How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 411 Amit joins the team, Amit joins the team

After basically explaining the arrangements for the Glorious Composite Grand Temple, Fujimaru Ritsuka cut off the communication and moved on to another target without stopping.

This was a communication with no real significance. Her original plan was to hang up if no one answered within five seconds and directly proceed to the next step of preparation for entering the temple. But unfortunately, the next second after the magic built into the communication station ended, the other party quickly built a channel, as if they were afraid that Fujimaru Ritsuka would regret it and hang up.

Then, before the person who initiated the communication opened his mouth, a rather unbridled laughter was heard from the other end of the communication. This almost made Fujimaru Ritsuka smash the table: "Conrad! Did you 'see' everything that has happened so far, and that's why you sent me back to Macragge!"

"Hey, my little warden, this is an 'imaginary' false accusation that you shouldn't have made." Conrad Coates, who was many light years away, pointed out, "First of all, theoretically speaking, you can also see the visions that I can see, but you insisted on choosing to be a mortal, and threw all the benefits and harms brought to you by this matter into the bottom of your consciousness; secondly, you should have known that after falling into this universe, you yourself are the biggest interference with 'fate', no matter which interpretation you choose for this 'fate'. The reason why things have developed to this point is definitely not high. I just reminded you of one sentence. It was you who chose to carry it out, so you had to encounter this series of 'accidents'."

"I'm not asking you why you dragged me into this mess." Fujimaru Ritsuka was so angry that he actually slammed the table, and he was sure that the sound and vibration caused by this action were also transmitted to the other end of the communication. "I'm asking you if you had anticipated that Macragge would be overrun by Perturabo's army!"

"Strictly speaking, it's not just him." Curze answered the question irrelevantly, "But since you, the interference item, are so close, I'm not sure who his allies are. In the eighty-six different developments that I randomly selected to observe, Perturabo sometimes had angry Butcher's Nails around him, sometimes he threw some grotesque Slaanesh warbands at Macragge, and sometimes it was a disgusting mechanical shadow supporting his expedition from behind - by the way, this possibility is the most ridiculous in my opinion. Judging from the information circulating in your quantum communicator, this thing should be in the distance and loving Belisarius Cawl and my dear brother."

"Vashtor." Fujimaru Ritsuka thought for a moment, "It's not impossible. I heard that He likes to sign... uh... labor contracts with others, and rarely breaks them."

This made Curze on the other side of the communication laugh again, but Fujimaru Ritsuka ignored this irritating emotional expression - she knew that even if the primarch was laughing, it didn't mean they didn't notice what the person opposite them was saying.

"By the way, it's the forces of Tzeentch that are slamming into my face right now." She tapped the table lightly before speaking to attract the other party's attention. "Do you see this possibility in your eighty or so different prophecies?"

"Yes, but I only see two possibilities. One is related to Magnus, and the other is related to the unknown Lord of Change. Moreover, the specific process of the story development is very vague." Koz stopped talking here, but his expression and body language obviously had more to say - in short, the responsibility for his unclear vision lies with Fujimaru Ritsuka.

The latter couldn't help but point at Curze's phantom and refute it: "'Imaginary false accusations'. But anyway, I don't really want to rely on your predictions to make my decisions."

"You are at the scene, so you have the final say." Coze pretended to be magnanimous with a cynical attitude. "After all, I have learned that prophecy is indeed unreliable after I made the wrong prediction about the landing point of a stone that didn't adapt and the beautiful phoenix that turned into an ugly chicken in the fire when it returned to reality. Speaking of which, what about those two people? Let me meet them?"

As he said this, he kept moving back and forth in the image, as if he could use this movement to allow his vision to bypass the obstruction of Fujimaru Ritsuka and see behind her.

Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't figure out whether he really believed what he said at the beginning, or if he just said it to create an atmosphere. On the one hand, she didn't have time to have a long talk with him, and on the other hand, she was separated from him by light years, so even if she wanted to intervene, she was powerless, so she simply skipped this section and ended the battle directly based on Curze's last sentence:
"Don't poke your head around there. If you really want to see them, pack up quickly and talk to Mr. Corvos about dispatching troops back to Macragge for support." Before turning off the communication, she couldn't help but use the popular hell thinking of Nostramo to stab the other party, "If the situation of this battle is not good, maybe all you will see next time is their corpses."

"Oh, you won't allow—"

Before Koz finished speaking, Fujimaru Ritsuka had already turned off the communicator with a "click" and then let out a long sigh in the summoning room.

Pegasus, who had been following behind Fujimaru Ritsuka and watching the entire conversation, crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow. After the conversation ended, he commented: "Has he always had this attitude? This is completely different from what Fulgrim remembered."

