Chapter 289 Subsequent Impact, Face and Substance

The battle on Verax has ended, but the impact of this battle on the Chaos side is quite huge, which is something Calvin had never expected.

The death of a champion of the evil god in the mortal world is obviously not an ordinary thing.

This iconic figure itself is not important, but his position has a special role in theology.

It sounds complicated, but if we explain it based on Calvin's religious theory in his previous life, then the chosen one is the messenger of God.

And the only chosen one is a savior.

He must practice the way of God on the "earth" and correspond to the gods in the Supreme Heaven.

The mortal chosen gods and the gods in the Supreme Heaven, plus the demons wandering in reality and the warp, the three together constitute the trinity of the Warhammer version, forming the basic cycle of the spread of faith and authority.

The gods send down power and wisdom, the chosen ones walk and spread in the mortal world, the servants work hard for them, morality is manifested, and theocracy is established.

This is a very stable positive cycle, because the weakest chosen one among them should also be the most outstanding among mortals.

This is an effective mechanism that has been verified countless times. Under the endless desire of the gods for faith, this mechanism has been implemented countless times.

But now the problem is that Typhons, as the chosen god of the Lord of Life and Death, and one of the only four chosen gods on the Chaos side in the entire real universe, is dead. (Abaddon is an exception. His being chosen by the four gods is more of a curse than a blessing.)

He died of his own ambition and an inexplicable greed.

His death has no meaning. It is just an invasion of reality on a whim.

His death did not cause any permanent impact on reality, and even blocked the actions of the Death Guard.

There is a structural lack of the spread of the Lord of Life's faith in reality, and the evil god's perception and interference in reality has naturally decreased by a huge margin.

Before the new chosen god takes office, the entire Storm Star Region and even the Nurgle forces in the entire Empire will fall into a long silence.

These are the dual effects of Typhons' death on the Empire and Chaos, and these effects are like seeds that need time to brew and slowly appear.

A week later, in the Storm Star Region, the Eleusis Star Region, and the Eleusis Galaxy.

With the energy surge on the Manzeville Point, the Angel of Punishment and the Interstellar Labyrinth, which jumped out of the subspace, finally arrived at the agreed meeting place with the Grand Fleet.

The size of the Grand Fleet was different from when Calvin left. The number of main battleships suddenly dropped from 18 to 7.

This was because the twelve mechanical arks that occupied most of the fleet had already arrived at their destination.

When leaving the cold veil of the Bishop World and arriving at the next stop, the Saga Forge World, these mechanical arks said goodbye to the escorting Imperial Navy and left the fleet sequence.

But the number of fleets did not decrease absolutely, but increased on the contrary.

Calvin was slightly surprised to find that a black ship belonging to the Storm Star Region Inquisition quietly appeared in the list of auxiliary ships of his fleet.

This was because as the team members around him became fixed and the work ability orientation became clearer, it began to bring higher requirements to personnel work in the opposite direction.

In this context, things in all directions began to be filled by professionals in their respective fields.

The cruiser-class black ship of the Inquisition, the Dark Meteor, was specially set up to connect with the work of the Storm Star Region under such a background.

It needs to receive information and intelligence provided by various units in the entire star region, and after preliminary summary and judgment, it will be handed over to senior members to make corresponding decisions, and then summarized in front of Calvin to make the final decision.

It is precisely because it is a ship positioned as an auxiliary ship that most of the weapon space of this black ship has been modified and its firepower is extremely weak, so it can only be classified as an auxiliary ship.

Calvin was being flooded by the information channel opened by the Inquisition at this time;

At this time, he just realized how superficial his previous understanding of this organization was.

This huge organization, which is based on a skeptical spirit and an independent spirit, has a complexity of rights and powers that is far from being described by the superficial seats, orders, and factions;

And the rules of the huge and special group of Inquisitors are far from being something that can be clearly stated with a piece of appointment.

The victory of the Battle of Orpheus can only be regarded as a qualified debut in front of these night watchmen of the human empire.

In his subsequent work, he cleansed the three major star regions at all costs, and the determination and will he showed made these inquisitors have a preliminary recognition of him;

The identity of the Grey Knight was his second answer sheet. The fact that the war group had never fallen for thousands of years made the inquisitors believe in Calvin's loyalty and purity.

The post-war planning of Layak and Hassan was his last answer sheet. His arrangement of the internal rules of the star region and his familiarity with personnel finally convinced the inquisitors of the Storm Star Region from the bottom of their hearts.

They needed a leader who was decisive enough, but they needed a pragmatic helmsman.

It was not until this time that he, the so-called Grand Inquisitor, turned from a large vase into a real responsible person.

The real power he held was not truly accepted and connected by the local system until this time.

This was something that the veterans in the war group knew, but they could not help him. They could not even remind him.

Because these mortals' loyalty is limited to the Emperor, and their job is to doubt everything.

No one can really suppress their will with power, and no one can obtain their obedience without their approval.

But fortunately, he passed this test, and fortunately, his ideas and abilities can be accepted by the mainstream consciousness of the Inquisition.

Calvin found that his surroundings began to become lively:

Every time the fleet jumped out of the warp for repairs, there would be more unfamiliar but elite and capable faces on his ship.

They came from various councils in local star regions, and they were the inquisitors there, sending their most promising newcomers here to serve him.

The information Calvin could receive became more and more extensive and bizarre.

The local channels and secret information channels that he could connect to in his work in the Inquisition became more and more as time went by:

Every time he connected with local forces, countless secret intelligence stations appeared on his private list.

Various high-speed updated intelligence information also filled a corner of his communication channel.

He was originally troubled by these tasks a few days ago, because the sorting and analysis of these intelligence was no longer a scope that one person could design, and he could not share these secrets with the imperial guards.

But after arriving in Eleusis, he found that the supporting personnel and supporting black ships were already in place, just waiting for his arrival.

A large number of elite judges gathered in a short time.

They spontaneously formed a complete team in the context of mutual unfamiliarity;

Based on the silent tacit understanding of internal discipline, they submitted a list of candidates for several team leaders to Calvin.

And when these leaders were established, the information authority in Calvin's hands was taken over as soon as the team started working.

From then on, there was no invalid data on his desk, such as the physical fitness data of a certain governor, his favorite posture, etc.

All unnecessary intelligence was effectively stored and backed up under the isolation and shielding of the professional team.

And some key intelligence and information were also carefully handed over to Calvin after preliminary analysis and summary.

Calvin felt that his work efficiency was significantly improved, because with the guidance of these professionals, he no longer needed to look for conventions and allusions from past documents, nor did he need to repeatedly and thoroughly understand something excessively.

He knew that this was a manifestation of trust in his ability, and as the price of this trust:

When the assigned black ship arrived, some of the most core and darkest secret intelligence in the Tribunal began to appear on Calvin's desk.

Update, the quality has been unstable recently, so I would rather have nothing than something sloppy... Sorry, I've disappointed everyone.
