Warhammer Inquisitor Chapter 480

  Chapter 480 Reborn from the Ashes: The Pointing Land

Petronilla didn't expect that she would have the opportunity to appear at the war meeting so soon. It should have taken a long time, but she just woke up this morning and was about to put on her clothes and go to the cafeteria for breakfast. This order, or invitation.

The person who came to deliver the letter was no longer a servo skull or a soulless machine servant, but a real officer, a neatly dressed and tall naval officer. Usually they rarely appeared in the speaker's dormitory area, but today In the morning he showed up and brought a pass.

   That is the identification card to the core area of ​​the bridge. Wearing it, Petronilla can travel unimpeded in most areas of the battleship, even those military areas that are not open to preaching.

This caused quite a stir, but the officer just told her coldly that she had to arrive here before eleven o'clock, and she did exactly that, quickly put on her clothes, put on her identification card and came here .

When she arrived here, she was almost late. The weird and rugged corridors, passages and gates in the complex battleship delayed her a lot of time, but fortunately, she arrived in time. She didn't want to participate in the meeting for the first time. late.

So when she arrived, most of the people had already arrived, Fleet Commander-in-Chief Cole Makarian, Captain Renata Oliton of the Emperor Fantasy, and Anna Makarian, Yetta. The waits for Olyton, Peter Ivanov, and General Valker Ravanius have all expired.

There are also two Astartes Chapter Masters, Lancelot Colonne from Colony, and Bel Cassius from Macragge, who brought their Chapter members to attend the this.

Petronilla knew that Bell was actually of nobler origin, perhaps the noblest among the people present. He came from the same family as the noble Lord Regent, the Guilliman family, and he was the legal heir of the Guilliman family today. .

   But he modestly used his father's name on all occasions in a low-key manner, as the second address after his name, Cassius, instead of Guilliman.

  Anthony was also here, and Petronilla spotted him as soon as he came in, and unfortunately, he also found himself. After all, as the only two outsiders present, they could easily spot each other.

Anthony leaned over and exchanged pleasantries with her. Pedronila didn't like Anthony very much. He didn't like the arrogance when he spoke, as if he was Guilliman himself, and the smell of perfume on his body. The smell was as pungent and obnoxious as himself.

  He wanted to get a cliché from Petronilla. Regarding the Marshal, the world already knew that she was the Marshal's personal narrator, and it was rumored that she had a close relationship with the Marshal and had met privately many times.

So he wanted to extract some useful information from himself, just like everyone else, but they were all wrong, nothing happened to him and Vito, for more than a month, he didn't even touch himself, every time he met It was several steps apart, as if there was a layer of glass between them.

  She doesn't want to talk to this guy, at least not now, she really needs to get the news Vito wants from him, but not now, she wants to maintain a good mood this morning.

   Fortunately, she was rescued quickly, and after Anthony and her chatted for a long time, Vito strode in. Unlike the previous meeting, he put on the polished and beautiful armor.

  But for some reason, Petronilla saw tiredness on his face, quite tired, as if he didn't sleep last night and lost a battle with Chaos.

Everyone in the meeting room fell silent instantly, and consciously gathered at the holographic table in the center of the hall. Petronilla also leaned over, but he was still at the back of the crowd, as cautious as a solitary little fox. Observing all the people present, their demeanor, words and each other's eyes, to infer who doesn't like whom, and who maintains an intimate relationship with whom.

   The first person to speak was Cole Markarian. He was at the front of the crowd, close to the position of the marshal.

   "As everyone received last night, we have completed a month-long subspace voyage. Praise the Emperor. There is no abnormality in the time stamp, and the time and space between us and the real universe have maintained a normal interval."

Captain Cole was talking, no one interrupted, even the marshal listened to him quietly, Petronilla heard that Captain Cole and Vito have a close relationship, a relationship that can truly be called a friend , there are not many people present who are qualified.

   "The fleet has approached Mandeville Point in batches and is preparing to jump, but before that, we have sent an order to enter the battle state, and we can enter the battle after the jump."

"Renata, are you all ready?" Vito asked Renata Oliton. Petronilla heard that she was the marshal's old lover. The relationship between the two is also very close, and it is still the same in this way.

  Thinking of this, Petronilla was a little annoyed for some reason, and she didn't look so friendly at Renata anymore.

"Yes, the entire ship is ready, and the nearby warships have also completed their combat readiness tasks. The Sword of Order and the Augustus will enter the galaxy first with them, and there are dozens of other **** warships. They will arrive led by the Emperor's Wrath."

  The Sword of Order is Lancelot Colony's flagship, and there are several other ships that belong to them. Petronilla remembers the Lion King, Justice Execution, and Caldon, all of which are strike barges.

The Augustus is the flagship of Bell Cassius Guilliman, which means "The Great Lord", and it is also a huge flagship of the battle group. The rest are the Tyrion and the Light of Dawn. Both were strike barges, and Petronilla remembered another, but she forgot its name.