"He hasn't always been like this. I can't really say whether his condition has improved or worsened..." Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head. "Let's not talk about that. We still have other preparations to make before leaving the ship."

Then, she took her two tails, Pegasus and Akultona, to the lounge where the statue of the Emperor was placed. While the other two were appreciating the artwork of Conrad Curze, she used the psychic energy stored in it to prop up a protective shield for the Storm's Edge. For the Emperor, he really only stored "a little" psychic energy in it, but according to Fujimaru Ritsuka's estimation, if nothing particularly devastating happened, this protective shield should be able to easily maintain full power for about a week next to the Storm's Edge.

By the way, the psychic energy she used when she made an emergency landing on the Storm's Edge also came from this statuette. The above calculation method also includes the loss of the Emperor's psychic energy that Fujimaru Ritsuka needs to draw from it when he is on the front line. The person who made the inference believes that this is more than enough, but Akuldona disagrees with this:

"Is a standard Terran week enough?" As we all know, the Empire fought many bad battles during the Great Crusade. It was reasonable for Akuldona to have this question, but Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was very proficient in special decapitation strikes no matter where he was, obviously disagreed.

"It's a small-scale surprise attack, and there's no need for disguise or infiltration. Either we find the target and behead it, or we find that it's impossible and run away. If it's not over in a week, there must be something fishy going on in the subspace." Fujimaru Ritsuka said confidently, "Next, we need to solve the problem of how to 'find the target'..."

She walked towards the lounge door, but when the sensor door slid open, she suddenly found her feet off the ground: Akurdona quickly grabbed the small protrusion at the back of Ortenaus's neck, lifted her up by that spot, and put her behind him. The reason for his strange behavior was that he was standing at the door of the lounge.

A Terminator power armor, wrapped in a gloomy-faced Amit, was prying at the mechanical door that had just slid open in front of him like a little monster, and looking inside.

He did not do anything extreme. After all, Pegasus and Akultona were obviously closer to Fujimaru Ritsuka. Even if he took each of them out individually, he could not beat any of them - what's more, his two legs had just been reconnected.

Although according to Amit's standards, if a person has any limb defects after death, it is easier to repair than when the person is alive; Asclepius is also a very dedicated and sometimes unnecessary ship doctor. He believes that he can certainly join the battle immediately, but his legs that have just been connected do have a slight hindrance in movement, which will not affect much, but...

Before anyone could say anything, Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke very skillfully in this low pressure atmosphere:

"I'm glad to see you back on the front line, Amit. I know you are against my initiative to throw myself into danger, and you are determined to complete the task assigned to you by your genetic father, but please reconsider the current situation after the change: we have now fallen into the Glorious Composite Grand Temple, and the Stormbounder cannot move autonomously for the time being. If you want to leave the enemy camp, the best way is to take the initiative in your own hands and attack first before the enemy reacts. From this perspective, if you continue to insist on 'breaking my legs', it will only produce negative benefits to the current situation." All of the above is based on the analysis of realistic logic, which is reasonable and difficult to refute. Even if Amit, who was angry, wanted to raise objections regardless of the consequences, he had no way to start. Besides, now even Fujimaru Ritsuka has clearly realized that he is here. Combined with some fresh experience, Amit knows that he can't beat any of the three people in this lounge.

All of the above, without a doubt, made him even angrier.

Feeling this anger, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but shrink back behind Akurdona. Although she felt that she was not wrong, in the current situation, the most important thing was to maintain stability rather than argue with the other party. Therefore, Fujimaru Ritsuka still pretended that she felt that she had done something wrong, and made herself sound a little guilty from behind Akurdona: "Uh... I was indeed impulsive, I'm sorry...?"

If Amit is a volcano, he is already on the verge of eruption. But the amazing thing is that he actually controlled himself on the verge of eruption.

"I understand, and I will also participate in the next battle." He squeezed out these words from between his teeth, "but don't think that this matter will be over!"

Knowing full well that the other party was just making some threatening remarks, Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded randomly and came out from behind Akurdona again: "Okay, from now on, you are 'Nasir'."

"What are you going to do?" Nasir Amit was annoyed by this request, which was theoretically fine but actually unnecessary and probably contained some other emotional connotations. "It's meaningless even if you change your name to a more intimate one. I thought you knew that I don't care about these trivial matters."

"It is precisely because I know you don't care about these 'details' that I proposed to temporarily modify this." After judging that the alarm had been lifted, Fujimaru Ritsuka walked towards the door of the lounge very actively and squeezed out from the gap next to the Flesh Tearer. "You should know, Nasir, you are not the first 'Amit' in Chaldea. Please follow the first come first served."

The Space Marine, who had quickly become "Nasir", was already angry, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He turned half a circle in this mood, and faced Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was walking in the corridor without stopping, and said angrily: "What do you mean by first come first served?"

