Forty thousand years later, he became a god in the warp

Chapter 199 The Mystery of the Past: Who is the Friend?

When the bishop recounted the great achievements of the God-Emperor, all the nuns showed gratitude for everything the God-Emperor had done for mankind.

Then the elder sister took over the conversation and congratulated everyone on becoming a higher-level student of perseverance. But their journey was not over yet, and if they wanted to become real nuns, they still needed a lot of study and training.

But at least now, they can take a short break for two days.

Then everyone can arrange their own time. Of course, most sisters will still continue with their daily plans step by step.

Caroline is like this. The sisters around her like to pray with her. It’s not that Caroline’s personality is so likable.

Rather, it was because of the other party's status as a negative psychic that these nuns felt physically uncomfortable being with her.

This kind of situation should be something that everyone would find annoying. After all, Caroline was also the type that was isolated when she was in college.

It’s not just because they are older than others, in most cases it’s because of negative psychic energy.

But for this group of nuns, it seemed like the Divine Emperor was training them. They all believed that constant tempering and suffering was the Divine Emperor's will.

So they all liked to stay by Caroline's side and feel this slightly uncomfortable situation. But the more this happened, the more firm their faith in the Emperor became.

Caroline also accepted that going through hardships is a key part of her growth.

"Sister Caroline."

Caroline suddenly froze in place. The familiar name made her feel lost. Suddenly she realized that someone was calling her, and this was her own name.

"Sister...are you calling my name? Caroline..."

Caroline looked at the visitor. The familiar face was nowhere to be found in her memory. Judging from her clothes, this lady was a silent nun.

She is wearing a light yellow slim-fitting half-set armor, with her hair cut short but not yet tied into a ponytail. Her rank should be that of a newly promoted nun.

"I'm Grave. Have you forgotten your past?"

The woman in front of her was the novice (silent) nun Grave who had sent her to Zhongsi Academy. But at this moment, no fragments of memory flashed through her mind.

Caroline shook her head in confusion.

Grave looked at her old friend's face, which seemed to remember nothing, and opened her mouth but then closed it silently.

The time has not come yet. She also underwent memory reconstruction surgery, and it took her several years to recover some fragments of that loss.

Caroline has only been here for less than a year, and she will find her old self again.

"We know each other. I want to talk to you, is that okay, sister?" Grave stepped forward and said.

The determined people around were originally thinking about the relationship between the two, but when Grave came forward, they suddenly felt a stronger sense of discomfort.

Caroline also felt that feeling, but hers was different from that of her other sisters because it was a feeling of intimacy.

"Yes, of course."

The two of them strolled outside the church, feeling the peaceful atmosphere under the glittering stained glass windows.

"Sister Caroline, you don't have to think about our previous relationship, because as time goes by, you will remember the memories you wanted to protect the most when you were undergoing memory transformation.

So, if you remember me in the future, then at that time, you can recall our conversation today. "

The two sat under the stained glass windows, admiring the hundreds of churches and thousands of spires before them.

Caroline listened to the strange sister telling her story, but the memories of nothing made her heart feel a little empty.

"Sister Caroline, I don't think I can become a Sister of Silence. I tried very hard, but my hand holding the gun kept shaking."

Grave said, raising her hands as if to check if she was still shaking.

"I don't like fighting, and I didn't even volunteer to join the Sisters of Silence. I'm just... just a bastard born from a crew member and a prisoner below the deck of a black ship.

My mother died after giving birth to me, and I never saw my father. I was raised by those robot servants.

I lived on the lower deck, where there was no sunlight, for thirteen years. My perception of the world was hatches, pipes, oil, metal, howling, and darkness.

I didn't even know what kind of world was behind the deck above my head, and I had never even left the lower area of ​​the Jose until I was discovered by Ms. Yulena. "

Although Caroline didn't understand the other person, she still sat next to Grave, who seemed to be recalling her sadness, and then reached out and gently stroked her back.

The monk said that listening to the other person's pain was one of the nun's duties, and she regarded Grave as someone who needed to be admonished.

"Thank you." Grave said. "You don't know how I survived. Those servitors don't need food, so there is not enough food to feed me.

But they found that the mutated creatures would lose their activity around me, so they made a bold decision.

Feeding me with creatures that had mutated from traveling through the warp was an act that seemed heretical to you and me, but it allowed me to grow up safely.