"Very good, how is the situation on the planet?" Vito asked, but it was not Cole who asked, but looked directly at Anthony next to him, and everyone also looked at this unpleasant "Guilliman" Grandmaster"

"You said we led here, I think, maybe you should tell us what's going on next." Vito asked with a kind smile, but after getting along for this period of time, Petronilla can recognize when His smile is true, when it is false.

   now belongs to the latter.

   "Lord Guilliman ordered you to come here, Your Excellency the Marshal."

  Anthony did not forget to mention this, Petronila could clearly feel that the surrounding officers showed the same disgust as her.

   "So, my dear Robert, have you been informed of any battlefield news? Or...he thinks you don't need to know?"

   "Of course he told me, my lord."

   "Then, please go ahead and take a step forward."

As Vito spoke, he made room for Anthony. He backed up a few steps and let Anthony stand up. Petronila saw Lancelot Cologne backing away with a disgusted expression, subconsciously pressing his fingers on the sword. Sheath on.

  Anthony stood in front of the advanced holographic table, and his fingers pulled up the projection of the planet on the table, hanging high in front of him like a bright moon rising from the sea of ​​light particles.

"On Alcombe, which is the planet we are about to arrive at, there was a rebellion by the Tzeentch cultists a few months ago. They attacked the planetary garrison and seized several hive areas, and summoned The strange demon army launched an attack on the remaining cities."

"The Alcombe government was on the verge of collapse, so it sought assistance from Terra, and praised the glory of the emperor, the astronomical language was successfully transmitted to Terra, and in exchange for the kindness of the regent, he ordered us to go to Ping An Rebellion, destroy daemons and rebels, and reclaim Alcombe in his and the Emperor's name."

  Petronilla was upset, in the name of Guilliman and the Emperor? Where is the Marshal? Where does this put the Marshal? She is not alone in thinking the same way.

   "Do we know the source of Tzeentch's infection? If the source of infection cannot be eliminated and the demons and rebels are eliminated, the crisis will reappear."

  Vito asked with that smile, looking very polite and kind, not full of dissatisfaction and hostility like the others, but Petronilla had reason to believe that it was the best disguise and deception.

   "No, we don't know yet. The local government collapsed very quickly, and we didn't have time to find out the situation. I think we have to rely on ourselves."

"It's a pity, but it's also very lucky, because there is a battle nun I know on the planet below. Her name is Sarah Malfoy. She is a respectable and wise senior nun who has fought against chaos for many years. I think she might be able to bring us a clue, maybe even the answer itself."

After Vito finished speaking, Anthony suddenly frowned. It was unconscious. It was obvious that he didn't know Sarah Malfoy. Are your sisters of the same clan?"

   "I doubt it. Sarah has been separated from the nuns, traveling alone and looking for ways to fight chaos for many years. I don't think our sisters will know him."

   "A nun who left the order? Your Excellency, I have doubts about this."

"If I guarantee her, can your doubts be alleviated?" He smiled, "Sarah is my friend, and she has cooperated with me and the court for many years in the past. Maybe some of the people present Friends have noticed that her surname is also Malfoy, because she is also the sister of the Lilith Tribunal."

Petronilla has never met Lilith Malfoy, but she has heard about him. According to legend, she has the closest relationship with Vito, and from the faces and discussions of the people around, Petronilla knows that The rumors were true.

  Vito looked at him with a smile, then raised his hand and put it lightly on Anthony's shoulder. He seemed to be very close to him, and there was no sign of a gap between the two.

   "Then, for my sake, can you trust her? As you trust me, my dear Anthony."

  Anthony Brutus was silent for a moment, and nodded after looking into his night-like eyes, "In your name, sir, I am willing to believe her."

"Thank you for your trust, my friend." Vito continued with that smile, and then looked at Lancelot Colony and Bell Guilliman. Petronilla saw that smile instantly changed The appearance turned into a real smile.

   "The old way, Cole and Reina will control the orbit, and then you will parachute down. Bell, you will assist the local defenders to hold on to the current position. Lancelot, your knights will send down death to make the traitors repent."

   "In the name of Ryan, they will definitely repent." Lancelot said repentance, but held the hilt of the sword with one hand, Petronila looked at the action and didn't want to be in front of him at that time.

But at the same time, there are some expectations. She wants to go down together, witness the victory and glory, and see what war looks like with her own eyes, instead of staying on the boat like everyone else, like eager children outside a candy store, watching from the window. something inside.

Petronilla was thinking, and after Vito finished explaining a series of instructions to others, he immediately looked with a smile on his face, "Ms. Petronilla Viva, come down with me, follow me, you Will be safe and witness."

  Petronilla was shocked by the sudden happiness, didn't understand it for a while, looked at him with a funny expression, and he looked at Anthony immediately.

   "You too, Mr. Anthony, you go down with us. Guilliman wants you to follow me, right? Then, continue to follow like this."

  Anthony hesitated a little, but nodded in response. He might need to wear a breastplate. His thin body can't stop a bullet, Petronilla thought, and neither could he.

  She still didn't react, and looked at Vito with a surprised expression, who also smiled at her and shrugged.

   "What? Don't you suspect that I have no glory? Then, go and witness with me."

  He said this, and Petronilla couldn't tell for a moment whether he was taking revenge after taking revenge, or he was making a funny joke with himself.
