Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

Chapter 424 Legion Era: Two Years of Change

Reina stood on the back rail of the bridge and looked out the window. She soon heard a rush of footsteps behind her. Reina turned her head and looked at Vito who quickly opened the automatic door and entered quickly. He was buttoning up his shirt as he walked, and his messy hair made him look quite tired.

"Good morning, Judge Lilith didn't follow you?" "She wasn't feeling well and stayed in the room to rest, so I was alone." Vito said, buttoning up his collar and walked up, leaving Lily alone. In the bedroom, all the curtains were closed, and the light of Emperor Terra made her feel uncomfortable.

But it's no wonder, after all, she is a demon. Her sister, the remaining three and their subordinates usually dare not even look at the cold golden sun, let alone be directly exposed to the brilliance of the Throne of Terra. In front of him, the average demon would probably be burned to ashes.

As a member of the Evil God and one of the two queens of the Slaanesh Demon, Lilith would not be burned to ashes just by looking at Terra, but it would indeed make her particularly uncomfortable. According to her own words, It's like having menstruation around the clock.

When Vito left, she had already started to smash things because of the pain. If he hadn't run so fast, she would probably have treated him as something she could smash, so it was better to leave her somewhere.

"Okay, how's the situation here?" Vito said, putting one hand on the armrest and putting the other hand on his waist. He looked at Reina with a smile. The latter also smiled and put his hands behind his back. Behind him.

"As you can see, we have arrived at Terra. The voyage has been smooth. The ship has not been invaded by demons and there has been no damage to the hull. The crew's mental state is also in good health."

"Tell me something I don't know." Vito said sideways, and Rena in front of him smiled and raised her head to look out the window, "We received a warm welcome, and it seemed that everyone on Terra was here. "

Vito glanced over. He saw the situation outside the window and smiled bitterly, "It looks like it's just short of a red carpet, right?"

What's going on outside the window? That is to say, there is an entire fleet densely arranged in the orbit of Terra, and their cannon muzzles are precisely aimed at the Emperor Dream. Vito guessed that it may be a bit technical to fire a salute in space, so then The muzzle of the cannon was probably filled with macro-cannon shells as big as a building.

The Emperor's Dream was surrounded by an entire fleet. They formed a compact battle formation around the front of the battleship, and there were more battleships on the left and right wings that were maneuvering quickly. After they flew past the Dream on both sides, After a quick detour, the Fantasy was surrounded in the middle.

Vito glanced at a battleship outside the side window of the bridge. It sailed to the flank and quickly corrected its posture. The macro cannon on the side turned its muzzle and aimed at the Emperor's Dream. The light spear turret above the hull also With a burst of automatic cannons turning around, countless black hole muzzles were aimed at the golden giant ship.

"We look like jelly beans dropped in the middle of a swarm of ants, right?" Vito said with a smile. This description is very suitable. The entire Emperor's Dream is surrounded by densely packed battleships, and the black patch looks like The ants were so huddled together that they even obscured part of Terra's surface.

"Captain, the other party has a communication signal." The commander below raised his head and shouted. Vito glanced at Reina and then looked down, "Put the signal to the screen."

"As you command, sir." Chief Bird said and clicked on the keyboard in front of him. He then raised his head and looked at the huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of him. A loading interface quickly appeared on the glass window. After the loading screen disappeared in a blink of an eye, It was replaced by a communication screen, and a navy captain appeared on the screen.

The captain was wearing a captain's hat and the golden uniform of the Sun Fleet. His huge image was projected on the huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of Vito. "This is the Terra Air Defense Command of the Sun Fleet. Identify your identities immediately."

"This is the flagship of the Sun Fleet, the Emperor's Dream. This is Captain Reyna next to me, and I am Marshal Vito Constantine. If possible, ask your people to remove their guns now."

Before Vito finished speaking, he was interrupted by a short siren. The fire control officer on the side wall looked at the screen in front of him and turned his head, "Sir, their fire control radar has locked on us."

Vito shook his head and raised his head. He leaned on the armrest and looked at the huge screen in front of him. He looked at the captain, "Don't you understand? Do you know who you are pointing the loaded gun at?" ?”

