Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 543 Rhodes's Mission: Calgar, You Go Undercover
"Now we must do everything we can to treat the wounded and eliminate all the orc spore mushrooms. We must keep searching day and night for the next month. I will not allow a single orc bun to appear on this planet."

Then, to tally the battle losses, I need to understand the casualties of all units. "Kalga's voice rang out on the communication channel of all Ultramarines.

Meanwhile, some local garrison troops and the Imperial Navy also received the communication signal from Calga and immediately began to calculate the battle losses.

"You have heard Lord Calgar's orders! Now focus all your efforts on treating the wounded, assessing losses, and carrying out post-battle work. You must eliminate all Orks threatened by humans!" Ultramarines' messengers began broadcasting this message throughout the Vigilant Planet!
Although many Ultramarines had just ordered mortal auxiliary troops to clear the orc remains, the order from the Karga Legion Commander was relayed once again.

It's easy to see how much importance the Ultramarines placed on the green-skinned orcs.

“In a few months, the Father of Genetics will arrive on this planet. I cannot allow any mistakes. When the great Guilliman arrives on this planet, I want to see a clean, sacred Vigilant Planet,” Calgar said.

The Emperor's decree must have been to send me to this war-torn planet ahead of time to clean up this mess.

This is all to ensure the safety of this planet, to ensure that it is not occupied by any strange or unusual things.

After the battle, Calga went to the reception hall of the Supreme Council to await reports of his subordinates' battle losses.

During this period, Calgary also summoned local nobles, members of the state church, and members of the Mechanicus.

“I’ve heard some bad news. Before I came to Vigilant Planet, it was said that there were heretics here,” Calgar said.

"Slander, this is blatant slander, Lord Calgar. We have always been a prosperous imperial planet, and we have always contributed to the Empire."

"We've sold our fortress-level energy shields to many imperial worlds. It's impossible for any heretics to appear on this planet," the local noble planetary governor said, wiping the sweat from his brow.

"Really? But that's not what I heard. It's said that there are evil gene stealers on your planet."

I fought the Tyranids hundreds of years ago, when they first set foot in our sacred galaxy.

"I know this is an extremely terrifying monster. Now I want you to summon all the nobles, all the high-ranking and even middle-ranking members of the state church to this hall, and then remove your hats and all your disguises," Calgar said.

Before leaving Macurag, Calgar had gathered some intelligence about vigilance, one of which was the possibility of gene stealers existing on the planet.

For ten thousand years, the green-skinned orcs were the greatest natural disaster in the galaxy. But this changed a few hundred years ago when the Tyranids set foot in the galaxy!

The greatest natural disaster in the entire galaxy right now isn't those green-skinned orcs, but the terrifying Tyranid lifeforms.

Therefore, Calgar attached great importance to any intelligence about the Tyranids, because he could not afford to make any mistakes. Once the Tyranid fleet arrived, the Empire would be plunged into a protracted and bitter war.

In some star sectors on the outer edge of the Bar star system, Lord Saint Gilles also led his genetic offspring in battle against the Tyranids, who possessed terrifying power.

Currently, the only one who maintains a perfect record against the Tyrannosaurus Rex is Lord Rhodes.

“That’s impossible, Lord Karga. We have never had any Tyranid spies here. How could those evil insects have infiltrated the human race?” The planetary governor wiped the sweat from his brow and said.

He knew better than anyone else what the situation was like. There was indeed a special sect called the Poor Prince in the lower levels of the nest, which had attracted a large number of believers over the years.

However, they also worship a God-Emperor, only this God-Emperor is the Four-Wall God-Emperor.

Calgar narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the planetary governor in front of him, as if he would immediately pull out his explosive gun and shoot him if the other said anything wrong.

“I don’t want to waste time talking to you. Now, gather all the nobles here, regardless of rank. I need to make sure this planet hasn’t been corrupted,” Calgar said decisively.

"Yes, yes, Lord Calga, I, I'll go right away." The planetary governor dared not refuse any longer and immediately ran away.

