"Thousand Sons" Five Cults' Cooperative "Dance"
After Rosicky left, Nimrod immediately went to the "Nation of Disorder".
He commanded the Space Ape to concoct the Sequence 6 "Mechanic Expert" potion using materials such as the Eight-Sided Eight-Toothed Gear discovered in Necromunda.
After obtaining the golden "Mechanic Expert" potion, he immediately returned to the real world and summoned Rosicky.
Rosicky took the golden potion from Nimrod's outstretched hand, tilted his head back, and drank it.
He heard the sound of countless gears meshing, followed by the roar of machinery.
A moment later, Rosicky withdrew the overflowing potion power and bowed slightly.
"Thank you, Lord, for this gift. I will certainly make good use of the power you have given me."
"After becoming a 'Mechanic Expert,' I can complete the manufacture of the Space Particle Excavator much faster."
"While the Space Particle Excavator can extract entirely new elemental minerals, the accompanying destructive nuclear fusion reactions will also cause irreversible damage to the planet's ecological environment," Nimrod instructed.
"Once successfully manufactured, deploy it in uninhabitable star systems."
"Yes, my lord." The Lord of the Forge accepted the order and departed.
Nimrod stepped toward the machine beneath the statue and continued his conversation with the Ancestor Shrine.
Given Votann's importance to the Squats, his actions against the Ancestor Core of the League of Votann will provoke retaliation from many alliances.
More importantly, once the League of Votann surrenders to the Imperium, the Tech-priest will persuade the War Council to accept it.
Nimrod has no reason, nor can he, continue to wage war against the Squats at the expense of the Shadow of Order.
He must hurry and seize the spoils.
The dangerous environment at the center of the Galaxy is unsuitable for human habitation. Only a special species like the Squats, who have adopted Clone Tapestry Technology, are suited to survive here.
Nimrod did not intend to expend a lot of resources to establish a territory in the center of the Galaxy, as there were still many worlds in the Galaxy that were easy to develop.
His plan was to trade with the League of Votann and acquire resources unique to the central region of the Galaxy.
Nimrod is targeting the various technologies hidden within Votann. Once the Ancestor Shrine leave the Galaxy center, they may be unable to interact with Votann due to the distance.
Therefore, he did not immediately join the operation after the "Shadow of Order" launched its landing operation on the main planet of Squat.
Nimrod aims to achieve the strategic goals of the War Council while simultaneously extracting as much knowledge as possible from the STC and other resources stored within Votann.
During this period, he repeatedly used the "Baron of Corruption" concept of "Concept Substitution," and after his Spirituality was exhausted and he recovered, he repeated the cycle of interaction.
Nimrod strode to the base of the statue, placed his palm on the screen, and activated "Concept Substitution".
"I am human, and so is the Grimnyr Magos."
"Grimnyr Magos can interact with Vulkan, so can I."
Nimrod, in his capacity as "Grimnyr Magos," pleaded, "Great Ancestor, I need plasma beam weapons to fight against the invading enemy."
Through repeated interactions, he not only mastered the language of the Squats, but also learned how to interact proactively.
The Primarch rapidly memorized the design template of the Eta - Kharn Plasma Gun that flashed across the screen.
The "Baron of Corruption" also used every opportunity of interaction to Teleport to Votann the future he, the "Grimnyr Magos," had foreseen.
As his Spirituality was about to be exhausted, he spoke:
"The great ancestor, Primarch Nimrod, will bring hope to the League of Votann."
The League of Votann should form the Iron Oath to fight alongside the "Shadow of Order".
..."
Nimrod knew that since the "Great Crusade" when humanity rediscovered the Squats, some of them had fought alongside the Imperium.
Many Iron Oath also leave their homes to become mercenaries, joining various factions in the Galaxy to broaden their understanding of Galaxy.
Besides acquiring resources through technology and trade, his third target was the armed forces of the Squats.
According to the Nimrod Plan, only when the core forces of the League of Votann enter the battlefield will he personally enter the battlefield to completely defeat the enemy.
While the "Baron of Corruption" was uncovering the secrets of Votann, two other Primarch personally led their Warrior in an offensive.
The first Sun month of 851.
