Warhammer Inquisitor

"Wow, I didn't expect that since you convinced these guys, I thought it would take some blood." Evelyn walked around and looked around the surrounding buildings with her hands behind her back. Buildings made of platinum, milky white marble and red tapestry stand around.

"Calgar is a smart man, he can understand these things, I don't worry about things." Vito said as he stepped on the pink and white white diamond ground, surrounded by a circle of Ultramarine guards, blue The Sekai giants walked on both sides, saying they were guards but in fact they were more like watching them.

At this time Vito and his party, as well as the honor guards brought by Calgar as "guards", were walking on the streets of Ultramar. In the past, there were always crowds of people here, and there would be many peddlers selling goods on the side of the road. , the shouts were as loud and long-lasting as the bells of the magnificent temple ahead, and this place was always very lively in the past, after all, this was the pilgrimage road leading to the sleeping place of Guilliman.

The streets here are made extremely wide, enough for dozens of Ultramarines to pass side by side, or for an armored company of tanks to drive side by side. Normally, this wide road is used for pilgrims.

In times of peace, there are always many pilgrims here. Pious believers from all over the empire come here from thousands of miles away. They will line up in groups of endless roaming teams, extending from here to the gate of the city of glory. Outside, a procession of pilgrims that stretches for several kilometers will recite hymns and hold high the countless banners of faith and slowly walk towards the Great Temple.

Over the years, those devout believers will let the chant and incense burner smoke fill the streets, as long as you get close to here, you can smell the smell of cigarettes, jasmine, violets, daffodils or scarlet roses and so on.

Those soot powders are constantly sprinkled from the incense burner, and the pink ash is sprinkled on the white road under the feet. With years of trampling, grinding and the passage of time, the color finally blends with the ground, making the ground of this avenue Different places show different colors, so this avenue is also called the Rainbow Road.

But the situation these days is quite different. The streets that used to be filled with pilgrims and peddlers are empty, the stalls are all empty, and the commercial streets and hotels along the street on both sides are all empty. The chill and dead silence remained.

The once-scented streets are now extremely pungent and unbearable. The fragrance of the censer is replaced by the firing gas of countless anti-aircraft artillery, and countless war machines are running at full speed to expel the stench.

Even the sky of Macragge, which used to be clear and clear, was covered with a layer of haze. The flames of the explosion flickered in the air, and the surface of the void shield covering the city was billowing with flames. Marble columns soared, illuminated by golden garlands.

Vito looked at the Great Sanctuary at the end of the avenue. It was a magnificent Roman-style palace, and outside it was a circle of huge stone columns. The two sides of the road extend all the way down to the end of the avenue.

On one side of those stone pillars, the flag of Ultramar was flying, and on the other side was the flag of the Aquila of the Empire, which symbolized Macragge's ownership and their loyalty to the Empire.

Vito watched a series of anti-aircraft artillery fire rising from behind the Great Temple. A series of slender barrages shot at Tianji, and those shells continuously turned and pulled out an arc of barrage in the air.

This reminded Vito of an old place in his memory. It was the same in Berlin, Germany in 1945. It was the end of the Third Reich, but he didn't know if today would be the end of Macragge.

"You have done a miracle, my old friend." Aidalad walked towards Vito with his hands interlocked on his stomach. Vito glanced at Aidalad, and behind them was a whole row of stars Warriors, Ragnar is discussing the surrounding buildings with Lancelot, and having an in-depth discussion on the "artistic quality" of these buildings.

Loken was with Derantius and Kaur. These members of the ten thousand year old club were talking with each other, looking back on the past and reminiscing about history.

Olaf was with Marshal Amalik, and the two veterans were talking about each other's military past. In short, although the situation above the head did not look very good, at least everyone on Vito's side was in a good mood.

"I knew you were the only one who could convince the Ultramarines, and that's why I called you to Macragge." Edalard spoke in that elegant, squeaky-accented High Gothic, and he Obviously, she is better than Evelyn in this aspect. Although Evelyn is now dressed like an Eldar nobleman, her Gothic language still has a strong pirate accent.

"Persuasion is the first step, but I hope you can really do it, Eldar, or we will be finished." Celestine said and landed beside Vito, her wings closed behind her.

"If you fail, or lie to Calgar, then I think you will die in an ugly way." Celestine said, and Aidalard looked at Celestine with a smile, and he nodded.

