Warhammer: Black Emperor

Chapter 774 The High Watcher

Boom!

The colorful light that erupted from the psionic explosion exploded in Tezuka Sasebo's eyes.

At the same time, he heard the think tank member Okafor beside him mutter "nearsighted" and throw out a brown scroll.

[Nearsighted?] Before Tezuka Sasebo could even voice his doubts, he suddenly felt a violent tremor beneath his feet.

Amidst the thunderous roar, the crystal path before us burst into a dazzling light.

The winding road surface straightened up like a giant python turning over, stretching and extending in the air.

“A visionary who once walked the path of craftsmen.” “Professor Scroll” Okafor’s mysterious eyes reappeared as he spoke, his face pale.

Sasebo Tezuka recalls the information issued by the Father of Genesis, stating that the Visionaries were psionic experts among the Eldar of the Ark, referring to the Eldar who walked the path of prophecy.

The Eldar's powerful psychic abilities come with inherent risks when drawing upon their strength.

All activities related to psychic powers were ritualized and used with restraint.

The war shaman they had just encountered used psionic magic in this way, focusing on strengthening the tribe warriors and amplifying their combat power.

But the Visionaries were different; they actively drew upon the power of the warp and used powerful psionic spells.

The practitioners of the Prophet's Way are the most dangerous of all the Eldar's paths, so much so that there are very few visionaries on each Ark.

All those who embark on the path of prophecy will have walked at least one other path, and usually several.

No Eldar would be foolish enough to try to control the power of the warp before they can even control themselves.

Mag Silas is quite different; they are known for their madness among the Eldar, and more of them choose the path of the prophet, enjoying the potential unleashed by their psychic talents.

After a brief moment of reflection, Tezuka Sasebo realized that the visionary ahead had once walked the path of the craftsman.

His refined psychic powers created a symphony of physical forms and motion.

A chill suddenly ran through Sasebo Tezuka, and he immediately activated the sound channel, shouting, "Dodge!"

As he shouted a warning, the mountain collapsed.

Sasebo Tezuka jumped behind.

Shadows fell.

Sasebo Tezuka despairingly discovered that he was still shrouded in the mountain peak, with no possibility of escape.

My lord, I have broken my oath.

I did not die beside you.

However, I still remain loyal to my father...
As he was caught between guilt and honor, a strong figure suddenly flashed in his eyes.

[Lord Per! ]
Lord Per Koscielny of the Eleventh Legion landed with his obsidian eyes fixed on the Visionary, who was surrounded by shimmering light.

He raised his hands, and the dazzling psychic light tore through the heavens and earth, gathering on the mountain he had created.

The spiritual energy of the "Corrupted Baron" surged forth, and the Visionary's hand suddenly slipped.

The blinding psionic light twisted like an electric dragon.

The mountain peaks rumbled and tilted at an angle.

The skew is getting bigger and bigger.

The visionary's ideas were "distorted".

Rumble!
The crystal dome shattered, and glittering fragments fell in a flurry.

The crystal paths collapsed and were crushed into the ground.

The mountain peak crashed inside the crystal gate, not in the dock area.

The seasoned briber raised his explosive gun and pulled the trigger.

"I'll send you a bomb."

boom!
Amidst the roar, the powerful psychic shield that the Visionary had condensed shattered.

The "Corrupted Baron" continued his stride forward without stopping.

Overflowing with spirituality, circles appeared beneath their feet, rapidly closing the distance between them and the visionary.

As the visionary bent down, his arms slid gracefully behind him.

Whoosh...

On the other side of the crashing mountain peak, crystal roses flew up from the flower bushes.

The Visionary launched his arms forward, sending countless crystal roses swirling and shooting towards him. A dazzling light rose from the "Corrupted Baron's" body, condensing into invisible mirrors that swirled around him.

Crystal roses collided with the shimmering "multi-dimensional prism," deflecting and scattering.

In an instant, the "Corrupted Baron" stepped onto the generated "geometric" rings and arrived in front of the Visionary.

The "Corrupted Baron" twisted his waist and back, his muscles bulging, and his arms swung, his fists slamming into the Visionary like cannonballs.

boom!
A bloody hole exploded in the visionary's body.

As Per kills the Visionary and the Shadow of Order repels the enemy forces counterattacking the docks, the Crystal Gate appears on the other side.

Dakar Belus, clad in black armor, walks through the crystal gate.

He is not the shadow of order, but the supreme guardian of the "Holy Blood Angels".

The Watchers are the guardians of the "Blood Angels." They are strict mentors to young monks, instructors on the battlefield, and experienced veterans who share their knowledge with their brethren.

They are responsible for maintaining the cohesion of the nearly 100,000 warriors in the entire legion, a role similar to that of priests in other legions.

Berus's status is similar to that of Eribas, the chief priest of the "Word-Bearers," and Pat, the chief priest of the "Shadow of Order."

His cold, merciless gaze, emanating from his black skull helmet, sent chills down the spines of the surrounding Blood Angels, whose dark skin was devoid of any compassion.

Berlus looked toward the front of the line, where a veteran assault soldier raised his heavy-explosive pistol and fired a series of large-caliber bullets.

Boom boom boom...

One by one, the Storm Avengers were blasted into fiery fireballs.

The barrage of star darts whistled and flew, tearing apart the veteran cultivator and the entire front-line squad.

Blood rained down, staining the ground red.

Amidst the flames, the vengeful and ferocious warriors stood firm.

The visionary who wields biochemical power uses psychic energy to repair the body of a ferocious avenger.

Berlus's gaze was cold as he stared at the alien in the crowd.

It was because of his existence that the Holy Blood Angels became entangled.

The bloody battle surrounding the Crystal Gate has claimed the lives of over four hundred fellow fighters.

“I know all of you,” Berlus said loudly.

“The angel is behind us, watching over us, and ahead lies our glory.”

"Follow in my footsteps!"

Belus raised the priest's scepter, and like many legions, the Watchers, though still adhering to tradition, accepted the weapons advocated by the Word Bearers.

He pressed the activation rune, and the Force Field Scepter rose up, shining brightly.

"For Saint Gilles and the Emperor!" the Blood Angels roared in unison, following the High Watcher into the enemy ranks.

Storm Avengers unleashed Kane's fury, thousands of monomolecular discs tearing through the crimson armor and shredding the Holy Blood Angel to pieces.

Berus strode past his fallen brothers-in-arms, brandishing his priest's staff.

boom!
The limbs torn apart in the exploding blood mist were beyond the alien's ability to repair.

Berlus took the lead, his priest's scepter tumbling and flying.

A series of explosions rang out as one ferocious avenger after another was torn apart.

The visionary turned his gaze and suddenly raised his hand.

Berlusconi's blood boiled and his muscles bulged.

The gushing blood mist stained the black armor of the Supreme Watcher.

Berlusconi's movements were icy, and his gaze remained sharp, his actions showing no sign of slowing down.

The priest's scepter fell.

boom!
The tearing force of the decomposing force field and the healing force of flesh and blood were constantly pulling each other apart.

boom!
Berlus raised his archaeological pistol, and the flashing beam shot into the writhing flesh.

He brandished his scepter, and his veins burst.

boom!
As the Visionary's body exploded, Belus knelt on one knee in agony, his black armor stained with blood.
