Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 640 The Moment of Decision
The technological singularity that integrates chaos affects everything around it, with Kelbo as its center.

Except for the weapons and equipment of the imperial guards, all electronic equipment began to mutate.

Screams and roars from hell came over the ship's radio.

Various intelligent electronic devices on the command deck emitted binary wails.

Even the walls began to change.

Gears and mechanical structures suddenly appeared on the wall, and their mechanical structures condensed into distorted faces, as if the wall was screaming.

Quadrant was as unaffected as the Custodes, but it was not because he was protected by some mysterious power or ritual, but because he did not have even a single electronic device on him.

The difference between this synthetic body and the modified body is like the difference between the stone man and the iron man. To some extent, it is a synthetic life.

The power to shape life, which belongs exclusively to the Creator, has been snatched away by technology, and the resulting life forms are even more powerful.

Kelbo stopped ten meters away from the quadrant and opened his pocket universe.

This space artifact from ancient times was not created by the Eldar. Ancient humans also mastered the technology to create pocket universes, and this ancient relic fell into Kelbor's hands over the long river of time.

The pocket universe unfolded, and Kelbo's mecha troops marched out from the dark universe.

This type of intelligent robot far surpasses any existing robot creation of the Mechanicum. Not only do they integrate more advanced technology, they also have the most taboo element - abominable intelligence.

However, these mechas, which were the crystallization of Kelber's life's wisdom, did not seem to have any of Kelber's style.

It's more like a product of some twisted flesh and steel fused together.

The so-called hateful intelligence is nothing more than the self-consciousness of demons or animals.

"Mentor, it seems that Chaos has distorted your masterpiece." said Quadrant.

“Distortion? No, this is sublimation. They and I are closer to the God of All Machines.” Kelbo said, “Now I am the most beloved believer of the God of All Machines!”

The power of chaos can distort a person's will and drive him crazy and corrupt.

Kelbo was also obviously distorted. He clearly said that the God of All Things were all lies, but now he claimed that he was God's most beloved believer.

Thousands of mechas were deployed to the command deck.

They are like ghosts. They are marching in formation one second and suddenly float around the quadrant the next.

Cole got nervous at this point and wanted to rush over with the shield guards to rescue the quadrant.

But the quadrant just stood there, motionless.

One body after another split from his body and ran in all directions, towards those Chaos Mechas.

These split bodies are not only more powerful and agile than the mechas, but also more numerous.

Even after the split bodies had started fighting with the mechas and gained the upper hand, the Quadrant continued to produce split bodies.

"This is not the law of conservation of matter." Cole pondered.

The Quadrant uses Warp Technology, a technology that can extract energy from the Warp and convert it into real matter.

The real universe was in a chaotic state before the Big Bang, and its constituent material was ether.

The basic substance in the warp is also ether.

The two can naturally transform into each other. As long as you are careful to avoid the power of chaos, it is not difficult to transform subspace matter into real universe matter.

The material used for the constantly splitting shell of the quadrant was created using this technology.

"My good apprentice, my most talented apprentice, you really don't let me down." A proud smile appeared on Kelbo's face.

At this moment, in Kelbo's cognition, he was in the past.

That was the first time that the intelligent robot invented by Quadrant defeated the test robot. Even though it defeated a robot that was specially used for actual combat testing, Quadrant was young at that time, so this was still enough to make Kelbo happy.

In Kelbo's eyes, the Chaos Mechas lying on the ground at this time were all test mechas.

"A great teacher and a great student."

All the split bodies gradually returned to the quadrant and became one.

The matter created out of thin air by subspace technology made the Quadrant's synthetic body weigh dozens of times more, causing the metal floor to creak under its pressure.

"Where do you want to escape to?" Kelbo suddenly said something incomprehensible.

In his perception, time went back to the day when Quadrant escaped from living transformation.

In a sewer on Mars, the quadrant that escaped from the laboratory before undergoing transformation was blocked by Kelbo himself.

Kelbo raised his hand and the apprentices were teleported out.

But what was teleported out in reality this time was not an apprentice, but a satellite.

