4.1 Uninvited guests

【Eye of Fear】

[What the hell is that?] 】

Hoarse whispers poured down from the shadows, like crow feathers slicing across the skin.

【Monster,】

The Great Khan said calmly, sitting at the command table with his head propped in his fingertips and his other hand resting casually on the map.

A disgruntled click of machinery sounded from the corner beside him, as if in silent protest, and Khan glanced at the red-robed mechanical sage with bullet marks, and calmly looked away,

Or the Lord of the Empire's Silent Retreat. 】

The corners of the Khan's mouth showed a smile that could not be distinguished from a mockery or a wry smile,

[Or both—I think that's something the emperor can do.] 】

In the shadows, a tall man with a pale face and a gloomy expression appeared, his long hair was draped, his face was somewhat similar to Coetze's, and his black pupils were full of sorrow and puzzlement.

He appeared, walked up to the Khan,

【Can be ......】

Corac said with a sigh,

【…… What's really going on here...... What really happened to the Empire? 】

The two legions that arrived in a hurry barely managed to stabilize near Cadia after experiencing countless subspace turbulent shocks.

Only here is the turbulence of psionic energy in the vacuum less chaotic.

As for why, even those who don't know anything about the Immortals would know why, from the fleet's observation portholes, all the psionic energy around the planet was gathered in one area, right there—at a point in Cadia.

A violent psionic storm visible to the naked eye gathers there, and the mere sight of it makes people feel dizzy.

The never-ending clouds rolled, like a place of calamity sealed with evil gods in legend.

The Khan frowned, and there was no joy or anger on his majestic face,

[The first person to see a wolf will not know how good the wolf's fangs are, brother, we are the first witnesses—or the first to see a wolf is dead. 】

Corakes smiled wryly, "I'd love to get out of here, it's uncomfortable here. 】

Chagatai was silent, staring at the holographic map, staring at the command platform, where the last news from Imperial Terra was beating incompletely,

The Emperor's Legion of Edicts must cooperate with the Lord of the Silent Order to confront the enemies of the Empire.

But where is the Lord of the Silent Retreat?

And while the two legions searched aimlessly, countless space wrecks, ships of the Whisperers, and ships of the Iron Warriors attacked them.

The light spears and grand cannons of the former empire were aimed at their kindred, but fortunately, the eagle's eyes were still sharp, and almost at the same time as they were attacked, the white-scarred fleet immediately counterattacked.

No one can keep up with the engines of White Scar, neither in the prairie nor in space.

At the same time, the fleet guarded by the Ravens lost a portion of it.

It's not just the scattered and weird fleets they're dealing with—there's also the subspace waves that crash against them all the time, the ship's detection equipment failing at any time, the crew's condition deteriorating, and even going crazy at critical junctures.

In order to reduce the impact of the subspace on the crew and the warriors, the two legions supported each other and came to the skies above Cadia under the prediction of the White Scar Storm Prophet.

According to the Storm Prophet, it is a place where huge giants are wrestling with each other.

Therefore, the ants are neglected, and they only need to worry about not letting themselves be affected by the aftermath of the giant's feet.

And in the skies above Cadia, an uninvited guest came to the fleet of White Scarred-

A broken ship of the Silent Order.

They were miserable to see everyone fall into an extreme state of sometimes fanatical madness, sometimes exhaustion, and when they were not attacked, they almost fell asleep on the ground.

When the Great Khan himself stepped on their ship, he saw a crowd of "corpses" scattered all over the place.

Khan raised an eyebrow.

The temporary leader of this group was a crazy-looking oilman - he wasn't even the original crew of this fleet.

According to another soulless person who seems to have some qualifications, this mechanical sage is a believer who has received a message from Kirkland Sage for help and has rushed alone because of the same faith.

It was the sheer amount of supplies he had brought with him that kept the Silent Order fleet, which was about to be wiped out and was about to crash headlong into the land of Kadia, for a little longer.

The original body of the white scar doesn't know what to say about it,

Whether it was the mechanical sage who arrived by faith alone, or the Silent Retreat led by an alien sage because almost all of the higher-ups had already gone to Kadia and were all wiped out.

It's almost a nonsense scene!

The Khan drank it in his heart, but in the face of the mortals who were extremely emaciated, but still held out until reinforcements arrived, the original body silently swallowed his scolding.

They've done a great job.

The Khan banged on the table, the absurd situation, the absurd enemy, the vague target, the vultures were hovering above their heads,

The two primordials fell silent at the same time, and the situation in the Eye of Fear was even more confusing than the bright side of the empire with Makado, or the dark side of the empire that was directly attacked.

Khan pondered, and vaguely, he felt something above Kadia calling him from afar.

Was the call real, or was it just a hallucination?

Seeing that the two primordial bodies were silent, the great sage took a step forward, and a vivid mechanical sound sounded,

"My lords, no offense—but we need to save Hades, the Lord of the Silent Retreat, and this is a matter of great importance, and we must not delay it in the slightest."

The light on the sage's face flickered, the sage was highly mechanized, and the Khan suspected that he might have less than one percent of the biomass in his body.

The Khan looked at the sage and was silent.

Seeing that the original body did not interrupt him, the sage continued to speak,

"My psionic probe tells me that the subspace is changing dramatically right now—soon other beings are about to arrive, but in my humble opinion, it's not friendly forces that are coming."

"They ......"

The sage paused, then raised his voice,

"It's for the Lord of the Silent Retreat! Your Honour - we must not allow the Lord of the Silent Order to fall into the hands of an adversary, for you may not be aware of the true power of Hades, the Immortal, whose presence has suppressed this tumbling subspace, otherwise it would have been completely swallowed up by the Eye of Fear. ”

The mechanical sage spreads his hand,

"I have received the last words of the Sage Kirkland, my lord, the Eye of Fear we are in now is the border between earth and hell, and the Silent Order that has arrived here in the name of the Empire has tried to seal it away."

"Now,"

The sage lowered his voice, he bent forward, and boldly used his mechanical arm to shrink the map on the command table, the partial map of the Eye of Fear was reduced, and the map of the entire empire appeared.

The sage's mechanical arm made a rough line on the map,

"Your Excellency, you don't know that it is because of the loss of this place...... Now half of the human empire has fallen into hell. ”

Since entering the Eye of Fear, White Scar and Raven have not heard from the outside world.

Khan folded his arms and frowned, he said,

[Do you know what you're talking about?! Tarasin! 】

"Yes, my lord, I know, with all the fame of the Great Sage Tarasin, I know very well what I am talking about."

Tarasin said.

I'm here at Space Necro Tarasin and thought, don't let me die here, Hades.

He doesn't like to break promises.

But then, Tarasim distracted himself and looked at the real-time Kadia picture in his mind,

,

The space overlord cursed secretly,

It's not dead, Hades, you kid is so hard?

Dull clouds answered him.

It's a pity that the space necrons have no soul, and Hades can't respond to Tarasin.

All right!
