Warhammer III

Chapter 2: Farewell

There are no day and night changes on Titan, but the Gray Knights Chapter still determines day and night according to the time of Holy Terra.

Tai Yue, who was lying on the highest peak of the Mitris Mountains, stood up with difficulty. He touched the anti-psychic collar around his neck, and Phoenix began to contact him.

The anti-psionic collar cracked again, and the liquid metal seeping out from it formed an identical collar.

The original anti-psychic collar became transparent, then completely invisible, and deformed while in the invisible state:

The collar broke off from the white spots of the delta switch and the a switch, and grew densely packed legs like a centipede, turning into a mechanical life form.

"The subsequent trials will involve psychic energy. It is not convenient for me to stay with you. It just allows the high-dimensional ark to absorb energy in the subspace! We will contact you after you become a Gray Knight recruit."

"Will I come here to find you then? Or is there any other way to contact me?"

"The new collar around your neck is a standard anti-psionic tool. When you become a recruit, you need to destroy it. This will form a special pulse signal and I can locate your location."

Taiyue lightly touched the switch of the new collar, and the collar vibrated to indicate that the anti-psionic function had been activated.

Phoenix continued:

"Tzeentch may have targeted you. Although your psychic ability has the Hive Shadow attribute, which prevents Tzeentch from directly reading your thoughts, it can penetrate your consciousness through other methods. The symbol on the back of your hand should be consistent with the belief in Tzeentch. It’s related to the Chaos Cult!”

Tai Yue looked at the symbol of golden pupils and flames. This was left after the mutated cells of the psyker were killed by the death multiplication psychic energy. Because there was no sign of subspace energy fluctuations, it was left on the back of the hand without treatment. .

"In order to fight against Tzeentch, I want to get the factory in the high-dimensional ark up and running as soon as possible. With the subspace energy here, the second factory should be activated, and then I can build you a gravity weapon!"

After Phoenix finished speaking, he cut off the spiritual connection with Taiyue, and the high-dimensional ark that became "Centipede" began to leave. The calves of "Centipede" seemed to be anchored in space, and climbed directly to the plane where the subspace energy and the anti-psychic energy field were in contact with each other. On the surface, it moves flexibly on this plane, just like the ancient Terran creature water spider on the water.

Although it was only a short separation, Tai Yue still felt a little disappointed. He looked at the direction Phoenix was leaving and couldn't bear to see her leave.

"The subspace energy fluctuations outside the planet seem to have become smaller."

Nelson stood up for the second time, looking at the strange sight above his head and said.

Tai Yue found that he was not as fat as he was in the monastery, and his whole body was steaming to resist the biting cold.

“Being fat still has advantages!”

Bruce and Terry also stood up one after another and joked with Nelson.

The four of them looked down and saw other psykers climbing up one after another.

On the first day of the trial, half of the psykers failed to activate their cell activation. They turned into ice sculptures and were discarded into the canyon.

Only 19 of the 32 surviving psykers reached the top, and the other psykers who did not reach the top could only continue their efforts tomorrow.

At night, the servitor took everyone to the prayer room of the monastery, where they would spend the night.

The prayer room was extremely empty. The weak candlelight on the wall reflected reliefs of various demons. Psykers sat on the ground at a distance apart.

The candlelight quickly burned out and the entire prayer room became dark. At the same time, a vague scream echoed in the prayer room, making everyone sit on pins and needles.

"Did you hear strange sounds, like the sound of rats gnawing on corpses!"

Bruce whispered next to Taiyue.

"How come what I heard was that someone was hunting wizards, and they kept screaming when the wizards were burned to death?"

Nelson expressed his doubts.

"The God-Emperor bless you, concentrate on praying to the God-Emperor, and don't be disturbed by these whispers in subspace!"

Although Taiyue heard some strange sounds himself, he chose to ignore them and recalled the knowledge of mechanical maintenance, especially the structural diagram of gravity weapons.

He didn't fall asleep until late at night. Some psykers are tortured by this sound all night long. This may be part of the trial.

Everyone spent the past 10 days climbing the Mitris Mountains during the day and praying to the emperor in the prayer room at night.

Sean, who was preparing for the demon resistance test in the basement, looked at the data reported by the servitor and showed a satisfied smile:

It took Taiyue 10 hours to reach the top of the mountain on the first day.

It took 9 hours the next day,

It took 9 hours on the third day.

It took 8 hours on the fourth day,

It took 6 hours on the fifth day,

It took 5 hours on the sixth day,

It took 3 hours on the seventh day,

It took 3 hours on the eighth day,

It took 2 hours on the ninth day,

On the tenth day, Taiyue was able to reach the top of the mountain within an hour!

Through these ten days of training, Tai Yue clearly felt that his body had been strengthened. This kind of strengthening was something he had never been able to achieve during training in Marsdan before, and it far exceeded the limits of his body.

What's more important is that his will has been strengthened. When faced with subspace whispers at night, he can instinctively block them.

Ten days later, the 32 psykers who passed the physical fitness test gathered at the door of the room again under the notice of the psychic Gray Knight.

This time there was a 5-meter-tall space warrior at the door. He was not wearing a helmet, and his face was slightly handsome.

"I am Sean from the Eighth Brotherhood of the Gray Knights. Today is a very important day for you. You will undergo the demon resistance test. Those who pass the test will be eligible to implant gene seeds!"

After Sean finished speaking, he led everyone to the basement of the fortress monastery.

Although the temperature in the basement was not low, there was unusual frost on the steps and walls.

Tai Yue also clearly felt that the fluctuations of subspace energy had increased. Is the test to lift the restrictions on psykers? He thought to himself.

There are only two rooms in the basement, separated by three layers of glass.

Everyone was taken to the room on the left to line up, and a strange cube was placed on the table in the room on the right. The cube was made of metal and had symbols of unknown meaning on it.

The chill is released from within.

"Wait a moment and go to the opposite room one by one according to the number. There is a demon restrained in the cube. If you persist for 10 minutes without being possessed by the demon, you have passed the test!"

Sean didn't say anything about the consequences of holding on for less than 10 minutes, but the word demonic possession frightened everyone.

"The God-Emperor bless you!"

Psyker No. 01 roared and headed to the testing room.

(The gene seed will be implanted in the future to start the journey of the Gray Knight. Please recommend and vote for me!)
