Warhammer III

The hive world Octavia II is located in the Octavia galaxy to the east of the Styx sector. The entire galaxy is very close to the Great Rift, and subspace energy has been raging in the galaxy.

The planet's registration information with the Imperial Ministry of Internal Affairs is as follows:

Star Territory: Extreme Star Territory

Sector: Styx Sector

Sub-sector: ---

Galaxy: Octavia Galaxy

Type: Hive World

Affiliation: Empire

Orbital Radius: 1 ER (Holy Terra Radius)

Gravity: 6G

Day and night temperature: 30℃/-20℃

Population: approximately 15 billion

Tax rate: 10% of population

When the Great Rift tore the Milky Way apart, the residents of the planet Octavia II found a gaping hole in the sky. Strange light emitted from the gaping hole and passed directly through the gray haze emitted by the hive city.

And those who often looked up at the stars gradually became crazy, and some residents even awakened to psychic powers, which led to more and more mutants and psykers on the planet.

Planetary Governor Harrison and the planet's Ministry of Justice formulated the most stringent laws to control psykers, and at the same time encouraged the planet's residents to launch a witch hunt.

With the help of the Mechanicus priests, a huge psyker corpse incineration factory was built at the north pole of the planet, with the chimneys of the factory reaching into the sky.

Brutally murdered psykers, and even living psyker prisoners, were thrown into incinerators by Imperial forces, and the dust produced by the burning of psykers enveloped the entire arctic sky.

On the one hand, this is because the number of psykers has increased so much that the Empire's black ships cannot come here in time to take them away and eliminate them through the witch hunt.

On the other hand, the dust of psyker corpses produced by the incineration plant blocks the energy of the warp and prevents hive residents from looking directly into the Great Rift, protecting them from being bewitched by Chaos or mutating under the influence of the energy of the warp.

This cold-blooded psyker incineration factory and the bloody suppression of the planetary governor finally succeeded in controlling the proliferation of psykers and mutants on the planet, preventing them from causing riots and maintaining peace on the planet.

The implementation of this plan is inseparable from the support of Octavia IV and the forging world "Styx Forge".

The Forge of Styx, one of the forge worlds in the sector, is registered with the Imperial Ministry of Internal Affairs as follows:

Star Territory: Extreme Star Territory

Sector: Styx Sector

Sub-sector: ---

Galaxy: Octavia Galaxy

Type: Forge World

Affiliation: Mechanicum of the Human Empire

Orbital Radius: 6 ER (Holy Terra Radius)

Gravity: 5G

Day and night temperature: 50℃/-30℃

Population: approximately 1.3 billion

Tax rate: fourth class

After the Great Rift appeared, the forge world Styx Forge accelerated the mechanical transformation of the planet's inhabitants. Although nearly half of the people died during the transformation, those who survived successfully used their mechanical bodies to resist the influence of subspace energy.

Planetary Governor Harrison has never regretted his actions. No sacrifice is too big to bear. He is a role model for the Empire!

Tai Yue flipped through the information on the Octavia galaxy, and the relevant content ended here.

But the latest intelligence from the Inquisition shows that the system has rebelled:

"Psychics should have their own country, so that the persecuted can be protected and saved. Every powerful soul should take charge of his own destiny. I am the Planetary Governor Harrison, and hereby declare that the Octavia Galaxy "Escape from the rule of a decadent empire"

In Imperial Calendar 42, Harrison, the planetary governor of Octavia II, openly announced his separation from the Empire and joined the Psyker Empire, severing all ties with the Empire.

The entire galaxy has been separated from the Empire for more than ten years. Because there are wars all over the galaxy, the Ministry of Military Affairs has not yet sent Imperial troops to deal with it.

Considering that the Astropaths have not yet contacted the Third Brotherhood, Taiyue decided to investigate Octavia's situation first.

The more important reason is that the sudden rebellion of Octavia II must be related to Chaos.

"Your Majesty the God-Emperor, I don't know what has become of Octavia II and the forge world 'Forge of Styx' now. What happened to make Planet Governor Harrison betray the empire and join the heretical spirit?" The Empire of the Able?”

Tai Yue looked at Della who was doing the test for him in front of him, and couldn't help but express his doubts.

"Master Grand Master, we will find out when we get to the Octavia Galaxy. Before that, let's take a look at the results of the physical examination!"

Della ignored Taiyue's questions and projected the inspection data in the air:

The spiritual bone component is 60%, distributed in the bones of the body, and the spiritual bone component in the skull exceeds 80%;

Mechanical cell activity is 160%, blood free concentration is 30%;

The spiritual bone-generating organ’s subspace energy conversion efficiency is 80%;

The mechanical heart generates new cells at 15% rate.

"Glory to the God of All Machines, all data have increased, especially the activity of mechanical cells has increased a lot!"

Della smiled rarely.

"This should be the reason for being activated by the subspace negative energy field of the untouchable."

Tai Yue is now not sure whether Della or the great sage Kaul knows the relationship between the two metal organs and psychic energy.

"The forbidden magic field of the omega psyker has an activating effect on metal organs?"

Della tilted her head and thought, obviously she didn't know this before.

"By the way, how are the other brothers doing?"

"Brother Bruce and Brother Nelson's metal organs are the best grown except for you. Their spiritual bone components have reached 20% and 18%, while the others have not exceeded 10%."

"What about the activity of mechanical cells?"

"The activity of their mechanical cells is basically below 60%. Brother Jerome is a little special. His current spiritual bone component is only 5%, but the activity has reached 100%!"

Tai Yue nodded. As a ferryman, Jerome is now more than 300 years old. The ceramic steel components in his bones have long been deposited. His absorption of subspace crystals is not like that of newcomers like them who have continuously implanted organs. His powerful and skilled psychic power also stimulates the activity of mechanical cells.

After checking his body, Tai Yue left the laboratory and went to the bridge. He began to think about whether he should recruit an untouchable on the spacecraft. He didn't know how long the contract between Theresa and the Star Language Court would last. She was a suitable candidate.

After several days of subspace navigation, the Uruk finally arrived at the Octavia galaxy.

"The subspace energy radiation exceeds the limit. Please activate the Geller force field during normal navigation, and take precautions and pray!"

The subspace energy detector of the spacecraft sounded an alarm. Even at the outer edge of the galaxy, the people on the spacecraft could still see the Great Rift across the Milky Way when they came to the window.

The Great Rift is also called the Cursed Scar. It extends from the Eye of Terror in the Nebulous Segment to the Great Whirlpool in the Ultramarine Segment (located in the center of the galaxy), and passes through the Far East of the Ultramarine Segment, dividing the Empire in two.

The Imperial world opposite the Great Rift is called the Dark Side of the Empire. The light of the Astronomican cannot pass through the Great Rift. The Dark Side of the Empire is a place shrouded in darkness.

100 years ago, the Imperial Regent Primarch Robert Guilliman launched the Indomitus Crusade and opened up multiple routes that could pass through the Great Rift, which gave the world of the Dark Side of the Empire hope.

"God Emperor, I hope that the Stygian Forge of the Forge World has not fallen to Chaos!"

Tai Yue stood on the bridge of Uruk and began to head to the interior of the Octavia galaxy.
