Chapter 356 Return
What is the Crone's Sword?
The Sword of the Crone is said to be Moiraine Haig, the Crone God of the Eldar who controls the soul and destiny. He asked the Eldar God of War Bloodhand Kane to cut off five of his fingers, and then Val, the Eldar God of Craftsman, reused these five fingers. A long sword made.
Fu Qinghai has not read all the original novels of the Death Army, but he knows the general story line: awakening Robert Guilliman, the regent of Sleeping Beauty, is just a part of the process in which Evrené leads the various Eldar subordinates to develop and cause trouble. Small interlude - strengthen the human empire, prepare for the re-rise of the Eldar, and create a powerful ally to attract the firepower of Chaos.
And collect five old woman's swords.
This is the real main mission.
So, Ephreni and her Death Army traveled half of the galaxy, experienced hardships and tribulations, and faced annihilation several times... Why do they have to collect all five old woman's swords?
Because gathering the five Crone's Swords can resurrect the Eldar Death God Aenead, and Aenead, the Eldar Death God, is said to be able to compete with Slaanesh, the lifelong enemy of all Eldar.
When it comes to this, Fu Qinghai doesn't really understand.
It is said that the most powerful god of the Spirit Clan, shouldn’t it be Asu Yan, the main god of the Spirit Clan? The great subspace explosion when Slaanesh was born destroyed many Eldar gods, including Asuryan. Asuryan was no match for Shalish. Why was Aenead, the Eldar Death God? Can you beat Slaanesh?
Look at the other Eldar gods: The Eldar God of War, Khaine Bloodhand, is a complete imitation of Khorne, and is used as a stepping stone by the Ultramarines every day to kill people. Aisha, the Eldar goddess of life, was imprisoned by Nurgle and became a loving concubine. Every time Nurgle invented a new virus, he would feed it to Aisha to test the effect.
Aenead is probably on the same level as the two of them.
Even the other Death God in the Warhammer 40K universe, the Star God, the Nightbringer, and Azagorod, are much more famous than the little-known Eldar Death God Aenead.
The Night Holder is not a subspace existence, but a physical entity. However, because he has caused so many crimes, the collective memory of the "God of Death" by all intelligent races in the galaxy is the image of "cloak + sickle", which is the Night Holder. the image of the author himself. The Night Holder is the strongest star god recognized by the King of Silence himself.
However, looking at the reaction from Slaanesh, it seems that Aenead, the Eldar Death God, is quite wary of him. He has repeatedly sent his subordinates to challenge the most powerful demon - Shalasi Demon Calamity, breaking through the barrier of reality and coming to deal with Inied. Freni and her army of Death.
Regardless of whether Aeneid can compete with Slaanesh, in short, according to the original novel, Ephrene's plan to collect five Crone's Swords is almost destined to fail, because it is said that the last Crone's Sword is hidden in Slaanesh. In the palace of Nie... to let the Eldar steal things from the divine realm of Slaanesh, that is simply... Anyway, there are many comments to describe this situation.
Another way to resurrect the Eldar God of Death: to kill all the Eldar is obviously not a good idea.
At this point in time, the Eldar God of Death has not yet awakened, and it is not known whether Evereni has been born. The Eldar obviously have not realized the true role of the Old Woman's Sword, and only regard it as a powerful ancient relic weapon.
…………
The battle is over.
The Kroot were defeated without any suspense.
Although the Kroot were numerous in number, they were no match for the Space Marines and the Wild Eldar. Fu Qinghai was mainly worried that after these alien birdmen fled, they would all hide in the equatorial jungle, so he arranged for Saroyan Skar in advance. Sen led the Thunderwolf Cavalry and two Imperial Guards to surround the Eldar temple.
But many Kroot people still ran away.
Greenskin spores plus Kroot remnants.
In the future, the security war will be fought in the hive city world.
The human troops are cleaning the battlefield. According to the temporary agreement between Fu Qinghai and Salamander Uslan, the Savage Eldar have the right to take away the bodies of the dead Eldar and the corresponding weapons and equipment.
This temple of spirit bones can only stay here.
