Warhammer, but Emperor's Chosen

Noah glanced at the judge calmly.

Although most of the Empire's inquisitors are crazy, the one in front of him is even more important!

For now, Inquisitor Kriptman's most famous "achievements" include, but are not limited to, the discovery and extermination of 65 new alien races, as well as suppressing the Macharius Rebellion for the Empire.

Even considering these achievements alone, he is definitely an undoubted hero of the empire.

But compared with his later "feats", these are not worth mentioning at all, such as -

In order to force Tyranids to redirect to Octares, he issued an extermination order to hundreds of human worlds, artificially creating a vacuum zone.

The Empire’s attitude towards his behavior is also very clear - this is no longer an ordinary lunatic, and he must be dealt with severely!

Chapter 39: The Ultramarines are a wealthy

The meeting lasted two Terra hours.

Noah followed the crowd and left the meeting room in an orderly manner until only Kliptman and Calga were left in the meeting room. The judge and Calga seemed to have important matters to discuss.

Noah wanted to return to the Stars, but the members of the Honor Guard at the door stopped him:

"Sir Noah, please follow me. Chapter Captain Calgar hopes to see you later."

Noah had no doubts and followed the Honor Guard soldier to a secluded study.

This place seemed to be specially prepared for Calgar. The floor and ceiling were covered with the Imperial double-headed eagle logo, the battle flag of the Ultramarines was hung on the wall, and even the backs of the chairs were carved with skulls.

After waiting for a while, Calgar pushed the door open and walked in, accompanied by the dull footsteps of the power armor.

Karga got straight to the point:

"Sir Noah, thank you again for everything you have done for Macragge. So I have been wondering, what can I do for you?"

Since Noah came to Macragge, he has made enough contributions to this planet.

But so far, Noah has never made any demands on the Ultramarines.

This certainly shows that Noah is a noble person, but it will inevitably make Calga feel bad - you have to order something, right?

Even if Noah really doesn't want anything, Calgar can't just give him nothing, as that would only make the Extreme Warriors seem inhumane.

Moreover, with the alien invasion imminent, even Calgar was not confident that he could defend Macragge. Once Macragge fell, the Ultramarines would inevitably perish under the claws of the aliens.

By then, Noah will never have the chance to repay everything he has done for the Ultramarines - he can't ask the dead to repay him, right?

Noah thought for a moment:

"The alien invasion is imminent. If possible, I would like to upgrade the weapons of my flagship."

Calgar said without hesitation:

"You can make the modifications to Galtan Fortress, and all expenses will be borne by the Ultramarines."

"Is the Nova Cannon okay?" Noah asked.

"As long as the Ultramarines have any left in stock."

Nova Cannons are indeed precious, but the Extreme Marines really have no shortage of them. No matter how many Noah wants to install, Calgar doesn't care.

"Any other requests?" asked Karga.

"Hmm~"

Noah fell into deep thought, then said seriously:

"If possible, I need a set of power armor."

Calgar frowned immediately, not because Noah asked for too much, but because he asked for too little!

Is power armor valuable?

It is extremely precious, and even more precious when it can be used by mortals.

In the Imperium, only Space Marines, Sisters of Battle and Inquisitors can be equipped with power armor in large quantities.

There is no need to say much about the Space Marines. The Inquisitors are backed by the Inquisition, and the Battle Sisters are the only armed force that the Ecclesiarchy can legally possess. They have always been used as a facade by the Ecclesiarchy, so their weapons and equipment are in no way inferior to those of the Space Marines.

This shows how precious power armor is.

however--

This is Macragge! The homeworld of the Ultramarines!

Isn't it a bit disrespectful for you to just ask for a set of power armor?

Even if he added what Noah wanted, Calgar still felt it was "poor" - a nova cannon plus a set of power armor, what kind of reward was that?

After receiving such a big favor, you only want such a small gift. Are you looking down on the wealth of the Extreme Warriors?

Since what Noah asked for was so little, Calgar even doubted whether this wandering trader was qualified.

But he soon felt relieved.

After all, in terms of time, Noah is just a rookie who has just inherited the Rogue Trader Dynasty for less than a year. He has not yet learned the Rogue Traders' fine tradition of profit-seeking, so it is normal that he cannot bargain.

But the same thing applies - you can give up Noah, but you can’t give him up as the Extreme Warriors!

Karga asked, "Any other requests?"

"I need a batch of cyclone torpedoes."

"How much?"

"Not many, ten... five will be enough."

Karga looked at him deeply and nodded slightly:

"can."

Five whirlwind torpedoes, enough to destroy five imperial worlds.

A cyclone torpedo alone is more valuable than everything Noah asked for except the nova cannon. Because in the human empire, the only two groups that can use cyclone torpedoes to issue extermination orders are the Inquisition and the Space Marines.

However, any issuance of an extermination order will attract strict scrutiny from the human government and the Inquisition.

If the measures of extermination are deemed unnecessary, the Inquisitor who issued the order will be declared a heretic and arrested. Space Marines also have to bear corresponding political risks, and even the founding chapters such as the Ultramarines will face great pressure.

