Praise the Emperor and salute all the Lords.

——————————————————————————————————————————

As you all know, I followed the footsteps of Inquisitor Vito Constantine to Macragge, with the purpose of investigating the attendants of this "extremely suspicious" Inquisitor. The target of this report is Bell Brutus.

Sergeant Bell's full name is Bell Julius Guilliman Brutus. He belongs to the Ultramarines Chapter and his position is a pharmacist. His name is generally abbreviated to Bell Brutus. This is a very low-key behavior. Lords, I believe you have also noticed that his name contains Guilliman.

This is not like most of the nobles in the Empire, who took a sacred name to seek blessings. In fact, the nobles in Macragge followed a naming method that originated from ancient Terra Rome. The components of their names are personal names, clan names, family names and additional names. I believe that all the learned adults have discovered the problem.

Yes, after my investigation, it was confirmed that Bell's family originated from the collateral bloodline of the family to which the Primarch Roboute Guilliman himself belonged. According to my investigation, after applying for "permission" to consult the Primarch Archives of the Macragge Grand Library, I can confirm to all the adults that Bell's ancestor is the Primarch's adoptive father, Connor Guilliman's brother, Gaigu Guilliman, and Gaigu's family is Bell's family.

And Gaigu himself was also Guilliman's most capable archon at the time. He was "affectionately" called Uncle Gaigu by the Primarch. It was also he who promoted and formulated the proposal to exempt the tithe in the Macragge sector, and according to the stupid, unreliable and extremely suspicious claims of the locals, the bill was approved by the Emperor himself.

Emperor above! Such a heretical and untrustworthy bill could never be passed by the Emperor. It must be a lie made up by the locals. Therefore, I solemnly request you to re-investigate and review the rights of the Macragge sector, especially the family of Bell himself! There is a serious possibility of heresy!

Let's get back to the point and see how this "suspicious Ultramarines" is. After I went to Macragge, I was warmly received by the Ultramarines. Obviously, they are more friendly to the Inquisition than the Space Wolves, but their enthusiasm is very suspicious, so I always remain vigilant and have not been deceived by them.

I asked, investigated and consulted a lot of information and witnesses inside and outside the chapter. They described Bell to me. According to the administrator of the family glory hall of the Guilliman family, Bell has shown extraordinary erudition, intelligence and studious since he was a child. He can write and read High Gothic before he is five years old, and he has read all the books in the family library before he is ten years old.

After this, Bell showed a strong desire for knowledge and exploration, which is very suspicious. As we all know, only Tzeentch followers will show such enthusiasm! He is very suspicious.

Bell's father is also a local noble. Due to family reasons, his father inherited the seat of the Macragge Council and was directly responsible to and reported to Captain Calgar. It is said that the two have a good personal relationship. Captain Calgar knew and noticed Bell when he was a child.

Specifically, people who are familiar with Bell affectionately call him "Little Guilliman" because he is very similar to the Primarch. His personality is almost exactly the same as the Primarch in his childhood. He is studious, enthusiastic and extremely cheerful. His family teachers and local scholars have praised him constantly and called him a child prodigy. I began to wonder who these local "polymaths" are, loyal to the Emperor, or loyal to dangerous knowledge.

Bell later joined the Ultramarines. It is said that after visiting the temple where Guilliman was sleeping, he developed a "curiosity and desire" for the endless galaxy, so he spontaneously decided to join the chapter and explore the "endless knowledge" in the galaxy. This move is very suspicious.

Praise the Emperor, the Ultramarines' archives are very complete, so we can clearly know that Bell joined the time in M41K.780.

Like all the new recruits of the chapter, he received initial training and was sent to the death planet on the edge of the Macragge galaxy for trial. The recruits were required to survive there for a week and then walk to the designated location. Those who could reach there alive would be eligible to join the chapter.

This is a dangerous trial. The planet is full of monsters and dangerous terrain. Most of the trialists will die in the process, but Bell did not. Not only did he not, but according to the active members of the Ultramarines, Bell used some "junk copper and iron" to create guns, swords and armor that could fire, which helped them survive the trial.

I have my doubts about how he did it. Although the "official statement" of the Chapter is that Bell is knowledgeable and knows how to use tools and materials, I still doubt it. Bell used his eloquence to convince some recruits. They united together and used the tools made by Bell to survive the trial, but the interesting thing is that Bell never led them. In fact, Bell was led by the current captain of the Second Company of the Ultramarines, the annoying megalomaniac Cato Sicarius, who was also a recruit at the time.

Bell voluntarily lived under others, only assisting the leader as a consultant and technical staff. This was respected and recognized by everyone. Even "The Great Sicarius" recognized this. The Ultramarines said that Bell was at that time They also showed strong medical knowledge, helping them survive wound infections, diseases and physical discomfort many times.

Baer later served in the 2nd Company of the Ultramarines, which was a great honor. The "questionably enthusiastic" warriors in the Chapter told me that Calgar and the Chapter Captains once wanted to train Baer to become the Captain of the 2nd Company. The candidate, Severus Ageman, the then commander of the Second Company, also expressed his support and recognition.

