Chapter 2 Intelligence Officers and Fortune Tellers
At the same time.
Hazy Star Field, Marquez King Zone, Kuitun.
The subspace storm dissipated.
The news spread throughout the entire star sector in an instant.
It's inevitable and uncontrollable. The subspace storm came too suddenly, and many merchant fleets from other parts of the empire were stranded in Phaeton Harbor, and these merchant fleets also had their own navigators, but they probably didn't observe subspace as often as the Iron Float Troop.
It was an unexpected surprise for all the merchant fleets stranded in Phaeton. Some of them had planned to settle in the Phaeton Casting World, but they were desperate to get in touch with the outside world, to get in touch with their former hometowns, to confirm what year and month it was.
The results can be devastating.
From 31 to 32.
More than a thousand years have passed.
The vicissitudes of life, the stars change, and things are not people.
But for Aoyama Khan, the dissipation of the storm was not unexpected, and more precisely, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time. Ever since he entered the palace of Terra and met the carrion on the throne, he knew that the storm would one day dissipate. His warband is like a giant beast lurking on the borders of the Empire, silently polishing its fangs and claws, waiting for the day when it will break out of its cage.
Today, the cage that binds the behemoth is opened.
The Four Gods of Chaos could no longer trap this warband.
Fu Qinghai convened a meeting of the battle group as soon as possible.
……
Suzheng, conference room.
Fu Qinghai looked around at his subordinates.
Everyone is gearing up, and their fighting spirit is boiling.
"Don't be in a hurry, calm down, guys."
Fu Qinghai raised his palm and pressed it down.
"I know you all can't wait to get into a fight, but before we can get into this storyline event, we need to pick up two people who are vital to our warband."
Everyone looked at the battle leader silently.
Waiting for him to give the order.
"Prepare the warband fleet and send a strike cruiser to the Kronos expansion area to pick up our intelligence officer, and send a strike cruiser to Fenris to pick up our soothsayer...... Let's go! ”
Fu Qinghai gave the first order.
"Understood, Khan."
The Space Marines agreed.
…………
Calisis Star Zone, the world of the nest of Sintila.
A star sector that has disappeared for more than a thousand years has returned to the Empire's field of vision, accompanied by an Astarte wargroup that has disappeared for more than a thousand years, this matter is extraordinary, and it will naturally attract the attention of the relevant departments - the Torch Court that observes the starry sky, and the Inquisition that investigates evil......
The first to notice this incident was naturally the neighbor of the Márquez Wang District, the Kalisis Star District. The capital of the Kalisis Star District, the Cintila Nest World, is located in the Triangle Palace of the Inquisition Court in the north of the Nest Capital, and the inquisitors working here received the relevant news as soon as possible.
"My lord, Vermilion Grade Document!"
An acolyte came in a hurry.
Holding a pile of sheepskin scrolls in his hand.
"Márquez Wang's Sector is back?"
The inquisitor looked through the documents in his hand and wondered.
The inquisitor turned to look at his acolyte:
"Who else knows the news?"
"Now the whole Triangle Palace knows, and I believe that soon, the whole of Sintila will also know."
The acolyte lowered his head and said honestly.
"Hmm...... This kind of news can't be hidden. ”
The Inquisitor groaned with his chin pinched.
After all, it is a star sector, and this kind of news cannot be blocked, the key is what kind of impact this star sector that has returned to the real universe will have on the Kalysis star sector, I heard that there was an Astarte battle group stationed there......
"What is the attitude of the other Inquisitors?"
The Inquisitor turned his head and asked.
"As far as I know, they're also on the sidelines. I want to wait for things to clear up before I make a statement on this incident. ”
The acolyte replied softly.
"I see, you can retreat first."
The inquisitor waved his hand and commanded:
"I'll be notified as soon as there's new news."
"Yes, sir."
The acolyte bowed and exited the room.
After his men left, the young inquisitor slowly sat down at his desk. He opened the drawer under the table, groped in the drawer, his fingers touched a bulge in the corner of the drawer, he picked it with his fingernails, and suddenly a metal object fell from the top of the drawer.
The Inquisitor took the metal object steadily, and took out the drawer and put it in front of him. It is a brooch-sized round metal badge, with signs of wear on the edges and surface, and seems to be very old, with a black and gold patterned relief outlining a nine-headed sea serpent coiled up.
"It's been a thousand years."
The inquisitor rubbed the surface of the badge and muttered:
"Are you finally coming back, my lord?"
……
Calisis Star Zone, Kronos Expansion Zone.
A yellow, sickly orange glow sprinkled through the Celestial Domain.
This area is so close to the Screaming Vortex that almost no one has visited it, even after thousands of years. There are ribbons of celestial debris between the stars, and "ribbons" of large and small meteorites drift and spread between the planets.
