Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 444 Black and Red, the Plan in the Shadows (Twenty-Nine) Contact

Otto?

Calvin, who was meditating, seemed to have sensed something, and opened his slightly open eyes to look towards the north of Janmorro.

The design advantage of the Retribution-class battleship was once again revealed. Under the action of the super-power engine, the Unremitting Crusade had reached the edge of the Heper Forge World.

And the disposable toy he sent to Otto a week ago was obviously delivered to the qualified user by the Grey Knights.

Just now, Calvin saw the familiar light in his meditation.

Responding to the call of the Legion's will, Calvin followed the coordinates given by the medal and projected a ray of his will to the distant Otto.

That was enough. There was no physical distance in the subspace. With clear coordinate guidance, the power he projected arrived almost instantly.

The Legion's will along the way continued to track the seed, and every warrior contributed his own strength to it.

When the seed grew into fruit, when the dagger extended into a sword, the portal opened by the medal was just formed.

So in front of Marsh and the lifeless, all this happened in an instant.

At the moment when the medal fell to the ground and glowed, a stream of incandescent flames appeared from the void. The demon did not have time to react and died under this precise and targeted killing.

The flames that annihilated the soul and true name burned fiercely on the body of the Word Bearer, and the demon possessed by the Word Bearer had been devoured by Calvin's soul.

The contaminated armor returned to its original color, and then after being corrected by the laws of physics, it became scrap iron corroded by time;

But after losing its soul, the twisted body did not even have the chance to collapse, but silently turned into ashes, and then was blown away by the whistling airflow on the snow-capped mountains...

And this was just the beginning.

Because the preciousness of the Blessed Son was beyond everyone's imagination except the Word Bearer Corps itself.

It was rare to be selected as a suitable reformer, not to mention that few creatures in the void had the desire to combine with mortals.

And the process of merging two souls was even more dangerous. Without the direct intervention of the gods, every newborn Blessed Son was a core member of the Corps.

They are the leaders of the legion warriors. The power brought by the Unborn makes them the sharp spearheads on the battlefield;

They are also the main components of the Dark Council, because only a few people are lucky enough to complete the feat of ascending to the devil.

The power struggle of the legion often takes hundreds of years. In order to obtain a long life, the path they represent is the necessary choice for most Word Bearers.

And it was such a precious warrior who died on the battlefield of Otto. His fall obviously triggered a certain mechanism, allowing the fallen Primarch to detect it even if he was thousands of miles away.

It was also because of this opportunity that the rulers of the two legions finally completed their first special contact a week after the war, separated by hundreds of light years of physical space.

The Dark Lord's eyes fell along the traces of the Son of Blessing, and Calvin's will did not retreat in time.

The arrival of the two wills is based on this Son of Blessing as the coordinate, so the collision between each other's wills in reality and the void is inevitable.

No sound appeared, but the power of the later was disintegrated by the power of the former as soon as it arrived. The spying was stopped, and Calvin looked towards the source of power.

Dark twisted things, this is Calvin's intuitive feeling about Lorgar.

After the fall of this former golden son, except for a little bit of the essence of the warp, there is no trace of the Empire.

That is another kind of distortion different from the gods' followers, which is directly derived from Chaos, a more primitive disorder and darkness.

He has never seen Lorgar.

He can tell his identity completely from the appearance of the Word Bearers and the unique power characteristics of the other party.

The appearance of the fallen demon primarch surprised Calvin, but he was not shocked, because the sense of crisis that had always appeared in his intuition finally found its true source at this moment.

Black hole... or black abyss, this conclusion is Lorgar's feeling about Calvin.

He never thought that a being created by the Emperor, who is also a genetic primarch, actually has more obvious psychic characteristics than Magnus.

What made him laugh and cry even more was that his essence was even more inhuman than the former Magnus.

What is that? The sense of crisis made Lorgar curb his desire to test.

And the information obtained from just a face-to-face observation was beyond his greatest expectations.

A danger even worse than death.

"Hmm, interesting..."

In the Triumvirate, in the nearly eternal darkness of the Temple of Despair, the king sitting on the obsidian throne was muttering.

This was definitely not the work of his cheap father, at least not completely.

Pragmatism, or utilitarianism, was the man's style, which can be seen from his attitude towards himself and other brothers.

The destruction of the empire by the rebellion changed his attitude towards psychic power and the warp, which was not surprising;

But is something more difficult to control than Magnus really suitable as a tool for him to realize his ideals? Not necessarily...

Thinking of the intelligence he had previously gathered from the Legion, this monarch hidden in the dark couldn't help but raise his mouth.

It's not just me who has cognitive errors.

Even the Eye of Terror didn't notice this man's abnormality, so those cheap brothers of his also thought that this was another failed tool.

You all thought wrong...

The whisper of the demon prince echoed in the empty hall, and the consciousness in his soul carefully avoided touching those "names".

Omniscience and omnipotence, huh...

Another meaningless taunt, but it's a pity that this harvest has no possibility of being shared.

The halo of the gods was broken again. After the real rise to the devil, Luo Jia, in addition to his unchanged belief in chaos itself, has a more urgent and greedy desire for power.

Or it can be said that the real him has never changed, and the change in attitude now is just a step further on the road to the pursuit of power.

At first, he betrayed because of his worship of destruction, and now he abandons because of his understanding of the nature of chaos.

The same person, the same logic.

The difference is that before the first change, he still needs someone to "seduce" him to cross the bottom line of morality and humanity.

There are only zero and countless betrayals. Now that he has given up worshipping the gods, he no longer has any psychological burden, and he doesn't need any reason.

Under the throne in the dark, two rows of blessed sons stood quietly.

They didn't know why their monarch was laughing, but from the connection of their souls, they also felt the extinction of a fellow.

That was another kind of death different from the physical body, a kind of complete extinction from the fundamental existence.

Fortunately, there is Erebus.

The Dark Lord, who had completed the "alternative contact" with Calvin, was thinking with satisfaction at this time.

There was no one more suitable than him to test the quality of this "brother" for himself.

Update.
