MTL - Warhammer Inquisitor-Chapter 544 Rise of the Lion: Bridge Junction

  Chapter 544 The Rise of the Lion King: Bridge Joint

Heavy footsteps in power armor, stepping on the concrete floor, followed by several other footsteps, they followed behind, followed behind Judge Amberley Viva, followed her through the Smelly drain pipes.

After the attack on the highway, Kane, Vito and his party were led by Amberley from the civilized city above, down here, a place that stinks and is full of sewage and garbage, Kane Walking endlessly through ankle-deep domestic sewage.

Kane really envied Amberley wearing a suit of power armor, so that she didn't have to get dirty and walk in sewage, but he was obviously out of luck. His commissar's coat and boots seemed to be destroyed.

He didn't ask Amberley why he brought them here, and he knew he shouldn't, because Vito didn't ask anything, and since he didn't ask, he didn't want to get involved with the judges, unless, of course, The kind that might kill yourself.

But as of now, Kane is alive and well, and the stench here is no stronger than Jurgen's there, and by the Emperor, his poor nose is used to it, just like last time, When he accidentally fell into the camp of the orcs, oh, you should smell the smell among the orcs.

Kane followed the team, observing the enclosed space all around, and subconsciously began to think that it could be used as a bunker, and there could be used to escape, but it is not very optimistic here, there is nothing to hide in the closed drainage channel, as long as there is a Machine gun, Kane's life probably has to be explained here.

But it didn't take long for Kane's worries to disappear. He followed Amberley and stepped under the overpass under the urban drainage channel at the end. It looks like it has been abandoned for many years, but there are still quite a lot of materials, silt and garbage hidden in it left here.

Above Kane's head, there are towering highways and overpasses, they span the man-made canyon, they don't notice anything in this inconspicuous corner below, and here, indeed, a group of people are waiting .

It seems that this is the place where Amberley talked about, and it is indeed very hidden. Kane must admit that he immediately looked at the guys in front of him. There were two groups of people. Kane knew two of them, the starry girl who looked thin and pale, she still didn't seem to like Jurgen very much, and whenever Jurgen got close to her, she would start hysterical soliloquy, so Kane had better not let Jurgen come over to shake hands.

  The other one is that old guy, what's his name? Cahall? Kane remembered that he was Amberley's think tank, although he was a strange old guy, he was indeed very knowledgeable.

There are some other people, Kane does not know, Amberley always has all kinds of strange men, these two look the same, one of them looks like a mercenary, wearing a black jacket, The breastplate and refraction scales are still attached, and there are three full guns hanging on the waist.

  The other is a mechanical priest, but surprisingly, it is a priest, and the face is still human, and it has to be said, it is also very beautiful.

Kane admired her, and soon saw another group, not so pleasing to his eyes, listening to four vehicles in this gutter, one of them a truck, and three armored off-road vehicles with law enforcement painted on the doors. Ministry logo, and the abbreviation MLPD for Local Law Enforcement Team.

And in front of the car, there are quite a few arbitrators standing around. They look serious, wearing bulletproof breastplates and carrying laser guns, or large-caliber shotguns. Just looking at those things, Kane feels embarrassed. My back felt cold for a while.

"Um, people from the legal department?" "You're so observant, how did you find out?" Amberly smiled mischievously, wearing power armor, and went to the truck, and the beautiful mechanical priest quickly got on The former took off the power armor for her, and after all the mechanical arms and brackets in the truck were in place, he quickly opened the chest of the power armor, allowing Amberly, who was dressed in blue, to jump out.

She still dresses so brightly, which is completely different from the low-key black and gray combinations of most Inquisitors. Amberley is always more willing to be noticed by people, Kane remembers once, she told herself, it was the other way around. The truth is, if people are always paying attention to you, then they won't suspect that you are up to something secretly.

But Kane's mind was not on admiring Amberley's new clothes, but on those arbitrators, especially the one at the head of them. He was wearing a gray and white coat with a fully armed breastplate underneath. There are guards all the way down to the legs.

"I think what Commissar Kane means is, are these arbitrators really trustworthy? We just sat in the car he sent, and then we were attacked." Vito looked at the arbitrator in gray clothes in front of him. The officer smiled slightly, "What do you think? Your Excellency the Arbitrator Scheer."

Kane also recognized the arbitrator. He had seen his face on the planet's government composition list when he participated in the tactical briefing before, but Kane never seriously participated in that kind of briefing. After all, military affairs All the information you have is either wrong or out of date.

But he was very lucky. Fortunately, the Ministry of Military Affairs was right on this point. Scheer looked like he had inadvertently glanced at him at the time. He had a strong figure and a beard. Presidential Officer Image.

   "Arbitrator Scheer is one of his own people. He can believe that what happened before was an accident. The Ministry of Justice seems to have been infiltrated, just like the government of this planet."

