The Glory of Macragge experienced three weeks of intermittent warp voyage, and finally locked onto the real coordinates of the Tarassa system and jumped out of the warp.
Before coming, Guilliman did not have anyone send a galaxy to the planet Tarassa.
Such a huge fleet entering the real world from the subspace directly triggered the alarm of the galaxy's defense mechanism.
The fleet responsible for defending the Tarassa system thought that it was a Chaos traitor attacking, and wanted to release the imprisoned demons and seize the sealed objects, and almost launched an attack.
The misunderstanding was not avoided until both parties reported their imperial pass sequences and exchanged identities.
Guilliman's fleet entered the Tarassa system and headed straight for its destination - the planet Tarassa.
The planet Tarassa is a fortress world, and the Inquisition has made extensive modifications for safety reasons.
The entire planet is surrounded by a large number of weapon platforms, space mines, and launch silos.
There is no way the Chaos Fleet could capture this planet without paying a heavy price.
The Tarassa system is the headquarters of the active Inquisitors in the Ultramar star field, and a large number of demon hosts and warp creations are sealed here.
The existence of the demon host is very special. After some humans with special physiques are selected, the Inquisitor will engrave specific marks, runes and protective spells on their bodies.
Then the soul of the original owner was emptied out and turned into a special flesh and blood container.
When everything is ready, the demons are bound in vessels of flesh and blood using mysterious rituals and the demons' true names, imprisoning them.
This is a very effective sealing method.
But in order to better deal with demons, radical inquisitors often take extreme measures.
They will create a demon host to fight other demons and extract intelligence.
Of course, such behavior is very dangerous. Once discovered, it will be regarded as treason and may result in being declared an excommunication for treason.
Contact and trading with demons is one of the things the empire cannot tolerate the most.
Once exposed, it will often lead to suspicion and attack from multiple forces.
This is also the reason why Guilliman wants to find the White Glove. He cannot leave any handle, especially when he cannot control the overall situation of the empire.
The Radical Inquisitor is his best cover.
If things are impossible to do, you can sacrifice the rook to save the driver and protect yourself.
This is not because Guilliman is cruel and treats people as tools.
But the evil god is omnipresent, so he must be fully prepared.
Horus was unhappy with the Emperor for excluding him from the Council of Terra, and ultimately chose to betray humanity when faced with the temptation of Chaos.
The greatest enemy of the Human Empire is the Evil God, but the Evil God does not have strong control over the real universe. They can only choose spokespersons to disrupt the Human Empire.
Guilliman wondered if there would be another Horus.
If so, who will be the next Horus
Calgar
Kohl
Imperial Guards
High Lord
No one can predict who the next traitor will be and how he will destroy the empire.
Guilliman could only try his best to get the best hand possible.
If you want to have good cards, you must occupy the position of righteousness.
If you want to occupy a righteous position, you must not allow yourself to have any flaws, at least you cannot give anyone a handle on you.
He wanted fame, and he also wanted intelligence about the subspace.
This White Glove Plan is a top-secret plan that he must carry out.
The Demon Hosts were taken back by the Inquisition when it was cleaning out those radical Inquisitors. They were imprisoned deep in the fortress city, and unless something unexpected happens, they will be sealed there forever.
Apart from the demonic host, the origin of the Warp Seals is more complicated.
The Milky Way has existed for 13 billion years, ever since the first stars were formed.
Countless civilizations have risen and fallen, and the power of time has wiped out all traces of their buildings.
Even the space undead have not existed for more than 100 million years.
One can imagine how many secrets this ancient galaxy hides.
The Eldar were not the first race to come into contact with the Warp, nor were their creators the Old Ones.
Many ancient races once rose up to study the Warp, seeking ancient and forbidden knowledge from it, and created countless creations with mysterious powers.
As civilization declined, those creations were lost in the ruins.
A large number of so-called artifacts are buried in unknown places, and those ancient and evil things are waiting to be discovered again.
