Chapter 505 Rebirth From the Ashes: Meeting a Close Friend
The instruments in the bridge are ticking, a large number of screens around are flashing continuously, and the indicator lights are disappearing and appearing along the curved wall. The porthole windows are dark, and the meaning of the dark galaxy is fully displayed here.
Only the passing battleships shed light into the bridge. Guilliman's face was lit up by the flames of the propellers. He looked out the window at the endless dark void, and his blue eyes reflected the blue luster, reflecting the A strike cruiser gliding past.
He turned his vision back to the bridge and glanced at the busy command team around him. The bridge crew members were on standby at their respective posts. From time to time, one or two words were heard along with the sound of the instruments running, but overall, The entire bridge was very quiet.
Vito stood in front, holding the Phoenix Sword in both hands and standing at the front of the crowd. The person closest to him behind him was undoubtedly Sarah, the nun, at least she seemed to be, and that's what she claimed.
Sarah sat on the armrest, leaning against her with one leg crossed. Guilliman narrowed his eyes and looked at her carefully, "Have you seen her?"
Bell also looked at Sarah, then shook his head, "No, no, in fact we only met her recently, although the marshal seems to have known her for a long time."
"Yes, I just found out that Lilith has a sister, and she is as beautiful as her." Ragnar grinned from behind. He has been saying all kinds of flirting words to Sarah recently like he did to Lilith, and Most of the time, it was said in front of Vito as always.
But well, no one would doubt that Ragnar was really interested in Sarah, you know, the Space Wolves, they're not serious about anything.
"But then again, when did we meet Lilith?" Lancelot said in surprise, his expression seemed to be reminiscing, "Do you remember? She seemed to appear out of nowhere, just like Sarah. ”
"Hey! Who cares? She's just a beauty, and she's much more interesting. She can tell dirty jokes with me." Ragna rubbed his neck and grinned.
"Be serious, Ragnar, Lord Guilliman is here." Eisenstein reprimanded seriously, and then looked at Guilliman apologetically, as if he was apologizing for his failure to restrain his men.
But Guilliman just smiled slightly, and then started to walk to Vito's side. He glanced at Sarah who was sitting next to him, and then nodded to Cole, who was also commanding here.
"Why are you here if you don't stay with your boys?" Vitor looked at him and asked, Guilliman raised his head, "Where were you before?" he asked.
Vito smiled half-smilingly, and then moved his eyes away, "Secrets, you know, it's an old habit of the Tribunal. I advise you not to ask more questions, it will be of no use to you, and it will not do you any good."
"With her?" "Yes, together, what? Are you jealous?" "Can you be more serious? Stop joking." "Am I kidding?"
Guilliman and Vitor fell into silence for a moment, which made Bell and Sicarius a little confused, but he soon spoke again to dispel their concerns.
"Why did you bring us here? Can you tell me this?" "First of all, I didn't bring you here, you came with me, and you're here with great momentum."
Vito said as he looked out the window at the following fleets. All the fleets of the two expeditionary forces gathered together and surrounded the window like a pack of wolves. They were arranged in the universe, like a great steel wall that was spitting fire and moving forward.
"Is there any problem with this? Or is there something here that you haven't told me? Something terrible." Guilliman asked seriously, but Vito smiled without looking serious at all.
"Scary? No, he has nothing to do with being scary, that's..." Vito said. Suddenly the alarm sounded, the entire bridge instantly lit up with warning lights, and the instruments began to roar like a strong wind.
"Report the situation!" Cole ordered loudly, and a series of responses came from below.
"An unknown target has been detected approaching! It is extremely fast, and it is not approaching from subspace, but from the reality level." "The number of unknown targets is increasing, one, two, thirty! They are approaching!" "All weapons The array is activated, calculating where enemies will appear, damn, they're so fast!"
The radar operator below the bridge shouted loudly, and then he raised his head and saw the unknown fleet that suddenly appeared outside the window. They were black steel battleships. Their surfaces were extremely smooth, like mirrors flying in the universe, even on the surface. The reflection of the Imperial fleet was reflected in the sky.
Those alien fleets flashing green light suddenly appeared, as if they came out of thin air from the universe, but Guilliman could see that they suddenly slowed down after traveling at the speed of light, and then became fixed.
Their speed was so fast that it exceeded the limit of observation by human eyes, and even he could not see their speed clearly.
Suddenly, another warship appeared in the fleet. It was a huge ship, with a crescent shape as a whole. The huge ship slowed down in an instant and appeared in the middle of the unknown fleet.
"Identified, it's the Necron fleet, and the entire fleet is getting ready for battle!" The member below yelled, and more instructions came from around him.
"The Blackmane Wolf, the Sword of Order, the Augustus and the Ultimate Serenity are on target! The Mechanicus fleet's Nova Cannon is charging." "Torpedoes loaded, target on target!" "Light Spear on target!" The void shield is charging!"
"Order, disarm." Vito's voice interrupted the noise, making everyone quiet and look back at him, and then looked at Cole for knowledge. The latter nodded, and then the order to touch the weapon began. issued.
