When Talos said 'that person', Soshyan was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately realized who the other person was referring to.
Indeed, he is probably the only one who knows the Dark Eldar.
Soshyan frowned and thought for a while, then said to the nuns:
"Okay, you guys take a rest for a day or two, and I'll go find a way to detoxify Sister Anna."
"Thank you very much."
After asking the staff to arrange accommodation for the nuns, Soshyan immediately returned to Kayan's cell.
"The Haemonculi?"
After listening to Soshyan's narration, Kayan frowned.
"That shouldn't be the case. They rarely act alone...that's weird."
"What exactly are the Haemonculi?"
"Well, their origins are actually very complicated——"
The Haemonculi, also known as the Lords of Pain, are terrifying and crazy flesh shapers who have lived in the abyss of Commorragh for more than ten thousand years.
They are masters of torture, the Dark Eldar's greatest connoisseurs of fear, and to while away centuries of boredom, they use the prisoners of their dungeons to compose symphonies of love and pain that even their fellow Dark Eldar would love to hear. Fear three points, because the Haemonculi's technology not only reshapes flesh and blood, but even the soul cannot escape.
Haemonculi are often organized into "associations". Such associations are an integral part of Commorragh's deformed society, because the Dark Eldar rely on them for necessary regeneration procedures and torture. Even so, they are still terrifying and paranoid. Incarnation, even in the eyes of his own kind.
Everyone knows that anyone who dares to anger the Lord of Pain will be transformed into a new style of horrific painting.
Haemonculi are particularly good at flesh carving and modification, and love to use flesh as a new "canvas". If the client wants to decorate the shoulders with spiny quills, transform into an alien scaly reptile, or turn the eyes into chrome green dimensional spiders, for blood It is not difficult for an actor to get it.
It is unknown how a Dark Eldar became a Haemonculus. They are all Eldar from ancient times. Even among the immortal Eldar, their shriveled and terrifying bodies represent the passage of time, even bathing. They cannot be rejuvenated by the pain and suffering of others.
The oldest or ancient haemonculi may have even included those who founded the first sect of lust, born in the era before the fall of the Eldar - although this has never been confirmed, all The Haemonculi have changed their physical forms so that they are completely different from other members of their kind.
Physically, different individual Haemons will choose different decorations due to their own preferences and crazy thoughts, but there is no difference in being thin and twisted. There is no trace of fat on their pale bodies, and there are no internal organs in their waists. Better to present a stylish and scary image.
Some haemonculi hide their hearts, lungs, and other internal organs in a mass of muscle growing out of their shoulders, a cheek pouch filled with stimulants and other alchemical concoctions that often sprouts a second pair of arms.
Others will replace their own blood with hot spiritual liquid, or even inject acid into their modified blood vessels.
Their spines are stretched outward and grow down to the lower back, and the tail vertebrae form a bony tail that can be supported on the ground and capable of strangling prey.
A bone bracket will protrude from the back of the Haemonculus and be fixed to the head. A weird syringe hangs on the bracket, which can easily inject medicine into the prey's body.
Due to their near-immortal life, the Haemonculi are not as restless and fanatical as other young Dark Eldar. They rely on the support of anti-gravity crystals and move with a sickly grace, while some use their bones like poisonous snakes. The tail slides on the ground, after all, the sick villain knows that a perfect death requires enough time.
The Haemonculi are also very different from their other compatriots in their concept of wealth. They particularly value rare alchemical raw materials, such as the heart of the discerning Inquisitor or the extract of the vain and conceited Planetary Governor. The former is rich in the strong taste of perseverance, while the latter is The bloated thrill that comes from vanity.
Thousands of years of time have not completely affected them, and many Haemonculi have become extremely paranoid, such as eating only the left hands of their victims or drinking only children's tears from cups.
"The one who attacked the nuns should be a Haemonculus belonging to the Association of Changers. They are famous for never wearing the same anatomical equipment. They are the best at playing with poisons and are the leading poison suppliers in Comoros."