The space naval battle is also over.
According to the report of acting captain Eugene Eleanor, the combined fleet of battleships + cruisers + frigates surrounded the thick-skinned war ball ship and bombarded it indiscriminately before it finally ran out of the Karnak system. , paralyzing its power system, the war ball ship is hovering somewhere in the void at this moment.
The enemy ship has been incapacitated, and Eugene asks whether to send the Iron Buddha Terminator to join the gang.
Fu Qinghai replied to think about it again.
The main Kroot people are very poor and have little oil and water. Fighting gang wars may lead to some unnecessary casualties. The capture of an Underworld-class heavy cruiser has already made money.
The war ball ship and the Spirit Bone Temple were the only things that could be called captured in this battle. They were tasteless to eat and a pity to abandon. They were somewhat worthless.
Finally, Fu Qinghai said to Eugene:
"Let the Astropath try to contact the Rogue Trader family in the Extreme Star Territory. What is that woman's name? Yolanda Atela. They are currently running the trade route from Phaeton to the Five Hundred Worlds. Ask them if they are interested. deal with."
…
Equatorial Jungle, Webway Exit.
The Space Marines and Imperial Guards stood aside to supervise. The Dinosaur Cavalry of the Savage Eldar were queuing up to enter the Webway. After they all passed, the Space Marines would set out to plant bombs to completely destroy the exit of the Webway.
There are large and small gates in the webway. The large ones can accommodate fleets passing through. The smaller ones are similar to the current one and can only accommodate cavalry. The threat was actually not very great, but after careful consideration, Fu Qinghai decided to blow up the webway gate.
"Khan, if we fight against the foreign religious sect..."
Qiao Shida leaned next to Fu Qinghai and whispered.
The Order of Foreigners is the Ordo Xenos.
Will the Ordo Xenos know about the Iron Buddha Chapter's cooperation with the Eldar? Fu Qinghai was actually not sure.
Fu Qinghai turned his head and glanced at the two Imperial Guard officers standing not far away, Li Hanxing and Tariha. Both of them were riding on horseback, meticulously supervising the evacuation of the Eldar.
He turned his head and whispered:
"Both of them have promised me that they will absolutely keep the secret secret and will not publicize it to the outside world, but I am not sure how much weight this guarantee carries. We can't kill people and silence them."
"Of course we can kill people and silence them."
Qiao Shida said enthusiastically:
"Anyway, these spirit races have no use value anymore, why not just take advantage of this opportunity to kill them all..."
The Moon Wolf Warrior raised his fingers and hooked them on his neck.
Bad idea, too bad.
Fu Qinghai shook his head.
Looking at the entire Warhammer 40K universe, the only force that may form a long-term alliance with the Human Empire is probably the White Bean Sprout. The Ark Eldar and the Human Empire have a common enemy - Chaos, and there is almost no conflict of interest, territorial or otherwise.
If you want to form an alliance, you must first be able to communicate.
Some forces have no possibility of communication and negotiation at all. For example, the Tyranids and the Orcs are similar. They fight when they come up and don't talk to you at all.
Among these forces that can communicate, chaos is the enemy of all intelligent life and absolutely cannot form an alliance. Other alien forces have a natural need to expand their living space: the Tau Empire's several dome expansions, the promotion of the Greater Good, the Necron's gradual awakening, and their desire to return to their dominance of the galaxy...
Only the Ark Spirit Clan has a very simple appeal——
They hate Chaos with all their heart, and they just want to live.
The cavalry of the Wild Eldar Tribe were about to enter the webway. At this time, the howling banshee Salamander strolled over, raised her head and looked at Fu Qinghai, and said softly:
"Qingshan, I want to talk to you alone."
"This way."
Fu Qinghai pointed in a direction.
If you want to avoid being heard by Lyman's ears, you have to stand far enough away.
The two walked over.
When they came to a secluded place, the two stopped and stood face to face. Salamander raised his head and glanced at Fu Qinghai in front of him, then lowered his gaze and said softly:
"Thank you, Qingshan, you helped me again."