Warp rifts suddenly formed in the solar system.

The satellite, which appears as a fuzzy shadow, flickers on and off near Mars.

That was a giant war weapon made by Kelbor in the warp. Although it was called a manufacture, it was actually transformed from ancient relics.

Empowered by subspace technology, this war machine quietly emerged from its habitat into reality, and the flickering shadowy object was just a corner of it.

But at this point, the satellite is already capable of destroying the world.

"Did he take you away?" Kelbo looked to the left.

There was nothing there but the porthole.

Mars is just outside the porthole.

But in Kelbo's own understanding, he was looking at the boy next to the Quadrant, who ran out of the laboratory with the Quadrant - he was the handyman in Kelbo's laboratory.

Kelber snapped his fingers.

In subjective cognition, the intelligent robot did not fire at the quadrant, but directly fired at the boy who was running away with the quadrant.

In the light condensed from the weapons in the hands of the intelligent robot soldiers.

In the light accumulated in the one-eyed hole on the satellite's surface.

Kelbo said coldly: "I know you have a lot of humanity... Then, if you disobey me next time, I will not punish you, but punish someone else... Then you will really not dare to disobey me."

"Do you think I should let you do whatever you want to me like I did back then, and just sit there and watch the people I cherish being deprived of their lives?" Quadrant raised his hand to his chest.

The synthetic material gradually broke apart and the chest unfolded.

Cole, who was standing by, saw the organs and internal organs in Quadrant's chest, which were protected by a layer of energy.

Cole was shocked to realize that Quadrant's body was not a shell that could be used back and forth to change consciousness, but a reconstructed body that housed Quadrant's only remaining organs.

This means that if a quadrant dies here, it will really die, rather than having its consciousness reborn.

From his chest, Quadrant took out a glowing sphere.

After the chest cavity closed, the sphere floated up and disappeared in front of everyone. At this time, near the satellite that was accumulating energy to destroy Mars, that is, outside its structure in the subspace, the light ball flashed and released energy.

In the solar system, the corner of the satellite that probed into the curtain suddenly disappeared, and its main body in the subspace also suddenly disappeared.

"A weapon similar to the principle of a psychic bomb." The Quadrant said, "He has wiped out your creation forever, along with its material existence and its corresponding structure in the Warp."

"Very good." Kelbo suddenly looked at Cole, "He is my apprentice. His name is Quadrant. The reason for this name is that he once made a name for himself in the forge in the third quadrant of Mars."

Or is it in Kelbo’s subjective cognition, or a certain period of time in the past.

Kelber introduces the quadrant to his close friend Melgate.

Melgate was surprised at the rich expression on Kelber's face and the emotions contained in his words.

"My dear boy," Melgate crouched down and looked at the quadrant, "my dear friend has given you all the remaining humanity he has left. You must not let him down."

Cole looked at Kelber, then at the quadrant.

The Quadrant was concentrating on preparing for the mentor's next move.

At this moment, Qin Xia suddenly teleported out from behind Cole.

"I went to read Melgate's mind." Qin Xia whispered to Cole, "Kelber deceived everyone except himself and his apprentice. He was planning to overturn the table today, but he told Melgate to take his time."

Cole nodded.

No matter what Kelbo said to others, it wouldn't affect anything.

The key point is that in the judgment of others, Kelbo did not have more cards. If he really wanted to do something instead of being unable to do anything, and was eventually labeled a traitor and executed in the Temple of All Machines, then he would not turn the table.

result……

Quadrant noticed Qin Xia.

Qin Xia responded with a "cautious" look.

He will not interfere in this real battle between master and disciple, but will stay by the side as a last resort in case of emergency.

"I will personally transform you."

In his subjective cognition, Kelbo has already brought the quadrant back to the laboratory. He no longer entrusts anyone to carry out the transformation and is ready to skip all work today and do it himself.

In reality, many mechanical structures suddenly extended from Kelbo's body under the red robe.

A chip in his head was taking effect, and the combat experience and skills of all the powerful warriors in history were copied and iterated for many years and retained in that chip.

