Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 117 The Unexpected Truth

"Indeed, you should have an impression of this battle group."

As the executive captain of the last SATA galaxy mission, Tabers is familiar with Calvin's experience.

"After your last mission was completed, it was the power armor and other equipment that Master Aidan notified their people to recover afterwards." Tabers replied.

"Ha! It's really them!" Calvin almost jumped up. It's fine if others don't know. As the bearer of the souls of billions of people in his mind, he is thinking about these guys all the time!
"You know them?" Yule was a little puzzled by Calvin's obvious reaction. Logically speaking, he should have no chance to meet the fighters of this group.

"Of course, between us... well, there is a little story. It's not important, give me their information, I hope to understand them as much as possible, combat mode, customary tactics, equipment, and their gene seeds , I want to know."

Calvin answered Captain Jule's question with an attitude that made Judge Rhine feel dangerous.

He felt that it was necessary to give this special arbiter a clear warning. The other party's body shape, which was obviously different from the height of ordinary Astartes, and the gorgeous Terminator power armor on his body, let him know that this young man had nothing to do with the Gray Knight. Must have extraordinary influence.

"I need to warn you! Young arbiter! Any wealth in the empire belongs to the emperor and the entire human empire! You have no right to use or destroy it without permission!"

"Got it! I promise not to do it first." Calvin replied cleanly.

But such an answer made Rhine even more worried.

He looked at Yule, who had the highest military rank present: "So about the assistance this time?"

"We agree in principle." Captain Yule took up the judge's question, but he was not completely sure.

"But since your preset target is two Astartes, we require independent command. We must have the right to fire directly without applying for it when necessary."

This is the bottom line condition given by Company Commander Yu Le. If you can talk about it, you can talk about it.

"...Okay." For this reason, Judge Rhine didn't have any reason to refuse, but thinking of the arbitrator's words just now, he still insisted on emphasizing his position:

"I will keep a close eye on your every word and deed. If there are unnecessary casualties, I also reserve the right to trace back."

"This is your right, and I have no objection. Another room has been prepared for you, and you can go to rest. I will send someone to call you when you get there."

Yule issued a tactful order to the judge to expel the guest.

And Rhine was indeed running all the way without a chance to rest, so he left the bridge without saying anything more.

"Can we tell now? Where did their seeds come from?" Calvin asked Yule again after the judge left.

"It can be said, but I may have to confirm another thing with you first." Yule said.

"You say?" Calvin replied.

"Are you trying to find an opportunity to hold those malicious fighters accountable for the civilians on SATA [-]?" Yule asked, looking into his eyes.

"...Yes." Calvin replied affirmatively.

"Then I have to say, you may be disappointed." Yule said firmly.

"Why? You don't support me?" Calvin asked.

"Of course not, but you may need to know this fact first: In a sense, these malicious fighters exist independently as a company. You can't blame this company for what happened to that company."

Yule explained patiently.

"I can not understand what you say?"

Calvin couldn't understand at all.And Jules also understood his doubts, he patiently preached to Calvin:
"It's a, well, very specific Chapter. They don't have a single source of gene-seed."

"Then?"

"Their establishment and second founding of the army are the products of some transitional needs. And most of their seeds come from the seeds left by the loyalists in the legions who defected."

"Then?"

"They are the outcasts of the empire, and a complete supply has never been issued to them since their birth."

"……Then."

"They use companies as units, use different seeds, and perform different tasks. Apart from nominally belonging to a battle group, there is almost no connection."

"Then?" Hearing this, Calvin almost understood what Yule meant, but he still didn't believe it.

"The remains of the company you saw on SATA No. [-] are all members of that company. They have paid the price for their actions. No one in that company survived." Yule looked at Calvin , slowly told the truth.

"That's why the Tribunal didn't pursue them after the fact."

Tibers had been silent for a long time, and after Yule finished speaking, he quietly added this sentence.

He made a summary of all the combat behaviors and external behavior of this battle group since the establishment of the army:

"These malicious fighters may indeed be a group of villains. But if you understand their origins, then think about the attitude of the empire towards them. It is not difficult for you to understand why they are so inclined to self-interested combat style. They are indeed in the In the past years, each has its own crimes. But if you want to use the matter of SATA No. [-] to hold these malicious fighters here accountable, it is indeed a kind of anger."

"...Where's their chapter leader? They are always responsible for this?"

"When communicating with the outside world, each of their company commanders has the identity of the station commander."

"..." Calvin was silent.It is somewhat difficult for him to understand the existence of a war group like malicious warriors, or what is even more difficult for him to accept is the empire's bottomless operation in the establishment of a war group.

How could such a battle group exist?Not even a unified seed?

Are they a pure hodgepodge?
Or has it been positioned as a consumable since the founding of the army?

They don't even have a unified gene seed, so how can they have unified tactics and equipment requirements with such a structure?

How did Terra resupply these malevolent warriors?Can't do it at all?
So, there was never a supply, right?
This is why he saw on the SATA star, like a nesting doll on a malicious warrior, with at most all kinds of accessories from the third generation to the sixth generation of Mark.

At that time, he thought that these malicious fighters had some strange proclivities.Now I finally understand, they really are, they can't even get a full set of standard power armor...

"So, that company is all the malicious fighters born from that seed?" Calvin still asked unwillingly.

"Yes, their fifth company. According to the materials recorded by the trial court, the gene seed came from the Iron Warriors. This company-based genetic inheritance has completely paid the price for its own greed and tyranny, and will permanently destroy it. I died on that planet." Yule said with some seriousness.

"All?" Calvin confirmed again.

"Everyone, including the pharmacist, they don't have a second pharmacist. All 98 people, including all of them, died on that planet."

"What the hell is it called!" Calvin couldn't control his emotions, and he clenched his hands into fists and punched the wall.

The loud noise and the cracked and deformed steel plate made him regain his sanity a little bit, but he still couldn't let go of the depression in his heart.

"This group of beasts, are they so cheap?" Calvin said bitterly.

He hated the failure of these vicious fighters, which made him have no chance to carry out his revenge;

But it is even more hated for those who made the appearance of the Malicious Warriors, the Chapter Astartes that was clearly created for attrition, and they are the main culprits of this tragedy.
