Plunder the Heavens from Warhammer

Chapter 282: Alpha's Shadow! (October Monthly Pass Plus 10)

Judging from the direction, the core area of ​​the explosion should be Celerus's lower nest, which is also the direction where the "Star Reaver Harken" originally arrived!

The huge vibration and the air wave caused by the explosion soon swept over!

Looking at the sky that seemed to be on fire, Alvin's originally happy mood suddenly sank. His eyes were fixed on that direction, as if he had fallen into a freezing cold glacier. A chill went up along his spine until it emerged from the top of his head!
"It's... a Psychic!"

He finally understood why, since the arrival of 'Star Reaver Harkon', there has been no major action except for sending a few Hell Dragons and Chaos Raptor troops to harass various important facilities in the nest area.

It turns out... this is the moment that Star Stealer Haken has been waiting for!
He used the broadcasting sound array system to constantly broadcast filthy, blasphemous, and corrupt distorted sounds in the Celerus nest area, but he did not intend to use this to undermine the fighting will of the Astra Militarum!
Haken's real target is those 'potential' psychics!
Under the influence of the Great Rift, the civilians on the Vigilant Planet were already extremely violent, not to mention those psychics who already had deep connections with the Warp?

Although the Ministry of Justice has immediately controlled many psychics who showed symptoms, there are still a very small number of psychics who have not yet "awakened" and cannot be discovered at all, let alone discovered and controlled!
You know, there are tens of billions of people in the Celerus Hive. In addition to the technical priests, the Star Army, the Ministry of Justice and other personnel, there are also two-thirds of the civilians who have been violently driven to the middle and lower nest areas!
Those places have no perfect protection and no effective means, and are almost in a state of free-range. In the eyes of Drekris, apart from the precious assets of the Black Stone creations and the Mechanicus, the lives of those civilians are not even as important as a servo skull.

This is a series of chain reactions!
Because of the harassment by the greenskins and gene stealers, important energy shield devices were destroyed, causing Drecris to order the front to shrink. However, due to the retreat of the resistance front, a large number of civilians did not have time to evacuate and were abandoned in the middle and lower nests.

Now, those 'psychics' who have not yet awakened, under Haken's persistent corruption and inducement to fall, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and were forcibly guided to awaken, and finally... lost control!

Just like the explosion just now, it was obviously a phenomenon that when the psychic awakened, he lost control and went berserk because he could not control the power!

If it had happened earlier, or if Drexel had changed his mind, perhaps this scene would not have happened, but... there is no 'if'.

At the moment, what makes Alvin even more puzzled is that, logically speaking, psychics should be extremely rare and generally only awaken to a very low level.

But... looking at that huge mushroom cloud, even from a long distance, Alvin could still feel the terrifying 'psychic energy' contained in it!
They are not on the same order of magnitude at all!
"I... shouldn't be so unlucky, right?" Alvin swallowed hard. It shouldn't be such a coincidence that he would run into such a 'level' that is rarely seen among billions of humans!

At this moment, Drechs also rushed out of the Foundry Temple, staring at the mushroom cloud that almost covered the sky with a gloomy face. One could clearly see the fear flashing across his face.

"Do you think it's possible..."

Alvin's expression was stiff, and his eyes never left the huge mushroom cloud, as if it was... afraid.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Drexel suddenly growled, interrupting Alvin's next words. Although he seemed calm, his trembling hands betrayed him.

Alvin fell silent.

He also wanted to convince himself, but judging from the scale of the "explosion", it was difficult to refute it with reason. That person must be at least a... "Delta level" or above psychic!
This means that once the psychic completely loses control or is possessed by a demon, it will be a fatal blow to the empire and even Huangquan No. 8!
"Pray..." Drexel looked in that direction, trying his best to hide his fear, but his previously calm voice was shaking uncontrollably: "What if it's a 'Beta-level' or 'Alpha-level' psychic... Otherwise, Alert Star will be finished!"

This is not an exaggeration.

As a psychic, Alvin could sense the terrible power contained in the aftermath of the psychic explosion much better than Drexel! If the subspace psychic energy that an Etan-level psychic could mobilize was compared to a faucet, then psychics above the Delta level were like a thick water pipe, or even a stream!

A Beta-level psychic is equivalent to a dam, and as for the highest level 'Alpha', or even 'Alpha Plus' level... it's unimaginable!
Even the Titan Legion would be no different from paper in front of an Alpha Plus psychic. For such a terrifying existence, just one person... is equivalent to a huge legion!

In other words, if it is really 'Alpha' level, they should stop struggling and run away as soon as possible, otherwise when Alpha completely falls into chaos, the entire Alert Planet will be swallowed up by the subspace!
"Sir Alvin, our deal... may have to be delayed for a while." Drexel said in a low voice: "I believe you should be very clear... about the harm of a high-level psychic. We must find the awakened psychic before Chaos!"

"Agree."

Alvin had no objection to this wave.

He could still distinguish right from wrong. If that psychic was corrupted by Chaos, there would be no need to wait for the arrival of Skybraid, and Celerus and even the entire Alert Planet would be destroyed!

This is still the best result!

The worst case scenario... is that the entire Sentinel Planet, with the rift torn by the Great Psyker, is completely swallowed up by the Warp, causing the 'Cursed Scar' that stretches across it to be further expanded, completely isolating the Empire from the dark side, and humanity will never be able to turn things around!

After hurriedly bidding farewell to Drakeris, Alvin returned to the mansion and immediately went to find Hilda: "I need your help!"

"Is it about the awakening of the psychic just now?"

With such a large scope and impact, it was hard for Hilda not to notice it. She frowned and said, "Don't expect me to go. I don't want to go and die. A psychic of that level... It's as easy to kill me as it is to kill an ant. Besides, I have to protect Elsa."

"I know. I want to borrow a group of Samhan's Eldar warriors from you." Alvin added, "Don't worry, I won't let them get involved in the affairs of the psychic."

"That's it, then there's no problem."

Hilda nodded, but looked at him doubtfully. "So how do you plan to deal with that awakened psyker? Judging from the range, you should know that he is at least a Delta-class."

"I know, but I'm going too."

Alvin showed a bit of bitterness and sighed, "Once he falls into Chaos' hands, no one can escape. I must deal with him."

Psykers above Delta level are as dangerous as a walking 'atomic bomb'. If they are truly corrupted by Chaos, they can tear a subspace rift across the planet in the material universe in a matter of minutes, like a mountain valley!
Hand it over to Drakeris?
No thanks. He was worried that if the Ministry of Justice and the Inquisitor were not careful and detonated the psychic, he would just be dead!
Besides, Alvin is not completely helpless. If it really doesn't work, he can just wait until he finds the psychic and throw him into the "alien universe" next door!

Blow it up!

You can blow it up however you want. If you have the guts, blow up a subspace for him!
