The empire will not cease to exist because of the existence or absence of a certain person.
Terinka Lyudmila, a high-ranking demon judge who has been loyal to the empire for hundreds of years, does not have this qualification, nor does Calvin.
Regardless of his views on this matter, the Gray Knight Calvin, who is currently only serving as a purely executive unit, is inconvenient at this time and cannot make any interfering remarks.
Calvin had the right to speak.
With his influence within the Chapter, there is no problem in letting the Grand Master Council maintain a mere high-ranking inquisitor in the internal meeting of the Holy Hammer Order for his wishes.
But what's the cost? Does Calvin understand the consequences of his willfulness this time and letting the Gray Knights break the rules and interfere with the internal management of the Holy Hammer Order?
The consequence is that even if the Tribunal fully accepts this transgression, there will be no rebound.
Even if the other party handed over the decision-making power on this matter at the first opportunity, would the Gray Knights be able to accept it?
There is no need to resist. The other party just hands over all similar businesses and it is enough to swamp the Gray Knights' tense human resources.
So Calvin could only choose to remain silent.
After finally completing his work report, he accepted a new round of tasks under the arrangement of the Supreme Master.
"Orpheus?" Calvin looked at the mission briefing in his hand quietly.
There is no accurate mission information and no accurate mission location.
Grand Master Walden's explanation is that the prophecy from the Prophet Brotherhood informed the Grand Master Council that there would be servants of the Empire in the Orps sector on the edge of the distant Storm Star field who needed their assistance.
Such action seems so hasty and reckless.
But the irony is that it is precisely this kind of purely idealistic action that has saved the fate of entire galaxies and even star fields countless times in circumstances where precise plans cannot be implemented.
What's more coincidental is that when the Inquisition usually needs assistance to sway people, the first reaction of their respective psykers is also to divine whether there is a fleet of Gray Knights nearby...
Please note that there are no descriptive errors. It is divination, not initiating contact with the other party.
The idealistic world is so unreasonable, just like you trying to understand what "I am thinking" means.
In the second millennium after the establishment of the Order of the Hammer of the Inquisition, they found their own exclusive weapon - the Gray Knights Chapter.
When it comes to how to use this destructive war hammer, the Inquisition, as the hands wielding the war hammer, also needs to take on the responsibility of finding the enemy and discerning the enemy's eyes and mind.
So what is the specific usage process?
How can we ensure that the Gray Knight's power is maximized?
The cooperation and coordination between them achieved something similar to each other's precognition at the spiritual level within the scope of the entire empire's territory.
Gray Knights usually don't need to know where their enemies are, they just need to know where to go to be found by the Inquisition.
The frontline inquisitors of the Inquisition also do not need to know where the Gray Knights are.
They often only need to apply for assistance and wait for a while. A piece of spatial coordinate information from the headquarters' psychic chanting class can guide them to find the Gray Knights who are waiting nearby.
The specific operating principle of this mechanism was beyond Calvin's understanding.
In fact, among all the members of the Grand Master Council at the top of the entire Chapter, the only one who can truly understand the principles is Crom himself, the Grand Master of the Prophet Brotherhood in the council.
But this does not prevent this mature mechanism from fully utilizing the human resources of the Gray Knights over the past few thousand years...
Calvin was walking in the cloister of Titan wearing silver Dreadnought Armor. Neither the sculptures of heroes nor the windows on both sides could attract his attention.
He now needs to recall his troops and his comrades who were temporarily assigned to other task groups after he fell into coma.
The Mentor Council has obviously made relevant arrangements for this, otherwise Calvin would not have been able to see these champion swordsmen who were supposed to be fighting outside in such a short period of time after he woke up.
In fact only Gavins was explicitly ordered to keep an eye on and on standby for Gavin on Titan.
When the rest of the guard members saw Calvin returning to Titan safely, they had already received orders to go to different battlefields.
This is not a waste of human resources, but the waste of human resources of ten champion swordsmen is too extravagant for the Gray Knights Chapter.
Although the Chapter's prophet did not know the details of Calvin's condition, he had a rough estimate of the cause of the coma and the time it took for him to wake up.
Therefore, after Calvin's soul and body growth were completed according to normal progress and he woke up, he could see all the members of the Honor Guard so easily and without leaving a trace.
The planning and difficulties involved are really difficult for the Council of Mentors to handle, but it is a pity that Calvin does not know the hard work involved.
Perhaps it will be a long, long time before he truly masters this power one day, and he will accidentally see the care and love the veterans have for him revealed in these personnel scheduling documents while flipping through them.
Calvin once again returned to the Hall of Champions where the Paladins resided, and the eleven Paladins headed by Gavins were already ready and ready to go.
The moment he entered the hall, Calvin felt the presence of those familiar souls waiting neatly for his arrival.
They didn't even need to have any extra conversation. The link between consciousness had been re-established the moment Calvin entered this space.
There are no superficial greetings and etiquette in the flow of thought brought about by will, and even formed language and phrases are rare.
Because this kind of communication of soul-level information is essentially a kind of body language belonging to the soul, all acquired descriptions are clumsy and narrow-minded behaviors.
Under such efficient communication, years or even decades of strangers and their respective experiences may be fully expressed with just a shake and display of souls.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is the case with the Calvin team at the moment. They are familiar with the current situation of their comrades around them almost in an instant.
In the past five years, what injuries have been suffered, what experiences have been gained, and even what improvements have been made in martial arts...
This complex information is known to every soul in the entire team in just a few seconds. This is the charm of the thinking channel.
Calvin led them towards the assembly point at the airport on the surface of Titan.
