Chapter 394 1.8 Hades is also confused today
[Who? ]
Fenus Manus said,
[The Silent Order applied to meet, on their main ship? ]
Santo, the warrior who brought him the news, stood silently in front of Feinus and confirmed the original body's question.
Why this time?
Fainus silently thought that the Iron Hands were on their way to the Ultramarine Star Territory. Fulgrim wanted to visit Curze, so the Third Legion was also heading to the Ultramarine Star Territory, and the Iron Hands wanted to meet the Emperor's Children. Convergence.
Fainus tried to dig something out of his memory. He vaguely remembered that Fulgrim told him that the Silent Order was present at the meeting of Nicaea as the emperor's right hand, but after that... this silent order It will be hidden in the darkness again.
So why did they come to see the 10th Legion?
Still inviting Fenusmanus to their warship...
Fenusmanus frowned without any trace. This matter was very sudden, but if the Silent Order could give a reasonable explanation, then he would not Pay attention to these details.
[Okay,] said Faenus, [tell them I will leave immediately. 】
——————————
Compared with ordinary legions, the fleet of the Silent Order is not very large, but... it is more silent, with a unified thin and dark hull, which may appear on ordinary ships. The luminous points were blocked, and Fenusmanus could even tell from the tail flames of their ships that these engines had also been changed, which made the sound when they started more subtle.
The dagger-like Kokotus was floating quietly in the center of the entire fleet of the Order of Silence. Fainus saw those tall and pointed black stone towers, which gave people a sense of oppression like suffocation.
The battleship painted with the Iron Hands docked on the deck of the Kokotus. The hatch opened, and the sound of gas bursting out. Amidst the hum of the engine, Fenus Manus stood on the iron-grey At the cabin door, his iron-white eyes were staring at the person in front of him.
Under the dim light, the imperial guard Charon took a step forward. Beside him, Sister Silence and the red-robed sage were standing silently. Charon looked at Feinus and said without being humble or condescending, "Sir, please follow me
. , because the war is urgent, Pluto is waiting for you in the command room." "Pluto
also hopes to apologize to you for the rude behavior of the Silent Order, but the situation is urgent, please tolerate the rudeness of the Silent Order."
Fernus Iron White His eyes flashed, and he said indifferently,
"It doesn't matter, take me to see him now." 】
The Imperial Army stood at attention, then turned around and began to lead the way, as a welcome formation, while the soulless people displayed on both sides of the road remained motionless, like sculptures.
————————
It was dark inside the Kokouts, very dark.
Perhaps there is no light source here at all.
But this was nothing to the original body and the Space Marines. Although Feinus was very confused about this, the darkness seemed to make the entire ship become oppressive. The further they went inside, the more oppressive the atmosphere became.
He looked at the great red-robed sage following the queue with his peripheral vision. It seemed that there was a sage in the Silent Order, or a position in the Mechanicus. This discovery made Feinus feel a little relieved. , he will naturally have more common topics with people who understand steel.
Charon's figure swayed. When he arrived, a Sister of Silence opened the door for the original body. White light spread on everyone from behind the door. Fainus squinted his eyes. He saw a figure in black armor with his back to They stood in front of the strategy board.
The flow of data on it was extremely fast, and Feinus even had to pay a little attention to keep up with the data flow.
As if he had just noticed that they were coming, the man turned around and said in surprise,
"Sorry, I didn't notice you coming."
He said naturally, and then went to welcome Feinus with a smile, and Feinus stepped forward. Taking one step, he walked into the strategy room, while the imperial soldiers and sages behind him disappeared into the darkness after saluting.
Hades stretched out his hand, and Faenus took it without hesitation.
The Order of Silence has Custodes and Sisters of Silence, which means they belong directly to the Emperor, and Faenus Manus is loyal to the Emperor, that's all.
Even though he was stunned by the existence of this near-primarch, Faenus believed that this was a matter for the Emperor and he did not need to think about it.
"Pluto, Lord of the Silent Order."
