Warhammer 40K: Veterans Surge Like a Torrent, Heretics Beg for the End Chapter 58 58 God-Emperor: Use it to death if it's useful
"Take this for the gate!"
"Take this for the gate!!"
Bruno clenched his sandbag-sized fist and punched the governor's bloated stomach, one blow after another.
It was fortunate that the governor had undergone life-extension surgery and had so cybernetic enhancents, otherwise he would have been pounded into pulp by Bruno by now.
Despite the bruises covering his body, the governor only gritted his teeth, glaring at Bruno with hateful eyes.
To be precise, he was staring at Sith, who was waiting silently behind Bruno.
Seeing that the governor remained stubborn, Bruno beca completely enraged. Just as he was about to throw another punch, Sith finally raised his hand to stop him.
"Enough, ignore him."
Sith spoke, and no matter how annoyed Bruno was with the governor, he had to pull his hand back.
He then looked at Sith, who did not respond to the governor's hateful and sowhat manic gaze, instead walking directly to the side.
There was a gate, and as Ana retracted her auxiliary chanical arm, the gate that the governor had locked shut finally began to open slowly as power was restored.
As sunlight shone inside, in the center of the spacious and magnificent hall, in the middle of a circular staircase, a woman whose eyes had been removed was floating in mid-air. Around her were nurous hollow stone pillars, and inside them were trembling human bodies wrapped in layers of bandages.
The quiet mystery of the hall and the bound bodies in the stone pillars created a contrast between holiness and evil.
Yet, this hall of contrasts supported the Empire's communication across the entire galaxy single-handedly.
The eyeless woman in the center was an Astropath, and the terrified living people in the surrounding stone pillars were psychic batteries.
And this hall was the Astropathic Choir!
"I don't know why the governor wanted to lock down the Astropathic Choir, but he is just a noble after all. I easily bypassed the lock using my Adeptus chanicus clearance."
Ana lifted her head with a hint of pride. Perhaps because she had received little indoctrination from Adeptus chanicus Tech-Priests, Ana, who had been following Sith, would often display normal human emotions.
Sith nodded, acknowledging Ana, and then ignored the governor, whose expression had shifted, walking straight inside.
Seeing Sith's approval, Ana's face lit up with happiness. She quickly took a few steps forward and began to adjust the control panel of the Astropathic Choir:
"Give a mont, and I can broadcast the planetary communication."
While Ana was busy working at the console, Sith looked around the hall.
Although a servitor skull was essentially a human skull stuffed with electronic equipnt, compared to using living people as batteries, Sith felt that a servitor skull was actually sowhat more humane.
At this mont, only Sith and Ana were inside the Astropathic Choir, while Bruno and the bound governor were outside the door.
Watching Ana's rapid typing, the expression on the governor's face did not turn to fear, but gradually beca manic... even expectant.
Finally, after Sith had walked around the hall and returned to the console, Ana suddenly looked up, her face full of surprise as she prepared to speak.
But the sudden noise flooding into the Astropathic Choir drowned out Ana's surprise.
"They're gone! Our planet's governor and the Ecclesiarchy Priest have already left! They didn't even leave the army for us!"
"The Empire has abandoned us! They have left us to face the slaughter by the Octarius aliens alone!"
"SOS... aliens have broken through... where... is the Imperial army?!"
"We declare independence, I repeat, we officially declare our separation from the Empire!"
Dense, desperate calls from various worlds were being broadcast through the speakers, covering the entire sector.
Almost every transmission was filled with despair, hatred, anger, and other emotions.
