MTL - Warhammer Inquisitor-Chapter 546 The Lion Rise: First Contact

  Chapter 546 Rise of the Lion King: First Contact

Kane no longer remembers how long they drank in the bar. He, Vito, and Duncan boasted a lot, and even signed autographs for some enthusiastic and loyal people of the empire. He vaguely remembered Among them were some young girls, who were quite nice.

There were also some soldiers of the Defense Forces who came later, Kane vaguely remembered that they asked himself some questions, but the Emperor, Kane was already half drunk at the time, so he didn't remember what they asked at all, and he had some questions. He answered something, but it shouldn't be a big problem. After all, Kane remembered that it was Vito who answered the questions most of the time.

As for myself, I can drink with peace of mind, but Kane tried his best not to get too drunk. After all, he still has to return to the camp intact. Duncan is not very reliable when he is awake. It's even worse when you're drunk, so Kane should be more sober.

In fact, of the three, only Duncan was so drunk that when he left, Kane and Vito each held one of his shoulders to make him stand up. Duncan said goodbye to the proprietress with a smirk, and the latter didn't seem to want much. Let them go, Kane didn't know if it was the three of them, or one or two of them, or even one.

But during the moment when he was drunk, he seemed to see that Vito had left a note for the proprietress. The wind suddenly woke up Kane a lot.

  They can't take the main road now, and they can't let the locals see a drunk, filthy, and constantly making fun of anyone. The Star Militia officer, so they took a small road, a small road pointed by Duncan.

The place is dark and narrow, surrounded by small shops that are not crowded with people, only sporadic passers-by pass by on the street, neon lights illuminate the dark stone road, and the surrounding high-rise walls squeeze inward as they move forward, getting more and more Narrower, like a beast about to shut up.

Kane doesn't really trust his current judgment, but there's nothing he can do. Kane has only been on this planet for two days, and Vito is about the same, so the only one who really understands this place and can at least bring them back to the camp is Duncan. Bless the Emperor, I hope he can still see the road ahead.

Kane and Vito walked on the road with one of his arms crossed, passing through the cold plateau city streets, but soon Vito frowned, Kane was keenly aware of this, and asked him what happened.

   "This is the wrong way, we're going the wrong way." Vito stopped, and asked Kane to stop too, no joke? Kane knows that once things really start to go wrong, he won't use his unique sense of humor to lighten the mood, because he will let others know that something is wrong.

Kane cautiously observed the surrounding area, and soon realized what Vito meant when he said it was wrong. The number of local alien sympathizers with long braids, shaved heads, and even smeared blue paint on their faces increased. There were more and more of them, even more than normal pedestrians, and the three of them, wearing the uniforms of the Astral Army, were even more eye-catching.

The alien sympathizers around kept throwing their gazes at them, and Kane was sure that most of them were not friendly, so he leaned close to Duncan and shook him, asking quickly, "Hey, Duncan! Are you sure this is the way back to the camp?" ?"

"It's a camp, but it's not ours. I think you might want to see it more, the Tau's camp, hiccup." Duncan said inarticulately, and Kane immediately collapsed, "You idiot ! You lead us towards the enemy's territory?!"

Kane cursed the eighteenth generation of Duncan's unknown ancestors in his heart. He had forgotten that Duncan completely believed his heroic lies, and confidently believed that their heroic political committee single-handedly scouted the enemy's situation. So unlucky?

   But there was still time to sneak away, Kane quickly winked at Vito, and then he and Duncan turned back with him, preparing to leave here, but obviously, the old emperor, the old man, was very unhappy with himself tonight.

   They had just walked a few steps when they were blocked by a group of alien sympathizers who appeared in the alley. Kane was about to retreat, but found that several people appeared behind them, and they were blocked in the middle of the road.

Vito frowned slightly, turned his body backwards, hid his back half in the blind spot illuminated by the street lights, and quietly touched the bolt gun he was wearing. Kane looked at him, and then at the surrounding people. The surrounding xenomorph sympathizers, one of whom had his entire face painted blue, apparently stepped forward to be close to their xenophobia.

Kane looked at him, but he wasn't too nervous. With his many years of experience, he could be sure that his chainsaw sword and laser gun were definitely much better than the steel rods in their hands. In addition, Vito, He is well aware of the latter's fighting power, he has seen with his own eyes, Vito fought with three Tyranid Licartes, and finally hacked them to death.

  And, although these alien sympathizers are aggressive, they are obviously still in awe of themselves, or in other words, in awe of the gun on Commissar Kane's belt and the chainsaw sword.

