Hearing this, Guilliman’s heart finally settled down.

"This is actually a misunderstanding. The Dark Angels Fleet is willing to be detained in our shipyard, which proves that Ryan is not lying. Otherwise, they are fish on the chopping board."

"But even if it was a misunderstanding, he went too far."

Thinking of this, the Primarch was filled with hatred. No matter what Lion did, it was what he deserved. He actually brought Curze with him.

"I have heard of the reputation of Midnight Haunter, of course, in battle reports and video footage," said Luo Xi.

Konrad Curze is the Primarch of the Night Haunter Legion. This entire legion is no different from their Primarch in style, and is best at using terror, blood, and massacre to deter the enemy.

The news of the arrival of the Night Haunter Legion was enough to break the will of many resistance fighters, who would rather die than fall into the hands of the Night Haunter.

"No." Guilliman got on a hovercraft. He had to rush back as quickly as possible and organize people to capture Curze.

"Ten times the lower limit of what you can imagine, you'd be half as good as Conrad Curze. He's a complete lunatic who claims to be tormented by visions. I don't know what terrible things he could do."

"Where is your iron man? I think I need to use the power of the forbidden object this time." Guilliman asked. Ever since he was rescued by the super-thinking iron man sent by Roshi on Nuceria, he had a showdown with Roshi.

He could tolerate the existence of the Iron Men, but unless it was absolutely necessary, Roshi would never use those hateful Iron Men in the Macragge galaxy.

Guilliman originally thought that the so-called last minute would never come, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

The Night Haunter is more dangerous than a walking super-heavy nuclear bomb.

"It's almost there. It will arrive at Macragge in about fifteen minutes. It is impossible to teleport directly from Mustafar to Macragge. After all, you never allowed it."

Guilliman would never allow the deployment of Iron Men on Macragge.

"He must have come to Macragge with the drop pods. Have you sealed off the drop pods?"

"I immediately ordered Auguston to recover all the airborne pods, and the current recovery progress is... 367."

367, that means there are still 33 airborne pods that have not been recovered.

Luo Xi thought of Fat Tiger Auguston. Although this guy was unreliable in many aspects and even did things like stealing Pollax's orbital defense plan, as a field commander of Macragge, Auguston was absolutely excellent.

With all forces mobilized, the investigation is a very quick process.

The Primarch quickly read the reports from various landing points across the city. His brain linked all the information and clues together to form a meticulous train of thought.

All the Dark Angels in the drop chamber were given the order of the Lion King. They must obey the instructions of the Extreme Warriors and must not resist.

But soon Guilliman received the unfortunate news that when the Ultramarines of the 34th Company were checking a drop chamber, they found only more than 18 liters of blood and a pile of corpses cut into horrific pieces.

There is no doubt that Midnight Haunter had been here and brutally slaughtered the entire drop bay's worth of Emperor warriors.

However, the real-time reporting of the Ultramarines of the 34th Company was soon terminated, and in less than two minutes all the Astartes lost their response.

These were Ultramarines equipped with adamantium armor. Midnight Haunter was not able to kill all of them. Except for three warriors whose helmet visors were pierced and whose brains were crushed, the others were just knocked unconscious by the heavy blows.

Facing the Midnight Haunters in a complex geographical environment and without forming a battle formation, these Ultramarines are just more durable puppets than the Dark Angels. The Midnight Haunters need to spend more time and effort to break through the defense of the adamantium armor and kill them.

But although they saved their lives, the team was unable to hold back the Night Haunter. After finding it difficult to pry open those thick-skinned adamantium cans, the damn madman disappeared into the city.

Macragge temporary command post.

Guilliman, Roche, and Lion sat around a round table.

The lion said nothing, like a soulless sculpture, but he listened carefully to Guilliman's handling of the Dark Angels.

"I sent those warriors to the detention center. I respected the choice of some who were unwilling to hand in their weapons. I believe this was an accident. A full 4,000 Dark Angels were ready to go while you and I were talking. Ryan, you did a great job."

