747, European Theater of War: Spiders, Inquisitors and Vampire Hunters (4)
Kakaka.
Soon after, there was a faint sound of several feet stepping on the gravel and rubble.
A mutant with special goggles on his face, and a mutant who looked like a blue-skinned demon, raised his hands in a weak gesture, slowly appeared in Frank and Peter's field of vision from the entrance to the room.
"Your Majesty the Inquisitor, I am the captain of the fourth team of the X-Men Patrol, Cyclops Scott, and this is my team member, Nightcrawler Wagner."
"Our team was tracking a group of heretics who were trying to blow up the mobile hive, but because they accidentally discovered your traces, we decided to come and have a look... We were just attracted by the explosion of the cyclone missile. We are interested in you.
There was no malice, but the attack was launched rashly because the situation was not understood."
The mutant captain named Cyclops Scott said to Judge Frank in a solemn tone.
And after the other party finished speaking.
After quietly sizing up the opponent for a while, Frank slowly put down the storm bolter and jump shield in his palm.
He took a deep breath and said to the two mutants who were also relaxed in front of him:
"According to the regulations of the legion, the authority of an inquisitor is far greater than that of your X-Men patrol team, so I did not notify you in advance and register my identity."
Regarding Frank’s explanation.
The Cyclops eye, which shook its head slightly, scanned the surrounding bloody environment covertly.
He asked hesitantly:
"Now that we know that we are our own people, we feel much more at ease. We are also afraid that outsiders beyond our control will cause trouble to us. After all, you also know that the security environment here is already chaotic enough... Your Majesty the Judge, with all due respect, you
Did you make any unexpected discoveries here?"
"Captain Scott? I want to ask you a question first. How much do you know about the resident judge in your area?"
At this moment, Frank, who could not see any change in expression on his face, did not answer the other party's question.
He asked directly to the other party again.
Cyclops Scott was stunned for a moment, then he said thoughtfully:
"As far as I know, your Inquisitors rarely interact with our X-Men. After all, any of your investigations and actions are responsible to the higher ups. I have only met that Inquisitor a few times, but the other party gave me
The impression left was quite profound.”
"Because the other party doesn't look like a normal human just from the position of his exposed head, but more like... a pumpkin head with a flame burning inside?"
"'Jack-o'-Lantern' Mad Jack, serial number 0088, is a super-powerful villain who was recruited into the Inquisitor by me. He is good at fire tricks and illusions. I gave him a shot because he didn't have any human life involved.
A chance to atone for your sins."
Frank sighed faintly and said:
"But now, I have some suspicion that the other party, who is the resident judge, has colluded with the weapons manufacturing department in a certain mobile nest to steal a large amount of weapons and equipment belonging to the legion and secretly sell them to these heretics."
"Because only the Inquisitor's authority can do similar things, and no one can detect it."
"Of course, this is just my unilateral suspicion. The specific situation and truth still require our continued investigation."
At this moment, Frank's words caused Cyclops Scott to temporarily fall into silence.
Even if the handling procedures are followed, all the consequences of this matter have nothing to do with the X-Men Patrol.
But the responsibility and commitment of being an X-Men still made him speak:
"Your Majesty the Inquisitor, my X-Men patrol team is willing to help you investigate this matter. After all, after the heretics have obtained a large number of weapons and equipment, it is us who will eventually encounter fatal danger."
"Okay, then thank you X-Men for your help, Captain Scott. You two are now under my command for the time being."
Judge Frank accepted the two people in front of him without any hesitation and joined him and Peter's action team.
And the reason why he told the other party this intelligence information.
Also to get help from the X-Men Patrol.
Before conclusive evidence of the Inquisitor's rebellion has been collected.
He, the Inquisitor, had no reason to mobilize more Wehrmacht guards or Astartes to come here.
Then, Peter, who quickly emerged from behind the mortal power armor, introduced himself to Scott and Wagner.
At the same time, he once again led the two people to carefully examine the surrounding environment.
Soon after, as midnight fell, the light became even darker on the dilapidated streets.
Peter, Scott and others, who had carried the huge weapon box again, focused their attention on Frank, who was communicating with Cortana.
The next moment, Frank ended the communication exchange and expressed to the three people around him.
He has obtained all authority from above to track down the resident inquisitor, Jack-O-Lantern, Mad Jack.
As long as the other party has not left the European continent, then the location of the other party can be found 100%.
As a result, the action team headed by Judge Frank quickly started running and jumping on the city streets.
And as they continued to rush towards the direction of the mobile hives.
Just deep in the thick night.
Waves of explosions and flames vaguely coming from the surrounding cities and even the piercing screams from the constant release of superpowers also repeatedly bloomed in everyone's ears.
Perhaps he noticed the doubts expressed by the inquisitor apprentice Peter beside him.
Cyclops Scott, who was taking quick steps, explained to the short-haired boy without looking back.
Almost every urban area with a mobile hive has similar conditions during the night.
Even in the eyes of the Legion and even the senior mutants.
Their series of methods are aimed at giving all people a better quality of life and a safe environment.
However, many people still choose to join the ranks of heretics or super villains, carrying out increasingly blind resistance movements in the name of chaos and freedom.
This situation usually lasts until the Astartes descend to massacre, so that it can be stable for a long period of time.
Soon after, the people who moved quickly arrived at the bottom of an extremely large mobile hive.
As a judge, Frank successfully passed the testing procedures of the intelligent control corps responsible for guarding the mobile hive.
The next moment, everyone entered the bottom floor of the mobile nest city.
They eventually found a hidden residence of the resident inquisitor, Mad Jack Pumpkinhead.
At this moment, Frank, who was struggling to activate the mortal power armor, kicked open the metal door in front of him with a magnetic boot without any hesitation.
However, as the metal door crashed inward, it collapsed.
What clearly appeared in everyone's sight was a blackened skeleton wrapped in melted and damaged power armor, as well as messy traces of the battle indoors!
The inquisitor "Pumpkinhead" Mad Jack, who was suspected of rebellion, has been dead for a long time!
