Warhammer, Rogue Trader Notes

"You should feel proud. You are the first existence to block my blow of abandoning honor. It is worthy of praise, but that's it." Zhan Wu kept moving his hand, and he was about to stab Siegel with his knife heart.

But a "truck" rushed up...

Karoo held the giant metal shield and focused his attention on Siegel. The war witch flew several meters away, and the witchcraft blade was still stuck on the metal shield.

Siriolas, who flew out, directly knocked down a war wizard of the spirit tribe who was maintaining the ceremony, and knocked down the war witch who was maintaining the ceremony to the ground.

A huge shock wave came from behind everyone, and all humans and Eldar on the platform were knocked down by the shock.

The warp energy of the entire space was sucked out, and those with psionic gifts and psykers of the Eldar were limp on the ground.

Siegel, who fell to the ground, supported his body with his arms, and he watched dumbfoundedly as the last war witch who maintained the ritual was sucked into the subspace screaming.

The temple platform beneath their feet was no longer gleaming, revealing the Eldar marks and glorious patterns on the surface of the platform.Siegel immediately recognized what it was—a star map.

On the other side, Skadi got up from the ground with hands and feet, straightened his hat, and staggered towards a fallen Eldar war witch.

She still remembered Siegel's order to her to kill an Eldar war witch, and she had already killed one of them now.She originally wanted to return to Siegel, but the war witch who fought with Ms. Sun Li blocked her way back to Siegel.

Skadi had no choice but to assist Ms. Sun Li in the fight, but she hadn't finished off the war witch when the psionic shock came.

But now there is a chance, Skadi's great sword was dropped due to the impact of spiritual energy, but there are many ways to kill a life.Skadi unfastened her two pulse pistols from her waist, her chest heaving with violent breathing.

The war witch of the Spirit Race in front of him hadn't recovered from the last impact, his helmet was smashed by Ms. Sun Li, revealing the handsome face of the Spirit Race inside.

Skadi aimed at the notch of the war mask and raised the pulse pistol in her hand, and pulled the trigger, so that she would not miss even if she hadn't mastered the weapon at such a close range.

Plasma projectiles pierced the runic armor of the Eldar warlock, and Skadi emptied the pistol clip.Siriolas, who planned to retreat, watched Skadi kill another war witch as if he was executing him. He desperately tried to mobilize the power of the warp, hoping to use the most vicious spell to tear apart the one who killed his kindred. of humans.

But there was no response from the warp space for a while, he could only struggle to stand up, and unfastened a new witchcraft blade from the waist of the Eldar warrior who had been knocked to pieces by him.

But it was followed by another surge of psychic energy, this time the depleted energy of the surrounding warp was recharged in an instant.

The people who had already stood up and the Eldar warriors were knocked down again, and the human soldiers who were still standing on the edge of the platform were knocked off the high platform by this impact, and their life and death were unknown.

The mission has failed, and Siriolas no longer thinks about how to stop these humans. Revenge is his only thought. The rich emotions of the Eldar race wash over his soul, and he is half lying on the platform directly. The amount was mobilized by him.

At this time, neither Liz nor Ms. Ash had recovered from the imbalance and impact of the subspace energy, and no one could organize the Eldar war witches to mobilize and accumulate spiritual energy.

Skadi also noticed the actions of the Eldar war witch, and she knew very well that the war witch's target was herself.Skadi drew the self-defense monomolecular blade from her waist. It was a bet that she could kill the war witch before the psionic spell was activated.

Skadi's muscles had already completed charging, and he was about to rush to the front of the Spirit Race War Witch.

My eyes suddenly went dark, and someone held down my hat!

"Siegel!"

It was Remulle's voice.

Volume 260 Fear Pearl: Chapter [-] Star Map

Moving back in time to before the chaos began, Siegel watched in amazement as Karoo knocked the Eldar war witch into the air, eventually interrupting the Eldar ritual.

He considered so many possibilities before the war and planned various plans, but the result was indeed such a dramatic result.

He watched as the rites of the Eldar were broken, the amber stance surrounding the Eldar disappeared, and the witchfire dissipated.Suddenly there was a strong push from behind, knocking him to the ground.