"Are you planning to immediately have the Indomitable Truth abandon those forbidden weapons in your custody if the situation gets bad? Is that right?"

"I know that you have kept many relics from the Dark Age of Technology for your father. The power of those things is indeed worth keeping well, but is this how you keep them? Do you want to harm me?"

Guilliman said this while looking at his brother's face to see if Lion would show any embarrassment again.

He had never been so sarcastic to anyone before; this was a style he learned from Luo Xi, and now he felt that this art of language was indeed useful.

Sarcasm is indeed more polite and effective than naked humiliation and insults.

At least, when he said well done, Ryan's expression changed for a moment.

"If we were in the same boat, you would do the same." The lion king raised his head and responded.

"Lord Ryan, we have issued a notice to the whole city, declaring that this is a joint exercise between the Dark Angels and the Ultramarines. No one needs to panic. Are we being righteous enough?" Luo Xi added that he deleted the information uploaded to the mind space by the private thinker as soon as possible.

Those rumors that spread panic were ruthlessly suppressed by Luo Xi before they could even get out, making it completely impossible for those who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble to do so.

In front of the intelligent computer's sub-body, Macragge's thinking space is transparent, and those with ulterior motives cannot escape the intelligent computer's surveillance.

The lion remained silent. He didn't want to argue anymore. His pride didn't allow him to do so.

If it was wrong, it was wrong. Ryan was not going to deny it. He was just thinking about how to break the deadlock.

Midnight Haunter escaped from the cage of the Indomitable Truth, and now any place in Macragge could be his hiding place, which is a qualitative difference in difficulty.

"We have imposed martial law on the entire city. All Ultramarines and Mortal Auxiliary Forces have been dispatched. Everyone has installed alarm devices that will sound the alarm and accurately locate Conrad the moment they encounter him."

Guilliman's decision would inevitably lead to the death of some soldiers. Facing the Night Haunter, the mortal auxiliary troops would have no chance of survival.

However, their deaths would reveal the location of the Night Haunter, and all forces would be mobilized to capture Conrad.

This is brutal, but effective, as otherwise the Space Marines alone would have been unable to cover the entire city.

"Give him to me, I will cut off his head myself, I will." Ryan stroked his lion sword with his right hand, his tone sonorous.

"Of course, you need to take responsibility for your mistake." Guilliman did not reject Lion. "Don't expect me to clean up your mess. This is your fault."

He was very rational. If he fought alone, he was not sure he could stop the Midnight Haunter. And if Ryan was included, if they still could not subdue Conrad in a two-on-one situation, then the two of them might as well just sit and wait to die.

It is impossible that two against one cannot win!

The Iron Man summoned by Roche has quietly entered Guilliman's inner palace and is hidden in the hydroponic garden. As soon as Conrad shows up, the Super Thinking Iron Man will descend on the battlefield and let the cunning Midnight Ghost try what a physical iron fist is.

Chapter 196: Capturing Koz

The Midnight Haunter, who caused a sensation in the whole city and almost came to blows with the two Primarchs, had already escaped from the search of the Ultramarines and the Mortal Auxiliaries. It was not difficult.

In terms of stealth ability, the only one who can defeat Konrad is the Primarch of the 19th Legion, Covas Corax. As long as Midnight Haunter wants to leave, no one can stop him.

Unlike the phantom spirit that had appeared when Dantioch attempted to calibrate the Pharos Lighthouse, there was a real spirit wandering the city of Macragge today.

At this moment, Midnight Ghost was climbing on the ancient high wall of Hera Castle. His sharp claws could easily pierce into the gaps in the wall, allowing him to flash in the air like a real bat.

Guided by the prophecy, Conrad easily found a loophole among the patrolling Ultramarines and was able to sneak into the historic Hera Fortress.

"Guilliman's cubs are all in hard shells, but that makes it more interesting."

Night Haunter walks in the darkness, he has discovered Guilliman's conspiracy, once he kills those mortals or Ultramarines, his location will be immediately exposed.

The Nostramo people had to suppress their desire to kill and carefully hide their traces.

