Warhammer Inquisitor
Chapter 534 The Rise of the Lion King: Assassination by Assassination
The Lane Palace within the high walls of the palace is full of people, the sun shines in from the towering stained glass windows, and shines on the ornately decorated clothes, so that the metal pieces, gold ribbons, and jewel ornaments are all under the sun Glittering, people in these gorgeous costumes greeted each other and waited in this hall.
The cheers of the crowd are still heard outside the window, the festive parade is still going on, the flags are flying on the wide street, colorful fireworks are falling from the sky, people are standing in front of the window, and the floor-to-ceiling windows between two huge lion heads Finally, overlooking the parade below, they raised their glasses and clinked glasses and chatted with each other.
Soon, with the sound of a heavy halberd hitting the ground, the chattering and noisy hall fell silent instantly, and everyone turned their heads to look at the main hall's gate, where two majestic lions sitting cross-legged on the ground The door between them was knocked open with a sigh, and the imperial guards with explosive bombs and halberds pushed the door in.
The emperor's golden armored guards strode into the hall, like a golden ocean, and behind them, in the corridor outside the hall, there were also emperor's golden armored guards standing guard on both sides of the avenue, Guard the entrance and exit leading here.
They blocked all the accompanying officials at the end of the far corridor. The senior officials in the hall saw a forbidden soldier walking out of the guards. He was wearing a gold and red battle robe, and the weapon he was wearing was not a halberd, but It is a sharp sword with a screaming eagle at the end.
This allows people to recognize his identity at a glance, the Holy Envoy, the envoy of the imperial guard who summoned the emperor's order from the imperial army, and the personal guard envoy who happened on his behalf. He stepped into the hall, stood on the high platform and raised his head to the people below.
"The Regent chosen by the Emperor, Robert Guilliman and the King of Angels, San Guinness and the great Supreme Marshal of the Empire, Vito Constantine, everyone, kneel."
After he finished speaking, all the senior officials overlooking the ground knelt on the ground, and then moved to one side, with their chests raised high, and the guards standing with spears on both sides stared at the three people who came out of it.
Vito glanced at the Oracle, and he nodded respectfully to himself, but he didn't have such respect for Guilliman. The imperial army would only respect the emperor himself, and those they chose to respect. so it is.
Although Guilliman is the Regent of the Empire, he only has jurisdiction over mortals and Astartes. The Imperial Army will not obey him, they will only obey the Emperor and the commander he chooses. In the past, Vito would Commanding the Imperial Army together with the commander of the Imperial Army, Valdo, and formed many companies of the Imperial Army. For many of the Imperial Army, Vito can almost be called the father of the Imperial Army. He is another commander. , governing all the golden armored guards.
Vito smiled at him, and followed Guilliman to the steps in front of the senior officials, where the three of them stood side by side, their heads bowed.
"Haha, please look up, friends, I am the regent, not the emperor." Guilliman smiled and raised his hand to signal. In his kind words, the officials looked at each other and stood up. Looking at Guilliman on the stage, a tall lady with a tall black ponytail came up from the crowd.
"Mrs. Valcia, it's a pleasure to meet you here, my dear Speaker of the Empire." "I'm also very honored, my lord, and you, my lord Angel, and of course, my lord marshal." "Don't worry, Speaker My lord, I know that I am not as conspicuous as them, after all I am not four or five meters tall."
Vito's words caused a short burst of laughter, which eased the atmosphere of the interview a lot. Guilliman also smiled in approval, and Sanguinius patted him on the shoulder and laughed, which was enough to make the audience Overshadowed by any lady.
"This is a day worth celebrating and remembering. I believe that the historians of the empire will definitely write down this day, and Ms. Sumani will leave a strong mark."
"Yes, Ms. Sumani, our Director of History." Guilliman said with a wry smile. Vito raised his eyebrows, keenly aware of Guilliman's strange eyes, especially when he said the name himself.
Guilliman also noticed Vito's mocking smile, cleared his throat, and turned to the senior officials, "Are there any people who didn't come?"
"Yes, my lord, I am very sorry, there are indeed some people who did not come. I must have issued a summons to them, but I will contact them as soon as possible."
"No, you don't need it." Vito interjected with a smile. The Speaker of the Valcia Empire looked over with a surprised expression, but soon felt a chill all over her body. She turned her head to look in the direction of the source of the cold, Where did she meet Eva, Grand Mentor of the Court of Assassins.