  Amberley walked over as she said, she came to Vito, looked at him and smiled, "How should I introduce you to him, Judge Constantine, or"

   "Judge." Vito responded coldly. Kane seemed to hear something in the words. What they were hiding from him, but he didn't intend to ask.

   "Okay, Mr. Sher, this is my colleague, a judge from the Religion against Foreigners, and the other is his companion, Judge Alice from the Order of Heresy."

   "It's an honor." Scheer replied simply, without saying a word, and Vito simply nodded to him. He knew that it was Amberley who would really answer the question and give an explanation.

"It seems that our meeting place with the arbitrator has been changed to here." "Indeed, the legal department has been infiltrated. I believe you can also see that the attack during the previous parade and the accident on the highway this time have all It proves a point." "Hmph, why isn't it surprising at all?"

Vito smiled mockingly, and looked in the direction of Judge Scheer, "What about his people?" "They are reliable, I trust them, Judge." Scheer explained confidently, without any face He was unflappable, quite cool about the panic that an Emperor's Inquisitor might experience.

Vito looked at him, looked at the arbitrators again, and then Amberley interjected, "Arbitrator Scheer, and his people are cooperating with me to investigate those separatists hiding in the dark. "

"Then have you found out?" "Well, part of it has been found out. This is a complicated network, but we have already figured out part of it. We have tracked them down and learned of their plan to assassinate Commissar Kane. And stopped them."

  Kane looked melancholy, why did every enemy of the empire stare at him? Why don't they change targets, such as Castine, or Braun? but yourself?

   Kane complained in his heart, but no one noticed it. Vito was still looking at Amberley, "Indeed, it's just a little late to stop, or almost too late."

   "We are short of manpower, so we can't cover everything, but we will try our best. Now we have some clues. At least we know that the entire planetary government has been infiltrated like a sieve. The local governor has seriously neglected his duties."

"He's just a stupid imbecile, just like most governors." Scheer added, his face full of disdain, Vito snorted and put his hands behind his back, "Then this imbecile knows that he was Controlled, or don't know?" "Well, I suspect it's the latter."

  Amberley smiled cutely, as if talking about a naive child again, maybe it was still very vivid, Vito snorted softly with his hands behind his back, "As expected, have you investigated the local Rogue Traders Guild?"

"You mean, someone among them colluded with pirates?" "Yes, did you find out?" The pot is full, and someone in the guild is jealous, to be precise, so they colluded with the pirates to attack the trading fleet of the chairman's family, to intercept his goods, and share with the pirates."

"That is to say, it has nothing to do with the Tau?" Vito asked, and Amberley shook his head briskly, "I haven't found out yet whether they have anything to do with the Tau, but we can be sure that some pirates have nothing to do with the Tau. Relational, like the local separatists."

   "It's a pity that the clues are lost now. On the previous highway, our clue target died in the firefight, but soon we will trace their new tails again."

Judge Scheer said the disappointing news, but quickly added another paragraph, as if he was afraid of making the two new judges feel sorry. Although Kane knew each other, it was more because of Vito After all, even Amberley respected him a lot. Even if Scheer didn't know who he was, he knew how powerful he was.

"It's just that it will take a while to track down. The situation is chaotic enough, but since the arrival of the space fighters, everything has completely gotten out of control." Amber said in that melodious contralto, her voice was very beautiful, Kane had heard her sing, and it was like a sound of nature.

"Space Warriors?" Vito asked immediately, while Amberley shrugged, a little helpless, "Dark Angels, according to my information, they came in their entire regiment and brought their giant rocks, but after they came, Just start looking for pirates and eradicating them on your own, and refuse to communicate with us or anyone."

   "This makes the Tau people very nervous. You know, the arrival of the Astartes last time left a deep impression on them." Amberley smiled cutely, looking at Vito in front of him.

"I didn't participate in the third expansion of Skydome, but I know what you mean, Raven Guard, teach them a lesson." Vito's words surprised Sher and his people, because hearing Vito's meaning, the first two He's involved, and that means Vito's age is over.

  Kane also knew this, but he never asked how Vito maintained such a young body. He knew he shouldn't ask, and he shouldn't be stupid enough to ask.

But Kane was not at all happy to hear the news, because every time the Astartes appeared, it meant the arrival of a great war. They were the angels of death, the emperor's war messengers, and wars would ignite wherever they went, and Not small at all, Kane wished he wasn't there when they came.

But Vito seemed to have a cold and calm expression on his face, making it hard to see what was going on in his heart. He slightly raised his head and glanced at Amberley, "I will get in touch with them and find out their purpose. You continue to investigate. , if you have a clue, contact me."

   "Yes, Lord Inquisitor." Amberly nodded respectfully to him, then Vito turned around to look at Kane, and then pointed to an armored police car beside the arbitrator.

   "Your car is now ours."
