"Ma'am, I have a question."
After Reina finished speaking, a fat middle-aged man with a beard raised his hand to ask a question, but the voice he made was a female voice.
Reina felt familiar after hearing this female voice, and remembered that she was the first assassin to contact her.
This is a Callidus assassin who can transform into a man or a woman. The reason why she regained her female voice at this time may be to make herself take her problems seriously.
So Rena nodded without hesitation: "Please ask."
"Do you believe that the Governor of the Tyron System is an illegal psyker?" the assassin asked.
"Yes." Rena nodded, "If no one else recognized me, we could have tried everyone in the entire galaxy for harboring illegal psykers!"
After receiving the reply, the assassin nodded silently, as if he was thinking about something. After a moment, he seemed to have figured out the answer and asked a second question: "Why are you so sure that the governor is a heretic?"
"Hunch. My hunch has always been very accurate." Reina answered.
"Okay." The assassin nodded slowly, and she warned Reina, "Things here in the Tyrone Galaxy are more complicated than we thought. We are going to conduct a very secretive operation. If it fails, I will make sure that you will not tell anyone. Nothing happened to us."
"I don't need to make a promise. I can only ask you to kill me if the mission fails. It's that simple." Reina responded firmly.
This attitude made the assassin very satisfied. The assassin nodded, looked at his colleagues, then looked at Rena, and continued to nod with satisfaction.
"For the God Emperor!"
"For the Empire!"
"For the entire human race to survive in the galaxy!"
Reina began to preach passionately to the three assassins in front of her.
"I will do whatever it takes to do things that others dare not do and kill people that others dare not kill!"
"us……"
In the middle of the passionate preaching, the assassin raised his hand and interrupted: "Sorry, we still need some time to prepare, but your preaching is really inspiring."
Reina was not angry because her lecture was interrupted. She just nodded: "Let us do more important things. The assassination plan will officially start in three days!"
The three assassins nodded in agreement, and then disappeared from Reina's eyes in an instant.
……
Two hours later.
Reina sat in her own cabin, kneeling on the ground and smearing the fat of an Anglican priest on the weapon in her hand.
This priest once fought side by side with Reina a hundred and twenty years ago. His noble moral character and loyalty are still unforgettable for Reina, and this piece of fat from a loyal believer is a parting gift voluntarily given by the priest.
A power sword smeared with it can even cut through armor with ease.
While preparing, some sounds and images flashed through Reina's mind from time to time.
The hive world is filled with skeletal remains and a large number of evil marks, as well as blasphemous rituals.
"He, he, he is a threat...a threat to the human species...you must Xuuxu...get rid of him!"
Some laggy sounds echoed in Reina's ears, accompanied by all the blasphemous images that kept flashing and replaying.
This is the reason why she is determined to kill Qin Mo. She firmly believes that she has received a sacred prophecy from some senior inquisition or holy person, or even from the emperor himself.
This is an irresistible command and a mission that must be completed.
"If we spend the next three days doing the ritual, we should be able to chop off that heretic's head with one knife." Reina raised the fat-wiped power sword and looked at it carefully.
This power sword gifted to her by her mentor allows her to successfully complete the mission every time, and she can easily escape when facing powerful enemies.
After admiring the power sword, Reina stood up and walked to the table, took out a diamond-shaped box and laid it flat on the table.
This was another gift from her mentor.
One can establish a mental link and record what the linker wants to record while being in a completely different location than the linker.
To put it bluntly, it is a recording device based on psychic energy.
Lena was not sure whether the operation in three days would be successful. She wanted to leave some traces so that the next successor would be able to complete the great mission.
After debugging the box, Reina's work for the day was completely over. She drank a glass of wine, turned around and lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Lena had a good dream.
She dreamed that she had successfully cut off the head of the heretic leader, and then walked with the head in every area of the hive world, loudly preaching the various blasphemies of the heretic leader.
The civilians stood on the roadside with their heads lowered and dared not speak, the nobles clapped their hands and applauded, and the local Planetary Defense Force guarded her as she walked through every street like a guard.
This dream made Reina sweat with excitement. She panted and turned over on the bed, then continued to sleep.
A second dream soon followed.
Reina felt like she was in a strange place. When she opened her eyes and looked around, she saw an extremely vast metal hall.
The entire hall does not seem to be on the surface of the planet, because when looking out of the window, the moon and sky are not visible outside.
But the palace was not dark, and in the faint light Rena could still distinguish every object here.
There are some huge steel pillars with various photos and videos on them, showing heroic deeds.
A young man with a square-shaped face and a face that was far from handsome either stood in the center of a group of soldiers and took photos with them, or participated in the battle himself.
