Warhammer Inquisitor Chapter 153

  Chapter 153 Destruction Storm: Mission Choice

While the battle was raging on the ground, Belisarius Kaul was also conducting his research deep underground in the Obelisk Plain of Cadia. Kaul succeeded in obtaining the permission of Lord Creedberg Finally, he came to the underground of the Obelisk Plain. He broke through the wall of the bunker and found the core of the black stone here.

   This is a huge inverted pyramid. A strange black metal body protrudes from the upper part of the crypt, just like a building built by the designer after taking the wrong blueprint.

  Countless green energy lines flickered and flowed on its surface. Undoubtedly, this was definitely what Kaul was looking for on this trip, so he ordered his technical priests and machine servants to build this camp.

  In this underground scientific research camp, countless energy cables were pulled from the bunker at the far end, lighting headlights lit up the entire underground huge cave structure, display screens and Mechanicum holographic equipment were deployed around the pyramid.

  Among these research equipment, he was taller than most priests, and the much larger Kaul stood there, his only face that retained human features scanning the screens in front of him.

  There are countless data information and energy scanning maps scrolling on it. The servants and the servo skulls scanned the energy data of the inverted pyramid structure, and the results surprised Kaul greatly.

He looked at the ever-changing energy display on it, the energy was as unpredictable as water, it seemed to be completely random and irregular, but Kaul made repeated calculations through the unimaginable data array in his brain, and finally in After performing millions of calculations, he discovered the signature of these energies.

The energy performance of these obelisks is almost completely consistent with that of the subspace, and it is almost completely unfounded. At first, Kaur did not discover this, but he inadvertently paid attention to the great battle on the surface. Celestine When summoning the Legion of the Cursed, he examined the Warp energy field there out of curiosity, and soon found a similarity to the Blackstone.

The energy performance of the Black Stone Obelisk is almost completely the mirror surface of the subspace energy field, just like a person standing at both ends of the mirror. Facing the mirror, one person is facing the mirror.

"What a miraculous creation." Kaul said. Several of his robotic arms were operating on the surrounding computers. The Thinker engine was running at full speed and calculating energy changes. This was difficult, but Kaul still made up for it with his own computing power Got an error.

Kaur's mechanical eyes scanned the screens, and the changes on them made him extremely obsessed. Even though he has lived through the duplication, data transfer and storage for thousands of years, the things here still make Kaur curious. And puzzled.

  His fingers tapped on the keyboard, constantly using the portable reactor function, injecting powerful external energy into the lower structure of the obelisk, and the energy of the reactor was injected into it through several data cables connected to the end of the pyramid.

Kaur kept using external forces to attack, interfere with and try to destroy the obelisk's energy field, but he was surprised to find that its energy form was completely stable, no matter it was attacked by the union from the physical energy level or the spiritual energy level, Its operation is still stable and conserved, just like it is easy to put everything into the water and take it back.

   "How amazing." Kaul exclaimed. He walked around the data platform and walked up to the black inverted pyramid. His mechanical fingers touched its surface. The flowing black steel was cold and mysterious.

  His mechanical eye rotates to scan its surface structure, the absolutely smooth surface has no dents or damages, even if he increases the magnification by 50,000 times, its surface is still absolutely smooth, like a smooth water droplet.

Its surface molecules are completely locked, leaving no gaps. It is hard to imagine how the obelisk on that barren planet was destroyed before, and why Abaddon destroyed these fascinating creations .

  The red light illuminated Kaul's robe and mechanical limbs. He turned his head and looked at the siren.

"What happened? Report the data immediately." Kaur said and turned around. A technical priest walked in front of Kaur. Most of his face, which was already covered by machinery, looked at the data tablet in his hand, and responded in a cold tone. Great Sage.

"The Cadia air defense system has been invaded by electronic demons, all systems have been shut down, and the air defense array has been paralyzed." The priest said word by word, he looked up at the face of the great sage, "according to the calculation of the command system, the The planet will fall within two hours without the orbital counterattack capability."

