Warhammer Inquisitor Chapter 454

  Chapter 454 Reborn from the Ashes: Meet the Storm

The black patterned boots stepped into the ground after the steel door was opened, and its silver-plated heels jingled on the ground, and when the next pair of boots followed the footsteps, the crisp sound was like a bell in the wind. The footsteps echoed one after another, and the two pairs of boots stepped on the ground, and the silver armor inlaid on their insteps also kept colliding with each other.

  In this silent space, the sound of footsteps was exceptionally clear and loud. They stepped across the empty deck and stopped in front of a broken bloodless arm.

A pair of hands reached down from the top of the boots, picked up the severed arm as the black windbreaker bent down, the owner of the boots looked at the withered arm in his hand, the whole piece was torn off, but the wound There wasn't a single drop of blood flowing out of it, but was covered with a layer of weird liquid.

   That pungent smell means that it is maintenance fluid, lubricant or something with a similar function, but their common feature is that they all smell bad, and the more intense pungent smell comes from a more forward position.

He raised his head and looked forward, and saw the torn apart training servants under the pale light. They were lying there, piece by piece, almost none of their bodies were more than half intact, and something was torn apart. Cracked them, dismembered their bodies.

And the voice of the culprit who caused all this also came from a distance, thanks to the quiet environment brought by the emptiness here, Vito could clearly hear the low voice with a strong accent coming from a distance. gothic.

   From some of the slang Vito can hear, it is the language of a very cold planet in the empire, and the owner of the voice is also embellishing the background compound sound with roars, steel collisions, and roars.

Vito threw away the severed limb in his hand. He and Lilith, who also came out wearing a black cloak behind him, looked at each other, and then walked over. Stepping over the engine oil flowing on the ground, he walked towards the source of the sound.

   It came from behind a closed iron door. The door blocked most of its sound, but it still echoed in the entire empty training area with a strong tone.

  Vito reached out and approached the scanning interface of the door next to him, but just as his hand was about to touch the door lock button, the entire interface suddenly flickered, tearing the interface with distorted characters and shaking garbled codes.

After the Machine Soul screamed silently, it fell silent, the whole screen flashed black and was completely swallowed by dead silence, Vito looked at the screen in front of him and frowned, while a hand behind him patted his Shoulder.

Vito turned his head and looked behind him. Lilith stood behind him and looked at the extinguished lights in the distance. The light hanging from the top went out with a low sound. The lights disappeared at the end of the deck instantly, and the darkness disappeared in the blink of an eye Drilled from all around and swallowed everything there.

Then the second, third, and fourth lights went out one by one, and they gradually approached from far away. Vito looked at the lights in the distance that went out one by one, and he heard the sound of other lights going out beside him. .

Vito glimpsed that the other lights behind him were also going off at the same time, and they turned off at the same time. Even the flickering time was unexpectedly consistent. support.

  The abyss rushed towards Vito, and then stopped suddenly. They stopped in an instant beyond the edge of the last light above Vito's head.

   "There is something wrong." Vito said softly, while Lilith beside her was looking around in the deep darkness, suddenly stared in one direction and pressed the handle of the long knife on her waist.

   "Someone is here."

She said softly, holding the handle of the knife and slowly pulling it out, Vito turned to the direction of the sound of footsteps, the sound came from the darkness, light as if walking in the air, in the dark In the silence, Vito heard the floating sound of the robe, and the sound of the edge of the robe rubbing against the trousers.

He frowned slightly, and after a moment of thought, he held Lilith's shoulder, and the latter turned his head to look at Vito from the corner of his eye, while the latter looked at the source of the sound ahead, "Don't do anything, listen to my instructions. "

Lilith nodded after a moment of silence. She took two steps back, while Vito walked up in the opposite direction. He walked to the edge of the light and before the darkness, reached down and pulled the holster of the bolt gun. He put his hand lightly on the handle of the gun and stared at the approaching footsteps.

   "Who is where?" Vito asked sharply, but the voice did not answer, and the footsteps continued to approach from far away, coming very close from the darkness.

   Vito frowned. They were navigating the Warp now, so the sound of footsteps from the sudden flash of darkness wasn't always welcome, especially when the voice didn't speak back.

His finger tapped lightly on the trigger, his hand grasped the **** of the gun and the leg with the gun pulled back, posing a cowboy drawing his gun. He stared at the source of the sound, and the bolter was released from the holster. Slowly pull it out, "Whoever you are, show up."

But just as the bolter was about to come out of its shell, a figure stepped out of the shadows in front of Vito. He appeared from the blurred boundary of light, and the light of the only lamp above his head shone dimly on the pocket above his head. hat, and the face was hidden in darkness.

