Warhammer Inquisitor

In the dark corridor of the battleship, the light of the flashlight extended with the footsteps, and the circle of light illuminated the scarlet and gray-black armors. Those burly giants fell together, and the dry blood had almost disappeared. There is no trace, only the deep bolt holes in the wall, and the incomplete traces of the chainsaw sword and power claw cutting through the wall, still telling the story of the great battle at that time.

As Vito and his party went deeper, more and more traces of war were exposed in front of them. Lancelot looked at the broken power armor and the broken bones all over the ground.

The tall giant strode forward with heavy steps, his helmet turned and swept the lights across the corpses, every warrior died in battle, although the number of the heroic Raven Guard was much smaller than that of the traitors, However, through flexible combat deployments and unpredictable infiltration attacks, the invaders suffered heavy losses.

The scarlet armor that fell on the ground, and the obvious redundant gray-black armor, most of them were pierced and shredded by the power claws, and it took a heavy price to kill a Raven Guard.

Lancelot looked at the marks on the vermilion armor. Those marks were very strange to him. He vaguely remembered that he might have seen them somewhere, but he couldn't name them.

"Are these people the Black Legion? I vaguely remember seeing them among the traitors." Lancelot said, the footsteps of the power armor followed Vito one after another, and the judge's flashlight shone on a fallen red armor traitor.

The man's chest was pierced by the bomb, and the entire armor was torn inward and dented. Vito walked past the corpse and bypassed the defensive position in the corridor.

Sandbags, bulletproof steel plates, and broken steel frames were dumped everywhere, and Vito bypassed the wreckage one by one.

"No, it's the Word Bearers." Vito said, Lancelot was a little confused, he looked at the numerous corpses of the Word Bearers around him, "I've never seen so many Word Bearers acting together, Vito ,never."

Yes, there are not many Word Bearers these days, or there are not many of them, and most of them hide under the protection of the evil gods of the warp, and most of the Word Bearers who haunt the physical universe join He took over the Black Legion and threatened the Empire as Chaos Priests and Warlocks.

It is rare for a warband composed purely of Word Bearers to appear, and there are obviously a lot of Word Bearers here, and there may even be more than one warband.

Vito looked at the Raven Guard fighters around him. He looked at those ancient power armor models and remained silent. Lilith followed him and looked around with her hands behind her back. It seemed that there was no one like Vito and Lancelot. heaviness.

"These armor models are very ancient, Inquisitor. I have only seen them in the Halls of Glory of the Chapter, but I can tell that these armors are from the era of the Great Crusade."

Lancelot examined the ancient armor, the ancient power armor inherited from thousands of years ago. It must be said that the quality of the armor at that time was very high. In addition, the environment inside the hull was basically in a dry state. Not bad.

Although most of them were completely unusable due to battle damage, after walking for a long time, Lancelot can conclude that the preservation of this battleship may be good, although considering that it crashed, many parts of it may be It can no longer be repaired and processed, but it still has the value of being excavated, dismantling the usable part and installing it on the Infinity Frontier.

As they went deeper, Lancelot's conjecture was gradually accepted. Although most of the hull parts were damaged to varying degrees, the reactor and large drive shaft were still intact, at least to the extent that they could be repaired and used.

Most of the equipment tested in the ship, although it was covered with dust and suffered losses in the street battles of the space fighters, most of them were only instrumental losses, and the core components below them were probably still working.

It only needs to be awakened a little, and the machine soul here can be revived, and Lancelot is sure that the people of the Mechanicus will be very excited and happy. After all, this is an ancient battleship from the era of the Great Crusade, and there may be some Technology is what is missing and forgotten by the Empire today.

But Lancelot still couldn't understand the Mechanics' obsession with this, and their madness after digging up similar equipment. For Lancelot, these things were just tools.

"The preservation of this ship should be pretty good. We may be able to dig it out and add some of its parts to our ship, although I'm not sure whether the battleship of the Great Expedition Era can be adapted to our ship."

"I believe Omega will take care of it. When we go back, we will give them the coordinates and dig it out." Vito said silently. He looked at the armor around him, and his eyes gradually changed when he saw the Raven Guard armor. Get up.

He recognized where the armor belonged, veterans of the 1st Company, members of the Primarch's side guard.

Vitor broke through a heavily wounded line of defense, before which the corpses of the Word Bearers were dumped, and it was here that the Raven Guard fought most fiercely.

The barricades of the defense line were full of single holes and cut marks. The soldiers in vermilion armor and gray-black armor fell together entangled. A gap was punched in the broken defense line, and it was through this gap that Vito was able to pass.

He reached out to catch Lilith and jumped off the Word Bearers, while Lancelot walked around, pushing the corpses aside to open the way.

They passed through the tragic line of defense and came to the door. It was a room at the end of a long staircase behind the line of defense. The door was closed tightly, and there was a decoration hanging on the door. Some kind of totem made of crow feathers and metal rings.

Vito stood in front of the door looking at that thing, Lancelot also came up to look at it, the judge took a deep breath and pointed to the end of the stairs, "If I remember correctly, according to the database map of the court, That is the command bridge of the hull, where to look, maybe you can activate the backup circuit, at least activate a few display screens to see the situation of the hull."

