Chapter 691: The prophecy is wrong?
Suzhenghao, book library.
"A demon vessel, or demon host, is a human being that has a demon or part of a demon's power and existence parasitized in their body. This parasitism is like a malignant tumor, which will continue to grow in power and influence until it completely devours the unfortunate host. Then, in the midst of pain, terror, and shattered dreams, the demon is born in the material world."
After Danzhuer finished reading, he looked up at Zhang Yuning.
According to the description in the book.
The woman in front of me is a demon container.
"Uh-huh, go on."
Zhang Yuning was lying on the velvet sofa, tapping the armrest with her white fingers to signal Danzhuer to continue reading. Her long and sharp black nails shone with a glossy and deep reflection under the light, giving her an extraordinarily charming aura.
"From infection to the demon breaking free from the physical shackles of the container, this gestation process is a long battle of wills. In this process, the demon's nature will gradually devour the nature of the human container. In the end, the demon will destroy the host's will, except for a tiny bit of remaining consciousness that may scream silently in endless pain, there will be nothing left that belongs to humans."
Tengyur finished reading the rest of the paragraph.
Then he closed the "Compendium of Witchcraft" in his hand.
"These are the records in the Codex of Witchcraft?"
Zhang Yuning raised her head and asked calmly:
"The fate of all demon hosts is to be possessed by another body?"
"Yes."
Danzhuer nodded and said:
"However, according to the research in Kronochet Anatomy and Vivisection Anthology, this conclusion is not absolute. There are still many humans who can fight against the corruption of Chaos through strong willpower and mental strength, and even enslave the demons. But such examples are still rare after all. Compared with demons, what humans lack is not spirit and will - but time. As time goes by, even the most powerful humans will become old, weak and tired, but demons will not."
"Ah."
Zhang Yuning smiled without comment.
The think tank director's words seemed to be comforting but not entirely.
The library of the Rectification contains many heretical banned books that were strictly ordered to be destroyed by the Empire, especially those about "Demonology". Zhang Yuning is a reincarnation, and she was given proficiency in Low Gothic and High Gothic by the reincarnation world. However, many contents in the "Witchcraft Codex" are not recorded in the official language of the Empire, but in the local dialects of certain planets. Therefore, she asked the most knowledgeable think tank curator of the entire regiment to interpret this ancient dark book for her.
But what Tenjur didn't know was.
Zhang Yuning doesn't need comfort.
As early as when she decided to gain powerful strength in this way, she was mentally prepared to pay any price for it and never had the slightest regret.
"Did you hear that, idiot?"
Zhang Yuning turned around and looked at the black-haired, red-skinned, long-legged, busty witch who was sitting on the floor leaning against the sofa. She grabbed the chain in her hand and pulled it up. The black rivet collar at the end of the chain forced the other party to raise her chin. She smiled and asked:
"Sooner or later, your consciousness will be taken over by the demonic power in your body. Are you scared? Do you regret it?"
"You don't regret it, so why should I regret it?"
Sugawara Mao sat on the floor with disheveled clothes, revealing a large area of red, delicate and smooth skin. Her shoulder was leaning against the side of the sofa. She bit a finger and laughed evilly:
"Besides, this book describes the demons in the Warhammer 40K universe, not the demons in the DC Extended Universe. It may not be correct, so why should I be afraid? Even if everything in the book is true, it is better to be reckless and reckless than to live a life of weakness and linger like a maggot. Don't you think so too?"
"You know this again? You know shit."
Zhang Yuning stood up from the sofa and swung the thin iron chain again, signaling Sugawara Maou on the floor to get up. The Wraith Queen dragged the red-skinned witch towards the cabin door. When she walked out of the library, she paused for a moment, tilted her head and said lightly:
"Thank you for your explanation, Tangyur Think Tank Director. That's all for today. I'll come back at about the same time tomorrow."
"Okay, ma'am."
The think tank director sitting on the chair nodded.
……
Correction, in the passage.