"Who are you?" Vito looked at the mysterious man in front of him wearing a long gray cloak and a hood. The trigger finger of the bolt gun was pressed on it, and the muzzle almost reached the edge of the holster. .

But at this critical moment, the mysterious man in front of him suddenly lifted his hood, revealing his hidden face, "A friend, put away your weapons, Vito Constantine, I am not here Here is your enemy."

Vito looked at his face and raised his eyebrows, "Aidalad?" He asked in surprise, looking at the prophet of the spirit race in front of him, that is him, Adalad O'suran, the great prophet of the spirit race .

"Why did you come here? And, can't you just come out? Every time you are so surprised." Vito said and inserted the bolt gun back, and he looked at Adalad in front of him , while the latter turned his head silently to look at Lilith behind Vito.

"Because sometimes, there are not only friends present, Lilith Phantom, the sister of Ms. Destroyer." "I want to be called the Phantom Queen, I am not her." In other words, both the front and the back, there will only be darkness.”

  Lilith looked at the Elder Prophet smiling. Under the sweet but poisonous snake-like smile, a thin tongue spit out from the gap between the lips, trembling lightly in the air.

"I told you, Vito, that you shouldn't merge with the power of destruction. At the end of this road, there is only destruction itself." Adalad continued to stare at Lilith without even blinking, as if as long as she disappeared in the A split second in sight would devour him.

   "Tell me, Edalad, what are you here for?" Vito raised his hand from the gun, and he looked at the Eldar Prophet in front of him, but the latter was still staring behind him intently.

   "Don't worry about her, your soul will stay where it should be, and besides, you are not here, right? This is just a psionic projection of you."

Vito folded his arms, he stood under the only light and looked at Adalad in the hazy darkness, "You burned your own spiritual power and contacted me in the subspace without hesitation, you definitely didn't want to come to me Love life dictates, right? And you know, I don't care."

  There was a smile on the corner of Lilith's mouth. She raised her head and looked at Adalard with the corners of her eyes as if showing off. She tried her best to be ironic, but the latter was not affected.

Edalard remained expressionless, like all the Ark Eldar, except for Iyana, they were almost all facial paralyzed, hiding their emotions under a mask of disguise, and praying to avoid the eyes of Ms. Pleasure , although now, she is standing in front of Adalad.

The Great Prophet turned to Vito after being silent for a while, he stood in the hazy darkness, "The Son of Destruction has returned, the wound on the throne has long healed, and now, he returns with the wrath of destruction power, the blood-red sun is rising , thousands of skies are dyed red with blood."

   "Really? Just the two of us face to face, and you still want me to guess riddles?" Vito smiled jokingly. He stood in front of the Great Prophet with his arms folded, "Speak Gothic."

Eldarard was silent for a while, and it took him a while to answer, "Abadon has healed the wounds of his failure on Terra, he has now embraced the power of destruction even more, just like his father did back then, and he swore to serve The Scarlet Lord and the three masters offer a grand gift."

   "You mean, Abaddon led his Black Crusade out of the Eye of Terror again? For the fourteenth time?"

   "The Son of Destruction has returned to the physical universe. Although the final moment has been stopped, the storm of destruction has subsided in Cadia, and the black stone still stands in the northern plains of the galaxy, but the Eye of Terror has still been strengthened like never before."

The Great Prophet waved his finger in front of his face, and the light of magic rose in front of him, forming a map of the Milky Way between the two of them, and countless light particles flickered on it, forming a brilliant picture of the Milky Way. As Aidalad's palm brushed over it, a scarlet storm tore from the astrolabe, sweeping the surrounding star field.

That storm did not blow from the distant Eye of Terror, but tore directly from the hinterland of the empire, sweeping up at the intersection of the Obscure Starfield and the Ultimate Starfield, and its huge storm boundary touched the surrounding Several galaxies.

And this is not what alerted Vito the most. What he was alerted to was a crack in the storm, which was torn from the astrolabe, just like a wound was torn on the skin of the Milky Way. Flickering out of it, thousands of worlds disappeared in that crack.

"With the strengthening of the Eye of Terror, the power of destruction can prevail in the galaxy, and the previous battle of Terra and Cadia has brought fear to the entire galaxy, tens of thousands of worlds are in panic , and their out-of-control emotions have also brought infinite nutrients to the power of destruction."

Adalad took a peek at Lilith from the corner of his eye, his eyes still full of vigilance and vigilance, "Their power is unprecedentedly strong, while the power of the Emperor is gradually silenced in the storm, the light on Terra Already covered by the storm, the darkness engulfed countless pieces of sky, and Abaddon, taking advantage of the emptiness of the power of order, tore the frontier of the galaxy with the help of the mighty hand of destruction, and created a new line there. fissure."

