Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

The mysterious giant wearing a hood walked slowly towards him. Most of his face was completely shrouded in the shadow of the hood. His large robe was hung on his old power armor. Eisenstein looked at him warily. He had an instinct warning him about the Astartes warrior in front of him. This guy was very dangerous.

Eisenstein held down the chain sword. He took a step forward from Vito's side. He raised his hand to signal Seve to stop, "Don't come any closer. You haven't gained our trust yet."

Seve glanced at the chain sword on the captain's waist. His hand was holding the end of the hilt, as if he was about to pull it out and strike himself at any time. Bell behind Eisenstein was also holding a bolter. He looked at Seve warily, and his eyes glanced over Seve, spying on the silent Space Marines of the Mysterious Sword.

Seve stopped. He stood a few steps away and glanced at Eisenstein, and then looked at Vito among them. Although he was far smaller than them among the Space Marines, he was not the same. Undoubtedly at the center of it all.

"Long time no see, Vito, nice to see you again." The hooded knight wearing the broad-bladed knight sword nodded and said. Vito looked at him and squeezed out a little smile despite being surprised. He smiled and said to Seve nodded, then raised his hand to signal Captain Eisenstein to put down the sword he had pressed on his weapon.

"He is our friend, Sever, an old acquaintance of mine."

Eisenstein looked at Vito in silence for a moment, then he looked at Seve's face. His eyes as hard and cold as steel walls looked at Seve's eyes, and the gray-white eyes under the hood also looked at Seve's. Eisenstein, the two looked at each other without saying a word for more than ten seconds before Eisenstein released his weapon.

The Captain of the Imperial Fist straddled the chainsword and retreated behind Vito. He strode directly behind Vito and stood there like a high wall, silently exuding a sense of majesty. Deterring anyone with unrealistic ideas.

As Eisenstein lowered his guard, at least for the time being, Bell also loosened his grip on the trigger. He looked at Seve, and soon noticed the silver wings logo on his shoulder armor. Although the sign was partially covered by the monk's robe, it still shone coldly under the light.

"You are the Dark Angel, right?" Bell asked. Vito glanced at Bell with his peripheral vision. He hesitated and then looked at Seve, who nodded slightly to Bell, like all Dark Angel warriors. , silent and cold.

"Yes, I am the son of Ryan, the knight of the Dark Angel and Caliban, the real knight of Caliban." Seve said, his voice was low and hoarse, which made Bell feel very strange. He was keenly aware of it. There was something wrong with this battle brother.

He does not look old in appearance, and his face hidden by the hood can even be called young, but that is just the appearance. His words all reveal a strong sense of age, as if he has experienced a hundred years. The lonely old man told stories one after another in his hoarse voice.

And not only that, his power armor didn't look like the standard model today. Bell frowned as he looked at the thing, and then he keenly realized that his power armor model was the same as Captain Loken's. Although it was The robes covered many key parts, but Bell could still confirm this.

Bell noticed something was wrong, but he didn't say it outright at the beginning. He was not as impatient as Ragnar or Lancelot. He turned to look at Vito, and when he saw the latter shaking his head slightly, he nodded tacitly. He signaled and hid the secret he discovered.

"Captain Loken, I'm glad to see the Luna Wolves again." Seve greeted Loken affectionately. The latter was slightly surprised. He looked at Seve in front of him and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"You know me? You said your name is Seve? I seem to have heard of this name before."

"We met in subspace, and it was also in a storm, so I think the pleasantries will end here." Vito interrupted Loken's thoughts. He looked towards Loken, and the company commander also looked at Vito thinking. After a moment, he nodded, then raised his head and looked at Seve in front of him.

Vito took a deep breath, then exhaled it slowly and turned to look at Seve, who was wearing a gray-white robe. "You have never come to me in the past many years. How did you find me this time?"

"She helped me, she told me your location." Seve said calmly, Vito frowned slightly, and Loken behind him looked at Bell in surprise.

"She? Who?" "I don't know, probably one of the marshal's ex-girlfriends, or I don't need to add the prefix."

