Chapter 300: Life is really tough
In fact, Gu Hang’s original plan was somewhat risky.
Directly pull Galardo's soul and enter the Kingdom of Storm God. If things go smoothly and are completed in one second, then there will be no problem. But if this guy has any special preparations, pulling it in the middle will leave traces.
Even though Gu Hang would certainly disguise the traces left behind, and the official investigation team of the Empire would not arrive for a long time, by this time, no matter what subspace aura was left behind, it would eventually dissipate.
As for the local capabilities of Koroja 3, the Psychic Order is useless, and the Inquisition has no direct branch in the Pegasus region, so there is no need to worry. However, the nuns of the Holy Lily of Mercy are a bit troublesome, especially since many of them have been to the Wrathful Owl for a period of time, and even directly joined the fight against the Storm Cult. There is a chance that these nuns will see through Gu Hang's disguise and realize that this thing comes from the Warp Evil God on the Wrathful Owl that should have been destroyed.
As a result, Gu Hang, as the only person from the Angry Owl Star present, became more and more suspicious.
With the help of the plague demon, there will be no such worries.
For Gu Hang, the best outcome, of course, would be for these plague demons to run out and kill Gallardo directly.
The War Apostle was killed by a demon who rushed out of a crack in the abyss in a world invaded by demons. It was an accident, and perhaps there was a conspiracy, but no matter how they investigated, it should not and could not be blamed on Gu Hang.
It's true that he is an A-class psychic, but even the most powerful S-class, or even the legendary Alpha-class psychic who can tear a planet apart, has never been heard of being able to open an abyss rift out of thin air with bare hands - this is not within the scope of a psychic's ability.
Gu Hang was able to do this because he borrowed the essence of the Lesser God of the Subspace. Gu Hang could also let people check this, as long as he didn't reveal it, it wouldn't be found out.
Moreover, he stood up and saved so many people during the demon attack; before Gallardo disappeared, he also tried his best to rescue him, and these facts happened in full view of everyone.
The reason why Gu Hang did that was, on the one hand, that he did not want to implicate too many people. If all the upper-class figures of the Tianma star region here in the banquet hall were caught in one fell swoop, it would cause huge chaos in the entire star region. On the other hand, he also tried to clear himself of suspicion by doing so.
As for exposing his psychic power level, it would be exposed anyway. As long as the Empire investigated everyone present at the time, Gu Hang's powerful psychic power level would be impossible to hide.
As long as there is no evidence of the subspace secondary god, it will be fine.
But unfortunately, Gu Hang had overestimated Galardo's ability. He didn't expect that this guy was so powerful that even so many demons couldn't kill him.
In the end, Gu Hang still took action and took the initiative to tear open a subspace crack under his feet. There was no need to pull in the soul, but to just send the whole person in.
Moreover, in order to avoid leaving any loopholes, Gu Hang did not even pull this guy into the Storm Kingdom, but kept the crack between the Kingdom of God and the Father's domain connected and sent the man directly into the Father's home.
This way, there will be no risk of any consequences.
Even if you ask Gallardo himself, he doesn't know that it was Gu Hang who did it. He only knew that he was attacked by a plague demon and was pulled into the subspace, where he was in a realm full of poison, plague, and despair. This feeling was exactly the same as the demon that attacked him.
As for Gu Hang? Wasn't he a good guy who helped me a lot and tried to save me in the end, but unfortunately he failed?
Of course, Gu Hang didn’t think that the war apostle would have the chance to say all this in person, which was a bit of a pity.
Thinking of this, Gu Hang, whose consciousness upgraded to the kingdom of God, closed his eyes and used his psychic perception to search for the target.
When dragging Gallardo away, Gu Hang deliberately left a mark on him. It had no other use, except to allow him to sense and track his specific situation.
It is convenient to confirm that the guy is indeed dead.
However, what surprised him a little was that Gallardo was not dead yet.
This guy is really lucky.
It has been almost two days since I was tricked into the domain of the 'kind father', right?
It's a bit exaggerated that he didn't die.
Gu Hang asked himself, if he were in the same situation, leaving aside the special situation of the sub-space secondary god origin that he controlled, relying solely on psychic power, he would probably reach his limit in two days.
Although he had not tried it himself, it was painful and tormenting for humans to be in the domain of the loving father. Not to mention that they would be constantly attacked by plague demons, the environment alone was enough to corrode people into a mass of rotten flesh that was immortal but painful.
