Warhammer: Start with a dog.

Chapter 141 That Man

In the deep black sky at Mandeville Point in the Belakahn galaxy, a battle barge painted in ultramarine with a huge inverted "Ω" logo appeared, and after some communication, it switched to cruise mode. , using her ordinary thrusters to slowly circle around the route outside the asteroid belt.

The communication channel of Belakahn's main nest that had just been connected showed them that although the Starport Terminal of the Forging World was a little unusually busy, everything was operating normally and safely under the light of the God Emperor, but some were force majeure. "Seasonal factors", therefore guests from the distant extreme star field are asked to wait outside the internal route. They can dock in the port in about twenty-four hours.

In this case, the Ultramarines did not have any problem with docking at the port according to the other party's request. Although it was indeed a bit slower than the previous times, the twenty-four hours was not that big compared to their mission. It was so urgent that any coercive action had to be carried out, especially considering that, rarely, the Ultramarines were really asking for something.

This was not the first time they had visited the forge world of Belakarn in the distant Calixis sector.

Because the Empire has always had an insatiable demand for stasis weapons, large and small - such as the famous and rare stasis grenades, as well as stasis projectors and stasis stances, and the highest quality in the galaxy that has been continuously produced here. In the past, the armory masters, technical sergeants and army mechanical priests of the Ultramarines would travel across the galaxy to pay a special visit to this frontier place when necessary.

Stasis stances and stasis grenades are not some...well...chapter's little secret with a sole monopoly on production like stasis bombs. There are still other forge worlds in the galaxy that can produce them, but their The quality is not as good and reliable as the one produced by Bella Kahn. Therefore, out of some worries and some prophecies, the master of the armory of Hera Fortress sent several of his technical sergeants here to work together. Also coming were powerful warriors trusted by the Chapter Master.

Given that Macragge's recent stagnant position as essentially the eternal tomb of their genetic father seemed very suspicious - considering that in just a short period of time they had experienced events that had not occurred in ten thousand years - -For example, the body of the Ultramarines Primarch seems to be disappearing in a stasis position that is unlikely to undergo such a significant and rapid change. It is suspected that it has made an expression, and it is suspected--in short, it is very, very disturbing and suspicious of this stasis position. The working quality of the device.

When the Ultramarines technical sergeants, at the request of Chapter Master Calgar, overhauled the position generating device in the great Primarch's resting place, for some reason, Robert Guilliman's device, which had been working smoothly for thousands of years, The ancient machine soul in the Stasis Stand Shrine reacted very displeased, and things began to get a little out of control. The technical sergeants and mechanical priests had to use a lot of incense, holy oil, and chants to appease the machine that was starting to become furious. Under the watchful eyes of the Ultramarines Chapter Leaders and Company Commanders behind the scenes, they desperately prayed and comforted it, and secretly prayed that the Machine Soul would not be so angry that it would refuse to work on the spot.

That also means - the moment the stasis stance fails, Robert Guilliman will "really" die.

Until the chief think tank Digoris, the Astartes who has the best mastery of prophecy among the Empire's Space Marine Chapters, came to the solemn and huge hall of the Solemn Temple.

He brought a new prophecy of instructions to everyone who was in a state of distress.

"I don't know why this happened," Diglis's experienced but deep and wise tone also contained obvious confusion, "According to the training I have received and my abilities, prophecy scenes should not be so frequent... …It was accurately revealed to me that something big must be happening, my lord, and I am very worried about this.”

Maneus Calgar responded, "We are the Ultramarines, we are Tigris, son of Guilliman. Our courage and our glory shine upon us, and if necessary, we will fight until the stars fall. At that moment, it was not just to honor our Gene-Father and the Emperor of Mankind, but also to honor all of humanity."

The Librarian bowed to the extremely loyal words of his Chapter Master and Lord of Ultramar, "Exactly so, you are always so steadfast and reliable, Calgar of Ultramar."

The Chapter Master's bright blue eyes and his other red mechanically enhanced prosthetic eye looked at the chief think tank at the same time, "Seeing our father's tomb disturbed, my inner uneasiness is like the waves of Garland Falls. So prophecy How was it explained to you? Tigris, tell us, and tell us what to do next.”

"I saw many, scarred and oily wings growing again, shining with the light of stars, a figure with a pure skull on its head, or a skull mask on its head, born from the stars, trampling on the ugly land, The green soil it stepped on turned into a desert, and its eyes stared at us. Following its gaze, I saw this place, the solemn temple of Macragge, and I also saw the way you were repairing the shrine in a hurry here. That skeleton As if it knew my worries," the chief think tank murmured, and his crystal psychic hood began to shine with blue light again. "It looked at me as if it wanted to say something, but I couldn't hear it clearly... until I realized There is an ice cube frozen with red iron in my hand."

"What does this mean?" the Chapter Leader asked impatiently.

The chief think tank shook his head, "I'm not sure, but I know that if I come here, someone will be able to give me an answer."

"Your Majesty, Diglis," his Chapter Master shook his head, "Are all prophecies such puzzling riddles?"

"The prophecy can only guide, my lord, and I follow the guidance." "Bela Kahn?" A voice sounded hesitantly.

All the soldiers looked at the person who made the voice, which was the sixth company commander, Maximus Apaces. His company was very familiar with the armory, and they assigned personnel to guard the armory most of the time. Yes, many technical sergeants themselves came from his company.

"Captain Apaces, please elaborate on the term you just mentioned."

"Belakarn Forge World," the Sixth Company Commander replied, "That's what I heard about when I was a recruit. This forge world is made of a large amount of iron and ice, and it used to be the best in the entire galaxy. "The Stasis Stand is famous for its production," he added, "The reason why I remember this is because someone told me at the time, 'Bela Kahn's stasis technology is so good that even the Golden Throne The maintainers will also send envoys to ask questions'."

"Since it is so important and is also very beneficial to the tomb of our genetic father, why have I never heard of its name in my limited memory?" the Chapter Leader questioned.

"Because Bellakahn seems to have been reluctant to accept orders, visit and export related products and technologies a long time ago," answered another technical sergeant, "I think of it, this makes it famous. It plummeted rapidly within the empire.”

"Then it seems that it is necessary for us to send a team of envoys there."

Manius Calgar turned his attention to a reliable warrior who could be trusted.

"Sicarius."
