Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

The lights and the dim light outside the window shine on the floor of the marble corridor. This complete piece of marble without any cutting is pure and exudes a natural beauty. In fact, everything here is like this, Vic Te seems to like to maintain the original beauty of nature.

A large number of beast specimens, even those of Chaos beasts in the subspace, have not been modified in any way, but maintain their original demeanor, appearance and structure. Victor hopes to retain this original wildness here. A very unique aesthetic art school, to some extent it is very similar to the Savage Eldar.

The long black skirt trailed across the ground, and his knee-length high boots walked on the marble floor. Vito yawned and stretched comfortably, with several maids following behind him.

Vito had a good life here. I have to say that Victor's mansion was quite comfortable. The bed was soft and had the soothing fragrance of lavender. He had a good sleep without any dreams last night. It was rare that he didn't do those deep things. Trapped in dreams of past memories.

Being a hostess is indeed a rare and comfortable experience. Immediately after Vito took a bath, a beautiful maid came to put on a bathrobe and prepare a change of clothes. When he opened his eyes in the morning, he could have a meal in the bedroom. A hearty breakfast, no wonder those nobles were unwilling to give up their status.

The maids followed Vito through the corridor. The daytime in Comoro was not technically daytime, it was just that the sky had a little hazy light, as if there was always a layer of thick fog covering the city. Everything is shrouded in blur.

Vito reached out and straightened his sword and holster. Although the maids had said that they could carry those weapons for the mistress, they would hand them to him immediately if he needed them. Just like most nobles, they didn't need to take anything themselves. , but Vito refused. He didn't like the feeling of not having the weapon around him. It felt like a wolf with its teeth and claws pulled out.

Besides, you are still in Victor's mansion, so it is always wise to bring weapons with you, because you never know when you will need them.

The hazy light shone on Vito's face from the side, and the outline of the beautiful face was three-dimensionally illuminated in the halo. The black hair was transformed by the maids into a style that looked very much like ancient Greek style. , braids are coiled on the head, and long straight hair hangs down the back of the head, which makes Vito look like a queen.

I have to say, Vito does look like an emperor, although in terms of temperament, he is mostly an immoral idiot.

Vito walked to the door at the end of the corridor, and two maids immediately stepped forward and opened the door for him. Vito looked straight ahead and walked into the private living room area of ​​​​the inner palace. This was not for use. It is the owner’s private space that is used to welcome guests and activities.

A wide silver-white carpet was spread on the floor, and a huge floor-to-ceiling window several meters long cut the wall into several windows. Hazy light shot in from the huge window, illuminating the ground, the walls, and the animal specimens with a milky white light. .

There is a person sitting in this small inner court, the Dark Lord Victor is having breakfast. He is not wearing that exaggerated helmet, and the whole person does look much more relaxed.

Victor was sitting at a long table eating a plate of delicious food. He raised his head and looked at Vito with a smile, "Ah, Miss Melissa, have you had breakfast?" "Yes, "It tastes pretty good." "Of course, it took a lot of effort to find the chef here. If I remember correctly, he worked in an Ark before and was later captured in Comoro."

"But now he serves me. You see Miss Melissa, I am very devoted to my servants, even slaves. They eat well, drink well, live well, and dress well here." Comfortable and classy, ​​and no one will threaten or hurt them.”

Victor said while eating this piece of bacon, he raised his fork and shook it slightly, "I have always believed that paid loyalty and just the right amount of fear are more effective than putting a gun to people's heads to force them to believe something."

Is he mocking the empire? Vito looked at him and smiled, and Victor smiled jokingly and pointed to the chair on the side, "Please sit down, miss. You are my guest, not a servant."

Vito nodded slightly and pulled out a chair and sat down. He adjusted the position of his skirt and weapons to make himself more comfortable in this chair that was not designed for "fully armed" people.

Victor looked at Vito, looking him up and down, especially at the weapon, "Ah, it seems that you have learned many habits from my old friend, including his habit of carrying weapons with him."