Vito glanced at the two people behind him and smiled helplessly. He now knew why Slaanesh said that an old friend of his came to find him. She was right. Seve was indeed his old friend, very... A very old friend.

They have experienced a lot of things together, good, bad and not bad, so Vito knows that if Seve comes to him, it is definitely not just to reminisce about the past. Every time he comes to see him, there is definitely something wrong. What a big thing, and not an ordinary big thing.

"Something big happened, right? That's why you came to me."

Vito stood in front of the three Space Marines and said, and Seve nodded without hesitation. Although Vito and he last met a few centuries ago, he still answered questions as he remembered. There will be no sloppiness, completely consistent with his father Ryan.

"Guilliman and his expeditionary force were discovered by Chaos while making several short-distance warp jumps. Tzeentch designed a warp storm to break up the expeditionary fleet, scattering them into the Maelstrom. "

"Maelstrom? The star field controlled by the tyrant Huron during the Badab War?" Bell relied on his erudition to immediately identify where the place Seve mentioned was, and his judgment was very accurate.

"Yes, that's where it is, and Huron is also there. He led himself to attack with the help of various renegade Space Marine warbands and even the Red Pirates warband mixed with the renegade legion. With the guidance of the Lord of Change, He found the lone Guilliman flagship and tied the Primarch and others to his Blackstone Fortress."

Bell was startled. He watched Seve take a few steps forward in shock, "Lord Guilliman has been kidnapped?!"

"And not only him, Cato Sicarius, Marshal Amalric, and others are also trapped up there." Seve said and looked at Vito, who frowned slightly. To Vito, he said the words that made Vito pay attention instantly.

"Celestine is also up there. Huron originally planned to kill her, but then he planned to torture her himself, letting the emperor's living saint be swallowed and corrupted by Chaos in pain, and degenerate into an angel of Chaos as a gift to the four gods. As a gift, if I guess correctly, he probably has"

Before Seve could say anything, a bolt of lightning shot out of Vito's body. The golden thunder rushed past Seve's ears and shattered a relief sculpture high up. The stone statue was instantly broken into pieces. Rubble poured down to the ground.

Colonel York, who was behind Vito, was startled by the lightning and the collapsing stone statue. He instinctively squatted down. He looked at the dust that was raised not far away as the stone statue fell. His eyes glanced at Vito. Tor, even he knew that Vito was not in a good mood right now.

Eisenstein frowned slightly. He looked at the golden lightning leaping from Vito's body, and then looked at Seve's frown. He deliberately angered Vito first.

Seve looked at Vito, who looked silently at Vito whose eyes briefly flashed with golden light, "Guilliman is also up there. Huron handed the original body to Carlos Fateweaver, and it also evolved from Huron's idea. It got inspiration from it and wanted to take credit from Huron, so it planned to let Guilliman fall into the Primarch of Chaos since Huron wanted to corrupt Celestine.”

"It's trying to torture the Primarch. I heard he got a lot of advice from Fulgrim. If no one comes to save them, then"

"Vito! We must go to the Maelstrom immediately! We must rescue Lord Guilliman and the others!" Bell shouted looking at Vito, who also looked at Bell with eyes full of anger, but Vito had not yet After speaking, Eisenstein walked up and pressed Bell's shoulders.

"But don't forget, the Emperor and Terra are also in urgent need of our support. If the Emperor falls, everything will be over." Eisenstein said. Bell originally wanted to refute something, but the words choked in his throat. , he cursed in a low voice while hesitating to speak.

Eisenstein was right. Now the Emperor also needed their support. They had no time to care about Guilliman and Celestine, but should they just give up like that? ?

Bell raised his head and wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Loken before he could speak. Bell was startled and subconsciously looked at Loken, who shook his head and frowned and looked ahead. Bell obeyed in surprise. Looking at Loken's eyes, he was startled.

He looked at Vito's cold expression. Although he was expressionless, large lightning bolts had already leapt out of his body. Those golden lightning bolts bounced on him, and his cold eyes were full of murderous intent.

He stared at Sever and spoke after a moment, "How do you need me to help you?"