This makes the servitors think I am some kind of miracle, although now you and I both know that this is because I am a negative psyker of the highest level.

Those chaotic creatures were unwilling to get close to me, so those mechanical servants loved me very much and successfully raised me into an adult.

I also learned about the world from them. Unfortunately, they are all dead..."

"What happened?" Caroline said at the right moment.

Grave raised her hand to wipe away the tears hanging from the corners of her eyes and continued:

"The Warp... a machine soul was unhappy, which led to a large-scale pollution incident. A large number of machine servants were twisted into strange creatures.

At the age of thirteen, I was terrified as I watched familiar people die one by one in front of me. I didn't even have to hide because those chaotic creatures didn't like to get close to me.

Later, Ms. Yulena led a combat team to clean the lower deck of the ship and found me fainted from crying. "

"Then they discovered your negative psychic powers and recruited you into the Sisters of Silence, right?" Caroline guessed.

Grave nodded.

"Yes, I spent the next five years changing my cognition and trying to integrate into the new environment.

Although Ms. Yulena and the other sisters of silence cannot speak, they are very caring towards me, and their love needs no words to express.

My name was given to me by the Sisters of Silence after I successfully learned the sign language.

I gradually integrated into it, just because I found the feeling of home, and Ms. Yulena was more like the missing identity, my mother. "

Caroline's heart ached. It seemed that the word "mother" had been isolated from her for a long time.

"I began to learn about the Sisters of Silence and about the Empire, and I was quickly drawn to these things.

Culture, politics, society, economy, humanities, before I met you, I really didn't have any experience of fighting.

Ms. Yulena did not force me to learn combat knowledge. I... I really hate combat... I hate the emergence of death.

So I'm not really a Sister of Silence at all, I'm just an unknown person with the same powers as them."

Caroline reached out and took Grave into her arms, gently patting her on the back. She no longer tried to hold back the pain and began to cry loudly.

“Sister, you and I both have our own responsibilities. The Divine Emperor has given you and me the ability to learn, so we should continue to learn.

The God-Emperor has gifted us with the art of battle, so you and I should fight to the death.

This is your talent, you should use it well. Now you just haven't figured it out yet. I think you should walk in the kingdom of God.

Go and witness everything. You have to be brave. The monks said that there are many ways to help the Emperor, and fighting is only one of them. "

Listening to her old friend's comfort, Grave gradually stopped crying, wiped her red eyes, nodded and said:

“Yes, fighting is only one of many ways, there are many more ways to contribute to the empire.

This is also one of the reasons why I came here. I will take the Black Ship to the Storm Star Region to collect the psykers who are becoming more and more numerous due to the opening of the Great Rift.

So, I don’t know when I will come back next time.

Reverend Shoggoth also left, and he was on Mars at the time, so I couldn't see him, so I wanted to come and say goodbye to you.

It's a pity that you haven't remembered yourself yet."

"Shu..Shugoth."

Caroline was a little confused. She tried hard to think about the memories of the past, but at the end of the memory corridor was her hospital bed in the college.

There was no tearful Grave in front of him, and no Shoggoth on Mars.

“That’s all, Sister Caroline. I hope you can find your memories and see me as I was back then.

Now, I am going to the airport to carry out Ms. Yulena's will.

Moreover, my mission is not yet completed, and our friend Lin Heng has not returned yet."

Grave wiped her tears, stood up and hugged Caroline, then turned around and left quickly.

At this time, her heart knot loosened a little, but her belief became stronger.

'Ms. Yulena, I have come to complete my mission. I am not the strong Sister of Silence, I am just Grave who was rescued by you.'

...

Caroline looked at Sister Graves walking away, silently muttering this unfamiliar name, and she wondered how much memory she had lost.

What kind of crisis have you experienced in your past?

"Lin..Heng..Who is..."

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The rumbling of the bell interrupted her thoughts. Caroline looked thoughtfully at the stained glass window under the setting sun.

Under the orange-red sunset, the color of the stained glass windows gradually dimmed, but the pieced-together statues of emperors and gods on them were still shining.

"Lin..Heng..."

The emperor, dressed in golden armor, stared straight ahead, his blurred face making him look even more divine.

"Lin..Heng..."

Caroline always felt that she had seen this blurry face before, on the trial star, where it was controlled by the evil heretic and was only freed from control by the coming of the God-Emperor.

The figure in my memory at that time seemed like someone, strange yet familiar...

"...Lin Heng!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
