Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 380 Hope, Hope After Despair

Of course, the full return of the Forbidden Army is not only reflected in daily inspections.

In fact, with the elimination of the decree that imprisoned them, these emperor's personal guards who once fought under the flag of the Skyhawk have completely shifted from a state of rest to a state of war.

The guards of the Imperial Guard who had returned to the "Ten Thousand Fus Regiment" had long been dissatisfied with being trapped in the palace.

But just like the sharpening of the sharp sword, the more you pursue perfection, the less impatient you can be.

They need a transformation, a transformation for pure war and killing.

They need time, because once the huge war machine is activated, it will be even more difficult to temporarily adjust the direction.

The lights of the Tower of Hegemony were bright all night, and Trajan and his tribunes and consuls stayed up all night, expending energy on these adjustments.

They finally decided that, in addition to retaining the normal formations for palace guard functions, they continued to maintain small formations of various formations prepared for recruit training.

But after reducing the number of these formations to the minimum value, the main force of the entire Wanfu regiment will be reorganized in the direction of the large combat group.

This is a major military change.

It not only means that these scholars with the most outstanding knowledge and the most skilled craftsmen will completely put down paper, pens and tools, and will take up weapons to stand on the front line of the war again, and defend the overall interests of the human empire under the threat of chaos and aliens;

It also means that this semi-military unit with a history longer than the empire itself has finally officially transformed into a pure paramilitary unit after its establishment 1 years ago.

This is also a difficult conceptual change.

On the basis of continuing to maintain their excellent martial arts, they will temporarily put aside their pride in the past, and in order to adapt to the increasingly cruel environment and the threat of the enemy, they will absorb the joint combat experience of the Astartes in the Legion era.

Under the personalized combat skills of the Imperial Army, the principle of favoring the freedom of soul will not change;

But in order to better fulfill their mission, they will have to prioritize more efficient killing and better self-preservation.

Not only that, the logistics and backup military industry system of the forbidden army hidden deep in the palace has also fully recovered since then.

War means loss, war means sacrifice.

As noble as the Primarch, there will be a day of fall, and the Guards of the Custodians will naturally not be an exception in war.

In order to maintain the appearance of the Wanfu Regiment, which seems to be in full swing and full of flowers, under the continuous consumption of the war, the replenishment of new blood is included in the long-term plan in advance.

Trajan understood this, and so did the tribunes.

Under his and their leadership, the conscription of the imperial army began to change from the ten-year conscription to the shorter three-year conscription.

And the genetic engineering materials prepared for the cultivation of these newborn guards, as well as the expensive metals for casting fine gold armor, were fully unsealed under his order.

Trajan and his war council were working at full strength. There were ten tribunes and high-ranking generals of the imperial army, and only three were left to be responsible for the daily defense of the palace.

On the basis of maintaining the original frontal attack group, the remaining seven people even combined the original flying troops (Emperor's Wings, also known as the Shadowless Army, Flying Guards),

Ground Assault Troops (Emperor's Hammer, or Iron Cavalry, Destroyer Cavalry Guards),

It is fully integrated with the heavy firepower unit (the emperor's wrath, or undead army, death knight guard) to adapt to the construction of the three-dimensional strike system under the all-out war.

The First Battle Group of the Gray Knights was deeply involved in this important military transformation, and they also fulfilled their mission.

Under the command of Alan Janus, the First Battle Group used their unique comprehensive and three-dimensional strike mode with almost no reaction gap to teach these relatives who have been in the deep palace for thousands of years a good lesson .

At the same time, the two huge intelligence networks in the hands of the imperial guards and the trial court are also racing against time to complete the docking.

In the countless worlds within the entire empire, the judges wandering in the starry sky, after being notified by chance, looked at the golden eagle emblem on the data board in their hands and shed tears;

And the mysterious men in black robes who appeared like ghosts at the bottom of the imperial hive city and in the ruins of the barren world, also smiled knowingly after seeing the silver emblem of the Order of the Hammer in the personal terminal on the back of their hands.

This is not the effort of two people, but the unified action of countless people under the same great vision.

Similar scenes centered on Terra are repeated throughout the shadows of the Empire.

As one of the two initiators of this movement, Trajan was naturally obliged to fall into endless work.

And Calvin, who is also another initiator, is still deep in the throne room at this time, using his talent to fight on another level.

hum!
A low-frequency tremor sounded in the air, and a slight shock wave centered on the golden throne and spread to the surrounding space.

After a large amount of static electricity was released in the space in the palace, the air was filled with a special smell of ozone.

Calvin felt that the channel of faith from the emperor was cut off, and he was separated from the spiritual world.

This is already the sixth time he has entered the depths of the Throne Chamber to purify the "Poison of Faith" for this man named Emperor.

During this period, he not only allowed his body to grow considerably under heavy pressure, but also had many profound discussions involving himself and the destiny of mankind with this great warrior who led the destiny of mankind during the interval of "purification".

Calvin admired the Emperor's dedication and persistence, and the latter applauded Calvin's philosophy.

The two have rapidly increased their understanding of each other in just a few weeks, and the former has also strengthened his will and determination under the guidance and encouragement of the latter.

After another purification was completed, Calvin slowly opened his eyes and looked at the decaying body on the golden throne.

The latter's golden human nature from the perspective of spiritual vision has grown significantly, and the original white "divinity" has also become more stable and pure under the purification of the former.

But this is not a good thing, at least in terms of a deeper "concept", it is not a good thing.

The emperor also woke up from the purification just now. After seeing Calvin's rather heavy complexion, he just pulled his fleshy face slightly, and it was a smile:
"you saw it?"

"Yes, I see." Calvin's mood was slightly depressed.

Compared with the human part of the Emperor, the part of his divinity is of an outsider nature.

