Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 223 04.0222: ‘‘Little Secret’’

While waiting for the enemy to take action, Horatio and his allies were busy with various tasks.

Everyone seems to have endless things to do. Telecommunications from higher-level departments, information about new cult strongholds, supply orders sent to various places, and hell's vanguard troops who come back with the smell of blood from time to time. They have a rare experience of a wave of internal affairs clerks. Endlessly busy like a top.

But Horatio finally got a piece of good news in the midst of his busy schedule:

Hell's Vanguard received equipment upgrades and new recruits.

Click——

After the white-hot steam dissipated, Horatio stepped down from the assembly table in the maintenance room.

Father Ratty looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.

"It will take some time to repair your 'Glory Type' power armor. As for now, please allow me to introduce to you my experimental masterpiece. I call it the 'Triumph General' (Imbrado) type officer. Powered Armor."

"So does it have any special design? Madam." Horatio asked, looking at the dark blue slim-fit armor that resembled the full-body plate armor of a Renaissance knight.

He was curious where Lati had so many ideas.

This set of power armor can see the shadow of the Battle Sister's power armor.

But the painting style of those sharp-edged parts was different from the imperial armor styles he had seen.

Maybe she got some kind of STC like the Necromunda, and maybe she happened to meet the hell's top soldiers who needed to replenish their equipment and used them as her guinea pigs.

[Abyss Harbor is a mysterious man-made planet. Could it be that she dug up some dark technological relic from somewhere underground? ] Horatio pondered.

But overall, this set of power armor looks strong and solid, making people feel safe.

The matching helmet has three defense functions and can fight in the void environment.

There is a Minerva-style vertical crown of blue horsehair on the top, and inside the crown is an advanced signal receiving device and a backup energy battery for helmet accessories.

If he didn't want to wear a helmet, she thoughtfully added a red satin belt to show his identity as an officer, so that his soldiers could quickly identify him from the crowd.

“Of course there are many special features. First of all, I enhanced its comprehensive protection capabilities and control sensitivity.

In view of the fact that you naval officers generally have nerve plug slots from the back of the head to the spine, I specially developed a set of miniature mental control devices that were 'borrowed' from the Knights of the Mechanicus.

Now, your nerve plug can not only be used to command naval battleships, but can also be connected to this set of power armor to assist you in control.

Although it is not as sensitive as the Astartes' black carapace, the response speed is already 79% faster than the standard model of force feedback power armor. "

As she spoke, she waved her right hand casually, and a servitor dressed as a maid suddenly rose up and pounced on Horatio, with sharp, swift and merciless movements.

As soon as Horatio made a slight movement to dodge, the power armor surrounding him moved with his body through his thinking reaction, and he accurately avoided the hand knife swung at his throat.

After missing a hit, the servitor stepped forward and launched another combo of deadly moves. He retreated and dodged twice in succession, and finally grabbed the servitor's arm faster, grabbing it and throwing it to the ground.

This sudden test episode made him really feel that his movements were much faster than usual.

"You see, the effect is immediate." Father Ratty showed a particularly sweet smile and clapped slightly and said:

“Secondly, it is a command officer type, and the communication command array it carries can effectively resist 80% of known interference sources within a diameter of 800 meters.

The data pad on the arm is macro-programmed. I have programmed all the common commands you may use, which can help you quickly issue deployment commands.

The data systems of other people's power armor will be automatically integrated into the local area network built by this set of Inbrado-type officer power armor. You can use this data board to check the status of all nearby action teams that can transmit network signals normally.

A unique multifunctional servo skull can be installed on the top of the rear power backpack and charged. After it is released, it can help you detect the enemy's situation, and can also be used as a signal relay station to expand the coverage of the regional network.

You can even use the laser hidden in its mouth to secretly shoot something down.

For example, if you unfortunately raise your hands and surrender, and have to throw away all the weapons in your hands, you can still control the skull through the nerve bolt to shoot your enemy from behind. "

Father Ratty's eyes rolled around:

"Then, for your personal modification, I specially removed the matching armor from the palm of your right hand to the forearm, so that your iron hand can be directly exposed and continue to play its role."