Originally, he only needed to kill everyone who saw him to carry out a perfect ambush, but now the difficulty has increased and he must do it more flawlessly.

But it was all worth it, he would teach these arrogant Ultramarines what fear was.

……

"We suspect he has escaped. A thorough search of Macragge City yielded no results. It's as if he has vanished from the face of the earth."

Roche handed over the uploaded report to Guilliman. At the same time, he searched for all the camera probes, slaves, servitors and other things that could be connected to the mind space in the city, hoping to discover some information.

But unfortunately, nothing was found and no one met the Midnight Haunter.

"He knew about the backup plan we had placed on the search personnel, and he chose to hide himself rather than go on a killing spree like he did on the Indomitable Truth."

The cunning of the Night Haunter made everyone feel itchy. With his mobility, he might have escaped from Macragge City and was lurking in some unknown corner.

"Titus, can you use psychic prophecy to find clues about Curze? What about the representatives of the Astropaths, what do they think?" Guilliman turned to look at the director of the think tank who was accompanying him. He possessed an extraordinary ability of psychic prophecy.

"We can't do that, your Excellency." The think tank director replied in a muffled voice.

Not long ago, he worked together with other think tanks to use psychic divination to predict the whereabouts of the Midnight Haunter, but it was undoubtedly a failure.

The only takeaway was that the Night Haunter was definitely still in Macragge. They could only feel a powerful telepathic reflection blocking their prophecy.

"What's a little strange is that, in addition to the powerful telepathic reflection of Midnight Haunter, we also found several other psychic signals in the city. One of them was very powerful, but it disappeared very quickly."

The fact that the think tank director described the other party as extremely powerful meant that the other party's psychic power level was undoubtedly far above his.

The water in the city of Macragge is much deeper than it appears.

"Midnight Haunter also possesses powerful psychic powers, although he does not use them often. We cannot defeat the strong with the weak, sir."

Guilliman also understood how difficult it was for Titus. If he could really use psychic prophecy to find Curze so easily, Lion would not have been chasing him on his flagship for sixteen weeks.

suddenly.

The shaking vibration made Luo Xi a little unsteady, and the crystal chandelier above his head kept shaking and making tinkling sounds.

The violent explosion woke up the entire city of Macragge. In the direction of Hera Castle, a small mushroom cloud was rising into the sky, and the raging fire snakes devoured the ancient castle.

There he is!

Just as Guilliman and Lion rushed back to the command post in Macragge City, an explosion occurred in Hera Castle, which they had left not long ago.

Everyone realized that this was the work of the Midnight Haunter. Who else but him could have caused chaos in the heavily guarded Hera Castle?

Guilliman drew out the dagger of sincerity, and Lion was ready to go. The Lion King's anger had been brewing for a long time.

"He will not commit any more atrocities, Conrad Curze, and we will put him in a cage."

"I will go with you," said Roche, and Guilliman knew what he meant. The mortal advisor would guide the dormant and hidden Iron Man to join the battle.

Although Guilliman thought it unnecessary, with the addition of the Lion, Night Haunter wouldn't stand a chance.

In the western corridor of Hera Castle, Captain Sels and his assault team were searching for survivors, while also frantically calling for support from the Primarch.

The scanning devices on their power armor detected a huge explosion reaction somewhere in Hera Castle. The entire Hera Castle is now plunged into a sea of ​​alarms. There is no doubt that the enemy is coming.

The violent explosion caused the wires to short-circuit, and darkness fell upon the great castle.

Captain Searles and his squad switched the display mode of their helmets to infrared thermal imaging. The Astartes' enhanced vision combined with the infrared mode further enhanced their senses.

The company commander and his team advanced slowly, back to back. What they needed to do most now was to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Suddenly, the company commander stopped abruptly. His power boots were only a few centimeters away from a metal wire tied to a pillar. No one knew what would happen once the wire was triggered.

"Go and remove those traps over there." The three Extreme Marines followed the order and walked behind the pillars.

But a few seconds later, the voice of the Extreme Warrior sounded in the communication channel.
