So Noah was the acting throne officer in the beginning, and now he has become an interrogator, and one step further is to become a formal judge!

of course.

Although it sounds like there is only a fine line between them, this fine line is the most difficult.

Because the Inquisitor sounds high-ranking, but in fact he is just an extension of the Inquisitor's personal will, and his power comes from the Inquisitor he belongs to. So whether it is the lowest-level apprentice or the highest-level Inquisitor, they are essentially the same, and are all the Inquisitor's personal attendants.

But if he had the chance to become a formal inquisitor, he and his former master would be on completely equal footing.

However, if an interrogator wants to become a judge, he must have the formal recommendation of three judges. You can imagine how difficult this is.

"Let's talk about what happened to you on Daven."

Kliptman said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Terran Inquisition will send an inquisitor to Macragge within a year. Given the particularity of what happened to you, both the Order of the Holy Hammer and the Order of the Heretic should send delegations. The Order of the Heretic has a close relationship with the Ecclesiarchy and will not make things too difficult for you. But you must focus on the Order of the Holy Hammer. They will definitely try to get to the bottom of the matter and find out the truth."

Noah asked calmly:

"So what should I do? Tell the truth?"

Kliptman gave him a deep look:

"On the contrary, you must keep your mouth shut! No matter what he asks, you don't have to answer. Because no matter what you say, they will not believe it. They only believe the results of their own investigation. But there is one thing you must remember,"

Kliptman said earnestly, "We are just humble servants of the Emperor, holding the fruits of his thoughtful consideration!"

"..."

Noah hesitated and asked, "Excuse me, who said this?"

Kliptman's face turned serious:

"Malcador the Hero."

Chapter 117 Kill One Thousand Enemies, Lose Eight Hundred of Your Own

Hero Malcador.

This was certified by the Emperor himself.

Although many Primarchs had mixed opinions about Malcador, most of them were negative, only Leman Russ had a very harmonious relationship with him.

But in the eyes of mortals, he is the undisputed hero of the empire.

Even within the Imperium of Man today, Malcador's influence is everywhere.

The three major power institutions of the Empire, the Ministry of the Interior, the Inquisition, and the Assassins' Court, all regarded Malcador as their ancestor, and this was indeed the case, because Malcador was not only the first head of the Ministry of the Interior, but also the founder of the Assassins' Court and the Inquisition.

Noah also respected Malcador, not only because he had proposed making the Primarch a woman, but also because of his outstanding contributions to the Imperium of Man and his unparalleled loyalty to the Emperor.

The Emperor's Warmaster would betray him, his mate would betray him, even his son would betray him, but not Malcador!

Noah nodded solemnly:

"I remember."

Although this sentence was not originally written by Malcador, out of respect for Malcador, Noah still felt that he should keep it in mind.

Kliptman said:

"Don't worry too much. Even if they are the Order of the Holy Hammer, they have to follow the rules. And it takes a long time to get from Terra to Macragge. You have enough time to figure out how to deal with them."

"besides."

He paused slightly, "Regarding the Tiger Claws, I shouldn't have asked too much about this matter. But, do they really have no survivors?"

"No."

Noah nodded. "They all fought against the Chaos enemy until the very end. The Ultramarines, Blood Angels, and Dark Angels all witnessed their heroic sacrifices."

"What a shame."

Kliptman also expressed regret, "They are loyal people, but they did not get the rewards they deserved."

"This is a necessary sacrifice."

Noah said lightly, "It is also the death they have longed for."

It is better to die in battle against the great enemy of Chaos than to die at the hands of one's own men. The former is a glorious death in battle, while the latter will be wiped from the Chapter records and become a piece of history that will never be remembered.

Kliptman was silent for a long time, then said with emotion:

"I hope the Empire will treat their Chapter well for their sacrifice!"

Noah made no comment, neither agreeing nor refuting.

He watched Kliptman's performance quietly, without any emotion in his heart.

Even though his relationship with Kliptman seems to be harmonious, the Inquisitor is still the Inquisitor after all.

Noah wasn't sure if this was his true attitude or if he was just pretending.

If anyone dares to confide in the judge casually, the judge will bring people to your door the next day and ask for a reward in the form of your head!

"correct."

Kliptman suddenly asked, "How about doing something for me while you stay in Macragge?"

"What do you need me to do?"

Kliptman sighed:

"The Tau have been attacking the Empire's border worlds recently, trying to retake the worlds that were recaptured by the Empire during the Damocles Crusade, but the Empire simply cannot spare more troops to stop them."

The Empire is full of holes, and the Imperial Navy and the Astra Militarum must prioritize the most dangerous war zones. But the cost of doing so is that other less important worlds will be abandoned.

This is the case with the border planets that are facing the threat of invasion by the Tau. Most of these border colonies are still in feudal society and cannot provide more tax revenue for the empire. Even if they are abandoned, it will not have much impact.

Noah asked thoughtfully:

"So, do I need to stop the Tau fleet or retake those occupied planets?"

Kliptman smiled:

"No, no, no, Noah. What we need to do is not to stop the expansion of the aliens, but to implement an extermination order on the worlds occupied by the aliens."

"Is it really necessary?" Noah frowned.

"What do you mean?" Klippman asked.

Noah thought about it and said:

"Even if we can't hold these worlds for the time being and have to hand them over to the Tau, these colonies are far away from the homeland of the Tau Empire, and the Tau Empire cannot station large-scale troops here. As long as the Imperial Navy is free, we can still easily retake these worlds, just like the Damocles Expedition. If we easily issue an extermination order for these worlds, how are you going to deal with the review of the Extermination Order?"

