Warhammer Inquisitor

Chapter 395 Expedition Road: We will all find our way home

Reina had forgotten how long it had been since she had seen the starry sky, the real starry sky, not the artificial night sky in the network, but now Reina was sure that the starlight she was bathing in was the real star, a piece of it. real universe.

The captain raised her head and looked up at the bright Milky Way above her head and sighed. She could feel the warm starlight in the Milky Way. The memories came like a tide. Everything in the past was something she thought she had forgotten. All the memories were recalled, and they were re-turned from every corner of the mind.

The memories of sailing under the stars seemed to be just yesterday. When she was in the net, she mistakenly thought that it was just a long dream, but now, the dream has become reality, and all the memories in the net, As if it was just a long dream, and now she is still awake.

Lena took a long breath. She opened her eyes and pressed it on the communication interface at hand, "Astral Whisperer, are you sure of our location? Can the Emperor's light bathe us?"

"The light of hope shakes like a candle in the wind, the storm engulfs all the light, darkness! Only darkness exists in the night sky, and we have become blind travelers!"

"Speak Gothic, Star Whisperer." Lena said speechlessly. Every time she spoke to Star Whisperer, her head was swollen. The emperor personally selected, and received the training of the beloved emperor, how to say it is always so strange?

It looks like Lena doesn't know, but in fact, this may be part of the Emperor's training, after all, you know, the Emperor himself is a riddler who can never speak human words and insist on giving you all kinds of metaphors, press Vito's speech, pretending to be a magic stick.

The communication channel was silent for a while, but quickly reopened, "We are trying our best to find any available information, Captain, but the storm is shrouded in the void, and the light of the star torch is flickering, so we can't accurately judge us. The only thing I can be sure of with my Astral Whisperers is that we have returned to the Empire."

"That's enough, go ahead and collect all the information you can find, and, next time, speak human."

Lena suddenly turned off the communicator. She frowned and looked up at the beautiful but deadly night sky of the Milky Way. The warp has not subsided after [-] years?This is not good news.

"Is there any danger in warp navigation?" Lena immediately asked again, she must immediately grasp the information in the universe as soon as possible, and update the ancient route data that has expired for [-] years.

Bird Buchang stared at the screen in front of her, his finger quickly slid on it to unlock the information, and a light flashed on Bird Buchang's long mechanical prosthetic eye, and she turned to the captain above. respond.

"The navigator has surveyed the warp situation and praised the beloved Emperor. Although the storm still exists, Geller's position can still ensure our safety in it, and we can jump."

"Very good, use all methods to determine our position, try the star map to analyze the starry sky, and determine the position." "As ordered, captain."

Reina's order was immediately implemented. Bird Buchang turned around and started work. The data screen in front of him quickly skipped a large number of parameters. Reina also waved her finger in front of him. The holographic image generator above his head Immediately, a holographic projection screen was projected.

The captain looked at the large star maps that were constantly flashing in front of him. Those star maps were constantly matching with the starry sky outside the window, but there was no tangent. Lena was annoyed at the star maps that kept turning red and gave a low warning sound in front of him. He held his chin, but this is not surprising, after all, [-] years have passed, and the star map on the ship has long since expired.

It seems that there is one more problem that needs to be solved. After finding the star port of the empire or any friendly ships, Reina must ask the mechanical priest to update these outdated data as soon as possible.

But just as Lena was thinking about this, a star map without error suddenly flashed in front of her. The holographic starry sky overlapped with the night sky outside, and a delightful green spectrum flashed on it.

Leina was startled and immediately pushed forward on the armrest. She looked down at the bird below, "The star map matches, identify it immediately!"

"As ordered, Captain, the contemplative person is scanning." Bird Bu Chang said, and quickly tapped the screen with his long modified mechanical fingers, and his head also kept jumping between multiple complex display windows. The data cable he was holding was also constantly shaking in the air as his head turned.

Bird Buchang's eyes flickered again, and he looked at the screen in front of him and replied, "The system has completed the identification. According to the calculation of the navigation system, we are on the northern frontier of Terra, a galaxy called Cadia. ."