"Please rest assured, Miss Celestine, what we said is not a lie, Evelyn has fully grasped the power bestowed by the god of death, and can skillfully use the skills of the soul, and we even paid a lot for it. "

"What's the price?" Vito asked with interest. Adalad just wanted to describe it in a more euphemistic way, but Evelyn obviously didn't like the kind of expression that goes around and around, so she directly grabbed it. Opportunity to speak.

"I pulled out the crone's sword on the circuit of Beltan's Ark. The power of the god of death is completely under my control, but the ark in my hometown is considered useless." Evelyn said, pulling out the sword that destroyed half of the people. Ark's sword, Vito raised his eyebrows and looked at the slender blade.

There is a circle of patterns of the ancient spirit race on the body of the silver-white knife, and the hilt is also very unique, as if it was naturally grown from a kind of metal-like wood, and the intertwined appearance cannot be carved by a craftsman.

The weapon looked very unique, as if it had life itself. Vito squinted his eyes to observe the sword carefully, but he didn't gain anything, and finally cast a questioning look at Adalad.

The Great Prophet smiled, and he nodded slightly to Vito, "It is said that this weapon was made by the fingers of Mori, the wife of the blood god Kane. She hopes to gain the wisdom in her own blood, but only Kane can harm her. , so she let her daughters scream and torture their father Kane, and if this torture is to end, Kane must cut off Moiraine's finger, so that she can drink his own blood."

"Finally Kane agreed to do it, and Murray Haig got the wisdom in her own blood, and her five fingers that were cut off turned into a crone's sword. This is one of them, named the Sword of Elayne. The sword, which is inserted into Beltan's ark circuit, serves as the core of the ark's spiritual vein network."

Aidalard explained, while Vito and Celestine looked at each other, and after a moment of thinking, they turned their heads to look at Aidalard, "The gods of your Eldar race really have a lot of personality."

Evelyn shrugged. She turned the Elayne sword, as if the bone blade was spinning and tearing the surrounding air in her palm. The tip of the knife seemed to be releasing spiritual power all the time, enough for a small area tear space.

"When it was pulled out, the spirit vein network exploded, and almost all the souls in the ark's circuit were swallowed by Slaanesh." Evelyn said, and Adalad smiled awkwardly. Cut off Evelyn's embarrassing self-report.

"We made a remedy in time, rescued all the souls through a sufficient amount of soul stones, we injected those soul stones into the ghost structure, and now our compatriots can walk among us again."

"It sounds like you almost killed an ark, and finally pulled the already dead Eldar to work overtime, but well, at least I hope you won't make such a big fuss this time." Vito shrugged Said, Eldallard nodded again and again, "I assure you not, old friend." "I hope so."

Vito said and looked at Bell in front of him. He was walking at the front of the team, walking alone. Vito watched him nod to Celestine and Edalard and walked up quickly.

Bell looked at the Great Temple with countless anti-aircraft guns rising in the distance. He was depressed and his expression was gloomy. Vito walked up to him and patted his gauntlet and said with a smile on his face.

"What's the matter? You look like your father is dead. Your father is still alive and well, and he will be able to stand up in a while." Vito really made such a very outrageous joke. With that kind of joke, really, you wouldn't like the possible consequences.

Bell looked at Vito gloomyly looking up at the cloud-covered sky, and the blast air and dust enveloped the blue sky of the whole world.

"My homeland is under siege, and countless compatriots have died in the flames of war. Although the Lord Primarch is about to rise, I fear we have let him down."

"How will he feel when he sees this scene in front of him." Bell said emotionally, like a child who has screwed up an exam and is now going to see his father.

Vito patted his arm encouragingly and smiled, "Don't worry, we'll get these dogs out of here soon, and trust me, Guilliman has done a lot of stupid things."

"Master Primarch, have you ever done such a stupid thing?" Bell asked suspiciously, while Vito rubbed his palms with a wicked smile, "I'll tell you slowly, one by one. "

A group of people quickly walked up the steps of the Great Sanctuary. They followed Calgar and entered the Great Sanctuary. When everyone passed through the temple guards outside the golden embossed gate, they entered the main hall of the temple. hall.

Vito followed Calga into the hall. It is not that he has never been here, but after all, it is quite shocking to enter here again after so many years.

This sacred palace is almost as magnificent as the Emperor's palace on Terra, and the Ultramarines have used all the wealth they can, gems and gold, and art to decorate here.

