Chapter 424 Alliance of Brothers
On the day when the Astral Knights Monastery Fortress ushered in the early morning, Soshyan led the Honor Guard to gather at the planetary airport to greet the fleet that had just arrived.
On the console, Soshyan, wearing full ceremonial armor, looked at the holographic projection in front of him, and a noble face appeared in it.
Then he smiled.
“Hello, Brother Malaki.”
Soshyan welcomed him with great sincerity:
"I'm glad you arrived safely."
The other party responded with a calm smile.
"Long time no see, Brother Soshyan."
The welcome ceremony was short and quick, and the Magyar lord who was accompanying him also appropriately expressed his brotherhood, and then the three warriors The leader entered the room in the monastery used for secret meetings.
Soshyan placed a long table and four seats in it. The wide door was closed tightly, and warriors from the three battle groups were guarding the outside.
“This is an expedient measure.”
After a long narrative and explanation, Soshyan made a summary of his actions.
“The end of the 41st millennium is full of crises. Abaddon’s Black Legion has increased the frequency of its incursions into the Empire. The Tyranids have attacked one sector after another. Greenskins are always a hidden danger. If we are rigid If we stick to the dogma, we will not be able to stand up to the world we want to protect, nor to the soldiers who fought bloody battles."
Soshiyang sat on the chair, with the battle of the Astral Knights hanging behind him. flag, and likewise the ascetic flag hung behind the chair on which Magyar sat.
Malakin did not sit down, but paced anxiously in thought.
“Soshyan explained his idea to me in detail not long ago, and although some of the details make me slightly worried, I am increasingly aware of its value.”
Mazar's words made Malakin stop. He looked at the two of them and whispered:
"But this can easily cause misunderstandings by others."
Soshyan sat back. In the chair, hands flat on the edge of the table.
"Brother Malakin, which aspect are you referring to?"
"I am not referring to the alliance. Although this move may be unexpected, it is not without precedent."
Malakin considered it carefully Say your own words.
"The matter of the Soul Drinker. Brother Soshyan, do you still remember the ending of Huron."
"I know that this move is shocking to the world, so I am willing to share this secret with my most recent Shared by a trusting brother, to prove that I am in no way the same as Huron”
Malakin raised his head and looked at the dim light of the midnight sky through the window of the room.
After a long while, the son of Sanguinius said faintly:
“We have all witnessed the disaster, brothers and sisters are killing each other, stars are falling, demons are rampant, and the ancient nightmare is making a comeback.”
Malakin then turned around and looked at Soshyan sincerely.
“Brother Soshyan, I am touched by your trust. Even if you know what Huron has done, you are still unwilling to deceive us. I also want to believe that you are fundamentally different from that traitor. .”
Soshyan stood up and pointed to another empty chair.
"I once swore this oath, and I solemnly promise you now that once the stain on the Soul Drinker's banner is erased, I will restore the warriors to their original identities and rebuild their Chapter. , there will be no delay or argument."
"Are you willing to swear this?"
Malakin looked at him with burning eyes.
“Sincerely.”
Malakin took a deep breath.
"That's it?"
"That's it."
Mazar stood up and immediately drew his sword.
Malakin walked back to his chair and drew out his own sword, while Soshyan drew out the Holy Flame Sword.
Three weapons were crossed on the long table, making a metallic clang sound.
"We swear to watch each other and never betray!"
At the same time, in the underground prison of the monastery fortress, a dark figure slowly walked into the dark tunnel.
Soon, the lights came on, the heavy cell door opened, and the figure walked into the cell.
Taros, who was sitting on a metal bench, looked up but said nothing.
His wrists, ankles and neck were tied with iron ropes driven into the concrete floor. "What are you going to do again?"
Taros said lazily:
"Are you going to give me some extra food today? I'm really tired of eating these cold rations. . ”
“Want some ‘heart-blood rose’? ”
The voice that walked into the cell said with a smile. Talos almost jumped out of his chair when he heard that term - if he was not restrained by chains.
Passion Rose is the most famous wine in his former hometown.
He stared at the figure, recalled the voice, and then whispered:
"First Company Commander"
Sevita lifted his hood, revealing The face was as pale as Talos and the eyes were dark.
"You have always been a difficult person to figure out, which impressed me deeply."
"That's a real honor for me."
Talos made a mocking voice, and then Lean against the wall.
"It is a great honor to be remembered by the God-Emperor's great warrior, Sevatar, Prince of Crows."
"Your mockery means nothing to me, Talos. ”
Savitar walked to the other side of the cell and leaned against the wall as well.
"I'm not here to persuade you to surrender. This is Soshyan's job. I'm just entrusted by others to tell you something."
"Oh? Let me guess.”
Talos sneered at the corner of his mouth.
"It's Markarian, right."
"Then do you want to know."
"Depends on what you want to say."
Savitar stared at him. This look made Talos feel a little creepy, but he forced Don't show any signs of weakness yourself.
About three minutes later, the Crow Prince said slowly:
"Do you know what happened to the Scarlet King."
Talos thought for a moment and shook his head.
Savitar left the wall and walked up to Talos. The two were only a punch apart, almost face to face.
“Look at me, look carefully.”
Hearing Sevita’s words, Talos looked at the other person’s face, and unknowingly fell into the other person’s black hole-like eyes.
Gradually, beads of sweat broke out on Talos's forehead, and his face gradually became paler than a corpse.
"This -"
After a while, his body shook violently, and he collapsed on the chair, while Savitta slowly moved away from him.
“So, you saw it.”
Taros’ eyes widened, his head lowered, looking at the ground, his eyes scattered, as if he had just witnessed something extremely terrifying.
“Then I’m leaving.”
With that said, Savita walked out of the cell door.
“Wait a minute——”
Talos suddenly raised his head and called out to Sevita, although his voice was still trembling.
“Is this, is this his order?”
Sevita looked back at him, a mocking smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"So be it."
Seeing that Savita had walked out of the cell door, Talos suddenly stood up and said loudly and excitedly:
"Ask Soshyan to come see me, immediately!"< br>
