Chapter 305: Osiris Protector

The young Librarian Ramusai had ascended to the second layer of the Thelema Mindset before setting foot on the surface of Osiris III.

The moment he stepped onto the surface, he immediately felt a cold consciousness strike directly at the mental barrier he had constructed.

A flash of black light appeared in Ramusai's eyes, and by leveraging the mental impact, he vaguely grasped the enemy's location.

He immediately walked toward the direction of the Osiris Mind-Control Seed, while the controlled rebel soldiers shouted and charged toward him.

Ramusai raised his staff, and vast biochemical energy was released from the head of the staff, sweeping through the rebel soldiers like a storm.

The rebels' hearts beat violently, the flow of blood within their bodies accelerated, and their running speed surged instantly.

After sprinting for a few steps, they suddenly slowed down, their arms went limp, they released the weapons in their hands, and then their bodies collapsed weakly.

After using "Blood Boiling" to induce physical fatigue in the rebel soldiers, Ramusai caused them to lose consciousness and faint.

Ramusai bypassed the unconscious humans and strode toward the location of the Osiris Mind-Control Seed he had sensed during the mental collision.

He discovered that this Xenos had enslaved humans to build a swimming pool structure for it, and it was soaking in the pool with ease.

A flash of anger crossed Ramusai's eyes, and he immediately raised his hand, aiming at the Xenos.

Because the Gene-Father had issued an order to the Librarians to capture it alive, he did not use psychic lightning, but instead caused it to become "Weakness".

The ice-blue threads of the Osiris Mind-Control Seed hung down limply.

The humans who had been controlled and charged over stopped in their tracks one after another, looking at the black-armored Warrior with dazed eyes.

Ramusai walked to the side of the unconscious Osiris Mind-Control Seed, leaned over to pick up the Blue Psychic Staff, and felt the abundant mental power within it.

At the same moment, on the surface of Osiris III, invisible shockwaves rippled out like intangible ripples.

The Librarians put on their "Howling Mask" and launched mental attacks.

The mental screams they emitted did not have the power of a Primarch to sweep across an entire planet, but they would cause several, or even a dozen, Osiris Mind-Control Seeds to fall into a coma.

The Librarians obtained the Blue Psychic Staff from the unconscious Osiris Mind-Control Seeds, extracted the mental energy within, and the mental screams they emitted immediately increased tenfold, significantly improving efficiency.

The First Regiment of Catachan Banshees landed on Osiris V.

Just after stepping onto the surface, the Leader Miqi stopped in her tracks.

An invisible will pressed down upon her mind.

"Submit to me!"

Miqi was chosen as the Leader by Malena Skala because she was one of the three psychics among the female Warriors.

She tilted her head back and let out a piercing psychic scream, the green runes on her red wooden Mask shining, and the shrill scream was transmitted from the sonic amplifier.

Six kilometers away, inside a spire building, the Osiris Mind-Control Seed groaned in pain, and several ice threads on its heart-shaped head drifted down.

Miqi's psychic power was not as lethal as that of the Legion Librarians; the Osiris Mind-Control Seed suffered heavy damage but did not meet Death.

It extracted psychic power from the Blue Psychic Staff to recover, while simultaneously issuing orders to the enslaved humans.

Miqi let out a howl and led the Catachan Banshees to launch an attack, the Warrior's pace agile.

They ran between the buildings, raised their Laser guns, and fired rain-like beams at the human rebels.

A gap immediately appeared in the rebel line.

The Catachan Banshees broke into the gap and swept past before the rebels could re-form a encirclement.

The First Regiment of Catachan Banshees did not linger in battle; the female Warriors had received the intelligence issued to them, and they knew that slaughtering these enslaved humans was meaningless, and the Xenos must be killed.

They followed the teachings of their master Malena, running like the wind like banshees, but unlike the Eldar Howling Banshees, they were not obsessed with melee combat.

The female Warriors had already been forged into excellent marksmen by Catachan before the age of ten, and they fired at the enemy while on the move.

They ran like the wind, finding the feeling of running in the Catachan jungle.

