How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 188 Open Sesame

The chief think tank, Lindrick, was one of those people who murmured and was suspicious of the fact "whether this trip went too smoothly."

The subspace is still very calm, it can even be said that it is too calm, even the Eye of Terror is like this.Medusa's position is already quite close to the Eye of Terror, but Jerick is even more so.From a psychic perspective, Lindrick can feel the existence of this source of chaos at any time without paying too much attention to it - its existence cannot be ignored.

But he didn't have much time to deal with the "suspicious" emotion stuck in the middle state for himself, because he had been selected to be the first batch of attachés of the Father of Genes to go to the surface, and was summoned to a room in the Iron Fist. Gnaku.He had to follow the instructions given by the power armor and set off immediately and prepare for airborne landing.

Of course, at this time, his power armor was not only guiding him to the designated location, but also showing him the results of the auspicious survey of Jerick from orbit not long ago.Lindrick had heard some stories from his genetic father about tens of thousands of years ago, when there were still some alien races living on this planet.He couldn't deduce from those few words what kind of physical structure the aliens who lived here had in the past, and he didn't care about this, but the only thing that was certain was that even if they returned from death and could see the current ones again Jerick, there is no way they would recognize this planet as their homeland just from its appearance, and they would no longer be able to live on it.

Thousands of years ago, Ferrus Manus must have unleashed the wrath of the Empire here without reservation.Even years later, Lindrick could clearly understand from the readings transmitted to him by the auspicious omen that the planet's crust had been "razed to the ground" in a physical sense.Maybe it once had an atmosphere, maybe it didn't, but Lindrick concluded from the data he saw that even if it once had one, it had already been completely burned out by the cyclone torpedo.The endless violent impacts and explosions at that time must have affected Jerik's geomagnetism and rotation. Over the past ten thousand years, this rocky solid planet should have been able to capture some gases floating in the universe with its own mass and re-form a thin of the atmosphere, but it failed to do so.

Perhaps it is due to the defense system set up by the original body around the planet. Over the past ten thousand years, it seems that no asteroid or meteorite has successfully hit the surface of Jerik. Most of its crust still retains the traces of the war during the Great Crusade. .

The main facilities of the Mimir Treasure House are underground.As part of his mission briefing, Lindrick read planetary data that marked him with the location of the entrance to the vault.This part of the information could obviously only come from his genetic father, because no matter what the chief think tank himself thought, he could only find mounds and stones that looked normal near the marked area.

He quickly gave up this pointless search, and once again confirmed the meeting point on the planet's surface, and then returned his attention to his surroundings.He was already in Gnakuli, facing the Thunderhawk gunship that was ready to take off. The power armor automatically linked the wireless transmission protocol with the surrounding battle brothers who were preparing to perform the same mission with him, and the runes identified by his teammates The display on the inside of the helmet lights up, allowing him to check the status of friendly forces at any time.

What made Lindrick feel a little unexpected, but what made sense when he thought about it carefully, was that a Debit suddenly blended into the gray-black armor of the Iron Hand.

This crew member, who was also special on the Claw of Destruction, was personally promoted to the Iron Fist by the Primarch at the beginning of this voyage.For Lindrick, considering that this person is familiar with ancient legends, is not a psyker but has some unique insights into psionic powers, and most importantly, has the same relationship with "Enkidu", who was replaced in the battle group. The seemingly friendly Warp entity widely recognized as the "Iron Man" had a contractual relationship, so it was only natural that the Primarch would decide so.But for the chief think tank, even with the introduction of an Iron Father, the original body seemed to be particularly tolerant of this person, and he was still not sure whether he should trust him.

This subtle emotion has no specific reason, but is more based on an intuition-the intuition of a psychic.Even though all his senses, including spiritual ones, were extremely convinced that there was nothing too strange about this person's physical structure and that he was just an ordinary mortal who had not undergone any enhanced transformation, he Still, when you get too close to the opponent, you will intuitively feel an obscure threat.

