Chapter 157: Paranoid Faith but Loyalty
Chapter 157: Paranoid Faith but Loyalty
At night, Lin Heng found the Tribunal transport plane parked at the airport, waiting for him.
After showing the Inquisitor's Rose, the other party allowed us to board the plane. As we gradually rose higher, the city of Notan appeared under the night sky.
The sparse lights were as faint as fireflies in the wilderness, so Lin Heng didn't even have to look for Street No. 7.
That area, like an incomplete map, was so eye-catching.
In such a brightly lit urban area, Street 7 is like an alien and has become a breeding ground for crime.
The whole world is like a machine that never stops. Although it is being updated and iterated, no one pays attention to the breakage of parts.
Lin Heng has done everything he can, and what the future situation will be like can only be known in the future.
A few hours later, Lin Heng arrived at the Revenge and Glory in space. As soon as he got off the transport plane, Belvis was already standing on the tarmac.
The other party didn't say anything either, just walked side by side.
"Here, your rose-knot waist badge."
Lin Heng took out the Judge's Rose Knot and handed it to the other party, preparing to return it to its original owner.
Belvis did not reach out his hand. He glanced at the rose knot and shook his head.
“Emotions can cloud your judgement in certain situations, so don’t let them stop you from doing the right thing.
Your behavior is actually the real heresy, while Governor Ao Qing is the benchmark for providing a large amount of taxes for the empire.
The other party has never rebelled, never colluded with any aliens, and has wholeheartedly provided supplies to the empire.
Your behavior is just a way of venting your anger.”
Lin Heng looked into the other person's eyes, wondering if all this was her doing, and if she wanted him to understand the court's difficulties.
But this seems a bit too conspiracy-theoretic, and it would take a lot of effort to create such a situation.
"Then why did you give me the rose?"
Belvis shrugged, raised the corner of his mouth and said:
"Everyone has a past. Besides, everyone makes mistakes."
Lin Heng nodded. He didn’t know whether he understood the other party’s thoughts, but this empire did need to be judged.
"By the way, what was it that made you so anxious to find me?"
Belvis signaled Lin Heng to follow, and then the two of them came to the command room. An electronic picture immediately attracted Lin Heng's attention.
"This is a picture of Forman, the second largest star in the Mandakhan Galaxy. Do you know what this place was like before?" asked Belvis.
Lin Heng shook his head, thinking that the Orc fleet had landed on Foreman Star? Otherwise, how could such a serious explosion have occurred?
“The Grey Knights went to investigate the situation, and they made contact with the Fire Covenant Space Marines stationed on the planet.
I realized that this was a targeted psychic burst, and concluded that it was directed at the most disgusting guy."
Lin Heng had the answer in his mind, but he couldn't say it. He always felt that he really couldn't get rid of the other party's pestering.
From the beginning to now, I feel like I'm living in the other person's shadow. No matter where I go, I'll find that giggling guy in some corner.
"A bastard who plays tricks on others for fun, huh?"
Belvis nodded.
"Which chapter is the Fire Covenant? How professional is its special forces? The organization of the Space Marines is also so messed up?" Lin Heng said.
Belvis' explanation for this is partly due to the Codex Astartes.
After the end of the Horus Heresy, the Primarch Roboute Guilliman believed that the Space Marine Legions had an army of hundreds of thousands.
It is a bit too dangerous for the Empire. After all, they all obey the Primarch's arrangements. Once the Primarch's behavior changes.
The armies under his command would follow the actions of their primarch, which was one of the reasons why the empire was unable to recover.
So Guilliman promulgated the Codex, splitting all legions into chapters of about a thousand people, with new names and new paint jobs.
The leaders of each station were recruiting new soldiers in their own worlds and fighting on their own, which meant that some battle groups were not even recorded.
Lin Heng felt more and more confused. He always felt that nothing was to his liking. This world was really rotten.
The emperor became more and more confused. Ever since he first talked about some trivial things in his dreams, he felt that they had never talked again.
And that traitorous beast said that the Emperor is now overwhelmed with tasks, and it seems that the situation in the Empire is really not good.
"Well...if, I mean if, the Emperor bestows his divine gift..."
Before he finished speaking, Belvis opened his eyes wide and reached for the explosive pistol at his waist with his right hand.
Lin Heng immediately realized that he had said something wrong again, but this judge seemed to be a little crazy.
Why would she want to kill someone when something went wrong? From this perspective, it seemed like the orcs were easier to communicate with than her.
"You'd better remember that the Emperor is the greatest human being, not a god!
