"I'm very curious why all the Empire's warships are named Emperor So-and-So or Imperial So-and-So."

Corax stared intently at the Queen of Glory-class battleship in front of him, the Emperor's Shadow, which was given to him by Yang Cheng.

This huge and majestic warship was quietly parked in the spaceport, its metal shell flashing a cold light, like a sleeping beast waiting to be awakened.

Next to Corax, stood a number of fully armed Raven Guard Space Marines dressed in black power armor.

At this time, a tall man with a resolute face walked up to Corax and said respectfully: "Father, let me show you around this warship."

This man is Kevan Stryker, the current Shadow Master of the Raven Guard, whose status is equivalent to that of a Chapter Master.

Before the fall of Pryftica, he was Shadow Captain of the 3rd Company.

Kewane Stryker was born into the chaotic and violent world of Kiawah.

When he was young, life was very hard and he had to run errands for the notorious Hive gangs in order to survive.

However, the young Stryker was no ordinary man. During one of his missions, he was chased by members of a hostile gang.

With his agility and wisdom, he successfully avoided the enemy's pursuit and interception time and time again. But in the end, he was forced into a desperate situation.

Faced with the vicious pursuers, Stryker was not afraid and fought back.

In this thrilling battle, he actually killed four enemies in one fell swoop, but unfortunately, he was arrested and imprisoned.

In prison, Stryker suffered extremely cruel torture, but he never gave in, with an unyielding fire burning in his heart.

Finally, after experiencing countless hardships, he found an opportunity, miraculously escaped from the cage, and launched a bloody revenge on the rival gangs that had persecuted him, and more enemies died at his hands.

This series of heroic and fearless performances attracted the great attention of the priests of the Raven Guard.

They were keenly aware of the great potential in Stryker and believed that he would become an outstanding space warrior, so they recruited him into the legion.

Although he was full of resistance to the priests in his heart, Stryker was still unable to change the trajectory of his destiny.

Driven by a powerful force, he was sent to the home planet of the Raven Guard.

This planet became the starting point of a turning point in his life, and would also witness his gradual transformation from an ordinary man into a space warrior that terrorized the empire.

When Stryker first arrived at the Savior Star, he was just a lowly and unknown newcomer.

However, with his indomitable will and extraordinary talent, he stood out in the rigorous training system of the Raven Guard.

As time went by, he overcame numerous difficulties and obstacles and finally won the recognition and appreciation of the top leaders of the Raven Guard.

In battle after battle, Stryker continued to accumulate experience and improve his strength.

When his predecessor, Alerin, was seriously injured for his heroic fighting and eventually had to be buried in a dreadnought to continue fighting to defend the empire; when another comrade, Korvin Siflux, was promoted to chapter master for his outstanding performance, Stryker had his own highlight moment.

He was successfully promoted to the commander of the 3rd Company of the Raven Guard, shouldering a more important and difficult mission.

One day, the Tagus galaxy suffered a fierce invasion from barbaric orcs.

Faced with this sudden crisis, Stryker led his Third Company and plunged into the battle without hesitation.

According to the initial strategic deployment, their mission was to destroy the Ork orbital defense facilities entrenched above the planet Tagus VIII.

This was undoubtedly a very challenging mission, but Stryker and his men demonstrated extraordinary courage and superb tactical qualities.

It didn't take long for them to successfully complete this seemingly impossible task.

Just when everyone thought they could breathe a sigh of relief, an accident happened.

Unfortunately, the Thunderhawk gunship that came to help them evacuate the battlefield was ambushed by the orcs in orbit and was completely destroyed. Having lost their only retreat, Stryker and his company were instantly in a desperate situation.

But they were not discouraged or despaired. On the contrary, under Stryker's calm and composed command, they decided to stay on this fallen planet and launch a protracted guerrilla war with the orcs.

Over the next two long years, Stryker led his company deep behind enemy lines, appearing and disappearing like a ghost.

They cleverly used the terrain advantages and the enemy's weaknesses to suddenly attack the orcs' fragile supply lines without any warning, causing great chaos and losses to the enemy.

At the same time, they also actively collected intelligence and provided a large amount of extremely valuable reconnaissance data to the Imperial Navy ships that were struggling to hold on in orbit, providing strong support to the entire war situation.

Stryker is very proficient in guerrilla tactics, which makes him as elusive as a ghost.

He often leads his elite team and takes action without leaving any traces.

Each attack on the orcs was so precise and deadly that they were able to inflict a heavy blow on the enemy before they could react.

After successfully implementing this amazing combat method many times, Stryker became famous.

However, fate is always full of variables and challenges. One day, Stryker learned a piece of bad news that shocked the entire Raven Guard.

Their Chapter Master, Korvin Severux, and most of the members of the Third Company, were brutally killed by the Tau Empire's Commander "Shadow Sun".

Faced with such huge losses and tragic failures, Stryker did not fall into despair.

Instead, he quickly rallied and resolutely led a counterattack, ultimately successfully recovering the majority of the Chapter's vital gene-seed.

It was this heroic and significant counterattack, coupled with Stryker's past outstanding performance and achievements, that made him stand out among his many Shadow Company Captain comrades.

It was agreed that only a man like Stryker could take on the role of Chapter Master.

As a result, Stryker was elected as the new chapter master of the Raven Guard as expected.

While Stryker was taking Corax to visit the battleship, Yang Cheng got the location of a Primarch, so he ran over there again with Malcador, who had just returned from the Savior Planet.
