Warhammer Inquisitor

Chapter 416 The Expedition Road: The Sword of Baal

The Sword of Baal, if I remember correctly, it is a member of the Blood Angels Expeditionary Fleet. It is said that there is an unwritten rule in the Blood Angels battle group. Any battleship with a sword, spear or blade as its name , usually undertake expedition missions, they will carry the company of the Blood Angels to all corners of the galaxy.

The battleships with shield, armor or guard as part of the name are usually the garrison ships of the chapter. They usually do not leave the home planet of the chapter. The blood-red Baal galaxy is too far away. Monastery with the mission of storing holy relics under it.

So most of the time, the Blood Angel battleships you can see in the empire are the former. They are the sharp dagger blades of the chapter piercing the galaxy, and the war arks that end the enemies of the emperor and the angels in the name of holy blood.

However, powerful battleships also need supplies, just like monks who are as strong as Astartes also need to eat and rest. Although they are indeed different from ordinary people in all aspects, they are still human after all, aren't they? The same is true for their battleships. As battleships, they need to stop at the port for supplies.

So when Vito saw the huge mechanical arm above his head, connecting the fuel hose to the oil port of the battleship, he probably knew the purpose of this Blood Angels company coming here. In the Dia star area, look at the only supply point a few light-years away.

What I mean is that you don't need to fight the rebels or traitor space marines that occupy it first, and you can directly get supplies and repairs.

Vito walked under the oil pipeline, his boots clattering on the marble floor of the pier, coupled with the footsteps of Lilith's high-heeled boots behind him, the bursts of footsteps soon overwhelmed him. The sound of soldiers cleaning armor, maintaining and overhauling weapons passed.

The Blood Angels sitting or surrounding them were originally chatting with their genetic brothers. Some of them were talking and sharing their recent war experiences, while others were helping each other to clean the back of the armor and the back of the neck. This kind of place that can't be reached by oneself.

Of course, there are also organic servants who can do the work here, but the soldiers obviously trust their fighting brothers more. As far as Vito can see, there is a blood angel holding a rag. I mean, it is a rag for them. Well, from a mortal point of view it's definitely a big bath towel or something.

The Holy Blood Angel washed the blood on the back of the neck of the brother of the lamenter who was sitting in front of him. It was obviously not his blood. The bolter in his hand was oiled, cleaned and maintained, and the reciter chanted words to appease the soul of the machine.

But soon he stopped. As I said before, the footsteps of Vito and Lilith were loud. The Blood Angel brothers behind him also stopped the rags they were holding, and raised their heads to look at the two passing by.

The surrounding Astartes all stopped, and the warriors in the crimson armor and golden armor all followed the sound. They stared at the two people passing by on the deck, and the one who also cast their gaze was not far away. At the edge of the pier, several high-ranking officers were standing below the deck of the battleship.

One of the warriors, who was wearing the Blood Angels crimson battle armor, turned his head and looked at the unique black shoulder armor on his left shoulder. He slightly raised his head to the other person beside him, and the tall figure with his back to Vito immediately Then he turned around, and it was a burly warrior, his size was huge because he was wearing a piece of Terminator armor.

There are several space warriors beside him, besides the crimson armor on one side, there is also this weeper wearing a golden battle armor, among them, the leader of the Marakin Chapter Commander also looked away, when Vivian He knelt almost without thinking as Thor approached.

As the Malakin Chapter knelt on one knee, the company commanders of the Wailers behind him also knelt down, followed by the leaders of the Chapter kneeling, and all the Wailers around him also knelt alone. They knelt down to a mortal without hesitation in front of their blood angel brothers, which surprised and puzzled the blood angels among them.

But soon, the veterans among the Blood Angels immediately knelt down, and almost at the same time, their company commander, an old soldier wearing Terminator power armor, stared at Vito who was walking in front of him, He also knelt down without any hesitation, the heavy Terminator knelt down, and the huge armor made a heavier roar than other power armors.

As the company commander knelt down, although the remaining Blood Angels were still a little puzzled, they still chose to obey the company commander's silent order. On both sides of Vito's passage, the red and golden star warriors All knelt on one knee, they lined up on both sides, and more than 300 space warriors bowed their heads to salute him.

