Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 2 Between Peers
"So, you just brought him back?"

After waking up, Aldeline and Cassin sat side by side in a corner of the rear cabin of the assault boat.

Lying at his feet was Calvin, still unconscious, with his hands and feet shackled.

In this agricultural world with twice the standard gravity, it can grow to a height of more than 1.9 meters and a weight of more than 100 kilograms.

In terms of physical talent alone, Calvin can be regarded as one in a million.

And this is precisely one of the reasons why Ka Xin, who is not wearing power armor, dislikes him the most. After all, it took her a lot of effort to move this cub to the Thunderhawk.

The Thunderhawk assault boat is not very noisy when it is not performing assault missions, and there is no other sound in the quiet cabin except for the uniform hum of the engine.

But contrary to this quiet environment, the communication between the two captain nuns was very "enthusiastic".

All human beings have the desire to communicate, and Sister Silence is no exception.

The silent nuns also gossip among themselves, but after taking the vow of silence, they can only communicate in sign language.

And this way of communication has some natural concealment and exclusion.

Do not believe?Right now it is:
"So, you just brought him back?"

"Otherwise? His psychic power has clearly awakened. Letting go of it is a blasphemy against our duties!"

"My sister Cassin, look at the ring on his hand. This is a nobleman! The governor of the planet and the Senate will ask us to give a reasonable explanation."

"So what? Sister Aldeline! We are the Emperor's Claws, and we are under no obligation to explain our actions to mortals!"

"However, the old Emperor has been sleeping for a long time... Without his protection, we cannot arrest a noble at will, let alone bring unnecessary pressure to the lady."

"Sister Silence's actions need not be explained to anyone! We have never been responsible to the Emperor!"

"But the broken armor on your body needs...

You also need a weapon without bullets in your hand..."

"Goo~~"

The aggrieved Sister Cassin was speechless and had no choice but to turn her head away.Especially after the stomach makes an inappropriate noise...

"Look, your hungry belly looks like it needs to..."

Sister Aldeline, who was still a little sluggish, didn't miss this opportunity, and quietly made up the last knife.

…………

Jiang Wen had a long, long dream.

He dreamed that he graduated from college, joined the army, got promoted, and got married.

Then during a military exercise, he was injured.

Being disabled, he can't stay in the army he loves, so he can only choose to change jobs.

The procedures for leaving the team came down quickly, and the procedures for changing jobs must not be too slow.

The night before he left, he sat in the dormitory with the head of the group and his old class leader, and wept at each other for a whole night...

The next day, the chief of staff of the division who came from the military headquarters after a meeting, and his old company commander, gave him another option: the logistics personnel of the troops at the plateau training ground.

Although he didn't want to bother the old leader, what could he do when he entered the society with that useless leg?

The high pension makes him not have to worry about life.

But young people who are less than 30 years old are full-blooded young people, so they can enter retirement life early like this?

This is tantamount to announcing the death of his life...

Stay on the training ground, although it is impossible to have the opportunity to return to the front line.

But at least, he can still see the place where he used to sweat every day - the place where he worked hard to break through the limit countless times, the unit he once dreamed of returning to the Blowing Horn Company!

In the dream, Jiang Wen accepted the job and worked for 30 years.

From youth to old age, from young ginger to old ginger, from squad leader to old squad leader.

After the recruits of the year were all discharged from the army and changed jobs, no one knew him anymore.

Lao Jiang became Lao Jiang, and he couldn't even hear a word from the old squad leader.

The recruits who often go to the shooting range for rotation training know that there is an old man Jiang in the shooting range who smiles all day long and is very kind.

And every recruit who has just left the company for the first time on duty at night is also looking forward to the chicken soup that Lao Jiang sent to the night post as usual, it is really delicious...

During the day, Lao Jiang is always smiling, as if nothing can trouble him.

The recruits are also willing to complain to this old Jiang who doesn't make small reports, complain about the difficulty of training, and say a few words of their own.

But who knows how envious Old Jiang secretly is of these recruits...

And who knows how many times Lao Jiang's eyes got wet every night when he watched his lame leg fall asleep...

Fast forward another 15 years, and Lao Jiang has already retired.

Old Jiang in the rest center was still smiling all day long. Among the stubborn veterans, he was the one who was easy to talk to.

