Chapter 159 Fighting between left and right and the beginning of the return journey

Chapter 159 Fighting between left and right and the beginning of the return journey

The three hundred true names are like three hundred sharp weapons, sleeping quietly in the body of the Sword of Oath, for at least more than 2000 years.

In the days when no one upholds them, the power of the true name fades away like the fading strength of the empire.

In the end, only the most core seeds were left, floating and sinking in the world of the sword with the inscriptions of the Sword of Oath.

According to the internal records of the Gray Knights Chapter, the last true name holder died in the crusade against a certain big demon at the end of the thirty-six thousand years.

After that, as time passed, the power and mystery of the true name holder became unverifiable.

Only the few words recorded from the perspective of bystanders in the Inquisition, and the absurd descriptions in the eyes of future generations, left behind the great power that those heroic mortals had when facing demons.

Afterwards, the human side completely lost this inheritance, and also lost the qualification to compete head-on with the demon as a peer, and could only use precious lives and souls to fill the gaps and blanks.

This is a loss for humanity, a regret for the empire, and the reason why Natilik’s soul as a sword-wielder cannot be freed for a long time.

But now in the sword in front of Calvin, the seeds of three hundred true names are lying quietly in the world of the sword. Just the remaining breath in it makes Calvin avoid it if he is careless.

The sword does not contain much spiritual energy, and most of the impact on Calvin comes from the blessing of Calvin's own power.

The Holy Sword only injects its own will and provides a short passage in the sword pool where Calvin and True Name are.

Buzz!

The moment they sensed Calvin's soul, the real names in the sword pool reacted in different ways. Some real names that were compatible with him became active instantly, while others with incompatible real names went berserk.

But no matter which real name it was, they all rushed towards Calvin at the moment of being aroused, and then froze in front of his soul, which was completely different from the local aborigines...

What is this? The real names were also stunned by Calvin's soul.

If the soul to which the true name is qualified is two-dimensional, then Calvin's soul comes from three dimensions;

And when they realize that they are three-dimensional, Calvin's soul is like a four-dimensional Klein bottle, with an unknown structure that cannot be understood by the real name that is compatible with the instinct of the human soul!

"Heretic! Die!"

The true name went berserk in an instant, and thousands of years of power dissipated, leaving only the weak concept of these seeds.

But they still followed the original meaning and mission of their existence, turning into sharp swords and slashing at Calvin in the idealistic world within the Sword of Oath!

Feeling that something was going wrong, Calvin's soul instinctively began to resist, but he did not dare to give up the power of the Sword of Oath even under the threat of death!

Bitter!

This is his strength, and that is his strength. At this moment, Calvin fell into the awkward position of wrestling with himself.

Fortunately, during the process of the soul's full defense under stress, Calvin's "local household registration" signed by the emperor himself still leaked out.

So when he recognized that the real names of the "household registration" were in conflict with themselves, Calvin hurriedly withdrew his consciousness from the Sword of Oath.

These steps are troublesome to talk about and troublesome to do, but in the idealistic spiritual world, the whole process only takes a moment.

There is a scene of Calvin just giving up and throwing the Sword of Oath.

When the crisis was over, Calvin immediately checked his status, and then unexpectedly discovered that his psychic energy was consumed far more than he expected in a short period of time.

Just a moment of contact, and the consumption of his spiritual energy by fighting with his left and right hands exceeded 10%.

What surprised him even more was that with his blessing and stimulation, he clearly felt that the power carried by the true name in the sword was reviving!

what is this? Raise a sword? Or use the crisis to stimulate these old men who have been sleeping for too long to eat?

It doesn’t matter what it is, as long as the result is good, you can accept it!

Calvin doesn't yet know the meaning and usage of these real names, but he only needs to know that these powers belong to this sword.

What he knows right now is that as long as he is willing to endure the tempering of the power in this holy sword, he can effectively consume the spiritual energy while also cultivating the power in it!

Hey! This thing! interesting!

Calvin said while looking at the holy sword suspended in mid-air in front of him after being blessed and stimulated by his power.