"This result is unacceptable. Repair the orbital defense system immediately." Kaul said, he turned and strode to a data terminal. The connection between the terminal and the Cadia defense system was originally used by Kaul to pay attention to the surface It's just a window into the progress of the war situation.

Now he looks at the electronic demon raging on it. Kaul tried to repair the system, but decisively disconnected in an instant. The electronic demon found Kaul and swooped towards him almost instantly along the data stream. If It wasn't that the great sage disconnected quickly, his data terminal might have been hacked.

  Caule searched the database for the virus, and soon discovered its presence in the records of the Empire, a deadly virus created by the Iron Warriors' warsmiths.

"Omnissia, we must save Cadia until my research is completed." Kaul said holding the mechanical scepter, and the terrifying orbital bombing above his head had begun, and the crypt was shaken by the explosion of the shells Countless gravels fell.

   Some of them hit some kind of metal object at any time, and Kaur listened to the strange impact sound, and there was also a strange footstep looking into the shadow.

A figure came from the depths of the cave. He patted off the dust that fell on himself and walked out of the shadows. His fully mechanized body appeared in front of Kaur, which aroused the great sage's vigilance and hostility almost instantly. .

"Necro." Kaul clenched the scepter, he looked at the Necro in front of him, his face flashed green light with a weird laugh, this guy had a huge back on his back. Crown, whose shape looks completely different from its necromantic kin.

"Hello, great sage, I'm glad to see you here." Necromancer said with a smile. He walked out of the shadows and walked towards Kaul. The great sage raised his scepter, and the cathars around him also All took up arms.

   "The Infinity. Traasin." Kaul said with the most murderous, hostile and frightening voice in his tone.

  The Necromancer didn't show any fear or displeasure. He smiled and walked towards Kaul, “Don't worry, Great Sage, I'm here to help. I think you should treat your allies with friendship.”

   "I'm not like what you said, Alien." Kaur said seriously, his countless mechanical arms were lifted up, and long cutting razors protruded from under the red robe.

  The cathars around him also aimed at the undead, but this alien who suddenly appeared alone was surprisingly calm, which made Kaul a little different and began to think about what he said.

   "Why did you come and what is your purpose?" Kaul's mechanical voice asked, and the undead responded with a more human voice, "Help, because of a friend's request."

"What kind of friend?" Kaul continued to ask, and raised the scepter of the ruling great sage to signal him to stop. Tarasin stopped, and he laughed and raised his mechanical finger to rotate it well. His wrist twisted in front of his eyes, as if he was doing some acrobatics.

"Answer my question, Alien! Before I blow you to pieces!" Caul warned, and Traasin calmly pointed his finger at the data terminal computer of the empire, almost instantly all the electronic demons were wiped out, steel The demonic virus that the warriors were proud of was instantly disintegrated and destroyed.

   "I said, I'm here to help, this is my first favor to help you, and this is the second and most important one."

   With a flick of his finger, a data hard disk appeared, as if it was really created by magic.

   "A friend, a friend we have in common." "I don't have a mutual friend with you, Alien!" "No, great sage, but whether you understand or not now, I will help, here."

  Tarasin handed the hard drive to Kaul, who looked at the hard drive suspiciously at Traasin, "Could this be a trap?"

   "No." "Why should I trust an alien?" "Cadia is about to be captured, great sage, do you have better attention? No? Then you can only accept it."

  Cauer hesitated for a moment, then stretched out a long mechanical arm to explore the past. Its wriggling mechanical structure opened and closed back and forth in front of Traasin like a snake, and then grabbed the hard drive and quickly retracted it.

Belisariu Kaur inserted the data hard disk into the reading interface, he created a security isolation area, and used one of the temporary personality to deal with it. If it is invaded, it will be quickly discarded and deleted, so as to ensure the host computer as much as possible. Safety.

But his worries were completely superfluous, because there were indeed no viruses and attack programs in the hard disk, but a large series of dense data and data archives. He mobilized and opened one of the data packets, and then the half of a human face was revealed. called a surprised expression.

