Arrival at Alert Star!

The transfer of supreme authority occurs after the succession ceremony.

With more questions in mind, Alvin stepped out of the ancient hall and returned to the prayer hall.

"Welcome back, Master Alvin."

Elsa's tense emotions instantly eased, and she let out a barely perceptible sigh of relief, a gentle smile playing on her lips.

While Valshius's succession ceremony was far less dangerous than that of the Knight Family, even with a low probability, it still carried a certain "risk."

Now, seeing Alvin emerge unharmed from the inheritance ceremony hall, the girl couldn't help but feel joy for him, a joy that came from the bottom of her heart.

Looking at the girl's genuine smile, which she couldn't hide, even the resolute Alvin wavered slightly, but he quickly suppressed it again.

No, I can't be smug!

Slaanesh warning!

Besides, his mind was preoccupied with the alliance, how to save Horn, and the Alert Star; he had no time to think about this.

Sometimes, he could also see a deep-seated admiration in Elsa's eyes, a complex emotion that seemed to be a blend of worship and other feelings.

But he could only pretend not to see it, and dared not respond.

Fortunately, Elsa didn't mind. She was already satisfied with their relationship maintaining its current stage, and she wouldn't ask for anything more.

"Yes, I'm back, Elsa."

After comforting Elsa, Alvin turned his gaze to the Biological Grand Sage Carroll: "Next, I'll leave it to you. Gather the entire ship and set sail for the Alert Star."

The Sword of Redemption, Top Floor, Cockpit.

Carroll, gripping the gear-shaped scepter, walked steadily to Alvin and humbly bowed his head. "Mr. Alvin, as per your orders, the entire crew is fully prepared. Please give the order to set sail."

Elsa, serving as his secretary, lowered her voice and slightly parted her lips as she reminded him, "Young Master Alvin, this is the first time you've formally given orders to the crew. Don't be nervous, just repeat after me."

She had already written down how to set sail and handed it to Alvin. After glancing at it briefly, he looked at the numerous members projected on the communication array and tried his best to remain calm.

Despite his young appearance, Elsa had already meticulously orchestrated and widely disseminated the various exploits of this young "heir" on Losel.

The Emperor's Chosen of the Gods!

Slay the miracle-blessed one blessed by the Blood God!

The story of a young man who single-handedly eradicated a cult and thwarted the conspiracy of the Lord of Change is nothing short of legendary!

Thanks to Elsa's publicity efforts, he now enjoys immense prestige in Valshius. With Carroll's help in keeping the restless collateral bloodlines in check, he no longer needs to worry about fighting those insects.

"Raise the deck!"

"Close the porthole!"

"Activate the Gellar Field!"

"Warp Engine ready, Star Whisperer navigation confirmed, jump target ahead... Alert Star!"

Alvin sat in the cockpit, gazing at the vast Milky Way, his heart filled with boundless pride. What man wouldn't love piloting a warship, traversing the universe?

The next moment, the Sword of Redemption tore through the barriers of the physical universe.

Like a small island, the magnificent flagship, resembling a cathedral, slowly entered the Warp Rift, its surging ripples spreading through the void, causing the entire warship to tremble.

"This is... Warp travel?!"

Although he had been in contact with the Warp many times, this was the first time Alvin had personally piloted Conqueror-class Cruiser into the Warp, and he was understandably excited.

The turbulent waves of Warp crashed against the ship.

The violent tremors gave Alvin the illusion that they were sailing on a turbulent sea!

Having Gellar Field doesn't mean you can rest easy. Every Warp voyage is a gamble; if you collide with a large Warp Storm, who knows where you'll be thrown?

Besides the Stormfront of the Warp, navigating here also involves many unknown risks, such as the corruption of Chaos, which must be guarded against!

Looking directly into Warp, in particular, can bring unpredictable hidden dangers and risks. Therefore, when navigating in Warp, portholes are often closed to avoid accidents.

The most crucial link is the Star Whisperer! Only Psyker from the Star Whisperer family, with the help of the Imperium's "lighthouse," can guide ships sailing in the Warp in the right direction, so as not to get lost in the Warp.

