Chapter 863 What? You Were Married?
Before he could figure out why he was so angry, Stunus saw a white area covered in dust. The White Scars' power armor had not been repaired and maintained in time after the war. The gaps from knife cuts and axe cuts, the holes from gunshots and cannons, and the thick blood stains on the armor from unknown sources all proved to Stunus and his brothers what a cruel bloody battle the White Scars had experienced on Agrippina.
Nothing could better prove the loyalty and dedication of the Space Marines than these battle scars. Stunus secretly made a decision here. If the White Scars were willing, he could let the Iron Hands warriors provide the White Scars with excellent repair services as compensation for their failure to support their brothers in the battle.
What was even more shocking was that Stunus could even feel a sense of arrogance coming from the White Scars' forward steps. This kind of spirit is completely different from the disgusting and twisted narcissism and arrogance of the Emperor's Children. Stunus felt that the White Scars in front of him were like a group of strong eagles that could still fly after experiencing the baptism of the storm.
How mighty!
Stunus couldn't help but cheer for the White Scars' military strength. He hoped that the Iron Hands could also have such an uplifting state, wash away the old-fashioned and cold mechanical things, and become a perfect warrior who could control his own emotions.
However, there were still some aspects of the White Scars that made Stunus feel sorry, that is, the lightweight of their weapons. Stunus didn't even see a few Destroyers who specialized in heavy weapons. He heard that there was a different form of punishment among the White Scars, that is, to make a White Scar become a Destroyer. He also heard that there was a curse among the White Scars that was more terrible than not being able to return to the throne, that is, being seriously injured and entering the Dreadnaught.
Stunus felt sorry for the White Scars' pursuit, but he would not say such offensive words on such occasions. However, when observing, Stunus would still replace the group of White Scars that aroused his interest with Iron Hands, and arranged a heavy Porcupine Assault Transporter under the crotch of each of them.
There seemed to be a group of warriors around the high-spirited White Scars, who were as erratic and inconspicuous as pale shadows. Their number was much less than that of the White Scars Company, which had suffered huge losses, but the sense of danger they exuded was no less than that of the White Scars.
This must be the Raven Guard!
Stunus judged this through his own feelings. Facing the strange stealth methods of the Raven Guards, the information provided by mechanical equipment was not as trustworthy as the intuition on a whim.
But. Why did he smell a faint sour smell like a jealous woman?
Stunus had a very complicated emotion towards the Raven Guards, and shame was the main tone of that complicated emotion. As the commander of the Ten Clan Company of the Iron Hands, he was qualified to read all the records in the chapter archives.
Stunus didn't want to recall the dark history of the Iron Hands, who claimed to be as strong as steel. Christos, the former Iron Father who fell under the temptation of the Sapphire King, betrayed the Raven Guard who fought side by side in a battle against the Orcs, causing the Raven Guard, who were good at guerrilla warfare, to suffer huge losses under the firepower of the Orcs.
Another time, the Iron Hands robbed the Eldar holy relics, and the Eldar lured an Orc fleet to retaliate against the Iron Hands. During the battle, a sergeant of the Iron Hands was seriously injured. In this case, the seriously injured sergeant could only be stuffed into the Dreadnought, but it happened that the Iron Hands had no Dreadnoughts at that time, and it was even more coincidental that there was a still active Holy Dreadnought in the flagship of the Knights Hospitaller Chapter next door.
The Iron Hands boarded the flagship of the Knights Hospitaller Chapter without saying a word, wanting to snatch the Holy Dreadnought for their own sergeants. The battle was won, and the Iron Hands got the Holy Dreadnought in their hands as they wished, and also made the flagship of the Knights Hospitaller disappear.
In the Battle of Dawnbreak, the Iron Hands also abandoned the Catachan allies who fought side by side, leaving them to be slaughtered by the Eldar. Collums also framed a company of Raven Guard who investigated the incident.
The Raven Guards were originally few in number, and you still sold and framed them.
To be honest, when Stunus saw these documents, he was shocked and regretful. He had nightmares more than once after walking out of the archives. In the dream, he saw Ferrus staring at the logo of the Iron Hands. After thinking for a long time, he smashed the Iron Hands with a heavy hammer with disgust on his face.
It was really a terrible dream. Nothing makes a Space Marine more uncomfortable than being hated by the father of the Primarch.
While thinking, the White Scars and the Raven Guard had walked to a position 500 meters away from the Iron Hands team. This distance is quite dangerous for Space Marines. After firing one and a half magazines of bolter shells, the Iron Hands will need to engage in close combat with the White Scars and Raven Guards.
The White Scars and Raven Guards continued to approach, and the strong hatred in their hearts became more and more obvious. Stunus felt his discomfort from the quiet activities of the captain beside him.
At this time, Stunus really looked at the approaching brotherly regiment with a cold and suspicious look. He sent a cipher to the Iron Hands' private communication, ordering them to prepare for battle and preheat their heavy weapons. Then he raised his fists, and after using mechanical devices to remove the explosive devices and armor-piercing cones of some bolter shells, he activated the twin storm arrows installed on his arms.
The sparks from the storm arrows shot high, and the shells quickly retreated to Stunus' feet.
"What is he doing?" Chagatai, who was hiding in the team, quietly asked Fugen. He didn't know much about the culture of Ferrus and Iron Hands.
Fugen frowned. He didn't understand the meaning of Stunus firing blanks, but he still tried to answer the Khan's question, "Maybe it's a welcome ceremony, just like firing blank salutes at weddings. I've experienced it several times in Chemos before."
"Experienced?" Chagatai caught the most critical part of Fugen's words, "Do you mean you participated in the wedding of your friends or adoptive parents?"
"No." Fugen shook his head, "It's my wedding."
"Your wedding????" Chagatai shouted in surprise. The news revealed by Fugen almost made his hiding skills invalid.
Chagatai looked at Fugen's body, and then trembled and continued to ask, "Is your wife very unusual?"
"Ah. It depends on which one you are talking about." Fugen smiled, with nostalgia and recollection on his face. "Helens has a strong character, Klina is good at medical treatment and has a kind heart."
