"There is something wrong with those Mechanicus. They have rebelled and still cling to technology. Is it necessary?" Wei Dalong followed Liu Haodong and asked dissatisfiedly.
"In order to maintain their status in the empire, they engage in technological blockade! Isn't that what the United States likes to do?" Liu Haodong said bluntly.
The two of them walked together, and Liu Haodong also told Wei Dalong that he wanted to learn some skills in repairing warships, and how he was rejected by the priest accompanying the army.
At first, Wei Dalong didn't understand why Liu Haodong still wanted to learn how to maintain battleships. He thought Liu Haodong had learned enough.
When he was in the monastery, Liu Haodong first appeared as a pharmacist's apprentice and a psychic. Although he deliberately downplayed this influence later, he knew that Liu Haodong had been learning psychic abilities.
As for pharmacy, Wei Dalong only knew that Liu Haodong had worked as an assistant to Blinken, and he should have learned pharmacy.
In addition, the powers each master needs to be exercised, so how can there be time to learn how to maintain a warship?
In this regard, Liu Haodong explained a little bit, saying that the last time he deliberately destroyed the computer room, he almost caused a big problem, so he had a psychological shadow and thought it was necessary to understand some mechanical knowledge.
But the World Eaters lacked rational technical sergeants, and the Mechanicus did not teach them. Now they could only see if the technical sergeants from the Word Bearers could teach them something.
Only then did the two of them arrive at the Word Bearer area.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
The heavy footsteps of the power armor suddenly stopped after turning the corner.
The two battleship slaves looked up at the two World Eaters, and then looked down at the magic circle trampled by Wei Dalong's power armor, daring to be angry but afraid to speak.
Wei Dalong didn't pay attention to what he was stepping on. His attention was entirely on the possessed warrior.
This was his first time seeing an enchanted warrior. He had heard of it before, but had never seen it before.
Liu Haodong walked around the corner and saw these possessed warriors, but after just one glance, Liu Haodong focused on a Word Bearer who was staring at him.
This Word Bearer was taller than the other Word Bearers, and for some reason, there were sharp bumps on his head.
And judging from where he was standing, he should be an officer among the Word Bearers.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Liu Haodong walked towards the Word Bearer officer. The Word Bearer officer did not leave, but looked at Liu Haodong curiously.
As Liu Haodong came closer and closer, the Word Bearer officers gradually raised their heads.
Wei Dalong did not step forward. For some reason, these Word Bearers gave him a bad feeling.
And it's not because of those freakishly possessed warriors.
He didn't like the overall atmosphere of the Word Bearers, the faint smoke in the corridor, the swaying candlelight, and the tattoos with weird runes on his body.
The two battleship slaves at his feet moved. Wei Dalong looked down at the two slaves. A strange pattern was carved on the foreheads of these two slaves with a knife, and he didn't know what it meant.
There was also the blood-red formation under his feet, which made him uncomfortable.
Maybe it's because he knows that he is a player in the emperor's camp, and the place where they are is the enemy camp.
This made Wei Dalong think of undercover people. Are those people who are undercover in the enemy camp the same as his current mentality?
The undercover's mentality should be better. If he had the same mentality, the undercover would have been exposed long ago.
In the territory of the World Eaters, Wei Dalong was familiar with the World Eaters and could still remain calm.
But the Word Bearers are different. The Word Bearers are different from ordinary rebels. Their entire legion has long since surrendered to Chaos, so the atmosphere of the legion must be different from other rebel legions.
When Wei Dalong was thinking about what was there and what was not, he suddenly found that Liu Haodong and the guy with the bump on his head were already chatting.
The two exchanged a few words before the Word Bearers Captain nodded and left.
When Wei Dalong saw that they had finished chatting, he immediately stepped forward and walked towards Liu Haodong.
When the two slaves saw Wei Dalong leaving, they immediately wiped the place where they had just been stepped on. The slave whose forehead was not injured had a symbol carved on his forehead, and the slave who had a wound that no longer bled was stabbed.
Blood immediately gushed out from the wound that was no longer bleeding. The injured slave gritted his teeth and persisted, with the veins on his head popping out.
Xue Xue drew the formation again. While drawing the formation, he would also poke blood on the forehead of the injured slave from time to time.
But the slave with an injury on his forehead may have lost too much blood. His face was pale and his expression was dull and confused.