Seve looked at Vito and nodded. As he expected, he did not need to give Vito any explanation, "I will lead the battle brothers behind me to raid Huron's Blackstone Fortress and rescue Guilliman and Celestine, and everyone else, but I can't break through the Red Pirates' defenses with just these warriors, I need help."

Cypher frowned as he spoke, his mouth speaking under the shadow of his hood, "I need it, the Legion of the Damned."

"The Cursed Legion? Aren't those heroic souls that only living saints and emperors can summon?" Bell asked in surprise. Seve shook his head slightly and pointed at Vito in front of him.

"No, only three people have the authority to summon the Cursed Legion, the Emperor himself, his herald and messenger Celestine, and him."

Seve pointed at Vito in front of him and said, the latter looked directly into Seve's eyes with cold eyes, and the latter also looked at Vito in front of him without fear, "Vito Constantine, Emperor ’s sharp blade, his marshal.”

Bell was startled. He, Loken, and Eisenstein looked at Vito at the same time. He looked at Vito with a cold face, surprised and puzzled, "If he can also summon the Cursed Legion, why has he never summoned it before? He never called us when we were on Macragge, or in other times of danger."

"Because he is a nuclear bomb, a psychic nuclear bomb. Although it is powerful, it lacks control. Summoning the Cursed Legion requires quite strong psychic control. He is not sure that he can summon them stably, and It’s not going to blow up the entire continent.”

When Seve was talking, Vito had already walked to the open space on one side. He stopped silently as he passed by Colonel York. He turned his head slightly and looked at the colonel.

"Did you bring wine?"

"Bring it."

"take it out."

Colonel York hesitantly took off the kettle from his belt, but it was obviously filled with wine. Don't be so surprised. Colonel York used to drink a bottle of wine before facing various monsters and enemies, which would make him calmer. In the face of those enemies, the so-called drinking to strengthen your courage.

Colonel York handed the flask to Vito, who took the flask, opened the cork and drank a gulp. His throat continued to bulge, and with the operation of his Adam's apple, a large amount of wine was poured from his throat. While drinking, he raised the wine bottle, and the wine fell from the air and poured into his mouth.

The surrounding soldiers looked at each other. They all watched Vito drink the wine, and many wine stains spilled on his collar. Seve and the three Space Marines behind him watched Vito finish the wine. The empty jug was stuffed back into York, who took the jug and looked at Vito walking by in surprise.

He walked to the open ground on the side of the deck under everyone's gaze. Vito looked at the ground under his feet and gently raised one of his arms. He looked at the arm, and the hand of the mechanical arm came up from the top. Pulling out the Phoenix Sword, he looked at the cold blade and attached it to his arm.

Bell looked at Vito and frowned, "You said he can't control that power, right? He can't summon the Cursed Legion."

"Yes." Seve replied coldly, his eyes always locked on Vito.

"Then why do you think that he will be able to summon it successfully this time instead of using his power to blow us up in time and space?"

"Because he was drinking, and besides, he was furious."

The corners of Seve's mouth raised slightly, and he spoke softly. As Seve's words fell, Vito's blood also dripped on the ground. He used the Phoenix Sword to cut a wound on his wrist, and the scarlet blood Drops fell to the ground, dripping to the cold deck.

Drops of blood fell on the blood pool on the ground, and red ripples rippled on the ground. But suddenly lightning lit up in the blood, and streaks of golden lightning rose from the blood. The blood was bombarded by lightning. The bottom instantly turned into countless threads, and those lines of blood surged on the ground.

Bell looked at the blood lines on the ground. The blood lines spread to all directions, each drawing a huge outline on the steel deck. As the blood threads all closed at the end, a huge blood magic circle appeared instantly. On the deck.

After the huge magic circle under Vito's body was drawn, his arm dripping with blood suddenly stopped bleeding. The rolling blood suddenly stopped at the wound. Vito's hand holding the Phoenix Sword slammed the sword. The blade was inserted into the ground in front of him. As the blade was inserted into the ground, the Shining Eyes blade instantly lit up. The blade burning like the sun lit up from the end of the hilt and extended downward to the tip of the sword.