Calvin's purification of the beliefs that support the growth of this part of "divinity" is to weaken the possibility of its enhancement, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the pressure on the emperor's original humanity.

Did he achieve his goal?To be precise, it has been achieved.

After being purified and absorbed by Calvin, the seemingly colorful but dirty "poison of faith" has indeed disappeared from the emperor's soul.

And the emperor's human nature, which was squeezed and almost disappeared and disintegrated, indeed came out of the space from this part of the blank, and gained a precious respite.

It even showed some signs of recovery, as evidenced by the regrowth of flesh from the Emperor himself.

But he didn't get there either.

Because according to his prediction, when the divinity is cut off, the emperor's humanity should be greatly enhanced.

And under the ebb and flow, the divinity should be gradually dispelled after being taken the initiative by humanity, so that the emperor has a chance to get up again!
But the real result surprised him, he did purify the poison of faith, and also weakened the divinity part of the Emperor's soul.

But that is weakening, not eliminating, let alone eliminating.

On the contrary, the divine part of the emperor's soul became more pure after Calvin's purification, and it was this purity that made "it" more deeply rooted in the emperor's soul!

This is... it has taken root!
Calvin changed his field of vision. Although the form of the Emperor's "Human Sword" in the "concept" is obviously better than before, the blood color spreading on it is also darker.

He suddenly remembered what the man in front of him said when he used his ability for the first time.

"It's too late, there's no point..."

Yeah, it's too late.

Calvin came too late, and this belief has existed for thousands of years since the appearance of the Great Crusade.

It has already taken root in the emperor's soul. Under Luo Jia's seemingly innocent preaching and preaching, and amidst the prayers of thousands of people in the empire, the dangerous seed of "faith" was buried in the emperor's soul with his own hands. On the emperor whom he proclaimed the city to reverence.

And it is precisely these "beliefs" that have transformed into endless hatred after the human empire has experienced thousands of years of blood and fire, completely polluting the emperor's original concept of protection and salvation.

The "hope" that originally belonged to the entire human race towards a more distant future was shattered, and what was replaced was only "revenge" that was enough to drive any race into the abyss...

What should I do?
Do you want to continue?

But if it continues, the Emperor's humanity will certainly be restored to a limited extent, but there is a limit to this restoration!

Compared with this obviously lower and lower return, I am afraid that the "purification" of the divine part is more obvious!

The more purified, the more solidified the divinity; and the more solidified, the more impossible it is to be eliminated.

This is drinking poison to quench thirst...

Is the most precious hope of mankind about to turn into despair before his eyes?
It was rare for Calvin to be at a loss, and the failure after trying his best was so frustrating.

Negative emotions were like a dark cloud, unconsciously covering Calvin's heart.

There must be a way!
He forcibly held back the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, ready to try again.

But the emperor's hand, which had regained some flesh and blood, covered his hand again.

This time, it was an unquestionable rejection.

"That's it, kid. You don't have to come here again."

"No! I can try again!" Calvin stepped forward again.

He ignored the body that was full of wounds due to the heavy pressure, and forcibly prepared to raise his strength to establish communication with the Emperor again.

But the expected link of faith did not respond for a long time, he raised his head dully, and saw the emperor's rare warm eyes.

"It's pointless, don't try again," he said to Calvin again.

"There must be a way!"

Calvin said persistently.But he knew in his heart that it was already the limit to do it with his ability.

However, the Emperor's answer made him hopeful again. After staring at Calvin for a long time, he said an answer that reinvigorated Calvin.

"There is a way, but it will be difficult."

"We are not afraid of hardships! Just seek what we want!" Calvin stood up straight, trying to show his reliable side in front of this senior and spiritual teacher.

"To find what I lost and bring "them" back."

The Emperor did not specify what "they" meant, but Calvin clearly understood the Emperor's intentions.

That's right, if "they" are retrieved and the human sword is completed again, does that mean that the emperor's humanity will return to its peak again?

And if the emperor's humanity returns to its peak, does that mean that the powerful "personality" of the emperor can actively expel or even digest those later "godheads"?
Calvin felt great excitement the moment he understood this sentence, and he could almost immediately imagine that with his help, the Emperor regained the power of the complete "concept".

Thus, with the backing of the boundless faith of the people of the empire, the ghosts and ghosts in the webway were wiped out at once, and the scene of standing up again from the golden throne again!
That is the true Lord of Humanity!That is the true light of humanity!
But in the next second, he started to struggle again, because it was the understanding of "concepts" that made him understand the nature of "they" that are both strong and fragile.

"They" are so strong:
Because if you can't make your soul relate to the divinity layer, so that you can have the authority to interfere with the concept, then you can't perceive and touch the existence hidden in certain things at all.

But "they" are so fragile, because if it is not the original part of "they", if other arbitrary concepts are in contact with it, it can only give birth to a new "authority" after the combination of the two concepts.

Or worse, the two concepts are fundamentally opposed, so that after a struggle that cannot be compromised, the stronger side will swallow the latter...

But no matter what, this is not a prerequisite for Calvin to bring "them" back as they are!
Calvin felt greatly confused and couldn't help but look at the golden throne.

And as if sensing Calvin's confusion, the man pointed to himself and said:
"look……"

What are you looking at?Calvin subconsciously changed his vision.

He followed the direction of the emperor's finger, and it happened to be the tsuba part of the "sword" - on the wings made of endless brilliance, there was a tiny and brand new broken mark.

And it was at the moment when he saw this "broken feather" that Calvin understood its meaning without a teacher.

He turned the same vision to his own soul, and in the deepest part of his soul that represented his origin, a broken "light" floated quietly.

"Go find 'them', you, that's me.

And only you can get "them" back..."