Karu, who was huge, also fell to the ground, followed by a sense of extreme discomfort. He raised his head just in time to see the scene of the Eldar war witch being sucked into the subspace.

He didn't figure out what happened, except for the bone creation, it really took some luck to cause the vision of a spiritual vacuum.

After Siegel stood up, he saw that his opponent was also struggling to stand up.

The ritual has been stopped, and the Eldar can't prevent them from knowing the secrets of this temple. Normally, the Eldar should leave and find another way.

But both Siegel and Siriolas had seen Skadi kill an Eldar war witch, which was technically nothing.

But some people couldn't stand it and broke their defenses.

Another round of shock waves came, this time in the opposite direction, and the uncomfortable feeling before disappeared.Siegel watched as the war witch began to induce some kind of psionic spell, and the target was Skadi.

And Skadi hadn't noticed at this moment.

Siegel stepped on the rune gully of the platform, sprinted from the ground like a sprinter with her lower body and stood up in front of Skadi. At this time, she had already noticed that she was locked by psychic energy.

From Skadi's point of view, she made the right choice to try to exchange one with the Eldar War Witch.

But Siegel is not interested in going through the bridge on the eve of victory, not to mention that the Pearl of Fear has not been found yet!

Siegel pressed Skadi's hat with his right hand to block her behind, took out his plasma pistol with his left hand, and turned to look at the Eldar war witch who fell on the ground. The fuel bottle of the plasma pistol began to glow, indicating that Start accumulating energy.

The gesture of the Eldar war witch to channel the psionic energy was about to fall, and Siegel also pulled the trigger.

"Bah"

A gust of hot air burst out from the plasma pistol, and the fiery plasma liquid pierced out along the gap of the pistol, adhering to Siegel's mechanical arm and the carapace.

Siriolas looked at his missing arm and the Eldar power sword thrust into his chest, attacking from the other side.

　Igrein still maintained his throwing posture.

The war witch of the Spirit Race felt his soul begin to separate from his body, and a dark and icy feeling covered his entire consciousness.

Death turned out to be this feeling.

And Siegel looked at his melted left hand and the plasma liquid covering the front end of the carapace on his forearm.

The plasma gun was overheated, and the disturbed mechanical finger did not pull the trigger in time, and the plasma exploded directly in the gun chamber.The superheated temperature killed flesh and nerves in an instant, and he was now numb to his left forearm, which had been melted away by plasma.

Imperial plasma guns have had a long history of being unstable, with people dying from overheating plasma guns every year, but in general, plasma gun overheating damage can be stopped by fully protective armor.

It can also be understood that after the overheating and explosion, the plasma is scattered and overflowed, and without the restraint of the force field, these plasmas also lose the ability to penetrate armor.

But there is one plasma weapon modification that can have even more serious consequences, and that is the "catastrophe" vent.

This weapon mod roughly gives the plasma weapon a [-]-[-] chance of making the plasma weapon work when it overheats.

Once exploded, the plasma cloud spewed out of the vent, causing the same effect as a direct hit by a plasma weapon.

After removing the gauntlet attached to the plasma fluid, Siegel watched the remaining Eldar warrior use the witchcraft blade to repel those who wanted to intercept him. The spiritual energy shield was fully activated, and the dead warrior Wu's soul stone and the Spirit Race who hadn't recovered from being knocked to the ground dragged back a few steps.

The rest of the people on the platform wanted to shoot at the Eldar, but Igrain held up a gesture to stop shooting. Both the Rogue Trader and the Eldar were at the end of their blows, and Siegel's soldiers didn't move when they saw that he didn't respond. Everyone watched as the Eldar war witch disappeared in a flash of white light.

The Eldar were repelled, and they suddenly found that the fighting outside the temple had also ceased before they knew it.

The theory of the alliance between the Rogue Traders had lost its binding force, and now they were rivals once again.

