10. Unexpected joy, uninvited guests
After the flames burned through the chapel, Hades asked Tis again what he thought—and in the end, they unanimously decided to visit Mauro's ship.
According to Barry the Psyker, the Zerg shadow here will soon descend to the point where the subspace transition can be made,
Therefore, in order to navigate the subspace more safely, Tis needs to attach itself to Mauro's large ships anyway.
Hades, on the other hand, wanted to visit a larger ship, and according to Ties, Mauro's ship was anchored with some small boats, and Hades decided to "borrow" one.
Borrow one, and then find a planet suitable for Hades to engage in science and technology in this star field, stay until it is a full year, and wait until the empire sends someone to pick him up.
Or find a planet occupied by Nurgle and kill it directly.
Kill until Nurgle spits Motarian out.
Sadly, after continuing to harass the Psykers, Hades was frustrated by the fact that nothing but Tyrann's shadow and the greenskinned Waagh position remained in the starfield.
In front of these two forces, Chaos doesn't seem to want to show his face.
Hades had no choice but to find another way.
And for those mortals, Hades just hopes that they can all fly out of this star field-
Then help him tell the Death Watch the news of his return.
At Hades' behest, Black informed Tis of a Death Guard stronghold, and after subspace jumped out of this star field, Tis would immediately go to the Death Guard and the Mechists.
To add credibility to the noble lady of the Death Guard, Blake writes a letter to Ties,
The letter was also accompanied by a photograph of Hades with his hand on Blake's shoulder armor, two look-alike men smiling at the same time, with Ms. Ties's bulkhead in the background, and in a trance you can see Oglim emerging in the corner.
Blake seemed reluctant to send the photo, so Hades hastily took a second copy of the same picture with him for Blake to keep.
Then, with Hades' permission, Tis sent a message to Mauro's ship, which now had a son of Hades and a respected elder in the warband.
Unexpectedly, Mauro quickly sent the coordinates of their ships to Tis and urged them to converge quickly.
Hades wondered why the lord of the main hive was interested in the son of Hades, but Blake proudly straightened his chest and told him that this was the son of Hades.
Hades couldn't hold back when he saw the Tiens brother behind Blake.
"Barry, you say."
Hades interrupted Blake with a wave of his hand, and Blake turned back, and Barry was sure that for a moment he saw some kind of fighting intent in Blake's eyes.
Barry briefly stated the meeting between the Tiens Warband and the Lord of the Main Hive,
However, from Hades' point of view, the evidence provided by Barry can only show that the lord is a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death...... I don't hear anything else wrong.
As for plundering Tess's fleet, Hades glanced at the noblewoman who was busy directing the crew, if Tis could beat Mauro...... He reckoned that the two sides of the matter would swap things.
He wasn't going to preside over the affair, all Hades hoped was that these people would help him get the word out — preferably as many people as possible alive.
Correspondingly, the Death Ward will give them a portion of the monetary compensation.
During the voyage, Hades continued to teach Oglim to count, instructing the crew to strengthen the ship's defenses.
Sometimes, he would lead Blake to the church that had been almost completely burned down, and a fire had burned all the combustibles, leaving only the stately sculpture silent.
Blake stood silently behind Hades, the Immortal staring at his sculpture in a daze, wishing he knew what his genetic father was thinking—or, in fact, Immortal didn't want anything?
After coming out of the chapel, Hades continued to teach the clever mind to count, and sometimes this pleasure was done by Black, and in the middle of a bang, two, three, the two ships met.
The Lord of the Hive's ship is a Tarask-class transport, which looks much more well-organized than the ships of Tish, with many turrets on both sides.
Hades was puzzled as to why the ship didn't have a shield, it didn't even look like it had a Void shield.
Tis didn't plan to board Mauro's ship, so Hades said goodbye to Blake and the old and dilapidated ship, as well as the people on board.
Tiens Barry chooses to stay on Ties' ship, and Hades expects the Space Marine, who is clearly too weak to have a weakened psyker by his side.
And even if the nobleman Tis might change his mind after this and fear the likes of the Inquisition and not fulfill his promise to Hades - Barry would have done it.
Hades loved the Sons of Dorne.
Hades also thought about letting Blake jump out of this star field where birds don't with Tis and his party, but later, he felt that he could place Blake on Mauro's ship.
Two groups of people went to spread the news of his return, which was more secure.
Although Blake may not be happy to do that.
Hades decided to do psychological work for Blake after that.
But none of that mattered, at this moment, Hades was casually standing in the reception room of the Tarasque-class ship, looking around.