   "This is the information of the Blackstone Obelisk. My people created them in the Battle of Heaven to suppress the power of the Warp Psionic Sea, so as to better suppress the Old Sage and his servants."

  Tarasin explained thoughtfully. His face was covered by a large number of data windows in front of Kaul, but his explanation was still very helpful.

Kaul scanned and read the data at the fastest speed, then closed all the windows and looked at Trasim in front of him, "It is because of the existence of the obelisk that the Eye of Terror was blocked on the edge of the Milky Way. A long physical corridor."

"That's right, that's why it's called the Eye of Fear. In a sense, the eyes appear because of the existence of Cadia, and as you think, Great Sage, you can operate it in reverse. The Obelisk suppressed, and even tried to close the Eye of Terror."

Kaul immediately turned around without saying a word, walked to the data terminal in big strides, and activated the obelisk using the knowledge he had just acquired. The constant energy field began to change rapidly, and countless energy structures began to expand rapidly and then collapse and shrink. , and then repeat this, just like a whirlpool.

  The inverted pyramid structures were all lit up, and the surrounding obelisk structures protruding from the ground were also all lit up. Strings of green lights flickered on them, and the powerful energy field even destroyed several Thinker data terminals.

Kaul stood in front of the control interface, and the high-speed operating reactor hit the obelisk with regular energy, thus activating its energy field. Kaul looked aside, looking at the rapidly descending subspace energy map, the subspace's Power is being suppressed! Even the Eye of Terror itself!

Violent vibrations shook the ground, and the cathars could hardly stand still. Amidst the flying sparks, Kaul looked excitedly at the subspace data, which was rapidly collapsing, and the energy field expanding and contracting in the obelisk The bottom is squeezed and absorbed.

"But there is a warning, you need to know, great sage." Traasin said and walked up, he stood behind Kaur, "Now you know what I said is true, ten thousand pieces of advice are nothing compared to one successful Try, then now I need to tell you another fact."

"The obelisk can indeed suppress the energy of the subspace, and the demons on the surface will disappear as the power of the subspace weakens, but for Abaddon, the main force he relies on in this battle is the Black Legion. , these existences do not need the maintenance of subspace forces."

"They were able to continue to attack, but as far as the empire is concerned, Celestine, who is now maintaining the war situation, will lose his strength, and the cursed legion will disappear immediately. Like demons, the empire can only rely on the mortals of Cadia, and a few The Black Templars and the Imperial Fist Space Marines against the army of destruction, this is tantamount to asking for a dead end."

  Tarasin said, Kaul turned his head to look at the undead overlord, electric sparks were constantly gushing out around him, he stood there firmly, speaking calmly.

"You have two choices, great sage, you can abandon Cadia, abandon them, let Abaddon slaughter them all, occupy Cadia, and destroy your fleet, your ark, and the The treasure you carry, you must send to the treasure of Macragge, but you can try to use the obelisk to directly and permanently close the Eye of Terror, but your commitment to Guilliman, and your ten thousand years of mission and responsibility will Fall short."

"You can also choose to save them, stop your attempts now, try to save Cadia and your compatriots, and send the Destiny armor carried on your mechanical ark to Macragge, to fulfill your mission of ten thousand years ago. commitment, you need to make a choice."

  Cauer looked at Trasim silently, and the Necromancer looked at him. The great sage didn't answer immediately, but Trassin nodded silently, then turned and walked into the shadows.

  A dimensional Rubik's Cube appeared in his hand again like magic, and he gradually walked away, "I will buy you time, but you need to make a decision as soon as possible, great sage."

Kaul stood in the vibrating underground cavern. He looked at the operation interface in front of him, and his fingers hovered over the power button. He needed to make a choice, which is to take the risk of destroying all his efforts for 10,000 years and close the Eye of Fear. , or give up this opportunity, stand out from the encirclement to fulfill the promise he made with Guilliman.

  He must make a choice, a choice that determines the fate of the entire galaxy.
