Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 453 Black and Red, Schemes in the Shadows (Thirty-Eight) Farewell

boom!

A huge sound rang out again, but this time it was the sound of Calvin smashing into the ground with his armor.

Nearly 100,000 tons of weight was concentrated on an area the size of the original body's feet. Both the stone ground with low metal content and the original body's own bones were subjected to unprecedented tests.

But the latter was much better. After all, the overall structure of the power armor determined that the bones only played a small supporting role.

But the former was absolutely unbearable. So after the original body jumped up from the lava, it only drew a short curve in the air, and then inserted itself back into the ground.

………… This was a bit embarrassing. Calvin jumped out of the ground again with a face full of dust. In mid-air, he realized the crux of the problem and began to frantically infuse his spiritual energy into the "original heart".

The cold air froze everything around him in a short time with him as the center, and it was still extending outward at a rapid speed.

boom! Another sound of a giant falling to the ground.

But the part of the liquid metal that was transformed into weightless by psychic energy was increasing, and the strength of the ground was also freezing and rising sharply. After this jump, Calvin's depth into the ground was significantly improved...

The mechanical priests on the track kept observing the ground throughout the whole process, and also felt something strange after Calvin's second jump.

"Data abnormality?" Solan was the first to find the problem, and Mayne misunderstood his meaning.

"Is the gravity parameter abnormal?"

"No, it's the mass abnormality!" Solan looked at the rather embarrassed original body in the picture, stretched out his hand to let the holographic projection show Calvin's real-time data, and at the same time as the dazzling red mass parameter appeared at the bottom of all the numbers, he slowly gave his conclusion:

"I don't know the reason, but he is just... like carrying a Titan on his back."

The mechanical priests looked at each other, and no one could give a reasonable explanation for Calvin's abnormality.

Before they could react, Calvin on the ground had adjusted himself within a few breaths:

After jumping and falling for 10 times, leaving a series of deep pits on the ground of the Serinde Crater, Calvin finally controlled the weight he was carrying to a range acceptable to the ground.

This certainly does not mean that Calvin completed the psychic transformation of all liquid metals in such a short time, but that he finally reacted after several attempts and used psychic energy to expand the contact area between his legs and the ground.

A thin transparent membrane extended from the soles of Calvin's feet to the surroundings, and it was instantly broken after the next impact, and then rebuilt in the next second, and was given greater physical strength under the reinforcement of a more subtle psychic energy circuit.

This can be said to be a kind of deformation of the energy shield, and it will also be Calvin's way of walking for quite some time in the future.

Because even if all the psychic liquid metal is converted, once the battle state is entered, the first thing Calvin has to face is to solve the problem of battlefield tolerance...

"Let's do this for now..." Mayne took the lead in shifting his attention away from the holographic projection, and the high-level priests no longer entangled in the abnormality of the original body.

The forging director sat on the throne in silence, and the priests in the quiet bridge waited eagerly until the original body in the holographic projection completely left the range of the crater. Mayne nodded slightly to signal everyone to let the mechanical army waiting on the ground approach Serinde.

"Your Majesty, what's next..."

Fadin, who is in charge of the Origin Religion, and Kraso of the Titan Society looked at each other, and then stepped forward to ask under the gaze of the forging director.

"Do as agreed." Mayne nodded to confirm.

"Yes!" The two priests who mastered the core military power of the forging world bowed and retreated, and the signal transmission device behind them had sent the mobilization order to the ground.

In the roaring forges and noisy factories, countless mechanical legions on patrol received orders;

In the vast earth that is buried deep underground but is as huge as the residence of the gods, dozens of giants made of steel opened their eyes...

"Ring the bell once! Push the lever to start the piston and pump!"

Countless priests wearing the emblem of Heper stood in front of the mechanical square and prayed enthusiastically to the chariots and cannons.

"Ring the bell twice! Press the button to start the engine, ignite the turbine, and inject life!"

Hundreds of high-level priests personally handed the core key to the pilot, and then stood at the feet of the Titan to guide the sacred ceremony of awakening the machine soul and restarting the plasma engine.

"Ring the bell three times! Sing in unison and praise the God of All Machines!"

Amid countless praises, the transport fleet and Titan Ark that covered the sky and the sun descended from the sky, and most of the armed forces of the Forge World began to gather in orbit under the order of Mayne.

"I have to go."

A few hours later, in the capital of Heper Forge World, Calvin, who was late because he refused to take any aircraft within the atmosphere, said to the senior officials of Heper Forge World beside the transport boat temporarily dispatched by the Unremitting Crusade.

At this time, in the direction of Selind, the reception work of the God of the North Wind had been completed.

Although they were extremely curious about what the Primarch had gained underground, the senior officials of the Forge World showed enough respect and restraint to the Primarch based on the friendship (force) of both sides after achieving their most ideal goal.

"May the God of All Machines bless you. The support we promised is ready and we are just waiting for your order." Mayne said to Calvin while looking at the warships gathered in orbit.

"The Empire will remember your loyalty," Calvin replied meaningfully, then said goodbye to him and boarded the deck of the transport with the Honor Guard.

The huge transport trembled slightly when the Primarch boarded the ship, and then flew out of the atmosphere under the roar of the plasma engine.

"Do you want to wait for them together?" The voice of Tibers sounded in the cabin, obviously doubting the speed of the Mechanicus fleet.

"We will go first and let them arrive at the battlefield as planned." Calvin replied and cut off the communication.

The deck of the Relentless Crusade was already visible, and the cab of the transport boat also sent a reminder to prepare for boarding. After briefly talking to the members of the Honor Guard about their recent situation and confirming their experience in Heper, Calvin led the Honor Guard down from the gate of the transport boat and returned directly to the residence on the top floor of the battleship.

The battleship's engine started, and the huge body slowly left the berth of the starport and headed towards the gravitational blank area in the galaxy - Manzeville Point.

Calvin in the battleship refused the visit of the Imperial Guards and others, and walked alone to the battleship's transmission array room.

He needed a quiet space to check the changes in his power armor, and this space should be strong enough and have energy to amplify psychic energy.

First update.
