Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 116 Disputes and Positions

"Who is in charge here!"

The heavy footsteps approaching the Astartes sounded and approached quickly from a distance.

Calvin, who was observant and had a brain that was rich enough to spare, pricked up his ears.

His superhuman hearing almost instantly calculated the general appearance of the visitor from the weight, stride and frequency, and the latter's true appearance was almost the same as Calvin's result:

This is a highly mechanized body. Except for the torso itself, you can hardly see the human part.

But unlike the traditional impression left by the Mechanic Cult members on Mars, this Inquisitor did not have those unidentified prosthetic limbs and rich detection equipment that was almost abused.

The body was 80% made of steel and was two meters high.

In addition, the ceramic steel armor plates installed directly on the body without feedback equipment made Calvin doubt whether the life in front of him was a human or the legendary "Iron Man".

"Don't doubt my identity, young arbitrator." The other party had obviously noticed Calvin's inquiring eyes, and it was not the first time he explained this problem to others.

"Let's hurry up and see who is the top person here." He had no intention of being polite. He stood in the center of the bridge and looked at everyone present, with a great momentum of being the master.

"That's not the crux of the matter, Inquisitor. Tell us why you are here, and let us hear what kind of situation makes you think it is worth breaking our own routine." Tibers said.

"Okay." He shrugged. Then he said:

"I need your support! This means whether I can save the fate of a planet and even the fate of the lives of tens of billions of citizens of the human empire in the section.

And you must support me and end this farce here before it ferments into a real disaster..."

Demon Inquisitor Rhine Hoffman began to tell people about his experience:

This is not a war, or it is just a dispute about the end after a war.

Below Horison V is connected to a distant and remote galaxy - the Feldman galaxy, which is a small galaxy composed of mining worlds and wasteland worlds.

It has just escaped from a conspiracy based on chaos under the cover of the subspace storm.

The power from the Lord of Tampering had been lurking there a hundred years ago.

When the warp storm began to rage and blocked the only way for this galaxy to communicate with the outside world, which was also the route to the Horison galaxy, the governor of the mining world, persuaded by a local state religion faction called "Hope", began to build a planetary defense weapon, or a festival.

They built a large number of spires around the hive city to pray for protection from the Emperor. (It was later found that the number was 99.)

Under the protection of countless spires, they survived for 99 years with difficulty under the harassment of the warp and the occasional demons that sprang out of it.

In the long suffering, they insisted on their beliefs and maintained the Empire's rule over the planet until the warp storm began to dissipate.

However, this matter was a conspiracy of the Lord of Tampering from the beginning.

On the day when the storm finally dissipated, all the humans on the planet celebrated the end of the long suffering and cheered for the arrival of hope. At the same time, this festival dedicated to Tzeentch was finally completed.

The emotions and fates of all the creatures on the entire planet completely pleased the Lord of Tampering. As a reward, He turned all of them into demons belonging to Him - Terrors at the moment when the emotion of hope was the highest.

This was an inhuman scene seen in orbit after the end of the subspace storm and the arrival of the Star Defense Force stationed in another wild world.

At this moment, the entire nest was stained by the flames of the Terrors that filled it, so that the pink and blue flames could be seen from orbit.

Billions of souls were sacrificed to the evil god of chaos by the cultists who pretended to be "hope" at this point in time.

The howling of their souls echoed layer by layer, making the Star Army stationed in orbit feel terrified.

The Demon Inquisition knew about the disaster here at the first time, and they sent the nearest judge Rhine Hoffman to deal with the incident here.

Dozens of warships of the Star Defense Fleet were transferred here to be on guard and wait for the next order.

The local forces of over one million Astra Militarum, which were several times larger than the former ones, were also transported from the neighboring wild world to the orbit to wait.

Under the leadership of the fastest Astartes regiment, the Goliath Knights, and authorized by Inquisitor Rhine Hoffman, they carried out a large-scale cleansing of the entire planet's surface.

First, after the sector defense fleet was synchronized in orbit, it attacked the hive city with dense light spears like rain for a whole month.

Then over one million Astra Militarum and an equal number of defense troops were released to the ground.

Under the leadership of the Astartes from the Goliath Knights, they carried out a sweeping cleanup of all space outside the hive city.

The battle went smoothly until the arrival of another Inquisitor.

Erlanti Redwine, a high-ranking demon inquisitor who also came from the Demonic Inquisition, arrived here a week before Calvin and others arrived.

With him came a whole company of the Astartes regiment called the Malice Warriors.

After arriving, they did not participate in the mopping-up campaign that was already in its final stages.

Instead, they headed straight for the headquarters on the track where only the Inquisitor remained.

Obviously, this high-ranking Inquisitor, who was known for his hawkish stance in the Inquisition, had another mission.

After arriving at the headquarters, the other party directly asked Rhine Hoffman, or ordered him to hand over the supreme command of the war zone.

After being rejected as a matter of course, he forcibly took away the power that originally belonged to Rhine Hoffman as a high-level envoy of the Inquisition.

The matter was not over yet. Erlanti, who had obtained power, not only pointed fingers at the battle on the ground.

He was extremely indifferent to these heroic mortal troops, and even treated these loyal empires from the wild world with a cruel degree.

With the support of the malicious warriors behind him, the demon Inquisitor had even prepared the fate of these mortal troops after the battle - a medium-sized plague bomb second only to the level of the extermination order and an orbital strike from the malicious warriors.

This was something that neither Rhine Hoffman nor the Knights of Goliath could accept.

From Rhine's perspective, he could not accept that these warriors who had come here from afar to fight for the Empire under his promise could only end up like this;

From the perspective of the Knights of Goliath, they, who bore the blood of Sanguinius, could not accept that the Empire was so cold to loyal people.

Both sides held their own ideas and positions, and there was no room for retreat and compromise.

The fierce argument between the two Inquisitors and the two Astartes Captains in orbit had lasted for four days.

The conflict was on the verge of breaking out, and the conflict of words was only a hair's breadth away from turning into a confrontation of force.

And with the ground forces already deployed, the two companies of the Goliath Legion were scattered across the surface of the planet, and they could not even gather, let alone resist the orbital strike threats from the malicious warriors and the deterrent suppression of the warships.

In a desperate situation, Inquisitor Rhine urgently needed a new force to enter the field to rebalance the power comparison between the two sides. So that the war gears that had begun to loosen could quickly stop their dangerous steps.

This is what the Grey Knights will face.

"How is it? No battle, no damage. Just a support to eliminate an internal friction between the Imperial Warriors that should not have occurred." You will never refuse me, right?"

After telling the details in one breath, the irritable middle-aged man looked at the Grey Knights present with expectation.

After listening to the Inquisitor's narration, the Grey Knights present also thought about the pros and cons of it, and the relationship between this matter and the philosophy they uphold.

Only Calvin's thinking was very quick, and he suddenly looked at Tiberus as if he remembered something.

"I say, this malicious warrior warband. Does it sound a little familiar?"