The formation was quickly drawn, and the intact slave wiped the blood from his fingers and continued to pray.
The deep voice echoed in the corridor, but it didn't travel far.
Originally two people were praying but now he was the only one praying, and his fellow slaves with dull expressions were also drawn into the blood formation by him.
A slight cold wind blew by, and the praying slave thought that someone else was passing by. He turned around and looked, but found no one, which made him a little puzzled. There was a faint smell of strange odor on the tip of his nose, but he didn't know where the odor came from. There was incense in the Word Bearer's cabin!
Why does it smell bad?
He turned around and continued praying, but the slave's eyes widened instantly.
The slave rubbed his eyes in disbelief, then looked into the formation, only to see a translucent beast standing in the middle of the formation. This kind of cat, which only existed in Ancient Terra, was a species that the slave had never seen before.
So he didn't know what this translucent beast represented.
The beast opened its mouth wide and looked like it was moving its jaw, staring at its companion with bright eyes.
companion?
Only then did the slave react. He found that his companion's eyes were glowing with a faint purple light, and a mysterious aura was flowing through his body, causing his body to change.
Round bumps appeared around the companion's eyes, and something was crawling inside these bumps.
"It was successful?"
"It was actually successful?"
"But why did the sacrifice receive the blessing of subspace?"
The slave gritted his teeth, so much so that he forgot about the translucent beast in front of him.
This beast is obviously Liu Haodong's Nian Beast Cat. After the Nian Beast Cat changed, Liu Haodong spent a lot of time educating the Nian Beast Cat to learn to hide itself.
Although it would be fine even if the mind beast cat was exposed now, psykers were still not welcome among the World Eaters, so Liu Haodong still chose to hide.
The Nian Beast Cat moved its chin, raised its head slightly, and immediately opened its mouth exaggeratedly. Then the Nian Beast Cat jumped slightly and swallowed the slave corroded by the subspace into its mouth.
The intact slave was shocked. He originally thought that the mind beast cat would swallow his companion's head.
The translucent body of the mind beast cat allows the slave to clearly see that the two fangs above the cat's mouth are piercing directly into the companion's eyes.
Then the Nian Beast Cat made a sucking action, and the purple color in its companion's eyes quickly disappeared, and the originally corroded body returned to its original appearance.
The companion's body could no longer support him, and he fell to the ground in a state of confusion.
The translucent Nian Beast cat immediately grew in size. The cat that was originally mostly white and embellished with black patterns now has a purple pattern on its head. Its body looks a little more solid, but it still maintains its transparent properties. .
"This..."
The slave didn't know what to do for a moment, so he immediately wanted to seek help from the Word Bearer not far away.
But when he turned around, he realized that the Word Bearers had already left, the two World Eaters were no longer there, and even the team of possessed warriors had gone somewhere.
When he turned back, the Nian Beast Cat also disappeared.
"My lord?" The slave immediately stood up and ran in the direction where the Word Bearers left.
He wanted to report this matter to the Word Bearers, but after chasing them all the way, he didn't find the Word Bearers, only the World Eater who stepped on his formation just now.
Seeing that it was the World Eater, the slave immediately shut up, said nothing, and carefully walked through the area where the World Eater was leaning against the wall.
The other tall World Eater disappeared, and after walking around the area where the World Eater was, he had already seen the enchanted warrior leaving.
So the slave chased the possessed warrior again.
Wei Dalong looked at the slave who left strangely, wondering why this slave was so crazy.
Now he was quite curious about Liu Haodong. Both of them were from the Emperor's camp, but Liu Haodong didn't feel any discomfort or guilt when communicating with traitors like the Word Bearers Captain.
He was able to successfully negotiate with the Word Bearers Captain about going to the Word Bearers battleship to learn from the technical sergeant.
The Captain of the Word Bearers naturally agreed.
So... thinking about it, Wei Dalong suddenly sweated on his forehead.
Although when they were in the monastery, all three of them said that they were from the Emperor's camp, no one could provide conclusive evidence.
So is there a possibility that Liu Haodong deceived him?
In fact, Liu Haodong is not from the Emperor camp, but a player from the Horus camp?
Thinking of this, Wei Dalong immediately thought of the undercover thing he had thought about before. Could Liu Haodong be an undercover?
