Warhammer: Start with a dog

"What's this?"

The lion glared at the gold product that was trampled under the claws of the black and white dog. It looked like a small miniature model of the blood-stained spear on the left side of the table.

Perturabo looked away, licking his nose, and the lion took the opportunity to grab his guilty brother's tail - it was small in his palm but felt as good as he had ever felt.

"Oh? Avoiding the question is not the answer. Let me ask you what is this?" At this moment, the lion seemed to show a little bit of his appearance as the proud eldest brother Leon El'Jonson, the leader of the First Army ten thousand years ago. , "Perturabo, what is this?"

"This is, uh, a memorial, now in my care. Although what we have just experienced is almost to shove all the answers in your face, but if you can't see them, then it proves that it is not yet At this time, the wise choice is not to continue to ask, just as I would not use a loudspeaker to announce your 'collection' on the Monolith and the Indomitable Truth. Besides," the Lord of Steel warned the Lion, "you are really If you can't resist grabbing my tail, forget about it. Don't touch other parts of my body, otherwise I will beat you all over the floor and find your teeth, you damn fat man who likes to take offense."

"Oh?" the lion sneered, but he did comply with the request and changed the topic, "Perturabo, this kind of threat is only effective when you have evidence to prove it and make you believe you. What are you going to do now? Prove that it's me? - Without me here to endorse you, any of my descendants will shoot you first the moment they see you. After all, how can you prove a four-legged stuffed creature that can speak human language? They can’t prove that they are human, and they have definitely destroyed enough aliens and aliens.”

Leon's eyes as green as green leaves were full of sarcasm and "I need a better answer" and "Do you think I'm a bad guy?", but there was no suspicion - any thinking creature would have seen Pei. After Turabo showed him what he had seen, there was no doubt about his underlying motives. This was why Leon now felt relatively at ease and relaxed around his sheepdog brother.

But if you think about Russ and his two wolves carefully... they seem to be two female wolves? ...Stop it! Leon Al'Jonson! You should learn more about controlling yourself, meditating, and focusing as your heir Zabriel suggested, rather than learning about this man who turned from steel to plush in intermittent conversations with Perturabo. My brother has this bad habit of having his thoughts wandering around.

"Haha, that's right, so the place we are going to next is obviously an alien building, right? And your descendants who are good at destroying aliens are obviously now living in it and protecting it as their home."

The lion was silent for a while, "That's true." He finally admitted, "But there are some things we must do, and we must take the initiative and be quick. Misunderstandings will not be solved by themselves because they are not explained, and the purpose is also You can’t rely on destiny to achieve it on its own.”

"That's why I think you are pretty good now, Leon." The dog nodded and said, "Although you also think that the reality our unreliable old man with a skeleton left us is a hopeless mess. It’s a hellish place, but you are still willing to stand up and lead mankind, your stance is still firm, and your power of action is as strong as ever.”

"A truly amazing breakthrough in verbal interpretation. My brother, did I just receive a compliment from Perturabo, Lord of the Fourth Legion? I should have recorded it."

"You don't have a chance, because I won't say these words a second time." The black and white dog said grimly, jumping on his elder brother's shoulder, sitting on one of his shoulders, and hanging his tail.

"Do you have to let me meet my heirs in this way?"

"If your descendants see that you have become a tolerant and generous person who can sit on your shoulders, then they will surely know that when you say, 'I will not hold you accountable, you can also choose not to follow me. As long as you It will be more convincing when we don’t start or continue to harm human beings.”

"...It sounds like something I would say but it doesn't sound like it at the same time, but I'll add it to my remarks in a moment."

"That's good. Now let's go meet your heirs, Leon. Remember to bring Kai, who has just recovered."

"Why do you want to take him with you? I originally planned that since you are going, maybe just take Rohawk and my mortal guards with you."

"You will need Kai, Leon. Just like in the original plan of..., Fulgrim also has his own job that he should do."

"Explicit instructions, Perturabo, if you had ever..."

"There are no ifs, Leon. Don't try to win victory from fate, but let it be you who makes destiny win."

——————

As Birds contacted the destination of their trip, the Echo Station floating on the blurry edge of a certain nebula, its commander finally agreed to let Leon take the shuttle after an extremely disloyal conversation. The plane landed. Obviously, although they are both lost Dark Angels, their relationship with each other is not completely cooperative. It seems that the former Knight Commander even robbed this place to make a living.

There is no doubt that when the seven Dark Angels who actually had a secret expectation (it must be pointed out that they still subconsciously formed a formation for inspection in front of the tarmac) saw that they were not wearing armor, but instead entrenched on their shoulders. After the lion holding a shepherd dog, four of them roared, three raised their weapons, and the leader of the knight, Guain, had a look of extreme disappointment on his face. Flushed red with anger at being deceived.

"Byrds! That damn bug dared to deceive me again!" Guan, who claimed to have been promoted to Knight Commander by Lord Luther in Caliban, had veins popping out on his forehead. His eyes sternly glanced at the Lion and his two Ass. The Stat guards, as well as the mortals behind him - the Lion Guard refused to leave their escort target again after the last incident, and Leon also believed that he should bear a certain responsibility for these mortals.

"Knight Commander Birds did not deceive you," the lion took a step forward, "I am happy to see each of you here, my children."

The human tone contained in this sentence was so sincere, gratifying and kind that the Dark Angels with broken armor on the opposite side began to become a little restless.

As Perturabo told Leon, Kai's sudden speech was very powerful in persuading his former companions to put aside their doubts and entanglements and return to the command of the Lion. The apothecary brothers did not take off their helmets for Lohawk. 's questions were well answered, as for the sheepdogs themselves...

"I have told my brothers what I have felt and reassured them, Your Highness." Among the seven people at Echo Outpost, the ancient tech sergeant was wearing a rust-red power suit with a mechanical arm. Ectoril of A explained this, and at the same time greeted the lion with his voice with a special metallic tone that was mechanically modified. His words contained the unique joy of Mars believers, "Since seven hundred and thirty-seven Since the destruction of Caliban many years ago, I have never been so joyful, for today the glory of the Om Messiah protects us with you.”

The lion pursed his lips, his beard hiding some of his microexpressions, and he nodded solemnly while glancing at his brother who was clearly starting to have too many little secrets.

"You don't have to look at me like that. I do have more margin now than I did at the beginning." When the sheepdog began to speak human words, many Dark Angel veterans present showed subtle and different instinctive combat reactions, "You The offspring are really like a nest of little potatoes...the more you dig, the more you get."

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, sail quickly to Kamath to join Zabriel. He will bring you some of your descendants. The number of veterans who appeared during the time you woke up is simply greater than all the First Legion in ten thousand years." The results will be a hundred times greater. Ah, by the way, don’t forget to ask him about the details of his trip later. Finally, I will temporarily take over your navigation this time.”

Leon frowned and wanted to ask further about his brother who was obviously wise, but the dog patted him and signaled him not to ask here, which made the heirs who had just returned widen their eyes.

The communicator on the lion's body sounded, and the distress signal from Kamaz was notified to everyone present.