"Don't worry about me, Noah."

Kliptman smiled nonchalantly, "This is also part of the quarantine plan. In order to divert the Tyranids to the Tau Empire, these worlds bordering the Tau Empire were originally to be dealt with by the Extermination Order."

"I see." Noah suddenly realized, but felt a little embarrassed:

"But I don't have that many whirlwind torpedoes."

"It's okay, I have it."

Kliptman said leisurely, "You don't need to do it yourself, just provide escort for my ship."

Tau.

Among all the major races in the galaxy, they are one of the very few, or even the only one, that is still on the rise.

The glorious era of humans and the Eldar has long gone, and both sides are struggling to survive in the end of sustainability. The happy greenskins don't care about the rise or decline, and most of them are still sleeping.

But precisely because the Tau are so ambitious, they are bound to come into conflict with other races in the galaxy.

The first to be affected are humans and orcs, because in the galaxy, only these two have the largest territories.

Treat orcs.

The Tau people clearly understand that there is only war between them, and the Tau Empire gradually grew in the war against the Orks.

When it comes to humans, the Tau will first send the Water Caste to infiltrate. Most of the time, the local rulers will be persuaded by the Water Caste through years of infiltration and voluntarily accept the Tau's higher good.

As for those stubborn worlds, the Tau can only regretfully use their fleets and combat uniforms to influence them.

Farsight, holding the Blade of Honor in one hand and the Pulse Pistol in the other, stood on the top of the mountain and observed the city in the distance. Most of the city had been occupied by the Fire Warriors, and the only remaining human defense force was still resisting.

"I just don't understand."

He heard someone ask, "How did humans manage to be both advanced and primitive?"

"I don't know, Xia Si'ou." Yuanjian turned around and looked at Liang Jian and replied honestly.

He had fought human invaders on his home world of Dar'Is, and knew just how great a threat aliens called humans could pose.

Although the laser guns of ordinary human soldiers were not as good as the pulse guns of the fire warriors, he was still deeply impressed by the transformed warriors called Astartes by humans and those huge war machines, the Titans.

In the Battle of Dar'Is, they successfully repelled the invasion of human invaders. However, the home world still suffered serious losses due to the war, and more than 90% of the population died in the war.

Although many commanders were indignant and believed that if they had not negotiated with humans at the time, but instead relied directly on the huge fleet assembled by the Tau Empire to fight against humans, they could have completely wiped out these invaders.

But everyone understands that this will inevitably come at a huge cost.

The defense fleet of Dar'Is had already been destroyed in the space battle with humans. Actual combat proved that their warships were completely unable to compete with humans. Even if the Tau Empire could rely on a larger number to destroy the human invaders, the loss was not something they could easily bear.

But once the huge war machine starts, it is not easy to stop it.

Shortly after the two sides successfully reached peace talks in Dar'Is, the Water Caste was still looking forward to having more diplomatic negotiations with humans, but the rear of the Tau Empire was inexplicably attacked.

The human fleet invaded the world of Berk'Anjiamen and successfully turned the world into a scorched earth.

Everyone understood that this was just an accident. The human fleet might not even know that the war was over because they were too deep into the territory of the Tau Empire. The human messenger ships were unable to pass on the information about the peace talks between the two sides to them.

But the destruction of the Bock'Anjiamen world still shocked the entire Tau Empire!

As the research center of the Earth Clan, the world of Bok'anjiamen is almost the second home planet of the Earth Clan. It not only stores a large amount of core technology of the Tau Empire, but also has a large number of advanced weapons production factories, but all of these were burned down by humans in the war.

The scientific research results of the Tu clan have suffered irreparable losses, and may be set back dozens or even hundreds of years. Such losses are even more heartbreaking than the war on Dar'Is!

As a result, the calls for war became louder and louder.

They wanted revenge, revenge with hatred, for the human invasion of Dar'Is and Bok'An.

The Ethers are trying to calm the people, but they still want humans to pay the price, so they launched this attack.

In retaliation for humanity's invasion of their home world, the T'au Empire assembled its largest fleet yet to launch a new offensive against human territory.

Farsight had expected that this would be met with fierce resistance from the humans, a battle no less fierce than the one on Dar'Is. The Ethers thought so too, otherwise they would not have assembled such a large fleet.

But it turns out that it didn’t.

This was already the fifth human world they had conquered, but there was still no effective resistance. The human defense force was pitifully small, there was no space fleet at all, and there were only a few tens of thousands of ground troops.

Although their courage in fighting the Fire Warriors was admirable, the human world was too primitive, with many still armed with spears and bows.

It is no wonder that when the Water Caste first came into contact with humans, they mistakenly thought that this was just an uncivilized alien race.

"Didn't Ether tell you anything?" Liang Jian asked.

"The Ether and Water Clan also have very limited knowledge of humans. Almost all the information we know comes from Guvisa. According to the information given by Guvisa, who calls himself the 'Inquisitor', these planets are just remote colonies of humans. Before we occupied them, the human empire would not even notice them."

Liang Jian found it a little funny:

"So that's why the humans didn't fight back against our attacks? Because they didn't care?"

Farsightedness stepped forward and walked down the hill:

"Maybe."

"Last time they directly destroyed our home world!"

Bright Sword yelled at him, "If they don't care, why did they invade us?"

"This is where the problem lies."

Farsight replied, "That was humanity's revenge, just like what we are doing now."

"Then why didn't they retaliate this time?"

Farsight stopped and asked, "How do you know there isn't one?"

Revenge may not necessarily start with them.
