Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind

The Dark Angels' belated support left many officers in the Klenna Defense Force dissatisfied.

When the mortals of the Imperial Guard overwhelmed the Chaos Terminators on the asteroid base with a tragic battle loss ratio of thousands to one, where were the Deathwings that the Dark Angels were so proud of?

When the Imperial Navy fought desperately with the Chaos Vanguard Fleet, and the flagship Silesian Wind was blocked and sunk by the Queen of Glory, the Emperor's Pride, where were the Unyielding Truth and the Stone Fortress?

Until now, the war is over. The Adeptus Mechanicus is registering the battleships purchased from the Star Destroyer, and the priests of the Anglican Church have begun to preach and appease the survivors... The Dark Angels who swore to protect Krentalina back then have Coming in a hurry?

For a time, both the official and the public condemned the Dark Angels Chapter.

But soon, these voices fell silent. Because there is a more important news, which was delivered to the Kerentalina galaxy along with the dusty stone fortress:

—The Primarch has returned.

The Emperor's son of God, the Primarch of the Dark Angels, the Lion King who had disappeared for more than ten thousand years: Lion El'Jonson, once again appeared in front of the eyes of the Human Empire.

At the same time, the Dark Angels also shared the battle report with Krentalina, clarifying that their refusal to save them was not intentional, but they were jointly attacked by the Chaos Warmaster Abaddon and the Great Demon of Slaanesh and were unable to escape. The boulder is paralyzed, and the Indomitable Truth has not returned from the trip. They can't protect themselves, let alone support this side.

Of course, at this time, no one cared about the reason for the Dark Angel's lateness.

Just because the original body has returned! The entire Kelenna sector is boiling!

"Oh my God! There is no more exciting news than this!" Genevia, who not long ago invited Russell to her room for in-depth communication, was excited at the moment, with her face full of reverence and excitement.

The vast majority of people in the empire are believers in the state religion. Even those who don't believe in the nonsense of the state religion will most likely worship the emperor, and the generals of the imperial navy are no exception.

Genievia is a soldier, and only a soldier. She has never been involved in anything other than fighting against the Emperor's enemies all the time. For a pure person like her, the return of the original body is mostly a feeling of reverence, which is similar to the wonderful feeling of heroic epics becoming reality, and mythical characters stepping off the curtain and coming to you...

But Benhardt Medius’s attitude toward this seemed a bit subtle.

Obviously he has some special relationship with the Dark Eldar of Commorragh. In addition, the return of the original body will also have some impact on his authority in Krentalina. Generally speaking, it is not good news.

As for the attitude of the Adeptus Mechanicus towards this, it is even more interesting. This is related to the identity of the Lion King - among all the Space Marine chapters, the Dark Angels are the one with the most distant relationship with Mars. Since the Legion period ten thousand years ago That's the case, even more so now.

Because almost all violent institutions in the human empire rely on the technology and equipment support of the Adeptus Mechanicus. From the invincible Queen of Glory to the laser rifles in the hands of the Astra Militarum's top soldiers, they are all handcrafted by the Adeptus Mechanicus. They all need to be maintained by Mekhan believers.

But Dark Angel is different.

The Dark Angels are the only Space Marine chapter that does not need to rely on the Adeptus Mechanicus to provide armaments, but can produce its own equipment in a closed-loop internal loop.

Lane's return will inevitably mean the rise of the Dark Angels, and a sharp increase in the voice of a violent organization that is completely independent of the Adeptus Mechanicus within the empire... This is something the Adeptus Mechanicus is absolutely not happy to see.

Underneath the warm atmosphere of the Primarch's return, there are turbulent and destructive undercurrents.

"Huh...interesting." Russell saw the reactions of all forces, but did not express any opinions himself.

The historical process of this universe has completely changed because of his arrival. Originally, the first Primarch to return should be Robert Guilliman, the genetic father of the Ultramarines, but now the first to return is Lion Lion.

Lion doesn't have Guilliman's rational mind and business skills. He can't even manage his own three-acre land in Caliban. Russell is now very curious, how will the awakened Ryan react after learning about the decaying status quo of the human empire and the hopeless degree of madness in his own children?

