Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind.

Chapter 41 Dispute
In fact, it is not difficult for the human empire to destroy stars. They have many ways to achieve similar effects, and they don't even need to use the artifacts left over from the dark age of technology.

As an Alpha-level psyker Alexei, the prophetess herself is confident that she can use lengthy incantations and complicated rituals, and after a long period of preparation with the assistance of multiple disciples, she can launch a powerful subspace spell capable of distorting a star-level celestial body.

But that's too slow, and it's too easy to be interrupted... What the star bomber is doing is not just starburst, he is more like demonstrating, using the destruction of stars and the demise of swarms to show the empire his wisdom and strength.

Intended to force them to make concessions.

After leaving the Falla Governor's Mansion, Alexei returned to the Flame of Repentance with weak legs.

In the conference room where the high-level members of the expeditionary force gathered, the incomplete video that was recovered by the reconnaissance team not long ago risked their lives was being played. It was captured by the monitor unmanned reconnaissance drone they launched, and the situation before the detonation of the binary star system.

This short video has been watched more than ten times by the high-level executives, and it was played again when Alexei returned.

The picture quality of the video is not clear, because the energy anomaly of the binary star system in this star system actually appeared long before the swarm came, but it has been hidden.

The reconnaissance team calculated according to the general direction of the Hive Fleet's biological mothership, and then predicted the target galaxy that the swarm would arrive at, so they were able to launch a monitor-type wandering reconnaissance plane to the galaxy in advance to take pictures.

In the picture, two blazing stars, one large and one small, rotate at an unusually fast speed, and the disordered spectrum shows that their fusion or aging speed is forcibly accelerated by external forces, pulling the two stars off their original orbits and colliding with each other.

The picture continued to deflect, and finally, the perspective of the unmanned reconnaissance drone locked on an inconspicuous target submerged in the spectrum.

Compared to a star-level celestial body, this target is so small that even the most advanced monitor-type unmanned reconnaissance aircraft skipped it several times, and it was finally noticed because of its own movement.

After zooming in, I could finally see it clearly—it was a slender silver-gray battleship, and the size could not be measured temporarily because there was no available reference object. From the blurred picture, I could barely see the overall appearance of the battleship as a beautiful fusiform, covered with a complex armor structure resembling reptile scales, and a shield system with extremely high energy density.

The technical sage who just returned from "communicating" with the Mechanic Order in Falla stretched out a curved mechanical arm from under the red robe, and uploaded another video to the display device in the center of the meeting room.

This is a work video. The background is Falla before the war. The first moon and the second moon are clearly visible in the inner and outer orbits. The technical priests and technicians manipulate various construction machinery and use modular ships to assemble a large space station called the Seeker in orbit.

In the video, it can be seen that a beautiful silver-gray battleship is parked on the back of the first moon, which is almost exactly the same as the gray battleship that appeared in the video sent back by the reconnaissance team.

——It’s just that the battleship in the work video doesn’t have that strange scale-like structure on its body.

The fuzzy video quickly played to the end. As the large army of insects covering the sky and the sun broke into the screen, the two stars finally merged into one, changing rapidly and turning into a dazzling spot of light that burned the entire galaxy.

The monitor's monitoring ended here, and the data chip storing this video was also submerged in the light spot, and was finally recovered by the reconnaissance team who rushed to the scene.

As for the mysterious shuttle-shaped silver warship, it was also submerged in the explosion of stars.

"Judging from the trajectories of the hive biological mothership, the target that attracted Tyren to leave Faya is the mysterious silver battleship."

Suppressing the trembling in his voice, the technical sage said in a voice mixed with electronic noise: "It's a coincidence, isn't it? This battleship that detonated the stars and wiped out the entire Hive Fleet is so similar to the 'Golden Age Relic Battleship' in the hands of Governor Falla. Except for the outer armor structure, the two battleships are almost identical."

Even, it is a different form of the same ship.

Although the technical sage's voice was calm on the surface, he suppressed the anger that almost ignited the display screen in front of him. He couldn't believe that the nameless rat named Russell was so bold, so presumptuous, so...extravagant.

Use a precious ship from the dark age of technology to detonate the star system, and perish with the Hive Fleet... Every time he thinks of this sad and sad fact, his mechanical heart can't stop bleeding...a drop of engine oil.

In this regard, the Archbishop of Espernese has a different view.

He insisted that Mr. Russell's move was a manifestation of his incomparable loyalty to the empire. Holding such a giant relic ship in his hands could have brought him inexhaustible glory and wealth, but the governor abandoned it without hesitation, avoiding the crisis of destruction for the Falla galaxy and the expedition fleet that was severely damaged after the war with the orcs.

The state religion has produced countless evidences on the personal character of the governor of Falla, and repeatedly boasted about Russell's personal achievements in order to strengthen his status as a saint.

The Mechanic Order kept emphasizing the immeasurable value of the legacy of the Dark Age of Technology, and sternly denounced Russell's horrific crime of destroying the relic, and demanded that he must protect all the remaining ancient technologies on Faiya, so as not to be destroyed by some unreasonable lunatic again.

The two factions are each biting their own interests, arguing in the conference room, but no one is willing to devote energy to the most critical issue:

How did that gray battleship lead the Hive Fleet away from the Falla Galaxy?

Milak, who knew the inside story, kept silent about it. It was impossible for him to tell the fact that "the last Bao" had actually been taken away by the star bombers.

Alexei took a deep breath and interrupted the fight between the State Church and the Adeptus Mechanicus: "Everyone, can you stop these useless fights for a while? We have more urgent matters to discuss now."

The prestige of the prophetess finally made the state church priests and technical priests who were already in the upper class stop fighting. The technical sages and the archbishops of the star area stayed on her. Even the judges, admirals, and space warrior chapter leaders who had been sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger's battle all became serious.

The Emperor's prophetess takes no hand in the factions of the expedition fleet, and when she speaks, it means that something is serious.

This is true.

Alexey first signaled to the machine servant on the side to take down the repeated video, and then took out the metal regular tetrahedron obtained from Russell from his arms.

The Prophet has a major event to announce... Milak consciously pushed back some low-level personnel, leaving only the following in the conference room:
Several Space Marine Chapter Masters, Naval Admirals, Technology Sages, Inquisitors, Sector Archbishops, and Great Star Whisperers.

Alexei remained silent for a moment, and politely invited the Admiral of the Navy, the Great Astropath, and most of the Space Marine Chapter Leaders out of the meeting room.

She judged that what happened next was not suitable for them to know.
