Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 458 Black and Red, a Plan in the Shadows (43) Battle of the Titans
Boom!
The light that could not be seen directly dimmed gradually, and Calvin's figure could be seen clearly again, the shield that lost the external attack disappeared into the air again, and the countless ammunition fired at the Primarch were piled together and mixed together.

Then it was crushed into unrecognizable scrap iron by Calvin with spiritual power, and it was smashed to the ground with the effect of gravity.

Energy Shield Remaining: 91% (recovering)
Armor damage: 0% (spare repairable materials: 1000T)

Targets killed: 1500+ (including non-carbon-based life units)
Will strength reduction: 30% (recommended rest)
Calvin slowly landed on the ground, "Hybrion's Blessing" in his pupils was summarizing the battle data just now.

A super-level AOE strike is of course based on his powerful psychic power, but the precise tracking of each target relies on the convenience of his brain structure.

Both are taxing on the brain, so even Primarchs need time to recover after a fight is over.

The strength of the will is not absolutely quantified, but driven by the will of the mind - the soul.

Psychic energy is the projection of psychic power in reality. The strength of its interference and influence on reality, after eliminating the amplification of subspace power, will be consumed by every ounce of will, and the overall strength will be determined by Weakened from the inside out.

Once the overall intensity drops below 30%, even Calvin will inevitably fall into a coma of self-protection.

This is the principle that prevails among all psykers, and what is different from other psykers is that when Calvin uses his will as a bargaining chip to stir up psychic energy, his consumption is far greater than that of ordinary psykers.

Similar to Calvin, it is the emperor, or the former Horus can also be counted as half after becoming the "Four Gods".

The opposite representative is Magnus. He and all other psychic users paid a far lower price than the first three when actually using it.

The power of the former is based on the acquisition of power (authority) by the soul, and thus wields powerful power with authority as the core.

When this kind of crude and simple power is cast, the price paid is huge, but just like his soul that is the basis of all spellcasting, the power as solid as gold and stone also cannot be tampered with or shaken by anyone.

The latter does not have the conditions of the former, and can only use the wisdom of mortals to use the smallest force as a "pry board" to guide the direction of greater power layer by layer.

But it is precisely because of his "exquisite" structure and self-conceived precise calculations that his spells are like the glass foundation of a magnificent building in front of equal or even more powerful beings-only small destruction and guidance are needed, and other The final result will deviate from the goal by thousands of miles...

At this time, there were no signs of life in the open space in the canyon. Except for the primarch itself, all the Word Bearers and fallen knight titans were reduced to dust under Calvin's full power.

This Astartes force of more than a thousand is obviously the absolute main force of the enemy. When their signal disappeared from the enemy's communication channel, the entire Lupacaglia war process fell into an eerie calm. Stagnation.

However, this is only a temporary calm, because the enemy possesses far more power than that. Just as Calvin carried the flying Imperial Truth on his back again, the space wolves in the distance have already passed the gray knight, using the legion's psychic power The link sent him a new danger signal ahead.

+Level [-] alert, there are a lot of heavy vehicles on the track, and they are outside the coverage of anti-aircraft fire. +
A short report, accompanied by an equally brief first-person observation memory, came to Calvin's mind.

And it was the emergence of this memory that made Calvin feel the pressure again, and at the same time, it also got the verification of his conjecture about the strategic intentions of the Word Bearers at the beginning.

But he still needs final confirmation.

+ I remember, Moro has been at war for a week? +
From that memory, Calvin found the targets under the guard of the aircraft fleet, and instantly recognized that they belonged to the characteristics of the Titan Ark. While comparing them in the database, he asked the wolf Hoffman who was in charge of the battle situation.

Although Hoffman didn't know Calvin's intentions, he instinctively confirmed Calvin's question from the battleship, and then gave an affirmative answer.

"That is to say, for a whole week, the nearby astropaths didn't hear the echo of any fleet in the subspace channel?"

"I'm afraid it is..." Hoffman looked at the data collected on the servo, and verified Calvin's conjecture with an affirmative answer.

"Understood." Calvin watched the enemy's Titan Ark land from a position far away from the front line, and finally confirmed the enemy's intentions.

The target of these Word Bearers from beginning to end was not the Jamoro sector, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why the enemy did not take any actions to bypass the Jamoro-Otto line under the superior force.

Their target was Moro from the very beginning, or, they were forced by the war situation step by step to join the Moro battlefield in person!
Lord of Murder...

In the middle of the bloody gear, the emblem of a serpentine sword surrounded by two drops of blood was recognized by "Hybrion's Blessing".

And the participation of this second-tier Titan Legion, once named Lord of Courage, originating from the Forge World Faus II, means that the fallen Word Bearers Legion will appear more than a dozen in the counterattack after being hit. Help from the high-ranking titans!
At least it is a warlord-level Titan, and judging from the number of Titan Arks, there will be no less than ten machines.

Calvin took a deep breath. The battlefield seemed calm at this time, but the real threat that could threaten the entire Lucapaglia was already in sight!
Hepper's support, even according to the most optimistic estimate, still has three days to arrive.

Although the battlefield on Otto's front line is over, they also need time to rest.

At this time, what Moro lacks the most is time...

Calvin looked to the top of the mountain behind the position. Among the hidden underground fortifications there was the standby position of the Psionic Titan, the Imperial Political Commissar.

The only one who can fight against the Titan is the Titan, and this psychic Titan is the only existence that can fight against the Lord of Murder after Calvin has counted the power in his hand.

But the problem is that only Calvin can withstand its power, and if Calvin wants to drive it to fight against the Lord of Murder, can the sea wolves who have already lost more than half of them be able to stop the Word Bearers from attacking again?

It would be great if someone could take his place, but what's it like to be able to pilot a psionic titan... Speyer?

Driving an Imperial Titan...

Purely from the state of the soul, the body that controls the liquid metal of psionic energy...

Can have a strong enough and pure will to theoretically form a link with the pure land of the soul and share Calvin's spiritual energy!

This is simply the best candidate fate bestowed upon Calvin, and the only condition he lacked was a contract with Calvin...

Thinking of this, Calvin immediately took out the badge belonging to the Omen Order from his waist, and Speyer, who was dormant, was awakened by Calvin and informed the current situation.

"So, you are asking me for faith?" Speyer looked at Calvin calmly.

"Yes." Calvin replied.

"Even if you know my ideas?" The pilot's tone became calmer, and Calvin knew that the possibility of persuading him was disappearing.

"I swear, you know that." Calvin's tone also calmed down.

"I have sworn that the ultimate fate of this pure land will not belong to me, and I will give my all for the hope of the empire and mankind."

"For the Empire and humanity?" Speyer asked, before interrupting Calvin's attempt to speak.

A look of memory flashed across his eyes, and after staring at the land that had been ravaged by Warmaster Horus, he said to Calvin, "I believe in you."

boom!
Under the evergreen hills behind the city of Lupacaria, the Imperial Political Commissar was surrounded by a group of mechanical priests, and the plasma engine was awakened by the ringing of the big bell. It is a soul that has also experienced vicissitudes!

　The first update, the second update will be later, or tomorrow morning, sorry for being a little tired.
