Above the magnificent buildings of Shangchao, anti-aircraft missiles quickly rose up.
It left a series of clearly visible trails, constantly tracking the hovercraft with a gleaming golden shell!
The hovercraft controlled by Iron Man David suddenly turned in mid-air.
It used a flying skill that ordinary mortals could never perform, and it evaded anti-aircraft missiles very flexibly.
But, it's inside the hover car.
Except for Rorschach, who was wearing the six-armed iron cavalry, everyone else remained calm.
The faces of veteran Hassan and psychic Lucy changed rapidly, as if they would faint completely in the next second.
Even so, the two men did not make any noise, trying not to cause any trouble to Rorschach and the others.
Boom boom boom——
At this moment, one anti-aircraft missile after another was constantly turning because of the hover car.
They collided quickly, causing an extremely brilliant explosion of fire.
Iron Man David also took advantage of the time when more ground defense turrets were changing their firing angles.
It drove its hovercraft and dived sharply between the buildings on the ground.
This is to avoid the anti-aircraft fire that is about to take off.
In an instant, the hovercraft with its golden shell flashing continuously seemed to dive to its limit.
Without hesitation, Iron Man David chose a building with a luxurious and magnificent exterior and crashed into it!
Crackling——
There was a loud crash accompanied by the sound of doors and windows shattering and colorful glass flying.
The hovercraft rubbed against the smooth floor repeatedly with no signs of slowing down.
He rushed into the wide space inside the building!
Surprisingly, there seemed to be some kind of prayer going on inside the building.
The nobles of the nest, dressed in luxurious and exquisite clothes, ran to the nearby places in panic and hid.
It also cleared the road ahead for the hovercraft whose gliding speed was gradually slowing down.
Squeak!
Not long after, the hovercraft with its golden shell covered with miserable scratches slowly stopped in front of a ten-meter-tall statue of the Emperor.
It also caused an elderly cardinal who was preaching in front of the pulpit to collapse on the ground with a panicked look on his face.
He didn't even care about the tall white hat on his head falling to the ground.
Squeak——
With a sound of twisting and tearing metal, one side door of the hovercraft flew horizontally toward the surrounding ground.
As the car door slammed to the ground, it immediately caused a series of low exclamations from the surrounding nobles.
The next second, Rorschach, wearing a green six-armed iron cavalry, held the twisted door frame of the hovercraft and slowly poked his tall figure out from the inside.
His appearance also completely triggered heated discussions among the hive nobles.
"Ah, it's an angel of the Emperor!"
"Shh...Look at the paint on the armor, he might be a heretic!"
"Where's the Inquisitor? Where's the Inquisitor? Come and save him!"
"Strange Astartes! Do you know your guilt? How dare you disturb the Emperor's..."
"Uh...what is that?!"
Wearing a metal helmet, Rorschach did not take the noisy comments of the people around him to heart.
He suddenly turned his gaze through the eyepiece.
Staring at the statue of the emperor in front of him, from which wisps of spiritual energy were rising!
The next second, Rorschach's magnetic boots just stepped on the smooth floor.
The whole person was completely enveloped by a golden spiritual energy!
A pair of golden shining spiritual wings.
And an illusory laurel crown flashed above the six-armed iron cavalry terminator!
Faced with such an amazing special scene.
Naturally, this also triggered a heated discussion among the hive nobles!
"Ah! The Emperor has appeared!"
"God Emperor! Please save us!"
"Why an Astartes? And not me?"
"The noble angel has arrived! What a glorious thing this is for the Adoma home planet..."
However, at this moment, Rorschach, wearing a metal helmet, subconsciously lowered his hand and grasped the Heart of the Furnace.
Just as these hive nobles were staring at him with fanatical eyes or indifferent and gloomy expressions.
Each combat team of the Home Defense Forces was joined by a group of Crusaders armed with storm shields and power swords.
People enter the interior space of the church through passages on all sides.
