The Emperor’s Angel of Death

After receiving the message from Soshyan, Azriel, who was fighting on the ground, chose to return to the megalithic fortress in orbit for the first time, not only because he needed to learn more, but also for the next important actions. He can no longer make a decision alone.

Although he is the supreme mentor of the battle group, major events must still be made collectively.

When Azriel walked down the Thunder Eagle and stood at the knight's gate of the boulder, the church bells had stopped, the lights went out, and even the servants who used to patrol the passage had disappeared.

It's hard to say why, Azriel didn't want others to discover his whereabouts, and didn't want others to know that he had been here at this moment.

Therefore he has no servants and no guards around him.

The Knight’s Gate is one of the few remaining ancient buildings in Caliban. Two statues stand on both sides of the gate. On the left side is a proud young knight holding a gun and a chainsaw sword. He is walking towards the world with his head high. It was an old knight full of scars and dusty, his armor was broken, his weapon was broken, and his knees were weakly knelt on the ground, but his head and back were raised high, his eyes looked deep at the door.

As Azriel passed by these two statues, he reached out and gently touched the stele on the right-this is a far-reaching tradition. He felt the smooth touch of his fingertips, and his thoughts drifted thousands of years ago, recalling the past generations. Countless ancestors who did the same action.

Afterwards, he walked into the knight's door alone, and the artificial breeze gently rolled up his green robe and pulled his hood.

After entering the door, Zaharel walked straight to the center of the hall.

The light in the circular hall is dim. There are a few candlesticks on the raised platform, and a few candles are burning. The stained glass above reflects the flickering candlelight. The heroes of the former Legion are depicted on the glass under the dim candlelight. It looked a little savage, and his eyes seemed to be staring at Azriel.

Azriel took off his helmet and scanned left and right, looking for someone's trace.

Darkness enveloped the entire hall, and the light of candles only illuminated the front rows of stone benches.

"Ezekiel?"

He shouted in a low voice, but there was no answer in the darkness.

Suddenly, Azriel turned around abruptly, and saw Ezekiel, the chief mentor of the war group think tank, appeared on one side of the platform, holding on to the railing.

The think tank curator wears an ancient robe and his face is hidden in the shadow of his hood. This can reduce the strange gaze of ordinary combat brothers. Think tanks feel that rumors and superstitions are inevitable for any explanation, and they remain mysterious.

"You came."

Ezekiel smiled and said that his figure was hidden in the darkness. If it weren't for his manners and voice, Azriel would really not recognize him.

Afterwards, the think tank's great mentor took out a lantern like a trick, and the warm light illuminates the position under his feet.

"Everyone is here."

Ezekiel beckoned, let Azriel board the platform.

The Supreme Grand Master nodded and walked down the stairs. These stone steps were worn out and only the members of the inner ring could walk on them.

Soon, they entered another almost completely hidden space. Next to it was a stone staircase. The downward spiral staircase was in the center of the hall and in the middle of the platform.

But most people in the battle group did not know the existence of this staircase, nor did they know that there was any hidden space below.

"I heard that the Soshyan Commander seems to have a new idea."

As the two of them walked down, they talked, the voice of the think tank's great mentor was very relaxed, and there was no such kind of overrespect when the subordinates treated their superiors.

The reason is actually very simple. Every supreme mentor will have a pair of left and right hands. The first thing the supreme mentor does after taking office is to appoint his left and right hands, which are the two closest advisors.

When Azriel took office, the left and right hands appointed were Ezekiel, the think tank great mentor, and Dagone, the former pastor and great mentor. Although Dagone is no longer in office, Ezekiel is still Azriel’s closest and most trusted person. , Is also his strongest ally in the battle group.

Correspondingly, as Ezekiel, the think tank great tutor who has served three supreme tutors successively, his status can be said to be second only to the supreme tutor himself.

The ancient history of the Dark Angel not only brings a glorious history, but also a complicated internal political ecology. As the supreme mentor of the battle group, he is by no means as powerful and free as outsiders imagine.

"Well, his plan was implemented smoothly, and he caught a lord of Abaddon in a fortress."

At this point, Azriel couldn't help but sigh.

"Originally, I almost caught a warlord of Chaos who was a child of cruel abuse, but Azmody temporarily took away the third company, which failed."

"Yeah, I heard that he took people to destroy a cult den, and found nothing except torture and kill hundreds of cultists."

"He was deceived by false information but still didn't know it."

With that said, Azriel had already gritted his teeth a bit.

"Why would he dare to transfer the troops without my consent."

"Azriel, this is his duty. The request for interrogation of the pastor must be put first. This is a decision made by the inner ring thousands of years ago."

"Being an interrogation pastor only requires fanaticism, doesn't it require a little bit of reason and wisdom?"

"Well, put your complaints away for now, we're almost there."

Azriel simply kept silent, and after counting more than a thousand steps in his heart, he finally came to the bottom.

The stairs lead to a brick room with a low arched roof without any decorations, like a house built by a mortal farmer.

Similarly, this room is also circular. The end of the stairs is in the center of the room. An oil lamp is hung on each node of the ceiling. Almost every lamp has a figure wearing a green robe and a hood.

These people are motionless ~www.readwn.com~ their faces are hidden in the shadows under their hoods, arms crossed across their chests.

The eyes of the people gathered were watching Azriel as he fell into the temple in the shadows. A total of nine people stood in full arms around the huge granite table embedded in the deck. This table was dozens of battle groups. The place where important matters of the century have been debated and decided.

Each of them has a helmet on the desktop in front of them. The different styles of painting indicate their command in the battle group. At the same time, there is an unsheathed sword beside each helmet, plus Azriel and West The result is a total of twelve people and twelve swords. This represents the twelve war commanders convened when the inner ring was initially established after the second army was established.

It was at that first inner ring meeting that the secret duty of hunting fallen angels was set, and at the same time all the Unforgivable groups formed their own inner ring organization.

The inner circle meeting of the Dark Angels has a very long history. Before the Great Rebellion, in the depths of the flagship "Invincible Reason" of the Dark Angel Legion, there was a meeting room in which the six-wing commander and the original body themselves were placed. They are here to determine the future of the legion, which can be said to be the early embryonic form of the inner ring.

After the Horus Rebellion and the Caliban Incident, the official inner ring was formed.
