Chapter 378 The Eye of the Empire

"You! You!"

Breton's facial muscles twitched violently, and he pointed at Calvin with a trembling finger but could not speak.

He was the most typical local noble of Terra, that is, the court noble in the traditional sense.

He had been in the Administrative Council since he became an adult, and had never been baptized by the battlefield.

He had rarely dealt with even the Astartes, so how could he have faced such an inhuman height and momentum?

When Calvin walked up to him and reprimanded him, he felt that he was a mountain coming towards him.

The moment he looked into those eyes filled with thunder, it was like encountering a natural enemy, and the fear at the bottom of human genes was aroused.

The fragile will collapsed the moment it came into contact with the divine soul, and the fragile heart of the mortal almost stopped in the roar like a landslide.

Breton tried to stand up and defend himself, suppressing his fear, but under the huge pressure of facing a god, he could not make a sound after opening his mouth several times.

But Calvin would not give him any more time. After confirming that the mortal in front of him was powerless to resist, he did not want to look at this ugly and despicable soul even once more.

Calvin turned around, and the moment their eyes met, the Imperial Guards Marshal Trajan stood up and signaled.

The other Supreme Lords had recovered from the shock just now, but after seeing the various details on Calvin, their eyes became more complicated.

That was definitely not an ordinary Astartes warrior! Even if there was a special existence that was nearly four meters tall after wearing armor, the innate temperament of each Primarch could not be faked!

The long-forgotten memories were awakened from the minds of these old Supreme Lords. Those details about the demigods walking in the world that were only left in the secret books and family inheritance corresponded one by one with the tall figure in front of them.

It was an indescribable feeling!

It was a kind of perfection that could shock and move you at first sight!

That is the extraordinary that can be discovered at a glance even if it has different characteristics!

Although they have not seen this characteristic with their own eyes, the moment they saw Calvin, they suddenly understood all the seemingly exaggerated descriptions written on paper by their predecessors.

That... is really the son of God!

Calvin didn't need to say anything, just standing there was enough.

The attraction of the divine soul to the mortal soul is like the attraction of a black hole to a celestial body. And this overflowing soul charm, coupled with a huge body with perfect proportions but inhuman size.

Calvin's identity is actually self-evident.

Add to that the news that he went straight to the throne room after arriving on Terra and was able to stay in the man's palace for half a day.

Although his appearance was too bizarre and without any signs, his true identity has actually been confirmed by the high lords.

A... Primarch?

A new... Primarch that has never appeared in any record of the Empire?

How is this possible?

You have to know that the Primarch itself is the highest achievement of human biotechnology.

Even as powerful as the Emperor himself, there was only one successful case in the early days of the Empire, when the technology of the previous era had not been completely lost.

A Primarch?

Appeared after the Emperor himself was trapped on the Golden Throne?

And there was only one person?

Such a huge and expensive breeding project, can it really be completed without the High Lords being able to detect it?

Even if people can hide it, what about the materials? What about the equipment?

This is the core of the Empire's rule. Those who can stand out among mortals and stand here are all meticulous elites.

Various speculations and possibilities were quickly screened and eliminated in their minds, and an extremely outrageous inference appeared in everyone's mind:

This... Don't you really mean the "Emperor's Son" in the literal sense?

The eyes of the Supreme Lords began to become strange, and their eyes with unclear meanings patrolled back and forth between the Imperial Guard Marshal Trajan and Calvin.

Only the Imperial Guards can enter and leave the palace at will, and the one who ordered the Imperial Guards to take the Emperor's genes out of Terra can only be Trajan's instruction.

What does he want to do?

Or what does he want?

Yes, although the Imperial Guards suffered heavy losses in the Great Heresy and the subsequent Webway War, this is a story that happened 7,000 years ago after all.

They don't know what the Imperial Guards have recovered to now, but in the past 7,000 years, the Terra nobles have never lacked the supply of soldiers for the Imperial Guards!

The Imperial Guards themselves have long had the intention to walk out of the palace again, but under the joint boycott led by the Council of State, this proposal has repeatedly been put on the Senate before it is included in the formal bill and died.

Thinking of this, several Terra lords wanted to slap themselves hard!

It's good to have needs! There is the possibility of cooperation when there are needs!

Why didn't they think of this, or no one dared to think of this?

You must know that he Trajan, or their Imperial Guards, really needs a strong man to promote this agenda!

But now everything is too late.

It seems that after thousands of years of waiting, the Imperial Guards and the man behind them finally lost their patience.

They finally decided to break the barriers they had built themselves, and officially use this incident as an opportunity to return to the political stage of the empire!

