Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 28 The Impossible Possibility

After listening to the envoy's kind advice, the pharmacist brothers, led by the chief pharmacist, began intensive preoperative preparations.

The temporarily opened stasis field was closed again, and Calvin's sleeping face seemed to be the same as when the blood was just injected.

The pharmacists began to measure around his head and try to find the best entry point based on the information provided by the Imperial Army.

The chief pharmacist, who had not been in front-line operations for a long time, broke with common sense and performed the new technique himself.

This was not only based on the emphasis on the new surgery, but also to avoid the embarrassing scene of him facing the imperial envoys when he stood outside the operating table for a long time. (One kill kills two birds with one stone. Let us praise his wit.)

After everything was ready, the chief pharmacist operated the scalpel with a serious face and repeatedly confirmed the best surgical path from his assistant.

Without hesitation, he raised the high-frequency vibrating knife that began to buzz after being charged, and reached for Calvin's head...

After intense incision and precise tissue separation, the scene at the core of Calvin's brainstem was clearly visible to the surgical team through optical fiber transmission.

The leaf-like gland that originally only existed in perspective views finally unveiled its mystery in the eyes of everyone.

The translucent crystalline substance makes up the main part of the leaf, and slender blood vessels pass through the glands like leaf veins, surging slightly as the veins open and close.

The entire gland is so exquisite that it doesn't look like a mortal creation, but no one knows anything about its function.

Then, with the efforts of the entire surgical team, the highly similar gland brought by the Imperial Army was gently placed in a symmetrical position on the right side of the center of the brainstem.

The next step is to find suitable arteriovenous blood vessels in the surrounding tissues for transplantation to build a basic circulation circuit.

When the vascular circuit of the newly implanted gland is established and no blood loss points are confirmed, the wound is quickly sutured.

Immediately afterwards, Calvin was quickly carried back to the life-support cabin by the surgical team, and supplies reserves several times the normal standard were mobilized to the logistics department.

Prepare all the necessary conditions that the outside world can do for the upcoming final genetic transformation.

It was only then that everyone relaxed and relaxed, and they were finally able to calm down and appreciate the full view of the two glands they had previously photographed on the optical fiber transmission screen.

"It's so beautiful! Does it have a name?" This is the admiration of a pharmacist brother.

"Then what is its function?" Under the explicit pressure of the chief pharmacist's wink, his assistant asked the Custodes envoy standing next to the operating table.

"Carol, this is its name." The Imperial Guard looked at the glands on the light guide screen with complex eyes, seeming to be caught up in some memories. murmured.

"What's the effect?" The assistant asked, still coming from the chief pharmacist, who was elbowed by the leader out of great curiosity.

"What it does?" The envoy of the Imperial Army woke up from his memories, and he looked at the many Astartes in front of him playfully.

"According to the original data found, its function is multi-threaded thinking ability, which allows people to process information from different sources at the same time."

"Ah, is that so? That is indeed of no use to us." After listening to the words of the imperial envoy, the pharmacists cautiously came to a conclusion.

After relaxing, one of the pharmacists seemed to want to ease the tense atmosphere. He recalled the words of the imperial army before and asked in a professional tone:

"You said before that the basis for cultivating this gland was derived from some original data. So, what was the last specific form of the individual it was used in?"

"Is there a specific application target?..." The envoy of the Forbidden Army looked around for a week after hearing the sound, and then said happily with some retaliation:

"How about we put it another way. First of all, it does not come from us, secondly it does not come from the Thunder Warriors, and thirdly it does not come from the Astartes. Well, of course it cannot be the great Emperor. Guess?"

Quiet...deadly quiet.

All the pharmacists remained motionless as if they had been thrown into a stasis field. They needed time to digest the meaning of the absurd information they heard.

"It can't be the Emperor, not the Astartes, not the Imperial Army, and certainly not the ancient Thunder Warriors..."

Although the remaining answers may sound absurd, after all possibilities have been eliminated, no matter how bizarre the final answer may be, it is the final possibility.

"Abba, Abba, Abba... Bah, bah, bah! Half? The other half?" The pharmacist brother pointed at the glands that had grown there before the implantation operation, and turned around. He looked at the imperial envoy in disbelief:

"Then...Aba Aba..."

The imperial envoy understood what the pharmacist brother wanted to express. He nodded and said:

"Judging from the descriptions in the existing data, this is indeed likely to be the other half. However, this part of the data has been lost, and the empire cannot produce it even if it tries its best. So we cannot be sure. This is the Marshal's opinion of this Reasons why young people are interested.”

The atmosphere in the room became quiet again, and within a few breaths, the chief pharmacist was the first to react.

He straightened up and glanced around condescendingly. After confirming everyone's names, he said:

"My order! After the operation is over, the operation data will be sealed on the spot, and everyone, including me, will have their memories cleaned! Now, no one is allowed to go out!"

The chief pharmacist turned around and looked at the Imperial Guards envoy, half asking and half commanding, and said: "If you are sorry, please don't rush back to report. Please, be a witness for us here."

The Imperial Guards envoy shrugged. He didn't mind. And to be honest, he was also very interested in being able to witness the reappearance of the Empire's top technology in a certain sense.

After calmly speaking to the Imperial Guards envoy, the chief pharmacist turned around and said to the assistant next to him, "Notify the Grand Master of the Shaper Guards to request that all personnel in and out of the entire Titan be closed, and notify all the Grand Masters who have not left the base. Request them to arrive as soon as possible!"

After a period of chaos, Titan, which seemed to be still calm and shrouded in thick fog to the outside world, had actually stood up its hair, widened its eyes, opened its claws, and entered the highest alert state.

The permanent representative of the Inquisition, who was stationed in the Blackmailer Company of the Seventh Company of the Holy Hammer Order, was silently controlled at the first time, blocking all his attempts to contact the outside world.

On Titan III, the Paladins who have been stationed in the Champion Hall for many years, led by the high-ranking knights, all equipped with Terminator power armor and headed to Titan, and established blockades on various key roads on it.

The strike cruisers directly under the Grey Knights on the surrounding cruise routes, although they did not know the reason for the sudden alert of the base. But after receiving the order, they still turned on the auspicious instrument at full power, and the charging of the light spear and shield was also fully charged at the same time.

At this moment, in Titan and the nearby defense zone, any personnel and vehicle units who tried to enter or leave without permission would be shot directly under the highest alert, without notification, warning, and no hesitation or mercy.

The office of the Tribunal on Terra also suddenly received an encrypted notice from the Holy Hammer Order:

"From now on, our order will temporarily close the external entrances and exits, and the support forces that have been sent will temporarily suspend the return and repair plan, and the strike support forces that have not been sent will temporarily stop the action plan. Holy Emperor bless, we should restore contact as soon as possible."

Then, all attempts to contact Saturn will no longer receive any response.

The reason is unknown, the time is unknown.