   "A new Eye of Terror?" Vito suddenly raised his head and asked, he turned his head to look at Lilith behind him, who stood there silently and turned his head to another place

   Adalad also glanced at Lilith, then looked at Vito and shook his head slightly, "Yes, and no." "Don't play charades for me, Adalad, what happened?"

The great prophet's hand outlined in the air, his fingers circled around the crack, and passed over the torn starry sky, the crack flashed instantly, "Abadon created the crack, but it has not yet formed , but the Son of Destruction is creating fear in the surrounding star field, and the fear and death of billions of human beings is nourishing the crack, making it expand, expand, and grow until the entire starry sky is torn apart, and there is no possibility of salvation."

Vito looked at the map of the magic starry sky in front of him, stirring a large amount of energy around the rift, and they converged inward into the rift, and the huge rift greedily devoured the emotional waves of thousands of galaxies around it like a big mouth. As a result, it gradually splits in all directions, devouring more galaxies.

"He, and his masters of destruction, want to take advantage of this time when the Emperor is weak, the good side of the universe is exhausted, and the weak struggles among the stars to tear the galaxy apart. A new rift will be born, and its The purpose is to connect with the Eye of Terror, and when the two meet, the power of destruction will be unrestrained! The Eye of Terror will turn into a big crack and tear the entire galaxy apart."

   "And the whole empire," Vito added, frowning at the edge of the rift that was approaching the corner of the Eye of Terror, and they were running out of time.

   "You must stop him! Vito, use all the power at your disposal, whatever it may be, to stop him! Only then will the galaxy survive!"

After Edalard said that, he clenched his palms tightly, and the two gaps were instantly connected, and huge power gushed out from them, engulfing the Milky Way in an instant. Cracked into flying fragments, floating in front of Vito.

He frowned and glanced at Lilith behind him, then nodded affirmatively to Adalad, "I will stop him, go back to your clan, and tell all the Eldar, if they want to survive, come Help me and I will notify my other friends."

Edalad nodded, then turned around and backed away, but then Vito suddenly grabbed his elbow, and he frowned slightly at the High Prophet, "Go to Comoros and tell Victor, tell him , the time has come to fulfill the promise."

The Elder Prophet and Vito looked at each other, then nodded affirmatively, Vito let go of his hand, and the latter quickly stepped into the darkness and disappeared into the abyss-like darkness, Vito watched Adalad walked in, and then the lights came on.

  All the surrounding lights were turned on again, and the entire training area was illuminated in an instant, including the servants lying on the ground, the surrounding training facilities, the empty shooting positions, and the stationary targets in the distance.

Vito looked around, and the screen behind him lit up again. He turned around and stretched out his hand to press on the screen. Lilith beside him also leaned up to look at the screen, and then looked into his impatient eyes .

  Vito also glanced at her, and after a moment of silence, he looked at the interface in front of him, "The flames of war are waiting ahead, and the world of Vlasov Fortress is right by the gap."

"This is a trap, Vito." "Since you know it, you have to wait until Adalad arrives, and you are not going to tell me?" Vito looked at Lilith beside him, she fell silent hesitantly, her head Glanced aside not daring to meet his eyes.

Vito looked at her and sighed, and then the steel gate in front of him suddenly rose, and Vito turned his head to face a gust of wind, he turned his head and dodged a spinning tomahawk, The ax whizzed out and chopped on the ground in the distance, deeply embedded in the surface.

The howling wind lifted Vito's coat, and Lilith's black windbreaker and silver hair. They all looked at the ax in the distance, and then Vito glanced at Lilith and walked in. She stood at the door stretching Xiang wanted to grab Vito and say something, but in the end his fingers stopped in front of the cuff.

  She sighed a long time and leaned weakly against the door frame, holding her other arm with one hand and muttering, "That bitch."

Vito stepped into the training room. He looked at the two people in the central iron cage. The weapon in one of them pierced through the iron cage and just flew out of Vito. He turned his head and glanced at the man holding the iron sword in front of him. The man spat out the blood from his mouth.

"Olaf! Weapon!" He shouted and stretched out his hand through the gap in the cage. The rune priest in the wolf fur cloak turned around and took an iron ax from the weapon rack and threw it at him. The wolf immediately He grabbed the tomahawk, dragged it into the iron cage, and rushed towards the sword-wielding man howling.

   "Die! You Caliban thief!"

Vito stood at the door and watched the sparks between the two. He frowned and turned his head to look at the four people standing outside the cage. The leader Olaf quickly nodded to Vito and apologized, "I'm sorry, Vito , regarding what happened just now."

"I'm fine, at least my head isn't blown. Would you mind telling me what happened?" Vito said, leaving Lilith to go up at the door. He walked around the four people from the edge of the iron cage. Brother nodded.

Olaf sighed a long time. He looked at the two people fighting together on the stage with his hands on his hips. Spray it out and sprinkle it on the surrounding ground.

