"Hello, it is a great honor, Chapter Master Soshyan Alexei."
Nigel, the Chapter Master of the Devotee Chapter, has short, lean blond hair and one eye has been replaced with a prosthetic eye. His temperament is very similar to that of the Dark Angel, with the nobility of a knight and a strange sense of mystery.
If Azrael hadn't told him, he would have thought he was the captain of some secret company of the Dark Angels.
"Hello, Chapter Commander Niqil."
Azrael then led Soshyan to another warrior wearing a dark green Terminator. On his shoulder was a white lion holding a sword, and he was also wearing a white burqa, including
The soldiers behind him were also wearing robes and hoods, and looked extremely mysterious, much like a large group of interrogating priests.
"This is Chapter Master Jigme Moni of the Disciples of Caliban."
The establishment of the Disciples of Caliban is shrouded in mystery and controversy. At some point in M37, the incoming Grand Master Anazir (a name that is easily confused with Azrael) requested the establishment of the High Lords Council of Terra.
A new subgroup.
At that time, such an unreasonable request from the leader of a founding group was unheard of. After all, each starting group was actually not well-off at this time, and the gene seed supplement itself was not completely sufficient, making it difficult to establish new ones.
Sub-group.
But the request was eventually granted, and the Disciples of Caliban were founded.
This war group has been extremely mysterious from the beginning. Soshyan only knew that there was such a person, but knew nothing about their specific situation. Moreover, their color scheme and style were almost exactly the same as those of the Dark Angels. If you don’t look at it,
The logos are completely indistinguishable from the two battle groups, which is hard not to make people think of each other.
In fact, Soshyan also thought that perhaps the former First Legion had never been dispersed. If it had not devoted a lot of energy and troops to hunting down the fallen angels, the First Legion should have created more value.
In a sense, the First Legion has been trapped in a civil war that has lasted for ten thousand years and has no idea when it will end.
After introducing the important characters, Azrael personally led Soshyan to the bridge of the Indomitable Truth.
The red carpet underfoot concealed the heavily armed footsteps of the Space Marines. When Soshyan came to a magnificent hall, he first saw the banners embroidered by the slaves of the Library hanging above his head. The compilers recorded the lives of the Dark Angels.
Many battle honors from the founding of the Legion era to the present, countless black cloth banners, edged with red and white lines, hung on huge domes and walls, listing tens of thousands of planets, space stations, asteroids, satellites and space
The names of the hulks, where the First Army had won victories in the past, some of them multiple times, were almost illegible in the darkness.
There are many altars in the hall, and Soshyan's eyes passed over the ancient objects placed on the cloth. This is the place where the First Legion displays their ancient history and glory.
One of them was a metal goblet that didn't look special. According to Azrael, it was the goblet that the Primarch used on his last night on Caliban.
The other was an ordinary metal fragment. It is said that this object was the first sword used by the original master after he came to Caliban and became a knight. It was broken into several pieces when he killed a giant beast.
This is a fragment recovered after the war.
There is also the first dress worn by the original body when he became a Knight Commander, the metal saddle originating from the ancient Knights of Caliban, etc.——
There is also a pale skull of a huge beast hanging on the wall, which is said to be the skeleton of the alien beast that died at the hands of the former Legion Champion Cosven.
Ancient history, a legacy more important than some sacred ornaments, Soshyan understood why the First Legion treasured so many fragments from the distant past. These relics represented something that had a profound impact on the First Legion.
events, and these events triggered a series of subsequent changes, covering the entire era from the founding of the First Legion to its split.
After passing through this ancient hall, Soshyan entered the bridge of the Indomitable Truth.
The first thing that catches the eye is a huge throne, so huge that even Soshyan is wearing a Terminator seat and looks spacious. The whole throne is made of ivory and obsidian, with numerous forests and knights carved on it, which looks very gorgeous.
Obviously, this throne only belongs to one person.
Soshyan looked at a huge hanging painting behind the throne, which should have been hung up by the Dark Angels after the original body left.
The picture shows a bust of a proud and mysterious man. His mane-like gray-blond hair is tightly tied into a ponytail. A simple silver ring is set on his broad forehead. Below is a pale face.
His face seemed to be permanently shrouded in the shadow of the dense forest, never seeing the sun all day long.
The man's eyes were as green as a lush forest, and his cheeks were thin and slender. The thick sable cloak slipped from his shoulders, with white mink as an embellishment. The bottom was dyed with silver curls, and the pure black armor was stained.
It was glossy and engraved with various complex and gorgeous crests of roaring lions, just like his eyes, cold and deep, as if he were a lion looking at his own kingdom.
Without Azrael's introduction, Soshyan could guess that this was the original body of the First Legion, Leon Jonson. (Hey, I don't want to see the white-bearded old man's teeth!!!)
For some reason, this original body gave Soshyan the feeling that even if it was just a simple portrait, it exuded a dark, gloomy sense of majesty, with the pride and pride of a true king.
Probably after the upheaval on Caliban, the loyal Dark Angels drew what they believed to be the most authentic original body and placed it here for all future generations to admire.
As Soshyan looked at the portrait of the original body, the other Dark Angels and the warriors of the sub-chambers also performed an ancient Caliban knightly etiquette to the portrait.
Soshiyang looked away, but his thoughts drifted to another place.
The Dark Angels announced that the original body was dead, so does that mean that the original body's remains are stored in the Stone Fortress?
If that was the case, he would still like to pay his respects in person if he had the chance. After all, it seemed that the First Legion had some connections with the Eleventh Legion back then.
But Soshyan is always a little unsure. Is the original body really that easy to die?
He now regrets that he was unconscious when he met Chagatai Khan, otherwise he would have been able to ask a lot of questions.
Although they arrived at the bridge, things couldn't be discussed here. After chatting with everyone for a while, Soshyan and Azrael, as well as the senior leaders of the Dark Angel inner circle, and the two chapter leaders entered a nearby strategy room.
This room is not big, but it is even a little dark. There are no chairs, only a round, unactivated imager in the middle, as if everything is shrouded in darkness and secrets.
Soshyan thought that maybe he was the first outsider to participate in the internal meeting of the Dark Angel.
This experience cannot be said to be good, but it is indeed quite fresh.