"Everyone! In the name of the Inquisitor of the Mobian Sector of the Inquisition, I order you to leave the church immediately!"
At this moment, a tall old woman with gray hair squeezed out of the crowd.
She stepped forward and waved her old hand without hesitation.
Quickly driving those nest nobles with different expressions to the outside world.
Then, the female judge with an indifferent expression turned around.
She stared at Rorschach, who was standing there motionless, and shouted:
"Stranger Astartes! Are you loyal? Why are you here?"
The female judge's cold questioning gradually echoed in the empty church.
Teams of local defense forces quickly came behind her.
Without hesitation, they raised their laser guns in the direction of Rorschach.
However, what happened next.
But Rorschach was also a little surprised.
The Crusaders holding storm shields and power swords quickly broke through the temporary line formed by the defense forces.
They stepped forward silently, then immediately turned around and stood in front of Rorschach, raising the power weapons in their palms towards the local defense forces!
At the same time, a fanatical shout from behind Rorschach immediately echoed throughout the church!
"How dare you! How dare you disrespect the Emperor's angels! Inquisitor Grendir! Do you want to become a heretic who betrays the Emperor!"
"Have you remained loyal to the Emperor? Or do you want to fight against our state religion?"
The words haven't finished yet.
Rorschach, wearing a metal helmet, turned his eyepiece slightly.
Sure enough, the cardinal who was frightened by the hovercraft and collapsed on the ground seemed to have fully recovered.
He waved the white tall hat in his hand with an enthusiastic expression.
He asked loudly in the direction of the female judge without giving up.
At this moment, the tension between the two sides is becoming increasingly intense.
Rorschach, who was standing in place, suddenly loosened his ceramic steel hand that was tightly gripping the Heart of the Furnace.
He actually took off his metal helmet.
A familiar bald head with a bronze luster was revealed to everyone present.
Rorschach narrowed his eyes and scanned the uncertain expressions of everyone present, and said in a low voice:
"I am an Astartes Brother from the Salamanders Chapter. You can call me Omegan!"
"In the name of the Emperor, we are here to quell this rebellion!"
"Now, can anyone tell me... since you have enough manpower to fight both sides, why don't you suppress the rebellion in the hive city?"
At this moment, facing Rorschach's slow questioning.
Whether it is the female inquisitor with an indifferent expression or the cardinal with fanatical eyes.
It was as if it had completely fallen into an extremely strange state of silence.
At the same time, Iron Man David, wearing power armor, also appeared quietly.
He stood quietly beside Rorschach and raised the chapter flag.
"puff--"
However, there were violent vomiting sounds coming from veteran Hassan and psychic Lucy.
It unexpectedly broke the tense atmosphere that was gradually solidifying among the crowd, and subconsciously attracted everyone's attention.
In the end, this highly likely conflict also completely fizzled out.
About an hour later.
Rorschach, wearing a six-armed iron cavalry, sat at the back of a luxurious dining table with a playful expression.
Right in front of him, a large number of delicacies that the common people of the hive city would rarely see in their lifetime almost covered the entire exquisite table.
Iron Man David, wearing power armor, also sat near the dining table.
However, it was not interested in the delicious food in front of it.
Iron Man David only occasionally turned his metal helmet and repeatedly scanned the people passing by through the eyepiece.
At this moment, a group of fanatical missionaries of the state religion were led by several high-ranking pastors and deacons.
One by one, they entered the brightly lit hall.
They continued to kneel and praise devoutly in the direction of Rorschach, and also looked forward to Rorschach's response.
The cardinal, who had just changed into a white robe with gold edges, was standing alone beside Rorschach.
He waved the scepter in his palm with a smile on his face.
He kept signaling to the missionaries who had finished kneeling to leave as soon as possible.
"Caliph Bishop, ask them to stop kneeling and leave first!"
At this moment, Rorschach, who was playing with a golden wine glass in Tao Gang's hand, suddenly turned his head and gave instructions to the cardinal beside him.
