Warhammer Inquisitor Chapter 451

  Chapter 451 Rebirth from the ashes:

The majestic transport ship roared past the hanging window. Although it was sailing in the vacuum of the universe, there was still a violent vibration when its huge propeller flew past the window, making the hard tempered glass tremble in front of it. endlessly.

The golden epaulettes illuminated by the bright fire, the imperial sky eagle logo branded on its shoulders shines brightly, that is the logo of the navy, an eagle with wings outspread is holding an anchor in its claws, and below the briefing is A blue navy uniform, it clings rigidly to its wearer.

   On the other side of the corridor of the battleship, there is another glass, which is a hanging window looking into the interior of the ship. The firelight from the propeller of the transport ship behind it illuminates it, reflecting Cole's face.

He stood behind the sloping glass of the corridor and looked at the busy deck below. There were transport planes parked below. They lined up around the entire deck. The deck is full of a lot of cargo.

The machine servants are busy carrying on the entire deck, and the automatic transport vehicle shuttles between the fighter planes, piles of materials are sorted and placed on the entire deck, and the mechanical priests classify them and hand them over to the corresponding transport team for transportation. The entire deck was busy, and there was a lot of noise under Cole's feet.

"Hey, it looks like there are quite a lot of things." A person suddenly appeared behind Cole silently, and the black windbreaker he was wearing was also reflected on the glass. The eagle badge flickered on the side of Cole's reflection.

Cole glanced at the reflection on the glass, he looked at the man's face and frowned, "Vito? Where did you go before?" "A secret, my old friend, if I were you I wouldn't Asking random questions is called a secret."

  Vito stood behind Cole with one hand on his hips, standing shoulder to shoulder with the captain. The latter looked at him in silence for a moment, then sighed softly, and then looked at the unloading deck below.

   "No, it's not enough. This supply is barely enough to support your entire ship, let alone the entire fleet."

   "Hmph, it seems that the oil guys here are not very cooperative."

He looked down at the forge world below through the window on the other side. There were many light spots on the surface, which was a sign that the workshops of the entire planet were fully activated. Billowing thick smoke rose into the sky and filled the entire planet. in the atmosphere.

   "I guess, surely it's not because they don't have one?"

   "Yes, the reason is that you tricked them, and now the oil guy is getting angry."

Cole turned his head to look at him, and the latter was standing in front of the window laughing with his arms folded. Cole looked at the guy in front of the window, "You asked Ragnar and the others to deliberately open a hole in the front line, exposing the casting The location of the world attracts Tyrannos from there to directly bypass the rest of the defended planets and head straight for here."

   "That's costing the whole Forge World, Vito, so yeah, the Oil Guys are all **** off right now, and if it wasn't for your ship, they'd be firing on us."

   "This planet is still there, so that means I was right, doesn't it?" Vito smiled playfully in front of the window, he folded his arms and looked at the planet below and shrugged.

"This is the richest area in the Obscure Starfield. Of course, the Forge World of Mechanicus is also quite rich. They have enough exploration and war fleets, and they are huge enough to resist a Hive Fleet after the first creation. It's just them I just don't want to send it out."

"These guys expect us to clean up the mess for them. They don't want to send troops to let us deal with the swarm, and they use various reasons to perfuse my call-up order, so let someone more convincing come to them. "

   "So, you put the entire remaining Hive Fleet in and forced the Mechanicus to send troops to protect themselves?"

   "It's easy to use, isn't it? It's much more effective than our orders." Vito scratched his nose with a smile. His sly smile almost looked like a Tzeentch follower who had almost succeeded in his plan.

   Cole snorted. He and Vito overlooked the foundry world with one hand on his hip, and looked at the fleet of transport ships traveling back and forth in its orbit. "You are really damaged."

   "At least in this way, we can save troops to defend the hive world and more important places like the agricultural planet, can't we?"