Defeating the Eldar is definitely not easy. The guards of all dynasties have suffered a lot of damage. Hadalak's chest was cut open by the blade of witchcraft; one of Gerrit's arms was severed; The Kroots on the planet are only the shapers of the ethnic group; Mrs. Sun Li is in good condition, her power armor is slightly damaged, but she also exposed the hidden laser emitter on her power armor wrist, It was this thing that shattered the battle mask of the Eldar War Witch; Jeremiah Blizzard's team was small, except for one member who fell and hurt his back, the rest had no casualties; The slave catchers are down to single digits.

Siegel lost his left forearm and the lives of a large number of team members. The only thing that is fortunate is that the main members of the dynasty were not killed or injured.

And Igrain undoubtedly suffered heavy losses, and the death of a high-level dynasty can be regarded as a great loss.

Therapists at the scene are providing first aid to the wounded and seriously injured.

"Everyone," Siegel said while watching Skadi and Remulle bandaging his broken arm, "Don't forget our purpose, we are not here to kill each other of."

Siegel and Igrein are still the most powerful here, but they did not attack other Rogue Traders at this time.

The two of them first care about each other; secondly, reputation is a very important resource after the dynasty grows bigger, just like when pirates and chaos plunderers have to accumulate notoriety, the reputation of rogue traders is also an important part; finally, They are also not sure that they can securely take down every Rogue Trader dynasty present.

Rogue traders may not have superhuman physique, but they are not so easy to kill.

Siegel raised his right hand, with a black star map imprint on his arm. The structure of the star area is very complicated, and it tells the location of the nearby world.

Others also looked at their hands, maybe on their hands, maybe on other parts of their bodies, the black star map was printed on the bodies of everyone present.

Mel helped Liz up, and the psychic consultants of various dynasties got out of the predicament one after another, and they began to examine the patterns on the Eldar platform.

"This is...a star map." Ms. Ash said to everyone, "This star map should depict the location of the Pearl of Fear, but it seems that the star map has been damaged due to time or some reason."

"Not only that..." Liz walked on the platform of the Eldar with the staff of the astropath, she looked at Siegel, and after noticing that Siegel nodded, she continued.

Her voice was weak, but everyone present could hear her words clearly: "This is not only the location of the Pearl of Fear, but also the process of her being bound by fate. The location of the Pearl of Fear is very important to the Eldar. In an unusual sense, they found this planet by means of prophecy, or it can be called the 'Chain of Destiny'."

"In other words, we can go through the planets on the star map and follow the path that the Eldar used to find the Pearl of Fear, and arrive there again." Navigator Karin grasped the key point, "There must be places on these planets where the Eldar used to locate the fear pearl." The ruins of the Pearl, as long as we find and reactivate these ruins, we can find the exact location of the Dread Pearl on the star map."

After hearing these things, the rogues discussed among themselves, and those who could understand the star map were already distinguishing the position of the star map on the star map.

Igrein walked up to the dead Eldar war witch and pulled out the Eldar power sword from the corpse of the war witch. She turned to the other rogue traders and said, "It's not easy for us to come together today. I hope that you will not have any disputes before leaving the galaxy."

The Rogue Traders looked at each other, and it really wouldn't do them any good to continue fighting here.

"agree."

……

With the retreat of the Eldar, the Eldar defenses on Quappa-12 have also been disarmed.The fleets of various Rogue Trader dynasties also began to provide support to the surface dynasty leaders.

A large number of transport planes flew down from orbit to pick up their dynasty leaders and survivors.

Admiral Bastille also arrived in the temple area after the other Rogue Traders left the temple. He asked his naval petty officers to copy the star map on the Eldar temple, and then returned to his dynasty flagship.

Yang Ke chose another way. He didn't take anyone to teleport to the surface of the planet Kwapa-12. He silently stared at several dynasties, preparing to get information about the destination of this advance from the members of their dynasties. Location.

Athelon stood on a tree trunk at the edge of the forest, watching the Rogue Traders leave the planet, his ranger brothers only slightly wounded in the ensuing battle.

The end of Siriolas left no doubt that his statement was correct, but he was still saddened by the deaths of four of his countrymen.

"Athelon, the Twilight Sword asked about our current situation, how should we answer?" An Eldar ranger appeared behind him and asked him how to report this operation to the Twilight Sword and the Prophet Serenon specific circumstances.