Fu Qinghai smiled:
"You're welcome. We have the same goal. There is no conflict of interest. It is normal to work together."
"No, you don't have to say that."
The spirit girl shook her head gently:
"I can speak Gothic. I have come into contact with many humans. I know that you are different from them. They all have a natural hatred for other races... I, I don't know how to describe it, anyway, you are different."
Fu Qinghai thought for a while and said:
"In my eyes, you are different from other Eldar."
"Oh? What's different?"
Sarah Mander was immediately interested.
His eyebrows were raised, and his almond-shaped eyes blinked.
"Hmm..." Fu Qinghai thought for a while, "You are not so arrogant, and you are not so... sentimental? Anyway, I feel that you are very neat and tidy when fighting. In addition, you are very beautiful, even by human standards of beauty. .”
Fu Qinghai picked some nice things to say.
"Really."
Salamander smiled and narrowed his eyes:
"You're not bad looking either."
She was actually a little shy in her heart: before she met Qingshan, she actually regarded humans as inferior monkeys - this was the general consensus among the Eldar people, and Salamander was often around her father and was very knowledgeable, especially for This group of monkeys have a strange emotion of mourning their misfortune and being angry at them.
As for sentimentality? If we look at the standards of other races, every Eldar is very sentimental, and Salamander is no exception. But when she wears the banshee mask, her kind and emotional side will be suppressed. This is determined by her cultivation path. of.
"so……"
Salamander took courage and asked:
"We're friends, right?"
"Oh no, we are not friends..."
Fu Qinghai smiled and waved his hand.
Salamander was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes dimmed:
"Why, I thought..."
"We are comrades in arms."
Fu Qinghai said seriously:
"We fight side by side, cooperate tacitly, and save each other. How can we describe it as friends? Our relationship is better than friends. What do you think, Sarah?"
Salamander smiled again:
"I think you're right."
The two chatted for a few more words.
Salamander told Fu Qinghai that he did not belong to the wild elves in Separil, but was ordered to save them because the prophecy showed that this wild elves would be threatened by the Necrons in the future, so To evacuate them.
Fu Qinghai told Salamander that he was now the leader of the Iron Buddha Chapter, stationed in the Marquez King District in the Obscure Star Region. This time he came to the planet Kelnak III to solve the problem. Alien and Chaos invasion issues.
Finally, Salamander said seriously:
"Qingshan, on behalf of Uswe Arkworld, I promise you: you will always be Uswe Arkworld's friend."
Fu Qinghai smiled and agreed.
There are large and small Arkworlds, strong and weak ones, but the smallest Arkworlds are comparable to the space fortresses of the human empire. Uthwe, Beltan, and Iyanden are all very powerful Arkworlds - because of Fu Qinghai Heard their names.
One more powerful ally and potential backer.
not bad.
Fu Qinghai also warned Salamander:
"That old woman's sword must be preserved."
"Don't worry, this is a spiritual artifact. I know its value better than you. I will definitely keep it well."
Salamander said with a smile.
Fu Qinghai smiled slightly, thinking that you probably don’t know as much as I do. When the Death Army comes out in the future, there will be a Death Chosen named "Efreni" who will come to you to ask for this weapon. Sword.
After chatting, Salamander was about to leave, and the two waved goodbye.
The Milky Way is vast, I don’t know when we will see each other again, and I feel a little emotional in my heart.
Salamander thought to himself: Fortunately, Qingshan is a space warrior and not an ordinary human. Otherwise, the next time they meet again, Qingshan may have died of old age.
Fu Qinghai looked at Salamander's leaving back, suddenly thought of something, and called her out:
"Sarah!"
"Well, what's wrong, Qingshan?"
The spirit girl turned around and asked doubtfully.
"Your full name is Salamander Uslan."
Fu Qinghai asked tentatively:
"What is your relationship with Edrad Uslan?"
Fu Qinghai didn't know if the surnames of the Spirit Tribe were as common and repetitive as the previous life on Earth. What if "Uslan" was a big surname, like "Zhao Qiansun Li" and "Smith Johnson"? It suddenly occurred to him So I asked this casually.
