Warhammer Inquisitor

The roaring mechanical arm of the dock slid past Varik's head, and Varik looked up at the heavy anchor fixed arm advancing along the track. With the flashing red warning light, the end of the mechanical arm firmly clamped the side rivets of the battleship.

Under the pneumatic transmission, the mechanical pliers inserted the pin into the locking ring of the battleship. As several mechanical pliers completed the locking work one after another, the battleship that slowly slid into the dock was completely stabilized.

Captain Warrick was walking on the pier next to the berth, holding a data tablet in his hand, pointing his finger on it, and looking at the giant ship beside him, the side of the towering battleship Standing on one side like a majestic wall, the dark armored outer layer gleamed faintly in the dock lights.

Numerous heavy-duty fixing brackets leaned up from all around, and those fixing brackets as tall as buildings were firmly attached to the armor layer of the battleship, accompanied by a burst of cooling gas sprayed from the top of the head, Captain Warrick looked at the majestic giant above his head. Cannon, the magnificent cannon lined up stood above the captain's head.

The captain looked up at the huge gun ports lined with doors on the side. Their gun mantlets gleamed dimly under the light like the scales of a dragon. Varik looked at the huge guns, followed by A group of military police with guns also looked up at the giant ship with emotion.

Behind Varik was a whole team of Starport military police, about a dozen of them, each of these military police wearing gray breastplates and Imperial Skyhawk chains around their necks was holding a laser gun, and they were branded with Thai The helmet of the star of Ra, followed behind the captain in full armor.

Captain Warrick looked at the warship that had stopped beside him. He turned his head and snapped his fingers at the ground crew not far away, and soon those ground crew chatting on the box looked at the captain.

"Don't be lazy there, and prepare to stop at the port for a connection, the Emperor! This is the ship of the Inquisition Court, and you will be shot if you are a little negligent, and you will be taken with me!"

The captain pointed at the ground crew and yelled and cursed, he pointed at the surrounding flatbed trucks, fuel pipelines and more dock tools, and soon the ground crew was moved by the captain's "considerate" curses for eighteen generations of their ancestors stand up.

The ground crews began to spread out to operate everything around them, and soon the pier began to operate in an orderly manner. The heavy machinery began to roar and approach the battleship, and the transmission pipelines approached the battleship from one side. Those pipelines connected with several cables On the open nozzle of the battleship.

Amidst the countless pressurized gas, low fuel residue and the complaints of the ground crew, Captain Warrick walked to the side landing deck of the battleship. He walked to the edge of the pier deck, looked at the deck and raised his head.

The gendarmerie behind him stood behind the captain, and their eyes under their helmets were also looking at the huge deck hatch in front of them. A huge imperial sky eagle was branded on the gate as high as a city wall, and it flashed lights around it. A streamer of light flickered under the light, and soon milky white injection gas sprayed out from the top of the gate.

Accompanied by the gas ejected from the latch, the huge landing deck gate began to be lowered slowly, and the majestic high wall slowly descended with the roaring sound of gears turning.

Captain Warrick cleared his throat. He held the data board and looked at the border of the gate that was a few steps away from him. The grand gate of the landing deck hangs on the pier, connecting the inside of the battleship with the pier like a bridge. Together, amidst the heavy roar of the landing, the captain looked up at the figure at the top of the gate.

There were several figures standing by the door, and Varik looked at the man leading down from above. He was wearing a pitch-black windbreaker, with silver armor inlaid on the shoulders of the windbreaker, and the reflective armor flashed The unique rippled light, under the black windbreaker, also faintly revealed the golden long sword and a precision bolter with shaking.

But nothing in it is as eye-catching as the logo on his belt. Varik looked at the coat of arms logo hanging on the belt, and when the captain looked at the red letter i, he swallowed instinctively, and When he looked up and saw the three space warriors walking down behind the man, the captain was so nervous that he couldn't even swallow his saliva.

Behind the man, a tall golden armored warrior walked down with heavy steps. His burly body was taller than any space warrior Varik had ever seen. As a native of Terra, Varik had seen many market, but he had never seen such a tall and burly space warrior.

The gendarmes behind him looked at the interstellar soldiers walking down like a mountain, and couldn't help but clenched their laser guns. They looked nervously at the demigod giant, even if they knew that they were loyal to Fang, angels loyal to the emperor, but Its huge sense of coercion still made them tense up involuntarily.

Varik raised his head and looked at the space warriors who came down. They stepped onto the ground of the pier, and their mountain-like bodies cast a huge shadow on the captain. His eyes looked up at the space warriors in front of him. Warhelm, looking at his Space Marine with scarlet eyes.

