Perturabo's voice came from a distance, and the sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the hall.
His tall figure passed through the wall of guards and rushed to Dorn in two steps.
Those always calm and sharp ice-blue eyes rarely revealed a hint of panic. He stared at Dorn nervously, as if to make sure that every inch of his skin was intact.
Wop followed closely behind, his usually calm eyes now filled with worry, "Are you okay?"
The concerned looks from his father and brother filled Dawn's heart with warmth. He slowly shook his head, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Wop: "What happened?"
Dorn explained solemnly, "It's a group of psykers who have taken control of the Governor's body in some way. 'Possession' might be a more accurate term."
"They took over the Governor's body, planned this rebellion, and are now trying to take over my body."
"Unfortunately, they chose the wrong target. The psychic who attempted to invade me was reduced to ashes, and the rest of his accomplices were also wiped out by me."
Perturabo looked at his father, the only one here who knew the most about psykers.
Wop: "There are five basic disciplines for psychics: biochemistry, prophecy, firebending, telekinesis, and telepathy. Telepathy is a hallmark of manipulation, while biochemistry is thought to be the one that disintegrates the human body."
"The Empire uses a 24-point system to calculate the power of psykers, with the lowest being level 0 and the highest being level 23 and above."
"Rho // Pi-class are mortals without psionic gifts."
"Omicron // Xi // Nu // Mu // Lambda // Kappa-class only display psionic talents under stressful circumstances."
"Lota // Theta // Eta class is a mid-level psyker, and a true psyker in the conventional sense."
"Zeta // Epsilon class are powerful psykers who use their psionic powers effortlessly."
"Up to the thirteenth level, Delta level only produces one person per billion. The probability of Gamma//Beta//Alpha level is even lower, but overall it is the highest level that humans can control."
"The 17th-level Alpha+ and 18th-level Beta+ are the most powerful psykers ever born, but their connection to the Warp is too deep to maintain sanity."
Perturabo: "This is only level 18. What's above that?"
Wop: "Anything above that exists only in theory. Even if they exist, they are definitely not human."
"Gamma+ is the highest level of psionic power a living being can display. Delta+ and Epsilon+ only exist in theory."
“Zeta+ is another purely theoretical level.”
"Further up, Eta+ (23) - Omega+ (40) has already surpassed the scope of real universe creatures. Psychics at this level can already rewrite reality on a galactic scale."
Perturabo turned to Wop, his voice thoughtful. "Father, are those so-called 'gods' essentially just powerful 'psychics' above level 23?"
Wop: "From an energy perspective, you can understand it that way, but they are conceptually completely different from 'psychics'."
“When the force reaches a certain critical point, quantitative change will lead to qualitative change.”
"Not only do their power levels far exceed mortals' comprehension, their forms of existence and concepts are also fundamentally different from those of psykers."
Dorn analyzed calmly, "Judging from the strength of the abilities displayed by the psykers who attacked me, they were able to suppress Sister Sapphire's psychic powers. There must be at least one Delta-level psyker among them."
"But if they are already powerful psykers, why are they ineffective against me?"
Wop: "The culture of the Warp is vast and profound, and humans know very little about psionics."
"The Twenty-Four Divisions and the science of psionics can only explain human perception of psionics, but cannot explain true psionics."
"According to my understanding, since psychic power has positive and negative levels, psychic resistance can also be considered a type of psychic power."
"Individuals with psionic resistance can withstand higher levels of psionic damage, but this is fundamentally different from being untouchable."
"The Untouchables possess an anti-psychic field, which is forbidden magic."
"And psychic resistance simply increases your tolerance to psychic energy, making it harder to be harmed by it. It's more like magic resistance."
"The Primarch is naturally endowed with a strong resistance to psychic energy. Unless you are a psyker above Alpha level, it is difficult for him to directly harm you with psychic energy."
As descendants of the Primarch, Space Marines are also naturally resistant to psionic powers.
However, this resistance also varies significantly between individuals, and Space Marines with low psychic resistance can be crushed to death by Zeta-level psykers.