   "Indeed, but there is also a small problem. The Mechanicus is furious and refuses to provide us with sufficient supplies. What should we do now?"

   "Only this one trouble?"

   "For now."

   "Very well, I will give them an undeniable offer." After Vito said, he turned and walked to the far end of the corridor, and Cole followed him after watching his back and laughing.

The two quickly passed through the sightseeing corridor on the height of the Emperor Mirage, walked through the long marble halls, wings and various winding corridors under the shining starlight, and finally came to the top of the battleship, In the throne room of the Great Temple.

Guarded by two gigantic angel statues outside the window, Vito walked into the throne room and flipped into the silver throne. He sat on the throne with one leg up, raised his head slightly towards the technical priest with his hands in his arms, "Connect Correspondence with the General of the Forge World, telling him that the Marshal himself summoned him."

   "Just post it like this, no need to beautify it."

   The technical priest nodded. He turned around and began to operate the instrument in front of him. There were more technical priests in red robes around him, and they all started working.

Cole walked up to the side of the throne. He stood on the side of the silver throne with his hands behind his back, and looked at the holographic communication interface that gradually appeared in front of him with Vito. Quickly manifest and converge, and quickly stabilize the display under the control of the surrounding priests.

On the square holographic interface, a rotating mechanical skull appeared. The thing occupied there for a long time before flashing into a figure, wearing a red robe, with dark green mechanical eyes shining under the tall hat. Where did members of the Mechanicus appear.

  Vito looked at him leaning on the throne, holding his belly with his hands and showing a smile, "General Casting, you made us wait for a while, what happened?"

   "I'm sorry, Marshal, I, am dealing with the serious loss of the foundry world, ordering the various factories to complete the manufacturing tasks to repair, the loss."

   "It sounds like the situation is very bad. Is it so bad that you can't even provide supplies for my fleet?" "I'm afraid it is, Marshal. The forge world has suffered heavy losses. We are unable to provide you with supplies. Please forgive me."

Vito snorted softly, he raised one leg in front of him, and put his hands on that knee, "Oh? Really, but I saw that the surface of the planet was still brightly lit, and molten iron was still flowing between the hive capitals. The black smoke went straight into the sky, maybe I was hallucinating? What I saw was an intact forging world."

General Casting looked at Vito here, his eyes turned half a circle in front of him, a dim light flickered on the mechanical eyeball, he clenched the sage's scepter in his hand, "Please forgive me, Marshal, our defense The fleet was completely lost in previous battles, and the forge world lacks the ability to protect itself, so, according to the priority of the program, the priority is to restore the safety of the planet to ensure the continuation of production."

   "The foundry world must continue production in order to pay tithes to the empire. If there is a lack of defensive fleets, the foundry world is dangerous and production will be hindered."

  Vito smiled silently while leaning on the throne. He raised one hand and put it on the armrest, "I don't think so, General, because we are here, and my fleet will provide you with security."

  The moment Vito said this, Cole felt a trace of obvious anger from the almost completely mechanized face of the foundry general, and the cold anger rose from the steel surface.

  The general was silent for a while, and the parameters kept rolling in his eyeballs. It seemed that the emotional suppression program on his own had played a role, suppressing the anger and replacing it with more rational personality parameters.

"Your "safety" guarantee is a great honor to me, but, according to our teachings, as a servant of the God of All Things, I also need to undertake the mission of exploring unknown technologies, which means that several exploration fleets and relevant The **** ship, the road to knowledge, cannot be interrupted."

   Cole frowned. He stared at the casting general in front of him and put his hands behind his back. "Are you putting the interests of the Mechanicus before the emperor's empire? Casting general."

  Facing the reprimand, General Casting remained unmoved in the face of the reprimand. He glanced coldly at Captain Cole, his dark green mechanical eyes flickered with strips of light, and General Casting's icy voice came out through the horn on his shoulder.

