The anomaly discovered by Motarian was discovered by Grey Wind after reviewing the battlefield footage, and while the reinforcement fleet heading to the Galil constellation assembled in Starport, Falla obtained a sample of flesh and blood sent back from the front line in the Oregon Theater of Operations.

Grey Wind took the sample to Russell and told him about the anomalies that had taken place beneath Oregon.

"After the deep scanning of the tachyon sensor, the front-line scientific expedition team found that the star itself of Oregon Star has almost been completely hollowed out, the necromantic tombs sleeping in the interior of the planet have also been completely destroyed, and the blackstone veins are fragmented, leaving only a large number of flesh and blood organisms that resemble tree roots, which are constantly growing, creeping, and reproducing wildly in the interior of the planet... Crowded the strata and broke through the crust. ”

Grey Wind placed a sealed container shaped like a glass capsule in front of Russell's desk and whispered, "This is a small inactivated sample retrieved by ground forces from the 'roots' that spread out of the surface. ”

Russell reached for the sealed container, and Grey Wind reminded, "Be careful, it's not dead yet." ”

"Hmm." Russell nodded, picked up the capsule, and looked through the transparent walls of the capsule at a small piece of 'tree root' sealed inside the capsule.

Said to be the root of a tree, but the composition of this sample does not contain any lignin or cellulose, its main component is a fresh flesh from an unknown genetic sequence, the rough skin has a rough texture like the bark, although the researchers have been professionally inactivated, this small piece of flesh still retains vigorous vitality, and is still crawling along the wall of the sac when Russell holds it in his hand.

"The flesh roots on Oregon are still multiplying in geometric progression, and it is initially estimated that in less than a week, all the material of the entire planet will be completely devoured by the roots, and it will become a wriggling ball of flesh."

Greywind added, "Given that the Necromantic Crypts of Oregon have been destroyed, and that this mission to capture the Tombs and close the Rift in Subspace has effectively failed, should we abandon the reinforcement of the Garil Constellation and evacuate the fleet deployed there?" ”

"Timely stop-loss is a wise decision, but a sensible decision is not always the right one." Russell played with the sealed capsule in his hand, raised a finger and gently pressed it in front of Gray Wind's slightly pursed lips, and said, "The meaning of this flesh root is more important than you think, so I'm going to go to the Galil Constellation myself." ”

Grey Wind glared at Russell dissatisfied: "Don't tell the riddle, what the hell is this thing?" ”

"A relic that may fill the insatiable eternal hunger of the Great Devourer, its name is Infinity Root."

In the reinforcement fleet that traveled to the Galil constellation, Motarian also obtained a small sample of the root of the strange flesh tree.

Motarian stood on a mechanical platform shrouded in magnetic fields, and several trainee Monks of Truth in white overalls operated the robotic arms on the platform, donning him in a set of dark green Seiko power armor.

This set of power armor is extremely well-made, the joint between different parts is high enough to be measured in atomic units, and the armor coated with zero prime-coated armor has excellent defense while also being light and flexible, but it is not as clean and silent as the power armor worn by Astarte, which is carved and embellished with a large number of insignia, markings, and religious runes.

The difference between the human empire and the mechanical creations of the human federation is the difference between crafts and industrial goods.

Motarian admired the simplicity of the design, and as the Primordial looked at the Elemental Armor mounted on his body, there was no sluggishness in the movement of every joint, and every body part fit impeccably well.

He couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that the efficiency of the Order of Truth is so high, and it has only been a few days since I took over the reinforcement fleet, and in such a short time, it is really thanks to you that you were able to hurry up to create this tailor-made set of exquisite armor." ”

The white-clothed researcher who was operating the robotic arm to install a propulsion module on Mortarian's knee was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You misunderstood, this armor is not tailor-made for you. ”

"This is one of our exports to the Human Empire, and the Yellow Springs 8 Foundry World has ordered this standard power armor called 'Scourge of Heresy' from the Order of Truth at a high cost to arm their Ougli armor."