Zhang Yuning ordered Sugawara Mao to cancel Shabak's transformation form, and she also withdrew from the transformation form of the Seven Deadly Sins. The two of them returned to their mortal women's appearance and walked in the corridor of the battleship - except that they still held the thin iron chain in their hands.
Sugawara Mao didn't care.
After long-term training by Zhang Yuning.
She has completely lost her shame.
After leaving the library, the two did not return to the prison in the lower deck, but went to the training cage on the upper deck.
During this period, the entire Legion fleet was dormant in this meteorite field. In addition to preparing for battle, they were also collecting as much intelligence as possible. From time to time, frigates and destroyers were sent out for small-scale reconnaissance, and the astropaths in the choir room were also listening carefully to the various psychic echoes coming from the subspace.
The two demon hosts also need to prepare for war, and they may be sent to the battlefield later depending on the actual battlefield situation.
Zhang Yuning and Sugawara Mao came to the training cage. The specially designed armored doors and weapon mechanisms opened layer by layer, revealing a man in casual clothes, barefoot, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in the center of the cage - Qingshan Khan had been meditating and waiting here for a long time.
He slowly opened his eyes.
There seemed to be a gleam of light in his eyes, which then disappeared.
"coming?"
Fu Qinghai stood up slowly and said.
"Well, it's late, let's get started."
Zhang Yuning nodded and started to change her clothes.
After observation, Fu Qinghai decided to teach the two demon hosts some basic fighting skills to prevent them from continuing to fight using physical instincts and brute force.
Because of the limitation of joint flexibility in power armor, few Space Marines would learn hand-to-hand combat, and most Space Marines only know how to fight with weapons in close combat. The Blue Shell Power Armor has a more sophisticated and complex joint structure, which allows Fu Qinghai to occasionally use his hand-to-hand combat skills, which he learned from old man Hu Xian.
But for the two demon hosts, their invulnerable and tough bodies are their most powerful weapons, so Fu Qinghai personally teaches them hand-to-hand combat techniques.
Fu Qinghai is Zhang Yuning's boyfriend. Fu Qinghai knows his woman very well. She has never been the kind of girl who likes sports. She lacks even sports talent, let alone fighting talent. Fu Qinghai does not expect Zhang Yuning to be as gifted and progress as Jiang Yixia. He just hopes that she can learn some basic fighting knowledge in a short time.
"Come on, I'll teach you how to punch first."
Fu Qinghai stood behind Zhang Yuning and began to teach her step by step. Zhang Yuning changed into a pure black tight dress, outlining her graceful and tall curves. The faint body fragrance that floated under his nose, which he could never get tired of smelling, made Fu Qinghai feel a little itchy, and he had to recite the Jedi creed three times in his heart, "Do not indulge in lust, be calm and clear-minded" to restrain his desire.
“When making a fist, you can choose to make an empty fist or a half-clenched fist, and then clench and lock the wrist joint when you are about to hit the enemy.”
Fu Qinghai continued to teach patiently.
"Ok."
Zhang Yuning also did as she was told.
Sugawara Mao stood nearby and watched with envy.
She also wanted Fu Qinghai's hands-on teaching and guidance.
But for now she is only qualified to watch.
Compared to Jiang Yixia, who was born with a talent for martial arts, Zhang Yuning had no talent, but at least her attitude towards learning was very positive. As the teaching progressed, Fu Qinghai began to try to guide Zhang Yuning's unique fighting ideas.
"You can try to use the extra limbs you gain after activating the transformation form, including the horns on your head. This can often give you unexpected results in battle."
Fu Qinghai reminded from the side.
Fu Qinghai is a resultist and pragmatist. His core fighting philosophy is to use all possible means to achieve victory. Anything can be a weapon and any cunning strategy is allowed.
"I understand."
Zhang Yuning turned her head and looked at her shoulder blades.
After Zhang Yuning transformed, she gained a pair of small bat wings, and after Sugawara Mao transformed, she gained a barbed arrow tail. According to Fu Qinghai's usual combat philosophy, these things can assist in combat or be used directly as weapons.
"laugh--"
Just then, the hatch of the training cage opened.
