As the subspace rift at Mandeville Point was torn open, it symbolized that the ships from the distant star field finally sailed out of the subspace channel.
Through the lavender subspace curtain, one can clearly see an indifferent torrent of steel slowly driving out. The empire's golden double-headed eagle and skull symbolize their identity and purpose. There is no doubt that it is a force that is in the midst of a war. An expeditionary fleet serving in the Great Crusade—and judging from the huge Glory Queen-class battleship at the head, this was even an expeditionary fleet of the Legion Astartes.
In the huge battlefield burning the entire galaxy, the arrival of an Astartes legion almost means that the star field has fallen into some kind of emergency crisis situation, and may even reach an emergency level that even the Emperor needs to take action.
And that's probably the case.
This huge battleship had already warmed up all its weapon systems and artillery arrays in less than 10 Terra standard minutes after leaving the subspace. Their target was undoubtedly the star in front of them called Colchis. Religious World - Under the cold orders of the Primarch, several cyclone torpedoes have also been loaded in the torpedo compartment.
It seemed that destruction was about to happen in an instant.
At this moment, on the bridge of the Glory Queen-class battleship named Unyielding Truth, a pair of cold and ferocious eyes were looking at Colchis.
Some dim starlight reflected through the portholes on the thick dark green armor. The strong and tough face exuded a lingering invisible majesty. Hidden in the shadow under the hood was a pair of eyes from a beast.
He is the Lord of the First Legion, the conqueror of Caliban, the Head Lion of the Dark Angels, the coldest Primarch, Llane El'Jonson.
The lion is thinking and observing the prey in front of him.
For this desert world, Ryan seems to be looking for a motivation not to completely destroy it——
Because this is a world under the empire? No, its existence is too dangerous. This is from the Iron Man world dozens of thousands of years ago - it must be destroyed.
Because this is the outpost of the Great Crusade in the Pacific Star Territory? No, Colchis has been deserted for a long time. Its existence cannot bring any value to the empire, and the empire will not suffer much loss after destroying it.
Because this is the home planet of his brother, the Primarch Lorgar? No, Lorgar's legion has the possibility of rebellion. If necessary, he needs to nip this danger in the cradle in advance.
very good.
Ryan El'Jonson's beast eyes closed slightly.
The flame of reason was beating in it, flickering and then extinguished, and the obscure wildness reflected a huge shadow in it. It was obvious that he had tried his best to convince himself.
For a world with signs of Iron Man activity, and for a home planet of Primarchs, this is the maximum rational thinking that the Lion can do.
Since intercepting the astrological message sent by Colchis, the main fleet of the Dark Angels disappeared in an instant on the battlefield where they were supposed to go - and Terra seemed to have known about this for a long time, and the other few The Astartes Legion was transferred to the battlefield where the Dark Angels were supposed to go.
There is no doubt about the operational capabilities of the First Army.
Therefore, in just a few Terran days of subspace navigation, they were already prepared to face the worst outcome - the Iron Men would resurrect in the galaxy, and the First Legion would pay the price with their lives and wills. To extinguish those dangerous flames completely.
Ryan even thought that Lorgar was dead.
According to his experience and the secrets he knows, the emergence of Iron Man can definitely be listed as one of the top three crisis situations in the empire, and he does not think that the Word Bearers Legion has the ability to handle this kind of crisis. Therefore, he is using the worst possible method to deal with this kind of crisis. situation as a hypothesis to better face the crisis we will face next.
Obviously, large-scale firefights or energy fluctuations from battles have not yet been detected on the surface of the planet Colchis, but the auspicious array of Indomitable Truth has actually detected peace.
There's something really wrong with this.
Ryan knew that it was impossible to eliminate the malice of some iron men towards human beings, and what was hidden under these illusions of peace might be a more terrifying and bloody dangerous truth.
Perhaps Iron Man had already escaped from Colchis during this period of time, or perhaps all organic life in the nearby star field had been completely destroyed, and what remained was just an illusion produced by some crazy technology——
Of course, if Iron Man has not yet left Colchis, then the Cyclone Torpedo is definitely the best solution.
For those dangerous creations from the dark technological age, Ryan has never hesitated to speculate on their potential threats in the most extreme way. Just because his legion controls some secrets about Iron Man, he will use the worst guesses as possible. premise.
Huge thoughts and knowledge began to burst out in the brain of this Primarch. More and more scenes and battlefields beyond ordinary people's imagination and cognition were deduced in this lion's mind, and each one was constructed into his extremely powerful... Familiar tactics.
No matter what he will face next, he is fully prepared.
Until a cold female voice suddenly appeared in Ryan's mind, interrupting his thoughts.
[It seems that I almost became the Primarch killed by the cyclone torpedo dropped by my brother. 】
Elaine's tone revealed sadness, as if she had expected what Ryan would do.
However, Ryan did not react in any way to Elaine's voice, as if her psychic transmission did not exist at all.
Or simply regard her voice as some kind of Iron Man technology.
[Okay...it seems I need to verify my identity. 】
[Unexpectedly, remote communication in the 30th millennium also requires a "Turing test." 】
Elaine's voice revealed some helplessness, but she had already expected this. The word "affable" was never used to describe this lion from Caliban.
[Star language code-716]
[Pacific Star Territory-Colchis Galaxy-Colchis Planet]
[It has been detected that the planet's semi-permanent large-scale stasis force field has been lifted, and the time energy level is -17854, which retroactively represents the age of dark technology. 】
[Alpha level confidentiality is accepted by: Holy Terra, the 1st, 10th, 12th, and 16th Astartes Legions. 】
[Sender: Angron-Elaine, Primarch of the Twelfth Legion]
"...?"
As a large amount of information flow and astrological communication were telepathically transmitted to Ryan's brain, and the information flow code that could only be detected by the Primarch was continuously spliced into shape, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
As for this encrypted message, Ryan's advanced brain computing power completely decoded it without any effort, and the result turned out to be a line from an ancient Terra drama.
【Survival or destruction? this is a problem. 】
It was obvious that this strange Primarch sister was identifying herself to him in this way.
The Lion of Caliban thought for a moment, but this time, his reason did not convince himself.
Two more Primarchs.
Another huge crisis that threatens the empire.
But the First Legion never backed down.

I will continue to be tortured by my boss tomorrow, so go to sleep!