This is the "kind father". It seems to "love" all living things - including parasites, viruses, bacteria, cancer cells in the human body...
In Gu Hang's perception, there was a golden force protecting Gallardo.
That is the blessing from the Emperor.
In the real world, the power of the Emperor's blessing is roughly equivalent to that of an A-level psyker. But in the Warp, although in the Father's domain, it is essentially closer to the Emperor's spiritual network. As the connection strengthens, the Emperor's blessing becomes more powerful.
This is the core reason why Gallardo has been able to persist for so long.
But there is a limit to that. He only received the blessing of the Emperor of God, and it was not the Emperor of God who had to save his life. After staying in the abyss of hell full of malice for a long time, Gu Hang did not believe that he could survive for long!
Taking his attention away from him, Gu Hang started to check the situation of his Storm Kingdom.
Before, in order to tear open the abyss rift, Gu Hang used the Kingdom of Storm God as a channel connecting the real world and the abyss hell. That did allow a large number of plague demons to descend directly on Galardo, but the Kingdom of Storm God was also invaded by plague demons.
Those plague demons are not Gu Hang's subordinates, and they will not listen to him.
In order to wipe out these demons, the heroic warriors in the Storm God's Kingdom paid a heavy price.
It is true that the losses and depletion are huge, but it is not without gain.
First, this is a battle settlement.
[Storm Kingdom Battle Settlement:]
[Winning a bloody battle, gaining 884 points of grace]
[3121 lost, 4152 eliminated]
Among the invading plague demons, there were many relatively low-level monsters such as plague zombies, plague spirits, and plague giant flies, but there were also powerful creatures such as plague bearers. Not to mention, the expelled rotten dragon was also stranded in the Kingdom of Storm God.
The dragon was very powerful. Even though it was hit by many anti-aircraft artillery fire in the sky above Mingyan City and suffered heavy losses in the swarms of plague flies that protected it, it also suffered many wounds from Galaldos' golden beams and the bolters and sharp blades of the subsequent combat nuns who rode flying motorcycles into the sky.
But it's still powerful.
Just to destroy it, Gu Hang's heroic warriors paid at least six hundred lives.
However, although the enemy's individual strength is strong on average, the scale of the battle is not large overall and the losses on our side are not small, so the evaluation is only "a bloody victory", resulting in a low reward coefficient.
All in all, the total number of grace points is only about 800.
For Gu Hang now, the consumption level of the system is very high, and his monthly fixed income of grace points has reached more than three thousand. He no longer cares much about the grace of more than eight hundred points.
However, the benefits of destroying so many demons in the Kingdom of Storm God are not just in terms of grace points.
After these demons are killed, their subspace origins will also remain here.
And these things are the nourishment of the Storm God Kingdom.
Although those corpses, left here, turned into a mass of pus, which was quite disgusting, but in fact, if we spend some time to remove the pollution, the remaining ones can be digested, thus strengthening the depth and breadth of the entire kingdom of God.
Killing and devouring other abyss demons is equivalent to seizing the power of other evil gods.
Of course, to the great and loving father, this is not even as important as a drop of water in the ocean, and he has no feeling at all.
Gu Hang even thought to himself that he might as well try this trick again. He could open the passage between the Kingdom of Storms and other subspace evil gods' realms for a while, especially when Gu Hang was still in Koroga 3, very close to the Father's realm.
Trick the demons into coming in and kill them. After killing them, you can increase your grace points, and you can also digest their subspace original energy to strengthen your own kingdom of God.
However, he quickly kicked out this suicidal idea.
Indeed, killing thousands or tens of thousands of ordinary demons would not be a big deal to the "kind father". But no matter what, he would be prepared for the worst.
If by any chance, the father's eyes glanced here, it would be all over.
Being in the subspace, without the 'veil of reality' that the more powerful the demon, the harder it is to break through, there is nowhere to escape.
Not to mention attracting the attention of the 'kind father', even if only a big demon or a big unclean person came, Gu Hang would be in great trouble.
Even if Gu Hang's personal strength is good now, plus the bonus of the Kingdom of God, he can fight to kill a big demon in the home environment, but the big trouble will come later. It is normal for the second, third, or even seven or eight big unclean ones to come at the same time.
It's better not to do such suicidal things.
…
After resting for a day, Gu Hang returned to the scene of the crime.
This place has been kept almost as it was then, without any cleaning or tidying up.