As the Phoenix Sword lit up instantly, the blood array around it after it was inserted into the ground also lit up. The red blood turned into gold in a very short period of time. The golden light moved quickly along the line, and then As those complex and winding blood lines all turned golden, the ends of the golden light collided head-on at the edge of the magic circle.

In an instant, a force surged from the formation like a storm. The hurricane knocked all the surrounding Marines to the ground. They shouted and were knocked down from the gun mantlet. Colonel York was startled and strode forward. , trying to stand firm in the strong wind, but as the wind arrived, he was almost immediately blown away.

Colonel York fell back repeatedly. If Loken hadn't stood behind the colonel and used his body as a wall to support the colonel, he would have fallen to the ground long ago. Loken looked at Vito in front of him, and the colonel also leaned against him. Lorcan's power armor legs looked at Vito, and they all looked in Vito's direction.

The strong wind blew under Vito. His black jacket was flapping violently in the wind, and his black hair was flying everywhere with the strong wind. Vito looked at the magic circle under him in front of him, and he grasped it. He grabbed the Phoenix Sword inserted in front of him, and as he held the blade, he instantly injected more powerful power into the magic circle.

The strong wind began to be mixed with lightning and bombarded everywhere. The golden lightning roared over the gun mantlet and flew almost close to the heads of the marines. The lightning bombarded the wall, and a hole was blown out of the steel wall in an instant. A big black hole.

The Marine who fell on the ground raised his head. He looked in the direction where his legs were facing. He watched the tens of thousands of lightning emerging from the magic circle. The golden lightning continued to collide with each other around Vito. They were rapidly The changing figures rub and stir against each other, and with every psychic impact, the strong wind will bombard the surrounding areas.

A bolt of lightning hit the Leman Russ main battle tank after a collision above Vito's head. The commander was startled and crouched down on the hatch. The golden lightning shot past his head and hit the door. There was a refraction from behind, and the lightning struck directly at the ears of the Secret Sword Space Marines, but these silent warriors stood completely motionless.

Seve and Bell stood together and looked at the golden array. Vito stood in the center of countless lightning and surging power. As his power was released, leaping lightning continued to bombard everywhere around him, including the ceiling. Walls and iron pillars were shattered and cracked under its bombardment, and some even collapsed.

"He can't control that power!" Bell shouted at the top of his lungs, but Seve on the other side smiled, "No! He can! Just watch!"

Before Seve finished speaking, a bolt of lightning struck his ear, and his hood swayed with the shock wave of the lightning. He watched Vito hold the hilt of the sword downwards with one hand, and his eyes were filled with laughter. In an instant, a golden light that shone far brighter than the sun burst out. As the golden light lit up, he turned the sword sharply, and the sword tore a huge crack on the ground, and there was more than one crack.

The space behind Vito was also torn apart by the leap of lightning. The crack that appeared in the lightning fell to the ground. The whistling lightning continued to emerge inside and outside it, and stepped out of the golden-white crack. An iron foot, an iron foot burning with blazing flames, stepped out.

Colonel York's eyes widened. He and the surrounding soldiers stared dumbly at the burning Space Marines. Eisenstein frowned as he looked at the warrior who stepped out of the gap. He softly spoke out the warrior's name. name.

"The Cursed Legion."

The warrior of the Cursed Legion, burning with the fire of revenge, stepped into reality. He walked behind Vito, and another burning revenge warrior walked out behind him. They walked out of the surrounding cracks one by one, heavy Power armor stepped onto the deck with burning steps.

The warriors of the Cursed Legion walked past Vito one by one. They walked past him silently, burning. The warriors burning with blazing flames were carrying bolters and chainswords, and the fire of revenge came from them. Flames spurted out from the gaps in his armor, and the roaring chain saw turned with bursts of flames.

The speechless warriors lined up around Vito. They stood on the entire wide deck. The surrounding Marines looked at the silent Burning Warriors in shock. No one dared to say a word, or even dare to speak. Just gasping for air.

One by one, the Cursed Legion soldiers with black armor and burning fire stepped into the army. After entering the queue, they turned and stood up. Soon, burning iron walls stood up around Vito.

