Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 406 Luther
Late at night.

Watcher Kang lives in the castle basement with the White Knights.

Qin Xia sat in the room where Luther's armor was placed, thinking about everything on Caliban.

The Lord of the White Knights had not thought so attentively for a long time. Even during the Battle of Randan, he was thinking while doing other things.

There is so much going on on Caliban.

Conflict between the Imperial administrators and the natives of Caliban.

Chaos Corruption.

The three artifacts, and the robed men like the Dark Watchers are fighting against Chaos.

When thinking, Qin Xia even had to occasionally stand on the standpoint of the entire human race, and even let his thoughts run through the past, present and future. For example, how to prevent such an important thing as the three sacred artifacts from being obtained by Vashtor in ten thousand years.

Things on a planet can rise to the point of affecting the survival of a race, which is simply unbelievable to others.

All I can say is that the waters of Caliban are incredibly deep.

While Qin Xia was thinking, the door of the room slowly opened a small gap, and then the gap widened as the person pushing the door gradually exerted force, and finally Luther entered the room half of his body.

This tough-looking man put half of his face in first, giving a feeling of "observing in secret".

Seeing Qin Xia looking at him instead of contemplating, Luther finally opened the door and walked in.

"You want to ask me what I talked about with the Watcher?" Qin Xia said straight to the point.

Luther was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Although he told his confidant named Kangtan that he didn't want to know anything about the Watchers, Luther thought about it and finally decided to come and ask.

"Every time the Watchers show up, something big happens on Caliban."

Luther sat down slowly and sighed.

He actually wanted to know everything the watcher had just said, but considering that there must be some things that Qin Xia was reluctant to say, he couldn't make things difficult for Qin Xia.

With this thought in mind, Luther added, "I just want to know the part about what I want to do."

"They said that after clearing out the behemoths and taking over the Empire's management, the situation on Caliban is almost impossible to improve, so they advised me not to do useless things on Caliban." Qin Xia said bluntly.

Luther just nodded slowly on the surface, but he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

Even the Watcher said so...

"But the key is not what those little guys in robes say or how they view it." Qin Xia continued.

Luther raised his head, his eyes filled with curiosity, wanting to know what the real key was.

Qin Xia smiled slightly, with the right corner of her mouth slightly raised, and leaned back in the chair, crossing her legs.

The expression of the Lord of the White Knights at this time was disgusting to Lion, Perturabo, and other Primarchs who were either openly or secretly dissatisfied with Qin Xia.

"The key to the problem is what I think." Qin Xia smiled, "I think Caliban should not fall into the abyss, so I will find a way to solve the troubles on this planet, all the troubles."

Luther nodded.

"And as long as I want to, this thing can be done." Qin Xia continued.

Luther smiled and nodded again.

As they get along, Luther discovers that Qin Xia is not who Ryan thought he was... a person who is so confident that he is extremely arrogant and proud.

But in fact, sometimes Qin Xia's performance seems to be so confident that it seems a little crazy.

Luther also analyzed and concluded that Qin Xia's confidence and performance came from the certainty of "safety", the calmness when he was 90% sure about something, and the trust in his own strength and available resources, rather than shallow cognition or lack of awareness of the seriousness of the matter.

Luther exhaled a long breath. Although he only received verbal assurance, he felt extremely relieved.
"When I saw the Watcher, I even thought it wasn't a good idea to drag you into this mess on Caliban..." Luther said.

Qin Xia shook his head slowly.

In his opinion, Luther was not a useless person. No matter when they first met or what he did later in the Dawn Star Conflict, it was Luther who took the initiative to get to know him and participate in the Dawn Star Conflict because he had something to ask for.

But this is normal. The friendship between two ordinary people may not be pure, let alone people like himself and Luther.

Thinking of this, Qin Xia suddenly remembered Luther's style of doing things.

Luther has one attitude when he is with himself and another attitude when he is with others. He will actively cater to the personalities of different people and then behave differently. Even the way he speaks, his tone and his style of doing things will change so that he can leave a good impression on others.

This cannot be said to be pretended, but is due to natural character.

When Ryan grew up and prepared to unify Caliban and kill all the monsters, Luther was able to stand up and persuade all the knights, thus avoiding a human civil war through interpersonal communication. He was born to be a person who can gain the trust of others. This is what is called his innate character.

"When something like the Dawn Star incident happens again in the future, no matter what Ryan thinks, I will definitely bring some Dark Angels to participate." Luther suddenly said.

Obviously, Luther could also realize why Qin Xia took the initiative to intervene in Caliban's affairs, mostly for some reason.

Just like what Kang said for Qin Xia in his previous conversation with Watcher Kang.

"Then you better be careful." Qin Xia said with a smile, "Ryan is really not someone you can easily mess with."

"What are you afraid of?" Luther laughed. "He won't be willing to kill me."

It was hard for Qin Xia to disagree with this.

If Luther had been replaced by someone else in the Dawnstar incident, even if his head was chopped off wholesale, it would not be enough for Ryan to hit him.

