"It seems that you are not an innocent and kind-hearted fool, so I'm relieved." Yaoen nodded with satisfaction and handed the ancient book to He Qizheng.
He Qizheng did not expect that Yaoen would exchange the ancient book for him, and he was stunned for a long time without reaching out to catch it.
Until Yaoen put the ancient book into He Qizheng's hand and said, "Keep it, maybe you can use the knowledge in it in the future."
Hearing this, He Qizheng suddenly realized something, but when he was about to ask, Yao En had already left the secret room first.
As he walked toward the ground, Yaoen sent a communication to Anruida and told Anruida everything he heard from He Qizheng.
Anruida compared the records in the scanned books and proved that the stories He Qizheng told about his grandfather were indeed true.
"What's next?" Yao En asked.
"You know what you have to do, there's no need to ask me." Anreda's expression was cold. "A governor's family that allows pure-blood gene stealers to help with assassinations... Such a governor's family should not exist at the Gate of Tyrone."
"You didn't scan any nobles for Genestealer genes?"
"No, they are completely normal on a biological level. But traitors are as hateful as enemies in Talon's Gate. I will find out who is working with the genestealers and clean them out."
"Okay, end of communication."
Yaoen returned to the surface and saw the psyker guarding the door.
At this time, there were bursts of artillery fire, and the 100th District had already started fighting with the attackers.
Yao En prepared to help the 100th District fight, but before he walked out of the room, he asked the psyker a question: "In your prophecy, did this hive city be successfully taken over by us?"
"I saw Beisiu One being eaten clean by the swarm," the psyker said. "But I can see that there are many more void fortresses in the Beixiu galaxy, and the Tyrone fleet is setting up defenses here."
Yaoen nodded and asked again: "Can you see two completely different futures?"
The psyker nodded first, then thought of something, and shook his head: "To be honest, I can't see a second future at all. I can't even see you coming, and I can't see what will happen after you come. What... In my eyes, you are a dead person who has been dead for a long time... All the prophecies about your arrival were told to me by my master, and my master's spiritual power is more powerful."
Yao En was surprised to hear this.
The psyker continued: "Seventy years ago today, the master suddenly said something to me: Tell that soulless person that there will be a catastrophe in the Tyrone sector in seventy-one years."
Yao En stared at the psyker with wide eyes. He felt that this probability was a crazy talk of a psyker, but it might not be true.
"I don't know why, but I feel like I don't have this sentence in my original memory... But I'm sure I heard the master say this at that time... It's so strange." The psyker said to himself in confusion.
Yaoen immediately saved this information and sent it to the Lord of Tyrone in the Tyrone galaxy, and then rushed to fight on the other side of the wall.
……
spire.
Anruida walked to the Governor's audience hall, and after conveying the order to the Governor's attendants that he wanted to see the Governor, he waited quietly.
If the Governor comes, then Anreda will control him and read his mind.
After a while, Anruida heard the sound of footsteps, the sound of tank tracks running, and the crunching sound of the wheels of a double-mounted fixed logging gun...
The door to the audience hall was pushed open, and the noble guards walked in.
These guards are composed of children of various noble families. They may belong to the same infantry squad and wear the same gorgeous military uniform, but the family crests on their shoulders are different.
The officers leading these noble guards were not the ones they had seen at the military parade before, but were new faces.
[The Genestealer genome was scanned. 】
When Anreda focused his eyes on the officers, a prompt appeared in his field of vision.
The appearance of these people means that the Governor already knows the results of Yaoen's investigation and that he has been exposed, but... why?
"Wait a moment." Anreda raised her index finger, "How did your governor know that he was exposed?"
An officer emerged from the Leman Rustan Cree at the door and smiled at Anreda: "Do you and that soulless person think that only that bitch in the bottom nest has psykers around him?"
"Oh, I understand." Anruida suddenly realized, "Okay, let's start the fight."
Chapter 312 Very Bad News
……
spire.
Governor's Residence.
Anton walked in the corridor underground of the mansion, and from time to time he heard slight shouts and deafening sound of cannons, and the sound of logging gun shooting never stopped.
These sounds came from the audience hall, which shows how fierce the battle was there.
"The guards are really difficult to deal with." Anton muttered to himself, but he did not panic and continued to walk in the underground passage.
The attendant followed Anton, and as he walked he saw the walls covered with photos.
They are all photos of Anton's father with the mechanical hound, and each of the mechanical hound's wives.
The reason why it was possible to tell that those women were the wives of mechanical hounds was because they were all crying, their mouths had been transformed into iron dog mouths, and their hands had been amputated and fitted with iron dog claws.
This is the first time that the attendant has followed Anton to this place. He only became Anton's attendant half a year ago. The photos of the former governor that he has seen are all of his family, and he has never seen any photos with the hound.
"Sir Governor, why does your father... like mechanical hounds so much?" The attendant couldn't bear it any longer and asked.
