Chapter 498: Invitation to Save the Elephants Project
Chapter 498 Elephant Rescue Plan - Invitation
Under the guidance of Taros, Calvin passed through the array of the Moon Wolves, and this tragic ceremony finally ended in silence.
Taros put down the sword in his hand and looked back. Even if he had thousands of words, it would eventually turn into a simple "disband".
And Nicholas, the captain of the shield guard of the imperial army, stepped forward secretly after watching all the Astrata leave, and whispered a key number to Calvin: "Sixteen."
"Hmm..." Calvin nodded slightly, confirming his conjecture, and suddenly found the correspondence between these black shields and specific legions.
"Son of Horus", the next second after this concept flashed through his mind, his eyes just met with Taros.
It was a frank look, and it was also a gamble of Taros.
And Calvin's reaction showed that he made the right bet. This fellow Primarch was not angry about their origins, but whispered when he walked to him:
"Let's go, it's not your fault."
Even, it wasn't Horus' fault... This was the half sentence Calvin didn't say.
In the final battle on the Spirit of Vengeance, the Emperor had clearly known everything that Horus had encountered before the final execution of Horus.
The Lord of Mankind and his beloved child reached an unprecedented understanding in the last moments of life and death, and facing his father who could not kill him, it was Horus who personally begged him for the final relief.
"Kill me... I'm too weak... They are calling me... Please end it all..."
This was the last words of Horus who had found himself and faced the Emperor. The Emperor, who was also deeply injured, could no longer stop Chaos from eroding his beloved son again.
So the man who knew that everything was irreversible finally made up his mind to break away from his father's identity and killed him completely in the name of the Lord of Mankind.
On the damaged Vengeful Spirit, the Emperor faced the corpses of two Primarchs in such an environment, and outside the Vengeful Spirit, he faced the equally tragic and devastated Human Empire.
Calvin's words were a reaffirmation of Talos, and this warrior who had experienced the division of the legion, civil war and even the death of the Primarch finally received the Empire's recognition again after Calvin's official statement.
"Your will." Talos responded in a low voice and took the lead.
The crowd walked through the corridors of the monastery with dim light and shadows and walked all the way to the public training hall. The lighting environment here is acceptable, but the ammunition and armor accessories placed in the corner still show their embarrassment.
"Sorry, we don't have our own reception room and conference room."
Talos stood on an open space in the side hall, and behind him was a long stone table.
"It doesn't matter." Calvin was desensitized to similar environments. When everyone sat down, he looked at Talos beside him.
"I need manpower." Calvin didn't waste time, and Taros obviously had a hunch, and asked directly: "Goth?"
"Goth!" Calvin answered affirmatively.
"No problem, when?" Taros didn't hesitate, but began to calculate the supply of the troops in his mind.
"The sooner the better."
"Supply, ammunition?" Taros looked at the strong man behind him, and then confirmed the relevant material preparations with Calvin.
"No problem, the fleet has enough reserves." Calvin said.
"Equipment maintenance system, and technical sergeant support." Taros added again, and then explained this sentence:
"Although the armor has been replenished with parts, the overall wear is serious, the servo system is obviously aging, and the frigate we got has no large equipment maintenance system at all..."
"Hmm...this question." Calvin looked back at Nicholas "Do we have MKⅢ accessories?"
"No..." Nicholas's answer made Taros slightly disappointed, but the next second was filled with astonishment.
"But there is still a standard unit of the fine-grade MKⅣ power armor brought from Krieg. This time, I just brought it out and planned to find an opportunity to replace the equipment for the Abusers stationed in the Hazy Star Region."
"A standard unit? That means a 10+3 configuration? I see." Calvin thought about it, then turned to look at Taros:
"That is a specially modified power armor. Some parts may have sacrificed strength for the sake of silence. Can you adapt to it?"
"...Of course." Taros was a little overwhelmed. Although they were not professional infiltration troops, as a legion that was once directly under the Warmaster, all tactics were within their practice range.
He didn't know the existence of the Krieg War League Alliance, so he couldn't understand why the Grey Knights had standard Mark series power armor in their combat reserve storage.
And the batches of MKⅣ exceeded his highest psychological expectations, not to mention that they were fine-grade non-mass-produced goods. Happiness came too suddenly, making his emotions a little complicated for a while.
"Then take out the 300 sets first, and then find an opportunity to replenish them for the Abusers." Calvin ordered Nicholas, who nodded and began to contact the battleship.
"Anything else?" Calvin asked again.
"No, it's your turn now." Talos's problem was solved, and he simply looked at Calvin and prepared to meet the other party's request.
This batch of supplies was too precious for them and came too timely. When the other party gave it to them with such unconditional hands, he was worried about whether his people could meet Calvin's requirements.
"The target of the mission has not yet been confirmed, and it may not be limited to aliens." Calvin said, and Talos relaxed a little after hearing it.
The Death Watch is a choice they made in order to settle down, but it does not mean that they limit their tactical functions to this.
"There may be a battle with Chaos..." Calvin stared at Talos closely and asked his most worrying question in a cryptic manner.
"We are the Luna Wolves, not the Sons of Horus." Talos instantly understood Calvin's concerns and gave a decisive answer.
"The local situation is unknown and there may be continuous fighting." Calvin continued.
"No problem, we are good at this." Talos nodded.
"That's no problem." Calvin stood up from his seat and walked out, saying to Talos behind him:
"The items will be delivered to the battleship you are responsible for within two hours. They will be assembled and landed first. The process of changing equipment and debugging can be carried out on the battleship."
"Understood! We can leave within that hour."
Talos stood up to answer the order, and then gestured to the logistics officer on the side.
The latter turned and walked away, while at the same moment the sirens for the gathering of troops sounded in the cloisters of the monastery.
The neat and heavy sound of steel boots echoed the sharp alarm. Although the Astartes who had just dispersed were not clear about the goal of the mission, they still quickly gathered in the cold air.
In Calvin's senses, this army was quickly awakening like a wild beast, and he was ready to leave after completing the purpose of his visit.
"The transfer order will arrive soon, I won't delay you." Calvin stood up and nodded to Talos and walked out. The latter clenched his fists and beat his chest to greet him.
Calvin left surrounded by the custodian guards, while Talos briefly stared at the crowd before preparing to start mobilizing the troops before gathering. "Oh, right."
The voice of the original body came from afar, causing Talos, who had just picked up his helmet, to stop. Calvin's next words surprised him even more:
"When this mission is over, you can come with me."
The first update is to make up for yesterday's update, and the second update is in the middle of the night.