The majestic statues stand directly on both sides as supporting pillars, and the statues of space warriors holding divine weapons stand like silent guards. Above their heads are circles of arc-shaped dome beams. There are a total of ten beams spanning the huge On the curved beams of the hall, huge banners hang from each beam.

That is the banner that perfectly corresponds to the ten companies of the Ultramarines. Not only the banners of the Ultramarines, but also countless flags are hung on both sides of the grand hall against the wall. Those huge banners hanging above the head are densely packed. In line, those are the flags of all registered Ultramarines sub-clans, even those that have died out entirely.

Here the thousands of Guilliman's sons had deposited their spirits, for millennia, beside their father, who now sat in the immobile position at the end of the great hall.

Calgar walked in front of the static stand, which was quite a height difference from the floor of the hall. The high platform was made entirely of the most precious wood, and its preciousness was enough to scare any imperial nobles, but the Ultramarines still spent a lot of time building it. off the high platform.

The up and down are connected by curved steps on both sides. Red carpets are laid on the surface of those wide steps. In the middle of the two curved steps is an eagle with wings spread. The golden eagle spreads its wings and steps on a planet. , the Legion emblem of the Ultramarines is imprinted on the surface of the planet.

That's right, it's the emblem of the Legion. Did you forget when this place was built?

Calgar took the lead and knelt down under the high platform. All the Ultramarines knelt down at the same time. Even Sicarius knelt down without any hesitation. Bell next to Vito knelt down on one knee, and all the warriors knelt down toward the sleeping The Gene Father bowed to his knees.

Vito looked up at the sleeping Guilliman, who was still wearing the power armor and sitting on the throne, on his knees the emperor's own flaming holy sword lay flat on his knees, but due to the static position The flame also seems to have been pressed the pause button, and the raging flames freeze in the air, which looks weird.

Vito looked at Guilliman's face, he was still the same as he remembered, handsome, young and resolute, he hadn't changed at all, both externally and internally, looking at his face, Vito suddenly felt that the sea had changed , the time is so strange, obviously ten thousand years have passed, but it seems that time has not passed at all.

Calgar stood up, he turned his head to look at Kaur like a mountain, and the suspension equipment vehicle behind him also entered the hall, "Go and put on the armor for the Primarch, when the static force field disappears, you only have one minute to assemble Good armor, or the blood of Baneblade will kill him."

"And you, the Eldar, I will supervise you when you perform your ceremony." Calga said and walked up to Evelyn, and Calga, who was more than four meters tall, stood on top of her like a mountain. In front of you, the strong sense of pressure can almost suffocate you.

"As long as you have a little bit, such a little bit of movement that makes me suspicious, Eldar, I will kill you immediately." Calgar growled and raised his iron fist to point at Ifrene's chest. Pointing, the latter looked at him with a sneer and disdain.

"So you'd better move carefully and carefully, Eldar woman." "You don't need to teach me, Tin Can, we don't have much time so let's get started, engine oil guy."

Evelyn said and waved her hand. Kaul nodded slightly to Vito and then led the suspension platform to the high platform. Calga watched the two people passing by clenched their fists and looked at Sicarius. The second company Chang also walked up holding the hilt of his sword.

"While I supervise them, be alert to all surroundings." "Follow Chapter Master."

Sicarius saluted and said, Calga nodded slightly before he was about to walk up the steps and stopped, he was interrupted by a rush of communication, Calga stopped, Kaur and Evelyn also stopped , the latter has gone up several steps.

They turned to look at Calgar, and the Chapter Master cocked his head to listen to the hoarse communicator, and almost at the same time Vito's communicator rang, and he immediately raised his wrist to bring it to his ear.

"What's wrong Cole?" Vito asked.

"Report the situation to Mikael." Calgar said to his communicator. After a burst of hoarse radio interference, the voice of the communicator was finally barely audible, and Mikael's voice came from there in a hurry.

"Chapter Master, the Chaos Fleet is conducting a suicide attack on the City of Glory! We have detected several Chaos battleships falling into the atmosphere under artillery fire!" Mikael's voice shouted.

"Those bastards are going to force their way through the void shield with orbital impact, those lunatics, we severely damaged their ships but they fell straight into the atmosphere, Vito! If you're in the hall, get out of there immediately!"

Cole's voice yelled over the communicator, and Vito looked up through the stained glass windows in the dome to the sky, and he made a brief summary as he watched the burning battleship burst through the clouds.

"Fuck, they really know how to play."