These things are often full of pure malice, and they will stop at nothing to tempt the ignorant to lift the seal and regain their freedom.
The Inquisition collected and sealed these things to prevent them from poisoning ignorant humans.
... ... ... ... ... ..
Guilliman's arrival caused a huge sensation. High-ranking Inquisitors came out of their respective residences and lined up at the skyport to welcome the Imperial Regent.
In terms of scale, the Inquisitor's welcoming team was far less crazy than that of the Ecclesiarchy.
After all, there is still a huge difference in financial resources between the two sides.
The wealth of the State Religion is well-known in the Empire. In addition to the Forge World controlled by the Mechanicus, the Recruitment World controlled by the Chapter, there are also special worlds like Tarasa that house demons and sealed objects.
All imperial worlds must pay religious taxes.
There is another important reason why the scale of the welcome ceremony is not as large as that of the state religion, that is, there are not many ordinary people in the fortress city of Tarasa, and most of them are servants serving the Inquisition.
These servants were destined from birth to work for the Inquisition, learn relevant knowledge, learn relevant rituals, wait to become demon hosts or prepare to go out with the Inquisitor to clean up aliens and demons.
They are few in number, far less numerous than those in the church world.
Guilliman didn't care for the mysterious welcome ceremony either.
He didn't come to Tarasa for vanity.
The airlock door opened, and Guilliman, surrounded by the Honor Guard, stepped out. In full view of everyone, he walked along the red carpet towards the many Inquisitors.
All the judges who have not yet started their missions have gathered here.
They were encouraged by the arrival of the Imperial Regent, and a ray of light that could not be ignored appeared in the dark galaxy.
"My Lord Primarch."
The high-ranking Inquisitor Lord named Covenant led the other Inquisitors to kneel and greet him.
"Get up." Gillie looked at the artificial device implanted in the chin of the Holy Covenant and said, "I am here to rectify the chaos in the Inquisition, and I still need your full cooperation. Submit all the information of the Inquisitors to me, I need to sort it out."
Guilliman used another excuse to conceal his true purpose.
Of course, sorting out the chaotic relationships in the court is also something that must be done.
The chaos in the courtroom was unimaginable.
In name, all inquisitors are of equal rank.
In other words, an inquisitor has no right to interrogate another inquisitor, nor does he have the right to ask the other party to explain any plan he has made.
What's even more terrifying is that they have great power and can mobilize the Imperial Navy and planetary defense forces. If they know how to behave themselves, they can even mobilize Space Marines.
It goes without saying what will happen if power is so huge and unregulated.
Under Guilliman's orders, all information on Imperial Inquisitors active in the Ultramarines Segmentum and still alive was sent over.
“You guys accomplished a lot.”
Guilliman looked at the pile of documents and said to Lord Covenant, the High Inquisitor of Tassara.
"It is our duty, my lord."
Covenant lowered his head, and the built-in artificial device made a soft humming sound.
He once lost his jaw in an operation and had to implant a mechanical jaw for himself using Mechanicus technology.
After a brief conversation, Guilliman began to look through the materials.
The Protoss can quickly read and think about an amount of information that is unimaginable to ordinary people in one second.
With the ability of cooperation, Guilliman spent a few hours reading through all the information of the Inquisitors and extracted the candidates he wanted.
"How come this Eisenhorn has had several experiences of summoning demons? Is he a loyalist?"
Guilliman looked at the Covenant, frowned slightly, and looked dissatisfied.
"Yes, my lord. He did not summon the demon intentionally, but was forced by circumstances. The enemies of the Emperor he encountered were too powerful. In order to eliminate these terrible enemies, he had to use such extreme means."
Covenant tried to explain.
“So he is currently serving in the Inquisitor College?” Guilliman asked.
"Yes, sir."
"Then let him come to see me. I must conduct an investigation to prevent some shameful heretics from lurking in the Empire and becoming hidden dangers." Guilliman said.
