Warhammer: I don’t want to be a can of worms! ! !

Endurance, Think Tank Library.

past.

Fernando sat opposite Ugo and looked at Ugo seriously.

"Are you saying that when that recruit came into contact with you, you felt that your psychic abilities were suppressed?"

Ugo nodded silently.

"But you didn't feel sick until you had full contact with him."

"Yes, teacher."

Fernando was silent. In terms of ability alone, he looked very much like an untouchable.

But among the untouchables he had ever known and come into contact with, he had never been as strange as this new recruit.

Fernando then recalled Barasin's meaningful conversation with him after Ugo's duel with Hades.

"That recruit, Hades, had received weapons from the Emperor."

"It's a scythe, but Sister Silence is holding it the whole time."

Barasin looked at him again.

"Fernando, you're still not very good at pretending."

"You've obviously changed since that hulk incident."

Fernando was silent.

But Balazin did not press forward step by step;

"I don't understand psychic powers, but I believe in you. If you need anything, come to me."

"Besides, don't put too much pressure on me. In my emergency plan, I always have a response plan for the library's psychic leakage incident."

"I have also been paying attention to the black ships in this star field and can contact them at any time."

Fernando spoke, his voice hoarse,

"if."

If this kind of thing is discovered, will their army really not be wiped out?

Did Balazin really know the seriousness of this matter, or could he only make a rough guess?

Fernando doesn't know.

But he still prefers to resolve the matter internally.

".No, thank you, Barazin."

Even if the recruit may not be untouchable, it is still possible as long as he has the corresponding abilities.

It must be done as soon as possible. "It" is growing.

He needed to meet the recruit as soon as possible before making a decision.

Maybe at this time, he needs a divination.

Endurance, Think Tank Library.

Now.

.

This is a library managed by the Death Guard Think Tank. Countless books are packed tightly on the shelves, many of which are unique and authentic. Thousands of years of wisdom sleeps here.

The lights in the library, which was originally relatively bright, were all turned off at this moment, and silent darkness enveloped the entire room.

In the center of the library, surrounded by bookshelves, there was a faint white light—

Fernando sat in the middle of the library, with a set of pure black playing cards placed in front of him.

Around him, some blood-stained and old weapons were arranged in an orderly manner, with swords, bolters, and three unlit candles from the melta gun interspersed in an orderly manner.

Some of these weapons were weapons used by previous generations of Librarians, and some were honors bestowed by the Emperor after the war was won.

Golden prayers were densely engraved on the ground, with Fernando and the empty space opposite him as the center of the circle, radiating outward.

As if alive, the content of these prayers is constantly twisting and turning.

Fernando closed his eyes tightly, and psychic lightning danced around his head, like a white crown of thorns.

There was still half a standard Terra hour before the meeting time he agreed with Hades.

If they are untouchable, they cannot intervene directly in divination, and their presence will destroy the psyker's connection with the Warp.

Therefore, Fernando can only choose a time and space that is close to Hades and replace the occupier with an empty space.

In this world, capable psykers will use different methods, in the name of prophecy, to capture psychic energy fluctuations from the subspace without the concept of time, in order to interpret their past, present, and future.

The think tank in the legion will also conduct divination to predict the situation before every important battle.

In battle, it is also very common to predict the opponent's actions in a short period of time.

Fernando calmed down his will, followed his usual divination feeling, and devoted himself to communicating with the subspace.

White light burst out, and the prayers began to glow faintly, as if they came alive, constantly twisting and climbing onto the placed weapons, like golden chains, tightly tying them.

The stack of tarot cards suddenly floated up, both sides were pure black, and began to be shuffled in a dazzling way.

The Tarot cards floated and soon turned into a row of arches, with large gaps between each card.

This time, Fernando chose the Holy Triangle based on the recent horoscopes.

Shuffle the cards three times and draw the seventh card, representing "past", "present" and "future".

The tarot cards began to spin, and a tear of blood left the corner of Fernando's eyes.

one two three four five six--

seven!

As if it was suddenly pulled away by a huge force, the seventh card quickly drew a curve in the air and landed straight on one of the three equal points of the circular prayer.

Sparks flickered, and a candle suddenly lit up.

[The past] is determined.

The remaining cards floating in the air quickly rotated, moved, and the order was reshuffled again.

seven.

A card was suddenly drawn, and at the same time, flames burst out on the candle.

[Now] it’s clear.

The power of subspace drives the appearance of the last card.

seven.

The last candle was lit and the tarot cards fell silently on the circle.

[The future] is coming.

The remaining tarot cards returned to their places one after another, the psychic energy fluctuations began to shrink, and the luminous prayers gradually faded. Soon, except for the three tarot cards lying quietly and the three burning candles, everything was gone again. All restored to their original state.

+a sneer+

Fernando opened his eyes, blood and tears streaming down his face.

On the black row surface, cumbersome and complex patterns began to appear.

The first card, in the direction facing Fernando, is rendered with bright yellow light and a full circle rises——

[Star Reversed]

Since it is a proxy occupation, facing Fernando's reverse position means Hades's upright position.

The divination tablet positions of the two of them are exactly opposite.

However, divination will also reflect the fate of the fortune teller.

The positive position of a star means the realization of hopes and ideals.

This refers to Hades on Barbarus, helping the Primarch unify the planet?

But Fernando, the inverse of the star, felt his heart skip a beat.

Failure, helplessness. And he remembered again the star emblem carved on the hulk.

No, no, divination cannot predict such concrete things.

Fernando stabilized his mind, concentrated his attention, and went to check the next card.

Outlined with straight lines, the huge aesthetic machine that takes up the entire card slowly steps out——

[Titan's position]

Titans, these powerful war machines on the battlefield, position themselves to take the initiative, seize the opportunity, and - candor.

Perhaps, during the conversation with Hades, Fernando should be more frank.

Reversal means loss of control, accidents, and plans being ruined.

Fernando frowned, maybe he should warn the next visitor.

And the third card symbolizes the future——

Weird colors are splashed on the cards in disorder, with no rules at all and no rules to follow, and random lines are filled with twists and turns.

[Wheel of Fate]

However, the only place where the positive and negative positions can be distinguished is a hole, as if it was burned by fire——

This card is twisted! ! !

Not to mention that in the previous divination, Fernando had never divined this card. Even in the previous battles where the legion suffered heavy sacrifices, he had never divined this card!

Not to mention, the upright and reverse positions of this card are distorted!

The [Wheel of Fortune] in the upright position represents opportunities and changes, while in the reverse position it represents failure caused by errors in judgment.

But under normal circumstances, [Wheel of Fortune] will not appear. The meaning of this card is really too great.

Fernando was silent.

The door of the library was pushed open, and at the appointed time, Hades walked in——

Then he saw Fernando crying with blood and strange weapons on the ground.

Hades was silent.

Shouldn't he come at this time?

Is it too late to leave now?

The Hammer contains the Emperor Tarot Card, but it seems to have been released after the Great Rebellion, and there was no such thing in the early stages.

So I adapted it by combining the Emperor Tarot and Tarot cards. The Holy Triangle deck is indeed the way Tarot cards are played in reality, but I added a little bit of my own design.

Happy reading(_)
