"Training begins."
As an emotionless voice came from the speakers, Soshyan was the first to pounce on the machine.
It raised its fists, trying to give him a blow, but he grabbed them directly, pressed his heels firmly on the floor of the training ground, and pushed hard.
As the sand piled up behind him, Soshyan slowed down to a natural balance between him and the machine's power, then slowly pushed the training machine backward across the sand.
The machine's engine whined, and the veins on Soshiyan's neck were exposed.
Then, he adjusted his grip, shifted his foot, and roared, forcing the machine aside.
The huge force forced it to bend its left knee. Soshyan gritted his teeth and kicked to the right, hitting the joint hard one after another until it was sprained and spurted out a stream of oil.
Eventually, the machine fell to the ground.
Soshyan retreated and prepared for the next attack.
This is just a warm-up, and the machine will quickly correct itself for such minor damage.
"Program interrupted."
Soshiyang looked up. He was still alone, but the holographic projection lens embedded in the wall was shining with white light, and a familiar figure appeared in the sky.
"Farzad, what's the matter?"
"Chapter Commander, the priest asked me to tell you that the purification of the Unbound Soul has been completed, but there are some things that you need to deal with personally."
"Okay, I'll be right away."
Afterwards, Soshyan took off the training armor, briefly wiped the sweat off his body, put on the power armor again, and summoned Thor and Sevatar to take the Saber of Glory to the temporary dock in Gages.
Five days later, they arrived at their destination.
Entering orbit, the first thing that catches the eye is the largely repaired Unbound Soul. The subspace imprints on its appearance have been erased. The desecrated church on the upper deck has also been rebuilt. The Imperial Sky Eagle statue on the bow of the ship. Glossy again.
Although there was no damage to the structure, it took nearly a year and a lot of manpower to complete these tasks? Soshiyan even mobilized part of the manpower used to repair the Starfire to the Unbound Soul. superior.
At its most, there were more than 200,000 workers, slaves and servitors of all kinds working on the ship.
The priest Yazdan persisted in the purification work on the ship for hundreds of days. Working with him, there were more than 300 state church priests and 50 clerical nuns.
This process was not without accidents. As a warship that has been corroded by subspace? It is obviously unrealistic to not have any accidents.
In fact, during the entire year of renovations, various unexplained suicides, violent activities, and even organized rebellions broke out. According to simple statistics, tens of thousands of workers died one after another, including 20 There are many priests and countless damaged servitors.
In order to ensure that no serious accidents occur, Soshyan has kept Ustad's team stationed here to suppress various riots at any time.
After the workers and slaves finish their work, except for some senior workers who pass the review and will be transferred to the Spark to continue working, most of the rest will arrange to colonize the Flon system directly on the spot - it is said to be colonization, but it is actually quite large. In exile.
This was the last mercy Soshyan could offer, and by the standards of the Inquisition, all mortals here should be executed.
After arriving at the temporary dock, Soshyan took the lead in meeting Yazdan and getting a general understanding of the situation.
To put it simply, there is still some work to be done inside the ship, but it does not affect its use and the remaining work can be completed while sailing.
On the other hand? is the last question of the Unbound Soul.
"this……"
In a secret warehouse in the shipyard, Yazdan opened a heavy iron door. Then the lights in the warehouse lit up one by one, and there was another door at the end, but the door was covered with various scripture strips.
Without opening the door, Soshyan knew what was inside.
Yazdan pointed to the door and said slightly tiredly:
"...This thing, its witchcraft is too powerful and cannot be purified. All the guards who first guarded it have died. They committed suicide, so I can only check it in person every three days."
Behind that door is the mysterious machine that appeared in the astrology room together with the demon host.
When Rogris saw it for the first time, he concluded that it was a blasphemous machine, not a type of Omnissian machine at all, and named it the blasphemous furnace.
Afterwards, Soshyan asked Thor and Savita to check the machine again, and both sides came to basically the same result - it was something that combined the power of subspace and was similar to a demon engine.
Demon engines are semi-technical and semi-magical creations. Different types of demon engines have great differences in form and function, but they all have one thing in common - the physical shell of the machine contains a The Chaos Daemons bound within, these Daemons are responsible for controlling the actions of the Daemon Engine.
Daemon Engines possess an insatiable bloodlust and are obsessed with violence and destruction. Regardless of their allegiance, these deranged creations will destroy anything in their path, so these vehicles must be restrained until they are turned upon the enemy. Release and go.
Like all Warp entities, Daemon Engines exude an aura of death and hatred that would overwhelm a weaker being.
Anyone standing near one of these demon-possessed vehicles is often brought to their knees in fear as the demon's presence floods their minds.
Building a demon engine requires the participation of people who understand the knowledge of chaos, such as dimensional blacksmiths, chaos wizards, and technical priests of the Dark Mechanicus. Demons will be bound under the shells of these machines to spread and control the entire machine's wiring, thereby controlling and mobilize all functions of the bound machine.
But this machine is not offensive, so Savita does not think it is the same thing as the regular demon engine.
It functions more like a radar.
And the Crow Prince also proposed a bold idea.
That is, the demon in this machine has actually been separated. In other words, in order to better control this machine, the Chaos Wizard stuffed part of the demon belonging to the demon engine into the demon host, so that the demon host, the machine, and the demon all The three form a subtle connection.
The advantage of this is that it can control the more powerful demons. After all, most demons will be weakened after splitting into two.
At the same time, the demon's abilities are well preserved, and it is obviously easier to control a demon host than a demon engine.
For this reason, directly destroying this machine may release the demon inside, so Soshyan can only ask Yazdan to temporarily seal it and wait for the right opportunity to deal with it.
