Sacred Relics and Relics
"Can you get in touch with Celestine?"
"I apologize for my incompetence, sir."
One of the most famous and oldest Living Saints in the entire Imperium.
Saint Celestine.
How could she, a mere Hospitaller, possibly be contacted?
"That shouldn't be the case. Judging from the Warp fluctuations, she's definitely heading this way. Could she have encountered Warp Storm?"
That's enough.
Han Mingxuan raised his hand, and a blue-gold light began to appear. Before long, a blue light screen appeared.
"Celestine, can you hear me?"
When Celestine heard the voice while he was sailing, he initially thought it was the work of Warp God.
But soon, when she saw the person in the light screen, all her doubts vanished.
"Praise be to your great power, Father of Night!"
"Alright, forget about the Ecclesiarchy stuff. Give me the nearest coordinates, and I'll bring some people over to find you. There's something I'd like you to help me with."
Not long after, Han Mingxuan received the message, and the group got ready to set off.
But just then, an officer from the Ultramarines walked over.
"Honorable Father of Night, please forgive my overstepping."
"If it's about Guilliman, let's not mention it for now. Let him rest for a while longer; he'll be fine in Stasis Field."
As soon as this Ultramarines arrived, Han Mingxuan knew what he wanted to say.
It's nothing more than Guilliman's matter.
But given the Imperium's current state, let Guilliman die a little longer.
"But, Father of Night..."
"The turning point in his destiny has not yet arrived; waking up now may not be a good thing for him."
If Guilliman were to awaken now, he would be dealing with a mess that's neither here nor there.
Are you suggesting he become Tzeentch's colleague?
Should he work with Magnus on the documents?
Guilliman would probably be the first to blow up Terra at that point.
So Guilliman can't wake up yet, and he still wants to see some fun.
The untold stories between the Lord Regent and his Lord Regent are an essential part of the Warhammer universe.
Han Mingxuan and his group then left the Hive World, but the Ultramarines did not leave.
They still need to wrap things up, or rather... take something away.
"Take everything that the Father of Night has used, whether it's a tent, chairs, tables, or tableware."
This was used by the Father of Night in this era was a figure comparable to Emperor.
What kind of sacred relics are these, blessed and consecrated by a pastor from Ecclesiarchy? They're nowhere near as real as Relic!
The members of the Lamenters originally intended to take a portion as well.
But they were originally with the Father of Night.
Moreover, the Ultramarines also suffered losses this time, so they need to take some things back to report.
Meanwhile, on Han Mingxuan's side, after a period of Warp travel, they finally reunited with Celestine's team.
"Father of Night!"
No need for formalities. Was your journey smooth?
"May the God-Emperor bless you, and may everything go smoothly."
Han Mingxuan nodded; the Warp Storms along the way had indeed diminished considerably.
Moreover, this is on the Imperium Frontier.
Based on this reasoning, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the core areas of the Imperium's territory are completely calm.
I'm asking you for a favor this time.
"I will obey the will of the Father of Night."
"Alright, regarding the Lamenters, I need your endorsement. The Penitent Crusade is now over."
"Furthermore, regarding their fortress monastery, return it to them."
"My lord, I can vouch for the Ecclesiarchy, but the matter concerning the Lamenters's fortress monastery involves a power struggle between High Lords."
Yes, aren't the Minotaurs just executioners under the High Lord?
"Oh, it involves High Lord, huh? That's easy."
Immediately afterwards, Han Mingxuan used Warp to send a message to Sinleech.
"Sinleech, there's something I need your help with."
"No problem, Mr. Han, just let me know if you need anything, and I'll take care of the rest."
Just kidding, whether he can become the God of Hope now depends on whether others are willing to help. It's already a good thing that they even came to him.
As long as Han Mingxuan is still willing to communicate, it means that everything can still be discussed.
If there's room for negotiation, then the matter is basically settled.
"You need to take a look at resolving the Penitent Crusade of the Lamenters and a series of related issues."
Don't worry, I've got your back.
"Okay, that's settled then."
Han Mingxuan was about to end the call when Sinleech suddenly had something else to say.
"Mr. Han, there are some things I think we need to discuss. I suppose you are aware of the Accursed's plan."
"Then you pick a time and a place, and I'll come over."
Okay, no problem.
Less than nine days after Han Mingxuan contacted Sinleech, the problem of the Lamenters was resolved.
"With the special approval of Imperium Chancellor Sinleech, the Lamenters has atoneed for its sins, the fortress monastery has been returned to its original state, and the homeworld has been confirmed."
"Chapter Master Malakim, congratulations. Your loyalty and bravery have been recognized by the Emperor."
Malakim could hardly believe the order from the Ministry of the Department of Internal Affairs.
He never expected that their fortress monastery would return like this, and that they would even gain a Homeworld they could recruit soldiers.
"Great Father of Night, the Chancellor would like to invite you to New Prospero."
The name "New Prospero" sounds a bit odd, doesn't it?
However, Han Mingxuan quickly realized that they weren't referring to Prospero, but to Planet of the Sorcerers, a Daemon World.
Han Mingxuan estimated that the guy who came to deliver the orders was almost Tzeentch Daemon.
"Okay, I got it. I'll be there in a bit."
He then looked at Malakim.
"Commander of the Malakim Chapter Master."
"Exist!"
"Go to the world where you can recruit soldiers first, and develop your Chapter properly. I'll come find you later. Oh, and take these books with you."
As long as the Lamenters can steadily grow stronger, Han Mingxuan will give him the original Gene-seed of the Blood Angels when he goes there later.
In this era, the Gene-seed of various Legions have undergone varying degrees of change, with the exception of Guilliman's Gene-seed.
Gene-seed mutations can be good or bad; some make them stronger, while others turn them into monsters.
Han Mingxuan possesses the original Gene-seed model that the Emperor gave him in the Luna Laboratory, which can be used in this matter.
"Mr. Han..."
"Don't rush to refuse, study carefully, I'll be taking the test when we meet later."
"Yes!"
"And you, Ms. Celestine, where do you plan to go next?"
"Now that the matter of the Lamenters has been resolved, I will follow you as per the God-Emperor's decree."
"Are you sure? If you're going to follow me, you'd better clean up your beliefs."