She appeared there without a sound. No one noticed how she came before. Even the guards clenched their weapons tightly, showing vigilant and displeased expressions, as if they were provoking them. But because of the presence of the Supreme Marshal, none of the imperial guards specifically expressed their dissatisfaction.
The high-ranking officials of the empire watched Eva step back subconsciously. It was an instinctive fear. No one would like or be willing to be in the same room with an assassin, especially their great mentor.
She was standing aside wearing the iconic skull mask, with two pocket knives hanging behind her waist, with traces of blood still sticking to the blades. With her arrival, it seemed like winter was coming.
Behind her, Celestine descended from the sky, she fell from the high open glass skylight, the armor on her chest was still stained with blood, she flapped her wings and landed beside Eva, and slapped Vito with a smile. Hello.
"What's going on here? What happened?" Guilliman sensed it. It was obvious that he was neither stupid nor bad at observing. "Where are those people?"
"They're retired, they won't be returning to their posts, and the problems they caused will be solved." "Vito, what have you done behind my back." "Solve the problem , the one you told me, I thought, maybe it would be quicker to do it my way, though I didn't know she was involved."
"His Majesty the Emperor asked me to go. He felt that you would need help." Celestine said without waiting for them to ask herself, and this is equivalent to endorsing everything that has happened. From, the Emperor The emperor's own endorsement.
The high-ranking officials of the empire looked at each other and started talking in low voices. Sanguinius frowned slightly and looked at Guilliman. She knew that they hadn't had a good chat with the Emperor before.
Guilliman looked down at Vito, the two looked at each other, suddenly there seemed to be a smell of gunpowder, "Vito, if you want to execute my officials, I hope you can tell me first and discuss it, not Cut first and play later."
"There are some things that we don't have time to ask for instructions, so we can only deal with them first." "Then I hope that such things will be as rare as possible." "I hope so too."
The two looked at each other, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became quiet. None of the imperial councilors or senior officials dared to intervene, and they all kept silent in the tense atmosphere. As the regent, he would not allow his authority to be questioned or even offended, even if he was the same.
If this is the case, then all order will collapse, and his other brothers will continue to do so after they return, then he will not be able to fulfill his duties as the regent.
"I hope there will be no next time, Vito, remember." Guilliman said coldly, staring at Vito in front of him as well, who looked at him silently, and the guards around Looking at each other, they were thinking, if there was a conflict between the Regent and the Supreme Marshal, which side should the Guards stand on.
But in the end none of that happened, Vito watched him silent for a moment, then raised his head and nodded, "I will remember, now, talk to your officials, and I will talk to mine too .”
After Vito finished speaking, he turned around and walked down the steps. The high-ranking officials in front stepped aside one after another. Guilliman watched Vito pass by and took a deep breath. A smile appeared on his face in an instant. "Speaker, I have seen some strange faces, can you introduce them to me?"
"Ah, of course my lord, this is the new secretary of the Ministry of Government Affairs"
Celestine folded her arms, and watched with a smile as the speaker brought a person in front of Guilliman, and the latter smiled and talked with them, making the newcomers tremble with trepidation, and the atmosphere suddenly changed back, as if the brief moment just now Conflict does not exist the same.
"It seems that he doesn't like your actions very much. Will this affect the actions of you, the assassins, and the judges in the future? I heard that he plans to limit the arbitrary power of the Assassins and the Tribunal."
"You are not a Tzeentch, so don't say such incendiary words. Also, wash off the blood on your body, the person you cut will drink, Eva." After Vito said, in Serbia Lustin smelled the smell on his body, and when he showed a disgusted expression, he looked at the master assassin and gestured.
The latter silently handed him a letter. The latter took the letter, glanced at the signature on it, and opened the envelope, "Have you dealt with it?"
"The baptism of fire, as you requested, master." "Anyone else?" "Not one left." "Very well, continue to trace their relationship network and dig out the rest, this time hide , you know why." "Understood, Master."
Vito opened the letter and took it out. The flame shone on the surface of the envelope. It was the flame that Celestine used to wash away the dry blood on her body. Her armor was stained with fire, and she leaned towards Vito from the side. Please, look at the letter.
Vito didn't dodge, he knew that Celestine's fire would only ignite those things she wanted to ignite, so he quickly scanned the contents of the letter from the fire light on the little angel.
"What's on the letter?" Celestine asked without seeing it clearly. Seeing that Vito closed the letter and smiled, he put it in his arms. Only he saw the contents on it.
"We have to go far, to the Far East, Damocles Bay."