"It's very clear, but according to our records, the Supreme Marshal disappeared two years ago and his whereabouts are still unknown. And the ship you claimed disappeared ten thousand years ago, so there is only one reasonable explanation for this. You It was heretics who came to infiltrate Terra."

Vito shrugged and waved his hand helplessly in front of his face, "Have you ever considered another possibility, that is, I am real and the boat under my feet is also real?"

The captain frowned and stared at Vito. He said something to someone off-screen and then turned back to the screen, "Surrender immediately, or you will be beaten into a sieve!"

"Sir, do you need to raise the void shield?" the Bird Diviner asked from below, "No, no need."

After speaking, Vito looked at the serious-faced guy in front of him, trying to appear intimidating. He didn't know that if they opened fire, the ship they were "surrounding" could sink them all in the blink of an eye.

The Emperor's Dream is the prototype of the Glory Queen, and it is more powerful than the Glory Queen itself. When the Emperor's Dream was rebuilt, the cost issue was not considered, but it was purely an experimental construction. He set an ambitious goal to build the most powerful battleship class in human history.

They did succeed. The Emperor's Dream and its sister ship Blofax, the Emperor's vehicle, are undoubtedly the most powerful first-class battleships in the Empire since the Golden Age until now. However, The shortcomings are also obvious. When it was originally built, it was purely for the sake of awesomeness, and the construction cost was ignored, so the final cost list was also insanely long and expensive.

At that time, the Mechanicum calculated that building a warship of the same level would take up an entire forging world and take a century to complete. The resources required would be equivalent to an entire expedition fleet, so roughly speaking, the Emperor's Dream The ship is approximately equal to an entire fleet, and the firepower is also equivalent to an entire fleet.

So you understand now, he said that if Vito doesn't surrender, he will beat them into pieces. Ha, if they want to do it, they have to bring several flagships of the founding battle group here, so that this statement can be like a threat. Rather than a joke.

A smile appeared on Vito's face. He stood up and looked at the captain, "What's your name, Captain?"

"What?" the captain said in confusion. His face was full of confusion and surprise, but Vito in front of him laughed and stood in front of the image with his arms folded. "Your name, rank and number."

"When I go to find Guilliman I have to tell him who caused this accident, who opened fire on me, and why I reduced the entire defense fleet of Terra to scrap, so tell me your name. ”

Vito's words suddenly frightened the captain. He watched Vito hesitate to speak, and after a moment of thinking, he talked to someone off-screen.

He looked back after a moment, the threat on his face was much less, he cleared his throat and his voice became much calmer, "Stop your jump and propulsion engines, we will send people to board the ship to confirm your identity, and then we will Can"

"You? You are just an ordinary captain who cannot survive a major general, but you are ordering the Supreme Marshal to accept your inspection. Don't you think this is a bit of a serious overstep?"

"I remember that the Imperial Navy handles this kind of disrespectful behavior very seriously. Should I report it directly to your superior, Admiral Bona, Lord of the Navy, or tell Guilliman directly? You choose one."

The captain was stunned for a moment. His eyes glanced left and right and then he moved closer to the screen. His voice became extremely respectful and humble, "But, I, I am just obeying the admiral's order. If I let you go directly , I will be dealt with by military law.”

"That's easy, ask your admiral to see me, and I'll talk to him directly." Vito crossed his arms, his voice was calm but full of majesty. The captain was stunned for a moment, "Only senior officers can meet the admiral directly." "I am the Supreme Marshal. Is there anyone with a higher rank than me?" "No sir, I will do it right now." "Hurry up, I don't have much patience."

As the captain spoke, the screen immediately cut off. Vito stood there and looked at the smiling Reina beside him. The former shrugged with a smile on his face, "Just get used to it. It's more efficient for the current empire to scare people like this." ”

Indeed, the cut-off communication screen quickly jumped out again. The Imperial Navy's Sky Eagle emblem spun in a circle and quickly fragmented into a human face. A man wearing the uniform of a senior navy captain with shoulders. The navy captain with four Terra Venus hanging on it appeared.