Salamander was stunned when he heard this:
"Do you still know my father?"
Fu Qinghai was also stunned:
Damn it, the old prophet’s daughter! ?
…
As the most famous man in the Ark Eldar clan, Fu Qinghai has certainly heard of Edrad Uslan. This magician has been active from the Horus Heresy to the Thirteenth Black Crusade. He has a very long lifespan. It is said that he knew the emperor in his early years and had a good relationship with him.
Humans are disgusted with the Eldar because there are many troublemakers like Eldrad among them, who like to do things that harm the interests of other races and benefit the interests of the Eldar. This is a human perspective. In the eyes of the Eldar, the old prophet is probably Big hero... right?
Many times, the Ark Eldar really want to help humans, not for friendship, but to use human hands to fight Chaos. However, their information acquisition model relies on prophecy, which often seems abrupt and unreliable.
Only those with extraordinary talents in the human group can gain the ability to predict, such as angels, bat kings and soul hunters, and of course the emperor. But for the Ark Eldar, prophets are a path, just like the Howling Woman. Like demons, this is a cultivation school. They can artificially cultivate and create prophets.
On the eve of the outbreak of the Horus Heresy, Eldrad learned through prophecies that the Warmaster had fallen into Chaos, and wanted to alert the Empire, so he sent a Nether Lord to inform Fulgrim. The results were astonishing. And you know... Lord Netherworld and Kane's incarnation were beaten to the ground by the Phoenix Lord on the spot. After that, he disguised himself and went through all the trouble to help the Fire Dragon Lord Volcan successfully return to Terra, also in order to strengthen the human empire. military strength.
Looking at this operation alone, he can be regarded as an old friend of mankind, but his subsequent attempt to resurrect the Eldar Death God Aenead in advance, even at the expense of causing the Star Torch to be extinguished, reflected his true nature - for The end justifies the means.
All in all, he is a complex person.
Fu Qinghai did not expect that he would be involved with such a well-known plot character. He had never heard that the old prophet had a daughter... If he knew that it was the Endless Trazin who had the idea of the Separil Wild Spirit Tribe. , I’m afraid I will be glad that I once again passed by a notorious and well-known drama character.
…………
The Eldar leave and the Webway blows up.
At the celebration banquet in the hive city, the Planetary Governor begged Qingshan Khan, hoping that his troops could stay on the planet Karnak III for a longer period of time to assist the local planetary defense forces in eradicating Ork derivatives and Kroot. Human remnant.
But Fu Qinghai always kept in mind that he was about to start a new reincarnation in three months, so he didn't want to waste time here - it was a jungle war and a security war, which would be endless. I still have to meet the new Khan-class Titan.
Therefore, in his itinerary plan, he only waited until Yolanda Atera led the Rogue Trader fleet to arrive in the Karnak system, and then he would leave here and return to the Phaeton Forge World.
Faced with this arrangement, the Planetary Governor was very helpless, but he had no choice. The banquet continued, getting rid of the threats of aliens and chaos. The noble men and women at the top of the tower, who had been in constant panic, returned to their luxurious and wild life. No one dared to disturb the space warriors, but the two men, Li Hanxing and Tariha, An Imperial Guard officer was surrounded by them.
Li Hanxing's severely burned face and Tariha's strong body odor were no longer a problem in the eyes of the nobles. Perhaps the Emperor's Children would like this kind of feasting occasion where they sing praises and praises, but the three Space Marine officers, Joestar, Kalamanda and Satfalan, all behaved very indifferently to this, and the nobles of the hive city touched them. With no hope, he could only come to two officers of the Imperial Guard and flatter him to the fullest.
Fu Qinghai pulled out Tariha, whose face was flushed, from the crowd, pulled him to a quiet corner, and asked:
"Have you finished what I asked you to do?"
"It's been done a long time ago, Chapter Leader!"
The prairie man nodded while holding the wine glass:
"You can go to the Satellite City Outpost and see for yourself."
"very good."
Fu Qinghai nodded with satisfaction.
He still remembered what the original purpose was when he personally led the team to the planet Kelnak III.