"Tell me, does his accent still sound like Gutera's Russian accent?" Victor asked happily as he picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine. Vito smiled silently and leaned on the chair. He raised a Curling the hair beside his ear with one hand, "His accent is Latin."

"Ah, look at my memory, is he still wearing those "lack of aesthetic" boots?" "I think those silver-encrusted cowboy boots are quite nice. If you want to verify anything more, please feel free to do so." Bar."

After hearing this, Victor smiled softly. He put down the tableware, grabbed a hand towel from the table and wiped his mouth. Victor stood up, took the weapon from the deputy Ronnie and hung it on his waist. "In Como Luo, it always pays to be vigilant, let me follow you, Miss Melissa."

Victor stretched out a hand and smiled politely. Vito also stood up and took Victor's hand. He took Victor's hand and walked towards the side door of the inner court. The maids and attendants were about to follow. Meanwhile, Victor raised his hand at the door to signal them to leave.

Vito watched as the maids and attendants bowed meaninglessly and dismissed them. Almost immediately, they all left without any hesitation. Now only he and Victor were left.

Armored combat boots and high boots walked on the floor of the corridor, and the marble with exquisite natural patterns on the inner layer clicked under their feet. Victor admired the statues on both sides of the corridor, and said with a long and thoughtful "hmm" He made a sound, then walked out for a while before speaking.

"I'm curious, Miss Melissa, how did you and Vito meet? Considering you learned so much from him, I'm curious how long you followed him." Victor asked, looking like It was just a casual question, but Vito knew that any of his questions would not be just casual questions.

Vito held his hand and turned to look at a statue passing by. It was a statue of an Eldar hunter holding a long bow. It seemed to be a cultural relic left over from the ancient Eldar empire, but obviously, it was not there. Not in the museum, but in Victor's palace.

"I grew up next to him. That old bastard taught me a lot." Vito said calmly, while Victor immediately became interested, really interested.

"Oh? That's really interesting. Do you mind telling me more about it?" Victor said with a smile on his face, and Vito looked at him with a smile, "This will take a while." "It doesn't matter, today We still have a lot of time before dark, and the place we want to go will take a while, so we have time.”

Indeed, the journey was not too short. The two of them walked through this palace of who knows how big it is. It was like a maze, with countless forks in the road, corridors and stairs filling every corner, and a completely three-dimensional structure. It's as weird and unpredictable as a Rubik's Cube.

Vito felt that Victor had done this deliberately. Without the leadership of someone familiar with this place, even the best assassins would have difficulty finding the way to the inner court. If they flew directly over, they would obviously be defeated by Victor. Here is A fortress, a dark lord rules over the heart of Commorragh.

But although the journey was not short, Vito also took advantage of this time to finish telling the story, completely copying Yiyanna's story. Obviously, the story of his real "little sister" is very unique and wonderful, a story among human beings. The Eldar girl who grew up in society is very attractive on both the human side and the Eldar side.

Even Victor was very curious. Apart from occasionally asking a few questions along the way, he spent the rest of the time silently listening to the whole story, nodding his head in approval and expressing some thoughts, but overall he was a Not a bad audience.

It is precisely for this reason that Vito quietly opened Helen's terminal while telling the story with a smile. The latter silently recorded and scanned the surrounding structures, routes and pathways, and Victor did not notice this.

And when the journey came to the end, the story was finished. Victor stopped outside an arch and raised his head and nodded meaningfully, "A wonderful and fascinating story, so you grew up beside him, even Meili He got the name Shah for you."

"He taught you how to survive in human and Eldar society. Then when you grew up, you ventured out on your own and came to Commorragh, which is "more like" human society."

Victor raised his hands and clenched his fists with a smile. The smile on his face looked very happy, "Ah, a perfect and unforgettable story. We should really write it down and rehearse it into a play." It will be interesting."

"Maybe, but are you sure someone can play Vito? Considering his character." Vito asked awkwardly. To be honest, he really didn't know anyone who could play like him. He might None of them acted alike, but Victor laughed.

