Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 92: The Sacred Relic of Nottingham
The situation was not as bad as Chen Xi had expected, because Sister Silent had indeed seen through his true nature, but what she saw was a ball of golden energy wrapped around a chess piece, and this ball of energy was shaped into the image of the chess piece used by Chen Xi.

Obviously, this is the power of the Emperor.

"This isn't a power originating from the Warp, nor is it a technological artifact. The Void Force Field has no effect on it." Sister Silent's expression was strange as she performed this sign language, one filled with excitement yet also with resentment. "I have no intention of inquiring into your origins. I will provide you with the best assistance I can. After ten thousand years, that person still hasn't forgotten his left claw."

Chen Xi didn't dare to respond to the words of the Silent Sister, but he understood what she was saying.

During the Great Crusade, the Imperial Aquila was the symbol of the Emperor himself. The Aquila had two claws, one for the Order of the Guardians and the other for the Order of the Demon Slayers.

There is no doubt that from the perspective of this elder sister who can see through the nature of the old man Huang, Chen Xi's little secret is not a secret at all.

But the Sisters of Silence are trustworthy. Without mentioning their untouchable nature, there is no such thing as corruption. The fact that they have never betrayed the empire even after being forgotten for ten thousand years is enough for people to maintain enough trust in them.

"You mean your soul? I'm sorry, I can't detect your soul from the form you are currently using. Maybe there is something on that chess piece, but it is wrapped in golden energy and I can't see through it." Chen Xi also asked about the soul, but Sister Silent said that she did not see his soul.

This made Chen Xi feel a lot more at ease. Although the old man Huang was really not a human being when he behaved badly, Chen Xi didn't want to personally taste what the cesspool of Warhammer was like unless it was necessary.

And if your soul and body are not here, then you can be more relaxed about many things in this world.

Back in the real world, Chen Xi told his three friends about the Sister of Silence.

"The Sister of Silence can see through our true nature, and she told you that we are a ball of golden energy enveloping a chess piece?" After listening to Chen Xi's retelling, Guterres stroked his chin and fell into deep thought. After a long pause, he asked Chen Xi, "How credible do you think this is?"

"I don't know. At least we have no way to verify this statement at the moment, right?" Chen Xi didn't really care about this matter. After all, he had chosen to travel through the Warhammer world, so it was really unnecessary to think so much.

Guterres thought about it and nodded: "Yeah, since we're here to eat this shit, we don't care how we eat it."

"Rather than that, let's discuss inviting other people." Chen Xi turned to look at Mai Mai and Mu Se and asked them, "Guterres and I are planning to invite 32. Who else do you think would be suitable?"

"Uh, there aren't many people free in the group recently, right?" Mai Mai thought about it and had the impression that most of the group members were busy, either at work or busy with other things. It was basically difficult for them to stay in 40k for a long time like them.

"We don't need to stay there for long. What we need now is manpower. They can travel over and create a chess piece, then automatically host and hang up." Chen Xi had only recently thought of this operation mode. "When I was hanging up before, my chess piece was still very competent as a governor. It basically followed my plan and there were no problems."

"There's really nothing wrong with the idle mode, but is it really okay to idle for a long time?" Dusk also expressed curiosity and concern about this.

"So far, I haven't had any issues with long periods of AFK, but that doesn't mean there aren't any problems at all. So I still have to check it occasionally. AFK mode is only suitable for emergencies." Guterres thought for a moment and offered his opinion: "After all, our territory in 40k isn't completely safe yet. If something goes wrong and your character dies, no one knows about it. That's the worst part."

The issue raised by Guterres was one everyone must address. After all, they weren't playing a game. There was no "restart, hero" option for death, and no save game to undo a move. "I'm afraid we can't solve this problem right now. Unless we're using only the original's pieces, there's no guarantee we won't die," Chen Xi could only shake his head.

In the world of Warhammer 40k, no one dares to say that they will never die, not even the Primarch.

Unless they can get the Emperor's chess piece, but that is too old and out of print, unless they can go to Nottingham to get that ancient holy relic.

"The Primarch requires Level VII authority, and only people like you who play Commander Mode can use it, Chen Xi. We who play Adventure Mode can't even use it." Mai Mai couldn't help but envy Chen Xi when he said this.

Although it cannot be used now, it can still be used. Unlike them, when they open the adventure mode, they are destined to have no chance to see the original body.

But relatively speaking, the adventure mode is not without its advantages. For example, after reaching level III, Guterres found that he could exchange for a kill team, that is, equip himself with a team of followers from the same camp.

These followers are different from Chen Xi's model where they can be used by simply investing a team of chess pieces. They are of the type that can be trained and upgraded.

Although their number is limited to one team, they can be upgraded, trained, transformed and equipped with more powerful equipment.

Take Guterres as an example. If he redeems a kill team, he will get a team of Space Marine reconnaissance recruits equipped with basic equipment. Guterres can train and cultivate this team of recruits and upgrade them to become official Space Marines.

When Dora Kaur takes out the Primaris Space Marines, he can also take this team of attendants to undergo Primaris transformation surgery and upgrade them into Primaris Space Marines.

Not only that, these cans can also be transferred to other positions. For example, Guterres can let someone in a team of entourage become a pharmacist, think tank or technical sergeant.

After accumulating enough experience, they will become veterans and can replace equipment such as Terminators, Centurions and Dreadnoughts.

Of course, once you put it into the dreadnought, you can’t take it out, so you can only replace it with another dreadnought.

This is completely different from Chen Xi's chess pieces. Although the chess pieces he cast look no different from real people, their equipment and professions cannot be changed.