Planet Karnak III is not a developed hive world, there is not much money to be made, and now is not the time for major events in the plot line to occur, so there are no assimilation points to earn.
He came here to establish prestige for the war group.
Since in order to expand your reputation, you need some sense of ritual. Fu Qinghai specifically ordered Tariha to cut off the heads of all enemy corpses, whether Orcs, Chaos warbands or Kroots, and pile them into Jingguan, a satellite city that had become a dead city. In the outpost, for those who come later to visit.
It is not only a display of martial arts, but also a tribute to the souls of the dead.
Cutting off human heads to build a temple may be unimaginable to model war groups such as the Ultramarines and Imperial Fists. It is too barbaric and is completely a feudal world behavior.
But White Scars has always had such a tradition - the walls of Quanzhou Monastery are inlaid with the skulls of many enemies, and they even have to be plated with silver for long-term preservation.
Attila Barbarian Cavalry, as the White Scar in the Imperial Guard, handles this kind of thing very smoothly, without any psychological burden, the heads are cut cleanly, and the Jingguan is built with care.
Li Hanxing watched Ta Riha and Fu Qinghai hiding aside and whispering, and couldn't help but want to come over and participate in the conversation.
The young company commander of the Death Cavalry was holding a wine glass in one hand and a cane in the other. A large chunk of muscle had been chewed off his thigh by the Kroot. It had been amputated and replaced with a mechanical prosthetic leg. He is in the adaptation stage, has some rejection reactions, and is not very agile, so he needs a cane.
Li Hanxing used his arms to push away the noble men and women surrounding him, and limped towards Fu Qinghai. Just as Tariha finished chatting with Fu Qinghai, he happily walked towards the wine table, seemingly winning the battle. At the praise of the group leader, the dark-faced man stood up with his chest raised and his face glowing red, with joy written all over his face.
"grown ups."
Li Hanxing came over and said.
Fu Qinghai raised his wine glass and clinked it with him:
"According to White Scar custom, you can call me 'Khan'."
"Khan."
Li Hanxing immediately changed his tune:
"I have something to say to you."
"What's up?"
"I am a reincarnation."
"oh."
Fu Qinghai nodded.
Li Hanxing looked at Fu Qinghai's face with a calm expression and no expression of surprise at all, so he asked:
"You already knew this?"
"It's obvious, isn't it?"
Fu Qinghai took a sip of wine:
"Your name, your behavior, and the way you talk are not so Krieger. Just like you can recognize my identity, we have not deliberately concealed it."
Fu Qinghai did not suspect that Li Hanxing did not trust him because he was a reincarnator. He still arranged combat missions for him in a business-like manner. Now was not a major plot event, but a gap between reincarnations. Even if a reincarnator had any intentions, he should not be there. Be a monster during this time - because there are no assimilation points to earn.
Li Hanxing was able to sneak into the cavalry company commander of the Death Corps, and he was not a stupid person. Fu Qinghai pretended that he didn't recognize him and gave him the command as he should.
Li Hanxing nodded in agreement and said:
"Indeed, I didn't deliberately imitate a Krieg, but I was really born there, my first reincarnation life, a native Krieg, haha."
After speaking, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"Um."
Fu Qinghai patted him on the shoulder:
"Work hard and work hard, and it is not impossible to become the leader of the Death Corps as soon as possible, or even the marshal."
Fu Qinghai's words were purely polite.
Everyone knows that with the death rate of the Krieg Death Corps, its unique combat methods and combat concepts, if you want to become a regiment leader or even a marshal, I am afraid that it is not just as simple as being able to fight, but also having extraordinary luck. Just fine.
Li Hanxing's first reincarnation life may soon become a thing of the past.
Li Hanxing hesitated for a while.
Finally, he said what he was thinking:
"Do you have a club? I want to join your club."
Fu Qinghai said calmly:
"My club is not short of people for the time being. You can add a friend first and we will see about it later."
What level would a Krieg Death Trooper be placed in other reincarnation worlds? It's definitely not a cannon fodder, but it's definitely not an elite force. THEM is a small society, with Fu Qinghai's personal relationship as the link, and it takes a high-end boutique route. A Krieg reincarnation who may be killed one day needs to be re-examined, whether from the perspective of strength or emotion.