When mentioning Ryan, Luther suddenly wanted to tell Qin Xia something that was in his heart, but just as he was about to speak, he saw Qin Xia's expression become serious. Qin Xia received the star message from Kamas.

The imperial governor had just contacted Brown and provided him with a list he had carefully compiled.

"Look at this." Qin Xia sent a psychic message to Luther, informing him of the message transmitted by Kamas.

Luther immediately saw a list.

This list is full of suspicious people recalled by the Governor at Brown's request. Most of them are imperial bureaucrats, and some are Calibans. The Empire will also employ Calibans to participate in management. Even if these people have little power, they are quite influential among the Calibans.

Behind each name on the list, there is some questionable thing that this person has done, such as violating the Imperial Truth and secretly worshipping.

Another example is a drastic change in personality.

"I'll verify this list." Luther said, "We just need to send someone to monitor the people on the list. If the list is true but not comprehensive enough, we can also monitor the people related to them to find out the missing parts."

"Then I will prepare to clean up everyone on the list after you verify it." Qin Xia nodded.

The two of them immediately divided the work.

Luther left the room and checked the list through the intelligence organization he had established when he just returned to Caliban. Although this organization was established not long ago, its members are all elites carefully selected by Luther, and they are extremely familiar with Caliban.

Qin Xia stayed in the room and continued to ponder.

He decided that after the list was verified and authenticated, he would first deal with all the people on the list, solve the things that Luther cared about most, and then deal with the three artifacts with the robed men.

As for the means...it's actually simple.

……

The list verification process lasted less than a week.

When Luther found Qin Xia again, he put a new list on the table: "We have checked everything. The list provided by the Governor is not false. It just missed some people. But considering that this guy has been under house arrest for a long time, it is normal to miss some people."

Qin Xia looked at the list.

Luther added a lot of people to it.

Then Luther placed a thick document bag on the table.

After Qin Xia opened it, he saw photos and videos inside.

Every person on the list has corresponding photos and videos, which accurately capture the taboo things they are doing, such as worshiping strange-looking gods, or even killing the sacrifices with their own hands.

Such photos and videos can only be obtained by undercover agents. Obviously, Luther has also arranged a lot of spies among the imperial personnel, and the working ability of these spies is really amazing.

Before the Governor provided the list, perhaps because he was not completely sure, Luther was unwilling to activate them, so they were not active at that time.

After the list was provided, with accurate targets and accurate clues, and after Luther activated them, these people played an amazing role.

"At the beginning you said there would be a way to get rid of those imperial personnel. You said they would be reasonably purged because of something that the Emperor and the Sigillite were extremely afraid of."

Luther said as Qin Xia was looking through the photos and videos.

"At that time, I thought carefully. What is there on Caliban that the Emperor and the Sigillite would be afraid of? AI? No, Caliban does not have such a thing... Well, there is, but the Emperor allowed it."

"The answer I could come up with was Chaos Corruption, but I didn't know the word Chaos at the time, I just knew that some people would become weird on Caliban."

"Anyway, from that time on, I have been preparing for this moment."

After hearing what Luther said, Qin Xia put down the photos and videos, thinking that Luther's ability was truly amazing, no wonder Ryan relied on him.

But there's still a problem.

"Not all of these videos and photos can be used as evidence... Some of them may not be evidence, such as the shooting of prisoners and the abuse of servants," Qin Xia said. "I know these behaviors are inappropriate, but they are not as certain as worshiping gods and offering sacrifices."

"I know, Qin Xia, I know that the evidence against some of them is not sufficient." Luther glanced at Kang Tan who was following him outside the door. Kang Tan was not an outsider, so he said it directly, "But these people still deserve to die! Damn it!"

Luther looked quite excited.

"They either treated the Calibans like pigs and dogs, or they killed many people just to satisfy their lust or for some other reason. I know very well that they were not corrupted, but they deserved to die."

"them……"

When Luther wanted to continue persuading Qin Xia, Qin Xia raised his hand and signaled Luther to stop.

Luther was a little worried that Qin Xia would refuse to kill these people.

But Qin Xia casually picked up the photos and videos and put them into the file bag: "Now we really have no choice but to kill him."

Only then did Luther realize that when Qin Xia raised his hand just now, it didn't mean "You can't do it", but "No need to say more".

"The cleansing operation will last for ten days," Qin Xia said. "Let's start with the governor's assistant, Kavak. Didn't your people find out that he is leading senior believers to preach somewhere? Let's blow him up first."

Luther nodded. He believed in Qin Xia's strategy.

"Ten days later, the administrators sent by the Imperial Parliament will arrive in Caliban," Qin Xia said. "Then you can choose the one you think is suitable from among the many different people on the ship. When the ostensible Lord of Caliban is chosen, everything will be settled."

"Let's give this purge a name," Luther suggested.

Qin Xia pondered for a moment and said, "Caliban..."

"The wrath of Caliban," Luther said. "We are thinking alike."

Hearing this, Qin Xia was silent for half a second, then nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes. This is the name I wanted to say."
