Warhammer, but Emperor's Chosen

But even so, the strength of the Cadian sector alone is obviously not enough to resist the Chaos enemy, and the Chaos enemy does not only threaten the safety of the Cadian sector. Therefore, several surrounding sectors must assist the Cadian sector in defense.

For example, the Belis Crown region is the core of the Imperial Navy in the Hazy Star Domain.

For example, the Medusa Sector is the home world of the Iron Hands.

Another example is the Skarrus sector, which is the most populous sector in the Eye of Terror, with a total of 6 hive worlds and 3 forge worlds!

Once the Scalus sector falls, it will inevitably lead to a chain reaction. The surrounding sectors will be invaded by Chaos, and the Empire will have to draw more troops to quell the rebellion. Cadia's defense will also become precarious!

How did Noah get involved in this?

"When did the rebellion begin?" Noah asked.

"Nine months ago, when I first set out from Terra."

Noah knew that she would not bring this up for no reason, so he asked directly:

"What do you need me to do?"

Vivian gave him an approving look:

"The Inquisition suspects there is another conspiracy, so we need you to go to the Skarrus Sector to help investigate the truth of the matter."

Noah pondered for a moment and asked:

"I remember that Judge Thaddeus was also in charge of suppressing the rebellion of Corden Tertius. Is he not here?"

"He's missing."

Vivian said, "At the same time as Zoras rebelled, Inquisitor Thaddeus disappeared."

Karga asked:

"So, this is the price?"

Vivian shook her head. She looked at Noah and said seriously:

“No, you can refuse, and I promise that no one will hold you accountable for this.

After thinking for a moment, she added:

"The rebellion in the Skarrus sector and the Inquisition's investigation of you are two different things. They just happen to be related to you."

Noah seemed to have been thinking for a long time. He stretched out his hand to Vivian and said in a deep voice:

"Since it is related to me, I naturally have no choice but to do it. This may be the mission entrusted to me by the Emperor."

Vivian stretched out her fair little hand and gently shook his, her eyes softening a lot:

"Thank you for your understanding, Noah."

Calgar did not stop Noah, but he was silent for a moment and slowly spoke:

"The Ultramarines will send half a company to support the Skarrus Sector."

Noah looked at Calga without expressing his gratitude in words.

But I couldn't help but feel touched in my heart. The help of the Extreme Warriors was not in vain. Calgar was a really good person. He would really help when there was something going on!

Chapter 123 Emperor: So I am part of your PLAY?

The Great Whirlpool Universe, Badab, and the Palace of Thorns.

"So, you are going to the Scalus sector now?" Huron asked with a frown.

"Yes." Noah raised his head and drank the Macragge specialty wine in the glass.

He had just left Macragge and rushed to the Maelstrom region without stopping, not because Huron was here, but because this was the nearest subspace navigation route to the Skarrus sector.

Of course, visiting Huron was just a side trip.

Huron poured Noah a glass of wine and said in a deep voice:

"Noah, you have to be careful, I don't think she's a good person!"

Noah almost spit out his wine, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Why do you say that?"

Huron gave him a strange look:

"Can the Inquisitor have anything good?"

Noah couldn't refute that the Inquisitor was indeed no good.

But Vivian is an exception, she is his wife!

He would definitely have to be careful with the other inquisitors, but Vivian was still trustworthy.

But Huron didn't know the inside story, and this was also for his own good. Noah couldn't refute it, so he had to change the subject:

"Anyway, the Tiger Claws are still rebuilding, but this must be done in Macragge, under the supervision of the Ultramarines. They won't be able to come to the Maelstrom to help you for at least a few decades."

A smile appeared on Huron's face:

"I understand, these are small things, as long as they can rebuild."

Huron was genuinely happy for his brother chapter. After all, Tiger Claws was a sub-chapter of Astral Claws, and Huron looked upon the Space Marines of Tiger Claws as his own sons, otherwise he would not have risked taking in Tiger Claws and even withholding their gene-seed to help them rebuild.

Now that he has finally got what he wanted, how can he not be happy?

Noah continued:

"Besides that, all the Tiger Claw survivors you gave me died."

