Warhammer: My Biological Father Emperor and My Demigod Brother

He composed himself, calmly jumped into the tunnel, and landed steadily.

Whether it was due to the influence of psionic energy or not, these forces were enough to break a mortal's bones, but Aaron, sitting on his power backpack, remained motionless and completely unharmed.

"Now we begin the first phase of the mission: follow the intelligence to explore the tunnel and reach the location where Gabriel was first discovered."

Claudius said in a deep voice, which turned cold, and took the first step forward, but made almost no sound.

Gradually, the movement of moving forward even turned into running.

The exploration progress that the Mechanicus had taken so long to make was overtaken by the Space Marines in just over ten minutes.

Soon they saw the remains of the Mechanicus members lying limp on the ground, their flesh and metal torn apart with exquisite precision rather than destroyed by immense force or weapons.

This means that Gabriel even used members of the Mechanicus as a research subject, carefully separating and observing them.

Well, if you asked Angron to describe it, it would be separating the edible and inedible parts of food.

In Aaron's view, these robes, stained with what he couldn't tell was engine oil or blood, covered metal or fleshy bodies, and those gear patterns—

Perhaps it also represents a direction of human exploration.

I just don't know if those iron men have gods, and whether the gods of the iron men are related to the god of all machines worshipped by the mechanical god cult.

If there are four ancient deities in the subspace, then the gods of skill and wisdom represented by mechanical creations will bring harmony to the entire universe.

Everything is transformed into a machine.

Or is it an even more vicious form of torture?

May the god of all machines grant your souls peace.

Aaron thought to himself, "Perhaps for these believers, seeing God after death would bring them happiness?"

They quickly rushed through the tunnel and arrived at the location where they had first encountered Gabriel.

There were no corpses to be seen, not even bloodstains, suggesting that the area had been cleaned up.

The entire hall was empty except for the grand, tightly closed door at the very front, and a gap above one half of a door on one side, where the hood of a cult priest still lingered, trembling slightly in the wind blowing through the gap.

Chapter 499 Exploring Gabriel, The Unseen Astartes (3K)

"We have arrived at the location where we encountered Gabriel. We are now beginning the second phase of the mission."

“Extract environmental samples and then fire a probe javelin at the gap.”

Claudius explained that the Mechanicus encountered Gabriel seemingly because they directly explored the gap in the gate.

They should thoroughly inspect the open area in front of the gate before venturing into the gap.

At the same time, a detection tool should be launched first, rather than the person entering.

This aligns perfectly with the safety guidelines Aaron heard from Little Pei.

It seems the Space Marines are quite law-abiding, while the Mechanicus, obsessed with exploring lost technologies and machines, are too adventurous.

Just as a savage who is not a devout believer may possess the good moral qualities that religions promote.

On the contrary, some people who have taken on the identity of clergy have committed many acts that should be called sins, driven by their fanaticism.

Aaron felt that his thoughts were wandering too far, perhaps a result of his father's tendency to jump from one thing to another.

When a new idea pops into my head and excites me, I immediately shift my attention away from it.

If I hadn't remained relatively clear-headed and kept in mind my primary task, I probably would have gone mad long ago.

Wait a minute—isn't this the legendary Alzheimer's disease?

My father has mentioned many ideas about the future, including the existence of genetic diseases.

He only looks like a little old man because he is still immortal and usually doesn't care about his appearance.

But I'm not immortal, what if I become an idiot when I get old?

She even looks older than her father. Who will take care of her then?

Aaron shuddered, thinking that there were still 599 years to go, and there was no point in worrying about it now.

At worst, when I get old and can't move, my father will kick me out of the house and I'll be left to sleep under bridges.

At least I can take advantage of the dream to visit my twenty-odd brothers and take turns eating with them.

Anyway, it wasn't his hair that fell out.

As Aaron thought this, his body continued to move spontaneously toward the goal of exploring the tunnel, checking the open area for anything noteworthy.

Unfortunately, apart from some murals and written symbols, the group found nothing here that they could disassemble and take back.

After patrolling around, the group gathered and took out detection javelins from their equipment boxes.

Once the handle of this thing is pulled out of the lock, it really does resemble a javelin.

Aaron couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Claudius, don't we have any self-probing robots?"

"Don't worry about scaring me, I've seen your servant skulls before. Skull worship isn't anything shameful."

