Warhammer, Rogue Trader Notes

He has reason to believe that this planet has not been desecrated.Even after tens of millions of years of timeline, even if separated by a long distance in deep space, he can still feel the sacred aura on this planet.

The prophecy records the time when the subspace storm surrounding this planet will dissipate, and the time to recover this virgin world will soon come.

The Prophet Serenon also saw the shameful monkeys who were planning to desecrate this world, and after telling the ruler of the Ark World, the Prophet Ella Ashbel organized a team hoping to take back Fionad.

Athelon's ranger team, the Twilight Sword Pirates and the Prophet Sai Rennon's team are the main forces to take back Fionad.

Unfortunately, the Kronos Expansion has more important things to attend to.The monkeys had gone all out on their way to Fionad, but the Prophet Serenon and the main force of the Twilight Sword Pirates were distracted by other things, and Atheron felt a little sad about it.

The chaotic bastards in the screaming vortex were doing things like crazy, and the Ark World Coral was also caught in constant political disputes. All these things made the Prophet Serenon exhausted.

The Prophet Ella Ashbell once faced Kor Phaeron in her youth, losing her admirable blue eyes to the Chaos Space Marine.She is now the ruler of Coral, has very powerful psychic powers, and is happy to use humans to protect Coral's interests.

The empire was not unaware of Coral's existence. When Coral appeared in the empire, the Alien Tribunal would give corresponding instructions to the Calixis fleet to intercept and block any ships that attempted to contact the Arkworld.

The Eldar of Coral have mixed feelings about the Prophet's attitude towards the monkeys.However, in Atheron's view, Coral's internal problems are far more serious than these external matters, and the trend of hedonism has reappeared in this Ark World and is quietly spreading.

He should have chosen the path of an Aspect warrior after ending his ranger career, but he ended up sticking to the path of the ranger.

He thinks that the way of the knight-errant may provide more help to the world of Ark, he believes in this, and acts in this way.Athelon watched Siegel and Igrain's team disappear into the depths of the forest when two Eldar rangers suddenly appeared around him.

They noticed that Atheron's ranger long rifle did not show signs of firing, but as their leader, the rangers believed that Atheron had his own considerations.

"The ranger has been recalled according to your wishes, and Ovira's soul stone has also been taken back."

"What should we do next?"

"How long will it take for the spells of the war witches to end?"

"According to them, the stars must rise twice more."

"It's too slow." Atheron looked at the sky through the gaps in the leaves, "These war witches won't last until then, and the plan to stop the monkeys needs to be readjusted."

Volume III Fear Pearl: Chapter [-] Approaching Footsteps

The two dynasties of Foster and Armengard just walked together for a while before they separated again. Their goal was the Spirit Race Temple in the central area. Perhaps there is a basis for cooperation between the two dynasties again, but in the current situation they There is no need to cooperate again.

Both Siegel and Igrain knew that the Eldar were the potential opponents behind this, but neither of them had any idea how much the Eldar were currently investing in defending the Dread Pearl.

Siegel's team arrived at a river after separation. The river was not rushing and could swim across it.

But they didn't try to pass right away. Siegel and the dynasty members hid in the shadows of the woods and looked at the huge cyan salamander-like creature. Its body was covered with turquoise aquatic plants and its huge abdomen Pressed on the ground, it does not seem to be flexible, it needs to use its short limbs to drag, and the huge tail is flat at the end, which can provide power and control direction in the water.

"A cyan amphibian, judging from its physical characteristics, there is a high probability that this thing eats meat." Siegel was leaning against the thick tree trunk, and the mechanical hand was playing with a big roundworm. Metallic navy blue chitin horns.

"How does this thing prey?" Judging from the appearance of this animal, it should be inflexible, at least on the ground.

Mel controlled his servo skull to cross the river, and the skull scanned the surrounding situation, "I found a new foreshore, we can go around from the other side."

"It's about half a day longer."

"Okay." Siegel put the beetle back on the tree trunk. Just as he was about to lead the team around this huge native creature, the cyan amphibian creature on the other side of the river suddenly moved.

This turquoise amphibian gushed out a purple film of blood from the gap in its mouth, and gradually expanded as the mouth opened, matching the turquoise camouflage of its body, like a carrion that died by the river .

"Put on the breathing mask." Mel, who was controlling the servo skull, suddenly turned his head and said to everyone.

Hearing the other party's instructions, Siegel and the members of the dynasty put their breathing masks on their heads, and the soldiers who came together also put on their breathing masks under Laurentina's instructions.

Less than half a minute later, an extremely unpleasant stench, enough to make people's stomach and trachea convulse at the same time, came over.

