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

Chapter 62 What to do about the elephant in the room

After everything was ready, Konrad Curze spent 10 minutes in a hangar that was originally used to house the Dreadnought, but was now temporarily vacant because the Dreadnought in it was awakened, and the high-pressure water cannon that was originally used to clean the Dreadnought. Ineffective fighting from left to right.

When the water flow stopped and the video recording was completed, the servo skulls floated away one after another, and Curze's entire energy and energy seemed to be exhausted along with it.After he was finally released from prison, he went to a dark corner and curled up tiredly and dejectedly, exuding an atmosphere of "not wanting to talk to anyone."

Originally, he wanted to disappear immediately on the spot.But Fujimaru Ritsuka said: "If you don't know where you go and come back dirty, you have to wash it again." So he chose to do the next best thing and squeezed himself into the wall and some kind of In the shadows between large equipment.It's hard for him to really hide in.

After this, the Night Lords naturally gathered around their genetic father.Apart from the most basic surveillance, no members of the Iron Hands paid attention to them - the few who were free were studying the additional video in the server.

Now, two very important encrypted videos are stored on the Destruction Claw.Perhaps soon, all the soldiers on the entire ship will be interested in reading it in their spare time, at least before returning to the home planet. Malkan Feros will not agree or object to this.

In fact, at the very beginning of the whole incident, when he was brought back by Conrad Coates and met the people who were welcoming him out of the corridor, Adjutant Fish had already called for medical support.The Apothecary Brothers were in position at three minutes and 24 seconds, but by that time the traitorous Primarch had already quarreled with the Inquisitor...

Well, Space Marines, especially Space Marines who have undergone many mechanical modifications in the Hands of Steel, are not that easy to die anyway.

The doctor and the patient just read this paragraph attentively from a safe distance together.It wasn't until the large army began to gather the servo-skulls and decided to move the main battlefield that the pharmacist spoke out to obtain Feros's consent and officially started work.

The mechanization of the Iron Hands is really convenient: even when they have to focus on the "treatment" work in front of them, they can connect the signal to the servo skull to watch the broadcast-the one flying around in the sky responsible for lighting the video There are so many skulls, all of which are their own property, so it would be inconspicuous for them to sneak in one or two bands.

All in all, after this chaotic story ended, Malkan Feros, who could not be repaired to a new look because there were too many physical parts left behind, but could still move and fight normally, returned to the chain of command refreshed.

For reasons that would be too long to expand on, he now has a very tolerant and open mind about everything.Even the fact that the entire ship was forced to drift in the warp seemed less unacceptable.

Mentality is mentality, and actual problems still need to be solved.When Feros dragged his wounds that had been treated with hemostasis and analgesia and had to return to the temporary command center a little slowly, Adjutant Fish was talking to Debit and Fujimaru Ritsuka at the same time, and the three of them were floating in the air. The light cast by a holographic star map.

What he found very interesting was that as he approached, the young inquisitor lady who could command the Ironmen, angrily rebuke the traitorous Primarch, and was not frightened in front of the Chaos warband, shrank slightly.

Feros, who returned from repairs, was not wearing a helmet.Among the Space Marines who are almost always fully armed, this is a not strict and unwritten etiquette that expresses respect and friendliness to the person they are talking to. However, no matter how much flesh and blood Feros retains in himself, In terms of composition, he is still a Steel Holy Father after all, so it is naturally impossible for him to not have any mechanical modifications on his body.

Without the protection of a helmet, his electronic eyes glowing red in the darkness and his modified alloy jaw were enough to put Ritsuka Fujimaru into the uncanny valley effect for a short time.

At this time, Feros realized more and more from such a close distance that the inquisitor was very young - so young that he could only be called a child.The fact that she was frightened by Feros's modified face made her look more in line with her age at this time. Just looking like this, it is difficult to imagine how she reprimanded a original body.

But everyone saw that she could do it.When facing Feiros, that little bit of flinching only disappeared in a flash.The Iron Father, like most of the other brothers in the Chapter, generally does not care much about what others, especially mortals, think of his appearance.But now, he was indeed a little curious about what the little judge in front of him thought about this.

