Chapter 104: Broken Planet and Prairie Rider
Chapter 104: Broken Planet and Prairie Rider
Zhou Yun slowly opened his eyes from the bed.
As the noise outside filled his ears, his sleepiness quickly dissipated in the morning light.
Jeanne's gentle breathing also sounded in his ears.
This little girl hasn't woken up since she returned from the bottom nest, and she hasn't even eaten.
But she had no physical problems and was healthy.
Zhou Yun could only guess what the Emperor was up to.
After Zhou Yun glanced at Jeanna, he yawned and got up from the bed.
He leaned over the small window on the door and looked outside
The already crowded crowd in Xiachao has become even more crowded.
The population evacuation work for Xiachao has recently begun, and many residents from other districts have begun to flock to the district where Zhou Yun is located.
These residents gathered on the side of the street, built simple huts with various materials and squeezed into them.
Some smart residents even set up small stalls and started small businesses.
Of course, since the Governor has closed the channel for exchanging blood coins for blood stones, people have now returned to the form of barter.
lho cigarettes replaced blood coins and became the new hard currency.
The streets were filled with the sounds of bargaining all night long.
If Zhou Yun had not acquired the ability to fall asleep quickly, his sleep quality at night would have been very poor.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the iron door of Zhou Yun's room.
Zhou Yun stood up and opened the door.
All I saw was a set of silver armor gleaming brightly under the lights of the hive city.
Battle Sister Ajlaide stood outside Zhou Yun's door, followed by two younger battle sisters.
The Battle Sisters of the Holy Rose were responsible for evacuating the residents of Asford together with the members of the Ark Gang.
Most of the people in the Lower Nest are devout believers of the state religion. It is easier for the Battle Sisters to gain their trust than the Astra Militarum.
There were already 10,000 combat sisters stationed on Lesio. In order to help Asford evacuate the residents, Sister Magda specially dispatched 2,000 combat sisters.
Basically, each district in the Lower Nest is managed by one or two battle sisters, and they have a heavy workload.
Zhou Yun noticed the dark circles around Agilade's eyes, and also noticed a small Sanguinius sticker on her shiny silver power armor. The pattern on the sticker looked a bit like a child's sketch, not sacred but cute.
"It was given to me by a kid on the street just now." Agilade noticed Zhou Yun's gaze and said a little shamefully.
"I'm quite popular with the kids." The winged figure in the white light also noticed the sticker.
"You look very tired." Zhou Yun nodded slightly and said, "Sleep is very important."
"Not bad." Agilide rubbed her eyes and said, "Much better than being in Lesio."
"You have no idea what we are doing on Lesio. We are tasked with educating the local populace to the Emperor's faith."
"But the local people have many superstitious beliefs. Sister Magda hopes to educate them in a more peaceful way, but sometimes she has to use extreme measures."
"Especially the sect that believes in the Salt Goddess. We often have conflicts with them and are often treated as butchers."
Sister Agelade smiled bitterly:
“Although it’s a bit tired here, at least the residents are devout believers of the state religion and they didn’t spit at us.”
Zhou Yun nodded. He knew the situation in Lesio. Sister Magda was considered moderate, but the missionary method of the combat nuns would always involve death.
However, the so-called Salt Goddess sect is not a good thing either. It has been infiltrated by the thieves a long time ago.
"I'm sorry, Master Zhou Yun." Sister Agilade rubbed her tired cheeks and said, "We talked about some things that took up a lot of time - where is that girl?"
There was some curiosity in Agilide's eyes.
Zhou Yun told her some of Jeanna's affairs.
After hearing this, Agilade still had some disbelief.
If it is true that the emperor performed such a miracle on a girl, then this child could be worshipped as a living saint.
Zhou Yun nodded gently, turned around, picked up Jeanna from the bed, and walked back to the door.
"I'll leave this child to you to protect." Zhou Yun handed Jeanne to Sister Agilade and said.
What Zhou Yun was going to do next was really impossible to drag along the little girl, Jeanna, who was always in a state of sleep.
The best way is to leave it to the protection of the combat nuns and escort it to a safe area.
"Whether or not this child is truly chosen by the Emperor, we will protect her."
Agilide said this solemnly, as if to reassure Zhou Yun.
"Please don't worry." said Agilide.
Zhou Yun was slightly stunned: "No, I've always been quite relieved."
"After all, given this girl's current condition, I think the Emperor has other plans for her."
"The Emperor will surely not allow her to come into danger until that arrangement is complete."
Zhou Yun casually spoke out his thoughts.
