It was created from fragments of the remaining world of Caliban.

Larger than any of the Imperial's conventional battleships.

It possesses multiple escort fleets and Thunder Eagle gunboat squadrons.

Its powerful armaments enabled it to annihilate an entire fleet single-handedly.

When the lion stepped onto the giant stone fortress

His mood was very heavy.

The once mighty Caliban was reduced to fragments by his irrationality.

The initial animosity of Zabril and the other fallen angels was not without reason.

He went too far, refusing to even give his descendants, who had been abandoned in Caliban, a chance to explain.

The fallen angels, including Zabril, felt something was amiss.

Ten thousand years later, they set foot on Caliban once again.

Although the Stone Fortress is now merely a fortress sculpted from ruins,

But it still holds extraordinary significance for them.

Azrael saw the lion and the fallen angels emerge from the transport ship together, his expression complex.

Excitement, trepidation, hesitation, and helplessness all surged into my heart at once.

So much has happened in these ten thousand years.

The Dark Angels Chapter once regarded the Fallen Angels as a shameful stain that the Empire could not reveal.

We vowed to wipe them out completely.

Now, the situation has changed.

With the return of the lion, these fallen angels, whom they had once hated, became their brothers once again.

This kind of change makes one wonder if everything done in the past was truly meaningful.

"Lord Ryan."

Azrael, accompanied by a large number of dark angels, quickly approached Llane and bowed to him.

Ryan looked at the Grand Master's weathered face.

He had so much to say, but he couldn't get it out.

Finally, the lion patted Azrael on the shoulder and said, "I'm sorry."

These words stunned Azrael.

He never expected the lion to apologize.

In the ancient texts left by our ancestors, the lion is described as a proud and proud creature.

Even if they know they have made a mistake, they will not apologize for it.

“This is not your fault, Father,” Azrael said.

“It was my fault. If I had been more patient back then, perhaps the Caliban War wouldn’t have broken out,” Ryan said. “Those who betrayed the Empire were probably just Luther and other high-ranking officials.”

“They hate me because I exiled them back to their home planet, took away their fleet, and forbade them from earning merit and honor.”

"........."

Azrael and the others listened quietly.

The lion spoke at length, reflecting on his mistakes.

"Fate has given me another chance, and this time I will never repeat the mistake I made ten thousand years ago."

“Zabriel and the others are innocent. Promise me you will stop hating them.”

“I understand.” Azrael nodded. “I will order the end of the indiscriminate hunt for fallen angels and only try those who have been confirmed to have entered into chaos and completely betrayed the Empire.”

“Alright,” Ryan said. “Tell me everything that has happened to the Dark Angels over the past ten thousand years.”

"I owe you all too much. From this day forward, I will once again lead you to rebuild the collapsed order of the empire."

Azrael nodded, revealing everything that had happened over the past ten thousand years without any concealment.

The war against Caliban ended with a massive explosion in the world of Caliban.

The dark angels reorganized their legions amidst the chaos.

They collected the remains of the Caliban and built a megalithic fortress from them.

Because the lion disappeared during that great battle, the surviving dark angels believed that the fallen angels and Luthor had used some underhanded means.

Therefore, they relentlessly pursued the fallen angels, interrogated Luther, and searched for the Lion King's whereabouts.

After recounting in detail what had happened over the past ten thousand years, Azrael revealed another piece of news that shocked the lion.

"Luther has escaped."

After the Battle of Caliban, the Dark Angels did not find the Lion King, but only the unconscious Luther.

They imprisoned Luther and interrogated him periodically, hoping to extract information about the Lion King's whereabouts from him.

But Luther has consistently claimed that he didn't know.

He was blinded by the power of chaos, the lion redeemed him, and then he fell into a coma.

For millennia, the dark angels have kept a close watch on Luther, imprisoning this damned traitor in the deepest part of the Stone Fortress.

Everything was fine before.

Until Magnus launched the Battle of Fenris,

The Primarch used the Dionysian Spear, once wielded by Leman Ruth, to perform a transformation ritual.

This causes the wolf king's offspring to have difficulty controlling themselves, frequently exhibiting wolf-like behavior.

During a mission to exorcise demons, the Dark Angels and the Inquisition discovered something was amiss.

So they formed a joint fleet to investigate the matter.

During this time, Tzeentch's henchmen infiltrated Stonehenge and Wolf's Tooth Fortress.

