Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 127 Ancient Void Shield

"He just disappeared like that?" Angron looked at Qin Xia, seeking an answer.

"Yes." Qin Xia reasoned, "Just like in some mythological stories I told you, some people died but are still alive, but if someone reminds them that they are dead, then they will really die."

Angron rubbed the back of his head, clearly still not understanding.

"The story of Tark and the myth I told you are different, but the principle of death is roughly the same." Qin Xia said, "It is to destroy the heart."

“Heart-piercing.” Angron thought about it and nodded slowly. “I see.”

Qin Xia looked at the void shield: "This thing has a function that can anchor human souls. Although I haven't figured it out yet, the principle is roughly to use the soul's obsession to stay in the world as a trigger to keep the soul in the real universe... It's not as simple as I said, but it's probably similar."

"Tark probably wants to stay in this world to finish his unfinished business and complete that crazy cause. This is the obsession that binds him to the Void Shield."

"When he regretted this and felt that his obsession was nothing but false, and finally realized that he just wanted to destroy everything, the obsession that connected him to the Void Shield dissipated."

After listening to Qin Xia's analysis, the Space Marines found this truly amazing.

But Kahn thought more: "The Void Shield is a defensive device. Why does it have the function of using obsession as a chain to fix the soul in the real universe?"

"Use human spiritual power, such as obsession and desire, to strengthen the defensive capabilities of the Void Shield." Qin Xia looked at Kahn and said what he felt just now. "When Tark's soul dissipated, I felt that the defensive power of the Void Shield was slightly weakened. This should not be an illusion."

“Is it safe, then?” Angron asked.

Qin Xia did not respond immediately.

Just now, when he used his psychic vision to inspect the void shield, he found that this thing had a projection in the subspace, which was a transparent bubble.

Warp creatures cannot break through the bubble and enter the interior.

Psychic vision is also unable to break through the bubble and see what is inside. This may be why psychic vision cannot see the existence of indigenous people on Nu.

Outside the effective range of the void shield, even the existence of the void shield cannot be seen with psychic vision.

Only after entering the effective range can you see the vortex and then infer the location of the void shield.

fantastic.

"I can be sure of one thing, that is, this thing has defensive capabilities both in reality and outside of reality." Qin Xia said.

Kahn suddenly remembered something bad.

During the Terran Unification War, there was an ancient technological creation owned by a warlord that was powered by human suffering.

"I think we should keep this thing." Qin Xia looked at Angron, as if discussing something. "Tark is attached to the Void Shield like a machine spirit. He may think that he has become the permanent owner of the Void Shield, but he doesn't know that he is just a consumable used to strengthen the defense."

"And now he's gone. We didn't destroy him the same way we destroyed the void shield."

"Let me study this void shield for a bit more time and find out more information. Then I'll decide whether to use it or keep it."

Every word Qin Xia said was about how he had handled suspicious technological creations in the past.

Those rubbish that look suspicious at first glance, or whose functions are not suspicious but are too poor and have no means of defending against subspace creatures, will be destroyed directly.

However, those useful, advanced creations that have a certain degree of defense against the influence of the subspace even when using subspace technology will be retained and used after careful exploration.

But now Angron had different ideas.

“I don’t think it should be kept.”

Kahn couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that the Primarch was thinking the same thing as he was.

“You’ve always done similar things yourself.” Angron pointed at the void shield. “It’s bound to be the same this time, but this damn thing can lock a person’s soul. What if… I don’t want to think about it, but what if…”

"This is much safer than the Soul Sea Freestyle that I often do," Qin Xia said.

Angron was silent for a moment, and then he spoke again, "Let's make a deal, Father. I will study this thing with you, and if it gets out of control I will smash it to pieces."

Qin Xia did not make a decision immediately. He recalled that Angron did not always agree with him, and if they did, Angron would argue with him.

Such as now.

"Okay." Qin Xia finally nodded in agreement, "I'm not a fool either. If anything unusual happens, I will work with you to destroy it."

Angron smiled and nodded.

Kahn had a complicated expression as he watched all this and sighed secretly in his heart.

Those very ancient technological creations of Nuceria will definitely become a problem. The Emperor may be preparing to deal with this issue, and deal with it seriously. Or perhaps, as the Primarch said, he is deliberately holding on to this handle just to make the Primarch feel that he is unpredictable.

This matter is not easy to handle.

But Kahn also knew that he could do nothing but sigh, and he didn't even dare to think about who he should stand behind when this problem broke out and the Primarch was ready to fight against the Emperor.

……

"A group of Nusatellites arrived on Nusatellite II. They used huge construction machinery to dig out the buildings, and then used tractor beams to pull up the void shield and transport it away."

"When the void shields were no longer effective, the Librarians and the strange psyker who followed the Primarch found the location of each native, and then the Legionnaires cleaned up the remaining enemies while saving people."

"The number 31 made everyone nervous. Inevitably, there were accidental killings during the battle, and 31 became 21."

"But fortunately, when the last native was rescued, 21 was fixed forever and the battle was over."

"The Primarch asked each of us to follow his example and carve the Cord of Triumph on our backs after victory."

"A red scar that means the glory after a victory."

Nusa landing site.

Kahn was leaning against the foot of a knight mech that was being repaired, holding a special pen for Space Marines that the Imperial War Council had ordered to be produced at the Terra factory, and recording everything that had happened recently.

A sergeant suddenly rolled over the knight's feet and sat next to Kahn.

Kahn turned to glance at the sergeant of the 8th Ranger Company and continued recording.

"Centurion," the sergeant said straight to the point, "I think our Primarch is a little... a little too lenient."

"Yes." Kahn continued to record, "It can even be called weak in some aspects."

The sergeant was terrified by these extremely straightforward words.

The sergeant stared at his captain: "But you seem to be the one who is most eager to be recognized by the Primarch. You and the legion commander are the same. When our father returned, you were even a little flattering..."

Without even looking up, Kahn spoke calmly and gently, "He is our Primarch, the Gene Father. What kind of person is he that affects this fact? Because he is not as decisive as us, will he change the glorious duties that the Twelfth Legion has always followed, and even make the enemy no longer feel fear when they hear the name of the Twelfth Legion... so we abandon him?"

The sergeant was speechless.

"Be thankful."

Kahn said as he wrote.

"He is not a cold and cruel Primarch like Perturabo, and we are not the Iron Warriors."

"Otherwise, when he saw us, he decided to give us, the descendants who did not please him, a gift. This gift is called the Tithe Killing Order, which requires nine out of ten of us to kill the one who was drawn by the lot..."

"Will the Legion Commander refuse to execute it? Will you refuse?"

Faced with Kahn's question, the sergeant fell into thought and finally gave Kahn a clear answer.

"If he gave that kind of order, I think I would comply."
