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

Chapter 204
"Are you sure you want to join me in the defense?"

Going back in time a little, Enkidu asked Lindrick, who came to communicate with him, this question.

In theory, the Iron Hands wouldn't be interested in working with some kind of warp creature like himself - even if Enkidu appears to be communicative, predictable, and a little touchy in minor details. Ignorant people are no different - at least they will have a "disapproval" attitude.

In terms of the ethos of the Chapter, except for the modifications attached to themselves and the mechanical equipment that have been confirmed to be reliable, the Iron Hands do not believe in the power of external objects, let alone this kind of thing that cannot be explained by reason and logic. The power of the mechanism of action.However, since there is an "angel relic" summoned by Debit, a completely incomprehensible terminal jewel from another dimension, it seems that trying to cooperate with a communicable subspace entity is not too unbearable. Something happened.

"We have no choice." Lindrick said, "We must beware of the enemy's reserves that have not been put into the battlefield. For us, this is a battle that must not be lost. I know very well that your strength may be greater. It should be used later, when our Gene Father can face the Daemon Primarch again, but if we lose here, there will be no 'after'."

After a brief thought, Enkidu replied: "...It is also a reasonable judgment. I have no reason to refuse. If he...forget it, he may not be able to express any opinions now."

The two people talking together turned their attention to the "tower" at the center of the defense circle.The essence of Ferus Manus contains too many structures and components whose working principles are too advanced, which makes it impossible for others present to see where the analysis project has progressed.

Enkidu looked like he was about to say something, but then he paused briefly.The divine weapon looked behind him to the outside of the front line deployed by the Iron Hands. Lindrick also moved the observation lens along with the former's line of sight, and found that Debit had returned to the protective range of the position, and was observing the surrounding or He turned a blind eye to the various weapons aimed at him openly or covertly, and just took off the void suit that hindered his movement, revealing the clothes he usually wore underneath that he was more accustomed to and more convenient for movement.

"Debit also asked me to provide support for the upcoming defensive battle from his words." Enkidu simply explained to Lindrick and quickly approached the location of his current master:

"Are you okay with this?" The emotion in his words was more confused than worried, "Maybe it's okay now. The intersection of subspace and reality allows you to live 'ideally' without relying on life-sustaining equipment. Go down, but what do you do after this is over? There is almost no atmosphere on Jericho."

Debit looked up at Enkidu and said very honestly and unexpectedly: "I haven't thought about this problem."

In fact, this matter was somewhat outrageous in Lindrick's eyes: How on earth did Debit stuff himself into the void suit together with the coat he usually wore?

On the one hand, he felt that he should study this issue, but on the other hand, he felt that it was pointless to delve into this with a "person" who could summon "that kind of thing".After all, in comparison, "Forget about sweaters and stuff, how did Debit stuff that long-hem coat into the void suit?" is essentially not a big deal.

"This is not a problem we must consider now." Debit's calm voice continued. While inspecting and adjusting various "weapons" hidden in his coat, he continued to discuss, "'Angel Relics' cannot be used in If you stay in this universe for too long, you will attract unnecessary attention. The sixteen minutes promised before are about to end. From now on, we can only rely on ourselves to complete the entire process of 'spiritual base fusion' in Ferus. I was guarding this place before.”

Everyone present knew that - as the chief think tank of the battle group, Lindrick had also participated in the structure and argumentation of the relevant rituals - no matter what, in the final stage of the ceremony, Ferrus Manus must be there. In reality, the core of one's own nature is exposed, and the "parts that need to be added" are installed for oneself.That will be the stage when he is weakest in every sense and most vulnerable to irreversible damage.This is why, when Gorgon said that he was going to perform the ceremony directly on the battlefield so close to the enemy, Lindrick almost reacted to his objections.

Unfortunately, the objection was ineffective.Then all they can do is to stick to their genetic father before anything else - even if they need to face a fallen original body.Contrary to Linderic, Enkidu obviously lacks the tragic tension that the son of Gorgon can feel.After observing Debit's movements, Divine Weapon raised a question that was related to the current situation but obviously unimportant: "Why do you hide the armed belt in your coat? Isn't it also on the void suit provided by Iron Hand?" Where to mount it?"

Debit raised his head and glanced at him, his tone still calm: "I said, 'I haven't thought about this problem'."

——Debit, who was able to kill local beasts with only a single molecule dagger on Medusa, and who could conduct investigations freely in that cold, barren and dangerous land with little need for bodyguards, at this moment, Finally exposed the fact that "he is a complete layman":

Even if he was able to successfully blow up the earth after spending a year in preparation (although he was stopped by Fujimaru Ritsuka at the last step), he still had no experience in actual combat in outer space.
-
While preparing for the ceremony, Ferus was actually aware of what was happening around him.

Massive amounts of data flow into his perception from various detection devices in his essence.While quickly analyzing the ancient relic generator of unknown origin, he also acquiesced in all the actions taken by his descendants around him.War is an art of gathering the masses, and the art of gathering the masses obviously should not be accomplished entirely by one commander.Even if he is temporarily unable to command directly due to other reasons, he should still believe that his descendants can achieve the predetermined strategic goals.

And his mission is to end everything that is happening to him as soon as possible, so that he can return to the battlefield to provide support - and to give this matter to Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus, Bringing an end to everything between the Emperor's Children and the Iron Hands.

Forever.

What has been will be done again, and what has been done will be done again.In the occult, this is not just a religious maxim.In the tens of thousands of years of webway war, Ferus has become very familiar with this, and he therefore understands that the situation he is currently in is very unfavorable:
Even if he can deal with the occult influence of "The Legend of Jericho" in this battle, as Fujimaru Ritsuka stated, using the "Legend of Medusa" as "Tzeentch also has the power and symbol of hope, so He will not leave anyone with a "breakthrough" in his strategy to achieve a pure dead end, but the most important obstacle standing in front of him is the "Legend of Istvaan V".

The fact that Fulgrim had indeed slain Ferrus Manus echoed throughout the Warp.Even if he could successfully end the entire ritual and regain his combat effectiveness as quickly as possible, the trajectory of fate would still undoubtedly push the whole thing to the ending that had happened.

Ferus slowly retracted his thoughts: Now he should concentrate on thinking about how to reasonably and appropriately embed this strange "generator" into his core.

If this thing doesn't succeed, there is no need to continue thinking about everything else.