Secretary Qing Ming walked in quickly and said:
"Master, the Chapter Masters request an emergency meeting."
"Huh? What happened?"
Fu Qinghai looked up in confusion.
……
The Captain's room on the ship.
Fu Qinghai sat behind his desk.
In front of him were holographic projections of the six Chapter Masters.
"Qingshan, there's something wrong with your intelligence... I mean, the prophecy you described did not come true."
The Marauder Chapter Master said with a serious look.
"Yes, your fortune teller is wrong, Aoyama."
The Berserker Chapter Master also spoke in agreement.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Fu Qinghai frowned and asked in confusion.
From the beginning of the major events of the plot line until now, he has only used Blindsight to predict twice. One was to determine the situation of the Imperial Fists Chapter, and the other was to determine the attack target of the Battle Moon. Both predictions were accurate. After that, the prophecy was never used again. Fu Qinghai made decisions based on his memory of the original plot. How could there be a "wrong prediction"?
"Our astropaths have received a global astropathic broadcast - Admiral Lanson, the Supreme Lord of the Empire, has returned victoriously after destroying the Ork battle moon. This information is echoing throughout the subspace of the Solar Segmentum. Your prediction is wrong. The Ork invasion of Terra's battle moon has been defeated!"
The Marauder Chapter Master said in a deep voice.
At this moment, the hatch opened and the chief astropath of the Rectification, Xia Long Frospin, hurried in. She just heard what the Marauder Chapter Master said. She stopped and nodded to Fu Qinghai who was sitting behind the desk, indicating that she had also received the same astropathic broadcast message.
“Yes, we received the information as well.”
The Berserker Chapter Leader said with a look of pain on his face:
"It's meaningless for us to stop here and wait. Terra doesn't need our protection. Our behavior will be hard to explain once we are discovered. We will be like a group of clowns."
"You shouldn't say that."
Upon hearing this, Mandulatu immediately retorted:
"We have at least defeated an Ork battle moon, successfully defended tens of billions of people on the Endin hive world from being slaughtered and enslaved, and rescued human captives on the battle moon. This Legion assembly is meaningful, and the activation of the Golden Horde Agreement is meaningful. The only unexpected thing is that Terra's defense force is not as weak as we thought."
"Just consider it a wasted trip."
Chapter Master Zebu of the Solar Eagles agrees:
"We just need to return to our respective stations."
The chapter leaders discussed and expressed their opinions.
But Fu Qinghai fell into deep thought.
The Empire's Supreme Lord Admiral Lanson destroyed the Orc Battle Moon and returned victoriously?
This news cannot be false.
Even if it is a piece of false news or false military intelligence, there is no need to publicize it throughout the Solar Star Region.
The specific battle situation and outcome are not very clear, but the Imperial Navy should have indeed won a victory.
but……
Fu Qinghai suddenly raised his head.
"Do not."
Fu Qinghai spoke in a deep voice with sharp eyes.
All the Chapter Masters fell silent.
They all turned to look in his direction.
Fu Qinghai glanced at everyone and said slowly:
"We will not disband and return to our respective bases. On the contrary, we will continue to prepare for war and intensify our preparations. I have a strong feeling that war is coming soon."
The chapter leaders were stunned upon hearing this.
Fu Qinghai didn't wait for them to reflect on this decision.
Then he spoke again:
"I'm going to go to Terra myself to see what's going on there and whether it's consistent with what I expected. You guys stay here and continue preparing for the battle, I'll go alone."
After saying this, without waiting for the captains to react, Fu Qinghai directly turned off the holographic projection, stood up and ordered:
"Qingming, my armor."
"Okay, master."
The robot secretary simply turned and left.
Wait until all holographic projections are turned off.
Xia Long then revealed another piece of news:
"Khan, there is another message. It is not a global broadcast, but an encrypted message from the cruiser Fiery Horse. All the sisters of silence you sent out have returned."
"Oh?"
Fu Qinghai was overjoyed when he heard this.
I'm really sleepy and I give you a pillow.
"Where are they? Come and join them immediately."