But he knew in his heart that he had never changed.

His burning heart, willing to defend his family and country, has never been cold.

In the blink of an eye, another 10 years.

The 75-year-old Jiang finally failed.

When he was dying, his wife and children stood outside the window of the ICU.

In the eyes he struggled to open, there was anxiety outside the window, worrying that his partner and children would be seen by him.

All his life, he had a harmonious family and filial sons and daughters.

Ordinarily, he shouldn't have any regrets.
But he just refused to accept it!

He lived a simple life all his life, and he never thought about achieving success in the worldly sense.

He really just wanted a chance to defend his family and country!
Jiang Wen, whose breathing was getting harder and harder, knew that his time was running out.

The doctor asked the family members to come in and wait for his last last words, but he was satisfied enough to say nothing to the family members.

But when he saw the comrades who came to see him off for the last time, he still tried his best to squeeze out his last breath from his shriveled lungs:

"kill!!!"

No matter how long the journey is, there is an end.

After a 40-minute flight, the nuns finally arrived at the starting point of their mission: a black spaceship docked in orbit and flying synchronously-the Wanderlust.

"kill!!!!"

"boom!"

The heavy imperial boots made a "friendly" contact with the young man's head.

Jiang Wen, who just woke up, fainted again...

Obviously, Sister Cassin, who was in a bad mood because of the exhortation from her senior, was a little too harsh on the source of the trouble.

But no matter what universe, women always have a little privilege in this regard.

So the naval staff who came to help with the transportation tacitly chose to ignore this small episode.

Definitely not because of 22.5mm bolt guns or anything, absolutely!
The glorious and heroic imperial navy is fearless even in the face of evil gods!

How could he succumb to the "little" threat of force in front of him?

As for the Seiko power sword and the Calgar-type flamethrower, let alone!

Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize again here: the heroic imperial navy will never bow to violence!

………………

The hangar gate slowly closed.

With the rapid recovery of gravity and air pressure on the deck, Ka Xin, who had just stepped off the Thunderhawk, saw the clerk who had been waiting by the side of the hangar:
A newly sworn nun, Natasha Goncharova.

"Ma'am ordered me to inform you, please go to her office on the first floor of the church behind the bridge, and she will wait for you there," said the clerk.

"I would like to obey the order. So, what about him?" After performing the eagle ceremony, Ka Xin kicked Jiang Wen next to him.

"Send it to the cell first, and wait for the hive to transmit his basic information.

According to the procedure, there will be further tests of purity waiting for him.

If there is no problem, after the grading report comes out, the lady will decide his next step. "

"Okay, let's go first"...

Jiang Wen, or Calvin.When he woke up, he regained consciousness shortly after being kicked unconscious.

The anti-strike ability brought by his bear-like body in this life and the tenacious will cultivated by the high-intensity training in the front-line troops for many years in his previous life all make his quick sobriety seem natural.

Calvin squinted his eyes and observed the surrounding environment. He needed to pretend to be unconscious to buy as much time as possible to recover his mobility, and at the same time, he was waiting for the servant to unshackle him.

The light and long breathing and gentle heartbeat made the servant who carried him and the guarding naval officer relax their vigilance.

The slight twitching of his limbs, which was too light to be seen, represented his attempt to get acquainted with the body that he took over 14 years later.

Perhaps in the next moment, Calvin, who found an opportunity to rage, would have a chance to grab a weapon.

That pistol-like thing on the waist of the naval officer who was a step away from Calvin looked very good.

Although the thing in front of me is two circles bigger than the pistol in the previous life, it is still full of strange sense of technology.

But compared to Jiang Wen, who was less than 1.8 meters tall in his previous life, Calvin is now the same shotgun, isn't he?
The key points of this thing are nothing more than a few, switch, safety, trigger, that's all, it's really not good, it's quite handy to use this weight as a hammer, right?perhaps?

The naval officer who had been silent at the side, after watching the two nuns leave, took out a tobacco-like thing and lit it, and then leaned relaxedly on the container behind him.

He took a leisurely puff of the smoke ring and said to Calvin who was still lying on the ground pretending to be dead:

"Okay young man, I learned this job of pretending to be dizzy when I first participated in the navy's physical training. If I were you, I would get up by myself and let go of those two servitors who are about to fall apart."

"Hey! I met a colleague!"
