Warhammer III

Chapter 1 Trial

A flag made of special material flies on the top of the room facing the second ridge of the Mitris Mountains in the fortress monastery. The flag is decorated with silver skulls on both ends, showing a solemn and sacred atmosphere.

The content on the top of the flag is the golden ancient Roman numeral 8 (8). In the middle, there is a warrior in silver armor holding a sword that penetrates the black skull and inserts it into the devil's eye below the flag.

The silver words of the Eighth Brotherhood of the Gray Knights "Silver Blade" are particularly eye-catching in the middle of the flag.

Under the flag passed a Gray Knight wearing silver Aegis power armor. His armor was tattooed with prayers and spells, and decorated with various exorcism runes.

The ground he walked upon was marked with the distinctive symbol of the Gray Knights Chapter: a sword pierced through an open book.

"we are the hammer!" (I am the hammer!)

He shouted the battle cry of the Gray Knights, and the many servitors in the room were instantly activated, starting a new round of screening of new recruits.

"Sir Sean, there are 64 psykers who passed the review this time. The oldest is 16 years old and the youngest is 13 years old. Black Ship has preliminarily tested their psychic levels."

The servitor next to Sean began to report in detail the levels of the 64 psykers:

1 level 1 alpha psyker;

1 Level 2 Beta Psyker;

2 level 3 gamma psykers;

6 level 4 delta psykers;

9 level 5 Ypsilon psykers;

12 level 6 Zeta psykers;

15 level 7 Eta psykers;

There are 18 level 8 theta psykers.

"There hasn't been an Alpha psyker in the war group for a long time. I hope he can control his psychic powers and successfully become a recruit. But it would be great if 2-3 psykers can pass the test and become recruits this time!"

Sean couldn't help but sigh, and then gave the order to the servitor:

"Start injecting cell activator, wake up all these psychics within an hour, conduct regular physical training, and test the demonic resistance after 10 days!"

Soon the dormant chambers were opened one by one by mechanical arms in the room, and cell activator was injected into the psyker's shoulders.

"Psionic suppression helmets for Alpha, Beta and Gamma psykers."

Sean then added that he was worried that these super powerful psykers would directly affect the energy fluctuations of the subspace regardless of the anti-psionic field.

"Why is there a psyker with a weapon and a tattoo on the back of his hand! He also has an anti-psionic collar!"

Sean glanced around and was staring at Taiyue's dormant chamber. He frowned. He took out Taiyue's powerful sword "Blood of the Barbarian King" and the silver-white shoulder armor and looked at them carefully.

"It is a non-psionic weapon. The quality of the helmet is no different than my weapon. It seems that he is a good warrior. He is a psyker who has a relationship with that Lord."

Sean threw the sword and shoulder armor to the servitor, asking the latter to save them first.

"This Alpha psyker comes with his own anti-psionic collar, so there's no need to put a psionic suppression helmet on him!"

After arranging all this, Sean left.

Half an hour later, the psychics woke up one after another, and they looked at this strange place at a loss.

Tai Yue was also awakened by Phoenix directly after Sean left. He was anesthetized for the first time and had no resistance to the drug.

"Where's my power sword and pauldrons?"

"It was taken away by the servitor. After passing the trial and becoming a Gray Knight recruit, it should be returned to you."

The robotic arm distributed thin clothes with numbers to each psyker. After Taiyue put on the clothes, he looked at his number, which was 09.

"Everyone, go directly to the door and gather! You are here to become recruits of the Gray Knights Chapter. Seize your destiny!"

A majestic voice sounded in everyone's mind. This was a direct order from the Gray Knight with psychic powers in the fortress monastery.

The psyker quickly came to the door of the room, and the servitor further informed everyone about the battle group's information.

"God-Emperor bless me, a few days ago I was evading capture, but now I have the opportunity to become a Space Marine!"

"Your Majesty the God Emperor, why haven't you heard of this war group?"

"Your Majesty the God Emperor, can I still see my family?"

The crowd began to whisper. After all, everyone was still young and did not know the cruelty of the trial.

"From today on, you will climb the highest peak of the Mitris Mountains every day. This is the best way to exercise your will. A strong will is the best weapon to resist the subspace demon!"

"If you fail to pass the demon test in ten days, the canyon of the Mitris Mountains will be your graveyard!"

After the servitor read out the rules, he opened the door of the monastery, and the biting cold wind blew in. The low temperature of more than 100 degrees below zero made these young psykers shiver and ice began to form on their bodies.

If the temperature were any lower, all the artificial oxygen on Titan would turn into liquid!

Tai Yue looked up at the Mitris Mountains outside the door. It seemed to be far above the sky. The gray mountains reminded him of the ores on Marsdan.

Although the temperature of the entire Titan is more than 100 degrees below zero all year round, there is no water vapor in the artificial atmosphere, and there is no ice and snow covering the mountain peaks.

"Close the door quickly!"

said several trembling psykers, who were about to lose consciousness.

Tai Yue ignored their words and walked out directly. He knew that the trial had begun, and he would either die on the road or overcome all difficulties!

Outside the room, there are 8 warrior statues as big as the monastery standing on the road to the highest peak, as if quietly watching these new psykers.

"God Emperor, I want to be them too!"

Just as Tai Yue walked for a while, three psykers followed him, and they decided to go to the highest peak with Tai Yue.

"I am Bruce. I come from the lower levels of a hive city. I was caught here without even knowing the name of the planet where I was born."

The shortest psyker introduced himself first, his skinny body shaking the most.

"I am Terry from Holy Terra, just an ordinary resident, but why am I a psyker!"

The second psyker complained at first about his identity, but then his eyes flashed with determination.

The last psyker was white and fat and silent. After the four of them walked for a while, he finally spoke:

"I am Nelson. I come from a kingdom of knights. My father is a king. When my father just hosted my 16-year-old coming-of-age ceremony a few months ago, a group of people from the beginning said that I was a wizard."

Four people from different worlds and with different experiences climbed all the way along the steep mountain. They gritted their teeth and tried their best to move forward.

What they didn't know was that the previously injected cell activator began to take effect, releasing the potential of their bodies. Otherwise, they would have turned into ice sculptures.

When Taiyue looked back, he found that corpses were piled up in the canyon between the first and second ridges of the Mitris Mountains.

It is not easy to become a recruit of the Gray Knights Chapter! This is only the first step of the test. Only by blocking one's life can there be a chance!

The higher the altitude, the lower the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere. Tai Yue had to breathe for several minutes with every step he took, and his whole body began to tremble.

The cold, fatigue, and lack of oxygen made Tai Yue feel in a daze. Fortunately, Phoenix cheered him up, and he encouraged Bruce, Terry and Nelson.

"For the Emperor!"

In the end, the four of them finally climbed to the top and lay motionless on the ground. Their heavy breathing reminded them that they were still alive.

The subspace energy and the anti-psychic energy field are fighting fiercely. Lightning, flames, air waves, and whispers are all around them. It seems like this is the end of the world!