Those enslaved humans moved slowly and with predictable patterns, much easier to dodge than those dangerous creatures in the jungle.

The Catachan Banshees avoided wave after wave of enemies and began their search.

They rushed into the factory where weapons were manufactured, the empty administrative building...

Miqi, who was running, suddenly stopped and looked at the Xenos building in the distance.

She noticed that the rebels around that building had never joined the siege against them, but remained stationed in place.

The Catachan Banshees fired dense barrages while running at high speed, and they never missed their targets.

The live ammunition fired by the human rebels grazed the bodies of a dozen female Warriors, splashing sprays of blood.

No Catachan female Warriors fell; they were long accustomed to minor injuries.

Miqi rushed into the building first, simultaneously drawing her half-meter-long Catachan Fang.

The Catachan Banshees swung their blades, severing the heads of the enemies blocking their path.

Miqi led the Banshees in a rapid advance, rushing to the residence of the Osiris Mind-Control Seed.

She let out a howl, and the Catachan Banshees behind her all let out piercing howls in unison.

The Osiris Mind-Control Seed let out a cry of terror, the psychic field around it dissipated, and its corpse fell to the ground with a thud.

Ninglu discovered that after the Osiris Mind-Control Seeds connected through the mental network, he and the Librarians became the main force on the battlefield, using the "Howling Mask" to kill enemies efficiently.

For a time, he became the busiest person, traveling between various worlds, launching mental attacks on the Osiris Mind-Control Seeds, and collecting Potion Material.

In the eleventh month of the year 834, the rebellion in the eleven star systems of the Osiris Sector was quelled.

Ninglu returned to the Shadow of Sovereignty to listen to the report from Arsena Dunn.

"My Lord, the Legion rescued five hundred and thirteen War Children during the operation, and a message has been sent to Thirteenth Legion Commander Glenn Worsoto."

"The humans liberated from the eleven star systems have elected a delegation and requested an audience with you."

"Because you were busy with the war, I met with them on your behalf, and they put forward a request."

"Oh," Ninglu nodded slightly, "what is their appeal."

"The terrified Osiris people do not want to encounter the tragic fate of being enslaved by Xenos in the future, so they request that you and the Legion protect them."

"They are willing to follow the instructions of the Order Shadow from now on."

Ninglu pondered for a moment and then gladly agreed.

"I accept their petition and provide asylum to the people of Osiris."

He thought of the possibility that some Osiris Mind-Control Seeds might not have connected to the collective psychic network of their kin and had luckily remained hidden.

【"Arbitrators" are best suited to resolve such situations.】

Ninglu thought of this and issued an order.

"The First Chapter of the Arbiter Lord, garrison Osiris and reshape the order of this place."

After the briefing, Ninglu considered his next move.

The Prophecy Dice had finished charging, and he had to decide the target for his next Divination.

One option was to divine special worlds, such as Posul, which had been selected as a recruitment world for the Fourth Legion, or as-yet-undiscovered Forge Worlds and Knight Worlds.

The other was worlds where Standard Template Constructs existed, especially those technologies discovered during the Great Crusade.

Ninglu's brain raced; he made his decision: divine the Standard Template Construct and intercept the Baal Predator.

【After the Blood Angels discovered the Standard Template Construct, they did not hand it over to the tech-priests, which led to long-standing friction.

I suppose this counts as helping them; no need to thank me, Sanguinius.】

Ninglu then arrived at the Kingdom of Disorder and picked up the Prophecy Dice.

Information he knew about Auten flashed rapidly through his mind.

【Auten III, the tech-heretic Lord Latt, possesses the Standard Template Construct for the Baal Predator.】

Ninglu had limited knowledge of the process by which the Blood Angels recovered the Baal Predator Standard Template Construct, so he recited silently in his heart.

【Star Map from Osiris to Auten.

...】

After reciting it eleven times, he reached out and threw the Prophecy Dice in his hand.

After the triangular pyramid tumbled in the air several times and landed in Ninglu's open palm, a scene resembling a holographic projection unfolded before his eyes.

After memorizing the Star Map, he input it into a Data Crystal.
