Warhammer Inquisitor

The red light of the floating car came to a stop with the screeching sound of a sudden brake, and the faint red light at the end of it was filled with the night fog. After the door was pushed out and slid up, the silver boots stepped on the red In the light, the black trousers swayed and flashed in the night wind.

Vito got out of the car. He straightened his windbreaker and looked at the tall building in front of him. It soared into the sky, and its pitch-black body went straight into the sky like a tower.

Dim lights flicker in a very distant place, as if on the other side of the sea of ​​clouds, a huge whale is swimming in it, or a ship sailing on the dark sea, looking at the hazy lighthouse light in the dark night, looking for the shore direction.

"Master." Eva stood up from the driver's seat, her jackknife and nerve poison pistol swung under her armpits, Vito turned around and raised his hand to signal her, the latter stopped, and the two exchanged After staring for a while, she nodded, and sat on the roof of the floating car at the back, looking up at the sea of ​​clouds above, with lights flickering in its depths.

Vito also glanced there, smiled and adjusted his clothes, then walked up the stairs, and walked in from the unexpectedly small door of the magnificent building compared to its body.

Vito walked through the scaffolding. There are many scaffoldings in the hall here, paint buckets are placed on them, and many plaster sculptures are packed in boxes and placed around them. More statues and murals are still on the walls. Above, high up, the top of the scaffolding stands silently.

There was a dead silence in the wide hall. At night, the hazy lights of the city came in from outside the door, reflecting a dim golden light on the giant sky eagle on the ground. Vito walked over from the sky eagle's wings, along the Its winged silhouette moved forward towards the elevator at the end of the hall.

In front of the elevator, Vito clicked the button on the side, and the elevator door opened after a jingle. He walked in, turned around and pressed the button inside, the elevator gate closed, and then went up.

Vito stood in the elevator, music was echoing from the speakers above his head, classical music reverberated in the box, long and elegant, it was the music he would like, deep and dark, "Coraz would probably like it too , The two of them are really consistent in some tastes, unexpectedly."

The floor indicators of the elevator lighted up one by one as the pointer rotated, and finally the pointer stopped on the number on the top floor, the largest number 50. After a jingle, the elevator door opened, and warm lights came from between the cracks in the door. The light was emitted, and as the door opened wider and wider, the coverage area became larger and larger.

Vito came out with his hands behind his back, his footsteps were walking in the light, the orange light pulled two shadows that kept moving on his legs, and with his footsteps, the jingle sound also mixed with the surrounding wind.

The top floor of this building is also being maintained, the surrounding antique windows have been removed one by one, and the doors on the marble balcony have also been removed, so the cold wind from high altitudes poured in directly, roaring wantonly in the room, and there were raindrops It hit the ground near the window, and with a flash of lightning across the sky, a person was photocopied on the ground.

It was the shadow of a Gundam, a pair of small wings were printed on the thing on the shoulders in the lightning, his face and the jet-black hair were also illuminated by the lightning, but he was unmoved and remained the same. Sitting on the edge of the ground, leaning against the edge of the cliff, there are rolling clouds below.

"You still like such a high place, can you fly?" Vito walked behind him and asked, he put his hands in his pockets to fix the coat on his body so that the flying angle was smaller, but it It was still flying wantonly in the strong wind, pulling a black shadow behind him.

Also flying is the hair of the person sitting on the ground, his hair is darker than this night, his deep eyes overlook the city below, thousands of lights are imprinted on his eyes, flickering dimly and deeply, " I like high places, you can see a lot here, when you are on the ground, the night will deceive your eyes, but when you are higher than it, you can deceive it."

"Doesn't this place make you homesick too? The place you grew up in is always dark, a terrible place.", "Bad? This word can be used as a compliment there.", "Then you suggest that I should How would you describe it?", "There is no word, at least not in human language, I guess, in other languages, but you can look at me, I am the word that best describes that place."

Vito glanced at him, shrugged his shoulders with his hands in his hands, and took a step forward to stand on the edge of the cliff, "You can see a lot of things here, Hera Fortress, Starport, and the entire city, as well as the past, go up It was here the last time I saw you in Macragge."

That's why Vito found him so quickly, he must be here, this guy is not a person who likes strangers, he prefers to stay in those familiar places, familiar darkness, familiar corners, familiar places, such as here.

"Yeah, last time we met here, you tried to kill me." He smiled and put his clawed hand on the ground. Vito shrugged and stood beside him facing the rainy night, "You You also want to kill me, and you almost succeeded, but you are still a little bit closer."

Vito gestured with his hand, he laughed, his voice was deep and deep, "It's a pity, you too, and Ryan was there at the time, you should let him kill me right then."

