He was looking forward to what kind of praise the emperor would give him after receiving the news.
Suddenly, he received a radar message that a large fleet was approaching.
According to the signal source, most of them are from the [Ultramarines Legion], and the rest are from the [Forbidden Army].
Originally, Luo Jia had no reaction when he heard [Ultimate Warriors Legion].
Just treat them as friendly troops passing by.
But then when he heard that even the Emperor's bodyguards - the [Custodes] were coming, he suddenly felt that the other party might be here to reward him.
He jumped up from his seat, hurriedly put on his power armor covered with prayer patterns, and wanted to greet the other party.
They even didn't forget to prepare a guard of honor in advance.
One can imagine the excitement.
------
Not long after, Luo Jia was in a mood of great anticipation.
A huge battleship with a magnificent shape stopped near the orbit of the planet.
This is a [Queen of Glory-class battleship] named [Glory of Macragge]!
Its length is about 26 kilometers, and there are layers of void shields attached to it, which can easily block most attacks!
Inside it is loaded with weapons of mass destruction that can even destroy stars!
In addition to its existence as a simple symbol of force, it also serves as the flagship and command center of the entire [Ultramarines Legion], and to a certain extent represents the original gene - Robert Guilliman.
As for this [Glory Queen-class battleship], every Primarch has at least one.
They each play very important roles in their respective legions.
For example: Luo Jia has a ship under his command named [Law of Faith].
Its interior is decorated like a church for prayer, displaying various religious relics (a large number of statues of the Emperor, the Emperor's words...), and is always filled with a large number of priests who can relieve the doubts of various personnel.
.
At this moment, I watched the [Ultramarine Legion] bring their flagships over.
A question mark suddenly appeared in Luo Jia's mind.
He was a little confused as to why the other party was making such a big fuss.
But before he could think about it deeply.
As [Macragge's Glory] got closer to the surface, a tall figure wearing blue power armor slowly walked onto the deck of the battleship and appeared in the arms of Luo Jia and others who were preparing to receive the Emperor's award.
in the speaker's eyes.
Primarch - Robert Guilliman.
The person who commands the [Ultramarines Legion].
Unlike other Primarchs who mostly have weird personalities due to various childhood problems, Robert Guilliman received a perfect aristocratic education since his childhood because his adoptive father was a high-ranking official on a certain planet.
Coupled with his charm and learning ability that are far beyond ordinary people.
His existence can almost be regarded as the most perfect consul.
At the same time, it possesses reliable management capabilities and powerful force.
Back then, he even competed with Horus for the position of [Warmaster]!
One of the things that he and his Space Marines are best at is guiding each planet to develop a suitable civilization in stages based on the different environments of each planet.
In this aspect, they are dozens of streets ahead of other Space Marine legions that only roam around to colonize planets under their command.
It is precisely for this reason that Robert Guilliman is also known as the "Lord of Five Hundred Worlds".
Meaning, it rules five hundred complete planets that can be self-sufficient.
At this time, looking at the figure of the other party getting closer and closer, Luo Jia was a little happy to see his brother, but the doubts in his heart were also heavier.
Because he knew very well that the other party was different from himself, who specialized in religious beliefs, and was the kind of leader who was very conscientious and responsible.
In the five hundred worlds under his command, there are all kinds of things that consume his time every day.
Therefore, normally speaking, it should be impossible for the other party to suddenly visit you without any notice...
On the deck of [Macragge's Glory].
Robert looked at Luo Jia below, feeling a little helpless.
If he had a choice, he would rather lead his troops to fight on the front line than take on the task of offending his brother!
And, just like Horus, Robert couldn't understand why the Emperor would issue such a severe punishment!
In his opinion, Luo Jia and his Word Bearers army should not have made any big mistakes.
At most, the efficiency of the expedition is just a little slower.
But factors like loyalty are definitely more secure.
At the very least, not even Robert dared to say that he was more loyal than Luo Jia.
After all, the other party's fanaticism is well known to the entire human empire.
After opening his mouth with a somewhat troubled expression, he looked at the commander of the imperial army not far away, and then thought of the emperor and prime minister Malcador who were coming over.
In the end, Robert had no choice but to shout to Luo Jia, who was on the ground with a face full of question marks:
"Lorgar Aurelion, my brother.
Because you have repeatedly promoted blind superstitious worship that is not in line with the "Imperial Truth" and forced others to participate in ignorant superstitious behaviors, the progress of the Word Bearers Legion's expedition has been abnormally slow.
Now, His Majesty the Emperor personally ordered the [Perfect City] to be burned down!
And I ask you and your [Word Bearers Legion] to sincerely kneel down and repent for this matter!!"
"?"
These words were like a bolt from the blue, catching Luo Jia and the Word Bearers present by surprise.
They did not understand how it could be a big mistake to worship the Emperor themselves and teach others to worship the Emperor.
Subconsciously, Luo Jia wanted to refute.
intending to question the veracity of what Robert said.
But the commander of the imperial army next to Robert, as if he knew what Luo Jia was thinking, took a step forward and declared solemnly:
"The Primarch Robert Guilliman did not lie. This order was indeed spoken by His Majesty the Emperor himself!"
Hearing this, Luo Jia's face immediately turned pale: "You..."
He didn't give up and still wanted to say something.
At this time, a familiar voice appeared in his ears:
"Lorgar Aurelion, you have disappointed me."
When he heard this voice, Robert, the commander of the Forbidden Army, and even the people they led all bowed down to pay tribute in the direction from which the voice came.
There, there was a tall figure wearing golden armor and a laurel wreath on his head.
Beside him, there was a figure wearing a robe.
The two of them were the emperor and the imperial prime minister, Malcador.
It was also at this moment that a huge invisible pressure was exerted on Luo Jia and the various Word Bearers who were caught off guard.
Like the weight of Mount Tai, the force forced them to kneel on the ground.
"Execute the order."
"yes!"
Facing the emperor's words and gaze, Robert immediately responded.
Then, he began to arrange for his Ultramarines to enter [Perfect City] and evacuate the people there...
