Warhammer: I live under the watchful eyes of the gods

Chapter 214 Encountering Constantine at the Wolf Hall
The dull sound of the engine echoed in the quiet rear cabin of the Stormbird.

After closing the gate, brothers Fu Xu and Luke stood at the entrance of Stormbird like two lone wolves.

There was no communication, which made the atmosphere in the entire Stormbird extremely depressing.

Of course, this kind of repression will not affect Karl's observation of the two brothers Fuxu and Luke.

(It's that damned distortion again)
Yes, the Space Wolves also have what is known as the "Wolf Curse".

The gene fragment known as the "Canis Helix" (Canis Helix) not only gave them further physical strength, but also increased the risk of causing them to fall into a bloodthirsty state.

This defect is essentially not much different from the flesh and blood distortion of the Thousand Sons.

The only difference is that the way they deal with this defect is not like the Thousand Sons, using psionic energy to suppress these ancient "werewolf-like aberrations".

Although this method of purely relying on willpower does not have the elegance and convenience of psionic power, according to the results, this method is effective in most cases.

This is also part of the death guard's previous research on the "7-day trial".
As far as the internal relationship of the entire Space Wolves is concerned, it is more like a large tribe than a legion.

This can be clearly seen from their establishment calling "wolf master", "wolf paw leader" and so on.

Compared with the battles of the Thousand Sons, the wild wolves pay more attention to one wa...

As Leman Russ once said - let the will shape the mind.

Therefore, this kind of thinking of doing what you say is also well passed down by the wolf cubs below.

But then again, Leman Russ was not a fool.

Everything he did and the attitude he showed were only in line with the character of the pack of wolf cubs recruited by Fenris in his hometown.

Just like Horus sighed a long time ago.

When there are no so-called tribal members around, it is easy to feel the aura on him that is not inferior to Horus himself.

Belongs to the cruel person who speaks human words when he sees people, and raises his claws when he sees hell.

It can only be said that it is fortunate that Leman Russ is not a pure reckless man, otherwise Karl who came to report at this moment would have been beaten into a scumbag.

From the monitoring screen on the inside of the Stormbird, the bottom of the huge battleship below the Hrafinkel was gradually encroaching on the surrounding darkness.

Off-white is the main color of the Hrafinkel, exuding a cold and determined aura from the surface of the hull, and its huge size demonstrates its strength and deterrence.

The towering towers and the huge forts are arranged in a staggered manner, and the outwardly protruding macro-cannon muzzles and the inwardly recessed bunker cabins and fish cabin launching ports are alternately arranged on both sides of the battleship.

And this time, the Stormbird, who had a direct order from the wolf king, obviously wouldn't return to the lower port where it started.

And the fuselage gradually pulled up after the Stormbird also confirmed Carl's idea.

Beyond the slightly bloated weapon array on the port side of the hull, the huge building complex on the upper part of the Hrafinkel was completely presented in front of Karl's eyes.

Unlike looking at it from a distance before, only when you are really in it can you feel the sense of size that was previously covered by the distance.

From any point of view, leaving aside the super blueprints of the golden age that currently seem unrealistic in the mind, this glorious queen-class super battleship named Hrafinkel is half of the overlord in the universe.

And as the distance from the bridge approached, the wild aura inherited from Fenris gradually became more and more obvious.

The mini port decorated with fangs is like a giant mouth waiting for the next prey.

Feeling the uncoordinated slight weightlessness due to the inability of the gravity field system to maintain perfect calibration during the docking process, Karl knew that he had come to the inside of the battleship.

"Zizzle"

It was the sound of the electric engine trying to open the Stormbird's rear hatch.

It was completely different from the busy ports he had seen before.

There are no annoying loading machines or servants in this mini-berth, usually used for "receiving VIPs".

Two rows of wolf guards also wearing wolf hair have been waiting here for a long time.

Combined with the dark background deliberately created in the Grafinkel itself, the scene presented to Karl at this moment adds a bit of depressing feeling.

