Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 86
"Eat... why don't you eat?"

In the special canteen of the Champion Hall, Calvin was eating an unknown number of special food.

Sitting around watching him eat were comrades in the honor guard who hadn't seen each other for five years.

After enjoying his first solid meal after five years, Calvin put down the knife and fork in his hand.

He looked at the quiet comrades around him. Five years was not a long time, but it was enough for several hearty battles to take place.

These paladins wearing Terminator-type power armor in front of them, when they are not fulfilling the mission of the honor guard, exist more to provide protection for the Grand Master on the battlefield.

Project the most powerful force in the most dangerous place, and perform the most stable and reliable guardian function in the most dangerous place.

This is the daily life of paladins.

Outside of their day-to-day protective duties, they themselves are usually on the battlefield as one of the strongest individual soldiers.

Therefore, as the strongest other than the Grand Master, they are also most often regarded as the "sharp knife" part of the psionic discipline, used to break through the strongest defense line or kill the most evil enemy.

If it is too rigid, it is easy to break, so the battle loss rate of the Paladin, which has always been used as the tip of the knife, has always remained high.

When they are asked to perform tasks other than their own guards on the battlefield, it usually means that the battle situation has been very difficult.

The commander needs to put his second-ranked reserve force into the battle to reverse the chance of victory.

Therefore, he either directly smashed the opponent's leader's face under the enhanced spiritual power of the gray knights of the team, and if he won, he would cut the opponent's team on the spot; , but the snatched back is still not alive, so there is no guarantee.

Fortunately, they were brave enough and lucky enough for Calvin to see their faces intact after waking up from this hibernation.

However, danger on the battlefield is unavoidable, so these paladins have more or less scars on their armor or faces that cannot be erased by time.

After walking around these veterans, Calvin asked everyone. "Which company are you with now?"

"Our combat organization is not the same as that of the paladins now. During the current duty period, we are all 4-4. I am on the team and Golden is on the team. The rest of the people rotate."

Gasvin replied, and then he patted himself on the forehead under Calvin's curious eyes, took out the psionic seed that Calvin left behind at first, and said in his hand:
"Because of this, we can still maintain the same frequency at a limited distance even when you are not around. So our tactical positioning has been permanently changed."

When he saw that seed, Calvin understood the reason for all this.

"Ah, the secondary sub-channel formed spontaneously after leaving the mother body? This is very interesting."

The same frequency is also the same frequency on a small scale, and he still has unparalleled special effects in tactics.Especially in some special terrains and formations, this kind of thinking sharing and frequency sharing will make the weight of one's own formation geometrically multiplied. After all, four Terminator and one consciousness control four Terminator are completely different firepower densities.

Calvin's only question now is how different the seed has become from the body after losing contact with the body for so long.

And will this difference affect its communication with the mother?If not, are these differences necessary to fix?

Calvin took the psionic "seed" in Gavins' hands, and he could feel the echo of this seed to his mother.

There is no problem with communication, although the channel of thinking communication is much less than the latest one, but this is a version problem, just upgrade it.

Below this is the state of the entire seed, which also grows according to one of the several possible directions preset by Calvin.

This also made Calvin breathe a sigh of relief, because any changes that may occur at this stage, even if they seem to have a lot of benefits, are definitely not what Calvin wants.

That means that under the dual interference of psionic energy and subspace, the growth setting of the seed has gone out of control.

Once this situation occurs, Calvin's best solution is to find all users of this seed and take back the seed.

Seal it up completely, deprecate it, and never enable it.

After all, there are stories about the Thousand Sons in the materials handed down by the old people, and Calvin has already clearly understood them.

In matters related to psionics and the Warp, any fluke may eventually lead to the intrigue and malice of the Master of Change.

Calvin would rather get only the most clumsy results from every experiment and exploration than to see those "accidents and surprises" that may appear.

The "seed" or anchor point of psychic energy taken out of Gavins in front of him made Calvin very pleased with its stability and the purity of Gavins' psychic energy.

If either of the two is lacking, the state of this seed will not be so perfect now that it has been five years since Calvin left.

Calvin gently lifted the "seed" of spiritual energy in his palm, clasped his hands together and closed his eyes to infuse his own spiritual energy into it.

The latest psionic traits about him were then imbued into this seed, which naturally included a little bit of understanding and traits about redemption.

After he returned the seed to Gavins, Gavins put it back on his forehead.

After completing more than one procedure with all members of the guard, Calvin chatted with them about what happened before Calvin fell into a coma.

"So, three extermination orders at the end?" Calvin asked.

"Yes, three, all in El Fran," Gavins replied.

"We have one for them?" Calvin continued.

"Indeed, bipolar cyclone torpedoes are restricted by the imperial decree. Only two are allowed in a sector. The one on our ship was temporarily transferred from the Heshaus sector." Gavins said.

"Is it still used in the end?"

"Use it, only to find out on my return that a barge had taken 'it' before we set off."

"All right……"

The next day, Calvin returned to his residence, and first completed the atonement ceremony for the armor under the witness of the technical sergeant.

After putting on the well-maintained Terminator power armor with the help of the auxiliary machinery, he walked towards the church where the Grand Master was.

Inside one of Titan's main avenues, Calvin, in his characteristic gigantic, silver Terminator power armor, walked toward the Grand Master's office, located below the cathedral.

What awaits him is the final assessment and debriefing of this task, as well as the next task arrangement.

And what he was thinking on the way was not this, but about the information and clues he had collected while inside the atmosphere of SATA [-].

The documents Calvin obtained on SATA [-] about Imperial Governor Hyland had been sorted out and purified after he returned to Titan.

A timeline of disease contamination for the entire SATA segment can also be gleaned from other sources.

Although time has passed five years.But Calvin knew that none of the decision-makers on the Imperial side of the campaign that ended with the Order of Extermination was happy with it.

This is a manifestation of their incompetence, and it is also a disgrace to the entire Inquisition and the Gray Knights.

So any information about a blight on the SATA sector would be of interest to the Inquisition and the Gray Knights.

They have indeed been using this information to review the entire battle after the fact, in order to look for the fleeting chance of victory that may have existed at the beginning.