This deputy commander of the Calgary regiment is truly imposing!
There were even rumors that Lord Guilliman intended to pass the position of Ultramarines Commander to him and directly become the Regent of the Empire.

After everyone left, Calga sat down in a chair and began to rest.

"Calga! This is Rhodes. I am communicating with you through psionic means. Do not show any abnormality. Do not let anyone notice that you are different." Just then, a voice entered Calga's mind.

"Lord Rhodes, how...how did you end up here?" Calga abruptly sat up in his chair, looking around in a daze. A golden light appeared out of thin air, and Rhodes' figure emerged from it, accompanied by Tartarus, who was currently in human form.

He only reveals his true form when he is alone with Rhodes' summoned creatures and his master.

"Lord Rhodes, and Lord Tartarus, why are you here on Vigilant Planet?"

"Tartaros and I came here to deal with some matters that are top secret of the Empire."

"The only people who know I'm here are the Emperor himself and your genetic father, Guilliman," Rhodes said.

“Lord Rhodes, did you come to see me with some orders?” Calga immediately realized what was going on and asked.

"Aren't you curious why you suddenly came to Vigilant Star? It's because I know that the bunch of useless people here at Vigilant Star can't stop the orc army at all!"

"That's why I moved your fleet here directly, so you could clear out the green-skinned orcs. You did a great job, defeating these greenskins in just a few days," Rhodes said.

Upon hearing this, Calga suddenly realized why he had arrived here early. It turned out to be Lord Rhodes's doing. If it was Lord Rhodes, it wouldn't be surprising. Lord Rhodes's subordinate Tartarus possessed terrifying spatial teleportation abilities, and these abilities covered the entire Milky Way galaxy.

But if that's the case, then why would his own genetic father escort that so-called original form avatar here? Why didn't Lord Rhodes just open a teleportation portal? Since Lord Rhodes could get here, opening a teleportation portal and starting directly from Vigilant Star shouldn't be a problem, right?
"It seems you've already guessed something, Calga. You're a very clever man. Gilman, the Emperor, and I have laid a huge net here, a net that concerns the future of all humanity."

"If this plan succeeds, it will save humanity. If it fails, a new evil god will be born in the warp, and all of humanity's souls will be absorbed by him, just like the Eldar did. It might even create a new Eye of Terror," Rhodes said.

"What?! Lord Rhodes, are you telling the truth? Is it really that serious?" Calga was instantly flustered.

"It's more serious than you think! So Calga, your next task is extremely important. I need you to do as I say. You are a key part of this big network."

"You must not tell anyone about our conversation today except yourself, not even the brigade commanders or battle commanders," Rhodes said.

“I understand, Lord Rhodes! I will keep this a secret. Do you have any task for me?” Calga asked, kneeling on one knee.

I never imagined I would accept such a daunting mission! What seemed like an ordinary escort mission would actually be a matter of life and death for all of humanity!

This time, I dare not be careless or negligent in the slightest.

“Next, I want you to do this,” Rhodes said.

"This! This! Lord Rhodes, are you, are you sure?" Calga looked at Rhodes with disbelief.

“There’s no other way, I didn’t want to resort to this, but it’s the only way to lure that guy out,” Rhodes said.

"But... but will this work?" Calga asked, looking troubled.

"Calga, your time to test you has come. Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for the Empire? Even if it means temporarily bearing the blame," Rhodes said.

"I, I am naturally willing to sacrifice myself for the Empire, even my life, but, but, but, but..." Calga's voice stammered, because the lord's request was simply too outrageous.

“Think about it, Calga. This is just a mission, and Guilliman and I will help you regain your identity afterward. Being an undercover agent is nothing difficult,” Rhodes said.

“But, Lord Rhodes, even if I were willing to infiltrate the Chaos faction, Chaos Warmaster Abaddon would never believe that I would surrender to him,” Calgar said.

Lord Rhodes actually wants me to join forces with Chaos Warmaster Abaddon! What kind of outrageous move is this?

Abaddon isn't an idiot, how could he possibly believe that?

"Don't worry, I've already captured the real Abaddon. The Abaddon over there is an imposter; he's one of ours," Rhodes said with a smile.

"." Calga.