Behind Vito, a burly centurion of the Cursed Legion wearing Terminator armor finally walked out. He was not wearing a helmet, his face was completely wrapped in flames, and his hair was completely made of flames. Composed, there are no eyeballs in the eyes, but an eternal burning infernal fire.

As the centurion stepped in, the teleportation rift gradually narrowed until it completely disappeared, and the destructive lightning jumping around on the deck also disappeared.

Vito's eyes returned to normal after closing once. He slowly raised his head, and the magic circle under him gradually extinguished. Vito took a long, deep breath and slowly exhaled. He felt a splitting headache, and then It was as if hundreds of thousands of extermination orders had been fired in his mind, and his chest was burning with blazing flames just like those destroyed planets.

But he still slowly raised his head. He looked at the centurion who walked up to him and looked down at him. The centurion of the Cursed Legion looked at Vito, and then knelt down on one knee. This made the surrounding landmen The team members, even Bell and Loken, were all surprised. Even Loken didn't know what the Cursed Legion was, but he also knew that the scene he saw now was absolutely incredible.

Vito looked at the centurion of the Cursed Legion who bowed his head in front of him. Because he was wearing a Terminator, he was taller than Vito even when he knelt down, so Vito could still see his face and those blazing eyes.

He took a deep breath, and then pointed to the trestle gate on the side, "Board on that ship, board the traitor's fortress, and then kill all the traitors you meet, leaving no one behind."

Just this sentence, just this sentence, but it was enough. The centurion stood up. He turned around and walked towards the gate of the trestle without saying a word. The burning power armor rose and fell towards the gate, blazing. The fire also burned on his body, and behind him, all the Cursed Legion soldiers walked towards the trestle, and the giant groups followed the centurion towards the gate.

Seve and Bell, Loken, Eisenstein, York and others stood in the middle of the deck. They looked at the Vengeful Flames walking past one by one on both sides, and the silent warriors of the Cursed Legion walked past. The flames floated around them, but they did not feel any heat. Perhaps, only traitors could feel the temperature of the fire of revenge.

The warriors of the Sword of Mystery stepped aside on both sides of the gate. They stared at the warriors of the Cursed Legion walking past. The tall centurion walked into the trestle first, followed by more than a hundred people. The soldiers of the Cursed Legion followed closely. There was no conversation, no noise, and even no breathing. The soldiers stepped into the trestle.

Eisenstein looked at the corridor inside the trestle. The steel peaks overlapped one by one and covered all the space. Along with them, there were blazing flames. The fire of war was heading towards the battlefield.

Eisenstein turned his head and looked at Vito who was coming after inserting the Phoenix Sword into its scabbard. He walked up to Seve. The two looked at each other and then Vito pointed in the direction of the trestle, the battlefield. direction.

"Go and rescue Guilliman, my girl, and everyone else." He said, pointing to the two guns on Seve's waist, and said with a cold expression.

"Do me a small favor. Last time in Badab, Huron lost half of his body. Let him lose the other side this time."

"I understand, if he touches her, I will make him pay for you."

As he spoke, Seve turned around and walked towards the trestle without saying goodbye or even a word of blessing. Hum, he was still the same as he remembered, but it was also because of this that Vito believed in him. He believed that Seve would Rescue them.

Vito looked at Seve's back, looking at the sword he was familiar with, the Lion King's Sword that had been wielded by his father.

"Sev."

Vito shouted, and Seve stopped in front of the door. He turned to look at Vito, who was not far away. The latter looked at Seve and was silent for a moment before speaking, "What on earth do you want to do? This ten thousand Over the years, have you been loyal or betrayed?"

Seve smiled. He turned around and continued to walk towards the gate of the trestle. As he walked, he said, "We are all fulfilling our mission in our own way. My eternal marshal, now go and fulfill yours."

He left, and Seve, who was carrying a sharp sword, walked into the trestle. The Secret Sword warriors on both sides of the gate also walked into the trestle with him. Vito watched their retreating figures in silence.

Eisenstein looked at them, then turned to look at Vito beside him after a moment, "Where are we going now?"

"Tyra."
