The rose knot is a symbol of the member of the inquisition, but its function is far from being as simple as identity recognition. When an intern judge is promoted to a formal judge, he will receive a judge rose knot. This small columnar emblem symbolizes that he has been recognized by the emperor and can exercise the highest authority in the name of the emperor. Therefore, in a sense, the rose knot is also the most important equipment for the judge. Everyone's rose knot usually has personal identification and encoding encryption, which prevents forgery through verification by the contemplator.
Talos doesn't need to identify it anymore, it's enough for the other party to take out this.
So he nodded and turned to Bahram.
"Bahram, take this judge to see the evidence of the crime."
"OK."
Bahram responded and said to Marcus:
"Judge Marcus, please come with me."
"It's been a labor."
Take Marcus all the way to the previous warehouse, and people executed due to resistance can be seen everywhere on the road, and those who are alive are tied together in chains, like animals, occasionally huge shadows appear in the shadows and curious glances are cast, and some warriors can't help asking.
"Hey, Bahram, what are you doing?"
"I will take this judge to see the evidence of guilt."
When he entered the unmanned warehouse passage, Marcus suddenly spoke:
"Your paintings are quite unique, I remember the Astral Knight doesn't seem to be this color."
Bahram hesitated for a moment and then explained:
“We are mainly responsible for reconnaissance and infiltration missions, so we use dark tones whenever possible.”
"Is the camouflage color? Ah, this is quite rare. Most Astartes have obsessed with their colors. Only a very small number of battle groups will use camouflage color in battle. Obviously, the commander of Soshiyang's battle is more practical than traditional, and I have always admired him."
"Are you very familiar with the commander of the battle?"
"We have worked together to solve a huge threat in Valedo, and the commander of the Soshiyan Battle also saved my life several times."
"I see....."
Then there was another silence, and then the two of them came to the secret warehouse, where several soldiers were guarding it. When they saw Bahram coming, they asked curiously, while Marcus walked straight into it and checked the equipment.
"These people are no longer saved."
He quickly came to the conclusion.
"If the machine is turned off, you will die. Give them a pleasure. May the emperor have mercy on these souls."
Then he went to see the huge blasphemy machine, and when he saw it, he was also shocked.
"Damn... It's really damn. The Lentria family has gone further than I thought... Fortunately, the Astral Knight discovered it in time, otherwise it would be very likely that there would be a big mess in the future. It already has the prototype of the demon engine."
After saying that, he used a micro camera to record the complete appearance of this thing, and then said to Bahram:
"This thing is too dangerous and must be destroyed immediately."
"Don't you need to hand it over to the Legal Department?"
"The Ministry of Legal Affairs cannot handle such things, and maybe it will backfire. You cut off the energy first, and I will call my followers to destroy this thing."
Then he took out a mini communicator and began to contact the followers lurking outside the castle.
"By the way, do you even have flamethrowers on hand?"
Bahram thought for a while and shook his head.
"No, but there is a hot melt gun."
"This is OK, you may need your help later."
"No problem, I'll summon my brothers who use the hot melt gun now."
While waiting for the Inquisition's entourage and the hot melt weapon, only Bahram and Marcus were in this hall. After turning off the energy, the machine fell into silence, and the silence enveloped the darkness.
"Judge—"
After a while, Bahram suddenly spoke:
"I hope you won't think we're too cruel after witnessing this."
Marcus, who was checking the data board, was slightly stunned and raised his head.
"cruel?"
Then, he immediately realized what Bahram was saying and shook his head with a smile.
"Of course, I was a little surprised when I saw everything you did. After all, your methods are a little... special, but that is not cruel, because now I know that the Lentria family is guilty, they are already contaminated with the power of chaos, and they must be punished. Physical torture is one of the effective means of checking whether they are possessed by demons. This is not a secret in the Inquisition. Perhaps in the eyes of the ignorant, your behavior of massacre of the entire family seems too cold, ruthless, cold-blooded and even cruel, but I am by no means the case, because as a judgement
Official, I understand better than anyone how to maintain the rule of the empire, identify, lock and destroy people or organizations trying to subvert the empire... I have always believed that Astart and the judge have some similarity, and in fact all judges are trying to approach and achieve the qualities that Astart should have, that is, when the tragic truth of the entire universe strikes, keep yourself tenacious and fortunate with the calmest and even coldest mind, because we are the last barriers to the empire, and any pain, compassion or weakness is a luxury that I and you cannot afford."
Bahram had never contacted the judge before. Marcus's thoughts made him not know what to say for a moment, and just nodded.
Not long after, the judge's entourage arrived, with a total of twelve people, both men, women, young and old, all of whom were experts in different aspects.
Soon, they checked the profanity machines and began to draw sealing arrays on the ground to prevent the evil forces that might be hidden in them when the machine was destroyed. At the same time, two 11th Company soldiers using hot melt guns also arrived at the scene.
After everything was ready, the two soldiers adjusted the power of the hot melt gun to medium and then pulled the trigger towards the machine.
A hot fire spewed out, instantly ablated a large hole in the machine and ignited the flammable liquid inside.
After a few consecutive strokes, the entire machine began to burn and screamed, and many black smoke in the faces appeared. The sealing array on the ground lit up at the same time, eliminating the black smoke one by one.
The whole process lasted about three minutes. When the flames went out, the already dark frame collapsed with a loud bang.
Everything ended like that.
"Don't let anyone go! Even if it's a sweeper!"
When Kunyin Shangchao security system was completely taken over by the Astral Knights, the castle gate of the Lentria family opened, and a large number of armored vehicles from the Legal Department rushed in. The police lights on it pierced the darkness and created a noisy scene. At the same time, hundreds of law enforcement officers rushed in.
But when everyone looked up and saw the castle of the Lentria family, they made a sound of surprise and even fear.
"Divine Emperor!"
“What happened?”
Hearing the exclamations, Rory Figueredo got out of his car and looked up, and was shocked in place.
On the dark exterior walls of the castle, countless men and women were pierced by iron hooks and tied with chains. The screams and moans of the undead made the whole scene look like a nightmare.
"Oh my god..."
A reporter following the Legal Affairs Department was about to raise the camera, but a big hand covered the camera.
"Who asked you to come in? Photography is prohibited here!"