We'll take care of the rest later. The nature of Calvin's character is such that he is not stingy.

It has always been his life philosophy to take matters into his own hands when the ship reaches the bridge, and cherishing the present is his code of conduct.

He temporarily removed himself from the anxiety of the crisis and focused his attention on the sword.

There are still about two weeks until the Titan fleet arrives to greet the sword. In these two weeks, he wants to play with the sword!

…………………………………………

"Some people say that you are just like a human female during her menstrual period. You faint at every turn. They also ask what your tricks are, but I won't say who it is."

It was two weeks later that the Titan Direction Fleet arrived in the Federman System.

As the master of this fleet, these were the first words that the Lord of the Hall of Victory, the High Templar Knight Gallagher St. Dimas, said after he walked down the gangway of the High Decree and saw Calvin.

To be honest, Calvin's accidental coma did cause a lot of trouble for the fleet, so Gallagher was qualified to say so. But others…

"So much bullshit..."

Calvin touched his nose awkwardly, but still swallowed the words.

Two weeks was neither long nor short. It was enough for him to temporarily suppress his anxiety and slowly adjust his mentality.

"Just kidding, do you mind as payment for letting us stay in the subspace for an extra week?"

Gallagher laughed and opened his arms to hug Calvin, then took a step back and looked at Calvin, who had grown taller again, and said:

"I have to say that the price is quite worth it. Have you grown taller again?"

"Well, the body is still developing, there is nothing we can do about it..."

Calvin also smiled and answered without further explanation.

When facing these real veterans of the Chapter, he always felt like seeing his brother, and it was also a rare moment when he could relax.

He didn't want his brother to worry about him anymore, so as he answered reluctantly, the entire starport was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.

The two giants walked side by side toward the suspended orbit below the starport. The members of the Honor Guard behind them also chatted cordially with the Templars who came out of the same door.

The Purifiers quietly walked down the gangway and assembled independently, without any communication the entire time.

Their ascetic style has long been accustomed to the brothers of the Chapter. No one will be scorned because of their habitual silence. The staff of the Chapter came forward to lead them to the quiet room of Titan II to rest.

The long team stretched out from under the starport tower, headed by Calvin and others, and extended towards the fortress group in the distance.

The mortal legions lined up for review on both sides of the avenue were all wearing black and gold uniforms with external armor. While showing the quasi-high-level leader of the chapter that they are well-equipped, they are also declaring their unyielding will.

The two of them, one tall and one short, strolled along the main road leading from the star port to the fortress, admiring the scenery made of steel on Titan II.

The Ymir Plateau where the Star Port is located has a year-round cold wind. The biting cold current rolled up the hem of Calvin's clothes. The thick fur of the robe was pressed tightly against Calvin's body by the air current, and then it was like the cloak on his back. , hunting in the wind.

Gallagher looked at the commander in front of him who had real charisma of his own, and sighed in his heart about the magic of time.

The youthfulness of the young man who was brought to him by Aidan less than 50 years ago was still vivid in his mind, as if it was yesterday.

But in a blink of an eye, he overlapped with the figure in front of him with gentle eyes and determination, and became the person that the Gray Knights could place their hope in the future.

Calvin and Gallagher were talking softly, and the surrounding facilities and the fortress in the distance were all part of the conversation.

Calvin had so much to say about this place, from the icy wilderness to the steel-made, occasionally majestic fortress, he was involved in the most important design work.

Thanks to the memory of the Phalanx Guard in another timeline, he completed the design work well and completely witnessed the Titan II coming from scratch, taking root, sprouting, and rising from the ground in this wasteland.

The light belonging to the builders flowed in Calvin's eyes. He proudly introduced everything here to his brother beside him, and the latter also happily accepted Calvin's ardor and respect while his curiosity was satisfied.

The team headed by two people extended towards the fortress from under the black star port tower. The welcoming team and the mortal troops undergoing review on both sides of the road together were more than ten kilometers long.

"Do they have their own names?" Gallagher asked, looking at the soldiers standing motionless in the cold wind on both sides of the main road.

