Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 28 The Impossible Possibility
After listening to the envoy's kind advice, the pharmacist brothers, led by the chief pharmacist, started intensive preoperative preparations.

The stasis force field that was temporarily turned on was turned off again, and Calvin's sleeping face seemed to be the same as when the blood was just injected.

The pharmacists began to measure around his head and try to find the best entry point according to the information provided by the imperial guards.

And the chief pharmacist, who hadn't been operating on the front line for a long time, broke the common sense and performed the new surgery himself.

This is not only based on the importance attached to the new operation, but also can avoid the embarrassing scene when he stood outside the operating table for a long time facing the envoy of the Imperial Army. (One kills two birds with one stone. Let us praise his wit.)
After everything was ready, the chief pharmacist manipulated the scalpel with a serious face, and repeatedly confirmed the best surgical route from the assistant.

Without any further hesitation, he raised the high-frequency vibrating knife that began to buzz after charging, and stretched it towards Calvin's head...

After tense approach cutting and precise tissue separation, the vision of Calvin's brainstem core has clearly appeared in the eyes of the surgery team under the transmission of optical fibers.

The leaf-shaped gland that originally only existed in the perspective view has finally unveiled its mystery in the eyes of everyone.

The translucent crystalline substance made up the main part of the leaf, and the slender blood vessels passed through the glands like leaf veins, and surged slightly as the veins opened and closed.

The entire gland is an exquisite and unearthly creation, but its function is unknown to everyone.

Then, with the efforts of the entire surgical team, the highly similar gland brought by the Forbidden Army was gently placed on the right side of the center of the brainstem in a symmetrical position.

The next step is to find suitable arterial and venous vessels in the surrounding tissues for transplantation to build a basic circulatory circuit.

After the vascular circuit of the newly implanted gland was established and no blood loss was confirmed, the wound was quickly closed.

Immediately afterwards, Calvin was quickly carried back to the life support cabin by the surgical team, and material reserves several times higher than the normal standard were mobilized to the logistics office.

Prepare all the necessary conditions that the outside world can do for the upcoming last genetic transformation.

It wasn't until this moment that the tense spirits of Panasonic gradually relaxed, and they were finally able to calm down and enjoy the whole picture of the two glands that had been taken before on the optical fiber transmission screen.

"It's so beautiful! Does it have a name?" This is the admiration of a pharmacist brother.

"So what's its function?" Under the pressure of the chief pharmacist's winking, his assistant asked the Custodian envoy standing next to the operating table.

"Ode to Our Lady, that's its name." The imperial guard looked at the glands on the light guide screen with complicated eyes, as if caught in some memories.murmured.

"Effect, what is the effect?" The assistant who was elbowed by the leader was still asked by the chief pharmacist's great curiosity.

"Function?" The emissary of the Imperial Army woke up from the memory, and he looked at the many Astartes in front of him playfully.

"According to the original data found, its function is multi-threaded thinking ability, which allows people to process information from different sources at the same time."

"Ah, is that so? That's really useless to us." The pharmacists came to a conclusion cautiously after listening to the words of the envoy of the Imperial Army.

While relaxing, one of the pharmacists seemed to want to ease the tense atmosphere before. He recalled what the imperial guards said before, and asked in a professional tone:
"You said before that the basis for the cultivation of this gland is derived from some original data. Then, what was the last time it was used in the form of an individual?"

"Is there a specific application target last time?..." The emissary of the Forbidden Army looked around for a week, and then said with some vengeance:
"Why don't we put it another way, firstly it doesn't come from us, secondly it doesn't come from Thunder Warriors, and thirdly it doesn't come from Astartes, well, of course it's even more impossible to be the great Emperor. Guess what?"

Quiet... deathly quiet.

All the pharmacists remained motionless as if they had been thrown into a stasis force field. They needed time to digest the meaning of the absurd information they heard.

"It can't be the Emperor, not the Astartes, not the Custodian, and even less the ancient Thunder Warriors..."

Although the remaining answers sound absurd, after all possibilities are excluded, no matter how bizarre the final answer points to, it is the ultimate possibility.

"Abaabaaahah... Bah bah bah! Half? The other half?" The pharmacist brother pointed to the gland that had grown there before the implantation operation, and turned his head.Looking at the emissary of the imperial army in disbelief:
"Then this...Abaaba..."

The envoy of the imperial army understood what the pharmacist brother wanted to express, he nodded and said:
"Judging from the descriptions in the existing materials, this is indeed likely to be the other half, but this part of the data has been lost, and the empire cannot make it even if it works hard. So we can't be sure. Reasons why young people are interested."

The atmosphere in the room became quiet again, and within a few breaths, the chief pharmacist was the first to react.

He straightened up and glanced around condescendingly.After confirming everyone's names, he opened his mouth and said:
"I order! After the operation is over, the operation data will be sealed up on the spot, and everyone, including me, will undergo memory cleansing! Now, everyone is not allowed to go out!"

The chief pharmacist turned around and looked at the emissary of the imperial army, half begging and half ordering, and said: "I need to trouble you, so don't rush back to report. Please, bear witness for us here."

The Custodian Messenger shrugged, he didn't mind it.And to be honest, he is also very interested in witnessing the reappearance of the peak technology of the empire in a sense.

After calmly speaking to the emissary of the Imperial Guard, the chief pharmacist turned his head and said to the assistant next to him, "Notify the Grand Master of the Order of the Guardian Shapers, requesting that all personnel entering and exiting the entire Titan be closed, and notify all those who have not left the base. Great Instructor. Ask them to arrive as soon as possible!"

After a period of turmoil, Titan [-], which appeared to be still calm and shrouded in thick fog from the outside world, has actually bristled its hair, widened its eyes, and spread its sharp claws, entering the highest alert state.

The resident representative of the Inquisition Chamber, who was stationed in the Blackmailer Company of the Seventh Company of the Holy Hammer Order, was silently controlled at the first time, blocking all his attempts to contact the outside world.

On the other side of Tethys, the paladins who have been stationed in the Hall of Champions all the year round, led by the high-level knights, equipped with Terminator power armor and went to Titan, and went to the key roads on it. Create a block.

The surrounding cruising route directly belongs to the strike cruiser fleet of the Gray Knights, although the reason for the sudden alert at the base is unknown.However, after receiving the order, the bird divination instrument was turned on at full power, and the charge of the light spear and shield was also fully charged at the same time.

At this moment, any personnel or vehicle units that try to enter or exit without permission on Titan VI and the nearby defense area will be directly shot and killed under the highest alert, without notification, warning, and without any hesitation. Kindness to speak of.

And the Office of the Tribunal located on Terra suddenly received an encrypted notice from the Order of the Holy Hammer:

"From now on, our congregation will temporarily close the entrances and exits to the outside world. The support troops that have been dispatched will be suspended from returning to the repair plan, and the strike support troops that have not been dispatched will temporarily suspend the action plan. The holy emperor blesses you, and contact should be resumed as soon as possible."

Then all contact attempts in the direction of Saturn would go unanswered.

Reason unknown, time unknown.