Soshyan sighed softly, it didn't feel good to ask for help, and he asked a traitor for help.
But he really had no better way. The pharmacists, including Valere, had all examined Velez's body, and everyone came to the same conclusion.
The poison in this nun has never been seen before. It not only attacks the blood and nerves at the same time, but also automatically generates some kind of drug resistance. No matter what relievers they inject, it has no effect. Even their bones in Velez Toxins were detected in Lidu - this also means that the exchange transfusion therapy will not work.
There is no doubt that the only hope of saving Velez lies in Khayon, who knows the dark elves best.
"Then do you know how to detoxify?"
Kayon raised his head, with a half-smile expression on his face.
"If I said, I can solve it, but you have to let me go, what would you choose?"
Soshyan clenched his fists.
"Then I promise you."
Although he said this, Soshyan made a decision in his heart. If Kayon really asked for it, even if he let the other party go, he would send others to kill him secretly.
Kayon seemed to see through his thoughts, laughed and said:
"Even if you really let me go, will you let Talos chase you? I'm a useless person now and I can't go anywhere."
"What's your answer?"
Kayon thought for a moment and then said:
"Have you ever tried being a psyker?"
"I also suspected that this poison might be some kind of curse, so I asked the most powerful astropath on the planet to observe it, but the result was not ideal... Anna's soul seemed to be covered by something."
Kayon nodded.
"That's it. Finitas once told me that the most dangerous poison for changers is the so-called 'soul poison'. This poison not only attacks the body, but also attacks the soul. It is almost a blow to non-psionic people. Must be killed...but since she has not died yet, it means that something is protecting her soul. It may be some holy object, or it may be that her family has some special blood, or she herself has a good ability. psyker potential."
"so what should I do now?"
"I don't have a good solution. After all, this is the poison that is the unique skill of the Haemonculi. If I really want to say there are people who can solve it, I can only think of two. One is the mad doctor of the Third Legion, Fabius the Skinner." ·Bair, he once studied with the Haemonculi, and may have mastered the method of detoxification, but this guy's reputation is worse than Nurgle's garden, and few people even think highly of him in the Eye of Terror. As for the second one... .. He is the Supreme Prophet of the Ark World Uthvi. He is considered one of the strongest among the Eldar. It is said that his lifespan is the longest among all the Eldar. His birth even preceded the death of the Eldar. There may be a way to cure it. The poison inflicted by his fallen kindred, I can't think of any other."
Soshyan was stunned. He had never heard of Fabius, let alone Kayan's tone. He should be a very bad traitor.
But Usvita from the Arkworld knew about it, and even had a conflict with him because of Talos.
If you think about it carefully, neither of these two paths seems to work.
"Let's do this. My personal suggestion is to use a stasis field to preserve her body first. As for her soul, let the astropath check it from time to time. There should be no problems in a short period of time. Then we can think of other solutions."
Kayan's suggestion was very practical, and Soshyan nodded in agreement.
"That's all it can do."
Two days later, he met the nuns again at the airport.
"Sister Anna's condition is very bad. The only way now is to put her into a life-sustaining stasis field and then find a way to detoxify her."
Sisters, you look at me and I look at you. Then it was Agnes who came forward and said:
"Then please leave it to Chapter Commander Soshyan. Our ship does not have this kind of equipment. When we return to the great monastery, we will send someone to pick up Sister Velez."
Soshiyang nodded. There are many types of stasis fields. The most common one is the standard stasis field that preserves equipment. But if you want to preserve life, it requires much more complicated technology. Therefore, the life-type stasis field Fields are very rare and expensive, and even within the Astartes Chapter, only the Dauntless can enjoy this treatment.
But what Soshiyan did not expect was that in the following months, the Ebony Holy Grail Order suffered a major setback in a battle with the Necron. All the senior members of the Order, including the Grand Sister, were killed, and only a few remaining members of the entire Order were left. When the combat strength reached 20%, the matter of taking back Velez was delayed.
And this delay is a very long time——