"Ok, I see."
Li Hanxing was not discouraged even after being rejected. He just nodded to express his understanding and then reported his reincarnation number.
"Welcome, from the five hundred worlds of Ultramar, the direct territory of the Regent, the Rogue Trader across the star field, the brave and fearless fleet commander, Ms. Yolanda Atera!"
At this time, a servant sang and shouted loudly.
Oh, thank God, it's finally here.
Fu Qinghai thought to himself.
He has been waiting for her for almost half a month.
Yolanda Atela was still dressed as a noble lady in a gorgeous yet sophisticated manner. The trendy design style from the Five Hundred Worlds opened the eyes of the nobles of Kelnak Planet 3, and they gathered around her. Try to strike up a conversation with her.
However, she ignored these enthusiastic men and women. Instead, she raised her neck and looked around in the banquet hall. She soon saw Fu Qinghai in the corner. The stalwart figure of the Space Marine was very conspicuous. Yolanda Atera walked quickly. He came up and stood in front of Fu Qinghai, slightly bent his knees and lifted his skirt, performed the standard etiquette of a noble lady, then raised his head and said with a smile:
"Congratulations Khan on another victory. How can I help you? We are duty-bound."
"A temple of spirit bones, a war ball ship."
Fu Qinghai asked with a smile:
"Are you interested?"
"Ah, of course, of course."
The Rogue Trader had a look of surprise on his face and kept nodding.
"You might as well sign a contract with me and become the military contractor of the Iron Buddha Chapter, specifically responsible for handling the residual value after the battle."
Fu Qinghai suggested.
"That's what we mean, my lord."
Yolanda agreed.
Fu Qinghai still remembers that he captured two Blood Ax Clan orc warships. They were not worth much and were difficult to dispose of, and they were finally sold to Yolanda's Rogue Trader fleet.
Spiritual bones are a rare material. Although Phaeton is useless, if you put it in the trading market, some people may like it. However, this kind of illegal trade involving the sale of alien cultural relics and commodities is generally referred to as: faceless trade. Anyone involved in any capacity, whether buyer, seller, supplier or broker, is guilty of a crime punishable by death or worse.
Fu Qinghai can understand the original intention of the Alien Tribunal to ban the sale of alien creations. Many alien creations are indeed very dangerous, or they are some kind of spy devices or carry alien viruses. Even seemingly safe and harmless things like spiritual bones can be collected and worn. Wraith bones may incur hatred and attacks from the Eldar.
But the most indispensable thing in the human empire is the nobles who are looking for some outrageous entertainment because their lives are too boring. If there is a demand, there will be a market. If they want to commit suicide, Fu Qinghai cannot stop them. If he doesn't sell them, others will sell them. , it is better to let this money be earned by the Iron Buddha Chapter, and these boring nobles have done their part to fight against the alien cause.
The Rogue Trader immediately ordered his men to start preparing to excavate and relocate the entire Spirit Bone Temple. Although this temple is located in the equatorial jungle of the planet Karnak III, neither Fu Qinghai nor Yolanda had any intention of interfering with the planetary governor. The Planetary Governor is also very sensible and does not dare to block it at all. After all, he did not know the existence of the Eldar Temple before, so he just tried his best to cooperate.
After dealing with matters on the surface, Fu Qinghai and Yolanda returned to space orbit together. The fleet sailed to the middle of the galaxy, with a spherical battleship hovering in the void. It has not completely disintegrated into space debris, but it has several huge charred holes in its body, and several sets of engine nozzles have disappeared. It has lost the ability to sail and turn, and can only park here and let others slaughter it.
Fu Qinghai was very curious about how Yolanda planned to deal with this war ball ship. After all, joining the Kroot war ship was probably not something that a group of mortal armed sailors could do. Even if it could be done, the casualties would be very heavy. He was waiting for Rogue Trader, waiting for her to ask him to send Iron Buddha Terminators to join the gang, so that he could charge her an additional battle fee.