"..."

"Atheron?"

"Tell them that we failed to prevent humans from getting a way to find Fionad." Pathfinder did not choose to shirk his responsibility, he said to his team members: "We will try to find Fiona on the next node planet." Stop humanity from going any further."

"that's it?"

"That's all." The war witches will find the prophet and tell him what happened. As for other things and disputes, it doesn't matter to a ranger like him.

Volume III Fear Pearl: Chapter [-]

Siegel returned to his fleet and asked someone to hand over the star map to Cassia. The navigator should be able to locate the locations of these planets in the expansion area soon.

In fact, the expedition is not unstoppable until now. With the help of the star map, the Rogue Trader can return to the empire and sell information about this route and the Pearl of Fear, which can still be exchanged for certain benefits.

But Siegel estimates that few people will choose to do this, and the current income is completely inferior to the cost they have invested.

Even Hadalak, who was seriously injured, would not refuse. The losses on the planet were far from the degree of injury. Siegel called Yegor over and said to him: "The official name of the assault team is Team Rainbow."

"Does that mean anything?"

"It doesn't mean much, probably because the origins of the members of this team will be more complicated in the future."

"Understood, I will build an all-round combat team according to the adults' wishes."

"?" Siegel looked at the former major officer of the Planetary Defense Force, and after thinking about it, he thought it was okay, "Okay, do it as you want."

Siegel waved his forearm wrapped in a cooling device to signal Yegor that he would go to the medical room for an amputation operation.

However, the command work on the bridge still needs to continue. He clearly knows that the race to follow the chain of fate to find the Pearl of Dread has begun, and further adventures and competitions are about to begin. No one knows what lies behind the planets on the star map. What it means, and no one knows what they will encounter on the Dread Pearl, but all participants are ready to use their best efforts to fight for it.

Therefore, after Siegel arranged the fleet's travel plan and temporarily handed over the command of the fleet to Gloria, he prepared to go to the infirmary for further surgery.

When Siegel stepped out of the captain's dome, he almost knocked over someone else. When he lowered his head, he saw that it was Skadi, who had already followed him all the way.

"What are you blaming yourself for..." Siegel rubbed Skadi's head, "I didn't get this injury because of you, the spiritual charge of the Eldar interfered with the operation of the mechanical arm, and I pulled the trigger slowly That's how it is."

"It should be me who protects you, not the other way around."

Seeing Skadi still looking down, Siegel sighed and lifted her face up with his right hand, looking into her red eyes.

"Did you see the sad expressions of the members of the Armengardian dynasty when Paxton died? The departure of each dynasty member is not only the loss of the dynasty's strength, but also the emotional sustenance of the dynasty members with the death of their companions. Fewer and fewer."

"My deck sailors can be replaced quickly enough, and I don't want the people around me to change so quickly." Siegel took her hat from Skadi's hand and put it on her head. There are so many adventures to go, and so many sectors we haven't traveled, it would be a pity to stop here."

After finishing speaking, Siegel left Skadi here, and went straight to the infirmary.

The sage Mel did not return to her ark, but returned to the golden ship with Siegel after a long absence. She was preparing for Siegel's operation.

The top-quality carapace is made of materials with very low heat conduction efficiency, and the inner lining also has a heat insulation layer to reduce the damage of energy weapons.

However, the exaggerated temperature of the plasma liquid destroyed these protective measures in a very short time. Siegel disarmed the ablated carapace immediately, but part of the left forearm was still damaged due to extremely high temperature. The temperature lost consciousness in an instant.

Emergency treatment has been carried out on the battlefield, but he still needs to go to the operating room for further "treatment".

Siegel was lying on the operating table in the operating room, and the mechanical arm fixed him firmly on it. After anesthesia, Mel used a chainsaw to cut off the burned muscle tissue and nerves of his left severed limb.

"Do you want to prepare a bionic skin for your prosthesis?" Perhaps it was to relax Siegel, or she was taking this opportunity to enjoy a rare time alone with Siegel.

Siegel watched her remove large swaths of necrotic tissue, which felt strange, watching the other party cut herself with a huge chainsaw.
