Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords! - Chapter 495

Chapter 493 06.0492: ‘Will I become the flag of the human empire? ’

However, Horatio did not know the decision of the Navy Headquarters. He was in the void behind enemy lines, under radiation control, and communications were silent.

The Epic has now escaped, far away from the terrifying battlefield filled with wreckage and corpses, hiding in layers of gas clouds and escaping.

The entire ship did not receive any news. The officers on the bridge carefully listened to the situation nearby and guided the attack ship to slip through the gap.

The people on the ship were busy making preparations and repairing the gaps.

After experiencing a fruitful battle, Horatio ordered to prepare to return to the area controlled by his own side for supplies.

After nearly fifty hours of sleeplessness, he sat on the command throne. Just as he was about to close his eyes and rest his mind, Thei’s gentle and familiar voice rang in his ears.

When he opened his eyes, the slim female judge had appeared in front of him.

“Captain, although there was a little hiccup, I still congratulate you on realizing your gambling plan. The winner takes all, isn’t it very satisfying~”

Thei walked up from below holding on to the handrail of the spiral staircase.

Her clothes were a little messy, and she seemed to have been severely shaken by the previous explosion, but she still maintained an elegant and indifferent smile, making it impossible for people to see through her heart.

“Since humans began sailing in the ocean on ancient Terra, whether it is a liquid ocean or a starry sky ocean, once you decide to sail into it, it is like going deep into a vast casino and playing a game with the only cards in your hand.

The right or wrong of every decision cannot be known before making the decision; if the bet is won, such a big bet is a model in the file, just like the wonderful gamble of your life just now, I and you can’t refuse this kind of The pleasure of being full of adrenaline hormones. “

The Inquisitor gently touched the armrest of the command throne with his slender fingers and walked around behind him.

“Captain, I know you have a lot of confusion about me. I guess one of them is why I want to be on your ship.”

“You guessed it right, so Judge Thei, why is this?

Well, maybe I should call you Miss They more appropriately, otherwise it would seem too distant. “

Faced with his answer, she let out a soft hum.

“My father, Brigadier General Edward Perroux, was a bold and radical commander like my two Hood uncles.

I also have the pursuit of adventure in my blood, but unfortunately, my age cannot support me to realize the ideal of pursuing adventure, so I chose to find another way.

To be honest with you, I have never believed in the state religion’s claim that “man’s courage is bestowed by the God-Emperor.” Faith is important, but it is clear to me that we are more likely to win if we have the material to match it.

However, we are a wonderful animal, and our courage comes from our hearts and beliefs.

To put it simply, humans have extremely high potential, although our physical functions are not as sophisticated as those of the Eldar; our structures are not as powerful as the green skins; and our technical level is even worse.

In summary, this makes us look fragile, but we have qualities that none of these races have, and it is these qualities that make us the greatest race in the galaxy. “

The girl walked up to Horatio and opened her arms to the vast and colorful void:

“Our collective fighting spirit is far stronger than other races.

Humans are weak individually, but when we are united, we are far more powerful than the greenskins and tyranids.

We reproduce quickly, which is beyond the reach of the Eldar; we live longer, which is beyond the reach of the Tau; we are also very intelligent, and possess a large number of wonderful technological creations, which is beyond the reach of the green skins. and.

We may not be perfect in any aspect, but from the perspective of hexagonal comprehensive survival, we are perfect enough. “

Thei’s words made Horatio’s eyes light up. He looked at the girl, thinking about the age-inappropriate words she said, and nodded slowly.

“You are right, Miss Thei. We are mortals, but the power of mortals can also compete with gods.”

“But we are not without weaknesses. Even though we are extremely powerful as a collective, there are always individuals who are hypocritical, greedy, and have strong desires.” She suddenly changed the subject, turned around, and looked into Horatio’s eyes.

“And if mortals want to explode with such powerful power, they need a great person to stand up and lead mankind, just like the emperor on the golden throne.”

