Warhammer Inquisitor

Countless anti-aircraft shells shot into the sky from the hive capital. Chimera anti-aircraft guns, ground-based heavy artillery, and laser cannon arrays burned the sky. The entire hive was shrouded in this dark cloud of death, and the burning fire cloud lit up. Looking at the upper and outer buildings of the entire Hive City, the glass and pure outer walls of each large building reflected scarlet light.

In the oval hall of the Executive Court, flickering firelight was reflected on the dome and in the huge fan-shaped French windows, but the people here had no time to pay attention to those things.

Everyone here is busy, running almost at full load, countless mechanical instruments and communication equipment are constantly echoing each other, and the semi-curved hall full of people coming and going is full of people.

They came from all the important units, the Planetary Defense Force, the Astra Militarum, the Imperial Navy and the Adeptus Mechanicus, and they all crowded together, delivering messages in various voices or just plain cursing.

Those vulgar, barbaric vocabulary conveyed information about the battle situation, and the data staff quickly recorded it to project it on the realistic map of Victoria's global battle situation.

Every piece of help information, army dispatch and frontline situation are all clearly displayed. With the cursing one after another and changes, the war on the surface and on the orbit is intensifying.

At the other end of the hall is another group of people from the Ministry of Government Affairs, the Ministry of Justice and the staff of the Hive City Government gathered in another area. They are busy maintaining order in the entire Hive City, which is not easy in war.

The whole Hive is fighting inside and out, and the battle is not just outside the walls.

According to the results of Vito's Generator Operation, tens of billions of people gathered in the giant hive city, and their food, drink, lodging, and lodging were all problems. The fear of war and the rapid consumption of supplies brought serious security problems. This made the legal department very busy, while the government department was busy getting these people to eat and drink, and resettle them.

Vito looked at the main screen projected in the curved hall, which was a summary display of all the conditions of the entire planet. Countless marks and signals were constantly flashing on the three-dimensional surface of the entire planet, and there were densely packed light spots on the orbit.

Vito's eyes flicked between each piece of information, and those flood-like information data flashed across his eyes. In order to deal with these complicated data, several machine servants have burned their brains and been replaced, and it seems that this The situation continues.

A large amount of data was collected and entered, and the sound of gunfire rang out one after another outside the hall. The impact that shook the enemy was constantly acting on the glass of the outer wall of the hive headquarters. Those colorful stained glass rattled, as if they were about to shatter at any moment generally.

Vito looked at the data and lowered his head to look at the beautiful woman on the side. Olivia sat on the command chair belonging to the governor of the galaxy. The chair on this shrine-like platform was more like a throne, and she sat on it like a real queen.

Of course, it's not true. After all, there is only one emperor in the empire and that is the emperor, so Olivia doesn't wear a crown or robes. She wears a white lace shirt and a black corset. She sits on a golden throne. Looking at the global data, his eyes were full of anxiety, even fear.

Her fingers were clasped on the armrest of the throne, and her knuckles turned white with force. In fact, Vito thought she was brave enough. Ordinary women and even men might have started crying in fright, but she didn’t, she still maintained Maximum composure, an amazing composure.

Vito smiled and put his hand on her shoulder. Olivia raised his head and looked at Vito. He was wearing a judge's red battle robe, and there was an i subtitle symbolizing the Tribunal hanging on his chest. pendant.

Vito stood beside the queen like a king. He calmly commanded and coordinated the massive data of the entire planet. Every army and fleet was under his control, and he was doing quite well, at least so far. The city has not fallen so far in the three days since the war began.

Of course, the situation is not much better. Olivia can clearly see the fallen urban areas on the holographic map. The entire outer city of the Hive City has fallen, and the scarlet signs cover the core of the Hive City from all directions.

Several urban areas have completely disappeared, and the population in them has been swallowed up in an instant, as well as more than half of the entire Victoria galaxy. Olivia still remembers the fear she felt when she saw all these data for the first time. It is the fear that pierces the heart.

But she quickly calmed down. Every time Vito held her shoulders and stood beside her, there was an inexplicable sense of security and trust in her heart, as if she was the enemy of all the thousands of galaxies. None can compete with his general self-confidence.

Olivia took a deep breath, her protruding chest gradually lowered, "Have you seen anything worse before?" She asked softly, her voice would be instantly drowned out in the noisy hall, but Wei Thor still heard her words.

The judge smiled and looked at the global data map, "Believe me, my dear, if you have fought countless battles in this galaxy like me, you will get used to it, and this is not the worst situation. "

Vito said and pulled his hand, and flew over from a plane in the data map, on which were a series of data, Vito pressed the communication sign in the corner of the projection.

"Grand Commander, tell the Vostonia Sixth Regiment to withdraw to the inner city, and leave that position alone." "We can hold here! The Vostonia never retreat!" "If you still want to serve the Emperor and Mechanic God, withdraw immediately, I need the living to serve the Emperor and the Empire, not the dead."

Vito said sharply, the words were full of majesty and unquestionability, and there was a sigh after a short silence, "I will give the order to the judge." "Very well, Grand Master, live and serve as long as possible Emperor." "As His will wills."

Vito switched the data panel to the next frequency band, and its communication was naturally turned on, "Generalissimo, how is the situation of the Valhalla regiment?"

"Heavy losses, Inquisitor, four of my ten regiments have been severely damaged, and two establishments are gone. Although the Astartes repelled the Tyranid attack, I think we must abandon the outer wall position , relying on the city wall to reorganize the defense."

