Warhammer Inquisitor

Chapter 657 Doomsday Storm: Humans are always lying
The mechanical red light flickered on the dim mechanical surface. Its red light was like the beam of a lighthouse, and it kept sweeping across the huge, dirty and sticky mechanical surface. It was a garbage shredder, not seen here. The underground is working day and night, disposing of garbage for the citizens above.

The gate rumbled and squeezed inward, throwing the shattered wreckage out of the rapidly rotating knife edge. Accompanied by that roaring sound, all the surrounding noises seemed to be suppressed so that no one could notice it. People on high platforms.

He looked down at the trash grinder, its broken remains being thrown into the fire pit below, where it sank away in industrial-grade heat erupting from the grid.

"It's really a good place to get things done, isn't it?", "As you said, master." Eva appeared from behind the door in a tight leather jacket, and she patted the little bits of debris off her body, and they slid off Going down, the grid under your feet fell from both sides of the folding nerve poison blade.

The fire pit is waiting for these things below, Vito looked at her and smiled, and went up to take off the garbage bag on her head, "Next time I have to go through the normal passage, it would be a sin to go down the sewer with such a lovely lady .”, “Just fast enough, master, we don’t have much time.”

Yes, not many, although there are many differences between the assassination parlor and the court of justice, for example, one hides in the dark, while the other walks under the light, but they both inherit the same characteristic of the founder, decisive strikes, The speed is extremely fast, and one sentence is extremely cruel.

The latter is also for the sake of speed. The judges believe that if the question can be solved by torture, there is no need to waste time dragging it to the interrogation room. Just come on the spot. The same is true for any question. , Therefore, those agricultural planets should not survive Macragge when the sun sets tomorrow, and other things are the same. After dawn, the Hera Conference will be held.

"I'm in a hurry, so let's talk next time, come with me." After saying that, Vito turned and walked along the platform, pressing his hand on the railing of the iron fence, and silently go ahead.

Eva, who was really silent, followed him without saying a word, just like a maid following her master. They crossed the platform and walked to the end not far away. Constant breathing, at least, she thought it was constant.

"Ask whatever you want to ask. Your breathing is messed up. I know you have something on your mind." Vito said without looking back. Eva turned her head back after thinking for a moment. Keeping eye contact, even if he wasn't looking at himself at all.

"My lord, you asked me to send assassins to the palace, not to spy on the activities of the imperial army, right? But..." "To spy on the emperor, yes." After Vito said, the fire pit below spurted out The blazing flames, the sound of hot fuel igniting in the air almost drowned out his words, but Eva could hear them clearly.

The female assassin was wearing a mask, so she couldn't see the face underneath her, but the firelight shone on her mask, making the shadow cover half of her face, "My lord, I thought you and him..."

"Brothers? Yes, Eva, we are brothers, at least I think so." Vito stopped at the end, he turned and opened the door of the workshop, his whole face flashed Under the firelight, only the eyebrows are arched, and the eyes are hidden in the darkness, "But between brothers, not everything is connected, there will be quarrels, fights, and even worse."

Vito walked in, and the long shadow drawn by the door in the flames temporarily blocked his body, Eva followed in, watching Vito go down from the top of the stairs, he walked step by step. into the dark.

Eva followed and walked down the narrow underground pipeline stairs. There was no light here, only the deepest darkness shrouded in it, and the sound of the fire wind and the garbage disintegrator gradually disappeared behind her. Walking up the stairs, a bright light came from ahead.

The light was actually not bright, but in the absolutely dark environment, it was still very shining. Eva walked down and looked at Vito who was standing in front of the next staircase. He turned his head to look at Eva, He raised his head to indicate that she would continue to ask if she wanted to.

"My lord, there is one thing I don't understand. Why do you want to investigate the behavior of the Emperor? Could it be that you..." Eva asked in a low voice, but she was sure that Vito could hear it clearly. This is an absolutely dead place, any sound, will be multiplied.

Vito didn't answer her. Instead, he snorted and walked down the steps. Eva followed him and walked up the second step with him. Below is a narrow road, and beside it is the sewage flowing of the canal.

Vito rolled over, and after falling into the water, he raised his hand to signal Eva, who turned over without thinking. Although she was a woman, she was not an upper-class woman, not even an indecent and ordinary one.

So Vito didn't help him. After seeing Eva jumping down, he stepped on the sewage and walked down the ditch. Eva followed behind. Yes, any sound here will be amplified very loudly, so when Vito suddenly spoke, the words came to his ears immediately.

"Do you remember what I told you? Human beings are always lying. When they open their mouths, they lie. If they don't open their mouths, they are thinking lies in their hearts. They even deceived themselves."

