"Captain of the Garst Guards."
Alexander shouted behind him, left the Forbidden Army and walked to the screen alone to look at the star map with twinkling bright spots.
Roger Dorn has already expressed his attitude with practical actions. Naturally, Alexander will not be arrogant and does not even have an explanation.
Otherwise, conflicts and misunderstandings will accumulate and eventually become difficult to reconcile.
"Sorry, Lord Primarch Rogal Dorn, I must be responsible for the safety of His Royal Highness the eldest son."
"I hope you can tell the truth about the current situation."
The Captain of the Guards of the Just Guards decisively bent down and bowed to show his attitude. He did not care about his own face.
It is his honor to protect His Royal Highness the eldest son and complete the mission.
In fact, the captain of the Just Guard was really too anxious. He knew the importance of His Royal Highness, the eldest son.
When leaving Terra, Prime Minister Malcador personally spoke to him and blocked some of his memories.
Caster knew all this.
When he lost contact with Terra, Castor noticed that they were not off course and did not immediately inform Alexander.
Instead, according to the emergency plan, he notified the Forbidden Army brothers to quietly observe everything around them.
They were trying to find an opportunity to seize a ship and jump directly out of the warp into the material world.
But after nearly a month of preparation, the Imperial Fist Legion obviously did not give him this opportunity.
Until yesterday, Alexander didn't know the news about their missing contact.
As for Rogal Dorn, it's because he has been fighting in outer galaxies all year round.
I have experienced subspace travel countless times. It is common for signal interruptions to occur, but I did not expect that this time it would take such a long time.
Alexander did not investigate why his information was so lagging because it no longer made sense.
The Imperial Guard were not directly subordinate to Alexander, they belonged to the Emperor.
Therefore, it was not that surprising to cross Alexander and question the Primarch Rogal Dorn first.
Alexander directly interrupted Garst's request and bumped Rogal Dorn with his shoulder.
"Dorn, based on your experience, is it safe for us to travel through subspace? Is it necessary to jump out into the material world immediately?"
Rogal Dorn did not give an answer immediately, but pointed to the bright spot on the star map where the Torch of Terra was.
"We depart from here and sail silently through the subspace for three months, and then transfer to the forward forge world currently conquered by the empire for transit."
"Actually, essentially we are not lost, we just lost the communication signal briefly."
"This is normal in subspace navigation, but this time it lasted too long."
Professional matters should naturally be left to professionals.
Roger Dorn explained the current predicament in just a few sentences.
If Alexander didn't know Rogal Dorn's character, he would have thought that the Imperial Fists were planning to kill him just from Caster's description.
Moreover, Alexander knew that the current subspace storm had just been blown away, so it would not be consistent with the characteristics of subspace if some abnormal situations did not occur.
"You are still fully responsible for the command of the Phalanx. As for whether to jump out of the subspace, I will not have any interference."
Alexander believed that Rogal Dorn had the ability to handle all this.
With a powerful war fortress like the Phalanx, and with the Primarch sitting at its command.
If something life-threatening goes wrong again, there is only one possibility: the Emperor's grand plan.
The most important thing is that Alexander did not feel the crisis, nor was he excited.
"Besides the current state of being out of contact, are there any other abnormalities on the Phalanx?"
"For example, the Astra Militarum or something."
Alexander wasn't sure if there was anything unusual about the Astra Militarum.
But he has recently felt the overly enthusiastic atmosphere in the arena, which is significantly different from a month ago.
It's like being put into a church to worship and believe in.
What the Astra Militarum saw in the arena seemed to be no longer a living person, but a symbol.
"The non-combat attrition of the Astra Militarum has been reduced by more than half. In the past month or so, it has even been reduced to none."
The first time Roger Dorn got this report, he was confused.
But since Alexander mentioned it, he still told the truth.
"Can the specific time be accurate to the same time when the Phalanx lost contact?"
Alexander remembered that even faith had power here.
Could it be that the Astra Militarum's beliefs were too fanatical, causing the signal to spread in the warp?
Roger Dorn quickly rummaged through the data reports on the command platform.
When the Phalanx is sailing in subspace, routine inspections must be carried out every day, and of course a report will be left every day.
The two carefully compared the information in the data report and finally came to a conclusion.
The two are definitely related, and the fluctuation does not exceed two days.
"Perhaps it is because the chaos in this subspace has been dispelled, so the Astra Militarum did not suffer non-combat attrition, and it also interfered with long-distance communications."
Roger Dorn came to a plausible conclusion based on his own conjecture.
He looked at Alexander trying to explain all this, trying to calm his emotions.
After all, the Forbidden Army makes such a fuss, even if there is no problem, it still makes people feel uneasy.
Rogal Dorn didn't understand that this was due to the Astra Militarum's fanatical beliefs, but Alexander obviously knew better.
But he wasn't going to explain this to Roger Dorn, because some knowledge was poisonous.
"Maybe you are right, I already know the current situation."
Alexander threw away the document and turned to the screen to look at the star map.
He only knew the location where the Primarchs returned, but did not know the specific time when each Primarch returned.
This means that Alexander must enter the material world as soon as possible and complete every step of the plan as quickly as possible according to the emperor's plan.
Because Alexander cannot yet clearly predict the future, and the Emperor has already mastered most of what he can control.
"According to the next sailing plan, how long will it take for us to arrive at the scheduled location?"
"Half a month, no, two weeks."
Roger Dorn was still very certain about the Phalanx's traveling speed.
"Then we must ensure that in the last two weeks, if there is any abnormality, we will immediately enter the material world."
Even at any time, due caution should be maintained when dealing with subspace.
After all, the dark side of the world is also a complete world.
"I understand that safety is the first priority."
Roger Dorn looked down at Alexander, who had a serious face, and wanted to touch his head, but hesitated and put down his hand.
Before leaving Terra, Malcador said everything he could and could think of.
Rogal Dorn knew very well the importance of Alexander, the heir to the empire, and the only one.
Moreover, Alexander was one of the rare people with whom he could communicate effectively.
The two even maintain a certain tacit understanding in dealing with problems.
Wasn't it the case when we just dealt with those two company commanders who made mistakes?
Rogal Dorn himself could feel how much he had changed during the time he spent with Alexander.
