Chapter 626: Agman and Calgar

"Is father...here?"

The person who spoke was the captain of the Ultramarines First Company, Severus Agman. This experienced and meritorious captain was standing on the deck of the battleship, his eyes revealing a hint of fatigue and anticipation.

Severus Agammann, the current captain of the 1st Company, an elite veteran company of the Ultramarines, not only possesses outstanding combat skills and leadership, but is also known for his indomitable will and persistent pursuit of the glory of the Empire.

He serves as Regent of Ultramar whenever the Chapter Master is away, taking on the responsibility of governing his home world of Macragge, among other important duties.

Agman has commanded a company for over two hundred years, since the end of the First Tyrannic War.

During these long years, he always stayed at his post, guarding the peace and tranquility of Ultramar.

Whether facing horrific alien creatures or the corruption of the warp within, he threw himself into the battle without hesitation, defending the territory of the empire with his life.

After the Plague War in Ultramar, Agman was chosen by his resurrected Primarch, Roboute Guilliman, now Lord Commander of the Imperium, to be one of the rulers of the restored order in Ultramar.

Compared with other heroes in the Ultramarines Legion, Aggerman may not be very eye-catching, mainly because the others are so awesome that Aggerman seems to have little presence.

"Father? Father is back!"

Ionid Hill, the sergeant of the 13th Company of the 135th Ultramarines Chapter, shouted excitedly.

After the Horus Heresy, Ionid Hill became Captain of the 2nd Company of the Ultramarines Legion and took part in the Battle of Thessala, where he saved Roboute Guilliman from being mortally wounded by Fulgrim.

However, when it comes to Hill's most famous thing, we have to mention his nickname, "Red Helmet" Hill.

During the Great Crusade, it was customary to stamp a red badge on a helmet as a sign of punishment, but after Hill's heroic act, the red badge would become a badge of honor rather than a punishment.

After the Battle of Calth, officers of the Ultramarines Chapter began to paint their helmets red to indicate their rank.

"Quiet! The Lord of the Legion has arrived!" With this shout, all the Space Marines of the Ultramarines Legion immediately fell silent.

They looked intently in the same direction, as if waiting for some important person to appear.

Sure enough, a tall figure slowly approached. This figure was a head taller than the other Space Marines, and looked particularly majestic and solemn.

He is Marius Augustus Calgar, Chapter Master of the Ultramarines, Guardian of Greater Ultramar, and Lord of Macragge.

Calgar is a highly respected leader with exceptional combat skills and leadership abilities.

He is one of the first known Space Marines to undergo the mysterious transformation surgery to become a Primaris Space Marine.

His strength and courage are among the best in the entire legion and he is considered a legend within the legion.

Within the Legion, his achievements are second only to the Primarch Robert Guilliman, and he is an awe-inspiring presence.

In the center of Hera's fortress, there is a hidden basement.

Here are preserved the exploits of the Ultramarines' greatest heroes, bearing witness to their glorious history and heroic deeds.

In this sacred place, there are twenty-eight volumes devoted to recording Kalgar’s exploits to date.

These volumes record in detail his every victory, every challenge, and every effort he made to defend humanity.

This number is twice as many as any other Ultramarines alive today, surpassed only by the Primarch Roboute Guilliman.

Behind Calgar, Guilliman was walking out slowly in a white robe. His figure was tall and majestic, exuding an awe-inspiring aura.

"Father!"

Dozens of Space Marine captains and chapter masters looked at Guilliman in surprise, their eyes full of reverence and expectation. Then, they shouted excitedly, their voices revealing their deep respect for Guilliman.

"Father...you call me...father?" Guilliman was slightly stunned. His eyes swept over every Space Marine, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

"Yes! My lord! We are all made of your genes! Your blood flows in our bodies!" Karga said excitedly, his voice trembling with excitement.

Although Guilliman had already learned the whole story from Yang Cheng, he was still a little surprised when he actually faced these Space Marines.

These Space Marines stood before him, their presence a testament to the continuation of his genetic heritage and power.

Guilliman took a deep breath, his expression gradually returning to calm.

"Report the number of legion members and the current mission of the legion." Guilliman's voice was low and powerful, and his eyes swept over every Space Marine, hoping to learn more about the situation of his own legion.

"Father! There are a total of 256,532 people in our legion! There are no tasks assigned to us at the moment!" Karga reported quickly.

Guilliman nodded and motioned for Calgar to continue.

"Although the current number of legion members is 256,532, more than 6,000 of them are members of an unknown regiment summoned by Huron. Because we are unclear about the situation of their gene seeds, we have temporarily placed them in our legion." Calgar continued to report.

"Very good. After arranging two chapters to defend the Ultramar sector, quickly mobilize the fleet. I will ask my father for instructions on the next actions."

Guilliman quickly arranged the next work, and the members of the Ultramarines Legion would be selected from the Ultramar sector in the future.

"By the way, Karga, I'll leave him to you."

Guilliman sent Vala beside him to Calgar, and then spoke slowly.

"Understood, my lord."

Kalga half-knelt in front of Vala and then picked her up.

"Take him to undergo the Space Marine transformation surgery, and then see which company he will be assigned to."

After explaining everything clearly, Guilliman immediately came to the office prepared for him by Calgar.

"These are the Corps' most recent documents, as well as the current war situation report, reports from various departments within the Empire, and Chancellor Palpatine's 199th request for retirement. Please have a look."

Piles and piles of documents were piled in front of Guilliman until Guilliman's body was hidden behind the documents.