"You don't think there's no allusion to the surname 'Amit', do you? Time is limited, and I don't want to trace it back from the naming method of the mainstream culture of the empire." Fujimaru Ritsuka ran six or seven meters in advance before turning back and speaking with the intention of deliberately irritating others, "Even if Horus Lupercal is in Chaldea, he has to follow the first come first served principle! The two parts of his name have to be counted separately!"

Nasir's head buzzed, and before he could react, his legs had already started chasing. Unfortunately, before she opened her mouth, Fujimaru Ritsuka had already anticipated the current situation. Before she finished speaking, she turned around, and the acceleration nozzle under Ortnaus's feet was directly activated, leaving the bulky Indomitable Terminator armor behind. The advantage of lightweight armor has been fully demonstrated in this narrow corridor. Even if Nasir could tear Fujimaru Ritsuka and Ortnaus apart without hesitation at a close enough distance, not being able to reach them led to another result.

The mad angel son ran along the winding route of Fujimaru Ritsuka for four or five minutes before he could calm down. Pegasus wanted to stop him, but Akurdona, who had observed the situation, felt that it was unnecessary, so the two followed behind with a nervous mood as if they were watching a thrilling plot in a drama, until they all stopped in front of a "ceremonial storage room" - the sign next to it said so. In fact, there were too many "ceremonial storage rooms" on the Storm Boundary, and none of the three people at the door knew what was specifically stored in the room.

Fujimaru Ritsuka arrived faster because of her speed advantage. When Nasir stood in front of the door, she had already swiped her identity card and got behind the closed door. Nasir, who had calmed down a little, was still angry and slammed the door twice to vent his anger. Then he remembered that according to the rules of Chaldea, he was the one responsible for repairing the door after it was broken, so he stopped indignantly and shouted at the door: "Are you really not afraid that I will lose control and crush you?!"

"Why aren't you afraid? That's why I gave you some precautions in advance." Fujimaru Ritsuka's voice came out from behind the door. "I'm serious about the fact that 'Horus also has to follow the first come first served' rule! His name comes from the sky god of ancient Egypt. This god has a very important position in the country of Ozymandias, so many places in the Grand Temple of Glory are decorated with the 'Eye of Horus' - not the one for the later Primarch Horus! I don't want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings in the subsequent tactical command process because of the use of these runes on the building to mark the location!"

"Then you don't have to—"

"--If you get so angry that you lose your mind just by hearing his name, now that I've discovered this, I still have a chance to expel you from the exploration team as an unstable factor!" Fujimaru Ritsuka argued loudly behind the door, "Don't blame me for being ruthless, you were the one who became unstable first!"

Nasir slammed the door again, making a loud noise. The metal plate on the door was finally dented. But he did not react any more. After that, there was silence for about 20 seconds, until Fujimaru Ritsuka's lowered voice became muffled under the cover of the door: "Are you calm? Can I go out now?"

Nasir took a few deep breaths. He was still furious, but he managed to control his emotions. "I'm calm. Come out now."

"Okay, then everyone prepare yourself to meet Amit in the Chaldean records."

The door of the ceremonial storage room slid open, but because of Nasir's recent damage, it only slid halfway open. The gap between the doors was a bit tight, but it was not a problem for the three little creatures who first strode out of the door.

Even though the three people at the door were well-informed and had seen countless strange creatures in their direct or indirect experience of conquering the galaxy, they could not immediately define what these three four-legged creatures with manes on their heads, which seemed to have projected the universe onto their fur, were. They looked down at these little creatures as they stepped into the corridor, and without any fear, they went straight to their feet and made a sniffing and exploring action - but on the throne, do they really have sensory organs on their faces?
"Uh." Akurdona looked down, then up again, and decided to make a slightly sharp sound on this issue. "So actually, 'Amit' is this kind of... cute little thing?"

"No, that's a juvenile Cosmic Sphinx." Ritsuka Fujimaru, who was dealing with a metal plate that couldn't be fully opened at the door, said, "I brought them out to lead the way in the temple, and then the three of you can each take one. By the way, you think it's a 'cute little thing' now, only because you haven't fought its adult form yet... Forget it, just tear down the door."

After Fujimaru Ritsuka changed his guiding ideology, the problem of the door not being able to open completely was instantly solved. The girl dragged the metal plate away with a little effort, leaned against the wall of the room, and said again from that position: "Come and meet Amit."

Everyone followed suit and raised their heads again, preparing to cast their gazes towards the inside of the gate. But before they could complete this action, a feeling that would make any living person feel strongly uncomfortable first attacked them -

The thing that was activated in the room and slowly walked out of the darkness was definitely not a "living thing." This was everyone's first impression of the "Amit" in mythology, which was responsible for devouring the hearts of sinners.