"Maybe I can give it a try. I have always been curious about what it would be like if I were to be Vito Constantine." Victor said and walked into the arch with Vito on his arm, and the two of them walked into a There is a huge trophy collection hall, or it may be more appropriate to say that this is a museum.

There are many strange or rare precious treasures stored here, including works of art and ancient sacred objects that have never been seen before, including those from the Eldar, humans, and even green-skinned waggggggge Of course there are also the rags made of energy and the technological creations of the undead.

Its coverage is so wide that Vito wonders if Victor is going to compete with Trazin and Bloodraven in the "ranking list of collectors in the universe".

Vito immediately began to carefully observe and search for the surrounding exhibits. If Victor would place the Jade of Ages somewhere, it would definitely be here.

Surrounded by display racks, display cabinets and shelves that extend into the distance, there are many precious collections stored in every place, even compared to the endless museum in Trazin.

Vito looked around at the rare exhibits. Victor had obviously tried his best to collect a lot of collections for himself. The armors of all the Ark tribe warriors were displayed around him, including some that had destroyed the Ark.

His collection is not limited to the Eldar. All models of Imperial Space Marines from MKI to MKVII are also displayed here. In the exhibition area specially opened for Space Marines, there are armors from each legion and chapter. A complete set, a total of twenty legions, yes twenty.

Vito held Victor's hand and walked to the Space Marines exhibition area. He let go of Victor's hand. The latter said something and went to get something, but Vito didn't hear clearly. Without listening carefully, all his attention was focused on the armor in front of him.

It was a piece of exquisite armor, with blue dots like stars painted on it. Countless adhan lines were delivered on it, cutting the brilliant starry sky into several parts.

The mosaic decorative painting is perfectly integrated with the armor. The layers of riveted armor are painted with exotic patterns. The red headscarf is coiled on both sides of the helmet, and the red silk cloth hangs down on one side. Also stored on the weapons rack is a power spear, a small round shield and a curved long knife.

Vito reached out and touched the numbers on the chest of the armor, which symbolized the Second Legion. Suddenly countless memories came to his mind. His fingers gently stretched out to the blue-patterned armor, and followed the movement of his fingers. It’s the names that emerge.

"Miss Melissa." Victor's voice sounded beside him, and Vito's attention was immediately drawn back. He looked at Victor and looked at the exquisitely carved hilt of the sword in his hand. At the end is a slender double-edged sword with wings spread like a phoenix.

Vito looked at the gems on the scabbards. The gems that were completely pure and flawless were arranged along the scabbard. The crimson gem at the end of the sword hilt was shining like the sun. Brilliant gems.

"I think that your current weapon does not match your outfit very well, beautiful lady, so I hope you will accept this gift, it will suit you."

Vito took the sword, subconsciously pulled out the blade and looked at the ancient Eldar runes engraved on it. The burning runes were burned red, as if the sword itself was the incarnation of the sun.

"This is an ancient holy sword. Legend has it that it was a sword made by Val, the forging god of the Eldar. It was made for his brother Phoenix King Asuryan. It is an ancient artifact. I will give it to you. You will be perfect if you bring it to the party tonight.”

"Tonight's party?" Vito asked in surprise, while Victor smiled and spread his arms, "Of course, there will be a banquet for Comoros high-level officials tonight, and your dear Mrs. Malus and others will be there. Come, I happen to be short of a female companion, and I’m going to invite you warmly.”

"How is it? Do you agree? I hope you will agree." Victor said with a smile, while Vito smiled bitterly and raised the Phoenix Sword in his hand, "After accepting such an expensive first date gift, , how can I refuse?"

"Awesome! And Mrs. Malus has already picked out clothes for you. I believe tonight will be very interesting." Victor laughed and hugged Vito's waist, and Vito also looked at him with a fake smile. He moved towards the undead holy object that stood out from the crowd in the exhibition cabinet not far away, the strange edged triangle that was constantly rotating.

There is a beautiful line of text engraved on the name tag below, introducing its name.

"The jade of decay."