Pluto said with a smile,
[Faenus Manus, commander of the Tenth Legion Iron Hands, Lord of Medusa. 】
The two let go of their hands. Pluto glanced at Feinus's hand thoughtfully. There was steel shining with cold light. Feinus had a pair of hands wrapped in steel. This is also the origin of the name of the Tenth Legion. .
Fainus also stared at the metal brain on the other half of Pluto. Influenced by the iron hands of the original body and the weakness of flesh and blood, the warriors in the Iron Hands generally like to use machinery to transform their flesh and blood bodies and replace their brains. This behavior is not uncommon in the hands of steel.
It's just that... Feinus is convinced that the mechanical creation brought by Pluto is definitely stronger than any electronic brain he has ever seen.
After trying to analyze Pluto's mechanical brain to no avail, the original body turned his attention to Pluto. He had white hair and looked very young and handsome, but the ferocious scar on half of the metal brain obscured his original appearance.
Hades smiled, quite politely, Fainus thought.
"I'm sorry to invite you in this form, but the war has begun, and I have to ensure safety in this form." Pluto said calmly, he turned sideways and walked towards the strategic board with Feinus, [The war has already
begun here we go? 】
Fernus asked, he looked at Pluto and seemed to pause for a moment, looking more serious and heavy.
"Yes,"
Pluto said,
"A war...unimaginable to you, and the Order of Silence was established for this purpose."
[You don't have to be so tactful. ]
Fenus spoke directly,
[Accept reality, war, and then victory. Nothing is unimaginable and unacceptable. Since time is urgent, there is no need to waste time on polite words. 】
He watched Pluto pause for a moment, and then smiled with relief,
"Thank God, I can cooperate with such a wise legion."
Pluto spoke faster, his eyes looked up at the map, and Feinus's eyes also Then moved over.
"Then let me tell you straight. The Order of Silence received an urgent order from Terra to go to Cygnus-X1 to fight. According to information from Terra, all legions near the Hazy Star Field have been sent a request to obey the orders of Order of Silence. Will give instructions."
[Iron Hands did not receive this information. ]
Feinusmanus said calmly, while waiting for Pluto's reaction.
But Pluto just smiled helplessly and said,
"That's it. In fact, the information received by the Silent Order is also incomplete - all of this can be explained, because we are about to go to war with subspace creatures, and long-distance communication is completed by subspace, which means You may not receive orders from Terra."
Pluto blinked, and he said softly,
"I have realized this in advance, so I do not expect you to trust me completely, Fainus."
Damn subspace, Pluto thought that this was intentional, and as for why Pluto could receive the communication... it was obvious that this was also intentional. Pluto was very sure that the erased information contained some important content, but there was a high probability that he would never know it. .
Feinus was silent, his eyebrows condensed into a knot, and Pluto waited patiently. While Feinus was silent, Pluto checked again the request for help signal sent by the Silent Order to the other three legions.
Finally, Feinus's hard voice sounded,
[You just said the subspace creature, Pluto. ]
As if he expected Feinus to ask this question, Pluto said without any hesitation,
"Yes, subspace creatures. Later I will give you an illustration of the subspace creatures known to the Silent Order and how to fight them. This is the duty of the Order of Silence."
He watched Feinus turn his head, his iron-gray eyes staring at him calmly, but under the calm steel lake, something was trembling violently,
[I remembered,]
Faenus said,
[You are the former commander of the Death Guard, Hades, right? ]
Fenus stared at Hades,
[Mortarion once mentioned you to me, but I didn't recognize you just now. I always thought...]
Fenus swallowed the second half of the sentence, and he suddenly realized It was so stupid that he didn't recognize Hades.
But this time Hades was stunned.
"...Why did Mortarion mention me in front of you?"
Hades felt like he was scratching his head.
"No, this is not the point. Reminiscing about the past can be left behind,"
Hades said hurriedly,
"If you If you are still confused about the Silent Order and this edict, then I can explain it."
[No,"
Feinus shook his head,
"This is the point." 】
Hades felt confused for the first time.
When and where did Mortarion chat with Faenus? Did he remember that their relationship was very bad?
And why did he appear in their conversation? Or is it that Mortarion, the eldest brother, always praises his commander when everyone meets him?
No more, great!
