Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

Loken held his head and sat on the bottom base of the throne. His thinking was stagnant and slow, as if he was sinking into an endless swamp. The more he tried to figure out how he arrived, It will sink deeper here.

Vito asked Bell to help Lorken sit up. He then rubbed his head and looked at Vito who was confused and confused about everything.

"Where are we, Marshal?" Loken asked, and Vito looked at him and laughed heartily. He pressed Loken's broad shoulder armor and nodded slightly.

Trazin stood aside with his hunched silver body. His strange body structure immediately caught Loken's attention. He looked at the alien alien in front of him in surprise, which he had never seen before.

"Who is this alien?"

"A friend, Captain Loken, a mutual friend," Trazin said, looking at him, her twinkling eyes dancing with each letter.

"You may feel symptoms such as frozen thinking and slow reaction time, but these are all normal reactions after waking up from a static position. I assure you that these discomforts will disappear soon."

Trazin spoke very patiently, friendly and caring, but Loken still looked at him hesitantly and full of doubt and confusion. The education he received all emphasized that aliens were untrustworthy and dangerous.

But fortunately, during the Great Crusade, the concept of the human empire was not as rigid as it is today. Loken had already learned something during his battle in the galaxy. Not all aliens are hostile enemies who must be fought. Many of them can communicate and cooperate normally.

He especially remembered the good cooperative relationship between the Intress people and the alien race, although that beautiful country was eventually destroyed by the artillery fire of the Legion.

Loken nodded slightly to Trazin to indicate that he understood. The latter laughed happily, holding the staff and looking down at Loken. This was not because Trazin did it intentionally, but because he squatted down and then looked down at Loken. It's inconvenient to stand up, and the Necron's joint structure has always been very tasteless.

"Company Commander, what is the last thing you remember?" Trazin asked. After hearing this, Loken frowned slightly and tried hard to recall the vague memories.

"I remember that on Istvan, Togaton and I went to find Asimander and Abaddon to settle accounts and have a final battle to the death."

"Garadon died under Acemander's sword, and I escaped after fighting with Abaddon for a long time. I remember I gave him a lift on his chin. In my last memory, I was lying on the floor of the Song City. I looked at the rain of fire falling above my head on the ruins, and then it became dark and I couldn’t remember anything.”

Loken tried hard to recall those memory fragments. Fuzzy battle scenes and faces with only outlines filled his mind, like looking through a yellowed photo album, but he still tried hard to piece together that memory.

Vito nodded. Loken's memory was not wrong. It was the last battle on Isstvan. After the loyalists held on for three full months and inflicted heavy losses on the traitors, the angry Horus took An Gronn forcibly caught the ship and ordered the orbital bombardment again to end the battle, which also brought the final tragic curtain to all the brave warriors.

"Where's Thor? Marshal, is Thor Tarvitz still alive? Is he here too?" Loken asked eagerly, thinking of that handsome face, the face of one of his best friends.

But unfortunately Vito just shook his head. He looked at Loken sadly, "I'm sorry Gavir, Tavitz didn't survive."

"They were all sacrificed in the final bombing." Vito said, Loken lowered his head and turned from shock to sadness. He closed his eyes and his sadness was indescribable.

"All my brothers are dead, why did I survive? I should have died there with them." Loken said sadly, Vito pressed his shoulders and lowered his head in mourning, even standing Bell on the side was also touched by this scene, and his sacrificed brothers also appeared in front of his eyes and he was filled with sadness.

"I teleported you here during the orbital bombardment, Captain Loken, so you were able to escape that death and regain your life now."

"Reborn as the last Luna Wolf." Trazin said calmly, there was no sadness in his words, although Vito doubted whether the undead could still perceive such complex emotional changes, even if It would be difficult for Trazin to understand their current emotions.

"So you hid Loken here for ten thousand years! You have been hiding it from me for ten thousand years?!" Vito shouted angrily, golden lightning flashing in his eyes.

Trazin raised a hand to signal him to calm down, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, my old friend. After I brought Captain Loken here, I found that he was seriously injured. Without treatment, he would not survive." You can’t come to him.”

"Abaddon left many scars on his body, and I know Captain Loken will not believe me. You know that no matter what an alien says, the proud Astartes will not believe a word, but will pick up explosive bombs." Give me a shot."

As he spoke, Trazin made a pistol gesture with his fingers and pressed it against his head, "So I put Captain Loken into a static position, put him into a deep sleep, and then treated him. This process took a lot of time.”

