Warhammer Inquisitor

The sun shone on the majestic statue. On his towering body, his face was illuminated by the sun with unevenness. The already magnificent armor sculpture on his body also looked more stalwart, tall and immortal under the light. On the value behind his head, a muzzle sticks out.

The Stormtrooper with a sniper rifle sat cross-legged in the gap beside the statue. He wore a helmeted head and observed the scenery outside the scope through the lens on the surface of the helmet.

Bustling streets, bustling shops are all over the pedestrian streets, and the entire main road below is overcrowded. A large number of citizens celebrating festivals are walking on the streets. Many flags and banners are surging with the crowds. The crowd walks along the streets , moving slowly towards the gate of the palace not far away.

The sky is clear for thousands of miles, there is not a single cloud, and there is no smog caused by any factory lingering in the air. Some people say that it is the god of the king of angels who descended on Terra and dispelled all the dark clouds. There are also rumors that it is the emperor In order to express his blessing to his resurrected heir, the emperor lowered his divine power.

But Stormtrooper observers know that it is the Mechanicus ships from space. In order to celebrate this unusually strong Emperor’s Ascension Festival, the Terra government specially transferred it from Mars, carrying advanced and huge enough to require The weather control device can only be transported by warships to ensure the best weather and clear skies on the day of the festival.

They did it. The sky was clear and cloudless, and the sunshine that hadn’t been seen for many years made a large number of citizens enthusiastically take to the streets to participate in the parade and celebration, and finally went to the Triumph Square outside the palace to participate in the gathering of thousands of people and listen to the truth. The words of the dead, and the pilgrimage.

And this also makes the security work extremely cumbersome and complicated. Around the palace, there are observation posts, snipers and mobile duty teams arranged everywhere, and the sky is full of airships and warning skulls. They are safe. Eyeliner, just like his eyes.

The Stormtrooper observed the street below and the surrounding high-rise buildings through the scope. Another group of security snipers on the high-rise buildings below waved to him.

"This is Foxhunting No. 1, everything around is normal, no other armed personnel appear, over." "Got it, continue to observe." "Understood."

The Stormtrooper was talking, but he was obviously incompetent, and his observation skills were not deep enough, because behind him, a sniper with a gun on his back climbed onto the shelf behind the statue. Wearing a mask that is completely connected to the skin-like tactical suit.

The Vindicare Assassin glanced at the Stormtrooper from a height, turned around quietly, bent down and quickly ran to the edge of the statue with the precision sniper rifle on his back, and she stopped at the gap between the battle armor and the shoulder , took off the sniper rifle on his back, screwed on the rear end of the silencer and put it in his hand.

She sat cross-legged on the shelf, the muzzle of the sniper rifle was just on the edge of the shadow behind the statue, her eyes aimed at a car below, and locked on an imperial official walking down the stairs, he and his colleagues Chatting and smiling, he didn't even notice that he had been targeted.

"Ready." The female Vindicare assassin whispered, the muzzle of the gun did not shake at all because of her words. Suddenly, a firework rose in the air outside, and it exploded in the air. The officials below raised their heads and looked at the The sky, on the statue, but the Stormtrooper, who had no idea what was about to happen, also looked up at the fireworks.

The ribbons flew with the explosion, and one of the petals fluttered with the wind. It fell from the air and slid down on the statue's face. The stormtroopers watched it fall into the crowd, Pairs of slow-moving footsteps flew forward.

The colored ribbon fluttered along the ground, and it quickly rose up with a gust of wind. It turned in the air, twisted and moved along the high wall and flew up to the glass roof of the apartment. On the surface of the glass, it continued to move forward, as if, Like a surfer surfing in the sea.

The sun shone on the glass, reflecting the dazzling light. Under the light, the ribbons slid down from the edge of the roof, fluttered and held on the marble stone pillars, and then flew outwards again, spinning in the background. Countless flying flags fell on the ground. It landed on one shoulder, and it stopped firmly.

But soon, one hand lifted the ribbon and dropped it, Vito patted it down, leaned back in the chair and straightened his collar, then crossed his legs and sat on the chair.

He looked around at the visiting chairs in an arc. Many imperial dignitaries and officials were sitting here, and their chairs had nameplates engraved on them, showing who should be sitting in each position.

This also allows the empty chairs to be intuitively seen who was not present. Vito looked at the empty chairs and the familiar names on them, and a list appeared in his mind, and in the There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Vito followed the vision of people sitting on the rostrum around him. He looked at Guilliman, who was speaking on the podium in front of him. He stood in the sun, and as always, he was fighting for the crowd below, and Passionate speech.

His words were very contagious, and Vito had to admit it. Cheers and shouts continued to be heard outside. Thousands of flags fluttered indistinctly under the dazzling sun, accompanied by ribbons flying all over the sky, making the whole festive atmosphere Push to the climax.

With Sanguinius beside him, the wings of the king of angels are slowly flapping, and the sun is shining from between the feathers, like a jewel releasing brilliance. Her presence alone is enough to make the whole festival more exciting. Enthusiastic, cheers continued to come, the crowd chanted long live the regent, long live the emperor and long live the king of angels.