Guilliman looked at the Necron warships outside the window and frowned. He knew what Necrons were. After waking up, he crammed in all kinds of knowledge over the past ten thousand years.
"You brought us to the undead?" "No, to be precise, they came to us. After all, I invited them here." Vito said indifferently, as if he was discussing the weather rather than a powerful army. An alien fleet with technological offensive means.
"What are you doing?" Guilliman asked with a frown, and behind him Sicarius had already walked up, holding the helmet under his arm.
"Lord Primarch, our fleet is waiting for orders." Sicarius said seriously, "Do you want to open fire?"
Guilliman did not answer immediately, but looked at Vitor, "What are you thinking about?" "Thinking about something that can close the Great Rift. Where is the Black Stone Fragment? Hey, Sarah, where is the Black Stone Fragment? Ah. ,Thanks."
Vito searched for it for a long time, and then took the black stone fragments in the box from Sarah. At the same time, Giri saw that the giant ship in the alien fleet in front was also approaching.
It separated from the fleet and flew alone to the center of the two armies, and then stopped there, as if to invite them.
"Cole, move the ship over and prepare for docking." He said to the captain, who also frowned with Guilliman, "Vito, what are you doing?"
Vitor glanced at Guilliman behind him, who also frowned and waited for a reply, "Tell me, Vitor, or I will let Macragge's Glory open fire and blow that broken ship into scrap metal."
"You are really determined to give up, and who did you learn this threatening method from? Oh, okay, I know who it is." Vito crossed his arms and smiled, but Guilliman still had a serious face. .
Vito shrugged boredly, "Well, if you must know, but let me warn you first, you probably won't like it."
He said, "I'm going to find Trazin, he's on the ship." "Is he an undead?" "You guessed it." "Why are you looking for an alien?"
Guilliman frowned and asked, but Vito shrugged indifferently, as if he didn't notice the warning look, "I thought your Inquisition did not associate with aliens, especially those who want to kill all humans. ”
"Didn't I also cooperate with the aliens and bring you Princess Charming to kiss you awake?" Vito said with an ungrateful smile, while Guilliman frowned and looked at Bell who was walking aside.
Bell came to Guilliman, "We have met Trazyn before. Captain Loken was on his ship at the time. He is a friend."
"Friends? Bell, are you crazy! With an alien?!" Sicarius asked in disbelief, pointing to the fleet outside the window, "Do you know how many of our brothers the undead have killed? But you said they are friends ?! If we want to say something to them, let’s say it with light spears and macro cannons!”
"Then you'd better fight with a Necron fleet. Trazin has never fought against the Ultramarines and us. I don't want to break this today." Vito said, looking towards Guilliman, who was also looking at him. .
"Tell your fleet to turn off their weapons. Otherwise, there will be trouble. I don't want to lose half of the ships before fighting Abaddon."
Guilliman fell silent and did not speak, but Cato Sicarius continued, "How do you know this alien? Bell."
"We have cooperated with many aliens. Well, it shouldn't be called cooperation, but dealing with them." "I thought your Death Watch was for killing aliens." "You can kill better only by knowing your enemy, so you have to Deal first.”
Ragnar put in the last word. He put his hands on his hips and grinned, "And believe me, Smurf, it's very beneficial. You can get some useful weapons and so on, and more good things."
"Did you buy it from them?" "Ah, most of the time it's robbery, but they don't mind. We give it back anyway."
Lancelot took a step forward and added more seriously, "Aliens can also use it. Many times words are more useful than swords, such as tricking green skins into intercepting a swarm of Tyranids or something like that."
"Have you ever done this before?" "We have done many things, Smurf, do you want to join us?"
Guilliman listened to their conversation, then turned to look at Vitor, looking into his eyes, which were dark but extremely calm, "I have a condition." "Discussing conditions at this juncture? Okay, just Warm up before talking to Trazin. "I'll come with you."
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately fell silent, and the smile on Ragnar's face gradually disappeared, and he finally said, "Oh, damn, this time I really had a great time."
"My lord." Bell stepped forward to persuade them, but was stopped by Guilliman who raised his hand. Although he seemed to be paying attention to them, he kept his full attention on Vito.
"If you say that this alien will become our ally, I will meet him in person to see if he can be called a friend."
"You really know how to choose your time, Big Blueberry." Vito smiled bitterly, looking up at Guilliman's face, "Someone taught him well before." "You can see it."
Vito rubbed his head, then sighed helplessly, "Okay, okay, let's go by ourselves, don't make a big fuss, okay?"
"My Lord! I am your personal guard, I can't let you take risks." Sicarius immediately protested, but was pushed back by Guilliman with one hand, and he nodded to Vito.
Vito smiled at his face, then turned around and put the Phoenix Sword on his shoulder, looking out the window at the approaching Necromancer.
"He will like you very much." Vito said with a smile, and then Ku laughed, "I have to persuade him not to put you in the display case."