"Cadia?" Lena frowned slightly. She pondered for a moment and searched for information about Cadia in her mind. If she remembered correctly, Cadia should be an obscure border galaxy during the Great Crusade. Near the Eye of Terror at the northernmost tip of the Milky Way, only a stable route remains due to the interference of abnormal celestial phenomena and warp space nearby.

This makes the empire less interested in the dangerous star field that may be cut off by the storm at any time, resulting in isolation from the mainland of the empire. It is inaccessible all the year round, and only a few scientific research ships will shuttle here to study those abnormal star phenomena, but all this is also It was stopped by the Emperor himself after the Mikaya meeting, and since then this place has been completely reduced to a no-man's land without information.

Lena held her chin, thought for a while and then raised her head to look at the dangerous night sky outside, "This is approaching the Eye of Fear, according to the marshal, although the rebellion has already ended, the traitors hiding in it and Their Chaos allies have not stopped invading the Imperium."

"Fire control officer, put all weapons on standby, the shields can be charged at any time, and the whole ship is on alert and ready to fight at any time!" Lena turned to the side of the bridge and clenched her fists and ordered loudly, sitting on the edge In the middle of the fire control group, the fire control officer with a military cap nodded immediately, and then explained to the subordinates on both sides.

With their work, Reina saw a flashing shield outside the window. The shield was faintly flickering and put the entire battleship under protection, which made Reina feel a lot easier, at least now this giant The ship is ready for battle, just as it was [-] years ago.

"Boss Bird, we need supplies and rest, look for any identifiable imperial units, star ports, planets or any signal nearby, and find loyalists."

"Yes, Captain, let's do it." Chief Bird said, turning his head full of cables, and began to control the system with his own thoughts, and the machine servant beside him immediately began to hum in a low voice, as stiff as if Like the echoes of the sonar, the echoes echoed below Lena again and again.

The captain raised his head and looked around at the night sky, and Yeta leaned up beside him. She held a cup of coffee in her hand and handed it to the captain. The latter took it and took a sip. Yeta stood at her. He looked around in surprise at the night sky around him.

"As Dad said, this place is really beautiful, even more beautiful than I imagined." "Don't just look at the beauty on the surface, there are also many dangers hidden in it. This night sky was full of dangers in the past, and even more after the rebellion. turned into a seafaring purgatory."

Lena was talking and drinking coffee, letting the caffeine stimulate her brain and wake her up again, but Yeta was no longer nervous at all. She leaned on the armrest and looked out the window with joy. shining night sky.

"Then let the war come. We are all ready. After decades of training, we will use a war to test us." Yeta said confidently, Lena behind her glanced at her slightly smiled, but suddenly the two of them were interrupted, and scarlet alarms lit up above their heads.

Lena immediately put the coffee cup on the armrest, and he strode over to the armrest to look at the source of the alarm below, "Report the situation, immediately."

Sitting with his head raised, a piercing siren sounded from the horn in his abdomen, the bird chief beside the servant, looked at the screen in front of him with his face illuminated by the warning red light, "We have received a signal from the Imperial Navy, although The other party's ship information is not within our identification range, but the communication specifications and internal information are completely consistent with ours, and the identity of the friendly force can be determined."

Lena frowned. He and Yeta, who was beside him, looked at each other. The latter nodded immediately and strode down the stairs of the bridge and returned to the bottom. Lena took a deep breath and affirmed to Chief Bird. nod.

"Come in." "Yes, Captain."

With the light keyboard, Leina immediately jumped in front of a jittery audio signal, but the revolving identification mark on it was undoubtedly the Imperial Navy's, and what came from it was not the sound of the machine servant's soulless broadcast, but The voice of a leader as strong as steel.

