Chapter 515 The Importance of Exchanging Names
Chapter 515 The Importance of Exchanging Names
"The Emperor's Messenger..."
There was an uproar as soon as these words were spoken. This title really surprised everyone.
Even the Pope of the state religion rarely dares to call himself the Emperor's messenger so brazenly.
They only dare to call themselves so when they are preaching to future believers who are far away from the faith of the God-Emperor, backward and ignorant.
However, in the United Council of the Inquisition, such a title is no different from arrogance, which will only lead to one's isolation and helplessness.
However, there is still one situation that people are willing to call the Emperor's Messenger, even though the vast majority do not call themselves that.
They all have a resounding code name - living saints.
But this guy really doesn't seem to be worthy of his position. Moreover, shouldn't all the holy relics be placed here?
"Sister Elsa, what is going on?" Sister Dorothy immediately asked.
The question asked by the head nun is also what everyone wants to know.
But Elsa is just an ordinary combat nun, and she doesn't understand why all the holy relics have disappeared.
"This guy is from the Zakli Think Tank. He was the one who entered the box in the first place."
Everyone was wondering what kind of subordinate this was. This kind of appearance was totally not something that ordinary people could have.
All the psychics present were confused about his identity without exception, but they could all sense one thing.
This guy is not "human".
"I thought there would be a lot of people, but I didn't expect it to be so full. Is this to discuss the relics, or to fight against the invasion of the Tau forces?"
Looking at such a large crowd, the umbilical cord substitute knew that the situation in Sharnasqua was better than he had imagined.
The fact that the inefficient imperial organization can come together to discuss matters is itself a cause for celebration.
Now the success rate of his own plan has been greatly improved, and it seems to have increased from 0% to 10%.
Thinking of this, the umbilical cord substitute, Lin Heng's secondary body, couldn't help but start to feel happy for himself, that is, Lin Heng.
In fact, according to Lin Heng’s plan, it should be the substitute who opens the box at this moment and surprises the leader of the state religion on his behalf.
However, he did not expect that the spiritual energy released by the communication between himself and his substitute through the umbilical cord would resonate with all the holy relics.
In addition, his previous guess was completely correct, and with the blessing of his own soul, when the holy relics used to construct the body came into contact, this new body was born.
The powers of those holy relics gradually revived in my mind, and the various functions of my body began to restart.
The umbilical cord in the void still exists, and oneself and the subject still share a common destiny.
It’s just that he doesn’t have powerful psychic powers, a perfect genetically modified body, or enviable powerful weapons.
But, the most important thing is that there is no mark of the damn evil god.
The stand-in laughed unconsciously, and he felt relaxed for the first time in a long time.
This sudden smile of joy was puzzling, and the cardinals didn't know whether to be happy or sad about the appearance of this life.
Gerald looked at those psychics, but no matter who they were, they were all obviously confused about this situation.
Even the Chief of the Astronomical Court, who had taught thousands of astrologers, found it hard to imagine that such a form of psychic expression could exist.
“Incredible, this… the understanding of the subspace has probably reached an unimaginable level.
And his control over psychic energy definitely surpasses that of most psychics.
It's like everyone else can only cut or crush a stone, but he can turn it inside out..."
The eyeless Chief of the Star Language Court was sighing with emotion, while the Chief of the Navigators who used the All-Seeing Eye again screamed in pain.
The scarlet blood flowing from the tightly closed third eye rolled to the ground and shattered like ice crystals.
Ms. Mei immediately took action to eliminate the turbulent spiritual energy in the clan leader's body.
The other think tanks or psychics did not dare to act rashly and tried to investigate the other party's situation.
"Don't... don't try to find out... the main body of that soul... is not something you and I can touch."
The patriarch groaned in pain, and Gerald immediately had him taken to rest, staring at the substitute with burning eyes.
"Are you a human being or a holy relic? What is your relationship with Dardani?" a cardinal asked excitedly.
"Where did this box come from? Why are there traces of Necrons?" the Tech-Sage inquired.
"What is your relationship with Zakri, the Salamanders' think tank? Where is that guy now?" the Watch Captain asked.
