Chapter 141 That Man
In the deep black sky at Mandeville Point in the Belakahn galaxy, a battle barge painted entirely in ultramarine with a huge reversed "Ω" logo appeared. , and after some communication, she switched to cruise mode, using her ordinary thrusters to slowly circle around the route outside the asteroid belt.
The communication channel of Belakaan's main nest that was just connected showed them that although the Starport Terminal of the Forge World was a little unusually busy, everything was operating normally and safely under the light of the God-Emperor. , but there are some "seasonal factors" that are force majeure, so 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 have no problem with docking at the port according to the other party's request. Although it is indeed a bit slower than the previous times, the twenty-four hours is relatively long compared to their mission. Speaking of it, it is not so urgent that any forced action must be carried out, especially considering that, rarely, the Ultramarines are really asking for something from someone.
This is not the first time they have come to the distant Calixis sector to visit the forge world of Belakarn.
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 like the stasis bomb, which is a little secret of some... um... chapter with a sole monopoly on production. There are still other forge worlds in the galaxy that can They were produced, but their quality was not as good and reliable as the ones produced by Belakarn. Therefore, out of some worries and a prophecy, the master of the armory of Hera Fortress sent several of his technicians here. The sergeant came here, and with him came powerful warriors trusted by the Chapter Master.
Given the recent stasis of Macragge, which is essentially the eternal tomb of their genetic father, it seems very suspicious - consider that in just a short period of time they have experienced everything they have experienced for the past ten thousand years. Events that have never happened before - such as the body of the Ultramarines original being suspected of disappearing in a stasis position that could not undergo such a significant and rapid change, suspected of making an expression, suspected - in short, very, very disturbing And doubt the quality of work of this stasis stand device.
When the Ultramarines Techmarines, at the request of Chapter Master Calgar, overhauled the position generating device in the great Primarch's resting place, for some unknown reason, Robert Guillimanar The ancient machine soul of the Stasis Stand Shrine, which had been working smoothly for thousands of years, reacted very displeasedly, 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 hymns to appease the naked eye. The machine spirit began to become furious, and under the watchful eyes of the Ultramarines chapter leaders and company commanders behind it, they desperately prayed and comforted it, and secretly prayed that the machine spirit would not be so angry that it refused 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 brand 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 ability, the picture of the prophecy is original. It shouldn’t be revealed to me so frequently and so accurately that something big must be happening, my lord, and I am very worried about this.”
Manius Calga responded. , "We are the Ultramarines, we are Diglis, son of Guilliman. Our courage and glory shine upon us, and if necessary, we will fight until the stars fall, not just to bring glory To our Gene-Father and the Emperor of Mankind, but also to all of humanity.”
The Librarian bowed his head at the words of his Chapter Master, the 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? Tell us, Diglis, and what to do next."
"I saw many scarred and oily wings growing again, shining with the light of stars. The figure, with a pure skull on its head, or a skull mask on its head, emerged from the stars, trampling on the ugly land, turning the green soil it stepped on into a desert, its eyes stared at us, and I followed it My eyes have seen this place, Macragge's solemn temple, and I have also seen you here repairing the shrine in a panic. The skeleton seems to know my worries," the chief think tank murmured, his crystal psionic hood The starting point of blue light began to shine again, "It looked at me, as if it wanted to say something, but I couldn't hear it clearly... until I found an ice cube frozen with red iron in my hand."
"This What does it 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 throne is above, Tigris," he The Chapter Leader 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. That was the sixth company commander, Maximus Apathus. His company was quite familiar with the armory. The armory is guarded by their personnel most of the time, and many of the technical sergeants themselves come from the companies under him.
"Captain Apathus, please elaborate on the term you just mentioned."
"Belakarn Forge World," the Sixth Company Captain replied, "That is What I heard when I was a new recruit is that this forge world is made of a large amount of iron and ice, and it was once known as the best stasis stand production site in the entire galaxy." He also added, "I So I keep this in mind precisely because the person who told me at the time said, 'Bela Kahn's stasis technology is so good that even the defenders of the Golden Throne will 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 Bella Kahn seems to have been reluctant to accept orders, visit and export related products and technologies a long time ago,” answered another technical sergeant, “I remembered , which caused its reputation to plummet rapidly within the empire.”
“Then it seems that it is necessary for us to send a team of envoys there.”
Manius Calga. His eyes turned to a reliable warrior who could be trusted.
"Sicarius."
Gua.
There are two, slow code
Uhhhhhhhh
Let me just say that today may be a little later than before, and tomorrow will be the same
Just now I When I was eating dinner, I pinched the trash and prepared to throw it away, but there was a toothpick inserted directly into the flesh of my finger【
Because it is located under the bend of the middle finger joint, it hurts a little when I type...【