He held his hands in front of him and looked at the screen with a serious face, "I am Admiral Cole, identify yourself immediately, or I guarantee that I will blow you into the Eye of Terror within a few seconds."

"Cole?!" Vito exclaimed as he looked at the person on the screen. The latter also raised his eyes and saw Vito. After Cole was stunned for a moment, he immediately put his hands on the table and moved forward, his eyes close. Come and look at the holographic image.

"Vito?! Your Majesty, my eyes are not deceiving me?" "Yes, it's true." Vito raised his hands with a smile and turned around in front of the huge image of Cole. Let him look at his whole body.

"Wait a minute, you disappeared for more than two years, and then you suddenly appeared again? And how did you bypass the defenses around Mandeville Point and jump directly to the sky above Terra?"

"What about the ship under my feet, the Emperor's Dream? Isn't she beautiful? Don't drool." Vito stood in front of the screen with his hands on his hips and said with a smile, while Cole on the projection in front of him tilted his head. He fell silent, rubbing his head as he comprehended the explosion of information.

"Tell me something only you and I know."

Vito shrugged with his hands on his hips, "We went to the Victoria system to deal with the local gene stealers who had infiltrated the upper echelons, and before calling the Hive Fleet to deal with them, Ragnar raided several training cages in the training room, and basically all of them were destroyed. The space husky was beyond repair, so we had to throw it away and replace it with a new one.”

"You warned Ragnar that if he dared to dismantle another training cage, he would be stuffed into a macro cannon and shot into the star. He did not dismantle it after that, at least for a while, and then he started to dismantle it again not long after. , you didn’t stuff him into the barrel, and since the muzzle of the macro cannon is so big, it’s not suitable to stuff him, so I recommend tying him to the torpedo and shooting him out.”

"Fuck, is it really you?" Cole said in shock. Vito in front of him smiled and shook his head, shaking his body back and forth like a tumbler. "If it's true, can you believe that I am not a Chaos spy? Did your men put down the guns pointed at my head? He was afraid that they would go off in a hurry, and then I would have to shoot you."

Cole looked at the weird smile on the face of the lunatic in front of him. He rubbed his head and smiled silently. Then he put the bag on the table and leaned back on the chair, "You... You idiot, you just came back after two years of wandering, and you seem to have a lot of new friends.”

"We are old friends, so can we enter the port?" Vito smiled and leaned on the armrest, swinging his fingers on the side of his head to point the Terra track ahead. Cole looked at him and smiled again and again. Shake his head.

"Okay, let's find a big dock. Your boat will probably take up a few parking spaces." Cole said, standing up with his hands on the chair behind him, lowering his head and getting closer to the edge of the screen, but only a few faces appeared. At the edge of the screen.

"I'm going to inform Lord Guilliman and Ragnar that you want to torpedo him out."

"Wait, the husky is here too? Who else? Caliban orange cat?" Vito smiled strangely, but the smile was full of sincerity. Only half of the face in front of him was smiling on the screen. Cole stood up with his hands on his hands, and now only his waist was left on top.

"Everyone is here. A lot of things happened while you were away. Let's talk about it when you come." "I'm really looking forward to it. Oh, by the way, I forgot to congratulate you on your promotion, General." Vito said in a particularly serious tone. Cole also laughed at the last word "admiral", and he reached out and moved closer to the control panel in front of him.

"Enter the port as soon as possible, I will inform them, don't be late."

Cole said as he pressed the button in front of him to turn off the communicator, and his voice suddenly stopped. Vito stood up and turned around and patted Reina on the shoulder as he walked past her.

"Let's enter the port. Terra hasn't been on such a big ship for many years, so the pier is relatively narrow. Be careful not to scratch her." Vito smiled and patted Reina on the shoulder, then started to walk towards the bridge. In the direction of the exit, the automatic door quickly opened after sensing the arrival.

"I have a lot of friends to introduce to you. They are a bunch of weirdos. You will like them." He said and walked into the automatic door. The door was closed immediately. Reina looked at the closed door and smiled. After laughing, he turned and looked out the window at the majestic Terra.

"Get ready to enter the port, we're home."
