Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

…

Studying is always boring.

Especially traditional learning methods.

Diana received a full month of study in the Legion. She learned quickly, but in this month she only learned what responsibilities she had as a captain and what the responsibilities of the two operating officers were.

The main reason was that Oumen and the higher-ups of the legion spent a lot of time telling Diana about rituals, but there wasn't much real information.

But this is not because Oumen deliberately does not teach important things, it is just that in their eyes, rituals are the most important.

Titan is called the God's Machine and is highly valued in the Mechanicus Order. Naturally, there are many rituals.

In the case of organic souls, these rituals are not useless.

Whenever Diana felt that the ritual was useless, Omun would convince her with his own experience.

A thousand years ago, Oumn lost contact with the Titan on the battlefield. At that time, the Titan was damaged, and the only thing the crew could do was pray and perform rituals to the Oumm Messiah in the command deck.

Then the Titan raised his arm and fired a shot at the slowly approaching enemy Titan.

Diana, who was persuaded by Omn, realized the importance of the ceremony and would seriously learn how to perform it.

Omuen is no longer dormant. He always personally educates Diana, allowing this newcomer to enjoy treatment that is rare in the entire galaxy.

It wasn't until one day when Qin Mo brought Yaoen's guards to the celestial engine and visited the legion's station that Omuen stopped teaching Diana in person.

"How many times should the censer be shaken when decorating the command throne with incense?"

"Once, twice, three times, until the end of the third time."

"Very good, then how many steps are there in the ritual process when connecting with the machine soul?"

"Seventy-two steps."

"..."

Qin Mo and Yao En stood side by side by the second-floor window of the legion hangar, looking down at Diana who was undergoing ritual training at the feet of Titan.

"It can be seen that she really likes to drive Titan." Yaoen suddenly said, "Otherwise, with my daughter's character, she would not have the patience to learn this."

"I can tell." Qin Mo nodded.

At this time, the priest of the Cult Mechanicus walked into the room. Behind him were a dozen servitors. These servitors entered the room carrying the tank containing Omuen, and then gently placed the tank on the ground.

"Praise Oum Messiah!" Oumen's limbs were gone, and his body had deteriorated to the point where he could no longer move. He could only salute Qin Mo with words.

"Praise Oum Messiah." Qin Mo nodded repeatedly, then raised his hand to let Oum Enneng leave the jar.

Omun felt that his body was floating, penetrating the tempered glass of the tank, and his flesh was exposed to the air.

He was afraid at first because once his body was exposed to the air, he might be infected with many germs. After all, his immune system had long been gone.

But Oumen soon discovered that his body was no different from that in the tank, except that he could feel the outside air touching his skin and breathe fresh air. The respirator no longer only contained the stinky smell that had been circulated countless times. gas.

While Qin Mo was enjoying Omuen, he carefully adjusted the physical rules of Omuen and his body to ensure that he would not be harmed by germs in the air or other types of external damage.

"You know you don't have to be soaked in a jar, right?" Qin Mo glanced at Omuen, "You can go to Taiwei to undergo prosthetic transformation."

"I know, but I just want to be able to come out and let the air flow occasionally. I don't want to leave this jar forever." Oumen shook his head and said.

Hearing this, Yaoen couldn't understand, but Qin Mo knew what Oumen was thinking.

Titan pilots are extremely obsessed with the connection with the Titan. When they pilot the Titan, they will have a feeling of omnipotence and destruction.

While on Titan, Omn was the captain of the Agrippina's Glory, capable of annihilating an entire regiment of infantry with a single fire.

When not on Titan, Omun is just a disabled man soaking in a jar. Even a child with a file can poke the jar and kill Omun.

"Perhaps I can upload you into the Titan and integrate you with the Glory of Agrippina forever." Qin Mo said.

"Is this really possible?" Oumen was very surprised, but his facial muscles had deteriorated and he couldn't even express excitement.

"Maybe." Qin Mo just speculated.

Under normal circumstances, it is possible, but the Glory of Agrippina is a Titan with a long history. It has an organic soul. If Omuen's consciousness is uploaded into the Titan, it may have unpredictable consequences.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, but you have to start.

Qin Mo wants to try to store a person's soul into another type of personality matrix, which requires a lot of experiments.

After thinking about it, Qin Mo returned to the topic: "Actually, Diana doesn't need to learn rituals or anything."

Oumen wanted to explain, but he didn't have time to speak.

"I know that you think the ritual is useful. In fact, it is useful. I have to admit it."

"But Diana is a soulless person. Lowering the suppressor on her body by ten percent is enough to make the Martian Witch immune to any supernatural phenomena or subspace energy."

Warp energy, paranormal phenomena.

Omuen knew that this was a conclusion drawn by the Tyrone people from studying the subspace. They believed that powerful god-like creatures existed, and also believed that machine spirits existed. After verification, they also admitted that all the rituals performed by the National Religion and the Mechanicus had real meanings. Functional.

But they believe that rituals are just a means of invoking subspace energy to interfere with reality.

If you think about it this way, there is really no need for Diana, a powerful soulless person, to learn the ritual, because the ritual has no effect on her except a waste of time.

It is impossible for the Mars Witch equipped with a medium that can use the power of the Star God to produce a machine soul. The only thing close to the machine soul is the intelligent system implanted with the personality matrix.

"I will terminate Diana's ritual course immediately." Omun's head shook up and down with difficulty, as if in a salute, "You have the final say."

Yao En was even more confused at this time. He could not understand why the Agrippina people were so respectful to the Lord of Tyrone. The ruling sage named Vic actually abandoned his Titan Legion so that the Legion could fight in Tyrone. Sector service.

And the lord of the Titan Legion in front of him... He does not need to salute the Star Governor, and can even forcibly requisition the Star's population and supplies.

"I will let Diana start actual combat training, starting with formation training." Oum Enhui reported.

"You are the high-level manager of the legion, and Diana is your subordinate. You can make arrangements for her at will." Qin Mo nodded.

Oumen nodded and was silent for a while.
