On the outskirts of the SATA section, as the peaceful space was suddenly broken, the portal to reality on the other side of the universe was abruptly torn open. The "Dead Soul Redeemer", which had been sailing in the subspace for 30 days, finally arrived at the SATA section.
The periphery of the district.
The Soul Redeemer, where Calvin was located, immediately followed the regulations when it entered the physical universe and launched a communication search to the entire sector, and continued to send out strong pulse signals to mark its existence.
Sure enough, less than three minutes later, on the bridge command podium of the battleship, Calvin and a group of decision-makers were observing the star map downloaded from the sector's public channel and comparing it with the actual observed planets. The work area in front of the command podium
Then came the report from the communications staff: The Gray Knight strike cruiser with the existing registration number GK39-01 on the ship sent a communication request to our ship.
After receiving confirmation from Calvin, the communication signal was transferred to the light curtain directly in front of the command podium.
After a burst of noise and distortion of the picture in the initial stage of the link, the long-lost face of Aidan, the current commander-in-chief of the war zone and an old acquaintance of Calvin, the Grand Master of the Silver Blade, appeared on the light screen.
And what followed closely was the voice that Calvin was familiar with and one that seemed particularly unbeatable among the teachers:
"Your throne, who do I see? Is that old guy Walden finally willing to let you out?"
The presence of outsiders, whether it was Mechanical Bishop Klein who came from Mars for a temporary appointment on Calvin's side, who had only been working together for a short period of time, or the representatives of the Inquisition on Grand Master Aidan's side, who were bound to be present at this time, made Calvin unable to act arrogantly. Information about his identity cannot be leaked at will in this channel. Therefore, Calvin, who was unilaterally teased, could only choose to avoid it.
So Calvin straightened his body and pretended to perform an eagle salute to Aidan, and reported to Aidan in a serious manner in the eyes of the light curtain and the people on the opposite side of the light curtain:
"In the name of the Emperor, our ship, the Soul Redeemer, has now arrived at the edge of the war zone and is waiting for your instructions! The ship currently has two Terminator teams and two Interceptor teams. All members are in good condition and can participate in combat missions at any time.
!The crew and supplies are complete, and the weapon array is theoretically 75% full. In addition to special equipment, conventional weapons and ammunition are sufficient. In addition, in compliance with the requirements of you and the frontline headquarters, our ship successfully received the designated supplies in the Hesus star field, and the quantity
If it is consistent, please inform us of the specific handling method."
"Ahem..." Aidan no longer pretended to be relaxed after Calvin kicked the ball back.
When it comes to specific combat matters, he must also respond with the same serious attitude.
After carefully listening to the entire content of Calvin's report, when he heard the last sentence about designated supplies, he used his eyes to communicate with the Tribunal representative who had been observing the light curtain for a long time.
Then he looked at the representative of the Star Boundary Navy on the other side and said: "According to our reservation plan, there were originally three troop shortages. Now that the Redeemer of Souls has arrived just in time, this mission was not suitable for the Marines to land.
, let them withdraw”
After speaking, Aidan stretched out his hand and pointed to the situational awareness holographic image of the star sector at hand:
"Here, Alfaran No. 1; here Alfaran No. 9, and here Alfaran No. 15, there are already sources of infection, and the team we sent is already on the way..."
Having said this, Aidan moved his hand back and knocked it to the side of the Efflan galaxy in the SATA section, which is the SATA galaxy where all this originated: "And here, SATA 4, SATA 5, recently
The malicious warrior group that arrived is already on its way to log in. But here! SATA No. 1! No! Something is obviously wrong here!"
Having said this, Aidan opened his eyes wide and looked at the high-ranking officials and judges around him. He said in a solemn tone: "The silence here keeps me awake at night. With our treatment of these Nurgle brats,
Judging from handling experience, if there are no 6 sources of infection, there is no reason for the seventh one!"
Having said this, Aidan once again clicked on the center of the SATA galaxy: "As for such spread and blasphemy across galaxies, I never believe that the capital world, which is an administrative center and transportation hub, has no problems!"
The quiet silence originally represents a certain degree of recognition, not to mention which of the people present has not gained his status and dignity by serving the emperor for many years in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
The previous certain degree of ignorance or silence about SATA was not so much the negligence of these long-time veterans, but rather the helpless choice they made when faced with a complicated war situation and insufficient troops.
This hidden potential threat point is still the capital world of the sector with the strongest population and defense power. If there is indeed corruption, then without the direct intervention of the Astartes, mortal troops can easily be sent to land.
The result in exchange is mostly a loss of people and land.
And when the chips in hand are not enough, every time the chips are reduced by one point, the enemy on the opposite side will be calmer.
Therefore, the emperor's wealth must be cherished, whether it is gold coins or silver coins, even if it is a piece of copper like an IG head! It must be spent appropriately!
The empire is not afraid of casualties, but the empire will never allow wanton waste!
When conditions did not allow for it, these veterans of the empire tried to find ways to delay the war before it worsened. Complex problems were simplified, problems that could not be taken into consideration were shelved, and problems that mortals could not solve were left to the emperor, and they tried their best to do their best.
Only by not being knocked down by these things can we maintain our best condition and serve the emperor.
This is also the experience of these people who have been fighting against chaos in disadvantaged situations in their past service lives. But once conditions permit, Aidan, who has long been suspicious of SATA Star One, will never tolerate this kind of him.
A threat at a key position that has long been regarded as a thorn in the flesh.
The immediate decision to launch a surprise sweep was how the Grand Master of the Gray Knights, as the top frontline leader, handled the situation.
Inquisitor Telinka Lyudmila, who has been silent on the side, has a very interesting position in the inquisition.
The Holy Hammer Order to which she apparently belongs and the Purity faction to which she actually belongs have always taken the most radical stance on matters such as Chaos Contamination.
Being able to remain silent for a long time in such a situation, apart from being forced by the situation, it can only be said that she has established a very solid trust in her long-term cooperation with her great mentor Aidan.
Aidan had already put enough trust in the new Arbiter on the other side of the light curtain, believing that he and the Gray Knights he led were capable enough to complete a raid and clean up a hive world in the capital of a sector sector.
After the mission of possible widespread corruption.
She did not express any other opinions on the candidates for this mission, but only expressed cautious concerns about the number of enemies that might exist in this hive:
"Young Arbiter, I believe in your loyalty and ability, but please remember that if something cannot be done..."
Speaking of this, Terinka Lyudmila paused solemnly. The deep blue eyes under her brow with a long and narrow scar seemed to be full of memories. The tightly pursed corners of her mouth showed that she might have remembered something.
Very bad memory.
But being so strong, she quickly got rid of the negative emotions caused by this memory, and continued to speak to Calvin on the other side of the light screen:
"If nothing can be done, please return to orbit immediately. I, the Judge of the Demonic Tribunal, Telinka Lyudmila, the internal code name of the Tribunal is S12-H93-00-OP-9502, authority β, temporary authority a. I officially authorize you
Ship, exercise the right to 'kill rats'! The specific usage process should be included in your emergency record, code 9954, and the equipment used is the batch of materials you accepted. Don't worry about subsequent censure, I will record your exercise of authority.
Signature."
Calvin, who was on the opposite side of the light screen, was originally listening to the orders from the headquarters with a serious expression, but after hearing the word "rat eradication" from the inquisitor opposite, his eyes couldn't help but widen.
His mind couldn't help but think: Has the matter reached such a critical situation? Or should we say that Calvin's first mission will start with personally issuing an "extermination order"?