Aaron had seen those mechanical beetles from the Space Necromancers. Even if human civilization is wary of mechanical intelligence, it shouldn't be unable to create a machine that can at least record video or perform a brief environmental analysis.

Claudius suddenly felt a little embarrassed when he heard this question.

Because these items were personally selected by the father.

They do have some self-contained robots, but they are at least more advanced than servo-controlled skulls, and their appearance is also more...

At least when his father first saw this thing after his return, he was so frightened that he almost thought the human empire had been corrupted by chaos.

He could only answer while making the throwing motion:

"Things without their own intelligence are probably safer; the other party should have some kind of intelligent detection method."

This is indeed one of the reasons for using detection javelins.

Claudius aimed perfectly, his body moving like a perfectly executed mechanical launcher, and suddenly fired the javelin, hitting the bullseye and embedding it perfectly into the gap in the gate.

The crowd immediately became alert, taking defensive stances and surrounding Aaron within the Astartes.

This meant that Aaron had to climb back onto Claudius's powered backpack to see what was happening outside.

The deathly silence lasted for a long time, with only the detection signals received by Claudius being relayed back to the ship.

There was no further movement, and no one knew what was going on inside.

Perhaps Gabriel has already left.

"The probe javelin has reached its designated position and has not yet encountered any attacks from Gabriel."

"We will proceed to the third phase. You stay here, and I will approach the breach to investigate."

After Claudius finished speaking, he walked forward, leaving the four men who remained behind motionless.

They even tacitly allowed Aaron to be taken away on Claudius's back.

Now may be the time for Aaron to make his mark; the Father of Genetics wouldn't emphasize this person's existence without a reason.

Perhaps my father has found many empires from more than 10,000 years ago to help him.

Just like Ares, who may be an immortal being from the same era as His Majesty, who helped the Ultramarines enter the front lines and has never been defeated, achieving all combat objectives.

Perhaps Aaron was one of those immortals.

The seal-bearer, Macardo, left behind many contingency plans, the most famous of which was the Inquisition, an institution that everyone disliked.

However, the Empire also had to acknowledge the enormous role the Inquisition played in maintaining the Empire.

Claudius quietly arrived at the gate and began to scan the engraved markings on it simultaneously.

This door is heavy and magnificent; if you ignore the structure connecting the buildings on both sides, it looks more like a tombstone.

Could something have actually died inside?

Aaron reached out and touched the door. The material was cold, and he couldn't tell if it was stone or metal.

Looking up, the area with the most symbols and patterns is located in the center of the gate.

Its main body is a relief ring, with half on each side.

A huge chain extends from the left ring, binding a massive, winged being.

The ring on the right was held by a huge being, whose other hand held a plain-looking one-handed straight sword burning with flames, the blade pointing directly at the bound figure on the left.

From the point where the circles intersect, as you go higher, the patterns gradually resemble the roots of a tree, eventually forming a towering tree at the very top of the gate.

The head of the bound angel on the left corresponds to the serpent whose head is entwined in the canopy of a tree, with its head pointing downwards.

The tree canopy only had branches and leaves; there were no fruits, birds, or other small animals for food.

I don't know why they drew snakes in there. These cold-blooded animals wouldn't expend energy climbing so high if they weren't hunting for prey.

Aaron thought to himself, "If the old man were here, he would definitely say that."

When Xiao An saw this, she could only judge the proportions and start thinking about whether the snake soup tasted good.

As for the angel on the right, there is no projection; that being itself did not differentiate into other images.

What does this mean?

An angel who had repented of his sins was therefore chained up.

At the same time, his image also changed to a snake on a tree crown?

I don't understand. Why are all these stories about what happened after you died? Can't you Iron Man people explore the cultural heritage of our polytheistic era more?

That's also very valuable, okay?

Aaron and Claudius couldn't understand the significance of the scene, so they could only climb up and enter the gap in the gate to check the situation.

The Mechanicus members in the original scene were climbing slowly, but thanks to Claudius's efforts, the two reached the gap in a short time.

This is also the place where the first images of Gabriel were captured.

Aaron climbed in first, somewhat surprised:

"This gap is too big. Even if two Astartes were stacked on top of each other and stood inside, they would only just touch the top of the opening. If we consider Gabriel's estimated height, that thing would have to crawl out of there instead of walking out."

Claudius simply took a few steps forward and stood in front of Aaron.
