Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 60: Monk with Farsightedness
Two thousand five hundred bottles of 'Loyalty' were clearly not enough to satisfy the Inquisition's appetite.

However, asking the Inquisition to argue with the State Church over this issue and reaching a result that satisfies both parties will inevitably involve complex exchanges of interests and a long process of deliberation, which is obviously not in line with the Inquisition's ideas.

Generally speaking, the court will choose to deal with key figures, such as Chen Xi.

The Black Ship and the title of Lord Inquisitor were the price they offered, but the Inquisition obviously found that their price was too low.

Even if there were still vacancies for the Star Army, for Chen Xi, these prices were not as good as the 10 million throne coins and almost a whole temple of combat nuns that the state religion had invested in real money.

Not only can a regiment of the Astra Militarum be no match for a Sisterhood of Battle, the Astra Militarum's organization is limited, and its revenue is paid to the Empire as a tithe. However, the Sisterhood of Battle can be massively increased in number by the Ecclesiastes as long as Chen Xi is willing!

Moreover, the nuns will be stationed on this planet and will not leave easily without special reasons.

From this point of view, as long as Chen Xi does not degenerate into heresy or do anything to blaspheme the Divine Emperor, these nuns are equivalent to his private soldiers.

This made the Inquisitor who came to negotiate with Chenxi feel extremely helpless, and he was also shocked by the generosity of the state religion.

The State Religion is truly wealthy! Although the Inquisition also has money, it doesn't dare spend it so lavishly.

Especially when he knew that the national religion had also ordered three moon-level items for Chen Xi, he felt even more confused. Can this thing be given in multiples?
But no matter what, this quota is not enough to satisfy the court.

Finally, after Chen Xi reluctantly moved another 200 bottles to cooperate and increased the tribunal's share to 2700 bottles, the judge was able to go back and report.

Of course, in exchange for Chen Xi's 'reluctant' agreement, he needed to retrieve an Ultramarines named Titus, who should still be in the Inquisition, and send him to Chen Xi.

This is an easy thing to do. He is just a Space Marine who was taken away by the Inquisition because he was reported for heresy. It is very easy for the Inquisition to get him.

This is true even if this Titus is the Second Captain of the Ultramarines.

For Chen Xi, it was a great deal to get Titus at such a low price.

It would even be possible to give the tribunal a little more quota.

However, now that such a small quota has been negotiated, Chen Xi will certainly not create unnecessary trouble.

And compared to this, the big guy in silver armor standing in front of him is the big trouble that Chen Xi needs to solve now.

A think tank of the 666th Regiment.

(Grey Knights Think Tank, all Grey Knights can be equipped with Terminator Armor, and will only be replaced according to demand. Once, the Grey Knights borrowed Terminator Armor from four regiments to fight the heretics. When the enemy saw four regiments with different paint jobs, they immediately knelt down.)

"Hello, mortal. Should I call you Inquisitor or Governor?" The think tank greeted Chen Xi in a friendly manner and then introduced himself: "I am the think tank of the 4th Company of the Silver Sword Regiment. You can call me Khadgar.

I will assist you in dealing with the threat of Chaos's greatest enemies, and in protecting this planet from the contamination of Chaos."

"The Brotherhood of the Farsighted Monks?" Chen Xi glanced at the other party's shoulder armor and revealed his true identity. "Don't be surprised. I'm an Inquisitor after all. It's normal for me to know some secrets."

(Insignia of the Brotherhood of the Farsighted Brothers)

"This is no ordinary secret. I'm curious why you haven't been silenced or had your memories erased." Khadgar gripped his Wrathful Terror Staff, seemingly ready to smash Chen Xi's head in with this masterfully crafted power weapon. "Perhaps I haven't seen Chaos? I just know your existence isn't a particularly serious concern." Chen Xi spread his hands, looking unconcerned.

Khadgar stared at Chen Xi, but ultimately said nothing. He simply said, "Oh, I'm the think tank of the Silver Sword's Fourth Company, not the Brotherhood of the Farsighted Brothers. Inquisitor, you've got it wrong."

"Yes, I remembered it wrongly." Chen Xi did not refute, nodded and said: "You can ask my palace minister about dealing with the chaos pollution. She will provide you with the necessary assistance."

However, Chen Xi added, "Since it's the Silver Sword, then it should always be the Silver Sword. Don't do anything unnecessary."

"I can judge the situation myself, but generally speaking, we are not that extreme unless we are exposed to chaos knowledge." Khadgar nodded. He understood what Chen Xi was worried about.

After all, the existence of Chapter 666 is an absolute taboo in the Empire, so taboo that anyone who sees them in action must be killed.

However, Khadgar came here mainly to help Chen Xi fight against the Chaos pollution, not to silence him. There was no need for him to act inhumane from the beginning.

..............................

"Damn it! What is the Inquisition doing? Why are they throwing Grey Knights at us?" Guterres was stunned after learning that the 666 Legion had sent a think tank.

"They have good intentions and are here to help us fight against the chaos pollution." Chen Xi defended himself, but he also felt a headache.

As a Hammer Man, he is naturally familiar with this professional anti-demon force, the only officially certified Space Marine Chapter that cannot be corrupted by the Empire.

This unit was created at the end of the Heresy, and some official novels describe it as the second legion prepared by the Emperor to persuade the ponies to return to the Imperium.

Although eating books later became Xiao Ma's last fantasy before his fall, this regiment composed entirely of psychics personally formed by Prime Minister Ma is still the Empire's last line of defense against Chaos.

Although they are only the size of a regiment, they are monitoring and sealing the 666 great demons that have appeared in the entire empire.

Generally speaking, a squad of five Grey Knights is enough to deal with the arrival of a great demon.

They are not required to take action in ordinary Chaos invasions. The only situations where they are needed are either the arrival of the Chaos Demon or the occurrence of extreme corruption events. Generally speaking, these guys will only be called in when the event can at least affect an entire star sector.

The price of their action is also huge. Any mortal troops who have seen them fighting demons will be killed, no matter how many there are.

Even if they survive, they will be made into mechanical servants.

As for the other Astartes who fought alongside them, they would be brainwashed and have their memories deleted.

For this, they were often criticized by other warbands that knew about it, but it was really a necessary confidentiality measure.

After all, chaos knowledge may not be a problem when checked at the time, but a few hundred years later this knowledge may lead to the decline of an entire planet.

Just like the Inquisition and the Extermination Order, the Grey Knights are the last gift left to the Empire by the Emperor and Lord Chancellor. They are the necessary evil of the Empire, and the most critical part of it.

Because if the Grey Knights fail, for the Empire, a dozen extermination orders will not be enough to solve the problem.