Her smile became sweeter and her eyes were undisguisedly hungry: "After all, you often use this prosthetic leg, right?"

"What do you mean? Have you heard anything about my prosthetic leg?" Horatio suddenly became wary and his tone became serious.

He thought of Judge Ravenor's words and knew that the origin of this iron hand handed down from Judge Eisenhorn was not simple.

Thinking about it now, Father Ratty's vague and mysterious words before seemed to be just a test, and she seemed to know something.

"Ah, how could you suddenly treat a lady who is helping you with such a cruel attitude?"

Father Ratty quickly showed an innocent expression, pursed his pink and translucent lips, and wrinkled his small face slightly, looking aggrieved.

But Horatio knew that she was an old actress and could pretend to be anything she wanted.

"What do you know about this iron hand? There's no one else here anyway." Horatio simply ignored her performance and said straight to the point.

He also wanted to know what kind of secrets he had hidden in the 'steel fingers' he had ever had since he came to this world.

"It's nothing. It's just that no one attaches armor to adamantine prosthetics. Isn't this a waste of weight?"

Father Ratty raised his eyebrows, tilted his head in ignorance, and said something that sounded very reasonable.

She continued: "I do want to study your arm, but you haven't given me the chance yet."

After saying that, her mature and beautiful face smiled.

"In return for helping you, when you are okay for the time being, why don't you remove this arm and let me study it?"

"No! OK!" Horatio refused firmly.

The Ravenor Inquisitor specifically told him to keep it a secret, so how could he just take it apart and study it?

What if she ran away with her 'steel fingers'? The Milky Way is so big, I might not even be able to find it.

[Be careful to identify scams! ] He was familiar with anti-fraud in his previous life and crossed his hands in front of his chest, resolutely expressing his resistance.

"Why!?" Father Ratty changed back to his aggrieved expression.

"It's just a very ordinary prosthetic leg. And, looking at its structure, if you want to take it off, you might have to amputate it."

"But I can use..."

"Okay, Father Ratty, thank you for your help. I will bring you some good things as reward in the future.

But forget it, please don’t mention it again in the future. Okay? "Horatio also responded to her acting skills and comforted a child in a coaxing tone.

The skin on Father Ratty's face changed, from a sad and aggrieved face pretending to be cute, to a smile that looked cold and scary, and said:

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Horatio, you will one day ask me to help you study the mystery of your arm.

For our current relationship, it is indeed a bit too fast to open up to this level. Please continue to keep confidentiality as firmly as you do today in the face of other people's requests~"

This mature and beautiful woman with both natural and mechanical beauty came closer, and Horatio could smell her signature strange and wonderful fragrance with a mechanical coldness.

Her delicate red lips parted slightly: "Because, this is our little secret~"

Lettie's mature voice was as delicious and alluring as a fine wine that had been stored for decades. The delicate hand she extended to Horatio was upwards. The skin on it was so delicate and moist that it was impossible to tell that it was a layer of artificial bionic skin. .

"..." Horatio didn't know what to say for a moment.

These ambiguous words sounded like he and she were underground lovers who had slept together, which could easily lead to misunderstanding.

He checked Lati's background and found no problem.

Inquisitor Ravennor also investigated and found no problems.

But why does Father Ratty give people the flavor of a vicious female villain in previous novels?

Rather, this sense of déjà vu is so strong that it is deliberate. After all, it is impossible for a villain to expose this malicious temperament so clearly.

She seemed to be silently warning Horatio with her actions - 'Keep your secrets safe, or you will die without a burial place. ’

[Is this all because she is testing whether I am strict with my mouth? ] Letty's mysterious words and deeds caused Horatio to speculate a lot.

Horatio raised his eyebrows, raised her hand in a gentlemanly manner, kissed the back of it gently, and replied calmly: "No problem, ma'am. This is our little secret, and I will never let anyone else touch it. ”

"That's it, Mr. Horatio. 'May the owl of Minerva bless you.'"

The priestess smiled charmingly, and after saying a vague word, she twisted her round hips wrapped in red holy robes and walked to the data analysis table to make final adjustments to Horatio's power armor.