A group of people asked about the substitute's situation, but after Grand Inquisitor Gerald stood up, everyone shut up.
Gerald walked up to the stand-in, with eyes as pure as the vast galaxy, and said seriously, word by word:
"Are you the one who wrote the soul contract?"
Everyone who participated in the first meeting immediately thought of something. They opened their eyes wide, straightened their backs, and were eager to hear the answer.
"Oh my god, you guys really got it!"
There was a series of creaking sounds of tables and chairs being moved, and a series of surprised gasps of "hissing, haha, umm".
Everyone was so surprised that it couldn't be expressed anymore. Gerald clenched his hands and finally revealed a smile of victory.
Reaching back, Ms. Mei took out the soul contract that was suppressed by her negative psychic energy from her arms.
The dull paper gradually revived after leaving the range of negative spiritual energy, and the words on it became much more lively.
"Go to area 1, Dark Strait (may not exist, and the Black Legion is attacking this place).
Go to area two, 377-H Death World, belonging to the Sharnasqua area.
Go to location three, the Titanium area."
Gerald read the contents of the contract again. The double nodded to show that it was correct.
“Robert Guilliman already knows of your awakening, and I am his spokesperson, Lion El’Jonson of the First Legion.
Have you had contact with His Royal Highness the Regent? And how did you know that the Lion King had awakened?"
Everyone's eyes shifted from Jellal to the Stand. The one who was promoted shrugged and spread his hands and said:
"Just as I said before, the Emperor told me."
"Oh. The Divine Emperor!"
After the stand-in finished speaking, the group of people from the state religion immediately stood up and knelt, wanting to pray to the God-Emperor.
Among this crowd, Sister Dorothy showed a puzzled expression.
He called Sister Elsa and asked her carefully. After confirming that what he was thinking was wrong, he stood up and said:
"Grand Inquisitor, this guy should not be the mysterious Zakli think tank."
The Grand Inquisitor and a group of members of the chapter finally discovered that something was wrong.
Whether it was because the incident was too shocking or for some other reason, they did not even notice this most obvious characteristic.
"Answer the questions of the three people before you, and also whether you are the creator of the soul contract?"
"Yes and no."
"What do you mean?"
“First, the holy relics. As you can see, the two eyeballs have merged with me.
Therefore, I am made up of the fusion of holy relics. And the reason why I can do this is that I found the secret connection among the lost holy relics of Dardani.
I don't know this guy Dardani, but he wants to use the relics to create a body that can hold the Emperor's soul.
But, unfortunately, I got all the money at a bargain. Of course, I also doubt its carrying capacity is not up to the mark.
As for Zachli, he is the creator of the soul contract, and I am just a sub-body of the other party's soul.
And regarding the matter of alien creations, my subject has a close relationship with the Death Watch of the Eye of Damocles.
So it is not heresy to have alien creatures, it is just learning from the foreigners to defeat them."
The stand-in answered everyone's questions in a few words. He rubbed his temples and carefully examined the official positions of the people.
He didn't need to pay attention to those wandering merchants, department officials didn't need to care about them, and he didn't need to negotiate with military officers and generals.
What we really need to pay attention to are those guys who have no subordinates behind them.
Moreover, just when he arrived, Bishop Dardani of the Cardinal World had died. The party struggles here might be more intense than he had imagined.
What also made him a little worried was the silent negative psychic behind the Grand Inquisitor.
The existence of the other party might hinder my advancement plan... Should I eliminate it?
The viciousness of that moment disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the Stand maintained a kind expression and asked:
"Everyone, do you have any questions?"
There are questions, of course there are questions, but people don't know how to ask them, especially about this form of psychic expression.
...
"The Eye of Damocles... I have heard of Watch Commander Alexi..." said Seraphim Watch Captain regretfully.
"Ahriman is dead...and the Eldar Harlequin is so active now," said the alien Inquisitor Duntor in surprise.
“You actually faced the Black Legion in the Dark Straits…and those Eldar beasts stood with you?
Damn Alpha Legion, I will tear these traitors apart sooner or later." Inquisitor Woodrow said with a displeased look.
