Plunder the Heavens from Warhammer

Chapter 68 Winnie Winslet, Your Excellency the Inquisitor
Eight years old is the age when flower buds bloom, the most innocent and beautiful.

In Emmerich, Alvin saw a rare kind of humanity that shone with dazzling brilliance!
Perhaps, the Warhammer universe is a cesspool, but it is undeniable that there are still many shining humans who are struggling desperately just to keep their race going.

It is precisely because of many people like Emmerich that the empire has continued to this day.

Alvin subconsciously touched his head and said in a much gentler tone: "You are a kind child, Emmerich."

"No, Mr. Alvin, you are the kind person." Emmerich has excellent character, and his blue eyes are full of sincerity and gratitude: "If it weren't for you, Chris and I would have starved to death. I am always grateful to you!"

Such a sensible child is really rare. Although Alvin felt a little reluctant, he had no choice.

Emmerich was too stubborn, yet very sincere, and that was why he identified with the Hammer Gang and Korch.

But suppose Emmerich was not a grateful person, perhaps Alvin would not have helped him in the first place.

Every sip and every bite is predestined by fate.

Alvin sighed in his heart, pretended to reach into his arms, and actually took out a small piece of gold: "Just consider it a little gift from me, a birthday present for Chris. Remember not to show it to anyone. With your intelligence, you should be able to find a way to exchange it for money."

There was only so much he could do for Emmerich.

"No, Mr. Alvin, I..."

Emmerich felt the heavy metal in his hand and quickly refused: "You have helped me a lot. I...I can't accept your things anymore. Please take them back."

"You don't like the things I gave you?"

Alvin frowned deliberately, pretending to be dissatisfied.

Emmerich was stupid, he was so anxious that he was spinning around, his head was covered with sweat: "No, I didn't, Mr. Alvin."

"I was just kidding. Take it." Alvin ruffled the boy's hair and chuckled, "It's not only for your sister, but also a gift to wish you a happy wedding."

Feeling the gold nugget, Emmerich had no idea what it was, but it must be worth a lot. He carefully put it into his arms and said, "Thank you, Mr. Alvin."

"Goodbye, kid."

Alvin looked at him deeply, turned away without hesitation, and waved his hand: "May the great Divine Emperor bless you, Emmerich."

"Mr. Alvin, will we meet again?"

Before leaving, Emmerich seemed reluctant to leave. Looking at Alvin in the afterglow of the setting sun, he asked innocently, "When I make enough money, I want to repay you!"

Looking at Emmerich in the shadows, Alvin did not turn back. He stood there in silence for a few seconds, with a look of melancholy on his face. "Yes, we will meet again. Remember, if anything goes wrong, don't hesitate. You must protect the safety of yourself and your sister, and of course your future wife."

After being away for a month, the door of the church seemed to have been renovated.

There were several bullet holes on the wall, obviously Tucker had been there and had a fight.

As Alvin stepped over the threshold, he heard binary prayers coming from the chapel.

"Respected Father Aruman, I am back."

Looking at Father Aruman who was praying in the church, Alvin spoke carefully.

The prayer came to an abrupt end, but Aruman continued to pray. For a moment, the whole church fell into an eerie silence, and the atmosphere was inexplicably depressing.

After a moment, Aruman Vera, wearing a rust-red robe, ended his prayer posture.

The technical priest from the Mechanicus walked towards him slowly with steady steps until he stopped in front of Alvin.

The electronic device embedded in his left eye flashed a scarlet light, as if scanning his body.

After a brief silence, Aruman seemed relieved: "I'm glad you're back. I won't hold it against you for this incident, but you are not allowed to do such dangerous things again in the future."

Nineteen out of ten are wrong
With such a concerned tone, could he really be Aruman's illegitimate son? "Uh, thank you for your concern." Alvin was a little confused for half a second, but then he said, "Father Aruman, I went to see Mr. Tucker in the lower nest, but..."

"I already know about this."

Father Aruman interrupted him, seemingly not caring, and said calmly: "Tucker told me before doing this, you don't need to ask too much."

Is there anything that requires a heavy bolter and a chainsword?
Suddenly, Alvin had a bold idea and he couldn't help but be shocked.

Heavy Bolter. Could it be that Mr. Tucker is planning to assassinate the planetary governor?
But he quickly rejected the idea.

No matter how powerful Tucker is, he can't kill the planetary governor in public, unless he is crazy.

"You came back at the perfect time."

At this time, Father Aruman looked at him meaningfully and said slowly: "Accompany me to see someone."

Having spent a long time with the Mechanical Priest, although Aruman's voice was always low and hoarse, this time, Alvin could hear a rare solemnity in it.

"Father Aruman, can I ask who you are going to see?" he asked curiously.

After all, the person who could make a technical priest behave so solemnly was obviously not a small figure.

"Don't ask too many questions."

However, Aruman did not reveal it, but only warned him: "Don't say what you shouldn't say, remember, otherwise I can't protect you."

Alvin really wanted to ask, since it was so dangerous, could he not go.

But unfortunately, Father Aruman did not give him any room to refuse, and stepped directly over the threshold: "Hurry up and follow me, boy."

With no other options, Alvin had to follow this 'old man'.

He originally thought that he would be taken to the upper nest to meet the nobles at the top level. After all, with Aruman's identity, he really couldn't think of anyone other than a noble who could make the technical priest act so serious, and even warned him many times about his code of conduct.

But he never expected that Aruman would bring him to a shabby hotel.

To say that it is shabby is a compliment. The hotel environment is no less than Xiachao. Even the structure of the house is shaky, as if it will collapse at any second.

However, Father Aruman didn't seem to care. He took heavy steps on the creaking stairs. Alvin was afraid that the stairs could not bear the weight of a technical priest.

Fortunately, the stairs held up and the two reached the second floor.

Aruman was standing outside a room and gently rang the doorbell. "I am Aruman Vera, a technical priest of the Martian Mechanicus."

After a moment, there was a click and the door lock opened.

Aruman motioned Alvin to follow and entered the room first.

The hotel room was simply furnished. Apart from a single bed that was almost moldy, there was not even a separate bathroom. The whole room was filled with a pleasant smell of incense.

There was a woman sitting near the window.

Her posture was straight and upright, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, revealing a majesty that made people dare not look directly at her, as if she was born noble.

She had fair skin, pretty face, and a temperament as cold as ice, like an unmelting iceberg. She had a high nose bridge, tightly closed lips, and was wearing a black robe inlaid with gold edges. She sat quietly in front of the window, with her light golden curly hair casually draped down.

Just as Alvin was guessing the origin of this woman.

Father Aruman actually bowed slightly to the seated woman to show his respect: "Nice to meet you. I am Aruman Vera, a technical priest of the Martian Mechanicus. I pay my highest respects to you, Your Excellency Inquisitor Winnie Winslet!"