He and the winged figure in the white light had previously speculated that Jeanne's current condition might have been prepared by the Emperor so that she could be of use elsewhere.
As Agilade listened to Zhou Yun's words, she couldn't help but widen her eyes and even showed some shame.
Even the two young nuns behind Agilade showed shocked expressions.
"What a devout faith! It makes me ashamed."
As if Agilide had misunderstood something, she bowed her head and piously performed the Sky Eagle Salute:
"You are right, we just need to be loyal, and the Emperor will take care of His people." "." Zhou Yun wanted to say that this was not what he meant,
But facing the admiring gazes of Agilade and the two young nuns, he felt speechless for a moment.
After Sister Agilade held Jeanna in her arms, she nodded slightly to Zhou Yun and left in a hurry.
She was still very busy with the work she was responsible for. Many foreign residents had flocked into the area, making it increasingly crowded.
Agilide must protect this important district and ensure that no Chaos cultists or thieves sneak in and create chaos.
Zhou Yun walked out of the house where he had lived for a long time. He was afraid that he would never come back here again.
The war is about to begin, and some old things will inevitably change.
Although the blue-feathered bird in the highest heaven is annoying, the way of change it preaches does make sense.
Zhou Yun walked among the crowded crowd. He noticed that all the sheds around him were hung with various pieces of paper, statues and decorations symbolizing Saint Gilles.
Could it be that because of the impending arrival of the Tyranid Swarm, the residents of Asford have begun to seek inner peace from Sanguinius?
Zhou Yun thought with some doubt.
"You" The winged figure in the white light couldn't help but shook his head at Zhou Yun.
Zhou Yun blinked in confusion. Is this guy brighter than usual today?
Just as Zhou Yun was thinking, a pleading voice suddenly sounded beside him.
"Sir, for the sake of Saint Guinius, let's do the math." A hoarse and unpleasant child's voice sounded.
Zhou Yun lowered his head and found that he had stopped in front of a stall.
There was a simple deck of cards on the stand, and a skinny girl, about Jeanne's age and not very pretty, was sitting behind the stand.
Her face showed exhaustion and hunger.
It's the Emperor Tarot.
Recently, many stalls on the street are doing Emperor Tarot calculations.
After all, disaster is approaching, and people always hope to find some inspiration from it.
Zhou Yun also had nothing to do and counted a few times.
Most people who read the Emperor Tarot just draw a few random cards and then talk nonsense.
To truly use the Emperor Tarot is a technical skill.
The reason why he could accurately identify the white figure and Jeanna in the corner of his eyes was that they both possessed extraordinary psychic powers.
But after seeing the hopeful look in the child's eyes behind the stall, Zhou Yun couldn't help but sigh softly, then looked at the child.
"Come on, let me see if there is any difference between you and those street hustlers."
Zhou Yun squatted down, looked at the skinny girl in front of him and said,
He put a lho cigarette into the girl's hand,
The girl's eyes were full of gratitude, and she began to shuffle the cards awkwardly.
Obviously, this kid has only been in this business for a short time.
Zhou Yun pulled out a card from the folded simple playing cards.
The card depicts a planet, like a broken egg, full of cracks, with huge pieces floating in the void of the universe. Card 52, the Broken World,
It foreshadows conflict on a massive scale and the death of the world.
Zhou Yun's eyes twitched slightly, and he drew the next card from the deck.
The card depicts a vast grassland with a rider riding a snow-white horse on it and an eagle hanging on the rider's arm. The fifth card, Prairie Rider.
Foreshadows impending danger or salvation, depending on the previous card.
The two cards together mean that a danger powerful enough to destroy a planet is about to arrive.
Zhou Yun looked at the little girl in surprise.
You are really good at calculating!
"Why are there these two again?" The little girl murmured sadly, "Sorry sir, I don't know what went wrong."
"As long as I'm at my booth, the cards I draw will definitely be these two. I'll return your money."
"This girl has some mild psychic talent," said the winged figure in the white light.
A weak psychic talent?
Zhou Yun suddenly realized.
There are many psykers who have only slight psyker talents. They are often just luckier and better at divination, and may never discover that they are psykers in their entire lives.
This little girl is really good, but it seems that because of this reason, her business is not very good.
The cards she draws are the same every time. Who would want to ask her for divination?
Zhou Yun thought about it, took out a few more cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed them into the girl's hands.
"You are more capable than those swindler street fortune tellers, but unfortunately not many people know what you are talking about."
Before the little girl could recover from her surprise, Zhou Yun stood up and left.
