This is our Warhammer journey

Chapter 148 Now, let's make up for this mistake! (Two-in-one request for monthly tickets, woo woo woo)
After calming everyone down a little, Romulus took the document handed to him by Arthur and his eyes fell on the title - "Suggestions for rebalancing power in the Wings of Dawn and contingency plans for dealing with the Ultramarines."

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

It's amazing. These Space Marines only want to fight on the front line and enjoy the combat, but they avoid paperwork. As a result, once someone takes the initiative to take over, they will be labeled as "ambitious".

Romulus sighed inwardly, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and there was a hint of inexplicable meaning in his eyes.

"No, I must find something for these dark angels to do."

He muttered to himself, then quickly wrote a few lines at the end of the document in his mind - [Disclose the Dark Angels' real-time tactics and allocate personnel to participate in paperwork.]

After writing it and sending it to his partner, he took a deep breath and spent a few seconds adjusting his expression to make sure that there was no emotional fluctuation on his face. Then Romulus turned to Caul.

"Great Sage, we will send some technical personnel to assist in deciphering the code."

He was thinking about the situation of the fallen angels under Arthur. There were quite a few Steel Wings among the fallen angels. The structure had been straightened out in the past few days, and it was time to pull them out to work.

Cawl was silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered that there was indeed a Dark Angel among the foursome.

He opened his mouth, wondering why Romulus didn't call these people out earlier, but he swallowed the words back.

He recalled how Romulus had used the Mechanicus channels to stuff the relic cruiser into the expeditionary fleet, and he suddenly understood.

It’s good to have people everywhere…

A complicated look flashed in his eyes, and then Kaul nodded.

"I accept."

He glanced at everyone in the room, secretly pondering the current situation of the expeditionary fleet.

He was secretly stuffing it with Primaris Space Marine Chapters to replace those that had been destroyed.

Other chapters, except for the Crimson Fists' eldest Space Marine Chapter, have begun recruiting soldiers from the Zhongsi Academy along the way to reinforce their forces, relying on sufficient supplies.

The most shocking thing is the Black Templars. They are frantically building fortresses on the shrine worlds along the way to prepare the strength of the chapter. After all, the equipment production lines and gene seeds are reimbursed by the Wings of Dawn, so they naturally have no scruples.

And now, the leading Dawn Wings have also begun to take action...

Cawl knew that in this day and age, there were still many ancient warriors scattered across the galaxy. It didn't make sense that the Chaos faction would have so many thousand-year-old veterans, but the Loyalists wouldn't have any.

Warp travel has always been equal.

They should have gathered another group of dark angels from ten thousand years ago.

"But I want to observe. Also, I will move the General Cannon to the surface, and we will need to share data then."

As the Mechanicum is a country within a country, many times, even technical sergeants who are well-versed in this field may not be able to recognize the functions and uses of various equipment after boarding their ships.

Although Kohl sometimes couldn't remember, he couldn't let the Dawn Wings see him again.

He also wants to save face.

"can."

Romulus agreed and then greeted Arthur.
-
[Notice: Real-time strategic data has been made public and can be accessed at any time.]

[Order: The Ravenwing Order shall select five members every three days to assist Romulus in strategic planning. No delay is allowed.]

'Silent Oath', after giving the order, Arthur walked towards the Dark Angels' base, feeling happy in his heart.

He was almost certain that within a day of taking over Romulus's mission, these fallen angels would find a way to find someone to take the blame because they could not handle the workload and had to complete the mission. By then, there would be another bloody storm within the Ravenwing.

He came to an optically invisible area and stepped straight into it. His vision changed, revealing a door made of white marble. As Arthur moved forward, the door of the round table slowly opened.

Except for two-thirds of the area of the ship used to accommodate basic production lines, auxiliary troops and other staff, the remaining area is the free activity space for the fallen angels.

Arthur didn't make any specific divisions, and these fallen angels could arrange it themselves.