"Sanguinius wants us to bring you back instead of killing you. I am an obedient person." "Obedient?" There was a hint of mockery in Coz's words, and Vito shrugged with a smile, "Okay Well, it depends, but I listened, so you survived, and Ryan listened, which is rare, he usually only listens to that guy."

"He is one of the most obedient sons among us, unlike the others. When he created us, he should be quite disappointed, and it ended up like that."

Curz shrugged, Vito smiled, and turned his head to look at the lightning flashing in the depths of the rainstorm, "Every one of you is his masterpiece, the masterpiece he is most proud of, although the word masterpiece is not good .”

"But it's also the most suitable, isn't it? He gave each of us a talent. People always say that we have inherited his side, and some brothers have inherited his bright and great side, as well as kindness and kindness. Someone will inherit the darkness." Curz smiled wryly, dragging his chin.

"Sometimes I also wonder if it's because he forgot to peel off some impurities." Curz smiled wryly and rubbed his head, Vito watched him silent for a moment, "Can you still see those prophecies?", "Yeah, those prophecies that I don't know what they mean, countless fragments, but they are all destruction, darkness."

"I really didn't inherit any good things from him, right?" Curz raised his head with a self-deprecating smile, looked at him, Vito shook his head, reached out and touched his head, "He, she created I didn’t think too much about you at the beginning, he doesn’t know you, and you don’t necessarily know yourself.”

"Then do you understand?" Koz said with a wry smile, while Vito shrugged his shoulders with a smile, "I'm pretty accurate at seeing people, otherwise I wouldn't be able to live so long, and he also believes that you are not what you look like, St. Gilles, as you say, the night deceives the eye, and you can only see through it if you stand high enough."

Vito turned his head to look at the night, the torrential rain roared in the air, and one piece after another flew down, "What did you see?"

Coz looked over and frowned slightly, "Deceit, unwillingness, suspicion and conspiracy are brewing, like seeds taking root in the ground.", "Yes, Coz, you know that you and Sanguiller What is the biggest difference between Si?", "He is warm and reassuring, while I keep people at a respectful distance, just like the monster in the dark night?"

"It's you who know how to deal with the monsters of the night." Vito touched his head. There was a huge difference in height and size between the two. Vito's hand was almost straight to touch, but he touched it. He stroked a trapped beast in the arena, removed its chains, untied it, and dropped the iron cage, "If you want to fight darkness, you must first become darkness. Ryan is a knight, and so are you, a dark knight. "

"But you knight, you are not meant to be sung by poetry. Telling your story will scare the children to tears." Vito laughed jokingly, and Curz also laughed, "You are saying good things Why? Why do I feel that you are scolding me. "

"It's just stating the facts. You are a terrible person, but it is precisely because of this that you are the dark knight. What you inherit from him is not only darkness, but also his determination."

Vito smiled and said, he lifted his windbreaker, revealing the explosive arrows and Phoenix sword under it, "You are the arbiter, and the arbiter doesn't appear because you are liked, but to cut off all unrealistic fantasies. , snuff out the flames of hopeless hope."

"Okay, enough talking, you've stayed here long enough, get up, come with me, your days of water skiing should be over." After saying that, Vito turned and walked towards the direction of the elevator, Curz looked Looking at his back, he turned his head and looked down at the vast city below. The lights were flickering below the sea of ​​clouds, and the darkness swallowed everything above the clouds, except here.

The Fortress of Hera, the home of the Ultramarines and Guilliman are all below, they are below the darkness, and above the tower, Curze stood up slowly, his long hair fluttering like a cloak behind him.

"Are you okay? Get out of here quickly, I'm freezing to death here." Vito's voice sounded from behind, Curz turned and walked over with a smile, walking into the darkness, the only sound coming from the elevator in the light.

"Master, it seems that you brought your friends back." Eva said while sitting on the roof of the car and looking at the entrance of the tower. Vito walked down from there with a smile, spread his arms, and then shook off the windbreaker. The rain on the ground, the tall black shadow behind him followed him, and the rain splashed on the bat on his chest.

Lightning flashed through the air, illuminating the black bat in the night. Eva frowned slightly at him, but before he could say anything, Vito walked up and opened the car door. He sat in the passenger seat and took a picture. Pat Eva's thigh, "Let's go, it's going to rain, get in the car, our work has just begun."

Eva nodded, looked at him and then nodded slightly, then closed the mask, she slid into the car and started the engine, the red light flashed a few times, and the floating car rose slowly, the steering wheel The red light on the car dimly illuminates Vito, Eva, and the person who climbed up behind them and sat on the roof.

The floating car sped away, throwing out the red tail lights and escaping into the rainy night. The lights of Hera Fortress in the distance were still shining like a lighthouse in the darkness.

The floating car was driving on the road, the heavy rain rolled from the sky, and the lightning slid across the sky to illuminate its body, and also illuminated the face of Guilliman standing on the balcony looking at the city. A majestic starport above ground.
