Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 121 Relief and Answer

A solid fortress is never breached from the outside, and its initial cracks often come from within itself.

The same goes for the soul.

Calvin's soul was hit so hard at this moment, and the denial of the meaning of his own existence made this hard soul that shouldn't have any flaws cry out in mourning.

Ice-blue rain is a symbol of tears in the spiritual world, and a sad heart directly affects every aspect of this world.

God and his petitioners are always closely connected. Under such a vision, the residents of the city of the crown in Calvin's soul could not remain indifferent.

When the sky darkened, when the rain fell from the sky, every citizen of Crown City stopped what they were doing at this moment, and looked at the eyes full of tears that they were also inspired by. above the dome.

The crowd came out of the house, regardless of gender, age or age.Whether it is the countryside in the fields or the streets in the city walls, these souls who are grateful to Calvin appear in the open space, praying to their gods.

"Please forgive us for our original sin, please forgive us for our greed. Please stick to your original intention, please see the beauty of human nature. Holy! Calvin! Gods in a distant land, please don't give up the entire human race for the sins in front of you Destiny!"

Countless prayers rose from the ground and spread to the high sky.

"No, no. I didn't give up. I didn't dislike you. I know that there are beautiful things in human nature, and I know that the haze is just a small side. I will learn to face it. I know, I always knew..."

Calvin, who was sobbing, felt the prayers of these suffering souls in his soul, and he didn't want them to worry about him, so he explained incoherently.

The prayers became more intense, and they could feel the sun reappearing in the sky driving away the dark clouds in front of them.

And the people or gods they worry about are far stronger than they imagined.

But this made them even more fanatical: their god was not a hard stone, not a greedy abyss, not a reflection of nothingness, not an ancient law.

He is a living person, he has flesh and blood; he will be happy, and he will be sad.

He will become optimistic again under their comfort, which makes them finally feel the meaning of being needed again after losing everything.

"Holy! Holy!"

"Holy! Holy!"

Enthusiastic voices kept coming to Calvin's ears, making this simple soldier a little embarrassed.

After all, when a 24-hour all-weather personal flattering halo is worn on your head, you will also be embarrassed.

"Okay, okay. You guys are busy, I slipped away..."

Calvin, who couldn't stay any longer, quickly broke away from the autism of his soul, for fear that if he stayed for a while longer, his brain would become a tool for frying eggs due to shame. The shape may not be very similar, but the temperature is estimated to be is enough.

Calvin, whose consciousness returned to reality, opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was Yule's worried face.

"Okay, okay, where there is light, there will naturally be darkness. This shouldn't be your reason to deny light." He comforted Calvin in this way.

"Yes, I understand. I understand..." Calvin, who was relieved, was a little embarrassed, and he was apologetic for his immaturity.

Yes, he should have known, or his life history should have learned this lesson long ago.

Isn't true love the same as seeing all its shortcomings and ugliness, but still maintaining love?
Will he throw himself into chaos because of a momentary grievance?Won't!
Will he give up his ideals because of a temporary setback and turn to serve the enemy chieftain?Won't!
Will he give up his mission, give up his father, give up his people, bow his head to chaos, and indulge his ambitions because of the demonic words of one or two people?Won't! (I didn't reflect anyone, you realize it yourself.)
Yu Le looked at the young man in front of him with relief, and the recovery of the other party's will was faster than he expected.

His mind is also unexpectedly perfect without any natural flaws.

This is so rare, especially in this world dominated by darkness and despair, it is as precious as pearls!

Just from this point of view, he wanted to thank the young man's parents.

Ability and talent do affect a person's upper limit, but the flawless personality brought by the original family can make people withstand the scouring of fate again and again in the face of the torrent of fate.

In contrast, Yule prefers the latter.

From his point of view, it is true that not every gray knight needs to undergo such a test, nor does every gray knight need to know the dark side of these human empires.

But Calvin was different, he was not a simple warrior.He has a higher future, and more people have greater expectations for him. ,

Therefore, his mind will never allow any such gaps that can be offset by exhortations and explanations in advance; his will must not go to extremes because of one or two such things, so as to give those dirty existences any possibility. Take the opportunity.

In the history of the empire, there are enough examples of young eagles like him who were supposed to soar in the sky, but because of various accidents and lack of cognition, they were finally brought to despair and destruction by chaos.

He couldn't allow the person in front of him who pinned the expectations of the entire Gray Knights to repeat the same mistakes.

"In a better mood? Then let's talk about things on the ground." Yule continued the topic just now and said to Calvin.

"Okay." Calvin, who was relieved, savored the details of the whole incident again, and he found that the key person in this entanglement was not on the scene.

Whether it is the high-level officials in the Inquisition Chamber who initiated this conspiracy and gave the front-line figure—the Inquisitor Erlanti the right to support, or the Chapter Leader of the Goliath Chapter who can really decide the fate of the Chapter, they are all hidden in the Behind the whole incident, they did not reveal their faces.

What's going on with the Goliath battle group?Would they submit to the Inquisition because of these two companies of Astartes?

"Where is their motivation? How can they be sure to do this?" Calvin followed this logic to find the crux of the problem.

"Because the current situation of the Goliath battle group is not so good." Yule looked at the distant Feldman 4 planet, and slowly said what he knew.

In the Goliath battle group, these two companies are really very important among the troops that can be used at the moment.

They just experienced a major setback a hundred years ago.

During a space hulk exploration operation in conjunction with the Forge World of Gria, they were ambushed by an entire ship of Genestealers.

Under heavy siege, they finally retrieved the mission items needed by the Mechanicus—an ancient STC chip and accompanying equipment.

But the price was heavy. In order to ensure the smooth transfer of items, they lost their core strength, including the head of the station and the entire elite veterans of the company, in the post-break operation.

If it wasn't for the chief think tank being held back by something at that time, the normal inheritance of their battle group would have almost been buried there.

"So?" Calvin asked.

"So, as a product of extreme army building, after staying away from their mother regiment, the Blood Angels, they finally chose the Storm Star Field to make their home, and they didn't have much wealth in the first place.

Under the heavy setback this time, except for the recruit company, they can use less than 5 companies.And there, half of their troops are now staying. "Yule pointed to Feldman 4, which was already visible in the distance, and explained to Calvin.

"This way..." Calvin finally got a glimpse of the whole picture of the two parties involved in this incident, which runs through most of the empire from an overall perspective.