The guards guard this place tightly.
At the scene, the Sister of Battle, the representative of the Order of Psionic Power, a bishop of the State Religion, and a technical priest of the Order of Mechanicus were already waiting there.
The people in the lead were, of course, the leaders of the nuns here: Sister Grit, and Bishop Zhao Qinghong of the state religion.
However, after Gu Hang arrived, the person with the most enthusiastic attitude was the representative of the Psychic Order.
His name is Wang Yuyang, he is the head of the Pegasus Psychic Order, he usually stays on Feiyi Star, where the Pegasus Psychic Order headquarters is also located. This time, as a representative of the Psychic Order, he also received an invitation from Gallardo to come to Koroja 3 to attend the banquet.
Normally, he was always called the 'Great Mage' in Feiyi Star, and was praised highly - in fact, he did have a very high status.
Wang Yuyang's attitude was very enthusiastic and caring. He did not talk about the main business of the investigation, but instead kept introducing the situation of the Psychic Order in the Tianma Star Region.
Gu Hang: There is nothing awkward about it. If you want to chat, I will chat with you.
During the communication process, he roughly understood the reason for Wang Yuyang's attitude.
The Order of Psychic Powers is a large organization that manages psychics in the empire. It has a non-fixed seat on the Imperial Supreme Council, which shows its importance.
However, unlike the two powerful religious organizations, the Ecclesiarchy and the Adeptus Mechanicus, the Adeptus Psionicus is more like an organization of scholars. Its organizational structure is relatively loose, and the superior leaders have relatively weak control over their subordinates. It is not like the Ecclesiarchy with its Altar World or the Adeptus Mechanicus with its Forge World as fixed territories, nor does it have its own military forces such as the Sisters of Battle and the Mechanical Crusader Army.
It has three major institutions under its jurisdiction: the Star Language Department, the Star Guidance Department, and the Star Law Department.
The Star Language Department is responsible for training Star Language practitioners who can build and maintain Star Language Towers;
The Star Guidance Department is responsible for training navigators who will be on board to guide starships through star tunnel jumps;
The Star Law Hall trains combat psychics for the Imperial Navy and Army.
But in the Pegasus star region... there is no such detailed division, there is only one psychic order that sends out an agency.
The main reason is that it's too lame.
But does Wang Yuyang want this?
He doesn't want to either.
But his abilities are limited. What can he do as a C-level psychic?
Over the years, he has also accepted many students, but not many have been able to break through to the D level. Most of them are at the E level, and their combat effectiveness is barely enough to be able to fight against armed infantry with bare hands with a 70:30 ratio.
That definitely means you have no say.
However, the appearance of Gu Hang gave him great hope!
In the Psychic Order, if there are ten thousand low-level psychics, they are not as useful as one high-level psychic.
He still remembered Gu Hang. Although he was not his student, he was the son of the Gu family and was also registered in the Psychic Order on Feiyi Star.
This must be considered as the achievement of the Pegasus Psychic Order! If he reports to his superiors that he has an A-level psychic, his status will rise a lot instantly, and direct rewards will make him rich.
However, the only thing is... Gu Hang has to cooperate a little.
After all, he didn't really train Gu Hang. If Gu Hang hadn't shown his strength in the crisis, he wouldn't have known it beforehand!
Gu Hang was also quite interested in this.
The Psychic Order...seems like it's something that can be used.
Especially since the Pegasus Order was still very weak, he even had an idea: was it possible to move the headquarters of the Pegasus Order to the Angry Owl Star?
How about even opening a branch?
This can be used to deduct taxes, obtain funding from the Psychic Order, and obtain more orthodox methods of training psychics...
The most important thing is that Wrathful Owl Star already has unique conditions, and Gu Hang has the idea of training more psychics in the future. Introducing the power of the empire's official power can provide a good explanation for the large number of new psychics.
While the two were chatting happily, a light cough was heard from the side.
Sister Grit, who was familiar with Gu Hang, came up and said, "I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation. But we can talk about it later. Today, we still have to solve the current problem... Your Excellency the Governor, we really need your help this time. Thank you for your help."
Grit was still very respectful towards Gu Hang. For her, this was not the first time she had witnessed Governor Gu's strength. They had also cooperated well in the mission of eliminating the cultists on the Angry Owl Star.
Gu Hang readily agreed: "Okay, Master Wang, we'll talk later, let's get down to business first."