Some team members who didn't have enough endurance and didn't wear breathing masks in time vomited out directly, and were taken to the back of the team to rest.

And Siegel and the dynasty members were also fortunate to see how this thing hunted.

Accompanied by a huge buzzing sound, a relatively small giant dragon hornet flew down from the sky. With a little thought, you can imagine how much energy it would take to fly in the sky, so I'm afraid this thing is not very picky .

It directly threw its long tail hook on the "carrion".After being stabbed by the tail hook, the film shrank sharply, firmly fixing the tail hook in the mouth of this giant salamander. The viscous body fluid outside the film protected the mouth from being hurt by the wasp's tail hook and barbs he.

Then, the tongue or tentacles with the end like a sea anemone protruded from the salamander's mouth, slowly climbed up the body of the giant dragon wasp along the wasp's tail hook, and firmly fixed on it.

The dragon wasp struggled to get rid of the predator's attack, but as the salamander's oral muscles squirmed, the wasp's slender tail hook dragged it down from midair bit by bit.

And as the wasp struggled hard, the connection between the tail and the torso began to break, and the internal organs were pulled out bit by bit.

In this way, Siegel and the others watched this huge insect being killed and eaten by another huge amphibian as prey, and the scavenging insects attracted by the rotten smell also feasted on the wasp's corpse, These little ones compared to this salamander and the wasp can swim in the salamander's oral mucus.

Siegel has no interest in disturbing a huge beast of more than ten meters to eat.After he recovered from the vomiting soldiers in the rear, he led the group around the upper reaches of the river and camped again under another Eldar ruin.

When the exploration entered the third day, Siegel had to stop his team to rest for the day.

Unable to adapt to the terrain environment, Siegel tried his best to make the team play steadily, but accidents still happened.

Some team members began to show symptoms of high fever, including Jean Bart.

Siegel used round-tipped scissors to slit the lining of a commando, whose back was infested with small local bugs beneath the skin.The strenuous exercise made them not notice the slight physical discomfort, which eventually led to the deterioration of the condition.

The worms grow and excrete beneath the skin, causing an infection, which leads to a high fever.

"My lord, it's okay, we can still persevere." The member of the assault team was probably in a coma, talking nonsense here.

"Don't talk nonsense, when will you be able to represent other people, don't make a high profile, hurry up and recite it." Siegel scolded the other party.Looking at the bald kill mark on the dog tag of the assault team in front of him, you can tell which team this guy came from. The members of the assault team of the deep sea hunter will not have such marks. They are the kill marks of deep sea monsters .

[It is estimated that the Agors and the Dark Kraken are not very compatible. ] Siegel's thoughts flew to 200 years later, and then he came back and began to put medicine on the back of the team member.

Thanks to the planet's atmospheric structure, these disgusting bugs have no anaerobic habits, use synthetic skin spray to seal its vents, and after a while it will struggle to squeeze out from under the skin.

As for cutting the wound with a knife, the insects will advance further to the subcutaneous tissue, causing secondary injury and more serious wound infection.

On the other side, Yegor and Albertson were also in another tent administering medicine to other commando members who had a fever.The competition between Agor Deep Sea Hunter and Sintila Guardian has always existed, and Siegel asked Ye Lai to command the assault team and hoped that he, as an outsider, could try to bridge the gap between the two.

But he sees such competition as benign and encourages it.He suggested to Siegel that giving his team a more specific, distinctive name would improve the situation.

Siegel didn't have a particularly good idea at the beginning, but seeing the signs of different origins on the soldier's dog tag, and considering that as a wanderer, he would have sailors from all over the universe.

He suddenly felt that Team Rainbow was a good name.

After making a decision, Siegel sprayed medical alcohol on the soldier's back to cool down, while waiting for changes in the wound.

After about an hour, a purple dot began to appear in each wound on the wounded's back.The head of the parasite with strange mouthparts struggled to get out from under the skin, waving its teeth and claws in the air.

Siegel used tweezers to pull one parasite after another out of the wound.He didn't know how many days this thing had grown in his body, but seeing the plump body of these parasites, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.I don't know if the nutrition in my assault team is too good, or if the local creatures are all like this.

Spraying anti-inflammatory drugs on the wound, Siegel signaled the other team members to change into a set of clothes for the wounded. The medical kits brought by the soldiers contained broad-spectrum antibiotics, and told the wounded to take a good rest after taking them.

He got up and walked outside the tent. The sage Mel was holding the bottle containing the parasite, and the servo skull on the side was constantly scanning the data of the parasite with his prosthetic eyes.

