Chapter 297 Emergency Meeting
Three days have passed since Grand Master Ima and his 30 Grey Knights set out.
During these three days, there has been no communication from the planet.
Klipman had to stand on the bridge and stare at the Landes world with his worried eyes.
This planet, which appears red in space, is dotted with green. Klipman knows that this is an illusion created by the evil demons on the planet.
Agriculture that can feed the people of the empire.
But the development of that agriculture is obviously unscientific and supernatural.
Poor soil and thin atmosphere, not to mention the shortage of pure water.
No tenacious plant can thrive in such a dead place. Only the most inconspicuous little mosses can cheer from the moist and dark corners of the hive.
"Nurgle's pollution"
Klipman bit his hand nervously. Only the servitors that maintained the operation were left on the Grey Knights' ships. The loss of 50 Grey Knights was enough to make the Empire sigh. You know, the first Armageddon War.
In order to disperse the fallen Primarch Angron, the 109 brothers they sent suffered heavy casualties, and only 13 survived.
And this time, facing a remote religious world, the Grey Knights will lose 50 people?
Is the great demon on this planet so strong?
"My Lord. We."
"Wait two more days and continue to contact."
Two days passed quickly, and Klipman stood motionless on the bridge for two days.
The planet was still the same, without any signs of madness, but all attempts to contact the Grey Knights failed.
Sighing, with a heavy heart and pain, Klipman didn't know how to report this news to the Grey Knights Monastery.
"My Lord, are we going to launch an extermination order?"
"Prepare cyclone torpedoes and send mercy to this planet."
"Yes, my Lord."
Cyclone torpedoes, Klipman thought of this powerful weapon.
During his career as a demon judge, he had seen the destructive light of cyclone torpedoes dozens of times. Each time a cyclone torpedo was launched, it meant that an imperial planet had lost the need to be saved.
These torpedoes, which can be loaded with different types of warheads, can specifically eliminate hostile targets on the planet.
Atmospheric incineration torpedoes can destroy the target world's biosphere. In the explosion, the atmosphere of the entire planet is ignited, turning a planet full of vitality into a dead star with only lava.
Although the way of destroying the planet is different, all cyclone torpedoes can destroy the surface biosphere.
The explosion radius can be observed in space.
The huge expanding fireball can directly cover all the mountains on the planet, break through the thin film of the atmosphere and go straight into space.
The surface is torn apart and the core is shaken.
If the planet has an ocean, then in an instant all the seawater will evaporate in the explosion, mix into the burning atmosphere, and escape into the cold universe.
"There is no place for the weak-willed or the hesitant. Only with firm actions and firm beliefs can humanity survive. No matter how great the sacrifice is, it is acceptable, and no matter how small the betrayal is, it is intolerable."
After silently reciting the doctrine of the Inquisition, Klipman took the parchment wrapped in red cloth, which would record when he signed the extermination order.
The things on it were written in great detail, including the time, place, people, and process. As long as Klipman's name was signed on it, they could prepare to launch the whirlwind torpedo.
Just as Klipman picked up the pen to write the first letter, the astropath sent a message that dispelled his idea of choosing the extermination order.
A powerful expeditionary fleet was near them, and the astropath of the Demon Inquisition contacted the astropath on the expeditionary fleet.
Klipman was overjoyed, and he put down the parchment and contacted the astropath.
"Expeditionary fleet. What is their mission?"
"The flames of the Damocles Gulf have dissipated. The aliens there are once again ready to move towards the Empire's territory. This time, the expeditionary fleet will completely destroy them."
"Oh? An operation to exterminate the aliens? How many of them are there?"
"My lord, they are overwhelming."
————
16 hours later, the expeditionary fleet contacted by the Inquisition Astropath leaped out from the Mandeville point in the star sector.
As the cracks of the warp rifts opened, huge warships appeared in front of Klipman one after another.
He counted what was in the fleet bit by bit.
Let me see. The Ark of the Mechanicus, the Imperial Navy Fleet, the ships of the Sisters of Battle, and the support of several Space Marine Chapters with different paint jobs.
My God, this expeditionary fleet is so luxurious that conquering the aliens is a piece of cake.
Thinking of this, the excited Klipman connected the communication of the expeditionary fleet, and his head portrait appeared on the holographic projection.
It seems that the people of the expeditionary fleet are also in a meeting and have been waiting for Klipman for a long time.
"Hello, Demon Inquisitor Klipman, this is Inquisitor Microfilament Heresy."
It can be seen that only the people of the Inquisition will greet Klipman, and the other members just symbolically make the Sky Eagle Salute, which is considered a greeting.
"My lords of the expedition fleet, I swear in the name of the Emperor that I need your help."
"This planet has been corrupted by Chaos, and the whole world has turned into the garden of the evil god. We sent out 50 Grey Knights, but there has been no news so far. It is very likely that they are all trapped on the demon world."
A Space Marine raised his hand to interrupt Klipman's explanation. He was more concerned about the situation of the Grey Knights.
"You said that 50 Grey Knights were missing on the planet?"
"Yes, I don't know what your Excellency calls them."
"You can call me Kaiser White Fang, little guy."
Klipman's face twitched twice. He knew that these guys from the Space Wolves had no respect for the Inquisition.
But now the situation is urgent, and he will not choose to tear his face with these Space Marines.
One time is enough for the Shame Moon. That kind of meaningless civil war is a disaster for the Empire.
"Here is the situation on the planet, I will pass it on to you. I hope you can send troops to the planet to find the Grey Knights. Not to mention saving the living, but at least help them recover the holy relics and gene seeds."
"Okay, okay, we will think about it carefully."
Kaiser White Fang pouted his hand, didn't say much, and huddled aside with his arms folded.
Even if he didn't like the Inquisition and the Grey Knights, he couldn't deny their strength against demons.
If even 50 Grey Knights can't make a splash, then the Space Marines who go down may die in vain.
Sometimes I really don't know what to say about the Imperial mechas with exposed personnel, it's too operatic.