If Noah used the Extermination Order against any Imperial world at random, the Inquisition would definitely trace the source of the whirlwind torpedoes back to the Ultramarines. In other words, the Ultramarines would be held accountable for his actions.

Because even if this matter has nothing to do with the Ultramarines, it will definitely be considered as being instructed by the Ultramarines.

But Calgar still did not hesitate at all, and did not even intend to ask about its purpose.

But he understands.

Noah asked him for the whirlwind torpedoes, not just the torpedoes themselves.

More importantly, whatever he does with these torpedoes, he will have the endorsement of the Extreme Marines!

The value of this is greater than any promise.

of course.

If Noah wanted to use the whirlwind fish to blow up Holy Terra, the Extreme Warriors would immediately distance themselves from him.

Seeing that the terms had been agreed upon, Calgar suddenly spoke:

"One more thing. Inquisitor Kriptman wishes to have a private meeting with you."

Noah's eyelids twitched.

"I've already declined for you."

Calgar continued, "If Inquisitor Kriptman asks you to meet privately later, you can inform me at any time."

Inquisitors have always been synonymous with trouble, and almost no one is not afraid of them.

From planetary governors to high lords of the Empire, the Inquisitor theoretically has the power to investigate and arrest everyone. Even among the Space Marines, there are many who are secretly loyal to the Inquisition in the history of the Empire for tens of thousands of years.

Not to mention wandering traders like Noah who walk in the gray area.

If the Inquisition is determined to punish him, there is always a charge that suits him, such as collusion with aliens, chaos corruption, and tax evasion.

Fortunately, although the inquisitors are crazy, they are not completely irrational and they can judge the most basic interests.

Kliptman took the initiative to ask Calga for a private meeting with Noah. Such a gentle attitude was actually a gesture of goodwill to him.

Otherwise, based on the Tribunal's style of doing things, Kliptman could have just rushed into Noah's room with his men and kidnapped him along with his blanket.

Don't disbelieve me? Our court arrests people mainly for doing whatever they want.

If I say you are guilty, you are guilty!

As long as you want to arrest someone, you will never lack an excuse.

Chapter 40 She is such a beauty!

Return to Macragge for the fourth week.

The transformed Starship finally sailed out of the Galtan Star Fortress.

Noah, wearing Ignatus-type power armor, stopped in the corridor of the starport and stared through the glass at the Moon-class cruiser sailing through the dark space outside the window.

The changes to the Stars were not major, except that the torpedo tubes and rams at the bow were removed and replaced with more powerful Nova cannons.

Nono originally wanted to install a long-range lance turret array on the back of the battleship, but unfortunately time was limited, so this plan had to be temporarily abandoned.

But even with just this Nova Cannon, the firepower of the Constellation would be epically enhanced. It is no exaggeration to say that a single Nova Cannon is much more powerful than all the other weapons arrays on the Constellation fired at once!

If there is any flaw in the Nova Cannon, it is probably its slow rate of fire and low hit rate.

If other naval officers were to replace torpedoes with nova guns, they would probably find it difficult to understand. After all, nova guns are notoriously difficult to use and have extremely low firepower accuracy. Many naval captains would rather use torpedoes instead of nova guns.

After all, torpedoes are easy to operate, and with their lower speed they can easily ignore the defense of the void shield. However, for Noah, the value of the Nova Cannon far exceeds that of the torpedo, because it can make up for the small defect of poor accuracy!

"She's such a beauty! Isn't she?"

The man's slightly exaggerated admiration made Noah look sideways. The Inquisitor, wearing the same model of golden power armor, was walking towards him with a smile.

Noah used his eyes to stop Sister Ajetta from approaching and gave her a polite greeting:

"Good afternoon, Judge Kliptman."

Kliptman hadn't come to see him since he was warned by Karga last time.

But Noah also understood that he couldn't possibly not come to find him forever, so they "met by chance" here.

"Afternoon? Well, maybe it really is afternoon now."

Kliptman asked with interest:

"What should I call you? Monsignor von Valancius?"

"You can call me Noah."

"So, Noah."

Kliptman smiled gently, "Are you interested in establishing a long-term cooperative relationship with me?"

"What do you mean?" Noah asked.

"Anything, Noah."

Klippetman spoke softly, "What happened on Macragge will eventually be reported to Terra in detail, and all the details will eventually be archived. Although the Ultramarines will be grateful for everything you have done for them, believe me, not everyone thinks so. There is no shortage of short-sighted villains in the Inquisition, and they will definitely try to dig out the secrets of you. And the way they use it, believe me, it will not be too gentle.

"Of course, the Ultramarines will protect you, but they won't protect you forever. I mean, you won't be on Macragge forever, will you?"

"Does this include you?"

"What? No, of course not, what makes you think that?"

Kliptman's eyes widened, as if he was genuinely surprised. "Noah, believe me, I'm trying to help you!"

"I appreciate it, but how are you going to help me?"
