Of course, that was only after one managed to get past her bloodthirsty and battle-hungry nature, which was certainly most prevalent.
"Maybe if I found something interesting, but once these Psykers lose access to the Immaterium, they would be ripe for picking up."
In fact, I didn't really have much interest in the fight because the moment when the Dawn Pillars were activated, then all of the Psykers would be mostly powerless. If they didn't train their physique and were in close-quarter combat, then they would be just chickens ripe for killing.
Not to mention, I wasn't even able to sense someone particularly strong that would essentially pique my interest in the fight. Aside from tinkering with the technology, I would most probably leave the fight to the Partas Tribe.
The Frozen Coven was almost exclusively made from the Psyker, Sorcerers, and other users of the Warp. If this was taken out of the equation, then they would be mostly powerless, armed with only a few scraps of technology that they had and nothing else.
"Ts... I understand that sentiment... Frozen Coven is made exclusively from the Sorcerers; with your gadgets activated, they would not be any threat. Aside from breaching some of the physical obstacles in our path, that is..."
I nodded to what Esdeath said, and during our time, I finished all the checkups on the machinery; I then activated the Dawn Pillars. Soon enough, all tremendously large monoliths started glowing with an ominous green color and covering the entire region where the headquarters of the Frozen Coven was located.
"The Dawn Pillars have been activated; after approximately forty seconds, they will be fully activated, and everything will be turned into an Anti-Psyker Zone."
Because the Partas Tribe wanted to obtain the complete legacy of the Frozen Coven, they couldn't use the heavy artillery or anything very destructive in case something fell onto the library and turned everything into ash.
That would certainly be problematic.
However, the Frozen Coven was reduced to nothingness as their Psyker powers were their strongest and, most probably, only sole card. Esdeath was confident that their soldiers could overcome the resistance from the Frozen Coven with some effort.
She didn't really take the Frozen Coven seriously without their Psyker Powers, and I understood the sentiment because I saw this scenario several times in the Kadath Universe.
The Chthonian Empire of the Baator annihilated countless factions that were very dependent on some type of Energy with the usage of the Pylons.
And as we talked, the greenish dome appeared around the entire region, and unbeknownst to the armies of the Partas Tribe that were getting into the formation and preparing to attack, the Sorcerers within the high walls of the Frozen Coven were panicking.
Panic was a weak word for the state that was happening right now within the Frozen Coven.
The Dawn Pillars were really too effective, and everything even remotely connected to the Immaterium was immediately severed, and all Psykers of the Frozen Coven not only found themselves without connection to the Immaterium, but they were also suffering very heavy backlash from the sudden loss of connection to the Immaterium.
The more powerful the Sorcerer was, the heavier and more severe the side effects of the sudden cut of the connection were, as some of them were even crippled on the spot if they couldn't handle the backlash.
Some of them fell unconscious the moment they lost their connection to the Warp, and this happened all over the headquarters of the Frozen Coven. It didn't help the situation; the fact that all of the higher-ups Psykers, especially the military leaders of the Frozen Coven, were all exclusively Psykers.
One could say that this one move managed to incapacitate all of the higher-ups of the Frozen Coven. In their current state, they were not even capable of putting up any resistance, as their entire chain of command was destroyed.
This was the case for many factions that were heavily magic-oriented or so, where all of their leadership and higher-ups were exclusively mages. And when the magic was taken out of the equation, the entire faction was like a headless chicken, which was the exact same scenario that was right now happening to the Frozen Coven.
It was also a perfect opportunity for the armies of the Partas Tribe because the soldiers and hunters had already started approaching the gates of the fortress in orderly formation, facing something that could be called minimal resistance.
That's another good point for them right now.
I must admit that it was also entertaining to watch, the chaos that erupted within the headquarters of the Frozen Coven when the Dawn Pillars were activating and the unstoppable march of the Partas Tribe that was already in front of their gates, planting some explosives there to destroy the gate.
In the end, unfortunately for the Frozen Coven, I could tell that approximately 80% of their defenses were basically related to the Immaterium, and only something around 20% of their defenses were in a pure technological manner.
With the Dawn Pillars in the play, one could say that the Frozen Coven was almost defenseless against the advance of the Partas Tribe. I also marveled at their bad luck because it seemed that even a large part of their soldiery was affected by the Dawn Pillars.
Even their ordinary soldiers were dabbling in the Psykery...
Fortunately enough, we manufactured small badges that were able to protect the members of the Partas Tribe from the side effects of the Dawn Pillars being activated.
Even though the Partas Tribesmen won't be able to use their Psyker Powers, due to their lineages of the Danger Beasts and the badges that I had them wear, they were facing just some minor uncomfortable feelings...
Thus, they were able to retain the majority of their strength even under the suppression of the Dawn Pillars on everything related to the Immaterium, and right now, the first groups of soldiers and hunters were able to breach the gates of the Frozen Coven and unleashed slaughter on the inhabitants.
