052 The elephant doesn't matter, there's a blue whale in your hangar

The Iron Hand tends to be very quick when it comes to deciding something. Within a few minutes, the four people present unanimously planned the follow-up matters of the docking of the two ships. The next step was to send psykers to contact the Lion's Mane to confirm some technical details.

Debit naturally moved at this point: "I'm going to ask for the Star Whisperer." ”

Fujimaru Rika also naturally followed: "After all, if you want to perform the Psionic Mind Transmission Technique in the subspace, I think I'd better follow along." ”

Fellos made a noise that those present had to react a little to realize that it was a light cough used to attract attention.

"The Star Whisperers may be masters of the Psychic School, but Astarte is tougher-willed. Since it's in subspace now, it's better to send a think tank brother to do this, and the communication will be more efficient. The Iron Father said quickly.

This argument is actually quite far-fetched. Psionic spells, in a sense, mean that the higher the user's proficiency, the lower the risk of using them. Surrounded by enemies in the waves of the vast ocean, Astarte's will is indeed more tenacious than that of mortals, but it is not a decisive advantage in the current situation.

By saying this, Physs doesn't really think that Warband Think Tank is safer in carrying out this mission (but it's easier to communicate with him). It's just that he intuitively senses that there is something wrong with the starlingers, and he doesn't want them to meet with the foreign inquisitor.

When he rushed towards the main power room with the people, all the mortal psionics on the ship were still in the upper floor. He didn't know exactly how this happened, but when he returned, he learned from the historical work packet that Adjutant Fish had passed to him that most of the Starwhisperers and the two navigators had been rescued by Debit alone by unknown means, and were temporarily placed in a nearby hangar that had been temporarily vacated due to equipment maintenance.

It's nice to be able to keep the precious psionic crew, and Ferus has no problem with that, but the matter itself seems too suspicious. For some stereotype, if you don't want to be disturbed by the whole ship, it's better not to let any of the Inquisitors know about this "not normal" thing.

Then, he realized that he was being stared at at the same time by the other three people present.

"Mr. Ferros, it's not that I'm boasting, but I have some experience in things like observing words and feelings." Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression was even a little sad, "I don't know if you realize that when you want to cover something, the meaning in your tone will become very obvious. ”

“……”

When he said that, he did speak 1.7% faster than usual, but he didn't think that a mortal who had not undergone any transformation would be able to distinguish this subtle difference.

Ferros turned his head and cast a reckless glance at the adjutant, who shook his head at him—but hesitated to do so. Debit, as usual, remained expressionless and motionless, but spoke in a steady tone:

"Aside from the observation of words and feelings, Fujimaru is basically an intuitive creature, especially when it comes to living beings who can communicate. In this regard, her judgments are often optimal. ”

This is an objective assessment from Debit Zem Voyd. Convincing, but also confusing: when did you become so acquainted?

The Iron Father and the adjutant were still puzzled, and Fujimaru Rika added another attack:

"Speaking of which, Debit, did you even realize that there are a lot of people on this ship who realize that something is not quite right, but they just don't show it in front of you?"

"......" Debit paused and nodded, "I remember, I'll pay attention." ”

Sometimes the young man's logic is difficult to understand. I don't know what he thought in those few seconds, or what he said he would "pay attention" to in the future, but the result of his performance at this moment was to turn around again and tell the others, "I'm going to ask for the Starwhisperer." ”

After all, after eight months on the same ship, and frequent communication with each other, Pherus had become accustomed to Debit's out-of-the-box logic. Immediately afterward, he discovered that the "foreign" inquisitor was not only more accustomed to this logic of behavior than he was, but had even evolved adaptively:

"Wait a minute, you take this." She pulled a small ball of paper out of her pocket and stuffed it into Debit's hand. Under the scanning of the mechanical eye, Phyllos could clearly see in an instant: the raw material of the paper bird was an ordinary piece of paper of poor quality, smooth, white, light and thin, but nothing more, very easy to fold and very easy to break.