"Tindaros, in some ancient Terran sources, means the hound that pursues time." Calvin said, pointing to the image of a hound under the golden eagle on the brim of their hats.

"A very good name."

Gallagher looked at these well-disciplined and well-equipped soldiers with great satisfaction.

As true professional soldiers, these soldiers have undergone rigorous training and cruel selection over a long period of time.

On future battlefields, they will be far more reliable than those conscripts who went into the trenches after dozens of days of temporary training.

Their loyalty has been tested and their fighting prowess has been proven.

In the future plan of the chapter, they will follow the fleet as a legion directly under the Gray Knights headquarters of the Holy Hammer Order and be active on various battlefields in the empire.

When the real war comes, this legion named Tindaros will definitely give the Gray Knight commanders an option they can trust when making decisions at critical moments.

The review ceremony continued and ended three hours later.

Gallagher also arrived at the command hall of the Titan II main building accompanied by Calvin.

The greetings and reception etiquette came to an end, and Gallagher began to perform his duties as a messenger.

With a serious look on his face, Gallagher resumed his identity as a high-ranking Templar and asked Calvin, the second Lord of Titan Castle in front of him:

"Is the holy object in your hands?"

"Yes."

Calvin pulled out the Sword of Oath from under the cloak behind his back, which was completely different from when he first got it, and handed it to Gallagher with a solemn expression in both hands.

Without Gallagher's signal, the person in charge of the Purifiers walked out of the crowd and stood beside Gallagher to identify the authenticity of the items in his hands.

As the masters of the Secret Hall, the Purifiers are obviously the people most familiar with the chapter's allusions and secrets besides the Supreme Master. They use spiritual energy to verify the authenticity of the sword in ways that only they know.

After a while, in the quiet atmosphere where the Gray Knights waited with bated breath, the leader of the Purifiers put down his sword, raised his head and said to Gallagher and Calvin:

"Emperor's Blessing! That's it, that's right."

Gallagher breathed a sigh of relief. Half of the mission of this trip was completed, so what was left was how to bring it back to its home planet Titan.

"You can follow me back to Titan to witness its return ceremony. This is also the old man's opinion." Gallagher said to Calvin.

"It's a great honor, but who will take over my watch?"

Of course Calvin wanted to go back, but there was always a lack of an officer of the same class on Titan II to serve as his deputy and sit behind the scenes for him.

While this allowed him to enjoy the significance of this duty, it also inevitably caused him to miss too many opportunities to go out and fight.

Gallagher was obviously prepared for such a question. He said to Calvin almost without thinking:

"Before I set off, the Supreme Master asked the elders in the Temple of Rest who were interested in coming here to help you. Elder Richelieu expressed his response to the call and was willing to serve as a company captain on Titan II. Continue to serve.”

"Oh? That's really good news!"

This problem that had troubled Calvin for a long time was actually solved in this way, which Calvin did not expect.

A former Grand Master from the Order of the Hammer, a current driver of the Holy Dreadnought;

A person who served the Emperor his whole life when he was still healthy, and who was willing to endure pain after he died of a serious injury, dragging his body to continue fighting for the Empire, was an existence that he could not actively recruit.

Having such an elder willing to sit behind the scenes for him is something he welcomes greatly but does not dare to expect in any case.

"So, where is the elder Richelieu now?"

He couldn't wait to see this ancestor. But it happened that there were only Gray Knights in the previous team, and there was no way he could miss the presence of such a huge figure as the Divine Fearless.

"Still dormant. If necessary, we will try to reduce his pain as much as possible and not disturb his sleep. The stasis field box carrying him has been removed from the battleship. This time has probably arrived This is your quiet room.”

Gallagher glanced at the huge clock on the wall, thought for a moment and then said to Calvin.

"When the stasis field here is debugged, you can follow me to see him. Do you have any other questions?" Gallagher asked.

"No!"

"Then get ready! The journey back to Titan may not be as smooth as when we arrived."

Gallagher said to Calvin while looking through the huge porthole of the fortress at the disappearing stars on the horizon.

And beside him was Calvin's tall and majestic figure.
