Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

The size of the Phalanx's dock is very, very large. If you forget, let me remind you that the size of the Phalanx itself is about the same as the moon, so yes, the size of the dock here is also exaggerated.

The Infinite Frontier and the Absolute Truth were docked at the dock. Giant fixed bolts locked the two battleships in the dock. The chaotic subspace vortex was setting off turbulent waves behind them, but this had nothing to do with them now. They were safe here.

With the restart of Geller's position shield, the Phalanx was completely isolated from the subspace, and the chaos ships surrounding the battleship also turned into objects in the subspace under the fire of the Phalanx weapons group operated by Helen. The floating wreckage and broken hull will float in the sea of ​​souls for many, many generations.

Of course, it could also be a blink of an eye. After all, this is a subspace where the concept of time is almost nonexistent.

There are also some wreckage in the dock. Those are fragments of the Chaos landing ship. The Chaos landing force on the deck was also destroyed by the firepower inside the ship operated by Helen. Most of the wreckage was thrown out of the dock and joined the army of hulks. , but a small number of wreckage remains.

Vito stood on the deck and looked at the subspace vortex outside. The chaotic sea of ​​souls was churning outside. Most people did not come close. Even the subconscious mortal soldiers automatically chose not to look directly. Subspace, so Vito and Lilith stood here, side by side looking at the sometimes beautiful, sometimes terrifying subspace.

Not far away from them were two warships that were replenishing supplies. Captain Garadon generously gave them the excess supplies on the Mountain Formation. Even after such a large round of consumption, the Mountain Formation's material reserves were still there. The amount is astonishing. If Helen checked correctly, quite a lot of the materials can be traced back thousands of years.

However, the Sons of Dorn and their mortal servants still rely on the stubbornness, discipline and endless repetitive work spirit inherited from the original body to maintain the huge material stores properly. Even the ammunition stored in the warehouse a thousand years ago is still shiny. The sound was loud.

These excess weapons reserves were generously given to Vito and the others as a thank you. The Marines were working with the ship's servitors to transport these weapons and ammunition onto the ship. The entire deck was very busy, with heavy trucks and cranes. Working hard.

Vehicles loaded with cargo passed behind Vito, and Garadon and Celestine walked behind them through the gap between trucks. Vito turned around and nodded politely to Captain Garadon. pay tribute.

Ragnar and Bell also came over. They had obviously just experienced a fierce battle. Lancelot was covered in blood while carrying the sword. His armor, which was as black as the others, looked darker at first.

The four of them came up and exchanged nods with Captain Garadon. Garadon put his iron fist on his chest and expressed gratitude, "Thank you, brothers. On behalf of the Imperial Fists, I sincerely thank you for your support."

"This is what we should do, brothers. In the name of the All-Father and Leman Russ, we will always respond to the requests of the Brotherhood." Olaf also returned the greeting.

Bell nodded affirmatively, and he saluted the company commander with an Ultramarines-style military salute. "Most of the Chaos Demons have still been repulsed, but I believe there are still some remnants hiding in some corners of the mountain formation, but the automatic fire system It has been activated. I believe that this battleship will be purified again in time."

"Brothers, we will shoulder this important task. My brothers and I will purify every corner of the monastery, no matter how dark it is." Galaton said decisively, and he had already begun planning to attack the mountain formation. An overall dragnet-style extermination operation, but all this needs to wait until they return to the empire to receive corresponding support.

But Helen did activate all the systems. She bypassed the servitor's program system, and even terminated its maintenance program to directly forcibly activate the entire Phalanx system, so that the battleship could operate normally after Helen was disconnected. .

But Vito didn't tell them that Helen activated the "self-immune system" that even the Imperial Fists were unaware of. To put it simply, Helen activated some Golden Age automatic sentry robots that were once thought to be decorations or just junk. Now, these suspended self-propelled turrets are searching for and killing Chaos and traitors everywhere.

And they will also return to their standby position before the Imperial Fist returns to the physical universe and brings more friendly forces to check, to ensure that the warriors of the Imperial Fist still regard them as "ancient decorations"

"What are your plans, Captain?" Bell asked, but it was Vito who answered.

He interrupted the giants and asked them to look at him again. The inquisitor looked at Galadon and nodded slightly.

