Chapter 1987 The insistent Tribunal


Chapter 1987 The Inquisition that Holds Hard

The Great Trial Torquemada Ketiz is still the most conspicuous among the many inquisitors. As far as Soshyan knows, the other party is coming There have been very frequent activities after the Maelstrom. Since Marcus has more official support, Torquemada's activities are basically limited to his own team or in conjunction with individual Inquisitors.

As for what he is doing, Soshyan is not very sure. After all, it is difficult enough to track an inquisitor, and Occam is even more powerless now that he is still with the Red Pirates. He just knows that this They constantly shuttled between various war zones and battlefields, and occasionally entered the front lines. They seemed to be looking for something, but they would also capture some people from time to time.

In addition, although the Red Hunter participated in the battle against the Red Pirates, almost a small group of warriors in the war group joined Torquemada's team to assist him in his activities.

In this tragic galaxy incident, Torquemada was also the first inquisitor to rush to the scene and made serious heresy accusations against Samuel.

It was also through this incident that he seemed to suddenly become the opinion leader of the judges in the Maelstrom area. On the contrary, because Marcus was closer to Soshyan, he became less trustworthy in the eyes of the judges. people.

It can be seen from the position at the scene that most of the inquisitors are gathered around Torquemada. There are only two or three people around Marcus, and there are a few more independent inquisitors standing alone. in one's own position.

In fact, the moment he walked in, Soshyan had already guessed that the judges themselves had already had a quarrel before he came.

"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

"The supreme lord commander Soshiyang is busy with military affairs and has many things to do. We can understand that after all, the expedition involves many things."

Torquemada Ketiz was the first to speak, and seemed very "caring" and "understanding", but Soshyan knew who the other person was.

A person who can suddenly smash his mentor's head with a hammer will never have anything to do with gentleness.

“So I think you should focus more on the front line and the military, and leave other non-essential affairs and work to more professional people.”

Soshiyang Weiwei A smile.

"Grand Inquisitor Torquemada, just tell me if you have anything to say."

"As for what happened in the Grief Galaxy, I hope you will not interfere. This is the scope of the Inquisition's responsibilities."

Soshiyang spread his hands after hearing this.

“I don’t understand what you are saying. I seem to have done nothing, right? And since the beginning of the expedition, I have never interfered with the activities of the Tribunal. You are free to come and go, and I am also with you. The frontline commanders have said that they will cooperate with the actions of the Tribunal as much as possible, and you have received a lot of care on the battlefield, right?"

A look on the ferocious face of Torquemada Ketiz? Staring at Soshyan with big eyes, he then took a step forward.

"Are you going to pretend to be confused? Samuel of the Dark Angels is suspected of being a heretic, but you have been protecting them, and several summons from the Inquisition have been dismissed with the excuse that they are performing tasks. , but in fact they didn’t perform the mission at all, they were always in your fleet!”

"Isn't this matter still under investigation? There has been a conclusion?"

"It is true that there is no conclusion yet, but he has the obligation to cooperate with our investigation. The request of the trial court cannot be rejected, including ours "

"Oh, that's it."

Soshiyang nodded in realization, and then changed the subject.

“So now, Grand Inquisitor Torquemada Ketiz, are you speaking on behalf of the entire Inquisition?”

Torquemada Ketiz narrowed his eyes slightly. He did not jump into Soshyan's language trap. In fact, if anyone dared to play word games with him, he would have passed by with a hammer.

Unfortunately, the other party is the supreme commander of the expeditionary force, a space warrior, and has a huge force. Although the Inquisition has the power to arrest and execute people of any class and status in the empire, even Space Marines, the person in front of them is still too troublesome. Without the signal from the highest level of Terra, as long as he has this intention, I am afraid that the people around him will The judges will be the first to judge him.

This is the most unique and troublesome thing about the Inquisition. Since there is no actual power structure, he can only obtain the support of most Inquisitors through promises, solicitations and various exchanges of benefits. , but he couldn't order them.

There is also the existence of Marcus, the "Soshyan follower". Without absolute persuasion, he really can't beat Soshyan.

"I only speak on behalf of the emperor and the throne."

So he chose a gentler tone, but with a tougher attitude, and Soshyan nodded immediately.

"Then so do I."

"You must protect Samuel and the Dark Angel?"

"What does it mean to protect? Captain Samuel, as a The young Astartes, under the extremely unfavorable circumstances of the Capua War when the former captain was killed, took up the position of Fireline and took over the command. He led the Ravenwing Company to destroy a corrupted Reaver-class Titan and annihilated the Word Bearers. A traitor, and later during the Fourth Quadrant Rebellion, he went deep into the area and beheaded the traitor leader, stabilizing the situation in the Sun Star Territory. During the three hundred years of his service, he hunted countless traitors, wizards, demons, and aliens. Such an outstanding figure Captain Start, will he be labeled as a heretic and traitor just by saying a few words? Then who else in the empire can escape trial? Or, furthermore, how many of you here dare to say that you are better than Captain Samuel? For loyalty?”

"The merits of the past cannot be offset by the faults of the present. Huron was once a hero of the empire in the past, but this did not prevent him from eventually becoming a rebel. Samuel and his company were on the scene at the time. What were they going to do? What happened? The Inquisition has not been given an explanation. Even now, we have sent a request to you, hoping that Samuel can attend this meeting, but he still did not show up. Is it because you did not convey it or he was unwilling to come? ? Don’t dare to come?”

“Captain Samuel is busy with military affairs, and he has already explained that they tracked the traitor there, and then the traitor bombarded the nest with phosphorus weapons.”

"How did Judge Inar die?"

"Isn't this something you should investigate? Why are you asking me? Then I will only tell you that it was those red pirates The traitor killed the inquisitor."

"But when Inquisitor Inar died, the traitors should have fled."

Soshyan chuckled.

“What does this mean? Maybe there are other heretics, or someone you don’t know.”

“Then Commander-in-Chief Soshyan, you know and Samuel Who are they fighting?"

"The Red Pirate Traitor"

"No."

Torquemada Ketiz shook his head meaningfully.

“In the Formosa sector, there was once a group of heretical traitors who had endangered the order of the empire for decades. My mentor had fought against them. According to the archives, they were a group of twisted chaotic stars. The warrior wears black armor, but does not carry the symbol of the Black Legion. Commander Soshyan, you are an Astartes. Do you know that in addition to the Black Legion, are there any other Chaos heretics who wear black armor? "

Soshiyang replied calmly:

"There are also many independent Chaos war gangs who also wear black armor."

"Then the old ones. Where is the First Army?”
