Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 76 Meeting
In the end, Calvin finally met the Governor of the Empire, Lord Hailan, who had been only heard of but not seen.

Not long after they continued to penetrate into the de facto "royal palace" of the Hive City, Calvin saw him at a palace gate leading to the core hall.

Or "it" is fine.

The current Hailan has completely lost any trace of human characteristics.

Even if the huge body is sitting slumped by the door and sleeping soundly, its height is more than 5 meters by visual inspection.

Dark green skin and brown antlers are the only colors on its body.

A bloated body is not so much a person as it is a rockery made of fat accumulation.

Compared with its fat body, the small head and short lower limbs look ridiculous.

It is like a lonely child, leaning against the huge marble courtyard pillars of the palace gate and sleeping soundly.

Holding the bent and deformed copper lamppost in his arms, and the strange debris piled up like the bird's nest on the antlers on the right side of his head, made the whole scene look weird and funny.

But Calvin couldn't laugh, and neither could his comrades.

In Calvin's knowledge of demonology, Hailan in this form is no different physically from the chaotic champion "Great Unclean One" who is most favored by the legendary king of corruption to rule the disease.

The only thing that can prove that Hailan has not yet become a demon is that it has not yet grown to a height of more than ten meters and the nature of power that can spread disease and death in a large area just by walking.

"We are late after all." Calvin thought in his heart.

No matter how bad the scenes and details described in the voice in the document are, Calvin still has a glimmer of illusion about saving Hailan, a five-star young man in the empire who was pushed to this point step by step by fate.

But when such Hailan appeared in front of him, he could only helplessly recognize the reality.

The former Hailan can't come back; now in front of them, there is only a follower of the Lord of Corruption wearing the cloak of Hailan's soul.

The gray knights could not suppress the sound of their footsteps.

The people's whereabouts had awakened Hailan who was sleeping far away.

He took a deep breath, and stretched his two plump arms outward.

The copper pillar on his shoulders slid to this side with his movements, so he hurriedly stopped and hugged the copper pillar with his half-stretched hands in embarrassment.

Only then did he bother to look up at Calvin and his party.

"Canned food again? Ah, gray..." He muttered in his mouth, and then he was frightened by the second half of his sentence.

He didn't know what the group of Astartes in front of him meant.

It's just that the observation results under the instinctive psychic vision when he just woke up are too terrifying.

The 21 Astartes walking towards each other are all psykers!
What the hell!When did think tanks become so prevalent?

When I was still in the Astral Army, the Astartes battle group that could occasionally cooperate did not necessarily have a think tank!

It touched its chest, where a newly healed scar was.

This was a great gift from the think tank in the yellow can before it died, and it can still clearly remember how terrifying that pale psychic lightning was.

"I will die." After he had just killed an Astartes, when he rushed in front of the think tank and saw the lightning in the opponent's hand, Hailan clearly knew by intuition what would happen when the lightning hit him.

After all, it has not yet reached a complete contract with the subspace.

If it dies this time, then it is really dead, the kind that is transparent.

Fortunately, it still had the blessing of a loving father, and one of the only remaining two blessings spontaneously blocked this mortal attack for Hailan.

It also took advantage of the moment when the other party was stunned, and crushed the other party's head with the lamppost in its hand...

But what kind of battle group is this in front of us?
Even the Astartes have to be reasonable, right?
How come everyone is a psionic master?

Is there any reason?
Is there any more royal law?
Can you run?It is estimated that it will be difficult.

From the observation results from his psychic vision, the per capita configuration of psykers in this group of people in front of him has made him just want to avoid the edge first.

Among them, Calvin, the tallest one, had nothing to do with the humanoid creature in front of Hailan's vision.

What is a silvery, icy sun!

Just looking at the light it emits already makes Hailan feel painful.

The power it relies on for survival is like a snowman under the sun in early spring under the icy light. It is irresistible and has nowhere to escape. It can only wait for the moment of melting.

And so is reality.

As Calvin pushed aside the footsteps of everyone who came forward alone, the green creeps under Hailan's feet, which had relied on its power to multiply and spread vigorously, seemed to have encountered nitrogen-inactivated culture medium in the laboratory. The psionic energy emitted unconsciously was corrected to the original inorganic gray and then withered and died.

"Are you going to die? It's good, anyway, I'll take revenge..." Hailan thought.

Then it suddenly thought of something that made it regain its desire to survive. While shrinking its body behind the pillar of the palace gate, it shouted loudly to Calvin and others:

"You can't kill me! I can't die!"

Calvin and the others stopped when they heard the sound.

To be reasonable, when meeting the demons of their group, some ran away immediately, some resisted immediately, and some even opened their mouths at the first moment and finally stood up to resist.

This is very common, but this is the first time I have seen demons who neither run nor resist, trying to reason with them...

Calvin didn't have so much combat experience, he just felt from the information he got along the way that no matter what, the empire owed this guy in front of him, even if it was just a remnant of that person in a certain sense, but Calvin was still willing to let it Say your last words before you die.

Calvin raised the screen on his left arm and signaled to it: "Say your last words. If you want to say that you are wronged, I already know from these documents. I will find justice for you after I finish here, but For the safety of more citizens of the empire, now I can only ask you to go on the road."

"Go on the road? Die?" It seemed to be stimulated by something.

Hailan came out from behind the pillar in front of him.

"I can die, my revenge has been avenged. I also know my current state, I must die."

It threw away the lamp post in its hand to show it was harmless, then turned around and walked towards the interior of Miyagi.

"But before I die, I need to show you something."

He waved to the gray knights as he walked:

"Come on, hurry up. While I'm awake."
