Chapter 556 Audience-II, Change of Mindset

"So, this is not a long-planned coup.

It is not the worry of the angels of the Emperor that we have been worrying about since the beginning of the Great Rebellion."

Under the dim light, Vasilev was in his own officer's dormitory, writing his service log.

This is his family tradition, and it is also the spiritual wealth he intends to leave for future generations after his death.

The battleship's clock was ringing, and the sharp sound came into the room through the half-open door, making him feel a certain calmness besides getting used to it.

He raised his head and recalled the memory of the day, then organized the words a little, and continued to write that story...

"The Emperor bless you..." Vasilev muttered.

He was sent to the door of the palace with a mechanical life support device, standing side by side with the foundry priest Fermat who arrived at the same time.

If there were no mechanical arms behind them, the two figures in red robes would be almost indistinguishable from behind.

But it was only others who confused the identity. Since Vasilev boarded the battleship, he has been carefully observing everything around him from the perspective of a high-level professional soldier.

This is a Queen of Glory-class battleship. It is a huge space that is much larger than an ordinary fortress monastery, and even comparable to a star fortress.

This is also the flagship of an Astartes Legion. It is also natural that all the furnishings and decorations that are larger than the size of mortals are in line with the burly bodies of the Emperor's Angels.

One team... two teams... Vasilev counted silently in his heart.

From boarding the battleship to the gate of the palace, at least ten teams of Gray Knights passed by him.

He still knew nothing about the bloodline and origin of these warriors, but a question had already been put on his mind:

If even the warriors responsible for vigilance exceeded the number of a company, how many people were there on this battleship?

How dare they?

Even if it was a founding regiment, it would not be possible to have such luxurious manpower under the constraints of the Holy Code.

Who are they?

What allowed these Astartes to openly ignore the Holy Codex and appear in the Empire in numbers far exceeding the establishment?

It couldn't be a warband alliance, because he didn't see any mark of "Holy Crusade" on these warriors.

It couldn't be an armed pilgrimage of a certain founding warband, because after counting the nine founding warbands in the Empire, there was no emblem that could match the "Sword Codex".

He finally walked to the door of the palace with all kinds of uneasiness and fear. And when the heavy door was pushed open by two gray knights, he finally saw the answer he wanted at the end of his vision.

"Praise the God of All Machines, your glory illuminates all the logic in the universe.

Praise Om Messiah, you allow all miracles to come..."

Lucius's foundry priest began to pray the moment he saw Calvin.

Because the sacred demigod was originally a mortal who did not belong to the world.

Vasilev, who was slow to react, finally reacted and continued to chant "Emperor's Blessing" in his groaning voice.

A Gene Primarch?

Although he still had too many questions in his mind, at least at this moment, this legion that usurped the "Holy Code" had a reasonable origin.

A new son of the Emperor naturally has the right to transcend the code set by his brother.

Well... it shouldn't be considered as transcendence.

The moment Vasilev saw Calvin, he instinctively excused the Primarch.

A legion established after the "Holy Code" is not bound by it. Isn't it?

As for Calvin himself, he never cared about these, because there were too many people like Vasilev, who had thought of too many reasons for him in their minds when they saw Calvin.

"Good day, everyone."

After accepting the salutes of several people, Calvin finally stood up from the throne. Under the dozens of meters high silver relief shadow wall, his burly body looked more and more sacred.

On both sides of the throne, the Grey Knights officers standing in order bowed their heads in unison when the Primarch stood up;

The Guards of the Imperial Guard, Sir Sutherland, representatives of the high-ranking members of the Inquisition, the commander of the Tindalos Legion, the Sisters of Battle and the members of the Death Watch also appeared on one side of the throne in their respective order.

Also, Alnida, Vasilev looked up briefly and then found that the other party had already arrived.

This captain from the Slander Chapter obviously had a long connection with these Astartes.

Just from his current position, it can be seen that they have a close relationship...

Everyone followed the actions of the Grey Knights and saluted the Primarch in their own way;

After witnessing the reactions of the representatives of different forces, several leaders from the Lucius Military Alliance finally bowed their heads to show respect to Calvin.

"Well... According to the imperial convention, in the current war situation, as the highest person in charge here, I automatically obtain the command of all military organizations in the war zone."

Calvin chose to start with his identity. This legal explanation made several latecomers understand that this was the reason why he asked for rights.

This logic is normal in the current empire. After all, they belong to their own systems, not solely responsible to the original master himself.

But this obviously cannot convince the shadow. At least when he was active in the empire, no mortal could refuse his orders.

+So what's going on? +The shadow asked Calvin.

His wisdom and sharpness allowed him to detect the current system of the empire from a simple conversation.

And the inefficiency and chaos caused by this kind of mutual non-subordinate war state are problems he cannot accept.

+Whose order? +

Without waiting for Calvin's answer, he has read too much information from the details of these people's clothing.

Those mature coats of arms and military rank systems prove that the independent systems behind these people have been running for at least dozens of centuries!

And before this "audience ceremony", he has truly seen the current strategic situation of the empire from Calvin's perspective!

+Who is so stupid! Reversely dismantle the existing mechanism? +

His hidden anger has already overflowed from his voice.

And Calvin, who still doesn't know his identity, doesn't know where to start.

From...

+Could it be that damn "Astartes Codex"? +

The shadow's questioning made Calvin stop thinking, and from his silence, the shadow also got the answer he wanted.

+I'll say...+

It suddenly stopped complaining, but Calvin became more curious about his identity.

He knew the Holy Code, could make blunt comments, was not afraid of Mortarion's appearance, and was touched by the existence of the abuser.

So...

"Corax? Is it you?" Calvin asked in his heart, although he himself did not dare to believe it, but this was his most logical speculation.

A brief silence appeared between the two, and in the outside world, the audience ceremony continued.

Calvin's heart accelerated slightly at this moment, that was the uneasiness before some amazing speculation was confirmed.

But in front of those mortals representing their own forces, he had to continue to maintain the appearance of the Primarch.

"Long story short." Calvin did not see any opposition in the eyes of these people, so he simply accelerated the pace of this meeting.

"I need your help, because the Empire needs your strength here."

"And if anyone questions my rights."

He turned around, and six guardsmen of the Imperial Guards had already lined up and moved forward, and so did the representatives of the Inquisition.

Calvin turned around with satisfaction, but did not use the names of two powerful organizations to overwhelm everyone.

He just looked at everyone in the audience, and recalled all the experiences of coming to this world in his heart.

Is he a Primarch? Judging by his body and strength, he probably is;

But is he the Son of the Emperor? If it is from the source and ethics, then he should not be.

He only admires that man, but there is no special relationship created. He agrees with the other party's ideas, so he is willing to fight for him.

"Well, there is actually no other choice."

Calvin shook his head slightly in his heart. If the Chaos Gods in this world were a little normal, he would not have only this one choice.

Since he appeared in this world, he has come to this position today under the arrangement of that man.

It was also from the beginning that he knew the fate of mankind in this world, and he also fought for it to this day under the recognition of the race.

He had no regrets about embarking on this path.

Although he felt a little ashamed to call himself the Son of Man, after being here for so long, his identity had become a status quo that only he was unwilling to face.

He lied a thousand times, and finally he believed it...

Calvin shook his head in self-mockery, and then let go of the last obsession in his heart.

He looked at the people under the steps, and then announced to them for the first time in the name of the Emperor's Son:

"In my personal name: the 21st Primarch of the Empire - Calvin."

Update, Kavan, it's a little late. Sorry!