Hiding in the meteorite belt is a dilapidated merchant ship.
This dilapidated merchant ship has been floating quietly here for thousands of years, almost merging with the shattered celestial bodies around it, but fortunately, the vacuum is a good preservation environment, and although the merchant ship has decayed, it has not completely disintegrated.
A strike cruiser stopped in front of the merchant ship.
Fu Qinghai sat on the captain's seat and tapped his fingers.
The commander of the war group personally greeted the return of the intelligence officer.
"Click, click, click......"
Fu Qinghai's chin was bored.
I thought to myself: It's almost time to come back......
As if responding to what he was thinking.
A cold prompt suddenly sounded in my mind:
[Welcome to the Reincarnation Overworld, Warhammer 40K Universe - SSS Class]
[Autoload Skill: High Gothic Mastery, Low Gothic Mastery]
[Automatically continue the faction selection for you - Emperor Camp Plot Line]
"Whew, as expected, it's finally here."
Fu Qinghai stood up from his seat.
At this time, the battered merchant ship in front of the cruiser had its ridge broken into several sections, and the side of the ship was already full of holes. A flash of white light suddenly flashed, and a figure wearing iron-gray unpainted power armor appeared on the deck of the ship.
The tall figure knelt silently on the deck.
After a moment, he looked up.
The cold, scarlet eyepiece glowed.
Fu Qinghai hooked the corners of his mouth and laughed:
"Welcome home, Fifty-Six."
The voices in the communication channel are slightly electric.
…………
The junction of the hazy and solar fields.
Fenris Death World, Wolftooth Castle.
The Abbey, the warband fortress of the Space Wolves, is forever shrouded in a year-round ice and snow. This ancient interstellar fortress has a large and complex interior.
A few warband servants walked up and down the passages, cleaning day after day with cleaning tools. A warband servant passed by a room and looked up, the door of which was covered with an old metal seal. According to rumors in the fortress, this room has been sealed for thousands of years and has never been opened.
Although there was some curiosity in their hearts, wondering what was going on in this room, no one dared to break the ban of Lord Astarte to open the seal and find out.
The warband servants bowed their heads and continued to clean.
Focused, he didn't notice.
There seemed to be a flash of white light through the crack in the door.
"Gollum...... Click. ”
Jerky pulley rolling and unlocking sounds.
The warband servants looked up in surprise.
"Click, ......Click, Click, T
This mysterious room, which has been sealed in the dust for more than a thousand years, has begun to open from the inside out without anyone touching it? Is this something resurrected?
The warband servants froze in place.
"Squeak......
The door opened inward, and dust rose outward.
A blindfolded woman stood behind the door.
Not an imaginary rotting corpse, a white skeleton, or some other mutated creature. The woman was plainly dressed, with fair skin, rosy lips, and a black cloth covering her eyes, and turned her head to "look" at the standing servants of the war band.
"Uh, I, you, I'......"
Warband Servants are a bit unorganized by language.
"Is Company Commander Saloyan Scarson here?"
The blindfolded woman asked calmly.
"You're looking for Captain Saloyan Scarson?"
The warband servants came back to their senses and confirmed in surprise.
"Boom, Boom, Boom......"
The sound of clashing armor rang out around the corner of the hallway.
A team of space wolf space marines strode in.
"Blind lady, please come with me."
The wolf warrior at the head spoke.
The blindfolded woman went over immediately without saying a word.
"Isn't Saloyan Scarson in Wolftooth Castle?"
The woman asked, hurrying to keep up with the Space Marine.
"Scarson Warband Leader is out hunting, ma'am."
Space Wolf Space Marines said expressionlessly.
"Where are we going now?"
The blindfolded woman then asked.
"Fenris's spaceport, ma'am. The strike cruisers of the Iron Float are already waiting for you there. ”
Space wolf Space Marines said.
……
Cruiser Liema, bridge.
Blind followed the two Space Marines here, and looked up at the tall figure on the steps of the bridge - slightly disappointed, not the man she was expecting. The other party's shiny bald head reflected in the light.
The bald Space Marines turned:
"You're the blind?"
Blind nodded.
She didn't know the bald Space Marine. The other party's entire chin was replaced by a dark golden prosthetic, giving people a cold and hard feeling, and the expression on his face was also elusive. But Blind Sight faintly detected a hint of unfriendliness in his tone, though she didn't understand why.
"I see a hint of surprise on your face."
The bald Space Marines were also looking at her:
"You don't seem to have expected it to be me."
Blind Wen Yan pursed his lips slightly.
She knew what the other person was going to say next.
"Why, didn't you predict it this time?"
Sure enough, the bald Space Marines curled the corners of their mouths and said. There was a hint of contempt on his face:
"I thought that the legendary 'prophet' was under your control of anything that happened in the future."