The parasites in the bottle are supposed to be from Jean Bard.It might be a little sorry for her to say this, but thanks to Jean Barr, if she hadn't been unable to hold on first, these gangsters would have dared to last until they reached the temple of the Eldar.

Siegel couldn't imagine what would happen to these soldiers who couldn't exert their full strength due to fever and other reasons when facing other Rogue Traders' subordinates and the Eldar.

He can't be said to love soldiers like a son or have much conscience, but he doesn't have the luxury to use up these veterans as consumables.In particular, these people themselves are a team trained by themselves according to the Storm Loyalist Army, each of them is very precious.

"How is Jean Barr's situation?" Siegel asked the sage.

The sage Mel and Le Mule are in charge of treating Jean Bart, and Le Mule is supposed to accompany Jean Barr in the tent, while Mel comes out to admire her "trophy".

"It's much better, I've taken the medicine and fell asleep." Mel didn't take his eyes off the parasites in the bottle.

"Is there anything worth studying about this thing?"

"No, due to the local environment, these parasites are much more vicious than similar species in other worlds. It's just that the skin and body shape of the local creatures can resist the invasion of these parasites, and even form a certain symbiotic relationship."

"Some parasites can secrete many good things, such as natural broad-spectrum antibiotics, anticoagulants or coagulants, but this one is still too tender." Mel commented on this from a rather professional perspective. thing. "Of course, more professional creature sages may find the use of this creature, but we don't have to focus on this kind of place."

"Indeed. There are too many places that can earn benefits in the expansion area. We don't need to take every piece from the expansion area."

"However, let Barr feel sorry for the delay in the trip. Our speed should be faster. If everything goes well, we should reach the location of the temple today."

"Then you should take a break. No matter what happens in the temple, Liz will sense it, but the state of the soldiers is not good. I think it's good to take a break and let them face the enemy energetically." Siegel said casually I found a reason to excuse this rest.

Mel stared at Siegel, staring at him a little strangely.

"what happened?"

Mel turned his head back...

"No, nothing."

-

And on the top platform of the Eldar Prophet's Temple, a dispute is taking place.

"As I said, Athelon, the Prophet's plan cannot be suspended. We are preparing a ceremony to bury the temple in the depths of the subspace. You only need to delay for another day and night, and we will be able to complete the ceremony. By then, the star map here The network will be completely destroyed. Those monkeys will no longer be able to locate Fionad." The war witch in a flowing red robe on the outside and Coral's iconic red and orange color armor in the Arkworld is fighting with the Athelon in Ranger's Cloak.

Judging from the expressions, heaving chests, and tone of both sides, this dispute has been going on for a while. Behind the war witch, five other war witches are surrounding the platform. They are also wearing the war witch robes. The breeze billowed the edges of their robes, and they raised their hands, as if begging for something, and red flames floated around them.

The quarrel that occurred on the other side of the platform did not affect the continuation of these witch war rituals.

"I'm not discussing with you, Siriolas. The vanguard of the monkeys is less than 2000 meters away from the Temple of the Prophet! The other monkeys are also not far from here, as long as they reach the foot of the Temple of the Prophet, they will know what you are doing. What, what you and your war witch brothers are doing will only make those monkeys join forces to deal with you!"

"This is what you and your ranger are here for, Athelon! For the Prophet, for Fionad, you and your ranger must go all out!"

"Ovira is already dead here, and he is only three hundred years old! Relying on a few rangers to stop hundreds of monkeys and those damned birdmen in this woods, there must be a limit to making trouble without reason!" Arthur Long's tone was very serious, "Your ritual can't be completed! But time has already destroyed Fionad's position, which is good. What we should do now is to leave and go to those planets where we can locate the Pearl of Fear Go up and ambush and defeat these monkeys one by one!"

"Continuing to stay on this planet will expose our strength. Those monkeys are so greedy, they will not be afraid, they will only unite against us. Once they form a larger group, it will be more difficult to defeat them, then We need to pay a higher price to get Fionad back!"

"No, you are wrong, Athelon, the ceremony will be completed, the thousands of years of ranger journey have not let you realize the true strength of our race, you have lost in your path." This sentence came out It was no different from pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey. Athelon laughed angrily at Siriolas' attitude.

"It seems that I am not the only one who got lost in the path, Siriolas." Athelon said to the war witch: "It is useless to talk, and my ranger team and I will buy time for your ceremony. But you remember Hold on, Siriolas, once the situation breaks down, in order to protect Fionad, I will make my own choice."

With that, the Pathfinder disappeared into the darkness with his ranger long rifle on his back.

Siriolas looked at Atheron's leaving back with a solemn expression, without making a sound.