Blake glanced back at the Father of Genes without a trace - he was somewhat surprised by Hades's performance, and he had expected the Immortal King to treat the mortal lord more politely as he did to Ties.
Blake was a little confused, he wasn't sure how to act according to the attitude of the Father of Genes, so he simply answered the words of the two nobles in front of him.
In front of them were Mauro, a fat aristocratic man who had almost completely curled up on his throne out of fear, and another psykeric man with the Inquisition's emblem around his neck, but who looked suspicious and scrawny.
Blake couldn't understand why Mauro was so scared that he didn't want to leave his throne and kneel after he saw Hades.
According to his understanding of these mortal nobles, these guys who are greedy for life and afraid of death will generally kneel down at the first time, praying to save their lives and status.
It's another psyker, and Blake has a little admiration for him, even in the face of Hades (although they claim that Hades is the son of Hades, and don't directly say that it is Hades), this mortal still seems to retain his sanity and backbone-
He was even trying to disobey the views of the two visitors.
"We hope that Your Excellency will provide us with a ship for us to leave, and that you will be able to send a message to the Death Guard for us, and of course, the Legion will be rewarded heavily, and you will have a more comfortable life than you did in the previous nest."
The psionic man bared his teeth and grinned,
"My lord, we can send you back to the territory of the Death Guard."
Blake subconsciously glanced back at Hades, who was still looking around, Hades frowned slightly, staring at the reception room.
It is said that it is a reception room, but it is actually the private room of Lord Mauro, and it can be seen that Mauro is in this room to accept people's worship and manage his people.
Compared to Mauro's pot-bellied appearance, this reception room is more pleasing to the eye, with bookshelves rising knee-high into the ceiling, and dense crowds of books.
Blake figured out the old-fashioned spines, which might have been the wealth left by the lord's predecessors, or the lord simply took them out to fill the gap.
After all, Mauro seemed wealthy—at least he was before he fled, and Blake remembered that Mauro's family was a well-known wealthy man in the star field.
"We don't need subspace for now."
Blake said, but then the psyker said something that surprised Hades,
The psionic man bowed slightly and said respectfully,
"In order to serve the two adults, we can also leave the subspace jump for the time being."
The lord next to him, who seemed to be frightened, also hurriedly spoke, "Yes, yes, yes, the adults from the Sons of Hades warband, as long as you stay on the ship of the contemptible people, it is the honor of our three lives to serve you." ”
Blake frowned, this is different from the idea of the Father of Genes, that is, I don't know if the Immortal King is willing to command this ship-
Behind him, however, Hades, who had been looking at the room, moved.
Ignoring anyone in the room, Hades walked straight to a bookshelf and pressed down on a blue book.
As if at the push of a button, the book sank between the shelves.
Almost as Hades acted, the psyker suddenly burst out with a shout, and the faces of the two mortals were as pale as earth, and Blake even heard the footsteps of the guards outside the house, and the machine gun that suddenly descended from a corner of the house.
But Hades didn't even twist his head, and the psionics went limp along with the nobles, and the glow of the psionic shield even appeared on the nobles' chairs - but it was all useless.
The first guard to rush into the reception room also fell straight down, smashing directly into the floor.
Blake was sure that the bridge of the hapless bastard's nose was completely broken.
The machine gun in the corner of the wall also idled a few times in a few green arcs, and finally lowered its head in decadence.
"Father?"
Blake turned to look at Hades and asked, bewildered,
Hades ignored him, and Hades continued to walk around the shelves with all his attention, pressing a book on the shelves every few steps.
Soon, Blake realizes that there is a secret room hidden here.
The people who fell to the ground were not dead, the psionics were gnashing their teeth and staring at Hades, spitting curses out of their mouths, and the pot-bellied lord was already crying with fright.
"Alright."
Hades pressed down the last book and watched with satisfaction as the lord's throne suddenly moved, revealing the steps below leading to the dark room.
“…… Well,"
Hades said, walking over and carrying the nobleman like a chick and throwing down the chair, "It seems that this passage is not very friendly to the size of the Immortal?" ”
The screaming psyker suddenly shut up like a chicken with a choked neck.
Hades ignored him, slowly raised his hand, and aimed at the narrow dark passage,
The moment he boarded the ship, Hades, who had scanned the entire ship through the Black Domain, immediately realized that something was wrong.
Unlike other ships, this ship is equipped with a large psionic circuit, which circulates with abundant psionic circuits around the entire ship, providing the ship with a powerful psionic shield.