But it didn't matter, so he didn't ask.After 32 seconds of simple polite greetings, the meeting returned to the topic:
"His Majesty the Throne Envoy proposed that we could use the subspace engine of another ship to tear apart the curtain and use a tugboat to return the Claw of Destruction to the physical universe." Adjutant Fish briefly stated, "We are calculating with the help of Debit Where the curtain may be open." Feros had no opinion or question about this, so he just nodded.He knew that Debit Zem Void was a strange man with some unexplainable mystical abilities.These abilities are very suitable for use in the current scene - but if he is put together with an inquisitor, Feros is a little worried.

The Doomclaw encountered the man during a counter-insurgency mission in the Calixis sector.At that time, he was an inexplicable but indispensable important role in the planet's local resistance to the Genestealer sect.There is another long story, but after the rebellion was put down, Debit accepted the invitation of the Iron Hands and became an advisor to the chapter as an astrogeologist.

——In fact, Iron Hands does not need any "astrogeologists" as consultants, and Debit has never systematically learned the knowledge required by a real astrogeologist.

He just can "see" the universe itself.This kind of real-time "vision" makes him naturally better than any astronomical geologist: no matter how cutting-edge knowledge in an industry is, it always lags behind, and real-time investigation of real scenes is always at the forefront.

In the first mission when the two sides met, Debit accurately warned the Chapter of the existence of a small Tyranid fleet several light-years away; in subsequent tests, he was also able to easily observe it in real time in the Calixis sector The scale of the fleet parked in the orbit of the Iron Hands Chapter's home planet.Even in the subspace, he can roughly feel which coordinate in the physical universe corresponds to the current position of the ship. Therefore, during the navigation in the subspace, he sometimes makes suggestions to the navigator.

Even if Debit can only make vague and general observations of other locations, the "real-time" aspect is already precious.Some of his resulting flaws and quirks are tolerated as a result...and apart from that, he is essentially a purely good person.

Such outstanding abilities do not come without a price, and Debit is troubled by a long-standing memory disorder: According to him, it is because he wants to solve this memory disorder problem that he travels around the universe, looking for possible solutions.The memory he can retain in a day only has a capacity of 5 minutes, and the rest will be shattered after the day passes - even the use of psychic tracing cannot remind him of it.

It is not that the technical sergeants and pharmacists have not thought about whether they can help him overcome this problem by connecting and modifying some external devices used to store memories, but this plan failed during the testing phase: preoperative tests showed that wearing Bit would have a strong rejection reaction to any kind of mechanical modification, let alone such precision surgery related to the brain.His ability is so precious that no one is willing to bet on whether he can survive the operating table.

In short, Debit, who has never been able to solve his memory problem, has developed a different personality and way of doing things because of his different mental structure from ordinary people: he is silent, only speaks what is necessary, and prioritizes efficiency in all actions. Mainly using reason and logic as his own criteria of judgment - it is very close to the creed of the Iron Hands. Therefore, within eight months of Debit boarding the ship, the two parties got along well and established sufficient trust.

Even Feros and Fish were willing to turn a blind eye to some "wrong" things about Debit while remaining vigilant.

Some wonderful "paranormal phenomena" often occur around this young man, some of which can be explained by psychic powers, while others cannot.Although some people in the Hands of Steel "feel" something is wrong, since no major accidents have occurred so far, these unexplainable phenomena often help the situation - for example, he used this to be alone not long ago. One man climbed the tower and rescued all the psykers on the upper levels.Debit himself was able to pass a very strict inspection to prove that he was not contaminated by Chaos, so everyone who knew about it pretended not to know.

——Mainly, his Galaxy-level real-time observation capability without any side effects is too difficult for any military organization to give up.

These "wrong" things have become the elephant in the room. Everyone pretends not to see them, and the relationship between the two parties can maintain a smooth operation with limited vigilance and limited trust.But the elephant does exist, and an unsuspecting yet apparently capable inquisitor temporarily enters the room...

Feros was not very willing to bet on what a "Emperor's hand-chosen envoy to the throne" would think about their "housing suspected heretics", even if the team she led included Ironmen, traitorous Primarchs and Chaos warbands.

He watched Debit performing data calculations on the star map as usual, and he couldn't help but start to make the worst plan for "what to do if things are detonated."