"Ahem, I think you are here to meet us, right?" A voice said in front of Varik. The captain was startled and lowered his head to see the smiling judge in front of him. It might be more appropriate to call it scary.

The captain twitched after being startled. He looked at the judge in front of him and stammered and wanted to say something, but he was obviously frightened by the judge who brought three demigods to him, especially the one behind him. Varik was the burliest Space Marine he had ever seen.

"When you see the officer, stand at attention first, Captain." The yellow-armored space warrior said in a deep voice from inside the helmet, and the voice beat the captain like a whip, and Varik immediately stood at attention after a panic. Alright, I gave a slightly flustered and non-standard military salute to the judge in front of me.

"Captain Warrick, I was ordered to lead my troops to check your situation, Judgment." "Check our situation? Hmph, this is really new."

Vito didn't wait for Varik to finish, he stepped forward and walked up to the captain. He looked at Vito's eyes and curled back in fright, and Vito watched the captain continue to smile kindly.

"Check what? Am I still the three Astartes behind me?" Vito said with a smile, and Varik glanced at the three Astartes standing behind Vito. They were all wearing helmets, which belonged to The strong sense of coercion from the Angel of Death unabashedly applied to the captain.

"I, I. I was ordered to check the integrity of your crew, and the lower deck."

"The lower deck has been cleared by us, and all filth has been obliterated. Do you suspect that we have brought those abominations to the throne world to stain the light of the emperor?" Astarte in yellow armor Said in a low voice, his voice was released through the sound transmission part of the helmet, it sounded like the voice of an ancient god.

Varik looked at the Astartes, he looked at the emblem on his chest, and as a native of Terra, Captain Varik recognized his emblem immediately.

"Imperial Fist? I thought you jumped into the subspace with the Shanzhen. We tried to contact you, but no one responded. We thought you had already"

"Dead? Are you suspecting that the entire army of palace guards has been wiped out? Captain." The Imperial Fists stepped forward, and the huge armored footsteps stepped on the ground. The sound and the shock that came made the captain back away in fright. After taking a few steps, he bumped into the military police behind him before standing firm.

Varik leaned against the gendarmes behind him, looked at the Imperial Fist and stammered, "No, no, no, I firmly believe that you will still return, my lord, I promise! I never have those heresies idea!"

Varik hurriedly begged for mercy, and he looked at Vito again, looking at the smiling judge in front of him, who was terrified. He knew that just now he "doubted and believed" that the Imperial Fists were dead. Enough for the Inquisitor to shoot himself ten times for heresy, sedition and wavering.

"I believe you haven't, Captain, tell me now, why are you here?" Vito walked up with a smile, he pressed the captain's shoulder, and the captain's whole body shivered in fright when he pressed up. He looked at the smiling judge and got goosebumps all over his body.

"I was ordered to inspect the cargo on the ship, the items carried, and collect and store them in accordance with the Navy's management regulations. After the inspection is completed, I will return them to you."

Vito laughed softly, and he patted the captain's shoulder with a smile, "If I remember correctly, all the things carried on the Inquisition Chamber ship are all "confidential" content, belonging to the Inquisition Chamber's assets, Captain, are you trying to confiscate the assets of the Inquisition?"

"What? No! No! My lord, I am only following orders. We are only ordered to confiscate the food and food on the refugee fleet here." The intimidation and the deterrence of the Astartes behind him suddenly lost his mind, and he slipped his mouth.

The captain looked terrified at the military police behind him, but the latter were all looking like you're making fun of me. Varik looked at them, and suddenly he was patted on the shoulder again, and then looked at Vito beside him in shock.

The latter still looked at him with a smile on his face. Vito nodded slightly, and lightly tapped the data pad on the captain's hand with his fingers, "You want to confiscate the food? It's interesting. If I remember correctly, when entering the port I also did not see enough transport ships on the star port, the current number is at best only one-fifth of the normal one."

"Tell me, Captain, why did your superiors confiscate what food?" Vito said softly beside Varik. The captain was so frightened that he stammered, "Sir, I can't, I will be "

"What will happen to you after that, I don't know, but if you don't tell me now, I will have to pursue your rumors about the Imperial Fists just now." Vito said and tapped the captain's waist lightly with his finger The latter looked at Vito with wide eyes in surprise, his pupils vibrating in panic.

Vito looked at Varik beside him with a smile and turned his head to look at the pier on the side. He looked at the busy ground crew, the judge's palm slipped from the captain's shoulder, and with the slip of Vito's palm, , the captain twitched, and when Vito walked around behind him and appeared on the other side of him, the captain was so nervous that he was on the verge of cardiac arrest.