Everyone has their own ideas, and Gerald is no exception. When he learned that another Demon Inquisitor helped him resist the Zerg offensive, a relieved expression different from everyone else's appeared on his face.
"Belvius, huh? It seems the little girl has become an adult worthy of trust."
"Oh? You know her."
The substitute was very interested. Belvis was one of the few people he trusted. Since the other party was familiar with him, it seemed easier to get along with him.
Gerald raised his lips and nodded, "More than knowing her, she is my trainee.
A little guy, who has been able to resist the parasitic demon with his own will since he was a child, this is something I dare not even think about. "
"Huh? Bro, are you also possessed by a demon?!"
“The Underworld Walker Cult is a faction that the Demonic Inquisition does not want to mention.
The core concept is to first be possessed by a demon, and then exorcise the demon to allow the original host to gain extremely strong resistance to the warp.
Of course, there are also people who retain demon souls and use demon power on the edge of danger. I...Belvus.
The Exorcist Regiment, which has been working closely with the Cult of the Underworld Walkers, has also become the only special forces to fight against Chaos, in addition to the Grey Knights. "
Gerald pointed to the Exorcist Captain beside him, whose shoulder armor was decorated with a horned skull.
The latest style MKX power armor in orange and red color made him look quite tall, and there were probably dozens of purity marks on his body.
There are so many prayers and demonic words on the armor that ordinary people would feel dizzy when seeing it.
The Chapter Master nodded, and the Stand nodded in return, before looking towards the other Chapter members gathered in the crowd.
One black, Raven Guard. One white, White Scars. Plus a Deathwatch, this place seems to have a lot of troops.
“For the first time, I felt safe.”
"The only cost is the extremely high death rate of new recruits, human heads..."
"It's just currency in the hands of the Emperor." The stand-in finished Gerald's words, just like when he was with Belvis.
The Chief Inquisitor nodded. He indeed felt that he trusted the other party more and more.
But he feared that this was the influence of some holy relic...
"Having said so much, Your Excellency the Living Saint, we hope to get your name so that the subsequent sculptures will have a name that can be passed down by word of mouth among believers."
A cardinal interrupted at the right time.
"Almost no one who knows my name can survive."
The stand-in frowned slightly and kept tapping his chin. He looked at Gerald hoping to get some inspiration from him.
"I'm afraid that's not going to work." Gerald immediately followed up, "Just based on my recent experience, I know that your situation is no longer suitable for ordinary people.
One's own name is closely related to one's destiny. One way to defeat a demon is to successfully speak out his real name.
Ordinary people cannot bear the weight of your name. Only people with strong luck can counter the power behind it.
If I am slightly weaker than you, at best I will suffer a series of misfortunes, at worst I will die."
The stand-in immediately understood, thinking that as expected of Belvis' teacher, he understood the subspace.
"It seems that Abaddon is indeed a powerful guy. It is particularly important to prepare for the next step."
Everyone looked at each other. Everyone knew the title of Abaddon the Plunderer, and it was he who made them so isolated and helpless.
Now that the real problem has been put on the agenda, the already broken Sharnasqua region is at risk of falling apart.
"Is it part of the Black Legion's warband?"
"No, all of them, plus the controller of the Soul Forge, the leader of the Creator Cult, is hunting us down.
I didn't fight Abaddon directly, but I did fight that madman named Kahn twice and almost lost.
They have been chasing my main body and it won’t be long before they catch up to the Sharnasqua domain.
Therefore, I want to improve my own strength while forming an alliance with the state religion.
But I didn't expect that you saw my contract. It was just a coincidence.
Since everyone is here, I will express my main idea and unite the front to fight against the foreign enemy."
"This is not easy. The power of the Tau has not been resolved, and we cannot spare more troops to fight against them." Alien Inquisitor Duntor said depressedly.
“Don’t worry about what the bishop and the inquisitor think, you will definitely meet His Excellency Zachli.
And there is a solution to the Tau problem. After all, their attacks on the industrial world of Vorkus have slowed down."
"I agree with the living saint's opinion, but we would like to witness Mr. Zachli more." The bishop said hurriedly.
The stand gave a confident smile, the success rate of the plan now reached 30%.