Huron was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice:

"This is the path they chose. They won't regret it, and I won't regret it for them either!"

Noah took a sip of wine:

"By the way, I have more than 40 Ogryns on board. Find someone to take over."

Huron's eyes flickered slightly, and he calmly clinked glasses with Noah, and they smiled at each other. Everything was said without words.

Huron hesitated for a moment, then he said:

"I will send two companies to go with you to the Skarrus Sector this time."

Noah frowned:

"If you give me two companies, you will only have four companies left. What about the defense of Badab?"

In the Battle of Macragge a few years ago, the Astral Claws sent 500 Space Marines to support. Among them, nearly 300 Space Marines died, and the death rate ranked first among all supporting chapters. The loss was not small!

A standard Codex Regiment, the first company is composed of Terminator veterans, the second to fifth companies are combat companies, the sixth to ninth companies are reserve companies, and the tenth company is composed of new recruits.

The three companies Huron lost in Macragge were all combat companies and Terminator veterans!

If it were any other regiment, it would definitely be considered a complete loss of elite troops.

Even if Huron has been frantically expanding its army in recent years, those newly recruited soldiers cannot form effective combat power because their gene seeds are not yet mature. Sending them to the battlefield now is not only sending them to death, but also ruining the future of the regiment.

So under normal circumstances, leaving aside additional military branches such as dreadnoughts, pharmacists, technical sergeants, honor guards and think tanks, Huron would only have 600 people left under his command.

If these 600 people were to be given two more companies to Noah, the remaining four companies would not be enough to defend the Great Whirlpool Universe, and I'm afraid even the front line would collapse.

Of course, Huron is not a normal person, and we cannot generalize.

Noah knew this very well, and he asked this question on purpose.

"hehe."

Huron chuckled, "Who told you I only have 6 companies? I still have 10 companies!"

His smile was somewhat arrogant, because these ten companies were the basis for his arrogance!

But at the same time, it is also his way to death.

Noah took a sip of wine, his eyes were a little subtle:

"When did it start?"

"Half a century ago."

"Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

"So what if I discovered it? Where's the evidence?"

Huron asked in return:

"If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who will know?"

Noah raised his glass again and clinked it with his. By telling him even this, Huron had completely explained everything to him.

This is much more reliable than Klipman!

But Noah also understood that this was the reward for his hard work in rebuilding Tiger Claw.

Trust is something that is mutual.

Noah suddenly asked:

"Do you want a planet?"

Huron's eyes flickered:

"Colonizing a planet?"

Noah smiled but said nothing.

"In the Whirlpool?" Huron asked again.

He was a smart man and knew that if they were too far apart, Noah would not mention it to him because it was impractical.

As the guardian of the Maelstrom, Astral Claw cannot colonize Ultramar or the Coronus Expanse. Only those colonized planets in the Maelstrom are of practical significance to him.

"Correct."

Noah nodded slightly:

"I have a star map with some colonizable planets and the warp routes to these planets. But I can't guarantee what's on these planets. Maybe there's nothing on them. Maybe they're lost colonies of the Empire, or green-skinned worlds, or even worlds occupied by the Chaos enemy!"

"enough!"

Huron was a little excited, as he knew very well how valuable this star map was.

What's important is not the colonizable planets, but the subspace channels connecting these star systems! Otherwise, if there are only colonized planets but no subspace channels to go there, what's the point of him having them?

Moreover, these subspace channels are exclusive to him, and so are these worlds!

Huron boldly proposed:

"We split 70-30, I'll split 30."

"No." Noah shook his head.

Huron was not hypocritical:

"Then eighty-two."

Huron knew that Noah didn't need to give him the star map, as he could colonize it himself. But since Noah took the initiative to give it to him, it was a benefit for him. Huron was never greedy, and didn't expect to get the lion's share, so giving him 20% was enough.

Noah still shook his head.

Huron frowned. It can't be nine to one, right?

he asked:

"How many planets are there?"

Noah held up a finger.

"Ten?"

"One hundred."

"hiss!"

Huron gasped. One hundred?

Back then, his father Guilliman's five hundred worlds only numbered five hundred, while the Ultramarines at that time had more than two hundred thousand men!
