Warhammer III
Chapter 30: Holy Elephant
The psychic prophecy triggered by Taiyue this time only had a fleeting picture, and there was only a marble statue in the picture.
Not a statue of the Emperor or a Primarch, or of an Imperial saint unknown to Taiyue.
But the saint Sebastian Thor!
During the Age of Apostasy in the 36th millennium, Sebastian led the Alliance of Light and the people of the Empire to overthrow the rule of the mad tyrant Gog Vandire.
After the bloody reign, Sebastian devoted himself to the reform of the church, and the Inquisition also created the Ordo Hereticus during this period to monitor enemies within the Empire.
The Reformation included the establishment of a minor council of bishops on Ophelia VII (Planet Seven), after which Ophelia VII was second only to Holy Terra in importance.
Another important reform was to allow the Sisters of Battle to replace the directly disbanded Knights Templar and become the common armed force of the State Church and the Inquisition.
After getting the clues, Taiyue decided to split up with Inquisitor Anwodehouse and go to Trollope himself to find the Sebastian icon that appeared in the prophecy.
Concerned about the Gray Knights' secretive presence in the Empire, Taiyue used the white robes of the Inquisition to cover his power armor as a disguise.
This time, the biological sage Della also went to the bishop's world with him. Thai Yue said nothing along the way, and Della executed the relevant negotiation plan.
After they left the Uruk, they transferred to a mineral transport spacecraft that was going from the fourth planet to the second planet Trollope.
The owner of the transport spacecraft was an old Anglican priest. He had a gold-rimmed manuscript of the Book of Holy Words tied around his waist, and a brass censer was connected to a chain on his hand.
The top of the incense burner is in the shape of a skull, and light gray aromatic smoke drifts from the eyes and mouth of the skull.
Della was very repelled by this aromatic smoke, and even let the servo head filter the surrounding air while talking.
"Your Majesty the God Emperor, you two adults, don't you know that you are going to the Bishop's World Trollope to meet with Cardinal Catherine?"
The old Anglican priest was puzzled that the two dignitaries of the Inquisition in front of him did not take the luxurious passenger ship, but came to his own transport ship.
"That's not your concern."
The mechanically synthesized voice of the servo head next to Della contained no emotion at all.
"My lords, please don't get me wrong, because Lady Catherine has not met any visitors in recent years, and I am worried that your visit is in vain."
The old Anglican priest hurriedly explained.
"When will the Sector Bishops' Conference be convened?"
"It will be held in the Supreme Cathedral one month later. After the cardinal is elected, he will give an induction speech and hold a three-day procession of believers to celebrate."
"I understand, no one is allowed to come here without my permission!"
After speaking, Della waved the priest in front of her to leave.
Soon the spaceship arrived at Trollope's space station port. A large number of Ecclesiarchy spaceships docked here, and other cardinals in the sector also came here one after another.
The two left the space station without stopping and went to the room arranged by Clemans, the emissary of the Holy See.
Arriving at the bell tower next to the highest church, Taiyue and Della entered the room inside. After a brief exchange, the two unanimously decided to investigate the icon near the highest church first.
The tallest church is more than 6,000 meters high, and there are two rows of huge statues standing next to it. The statues are hundreds of meters high and are statues of imperial saints carved from complete marble.
There is a corridor more than ten kilometers long in the middle of the icon. At the end of the corridor is an open-air square with a fence only half a meter high on the edge.
From the fence, you can see tens of thousands of square kilometers of Believers Square, where related celebrations are held.
Below the Square of the Faithful are criss-crossing dungeons where heretics and heretics were locked up to confess their sins.
Tai Yue came to the icon and suddenly frowned. The icon seemed to emit a faint fragrance, and he immediately used his autonomic ganglion organ to shut down other senses.
The entire aroma became clearer in his mind, with the holy image as the center, and the aroma lingered around it without any sign of dissipating.
"Can you scan to see what's inside the sacred elephant?"
Hearing this, Della asked the servo head to activate the enhanced scan. The red scanning light swept across and a rustling noise sounded.
"The inner building materials of the Holy Elephant contain dense ore or metal, which interferes with the scanning!"