Although the general public likes to call him the God-Emperor, the Emperor himself has stated that he is not a god.
Moreover, those civilians with low IQ and no ability to distinguish, although they called the Space Marines demigods, they were just modified genetic warriors.
They are still human!"
Belvis pointed the gun at Lin Heng. The black muzzle of the gun was as frightening as her tone.
Lin Heng originally thought that he had a pretty good relationship with the other party and that they could still discuss some topics.
But it turns out that the Inquisitors are extremely serious about the Empire and the Emperor and will not tolerate any inappropriate remarks.
Lin Heng had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender.
Belvis stared into Lin Heng's eyes, seeing fatigue in them, he sighed and put down the pistol.
"Will the Grey Knights ever come back?"
"They will have to investigate for a while. Things are going to change in the Storm Star Region."
Lin Heng nodded. Although he felt that what he was going to say next might cause a conflict, he still wanted to say it.
"Um...The Emperor...is a psyker, right?"
This time, Belvis was not overly excited, but the expression on his face was gloomy and uncertain.
"What do you want to say? The Grey Knights are unaffected by demons because of their unimaginable faith in the Emperor.
What, are you saying that the Emperor will be corrupted by those evil creatures in the Warp? "
Lin Heng wanted to slap this woman in the face. If only all the judges in the court were like this.
Damn it, it's no wonder Wagner said that people who seek death want to live when they meet the Inquisitor.
The train of thought of this group of people is really without any twists and turns.
Damn it, how can a guy who casually sentences hundreds of millions of people to death have any humanity?
"Nothing, just pretend I didn't ask."
Lin Heng just wanted to go back and have a rest, but this woman seemed to be still drunk.
He reached out and grabbed Lin Heng's collar, and pointed the grenade launcher directly at Lin Heng's head. The sunken eye sockets and bulging eyeballs were really enough to make one's hair stand on end.
Lin Heng was irritated by her several times, but he thought that if he really took action, this crazy person would definitely not give him a chance to explain.
So I had to be patient and ask if there was any such emperor appearing.
To his surprise, upon hearing this, Belvis actually spat on the ground. Such behavior was somewhat inconsistent with the other party.
“What kind of apparition is this? It’s obviously a group of dangerous psykers who are trying to use such unclean techniques and use the Emperor’s reputation to achieve certain goals.
I certainly cannot tolerate such people bringing bad reputation to the Emperor. The Emperor is the Lord of Mankind! Not the God of Mankind!"
Lin Heng looked at the Inquisitor, who was so angry that he was a little paranoid, and thought that he should not tell him the illusion of the Emperor speaking.
Otherwise, you will really get shot. If you run into such a group of paranoid and crazy people, the good or bad results will change all the time.
But if the traitors dream of inciting him to rebel in this way, they are really underestimating him.
No matter how bad the empire is, it's still better than your group of tentacle monsters.
When Belvis saw that Lin Heng did not resist, his excitement gradually subsided.
"Although you meet our expectations in most aspects, you are still lacking in character and faith in the Emperor.
You did a good job as the political commissar this time, even beyond my expectations, so while conducting the investigation.
I have transferred your service information to a new legion. I believe that their actions will allow you to advance your understanding of the Emperor to a new level."
Although Lin Heng didn't like the other party arranging his environment at will, but now as long as he left her, Lin Heng felt that anywhere was fine.
As expected, people still need to find partners with whom they can communicate. Compared with such high-ranking officials, Lin Heng would rather eat and live with the soldiers.
After all, they could at least accept some dirty jokes, unlike Judge Belvis in front of them, who looked like he had never been touched by a man in his life.
"Okay, when should I leave?"
“Three Terra days later, we took a spaceship to the Isnora Prime in the Isnora system.
The soldiers above are very much looking forward to the arrival of a political commissar.”
Although Belvis spoke very well, Lin Heng always felt that the other party was lying to him.
So he asked:
"Astra Militarum?"
"Yes, but they have their own regiment name - the Death Korps of Krieg."
...
Caroline traveled for fourteen days and finally arrived at the spaceship landing site as night fell.
There were only a dozen students waiting here, and after half a day, the number only increased to about thirty.
Although Caroline believed that there must be many people who survived, the plane leaving the ground meant that they had no hope either.
Maybe the next time the spacecraft carrying trainees arrives, the newcomers will meet this batch of mutineers.
She encountered more than a dozen students who had betrayed her from different periods, and Caroline killed them all without exception.
There is only one reason, for the Emperor.
This made her firm in her reasoning, and there was only one possibility: the emperor had appeared.
