Chapter 197 Where is Dad?
Ever since Alpharius left the Blacklight and went off to hang out somewhere unknown, Hogg returned to his loyal Alicia and continued his daily slacking off.
During this period, Blackwatch continued to carry out their logistics and transportation business. Ships with the Blackwatch logo could be seen on every battlefield of the Great Crusade.
And as the Nira terminals were steadily laid out, Kara connected every world, allowing the residents of the empire to unite as a whole for the first time.
It was a success, allowing the human empire, which was in the feudal interstellar lordship system, to gradually enter the era of interstellar feudal monarchy. It can be said to be an unprecedented victory.
Everything is moving in a positive direction, at least that's what Hogg thinks.
But after all, not everyone is like Blackwatch, a group of easily satisfied idiots, whose desires will never be satisfied.
The development of Blackwatch happened to infringe upon the interests of some forces. This group of people strongly opposed the installation of the Nila terminal. They were the Star Language Court.
As the main means of navigation for the human empire, drifting in the warp is not a simple matter. Without a navigator, no ship dares to move forward in this chaotic sea of souls.
Moreover, the Star Language Court is also responsible for the task of hyperspace communication, and after the installation of the Nila terminal, the convenience of Kara is unmatched by them.
After all, the butt determines the head, and no one wants to be replaced by others.
Just like it was not guns and cannons but the rapidly developing mechanized troops that eliminated the ancient heavy cavalry, the overlapping functions put the Xingyu Court in a very embarrassing position.
Even though the functions of the astropaths cannot be replaced now, anyone with a normal brain can see that the future belongs to Kara.
To the extent that, uneasy thoughts are spreading within this force, but the point that could detonate them has not yet appeared.
The empire's worrying political system obviously did not realize this, and the mountains of government affairs had already made the masters of the Ministry of Government Affairs feel overwhelmed.
Now Hogg encountered an unexpected situation. An uninvited guest came to Alicia and sat in front of him.
"Magnus, why did you, a sunburned Ogryn, think of looking for me? Did you feel inferior to Maokai last time?"
Hearing Hogg's teasing, Magnus's face turned red and black. He had finally gotten rid of that experience that destroyed his worldview, and after Hogg mentioned it, he remembered it again.
Originally, at that time, he was studying psychic experiments in Prospero, wondering whether he could use psychic energy to create an anti-psychic magic.
But this guy Hogg broke into his laboratory directly, and ran up to him with that damn Ogryn, saying something like "I found your brother".
Hogg, who never tires of harming others, even painted Ogryn red, gave him the same hairstyle as Magnus, and in a subsequent bet, he successfully broke the defense of the Red King.
The two used Ogryn's IQ as the handicap and bet between Sunburned Ogryn and Shorty Ogryn. Whoever lost would have to acknowledge the nickname.
Magnus would never forget the moment when he taunted Hogger, the Ogryn, for not being able to count to ten, the strange creature named Maokai put on a show for him.
The big man assembled a plasma engine commonly used in the Empire, and said to Magnus in his silly voice:
"My fellow countryman, are you also Ogryn? How come you are sunburned and turned red?"
If Ahriman hadn't stopped him, the furious Magnus would have transformed into Psychic Ultraman on the spot and punched the strange creature that offended him into a pancake.
Since this incident, the nickname of Sunburned Ogryn has spread like wildfire, and even when he was making a psychic call with the Emperor, the Emperor asked him if he was sunburned.
Whenever the other brothers saw him, they would secretly say "Sunburn Ogryn", but for the sake of his pride, Magnus never refuted.
The red skin color disguised Magnus' expression very well, making it impossible to tell his emotions.
But this time, Magnus did not come here to let Hogg make fun of him, and he directly stated his purpose:
"Hogg, I've been researching an anti-psychic spell recently, and you, who are even more disgusting than the soulless, are exactly the tester I need. Come on and help me, brother." It has to be said that Magnus is really good at judging people. Hogg, who has achieved unity of body and soul, has a subspace projection that is completely a bunch of twisted dark tentacles.
Not to mention the soulless ones, even the Void Whale would have to run away quickly if it saw it, for fear of being eaten by this weird thing.
Hogg, who was bored, would certainly not miss this opportunity. The dull life during this period was almost boring him to death.
As he is insulated from psychic energy, he also wants to see what Magnus' "amazing wisdom" can come up with. This anti-psychic spell is obviously in line with his temperament as Sunburn Ogryn.
As soon as Hogg agreed, Magnus took him to the open space outside. Ahriman, who had been prepared, brought a large amount of spellcasting materials.
The Black Watch members who were keen on watching the show also gathered around and watched the psychic can writing and drawing on the ground, but just like Hogg, they embraced the psionic energy and couldn't understand it.
But this did not stop these cloaked cockroaches from commenting and pointing at Ahriman who was drawing a magic circle with his butt sticking up.
"Look, this psychic can is really round!"
"What's that? In my hometown, drawing a circle is a basic skill. Let alone drawing a circle, we don't even use blueprints to build houses."
Listening to this man bragging, the Black Watch who spoke first turned his head and looked over. He found that this brother was a head taller than him, and the power armor he was wearing seemed to be modified.
"Where is your hometown?"
"Olympia."
When Bain heard that they were from Olympia, he understood instantly. He had heard that a group of cousins had come here to switch jobs, but he didn't expect to run into them.
Just like the stereotype, with an empire this large, it is inevitable that there will be all kinds of rumors.
For example, all the people in Olympia are cement workers. There are construction sites on the planet that are never completed. The first thing the residents there do when they wake up every day is to run to the construction site to mix cement.
There are also people on Fenris who like to have fun in the snow, and people on Baal who drink human blood for no reason. The most ridiculous thing is the World Eaters.
It is rumored that this group of people loved using the Extermination Order so much that they blew up their own home planet in excitement, and now they can only move to a new home planet.
While everyone was chatting and bragging, the magic circle carved by Ahriman was completed.
As the main spellcaster, Magnus stood in the magic circle, and Hogg, as the tester, stood beside him.
As the Crimson King mobilized his surging spiritual power, colorful light was reflected from the space. After a violent flash of light, the two people in the middle of the magic circle disappeared.
"?"×N
The crowd onlookers exclaimed:
"Amazing! As expected of the Red King, he disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. Too strong!"
But as time passed, the onlookers discovered that something was wrong. Why didn't the two disappeared primarchs come back yet? Slowly, the crowd became agitated.
Ahriman, who was still standing there, was sweating profusely, the equation he and his father had set up shouldn't be like this.
Just as he was checking the psychic equation, wondering if there was something wrong, several pairs of large hands pressed down on his shoulders:
"Damn you psychic can, where is my big daddy? Give it back to us!"
OK, nothing more