Vito laughed watching them, he walked up to the company commander wearing a Terminator, looked at his face and said with a smile, "Commander Aoori, you don't need to do this."

"It should be so, Master Vito, even if I don't know your real identity, your past experience of fighting side by side with our warband is enough to earn you our respect." Oreo said in a thick voice, that His voice was a bit old, but Vito knew that the warrior in front of him was still powerful, don't be fooled by his old appearance and gray hair, he was a powerful warrior.

Or rather, among the space warriors, these seemingly old warriors with white hair and beards and wrinkled faces are the ones you really need to be vigilant about. Because remember, the aging rate of Astartes is very slow, but when an old soldier appears in front of you, you should realize that he is a veteran who has lived through hundreds of years of fighting, from thousands of battles Essence of the Chapter that survived a difficult battle.

Every Chapter has its veterans who are revered, not only for their skill in battle, but also for the glory of the tough battles they have endured, and more because of almost every one of them. , are the living history of a warband.

And among the Blood Angels, there are many such veterans, and their representative is Captain Dante, who has lived for a full thousand years, second only to the youngest wolf Bjorn of the Space Wolves. Long Starfighter.

Vito smiled, he still clearly remembered his experience of fighting side by side with Captain Oreo, and he believed that the other party also remembered, so soon Vito patted his shoulder armor, "Then get up Come, my friend, let us be equals."

"As you wish, my lord." Oreo said and stood up. Vito smiled and looked over his burly body and looked at Malakin behind him. He nodded to the latter.

"Get up too, Malakin. Seriously, every time I reveal my identity, a group of my old acquaintances kneel in front of me. It feels as uncomfortable and awkward as kicking your toes on a steel plate."

There was obvious laughter in Vito's words, and Malakin also stood up with a smile. Following the presence of the Supreme Commander of the Blood Angels and Lamenters, Captain Oreo raised his head and looked around. Young Blood Angels.

He clenched his iron fist, glanced at them and said sharply in a thick voice, "You young people may have heard of the name of Vito Constantine, you have heard of his powerful fighting power, his outstanding strength and You may have wondered how could a mortal be so respectful of the reputation of the leader himself? That must be a lie."

"But I can tell you today that all the rumors you have heard are true. No matter how outrageous or unbelievable what you hear, it is the truth! The person in front of you is not extraordinary! He is Vito Constantine, the true Supreme Mentor of the Inquisition Chamber and Assassin's Chamber, Lord of the High Lords, Supreme Marshal of the Empire!"

Aouri said loudly, he was chanting Vito's long and deadly titles, and described the extraordinary existence in front of him with a stern voice, which made Vito feel embarrassed and had nowhere to hide.

"The only mistake we have about him is that no one knows his identity, his true noble identity, and today I am honored to re-acquaint the honorary friends of our warband, and you, too, will join me Witness, arise now, and look up at him, in your true respect!"

After Oreo finished speaking, all the blood angels around got up one after another. They all stood around and put their palms on their chests to salute Vito. The soldiers who hadn't taken off their helmets also took off their helmets one after another. They nodded to Vito.

Vito nodded to them with a wry smile, then glanced at Oreo, "You embarrass me, Captain." "This is the voice of honor, my lord, you deserve such courtesy, thank you, Ma Chapter Master Larkin, you have shown me the misunderstandings and fallacies of my ignorance."

Oreo nodded to Malakin who was on the side, and the latter also bowed his head silently in response, "So am I, Captain, in the past I only knew that Vito was a respected judge, but now, I get to know our friends, if I have the honor of being friends with the Supreme Marshal."

"You are my friends, Malakin, don't tease me here." Vito knocked on Malakin's power armor with a smile, and the latter also showed a sincere smile. All the high-ranking officers stood up, and Vito knew many of them, but among them, one stood out.

"Kazaris, good to see you here, it looks like you've returned to your battle group from Deathwatch." Vito smiled and stood up behind Oreo, Kaza wearing a power sword on his waist Reese nodded in salute, and the latter immediately nodded respectfully to Vito.

The power armor on his body that was once painted as the uniform black of Deathwatch has been changed back to the color of his own battle group. It is the opposite of the past in Deathwatch. Now he is covered in crimson armor, only his right shoulder It retains the Deathwatch's black armor and Chapter emblems.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time, when was the last time we met?" "Alvaster, my lord, we are fighting against the Tyranid swarm on it side by side, you and your four Deathwatch brothers and mine Together as a team, we made it through that hellish afternoon together."

