The ventilation ducts hummed, air was constantly flowing in and out, and the pus lay quietly on the ground, slowly solidifying.
Mortarion's cold and hoarse words came from the channel, and Hades broke out in a cold sweat.
"It's just like what you saw—"
(Both conversations are in Barbarossi)
Hades didn't finish his words, but immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and turned around quickly.
Calm the other person down first, then talk about other things!
You can't reason with an angry man, especially when Mortarion is a Primarch.
"I know that you were busy with the think tank because of Karas. I was worried that they might cause you trouble, so I paid some attention to the think tank's affairs."
“Then Fernando came to me.”
Next, Hades made sure he spoke as fast as he could, trying to frantically and quickly go over what happened.
"In the previous mission, Librarian Jose was attacked by the enemy's psychic energy. After being brought back to the Endurance for treatment, he did not get better. Chief Librarian Fernando had no choice but to imprison him on the spot after trying to clean him up to no avail."
Fernando did have something to say that was difficult to hide, but now he had to say it all. If he kept it a secret, both of them, no, including Barracin, had to send it.
Do not try to hide things from a Primarch who is already suspicious.
"After learning that I have an anti-psychic physique, Fernando took the initiative to contact me, hoping that I could help him clean up his comrades who have been possessed by demons, and at the same time—"
Mortarion raised his eyebrows and interrupted Hades' speech.
"demon?"
"Hades, are you crazy?"
"I can understand those shamans who use witchcraft and perform rituals shouting these words, but science is not something that can be accommodated in their stupid brains."
"But you, what's wrong with you, Hades?"
The threatening tone of Mortarion's raised hand was obvious enough.
Hades swallowed his saliva.
"I call these creatures demons because they are similar to the demons in the legend of Barbarus, but we can discuss what they are called later."
Don't try to change Mortarion's mind. You can call it anything you want. If he insists on calling it an angel, Hades will also say that you are right.
"But I don't think it's a good idea to waste your time. Managing a legion is hard enough, and you still have to deal with my affairs, so I will just call them demons for now."
Mortarion snorted, letting the silly detail slide.
Hades blinked quietly. It was okay. There would be the concept of gods later. There would always be one that could blow up Mortarion's current worldview.
"Since we knew the opponent was a psychic creature, I took the sickle and went with Fernando to behead the creature."
After briefly introducing the background before the incident, now is the time for Hades's death throes!
"Because I know you are usually reviewing the affairs of the Legion at this time, it is not convenient for me to disturb you."
"and"
"Actually, I didn't bother you until we got here. I always felt that you were working very hard and were always concerned about the affairs of the legion, so I made the decision on my own."
"But I remembered that you kept telling me to be cautious when we were on Barbarus, so I contacted Barasin and informed him that the Chief Librarian and I had discovered psychic creatures in the Librarian library area and had sealed off the area."
Mortarion snorted.
"So this is why you just scrapped a district?"
Nmd, how should Hades respond
In fact, on the Glory Queen-class Endurance, it can be said that there are quite a few vacant areas.
Although the power armor is kept at a constant temperature, Hades felt himself sweating madly at this moment. The sweat with the unique smell of detergent that is unique to Space Marines was floating in the helmet.
"I didn't expect it to explode in the end. If I had known, I would have informed you even if it was troublesome."
"Later, we did realize the seriousness of the incident, so we came to you as soon as we took emergency shelter."
The person on the other end of the channel didn't say anything, most likely accepting this answer.
Hades quickly took advantage of the situation to back off.
"The most urgent thing now is to deal with the biochemical pollution in this area. We may not be able to handle everything, so we have to trouble you again."
Let Mortarion make preparations first, and show their active attitude of admitting mistakes. Things about the subspace cannot be discussed in the communication channel. Information leakage or distortion is unacceptable. After he gets out, they will discuss it with Mortarion face to face in detail.
There was silence on the other side.
Just when Hades suspected that the communication was broken, Mortarion's hoarse voice came again,
"Wait until this area is cleaned up and you come out. This matter is not over yet."
