Hearing Azrael mention those black-armored men, Soshyan was a little surprised. He also didn't expect that the organization to which Sevatar belonged would actually show up in front of Azrael. Obviously, the Dark Angels must have some advantages compared to other groups.
Special place, or they also have huge secrets——
However, at the moment, he had not yet figured out Azriel's attitude, so he chose to deal with it cautiously.
He frowned pretending to be confused, and then asked.
"What do people in black armor mean? Have you met Chapter Master Azrael? What do they look like?"
"What? You mean...more than one person?"
"Uh... I don't understand what you are referring to, that's why I ask."
Azrael stared at Soshyan and said in a deep voice:
"Captain Soshyan, I hope we can be more frank with each other and stop pretending to be ignorant."
Realizing that the other party was about to get angry, Soshyan coughed lightly.
"Okay, what does he look like."
"Wearing a lion's helmet."
"The lion helmet... I haven't seen it. I've only seen jackal helmets and crow helmets, so I'm not sure if they are the people you are asking about."
Azrael's brows furrowed. Soshiyang's answer made him realize that the matter might not be simple. At first, he thought it was a new association or group of fallen angels, but listening to Soshiyang's description, it didn't seem right.
Like.
"Do you know those people?"
"do not know."
Soshyan shook his head, the sincerity on his face making it impossible for Azriel to see anything.
"But I speculate it could be an organization."
Soshyan then described the details of these black-armored men.
"Um."
After listening, Azrael nodded.
"Judging from the clothing description, they do seem to be an organization, so——"
"Brother Azrael, I also have a question."
Soshyan interrupted the other party.
"How did you know I met those people?"
Azrael hesitated and opened his mouth, but did not say a word, but Soshyan guessed it.
"That person told you?"
Azrael chose silence, and then Soshiyang thought for a moment and asked:
"So...you know him."
Speaking of this, Soshyan paused for a while, and a thought was swirling in his mind. The fact that it could make Azriel so nervous and pay attention to it meant that the identity of the person who appeared in front of him was not simple.
Such a person most likely has only one identity.
However, Soshyan didn't know if there would be any risks in telling this secret in front of Azrael, so he chose a roundabout way of saying it.
"He should...have some connection with your group in the past, right?"
Azrael is not a fool. Soshyan even mentioned this, so he obviously knew something.
In fact, he also knew very well that the war group had been hunting for so many years and had caused many disturbances. To say that the world didn't know about it at all was to completely deceive oneself and others.
At least many war groups with a long history know what the Dark Angels are hunting, but they just don't understand the deeper history.
So after careful consideration, the Supreme Master of the Dark Angel decided to see how much the other party knew before deciding what to say next.
"Captain Soshyan, then...how much do you know about us?"
Upon hearing this, a lot of information immediately appeared in Soshyan's mind. Most of it was told to him by Sevita and Talos, but more secret information was revealed by Saul, who seemed to have specially investigated the third one.
First Legion. He has a deep understanding of the affairs of the old First Legion and knows the ins and outs of the matter.
In his spare time, Soshyan would often ask them for the secrets of the Legions of the Great Crusade, so he knew far more than his age.
Just like the origin of Dark Angel.
A long time ago, Caliban was a dead world located near the Eye of Terror. The planet's surface was covered with dense forests. Caliban was colonized by humans as early as the Golden Age. However, the warp storm that ravaged the galaxy in the Age of Strife caused Kaliban to be destroyed.
Liban was isolated from the rest of the world, and Caliban's human civilization also degenerated into a semi-feudal state.
Before the Great Crusade arrived on Caliban, the human society on Caliban still maintained the characteristics of a medieval feudal society - there were human settlements scattered in the forest, the ruling nobles lived in castles and fortresses, and the common people lived in the aristocracy.
Agricultural production and life are carried out under their protection.
However, there is a reason why Caliban is classified as a death world by the Empire. The forest environment of Caliban is very dangerous. Not only are there various deadly animals and plants in the forest, but there are also giant beasts twisted by subspace pollution. For this reason
, the nobles of Caliban established orders of knights in huge monastery fortresses in many large settlements. These knights are equipped with relatively primitive and ancient armor, and pistols and swords are their standard equipment.
When wild beasts infested settlements, the noble leaders would declare a hunting expedition, and the knights would respond to the call, search for and kill the beasts, complete the crusade, and defend the people of Caliban. This has been the life of countless generations of Calibans.
Way.
However, what really changed the fate of Caliban and the Knights was the arrival of a demigod.
The Primarch Llane El'Jonson came to Caliban. He lived alone in the dangerous Caliban forest for ten years, until one day, he met another destined person.
At that time, Luther, a knight of the Knights, was patrolling in the forest with his companions. While they were resting, a wild man walked out of the forest. Luther's companions were very surprised, thinking that it was a wild beast, and wanted to kill him.
However, Luther saw that there was something different about this man. Then Luther brought the wild man back to the Knights and gave him the name Lion Al'Jonson, which means "Lion,"
"Children of the Forest".
Soon, the primarch showed extraordinary abilities and quickly became the Grand Master of the Knights, and unified Caliban by destroying the beast.
But it was at that time that Leon's break with his adoptive father Luther was foreshadowed, because he appointed a Sev Lord. (Sevita language)
When hearing this, Soshyan still felt strange why the First Primarch's appointment of Lord Cypher would cause conflict between the Primarch and his adoptive father.
Sevita explained that the Lord Seifer appointed by Leon at that time was an unknown person, a young man without any merit. This was a simple and clumsy political trick, but it undoubtedly represented a signal - Le
Ang chose a man who had no connection to the Order's senior knights or masters, who was loyal only to him and who would put Jonson's best interests above all else.
To put it simply, the Lion King does not completely trust the people within the Knights.
Then, when the Emperor came to Caliban, the former Knights naturally became part of the First Legion, and the Leon's power expanded further.
When Soshyan asked what happened to Caliban, both Talos and Sevatar gave the same answer. In fact, it was what was recorded in the archives. Luther betrayed the Primarch and the Empire.
