The naval battle on the Ophelia galaxy has come to an end.
At the cost of slight losses, the Imperial Fleet completely left all members of the Chaos Fleet, except for one heavy cruiser, in Ophelia's space forever.
The battle on the Lost Truth also ended. When the Gray Knights who had completed the settlement work found Calvin, all that was left in front of him was the completely collapsed body of "Alfaris", still with the help of power armor.
Maintain a straight posture.
No one knows who this mysterious existence is, and why it has been able to deal with their original body for so long;
Likewise, no one knows what they were talking about that made the Gray Knights accept Calvin's order to let them go when they were about to round up the remnants of Alpha.
But the original body is the original body, and there is no need to question his orders. Although the Gray Knights are puzzled by this, they will only trust and execute it unconditionally;
Again, the original body is the original body. After being able to fight against Calvin for so long, there is no smell of subspace. Although the identity of "Alfaris" has not been revealed, the Gray Knights already have something in their hearts.
Expected.
After their tacit understanding of the battle, they sorted out the entire battleship with extremely strict standards to ensure that there would be no possible omissions.
And as soon as Calvin returned to the Relentless Crusade, Tabers, who was notified through the psychic communication channel, immediately detonated hundreds of melta bombs buried on the Lost Truth.
The huge flame stream started from the plasma reactor of the Lost Truth and spread silently to the entire body of the battleship.
The high-temperature plasma caused by the melta bombs, together with the hundreds of torpedoes launched by the Imperial fleet, held a grand final funeral for the Lost Truth.
"Indeed, some changes need to be made..."
Thinking of the information and warnings "Alfaris" provided to him before his death, Calvin stood in front of the porthole of the Relentless Crusade for a long time.
After cleaning up the battlefield in the galaxy, the empire's fleet finally began to move towards their destination - Ophelia Star 7.
The bridge of the Relentless Jihad is still busy. Although the naval battle has ended, the subsequent finishing work is far more than the superficial repairs and preparations.
All details about this battle, including all orders of the fleet and combat encounters between various departments, will be transcribed into text, and then uploaded in triplicate to the Imperial Tribunal, the Imperial Navy, and the Imperial Administration Council after sorting and revising.
But the Lost Truth is an exception. For all battle records of this battleship, the text will only end before the gang-hopping war occurred.
The details of the battle that took place inside the Lost Truth battleship and the exchanges behind it will not be recorded in any text;
The truth hidden in time, just like the name of the battleship, is destined to be lost in the history of the empire...
This may be a coincidence, or perhaps this is the fate this battleship bore when it was given this name...
The City of Divine Grace prepared a grand military parade for Calvin's second coming. Considering that the world had just escaped from the war, the latter originally planned to refuse.
But several senior members of the Inquisition reminded Calvin that this was not a simple formalism:
After Ophelia experienced this invasion of Chaos, she was in urgent need of official recognition from the empire; the people of the empire who had just survived the torment of war in the entire galaxy also needed a grand celebration to celebrate their victory.
Soothe people's hearts.
Well, Calvin once again reminded himself that he was no longer a simple soldier, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and participate in this celebration on the advice of his colleagues and subordinates.
So another whole week passed. With the help of Calvin in the name of the Inquisition, the Imperial Fleet used the Astartes and the Tindalos Legion hundreds of times between the subcontinents of Ophelia 7.
Airborne strikes help the Empire's state religion to exterminate the rebels here and restore the empire's ruling order here.
And after another month of waiting, the world of Ophelia No. 7, centered on the City of Divine Grace, officially announced that it had restored order and returned to the rule of the empire.
A grand celebration was held again on the main street of the City of Divine Grace, and unlike the last celebration that Calvin participated in, the protagonist of the military parade this time belonged to Ophelia.
The Battle Sisters of the Holy Hermit Monastery and the Planetary Home Defense Force proudly walked at the forefront of the military parade. They (they) used their blood and steel to once again prove their loyalty and strength to the Emperor.
The Astartes of the Imperial Fists and Ultramarines are walking behind. These Emperor's Angels made of steel are themselves symbols of the Empire. They are with the people of the Empire in battle after battle.
When they appeared in the military parade wearing power armor full of scars and taking firm and heavy steps, all the people of the empire who watched the ceremony burst into tears and were excited by this sacred and glorious scene.
But Calvin still miscalculated.
Although he himself stood on the main stage of the City of Divine Grace, he did not personally participate in this celebration.
But when the thousands of Gray Knights under his command once again put on the livery of the "Exorcist Chapter" and walked on the main road of the City of Divine Grace, the people throughout Ophelia who were lucky enough to watch the ceremony, as well as the
The two Astartes companies whose identities were known both showed the same shock for their own reasons.
The people were shocked by the number of Gray Knights because they had never seen so many Astartes appear at the Imperial celebration at the same time.
Thousands of these Astartes giants were wearing armor at the same time and walking in front of the public at a unified pace with guns and ammunition.
The will and determination contained in it, as well as the murderous aura tainted just after walking off the battlefield, made the people of the empire not only feel the fear that came over them in an instant, but also felt great encouragement and excitement!
The reason why the companies of the two start-up battle groups were shocked was that after being separated for less than a month, the number of troops gathered under this master had already reached and exceeded the level of a full battle group! How long has it been since? The two Astartes company commanders could not conceal their surprise as they looked at each other.
And that’s not all!
They are deeply familiar with the general equipment of the Astartes, and they can easily know it from the emblems and heraldry of the Holy Shield-type power armor on these Gray Knights - the vast majority of these Gray Knights are still new recruits! Without thinking, both of them subconsciously locked their gazes behind them.
That tall and tall human demigod is as shocking and exciting as the first sight no matter how many times we see him. He is the reason for the existence of the terrifying military appearance that already has the prototype of a legion in front of him.
Is this how fast the Legion's bloodline reproduces while the Primarch is still alive?
It's really... enviable...
After the shock, the two of them were left only worried about the current situation of their own legion, and the regret of missing their own bloodline when their genetic father was still alive during the Great Crusade.
Feeling the complicated looks between the two men, Calvin responded with a gentle smile.
"The defense of this relic really depends on your loyalty and sacrifice.
This relic is extremely important to our... Chapter.
On behalf of my Chapter and my colleagues in the Inquisition, I would like to express my highest gratitude to all the Imperial warriors who fought for Ophelia!"
Calvin's powerful voice is already magnetic, and under the influence of psychic energy, it becomes even more charming and persuasive.
When his speech rang out on the balcony where the ceremony was held, representatives from the Imperial Church, the Sisters of Battle, the Imperial Fists, the Ultramarines and the Home Defense Force in this small space all felt the sincerity and sincerity in his tone.
Thanks.
The Battle Sisters were the first to break away from the excitement. They have always been proud of their fanatical beliefs and loyalty to the Emperor.
It was this pride that made them reject the "thank you" from Calvin without thinking.
"Loyalty is reward, faith is salvation!
We are all the daughters of the Emperor. We fight for the Emperor and the Empire, so how can we say thank you!"
The representative of the Order of the Bloody Rose, the Order of the Bloody Rose who suffered the most heavy losses in the "Battle of the City of Divine Grace", Mother Superior Edna Silvers replied.
And the Bloody Rose Sister Margarita, who was supposed to attend this meeting, has returned to the throne with her company forever.