Stirring up trouble and creating conflict between the two camps.

This nearly led to a confrontation between the survey fleet and the Fenris wolf pack.

Although the misunderstanding was eventually cleared up and the crisis was averted,

However, the altered spirits took the opportunity to cause chaos, tearing open countless warp rifts in the Stone Fortress and releasing a large number of demons, which severely weakened the Dark Angels.

After the Great Rift opened, Demon Prince Mabas led his demon army and Chaos Warriors to invade the heavily damaged Stone Fortress.

The battle was extremely fierce.

Although the Dark Angels successfully repelled the enemy, the cell where Luther, the leader of the traitors, was located was opened, and he himself disappeared.

"I will bring him back."

After hearing the whole story, Ryan spoke calmly.

It seems that with age, his former impulsiveness and recklessness have disappeared, and he has become more composed.

If it were the old Ryan, he would probably have rushed out immediately.

Following the clues, he was brutally beaten by Luther, venting his anger at Luther for damaging his reputation.

In the past, Ryan valued his reputation and control over the legion.

He will immediately fly into a rage and retaliate if anyone crosses his red line.

Ryan has now undergone a dramatic change.

Instead of anger, calmly analyze the situation and then take action.

The players then entered the Stone Fortress.

This time, Dante was smarter.

The task was announced in advance, allowing these chosen ones to tidy up their appearance.

I don't want to cause the same kind of trouble that happened when I met the lion before.

The players behaved very well.

It looks like a simple photo op.

Of course, all of this was a disguise.

If they were to behave themselves, they wouldn't be players.

When the dark angels became accustomed to the presence of the Chosen Ones and lowered their attention...

In the desert, Director Qi and other players quietly slipped away from the crowd.

Sneak into the depths of the giant stone fortress,

Searching for those precious ancient relics.

Of course, their purpose wasn't solely to steal the relics of the Dark Angel.

They had another important purpose for this trip.

That is to find that ancient creation with immense power, even capable of altering the galactic monolith.

This ancient creation is the Tuchucha engine.

Tuchucha is an ancient device with self-awareness.

It enables the fleet to perform subspace jumps efficiently and precisely.

It was discovered by Llane in the Perdictus system during the Horus Rebellion.

At that time, Typhon, the Death Guardian, was searching for this ancient artifact.

Ryan defeated Typhons, seized the Tuchucha Engine, and used it to navigate and defeat the Midnight Lord and Coz.

Upon learning that the emperor had not yet perished,

Guilliman, Lane, and Sanguis, who had established the Second Empire, halted their attempts to divide the empire and planned to head to Terra to provide support.

However, at that time, Altramor was shrouded in a devastating storm.

In order to cross the devastating storm and reach Terra, Llane once again used this ancient artifact for navigation.

This ancient engine enabled them to successfully locate the source of the devastating storm: the fallen land of Horus—the planet Devon.

After destroying the planet Devon, the destructive storm that ravaged the entire galaxy dissipated, and the light of the Star Torch reappeared.

Therefore, Ryan ordered the disused Tuchucha engine to be sealed off.

After the Horus Rebellion ended, this thing was sealed inside the Stone Fortress.

In fact, the Tuchucha Engine, like the Ouroboros and the Heart of Plague, is a warp artifact created by the Old Ones.

By combining them, you can obtain a harmonic engine that can break through time and space.

It is possible to carve out passages in the gap between reality and the subspace, thereby constructing the network.

The rarity and value of the Tuchucha engine need no further explanation.

If you can obtain this ancient engine, you will definitely get the highest honor for players: the Eagle Medal.

If all three divine artifacts can be found, even one Sky Eagle Medal per player would not be enough to recognize their achievements.

Director Qi said, "The Tuchucha engine has its own consciousness, and I suspect it is evading our search."

"The more it dislikes us, the more we must find it, brothers, spread out and search."

As stated in "The Most Efficient Neutron Annihilation" by the steel warrior.

"Look carefully, brothers," the desert encouraged the players accompanying him. "The Tuchucha Engine is part of the network tunneling machine. If we get it, the Human Empire can build the network tunnels themselves."

The players were full of enthusiasm and all wanted to find the Tuchucha engine and use it to show off their achievements.

But their actions were quickly noticed by Azrael.

The Stone Fortress holds too many secrets.

Therefore, the Dark Angels maintain a state of high vigilance at all times.