"Wolves will devour anyone who spreads lies."

That was the advice given by Fu Xu, who was following Karl.

Of course, it's more of a warning than an advice.

After all, the thick and rough decoration style here has already reminded everyone who stepped here-wolves hate those clown-like tricks,

In addition, although the Thousand Sons and the Space Wolves often had to fight side by side in the early stages of the Great Crusade, the Thousand Sons who liked to research often came late, left early, and rebelliously demanded the protection of certain cultural relics that the wolves thought must be destroyed.

So in general, the relationship between the two parties can't be said to be good, it can only be said that if they meet and don't start a fight, it's considered a face for the emperor.

Therefore, it seems to be a good choice to use a traitorous Thousand Sons to eliminate the fire.

And this explains the attitude of the wolves towards Karl at the moment.

After following the "welcome" queues lined up by the wolf guards on both sides for a few turns, Karl and his party finally came to the cabin called the Hall of the Great Wolf.

On the head wolf hall, almost all the wolf lords from each Dalian company in the entire space wolf were sitting.

Behind the hall door decorated with fangs, there is an aroma of food.

Apparently, a possible pre-war party had just been held.

And Carl, who was pushed up, was the last "dish" of the banquet.

Around the huge circular hall, there were several wolf masters and a large number of wolf guards sitting upright.

If it was normal, they might have a banquet while admiring the last excuses or "dying struggles" of these traitors.

But this time was different, besides Leman Russ, there was another important person sitting here.

That is the can of corn (Custodians) who oversees the mission of the Space Wolves - Constantine Waldo

Coincidentally, it might be the aftermath of perfect luck. Anyway, this time Constantine, who had no interest in this kind of banquet, was attracted by the upcoming "trial".

So the moment Karl arrived, Constantine glanced over with his sharp eyes,

It's a bad feeling to be scanned.

But at least this time he didn't have the feeling of being seen through.

Constantine's pure golden power armor, even under the dim lighting in the Wolf Hall, still gave the imperial guards the posture they should have.

On this trip, his most important task is to ensure that the arrest warrant for Magnus will be executed.

It's not that the Emperor suspects that the Space Wolves will release the water, but that the Emperor wants to ensure that there will be no accidents during the execution of this arrest warrant.

Of course, the above analysis is all Constantine's wishful thinking.

What he is most concerned about now is the progress of the execution of the entire arrest warrant.

Because for every minute wasted here, the seemingly endless battle in the webway would take the lives of more Custodians and Sisters of Silence.

This is also a weakening of the emperor.

At least Constantine couldn't tolerate this happening.

But at this moment, he has no intention of interfering with the wolf king's disposal of Karl.

This is not Terra, he must always pay attention to his identity on this trip, what he has to do is to ensure the completion of the task, not to completely freeze his relationship with Russ because of some unimportant details. (even though it wasn't good)
Look away from the only variable in the audience - Constantine.

Immediately, that stalwart figure jumped into Karl's sight.

A signature brown-blond hair, paired with a Seiko power armor - Armor Elavagar (Armour Elavagar)
Without any complicated modifications, Leman Russ has already expressed his meaning simply by relying on the resolute cheeks with well-defined lines.

"Karl Price, Izekyr Abbadan, I would like to hear your explanations for the accusations of treason shown earlier."

Automatically ignoring Kaya, who was obviously a head shorter, Russ directly moved the topic to the main topic.

After all, for him, time is not enough to be squandered recklessly.

Unlike holding a banquet during the subspace voyage before, every second occupied now will affect the next plan of the entire fleet.

After all, before hunting, the alpha wolf must make sure that he will not fall into the traps carefully laid out by the hunters.

Hearing this, Karl did not make any unnecessary excuses.

He knew very well that now he was just following Ruth's wishes.

But this is also a necessary process. Only when you clearly state your position and the crisis that the wild wolves are about to face, will Kaya's subsequent "Emperor card psychic power" be convincing enough.