Why Debit feels "threatening" is not entirely clear.While normal humans feel threatened when approaching the muzzle of a bolter because they realize that the muzzle of a bolter can easily take their life; psykers feel threatened when approaching entities possessing powerful Warp powers. Feeling threatened - Lindrick sometimes felt threatened when he was too close to Enkidu, but that was normal - because they knew very well that this surging subspace power could attack them at any time. Cause irreversible damage.The vague threat he felt from Debit was different from the above: he never clearly identified the source of this threat from Debit.

At least so far, this "threat" has not clearly affected anything. After a detailed conversation with Markan Feros, Lindrick is willing to temporarily put aside the exploration of its roots.He came back to his senses, and while boarding the plane, he looked at this mortal wearing a life-sustaining void suit, and then he once again confirmed that no matter how you looked at him, he was just an ordinary mortal.

"Are you okay?" While fixing himself in position, Lindrick finally couldn't help but asked Debit, who was also fastening his seat belt. "No problem." The latter answered without raising his head, and his voice came out strangely from the helmet of the void suit.

"I mean the process of you following our gunship to the surface of the planet." Because the other party's answer was too brief and decisive, Lindrick, who suspected that the other party did not understand what he meant, added, "You are just a mortal, and you have Without any mechanical enhancement components, can you withstand the acceleration that follows?"

"No problem." Debit repeated, "I have participated in similar orbit-to-ground delivery with the Dofolk clan on the Claw of Destruction. The acceleration caused by flight does not exceed the limit of my enhanced magic, and I can land safely. ."

Lindrick closed his mouth in disbelief.According to Iron Hand's usual style, since the person involved thinks it is okay, he will also think it is okay.But the chief think tank is still doubtful about this: Debit and his so-called "enhanced magic" really have no problem. After all, no one wants to only find some minced meat in the void suit that is fixed in place after the Thunder Eagle lands. .

If anyone was willing to rank the physical comfort of Imperial vehicles in use, the military equipment used by the Astartes monks that placed too much emphasis on efficiency and effectiveness would obviously be at the bottom.Among these, the Iron Hands' vehicles are very likely to become the bottom of the bottom.These Space Marines, most of whom possess excessive mechanical enhancements, take the thrust and overload associated with the Thunderhawk's descent as a matter of course, even though they would undoubtedly be fatal to mortals.

But what surprised Lindrick was that Debit, who claimed to be "no problem", actually seemed to have no problem under such "torture".The words bragging and exaggeration obviously did not exist in his dictionary. When the Thunderhawk gunship they were riding in landed on the surface of the planet Jerrick, and all the people assigned to carry out this mission filed out of the cabin, Dai Bit is obviously doing well, just a little sloppy.

This problem that could be ignored was obviously harmless. After Enkidu, who had been following him in spirit form, appeared next to Debit like a joy, this did not cause any hindrance to their marching speed.The chief think tank led his team to the target location, and met with the original body and the battle brothers who were delivered to the ground from other aircraft. They waited for a while at the location of the entrance to the treasure trove marked in the briefing. Their genes After another round of complicated certifications, the father successfully opened the door to the underground facility.

The earth and stone used as cover here, the holographic projection, and the related materials responsible for forging the reflection of the auspicious omen split apart amidst the rumbling vibrations, revealing the fine gold door hidden underneath.The shields and defensive measures deployed nearby meekly stopped operating during the operation of the machinery, and only the simply flattened road led to the depths of the dark treasure house.At the moment when the flying dust and gravel temporarily subsided, a few lights began to light up in the deep alleyway - there was not much light, which still made the corridor appear dim, but for those living in Medusa, there was a strong atmospheric obstruction, so This level of light is enough for the Iron Hands on the surface that always looks dark and cold.

Things were still going very smoothly, which made Lindrick in the team twist his wrist uneasily, and then grasped the Heartforged Staff tightly.

In his perception, the Eye of Fear was still without any ripples.
