Warhammer Inquisitor

  Chapter 56 End Yan Era: Great People

Purple and blue stardust sprinkled into the ship from outside the corridor of the Martian battlecruiser, and the silvery starlight shimmered on the gray-white ground of the corridor, and countless dreamy colors wrapped the silent side of the battleship. gallery.

The Milky Way is beautiful. No one or anything in this world can create such beautiful things. Even the powers of the subspace, how much effort Lilith and her sister have spent, how many beautiful things have been created in their domain Nothing compares to the galaxy itself.

  The bright galaxy background rises outside the battleship, and the starlight slides on the gaps and edges of the hull, just like a long ship really sailing in the sea of ​​stars.

The huge building complex on the lower edge of the battleship streaked across the stars and dust clouds, and the little starlight made magnificent ripples, and the long tail flames of the propellers pulled out a long light band, and the firelight mixed with all the starlight, accompanied by its edge expanded and integrated.

Cole once joined the Imperial Navy because of his love for these beautiful scenery. He joined the Naval Academy once founded by the Sun Lord Makarian himself in his hometown Makarian. among.

Many people have entered the universe because of this, and the pursuit of infinite unknowns and spectacular scenery has run through the entire human civilization. From the launch of the first wooden boat of mankind to the huge starship that traverses the Milky Way today, mankind's exploration of the unknown has never ceased. It has not changed from beginning to end.

  Vito walked in the promenade, he looked at the magnificent starry sky beside him, all kinds of colors merged together to become the beauty that cannot be described in words.

  Silver studded boots walked on the ground, the blue-purple light illuminated the boots like a dream, and the sound of his footsteps also became distant and ethereal in the starlight, as if this was still a dream.

But Vito knew it was not, because when he passed by the barracks of the Astartes just now, he heard Ragnar's snoring, and the vulgar dream talk in Fenrisian dialect, and he also heard Bell's elegant horse's voice after being awakened. Kulag's Gothic swearing voice, so yeah, he's not dreaming.

  Vito put his finger on his belt and his eyes reflected the starry sky. Even after living for so long, he still likes to watch all of this. The nebula is different every day, and even every time he looks at it is different.

  Starlight gathered from tens of thousands of light-years away intertwined together, and the beautiful picture scroll of the bright starry sky was displayed in front of his eyes. The black eyes shone with endless light, and the face was also flawlessly illuminated by the starlight.

He still remembered the first time he looked up at the stars. Mount Sinai was a good place to watch the starry sky. Amidst the jingle of camel bells and the chants of believers in the cathedral, Vito looked up at the starry sky and was moved by the light that filled the sky. From then on, he wanted to enter that sea of ​​stars, and finally he did.

Vito stopped. He stood in front of the glass, the bolter and the chainsword were bathed in the starlight, he closed his eyes and recalled the ancient memory, the sea breeze of the Aegean Sea and the sound of the stream on the Tiber River came to his ears , the waves of the Red Sea rose and fell one after another, and the Gallic forests rustled.

  He felt the sun bathing his face, the birds were flying and singing around, and there was a sound of animals passing through the woods, which surrounded him naturally, in the ancient memory.

  Vito opened his eyes, the huge star clusters in his eyes flickered on the other side of the darkness, and the ferocious light of the Eye of Fear seemed far away as if it did not exist.

   But Vito knew that the rift was there, staring at all this beauty from beyond the endless starlight.

Vito sighed and continued walking along the promenade, the chainsaw sword dangling back and forth on his waist, Vito was fully armed even if he was walking on the boat in the middle of the night, even if his right arm had been replaced by Omega with a new prosthetic body , he still carried all the weapons and equipment with him.

  I think this is largely due to a kind of unconsciousness, he doesn't believe in all this, he always lives in doubt and memory, in the memory of the ancient past.

Following his footsteps, he came to the mural area at the end of the corridor, where magnificent pictures were depicted on the walls, the emperor and his loyal heirs, standing majestically on the side of the wall, with countless patterns and extreme Psalms of praise adorned it all.