He observed the secret codes mixed in with the various decorations and planned the routes in his mind. These lines, which seemed only graceful to outsiders, were very obvious clues to him.

After bypassing several checkpoints, giving a series of secret codes, and dealing with the sneak attacks of several fallen angels.

Under the watchful eyes of the 'Forbidden Vault Guards' who were responsible for protecting the Legion's secret technology, Arthur pushed open the door to a secret room.

Furnaces, production lines, data centers, archives, and all kinds of technologies that are taboo for the current Mechanicus.

The spacious cabin is divided into several areas, which gives people a sense of order at first glance.

Arthur took a step back and stepped onto the elevator that had risen behind him at some point. After a brief period of silent darkness, an area exactly the same as the previous scene appeared before him.

This is the real base of Steel Wing.

"Roch."

Arthur did not rush in. Under the cover of white light, the same type of Castellan fighter soldiers of the Mechanicus were on guard.

The Dark Angels possess most of the technology possessed by the Mechanicus, and compared to other legions, they are not dependent on the technical support of the Mechanicus.

After tapping the surface of the fighter soldier gently at a specific frequency, the fighter soldier finally put down his weapon and began to report to his superiors. Information about Steel Wing began to emerge subconsciously in Arthur's mind.

Among the 500 recalled fallen angels, nearly 200 were members who joined the Lion King, and Steel Wing accounted for half of them. They were carrying out technical integration work. The Wings of Dawn were able to provide a large number of prototypes, and they needed these technicians to reverse engineer the production methods.

With sufficient supplies of materials and prototypes, the technology recovery speed of these steel wings is not inferior to that of the technical sages.

"Your Highness!"

Less than two seconds after receiving the secret message, a fallen angel in a crimson robe emerged from the shadows.

"Bring a technical team."

Arthur leaned slightly, then turned around after giving the order.

Luo He nodded, sent the message, and then followed.

Behind him, fallen angels gradually joined the team as they advanced.

From Yu Luohe's perspective, the area where Arthur was standing allowed him to only see the secret language of the Terrans and the Caliban faction, so he naturally knew who to bring.

"The mission is to decipher a Grand Admiral Cannon encrypted by the Dark Angels."

Arriving at the transport platform belonging to Astartes, all personnel were already present. Under the escort of Castellan fighter soldiers who had been modified into the appearance of medieval knights, Arthur led everyone onto a Stormbird, connected to the channel for this mission, and spoke.

"Which period?"

The hatch closed and a feeling of weightlessness came over him. Roch asked, and began to think of a contingency plan in his mind.

"Ten thousand years ago, when the Lion reclaimed it from the Forge World of Tiamat."

Arthur replied expressionlessly.

When communicating with the Fallen Angels, he will not wear a helmet if the situation allows.

Since you intend to be open and honest, you must set an example.

"."

Some fallen angels' bodies began to tremble slightly.

They already knew what it was.

The Steel Wings also knew why Arthur brought them here. After all, they were the ones who did the encryption in the first place.

At the same time, deep doubts also lingered in their hearts.

Your Highness, how on earth are you able to hold on like this?
"From now on, similar questions will be assumed to be from ten thousand years ago."

Arthur looked at the fallen angels, including Roch, who were trembling constantly with a hair's breadth of danger, and planned to tell a little secret to divert their attention.

"Why, my lord?"

Luo He provided the supporting role at the right time.

Arthur nodded slightly:

"Today's Dark Angels do not have steel wings. Their forging masters, who are responsible for maintaining various mechanical facilities, need to go to Mars for training."

After the words fell, the cabin fell into a brief silence. Luo He's mouth corners were twitching slightly, but suddenly froze, and the expression on his face became complicated and indescribable.

"Including those forbidden technologies?"

Luo He couldn't help but ask, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

His fingers clenched unconsciously, his knuckles turning slightly white, and he was obviously very concerned about this topic.

