Warhammer III

Chapter 21: The Voice of the Dragon

The spiritual power released by Dragon Guard Sisela made the entire space dyed with golden light. At that moment, everyone felt a powerful sense of spiritual oppression.

The Great Sage Urquidex pressed the red button on the mechanical throne console and deployed a large-scale refraction field in an attempt to defend against this psychic attack. The moment the psychic power and the refraction field collided, in the warehouse Many small vortices were formed, and the irregular movement of the air even made a crackling sound.

The bodies of the servitors outside the refraction field began to twist. Just when their weapons were about to fire, they were melted by the subspace energy. The bright light produced by the weapon explosion flashed past and was engulfed by golden light.

"What's the situation now, where should we help?"

Tai Yue asked the Great Sage Caul next to him. As soon as they arrived, they discovered that the Dragon Guard arranged by the Emperor to guard the fragments of the Star God and the deputy casting supervisor of Mars were fighting. This made Tai Yue confused and did not know. What conflict occurred between the two.

"Stop both sides!"

The great sage Caul said that he guessed that Urquidex also wanted to control the power of the Star God fragments. Several great sages headed by the foundry director studied the destroyed ships of the Necrons together, and the information they learned There may be more, and the task of the Dragon Guard is to guard this place and not allow anyone to approach.

Taiyue and Alpha immediately rushed over after hearing this, and the airflow hit their power armor with a sharp metal tearing sound.

After a moment, the golden light gradually faded, and Sisera's chest heaved and she breathed heavily. The anger in her eyes had not disappeared, because the Great Sage Urquidex was unscathed under the protection of the refraction force field.

The Great Sage canceled the defensive force field and began to counterattack. The weapon array on the mechanical throne had been charged and was just waiting for the Great Sage's logic circuit to trigger the attack pulse signal.

Taiyue and Alpha were so fast that they seemed to flash between them. Taiyue launched a defensive force field facing Sisela. The force field not only covered Taiyue himself, but also shrouded Sisela in it, expressing himself to her. There is no hostility.

Alpha opened the palm of his right hand, and the weapon array of the Great Sage Urquidex deflected. Explosions sounded on both sides. This time there were no casualties.

"Who are you?"

Sisela was wary of Taiyue, a psionic Space Marine who had arrived with the Adeptus Mechanicus Magos.

"Your Majesty the God-Emperor, I am the Emperor's warrior, Taiyue of the Gray Knights Chapter."

As Tai Yue spoke, he took off his helmet, revealing his young face. He pointed at the black stone cage behind Sisela and continued:

"The impact of the Star God fragments in the cage on Mars is increasing day by day. We are here to check the reason and prevent the Star God fragments from awakening further!"

"Star God Fragment? Are you talking about the Dragon of Mars?"

Sisela looked into Taiyue's clear eyes and relaxed her vigilance after hearing his explanation.

"Yes, more and more Skitarii and Martian citizens are affected in the Night Labyrinth area, and they have entered here."

After Tai Yue finished speaking, he frowned. He didn't find any missing people along the way. Where had they gone and what were they doing?

On the other side, Urquidex was dissatisfied that Alpha blocked his attack, but the two Astartes who could use psychic powers prevented him from continuing to attack, but remained silent.

At the same time, an unknown binary code suddenly poured into the memory module of the great sage Caul. Caul's mechanical eyes turned red, and his intelligent core started to clear the code, tracking and repeatedly deleting these uncontrolled attempts. Enter the memory picture in your consciousness.

"Sedain, you will become the second director of the Empire's Biotechnology Department. You are the only one capable of improving gene seeds. In the process, you will become the most outstanding biotechnology expert in the Empire!"

The emperor's voice and shadow appeared again, but this time the person talking was not Caul, but Sedain, the second director of the Empire's Department of Biotechnology!

When the last byte of the unknown code was deleted, the void dragon spoke directly to Caul:

He deceived you, just as he deceived me, and you were imprisoned by his lies in a false mission, while I was imprisoned in this land of nothingness.

Even if you decide to come here this time, you are controlled by him. Disturbing the etheric realm is his method of controlling you. Such a despicable and vicious person dares to falsely claim to be the Messiah of Ohm!

After the conversation, Great Sage Caul realized a terrifying truth:

During the process of fusing the intelligent cores of Caul and Sedain, the Emperor discovered that Caul's consciousness would play a leading role, and used psychic powers to tamper with the contents of Sedain's memories, making Caul feel that the Emperor had foreseen it from the beginning. When it came to this matter, the Emperor used lies to convince Caul that the Emperor was the Ohm Messiah. This lie invisibly bound Caul for these ten thousand years.

Truth or lie, loyalty or betrayal?

The great sage Caul's whole body began to tremble. The logic circuit analyzed the authenticity of the information. The trembling in his whole body finally stopped. His only humanity disappeared at this moment, leaving only pure rationality.

"The Void Dragon fragment has just activated the octahedral energy field. Within the scope of this energy field, she can talk to anyone and machines!"

Phoenix reminded Tai Yue that the Void Dragon has awakened, and now everyone here may be the enemy!

(Author: I think what the Emperor said was not to Caul at the beginning, but during the process of fusion of the intelligent core, he used psychic energy to tamper with the memory content. This is not the first time that the Emperor has done this, but the lie has been exposed. Finally, if you were Caul, would you choose loyalty or betrayal?)
