Chapter 2040: Begin to close the net (with additional update plan for May Day)


In the direction of the Bloody Skull Galaxy, Corsaro Khan also opened up the situation after receiving a series of reinforcements. The troops and fleets he led have occupied the mineral worlds on the edge of the two galaxies. This galaxy can be said to be the lifeblood of Huron. Son, it is definitely a huge blow to the Red Pirates.

But the smoother the battle reports from all parties, the more uneasy Soshiyang felt. He knew very well that Huron's main force still existed, and the other party must be shrinking its strength if it gave up territory so easily.

Is Huron preparing to launch a major decisive battle?

His capital and confidence only come from Blackstone Fortress?

Or are there any new variables in the middle?

Or is there a new disruptor?

Soshyan is now very eager to obtain the accurate information provided by Occam, but the other party seems to have disappeared, which makes him a little worried and has some doubts.

Did this Alpha rebel again?

If Occam rebels, the consequences will be devastating. He has too much key intelligence about Soshyan and the Eleventh Legion.

Soshyan is not a suspicious person, but it is obvious that Huron is planning something at the moment. It is difficult for him not to have some anxiety. Kayon is not here now, and Veronica has some inconveniences after all. .

Sometimes things seem to be arranged secretly. Just when Soshyan was worried about the lack of news from Occam for a long time, Sorge suddenly brought Occam's message.

It turns out that this Alpha was sent by Huron to Galmyk, one of the headquarters of the Word Bearers. Huron did not expect to be able to form an alliance with the Word Bearers, but just hoped that the other party could temporarily put aside their old grudges and send troops to fight against him. The Empire attacked. Apparently Occam's "excellent performance" during the previous period gave Huron some other expectations for him.

But the road to Galmyk was not smooth. Occam was intercepted by a mysterious force halfway, and he struggled with the opponent for a long time before he was able to escape. Occam speculated through various analyzes and clues It is very likely that they killed Randall's group, because now they are second only to Soshyan and most hope that Huron will be destroyed. Only in this way can they reap the dividends.

After arriving in Galmyk, Occam was placed under house arrest by the Word Bearers for a period of time. As a Word Bearer, he knew these "blood relatives" of his very well, and he had a lot of trouble. This was a common problem among most of them, so they didn't worry about anything. Instead, they took the opportunity to connect with some Word Bearers in Galmyk during the house arrest and learned some inside stories.

The Word Bearers detained him not because of hatred or anything, but because the person in charge of Galmyk was not there. The remaining people were unable to make up their mind when faced with such a big matter. Every leader They have their own ideas. Some people think this is an opportunity to plunder the empire. Some people think that they should wait until Huron is defeated and then divide the red pirate legacy. Some people think that if the red pirates are defeated, then the empire will be the next target. It was probably Garmyk. No matter what happened in the past, at least Huron was able to attract most of the Empire's firepower in the Maelstrom, so he advocated assisting the Red Corsairs.

The three parties argued endlessly, and no one could completely overwhelm the other, so Occam, the "messenger", was temporarily placed under house arrest.

But when he was released in the end, the Word Bearers had nothing to say about him, but the condition of Garmek was enough to reassure Huron. Occam mentioned in the message that Huron was Prepare to concentrate all forces, including the forces used by New Badab to defend against the Word Bearers. It is obvious that the other party is preparing for a decisive battle. However, why Huron has such confidence, Occam still does not know, because Huron Lun immediately asked him to investigate the Eldar's actions again.

This is the first thing Occam wants to remind Soshyan. Huron seems to have known that there are Eldar activities in the Maelstrom and is very wary of it. He does not know who revealed it to Huron news, but that man must have known a lot.

The second thing is that, according to Occam's analysis, although most Word Bearers should be leaning towards the second option, a small number of warbands may launch attacks and plunders on the empire on their own. , let Soshyan pay more attention to the direction of Endymion. There may be some Word Bearers warbands launching attacks on the imperial world and the expeditionary force's logistics and transportation center in the near future. The content of the message was not much, but it was enough to reassure Soshyan. At least Occam did not rebel. At least he knew that Huron was indeed preparing for a decisive battle. He also believed that Occam would give him the reason why Huron did this.

As for the variables on the Word Bearers side, Soshyan made some adjustments to the escort fleet and patrol fleet, but now Endymion is no longer a key battle zone. He has no extra Space Marines to arrange there, so he can only rely on a large number of Mortal troops were on alert to reduce losses as much as possible.

Sorge brings not only news about Occam, but also another bad news.

The follower of the Inquisitor who was "loyal" to Samuel before actually slipped away from the Grief Galaxy. According to the killers sent by Sorge, the man turned out to be a psyker. She always seemed to be able to run away without warning when being tracked by both the Inquisition and Sorge, and finally hid on a passenger ship. However, Sorge's killers found that she had not taken her with them in a residence where she was hiding. The handwriting of the notes she left was very illegible. After identification, the general meaning was that she had in her hand the image recorded by the Inquisitor's mechanical prosthetic eye before his death. At this time, the Inquisitor gave himself an insurance, and the mechanical prosthetic eye recorded his death at the same time. The information will be transmitted to the follower, but the follower's mental state is not very good. The notes always keep narrating as if someone is whispering in her ear.

Logically speaking, she should hand these over to the people in the Tribunal, but she doesn’t seem to trust those people.

Now following the route, she has probably gone to the Maelstrom Tribunal branch of Serenity II.

Based on a series of clues, Sorge deduced that this servant had probably been controlled by those fallen angels and had become an unknowing pawn. Once in the Serenity Galaxy, the news would definitely be artificially spread to the Dark Angels. In order to prevent the situation from expanding, the Dark Angels Troops will definitely be sent to silence them.

And that entourage was a bait, attracting the Tribunal and the Dark Angels together again. It was obvious what the Fallen Angels were planning.

They do not expect to be able to destroy the Dark Angel, but they want the other party to die in public opinion. This is a tactic that cannot kill you but disgusts you to death.

I have to say that Soshyan admires the Fallen Angels and the gang, and Azrael didn’t tell him about it. He obviously didn’t intend to “trouble” the expeditionary force, but since he only sent Sa Muir, maybe they didn't realize the real purpose of this trap.

Soshiyan then contacted Azrael, told the situation, and worked out a "play it off" plan with the Supreme Master of the Dark Angels.

The first step of the plan is to control the follower, which can only rely on Sorge's power.

There will be additional updates every day for four days from April 30-5-3! I hope everyone will vote for it! ! ! !
