As a researcher who pirated C'tan, Hogg and Imperium, his creations have a practical point and a strange appearance.
After several data collections, Hogg successfully built a Psionic Energy relay station on the day he arrived at Alicia, and he was very satisfied with the effect.
As soon as he returned to Alicia, Hogg found his teacher Candice and asked Magos to rate his work to see if it could be fully promoted in Imperium.
After listening to Hogg's design ideas, Candice confirmed the plan. She felt that her disciple was finally on the right path, instead of engaging in dangerous biological creation.
But when she walked into the laboratory and saw this so-called relay station, Candice was still relieved. She looked at the proud Hogg who was smoking with anger, and said through gritted teeth:
"Hogg, you are really afraid that my life will be stable! Can you tell me what the hell this thing is?"
Candice, who was fuming with anger, picked up Hogg and hung him directly in front of him with mechanical tentacles, as if he couldn't leave until he explained clearly.
It's no wonder that Candice is worried about his own life, it's just because Hogg's creation is too weird and completely distorts the world view.
Looking at this armored Plasteel, with several huge antennas, and a monster that is completely a fusion of flesh and blood and machinery inside, Hogg even boasted that this was a comprehensive progress in fusion technology.
"Teacher, you are too one-sided. The Psionic Energy relay station I designed may not look ugly, but it has good performance! Look at this Psionic Energy's flesh and blood and perfectly integrated machinery, don't you think it's very cost-effective?"
Listening to Hogg's explanation, even the rather heretic Candice doubted whether his disciple had a brain problem. This thing is not a question of cost-effectiveness at all, okay?
As if he saw himself being crushed to death by Emperor, Candice pointed at the open mouth of the relay station and shouted:
"You fart, this is obviously a Xenos. Is it still moving? I'm quite old, but I don't have Alzheimer's disease and I'm not blind. And why do you want to install Plasma Rapid-Fire Cannon on it for masturbation?"
Perhaps sensing something was wrong in the atmosphere, the "Relay Station" twisted its body, shrank its huge body into a ball, and lay on the ground pretending to be dead.
Such a humane scene would definitely make people feel warm if it were placed on a cute pet, but this monster, which is estimated to be ten meters tall and weighs over a hundred tons, would only make people shudder.
Perhaps because he saw Candice's dislike, Hogg took out a mini model and threw the basketball-sized thing on Magos's body.
"Teacher, don't worry, I also have a home version, and I named it Xiao Bao. This is my weapon to break into the home market! Then one for each person, wouldn't it be beautiful?"
But at this time, Candice no longer wanted to complain. The mini-relay station actually peed, and the sticky liquid splashed all over her body.
Feeling that the living skin he had just taken care of was being touched by Xenos, and the disgusting mucus soaked the robe he had just changed, Candice, who couldn't bear it anymore, began to go berserk.
"Ah! You traitor, I will throw your disgusting creation into the stars and burn it to ashes!"
Seeing his Magos going crazy, Hogg looked horrified. He had never seen Candice lose her temper like this before. Even when he scolded her like Gretchin, he never saw her get so angry.
She could only watch Candice burn her creation to ashes with a flamethrower, and then she pointed the finger at "Da Chou" who was trembling in the corner. Hogg shouted:
"Teacher, no! The child is innocent. Look at it, it is small and pitiful. It is still a baby!"
Feeling that his life was in danger, "Da Chou" opened his ferocious Great Maw and let out a moaning cry for mercy, but this only aroused Candice's determination to kill it.
But when Candice hit 'Da Chou' with a shot of phosphorus fire, a spherical scarlet shield emerged, blocking the attack that could burn through the thick armor.
Seeing this, Candice suddenly stopped moving. She discovered that this strange creation seemed to have merit. This ugly-looking thing could actually open a shield.
Thinking of this, the Candice cable was plugged in, and the so-called Da Chou was carefully detected.
After testing, Candice discovered that Hogg might really be a genius. In addition to looking disgusting, this weird creation maintains a delicate balance in terms of performance and production difficulty.
"But this is still too ugly. Anyone who sees it will regard it as a monster! What are you thinking?"
As Hogg's mentor, and Magos who specializes in biology, Candice is fully aware of Hogg's scientific research capabilities, but just like Zerg before, Hogg's aesthetics cannot be complimented.
Once Magos calmed down, Hogg slipped out of the tentacle smoothly and walked to Candice:
"My dear Magos, this is the first generation version, and I didn't say it won't be improved! I came to you just to ask you to give me the whole package. Who knew you would react so badly.
I have pity on my Xiao Bao, who was killed by worldly prejudice before he was even a day old. Why do I still want to give it to Old Man Yellow?"
Candice thought to himself, let's not talk about what Emperor will think when he sees this thing. The moment you take out this thing, Emperor will beat you to the ground Malice ya.
But since the product is generally feasible, Magos can only participate in improving it. After all, she is deeply bound to Hogg.
In this way, the master and apprentice collaborated again, running to Catachan just like the time when Zerg was made, and hiding in the 'Hive' biochemical experimental base buried deep underground.
As the saying goes, a family has an old man like a treasure. Although Hogg doesn't know the specific production date of Candice, her sophisticated experience happens to be what Hogg lacks.
The two had a clear division of labor. One designed the external structure and the other designed the internal organs. They quickly produced several failed products.
After all, Hogg and the others are not gods. It is normal for the experiment to fail. Even Primarch cannot achieve what he wants, so he can only continue.
During this period, they discovered a problem, that is, Psionic Energy also has limits, and the communication distance cannot be compared with the spiritual energy transmitted by Warp.
Unlike the metaphysical Warp, the Psionic Energy signal traveling in the physical world will inevitably attenuate, and if you want to increase the power, you can only increase the volume and Psionic Energy content.
Psionic Energy will not be generated out of thin air. Every Psionic Energy carrier is like a blue bar mage in the game. When the energy is used up, it has to wait for recovery, instead of communicating with Sea of Souls like Psyker.
But the characteristic of Psionic Energy that it can swallow other energy saved the experimental progress that was in a dilemma. Each base station can be plugged in with a battery!
Hogg very creatively thought of a creature - the devil.