Volume [-] Fear Pearl: Chapter [-] The Witch Hunter

When the exploration was on the fourth day, although the data of the auspicious instrument indicated that every step forward of the team was shortening the distance between himself and the central temple of the Eldar, Siegel looked at the fern forest that had hardly changed around him, and felt a wave of Anxiety still began to well up in his heart.

But Siegel didn't show it. He had to accept that something had happened and solve the problem. Even if it was to put pressure on the people under him, it would depend on the situation.

But this sweltering environment made people more impatient. Siegel looked around the environment around the forest, and he felt as if countless pairs of eyes were watching him.

The buzzing of insects intensified this feeling, and Siegel involuntarily clenched the saber at his waist.One hand held Siegel's wrist, interrupting Siegel's restless mood. He looked back, and Remulle looked at himself with concern.

The hymn of the state religion began to echo in the forest, and the nuns in silver shrouds also hummed softly. The holy words surrounded the advancing team, and the atmosphere in the team revived.

Such an action in the forest is undoubtedly not in line with the needs of combat, but looking at the soldiers with high fighting spirit and improved morale, Siegel felt that even if there was an Eldar team ambushing here, they could still shout for The Emperor fought back heroically.

But the problem is, they still haven't reached their destination.

Just when Siegel began to think that the endless swaths of the dense fern forest would never end, he pushed aside the fern bushes in front of him and stepped into a vast glade.

In front of Siegel, a huge alien temple rose from the surface of the planet, and many exquisite towers stretched gracefully into the sky.

In the upper half of the gigantic building, Siegel saw a protruding platform surrounded by a wraithbone arch extending from the rest of the temple.

Siegel felt the suffocation from the soul when looking at this tall building, as if the builders of this place were similar to gods, and compared with their great achievements, their own souls were insignificant.

But this feeling disappeared in an instant, replaced by an absurd smile. The buildings of the Eldar race are so breathtaking every time he sees them. Siegel's will is enough to make him break free from these soul shocks.

Because Siegel at least knows their race better than most people in this galaxy and even a considerable part of the Eldar.Their history, their culture, their proud, grotesque, fate-bound, playful past, present and future.

When he looked at a race from a macro perspective, he really understood that it was Siegel's own pride.

Seeing that Jean Barr, Laurentina, Egor, Albertson and some soldiers were all in a state of sluggishness, Siegel looked at Karoo who didn't appreciate it at all, and then at Mel, Li After confirming with the state church members that nothing unexpected happened to these people.He clapped his palms heavily, and the clear voice woke up those who had fallen into obsession.

Siegel's clapping not only awakened the sluggish soldiers, but also the low bushes around the forest surrounding the Eldar prophet's temple began to shake abnormally.

Igrein led about 20 members of the Armengard dynasty to Siegel's left; Ms. Sun Li and Abergrit led their men of less than 70 to appear a little further away.

On the right side of Siegel, Ms. Charbella, who came out first, looked a little embarrassed. Her personal bodyguard was dead, and there were only a dozen or so Kroot mercenaries left. They were the rogue traders closest to the temple. , and formed a grudge with the Ranger, her team was under the key care of the Ranger of the Spirit Race.

Farther to the right, a mechanical bird sprang out from the woods, and Haradak Fell, his female lieutenant, and more than a dozen killing machine servants appeared in sight.

On the other side of the temple, Jeremiah Blitz's squad and Clokin Feckward led his 100 slave catchers out of the woods.

The forces of the eight Rogue Traders surrounded the temple, but first, they had to resolve their conflicts.

When they came out of the woods, everyone was awed by the magnificent buildings of the Eldar in front of them, and lost their minds for a moment.

Whether it is the main members of the dynasty or the ordinary soldiers, it is normal to see the Eldar buildings with such a feeling. It is different from a long-distance observation and a close-up observation. Psychic power will affect people's mental state.

As a gland warrior, although Laurentina is not as crazy as other gland warriors, her mental state has not been very stable, so her behavior is normal.The strengthening plan of her and Skadi was originally going in two directions.

Both Skadi and Liz raised their heads solemnly and looked at the platform on the upper part of the Spirit Race Prophet Temple. Siegel looked along the line of sight of the two of them. Due to the obstruction of the line of sight, he could not see the platform. What happened above.

But judging from the state of Skadi and Liz, what happened above must have something to do with spiritual power.

"There are very strong spiritual energy fluctuations on it." Skadi raised his hand to hold his big sword, "It's the breath of the spirit race."

As mentioned before, Skadi is strengthened to become a witch hunter, and some people will call this professional witch hunter.