"Lily, you go up with him. If you need to help the little lion look at those things, if you can." Vito said, Lilith nodded slightly, turned around and patted Lancelot's leg armor to signal him keep up.

Lancelot looked at Vito, "Aren't you together?" "No, I'll take a look inside, maybe there's something of value, you and Lily go up, I'll be back later."

Vito said coldly, Lancelot didn't say anything, he knew that Vito didn't like to explain at this time, and he couldn't explain. He had followed Vito for many years and understood his habits and some thoughts.

If it were someone else in his wargroup, they might suspect that Vito was hiding something and plotting something, but Lancelot believed him, and even if he had doubts, he would trust Vito.

"Come here quickly! Turn on the light for me!" Lilith yelled in the middle of the stairs, and Lancelot walked over immediately, wearing his own helmet light and walking up the stairs.

After confirming that Lancelot had left, Vito took a deep breath, raised his finger and gently pushed inward, and the huge spiritual power instantly penetrated the iron gate, and the gate fell inward to open the passage.

Vito walked in with a flashlight, and he snapped his fingers. With the beating of his fingertips, golden lightning poured into the wall beside him. Suddenly, the whole room lit up. Resuscitated under the charge.

He turned off the flashlight, and walked to the huge desk in the dim light. The desk was very large, far larger than the size of ordinary space warriors.

This room is very simple, to the point of being too simple. There is only a desk, a chair, and a bed. There is nothing else, no extra decorations, and no extra daily necessities.

Its user must be plain, austere, and pragmatic, though he may be distinguished in intellectual cultivation.

Vito looked at the books on the bookshelf. The size of the books had also been magnified according to the users, but the titles of the books on them had not changed in any particular way.

"The Complete Poems of Kant"

Vito smiled, and sighed helplessly, "Kovaz, your taste is as deep as ever."

As Vito waved his finger slightly, the book flew down from the bookshelf and landed in front of Vito. He skillfully opened the huge page, and quickly turned it to page 47 with spiritual power, which was exactly the same as his own impression. Yes, a letter was placed there, the size of a normal human being.

Vito stepped on the page and picked up the letter, he sighed and sat on the floor beside the bookshelf, he sat on the floor looking at the wax seal on the letter, the familiar calligraphy style, and the poetic signature technique It can be called flying, but it does not lose its beauty.

He had always been a literary guy back then. Although he was usually withdrawn and silent, or silent like a rock, Vito knew that his literary quality was no lower than that of Guilliman, although his favorite style was consistent and very melancholic.

Vito opened the envelope and took out the letter that had been sealed for thousands of years. He looked at the yellowed parchment letter and had to say that this might be the reason why the Ministry of Government Affairs likes parchment. After so long, the parchment still ensures that its contents are clearly visible.

"To my dearest friend Vito, I know that you will be the one who will find this letter, my friend, and I know very well that you alone, of all men, will come to seek my footsteps, or By chance, but, my dear friend, please believe in my trust and miss you."

Vito looked at the lines of handwriting, and it was really hard for him to write a letter on such a small letter, and it was so beautiful.

"As you know, I left, I quietly left alone, across the ocean like a lone raven, I'm sorry I didn't say goodbye to you.

"I am ashamed of my warriors, I have not protected them as their father, I am ashamed to face them, I am also ashamed of the emperor and my people, so I left and went to the shadows , use my last life to complete the final redemption."

"And my captain of the guard, he knew me as always, he brought his small group of warriors to catch up with me, I told them my road to redemption, they stubbornly chose to sail with me, I have no right to refuse They, when I kill their brother, I am no longer qualified to refuse them."

"And here, my friend, at last I can tell you, my shadow brother, that I have come to hunt traitors and make them pay, and I have hunted all chaos origin."

"I know, you told me that it wasn't his fault, but brothers killed each other, siblings killed each other, fate has passed, and responsibility has come, and he must pay the price for it, even though we were brothers once."

"Lorgar." Vito sighed and pressed his head. He closed his eyes and sighed sadly. He sat on the ground, on the cold ground.

He raised his eyes and continued to read the lines of letters.

"The members of my guard still follow me, and I am ashamed of my friends, who with me prepared to enter the Eye of Terror, but in the process we were attacked by the Word Bearers, and they gave me the freedom to escape with their lives. Chance, once again, I am ashamed of my sons, I must leave alone, let them sleep forever in the darkness and with the enemy."

"They are dying as I write this, so please forgive me for not being able to say more, my friend."

"I will never forget the good memories of our past, my best friend, and I will never forget my brothers, I will never forget the days when we had a good time drinking together, discussing and thinking about the stars all night, and I will never forget you and my friendship , until the star burns out and time comes to an end."

"Here, I will go to the deepest darkness, the darkness that will never return, and let the traitors join me in the dark night to usher in eternal sleep"

"This is my farewell, my most sincere friend."

Vito put down the letter, he sat in the cold room, alone, on the cold ground, in that deep and cold room, the lights went out again, and the last energy was finally exhausted, And the night once again enveloped everything.

"Going here is a farewell, my friend, my most precious friend, we met for the first time in the dark night, and we will say goodbye again in the dark night."