Galaxy D-1519, located on the outer edge of the Galaxy's center.
Magnus's "Thousand Sons" launched a series of surprise attacks, seizing numerous shipyards in the D-1519 system before initiating a landing operation on the planet's surface.
Magnus led the offensive, commanding five thousand Thousand Sons to attack the clan's Hearth-Fortress.
The "Pavoni Cult" was his ideology. Apophis and others used Raptora Cult techniques to connect the minds of all the Thousand Sons together.
Members of the "Pavoni Cult" also tried to probe the enemy's minds, but the Squats were determined and it was difficult for them to obtain information from them.
Magnus joined the process, and together with several lecturers including Apophis, they gained insight into the enemy's surface-level thinking.
As the leader of all schools of thought, his skill in every aspect Thousand Sons.
When the progress of the "Pavoni Cult" was hampered, he immediately filled the gap in this area.
The Primarch's powerful Psionic Energy and superb skills allowed them to glimpse the Squats's indirect methods and interception routes from the surface of their resilient thinking.
"The Corvidae Cult" was Magnus's eyes and ears, a flickering image flashed through Azek Ahriman's mind.
He saw a large number of Ironkin appear at the nine o'clock position, raising plasma cannons and attacking the Thousand Sons.
Ahriman immediately sent a short warning pulse, which touched Magnus's mind in an instant.
The Primarch's incredibly complex thought structure is like a dazzling star in the void, its brilliance illuminating the surrounding stars.
After Ahriman's warning about the future was sent out, the Thousand Sons immediately took emergency action.
The Thousand Sons of the "Falcon Sect" are Magnus's shield; the Psychic Shield they unleash block the plasma flames.
The "Pyrae Cult" and the "Pavoni" were Magnus's powerful counterattacks, launching attacks against the enemy.
Psionic Energy arcs leaped across the Ironkin's steel shell, turning the solid Steelification charred, scattered pieces.
Buzzes of Psychic Flame melted the steel bodies, reducing them, along with the Ironkin, to charred ashes.
The "Corvidae Cult" uses precognition to continuously send Thought Impulse to the Thousand Sons.
Every intervention alters the course of the future, and every outcome stirs up ripples of cause and effect. Through their interaction, these ripples weave together intricate patterns imperceptible to ordinary people. Only Thousand Sons, who has mastered the Raven Art, possesses a sufficiently powerful mind to process this information.
Ahriman experiences dancing with the potential future, witnessing the intertwining of possibilities and inevitabilities into a storm.
It is fickle and unpredictable, its reality and illusion uncertain.
Ahriman had never experienced a more perfect scene. He smiled as the magnificent dance led by his Primarch, Magnus, dispelled the gloom of the Flesh Mutation.
Magnus, the Red Cyclops, leads the descendants of the "Pavoni Cult," gathering intelligence on the Squats while overseeing the entire war effort.
He discovered that the Squats were more resilient than he had anticipated.
Even though the Five Cults united as a whole and used their Psionic Energy skills to inflict heavy casualties on them, they not only did not collapse, but also maintained their line of defense and launched a counterattack with all their might.
The "Corvidae Cult" foresaw those major changes and issued early warnings for surprise attacks, but they could not avoid the continuous barrage of firepower.
The Squats' intense, relentless firepower was too much for the Falcon Sect to withstand, with each attack proving too much for them.
The Thousand Sons of the "Pyrae Cult" were hit by more than a dozen explosive shells, their Power Armor was torn apart, and their offspring died.
Seconds later, the "Pavoni" was wiped out.
A dozen seconds later, the Falcon Sect's Thousand Sons' mental energy was exhausted, Psychic Shield shattered.
Magnus raised his arm, and a meteor-like burst of flame rained down from the sky, crashing into the Squats.
The "Thousand Sons" currently number no more than five thousand, and even with the new recruits undergoing reformation, the total number is less than ten thousand. They cannot afford to be wasted in the brutal underground street fighting.
Magnus strode forward, his right hand Scimitar; the rapidly spinning blade felled several Ironkin in succession.
He raised his staff high in his left hand, Telekinesis swept over dozens of Squats, hurling them into the air and tearing them to shreds.