After a while, Alvin suddenly noticed something.

He... gets seasick!

As Rogue Trader, to be seasick is a laughing Big Tooth if word gets out!

Who knew that traveling in Warp could cause seasickness? Fortunately, it wasn't too severe, probably because it was his first time experiencing it, and he quickly adapted.

"Please don't worry, young master Alvin."

Seemingly sensing a hint of tension on his tense face, Elsa leaned down slightly and whispered in Alvin's ear, "A little turbulence is normal when navigating in Warp."

"I thought I was doing a good job pretending..."

Alvin was slightly embarrassed and touched his nose. "I didn't expect you to find out."

Who doesn't have a little bit of "self-esteem"?

Furthermore, this was his first time traversing the Warp, and considering his previous "bad luck," Alvin was afraid that something might go wrong along the way!

Elsa pursed her lips, her eyes curving like the moon, and chuckled softly, "Because you're the only one in my eyes~ Please rest assured, no one else will notice."

... Winnie, are you angry?

Cough cough, you're overthinking it. Nicole a "Living Saint," she only serves the Emperor now, how could he possibly be a match for her?

Looking at Elsa, whose eyes were like the moon and who smiled lightly, it was as if a sea of flowers was slowly blooming before my eyes, a beautiful scene.

Alvin was stunned.

Elsa was already extremely beautiful, with exquisitely proportioned features. Compared to the aloof Winnie, she possessed a more reserved gentleness. If one had to describe her... perhaps she was like a "wise and supportive wife"?

But in an instant, Elsa returned to normal, as if what had just happened was merely his illusion.

Alvin shook his head, shifting his attention.

"Approximately how long will it take us to reach the Alert Star?"

"If all goes well, we should be able to drive out of Mandeville Point on the Alert Star in a few hours."

Elsa paused for half a second, then continued, "However, Lady Carroll suggests that given the current chaotic situation on Alert Star, it would be best if the Sword of Redemption did not land. Furthermore, you should first send a Star Language message to the Forge Master of Styx Eight, the head of the Agamemnon family, and the Archbishop of the Ecclesiarchy."

Fortunately, Alvin's taut nerves finally relaxed completely as the "Sword of Redemption" sailed out of Mandeville Point: "Thank goodness, thanks to the Emperor... nothing went wrong!"

He was genuinely scared.

Losel's aura of bad luck, which used to bring him "surprises" wherever he went, is finally gone!

The porthole is up!

Gellar Field is closed!

Star Language Permission restored!

Looking out of the cockpit at the planet called "Alert Star," Alvin felt a sense of melancholy about the unknown.

"Young Master Alvin, that's the orbital elevator that the Tech-Priest of St. 8 built specifically to obtain water resources from space," Elsa, pointing her fair, jade-like index finger to the magnificent steel structure that pierced the planet's surface.

At the end of the orbital elevator lies a comet made of ice crystals.

Water resources on the Alert Star are extremely scarce. The Styx Eight Forge World was not built to benefit the people, but solely for their own selfish desires, so that they could better mine... Blackstone resources!

However, Alvin's gaze quickly shifted from the orbital elevator to the Alert Star Nebula, to the enormous vortex there.

Noticing his gaze, Elsa immediately spoke up, introducing him to the most famous and beautiful sight on the Alert Star: "Young Master Alvin, that's the 'Valian Sandstorm Vortex,' which is said to have existed thousands of years ago."

Valian Sandstorm Vortex...

Alvin stared intently at the "eye"-like structure, a sandstorm vortex clearly visible even from space, his gaze flickering slightly as he fell into deep thought.

Within that massive sandstorm vortex lies not a natural phenomenon, but a massive, devastating weapon created during Dark Age of Technology — the Void Claw!

Once activated, it can create miniature "black holes"!

Besides the "Void Claw," there lies a secret that could drive the First Legion and the Dark Angels mad!

What?

Does the First Legion have no secrets?

So... what is Fallen Angels?
