Guilliman sat in a room that matched his size, flipping through information on an ancient model of cogitator.
But neither Liu Haodong nor Dorluo had any latest news about the meteor.
An alarm sounded, heralding the arrival of his guest, the mighty warrior who had fought with him on Calth.
The door opened, and Hill, wearing a red helmet, walked into the room where the Primarch was.
Guilliman glanced at Hill's power armor and judged that he had fought hard during this period. There were many marks of slashes and fire on the power armor. From these small details, he could distinguish many things.
In Guilliman's impression, Hill was a confident and reckless warrior, but at this time Hill looked very cautious and uneasy.
Reminiscent of the Calth War, where Hill was in a fierce and cruel war, dangers were everywhere. This should also be the reason why Hill was always in such a state of preparation for war.
So much so that even if Hill returns to the safety of Macragge now, Hill has not returned to his normal state.
Even now, Hill's hand is involuntarily placed next to the weapon. This state allows him to respond quickly if anything goes wrong.
"It looks like your power armor needs some work from the technical sergeants." Guilliman said in a relaxed tone. He didn't want Hill, who had been fighting in Calth, to have too much pressure in front of him.
"I believe every scar is worth it, my lord!" Hill replied.
Under the premise that the person facing him was Hill, Guilliman relaxedly chatted with "Hill" about his follow-up situation in Calth.
When Hill said that there were nine more Ultramarines who had returned to Macragge with him, and that they all wanted to meet the Primarch, it would be an honor for them.
Guilliman readily agreed to this request. In his opinion, these heirs who fought bloody battles with Ciel on Calth deserved his personal commendation.
But for some reason, Hill refused Guilliman's request to take off his helmet several times, and the warriors who came in were all armed.
As warriors who had just retreated from the front line after being personally summoned by the original body, the guards did not force them to disarm.
Guilliman just lamented that the battlefield had made these warriors tense, and everything looked like they were in a state of panic. He wanted to comfort these warriors so that they could relax from the highly tense state of preparation for war.
But Guilliman suddenly discovered a question, "Did you throw away that sword?"
"My lord?" Hill did not understand the meaning of Guilliman's words for a moment.
"My sword, the sword I lent you when we were at Calth!" Guilliman reminded.
"...Yes, it's a pity that it was lost during the battle." Hill sighed.
Various details that had been ignored before suddenly flashed before Guilliman's eyes, causing him to lose his relaxed expression.
"Why don't you take off your helmet? Ciel!" Guilliman asked.
"Sir..." Hill said.
"What does that sword look like? What kind of weapon is it?" Guilliman already had a guess in his mind, but he still wanted to be sure.
This time Hill didn't answer, just reached for the bolter.
The battle started suddenly. Hill raised his gun and fired. Guilliman dodged and dodged. The other Ultramarines immediately took action, focusing on Guilliman.
The current environment made Guilliman think of the possibility that Fafnar had mentioned before, a closed environment where he had no weapons in his hands, but the assassin's hands were full of weapons.
It has never been the character of the Primarch to hide and wait for death, so Guilliman kicked away the huge table custom-made for him. The table smashed into the assassin, but before the table could hit the assassin, the table exploded. The bullet shattered.
...
Liu Haodong no longer paid attention to the mortal officials who had moved to fawn over.
The heavy-duty servitors here were carrying and cutting construction debris. Liu Haodong glanced at the big pit and jumped directly.
The heavy power armor hit the ground hard, and his guards jumped down one after another, including Wei Dalong.
Twisted metal is blocked between the building fragments. These metals should be old machines from the workshop. The servitors are using laser cutters to cut the metal for easy transportation.
The servitor looked up at Liu Haodong and said, "Please don't get too close. We can't guarantee your safety."
Liu Haodong looked down at the servitor and said, "I know, you do your thing and leave me alone."
Because he was wearing a helmet, Liu Haodong In fact, the falling "meteor" has been discovered, because its temperature was obviously very high, and the photosensitive system in the helmet found the heat source.
It's just that this meteor looks like a human figure, but it is impossible for a person to maintain a human shape after falling from space. It has been burned by the atmosphere long ago, leaving only bones and dregs.
Which spaceship's metal statue is that?
The servitors continued to work.
