Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

Chapter 32 Imperial Frontiers: Allies of the Empire

It’s so funny, you know? Violent groups at the bottom of mankind always seem to give people an impression of barbarism, vulgarity and ignorance. To be honest, even most members of the Pious Society give people such an impression, don't they? Including the Hammers, you would classify them very simply as under-hive gangs.

But for another group of people, the members of the Syndicate, this set of classification standards seems to be completely different.

Unlike most hive gangs who dress in rags and are equipped with all kinds of clumsy and inferior implants and weapons and equipment, the members of the Criminal Syndicate are very well-dressed. To be honest, it is hard to believe that these gangs are wearing suits. , a "civilized man" with decent hairstyle and appearance is actually a member of the hive city gang.

They don't look like the descendants at all. They wear beautiful clothes and carry various weapons that are exquisitely crafted or simply works of art. They look like a group of idle young nobles, organized in private. Like a gang.

And this way of behavior that stands out among the many violent gangs in the lair depends largely on their boss, Philouise von Jean Christol.

Quite convoluted? That's right, because this is the name of a typical imperial noble. Yes, you heard it right. Philus is an imperial noble. Although this does not make much sense, after all, he is an illegitimate son. People always Rumor has it that he was the son of old Jean-Christol and a mistress.

But no one knows the truth. After all, Jean-Christophe Lao is dead, and his own biological son, well, plus his daughter, wife, etc., well, to be precise, the whole family is dead.

No one knows how the unexpected fire happened, and no one wants to know. Even in Shangchao, a place where curiosity is overflowing to the point of being unreasonable, few people will discuss and delve into the story of Jean Christol. How did the family get wiped out? No one would even mention this surname.

People generally call him "King of Carnival" Philus. The reason is also very simple, because Philus has the most and the best clubs and nightclubs in the whole nest, which is very popular, and Philus Luz also knows how to deal with these powerful people in the nest.

His popularity with women is also very good. Many young ladies and ladies like this handsome blond guy. I can be sure of this, because right now, in the private beta room of this club, our dear Mr. Philus Just hugging me from left to right.

Two beautiful women were leaning on both sides of him. They were both very gorgeous. They were definitely beauties in the eyes of normal people, with a lot of coquettish colors.

They leaned on Philus' chest, laughing or whispering in pleasant voices. Philus put his hands on their shoulders, but his attention didn't seem to be on these two scantily clad women. , a woman who can make most men's hearts flutter.

The blond Philus was thinking about a problem, a problem that suddenly appeared. To be precise, it didn't appear suddenly. This problem had existed for two months, but he didn't expect that person would suddenly come to him, just today. Night.

"Mr. Philus, Mr. Vito is here." Someone said outside the door. Philus raised his eyes and raised his head slightly, "Please come in."

The automatic door opened, and the reflective flowing glass slid to one side. A man walked into the horseshoe-shaped private room. There was also a woman beside him, a woman that Philus knew and was familiar with.

Philus nodded to her, "Hello, Miss Silver Snake, I didn't expect you to come here as a guest with Mr. Vito."

Silver Snake smiled and held Vito's arm, "How should I put it? Life always surprises people, Mr. Philus." "Indeed, Miss Silver Snake, especially you, Mr. Vito, I didn't expect that. We will meet this way, right now, right here.”

Philus raised his hand slightly, "As you can see, this place is not suitable for a formal meeting. If you had informed me earlier, I would have prepared a more comfortable place to receive you."

Vito also laughed and shrugged slightly. He looked around and nodded with satisfaction, "I think it's pretty good. At least Silver Snake and I like it. Moreover, this place is very suitable for some informal conversations."

Philus looked at Vito's bright smile. He nodded slightly and patted the shoulders of the two ladies, "Ladies, we will talk later. Now give me and this gentleman some space."

The two charming women didn't say anything. They stood up and left the private room on clicking high heels. Philus looked at Silver Snake, and then at Vito, whose The meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Vito smiled slightly and nodded slightly to Silver Snake, "Can you please wait outside? My dear." "Of course, I wish you a good time, I'll go find something to drink."

Philus smiled, appearing very decent and polite, "Kerry, please entertain Miss Silver Snake." "Yes, Mr. Philus." The guard captain outside the door said, making a gesture of invitation.

Silver Snake let go of Vito's arm. She waved her hand and turned around and walked out of the private room. As Silver Snake left, the automatic door of the private room closed smoothly. Suddenly, the entire private room became quiet, and all the hustle and bustle was swept away. Blocked out.

Philus leaned on the horseshoe-shaped sofa. He raised his hand slightly to indicate that he would like to sit down, and Vito naturally sat on his left side, as calmly as if he were in his own club.

"You didn't bring a weapon? Mr. Vito, I heard that your marksmanship is very good." Philus asked, pointing to Vito's belt. Indeed, there is nothing hanging on it, which is consistent with Vito's usual habit. no the same.

