Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 100 Internal Affairs of the Tribunal

After Paul pierced the opponent's chest with the sharp blade hidden in his arm and crushed his heart, he took a step back and looked around breathlessly.

The battle was basically over, and all the people brought by the Inquisitor had fallen to the ground.

But the people Paul brought with him also suffered heavy losses.

Only two of his acolytes were still standing, more than half of his kill squad had been lost, and two-thirds of his Ministry of Justice marshals had been lost.

It was a heartbreaking battle, as these outstanding warriors should have been fighting for the stability of the Imperium and for their loyalty to the Emperor.

But now, they all fell here.

For a secret unknown to them, they were sacrificed in vain in the internal strife of the Inquisition.

But such things are not uncommon for the Inquisition. How many elite imperial soldiers have fallen in the shadow war within the Inquisition?

Paul had no time to think about these things. He checked his condition, looked at the survivors, ordered them to gather, and continue to escort him to the office of the Inquisitor Grand Master.

But just as he gathered his troops and prepared to move on, the Grand Inquisitor appeared in front of Paul.

"You did well, Paul. You kept the secret." The Grand Inquisitor stared at Paul, his expression unremarkable. But then he spoke, "Now tell me, what secret did you bring back? So much so that you had to execute another Inquisitor to keep it secret?"

Looking at the Grand Inquisitor in front of him, Paul was stunned for a moment, as if he did not expect the Grand Inquisitor to appear suddenly.

But the next second, Paul raised his weapon towards the Grand Inquisitor: "The secret is... you deserve to die!"

Paul pulled the trigger of the grenade launcher in his hand without hesitation at the Inquisitor Grand Master, and a Kraken bomb accurately hit the Inquisitor Grand Master's head.

With a scream, the Grand Inquisitor in front of Paul suddenly shattered, revealing a psychic with half of his chest blown off, lying on the ground twitching.

"Tsk, since you knew the secret was to be brought to the Inquisitor, you still turned into the Inquisitor to deceive me, don't you have a brain?" Paul looked at the fallen psychic and complained speechlessly, and then another explosive bomb smashed his head.

To kill a psychic, one must destroy his brain, because for a powerful psychic, physical destruction is not a fatal injury.

Even if their hearts are pierced, as long as their brains can still think and have consciousness, they can use their psychic power to tear apart everything around them. Even a Leman Russ will be crushed into a pile of scrap metal when facing a qualified combat psychic.

There are even some psychics who use psychic powers to strengthen themselves, making their bodies indestructible, and able to be invincible even against Astartes.

Therefore, destroying a psychic's brain or damaging his nerve center is a more direct and effective way to kill a psychic.

However, the psychic in front of him seemed to be a psychic who specialized in the mind system. Apart from trying to invade Paul's brain to create illusions just now, his physical abilities were not strong.

After Paul blasted the psychic's head to pieces, he led his men towards the Inquisitor's office. Arriving at the Inquisitor's office, he tidied up his appearance before pushing the door open and walking in.

As expected, Paul saw the Grand Inquisitors and Grand Inquisitors of the Mariupol Sector Inquisition who had already gathered.

The Grand Inquisitor is not a Lord Inquisitor. They are the head of the Inquisition of a sub-sector, second only to the Grand Master of the Inquisition.

It can be said that these people in front of us are the core leadership of the Mariupol Sector Inquisition.

"It seems that you have solved the problem." The Grand Inquisitor looked at Paul and the first sentence he said allowed Paul to grasp important information.

"Do you know that Inquisitor Dragovich will stop me?" Paul expressed his doubts to the Grand Inquisitor.

However, the Grand Inquisitor did not answer this question. Instead, a Grand Inquisitor beside him explained, "This is the Inquisition's sector headquarters. Do you think we would be completely unaware of the ambush and attack that occurred here?"

"Then why didn't you stop it?" Paul was a little confused. Since the Grand Inquisitors and the Grand Inquisitors knew that they were attacked, why did they let it go?

Could it be that the secret in my mind has become a bargaining chip?
Paul's eyes grew wary.

"This is a test for you. Since Judge Chen Xi has entrusted this matter to you, it naturally means that the danger it represents is also handed over to you to bear. We must ensure that you have enough ability to bear this risk and responsibility." The Grand Inquisitor spoke. Although he gave an explanation, Paul knew clearly that this was not the answer.

This war was fought at the Inquisition's sector headquarters. Even the most basic secrecy of the Shadow War was gone, and the Inquisition's reputation was torn down. How could it be just a test?

But Paul wisely did not ask any more questions. Instead, he nodded without saying anything, waiting for the Grand Inquisitor to give further explanation.

"We have obtained a prophecy, a prophecy related to Rostov and Inquisitor Chen Xi." At this time, another Grand Inquisitor spoke up, revealing a piece of information that Paul did not know: "A disaster that will sweep across the entire empire is about to strike. The one chosen by the Emperor will bring hope to the empire, allowing us to find an opportunity to redeem the empire in the darkness.

But you should understand that there are radical factions within the Inquisition who believe that the Empire needs to experience more turmoil, and even that darkness and chaos must be artificially created for the Empire."

Although it still sounded far-fetched, Paul wisely chose to accept this explanation and did not delve into it further.

"Okay, now tell us, what is the secret that Inquisitor Chen Xi asked you to bring back? Why is it related to the safety of the entire empire?" The Inquisitor Grand Master looked at Paul and asked him the most crucial question.

At the same time, the Grand Inquisitor also took action and unlocked the psychic seal in Paul's mind.

At this time, the memory that was sealed in Paul's mind by Chen Xi was finally restored. He immediately understood the ins and outs of everything, and also understood why he was attacked before.

"It's 'Loyalty'. As long as they drink 'Loyalty', they can control the blood thirst of the descendants of Sanguinius. Inquisitor Chen Xi asked me to bring back this news and give me a bottle of 'Loyalty' to take to His Excellency Dante, the station commander of the Blood Angels." Paul told what the secret he brought back was.