   "You are not welcome here! Terrell Munda, and Damocles Bay are not welcome, and we do not welcome thieves, thieves who have come to escape our lives and our homes!"

The blue-faced man was yelling loudly. Kane was about to say something to ease the atmosphere. Duncan, who was still drunk in front of him and couldn't speak a word, suddenly regained his energy. He raised his head and shook Kane away. And Vito's hand, stepped forward and yelled, "Ah! We are here to teach you, you **** who slept with aliens! We will take you, and your alien mother, no one's **** Throw a grenade in!"

Duncan's words immediately had an effect. To be precise, it was the angry blue-faced alien sympathizer who cursed, immediately picked up the steel rod in his hand, and hit the drunk Duncan on the face at once, causing him to The child fell to the ground.

The man looked at Kane, picked up the steel rod in his hand, and surrounded him with the accomplices behind him. Kane was shocked, and instinctively pulled out the chainsaw sword at his waist, but he pulled out the steel rod, He was hit by a stick behind him, and the steel stick hit Kane's finger hard, causing the sword in his hand to fall to the ground.

  Kane looked at the alien sympathizer behind him, with a fierce expression on his face, he raised the stick in his hand towards Kane and was about to open it, but suddenly, his head was blown to pieces.

Vito pulled out the bolt gun at a completely invisible speed, spun the trigger, shot in the air, then grabbed Kane by the shoulder, dragged him behind him, and then raised the bolt gun to point to the other side, right hand The sleeves of the military uniform were broken in an instant, and the plasma cannon grew out of the palm of his hand, aiming at the other side.

"Stay back, unless you want to eat bullets, okay?" Vito said, the plasma shining in his hand lit up the street, and instantly frightened the alien supporters on the side, preventing them from approaching Himself and Kane, but their other companion was not so lucky. Duncan fell to the ground, surrounded by alien sympathizers from other places, and punched and kicked.

   Duncan fell to the ground, whimpering and hugging his abdomen tightly. He was severely beaten. Kane looked in Duncan's direction, while Vito was, as always, more decisive and direct.

   "If you don't have a drink, or have sex, or anything, okay? Because if you don't leave, your companions will have to use brooms to send you home."

Vito said that he aimed the plasma directly at those people, and made sure that when he fired, the plasma would not affect Duncan on the ground, but Kane also knew that if Vito fired, the street would be destroyed immediately. It turned into a battlefield, and Kane was in big trouble, not to mention the political conflicts that would result afterwards, just now, Kane wants to make his stinky skin intact, and return to the camp properly has become a luxury up.

"Everyone calm down! I am Commissar Caphas Kane. Before there is more bloodshed, everyone put down your weapons!" Kane shouted with the momentum of a political commissar. When making a speech, the whole regiment can hear it without the need for a loudspeaker, so the speech is very loud.

This seemed to have deterred some of the alien sympathizers. The Tau supporter whose face was painted blue stopped. He was startled at first, and then looked at his companion. The two looked at each other and then slowly looked at Kane, one of them reached behind his back and grabbed something.

Vito noticed the movement, narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the blue-faced man, who frowned and pulled out his hand from behind, revealing the long tube-shaped thing from behind his waist. Vito noticed that A cold light flickered on the metal back shell, and suddenly, a claw grabbed his shoulder from behind.

  Kane's voice attracted another figure who was taller than everyone present. He walked up, and with his other hand, he grabbed the alien sympathizer who was punching and kicking poor Duncan.

   "Stop it all, is this what the Greatest Good Dao wants?" It said in its own weird Gothic language accompanied by the ticking sound of sizing up, and all the alien sympathizers around stopped their hands when they saw him.

  Kane looked at the thing. It had a bird-like curved beak on its face, and long feathers growing back on its face. It was tall but had bent legs.

"Kroot." Vito said in a low voice. As the judge of the Alien Order, of course he recognized the thing immediately. Kane carefully looked at the weird alien, it was wearing titanium The breastplate of the clan, with some kind of paint still on the face.

   Is that the Kroot? Kane once again regretted that he should have read the bulletin board seriously. He knew of the Kroots that they were the only ones who killed his parents, so he was sent to the Academy of Loyal Heirs. Yes, this is Cayphas Kane's story.

"Are you all right?" the Kroot asked, Vito nodded to Kane, and then the latter cleared his throat, "Ahem, we are all right, but, your friends, it seems Not so good."

Kane glanced at the alien sympathizer whose head had been blown off the ground, and the Kroot started ticking again, "This is really a regrettable conflict, but I hope that this is the end, the Tau, I don’t want to start a war.”

