Chapter 608 The Secret of the First Legion


Chapter 608 The Secret of the First Legion

“We have entered the sphere of influence of the planet’s gravity well!”

The interrogation priest turned around, walked across the bridge, and stood behind the helm.

The mechanic quickly glanced at the interrogating priest, and after learning of his arrival, he turned his attention back to driving the Savior.

“How far is it to Vera III?”

the interrogating priest asked, his harsh voice laced with metal.

"About twenty-five million kilometers, Lord Priest."

Ericon nodded.

"Communication station, contact the Astral Knight's battleship to see if they respond."

The interrogation priest then strode towards the communication station.

"There is interference from part of the asteroid belt here, Pastor, but I think so. We received a signal and the other party agreed to the communication request."

The liaison officer breathed a sigh of relief. Every time when the priest approaches, They will all be very nervous.

Ericon then opened the main communicator.

"This is the Redemption Angel. I am Interrogation Chaplain Ericon Goldberg. Please answer."

The Interrogation Chaplain stopped and waited for a while, but he only received a burst of Static noise.

"Communication station, are you sure we have a strong enough signal to connect?"

Ericon Goldberg asked, with a hint of impatience in his metallic voice.

"Yes, Lord Priest, we-"

The communications officer's reply was interrupted by a sudden voice.

"This is the Unbound Soul. I am Lothar of the Astral Knights. Welcome, His Excellency Ericon Goldberg, the interrogation priest of the Dark Angels."

An unfamiliar voice suddenly came from the intercom of the communication station.

"Hello, brothers of the Astral Knights, I hope our sudden visit did not cause you any trouble."

"In fact, we were indeed surprised, because our chapter was executing Mission, and I didn’t know in advance that you would also visit this place.”

A strange smile appeared on Ericon’s face.

“No, we are not here to visit.”

"Oh? I don't quite understand what you mean."

"We are here to meet with Chapter Master Soshyan Alexei of the Astral Knights Chapter. We have a few questions to ask. "

"Huh? How did you know that the Chapter Leader was here?"

The voice on the other end of the communicator suddenly became nervous.

“You have been following us!?”

At this time, the nervous voice of the Lord of Zhancha sounded on the console.

"Report! The opponent's void shield and weapon array have been activated! And they have begun to lock on us!"

"Brother Lothar, please don't be nervous, we have no ill intentions."

After signaling with his hand not to activate the weapon array in response, the interrogation priest said to the communicator in a gentle tone:

"We just want to talk to Chapter Master Soshyan."


At first, the communicator didn't reply.

About three minutes later, Lothar's cold voice came.

"The Chapter Master is not on the ship, he is performing a mission on the ground."

"Then can I visit him personally, with only five people, and our ship will stop in orbit."

There was another moment of silence.

But this time the interrogation priest was not in a hurry. He knew that the other party must be in contact with the ground.

About ten minutes later, the response came.

"The Chapter Master agreed." "Thank you very much."

Close the communicator, the interrogation priest turned and left the command deck, and said to the man wearing a hood beside him A soldier in the robe said:

"Gather five people and follow me to the flight deck."

"Yes"

In the canyon on the ground, Soshyan was standing next to a hill where green skin corpses were piled up. A soldier is using a flamethrower to roast the mountain of corpses.

The air is filled with the spicy smell of blood and spores, so much so that many people's breathing filters are blocked. The soldiers are dealing with the battlefield as much as possible, but there are too many green-skinned corpses. , too broken.

Not far away, the remains of the original starship were still smoking. Its main frame had been baked black, and the surrounding attached structures had become scattered parts and fragments.

After turning off the communicator, Soshyan's expression became very strange.

“The Dark Angel is coming.”

“It’s those sons of bitches again!”

Talos snorted, not hiding his contempt. and insult.

“How did they get here?”

"According to Lothar, the other party should have been following us a long time ago."

"Shit! Have their stalker habits not changed in ten thousand years?"

"You Why do you think they did this?”

Feeling the heat of the flames around him, Soshyan led Talos to the edge of the battlefield so that their conversation would not attract the attention of others.

“At least it’s not for me.”

"I know this."

To be honest, Soshyan is very unfamiliar with the Dark Angels. He has only seen some information and records about them in the Chapter Archives, but the First Legion itself He is famous for being mysterious, and there is nothing that can be seen in the public information.

However, he did know that since the outbreak of the Great Rebellion, the First Legion had been entangled with the Eighth Legion, basically throughout the entire process of the Great Rebellion.

Therefore, Talos should be very familiar with them, or know them well.

“That’s why I asked you to see your opinion.”

Talos was silent for a while, and then whispered:

"I'm afraid it has something to do with those fallen angels."

"Fallen angels?"

Soshiyang thought, The mysterious emblem that appeared in the New Badab Battle suddenly popped into my mind. It seemed that that was the symbol of the Fallen Angel.

"What exactly are the Fallen Angels? Are they just rebels, are they worthy of their persistence? If I remember correctly, almost every legion has traitors. Over the past ten thousand years, how many sons of Guilliman have fallen into darkness , haven’t you seen the Ultramarines chasing people all over the world?”

"Tch, do you really think they are just chasing traitors? They are just trying to cover up a big lie."

Talos looked at Soshiyang and said in a serious tone:

" But don't show it in front of those bastards. You know what? Those bastards are very neurotic."

"What is that big lie?"

"I can't tell you. In the past, it was probably only related to the destruction of Caliban and the original body, but their organizational structure itself contained huge secrets.”

"How to say?"

"The organizational structure of the First Legion is very different from that of all other legions. Their main body is called the 'Six Wings'. In Terran language, it should be called the Sixfold Branch. They are Terror Wing, Storm Wing, Raven Wing, Steel Wing, Fire Wing and Death Wing

, but the command level within the Six Wings is not fixed

They are above the Six Wings There are at least two secret command levels, and these command structures are stacked together. If you are not a senior veteran of the First Army, you can't figure out who is commanding whom."

Soshiyan. After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't grasp the key point.

"Is this a secret?"

"No, it doesn't count. I know the story of Guilliman splitting the legion, but do you know that after the first legion was split, their sub-legions were still able to Chasing traitors all over the world in a unified manner."

"Is there such a thing?"

"It would have been understandable at first, but it has been ten thousand years. Don’t you think it’s strange that the sub-groups are still carrying out the order to kill the fallen angels when they were created?”

“You mean that although the First Legion seems to have been split up, in fact they are still there? Retaining a secret command layer that controls all sub-groups? ”

Talos smiled noncommittally.