Anton replied expressionlessly: "About eighty years ago, our family went hunting in the Nest. My father brought his mechanical hound. The hound was a gift from a Mechanicus priest who had a good relationship with him. …”
The attendant nodded. He knew that most of the hive nobles' entertainment methods include hunting living people in the hive.
"We chased a family and entered a long-abandoned drainage pipe. There were some insect-like monsters inside, and there were many bald heads."
"The Guard was dead, my mother was torn apart, the Hound was separated from us before being nailed to a wall with a fork by a bald man, and eventually it was just me and my father left."
"When a monster opened its bloody mouth and was about to eat me, the injured mechanical hound came all the way to protect us and scare off the monster."
"My father believes that the mechanical hound was sent to him by the Ohm Messiah and the God-Emperor, plus it saved his life, so our family loves it very much."
After listening to the story, the attendant suddenly realized, thinking that no wonder the former governor liked his mechanical hound so much. Even if the hound was killed by the usurper, he would not hesitate to sell the population of a residential area for money, and then send the body to Agrippina for repair.
"Your Majesty the Governor..."
"Ok?"
Anton glanced at his attendant.
The attendant trembled and asked: "Why do the wives of hounds always change..."
"What do you think?" Anton asked.
The attendant quickly shut his mouth and continued to follow Anton in the passage.
They walked for a full half hour, and every half meter along the way there were pictures of the Governor with the Hound and the Hound's new wife.
Finally they came to a large door.
Anton used his own blood to open the door and walk in.
The attendant's eyes searched the dim light and saw a...monster sitting on a skeletal throne.
It had arms and legs, was extremely fat, had purple skin, and had an astonishingly round bald head.
Anton saluted it.
The monster nodded in response.
"After you see the results of the imperial guards' investigation, I will organize the guards to attack them." Anton reported respectfully.
"Idiot." The monster's mouth didn't open, and the voice rang directly in the heads of Anton and the attendants, "You are showing your hand. If you don't show your hand, only you and your family may die. There are still people in the sect who can lie dormant. Get up and bide your time...our entire sect's big plan has been ruined by you!"
Anton frowned, very dissatisfied.
He is still a human being, not one of those purple-skinned bald men with a spirit of sacrifice, who cannot yet sacrifice the lives of his whole family for the so-called big plan.
"What's the use of your showdown? Can you beat the Tyrones?" asked the monster.
"You can't defeat it, but you can struggle for a while." Anton asked the monster again, "So what if there is no showdown? Can you survive the Tyrone attack and continue your big plan?"
The monster was silent.
After a minute of silence, the monster said angrily: "I was the one who let you go when I went down to the lair. You didn't really think that the hounds could protect your lives? Later, I helped you regain the position of governor..."
"What do you want to say?" Anton asked.
"I want to say that no matter how things develop, we are insects tied to a rope!"
Anton nodded: "Yes, I know this very well."
"Okay, now go find me some food. I need to recharge my batteries to prepare for the next battle." The monster closed his eyes and said no more.
Anton glanced at the attendant beside him: "I've brought it to you."
……
five minutes later.
A mountain of corpses was piled up in the spacious audience hall.
Anreda dragged the last enemy's body out of the penetrated tank and threw it onto the mountain of corpses, then set a fire to ignite the body.
After doing all this, Anreda sat on the burning corpse. His bionic skin began to burn and gradually revealed the metal skeleton, but he no longer cared because most of the skin on the body surface was destroyed in the battle just now. .
There was nothing thrilling about the battle with the noble guards, they were just killing one after another. As a civilian in the guard, he still had the fighting ability of a royal guard.
"One...two..."
Anruida sat in the flames and counted the family emblems she had just collected, and recorded the families represented by these emblems in the database. Next, she would start purging these traitorous families.
After recording all the traitor families, Anruida threw the badge into the flames and sent an urgent communication request to Qin Mo.
"Governor."
When Qin Mo's face appeared on the image, Anruida saluted and greeted him, then told everything that happened in Beisu, and finally put forward his own idea: "I suggest that the Beisu nest be cleaned."
"I think so too." Qin Mo looked distracted, "Yaoen, that Space Marine, you, plus Gray, the four of you should be enough to clean the spire of the hive city. First, remove all the rebellious families on the spire. Kill them, and then direct the army to clean out the lower and lower nests.”
"As ordered." Anruida saluted again.
The communication was hung up by Qin Mo. It was obvious that he didn't care much about the gene stealers appearing in the Beixiu Galaxy.
The scale of gene stealers in Beisu Hive City must be astonishingly large, much more than there were in Tai Lung One when it was still a hive city... But today is different from the past.
[A large number of hostile personnel were scanned. 】
A message appeared in Anreda's field of vision.
On the map in the upper right corner of the field of vision, dense red dots are gradually approaching the audience hall.
