Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 247 Experiment
"When will the Primarch Guard arrive on the White Knight?"

"They are already here, Guide. The anti-gravity vehicle they are riding in has just docked inside the White Knight."

"Very good, we'll start the action once they arrive."

"..."

Qin Xia stood on the command deck, facing a tactical table that showed the terrain of a certain area of ​​the planet and taking in the overall situation.

All the bigwigs on the White Knight were on the deck at this time, gathered around the tactical table, ready to carry out any orders from the Lord of the White Knight.

In addition to the original personnel on the White Knight, there were also some officers present. They were not part of the original officers of the 12th Legion, but new officers who were promoted because of their outstanding performance during the recruit training phase.

These so-called officers are no different from recruits in every other respect except that they perform extremely well in training. Therefore, they cannot take up high-level positions, such as company commander. They are just captains of some combat teams.

As for why some of the recruits are made officers...

This was Angron's decision.

Qin Xia had never asked about this, but he felt that Angron's decision was largely due to the source of the new recruits - teams that performed well in the global duel trials.

The champion team, the runner-up team, and so on.

Those who become captain-level officers immediately after completing the recruit training will be the captains of the participating gladiator teams.

Although the gladiatorial contests on Nuceria were no longer cruel before the uprising war was completely over, the reason they were not cruel was simply because they were backed by advanced biotechnology and medical technology, so the contestants would not be disabled or die. It did not mean that the gladiator teams did not need to give their all in the battle.

All those who can be sent to the 12th Legion after participating in the competition must be the most powerful warriors on the planet Nukeria, and these warriors must have deep friendships with each other, otherwise they will not be able to win in team combat.

So even if those new officers have no experience in commanding Space Marines, they can still perform their duties perfectly when the combat intensity is not high.

"The Primarch Guards are composed of gladiators who revolted among the Devourers." Qin Xia turned and looked at the captain-level officers, "The First Rebels. In the history teaching on Nuceria, these brothers and sisters who fought side by side with the Primarch and I were called the First Rebels, but they are called the Primarch Guards, the Blood Drinkers in the Twelve Legions."

All captain-level officers were silent, but their eyes responded to every word Qin Xia said.

"So you must follow them closely and never allow your teams to slack off. This is the first actual combat training, and I don't want any of you to die in this training." Qin Xia said.

The captains placed their hands on their chests and responded to the Lord's instructions in silence using the etiquette of the Twelfth Legion.

Then Qin Xia looked at the others and gave instructions to each of them one by one. However, the instructions were just what a commander would say to his subordinates before a war and were not particularly important.

At this time, the think tanks entered the command deck.

Qin Xia immediately cast his gaze over there, and frowned when he saw that the think tanks had already put on their armor: "Take off all your equipment."

The think tanks had their doubts but still did as they were told.

Avida entered the command deck at this time and saw the people present, as well as Qin Xia who was making final deployments for a military operation.

Avida was about to step forward to persuade Qin Xia to stop the military operation, but the call he just blurted out was replaced by the roar of a large machine running.

A huge servitor entered the command deck.

This is a robot servant specially used to transport heavy objects, so there is a huge container embedded on its back.

Avida discovered that the things in the container behind the robot were the same as what he had just seen, which meant that the robot was transporting the things.

"Put on the armor in the container." Qin Xia ordered, "Except for Varis and Kamas."

So the Librarians used their psychic powers to replace their armor.

Avida noticed that these think tanks even used psychic power to change their armor, so it was no wonder that when they were about to put on ordinary equipment just now, they changed their equipment and ran out in the blink of an eye.

After watching the think tanks change their clothes with one click, Avida looked at the armor on those think tanks.

The two think tanks named Varis and Kamas were still wearing the same armor they wore when they entered the command deck, that is, the gorgeous bright silver Terminator tactical dreadnought armor.

Avida felt that the style of this armor was a bit like the knight armor of Terra's ancient times, with a simple and ancient style.

He had not read the memories of the two Grey Knights just now, so he did not know that one of the Grey Knights gave his armor to Varis, and because Qin Xia already had his own armor, the Grey Knight armor was also given to a think tank by the Grey Knight amidst crazy shouting.

Varis and Kamath were dressed just like the Grey Knights, even holding the Grey Knights' halberds.

The armor on the other Librarians, the ones they changed into, looked completely different from the armor on the Lord of the White Knights and his other two Librarian brothers.

It was a silver armor.

Although he didn't know the detailed information, Avida could tell that it was also a Terminator Tactical Dreadnought - judging from the thick armor plates all over the armor and the heavy helmet that could only move 30 degrees.

After an ordinary Space Marine Librarian of normal height puts on this armor, his height can reach nearly three meters, and the tallest is two meters and eighty.

On the right shoulder of the armor is a cannon-like weapon that appears to have no ammunition supply device.

From this observation, Avida could conclude that the person who designed this armor must be a novice in manufacturing.

It completely disregards any advantages other than defense, flexibility, applicability, and the most basic question: how can the wearer observe the surroundings after putting on this armor?
Install a small radar?
Avida couldn't see any place to accommodate the radar in this suit of armor, and he couldn't even see where its power supply device was, which meant that this suit of armor might only be able to maintain the most basic mobility and couldn't carry too many devices, otherwise it would be paralyzed due to lack of energy before it could even get to the battlefield.

"You will be wondering where this armor came from," Qin Xia said, "It is my creation. I designed it in less than two days. It is essentially a derivative product of the most critical research I conducted. So no matter how you look at this armor... this will not be the final version. It will be improved in the future."

