"Has it started?"
If strictly according to the investigation procedure, it had not really started yet. After all, the Sisters in charge of operating had not started the machine yet. That thing was suddenly activated the moment it came into contact with Zhang Ge.
But obviously, the Sisters of Battle present did not put this small mistake into consideration.
What they cared about most now were the golden lights in the eye sockets of the Pillar of Skulls.
Even Canoness Superior Blythe frowned with a serious expression.
She had seen a lot and had even seen Living Saint, but the current situation was still beyond her cognitive range.
Logically speaking, what should be done now was to keep Zhang Ge sitting in that chair to maintain the stability of the scene until the person who could handle this matter arrived.
However, this general situation was obviously not applicable at the moment. According to Blythe's judgment, this anomaly was likely not - at least not mainly caused by Divine Manifestation, but by the influence of Zhang Ge himself. The subsequent Divine Manifestation was more like...
Ah, that's right.
When this thought flowed through her mind, she suddenly remembered what this situation could correspond to.
Yes, it was more like leakage.
It was rumored that when the Emperor descended into someone's body, his endless psychic power would leak out, even enough to affect the surrounding things and environment. Even Chaos Daemons would have to retreat under that brilliance, and the originally distorted scene would return to harmony with the universal illumination.
This was not like the Blessing of Divine Manifestation, but more like the secondary influence caused by the leakage of this powerful psychic power.
In other words, Zhang Ge caused something to happen at that moment, and then this incident attracted the interference of the Emperor. Although that interference was only a drop in the ocean compared to its boundless power, the remaining part was still enough to Sanctification nearby things, which led to the Pillar of Skulls becoming what it was now.
But why would the Emperor do this? Why not directly issue a decree? Or was it that his actions were not known to us and were part of the plan?
Of course, no matter which possibility it was, since the Emperor's gaze had come and still not judged Zhang Ge, then no one had a higher qualification to judge him.
Canoness Superior Blythe said with a heavy heart:
"The investigation is over. The result is..."
Faced with this brilliance, even the usually straightforward Canoness Blythe could not help but feel confused because she could not understand the Emperor's intention at all. The words that came to her lips were finally changed:
"Is that the data still needs to be further analyzed? It will be obtained before your troops set out. Now, as long as you have Canoness Amilia accompanying you, you can move freely, Colonel Zhang Ge."
The scope, impact, and influence that this matter might involve and cause were too extensive. Even she could not make a decision on it alone. She needed to discuss it with other Sisters and bishops before making a decision.
As for Zhang Ge, since he was in the core and was still kept in the dark, it likely meant that at least the Emperor did not want him to know all the inside information, so it was necessary to temporarily hide it from him.
After thinking about it, Canoness Superior Blythe added:
"As compensation for being investigated, I can agree to one of your not-too-excessive requests to the Adepta Sororitas."
Just as said before, the Sisters of Battle had no mercy for the enemy, but when facing comrades they could trust, they could still show virtue.
In a sense, the Sisters of Battle who were largely dependent on the Emperor's Blessing were somewhat similar to "Daemons" in the opposite direction. The closer they were to the Emperor, the closer they were to the humans he hoped to create.
Even if Zhang Ge had not shown the previous anomaly, but simply passed the investigation, Blythe would still give a certain compensation. It was just that the initial thinking caused her to forget it temporarily.
As for Zhang Ge, who was still sitting in that position, he was in a daze.
Huh? It's over?
No, what about the feeling of losing consciousness that was said earlier? What about being burned by flames and then soaring into the sky while sitting?
In the first half, something did lose consciousness, but it was not Zhang Ge, but the machine under his butt.
In the second half, it had now become a purely fantasy time.
He got up somewhat confused. Hearing Canoness Superior Blythe propose that he could request compensation, Zhang Ge subconsciously said what he wanted, and then sat back down:
"Can you start this machine again?"
Canoness Superior Blythe's eyes twitched when she saw him sit down again. Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened this time:
"Colonel Zhang Ge, don't joke in this situation."
Amilia, who was also confused but chose to believe in Zhang Ge, went around to Zhang Ge's side from the other side and smoothed things over:
"Since he hasn't figured it out yet, why don't you let me convey it after he thinks of it?"
"Hmm, that's okay too."
After answering, she looked at Amilia thoughtfully. After the situation just now, Blythe roughly understood why she was protecting a "stranger" she had just met not long ago.
She then said:
"Canoness Amilia, please come with me first. I need to ask you some things."
Hearing this, Amilia looked at Zhang Ge - who had no mind to care about what they were going to say at this time - and nodded helplessly, thinking about where he had won.
That's not right. Logically speaking, carrying a sword given by a great Daemon should be a sure thing. A weapon that had been taken and teleported by a great Daemon, Zhang Ge couldn't think of a second reason for it to pass the inspection other than this broken machine being broken.
Warp evil energy has always been something that turns small things into big things and turns big things into nothing. How could it let me go so easily?
Zhang Ge got up again, took a few steps forward and turned his head to look back, only to find that the skulls had all fallen silent at some point. The light in the eye sockets that could show their activity had all been extinguished.
He still wanted to struggle, and said, "This sword..."
One of the Seraphim Sisters said:
"We did not doubt your words, but Macragge's Honour could be rescued from the clutches of Archenemy Forces, so why can't a sword be? Doesn't this show the Emperor's power even more?"
Damn, the voice is pretty good, but how can the hatting be so smooth?
Zhang Ge felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this.
The words had been said to this point. Wasn't denying it denying the "Emperor's power"? In the case of a circle of elite Sisters of Battle, wasn't that purely looking for death?
Gua! It must... it must be this evil sword that has blinded the eyes of the Sisters!
I will endure it temporarily. Within five days, I will definitely find out the flaws of you, this evil sword, and then use that request to call the Sisters of Battle again, and finally seal you at the cost of my life.
Zhang Ge, who could not think of the reason for the time being, could only blame it on Ascalon again, comforting himself in his heart.
