Chapter 319: Saving Private Perturabo
Looking at the group of big guys over three meters tall in front of him, Hogg swallowed his saliva helplessly. The more he looked at them, the weirder it seemed.
After observing it twice and confirming that it was not an illusion, Hogg looked up and asked, "Dantioch, how did you become so big? I remember that the Iron Warriors were not much taller than the Black Watch."
If he heard someone talking about the Iron Warriors, Dantioch would definitely teach him a lesson with his iron fist, but Blackwatch was different. The best of them all shared a warship, not to mention the Primarch Hogg:
"Sir, our Iron Warrior has been working out recently. He has strong muscles under his armor. He should be experiencing secondary growth."
God damn secondary development, Hogg didn't know that gene seeds had such a function. He would rather believe that these gluttons got fat than believe in this nonsense about secondary development.
Feeling frightened by Hogg's stare, Dantioch quickly changed the subject and asked again about their father's whereabouts.
For today's Iron Warriors, they have never given up the search for Perturabo in these ten thousand years, but even after searching the entire galaxy, they still find nothing in the end.
After repeated setbacks, the Fourth Legion finally came to its senses and, except for routine dust patrols, all of them retreated to the lower deck of the Blacklight, only coming out at mealtime to show off their food like crazy.
This time, it was when Dantioch and his companions were taking a walk after eating and drinking that they learned about Hogg's return, and came to ask with the idea of giving it a try.
Looking at the good uncle in front of them, they were ready to return disappointed, but as soon as Hogg opened his mouth, they instantly perked up.
"You've asked the right person. Pepe and I have the best relationship, so of course I know where he is!"
Hearing that Hogg knew his father's whereabouts, several stonemasons were overjoyed. Dantioch could not control himself and directly lifted Hogg up, as happy as an 800-pound silly child.
"Sir, I know you are the most reliable. Tell us where our father is. Don't worry, as long as you tell us, we can find him ourselves without you having to do anything."
"Ah, I think we should take a long-term view. As an elder, I can't just watch you die!"
Seeing Hogg's conflicted look, Dantioch thought that Hogg was looking down on him, so he just put the good uncle on the table.
As powerful music sounded, three big guys in thick clothes put on arrogant postures, and their three bloated faces were filled with endless tyranny that was unrivaled in the world.
(True, hegemony)
"Ah~well, did you see that, sir? This is the true strength of us~en~ye Iron Warriors."
If a beautiful woman posed in front of him, Hogg might be excited and waved his flag, but if three fat guys did this, it would only make him feel both mentally and physically uncomfortable.
In order to relieve his headache, he lit a cigarette, and after taking a deep breath, Hogg couldn't bear it anymore. He held the fat boy with both arms and hit him with his knee. With the sound of metal breaking, the two supporting actors were forced to kneel on the ground and cover their crotches.
Then, while Dantioch was stunned, he grabbed the shoulder armor with his backhand and hit the fat guy who made him sick:
"Snapped!"
"Pose, huh?"ψ(`)ψ
"Snap! Snap!"
"You are just trying to be naughty, right? I think you are itching for trouble."
The two big guys fought so hard that Danteok was seeing stars. He was no longer as reckless and frivolous as before. He kept crying to his uncle to spare his life and said he would never do it again.
Hogg stretched out three arms and reclassified the three into medium, large, and extra large cups. He pointed at the extra large cup that had been beaten into a pig's head and said:
"Nephew, I'm not telling you because it's for your own good. Pepe is trapped in a very difficult place right now, and you guys are just good-for-nothings."
"Sir, we not only know how to eat, we also know how to beat the ashes!" said Soltarn, who had a big cup. "..."
Hogg punched the ignorant fat boy again, then took out the speaker and threw it to Dantioch.
"Call yourself and see if your dad agrees with you going to rescue him."
Danteok, who had used it before, knew the magic of this speaker. After looking at his companions, he firmly pressed the big red button.
With a burst of electric noise, supported by unknown black technology, the two speakers in different planes were connected. But before Dantioch could ask any questions, he heard the other end shouting:
"Damn Kobold, come out if you dare, I'm Perturabo, I'm made of steel inside and out"
"..."
Without waiting for Perturabo to continue shouting, Dantioch hung up the speaker. As a veteran who had lived and eaten with Blackwatch for ten thousand years, he was no longer the ignorant newbie he used to be.
Hearing his father scolding the kobolds, combined with Hogg's warning just now, Dantioch knew without hesitation where Perturabo was at this moment.
"Well, sir! I was indeed a bit arrogant just now. You are right. Since my father's voice is so loud, he must be alive and well. We should take a long-term view on the operation to rescue my father."
"Me too x2"
Without getting hung up on the "kind father and filial son" relationship between the three fat guys, Hogg pointed to the lab table and explained his plan to them:
“Now that I know where Perturabo is, I will definitely find a way to rescue him, but you are also aware of the current situation. Our strength is not as good as before.
Instead of being anxious, it is better to prepare the military and accumulate enough strength to make the final decision. "
Even though what he said were all empty words, Fatty and the other two still believed in Hogg. It was not because he was reliable, but because in the current situation, they had no one else to rely on.
Unlike the other Legions, due to Perturabo's awkward personality, the Iron Warriors do not have a very close relationship with other Legions, even though it has improved greatly, and only get along well with the Thousand Sons and Black Watch.
As for the unfortunate Thousand Sons, they had never recovered since the Great Heresy, and their numbers had dwindled to the point where they could only transform themselves into the Grey Knights, becoming an official organization of the Empire.
Therefore, the Iron Warriors really have no choice but to blend in with Blackwatch and rely on contracting plastering projects to avoid starving to death.
Even though they make money by being contractors, the Iron Warriors don't have an easy time, because there is another group of civil engineering guys in the Empire who compete with them everywhere.
Hearing that their uncle was willing to help, the three of them agreed without thinking. After all, although Hogg was unreliable, he had never lied to the younger generations like them. In such an important matter, the three of them could still clearly distinguish who was closer to them.
"So, sir, what is your plan?" asked Andraz, who was a big cup.
Hogg spread his hands, pointed at the busy Pluto transfer station outside the observation window, and said:
"Of course I'll go find the parents. Do you want me to fight the evil god?"