Arthur nodded, his eyes calm:
"After the shattering of Caliban, the new Dark Angels used a fragment of Caliban as a foundation to build the Chapter Monastery."

"This monastery is called the Stone Monastery. It is used to store various technologies collected after the war and serves as the core hub of the chapter. The forge master is called the Stone Lord."

Outside the window, a storm bird was falling into the atmosphere. The violent friction dyed the sky blood red. The scorching light poured into the room through the porthole, coating everyone's armor with a faint red glow.

"They are the best and leaders among the technical sergeants. Every forge master will give up his or her human life and become part of the control system of the Stone Monastery."

"From plasma reactors to void shields, from the most basic production lines to the most forbidden technologies, from fortress defense arrays to private security systems, they all possess them."

The more they felt the importance of this master forger in Arthur's words, the more speechless the Steel Wings became.

"The Icarus Protocol"

The Dark Angels possess a large number of STCs granted and kept by the Emperor himself, as well as the Ikaros Protocol, which allows them to prioritize the extermination of Mechanicus worlds at their own discretion.

They are originally superior to the Mechanicus in the ecological chain, and all their equipment is produced independently. They are regarded as the Emperor's final insurance against the Mechanicus.

During the Great Crusade, they had already implemented this agreement on eight Forge Worlds.

"In recorded history, the protocol has been activated eight times." Doesn't that mean it has never been activated!
The Steel Wings shouted in their minds, and then they realized that not many Dark Angels now remembered this agreement.

"How did our legion become like this?"

Steel Wing murmured.

"After the Heresy, the Dark Angels, after a period of chaos, chose to split up in response to Guilliman's Codex Astartes. Currently, only the Deathwing and the Ravenwing remain."

"Its sub-groups, the Astral Phantoms, coincide with the Dreadwing, the Hierophants, and the Flamewing. The Steelwing and Hurricanewing are unknown."

Arthur replied, without explaining where these secrets came from.

It’s that damn Guilliman again. Why was it the angel who died in the Heresy instead of Guilliman!

"The Steel Wing is gone."

While slandering a certain Primarch of the Thirteenth Legion in his mind, Roch was very clear about one fact.

The Dark Angels had gotten so far that they had to go to Mars to train tech sergeants, so how could Steelwing still exist?

etc.
The fallen angels suddenly reacted.

They caught the blind spot.

So the current Dark Angel can’t even have six wings?

The Steel Wings looked at each other. With more than 500 of them, they could form the six wings and nine major guilds.

It seems that this copyright issue can really be discussed.

You don't even know your own responsibilities. The structure left by the Lion has been disbanded. There is no Caliban and no Lion.

This isn't a Dark Angel.

Several people immediately stared at Arthur.

"Here we are."

Arthur stood up and was the first to walk off the ship.

The Steel Wings immediately followed with their mechas and equipment.

Together they came to a shooting platform protected by a land-based void shield.

Here, in addition to Ramses who is responsible for reviewing the chaos pollution, and Kaul who is responsible for decryption, the General Cannon has also been waiting for a long time.

The Steel Wings all started to murmur, it really was one of the two great general cannons from back then.

The world is always full of wonderful coincidences.

The Great General Cannon, ordered by Horus, promptly retrieved by the Lion King, then tricked away by Perturabo, ultimately pierced several holes in the walls of Terra.

After going around in circles, it finally came into the hands of the Dark Angel from ten thousand years ago.

"Great Sage Kaul."

Arthur spoke first, asking Kaul, who was still observing the database, to stand up.

The great sage took a few steps back, and a barrier to block information visibly emerged around him, making the overall color of his spare body darker.

"Arthur."

After moving away to a distance he thought was safe, he nodded towards the Dark Angels.

"I'll trouble you to decipher it."

"it is good."

Arthur waved his hand, and Roch, who had already calmed down, came forward with several Steel Wings.