Although he thought so, why was he so scared when Mortarion took the initiative to say it
Although according to the rules and attitude he usually sets, Fernando might be in big trouble.
But now, Hades drew Mortarion's fire.
It's okay, that's good. At least Mortarion won't really sentence Hades to death, but it's hard to say about Fernando.
Hades will have to plead for the think tank and save them later, and at the same time plead for the Terra veterans to clear himself of suspicion, and then give Mortarion the Kopya space.
Hades felt that the difficulty of this task was beyond killing a Plague Warrior alone.
Is it too late for him to die now
Why is it that other people's Warhammers are all about fighting and killing, either fighting or on the way to a fight, but when it comes to this, it becomes a plot simulator? !
There is no way, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
However, if we change to another Primarch, Sanguinius or Guilliman, wouldn't he be better? !
The flames exploded, roaring and engulfing everything. The flames danced, rampant and revelry in the air which was filled with a higher oxygen content.
Hades held an incendiary gun in his hand, standing in front of the door of the secret room covered with giant element fuel. He held his breath and fired continuously. The heat rays cheered and rushed towards the fuel. For incendiary weapons, this place covered with organic matter and giant element fuel was simply a paradise.
The smell of burning mixed with a foul smell filled the entire think tank library.
Everything in the secret room had to be burned, and the weapons stained with corpse fluid would most likely be useless. Although Hades felt a little distressed, he also supported Fernando's decision.
In the think tank library far away from the secret room, Fernando was flipping through those important books. These books were stained with a foul smell and the corners of the pages had begun to rot slightly. They would have to be burned soon, so Fernando used the camera on his helmet to record the important content in advance.
"Hades, at eight o'clock, under that shield."
Mortarion's voice came over the comms channel.
Hades maintained his previous expression, and he changed the direction of the incendiary gun listlessly and fired.
The Primarch insisted on maintaining video communication, and only after Hades took his helmet camera to walk around the secret room and carefully captured every detail like a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder did Mortarion allow Hades to continue his burning work.
In the foul-smelling environment, Hades was asked to get closer to take pictures of details. He said he was about to vomit.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Mortarion deliberately created Hades' mentality.
Originally, Mortarion insisted on collecting some of the liquid, but when he realized that in this environment, there was a high probability of subsequent contamination, he had to give up.
At this time, Mortarion was reviewing the Legion's data while checking various reports and monitoring from the think tank over the past decade, while also paying attention to directing Hades.
Barasi continued the cleanup deployment in this area according to the Primarch's arrangement.
When the bright yellow flames devoured the last ounce of space in this space, Hades raised his bucket and swung it, pouring the full bucket of giant element fuel into the flames, bringing this carnival of fire to a climax.
Hades, holding an incendiary gun, walked against the bright yellow flames, the firelight outlining the edge of his power armor.
Fernando stood at the exit of the think tank library, silently waiting for Hades to arrive.
Hades walked over and picked up the sickle obituary leaning against the wall, and Fernando nodded as if to signal.
Then, Fernando raised his hand, and a burst of fire directly ignited the books in the think tank library!
The pages of the book were burning and floating in the air, fluttering in the air, and turned into ashes before they hit the ground.
Hades kept his hands down and did not shoot, giving Fernando his space.
The Death Guard, no, the Dusk Raiders' years of savings turned into nothingness. The Chief Think Tank watched all this coldly, and he also watched the future of the Think Tank.
The raging flames devoured everything, the ventilation pipes were opened to maximum power, and flammable gases gradually filled the entire think tank library.
Fernando and Hades walked out the door, and Hades turned back and locked the door of the think tank library.
Fernando didn't look back.
These flames will burn inside for at least a year, and countless amounts of giant element fuel will be dumped into them through other pipelines.
The first phase of clearing mission in this area has been officially completed.
The sound of Mortarion's quiet breathing came from the communication channel.
"Now, both of you, come out and disinfect."
Hades turned around and took a deep breath. Now, he had to face Mortarion.
There is one more chapter later today () I can finish it before 12 o'clock! I am very sorry!
