Chapter 96 Blocking the News
The Holy Blessing Wine has a suppressing effect on blood thirst, but this news was temporarily blocked by Chen Xi.

There were only five Astartes and three Inquisitors present, and they all knew the seriousness of the matter, so it was not difficult for Chen Xi to block the news.

But everyone also knows that this news can only be blocked temporarily and it is impossible to block it forever.

The most important issue at the moment is how to deal with the subsequent impact after this news spreads.

If the Consecrated Wine could only identify heresy, then the problem wouldn't be particularly serious. Although Chaos might target this world and want to destroy the production of Consecrated Wine, at most some warbands or cults would come to cause trouble, and it would not attract major forces such as the Black Legion, Death Guard, Thousand Sons, or Red Corsairs.

The Empire has been fighting Chaos for so many years, and the attacks and infiltrations against the Empire's important worlds and holy places have never stopped.

But for the empire, it is not difficult to defend these important worlds and holy places.

As long as the large Warp rifts are blocked to prevent the possibility of direct invasion by the Chaos fleet, and at the same time, heresy on the planet is strictly banned, the spread of Chaos pollution is controlled, and the cultists are prevented from directly opening portals on the planet, the safety of the planet can basically be guaranteed.

If there were enough garrisons, strong defenses, and naval fleets, even if one or two great demons came, they would not be able to break through these heavily guarded imperial worlds.

After all, even if the Great Rift is opened, Chaos Daemons and Fallen Space Marines cannot appear in the physical universe at will.

The chaotic power of the Warp is indeed very strong, but the Chaos Demons entrenched in the Warp also need sacrifice and summoning to appear in the world.

Therefore, as long as the cults are eradicated, usually more than 90% of the problems can be solved.

And this is the last thing they need to worry about on the Rostov II. The believers of the state religion are so numerous that they can completely rely on their faith to resist the erosion of chaos.

But once word spread that the consecrated wine could quench thirst, the nature of the problem would be completely different.

Not to mention those Holy Blood traitors who have fallen for various reasons will come to rob, even Dante would probably want to bring people here.

Not to mention that this might attract the attention of those four Chaos creatures, and they might send out their elite Greater Daemons and Fallen Space Marines to destroy this world.

You must know that as long as the blood thirst remains, if the Astartes of the Blood Angels cannot resist the temptation of blood thirst and choose to embrace their own desires, then their downfall is inevitable.

But if the blood thirst is solved, or even effectively controlled, it would mean that a huge hidden danger has been eliminated for the Blood Angels, which would inevitably lead to targeting and attacks from the forces of Chaos.

This is also the main reason why Chen Xi requested to block the news. He does not want to see the Spirit of Vengeance appear in the synchronous orbit of his own planet before he has grown up.

Using orbital bombardment to attack others is satisfying, but bombing yourself is completely unnecessary. It was precisely because of this concern that even the most anxious Kelstros, when Chen Xi requested a news blockade, suppressed his excitement and waited for the Lord Inquisitor's decision.

"Judge Chen Xi, what are you going to do?" The judge who came to deliver the ship did not expect that he would encounter such a thing just when he came to deliver the ship.

"Use my ship to report this news to the Sector Inquisition. Remember, do not use astrolanguage, do not use any written records, and do not tell anyone else!" Chen Xi said this, but then he waved his hand and said, "I will still use psychic energy to seal your memory. When you return to see the Inquisitor-General, I will let him unlock it for you! This is safer."

After hearing what Chen Xi said, the judge did not object. Instead, he obediently accepted Chen Xi's blocking of his memory.

After Chen Xi sealed the Inquisitor's memory, he would only remember that he had a confidential message that he needed to take back to the Inquisitor Grand Master, the highest official of the Star Region Inquisition. Before meeting the Inquisitor Grand Master, this secret must not be known to anyone else.

In order to ensure that the Inquisitor who was going back to deliver the letter could meet the Grand Inquisitor of the Star District Inquisition alive, Chen Xi also lent him the newly acquired black ship so that he could rush back to the capital of the star district in the shortest time.

"Sir Chen Xi, should I take these five Astartes away or leave them to you?" Although the Inquisitor's memory was blocked, it did not prevent him from dealing with the matter at hand.

According to the Inquisition's custom, these five Astartes who knew such important information were either placed under the Inquisition's supervision or simply silenced.

Generally speaking, sending them on a mission where they are sure to die is just the solution to this problem.

But Chen Xi shook his head and rejected the proposal. "I still need time to observe this matter slowly. Leave these five people to me! When you return to report the news, if the Inquisitor asks for my opinion, just say I asked you to bring a bottle of wine to Dante."

As Chen Xi spoke, he handed a bottle of "loyalty" contained in a stasis field to the judge in front of him.

The judge nodded, took the bottle of wine, and then said goodbye and left.

After the Inquisitor left, the Mechanicus Inquisitor, who had been silent the entire time, finally spoke up. "The Blood Angels would go crazy if they could use red wine to quench their thirst! It's simply because the Empire's business climate isn't good. Otherwise, with such a solid commodity, your planet would quickly become incredibly wealthy."

"The production of this stuff is very low. It's all brewed by the nuns using traditional handmade methods. To increase production, I'd have to increase the number of combat nuns, which isn't that easy." Chen Xi shook his head, but didn't deny the other party's statement. "But you're right about one thing, 32. The Blood Angels can really go crazy. Old Man Dante has been troubled by blood thirst for a long time. To solve this problem, the Blood Angels have even cooperated with an old Chinese doctor."

(An old version of Mr. Dante)
"Traditional winemaking methods... that's quite imperial." 32 complained, but then skipped the topic.

"Isn't that how the Empire works? Who told the old emperor not to trust AI? The Scarlet Accord is there, whoever touches it will die." Chen Xi spread his hands and said, "I have prepared a forge ship for you. From now on, you will be Inquisitor Oregana of the Mechanicus of the Inquisition, my old friend.

After hearing that I became the planetary governor, he came to me for some technical cooperation.

The main responsibility of the Adeptus Mechanicus is to supervise the Adeptus Mechanicus, ensure that they do not over-accumulate technology, and integrate various archaeological discoveries and alien technologies into the Imperial system. So the purpose of your coming to me is to build a foundry on my planet to produce "your" scientific research results.