Vito said, walking in front without looking back, only the sound of dripping water was around him, as a calm spectator, and Eva, and he continued, "This is what a friend of mine told me. My female friend, she is right, I actually knew it a long time ago, but people in our business are either silent or lying, and sometimes even deceive themselves."

"Did you believe him?", "Yeah, I believed it, I really believed it, we all believed it.", "And now?" Eva asked, Vito stopped, he looked up to the top of the sewer pipe, where drops of water dripped, causing ripples on the surface of the water.

"I still want to believe in him. I've believed in him all my life. I'm old. Old people don't like to doubt what they believe in all their lives." Vito said, stepping on the curb and jumping up the steps beside the wall. I fumbled, "When Horus came to me, he told me that he was deceiving everyone and everything. I think he was lying. He said that he would abandon everyone and become a god for his own self-interest. I don't believe it. He has no selfish intentions. .”

As he spoke, he seemed to have found the thing, and then he snapped it off, and the wall on the side slowly slid back, "Many people have told me that he is not what he looks like, but I don't believe it .”

Eva followed, jumped into the open door, and followed Vito through the narrow and dark gap. He slipped through in front and entered a large open space, and Eva followed out. , Looking around the wide underground space, countless pillars stand here, supporting the sky and the earth.

They are gradually submerged in the darkness all around, extending towards distant and invisible places, until they disappear at the limit of the field of vision of the assassin's mask night vision device. How big is this place?Eva looked around, she was not a psyker, but she felt that the space here seemed a little abnormal.

The darkness and the ground grow almost endlessly, reaching the end of the earth, or should I ask is there really an end here?But Vito got up and walked into the darkness.

"I believed him, really, not many things I've ever believed in in my life, and he was one of the few, and he could even get rid of one, even after I finally found out, he borrowed those things that he promised me he wouldn't use After cooperating with the forces that promised me that they would never compromise, I still chose to believe in him, and after screwing up everything because of all this, I still chose to believe in him.”

"Why? My lord." Eva asked softly, and Vito smiled, "Because he promised me one thing and only one thing, as long as he still does it, I can still lie to myself in my heart, lie to myself Trust that what he is going to do is the right thing to do."

Eva fell silent, and she followed Vito through the stone pillars. The man walked in front, and his figure became blurred in the darkness. After a while, Eva asked in a low voice, "What is it, sir."

"Protect all mankind.", "Didn't he fulfill this promise? Without him, without him and his light, mankind would have disappeared into the endless night.", "My child, sometimes, I I wish I could be like you guys, know nothing, and be really happy sometimes."

As Vito said, the edges of his body were gradually shrouded in a circle of light. Eva's eyes under the mask narrowed slightly, and then after Vito stopped, she walked out from him and saw the machine parked in front of her. The thing in the center of the stone pillar is a train, an old and antiquated track train.

It does not belong to the present time and space, the number painted on its body does not belong to the current numbering method, and the posters and newspapers pasted on its glass all represent a distant time and space.

Vito looked at those newspapers and posters of strippers and laughed, "We are indeed of the same age, but his taste is worse, it's a pity we met so late, also, so late, otherwise I would have Take him to the red-light district of the City of Thousand Planets."

He opened the door of the carriage, the rusted door seemed to have heard a call, woke up from a long sleep, creaked and slowly opened, Vito bent down and got in, turned on the switch at hand, the incandescent The lamp came on with a dull hiss.

This is an ancient room, which has the functions of laboratory, living and living. The top was covered with dust, and Vito wiped off the dust with his hand, revealing the Cosmic Eagle logo below.

"Very well, it seems that he didn't use it up at the time." Vito said and knocked on the barometer on the pipe, and Eva followed in, looking around, "What is this place? Or should I ask, Who is the master here?"

"A friend, very old, very old friend," Vito said, unscrewing the valve, and pointing in Eva's direction, "turn that switch on, hopefully, when he poisoned the spearhead, he left Some."

Eva turned on the switch, and as expected, liquid began to emerge from the pipe, and bubbles rolled between them, rushing towards a certain direction along the surrounding pipes, Vito raised his hands, and all the switches around him swung After getting down, all the valves were opened, and the whole sleeping train suddenly woke up.

"My lord, what are these things?", "The things of secret religion, I and his kind, but they have long since disappeared, only me and him are left, and the knowledge and secrets they have mastered." Vito As he spoke, he pulled out the Phoenix Sword from his waist, holding the hilt with his mechanical arm, "When he cleaned them up, he told me that what they told was all lies, and the knowledge they had, they, were all A scum in league with Chaos."

"But I saw him. He sacrificed himself to save Walken, gave up his eternal life, and fell into the abyss. So, people... really lie all the time."

Vito cut his arm, blood dripped in the liquid, a reaction began and ended, and the venom called Godkiller was conceived.