"The subspace engine and propulsion system are still intact. I suggest that the Imperial Fists return to Terra and make corrections and repairs there. Celestine, can you take them back?"

Vito said and looked at the little angel, who shook his head, "Unfortunately, I must lead my sisters to Cardia, where support is urgently needed."

Captain Garadon frowned, and turned to look at Celestine, "Cadia was attacked?"

"Yes, Captain, Cadia is being attacked by Abaddon. The scale this time is very large, and the warp storm is sweeping across Cadia. If I leave, it will be difficult to enter again, and the direct access the Emperor has given me The instruction is to go and help the Cadian Legion defend their homeland," Celestine said, and then Galadon banged his breastplate with his iron fist.

"Then we will go together." Galaton said, while Vito frowned, "Company Commander, you only have a few dozen Space Marines left, and the Mountain Formation also needs maintenance and repair. At this time, go Cardia is not wise."

"No! Inquisitor, no, the Imperial Fist is the Shield of Terra, but it is also the Shield of the Empire. If the shield has been just placed in the warehouse and display rack, then there is no doubt about the shield!" Galaton said sharply.

"It has been proven that we have stayed on Terra for too long. The Phalanx has been in the "warehouse" for too long. It is time for the Imperial Shield to go where the Emperor needs it!"

Vito looked at Garadon and then at Celestine, who nodded silently. Indeed, although the Imperial Fists now only have a few dozen warriors, the Mountain Formation is still a powerful interstellar fortress, and the weapons on it The system and fire control system have all come back online. Under the operation of its intelligent control system, the mountain formation can exert its powerful power on its own.

If supported by this giant fortress, the crisis situation in Cadia can be effectively alleviated. After all, the mountain formation itself can almost rival an entire fleet.

"Besides, Inquisitor, as Lord Celestine said, if we leave and return to Terra, it will no longer be possible to go to Cadia, and I am sure that there will not be many Imperial reinforcements that can enter Cadia now. ”

The company commander regained his composure and said calmly and convincingly, "We will be needed even more there now. Terra is safe, and she is protected by the most powerful force in the empire, but Cardia is not there now."

"But I still need to warn you, company commander, this will be a dangerous action." Vito also said calmly. The company commander nodded silently and then raised his head more firmly, "I have made up my mind. An unsheathed sword is not suitable for anyone." The Emperor has no doubts, and the sword will not be withdrawn now."

"I believe that the Emperor will very much agree with what you said, Captain." Celestine said with a smile. Garadon immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed his head in salute. "As he wishes, I will work with my brothers Let’s go to the sea of ​​fire together.”

Vito also looked at Galaton with a smile. Although he didn't know if the old bastard would be proud of him, Dorn would definitely be. If he were here, he would directly praise his son's decision and not criticize it as always. Any dissimulation and direct praise of rhetoric.

"And we will continue to carry out the mission. I'm sorry, Captain, but I can't go to Cadia with you." Vito said. The company commander who stood up nodded slightly to express his understanding. "Of course, I can understand. I believe you have more important task."

"But before you go, you might as well do the old man a favor." Celestine said and waved her hands slightly. Obviously, no one understood the word "old man" except him, Vito, and Lily.

Vito smiled and shrugged helplessly, "Tell me, what else do you need me to do?" "Go to the meteorite belt of Cadia, where the wolf master Sven Bloodhowl who helped the Space Wolves was destroyed by Al during the Gothic War. What Patton stole.”

"Lord Gorehowler?!" Ragna said sternly, and he took a few steps forward, "Vito, we must go to help Lord Wolf, no matter what we will face."

"Indeed, Inquisitor, now that we have helped our brother warband, it is time to help our own brothers." Olaf also said with certainty, while Vito looked at Celestine in silence for a moment, he He looked at the little angel silently for a moment and then nodded.

Vito walked towards the Infinite Frontier, "Come on, the next battle will be even more fucked up."

Lilith and Celestine looked at each other maliciously, and then followed Vito and left, followed by four warriors.

"Celestine!" Vito shouted from a distance, and the little angel looked at him, "Protect yourself, okay?"

Celestine smiled and nodded slightly, "You too, see you next time." "See you next time."

Vito and his party boarded the Infinite Frontier, Captain Garadon and Celestine looked at Vito who was leaving.

"What is he going to do?" Galaton asked, and Celestine smiled silently.

"Things arranged by the Emperor."
