Chapter 387 Growth and Test
Calvin should thank Valorian, even though the Grand Admiral showed some unreliable details in some aspects.
But it is indisputable that the special formula brought by the Throne Court, after being tested and distributed by the Grey Knights pharmacists, did have a more obvious effect on Calvin's physical development in the following days.
But this is not a clear formula. To be precise, it is just a blueprint for a nutrient used by the Primarchs.
There are clear markings in the information brought by the Imperial Guards envoys. There is a huge room for discussion on the selection of some special materials, especially rare metal components, in this formula.
Similar to adamantium and ceramsite steel are only the most basic and universal components. According to the individual situation of the Primarch, more rare metals also need to be specifically considered according to the growth stage and genetic characteristics of the recipient.
And this formula is not accepted by all Primarchs. Even if they accept this formula, it will not be produced in Terra.
Several Primarchs, led by the Night Lords, are extremely resistant to this "extra" care from Terra.
The remaining Primarchs, due to the heavy battle mission, chose to place the production equipment of this nutrient on their flagship.
The above reasons led to only a small number of stocks of this nutrient in Terra.
As time went by and the Primarchs left, the use of these special supplies became more and more rare. After the confidentiality period, they eventually became one of the rare collections circulating among the high-level officials of the Empire.
Well, for example, the one in the hands of the Grand Marshal of the Imperial Army, Trajan Valorian.
Calvin certainly would not refuse this "late concern" because his physique and growth path were different from those of other Primarchs.
His body itself was made from the flesh and blood of a mortal, and his transformation into a Primarch was the Emperor's acquired interference rather than innate transformation.
Moreover, the growth environment of this body was extremely bad. The oppressive stimulation of his overly powerful soul on the body allowed him to barely reach the physical strength of the Primarch level in decades, but in fact, it also overdrew all the potential of this body in advance.
The nutritional supplement that Calvin is currently taking is still a basic model, and the special version for him is still being developed by pharmacists.
But as far as his current physical condition is concerned, the basic nutritional supplement has greatly improved his physical development.
His height has not increased too much, but he has grown five centimeters on the basis of the original four meters, but the bone density and bone dimensions of the whole body have increased significantly.
So his body size has expanded twice in the horizontal dimension while the vertical height has not changed much.
The weight of the whole body has increased by more than 20%, and because of the increase in bone strength, his muscles have also increased exponentially on the basis of subtle changes in muscle fiber structure.
However, this is just the beginning.
Under the trend of increasing physical strength indicators, some unknown glands in his body that were originally dormant seem to have finally reached the minimum growth indicators they need.
Especially after the overall bone strength has increased by more than 30% on the original basis, these glands of unknown significance have also begun to wake up.
From the increasingly complex vascular circuits near them, it can be seen that these glands seem to be accelerating their development and preparing for the next step of growth in advance.
But Calvin didn't plan to wait any longer, especially since the basic work of establishing the Eye of the Empire was about to be completed.
This huge and secretive organization has taken shape, and its assigned and reorganized intelligence channels have already started working.
The intelligence gathered from the Inquisition and the Tower of Hegemony is being screened and summarized in the central agency of the Holy Hammer Convent every moment.
As the first warning raised by this agency since its birth, it has attracted the attention of Calvin and Trajan:
The intelligence from the direction of the Misty Star Region was marked by both intelligence channels and then screened:
In recent years, from the information summary of the members of the Inquisition in various parts of the Misty Star Region, an abnormal trend has appeared on a large scale, but it has been ignored by the local Inquisition.
The overall number of chaos pollution incidents in the star region is increasing, while its intensity has decreased significantly.
And these chaos pollution and sacrificial incidents seem to be carried out by some traditional cult organizations, but after the Inquisition cleared them out, it was found that the mastermind behind them was not on the record of the Imperial Inquisition.
A cult organization called "Sons of the Dark Sun" thus entered the sight of the Imperial Inquisition.
The Inquisition tried to further track down and strangle them, but these cultists did not seem to be believers of the gods.
Their simple belief in chaos itself made these people almost have no external characteristics.
As this abnormal development trend spread, it also coincided with the establishment of the Eye of the Empire.
Under the dual attention of the Holy Hammer Order and the Tower of Hegemony, its past data was also retrieved and compared from various places.
The Eye of the Empire thus determined the earliest time when this organization appeared - 10 years ago, and sent their data to the prophets of the Tower of Hegemony and the Holy Hammer Order.
A prophecy that alerted Calvin thus appeared:
In the near future, a catastrophe caused by the master behind these Sons of the Dark Sun will sweep across the entire Misty Star Region.
The source of this catastrophe happened to be on Agrippina, a famous forging world in the empire.
Calvin couldn't wait any longer, he had to go there in person to eliminate the disaster before it happened.
Before that, he needed to deal with Terra's affairs as soon as possible, such as some problems exposed by the Guards' cleansing of Terra, such as the disaster left by the Holy Hammer Order in the depths of Titan.
Another three days passed.
Outside the door of the Hall of Terror in the deepest part of the Titan Fortress Monastery, Calvin, wearing a simple linen robe and holding an ordinary long sword, slowly walked into this long-sealed underground secret hall under the gaze of a group of great mentors and the newly promoted Purifier Turab Erstin.
The Grand Masters and Purifiers stood in the formation left by the Sigillite Malcador, ready to seal the special demon again due to Calvin's failure;
The new True Name owner, Turab Erstin, stood at the main entrance of the Hall of Terror holding the Sword of Covenant, ready to raid the hall at any time and fight a desperate battle with the demon that might break free from the seal.
The Honor Guard and the Templar Knights of the Hall of Victory reunited and stationed on the only way from the Hall of Terror to the surface.
In the entire Titan Monastery, the huge underground building complex with no visible boundaries, the hymns of the psychic choir of the Inquisition also sounded at the same time.
The Imperial Guards of the Tower of Hegemony were dispatched at the same time in Terra hundreds of millions of kilometers away, and the entire Throne Court and the Star Torch Court were under the tight blockade of these Imperial Guards.
The man in the depths of the Throne Court also woke up again from his slumber. Against the backdrop of endless psychic energy and glory, he also looked at the Titan with a divine gaze.
That was a curse buried in the human race by the Chaos Gods. It was also the first test that Galvan faced before he shouldered the hope of mankind in accordance with the Emperor's will.