Kazaris raised his head and stared at Vito in front of him. Although he looked very small among the Astartes, he was by no means negligible. Everyone was staring at the one who had left behind Honored and respected by the Chapter, he is not so anymore.

"It's an honor to see you again, my lord. When I met you last time, you were just a highly respected judge. Now, I am extremely honored to meet a god again." Kazaris said , Vito chuckled and nodded to him.

"I'm still me, Vito Constantine, you don't need to look at me differently because of this, Cazarel, just consider me your friend."

"My honour, my lord."

After finishing speaking, Cazaril looked around behind Vito, "Where are the other four brothers? Where are Ragnar, Lancelot, Bell and Olaf? Why haven't I seen them?"

"Ha, miss them?" Vito said with a joking smile, and the serious Kazarian in front of him also showed a smile.

"The last time I had a drinking match with Ragnar, I lost. He laughed at me severely. I still remember it deeply. I swear that I will challenge him again and beat him the next time I meet him."

Vito put his hands in his arms and smiled lowly, and he nodded slightly.

"That's for next time, they're not here, but I'll have enough Fenris vodka ready in advance for you to decide the winner next time we meet, but I have to remind you that it's hard to drink to win that It's not easy to get drunk with a group of wine."

"Haha, then I am happy to challenge the difficulties."

Cazarian said with a smile on his face, and hammered his chest with an iron fist. Ragnar taught him that movement. The relationship between the two has always been very good. Ragnar even influenced a lot of Cazarian. Although Vito can't say whether the influence is good or bad.

Vito snorted softly, then turned sideways to look behind Kazarian, and looked at another soldier who looked very low-key. He was actually not very low-key, after all, the power armor on him was quite conspicuous.

He was different from other warriors around him, he didn't take off his helmet, it was because of his oath, but the battle helmet on his head was very conspicuous, it was a skull faceplate, the silver skull was branded on the On the front, two pitch-black hoses are inserted on both sides, and blood-red flashes shine from the skull's eyes.

Vito looked at him and lowered his head, "Hi, Pastor Raphael, long time no see."

"Indeed, Master Vito, I am very glad to see you again in this dark moment. Your appearance is undoubtedly the most gratifying light in the darkness."

"You're still so charming, my friend." "I'll take that as a compliment, Lord Vito, but in any case, I'm glad to see you again, and I think so are my brothers."

Raphael said this among several company commanders, and they all nodded approvingly to Vito, who also nodded at Weiwei, and then turned sideways to introduce Lilith behind to everyone, who was also very cooperative. Previous step.

"This is my colleague and close friend, Inquisitor Lilith Malfoy. I hope you can trust her as much as you trust me."

"It's an honor to meet you, my lords."

Lilith put her hands behind her back and gracefully curtsied to several Astartes company commanders and chapter masters. She was elegant and calm, which made the young Cazario a little at a loss for a while. He seemed to want to be polite. He returned the gift, but he didn't know how to respond to such a noble greeting.

His brother, the war group priest Raphael, rescued him. The priest who wore a skull mask but spoke very kindly stepped forward. He walked past Cazarian and nodded to Lilith, "Very Nice to meet you, beautiful Inquisitor Lilith."

"Thank you for the compliment, my lord, I will remember it in my heart." Lilith nodded to Rafael with a smile after getting up, and the latter also smiled kindly, then turned her head to look at Vito.

"I have a question, Master Vito, is she really just your colleague and friend?"

Vito put his arms around his arms and smiled jokingly, "You know me, Raphael, right?" "Haha, let me pretend that I understand, but anyway, you are welcome."

Vito looked at him and smiled, then turned his head to look at Oreo, who also silently nodded to Lilith to show respect, and the latter also responded politely.

Vito glanced at Lilith behind him, then folded his arms and turned to the two Astartes beside him, "Okay, I think the pleasantries are over, it's time to talk about business."

"I think you are not just here to replenish fuel, I heard that with your arrival, there is an urgent message, what is that? Company Commander."

"Baal is in trouble."

He replied so briefly.
