Chapter 2810 The Lord of the Castle Comes to the Door
After Malakin left, there was no news for nine months. However, only the commander of the tenth company who stayed at the Trace of Victory did not participate because he had to train new recruits. There were also two companies performing tasks elsewhere, but the tenth company was not involved.
The company commander didn't find it too strange, because the place was too remote. There might not even be an astropath spire for several light-years around, so slow transmission of messages was normal.
After all, given the unstable situation in the subspace, it is not uncommon for a war group to disappear for ten or eight years, so naturally it is not that stressful.
But Soshiyang felt a little uneasy, because the place was remote, yes, but there was also a relatively prosperous world nearby, the religious world of Saint Casperen, where there would definitely be an astropath choir, which made no sense for nearly a year.
Can't be contacted at all.
With this uneasiness, Soshyan held a joining ceremony for new members. After the vote, the Relic Chapter unanimously voted to join the Suffering Alliance, and then the Mantis Warriors. In the vote, the Ranger Warriors finally chose to abstain, and the other Chapters all
With the vote in favor, two new members were added to the Suffering Alliance.
After the admission ceremony, there was naturally a welcome ceremony, which as always adopted the most common and favorite mode among the Adeptus Astartes, a competition.
After rounds of fierce battles, Robin from the Astral Knights finally defeated the masters of the other seven groups and won the championship, making Sosh proud.
As soon as the banquet to communicate feelings was over, Soshiyang immediately went to a hidden spirit bone chamber in the Astral Knights area where the Mark of Victory belongs, and contacted the ranger scouts of the Royal Court nearby, who were also affiliated with
A part of the Golden Feather Guard was just peripheral personnel. Then Soshyan asked them to go to Sondheim 5 as soon as possible to investigate and see what happened to the Weeper. If anything happened, they would report immediately.
After that, Soshyan said goodbye to Arash and gave him some instructions, asking him to actively participate in training and management after returning to the legion, and to discuss anything with Talos.
But as soon as Arash walked away, a group of people found him immediately.
They came from the Death Watch, and were led by the Watchmaster of Watcher Fortress, Vidrian Xino.
The Lord of the Watch, sometimes also called the Watch Commander, is a high-ranking position in the Death Watch. He serves as the lord of the Watch Fortress, and his position is equivalent to the leader of the Chapter. The difference is that they are scattered among countless Death Watch Fortresses in the galaxy, commanding
Multiple kill teams.
The Watcher's Fortress is one of the two death watch fortresses in the Storm Star Territory, located at the junction of the western edge of the Storm Star Territory and the Pacific Star Territory. The other is the Precognition Fortress, located at the junction of the eastern edge of the Storm Star Territory and the Ultimate Star Territory.
These two watch fortresses, one in the east and one in the west, are the only large-scale Death Watch strongholds in the Storm Star Territory.
However, the main guardian of the Storm Star Territory is the Precognition Fortress. The Watcher Fortress is more often focused on the alien activities of the Pacific Star Territory. However, the fortress is relatively close to the Nessen System and closer to Bracato, so they are not focused on it.
The Storm Star Territory is actually a good thing for Soshyan.
But today the Lord of Watch suddenly arrived. Soshyan could not help but have some doubts, but he still warmly received him.
Along with Vidrian Signor came a killing team of only six people, obviously just serving as bodyguards. Their composition was as complex as that of the Death Watch, including a Space Wolf, a Raptor, and
There are four other warriors who do not have obvious characteristics of a battle group, but they are all veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles.
Because Vidrian Xino said that what he wanted to discuss was a relatively confidential matter, Soshyan did not call the other chapter leaders, but first had a chat with him in a conference room.
The conference room was very simple, with a huge table with a video camera, several writing servitors, and servo skulls. Two people stood at both ends of the table. The Death Watch stood behind the Lord of the Watch, looking relatively relaxed, while Luo
The guards of Bin and other astral knights stood on both sides of Soshyan against the wall.
"I came uninvited, I hope you don't mind."
Vidrian Xino is nicknamed the Lord of the Black Castle, not because he is black, but because of his origin. He comes from the Black Templar, which means that he has some connections with Soshyan.
Soshyan smiled.
"How come, the door to the Scar of Victory is open to all Astartes brothers, not to mention the soldiers of the Death Watch. Brother Vidrian, you can come anytime you want."
Vidrian has a very iconic Imperial Fist face with sharp edges, a broad chin, and is full of scars. His left eye has been replaced with a mechanical prosthetic eye, and he has short white hair. It is obvious that he has no expression on weekdays.
So I just nodded to Soshyan's words.
"That's great. There are two main things here."
As he spoke, he pointed to the monitor on the table.
"Can it be used?"
"Of course, please use it."
At this time, a Death Watch technical sergeant behind Vidrian came over and inserted the tentacle into the interface of the imaging device. As a wave of water rippled in the air, photos and images appeared layer by layer.
It was also at this moment that Soshiyang's eyes twitched invisibly.
Those are images of various Eldar races, including battleships, arks, various aircraft, and even soldiers. However, they all have one characteristic...
Soshyan also realized that he had overlooked a "little thing", and now this momentary negligence was about to bring him big trouble!
And his silence seemed to be mistaken for a kind of confusion. Vidrian explained in a deep voice:
"What you see are the traces of the Eldar discovered by various watch fortresses and agents of the Alien Tribunal in the Taiping Star Territory recently."
The Lord of Watch then pointed to one of them.
"Did you notice one thing they all have in common?"
"Well...I'm not an expert in alien science, maybe..."
Vidrian immediately enlarged one of the pictures. It was a battleship with a unique shape. Soshyan recognized it at a glance as the Star Eclipse-class cruiser of the third detachment of the Tears of Heaven Fleet. He knew all the logos on it.
, of course what the other party wanted him to see was not this, but a sign——
The symbol of the Eternal Court.
"Do you recognize this sign?"
When the other party said this, the hairs on Soshiyang's body stood up, but he could only pretend to be calm and shook his head and said:
"I do not recognize."
Vidrian nodded.
"It's not your fault, because I didn't know it at first. The Alien Tribunal has been studying the Eldar for nearly ten thousand years. The Eldar are currently divided into four branches. One is the pests hiding in Commorragh.
One group is a coward living in a huge mobile home, another group is a primitive tribe living on a prosperous planet stolen from humans, and the last group is a weird clown. They are all shameless beasts and cunning beasts, but
Characteristics vary, and the Alien Tribunal has recorded all the Eldar that have had contact with and witnessed humans during these ten thousand years, including their symbols. Although not necessarily complete, they have included most of what we have seen.
