The Emperor’s Angel of Death - Vol 2 Chapter 1612
【The Emperor’s Angel of Death】【】
All seats, benches and unnecessary furnishings have been removed from the huge church of Victory Scar, and it is now crowded with more than two thousand Space Marines.
The golden icon of the Emperor towers high under the dome, surrounded by countless angels and garlands, overlooking his invincible army. Although this army used to be millions, now it is only a few thousand people, but their inheritance of will and strength. The determination has not changed.
There are not only the warriors of the Alliance of Suffering, but also the newly added Imperial Fist Company and the Ravenwing Company of the Dark Angels. The warriors of different colors and symbols are lined up neatly, standing like statues. Mosaic lattice composed of many colors.
Bahram was just an inconspicuous member of the team. He swallowed and suddenly felt that the back of his neck became dry and itchy, probably because he hadn’t bathed for too long and didn’t sweat much.
Standing with him was Talos, who was quite abrupt in the crowd, because his height was already a little taller than the average space warrior. Fortunately, the other regiments were also a little taller, so he was not allowed to Particularly prominent.
Just as everyone was waiting, the Lord finally appeared.
Astral Knights Chapter Commander, Supreme Lord Commander of the Maelstrom Expeditionary Force, Supreme Wartime Commander of the Alliance of Suffering, Soshyan Alexei, in the Honor Guard and a number of Chapter Leaders, senior officers and other commanders , and a waiter who held the eagle flag granted by the high lord came on the scene.
Soshyan then left the team, walked forward slowly, stood still behind the podium, and looked directly into each other’s eyes when looking at people.
As early as two days ago, all the warriors knew what happened, and everyone was shocked and talked about it. Most of them were complaining about the magical arrangement of the High Lord.
However, the Astral Knights are still very proud and proud of their Chapter Master becoming the Supreme Lord Commander who is close to the position of Warmaster, because since the Horus Heresy, few Space Marines can lead the Empire. Expeditions of various levels.
The last similar one was during the Badab War, when the Red Scorpion’s Chapter Master Virant Ordiz temporarily took over the supreme command from the Grand Inquisitor to Gaet Jandis Farion.
For Bahram, being able to participate in such an expedition is both exciting and a little nervous
“Brothers, warriors.”
When Soshyan speaks, his voice is deep, and his tone is just right, the two are polished to the perfect balance.
“The Emperor’s soldiers.”
These words, amplified by the microphone, echoed in the dome of the church like thunder, deafening and calm, full of charm and faith.
“We are at the beginning of a great war, and soon we will face the evil enemies who go against the will of the emperor and put many human worlds in the abyss of heresy and unbelief, who, as we all know, once fought with us. The same is true of Astartes who are loyal to the Emperor and humans, but for some selfish and depraved reasons, these traitors are trying to separate themselves! Turn Astartes’s ambition to protect humanity into an infinite desire for power! The purpose of this expedition is to shatter their last delusion, save the people in the maelstrom, restore order, and bring light to these worlds that have been lost for many years.”

Soshyan paused and looked into the distance, as if gazing intently at Xie Chong in his speech, staring at the black-hearted king across the distant void.
Of course, the pause also gave the audience time to chew on what he had just said.
Soshyan is not a speaker, but his language is always persuasive. When others hear him, they know that he believes in himself, and the listener should be like him, that strong. There are certain qualities in beliefs that focus the listener’s mind on his goals.
Bahram was also deeply touched by this, and even he found that the cynical Eleventh Company soldiers around him were listening intently to the words of the Chapter Commander, as if their hope of victory and glory lay in it.
This power far surpasses all pastors and any political commissar.
Bahram felt he might never be able to do this in his entire life.
“Soon! We will take the first step of the expedition! This is a very important step! If we hesitate, we will fail! If we fail to make up our minds to carry out this great task, we will We have pronounced the fate of hundreds of billions of compatriots! This battle will be unprecedentedly cruel, because we are facing the most evil and stubborn group of heretics, whose souls have been completely corrupted and will never be forgiven Can’t look directly at the Emperor’s Light!”
Then, suddenly, the atmosphere of the speech changed, and Soshyan switched from a priest preaching to an officer assigning tasks to his subordinates.
In other words, he became a resolute Astartes Chapter Commander again.
“But as your commander, your trusted officer and brother, I still have to confess to everyone that although glory is within reach, the road ahead is full of thorns. The maelstrom is not a good place, it is the isolation of the warp from the real universe. The shallowest area, where the material and non-material worlds are intertwined. If you are not careful, you will fall from reality into the void. Even if there is no heresy like the red pirates, the warp gap that opens at any time will swallow the passing warships. Occasionally The warp storm that is set off can turn a solid warship into a skeleton in seconds, and the warp light leaking from the crack is enough to make the mortals of the entire planet go crazy in the blink of an eye… This is what The area where we will fight in the future is extremely dangerous and extremely deadly.”
Somehow, Bahram felt that these supposedly disturbing statements had been made by Soshyan as if they were challenges that some pure man had the pleasure of overcoming—
“War is never a child’s play, and every war will bring tragic consequences~www.mtlnovel.com~ Those dying mourning are the best proof… Those who start the war must also bear the burden. All the consequences, this is the first thing I learned after becoming Chapter Master, but the duty requires us to fear life and death, but I also have to be responsible for the lives of all warriors, so this is a more difficult question- What is the purpose of the war? I know that victory alone is not enough! So what is the result of victory? Or what is the responsibility after victory? This is why I waited until the end of the exercise to inform everyone that we The news of the upcoming expedition, because I am also thinking about how to defeat the enemy with the least cost, how to let Huron send his head without sacrificing more lives.”

Soshyan paused, then laughed, as if he knew no one would go along with his bad joke.
“Of course Huron won’t send his head, so we have to get it ourselves, but what I want to tell you, this expedition will not be launched very urgently, we have a lot of plans and work to do, everyone during this time. It also requires more hard training, and ultimately our goal is to restore the glory of the Emperor to the hundreds of billions of lost souls in the maelstrom!”
Then, he raised his right hand and tapped lightly on his chest.
“Finally, all the blood spilled will be revenge, and the heroic spirit of Randall Chapter Commander is looking forward to solace.”
All the soldiers banged their chests at the same time.
“Vengeance for all blood spilled!”
And this sentence will become the common slogan of all Maelstrom Expeditionary Forces in the future.