Chapter 124 Dream? Reality!
In the metal hall, Reina carefully observed everything she could see while moving slowly forward.
Until you finally come to the end of the metal hall, where there is an entrance to a large corridor large enough for the knights to pass.
And in the shadows at the entrance stood a man.
At this time, the light was dim and Lena couldn't see the person's appearance clearly. She slowly approached and asked, "Who are you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the faint light in the hall shone on the man, allowing Reina to see clearly what he looked like.
Wearing Praetorian power armor, holding a fat-covered power sword, and hanging a bolt gun from his waist.
Two of the three items were Reina's own, except for the guard's power armor.
The moment she saw the guard's power armor, Reina tensed up and quickly took a step back, realizing that the person in front of her was a guard.
As far as Lena knew, the Praetorians were terrifying warriors among the heretics who could single-handedly destroy an entire army.
"This is your dream, you are so afraid of me?" the guard said in a cold tone.
Reina relaxed a little. She knew that nothing was strange in her dreams, but she still had the vigilance she should have and did not approach or attack rashly.
"Your weapon." The guard threw the power sword he was leaning on to Lena, and also threw the grenade launcher hanging on his waist to her.
This is a bolt gun used by mortals. The reduced power also reduces the recoil, so that one shot will not shatter the arm. Coupled with the Inquisitor's psychic blessing, using this bolt gun is not a problem.
Reina caught her weapons one by one, holding the power sword in her left hand and the bolter in her right hand, still maintaining a posture ready for battle.
She didn't mind practicing how to kill a guard in her dream.
But the guard didn't mind accompanying her in the drill. He just glanced at her and turned around to enter the corridor entrance.
After walking a few steps, the guard realized that Reina had not followed. He turned to Reina and said: "Follow me, or get out."
Reina hesitated for a moment, then followed.
The two of them walked together in the corridor.
It was a long journey, taking nearly half an hour.
Finally, Rena and the guards came to another hall at the end of the corridor.
The hall was covered with white carpet and had no other decorations.
There is a throne made of pure gold placed under the wall directly in front, and the man seen in the previous photo in the hall is sitting on the throne.
The remaining four guards stood on the left and right in front of the man.
"Heretic!" Lena pointed straight ahead with her power sword, and he recognized the identity of the person on the throne.
It is the so-called Lord of Tyrone.
Qin Mo showed no expression on his face when he was accused of heresy by the inquisitor lady. He just stared at Reina until she realized her situation and calmed down.
"Why are you targeting me so much?" Qin Mo asked, and his voice seemed to echo throughout the hall.
"Because you are a heretic." Lena answered, holding up her sword. "I am not just targeting you, I am also targeting everyone in your galaxy. I want to see the entire galaxy burn in the flames of war, and all the heretics and traitors are burned alive. Ashes, I will chop off your..."
"Wait a moment."
Qin Mo raised his hand to interrupt Reina's impassioned speech, and then modified the question he just asked: "What caused you to target me?"
Reina was stunned by this question. She thought for a moment before answering: "Because the various technological creations you use are blasphemous, it is difficult for me not to judge you as a heretic."
"I understand." Qin Mo nodded, "I will give you a verdict based on what you said, so that you die in peace."
Hearing this, Rena sneered and disapproved.
However, Rena was not as calm as she seemed on the surface. She began to suspect that the dream in front of her was a bit too real.
But having said that, if the other party is a powerful psyker, it is not very difficult to create such a dream. He can even kill a person in the dream.
And Lena also has various ways to escape from the dream.
"You planned an infiltration operation against the hive world. You organized people to kill or kidnap my soldiers. You tried to plan an assassination operation against me. You must die today." Qin Mo said calmly.
Lena was very surprised when she heard about the assassination. She was surprised how she knew about it.
And the words "You must die today", in Reina's opinion, proved her suspicion that the current dream was actually created by a powerful psyker.
Reina realized that she had to evacuate now, because if she really stayed here, the servant who entered her room tomorrow morning would find herself a corpse.
Because the soul has died in this dream.
This would affect subsequent assassination operations. Reina could not accept dying before the start of the attack. She immediately began to recite the spell to break the dream and began to use psychic powers to try to counter the dream.
Qin Mo and the guards looked at Reina quietly.
Reina hoped that they would watch to give her time to escape, and then she continued to recite spells and use psychic powers.
After about ten minutes, Reina found out in embarrassment that she had not been able to get out of the trap and all her methods had failed.
In the original idea, it should take less than two minutes to escape from the dream and wake up in bed.
"You might as well run out from the corridor." Qin Mo reminded, "This is not a dream."