Kelbo lowered his body, extending two phase swords from his arms, and the heavy weapons connected to the exposed mechanical structures were aimed at the quadrant.

The quadrant's arms condensed into sharp blades.

When Kelbo opened fire, the most brutal fight between master and apprentice began.

Quadrant dodged the flying plasma and explosive bombs as well as various attacks whose technical principles were unknown, and relied on his reaction and agility to shuttle through the hail of bullets to approach his mentor.

Quadrant also has a combat chip in his mind, but the data in it does not come from a certain Space Marine or Primarch, but from Brown.

Stoneman Brown is the best at fighting with his stone body.

In the White Knight's laboratory, the personality of Stoneman Brown was copied and sent into an iterative device, in which countless Browns fought for countless years, and the results were stored in the chip of the quadrant.

In the blink of an eye, the quadrant was in front of Kelbo.

The latter swung out the phase sword. Relying on the ability of the mechanical body and the supernatural influence brought by the chaotic power at that time, Kelbo's sword-swinging action changed thousands of times in the middle due to the adjustment of quadrant position or posture.

Before making a move, both sides have calculated the other side's possible actions thousands of times, and use the method with the highest chance of success to attack each other.

This series of complicated calculations, the advantages brought by the transformation... in short, everything is integrated into one move.

The phase sword cannot be blocked and can only be dodged, but it is difficult to avoid because the mechanical arm is too dexterous.

The final quadrant was split open by a sword.

The body split into two halves gradually fell to the ground.

At this moment, Kelbohar saw the blood splattering out of the apprentice's body, and he was in a trance and returned to the moment when he was holding the quadrant's heart in a daze after the transformation operation.

At this time, the sharp blade pierced through the energy source in Kelbo's chest from back to front.

A bit of black stone material integrated into the sharp blade arm is releasing its influence.

The quadrant appeared behind him, and at some point...

"Dimension crossing technology..." Qin Xia saw the clue.

Just now, the quadrant separated its main body silently, and the main body turned into the smallest substance that Kelbor could not detect and escaped into another dimension, and then emerged from the dimension and came behind Kelbor.

At the end of the Randan Campaign, Quadrant said that it wanted to study assassin aliens that could cross dimensions, and also create dimension-crossing technology for humans.

Qin Xia said that was impossible, because even the assassin alien could not be reverse engineered, and that alien achieved dimensional leap by virtue of its innate racial talent. ;
Yet the Quadrant did it, even to the point of being able to send the tiniest of matter into another dimension and then reassemble it.

At this moment, Qin Xia only felt that Quadrant was from the Mechanicus after all... He was like a hamster, piling all kinds of good things onto himself, and only took them out to use at the critical moment.

"My apprentice, you actually..."

Kelbo's head turned 180 degrees, and his body, which had lost all energy, gradually fell to his knees.

"Teacher, thank you for your training." Quadrant said, "Although I know that you trained me and praised me only because you felt that I could serve your purpose and even inherit your ideals and legacy in the future...but you did train me."

Once upon a time, Quadrant didn't understand why the mentor couldn't get along with his own biological body.

But after learning that the mentor was against the Emperor and the Empire, he realized that the mentor felt that he was becoming less and less like him, and this unlikeness made him feel a sense of deviation.

Replacing the biological body with a mechanical body like Kelbor's is essentially a means of eliminating the sense of deviation.

"Quadrant."

Kelber no longer called Quadrant an apprentice.

"Do what you want to do..."

As one is about to die, the influence of chaos gradually dissipates.

Then, as if a dying man's words were kind, Kelber did not say anything bad to the target.

"But... the things I have done... I will never... never think that I am wrong..."

The only thing in his words is no regrets.

Kelbo suddenly raised his head and pointed his right hand upwards: "Don't... don't let me fall into their hands..."

Quadrant looked up at the top of his head, realized something, reached into his chest, took out a dagger made of black stone, and then pierced Kelbor's head.

"Goodbye, Kelborhar."

Kelbor's soul was annihilated.