Conrad isn't here, of course, no surprise there, is it? How do you think he would participate in this kind of festival? Maybe, now he was staying in some not so bright place, quietly watching the assembly below.

Vito sits under a tall pennant, on both sides of the double-headed eagle flag, magnificent statues stand in the sun, their heads raised like silent sentinels, guarding the gate of the palace, and under it Speech by the Regent.

"I have said enough, but today, I am not here alone. Now, let you, our Marshal, make a speech."

As Guilliman turned sideways, he raised his hand to signal Vito, who watched him leaning on the back of the chair, and Eva's voice came from the earphones hanging by his ears at the same time.

"The Assassin team is ready to move."

After hearing this, Vito stood up, patted his clothes, and after tidying up, he walked to the rostrum under the shining sun. At the same time, the day of judgment began, and he smiled at Sanguinius He nodded and stood on the rostrum with the latter's smile.

Vito stepped onto the rostrum. In front of him, the entire square was full of crowds. Hundreds of thousands of people cheered for Vito on the square in front of the palace. The flying flags danced back and forth in the sun. , Around the tall monument among the crowds, some people climbed onto the sculptures and waved flags high above.

From above his head, several lightning fighter planes pulling colorful smoke whistled past, their roar passed over the square, the crowd looked back at the flying fighter planes, they quickly pulled up behind the square, and pulled up in the air. The emblem of the Imperial Skyhawk was displayed in honor of Vitor, the Supreme Leader of the Astra Militarum.

The cheers of the crowd reached a climax. Vito smiled as he watched the colorful smoke, and beside his ears, there was also the sound of a gunshot from the earphones, an extremely precise sniper gunshot.

No one at the scene knew that almost at the same time, dozens of high-ranking officials of the empire died at the same time. The deputy minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs was beaten into a sieve in the car. While having dinner with his family at home, he was shot dead by his cousin who cooperated with the trial court, along with his wife and children.

During the meeting, the admiral and his henchmen were collectively shot by the adjutant disguised and replaced by the Callidus assassin, while the chief judge of the Ministry of Justice was hung on a high wall with a noose around his neck, and the navigator's astrological language The master master and the tutor of the Star Language Institute were killed by the same Cusalis assassin, and the foundry chief of the Mechanicus Cult stationed in Terra suddenly overloaded his head program and his brain exploded to death.

And the source of all coups, the executive chairman of the Ministry of Government Affairs, was personally executed by the leader of the assassins, Master Eva. After finding the letter that Vito wanted, he was buried in the sea of ​​fire with the whole family in his mansion, just as she got. Command, Baptism of Fire.

And before dawn, all the strongholds of the cultists working with the rebels had been bloodbathed by the Astartes squad, and the Everson assassins also participated in the operation, staining the dawn, and now the sunlight, with blood.

But no one knows all this, the only thing people can see on his face is a smile, under the sun, but with a chilling smile, "This is a dark age, an age of deceit, you have heard too much The promise of the future, the promise of a prosperous life, the promise of peace, is what Guilliman said just now true? I can’t say, for the past ten thousand years, you have seen and heard too many high-sounding Too many lies from those in power."

"However, the empire did not collapse because of those lies. Those vicious rumors did not cause human beings to be crushed. When I stood here 10,000 years ago, everything was about to collapse, but 10,000 years later, I once again standing here looking at you, loyal people

I am not a philosopher, let alone a person as knowledgeable as Guilliman. In fact, I am not much smarter than you. Relying on powerful divine power, if so, then I wouldn’t be standing here.”

"Some people chose to betray, because they believed that power, wealth and power represented everything, they faithfully believed in this, and finally made a choice, but they were wrong, the real power of human beings does not come from where, instead, trust

This is a very valuable quality. During the ten thousand years, in this long dark night, human character will be worn away, and greed, selfishness and arrogance will devour many people. "

He was standing on the rostrum, overlooking the crowd, when he heard the sound of a broken door coming from the headset, followed by the sound of a bolter, and finally a simple summary reply.

"Torpedoes are found, all targets are destroyed."

"But you, even in the face of countless deceptions and the demonic galaxy, you all believed in the people around you. In the face of temptations, promises and commitments, you chose to believe. Believe in what you have always believed in. Believe You, your friends, your hands, that's where the strength comes from."

The sniper rifle rang out, and the officer walking down the stairs was shot in the head. The colleagues behind him panicked, but they were shot through their heads one by one and fell to the ground, with blood flowing down the stairs.

"Those who chose to betray, they chose the wrong way, greedy, let them take the reflection in the pool as the sun in the sky, and they will pay the price for it, but you, those who are ridiculed by the betrayers, are at the end Stand here."

"I don't want to talk too much, and I'm not good at speeches, but you guys made me understand a little bit, and I hope you can understand that too."

While he was speaking, Eisenstein walked up to the last cultist. He was lying on the ground, looking at the tall Astartes in horror. He raised the battle ax in his hand and aimed at the cultist on the ground. Cultists, amidst his screams.

Vito smiled and put his palms on the table, "Trust will always be rewarded, and betrayal has never been a good choice, because the new era will abandon those people, and now, for you, welcome to this A new era, long live the human empire."
