[Why do you look so excited? It's just a piece of debris. ]

Sitting in his office, picking and choosing from the catalog, Perturabo glanced at "his body" who was obviously a little too excited, muttering to himself while walking around the office.

[Hey! Although it's not a space wreck, it's a piece of ark wreckage directly related to Belisarius Cawl! It can also be explored, salvaged, and recycled - isn't that exciting enough? ]

[You look like a young boy on his first voyage. Fortunately, my offspring don't have to see this embarrassing scene this time. I'm going to assign some reliable and steady people to lead the team. ]

[Make sure they remember to bring video equipment! I don't know if it's a single draw or a ten-draw. I can't wait. 】

【What nonsense are you talking about? What the hell is "a single draw can bring miracles"? Are you some kind of alien with strange hobbies? Instant messaging is definitely available. Any veteran of the Second Company's Iron Warriors who has experience in exploring space flotsam or boarding is enough to beat up a mortal like you who occupies my body. 】

At this point, Bian Mu gave the other party a cold snort from deep in his nostrils with extreme disdain, 【Besides, can't you sit down for a while? Walking around affects my work. 】

【Will Perturabo be distracted by such trivial matters? 】

【Perturabo won't, but the wetware of the four-legged long-haired creature that Perturabo is using has pre-written 'Moving Object Capture Reflection' and 'Dynamic Vision Acuity Improvement', and it has a high priority. 】

【Ah, I was indeed careless. Sorry, Pepe, come and kiss the puppy——】

The attendant who was still faithfully on duty in the office cast his eyes on the few lines of meaningless daily report on the document in his hand with a distorted face, as if it was some very important ultimate secret of the universe.

"Hmm, I feel that the smell of my ears seems to be a little wrong. Is it too oily? Ahlin, go to Hongso and get me two bottles of ear wash and some clean dressings."

"Your wish, my lord."

The attendant neatly sorted out the documents on hand within five minutes, and then left the office in a seemingly polite but actually fast way.

【I hate ear wash. And, how many times have I said it. Bah! Bah! Don't use my face to make a stupid pouting expression! ! ! ! Ramizhane Kalosini! 】

After satisfyingly sucking the black and white dog's ears and head hair and ruffling the hair on the back of his neck with his hands, Ramizarn finally mercifully let go of Perturabo.

[Has the exploration team list been finalized? ]

Bian Mu made a dissatisfied throat grumble, [If someone hadn't been very rude to use other people's bodies to disturb other people's work, it should have been finalized long ago. The team list and action plan have been sent. ]

[Let me see... They are all old friends, and there are fewer people than I thought. ]

[How big is the fragment in total, and how many Astartes do we have available? How many people do you want to send up? A company? ]

[That means direct positioning and teleportation--]

The dog looked down at a library administrator who was obviously overexcited with a look of "If you want to go there for free, don't involve my property."

[Although maintaining relative speed is not a big problem for the Iron Blood, the hull fragments are extremely unstable. From the perspective of size and various angles, it is very likely that the center of gravity will shift after the first Terminator is teleported, causing all subsequent teleports to have unknown errors. ]

[--For example, after the teleportation is over, a team of Terminators are found alive and growing together with metal in the wall? ] Ramizann imagined that scene and shuddered involuntarily.

[This is still a relatively less terrible death. ] Bian Mu jumped off the sofa throne and passed by and poked his knee with his mouth before relaxing on the foot mat. [Don't use my body to make those overly mortal little movements. It's very disgusting and very weak. ]

[Uh--] His body opened his mouth, seemed speechless, and watched the fourth original body's next move.

Perturabo walked to his foot pad with the Chapter's emblem and ribbon, stretched all his paws happily, leaned over and stretched out his two front legs, opened his mouth and yawned comfortably, then stretched out his two hind legs, followed by a top-level "whole body shiver" from head to tail tip, huh! The big dog with lush fur shook his shiny hair all over his body.

Relax your muscles like this during work and you can continue.

The demon primarch stepped briskly, shook his big tail and happily returned to the sofa to continue handling official business.

Destiny Steel

Omen Hall

Thousand Sons Supreme Sorcerer (crossed out) - Silver Skull Prophet Master Emmenut's divination and prophecy demonstration course is in progress

The incense with ancient formula and precious ingredients smoldered in the censer, and the curling thin smoke rose faintly in the air, as if there were laughing elves peeping at the world of the living in it, and the think tank director's chanting whispers echoed under the dome of the hall.

There were two Astartes sitting at both ends of the circle, one wearing the blue armor of the think tank, and the other wearing the black armor of the priest. Several ancient divination parchments were spread out on and around the priest's knees.

There are no other light sources in the hall. The magic circle is surrounded by four incense burners, and nine sacred candles are lit around the incense burners. The candlelight blurs the faces of the think tank director and acting priest in the smoke.

Song-like words were describing the omens they had just seen.

“I have heard the shouts of victory that belong only to his own people;

The moon of my hometown shines in the lapis lazuli sky;

I hold high the ancient torch;

I walked through the crowded night;

The glorious man born from the shadow,

His people came.

Stop here in Yi's footsteps,

Despise all enemies of longing.

The door of death is opened for me,

For the wings of gold carry him,

man of laurels,

Darkness feels like home. "

The interpreted divination fell with a melodious ending.

"Okay, that's it." Emmenut pointed at the various rune amulets and tarot cards scattered on the yellow sand. He nodded, "The divination results for the next actions are really very clear. This It is also because of its mysterious proximity in time and space. Our job is to interpret it into more clear and straightforward words and report it to the chapter leader as preparation and guidance for this operation - what did you analyze from it. "Yes, Julius?"

The think tank apprentice and acting pastor sitting opposite the teacher frowned and began to quickly flip through various divination and omen interpretation instructions.

"Hmm... um... I think this may mean that we will find something important on the target object. It may be a relic of a certain saint, um, um, and then it may be related to some imperial sacred objects?"

"But this is a Mechanicus Ark, so this possibility is not high. Although it is a little off, it's not bad," his teacher nodded approvingly, "it has a bit of my charm, Julius."

The acting priest lowered his head in shame, "I will work harder, Master Emmenut."

Emmenute nodded, satisfied with the student's humility and eagerness to learn, and sent a message to the bridge.

"This operation has a high probability of recovering the ancient warriors of the Third Legion."

Gua………