The smiling Caliph was slightly stunned at first.
He immediately hid the smile on his face.
With a solemn expression, he waved the scepter once again towards the people in the bright hall.
Wait until everyone has left this place completely.
The Caliph Bishop smiled again, lowered his back slightly, and said respectfully to Rorschach's ear:
"Honorable Angel, are you dissatisfied with the meal in front of you? The preparation time was a bit rushed..."
"Tsk tsk, Bishop Caliph, I don't really mind you using me as a bully."
"After all, I do need a suitable identity to mobilize manpower to suppress the rebellion..."
"But if you think I am not aware of the little plots of the two of you vying for power, then you underestimate us Astartes!"
With a sneer on his face, Rorschach slightly turned his bronze-colored bald head.
He stared at the Caliph Bishop, whose forehead was beginning to ooze out cold sweat, and asked in a low voice:
"How many troops can you mobilize at present?"
"Your Excellency, the local state religion's Crusaders can mobilize about 500 people, plus some fanatics who are willing to sacrifice themselves for the Emperor. I can recruit a suppression team of about 1,500 people for you."
The Caliph licked his lips subconsciously and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He spoke quickly to the expressionless Rorschach.
Rorschach shook his head slightly.
He blinked, thought for a moment and said,
"So, how many people are there in the Mobian Sixth Regiment that started this hive rebellion?"
"From what I know, including some wounded soldiers, there are about 5,000 people. If they took the opportunity to unite the gangs in the lower nest, the exact number of people will be impossible to count."
The Caliph Bishop seemed to hesitate.
But he still told Rorschach everything.
"So you're just going to let this rebellion continue to spread? Until you can't even protect the most important Leman Russ production line? How dare you?"
"Your Excellency, the noble angel! There is nothing I can do!"
"Our planetary governor was assassinated at the first sign of the rebellion and fell into a coma. It is still a question whether he can survive. This is not a parish world. Even though those hive nobles are willing to come and participate in the prayer announcement, the influence of the state religion here is actually very limited!"
"Plus, the old woman from the Inquisition forcibly seized the command of the Homeland Defense Force in the name of the Inquisitor. She always uses the Inquisition's censorship power to suppress others. Those commanders who want to unite with our state religion to suppress the rebellion have no way to stop them!"
At this moment, listening to the Caliph Bishop, perhaps he was complaining from the bottom of his heart.
Rorschach, who was squinting, suddenly raised his heavy brows and said calmly:
"Oh? Is there such a thing happening again?"
"How about this, you go and inform the female judge that I want to meet her in person. Of course, if she doesn't dare to come, then I can go to her house."
"Ah? Honorable Angel, you...Okay, I'll go right away!"
The Caliph Bishop was slightly stunned.
There seemed to be more cold sweat oozing out of his forehead.
However, when he saw Rorschach staring at him with eyes as cold as ice.
The Caliph Bishop quickly turned around and started jogging towards the brightly lit hall.
Wait until the other person's back completely disappeared from Rorschach's field of vision.
The mechanical voice from Iron Man David slowly reached Rorschach's ears.
"My Lord, I personally think that this cardinal who expressed goodwill to us did not speak the truth completely."
"David, I know. I even suspect that the real culprit behind the assassination of the planetary governor at the beginning of the rebellion was either him or the female Inquisitor, not the rebels."
"However, this has nothing to do with us for now. As long as they are willing to provide manpower and equipment to suppress the rebellion, I can pretend that I know nothing about it. But if they are ignorant of the current situation, don't blame me for being cold-blooded and ruthless!"
"By then, I would rather let the rebels wreak havoc in the hive and completely destroy the Empire's Leman Russ production line than completely clean up these parasites who are just sitting there doing nothing!"
At this moment, Rorschach, with a grim expression, slowly squeezed the golden wine glass in his palm into a ball of metal scrap.
He casually threw the scrap metal onto the exquisitely shaped dining table, causing an extremely crisp sound of metal collision!
Thank you for your support!
