Chapter 85 Change and Awakening
Five years!
Five whole years! Five years later and another five years...well, sorry, it's a conspiracy.
The last impression Calvin had before he fell asleep was the action of the pharmacist brother raising his hand to turn off the light and the dark medical cabin he was in.
After that he fell into a long sleep.
His soul needs to further adjust itself to its newfound authority during this hibernation.
When the adjustment of the soul approaches perfection, it is also the beginning of a chain-reaction adjustment of the body to adapt to the changes in his soul.
This continuous systematic adjustment took Calvin five years.
It took three years for the soul and two years for the body:
During the first year, Calvin's soul struggled to adapt to and use the new authority.
The influence of authority on the soul is profound and far-reaching. On this lonely road with no known predecessors except the gods, Calvin had no experience to draw from.
Calvin had too many unknowns and confusions about this path. And the only knowledge about this path that he can clearly know at present is:
This is a road of sublimation in which the soul ascends upward and its quality changes into steps and signs.
And an indispensable basic step on this path is authority.
Using authority as a reference, slowly adjust the sublimated divine soul in a direction that is more consistent with authority.
And whenever the power of an authority is completely grasped by the soul, it means that this stage of soul adjustment is coming to an end.
The completion of authority and the acquisition of new authority will give the soul more power and variables on its upward journey.
So what Calvin has to do while in hibernation is just the initial adjustment of the above work.
During this year, his soul made a lot of changes in order to adapt to the new collection and use of "salvation" authority.
The aspect reflected in reality is the abnormal changes at a certain stage while he is still awake.
I don't know when, the paladins in the Honor Guard suddenly found that they could not remember the specific appearance of Calvin during one of their meditations and memories.
Even though they exhausted their memories, they could not describe any physical features about Calvin in detail!
This weird phenomenon was confirmed to be a common phenomenon after communicating among them!
Could it be that someone has tampered with the memories of these outstanding Gray Knights? But these Gray Knights, who are psychic masters per capita, are still unaware of this?
Who could silently change the memories of all of them without being discovered? Does such a person really exist?
Confused and uneasy, they found the Supreme Master Walden, who was busy with official duties, and told all their experiences to the elder they believed to be the most trustworthy.
The elders' reaction also made them a little surprised and disappointed, because Grand Master Walden himself seemed to be one of the victims.
If it hadn't been for the reminder from the paladins, he probably wouldn't have realized there was such a big problem with his memory.
The Supreme Grand Master immediately called all the members of the Council of Mentors who had not yet gone out to perform tasks, and then they were not surprised to find that other Grand Masters were not spared.
After urgent communication, the great teachers ruled out the possibility that this matter was a man-made one.
Because no matter what, the Gray Knights, who are psychics per capita, cannot believe that there is such a being who can do such a thing.
Without alerting anyone, rewrite all the memories of all the Gray Knights in the Titans who have interacted with the Primarch, and then leave quietly?
Even if the late Lord Machado, the Prime Minister of Magic Patterns, was still alive, he wouldn't be able to do it.
The only possibility, then, is that the source of these changes came from Calvin.
There must be some change about him that everyone failed to notice.
Under the leadership of Grand Instructor Walden, everyone quietly came to the separate medical room where Calvin was.
After opening up numerous encryption and security measures, everyone finally saw Calvin who was still awake in the life-saving cabin in the medical room.
Calvin's body was still floating and sleeping quietly in the huge life-saving cabin, and the dedicated pharmacist who monitored Calvin's physical signs at all times also looked at these unexpected visitors with questioning eyes.
"We got some information about him and hope to confirm it here."
Out of respect for the pharmacist brother, although Grand Master Walden did not describe the specific situation in detail, he still symbolically gave the other party an explanation.
After receiving the explanation, the pharmacist turned his attention back to Calvin in the life-sustaining cabin without asking any further questions.
However, soon, the pharmacist brother seemed to notice something abnormal.
He shifted his perspective away from Calvin and back again. This was repeated several times.
"Did you discover it too?" Grand Master Walden asked him.
"Is this the reason for your arrival?" The pharmacist stopped trying to recall Calvin's appearance and looked at everyone present.
"Is this true of all of you?"
"I'm afraid so."
"No sign of psychic interference."
"Yes."
"There is no possibility of subspace contamination."
"Yes."
"So……"
Everyone is still trying to find out why this happened.