He smiled and shrugged slightly, "I'm on a date tonight. It's not appropriate to go out with a girl and carry a gun. What do you think? Mr. Philus."

Philus smiled slightly and leaned on the back of the sofa. "Now please tell me, Mr. Vito, is there anything I need to know about your date here?" "A warning, a timely warning."

Vito said with a smile, placing one hand on the back of the sofa, while Philus raised his head slightly, "Warning? I don't remember any trouble recently, Mr. Vito."

"Yes, not before tonight, but I have news for you, Mr. Philus." "The scarlet plant was hit and destroyed."

Philus's expression twitched for a moment, and he quickly regained his composure in surprise. It took almost only a few milliseconds. It would be completely difficult for ordinary people to notice, but obviously, Vito did not fall into this range.

"I'm surprised, and even more surprised as to why you told me." Faced with Philus' question, Vito just smiled, "Because my dear colleagues think that it was you who carried out the attack." "But I didn't. "Yes, I know you don't, but how do I convince my fellow fanatics?"

Vito spread his hands slightly and leaned on the sofa helplessly, "Look, they are all stupid lunatics and persistent idiots. They think that if Mal Hammer is eliminated, you will be the next one to suffer, so You and Mal Hammer work together to carry out the final resistance."

"It's reasonable, isn't it?" Vito smiled, but Philus snorted coldly. He sighed and leaned on the sofa, "I know that Mosley is missing, and I also know that he is either tied up or He is dead, and now it seems that he was kidnapped and the factory address was leaked through some means."

"And your colleagues believe that Marr handed the missionary to me, and then I handed it over to the Legal Department of the Upper Nest Force, the only one who could make that guy speak, or at least force him to speak."

Vito snapped his fingers and smiled, admiring that Philus could understand all this without having to explain himself, "You are a smart man, Mr. Philus, very smart."

The boss of the syndicate sneered. His fingers tapped on the back of the sofa as regularly as a pendulum. "This is not difficult to understand. It is indeed logical, although it is not true."

"So what's your suggestion? Mr. Vito Constantine, as one of the top figures in the Pious Society, what's your suggestion?"

Philus looked at Vito from the corner of his eye. He saw the hunter-like smile. Vito, with black hair and black eyes, crossed his legs and put one hand on his knee, like a man playing chess. A chess player who is about to win.

"Fight back, Mr. Philus, fight back." Vito said with a smile, "I intend to give you, and Mal, a chance, a chance to solve all problems once and for all."

Philus looked a little confused, and then nodded slightly to signal Vito to continue. The latter smiled and waved his hand slightly, "You see, they will soon, the leaders of the pious association will receive me, and then at a correct place The time and place would have welcomed me into the family, and it would have been a heavy religious feast, and everyone would have been there.”

"The leader, the leader, the believer and the patriarch." Vito sneered from the corner of his mouth, just like a hunter with a red heart nailed to the forehead of his prey, his finger was on the trigger, clicking under the pressure.

Philus frowned, "Where do you want us to attack together? Kill all the top figures of the Pious Society? Mr. Vito, this is very inconsistent with your status. You are one of the top figures of the Pious Society, but you Use our power to kill most of your colleagues."

"Of course, I can understand your approach. Killing people with a knife to eradicate dissidents is the right thing to do, but I don't think you or your allies can take over the Pious Association smoothly and stably after all the top leaders of the Pious Association die. power, it will be a large-scale civil war, a civil war more tragic than the current war in the nest. "

Philus raised his hand and counted everything in detail, "I even doubt that the scale will be so big that the Ministry of Justice will directly intervene. Then everything between me and Mal will disappear. The Grand Arbiter does not accept bribes. He only sees the laws of the empire and Order, you must be aware of this."

"Even if the Ministry of Justice had not intervened, we would have suffered heavy losses in the chaotic civil war. Mal and I were unable to fight anymore, and my strength was not enough to deal with the huge number of extremely crazy fanatical believers of the Pious Society. It would have been a war of faith. Jihad.”

"Yes, I know it very well." "Then why do you still want us to start this civil war with you? Block everything about us."

Vito smiled, showing a smile that was very inappropriate at the moment, "Because you will solve the following problems for the empire, and the arbiter and I have other things to do, as long as you handle it properly when in chaos , I think the empire doesn’t mind if you continue to maintain your little kingdom.”

"Of course, I will continue to provide help and help you solve all problems." Vito's smile made Philus frown instantly. His handsome face was instantly filled with suspicion and vigilance. He was silent for a moment and looked at Vito. Looking directly at him, he opened his mouth.