There are another four teams here, a total of eighty Gray Knight brothers from different companies and orders have assembled here and boarded the ship.
Grand Master Oerlikon of the Third Company of Guardian Shapers will be responsible for the combat command function of this trip, while Stern, whom Calvin met in the Grand Master's office the night before, will exercise specific frontline command authority.
The Terminator team led by Calvin (actually composed of two teams, but due to the need for escorts, they operate in a unified manner without being split up every time) is composed of the heavy-duty troops responsible for the frontal assault in this operation.
They are of course the decisive force and will stay with the commander as a reserve until a decisive victory is reached.
Calvin himself was able to closely observe Captain Stern's orders during this battle, and observe and understand how the Gray Knights operated effectively in company-scale battles.
This arrangement was decided jointly with the consent of all members of the Mentor Council.
After they confirmed his will and responsibility in the last mission, the next mission was to make him clearly understand:
When he is in a position where the lives of countless people in a war zone are decided, what kind of choices and decisions should he make?
In this expensive class, Stern will use his words and deeds to tell Calvin the decisions he should make as a theater commander.
In their plan, this also happened to make up for Calvin's last qualification as a soldier transforming into an officer.
After being meticulously maintained and prayed for, the engine of the Supreme Edict is once again firing on all cylinders.
The roaring and regular engine noise can prove the joy of the machine soul, and it also makes the mechanical priests on the side feel a little better.
In the context of the prosperity of the solar system day and night, countless spaceships and warships shuttle through the galaxy every moment, making their own contributions to the operation of the entire empire center.
Against the background of these ships, the figure of the Supreme Decree leaving and sailing all the way to Manzeville Point did not attract anyone's attention at all.
The process of the spacecraft entering subspace was smooth and quiet under the guidance of the navigator.
After thoroughly confirming that she had entered the scheduled channel, Ms. Vivian, who had been standing in the pilot's seat on the bridge, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned back to the highest point of the bridge to indicate that the current process was going smoothly.
Grand Master Oerlikon, who was sitting on the highest command seat, also responded to this loyal lady with a look of respect.
Since he does not belong to the command line, Calvin rarely has to devote his energy to this complicated process.
After asking for instructions from his immediate superior, Captain Stern, he walked off the command platform and walked towards the living area belonging to the Gray Knights.
The journey has just begun, and Calvin feels that in addition to daily training, he has enough time to understand the background information of the target area.
In his opinion, this is the basic quality of a soldier.
In this kind of long-distance subspace travel with a single jump distance of more than 5,000 light-years, time has become a burden that must be handled accurately.
He followed the navigation information downloaded on the ship by the Thinker system on his body, and walked all the way to the rear of the battleship. Along the way, because the confidentiality level of the units involved was getting higher and higher, the number of crew members who could be seen in the channel was getting higher and higher.
Come less and less.
After passing through a heavy gate guarded by a separate machine spirit, he finally arrived at the exclusive storage place of knowledge in this space city.
And this treasure trove of knowledge that theoretically belongs only to the Gray Knights lives up to the taboo name it carries, and it greatly increases Calvin's knowledge in terms of security and defense.
It is unknown how the original Gray Knights communicated with the Mechanic-Priest responsible for designing this battleship, but what can be seen is that after comprehensively considering the needs of the Gray Knights and certain possible application scenarios, this should have been
The palace carrying sacred knowledge was transformed by the priests of Mars into a super-large "disposable garbage recycling device."
A huge spherical building floating in a huge spherical space with a diameter of more than 100 meters.
This was the first scene Calvin saw after entering the library door.
The spherical building is where the library itself is located, and the stable force field generators around it allow the entire library to float quietly in the center of the space.
At Calvin's feet, a metal ladder suspended between the wall behind him and the sphere was the only way to enter the library.
Calvin held on to the railing at hand and looked up and down. Unsurprisingly, he saw at least a plurality of anti-ship-level melta weapons above, as well as an irregular shape on the edge of the ship for dropping large supplies at the end of the field of view below.
hatch.
"So who is this thing for? If you are so worried, why not just ban its use?" Calvin muttered to himself.
While thinking about the details in his eyes, he walked on the escalator towards the interior of the library.
The Gray Knight's own purity never needs to be questioned, so there is no need to go to such trouble if it is just the Gray Knight.
Then transform a facility like the library into this level of defense, with a clear goal of skipping the possibility of rescue at the beginning and directly choosing to destroy it on the spot:
Its target user group is not the Gray Knights, but some easily polluted people who, in the eyes of the Gray Knights, are extremely dangerous and have to be accommodated, such as...
"Good day, distinguished arbiter, Yuri Alexey Gagarin, trainee judge of the Demonic Tribunal, salutes you."
A young and emotional voice came from in front of Calvin. Calvin raised his head and saw the other person's young body making an eagle salute to him.
"Good day, agent of the Emperor's will. No need to be formal, please feel free to do it." Calvin responded.
He gently raised his right hand to stop the other party's desire to communicate further, and then walked towards the area of interest.
Calvin doesn't like voices that are too emotional, because he understands that the career he is in cannot be accomplished by passion alone.
Souls that rely too much on passion always have a small proportion of rationality, and their love and loyalty always disappear as without warning as they came.
Generally speaking, in Calvin's eyes, this kind of person can be worked with but cannot be trusted.
Therefore, although he did not understand how the other party came to him through step-by-step screening, it did not delay his natural attitude of keeping away from him.
There is still a long way to go, and Calvin is not a headstrong person.
In his opinion, he has enough time to learn what he wants to know, and at the same time, he also gives the other party enough time to prove his reliability, or vice versa.