The great mentor Walden, who had been thinking beside him, seemed to think of something. He waved his hand to stop everyone's discussion and said:
"At this point, I think I have a clue."
He glanced at everyone present and said: "There is a discussion about his changes, that ends here. Discussion is no longer allowed."
He turned his attention to Calvin in the life-sustaining cabin and continued: "The changes in him now seem to be just the beginning. Before the final growth is completed, we have no need to make any conclusions. Let's go..."
Although they didn't know the specific reason, everyone finally chose to believe in the judgment of the eldest man in the group.
In the second year, the synchronization of Calvin's soul and authority was basically completed. But due to the strength of his soul, he has been unable to achieve perfection.
In the third year, after digesting all the gains from his previous fight against the original demon on Titan, Calvin finally completed the minimum threshold in soul strength.
The coordination of authority and soul is now completed, and the relevant adaptive changes of the body begin.
In the fourth year, after the further adjustment of the soul was completed, Calvin's body also began to adjust and adapt in sync with the latest state of his soul.
His body began to further optimize his spiritual organs without increasing his height or weight:
For example, his vocal cords and eye pupils were memorized by the body due to the high frequency of use of psychic energy, and were strengthened to a considerable extent at this stage.
Another example is the psychic channels all over his body that were developed along his arteries in order to adapt to the use of high psychic powers...
But these transformations were not smooth. They were stuck at a key node due to the quality of the cells in his body; cells with too low energy levels could not afford the latter's construction and subsequent use intensity.
So after undergoing the transformation of his soul for the first three years, his subsequent spontaneous transformation of his body was stuck in this delicate situation due to the progress of cell deconstruction.
With this card, another year has passed.
In the fifth year, after the cell activity in his body approached 30% of the original cells, the last prerequisite for physical transformation was finally met.
The construction of the psychic channel in his body was also completed quickly within a few weeks after being fully prepared.
Just like the installation and commissioning process of large equipment, necessary ignition and trial operation are an indispensable link.
The moment all the complex transformations on Calvin's body were completed, his whole body was suddenly enveloped in a ball of spiritual light.
His body was the first to enter a critical state, and his heart began to beat powerfully. Driven by the former, the blood accelerated and rushed to the whole body to deliver more nutrients.
The authority in the soul began to vibrate in a small area but at a high frequency. After the petitioners in the Holy City in the spiritual world sensed Calvin's call, loud hymns also sounded from them.
The pharmacist who had been keeping a close eye on him also discovered that he could no longer see Calvin's appearance after the halo appeared.
In other words, what the pharmacist saw in his field of vision after using his spiritual energy to penetrate the halos invisible to mortals was only the Calvin in his memory.
This kind of Calvin made the pharmacist brother who was also a psyker instinctively feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
He didn't even know whether what he saw was true or false, or that the Calvin he could see now was just the Calvin he wanted to see.
Just as he was debating whether to raise an alarm and wake up the person in charge on duty, the psychic halo suddenly disappeared.
The Calvin who stayed in the life-support cabin in his field of vision seemed to be no different from before, but also seemed to be a little different.
Without hesitation, he pressed his white gauntlet hard on the red button that represented an emergency.
Immediately, everyone in the base who knew about Calvin's dormancy was alerted by this alarm, and a group of great mentors who had not gone out immediately walked quickly towards here from all corners of the Titan Fortress.
After all the Grand Masters who had received the emergency notification rushed to the medical room where the life-sustaining cabin was located, the pharmacist informed everyone present of his reason for calling the police and what he had seen and heard.
The Grand Masters were also listening to the pharmacist's report while examining Calvin's body with their own eyes.
After communicating with each other, they discovered the fact that the Calvin they saw from their perspective seemed to have some subjective interference effects. Everyone's view of Calvin is generally the same but not the same.
Just when these great teachers were planning to have further discussions on this matter, Calvin, who had completed all the modifications in the life-saving cabin, finally opened his eyes again after five years.
His silver-grey eyes attracted the attention of everyone present the moment they opened.
Starlight like the Milky Way gathered in his eyes, and the compassion of divinity and humanity were intertwined to form a sacred scene.
Such an unusual face shocked everyone present. That person seemed to make them feel proud just by looking at them.
The silence did not last long before it was broken by Calvin in the life-support tank.
A psychic message sent by him was received by everyone present:
"So, is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."
Cold, Cavan. I'm a little surprised, but at least today's update is guaranteed. Asking for votes.