…But that’s all for later.

"The most urgent task is to repair the star gate of the Star of Hell and have a business negotiation first." Russell sighed, said goodbye to Genievia, who wanted to keep him overnight, and returned to the Pot of Greed.

The subspace storm has dissipated, and Russell has no intention of meeting Ryan here.

Start the jump engine and target the star.

The cabin of the Kettle of Greed is loaded with a large number of finished parts produced by Gray Wind. With the help of these finished parts, Russell can help the oil guys who are doing the engineering work in Kuhaha on the Star of Hell to assemble the stargate as quickly as possible. .

And when Russell went to the moon planet, Ryan came to Klentarina to attend the victory parade, and everything returned to calm...a violent subspace crack, in a vast silence in the northeast of Klentarina sector The starry sky was quietly torn open.

This warp rift was not maintained through the blasphemous rituals of the cultists, but was torn open by the ship's warp engine, so this chaotic scene did not last long before disappearing. From the rift in the subspace that briefly opened, a human ship covered in bruises stumbled out.

This is a very famous battleship. Her body is covered with broken wing reliefs, and the bow is inlaid with a fragmented blood ruby ​​pattern.

The children of Sanguinius fought in her across the stars, saving human colonies one after another from the enemies of the Emperor. She also once carried the Angel Death Company, who was desperate for death, into the body of the Void Whale dominated by the power of Chaos, and killed the Khorne army with no end in sight.

She is the Blood Angels sub-chapter, the former flagship of the Crimson Noble Chapter, the "Blood-Drinking Sword" strike cruiser.

After the Crimson Upstart Chapter was called into the 9th Expeditionary Fleet, the highly decorated Blooddrinking Sword no longer served as the flagship. Instead, it was thoroughly upgraded and refitted in the dock and then merged into the Taipei fleet. In the expedition team. In addition to the subspace engine originally equipped, the Blood-Drinking Sword is also equipped with an additional biological warp engine. It is an extremely rare ship that possesses two means of faster-than-light travel at the same time.

It was precisely for this reason that she was able to escape from that horrific catastrophe with the remnant army of the Crimson Upstart, sheltering the last hope and all the ideals of the Angel's children, and barely surviving.

"Calibrating the space-time coordinates, where did we drift on the turbulent ether?" In the cabin of the Blood-Drinking Sword, a blond man with a weathered face and scars on his power armor asked in a deep voice.

"We are now in year 015 of the 40th millennium. We are in...the Eye of Terror star field, near the Klenna sector." A space warrior wearing bright red power armor with four mechanical arms hanging behind him answered. : "There are only two of us left, Captain Saraf, what should we do next?"

There are very few examples of Space Marines who have equipped themselves with mechanical arms, but he is an exception because he is a Techmarine who believes in the Ohm Messiah rather than directly worshiping the Emperor or Sanguinius.

Chapter Master Saraf, Technical Sergeant Oritos, these are the entire Crimson Upstart Chapter... no, all the survivors of the entire 9th Expeditionary Fleet.

"... Even if we only take our last breath and shed our last drop of blood, our responsibilities must be carried out." Captain Saraf gasped and put a hand on his chest, looking back and staring at the cabin behind him. of great sacred objects.

"Yes, Captain, I swear by the blood of Sanguinius." Technical Sergeant Oritos said, staring in the same direction with the Captain. It's just that the eyes are less fanatical and more pious.

In the cabin of the Blood-Drinking Sword, on a metal circular platform surrounded by dozens of corpses of Space Marines from the Crimson Noble Chapter, lay quietly a crystal coffin shrouded in a stasis field.

Lying in the coffin was a tall corpse as beautiful as an angel: a pair of wings that were more sacred and white than the holy light were folded under the body, and the exquisite golden armor on the body shone as brightly as it did thousands of years ago. His appearance is absolutely beautiful, and everyone can see on his face the most unique appearance that suits their own aesthetics. His brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was still worried about something even if he had been dead for thousands of years.

...No, it's not like, he is an angel.

The Emperor's Angel - the remains of Sanguinius.