These flowing psionic energies are so abundant that they can even keep their shields open all the time.
But while receiving them, Mauro turned off the psionic shield.
Hades raised an eyebrow, a green arc flashed in his hand, and in the electric light, the metal channel in front of him began to melt and expand.
And now, the source of all psionic pathways, in the perception of the Black Domain, converges in the secret room at their feet.
Runes and spells are fused layer by layer, this is a very delicate psionic formation, one layer of psionic energy ripples over another, and from the perspective of the Black Domain, Hades perceives that these psionic energy has been skillfully transformed, and then used to power the fleet.
It might be a good psionic circle, Hades doesn't know anything about psionic things, but he can at least see a little-
This psionic formation that is constantly supplying energy to the ship, there must be some kind of extremely strong psionic energy in the center of its array eye to provide energy for the array.
The tunnel melted, and under the horrified and desperate gaze of the mortals, Hadi stepped inside.
"Blake, be on guard outside."
Hades casually said that the dark path was dark, and the frost produced by the abundance of psionic energy stained the stairs layer by layer, and further down, the frost almost replaced the steps.
Hades was silent, and in the layers of psionic energy, he felt a certain familiar feeling, but he couldn't even remember for a moment where this familiar feeling came from.
Which psionic species had he devoured?
Outside the tunnel, Hades' heavy footsteps faded away, and Blake stood beside the psyker, squinting at the mortal.
"I know something is wrong,"
Blake suddenly crouched down, and under the gritted gaze of the psyker, he drew his dagger and picked up the Inquisition necklace around his neck.
"You're not from the Inquisition," said Blake, "and you killed an Inquisitor?" ”
"More than one," the psyker sneered, then spat a mouthful of blood on the ground, "You've been eyeing us for a long time?" ”
Blake shook his head, turned his head and glanced at the doorway again, and the unfortunate man with his face on the ground began to bleed.
He wasn't worried about rushing in to guard at this time, Blake believed in the power of the Father of Genes.
"I don't know you," Blake said honestly, "I guess." ”
Hearing Blake's answer, the psyker in front of him suddenly began to twitch, and Blake initially thought it was some kind of witchcraft at work - but he later discovered that the psyker was trembling with anger and despair.
"How did you find out? The secret method of opening this door is clearly hidden in nine different worlds," the psyker writhed, and he suddenly raised his voice, "Senid told you?! ”
Blake estimated that the name of the psyker was probably that of the Inquisitor he killed.
As for the nine worlds or something...... Blake had heard that some nervous people (mostly psionics) had a habit of hiding some kind of artifact and leaving a bunch of riddles waiting to be discovered.
So, Blake suddenly came to the spirit, did Hades find a treasure?
Unexpectedly, he is worthy of being the father of the son of Hades.
Seeing Blake's eyes lit up, the psyker cursed even more ugly.
Blake frowned, he glanced in the direction of the dark path, he didn't want the Immortal to hear this,
And why is this psyker so tenacious?
Blake thought, "Shut up, wizard, I'll just emphasize it once. ”
"How the hell did you find him?!"
The psyker let out a hoarse scream, and Blake immediately pressed his mouth, hoping to say something before the psyker fell unconscious, making him even more uncomfortable,
Blake thought about it, he remembered the strange words of his comrades in the warband, Jin had recorded all the strange things that the Hades said in his video, and these words were also successfully inherited by the son of Hades.
"You've heard that...... Perspective hanging? ”
Hades stopped.
In the empty hall, the ship's psionic pathways crawled all over the walls, twisting and converging here, like a thousand-year curse.
Treacherous psionic arcs illuminated the armor, crackling, mingled with desperate wails and roars,
Countless chains glowing with blue and white light stretched out from the rest of the outer circle of the circle, wrapping around the prisoner, seemingly causing great pain to the prisoner.
The main circle flickered violently, violently squeezing the prisoner's spiritual energy, and the paper filled with blasphemous prayers wrapped around the nine pillars, and the nine pillars stabbed down fiercely, penetrating the struggling existence in the center of the circle.
Outside of the main circle, the corpses of countless soulless people were piled up, at least hundreds, and these bones were delaying the leakage of tyrannical psionic energy to prevent it from destroying the circle.
Hades' eyes widened in surprise, and his black eyes reflected the existence that collapsed in the circle, wailing in pain, and he also saw Hades.
Magnus struggled and stretched out his hand towards Hades,
【Rescue... Help me......]
Hades, shocked.
