124 The commander of the second company and the commander of the second company are of the same sex
Not to mention the information that the sons of the Emperor of the Spell had read from the waves of subspace that might have happened, but had not yet happened. Instead of these illusory things, it is better to talk about some more practical issues, such as-
Cato Sicarius hasn't been happy lately.
To be exact, it was the three days since the end of the First World War in northern Taylos, which was not very happy.
It all started when he didn't have anything to gain in this battle...... No, that's not the point. It stands to reason that he shouldn't have any opinion on his work itself. No Space Marine should have a problem with their work itself. If you go back to the roots, he really doesn't have a problem with his work itself β in part, the colleague he currently works with on the mission.
Ionid Hill, an Ultramariner during the Great Expedition 10,000 years ago, was the first second company commander after the legion was restructured into a warband, and the first "Lord of the Watch".
In short, he doesn't like each other very much. Even if the original once told them that "among Ultramarines, the tradition of 'painting the helmet red' originally represented shame and punishment, but the wisdom and bravery of Hill of the Red Helmet turned this act into a symbol of honor."
He felt that such thoughts were actually common among his colleagues. There are a number of reasons for this: first, his existence is not quite rightβalthough the Cursed Binding Army, which appeared on the battlefield out of thin air, did solve the urgent need; Although the director of the think tank, Diglas, can prove that the rituals took place entirely within the Cathedral of Tyros, and that there was no element of chaos, blasphemy, or disloyalty; Although the Imperial's Dream kept a registered list of all the "legal witchcraft" that the Chaldean Authority could exercise, this summoning ritual was prominently listed; But that doesn't change the fact that they exist ...... "not very scientific".
In some obscurant, uncivilized areas, people may believe that when their hometowns are in crisis, there will be deceased heroes and warriors from history who will return from the mists of death to help them protect their homeland as guardian spirits. It's a brutal ancestor worship or ancestral spirit belief that any Ultramariner should be able to justifiably say until reality punches them all in the face.
The Anglican was delighted, believing it to be evidence that "the emperor had sent warriors to help his son." However, in comparison, it was obviously the matter of "the emperor himself appearing and capturing the demon primordial" that made them even more excited...... Far from it.
Not to mention how many obstacles the state religion has added to the Imperial Regency in just two days, and speaking of Ionid Hill, also a product of witchcraft based on the souls of the dead, the other Cursed Ultramarines are well aware of the fact that they are not part of the current composition of the warband. They only requested a small area as a temporary station, and they obediently set up camp under the direction of the first warband leader, Marius Gage.
According to themselves, after the waves of the subspace formed by the Emperor's presence slowly subsided, they would naturally leave and return to where they were supposed to be. They can only stay in the real world for a range of seven to thirteen days, and they can't do work that is very much focused on continuity, but they are welcome to come and communicate with members of the current generation of Ultramarines and sub-groups in their spare time. In addition to some of the work that the Primordials decided to assign to them, they were also consciously not dictating to the current running of the warband. The only thing these people did was to try to prepare a feast with the genogen before any of them had to leave.
- But Ionid Hill is not like the others!
Ever since he appeared on the battlefield, he's been glued to the Original. He did find a way to stop the original body from going to the next battlefield in person; It is also true that he has proposed some theoretical templates for similar situations that seem to work, but still need to be verified in practice; Indeed, one or two of them were used to convince the original in the past two days not to go too close to the front line, and not to meet directly with Conrad Coetzes, who was obviously not very mentally stable-
- But that doesn't mean that he, as a dead person who is not in the current establishment, is right to squeeze into the Primordial Escort so aggressively, dangling around him in front of the Primordial with a red helmet on his head, and pointing at the decisions made by the Primordial himself from time to time!
The most infuriating thing is that the original body acquiesced to all this, and obviously liked him very much! I'll even make time to chat with him!
Although he had to admit that the first Lord of the Watch played a positive role in the protection of the Primordial, and even he was still helping the other party, trying to form a guide book on these proven or unproven theoretical models without the Primordial's knowledge, Cato Lemon Sicarius still did not like Ionid Hill.
And he was sure that the latter had realized this, because Hill asked him very bluntly: "You seem to have some opinion about me, brother?" β
Stunned, Sicarius jerked his head away with unnecessarily speed, looking at the person who was speaking. Instead of wearing his trademark red helmet, Ionid Hill was now exposed to his scarred face, allowing Sicarius to recognize another fact he didn't really like: that he was very similar to him.
Not in terms of facial features or physiognomy, although they all have almost the same short blonde hair and azure sclera, but some deeper, more indescribable, more sensual ......
After a brief trade-off, Sicarius decided to be honest with himself and others: "Yes. I don't like you very much. But I thought, I'm not so unprofessional as to let my emotions affect my work? β
"Of course you don't." Hill said briskly, "I'm just a little curious about it. I know that I've never been the most likable type of person in the Legion, but I don't think I've done anything nasty in the few days we've known each other, have I? β
Sicarius adjusted his gaze so that his expression could more appropriately express the feeling of "anger": "Didn't you? β
ββ¦β¦ Do I have one? β
Hill was apparently stopped by the rhetorical question. He showed a thoughtful expression after a moment of stunnedness, thought like this for more than a second, and then spoke again: "I'm pretty sure that what I've done in the past two days is no different from what I did when I was alive?" β
The word "in life" reminds Sicarius once again that the "thing" he is facing that seems to be an Ultramarine, is essentially a monster from subspace. The thought of resurfacing made him wink for a moment, and then he turned to spurn his undetermined and weak self, suppressed all thoughts that were not relevant to the topic, and continued to glare at Ciel:
"Didn't you?" He repeated the half-sentence, but it meant something completely different from the previous one, "Have you done things so unorthodoxically in the past?" β
Sicarius can guarantee that among the original body guards who have seen the whole process in the past few days, only talking about the Ultramarines, there will be more than eighty percent of people who have the same opinion as him. But Ionid Hill, in the face of this accusation, only unconsciously tilted his head in confusion:
"What are you talking about? Brothers? β
Apparently, he was completely unaware of the problem, and took everything he had done for granted.
This made Sicarius even angrier.
Miwoo (six o'clock)
This chapter is written about how there is a kind of writing ancient sayings, Wan Wan Qing, what should I do if Bai Yueguang lives as a stand-in, Mama Rong is going to give you rules today...... The feeling of that kind of thing (covering the face).
I kind of like to write about that kind of thing, but I also don't think it should be in this worldview...... Sicarius, do you have any clues?