  But Vito still smiled helplessly. He looked at the faces. Obviously, the stone sculptor tried his best to carve them into stalwarts, fortitude and holiness, so that they reached a ridiculous point.

Seriously, when Vito saw Leman Russ's face, he even laughed. The laughter echoed in the long corridor for a long time before it dissipated. He stroked the mural of the wolf king. He was so tall that Vito Thor could only touch his belt.

   "Leman Russ." Vito said softly, he walked through the carvings and paintings touching their surfaces.

"Koraz Kirk, Saint Gilles, Ferus Marus." He said as he walked in front of the giants, each giant was bathed in the starlight like holy gods, but Vito knew them Not God.

  Gradually a smile appeared on his face, and his fingers flicked across the surface of the statue, shining joyfully in the starlight.

"Lian Al'Jonson, Jaghatai Khan, Roger Dorn." The boots moved among the stars, and the sound of footsteps spread and passed along with the sound, but Vito's eyes remained fixed from the beginning to the end. without leaving their faces.

   "Vulcan Vulcan, Roboute Guilliman." Vito said as he saw the last person, that was the most stalwart, tall and majestic giant, surrounded by everyone.

  The halo of the sun burned and shone behind his head. The stone sculptor specially used a whole piece of smooth gold to create the halo. Under the starlight, the halo shone endlessly, as if it was really burning.

  Vito stood in front of him and looked at the giant, whose eyes gazed into the endless sea of ​​stars.

Vito smiled and walked past him. He continued walking towards the end of the corridor, even though there were no giants on the murals, he still stroked the wall. It is considered a cursed name.

"Conrad Curze, Perturabo, Angron." Following the footsteps, the names were evoked from his mouth, "Fulgrim, Mortarion, Magnus, Lorgar. "

   "Alpharius, Omega."

  "Horus Lupekar" Vito stopped when he pronounced the last name, as if his heart had been stabbed, he stopped walking and sighed long.

But he didn't say anything and just walked forward, he passed under a door, it was a dark brown solid wood door at the end of the corridor, the thick door leaned on both sides like a city gate, it seemed that it had been opened long ago up.

Vito walked in, and the light here gradually dimmed. Vito walked on the ground of the magnificent church, and a multicolored gleam was projected from the baise-colored glass windows, but the place was still generally dark, magnificent like a building. An icon of the Emperor stands on a shrine overlooking the hall.

He holds the holy sword and points directly at the sky. The designer of this church specially opened a long glass top window on the dome of the church. The emperor's holy sword can better point to the endless sea of ​​stars. His ambition is wordless. Announced the great rise of human civilization.

  Vito found a bench and sat down. He sat weakly on the bench and let out a long sigh. He lowered his head and remained silent for a long time before raising his head.

  He looked up at the icon of the Emperor and showed a bitter smile, "I didn't expect that I would also get used to calling you "Emperor"."

"Is our people still saved? After such a long time, can the flame of hope really burn?" Vito asked softly. The beautifully decorated icon is majestic and unattainable, just like a god.

"It's been thousands of years, and human beings have been walking in the dark for thousands of years. How much rationality and hope are left?" Vito sighed and rubbed his head, "That magic stick came to me, saying that Abaddon Coming back, he will finish what Horus has left unfinished."

   "I still remember that time, I remember the days when everyone was drinking happily together and talking without reservation. I even remember Ryan laughing at that time. Really, he really laughed."

  Vito looked down at the marble floor, the dark ground was dark and dull, the atmosphere of silence lasted for a while, and many things flashed in Vito's eyes.

   "I don't know if I should interfere with the fate of mankind. I don't know if I'm still willing to take responsibility for all of this. Will the light of truth really shine?"

A ray of light appeared on the ground between the words, it was a fire, and the swaying flame illuminated the ground and the surrounding space in front of Vito's eyes, the judge raised his head and looked at the person walking by him, it was a person wearing man in white robe.

"Father Huss?" Vito asked in surprise, and the priest silently walked under the icon of the emperor and lit a candle under the shrine. A small part of the icon of the emperor.

   "Happy Ascension Day, Inquisitor Vitor."