Stepping on those splashing sparks, the people with swords backed back again and again. The lights above their heads shone on them, casting a huge shadow on Vito. He looked at the retreating warriors, and the wild beasts in front of him The wolf slashed again with a heavy blow, and as he took another step back, the moment he was out of balance, he hooked the sword in his hand with a backhand.

The iron sword spun and flew up, and then flew up and stuck it on the cage. The warrior holding the sword raised his eyebrows suddenly when he saw the wild wolf who raised his battle ax again, and then jumped back to widen the distance. He stepped back to the side of the training servitor whose arm was battered to nothing.

He snatched a new sword from the servitor's withered cyborg arm, ripped it off, and pulled off the servitor's arm, and he tore the servitor's painful Arm, raised the sword to block the falling battle axe, and the huge steel buzz echoed endlessly.

Olaf looked at the two people in the cage, sighed helplessly and pointed at the man holding the axe, "During the battle to wipe out the branch of the insect swarm, Ragnar led the wolves to find the hive mothership that fell on the surface of the planet. As soon as he took the position of the queen, he rushed over with a regiment of elite fighters, but Lancelot got there first."

Speaking of which, the old wolf pointed at the other person beside him. Just as he was completing a block, he slammed his sword to push the wild wolf away. After taking a few steps back, he rushed forward with the sword in his hand and slashed down heavily, but this The wild wolf also successfully blocked it once, and the two continued to fight together.

"So Ragnar was very angry and felt that his head was robbed, so he came here to compete with Lancelot in private?" Vito asked skillfully, and Bell, who was standing by the side of the cage, shrugged, "No Wrong, in fact, they almost started fighting at the beginning, if the Queen's Guards didn't suddenly rush out to interrupt, then we suggested that they come here to settle it privately, and don't make infighting in front of the soldiers."

  Vito looked at Bell and nodded, and then looked at the two people fighting fiercely on the stage. The tall shadows of the two giants kept flickering on the ground, "How long have they been fighting?" "An hour."

"very good."

Vito pulled out the bolter immediately after speaking, and he shattered the battle ax in Ragnar's hand with one shot, and then the second shot broke Lancelot's sword, and the two soldiers were stopped by this tough way , while turning his head to look at Vito below.

  He held up the bolter, and then put down the smoking muzzle, "There is trouble, so you can go down and fight, come out now, follow me."

After saying that, Vito put the bolter back into the holster, turned around and walked towards the exit. Ragnar and Lancelot looked at each other, and then laughed loudly, "Great! I can think of it faster! Go, kill people!"

After Ragnar said that, he immediately turned out of the cage, and he followed Vito with strides. The three people beside the cage also looked at each other, nodded and followed each other. Bell waved his hand towards Lancelot, and then he He also got out of the cage immediately, and took down an oversized bath towel from the side shelf. Well, it was just a towel to him.

A group of Astartes followed Vito out of the training room. Vito, who was wearing a black windbreaker, walked in the front. His long windbreaker swayed on both sides with his footsteps, and the burly giant followed behind him. , followed him like a mountain out of the gate.

Lilith, who was by the door, looked at Vito who was passing by, and he left straight ahead. She then looked at the six tall giants passing by in front of her, and sighed after watching them all walk towards the distance of the training area. He took a deep breath and followed.

Vito quickly led the crowd back to the throne room. The report was not over yet, but was interrupted by this sudden scene. Stirakola held a scroll in his hand and looked at Vito who came out from behind the throne. And the six giants following behind him.

   "Sir, are you back?" "End the meeting and prepare to enter the battlefield."

As Vito spoke, he walked to the front of the throne room. He walked between the Star Guards, Navy, and Battle Sisters, and came to the surrounding consoles, looking at the closed hologram. Watch window.

"The battlefield? What battlefield?" Scolati said, and Cole stood up from the throne behind him. He frowned and stood on the steps of the silver throne and looked at Vito, who glanced sideways at them. , but before he could speak, the technical priest beside him roared.

"The battleship is about to arrive at the Mandeville point of the galaxy, ready to jump out." The priest in red robe said, staring at the screen in front of him, his eyes above the part of the mechanical cover of his mouth frowned, and he suddenly turned his head to look at the crowd , "Report, received a war alert sent by the Galaxy Krieg Death Army."

"Countdown to jump, 1, 2, 3." The priest turned and looked at the screen in front of him and said, and then he pushed down a lever suddenly. After a huge recoil, all the holographic observation windows in front of him lit up. Everyone in the throne room saw the battlefield outside.

Outside the window of the battleship, the battlefield around the planet floating in the distance is burning. Vito turned around and looked at the Vlasov star ahead of everyone present, "This is the battlefield. We have arrived. Let the whole army prepare to meet storm."
