment. He indeed could, because he saw another world line and another story.

Compared with this place, it was like a bad nightmare, a nightmare that he didn't want to go back to. He would rather sleep in this sweet dream and the smell of this bread forever.

Horus looked at Vito and smiled, and then took the freshly baked bread basket from Aceimander, which was filled with freshly baked fragrant bread, "Thank you, little Horus, okay, come on Vito, she's waiting for you."

"she?"

"Of course it's her, she's right here, that's why you're here, right?" Horus said, carrying the basket and walking through the door. Vito and Togaton looked at each other, and the latter smiled brightly and patted him. Patting him on the back, "Go ahead, don't keep the beauty waiting, she has been waiting for you for a long time."

Vito thought for a moment and nodded. He walked in from behind the bar door opened by Abaddon. Little Horus at the oven wiped the back of his hands with his apron and nodded to him with a smile. Vito looked at his face and said, In an instant, the burnt face from another timeline appeared in front of him, like a bad nightmare.

Vito banged his head vigorously, driving the image out of his mind. He strode into the door, where Horus was waiting for him. After Vito followed in, he led him through the courtyard. In the flour-filled corner, I walked past the wall hanging kitchen utensils and the stove and opened another door.

The bright sunlight shone in from behind the door, hitting Vito's face and blinding him for a moment, but gradually he adapted to the sunlight and saw the scenery in front of him.

It was a garden with a tall pear tree there. A gravel path led under the tree, and there was an old bench on the road. A woman sat on it with her legs crossed and read a book. Her silver hair came from The side of her head fell, glistening like molten silver in the sunlight.

Her side face was breathtakingly beautiful under the sunlight. The long eyelashes on her eyes fell down, covering her purple eyes, which were raised to look at Vito at the door.

She showed her most beautiful smile, closed the book in her hand and smiled at him, "Hello, my love."