Its structure is also very simple, just a simple shape made of a folded sheet of paper. What makes it a little different is that the paper used to fold is written on it. Too much is stacked on top of each other, but from the analysis of the few words that can be seen in its entirety, Ferros judged that it was the beginning of the first chapter of the Word of God.

Debit took it in his hand and looked at it for a moment, and the paper bird seemed to glow with a faint golden light around it.

Neither Ferros nor Fish had a specific idea of what it was, only realizing through the perverse glimmer of psionic energy that it was not just "a paper bird". But the question "what is it" didn't seem to bother Debit, and after observing it for a while, he even opened his mouth to comment:

"Maybe it's better to ditch the shape and switch to tougher paper. With a focus on increasing the load capacity and service life, the slight increase provided by this form factor is no longer necessary. ”

"That's right, but in terms of consumables, low-cost and reproducible characteristics should be more important. And I only have a little demon skin that I made out of curiosity in addition to ordinary printer paper, and it's really super difficult to save the subspace ether in the form of a physical body, and I can't use it for consecration at all, which is really a big loss. ”

Debit nodded, said "I'll think about it", and left with the paper crane.

Ferros was a little unsure of what to say at the moment, but Adjutant Fish, because he had communicated with Fujimaru Rika before, roughly understood that her personality was not harsh, so he asked directly: "What is that?" ”

"Experimentally, I copied some small things that were stacked, and I guess I could make a disposable amulet. When you cast your psionic energy to teleport, let the Star Whisperer take it with you, which also increases the safety factor a little. Fujimaru Rika explained unconcernedly, and then turned back to the previous topic, "It's all come to this, I think we can just open the skylight and say something: you all know that 'something is wrong with Debit' and 'there is a problem in the hangar where the psionics temporarily live', right?" ”

Here it comes. The two Iron Hands unconsciously straightened up slightly. Perhaps others simply can't notice this small gesture that expresses "nervousness", but in the eyes of Fujimaru Rika, it is obvious enough.

"Ahh I don't mean to ask the teacher for sin, I have known Debit for a long time, and I have to call him a senior. I probably know what is wrong with him, and I know exactly that he is a good person. ”

She explained this very empathetically, dispelling most of the nervousness of the two Space Marines in front of her. Then, Adjutant Fish, who knew the whole thing better, spoke:

"There's something wrong with that hangar for the Psykers, but it shouldn't have anything to do with this incident." "For months ago, the vehicles that had been placed in that hangar had inexplicably broken down after a subspace voyage, and after a few cases of that happened, we put it on hold. This time, after saving the psyker, Debit said that he wanted to borrow the hangar, and I agreed because I thought it was appropriate in all respects. If you want to say 'there is a problem', Debit did promise that 'as long as the psionics stay there, they won't go crazy because of the subspace', it must be what he did there. ”

“……”

Rika Fujimaru was suspiciously silent for three seconds before speaking again:

"Uh...... Yes, but not entirely. This time it was her turn to show a little "nervous" micro-expression: "So you don't actually know what he's doing in that hangar, right?" ”

Hearing one of the inquisitors say this, Ferros also began to panic: "What is the problem? Are psionics still at risk of becoming a ticking time bomb? ”

"Not really...... There shouldn't be any major problems with the psionics of Debitsai's past, as long as they are in that hangar, their spirits will be protected by another powerful subspace entity, and the impact of the waves of subspace on them will be minimal......"

“…… Also, powerful subspace entities? Shocked, Adjutant Fish reluctantly distilled the right keywords. Fujimaru Rika nodded heavily:

"That's right, God Tezcatlipoca is an 'old acquaintance' between the two of us. I can vouch for his unwarranted malice, and Debit is on this ship, which is another insurance, but God is God after all...... I think the vehicles in that hangar always break, and it's because he sneaked in and dismantled the vehicles and put them together while your subspace navigation could be interfered with. ”

The Iron Hand felt that their thought chain was overloaded.

It's a total of 6K today, but it still feels like nothing has been written, why is this happening...... (Sad)