"After that, our old friend Adarad found me, and our meeting was also very unexpected. I was on a treasure hunt at the time, and he suddenly appeared and found me."

"Eldarad told me that I needed to hide Captain Loken as a secret until the fateful moment came when he would be awakened, and you would be there at that time, because of the major changes affecting the fate of the galaxy and all races. came here."

Vito cursed angrily, and he watched Trazin stand up, "Did you just believe his lies?! He kept it from me for ten thousand years until now?!"

"Calm down old friend, you know that even though Eldarad is always riddled and annoying, his prophecies are never wrong and are often of great consequence."

Trazin raised one hand and spoke calmly, trying hard to signal Vito to hold on to his strength and not blow up his museum to the sky.

"The prophecy says that you will come here at the fate of the galaxy, looking for me to answer a key secret, and Gavir Loken, the last Lunar Wolf, will also awaken at this moment, and the two ancient warriors will meet again. Appearing in the world, he will also connect with your destiny and bring the Last Lord back to the empire. The gears of destiny will thus break the ten thousand-year deadlock."

"What a bullshit riddle." Vito simply summarized and answered, while Trazin shrugged helplessly, "You know this is Adarad's style, the content is all based on guessing, and I have been guessing for so long. Now I understand what he was talking about.”

"Abaddon has occupied Cadia, the Black Crusade has finally made a breakthrough, and the Empire of Man has reached a critical stage of survival. The young Warmaster will end the eternal war this time. This is the predicted destiny of the galaxy. "

"And you did come to me with the artifact and answered the important clues and secrets for restarting the lighthouse. This is the key secret you will bring."

Trazin explained his understanding of this outrageous riddle. This is why Vito is annoying the Eldar. Whatever they say to you, you have to guess the riddle by yourself. The answer and understanding you get are different depending on the result you guess. It's different, especially this prediction about the fate of the galaxy, which is the ultimate riddle.

Trazin looked at Loken who was sitting on the ground. The latter looked at them in confusion and had no idea what they were talking about. Of course, he was not the only one who was confused. Bell also had no idea what these two old monsters were saying. What.

Vito frowned and crossed his arms, the golden lightning in his eyes gradually disappeared, "So you think the prophesied moment has come? So now you decide to tell me that Loken is here, and finally release him after being locked up for ten thousand years. ?”

Trazin raised his head slightly and shook his head, "I don't think it's appropriate to call him "Guan". I have never regarded Captain Loken as an exhibit. I just took care of him until the moment of destiny comes. Look, I even Cleaned his armor, you don't know how dirty it was when he came."

"Get to the point, Trazin," Vito said, emphasizing each word.

"Okay, okay, yes, I believe that the moment of destiny has arrived, and everything now conforms to all the contents of the prophecy, at least I believe so, so I also decided to let you take Loken away and let the prophecy continue to run."

Trazin held the staff and looked at his old friend. Although Vito was much shorter than him, he felt as if he was facing a primarch at eight feet tall.

"Disobeying Eldarad's prophecy will not be good for you, me, Captain Loken, or even the entire galaxy. I hope you can understand my behavior, old friend."

Vito looked at Trazin and let out a long sigh. He looked at the confused Loken and pondered for a moment, "What about the last part of the prophecy? The part that brings the Last Lord back to the Empire."

"I believe that the final lord is you, my old friend." "I know you are talking nonsense. I will ask you again what this prophecy means."

Trazin raised his head slightly and his eyes dimmed a little, then quickly regained their brightness, "I believe this prophecy means that you, Supreme Marshal Vito Constantine, will return to the empire and take charge of the overall situation to turn the tide. "

Vito frowned as he looked at Trazin, who shrugged helplessly, "Please forgive me, old friend, I don't know how this will happen, but I believe it won't take long, you You have to go down this path, you have no choice.”

Vito walked to the side with his arms crossed. He turned his back to the three of them and looked at the museum exhibition area in the distance. But I believe that Vito was not admiring the exhibits. After a long silence, Vito turned around and looked at Loken. .

"Anyway, welcome back Gavir. There are many things in the empire today that I want to tell you, but let's leave here first." After Vito said this, Loken nodded. He had regained his strength and stood up again.

Vito looked at the last wolf that stood upright again in front of him and showed a sincere smile. He nodded slightly and looked at Trazin, "Iron Bastard, I have to have a reasonable reason to retreat with the artifact. I need to think about it." A plan?"

Trazin laughed jokingly, the laughter was full of joy, "No, no, I have a plan."

"Do you have any experience in acting?"
