Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 216 Genius Girl, Psychic Curse

Luo Xi brought the psychic girl named Joy to the monastery where Titus and other think tanks were.

The think tank director and his battle brothers placed Joey into a transparent glass psychic instrument shaped like an incubator.

A large number of silver-white cables extended into the instrument and connected to Joey, and at the other end of the cables was the think tank director.

Although Titus Prieto is only a Beta-level psyker, it does not mean that his strength is limited to this.

Although a psychic's combat effectiveness is proportional to his psychic level to a certain extent, his personal skills, willpower and even mental state will greatly affect his performance.

A psionicist's psychic level represents the upper limit to the total amount of psychic energy that can be stored. In battle, some psionicists can only squander their psychic energy at will, while experienced think tanks can use less psychic energy to leverage greater power.

As the psychic power exerted by the think tanks increased, the girl placed in the instrument also responded accordingly.

She opened her eyes, and the psychic power contained in her body actively fought against the invader.

The tender hands projected crisscrossing psychic lightning, and for a moment a fierce and invisible confrontation broke out in the monastery.

The Librarians chant the name of the Emperor to strengthen their beliefs and will.

The scene that suddenly unfolded was clearly beyond the understanding of a mortal mother.

Alina covered her mouth in horror, she only knew that Joey might be a psychic, but she never thought that she could actually fight against those honorable Astartes Librarians.

On one side is a human child who is no more than two years old, and on the other side is a psychic think tank who is wearing heavy power armor and devoted to practice.

Joey in the instrument let out a psychic scream, a childish but terrifying sound, with invisible ripples vibrating. Luo Xi vaguely felt as if a drill was wriggling in his head, and a strong feeling of dizziness came over him.

"Joy!"

Elena shouted loudly, and the girl who was using psychic power immediately turned her head to the side, confused and dazed. This obvious loophole would obviously not be let go. Titus shouted the name of the Emperor, and he seemed to be in the glory of psychic power, temporarily sealing the psychic power in Joey.

He put a psychic headband on Joey's forehead. This obsidian-colored psychic headband can effectively help the user control his or her psychic power.

The girl whose psychic power was suppressed fell silent. Her clear and flawless eyes looked at everyone present curiously, as if she had no memory of what had just happened.

"She is fine for now, but this is not permanent. Our psychic seal cannot block her for too long."

Titus said, with faint ice crystals condensed on his power armor, which were traces of the power of the warp flowing through.

"Alina, your daughter is undoubtedly a psychic genius. As for the sleeping sickness you mentioned, it may be that her fragile body cannot withstand her powerful psychic power."

Luo Xi translated the details he observed into understandable words and relayed them to the mother.

"Sir, what about Joey? Is there any hope for her recovery?" Elina asked.

Her eyes were full of hope, as if she really believed that psychic power could be cured like those diseases.

This is cruel, but Luo Xi still hopes that she can know the truth.

"At present, we don't have the so-called [healing] ability for psychics. It is a gift and also a curse. But it seems that Joey's psychic power is relatively stable. Maybe she can become a controllable psychic."

Psychics can almost be said to be a subspecies of humans, mutants that appeared in the long process of human development. To turn a psychic back into an ordinary person is probably as difficult as turning a cooked egg back into a raw egg that can hatch chicks.

The mother looked at her child with complicated eyes.

If psychic energy could be controlled, then it wouldn't seem like an unacceptable outcome.

After experiencing the war in Causse, she only hoped that her daughter could stay away from those terrible things and live a peaceful life. However, those curses still came to her door, and Elina's heart was in great turmoil, but she hid everything under a calm surface.

However, the girl in the psychic suppression device did not remain quiet for long.

As the readings on the display next to him soared sharply and a shrill buzzing sound began to sound, Titus Prieto watched the new round of psychic reactions seriously. Their suppression seemed to further stimulate the child's psychic potential.

"My advice is to act decisively, sir. There is still time." The think tank director said to Luo Xi.

The changes in Joey's body continued. This two-year-old girl released terrifying psychic fluctuations. Titus felt a heavy pressure coming over him.

He had to draw more power from the warp to strengthen himself.

Under the gaze of everyone, Joey's body gradually stretched out. An immaterial force was changing her. The flow of time changed. She was growing from a little girl into a young woman.

The growth and development time that originally took several years was compressed into just a few minutes under the catalysis of spiritual energy.

As his body gradually matured, Titus keenly realized that the other party's psychic power was constantly strengthening. At this moment, he had completely confirmed a fact: Joey was a genuine Alpha-level psychic.

What appeared in the transparent instrument was a slender white body, with long black hair draped over her chest and her hands crossed to hug her shoulders.

Joey gently opened his eyes and turned his eyes to look at the crowd outside the reinforced glass.

At the same time, her soul released dazzling light in the chaotic subspace. If the soul of an ordinary person is just a faint spark in the subspace, then Joey's projection in the subspace is a splendid beacon.

She showed her existence without any scruples, announcing her birth.

Some malicious beings wandering in the Sea of ​​Souls were surprised to discover this tender and delicious soul. They screamed and rushed over, trying to devour it before other warp creatures found it.

The think tank director's psychic eyes could also see clearly what was happening in the subspace. When Joey released his light unrestrainedly, he realized that something was wrong.

The first lesson a psychic needs to learn is to control themselves and hide themselves. Otherwise, with their conspicuousness in the subspace, they will inevitably attract a large number of malicious beings.

In the past, psykers relied on word-of-mouth experience to call them malicious entities, but as their understanding of the Warp deepened, Titus realized that those things were Warp Demons.

He drew the grenade launcher from his waist and without hesitation, aimed at the girl's head and fired three devastating bombs.

At such a close distance, even a Space Marine would find it difficult to resist the attack of the Librarian. However, the spiral bomb was crushed into powder by a powerful psychic force before it even touched Joey's body.

The frightened girl released wave after wave of psychic shocks. In the subspace, the subspace demons that were rushing over suddenly stopped. They were horrified by the psychic shocks released by the fresh soul of the human in front of them.

run!
These not-so-powerful Warp Demons immediately tried to escape. An ordinary human soul was indeed a rare delicacy, but the psychic power possessed by this soul was too strong, so strong that it could even transform from prey to hunter.

Nothing is permanent in the Warp. Demons can devour human souls, but an Alpha-level human psyker can also tear apart those malicious demons.

However, they were too close, and the awakened Joey used his psychic power to instinctively restrain the demons that were trying to escape, then crushed them bit by bit, and anxiously picked out the essence from the fragments.

Accompanied by a death scream, those overly anxious Warp Demons were swallowed up like candy beans by the two-year-old human girl.

The think tank director witnessed the scene.

"What a terrifying talent! It can kill the Warp Demons that come after hearing the news just after it awakens."

He took a long breath, but this did not mean that this newly born Alpha-level psychic was on the human side. She was too young, and her emotions were no different from those of a two-year-old child.

Faced with such a dangerous human psyker, Titus will have to choose to kill her for the safety of Macragge.