The senior leaders of the chapter believe that Sicarius, as a candidate for the second company, is arrogant, arrogant and extremely conceited and values ​​his honor, even at the risk of putting the lives of his brothers in danger, and does not obey orders at all. It is an act without authorization. Although the results of its actions can always bring unexpected gains, the behavior itself cannot be tolerated.

Bell, who also came from the Macragge aristocracy, and whose aristocracy is more noble than the Sicarius family, is more humble. According to the memories of veterans of the war, Bell is very studious, humble and has no airs of nobility at all. Like an apprentice who is studying, he is enthusiastic and active in learning everything.

The soldiers of the 2nd Company told me that Bell did not care about honor, status or pride, but only valued his responsibilities to the empire, the battle group and his brothers. He did not like to fight for power and had no desire for power. This was the difference between him and his ancestors. The biggest difference between Guilliman and No matter how much Sicarius showed off or even humiliated him in order to compete for the qualification of captain, Baer always maintained restraint and tried hard to maintain friendship with Sicarius.

However, since a noble, a noble descendant, a learned and talented noble child who has been specially trained by the war group, has no desire for power, either he hides it too well, or it means that he is a heretic!

The senior leaders of the battle group consciously cultivated Bell, and Bell quickly demonstrated his all-round talents as an ultramarine. Not only did he understand the holy scriptures very quickly, but he also showed amazing talent in using firearms. According to his service, The data during the period and the records after following Vito Constantine show that his marksmanship can almost serve as a sniper.

But Bell's greatest talent is his innate knowledge of machinery and technological creations. He showed his affinity for machinery very early. Later, the leader of the chapter and the chief technical sergeant of the chapter decided to carry forward his talent and bring Bell to the outside world. He was sent to a Mechanicum forge world to study. According to the evaluation of local sages, Bell was indeed gifted in this area and his learning speed improved by leaps and bounds.

But Bell did not eventually become a follower of the Mechanicus. Instead, he paid more attention to how to use the knowledge of the Mechanicum to heal the body rather than carry out mechanical transformation. Therefore, he focused on biology during his studies. According to one theory, Bell experienced a lot of battles. Later, he felt sad and angry at the casualties of his combat brothers and civilians, so he became more willing to embark on the path of a healer.

The Adeptus Mechanicus felt very sorry for this, and told me that Bell would have made a good follower of the Messiah of Ohm, but that he respected the "noble" choice of this young, intelligent warrior, and that it was all very suspicious.

Bell later returned to the Chapter, serving as a technical sergeant and part-time as an informal pharmacist. Although he was never as dazzling as Sicarius, Bell always did the most perfect equipment maintenance for the brothers in the Chapter. He does repair and manufacturing work, but also rushes into battlefields filled with bullets to rescue the wounded. His behavior with complete disregard for his own safety has won everyone's respect.

But this also led to Bell being always overshadowed by Sicarius. He would not compete for honors, but instead allowed Sicarius's reputation to surpass his own. But it seemed that he didn't mind. He always made it clear that he I don't want to compete with my brothers for power.

In the later decisive battle of the Ultramarines, when the Tyranid swarm invaded Macragge, Bell always stayed in the Arctic fortress to rescue the wounded and protect the people of Macragge, and even installed a heavy-duty air defense system in the Arctic. After being paralyzed, he repaired and restarted the air defense system on his own without the help of the Mechanicus Priest. This was the reason why Sai and Macragge did not fall.

But it also caused him to miss the most critical fighting opportunity. After the second company commander Severus Argyman disappeared in the battle, Bell missed the opportunity to serve as the temporary company commander, but Sicarius took it away. This honor was gained greatly in the battle with Tyron, which provided him with enough capital to compete for the position of company commander.

But it is certain that Vito Constantine also met Bell here. He served as the commander-in-chief of the Ultramarines Arctic Fortress at that time. Since a mortal can make the Ultramarines voluntarily obey his orders? We must seriously investigate the truth of this matter.

After the Battle of Macragge, although he was seriously injured and was cured by Bell, Captain Severus Argyman decided to choose a successor to become the new company commander. At this time, Sicarius and Bell The conflict on this issue reached its peak, but this conflict did not ignite a civil war in the company because Bell took the initiative to give up.

It is said that Bell voluntarily gave up his position as company commander. He did not want to have a grudge with his brother. In order to allow Sicarius to better perform his duties, Bell was dissatisfied and suspicious. Bell took the initiative to apply for external transfer to the commander of the Calgar Chapter and left the war. The regiment went into service with the Death Watch Chapter.

It is said that Vito was also present at the time, and after the three had a suspicious discussion, Calgar agreed to the request, and Bell immediately joined Vito's service, so that he could continue to explore knowledge and the future. He expressed his blessing to Sicarius, which made Sicarius moved, ashamed and embarrassed.

At this point, Bell has officially joined Vito's staff. Overall, he is very suspicious! His thirst for knowledge is very suspicious, especially when he is around Vito Constantine, a man who is full of doubts and, in the name of the Emperor, I swear, is extremely suspicious. We must remain vigilant!

In the name of the Emperor, I will continue to investigate the truth about Vito Constantine and the people around him. If he is a heretic, I will truthfully report the results of the investigation. Your Excellencies, please be aware.

In the service of the Emperor and the Empire, this report is concluded.