Space Marines with high psychic resistance can even face the onslaught of Warp energy. Even if that force can easily kill tens of thousands of Space Marines, being in front of them will be as relaxing as taking a bath.
But even if these special Space Marines existed, they were no match for the anti-psychic power fields of the Untouchables.
The principles of the two are completely different.
In terms of psychic resistance alone, excluding very few exceptions, Primarchs > Custodes > Thunder Marines > Space Marines.
Although Ji Yexin is always criticized for his low psychic resistance, it is also because his enemies are all monsters. Ka Ertou is the top demon, and Xiao Ma Ge is the top demon prince.
Even if they are restricted by the laws of the universe, they will at least start at Alpha+ level.
Faced with a "psychic" of this level, even if it were any other Primarch, it would probably be no surprise that they would kneel down.
Dorn: "Father, what is your rank?"
Wop: "It should be above Alpha level. After all, it was Neos who gave me the power, so the level can't be too low."
Worp never truly demonstrated his psychic powers because reality never gave him the opportunity to show his true power.
Even though he possesses psychic powers powerful enough to change the course of battle, he will only use them prudently when necessary and will never use them to vent his emotions.
The more emotional a psychic is, the more likely he is to lose control.
Perturabo: "Father, what level is our biological father at?"
Wop paused for a moment before answering, "At least Gamma+."
The standard for Alpha+ level is to have the power to destroy the entire world by one's own strength.
The old horse is Alpha+ level, and the young horse is stronger than the old horse, perhaps Beta+ level.
The Emperor is able to remotely power the Astronomican across the galaxy, allowing the light it burns to illuminate the entire galaxy.
At the same time, he still has the energy to demonstrate a psychic level that surpasses that of Xiao Ma Ge. He uses psychic energy to compress stars and give them to his descendants as a gift. Saying that he is Gamma+ level is an underestimation of him.
But this is beyond Wop's understanding, and humans are not capable of counting psychic powers at this level. Levels above that only exist in theory.
As for what level of psychic the Emperor is, perhaps even he himself may not have a clear awareness of it.
His power is unparalleled in the real universe, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a living lesser god.
The Emperor's death would only free him from the limitations of his mortal body and transform him directly into a unique dark god in the warp.
Perturabo: "Father, please give Dorn a thorough examination."
His voice was low, his eyes filled with anxiety. "The methods of psychics are treacherous and unpredictable. There's no guarantee that they won't leave hidden dangers."
He said psykers, but both Worp and Dorn knew he meant Them.
"Relax." There was a light blue light in Wop's hand, and Dorn knelt on one knee calmly so that his father could touch his hair.
It is only natural for descendants to kneel before their fathers. No Primarch would feel ashamed of this, let alone be on guard against their fathers.
Psychic energy seeped into Dorn's consciousness like a trickle, and Dorn felt that the nerve fibers that were tense in the battle were now being gently combed.
He could even sense a certain...smell unique to his father's psychic power, which he could hardly describe in words.
It is almost impossible to take over the body of a Primarch, even if the psyker is a great demon.
The only successful case of a demon taking over the body of an original body was Snake Lady, and he took advantage of Snake Lady's loss of concentration.
That time, it was actually because Mrs. Snake mistakenly killed Fei Mamei that her mentality exploded, and she took the initiative to give her body to the devil.
And when Mrs. Snake decided to resist, he easily took back her body.
But if the shameless Four Gods took action themselves, they could still leave the seeds of corruption in the Primarch's soul.
"No abnormalities were found. Dorn's soul is as pure as fresh snow."
The light in Wop's hand gradually dissipated, and his palm slowly drooped, a trace of fatigue appearing between his brows. "But perhaps the corruption is too deep, and my ability is not enough. When Neos arrives, let him give Dorn a thorough examination. There is no one in the real universe who is more skilled in this field than him."
"Thank you, Father." Dorn and Perturabo simultaneously reached out to support Wop.
"My Lord!" Lann walked quickly towards the Primarch and knelt on one knee.