Unexpectedly, Yolanda Atela had no intention of sending sailors to jump gangs. Instead, she assigned an old man from the family who was proficient in the alien language to board a shuttle and go to the war ball ship alone. Not long after that , the old man returned to the fleet intact, bringing a key message:
The Kroot tribes are willing to surrender to the Rogue Trader fleet and accept their recruitment and employment.
Yolanda looked at Fu Qinghai with a smile.
As if to say: How about some tricks?
Fu Qinghai smiled.
Rogue Trader does have some unique ideas.
“But the cost cannot be less.”
Fu Qinghai reminded.
No matter how the Rogue Trader deals with the war ball ship, whether it destroys it or recruits it, the throne coins that should be calculated for the Iron Buddha Chapter must be estimated based on the value of salvaging the sunken ship.
"I understand, Lord Khan"
Yolanda said softly.
This woman is very coquettish, and her temperament is somewhat similar to Tracy's. They both have a gothic aristocratic style, but the Navigator is a little prickly, while the Rogue Trader behaves a little more gently. Of course, having the courage to lead a fleet across distant star fields and risking the wrath of foreign religious orders to carry out shameless trade, Yolanda Atela is definitely not as weak and bully as she appears, and Fu Qinghai will not be fooled by her disguise. Cheated.
The Rogue Trader fleet remained in the Karnak system, dealing with the excavation of the Wraithbone Temple and the recruitment of the Kroot.
Saroyan Skarson's Thunderwolf cavalry tactical team and Scimitar-class frigate returned to the Chapter's home planet to resume operations. They just passed by here after completing their mission.
The battleship Suzheng and the cruiser Warhorse will also return to the Marquez King area, the garrison area of the battle group.
Everyone said goodbye.
Fu Qinghai wanted to make the Iron Buddha Chapter famous.
But what he didn't expect was that in every battle, he would thoroughly clean up the battlefield to squeeze out the last drop of oil and water, and even summon Rogue Traders to deal with things he didn't like, which would give the war group a new one. Nickname:
Iron Buddha Chapter, also known as Iron Broom Chapter.
The battlefield they cleaned would make me cry when I see it.
Fu Qinghai wanted to be famous, but he didn't expect that one of his unintentional actions would cause both the war group and himself to be infamous as the big bastard in the Galaxy Grandet universe in the future.

Hazy star field, Calixis star sector.
The capital of the sector, the hive world of Sintila.
An Imperial Clipper was about to leave for Holy Terra. It contained no important letters, only a few photos.
The photo was taken from a high altitude: in a dilapidated stronghold, densely packed heads filled the streets and squares, including those of Chaos Space Marines, Orks, and Kroots... After the high-definition photo was enlarged, Even their frozen expressions of pain before death were clearly visible.
These photos will be sent to the Ministry of Military Affairs to inform them of the results of the Iron Buddha Chapter. At the same time, there is also a piece of news that has little to do with this battle that will be brought to Terra with the ship:
Grover Gray, the authorized representative of the Navigator Ambassador and a member of the Gray family, was unfortunately hit by a stray bullet during this battle and died honorably. His body was devoured by the Kroot. The Chapter specially informed the Gray family of this news.
As for a navigator, why does he have to go to the surface to participate in the battle, and his body is devoured by the Kroot after death? Just a notice, I have no other intention, please express my condolences to the Gray family.
…………
On the way back, in the captain's room of the Suzheng.
Fu Qinghai looked at these photos over and over.
I thought it was a really good shot. This time, Terra should have a good idea of the Iron Buddha Chapter's combat strength assessment, right?
Fu Qinghai put the photos in the drawer.
At this time, he suddenly remembered what the dark apostle said before he died.
"Do you think you won?"
"Khorne likes you."
"Welcome to Chaos, my brother."
Fu Qinghai took out the photo and looked at it again.
The skulls are arranged neatly, but there is no deliberate arrangement of the shape of Khorne's runes or multiples of eight...
Isn't this behavior...
It also happens to please Khorne, right?
…………
The background shows that this chapter has exactly 8888 words.