"European ...... Oglin? "Motarian is a little messy.

"Well, we've made some modifications to your physical parameters based on the original design of the 'Scourge of Heresy' power armor, and then we have the power armor you're wearing now." The white-clothed researcher said while adjusting the activity parameters of Motarian's knee armor: "It is not difficult to technically achieve a new set of armor tailored to the body of the original body, but creating such a new set of armor requires another production line, and the cost cannot be pressed down, and the time cannot be caught up." ”

The other trainee monk adjusted the power of the thruster on Mortarian's left shoulder, turned around and smiled apologetically: "The spirit of the order is to seek truth from facts and put efficiency first, I hope you can adapt as soon as possible." ”

Motarian opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say a word.

After a long time, Motarian then asked, "You just said that the Yellow Springs 8 Foundry World ordered this standard of mobile armor from you to arm their Ouglim troops?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?" The trainee friar asked.

Motarian shook his head slightly, putting aside the prejudice in his heart, he could feel the huge increase in the armor's physical abilities, but the more he did, the more confused he became:

"Oglin is a deformed human mutated after thousands of years of inbreeding in a heavily polluted radiation environment, due to the mutation, Oglien's IQ is only a few years old of ordinary humans, but it has a strong physical strength far beyond the average space marine, this kind of powerful and less intelligent deformed human is the ideal soldier of the Imperial Army."

"But while the Imperial army uses Oglim to destroy the enemy, it is also afraid of Oglien's great power. It is difficult to control such a low-intelligence unit once it goes berserk, so the logistics department will generally only equip the Ou Green infantry with the most basic carapace armor and melee weapons, so that even if a few Ou Green accidentally lose control, the damage caused can be controlled. This is the normal way for the Empire of Man to use the species Ogreen. ”

Mortarian said, glancing down at the mechanical arm that was assembling armor on his chest: "The performance of this 'heretic' type power armor far exceeds that of any kind of ceramic steel power armor I know, incredible...... Why did Huangquan 8 give Ogelin such a powerful armament? ”

It's so weird, it's not normal at all.

Oglin is a ferocious beast capable of fighting armor-piercing space marines even in his bare armor state, but the mechanical priests of Yellow Springs 8 have chosen to equip these simple-minded, over-limbed muscular monsters with powerful 'heretic' power armor.

What is the purpose of Huangquan No. 8 paying a high price to the Truth Cult and arming such a group of violent monsters?

"What about this...... the trainee monk on the side put down his work and said in thought: "I also heard from my mentor, it is said that the Yellow Springs No. 8 Casting World was invaded by a large-scale Black Army under the command of Chaos Warlord Abaddon a few years ago. ”

"As a well-known and powerful casting world, the Yellow Springs Eight possessed extraordinary force, and the Mechanical Sages believed that they were more than capable of thwarting the invasion of the Chaos Warlords...... But they were wrong, Astarte's lackeys, the traitors of the Black Legion, unleashed an army of beasts of incomparably ferocious ferocity that tore apart the mechanized forces of Yellow Springs VIII with absolute violence.

The beast called the 'Azjan Worm' possessed a powerful physical power that almost subverted the laws of physics, and the Huangquan 8 suffered heavy losses under the impact of the beast army, at least 2 general-level Titans were torn apart by the hordes of Azjan Worms, and the god's machine that the Technopriests were proud of collapsed. ”

"Therefore, in order to fight against the fierce beast army of the Chaos War Commander, Huangquan No. 8 decided to arm a group of even more ferocious and violent beasts."

As he spoke, the trainee monk puffed out his chest proudly, "My mentor is one of the main designers of the 'Scourge of Heresy' type power armor, and the export of this armor has earned the Federation more than one STC treasured in the coffin by Huangquan Eight. ”

Motarian nodded thoughtfully and muttered, "...... Azjan worm? ”
