The lion looked at the saint in front of him indifferently, and his razor-sharp gaze kept scanning the almost out-of-control expression on the other person's face. Those incomprehensible mantras were constantly rising and moving, as the martyrdom of this no longer noble man continued. The words of the author were like a poisonous snake full of malice, spitting venom at him, aiming at Caliban's beast with a sharp blade called morality and a gun called blood.
It was obvious that this was not going to do anything, he had never cared for the weapon of words.
Ryan felt a little confused as to why Luo Jia still carried out this behavior even though he knew it was meaningless. Although he could clearly understand the noble and ancient Gothic words spoken in Luojia's mouth, it was just that when they were put together and addressed to him in a tone that was almost questioning, it was difficult for Ryan to understand them. meaning.
Do you want to accuse yourself? Or do you want to vent your anger that your home planet will be destroyed?
However, in the face of an almost unimaginable iron man threat...is it important?
In fact, there are not many Word Bearers armies on this planet. Today, there are nearly 50,000 troops stationed on the surface of Colchis, and the Astartes from the Word Bearers only account for about half of them. Eight thousand, while the Astartes from the Dark Angels have a huge size of at least 20,000 - if the cyclone torpedo was dropped without warning, then the Dark Angels should be the ones who suffered the great damage. right.
Moreover, Colchis is not an indispensable strategic location. The level of industrialization is also at the lower level in the empire. If this was Ryan's own home planet, he would still be facing the situation in front of him. Make the same choice.
However, Luo Jia showed an almost unacceptable attitude, which made Ryan very confused.
Yes, for the Primarch, the home star is of irreplaceable importance. The vast majority of Primarchs would choose their home star as the starting point for the Great Crusade, and the ambitious Robert Guilliman developed a huge army in the Ultramar, centered on Ultramar. Five hundred worlds.
Needless to say, even Ryan is no exception when it comes to the issue of his home planet. The fact that the Dark Angels' recruitment was only conducted on Caliban was enough to show how much that dangerous jungle meant to him.
But when faced with some critical moments, Ryan didn't feel that this special meaning was worth sacrificing for. At least, for the current Caliban Lion-in the past, it wasn't too important. things. The Lion would not allow his energy to be diverted from the Great Crusade until he had completed the mission entrusted to him by the Emperor.
"...I'll ask you again, Ryan."
"Are you willing to drop whirlwind torpedoes on the warriors who are still fighting on the surface for a baseless conjecture and an imaginary enemy that may not even exist? Or even destroy my home planet and kill billions of mortals? Is this your 'glorious contribution' in this great crusade to redeem all mankind?"
Luo Jia clenched his teeth and looked at the brother in front of him almost as if he was asking questions.
Luojia felt more and more unfamiliar with this ice-cold lion in front of him. He thought that his brothers with different personalities were all as great as Magnus and Horus. Although the Seventeenth Legion had not conquered too many worlds, at least, he thought that this The purpose of the Great Expedition is to save mankind, not to trample and despise life wantonly for some unreasonable strategic goals. In that case, how are they different from the alien empires that ravage mankind in the galaxy? ?
No... it's even worse than that, because they once brought hope to these fellow human beings, like a candle lit in the dark night - if the numb sight of those who have been accustomed to the darkness once again regains consciousness after being redeemed Falling into despair, it would be better not to have this hope.
Faced with all the words Luo Jia said, Ryan's brows only became more and more frowned.
Although the situation in front of him made Ryan feel a little unreasonable, in general, he still knew what the situation in front of him was called.
--conflict.
What a headache-inducing vocabulary.
To be honest, Ryan doesn't think he has any real-time conflict with Luojia, at least... unlike the time in Dulan - when his descendants died in friendly fire for no reason, their Death did not speed up the progress of the expedition, nor was it a burden that had completely lost its combat capability. It was simply due to the fact that the idiot Leman Russ had extremely little control over his soldiers.
He thought that this situation would not happen again, and it happened to Luojia, who had a good reputation among his brothers - although Ryan had heard that there were two people in Luojia's legion. The traitor named 'Erebus' and 'Kor Phaeron', but Elaine's surveillance has undoubtedly clearly proved that Luojia's loyalty to the empire is not serious. Presumably, the genetic origin of the 12th Legion He temporarily left Colchis because he had a more important task on his body.
Before receiving orders from the Emperor, Lion did not want to interfere too much in the affairs of other legions.
Although he has corresponding power, this power also restricts his true intention at all times.
The old incident of the Ran Dan War does not need to happen again.
"...Not an imaginary enemy, Luojia."
"It's a reasonable inference."
Along with Ryan's increasingly cold voice, his wrist that was tightly restrained by Luojia began to move slowly, and he broke free from the opponent's grasp with strength.
Opportunity should never be delayed for any reason. When the worst possibility has arisen, you must do your best to be prepared to face it.
Ryan has seen too many battle situations that have been turned upside down due to a moment of negligence. Naturally, the strange situation in front of him can be summarized as one of them. The terrifying destructive power of those iron men from the dark technological age, as long as there is a moment's delay, Then the entire sector will be engulfed by out-of-control war - this is the experience that Ryan relies on, and it is also the past that Caliban's jungle taught him.
Obviously, Luo Jia knew nothing about this.
"I don't know when you will understand, and I don't want to know when you will understand."
"If you and your legion still hold on to this belief that will delay the war, it will one day come back to bite you."
"My action was to deal with the Iron Man issue, not to deal with the relationship between the Word Bearers and the Empire - that was her responsibility, never mine."
Ryan just looked at Luo Jia coldly, his fingers resting on the [Launch Command] on the data pad, as if waiting for Luo Jia's permission.
“Until the point of no return, you will regret it.”
