1 There was deathly silence in the cabin, except for the roar of the engine and the friction of parts trembling against each other, there was no sound.
The red light kept sweeping over each warrior, but they were like sculptures, sitting motionless in their respective positions.
The atmosphere was extremely weird.
"Chapter Master."
Suddenly, Soshyan, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, heard Armin's whisper coming from the helmet.
"This person is very suspicious."
Soshyan knew without looking that what Armin was referring to, but he did not express any opinion and just allowed the other party to continue talking.
"I can't imagine what kind of person could survive in that kind of environment for ten thousand years."
"Time in subspace is not constant. For him, it may not be that long."
"But that is a ship full of demons! Chapter Commander, although this is my first time fighting such an existence, I have heard from the Chief Priest in the past that it is an existence with extremely corrupting power... and
Is he really who he claims to be?"
Soshyan opened his eyes under the helmet.
"Armin, you have to understand that this is a very serious accusation."
"I can't trust him."
Soshyan didn't say anything more, but stood up from his seat. The other soldiers immediately noticed his movements and focused their attention on him.
The atmosphere suddenly became weirder.
Soshyan walked up to Sol in two steps. The other person was still looking out the window, wondering what he was thinking.
"Captain Saul."
As soon as he spoke, Sol turned his head and stood up as well. He looked level with Soshyan, his lips trembled slightly, as if he was saying something...
Armin's hand immediately reached for the bolter hanging on the outside of his thigh, as did the other soldiers.
But the next scene surprised them a little.
"Were you talking to me just now?"
As the person closest to Sol, Soshyan was able to confirm that the other person did say a word when he stood up, but he could not hear it.
"I'm asking myself."
Thor took off the previous bolt gun and his sword, and answered calmly.
"Are you worthy of trust, Soshiyang...chapter leader?"
After saying that, he handed the weapon to Soshyan.
"Captain Sol, I swear on my life and honor that as long as I can confirm that there is nothing wrong with you, I will do my best to ensure that your life and honor are not harmed in any way."
"Forget it. The so-called oath... I have heard too many times."
After Thor handed over his weapon, he sat back directly in his seat.
The cabin once again returned to its previous dead silence.
Ten minutes later, the Thunderhawk returned to the flight deck of the Starfire. The first thing in the engine room, Soshyan gave an order to Lothar on the bridge.
"Knock that ship down!"
Subsequently, the Starfire and the Glory Saber concentrated their firepower and violently bombarded the hulk that had gradually stopped moving.
Light spears, macro cannons, torpedoes, and various weapons took turns to attack, tearing out dazzling spots of light in the subspace.
The originally sturdy cruiser seemed to have lost its backbone at this time. Under the relatively weak firepower of the two battleships, it gradually disintegrated, as if tens of thousands of years had returned to it.
On the flight deck, Soshyan did not hastily allow maintenance personnel and technical servitors to get close to the Thunderhawk because he was not yet sure whether the vehicle was at risk of contamination.
Soon, the black-armored priest arrived on the flight deck, carrying rosary beads and holy objects that could detect subspace pollution.
However, he was still quite surprised when he saw that the team of seven people returned turned into eight people.
"Chapter Commander, this is..."
Yazdan looked at Thor, and two flames seemed to be ignited in the deep eye sockets of the skull helmet, trying to peel off the disguise from the other party. At the same time, he slowly turned the rosary beads in his hand.
Thor is also observing the priest. He seems to be very curious about this kind of black-armored warrior.
"You check Thunder Eagle first, and I'll go see Brother Seid."
Yazdan nodded and looked at Thor deeply before leaving.
"You take them to the medical room."
After Soshyan asked Armin to take the injured team members for treatment, he took Thor alone towards the group's temporary archives. Lothar had just told him that Brother Seid was already waiting for him there.
The Archives is not only a place where the Chapter's archives are stored, it is also the place where Brother Seid sleeps. He asked the Technical Sergeant to place his stasis position in the Archives. It seems that he can only sleep with the company of those ancient scriptures.
.
But only Soshyan knows the real reason.
At the foot of the place where Brother Seed slumbers, there is a secret entrance, where the real secret is kept.
Along the way, Thor carefully observed everything he saw.
Finally, they stopped in front of a door that required a biometric code. Soshyan stopped. After the instrument confirmed that it was correct, the door to the cabin slowly opened.
At the end of the rows of bookshelves, there is a huge pulpit. It is also a stagnant position. The Holy Fearless is standing in front of the stage, and occasionally buzzing servo skulls float above the cabin.
"Brother Said."
Soshyan brought Sol to Wuwei, then turned sideways and introduced him softly.
"We confirmed that the hulk was a Killer-class cruiser of the Word Bearers. We also found this man on that ship. He claimed to be Captain of the Tenth Company of the Emperor's Sons, Thor Tarvitz. He also helped us get rid of
Escape from the devil's siege."
Sol had tied his hair back at the moment, so his face could be seen clearly.
Wuwei was silent for a while, and then took a step forward.
"Saul Tarvitz, one of the leaders of the loyal resistance on Istvan III, I didn't expect to see you again after ten thousand years."
"I don't know you."
Thor carefully looked at the silver-gray Dreadnought. He searched hard in his mind, but could not find any information related to it.
"Of course, you won't know me, because I sleep most of the time, but when you first served, I was not in this iron coffin."
The Emperor's Son frowned sharply.
"Your previous name shouldn't be Said."
"never change."
"But I don't remember your name, and I don't seem to have heard of your deeds."
"Just think of me as an unknown person."
At this time, Soshyan suddenly interrupted:
"Brother Said, you said that Captain Thor is the leader of the loyal faction of Istvan III? However... didn't there be no one on Istvan III who survived?"
"Few doesn't mean none."
Soshyan felt that there seemed to be a hint of smile in Brother Said's voice.
"What I said is correct, Captain Thor, or should I call you...the 34th Thousand Soldiers, the first Eagle Master of the Death Eagle."