Vito nodded slightly, looking at the factual battle line map displayed on the data map, "I have ordered the Vostonia troops to retreat, and some of them should join you. Tyron will quickly reorganize the attack and reorganize the defense line as soon as possible. ’” “Yes, my lord.”

Vito pushed the data panel away, and then he turned on the communicator on his wrist and held it up in front of him, "Hey, hey, Cole, how is yours? Did the picnic go well?"

"If you're talking about Tyrann's cookout and having us for lunch, they're almost there." "How much longer can you last?"

"I don't know. Although the navy and the Astartes fleet temporarily blocked the swarms, their number is too large. We will definitely lose in the war of attrition. We can only say that the previous retreat and the timely destruction of some supplies made Thailand The Terns haven't added enough biomass, and if the Emperor is willing we can use it up before the Tyranids take over the planet."

"What's the situation on the ground?" "Most of the nests are gone. Fortunately, our defense at the core of the organization has not yet had a Tyranid airborne fungus come in."

"We have to find a way, Vito, or we will die sooner or later." "I know." "You have a way, right? I can hear your tone." "Are you so sure?" "We have been partners for more than ten years , I know when you are sure and when you are not sure but there is a way, a dangerous way."

Cole sighed, "Do you think your method is feasible?"

Vito was silent for a moment. He didn't answer but just watched the firelight outside the window in silence. After a while, he said, "It's feasible, but... very dangerous." "Do according to your own ideas, Vito, I trust your judgment. "

"I know, good luck my friend." "Good luck to you too."

Olivia watched Vito put his hand on his arm, and the judge looked down at the female governor with uneasy eyes in front of him. He smiled and touched her white face.

"Don't worry, my dear, this is not the first time I have fought this kind of battle. I have fought this kind of defense battle many times, and one of them was particularly tragic."

"Worse than this time? More serious?" "Yes, at that time... the situation was more difficult than it is now, but at that time a friend was helping me all the time, three to be precise, and we defended the city together to ensure everything It's not over."

As Vito said, he swiped the data board upwards, and Olivia watched the artillery fire outside the window. The ground-based turbolaser fired again, and the flashing red light illuminated half of the command hall.

The red light shone on Vito's face, but the judge's expression was as calm as ever. Olivia watched the red light outside the window gradually fall into a dim silence after the peak, "What did you do when you fought with Tyran last time?" Sample?"

"Last time? Ah, in Macragge it was the first time the Empire fought against Tyrann. I fought against the swarm with the Ultramarines. Captain Calgar and everyone stood firm at the two poles. That was even more Tragic and even more desperate."

"A few times I came down, I thought the position was about to fall, especially when Calgar and the tyrant were singled out, and after being seriously injured and sent to the warship in orbit, all the command fell on my shoulders. At that time, there was no news from the company commander. Only me, Mikael and Sicarius, the two company commanders, are left to command the Arctic defense."

"At that time, as now, the heavy ground-based laser cannons kept firing, and the Tyranid tsunami hit our positions. It was a desperate war, at least it seemed so at the time."

"But you all survived, and you still need the company commander." "Yes, we all survived, and you still need Sicarius, ah, since he is not dead, the Emperor."

Olivia tilted her head in surprise, and looked at Vito in confusion, "You seem to be very sorry, aren't you happy that the second company commander survived?"

Vito smiled wryly, "Honey, if you stay with Sicarius for a few days, you'll also want to shoot him in the head so that idiot will stop talking."'

"But in the end, yes, we won, Macragge survived, and after a series of heroic sacrifices and decisive battles, we won, so we won't die here today, my dear."

She smiled and pressed Olivia's shoulder, "The Emperor will not let me die, many people are, so we will win."

Olivia also smiled and leaned her head on Vito's waist. The latter gently held the female governor's head with her hands. The world of her and Vito was left.

"How many years have you lived in the war?"

Vito let out a long sigh, and many, many things flashed across his eyes, "To be honest, I forgot, I even forgot how old I am?" "How could that be?" "My dear, if you have lived like me After a few centuries, maybe even longer, time is not so important, you see, when your life lasts more than a hundred years, it starts to become blurred."

Olivia closed her eyes and smiled, a real smile finally appeared on her face, "So I slept with a hundred-year-old man?"

Vito also laughed, he chuckled, "Old? I'm still quite young, at least I'm not too old for me, no matter how time goes by, my soul and optimistic personality are always young."

"Of course." Olivia said with a smile. Vito looked at a new data panel that appeared in front of him. Gathered in the inner wall of the hive capital, waiting for the final salvation or destruction here.

There is a string of newly arrived crowd marks on it, and it seems to be moving very slowly, and what is so dead is that they seem to be mixed with some troops of the Planetary Defense Force. If Vito remembers correctly, he gave this team The order issued by the troops was to hold their ground.

Well, it's not a big surprise, morale is broken, people's hearts are broken or something.

Vito moved the data plane away with a playful laugh, and he patted Olivia on the head, whose charming eyes looked at Vito who met hers.

"My dear Governor, it's time to cheer them up." "Pick up? You mean." "No, I'm not going to cheer them up with a bolter. I'm not one of my colleagues."

Vito took Olivia's hand, and the latter stood up from the throne and took his arm. Vito smiled and looked at the flying gunfire outside the window.

"Let's go for a walk." "Your date really is where and when." "Unique as always, yes."

Vito smiled and walked to the back door of the headquarters with Olivia, while the explosion outside the window was still flashing in the clouds. Yes, this is not a good time.

for anything.