"I am the Emperor's Gothic Fleet, Captain of the Retribution-class battleship "The Emperor's Wrath", and Admiral Speyer, Commander of the Gothic Fleet, and my fleet and I are engaged in an exchange of fire with the Chaos Black Crusade invasion fleet , I, the emperor's admiral, call in the name of the emperor all the imperial fleets who hear this news to respond, no matter what faction you belong to, we will smash the spearheads of the destruction of the enemy side by side!"

"Assembly point 114889/0234, all ships come here to meet, for the empire, for the imperial navy!"

With that cry, Speyer's voice ended in the communication band, Rena looked at the disappearing audio, her eyes looked down, and everyone in the bridge below heard the call With a sound, he turned his head to look at their captain and waited for an order.

"Fire control officer, the weapon array is charged, the void shield is lit, and the battle alarm is sounded."

"Yes, Captain!"

"Master Bird, lock the signal source, raise the Geller stand shield, and the whole ship is ready to jump into the battlefield."

"Received, Captain."

Lena stood up and looked down at the communication frequency band beside her with her head held high, her fingers slid gently on it, and the Mechanicist's logo appeared on it, "Father, make sure the machine spirit is stable, and prepare to step into the battlefield. ."

"We will unleash the wrath of the Omega Messiah and are performing the awakening procedure."

Lena walked past the holographic communication channel after speaking, and she roared at everyone below on the armrest, "Get ready for battle!"

As soon as Leina finished speaking, an alarm sounded all around. He looked at the holographic interface on the side under the flashing red light. The captain put his hand on it and clicked on the symbol of the lightning eagle.

The lower landing deck of the Emperor's Dream is inaccessible. There is a large space that is not inferior to any deck, but it is particularly deserted. There are only a few active soulless servants on the entire wide plane, walking around with stiff steps. Clean and maintain equipment.

They were doing their hard work silently, not paying any attention to the burly giant who passed behind him. Soulless worker.

If they were mortals, they must have made a fuss about their appearance by now, and the sound of their reactions would quickly attract all thinking people on all decks, corridors, and stairs around, then Magnus' small plan to leave quietly went bankrupt.

And now, apart from these servitors who can't think, let alone understand, and will only silently complete all the given tasks, there is only one person on this deck to see off Magnus, and they pass through the wide parking deck together. .

"Are you sure you want to leave now? Or leave quietly." asked the man beside Magnus who was walking beside him. The crimson Cyclops nodded slightly, and he walked with the man under the spotlight. On the bright deck, he strode to the distant deck position.

There was a lone Thunderhawk parked there. The huge fighter plane used by the Space Marines stood silently under the lights. The entire huge fuselage was flashing with reflections. One side is shifted out, which makes it even more massive.

In Lei Ying Ban, stood two or three servants who refueled them. They dragged the thick oil pipeline with their stiff elbows, and stood under the shadows expressionlessly looking at the rumbling oil pipeline in front of them. He didn't pay attention to the approaching Magnusu and the people around him.

"I think it's best for me to go now, Vito, before the people on the boat find out that I'm a traitor and cause you trouble, just disappear quietly."

Magnus said with a self-deprecating smile, he turned his head to look at Raikage's wide exit deck, where the heavy hatch had been lifted, revealing a shining starry sky, a real starry sky.

"And we are still back in the physical universe. Soon you will meet people from the empire, then it is even more inappropriate for me to be here. You know how much trouble it will bring."

Magnus said, the people following him also stopped, he lowered his head and smiled and put his hands on his waist, he took a few steps forward and stood still, "Traitor, heresy, devil, the most shameless Betrayer, have I missed something?"

"The bastard who betrayed the Emperor." Magnus walked to the hatch that Thunder Eagle had put down, and while standing there watching inwardly, he seemed to laugh at himself.

"That's all." Vito muttered with a smile, then raised his eyes and glanced at the servants who finished the fuel filling and pulled out the fuel pipe. They carried the fuel pipe and took a stiff step. Walking to the side step by step, the automatic fuel transporter parked on the side also turned on the headlights, turned backward and drove away from the scene.

Soon there were only the two of them left here, Vito sighed long, raised his eyes and looked at the person at the door of the cabin, "Magnus, do you really want to go back? Back to the warp? You can left."

