"oh?"
"I looked through the files of those dead people, and they all seem to be suspected of crimes. Not many people in the legion have the leisure to kill criminals now. The only one I can think of is you... the traitor."
Talos did not call this man a traitor for nothing, or rather appropriately.
Kasati Nuon was once a member of the Night Lords Legion. When the Horus Heresy broke out, Nuon believed that the traitors who betrayed the Emperor were a group of "Oathbreakers" who had betrayed their oaths, so he During the massacre on Stevan 5, he defected and killed many of these "Oathbreakers" - mostly members of the Eighth Legion - before joining the remnants of the Raven Guard. The Raven Guard Legion serves Legion Master Corax.
People like him are naturally considered "famous" in the Eighth Legion, but most people think that he died on Skarlato.
"ha."
Cassati grinned, showing his pale teeth.
"The current you are also suitable for this title, Talos of the Astral Knights."
As he spoke, he threw the skull aside, picked up his sword, picked up his helmet, and stood up.
"But the little guys you trained are good, and the Eighth Legion can still be saved."
"You didn't come here just to talk nonsense to me, right?"
"Of course, I'm here mainly for two things. One is to tell you a piece of news. You'd better tell it to the Supreme Lord Commander. Vasco Gore and his Shadow Ghost War Gang have come to the Maelstrom. "
"it?"
Talos frowned. This was not good news, or rather very bad news.
Vasco Gor is also an old acquaintance. He was the former captain of the 27th company of the legion. He was also one of the company commanders who supported the scumbag Count Tattooed Face. This guy has been active in the Eye of Terror and Jeskovo for many years after the great rebellion. In the secondary sector, he created several massacres, such as spending several weeks hunting down the natives of Harlan, killing the Ward Lord Mordus in the sector and poaching all the dead Death Watch. After doing evil deeds such as his eyeball, he gained the favor of Chaos, until he dedicated the heart of a loyal Space Marine Captain to the dark gods, and finally received the gift of becoming a Daemon Prince.
When the Prime was still alive, he had a conflict with this guy, and Talos also fought against the Shadow Wraith warband under Vasco Gor.
Generally speaking, those people are basically twisted lunatics who have fallen into the subspace and are highly mutated. They belong to the end of the Eighth Legion's chain of contempt.
But this does not mean that they are not difficult to deal with. In fact, a Night Lord Demon Prince is quite difficult to deal with, especially Vasco Gore. He was famously shameless in the Legion era, even though there are now Astral Knights and Gray Knights. Yes, but there is a saying that is good——
He is not afraid of the Demon Prince being powerful, but he is afraid that the Demon Prince will be shameless. What Vasco Gor is best at is carrying out terrorist massacres against civilians, and this is what Talos is most worried about.
Now that Huron has invited Vasco Gore, this fear may be fulfilled.
"What about the second thing?"
"Relating to the first thing, I'll help you hunt down this bastard."
Talos blinked and suddenly laughed.
"Thank you very much, but...if I remember correctly, you took refuge in that person, and he disappeared for so long, and you suddenly appeared again, it is difficult not to make people doubt that you are him Sent."
Cassati Nuang walked to Talos with that malicious smile and said softly:
"Is this important?"
"Very important."
Talos said seriously:
"We are the Imperial Expeditionary Force that exercises punishment on behalf of the Emperor. We will not take in people of unknown origin."
"Tsk tsk tsk, punishment, I like these two words, but to say that the origin is unknown and our identity is just the same, maybe I am better."
】
"Then who do you admit sent you? Why didn't he come himself? If he took action, whether it was Vasco Gore or Huron, wouldn't it be easy for him to do it?"
"Don't ask me about this, I can't answer it. The only thing I know is that I'm going to help you get rid of that bastard. Of course, I also want to see what the new legion looks like."
Talos narrowed his eyes and took two steps back.
"They are not part of the Legion."
Cassati Nuang laughed, not caring that there might be patrols around him. The laughter penetrated the green ghosts around him, like the howl of a demon in the middle of the night.
"No matter how much you deny it, Talos, you still shape them into the appearance of the Nightborne, but more like the appearance before the return of the original body, but certain things are still carved into their bones, such as fear and punishment."
"so what?"
"They will eventually break away from the Astral Knights. The Children of the Night will always be the Children of the Night and cannot stand in the sun for a long time. However, escaping into the darkness may not be a bad thing. I have a suggestion. In the future, maybe you can lead them to establish a new The battle group is covered by the sub-groups of the Nineteenth Legion."
Talos spat on the ground disdainfully.
"I hate crows, let alone ravens."
Cassati Nuang shrugged.
"Just a suggestion. Do you plan to let them live under someone else's roof forever, or become... pirates like the Claws of Ash End?"
"It's none of your business."
The former traitor to the Eighth Legion showed his hands.
"All right."
Talos fell silent and glanced at the opponent's sword. It was a black power sword, the surface seemed to sparkle like oil paint, and the hilt was a combination of crow's wings and Midnight's skull.
When the other party looked at him, Talos tilted his head to the side and drew his sword.
His sword was like a winding snake, attacking Kassati's neck, but Kassati was ready, and narrowly avoided the fatal blow at the last moment. His sword hit Talos' groin. It hit him, but Talos also dodged at an astonishing speed. At the same time, the long sword flashed out twice and struck Kassati's head as fast as mercury. Kassati had to change the direction of his sword and blocked it. This blow.
"Not bad, Cassati."
Talos suddenly withdrew his sword.
"Your sharp sword was very famous in the legion back then. In these ten thousand years, you have not turned into a crow that can flap its wings."
"You are very different."
Kasati calmly withdrew the sword, but was shocked inside because his hand was slightly numb at the moment.
This personal scroll, which had not been seen for ten thousand years, was so powerful at this moment.
Talos grinned, his white teeth shining horribly in the dim green light, like a midnight ghost.
"Who among the legions who have survived to this day dares to say that he has not changed?"
Cassati was silent for a moment and nodded.
"That's true... By the way, have you met the First Company Commander?"
"Um."
"Has he changed too?"
"Changed, greater than any change you can imagine. He is no longer the first company commander, nor is he the Prince of Crows."