Walked forward silently, connected the storage device that had been prepared to the stereo projector, and then the pictures that had been recorded one after another began to be played.

= A Paladin guard is pushing the prepared ground-based macro artillery shells into the huge underground barrel =
Void shield groups are being opened one after another, and set to the ultimate overload mode.

The libraries had long since been emptied, and the whole of Prospero was preparing for war.

When the video played to this point, there was already a burst of sighs from around.

All the wolf masters present showed sharp eyes—it meant that they were analyzing the authenticity of this video.

Then the screen changed and came to the scene of the battle between Karl and Ahriman.

Regarding Karl's terrifying strength in the battle, the wolf masters ignited a desire to challenge the strong.

This is a "trial" after all, and the way a sinner is judged on Fenris involves a duel.

As for Ahriman who was fully fired, Constantine didn't believe it anyway.

Although he already knew the result of the trial in advance, the strength that Karl showed in the false picture made him feel unshakable.

It’s also troublesome to be reasonable if you cheat, okay, brother.

With so many guns and bombs, Constantine asked himself that he might not be able to handle it.

Especially under the blessing of Ahriman's terrifying prophecy, those unavoidable explosive bombs are the nightmare of any enemy.

But you are an ordinary little red can, why can you carry those explosive bombs?

With your "loyalty" to the weird existence in the subspace?
Anyway, just seeing this, Constantine was already not interested.

Either it's a fake, or it's a powerful corrupter.

He has seen a lot of this stuff in the webway, but with this level of strength, it is still impossible to defeat the Primarch.

Looking aside at the expressionless Ruth, Constantine relaxed.

At least the sky is falling and there is a tall man holding it up.

And soon, after the battle with Ahriman was over.

The battle between Karl and Carlofis caused a thousand waves in the hall.

Everyone, including Constantine, set their sights on the "Judger" who had exerted astonishing power.

It was precisely because of this that Kaya finally stepped into the sight of these giants.

Who would have thought that such a terrifying artifact would be in the hands of a mortal?

But even so, the silent Ruth still didn't speak.

He seemed to be waiting for something.

And in this silence, the picture came to the end.

A fleet of the Thousand Sons is hiding in a nebula near Prospero.

This kind of "distrust" behavior, which can be called lore, immediately caused a thousand waves in the wolf hall.

But these waves are actually just a short-term vent.

Videos can't be faked.

To make matters worse, Magnus sent another message before that.

What Ruth was waiting for was the moment when Karl finished his so-called defense.

= A traitor who defected to Chaos, after knocking down Ahriman who was going to capture him, he used witchcraft to lure Calofis to fall, and finally escaped from Prospero's attempt to use forged false information to provoke the two legions during this special period The relationship between them, even the witch next to him can imitate the emperor's spiritual energy =
This is the unexpected news that Ruth received when he met Constantine.

It seems that everything has confirmed Karl's identity as a traitor, but Constantine found a bug in it.

If Magnus really repented sincerely, then why did he use this forbidden psionic technique again to spread the word?

Isn't this slapping yourself in the face?
Therefore, Constantine only half believed the "forecast" shared by Ruth and Constantine.

"Do you have any other evidence?"

Facing Karl who seemed to be speechless, Ruth issued an ultimatum.

The patience of wolves is limited.

But to be honest, after reading the message that Tzeentch sent in advance, even Karl felt a little bit pained.

He didn't expect that his trump card—the emperor's psionic aura on Kaya's body was also written on it.

This led to his originally prepared turnaround cards being directly classified as "unreliable evidence".

(How to do?)

In the face of this exquisite deadlock set by Tzeentch, it seems that all struggles will no longer be meaningless.

But at this moment, a golden object jumped into his sight.

Apollonian Spear

It was a weapon given to Constantine by the Emperor, and its enormous psionic power allowed the user to see the "truth" of the person he hurt.