Vito held one hand behind his back, and with the other hand gently lifted the corner of the windbreaker, and pressed his fingers on the hilt of the sword on his waist, "Whether it is according to your navy's battlefield regulations or the regulations of the court, Spreading heretical lies, undermining morale and defeatist speeches are crimes punishable by death."

Vito gently pulled out the blade, and he purposely made the scabbard rattle so loudly that Captain Warrick could definitely hear it, and the latter could indeed hear it, and was half-dead in fright.

After seeing the cold sweat streaming down Varik's forehead, Vito smiled and let go, and the hilt slid back into the scabbard, "Of course, I can also ignore your mistake, if you tell me, now The situation in Terra, and why your superiors confiscated food from me and those refugees who I have guaranteed to be safe, I can still give you a letter of appointment."

"Authorize Captain Warrick to take full responsibility for the refugee fleet on behalf of the court, as well as the placement and maintenance of the warship in front of you. From then on, you will work for the court, and anyone who troubles you will also You're making trouble for me, you're making trouble for the Inquisition."

Vito smiled and moved closer to Varrick's face, who looked at Vito's face, and Vito continued to smile with that smile, "So, what would you choose, Captain."

After saying that, Vito withdrew his body, he walked past the captain, he walked in front of the three Astartes, Vito seemed to be quietly waiting for the captain with his back to the captain, the latter held the data in his hand The board struggled for a while, his fingers gripping the data plate tightly, but soon gave up under the extreme pressure.

The captain rubbed his forehead, raised his head to look at Vito's back and sighed, "Terra currently has insufficient food and drinking water reserves. As you know, Terra's food and water are completely dependent on the transportation and transportation from other planets. supply, and now."

"Because of the sudden attack of Chaos, all transportation lines have been cut off, and Terra's material reserves are seriously insufficient." Vito said with his back to the captain, and he slightly turned his head to look at the captain behind him, who shook gently shook his head.

"It's not serious, but it's not enough at all. The current food reserves are simply not enough to meet the needs of the huge population on Terra, so the high lord council ordered that all the food and water be collected, stored and kept in a centralized place so that for a "reasonable" distribution."

Vito turned around with a smile. He looked at the captain in front of him with one hand on his hips. He pointed to the military police behind him, "So, your superior, the Director of Orbital Defense, heard what Captain Cole said. After Mars got the supplies, he started thinking about it and planned to keep our supplies in custody."

"Let me guess where Terra's food and drinking water is stored."

"Imperial Palace, yes, my lord." The captain said softly, in a very low voice, as if saying something would make someone's head fall.

Vito turned his head to look at Eisenstein behind him, who also snorted contemptuously, Vito shrugged with a mocking smile and looked at the captain, "Beside the high lords, they stock up all the supplies By the side of my own palace, why am I not surprised at all?"

Those guys are in a shortage of supplies in all of Terra, and everyone can’t get enough to eat. They give priority to ensuring that they and the Terra nobles, elites, and senior officials in the palace walls can live, at least live longer, and live until the subspace storm One day it will subside, and the imperial reinforcements arrive to relieve the siege.

Obviously, the Director of Orbital Defense is also a member of these "priority protection" groups, so in order to live longer, until they can continue to rule this vast empire as the imperial elite again, he will be very motivated for himself, Collect enough food for your elite partners.

"Since you are willing to help him collect supplies, I think you have a place within the high walls of the palace, right? Captain Warrick, you have become a captain of the navy at a young age. Remember correctly, the surname Varik is a noble surname, right?"

Vito smiled sarcastically and looked at Varik. The latter lowered his head in shame. He nodded slightly to admit this. Vito watched the captain raise his head slightly, and then nodded in satisfaction. .

"Very well, it seems that the situation is similar to what I expected, but don't worry about the captain, I will not execute you for this." Vito said and walked to the edge of the pier on the side, where he stood on the edge of the void where he was moored, Infinite Frontier The trumpet is suspended in the void opened here.

Vito lowered his head and looked down at himself, the layers of orbits below the blue void shield, the rings of Terra circling the orbits of the planet, Vito's eyes looked through the complex surrounding rings to the surface below , the surface covered by countless cities, the gorgeous city area near the golden palace of the royal palace, the residential area of ​​Terra elites.

They will live until then, they are the elite of the empire, they have to survive, and the civilians of the empire outside the wall, I don’t think they are in their consideration, it’s ironic to say that all the places that Vito has been to are under siege The planet, and its idiot rulers, would choose to do this as if it would actually make them live longer, rather than being killed by an angry rebel populace before Chaos arrived.

