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

As your Excellency knows, I followed the footsteps of Judge Vito Constantine to the Rock of Caliban. The purpose was to investigate another entourage around Vito Constantine, who was the same as his suspicious commander. The mysterious, suspicious and highly vigilant Lancelot Jean Colony.

Lancelot Jean Colony belongs to the Dark Angels Chapter. The official name of the Chapter is Knights of Caliban. However, Lancelot is not the only one with this title. In fact, according to the investigation, Lancelot himself He is from a noble family. According to the investigation by my subordinates, Lancelot has the blood of the Cologne nobles.

In fact, Lancelot's bloodline is quite noble, and his father is the governor of the planet Colony. Please allow me to introduce to you the specific situation of Colony in advance, so that you can conveniently understand the life experience of this suspicious knight.

The planet Colony is a feudal planet, or a knight planet. According to the ancient empire's sacred administrative laws formulated by His Holy Majesty himself, the knight planet is usually led by a knight family, and the entire planet is governed by an empire. The appointed and canonized planetary governor, or "Knight Lord" as the local name is called, manages the planet, and the Knight Lord will canonize more knight families to rule by enfeoffment.

All knight families must be loyal to the knight lord's family, and Lancelot's family is the knight lord of Cologne. The planet itself is named after their family's surname.

According to ancient, untrustworthy, and completely unverifiable heretical rumors, the locals foolishly claimed that the Colonian family was canonized by Llane Al'Jonson, the holy heir of the Emperor and the Primarch of the Dark Angels. According to Legend has it that the ancestors of the Cologny family came from the planet Caliban and were once one of the knights of the old knights under Lord Ryan. However, because the Cologni knights were old at the time, Ryan did not take the risk of genetically modifying them. Instead, he was canonized as the governor of a planet.

This rumor is extremely heretical! And it has not been verified in any official imperial records. It must be a rumor from ancient times. We must put an end to this rumor and remember that only what the Holy Emperor says is the only truth.

I conducted an in-depth investigation in the local area. In fact, the process went very smoothly. The local ignorant but pious imperial people were very obedient to my request. This was very satisfying. I visited many families and villages and learned about Lance. An obscure record of Lot's life.

According to rumors, Lancelot was not the legitimate son of the Lord Knight of Cologne. According to local customs, Lancelot was a sinful illegitimate son, a shameful existence that undermined the family's honor and status.

Of course, the Colonni family firmly denied this statement. It is said that the Colonian lords hanged and executed many gossiping farmers for this, but the relevant folklore has been circulated in private, and finally reached my ears.

In order not to waste your Lordships' time, I will briefly describe this "marital accident".

According to rumors, the young Cologne knight was unfortunately lost on a hunting trip. After his mount was killed, he fought alone with the local ferocious Megalodon. Although he killed the beast, he was still burdened with the responsibility. Seriously injured, he was rescued by a kind and extremely beautiful peasant girl when he was confused.

The girl took care of the Knight of Cologne for a whole winter, and they fell in love as they got along. The two young people made a private lifelong commitment like that cliché and classic story, but just like in the story, Cologne The knight was then arranged by the family to marry another noble girl.

The locals firmly believe that this person is a witch. After learning about it, I found out that this means heresy in the local area. Considering that she was able to revive the Cologne knight in the forest with few resources and no medical treatment, This must mean some secret, the secret of heresy!

But it is said that the Knight of Cologne still really loved the peasant girl, and often had trysts with her, and finally gave birth to Lancelot. However, this rumor was later learned by the head wife of the Knight of Cologne, who persecuted her through a series of means. Lancelot, mother and son, eventually led to his mother's death in poverty and illness.

In the end, out of guilt and sorrow, the Knight of Cologne took the young Lancelot into his account and planned to provide him with a way of life. However, due to family honor issues, he could not officially recognize his son, resulting in Lancelot being an illegitimate son. He was bullied by Coloni's legitimate heirs and his wife, and it is said that he lived like a serf.

However, my lords, my dear lords, according to the records of the local priest, Lancelot is very cheerful, helpful, pious, kind and brave. The priest believes that Lancelot is the perfect person who best meets the standards of chivalry. Knights are far better than those playboys.

And he has won many victories in "impossible" dangerous situations. People at the time said that he had killed several armored rebel knights with his bare hands and without any weapons, and rescued the Cologne knights from the battlefield, and no one knew about it. How he did it.

According to my many years of experience, he was poor as a child, suffered bullying and oppression, but showed full piety and incredible strength. He must have secretly believed in the Evil God of Chaos! Gained shameful power from those unspeakably abominable beings! It must be so!

In any case, although Lancelot performed "excellently" in his hometown, he was never reused because of his illegitimate son. Moreover, because of his outstanding performance and many voices of praise, he suffered even more jealousy and targeting from the knights in his hometown.

But everything changed later. It is believed that in a later year, an expedition company of the Dark Angels conducted a campaign on a nearby planet. I was unable to investigate any information about that expedition at all. The information has been deliberately erased, which is very suspicious.

The company of the Dark Angels later passed through Cologne for rest and recuperation. The chaplain of the company who accompanied the company accidentally discovered Lancelot. It is said that he reported a local dandy without any scruples at that time and raped an ordinary local girl. , and as a result, Lancelot was retaliated by the noble children and their associates, who relied on the influence of the family to prepare to execute Lancelot for slander.

The priest intervened in the case. The Dark Angel priest directly ordered the Dark Angel knights to execute several dandy boys, and also executed all the judges, nobles and officials involved in the case without any reporting! This behavior is extremely heretical.

The priest took a fancy to Lancelot's quality and asked Lancelot if he was willing to join the battle group. It is said that this is also the way the Dark Angels select recruits as a ship-based battle group, but I did not declare this kind of thing and there is no standard screening mechanism. And we are skeptical about the very questionable selection method of the candidates!

Lancelot readily accepted the priest's suggestion and decided to leave with the company "with great honor". It is said that he finally said goodbye to his biological father, but in the end the father and son did not officially recognize each other, so Lancelot's surname was actually illegal. It is also untrue. He himself does not have a surname, but the priest of the Dark Angel gave him this surname for unknown reasons, illegally, and irrationally.

Then Lancelot went to the Rock of Caliban, and there was no record of what happened after that. The Dark Angels Chapter sealed all information about their Chapter Knights, and arrogantly rejected an Inquisitor's request. Query request! How blasphemous! How dare they refuse the request of a divine judge chosen by the Emperor!

Therefore, I was completely unable to find any information about Lancelot during his time in the Chapter. In fact, the Dark Angels completely refused to let me climb the Rock. They arrogantly and stubbornly refused all requests, even their Chapter Chaplain Asmer. Dare you threaten me! Threatening a divine inquisitor!

The entire Dark Angels are shrouded in a layer of fog. They seem to be deliberately concealing a lot of things. All my investigations have hit a wall, and I haven't found even a single clue or information. From this, I dare to say! They must be hiding some secret! I ask your Lordships to open a case and investigate. We must thoroughly investigate this entire war group.

As a result, all my investigations into Lancelot were interrupted. I could not judge the reason why he joined Vito's army like the other people, nor could I understand everything after he became a Space Marine. This made me even more suspicious that he must be a heretic. , traitor, someone who colludes with Chaos!

The only thing we can be sure of now is that Lancelot joined the Death Watch and was directly selected by Vito to join his army after a period of time. The reason and purpose may only be known to our Judge Vito Constantine. .

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.