[She didn’t even call him ‘God Emperor’. Could it be that he was also influenced by the preaching of the Order of the Holy Rosary? ] Horatio noticed this.

The Order of the Holy Rosary regards itself as the emissary of the Emperor, and its characteristic is that within its own diocese, the Lord of Mankind on the Golden Throne is called ‘Emperor’ instead of ‘God-Emperor’.

But it’s hard to say. Let’s first listen to what she wants to say.

After changing the topic, Thei walked forward and looked at the sculpture of the Angel of Death hanging high behind the bridge.

“History has told us that this is possible. Sun Lord Macarius almost did it. But just when he was just one step away, the career was destroyed by human shortsightedness.”

As a judge, Thei obviously knew some information that was not allowed to be made public.

Although as a time traveler, I have already heard about these “extreme secrets”.

Macarius once launched a powerful expedition in the middle of the 41st millennium, regaining a large amount of lost imperial territory and expanding the ultimate realm beyond the light of the Star Torch.

But in the end, he died very hastily, and the cause of death remains a mystery.

Horatio understood that Thei meant that in order to avoid shaking the authority of the state religion over the emperor’s deification, the Assassin’s Court killed this meritorious mortal warmaster after some unspeakable transactions.

On the surface, Warmaster Macharius died of an accidental illness; secretly, there were rumors that the Assassin’s Court killed the warmaster who had begun to be corrupted in order to protect the reputation of the warmaster and the empire.

But what the truth is, I am afraid it has long been buried in the long river of history and cannot be known.

“So… you… think that I may be like Macharius in the future as a banner of the empire, mobilizing everyone?”

Horatio was unsure of Thei’s subtext, so he tried ambiguously.

“It’s not possible, but must.”

Thei turned around, her face became solemn and serious: “You have your own mission, you must do this. As the only heir of Spyr, you are destined to live a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife and walking on thin ice.

As for whether you can walk to the warm and soft land on the other side, it depends on you.”

[What does she mean by this? Does she know that I am wearing? Or is there something I don’t know? ] Horatio blinked and thought about it.

“Inquisitor, how did you know this? Can you tell me?” Horatio lowered his voice and said solemnly.

“Please forgive me for keeping it secret, Captain. As you can see, I am a ‘God Emperor Agent’.”

The solemn expression on her face disappeared instantly, and she returned to her previous rather cold and ruthless smile.

“All of us are looking for ways to save this world, in different directions, and as an Inquisitor of the Alien Court, I naturally have some ways, but like you, I am still just on the road.” Thei said something confusing.

Horatio still guessed some clues from it.

There are many orders in the Inquisition, and when there are a certain number of orders, they will start to divide into factions.

[If Thei is a disciple of Ravenno, and Ravenno is a disciple of Eisenhorn, then what is Eisenhorn’s final legacy? What did he discover? Is it related to the previous Book of the Dead? ]

Horatio looked sideways and thought, what kind of amazing secret did this legendary inquisitor discover in his life, and how could such a loyal successor inherit it and always walk on the road in secret?

Seeing Horatio thinking, Thei smiled.

“Relax, Captain. You and I are close comrades who fight side by side. Maybe in the future, you will realize that I am more important than Miss Hood and Ms. Louise.” Her smile carried unpredictable connotations.

“Of course, Miss Thei.”

Horatio twisted his mouth, constantly thinking about the deep connotations hidden in her words, and whether there were any hidden meanings that he didn’t hear at first.

Just as he was thinking, the communications officer relayed an urgent message for help from the Armed Sisters.

“What’s the matter?” Horatio asked, withdrawing his attention.

“Captain! Received an urgent communication from the pilgrim ship ‘Pure White Mayflower’!”

“‘Holy Mayflower’?” This familiar name made Horatio frown.

He seemed to have heard this name somewhere.

Where?

Hiss…

Suddenly, his heavy and sleepy eyelids opened wide.

Isn’t that the pilgrim ship where Sister Arabella is?
