The Emperor’s Angel of Death

Chapter 3106: The Scraps of War

"It's strange for a Sage to ask, what use is a Titan?"

Facing this seemingly suggestive question, Sorsaryan smiled slightly and replied in a relaxed tone.

"Naturally, it's for combat. The types of enemies we face are complex, and more importantly, we have a way to prevent psychic rampages."

"Aren't you worried about being"?

"Thank you for your concern. We will handle coordination with allied forces, and more importantly, we can avoid the suspicion of Mars, or at least minimize it as much as possible."

"I understand, then we will report this matter as soon as possible."

"Yes, thank you for your trouble."

After the Sages left, a figure with his hands behind his back strolled out of the shadows behind Sorsaryan.

"Just one Titan, is it worth it?"

Sorsaryan leaned back and said slowly:

"Sometimes, when encountering more severe situations, it's not easy for me to directly use my own power. The Banshee can be a decoy. Although it's still somewhat taboo, it's not as exaggerated."

"There will always be a day when the lid can't be held down. The Emperor painstakingly managed the Webway project, thinking he had hidden it from most people, but in the end, didn't it still..."

"Alas, I don't have a better way right now. Let's just drag it out as long as we can."

After closing his eyes and being silent for a moment, Sorsaryan continued:

"I met Xerxes."

But only a soft sound came from behind him.

"Mm."

"Talos, you're not surprised at all."

"Didn't you say you had seen him before?"

"This time... it's different. That was the real him, the current him."

"Then does it surprise you, or disappoint you?"

"Your question is a bit strange, brother."

"Didn't you have any reaction or scrutiny when you saw him?"

"He... he speaks very much like a Deceiver, and the feeling he gives is the same, as if he is troubled by an eternal question."

"Do you have a similar problem?"

Sorsaryan chuckled dryly and shook his head.

"Maybe, but in the end, he told me to make a choice as soon as possible."

"Ha, in this regard, they are indeed very similar, always asking questions and giving choices, as if there is always a choice to be made in everything."

"I also met Magnus, inside the Banshee. I suspect he came for me this time, but I feel his behavior is very strange."

"He has always been a very strange person. Whether it's Kayan or Ahriman, they all have some quality from him, always sentimental and full of thoughts, but they don't examine themselves."

"What I mean by strange is that he secretly left me a message."

"Oh?"

There was finally a slight change in Talos's voice.

"What?"

"Beware the Dark King, stay away from the Thunderstone Cathedral."

"Hmm..."

"Do you think this might be a trick of Tzeentch?"

"That depends on how you look at it."

"The name Dark King... I've seen it for the second time. The first time was during the battle with the Lysian Dynasty. The Eldar Laughing God left me this name and then left. Talos, do you know what this means, or what it represents?"

"I... I don't know, but if they really want to warn you about something, then at least they need to explain to you what it is. These vague words are often purposeful, wanting to lure you in a certain direction."

"Yes, that's what I think too. If Magnus really wanted to tell me something, he could have said it directly. I gave him plenty of time. This sneaking around, pretending to be righteous, is really suspicious... By the way, the Necrons who appeared out of nowhere are also a bit unsettling, and the Star God hidden behind the Tyranids, I also feel that guy is a bit off. Alas, so many thoughts, so many things weighing on me. This Tyranid war has disrupted many of my plans. As expected, plans can't keep up with changes."

"Actually, some things you can entrust to someone who is more skilled."

"Hmm?"

Talos's words made Sorsaryan slightly stunned, and then he asked:

"What are you talking about?"

"Regarding the Necron matter, you can actually entrust it to one person, or rather, he has been waiting for you to speak for some time."

"Entrust..."

Suddenly, a thought flashed in Sorsaryan's mind.

"Are you talking about Jaghatai Khan?"

"Yes, I think you should talk to him sometime, it will be much easier than you fighting alone."

"But he doesn't seem to want to interfere in the affairs of the Imperium."

"That's your business, Xerxes's business."

Sorsaryan turned his chair around and looked at Talos.

"Talos, did you... see something?"

"If I have to say, I did see something. Jaghatai can solve some of your problems."

"Is that so? But according to Veronica, he seems to be monitoring Commorragh and the Harlequins in the Webway. If he leaves, will there be unexpected changes?"

"In the past, the Eternal Court was weak and needed to worry about these things, but now the Eternal Court should have enough power to maintain a military presence in the Webway, right?"

Hearing this, Sorsaryan clapped his hands lightly, realizing the truth.

"That's right, the Court has now formed a Webway patrol force, so there's not much to worry about Commorragh or other forces causing trouble in the Webway. Hmm, I need to find some time to talk to Jaghatai."

"Actually, Sorsaryan, you sometimes think too much. I think you should learn from Rozum, things don't necessarily have to be carefully calculated to be done well."

"Haha."

Speaking of Rozum, Sorsaryan showed a relaxed smile, but then shook his head.

"So Rozum is Rozum, and Sorsaryan can only be Sorsaryan."

Then he changed the subject.

"Talos, I feel that this Tyranid war won't end anytime soon. It's not appropriate to keep the entire chapter's strength here for a long time. Eidolon's attack was a warning, and the long-term stay of other chapters of the Covenant of Sorrow in the corresponding Storm Sectors of the Great Parish will also affect the defense. So I have a preliminary idea, which is to conduct tactical rotations in the Great Parish. The Chapter will only maintain 8 companies in the Great Parish, and the chapters of the Covenant of Sorrow will temporarily return to their respective Victory Scars to replenish equipment and personnel. The Penitent and Relictors Chapters, who have not been deployed, will replace them, sending 4 companies of support together, that is, maintaining a force of 12 companies here for a long-term war of attrition with the Tyranids, while fortifying and militarizing the Great Parish. I think the Ecclesiarchy will definitely support this, and it will also allow them to keep the Silent Sisterhood here. In the future, the main defense of each planet will rely on the strength of mortals. By the way, the Auxilia also needs to be rotated. They have been out for many years, and it's time to let them go home and rest for a while. Nason and Brakato both have newly formed troops that can be sent here."