Arthur then moved closer to a distance that would not interfere with Steel Wing's work and began to scan the information of the General Cannon.

The great sage took a few steps away as if avoiding the plague.

"Is there Chaos contamination?"

Arthur asked.

"It's not serious. It's easy to deal with. The core system is not corrupted. The machine has fired very few times."

Ramses replied.

Thanks to the Iron Warriors' careful maintenance, the machine remained uncontaminated by Chaos.

If this fell into the hands of the Death Guard, they would have no interest in recovering it.

After having the brothers of the Pentacles Order carefully screened it, the Steel Wings connected to the system of the General Cannon and unlocked the encryption they had left behind ten thousand years ago.

They are going to install a new encryption.

This Grand General Cannon must be in the hands of the Dark Angels.

"Hey, I have an idea."

Ramses suggested, "How about the new code for the General Cannon be 'Let Leon be the Warmaster!'"

Luo He's hand that was operating slipped, and he barely managed to control his hand before it stopped abruptly in mid-air.

This damn Thousand Son knows too many secrets.

It’s bad enough that he pretended to be dead to mess with them before, but now he’s speaking without restraint.

He took a deep breath, silently thinking that this was His Highness's close friend, and it was normal for both parties to share information, so he suppressed the idea of eliminating this Thousand Son.

[Sonic Shock-004, Tiamat II Grand Admiral Cannon, affiliated with the Dark Angels Legion.]

【Instruction: Overwrite the original permissions and re-enter the encryption program.】

Dozens of seconds later, with the activation of the energy system, a series of data appeared on the sci-fi control panel of the General Cannon, and the signature was prominently displayed.

Call glanced at Arthur from a distance.

Arthur simply sorted out the data and structure of the General Cannon itself and sent it over.

The Great Sage immediately turned and left, adding another order to the fleet prepared by the Wings of Dawn.

For the vast majority of Mechanicus sages, knowledge is wealth, and preserving it is more important than utilizing it.

Because knowledge that remains in your hands is wealth, but if it is used, it will be reversed, cracked, and then devalued by all parties.

Kaur has experienced this all too well.

But after he found out that Dawn Wings also planned to promote it, he actually didn't care too much.

This is the biggest difference between Cawl and other Mechanicus sages.

He cares more about the process of discovering and creating knowledge. He doesn't care too much about the final direction of this knowledge as long as it does not fall into chaos.

He even likes the promotion, except that there is no one to take the blame. He himself is afraid of trouble and has a more important mission to shoulder, so he is too lazy to get involved in so many things.

Therefore, Kaul is someone worth maintaining friendship with, and Dawnwing welcomes Kaul's proposal for technology sharing.

"When can we officially go into combat?"

After completing the transaction with the great sage, Arthur and Ramses looked at each other and turned around to ask.

"at any time."

Roch replied.

"Then start the warm-up. Connect to the combat command center in thirty seconds."

Arthur ordered, then stepped up to the console.

He already understood the operating mode.

"receive."

Kacha!

A steel wing pushed the lever, and the reactor of the general cannon began to burn. The energy was transmitted to all parts of the body of this huge machine under the correct guidance of the distribution system.

This machine, which had been cold for countless years, finally began to beat again.

"Back then, Perturabo promised the Lion King that he would use this weapon where appropriate, but it is clear that Perturabo did not fulfill his promise."

Arthur spoke softly, stroking the panel of the General Cannon.

Luo He and others looked solemn as they stared at the fortress occupied by the Iron Warriors in the distance, murderous intent flashing in their eyes.

Although the Lion has many problems, he is loyal after all. He just wants to be the Warmaster. The Dark Angels are all looking forward to the Lion representing the First Legion to become the Warmaster.

The Iron Warriors, this honorless legion, are the true rebels.

They deceived the Lion, deceived the Dark Angel, and tarnished this hard-earned trust.

They must repent!

"Now, let's put her to good use."

"Yes, Your Highness."
