Warhammer Inquisitor Chapter 651

  Chapter 651 Doomsday Storm: Macragge's Future

The Hera Fortress is very large, and there are many fortresses scattered throughout its huge space. The entire fortress is composed of four giant bastions. They each have different characteristics and styles. Constructed in a simple style, it is the terminal platform that bears most of the anti-aircraft firepower of the fortress.

  Here, Ostilias, the western fortress "tower of the guard" in the opposite direction, is completely opposite. They are not only different in direction, but also in the entire architectural style.

How simple is Orfeo Fort, how luxurious it is here, with magnificent suspended ceilings, exquisite columns, and smooth and bright marble floors. At the end, other than that, there are gorgeous murals, which fill people's vision in art.

  Silver armored boots came from the end of the corridor. As he walked, he was accompanied by the sound of gnawing apples. Everyone at the end of the corridor turned their heads and looked at the person who came.

   The Ultramarine Honor Guard holding a halberd came forward. He walked out from between the armed bodyguards standing on both sides, and looked at the people who were walking straight.

   "Master Vito, I haven't received a notice that you are also coming to the meeting."

   "You were not informed, but you now know."

Vito took a bite of the apple, and glanced at the mortal bodyguards crowded in the corridors on both sides. They were dressed in different clothes, some wore the white police uniform of the Ministry of Justice, and wore laser pistols on their waists, while others wore the red robes of the state religion. A censer hung from his belt, and a shiny pistol.

There are also people from the Mechanic Church, they are silent, the most likely reason is that their entire faces are mechanized, there are several tubes inserted into their bodies, and the weapons are directly fixed on their legs so that they can be pulled out at any time. There were men from the Ministry of State, in gray overcoats and with weapons at their waists.

"Get out of the way, I want to go in." Vito ate the apple, looked at the door at the end of the corridor, the sunlight came in from the window on one side, and sprinkled on the door obliquely, making the golden sign of Macragge flash extraordinarily .

  Vito stepped forward, and the Ultramarines immediately stepped up and blocked Vito, "I'm sorry, my lord, but we have received orders that no one who has not been invited is not allowed to enter."

"Then you have a new mission now, get out of the way.", "My lord, are you sure...", "What? Do you want me to say please?" The Ultramarines hesitated for a moment, then moved aside, and he raised his halberd violently Standing by the door, he slammed the tip of the halberd into the ground, the surface of the door shone brightly, and then separated to both sides.

  Vito took a bite of the apple and walked over. The guards in the corridor gave way to both sides, and the people from the legal department stood at attention to salute him. Vito simply returned the salute to them, and then walked into the room.

This is a conference room. There are several people sitting around the round table, but the most conspicuous one is the person at the corner of the table near the floor-to-ceiling windows. He stood up, and his tall figure blocked the sunlight, casting a straight and wide shadow.

   "Vito, what are you doing here? You were not invited.", "Now you are, Guilliman, Servant, find me a seat, where? Anywhere."

The servant came over with a chair staggeringly, and placed the chair next to Guilliman. He looked at Vito in surprise, and the latter sat down directly, and after pulling up his clothes, Glancing at the people sitting at the table, "I don't need to introduce myself, right?"

   "Of course, my lord, we all know you, I am..."

"Juseppe Plei, the Minister of Government Affairs of the Macragge Sector, has a huge estate in Montero. How big is that place? 70% of the arable land on the planet, and you, dear Songde Archbishop Gaucho, moral guardian of the state religion."

Vito put his hands on his stomach, leaned on the back of the chair and smiled at them one by one, "Rocky Ram, the chief of staff of the Ultramar Defense Force, did you have the unfortunate death of the commander-in-chief recently? It's really shocking." Unfortunately, there is also Law Enforcement Officer Fidler Ambrose, the Chief Executive Officer of the Legal Department, is your refinery business on Ostmark Star still doing well?"

"Thanks to you and the Emperor's favor, my lord, everything is going well, as is the security of the star area." President Fiedler responded with a smile, and he sat back again. Vito nodded and leaned on the With his head resting on the back of the chair, "That's good. How about you, Bishop Campbell Pizarro, is your foundry world going well recently?"

   "Om Messiah's blessing, the production is going well, my lord.", "Hmm, isn't that right? After all, you have eight affiliated planets, under the management of the same casting world."

   "We are fighting now. I guess Lord Guilliman called you here to make sure there is something important. All of you here are big figures in the star area, and they have been in charge of the Macragge galaxy for many years."

Vito looked at Guilliman, and raised his head towards him in a gesture. Guilliman sighed and didn't drive him away. Guilliman sat down. His seat was the biggest, and he couldn't take off his Destiny Armor. If it comes off, as long as the instant it is taken off, the venom in his blood vessels will kill him instantly without the aid of the blood self-circulation system.

  My dear Ephraine is not here, or rather, her presence is useless, after all, it is the venom of Slaanesh, and Guilliman's soul will fly into the hands of Slaanesh just like the Eldar.

After everyone was seated, Guilliman put his hands on the table and looked at them one by one, "Macragge has worked so hard for you all these years. During the ten thousand years of my absence, let us Macragge's homeland can still be called a model for all the worlds of the Empire."

"It's all thanks to you, and of course the emperor's. We have followed the guidance you left behind to achieve what we are today." Husepe Minister of State Affairs smiled and rubbed his hands, smiling like a standard politician , but I think that has nothing to do with the guidance left by Guilliman 10,000 years ago, but because the Macragge sector does not have to pay tithes.