"No, Vito, there is no place for me in the current empire. I am a traitor to everyone, and I will not try to change their minds." Magnus said as he walked to the door of the cabin, he He bent down slightly and stood at the door to light up the smart control window on the side, and checked the fuel data on it. Although he didn't actually need to fly back to the Eye of Terror, he could just land on a random planet nearby, open the portal and go back. All right.

But Magnus was still watching. The click of his thick fingers on the screen was very incongruous and seemed meaningless. Vito looked at the meaningless action and raised his head slightly with a frown. Eye Magnus.

He also glanced out of the corner of his eye, and then seemingly casually pointed to the Milky Way outside the window. Vito also looked at it. He immediately saw the flickering in the night sky, tearing apart the background of the Milky Way. Eye.

Vito knew what Magnus meant, he had now returned to the physical universe, Tzeentch had noticed him, and the evil god held his other half soul and could monitor his thoughts and words at any time, so what he could now Everything you do can only be a metaphor and a metaphor.

Magnus nodded slightly to Vito, then walked into the cabin, Vito stood under the light and looked at Magnus inside, "If you find your place one day, remember, I You are welcome back at any time, and no matter how much hostility and prejudice you have to face, I will be here waiting for you."

"If you need help, you know that the district is looking for me." Vito said, putting his hands on his chest seemingly unintentionally, and patted his heart seemingly casually. Magnus looked at the action. Expressionless, but responded to Vito with a wink and a look below.

Magnus pressed the button of the cabin door. He turned and walked into the depths of the cabin. The door behind him also slowly lifted up and quickly closed in the locking anchor point above. With a sigh The hatch is closed.

Vito looked at the ignited Thunder Eagle, the jet nozzles burned violently, and the raging flames were sprayed on the ground and flew up. The strong thruster airflow blew Vito's clothes. He looked up at the detachment from the ground. After the landing gear slowly retracted into the fuselage, the nose turned to the fighter jet in the direction of the hatch.

The Thunder Eagle accelerated in an instant, shot out a huge tongue of flame and flew out of the deck. It drilled into the dark galaxy and whistled towards the curtain of the Eye of Terror.

Vito walked to the deck door. He stood at the edge of the cliff connected to the icy void and watched the departing fighter plane. Behind him, Lilith appeared silently from nowhere. Footsteps without any sound came to Vito.

"He's gone." "Yes, it's obvious, isn't it? It will take a long time for the Thunder Eagle to fly back to Terra." "Well, the question is, has he already flown on that route?"

Lilith glanced at Vito, who was on the side with a smile, and a smile appeared on the corner of Vito's mouth, "I think yes, we have all found our way home, and he is coming soon."

Lilith looked at Vito and snorted softly, standing beside Vito with her arms in her arms, but at the same time he smiled, scarlet warning lights flashed across the deck.

He turned his head and looked at the servitors who were walking towards the periphery of the deck in the flashing red light. They used their rigid bodies to walk towards the gate as fast as possible, and the faster fuel trucks had already entered. out of it, escaping into the long corridor amid the flickering siren.

"The whole ship is ready for battle, repeat, all parts of the whole ship are ready for battle."

During the broadcast, the icy Servant announcer mechanically repeated that sentence in a stiff voice with no temperature. Vito raised his head and looked in the direction of the speaker above his head, but soon his attention was drawn closer. sound attracted.

Vito raised his arm and clicked the flashing red light on his wrist, and Rena's holographic bust flashed on the hologram, and she nodded to Vito.

"Marshal, we have received a signal for help. The Gothic fleet of the Imperial Navy is in a fierce battle with Chaos. Admiral Speyer, the fleet commander, is calling all the imperial units around for support. I have ordered the whole ship to prepare to jump in and come to the ship. Bridge, my lord."

Vito smiled and turned his head to glance at the Milky Way outside the window, then turned his head to look at Reina with a joking smile, "Welcome back, Captain, the Empire welcomes you."