"Ah, I hope so too, ah." Kane said, his eyes involuntarily looked at the chainsaw sword on the ground, which was the only weapon he could protect him in progress. He was not like Vito who single-handedly used A greenskin can be killed with one fist.

   (Vito later stated that my hands are made of meat, well, at least one)

   "Hahaha, please, political commissar, then you are your weapon, and you should not abandon him. Just like the old Kroot saying, a soldier can lose his hand, but he cannot lose his weapon."

"Haha, what a wise saying." Kane said, quickly picked up the chainsaw sword, put his finger on the accelerator trigger, and looked around vigilantly. Vito stood behind him, leaning his shoulder on his back. On the ground, with his arms hanging down, the plasma cannon was still flashing, as if he was about to pick a bad guy and blast him.

"My name is Sha Yi, what about yours?" the Kroot asked in that unproficient Gothic, Kane cleared his throat, and maintained the calmness that a political commissar should have, "I am Kefa Commissar Skaine, behind this is "

   "Major Almennon Divas." Vito added himself, and nodded to Kane. The latter understood the gesture and then turned to the Kroot, and the alien sympathizers around him whispered.

"That's Kane? I heard that he is the emperor's illegitimate son. Horus and the others rebelled because they were jealous of him!" "Hey, **** you, don't be frightened by these guys!" "But I I heard that he once overturned greenskins and Tyranids by himself, and that monster is said to be as tall as a building!"

The alien sympathizers chatted together, while the Kroot just nodded, "I've heard of you, Caphas Kane, I hope that your reputation is as wise and understanding as the rumors say. Satisfactory?"

Sha Yi obviously wants to find a better word, but his vocabulary for human language is obviously very limited, which is not enough for him to say any better words of wisdom, "Tau people, I hope you can understand, this one An accident, not what we want to see, we want to make peace with the Empire, which is good for both parties."

   No, and you quietly infiltrated the planet? It is a typical behavior of aliens. Any citizen of the empire like Kane will understand that any promises made by the aliens are lies, and anything they say cannot be trusted, and there is no sign at all.

But Kane kept smiling. He didn't mind fighting with the Tau, but it would be more appropriate when he was surrounded by a group of people, which is definitely not the case now. "Of course, the Star Militarum has not Ordered to intervene, so far everything is a matter of Terrell Munda's internal affairs."

"Yes, the same is true for the Tau tribe. I'm very happy that we can reach a consensus." Sha Yi said, with a wave of his big arm, he made the alien supporter he was dragging fly backward with super strength, and then He looked at Duncan who was sobbing on the ground.

"He needs proper treatment. We, the Tau, are happy to help. This is in line with the best way." The bird alien said with a ticking sound as a consonant, which sounded particularly weird. Kane didn't know what his mother was. The Higher Good, the idea of ​​aliens, is, as always, difficult to understand by loyal citizens of the Empire.

  But Kane definitely doesn’t seem to be drilling into it, especially into this alien den. He almost lost his life twice during the day, and Kane has not forgotten it.

"No need, we will take him back to our station, and the medical officer will help." "It's understandable, so now, you'd better leave, before more accidents happen." "This sentence, said It makes sense."

Vito finally said, talking about the plasma cannon on his arm, he closed his arms and stepped forward to help Duncan up, Kane also followed up and lifted his other shoulder, Sha Yi signaled to the sympathizers, Immediately they gave way to let Kane and Vito pass.

"No, Bell, I don't need help, let them leave alive, but tonight is not without gain, bring me that blue-faced guy." Vito said suddenly, Kane found out In his ears, there are tiny earphones that go deep into the ear holes. It seems that Kane was wrong before. He frowned, and after looking at Vito, he found him smiling. At this moment, Kane realized that he didn’t just come to drink tonight. .

   At the end of the other side of the street, after the alien sympathizers bid farewell to each other and dispersed, the man with his face painted in blue walked to the end of the silent alley. He touched the blood at the corner of his mouth and showed a disgusted expression.

"Fucking imperial dogs, born of corpse kings and bitches, when the time comes, I'm going to punch holes in your heads." He cursed and walked around, just as he was about to walk out of the alley and onto the brightly lit main Moments before the street, a giant hand reached out from the shadows behind him, and a face with blood-red glass eyes lit up in it, illuminating the surface of the surrounding armor.

"Sicarius, have you caught it?" The voice in the helmet sounded indistinctly, approaching the blue-faced man, and the face with the cockscomb helmet appeared on the edge of the dim light, "Did you hear that? We I'm inviting you, I hope you won't refuse."
