Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 438 Black and Red, a Plan in the Shadows (23) Here
Lupacaria, the capital of the Moro planet world, is an ancient city that was destroyed by the Luna Wolf Legion at the end of the 32nd millennium.

Calvin has been here for more than a week with the main forces of the Tindalos Legion and the Sea Wolf Dalian Company who have been following the Tribunal fleet.

A week is too short a time to make even the simplest renovations to the ruins.

But fortunately, the soldiers of the Tindalos Legion are veterans selected from various battlefields.

Those who survived all kinds of fierce battles have never experienced anything poor, so they naturally know where to use limited engineering vehicles and more valuable building materials.

The site selection of the defensive position was selected on the orbit, and with the full support of the fleet scanning array, the engineering force was extremely purposeful and the progress was very smooth.

A large number of bunkers were selected with reference to the local terrain, and then quickly built under the focused assault of legionnaires and engineering vehicles;
The trenches connecting these bunkers were first dug shallowly by the soldiers, and then handed over to the armored forces to deepen and reinforce them again.

This is where the benefits of having an industrial manufacturing system like the Krieger Alliance lie.

What the Tindalos Legion lacks most is small engineering equipment. Even under the premise of not being able to carry a large number of engineering vehicles, Krieger's engineers shoveled enough engineering to the warehouse of the battleship long before the large fleet returned to Terra. .

Armor troops also welcome this kind of equipment, because it is made of fine gold after molecular casting and quenching coating, which is extremely thick and strong additional armor.

So while the soldiers of the Infantry Regiment were still exploring and planning the defense line of Lupakalia, the soldiers of the Panzer Corps were waiting for the arrival of the transport fleet.

The technical priests who accompanied the army were assembled on the landing field to stand by. When these engineering shovels were sent to the surface, a large number of welding projects took less than half a day in total.

As a result, more temporary construction vehicles appeared on the ruins, and large and small trenches and fortifications were formed one by one.

Although this line of defense cannot be compared with the eternal defense system, a simple but practical defense line gradually took shape in the next few days.

The knights from Hepper's Foundry World came later, and the landing ship dropped these knight titans directly above the defense line. When more than a thousand Astartes from Seawolf Dalian also landed with supplies, the entire Lupacaria The line of defense was finally formed.

+ How many people still haven't come back? +
Calvin was walking on the main road on the top floor of the Unremitting Jihad, the communicator in his ear was having a meeting with the executives of the fleet and troops, and he was talking with the new Chief Purifier, Turabo, in the psychic channel.

Not long ago, Turab, along with all the Purifiers, received Calvin's psychic seed implantation procedure in the medical department of the Indefatigable Jihad.

It took him less than three days to survive the initial psychic shock period, and immediately began to take over the management of the legion in Zhan Morrow.

This speed of adaptation obviously exceeded Calvin and himself's expectations, because even the original honor guard took a whole year to adapt under Calvin's personal guidance.

The two also conducted a special review on this, and finally came to the conclusion that this rapid adaptability is related to Turabo's real name granted in Titan.

Granting his real name was undoubtedly a subversive change for him, and it could even be said to directly change his life form.After obtaining the real name, the purifier can be said to be no longer a mortal to some extent, but a higher-level life existence.

The strength of will and power, the difficulty of driving psionics and laws.

The most important thing is that after obtaining and understanding the language of "true name", Tulabo's ability to absorb huge amounts of information in psionic energy, and a new interpretation of life's observation scale of time.

From this perspective, the psychic seed given to him by the Primarch is no longer a clueless strange force, but an iterative upgrade based on the original code of "true name".

Similar to the "sons of Calvin" who use the "inscription" on their own genes to compare and decode, he can use the real name in his soul to interpret the "inscription".

Of course, this is based on Calvin's openness to his core information.

It is also the opening of this comprehensive information that made Turabo the first outsider who can intuitively understand the "secret of the inscription".The intuitive "vision" he possesses is a convenience that the honor guards never had.

And, the changes don't stop there.

The consequence of fully understanding and joining the "legion inscription system" is that in the third hundred years after Turab became a Gray Knight, his already formed body began to grow for the second time driven by the instinct to imitate the other sons of Calvin signs of development.

And the special attribute of "destroying demons" that he himself possessed also began to appear on the soldiers of the entire legion in reverse.This kind of influence not only appeared in the Gray Knights company near Zhan Morrow, but even the "Sons of Calvin" in other directions also had the same change.

At this time, the Gray Knights Legion is like a lake that has been thrown into ice cubes. The "ice cube" of Tulabo is not only soaked by this lake in the turbulent ripples, but also has a subtle influence on the entire legion at the same time. .

But this kind of thing did not work overnight, so neither Calvin nor Turab himself discovered these details.

Both of them were focused on the current battle, and after the chief purifier finished adapting to the psionic seeds, he went straight to the work of dispatching the legion.

As for the rest of the purifiers, they are much more normal. They don't have the means of intuitive observation of the essence of the "inscription", and the adaptation to the spiritual energy seeds can only be explored and summarized by their own mortal souls.

The speed of collecting and comprehending this kind of information is far from being comparable to that of the Sons of Calvin, and it is even less likely to be comparable to that of Tulabo, who has a real name.

Calvin checked the progress of their exploration and adaptation. Without the guidance of the Primarch himself, the most optimistic estimate would take a full hundred years...

+Four teams, according to your order, they are responsible for the anti-infiltration operations against the various galaxies behind after the next stage of the war begins.Five of the remaining sixteen teams were wounded, and there were no battle damage. They were on their way back and could arrive tomorrow at the latest. +
Chief Purifier Turabo stopped on the other side of the battleship and responded to Calvin on the Legion's communication channel.

+Got it, where's the honor guard?Is there any news from Hepper yet? +
Calvin squinted his eyes, and he had already predicted the worst of the situation in that forging world. If the other party still maintained this attitude under the order of the trial court, then he felt that it was necessary to visit it in person.

"There is news, wait a moment..." Tulabo said, and sent the psychic information group he received to the Primarch, and Calvin on the other side of the battle saw a scene that he never expected in the next moment. screen of...