And it's stupid. It seems that the shortage of food and the threat of death have made the minds of these elites a bit worse than before. Since they are so stupid, they have started to pay attention to the materials of the Tribunal.

Vito smiled contemptuously. He walked up to the captain. He stood beside him with his hands behind his back and looked at the huge mechanical arm above his head. There was a striking Mechanicum logo on the mechanical arm that locked the Infinite Frontier and the pier. The mechanical skull is branded on one side of the mechanical arm, and the gears and Mars logo surround it.

"When I was going to Mars, the Mechanicus provided us with supplies. I guess, the food and drinking water reserves on Mars are quite sufficient. After all, according to the habits of those oil guys, they will calculate the amount of supplies during the "safety" period. In addition, more data redundancy is being built."

"Mars should have stored a lot of combat supplies over the years, enough to share with Terra. Tell me, Captain, haven't you contacted Mars?"

Vito turned his head slightly to look at Captain Warrick, who was silent for a moment while looking at the data pad in his hand, and then looked around, which made Vito laugh speechlessly.

"Everyone around here is my own. If you feel that you and I are in the same group, Captain, so, just say it." Vito stepped forward and pressed the shoulder of the superior. After some thought, the latter chose Opening his mouth, he met Vito's eyes.

"I heard from my father that the Martians refused the request for rations, and the foundry general demanded that Mars should first protect itself. They not only refused the distribution of rations and drinking water, but even a ship and a regiment of skitaris They didn’t send Terra to help, and they all went back to Mars.”

"According to him, they must give priority to defending the sacred intellectual heritage. As for Terra, may the Emperor bless us." The captain sighed helplessly. Vito smiled unabashedly after hearing this, and he lightly After a snort, he raised his head slightly.

"And he completely ignored that if Terra fell, their little planet would be dead after the Emperor's death. Mars is so close to Terra, it is impossible to expect any self-protection, unless Abaddon's brain is pumped, Or maybe he has a way of making Abaddon think of him as one of his own, or else it's all"

Vito stopped suddenly when he said this, his smile gradually froze, and then quickly turned into a gloomy expression. The captain on one side looked at Vito with a different expression, and at the same time, he also had some fear. He was quite cautious. looked at Vito.

"My lord, is there a question?"

Vito glanced at the captain with a cold face, and then patted the frightened captain on the shoulder, "No, it's nothing, at least it has nothing to do with you, and, I mean what I say, you are mine now, and you Both."

As he spoke, he looked at the gendarmes behind the captain, and they all nodded in response. In every sense, it is a good thing to be the entourage of the judge. People can take revenge, and they can also obtain a stable supply in the current situation of material shortage and famine that may come at any time. From Vito's current rich supply, the probability of them surviving after the war will be greater.

So yes, they hit the jackpot.

Vito looked at the gendarmes who made no secret of his joy and smiled. He patted his superior on the shoulder and walked away along the road at the pier. The captain looked at Vito's leaving back and soon looked at love Senstein and the other two Astartes followed, watching the three people walking away, the captain heaved a long sigh of relief, and then went to the ground crew on the side and shouted.

"You lazybones! Let me move, now I am fully responsible here!"

Vito led the three of them along the pier for a certain distance and then stopped. After Vito stopped, he turned his head and looked at the captain who was commanding the ground crew and yelling in the distance.

Vito's expression was not very good. The smile that was always on his face disappeared. He looked at the busy ground staff in the distance with a cold face. Eisenstein stopped beside Vito, and he took off his With his helmet on, the company commander showed his face and looked at Vito in front of him.

"There's something wrong with the Mechanicum, isn't it?"

"Yes, shit, the situation in the solar system is worse than I thought. These idiots are amazing." Vito rubbed his forehead speechlessly. He raised his head and looked at Eisenstein in front of him after complaining in a low voice. .

"I'm going to Antarctica, you stay here, watch our stuff, don't let anyone you don't trust get on board, if there are any idiots who want to steal our supplies, shoot him."

"Of order, Marshal." Eisenstein looked at Vito who turned and walked away along the pier, he raised his arm after walking a long distance, he looked at his lit communicator, "Helen, put the The Aquila is coming out."

Eisenstein looked at Vito in the distance, his figure gradually disappeared at the end of the busy pier, at the end of the steam and various operating machinery.

After a moment of silence, the company commander put on his helmet again. He turned around and nodded to the two brothers, and then straddled the chainsaw sword and walked towards the deck gate of the Infinity Frontier. The two brothers followed him and walked along the road together. Walking towards the edge of the pier towards the warship.

They all know that a storm far greater than expected is coming, and the solar system will once again be engulfed in blood, by the blood of traitors.