It didn't take long for Dorlo to follow suit and jump down into the pit. Like Liu Haodong, Dorluo quickly discovered the falling objects in the pit after coming down.
"The throne is on top..." Dorro suddenly exclaimed, then walked towards the range of the falling object.
Liu Haodong didn't know what Dorluo had discovered, but he immediately followed Dorluo's pace.
"This is a corpse, is this actually a corpse?" Dorlo murmured, his incomprehensible tone revealing full disbelief.
"Corpse?" Liu Haodong stared at Dorluo, wondering if there was something wrong with Dorluo's mind.
Although the thing on the ground looks like a human, and its shape is indeed not much different from a human, you can't say that it is a human corpse just because it looks like a human. How could a human corpse fall from space and still break through several layers? building?
What kind of corpse can withstand such an impact and high temperature burning?
And judging from the size of this thing at the moment, it is at least about four meters tall, which is taller than the original body of Guilliman.
Apart from the original body, where else in the human empire can there be such a tall and big person?
Thinking of this, Liu Haodong suddenly became enlightened.
Among the five Primarchs who came to Macragge, there was really one like this.
Lord of Fire Dragons: Vorkan.
But Liu Haodong never expected that Wokan came to Macragge in this way.
Thinking of this, Liu Haodong wanted to spurn the Space Wolves and the others, and actually said that Wokan was a disaster star and a bad omen!
Could the most benevolent Primarch in the Imperium of Man be a disaster?
Without waiting for what others thought, Liu Haodong immediately shouted to the communicator: "Get the medical team here and keep everyone on the highest alert!"
Wokan is an immortal, and the current Wokan should be resurrected, but I don't know how he is. Resurrected.
Dorluo heard Liu Haodong calling for the medical team, and he also ordered his attendants: "Seal this area, red security level!"
The medical team came to the underground pit as quickly as possible, and under Liu Haodong's repeated instructions With caution, Vulcan's body was carefully brought to the ground.
Dorro was a little confused. When he said it was a corpse, Liu Haodong was quite disapproving. Why did his attitude suddenly change 180 degrees?
Could it be that Liu Haodong knew something?
But as soon as he thought about it, Dorlo was speechless.
Liu Haodong's identity information is easy to check. There is a clear record on the battleship he drove. It can be obtained easily with the authority of the original body Guilliman.
So Dorro thinks, how much can Liu Haodong, a recruit who just came out of the monastery, know?
How could a new recruit know something that he didn't even know?
Dorlo thinks he still has this kind of confidence.
So Dorluo saw that Liu Haodong was so interested, so he let him do it.
He thought this was Liu Haodong's deliberate performance. After all, they were soldiers who had just joined the Ultramarines Legion. They needed to do more credit and tasks to show to the rest of the legion, otherwise Liu Haodong and the others would not take the initiative to take on tasks such as garrison patrol.
After the group got on the hovercraft, they flew to Hera Castle as fast as possible.
It didn't take long for the hovercraft to reach Hera Castle.
As one of the Four Heroes of the Ultramarines Legion, Dorro has very high authority. The hovercraft was about to enter Hera Castle and land directly, but was warned immediately.
The attendant shouted from the cockpit: "We were locked by the fire system of Hera Castle. They asked us to land immediately and undergo inspection!"
"What?" Dorro stood up with a swish, "What happened?"
It is impossible for Hera Castle to impose martial law for no reason, and it was so strict that even the vehicle of his Four Heroes was locked under fire for inspection.
Liu Haodong finally turned his attention away from Wokan's charred body and asked Andre, "What's wrong?"
Andre told Liu Haodong that they were targeted by fire.
Being locked by firepower is no small matter. Once locked by firepower, the opponent wants to destroy the locked target, which is a matter of pressing a button.
Is this a power struggle between the four heroes of the Ultramarines Legion?
Liu Haodong guessed.
The hovercraft landed on the ground obediently and was inspected.
The Ultramarines who entered the hovercraft were very cautious. Even if they saw Liu Haodong and Dorlo, they still checked carefully before letting them go.
Liu Haodong didn't ask a word during the whole process, and Dorluo didn't say a word either.
But both of them knew that something big had definitely happened in Hera Castle.
