Chapter 28 Breaking King Kayan
Chapter 28 Breaking King Kayan
The hatch slid open, and a blond, blue-eyed local recruit from Prospero walked in. He didn't salute, but his chin was slightly raised.
"Chief, my name is Kayan. I'm a psionic genius and also an intern at the think tank. The senior members there are too incompetent to teach me, so I want to learn from you. I greatly admire your abilities. Let me tell you..."
Li Wei was stunned. He hadn't expected that this troublesome new recruit who came to his door was actually the future "King of Breakers," Kayan.
Kayan's psionic talent is no less than, and no less than, that of Ahriman; his title "Kingbreaker" says it all.
Because ten thousand years later, Kayan used his psionic powers to suppress Magnus, who had fallen into chaos, forcing him to kneel before Warmaster Abaddon.
Even though he was threatening Senko's life.
But this is enough to prove that Kayan has extremely high psychic talent, and it also shows that he is a ruthless character who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
We need to discipline Kayan as soon as possible to prevent him from going down the wrong path that ruined both Chizuru and himself.
As for whether the person in front of him was "King of the Hill" Kayan, judging from his arrogant words and demeanor, Li Wei was almost certain.
"My lord, what's your decision? Would you like to become my psychic mentor?"
Seeing that Levi hadn't spoken for a while, Kayan assumed that the other man was stunned by his talent and was hesitating about how to ask him to stay, so he became more and more smug.
Li Wei listened to these arrogant words without even lifting his eyelids, when a gentle yet irresistible psionic pressure suddenly descended upon him.
Kayan, who was still rambling on, froze, his knees buckled and he almost knelt down, his face turning deathly pale.
He was then shocked to realize that the seemingly exhausted man in front of him possessed a psychic power far exceeding all his expectations.
"You say you're a psionic genius?" Li Wei calmly withdrew his oppressive aura. "I happen to need an adjutant. From now on, you'll be working for me. Remember, with me, ability always trumps temper."
"If you dare to be unruly again or speak ill of your seniors, you'd better get back to the research unit immediately and become an ordinary soldier, not a respected think tank member."
Kayan gritted his teeth and stood up straight, his arrogance largely gone, but he still stubbornly replied, "Yes, Chief. I won't let you regret this."
"Reporting to the think tank headquarters tomorrow, my practitioner, Mr. Kayan."
Li Wei emphasized the word "practitioner" with disdain, casually twirling a quill pen engraved with runes in his fingertips.
Hearing the clearly mocking address, Kayan knew that Li Wei was giving him a warning, openly mocking his low strength and unworthy of his arrogance.
Because in Magnus's psionic system, practitioners are at the fourth level of the tenth level of psionic realm, having just emerged from the apprentice stage, and can only stably release basic psionic energy.
"Yes, see you tomorrow, Exonerated One!"
Kayan, unconvinced, immediately revealed Li Wei's level of psychic power.
Li Wei raised an eyebrow. Kayan was indeed incredibly talented, able to accurately determine his spiritual energy level based solely on that single burst of spiritual energy pressure.
Before he cultivated the Abyss Resonance Technique, his psychic energy level was only at the Philosopher level, which is only one level higher than the Practitioner level.
However, after mastering the Abyss Resonance Technique, his spiritual talent exploded, and his realm soared to the eighth level of the tenth level, reaching the realm of the Exemptor.
He has far surpassed all of the psionic warriors in the Thousand Sons, second only to Magnus himself.
Watching Kayan slam the door shut and leave with his neck stiff, Li Wei helplessly rubbed his throbbing temples.
Ahriman, a stubborn and obsessive individual, and Kayan, an arrogant and disdainful individual, are the two top psionic geniuses of the Thousand Sons, each with their own fatal flaws.
If things continue like this, Senko will inevitably fall into the hands of these two sooner or later. No wonder Magnus wanted him to oversee the establishment of the think tank headquarters and take control of the overall situation.
He shook his head, temporarily suppressing these worries, and turned his gaze to the silver-white warship quietly moored in space outside the porthole.
He finally had the most reliable answer to the problem that had been troubling him for so long.
An hour later, Li Wei stood in Magnus's study, his face bearing just the right amount of weariness and guilt.
"My Lord Archmage, the contamination on that Golden Age ship is far deeper than I anticipated. The warp imprint deep within the hull has become completely integrated with the core engine. Forcibly cleaning it will only trigger a secondary explosion, or even tear open a warp gap large enough to engulf the entire fleet."
Magnus frowned, his expression grim.
Even from hundreds of kilometers away in space, he could feel the chilling, ominous aura emanating from that warship, and he knew that Li Wei never spoke without certainty.
"So what do you mean?"
"The only option is permanent warp exile." Li Wei lowered his eyes, his tone heavy. "Throw it into a warp rift, let it drift forever in the void currents. At least that way, it won't threaten the Empire's territory."
Magnus was silent for a moment, then finally sighed regretfully, "Let's do it your way. It's a pity, I was hoping to acquire a powerful Glory Queen-class warship."
Three days later, under the watchful eyes of all the warships in the combined fleet, the silver-white warship was slowly towed to the designated star field by the engineering ship.
A heavy engineering vessel specializing in hazardous materials disposal was the first to activate its overloaded subspace engine, forcibly tearing open a stable temporary subspace rift. It then used twelve heavy traction beams to lock the silver-white warship in place, slowly pushing it into the void where purple-black lightning was rolling.
The crack then slowly closed, as if nothing had ever happened.
Just when everyone thought the matter was over.
Only Li Wei knew that his plan could be put into action.
He intends to infiltrate the Warp and sell the ship as a spirit.
He returned to his lounge, set up seven layers of psionic barriers, and had Kayan stand guard outside the door to prevent anyone from disturbing him.
After confirming that everything was in perfect order, Li Wei sank his mind into the third level. Relying on the absolute focus and soul anchoring ability brought by this level of mind, he guided his soul to smoothly separate from his body.
Then, the soul, glowing with a soft white light, transformed into an invisible stream of light and silently slipped into the chaotic subspace.
It was cold and shivering.
This was Li Wei's first impression of the warp; he always felt like he was naked, and he knew why.
Because it is freed from the constraints of the physical body, the soul is directly exposed to the unprotected subspace, just like standing naked on an extremely cold ice field, which is why it feels so bone-chilling.
He had traveled through the subspace countless times aboard a warship, but this was the first time he had come here alone in spirit form.
In fact, the warriors of the Thousand Sons all enjoy traveling through the Warp in spirit form, because they are the darlings of the Warp and thrive there.
It was because Li Wei had some reservations that he hesitated to enter the subspace in his soul form.
This time, it's not just about selling the silver-white ships, but also about finding a way to break through the Abyss Resonance Technique and become a formal wizard.
He had been stuck at the Wizard Apprentice level for a long time, and he suspected that it was because he had not had close contact with the warp.
He suspected it was because he had reservations about the subspace.
If you don't embrace the abyss, how can you talk about controlling it?
A moment later.
His Abyss Resonance Technique activated spontaneously, freeing him from the biting cold and giving his soul a feeling of being at ease.
Li Wei looked at the bizarre, twisted, and churning subspace psionic turbulence before him, quickly determined its location, and sped off.
He had already placed a psionic marker in the core of the silver-white ship.
However, as Li Wei's glowing white soul body approached the warship, it spotted a gaunt figure not far away, wearing a gray robe stained with oil and clutching a rusty wrench.
He was crouching furtively on the hull, using the black psionic energy at his fingertips to corrode this colonial ship from the Golden Age.