"Who are you, Mr. Vito?" "Look, Mr. Firus, you are a smart man. You have seen the world and understand the truth, so we two smart people don't need to play riddles, and it happens that I am in a hurry now." Vito's smile disappeared, and the majesty of the judge instantly rose. He raised his head slightly, like a lord overlooking everything, a lord loyal to the great emperor. "I, Vito Constantine, am the judge of the court selected by the emperor himself." The word "judge" instantly pushed the entire silent atmosphere into dead silence. Firus, who was still calm and composed, changed his face. He looked at Vito in astonishment and almost couldn't believe it. "You don't need to believe me now, Mr. Firus. The Golden Throne and the Emperor don't need your belief and trust. What you need to know now is that I was ordered to solve the heresy and rebellion in Victoria, and the Pious Society is this goal." Vito's voice gradually became louder, as if the Emperor himself said it, majestic and majestic, "They believe in false gods, cults and heresies. They try to separate Victoria from the light of the sacred star torch and offer it to the enemy of the Empire in the void." "So! I came here in the name of the Emperor to eliminate heretics and traitors. I don't need the Pious Society to live, what I need is their death." "And you, and Mr. Mal, according to the laws of the Empire, I should put you Execute together, believe me, I can do it, I can clean up all the nobles on this planet, and now, Mr. Filus, in the name of His Majesty the Holy, I give you a chance, help me, help the Inquisition, you can keep all your wealth and power. " "If not, in the near future there will be a more powerful force coming here, and then, you will no longer get any forgiveness. " Vito finished speaking, but the strong pressure still shrouded here. Filus looked at Vito and was silent for a long time. He was thinking, doubting and entangled. He had seen many idiots who boasted and lied. He was born, grew up and rose in the nest city. He knew how to tell whether a person was lying. This saved him many times. Filus developed the habit of looking at people's eyes. No matter when and where, he could tell from a person's eyes whether he was telling the truth. He was very good at this. And now, this man was telling the truth. After a long silence, the boss of the syndicate nodded slightly. "I will help you, Lord Inquisitor, I will be loyal to the Golden Throne." "A wise choice, sir." Vito stood up, stretched out a hand and put a smile on his face again. Firus also stood up and shook the hand, "We will remember your dedication, Mr. Firus, and we will also ensure that you and Mr. Mal receive corresponding compensation and rewards from the legacy of the Pious Society." "As the Emperor wishes." "As He wishes." —— —— Silver Snake sat on a high chair and shook the wine glass. She looked at the wine in her hand with interest, "How is it? Is it better than yours?" "No, it is obvious that the only understanding of wine by the idiots here is that the more expensive it is, the better it must be."

Silver Snake handed the wine glass in his hand to Vito. Vito, who was leaning against the bar, took the wine and drank it without saying a word. Then he showed a thoughtful expression and raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly, "Indeed, they should hire you as a consultant."

Olivia held her chin and smiled, and the district looked at Vito, "How is it? Did you convince the handsome boy?" Vito also laughed, and knocked on the table, as if it was the final word, "We had a good chat, he joined the group, and now."

The judge laughed and stretched out his arm, "Shall we go back and have a drink?" Olivia also smiled and took his arm and jumped off the high chair. The two looked at each other and smiled and walked towards the door of the club.

"Thank you for the hospitality, captain." Vito politely nodded to the captain of the guard when he left the door of the club. The latter also nodded slightly in response. He did not disturb them and made sure that no one could disturb them.

The strong and tall syndicate guards blocked the entrance of the club and isolated the flow of people on the other side. The burly men formed a human wall to ensure that the curious young dignitaries could not spy on the special guests tonight, which made Vito and Miss Olivia leave easily.

They walked through the quiet and deserted streets, and at the end of the club street was a car parked, a black streamer car, the body of the car was as smooth as a mirror, gathering and refracting countless lights, like a flashing crystal passing through. Only the light at the front of the car proved that it was a car.

There was a man standing next to the car, he stood by the folding door, and Vito smiled when he saw him, "It's a good night, Marshall."

"I can see, Vito, and Miss Silver Snake, I hope your activities tonight are going well." Marshall, wearing a black leather jacket, said, the laser gun on his belt was clearly visible under the light inside the car. Obviously, he didn't go on a date tonight.

"It went very smoothly, Marshall, my dear friend, how about you?" Vito came to him, and Marshall nodded slightly, "The Grand Arbitrator wants to see you tonight."

"Ah, tonight is really busy, how about you? Dear, do you mind extending the date?" Vito looked at Silver Snake with a smile on his face, and the latter also smiled sweetly and shrugged slightly, "No mind."

Vito smiled jokingly, and then turned to Marshall. He smiled and sat in the car with Olivia. The folding door closed smoothly after they entered. Marshall looked around at the dark streets and sat in. in the car.

He sat in the driver's seat and started the engine. Vito leaned forward slightly in the back seat and looked at the night outside the car window with a joking face, "Thank you for working overtime, Mr. Law Enforcement Officer."

Marshall also smiled helplessly and held the steering wheel, "You too, Mr. Inquisitor."

As soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the black car sped away and disappeared into the blurry night of Shangchao.