Yes, the reason is actually not important. What is important is how to deal with the current situation they are facing.

The Supreme Lords calmly pulled themselves out of their fluctuating emotions and began to think about what Calvin's appearance meant to them.

Legion?

This concept, which is closely linked to the Primarch, instantly jumped into their minds.

The Order of the Hammer has been acting out of character for more than a decade, especially after the Antarctic Charter Conference, it was rumored that they had completed the integration of power within the Inquisition.

But they didn't understand what the Order of the Hammer relied on to make the other two major orders willing to retreat and to bring together countless small factions.

This required a huge "cake" to do it. They originally couldn't figure out what this "cake" was, but now the reason was found.

A new legion!

A legion that has almost endless recovery ability when the Primarch is alive, and is not restricted by the Astartes Codex!

Thinking of this, the high lords all looked at the person in front of them, but then gave up the idea of ​​hostility.

The only thing that can restrict the existence of an Astartes legion supported by the Primarch is another similar legion.

Does the Empire have a second Primarch now? If not, what can they do even if they unite all the current Astartes Chapters?

They can’t fight, and with the support of that man, this will never happen.

Then all they can do is obey, and only by obeying can they continue to retain their rights!

And only by preserving their own strength can they have the opportunity to continue to get more!

Fortunately, this is not a "League Master" from the Great Crusade era.

The high lords sighed.

Otherwise, with their prestige, old subordinates, and countless connections they established in the process of recovering territory during the Great Crusade.

The scene of a call from a high place and followers like clouds, the high lords may not even have the opportunity to pledge their loyalty.

And Calvin's subsequent behavior also "confirmed" their guess:

After two guards dragged Breton, who had fallen to the ground, away, Calvin, the new Supreme Lord Inquisitor, ordered Nicholas behind him to read out Breton's charges in person, and also told them something that was both within their expectations and beyond their imagination:

"According to the investigation of the Tribunal, the former Minister of the Administrative Council was murdered.

The murderer was the successor Minister, the former Speaker of the Imperial Senate, and the First Duke of the Empire, Reinhard von Scard-in-Bulmertz-ze-Breton.

During his term as Speaker of the Imperial Senate, he betrayed the trust of the Emperor and abused the rights granted by the Empire.

Not only did he fund several cults that betrayed the Emperor's beliefs, but he also instructed the cultists to assassinate the former Minister of the Administrative Council, Sir Mero Winston, with the help of intelligence from "some people"..."

The admiral's face twitched slightly, after hearing the "some people" mentioned by Nicholas.

The representative of the Rogue Trader had no expression on his face, but his hand on the hilt of the rapier at his waist was rubbing slightly.

The Pope of the State Church seemed to be in a trance, but after hearing the word, he secretly moved away from the former.

The Martian Casting General, who stood alone because of his huge body, laughed in an incomprehensible way after a burst of electronic noise.

The eloquent statement of the crime continued, but no one cared about Breton's fate.

Everyone believed that Calvin's purpose would never stop there, and the content of the last part of the document was indeed like the second boot that dropped.

While confirming their speculation, it also confirmed Calvin's identity in a sense.

"Therefore, in order to adapt to the increasingly frequent external challenges and to comply with the changes in the internal situation, considering that the Imperial Guard has the conditions to resume its functions.

Authorized by the great Lord of the Human Empire, the Holy Emperor!

From now on!

The defense scope of the Imperial Guard will no longer be limited to the Imperial Palace area!

At the same time, in order to eliminate the many malpractices within the Empire and eliminate all foreign enemies lurking in the Empire.

From now on!

The Imperial Court of Inquisition will officially have a standing Astartes establishment!

The above two units will establish a standing joint combat mechanism to exercise the right to make arbitrary decisions on all possible threats within and outside the Empire!

This department is kept secret from the outside and officially named the Eye of the Empire!"

Update, please vote.

In addition, I will reply to the book friends' questions about the amount of updates.

I really want to write more, but on the one hand, this is my first time writing, and even the first time I have written something other than an essay of more than 800 words. I can't write fast because of my limited ability.

On the other hand, I just crawled out of the hospital, and I really don't want to, and I don't have the money to stay again.

Anyway, I will try my best to write more, but if I cannot satisfy you, I will apologize to you in advance.

Carrying expectations is a very beautiful thing. As an ordinary person, I have never imagined that I would be waited for by so many people.

It is my luck to meet you here, and in order to live up to these expectations, I will also work hard to write.

That's all, thank you again!

Well, PS: I have a friend's book, I will help recommend it:
