Chapter 269: Confluence

Weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and Wei Mu and the others finally caught up with Killiman's indomitable expeditionary fleet.

After a long battle, the expeditionary fleet was still in decent condition and still retained a considerable degree of sharpness.

This is because Killeman always leaves considerable leeway in his plans to ensure that mistakes in one part of the process do not affect his overall strategic layout.

The timely delivery of these supplies will keep the fleet's vigorous offensive going, and the enemies of the Empire will not get any respite.

The confluence of the two Imperial forces has kept the Archons busy, with so many formalities and handovers to go through.

The Guardians sent a landing request to the Makulag Glory on the grounds that they wanted to meet the genoplasm.

His request was responded to almost immediately, and it was clear that Killiman had given the green light beforehand, and that the Triumphant Army would always be warmly welcomed.

There are a total of four people who will meet the Lord of the Ultramarines this time.

Vimund reports to Killiman about the Maelstrom Expedition, and Grand Sage Kaul reports on the research mission assigned by the Primordial.

As the grain transport officer this time, the leader of the Minotaur War Regiment, Molok naturally had to show up in the past and tell about the twists and turns that happened along the way.

As for the last one, it is Fugen, who is a clone.

He followed at the back of the line, wearing a suit of purple power armor with ornate gold ornamentation, and his handsome face was obscured by a helmet, making it impossible to see his expression.

For the upcoming meeting, Wei Mu felt a little worried.

Brothers, friends, brothers, family reunions, or something must not have extravagant hopes.

Considering Killiman's idealistic personality, a big fight between the two should not happen.

Wei Mu only hoped that the two of them could use the extraordinary wisdom of the original body to properly solve the problem, but the result of this meeting was most likely that both sides tortured and hurt each other, and the expressions on their faces were distorted into masks of pain.

This was not something he could do with it, so Wei Mu let out a long sigh.

When the Thunderhawk gunboat landed in the hangar of the Macurag's Glory, the housekeeper and attendant in charge of the reception were already waiting there.

The appearance of the crowd on the "Glory of Maculag" caused quite a commotion.

The herald of Otlama walked at the front of the procession, announcing the arrival of the Maelstrom to the others in a loud voice.

The pedestrians in the corridor have moved out of the way, whispering the identity of the comers, giving people a sense of déjà vu that the ancient high-ranking officials traveled and passers-by avoided them, so the commuting process of his people went very smoothly.

Under the guidance of the Interior Officer, the group took the elevator to the upper deck, and the magnificent palace of the Ultramarines immediately stood in front of everyone.

"I wish you all the best, my lord."

The Interior Officers and Attendants saluted respectfully to the crowd - only the Primordial Body's guards and invited personnel were allowed to enter, and his company had to end there.

"Good work."

Wei Mu nodded slightly, and then continued to walk towards the palace with everyone surrounded by many extreme warriors.

Arriving at the door of the hall, Wei Mu met the Honor Guard again.

Like theatrical actors, this group of Killiman's personal bodyguards suddenly flashed out from the left and right sides, turning into a blue terracotta steel wall, blocking the front of the marching procession, led by Cato Sicarius, the captain of the second company of the Ultramarines, standing in the center of this unit, the expression on his face was still bright.

"Long time no see, personal bodyguard." Wei Mu waved his hand and greeted the other party.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, young man." Sicarius also responded with proper etiquette.

As the top swordsman of the Ultramarines and the most trusted heir of the original body, Cato Sicarius has an arrogant temperament, and can even be said to be a little frivolous.

Very few have been able to get his approval.

However, with the news of the victory of the Maelstrom Expedition, even he couldn't help but think a little highly of the mortals in front of him.

Although this kid still doesn't seem to be doing anything right

"I noticed that there seemed to be a lot fewer guests on the ship, did something happen?" After a brief greeting, Wei Mu opened his mouth to ask about his doubts.

"If you're referring to the group of [pointy-eared guests], most of them said goodbye to the Glory of Macurag a few months ago, and the actions of the Aeldari are always mysterious and unpredictable. Maybe the original knows what's going on, and you can ask him directly later. Sicarius replied.

"I see." Wei Mu was also going to talk to Link, but now it seemed that he could only give up for the time being, so he turned to ask, "What about the original body?" ”

"Still enthusiastic about the cause of fighting the enemies of the empire, the situation simply couldn't be better." Sicarius said, his tone filled with infinite respect.

There was nothing wrong with such an inquiry, but it made Wei Mu feel like he was in an ancient court.

The emperor would summon the ministers to discuss matters, and the eunuchs would guide the ministers and inform them, and the ministers would bribe the personal eunuchs to ask about the emperor's situation, so that they could have a better response when they were in the audience.

If Killiman was the emperor and he was the minister he was summoned, then Sicarius would have had to reluctantly assume the role of eunuch.

Thinking of this, Wei Mu almost couldn't help laughing again.

If there really is such a thing as a merit book, he will probably have a large amount of merit deducted because of it.

"It seems that every time you see me, you are in a good mood?" Sicarius looked at Vimu carefully, his eyes seemed to flash with a sharp knife light.

Of course, he could tell which ones were genuinely happy and which ones were malicious smirks.

It's just that the personal guard officer doesn't understand what this kid is making up in his own brain, and why he always likes to target him.

Sicarius was good at dealing with the other Space Marine brothers, and a duel of honor would solve almost any problem between them, but a similar approach would not work for Vimu, which made him a little frustrated.

"No, nothing. Hurry up and let's go and meet the Primordial. Wei Mu waved his hand weakly, and hurriedly tried to fool the past.

Although Sicarius did not like this, the victory brought by Vimu was a lot of good news for Killiman, and it was rare for the empire to have such good news.

Putting the original body first in everything is his primary duty.

"I'm glad you didn't disappoint him." Sicarius nodded, and then ordered his men to make way for them.

"I hope so." Wei Mu was a little unsure, and at the moment when the door was pushed open, he opened his mouth again and reminded left and right, "Later, if the situation is not right, let's withdraw first and leave some space for them, understand?" ”

The Great Sage Kaul knew what he meant, and nodded slightly.

Since he had simulated it with Killiman, he probably knew how violently the Ultramarines would react when they learned of the existence of Clone Fugan.

Morlock was puzzled by this.

The leader of the Minotaur warband glanced at Fugen in purple armor vigilantly, and could guess that the situation was probably due to this person.

Fogen himself was silent, and has behaved as he has been since he boarded the Macurag.

In this way, the group slowly walked into the hall with the reports they needed to submit.