Dawn slowly stood up: "Have you found out their identities?"
Lann bowed his head. "They have been identified. They are the psykers that should have been handed over a year ago."
Dorn's brow furrowed slightly. "Take me to the cell where they're being held."
The Empire was built on psykers.
This is true for the Human Empire, and the Invert Empire is no exception.
The Emperor is the only cornerstone of the Imperium of Man; Primarchs and sacrifices must take a backseat.
Navigators are special psykers who are treated with favor throughout the Empire.
Ordinary psykers in the Empire usually have only three options: either become astropaths, become legal psykers or Space Marine think tanks, or become consumables.
Humans must always keep the Geller Field active when navigating the warp, and maintaining the Geller Field requires the consumption of psykers.
Aside from the psykers who died while undergoing the Astropath Trial, the Geller Field is one of the main ways to consume consumables.
The Invert Empire also uses short-distance subspace travel to maintain its territory, and has a huge demand for psychics.
One of Krobus's duties is to provide a large amount of consumables to the Invert Empire.
Krobus has a population of 100 billion and theoretically has about 100 powerful psykers of Delta level and above.
There are more low-level psykers, enough to sustain the daily consumption of a small empire.
The Krobus government would usually capture psykers in the hive, bind their psychic powers with phase iron, and then hand them over when Invit ships came to collect taxes.
But a year ago, Krobus rebelled.
These psychics did not become consumables, but instead became the masters of Krobus.
Dorn stared at the empty cell, and Wop spoke slowly, "Just like in the hall, there are remnants of psychic activity, but no Warp energy, and no signs of profanity."
Psionics and warp energy have the same origin, but they give people different feelings.
Psionic energy simply makes people feel cold, while warp energy is cold and carries naked malice, which is easy to distinguish.
The probability of Krobus being invaded by the Warp is very small.
Otherwise, what they would see along the way would be all kinds of unrealistic demon caves instead of normal nest cities.
Dorn murmured softly, "So, the psykers weren't corrupted by the Warp, they simply rebelled."
Perturabo called softly, "Dorn."
"Don't worry, brother, I'm not that sentimental."
A rebellion is a rebellion, whatever its motive, and the nature of the suppression will not change.
Dorn: "Lane, thoroughly investigate all those involved in this case: the guards, the transport team, the auditors, the law enforcers, and even those close to the Governor. I want to know how these psykers broke through the constraints of the phase iron and how they were able to possess the Governor despite the layers of supervision."
"As you command, my lord."
Chapter 207: Dual Empires (5K)
"I have found out the whole story of the rebellion and found that Alik Cochin was the instigator of the rebellion."
At the Invert Empire Conference, Dorn faced the other members and addressed the parliament in a calm voice.
"He is a telepathic psychic. When the law enforcers were trying to capture him, he took over the body of the law enforcers in a critical moment and imprisoned his own body in a prison. He then used his identity as a law enforcer to gradually replace officials at all levels, and finally succeeded in taking over the body of the Governor."
"Later, as the Governor, he ordered the release of all imprisoned psychics and, under the guise of a banquet, hosted a feast for all the high-ranking officials of Krobus, catching them all in one fell swoop."
As long as you take over the Governor's body, many things will go smoothly.
All the members present were horrified. If they were the ones possessed, the danger would be even greater than that of the governor!
Speaker: "Senator Dorn, you stated in your report that the psyker attempted to possess you. How did you survive?"
He had no doubt that Dorne had been possessed, otherwise there would be no reason for him to take the initiative to reveal these inside stories, which would only increase the parliament's suspicion of him.
It is unnecessary to use this to increase their trust. If they have no doubts, why should their trust be increased?
He was curious about how Dorn resisted the psykers, which might provide them with valuable experience.
No one is not afraid of this strange psychic.
If they are also possessed by others, their clan will be in danger!
Dorn calmly responded, "I am gifted with a high resistance to psionic energy."
One MP asked, "Can you prove it? It's not that we don't believe you, we just want to broaden our horizons."