"Your argument is wrong. According to the "Olympia Agreement", the Mechanicus and the Empire are only alliances, not subordinates. Therefore, it is logical to put the interests of the Ohm Messiah first. The Empire, according to the procedure, takes priority level after this."

   "You!" Cole stepped forward angrily and raised his finger, but was stopped by Vito's raised hand. He sat on the throne and put his hands on his knees calmly, still calm and unbreakable.

   "If I remember correctly, Sage, according to your teachings, exploring unknown knowledge and mastering it is the ultimate goal, right?" "Conclusion, correct."

"Then, why don't you send your fleet to join me?" Vito said faintly, Cole glanced at him in surprise, the priest fell silent all of a sudden, his eyes flickered quickly Parameter blip, "Logic, request explanation."

"You see, you want to explore unknown knowledge, and I want to launch a great expedition. The two do not conflict or even have the same goal. Those unknown stc templates are often located in remote galaxies, and that is my goal. I lay down planets. You dig intellectual heritage, I win, and you win too."

  Vito stretched out his arms in front of him, and leaned on the throne with a smile on his face, "And from the perspective of probability, shouldn't the factor of safety be higher with the expeditionary force escorting your exploration fleet?"

"I have many Astartes, Imperial Navy, and Astral Army under my command. You don't need to send fleets and cathars to conquer the planet. My expeditionary fleet can complete tasks more efficiently and serve as guards for technological excavations. Let us continue to fight and better protect the safety of the exploration fleet."

   "More importantly, the safety of the stc template. You can obtain the stc template without paying any additional price. Shouldn't you provide us with enough supplies for this? For you, and for Omi Messiah."

With a sly smile on Vito's face, he leaned on the throne and looked at the priest like a king, "Join my expedition, and all the new stc templates unearthed on unknown planets will be yours, anyway, I'm so good Shouldn't it be handed over to the Mechanicus for research and production?"

Vito stood up slightly as he spoke, and put his hands on the armrests to get close to the face of the foundry general, "The only difference is whether it is the foundry world handed over to you, or something else. On this road of exploration, many people are not ?"

"I think the other forging worlds nearby might be more interested? Should I ask them?" Vito said with a smile on his face. Cole glanced at the corner of his mouth and showed a smile. This guy is using The fact that the cults of the Mechanicus compete with each other for technological achievements makes the chain of suspicion and confrontation within the cult of the Mechanicus work for their own use.

  He is still so cunning, or in other words, good at balancing, Vito will not force you, will not force you to join him, but he will make you a condition, a condition that you cannot refuse.

"Should I contact the other sages and foundry generals now?" Vito raised his finger to gesture to the technical priest beside him, who nodded tacitly and called out the star language communications of several other foundry worlds in the star area , but specifically projected onto the big screen.

The priest on the communication screen saw the communication. He lowered his head and nodded to Vito without making too much silence, "Your logic is rigorous and correct. After calculation, I accept your suggestion. Supplies will be made in Delivered in a few days."

"Happy cooperation." Vito leaned back into the throne with a smile. He leaned on the back and waved his hands like a king receiving his courtiers. Now, the cast general who was still in "independent status" just now has a request from Vito. Became his new underling.

   "Go down, General, and praise the Om Messiah and the Emperor."

   "Praise you too, Marshal."

  Foundry General disappeared from the screen after finishing speaking. Cole smiled and glanced at Vito who was standing aside. He stretched his arms, "You really are, you cunning guy."

   "Thank you, if there is nothing else, then I will go back first, I have a long date tonight."

   "Hmph, good luck."

  Vito walked off the throne after saying that, he turned and walked towards the passage in the distance, Cole smiled as he watched his back going away, and then looked at the priest beside him.

   "Notify Anna, ready to receive supplies."

   It's too difficult to get the title, or we don't have the title in the future (bushi)

   In addition, readers and adults, please ask for a monthly pass to light the astronomical torch. For the sake of the emperor, give me a hand!
