["I am Gallus Herodicus, Chapter Master of the Truth Seekers Chapter!"]
["Judge, I will only ask you once, why are you here!"]
[A low voice slowly came from inside the metal helmet of the Chapter Master of the Astartes named Gallus.]
[You quickly glanced at the ancient model of Terminator powered armor on the opponent's body, as well as his hands that did not carry any weapons.]
[You seemed to exhale slightly in the respirator mask.]
["In order to investigate the truth and prove the innocence of the Truth Seekers Chapter." You said to the Chapter Leader without hesitation. ]
["Well, my intuition tells me that you didn't lie, which is really rare." Captain Gallus slowly drove the Terminator power armor towards you.]
[In an instant, the terrifying aura left over from the opponent’s years of fighting rushes towards you. 】
[Even the Ogryns, who have always been slow-witted and intellectually inferior, turned their huge heads and stared directly at Chapter Leader Gallus.]
【However, you did not feel the slightest fear.】
[You also drive the power armor and step forward, facing each other head-on without any fear.]
["My intuition tells me that you may be a trustworthy human being, but you may not be a trustworthy judge." The cold gaze of Captain Gallus seemed to pass through the eyepiece of his helmet and was firmly focused on you.
On top of the silver skull.]
["Thank you for your appreciation, I can now judge that the Truth Seekers Chapter has not committed heresy, nor has it been foolish to start a rebellion, because I am still alive at this moment..."]
["But, dear Chapter Master, can you tell me why your Chapter has refused the call of the Inquisition several times? Didn't your intuition tell you the reaction of the Inquisition? Or maybe it's me?
The arrival of the inquisitor?" You slightly raised your chin, which was covered by the respirator mask.]
[You stared at the other person’s blue metal helmet and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.]
["As expected of the elite judge "Steel Skull" from the Tribunal, he can still maintain his sanity when facing me... Come with me, Your Majesty the Judge, and I will give you a reasonable explanation!"]
[Captain Gallus seems to be staring deeply at you through the visor of his helmet.]
[He drove the ancient Terminator powered armor without hesitation and turned around and walked towards the building where the battle group was stationed. ]
[You shake the silver head with pulsating veins vigorously.]
[At this moment, there was a strange rustling sound. 】
[In the ruins of the hive city around you, the tall figures of the fully armed Astartes monks gradually reveal themselves. 】
[In front of you, they dropped the bolter that had been aimed and activated in their palms. 】
[Then, one by one, the Astartes monks swaggered past you and the Ogryn team, and walked towards the interior of the battle group. 】
[You took a deep breath, trying to calm down the rapidly rising blood pressure in your silver skull.]
[You seem to have heard the low-pitched complaints from the smart guy Zhuan Genbao.]
[You subconsciously turned around and glared at the other person.]
[Smart guy Zhu Genbao couldn’t help but widen his eyes, and his fat lips grew in grievance.]
[You raised your palm and patted the silver head gently.]
[You led the Ogryn team into the always-open entrance of the Truth Seekers Chapter.]
[At this moment, the Astartes monks who had just entered the indoor closed environment took off their metal helmets and breathed in the clean air that had been circulated and purified. ]
[As soon as you stepped into the building, they turned their heads expressionlessly, watching any of your movements with a pair of indifferent eyes.]
[You also took off the respirator mask that covered most of your face.]
[You order the Ogryn team following you to stay put.]
[You passed by the Astartes monks without changing your expression, and walked towards Chapter Leader Gallus who was standing behind everyone.]
[Captain Gallus Chapter gently took off his metal helmet.]
[The opponent is a vicissitudes of life man with five slightly reflective golden service nails on the corners of his eyebrows, and his rough-skinned face seems to be covered with deep lines like knives and axes. ]
["Dear Captain Gallus Chapter, I am waiting for your serious reply. I hope you must think carefully before answering. After all, your answer is related to the life and death of the entire Chapter and even the entire planet..."]
[You raised your chin slightly, stared at the other person’s narrow eyes that seemed to contain a trace of exhaustion, and said in a sincere tone.]
["Your Excellency Judge, please come with me, this is not the place to talk."]
[He clamped the metal helmet with one of his thick arms, turned around and walked towards a room not far away. 】
[You hesitated for a moment, then followed the other person’s steps and walked up. 】
[The heavy metal door opens automatically.]
[Wait until you two enter the interior separately.]
【Your ears seem to hear the slight sound of some kind of protective device being slightly activated.】
[Then, the deep voice of Captain Gallus once again echoed in this room where only the two of you were. 】
["Your Excellency, Judge, what do you think of the Tribunal and the identity of the Judge?"]
["You can rest assured that I, Gallus, am willing to swear by the battle glory of the Truth Seekers Chapter and the name of the Emperor that I will not reveal anything to the outside world, even if I face the threat of death!"]
[The leader of the Galles Chapter with a solemn expression stared straight at you and spoke slowly.]
[You narrowed your dull eyes slightly and stared at Chapter Leader Gallus in silence for a moment.]
["The Inquisition is an institution that receives the emperor's sacred order to eliminate all heretics, aliens and even chaos demons that threaten the human empire... The imperial institution, we are the executioners, judges and those who judge everything... Chapter Captain Gallus,
What exactly do you want to know or express, why not just say it clearly."]
[At this moment, your silver skull is slightly reflecting the cold light under the light of the room.]
["The Truth Seekers Chapter has served the Inquisition for thousands of years. It has been the private guard of the Inquisition almost from the beginning of the Chapter's establishment. We have experienced glorious times and also experienced low ebbs on the verge of extinction... for humanity.
The glory of the Empire and the Emperor, this is actually not a big difficulty, and the innate tenacity of the Astartes monks needs to be tested and tempered by many crises."]
["But, Your Majesty the Inquisitor... do you know how many innocent people belonging to the empire have been personally eliminated by the Truth Seekers Chapter over the past thousands of years?"]
["According to rough calculations by previous chapter leaders... the guaranteed number is around 300 million."]
["In other words, they are not heretics or aliens at all, and they have nothing to do with the traitors from the Chaos Forces... They just accidentally witnessed or were unfortunately located near the battlefield of the Tribunal's operation, and their lives ended there completely.
A moment!"]
["This is why the Truth Seekers Chapter does not want to return to the battlefield of the Tribunal... We are tired of the days of killing innocent people. Now we only want to fight for the Empire of Man and the Emperor..."]
["But I will never fight for the Inquisition! Never!"]
