Chapter 1820 Midnight Visitor
“Can’t remember”
Hearing Soshyan’s answer, Veronica hesitated for a moment and said carefully:
“Husband , there is something. In fact, I should have told you early in the morning, but the instructor has always forbidden me to say it, saying that there will be very serious consequences."
"Yes——"
"Do you still remember that I entered your mind when we first met? In addition to touching the cold essence of gray marrow, I also unexpectedly discovered that there was an almost disappearing psychological echo in the depths of you. According to my way of layering memories, Understand, it should have been left when you were very young, and it has to be very deep to leave very thin traces after so many years."
Soshiyang's eyes widened slightly.
“You are saying”
“The fact that you want to become a Space Marine may not come from your original intention, but the continuous interference of some external force.”
< br>Soshiyang's eyes twitched, this was beyond his acceptance range. Is his life so far really just an absurd script woven by someone?
"And think about it, your ancestors met the Eleven Primarchs, and ten thousand years later you became a Space Marine and the best adapter for Gray Marrow. Is this a coincidence?"
Quest Although Shi Yang was turbulent in his heart, he still forced a smile on his face and joked in a not-easy tone:
“Forget it, these investigations are meaningless, and then again, If I don’t become a Space Marine, won’t I be able to meet you, and I won’t be able to meet Talos and the others? It doesn’t seem so bad if you think about it.”
“You. And you said, you. In the second half of his life, my father suddenly went crazy to investigate the family history and past events, just to find the hometown of your family? I think it may not be that simple. He lost his favorite son. Maybe he wanted to know why he lost his son. I have probably noticed the abnormalities in your childhood and even your family.”
Soshiyang rarely thinks about the affairs of his former family, especially after finding Ullano, Veronica suddenly mentioned it, it seemed. Indeed.
"So I guess that there may be some deeper secrets hidden in your family. After the expedition, we should investigate the further history of your family. I think the problem is likely to lie with the two children of your ancestor named Kailo. ."
"Well, we need to do some research after the expedition. Maybe the key to uncovering the secret of the gray marrow lies here."
Then he smiled, although there was a smile on his face. It's still hazy, but it has relaxed a lot, and he praised:
"Thank you for taking so much trouble with my affairs. There are so many things here that sometimes even I can't figure them out."
< br>"Humph, we are husband and wife. Isn't it natural that I care about your affairs? And do you have some misunderstandings about my brain? What do you mean by multitasking, multi-threaded thinking, and photographic memory? It’s the same as drinking water.”
"Okay, it's my fault. It seems I can save more time in the future."
Seeing Suoshiyang's face still filled with sadness, Veronica hugged his neck distressedly and whispered. Whispered:
"Even if the entire galaxy betrays you, I will still be by your side, forever"
The smile on Soshiyang's face slowly faded, and he hugged Veroni stuck, but his thoughts drifted to the ancient holy sanctuary.
He had not noticed it before, but the two sudden sights today made him feel that the dagger of fate was getting closer and closer to his throat. The originally conceived plan might really start. Pushed, if something is really going to happen in the near future, before the turbulent waves of fate sweep over, he must find a way to send Veronica to the safest place, so that the empire, the royal court, and the gods are far away from her, No longer a threat to her.
Perhaps, this is the only thing he can do before he is still "him".
——————————
While Soshyan was away, Talos, who briefly replaced him in handling major affairs, received a unique report, Reports are coming from the surface of Angstrom about a dozen unique murders.
The Forge World is not peaceful. In fact, death occurs every moment. Assassinations that break out to snatch knowledge or compete for rank are quite common, but those deaths are all different.
All the cases happened on the same day, and the deceased were all new apprentices. Their skin was neatly peeled off, and a line of strange symbols was written in blood at the murder scene. The Forge World's security department has been pursuing the case for two days with no results. You must know that it is a mechanical city full of surveillance equipment. The surveillance network can even penetrate into the smallest drainage ditch in the city, but still no trace of the murderer can be caught. Only a very tricky camera captured an extremely blurry shadow, which showed that the thing was very fast.
So the sages suspected that it might be the remnants of the Red Pirates or even the demons they summoned. After realizing that the matter could not be solved, they decided to report the matter to Soshyan, so they arrived at the tower Lose's hand.
When he saw the scene, he immediately realized that it was the Eighth Legion's technique, and what the blood traced was not a symbol at all, but the language of the former Eighth Legion's home planet Nostram, except that it It's backwards and backwards. After correction, there is only one sentence -
Long live the King of the Night!
Realizing that it might be some provocateur from the Eighth Legion, Talos pressed the matter and quietly arrived in the city in a craft.
He has located the murderer.
Connecting all the murder scenes, it is actually a Nostram word -
grave.
So, as night fell over this side of the planet, Talos came to the surface and headed straight for the city's only cemetery.
The cemetery of the Mechanicus is completely different from the cemeteries elsewhere in the human race. There are no withered old trees, no croaking crows standing on the treetops, no gray and white mottled tombstones, and no holy elephants and icons that can be seen everywhere. flower garden.
Some are just micro-viewers that project the image of the deceased on the ground. At a glance, in the giant pyramid-shaped cemetery, there are densely packed green figures, as if it is a real netherworld, with mechanical little angels. Flying back and forth on a fixed route in the sky, the Omnisiah's hymn was playing.
In a sense, this tomb full of "ghosts" is more terrifying and terrifying than the cemetery of the state church, and the only thing it has in common with most cemeteries in the empire is that-
Only if it has certain Only those with high status are qualified to be buried. The vast majority of all living beings die in obscurity, disappear in obscurity, and are not worthy of being remembered.
Avoiding the surveillance of the tombkeeper, Talos came to a blind spot on the west side of the cemetery and walked nonchalantly among the flickering green ghosts.
Some of them even performed some of the habitual actions they had during their lifetime. It was midnight, and Talos, dressed in dark blue armor, seemed to be a jailer walking in hell, and his footsteps sounded like It's the beat of death.
He didn't have to search or hide at all, because the other party had no intention of avoiding him in the first place.
Finally, he stopped in a small semicircular square and looked at the figures sitting on the edge of the steps of the square among the green ghosts.
The man was wearing an ancient black armor. The claw-like black gauntlet held a skull with almost all the bones replaced by metal. Next to it was a pitch black sword and a bird's beak helmet.
Hearing Talos' footsteps, he let out a nervous laugh like a night owl.
"Haha, these things that despise the body have always been so boring. The body is obviously so beautiful and can bring so much pain"
As he spoke, he turned his head, and under the long black hair like weeds, a thin and pale face with deep sunken eyes and full of animality was revealed. The dark eyes were like the vicious gaze of a death star, and the mean lips opened and closed. Speak standard Nostramanian.
"You say so, my brother, Soul Hunter, Talos Valcolan."
Taros sneered and took off his helmet.
"Cassati Nuang, you are still alive, but you are the only one."