"We all rely on the glory of the Emperor! Without his light, we are nothing, and darkness will engulf all the planets." The bishop of the state church roared loudly, raised his hands, and cheered like the most devout believer, but he carefully In the cover-up movements, the rustiness was still exposed.

  With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Vito leaned back on the chair and raised his eyebrows, wondering how long he hadn't been to church.

Guilliman nodded, and raised his hand to signal to everyone present, "You are all elites in the star area. I don't deny your outstanding talents. In the future, I also hope that you will continue to serve the Empire and the Ultramarines and obey us. command."

   "Of course, my lord, this is what we should do." The Chief of Staff of the Defense Army smiled and nodded. He was far away from Guilliman, so he had to lean forward.

"Well, then I think that everyone here will have no objection to the order I am about to issue.", "Order? Your Excellency.", "Yes, Your Excellency Minister of State, I have decided that Macragge will be revoked. The special status of the five hundred worlds, from now on, the five hundred worlds will directly belong to the rule of the empire, and they will devote themselves to the war of the empire."

"This is a dark age. Macragge must not be alone. He will join me on a great unyielding expedition, burning his own resources and production capacity for the empire and all mankind, until the victory comes. I call everyone here today, It is to prepare you for execution in advance.”

After hearing this, the Minister of State Affairs froze. He and the bishop of the State Church exchanged glances. Guilliman raised his hand to them, "Of course, I know the incompetence of the imperial government. On the contrary, I will start from Transfer people from your departments and go to Terra and other government departments of the empire to reform them and make them act according to Macragge's standards."

   "When everyone, or your high-ranking officials leave, the Ultramarines and some outstanding members of the sub-groups I have selected will lead all the galaxies in Macragge. I hope that you will obey their leadership."

"Ahem, my lord, please forgive me, the Ultramarines are certainly outstanding fighters, but..." the Minister of State Affairs said pleasantly, with a smile on his face, but a little stiff, and the bishop of the Orthodox Church stood up suddenly, He shook his hands.

   "But they don't understand the way of faith at all, my lord, it is unimaginable that Astartes will lead the church... This, this is heresy!"

   "What?" Guilliman raised his eyebrows and asked, the bishop of the Orthodox Church froze for a moment and then quickly shook his head, "Of course, that doesn't refer to you, and your soldiers, but..."

"My lord, the Ultramarines don't know how to manage a planet at all. They are good at fighting chaos and aliens, but a planet?" The high-grade silver-white armor shone under the sunlight in the meeting room and the three-dimensional projection light on the table.

He waved his hand, the golden honor belt and the medal on it, "You can't expect the Astartes to go down to the hive capital to deal with those gangs, right? There are too many places They all need the Astartes, just leave them to us."

"Wouldn't all be part of the Chapter, you can rest assured there will only be a few illustrious members of the Astartes to lead you, trust my sons, the Ultramarines and their fraternal Chapters are not space wild Wolf, of course, I have no intention of offending the warriors of Russ."

  "My soldiers have received systematic education in literature, science, and management. Apart from killing the enemy, they are also good at many things. Isn't Macragge a proof?"

   "Of course, but."

"But your fighters don't understand that their direct intervention in the production process of the Mechanicus will lead to serious production accidents and reduced production capacity." Under the robe, several mechanical hands were lifted up, making the pair of green mechanical eyes flicker.

"My lord, you have been away from the empire for a long time. You don't know the current empire. Why don't you leave these troubles to us? We will be happy to serve you, and of course, the emperor." smile.

"Can't let Astartes be the Emperor's weapon, not his thoughts! The Imperial Gospel says so!" The bishop of the state religion recited loudly, shaking the rosary beads in his hands one by one, and he raised his hands high , as if to go straight to heaven and let the emperor hear, "This is the order of the emperor himself, his words! Astartes must not interfere in politics, absolutely not!"

"I understand every word of my father, archbishop, I don't remember him saying this." Guilliman said, arching his hands and frowning. The bishop glanced at him, and he threw up his hands, "This is the Emperor's Gospel The exact words! Astartes must not be involved in politics, otherwise they will repeat the mistakes of ten thousand years ago! I will never allow it."

"My lord, the Astartes don't understand the society of the empire. They grew up in monasteries and fortresses, and left their hometown when they were young. They understand war, but they don't understand humans. It is not appropriate for them to lead the planet. We solemnly I implore you, think about it."

"Of course, we are happy to help you with anything, and in this matter, and all." The Minister of State Affairs rubbed his hands and said with a smile, his gold teeth flashed between his lips, and the dark green coat on his body On the jacket, all kinds of fancy decorations jingle with his movements.

Guilliman looked at him, and glanced at Vito from the corner of his eye, who hadn't said anything except the beginning until now. He glanced at Guilliman, just changed his posture, but still didn't say anything , hummed a ditty instead.

  Guilliman was silent for half a second and looked back at the few people. He stood up, "I will remember your words. Now, let's stop talking here. I will announce the final decision at the Hera meeting tomorrow."

"May you make the most correct decision, my lord, and the Emperor bless you." The Minister of State Affairs stood up, and he bowed to Guilliman and then walked towards the reopened door. The bishop of the State Church put his hands in his sleeves and followed He started talking with him, and the Minister of Justice followed behind them and walked out quickly.

The mechanical bishop stepped on his many iron feet, and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor with the sound. Vito and the chief of the defense army's general staff looked at each other. The latter smiled at him, and then remembered to respect him After a salute, Vito didn't return the salute, so he left in such a hurry.

   "How is it? Was it an accident?" Vito turned his head and asked Guilliman behind him, who snorted and stood in front of the narrow window with his hands behind his back, "Accident?"