When Avida heard this, he thought Qin Xia was crazy.

A person who was not good at making armor and weapons spent two days designing such a set of armor, and then produced a prototype and put it into actual combat without any testing.

But the think tanks and Avida had different reactions, they nodded.

Seeing the reactions of the think tanks, Arvida exclaimed in his heart that this was indeed the 12th Legion, whose internal atmosphere was so depressing that these soldiers actually obeyed such a ridiculous thing and order and what to do next. Arvida felt that only the 4th Legion could be compared with the 12th Legion, but at least the 4th Legion only had to serve Perturabo, while the 12th Legion had to serve the Primarch's relatives.

"This is crazy." Avida walked straight towards Qin Xia and tried to dissuade him.

Qin Xia looked at Avida who was coming towards him and picked up the communicator and put it to his ear.

"We are also ready for observation." Olina's voice came from the communicator.

At this moment, in a cabin on the ship specially used for observing the next battle, Qin Xia's close friends and comrades-in-arms, each with their own characteristics, gathered together, responsible for different tasks in front of various observation equipment.

"Let's not talk about this military operation, let's just talk about the armor those think tanks are wearing..."

Before Avida could finish his words, Qin Xia silently pushed Avida's shoulder away and walked out of the command deck.

All who will follow him to a planet occupied by dangerous psionic greenskins.

Avida looked at Qin Xia's back, feeling helpless.

"The biggest shortcoming of a person is to ignore advice and insist on doing what he wants! He won't regret it until he is on the verge of death!"

Avida spoke loudly to Qin Xia's back.

Qin Xia just turned around and looked at Avida with a complicated expression.

Seeing that the other party was unmoved, Avida quickly followed.

……

All participants went to a gathering platform on the White Knight that was specifically used for psychic teleportation.

The new recruits who had just undergone transformation surgery gathered here, lined up in neat rows, and silently checked the weapons in their hands.

Avida noticed that the weapons in the hands of these recruits were different from those in the hands of normal Space Marines. Although they were also weapons similar to grenade launchers, they did not have magazines, and a scarlet crystal was connected to the bottom of the cavity.

Avida recalled that he had also seen this kind of crystal on the heavy armor of those think tanks, but it was not exposed on the surface, but embedded inside the armor.

This kind of crystal can also be seen on some other equipment. Some recruits wear things similar to amulets, and the main component of the amulets is the red crystal.

In addition to the Space Marine recruits, there were also some mortals present.

Those mortals also looked like warriors, but they were different from regular warriors. Their clothes were not uniform, which showed that they were not from the Nuceria Mortal Army, but from other organizations.

Nuceria professional anti-psychic organization.

Avida thought of this latecomer, and he still remembered the day he entered this galaxy and saw the ships from Nuceria, and the ships carrying a large number of untouchables that disgusted him.

"I need to know whether your people can affect the weapons I am testing." Qin Xia walked in front and talked to a man in a suit who took the initiative to walk towards him.

"Please rest assured, these Soulless have been carefully selected, and their talents are just right." The man smiled and said, "In the beginning, we used psychic weapons to deal with those psychics who interfered with the normal operation of the stock market, and this continued for a long time afterwards, so we will specifically select those Soulless who will not cause our weapons to become garbage."

"Why?" Avida took a few quick steps and asked the man, "Why don't you just use a force composed entirely of soulless people? Wouldn't it be better to target the psykers this way?"

Hearing this question, the man smiled and said, "There are countless soulless people in this universe. Besides, we old soul hunters have worked hard for so many years and dealt with so many psychics... If all of us are replaced by soulless people, how can we survive when we can't do anything except deal with psychics?"

Avida looked around.

The number of Soulless Ones is indeed small, but the reason why Avida asked why not use all Soulless Ones is because he felt that ordinary people were redundant in the war against psychics.

Compared with the soulless people, no matter how many ordinary people there are, it is useless. No matter how few soulless people there are, they are still the main force.

"Remember, this is just a test before a real war. Both the weapons in your hands and our upcoming battles are part of the test." Qin Xia instructed, "So don't fight with a desperate mentality, just show your most normal performance."

If it was an ordinary army or ordinary soldiers, Qin Xia would never give these instructions.

But since the man in front of him was a Nucerian, this instruction was very necessary.

"For the Lord of Savior." The man stood at attention and saluted.

Seeing this, Qin Xia asked, "Were you a soldier? Your etiquette is the military salute."

"I have never had the honor of fighting for you, Lord God," the man replied. "My father and mother were lucky enough to do so. As the son of two City Devourers, I am lucky to be able to fight for you like my father did."

Hearing this, Qin Xia smiled and nodded, patting the man on the shoulder: "Then you should be more careful. Call me immediately if you encounter any danger. I can hear you no matter what method you use."

The man saluted again.

Qin Xia walked towards the members of the Primarch's guards again, but in his eyes and in Angron's eyes, these guard members were not just legion soldiers, they were people who could be called family.

However, facing these family members, Qin Xia said nothing, but just nodded to the gladiators.

The gladiators nodded as well.

Yochula smiled calmly, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and patted his waist. On his waist hung the new weapon Qin Xia gave him, a long sword that could use spiritual energy to enhance the weapon's effect.

They had the same tacit understanding as always. They could realize what the other wanted to say just by a few glances. In this situation, any instructions would seem like nonsense, so Qin Xia did not say anything.

All those who were fit to fight were now present, and those who could not play a definite part in the ensuing battle were absent.

Qin Xia turned and looked at Avida.

This man from the Fifteenth Legion also had a role to play in the war.
