Aboard?the Eternal Crusader, the Battle Barge t at serves as High Marshal Helbrecht's flagship and mobile fortress monastery of the Chapter, lies the Hall of Records, a vast archive where a legion of scribes and servitors toil to record the history and deeds of the Black Templars' far-flung forces. Such duties of record keeping would normally fall to a Chapter's Librarians, but the Black Templars Chapter boasts not single psychic Space Marine amongst its ranks.?

在大元帥赫爾布萊切特的旗艦以及戰(zhàn)團(tuán)的移動(dòng)要塞修道院——“永恒遠(yuǎn)征軍”號(hào)戰(zhàn)列母艦上，陳列著一座記錄大廳，大群的抄寫(xiě)員和機(jī)仆在這間巨大的檔案館中努力記錄著黑色圣堂戰(zhàn)團(tuán)那些分布廣泛的部隊(duì)的歷史和事跡。此類(lèi)進(jìn)行記錄的職責(zé)正常來(lái)說(shuō)都是由戰(zhàn)團(tuán)的智庫(kù)們承擔(dān)，但黑色圣堂就是以自己的部隊(duì)中不存在靈能星際戰(zhàn)士為榮的戰(zhàn)團(tuán)。

It is uncertain how, or when, the Black Templars ceased to field Librarians, for with their disappearance, much of the Chapter's history was also lost. Outsiders suggest that as the Chapter came to worship the Emperor as a god, they took his decree at the Edict of Nikaea to disband their Librarius divisions as holy law. Others whisper that the Black Templars' gehe-seed has somehow deteriorated, or that their Librarians were slain during a great war in the Chapter's history. Some scholars point to the Black Templars' final battle to end the Catelexis Heresy of M34, and the apocalyptic psychic death-screams that tore through the warp after the slaying of the Cacodominus, as another possible explanation. Whatever the truth, the Black Templars have come to accept the loss of their Librarians as part of the Emperor's divine plan. If the Emperor decides to once again bless the Black Templars with Librarians, they will embrace it, but until that day, they will wage battle without these powerful warriors at their side.?

我們無(wú)法確定黑色圣堂戰(zhàn)團(tuán)是在什么時(shí)候以何種方式停止使用智庫(kù)，因?yàn)殡S著他們的消失，戰(zhàn)團(tuán)也遺失了自己的大部分歷史。外人聲稱(chēng)：由于黑色圣堂戰(zhàn)團(tuán)開(kāi)始將帝皇視為神明進(jìn)行禱告，所以他們也將帝皇在尼凱亞敕令中解散智庫(kù)部門(mén)的旨意視為一條神圣的律法。其他人則在閑言碎語(yǔ)中說(shuō)黑色圣堂的基因種子產(chǎn)生了某些方面的惡化，或者稱(chēng)他們的智庫(kù)死在了戰(zhàn)團(tuán)歷史上某次偉大戰(zhàn)役中。某些學(xué)者也提出了另一種解釋?zhuān)涸诤谏ヌ脩?zhàn)團(tuán)于M34平定Catelexis叛亂的最后戰(zhàn)斗中，異形君主“惡靈之王”在被殺死后發(fā)出了一陣撕裂亞空間的啟示錄般靈能死亡嚎叫，這陣靈能沖擊是黑色圣堂智庫(kù)消失的原因。但無(wú)論真相如何，黑色圣堂都已經(jīng)開(kāi)始將他們智庫(kù)的缺失接受為帝皇神圣計(jì)劃的一部分。如果帝皇決定再次將智庫(kù)賜予黑色圣堂，他們就會(huì)擁抱這份恩賜，但在那之前，他們將會(huì)在身邊沒(méi)有這些強(qiáng)大戰(zhàn)士的情況下進(jìn)行戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)。

Outsiders mistakenly interpret the lack of Librarians within the ranks of the Black Templars Chapter, and the fury with which its battle-brothers slay Chaos Sorcerers, as an intolerance of all psykers. This is not the case; though the Black Templars do not traditionally number psykers amongst their ranks, they hold special reverence for Astropaths, seeing them as holy disciples who have actually communed with the Emperor. Navigators are similarly honoured, for their psychic blessing allows them to see the divine light of the Astronomican and guide the Black Templars through the warp to deliver righteous retribution against the Emperor's enemies.?

外人錯(cuò)誤地將黑色圣堂部隊(duì)中智庫(kù)的缺乏和戰(zhàn)團(tuán)中戰(zhàn)斗修士們屠戮混沌巫師的狂怒解讀為他們毫不容忍一切靈能者。但事實(shí)并非如此：雖然黑色圣堂在傳統(tǒng)上并不在他們的隊(duì)伍里部署靈能者，但他們對(duì)星語(yǔ)者有著特殊的尊敬，將之視為與帝皇有過(guò)交流的神圣門(mén)徒。導(dǎo)航者也受到類(lèi)似的尊崇，因?yàn)閷?dǎo)航者們的靈能賜福允許他們看到星炬的神圣光芒，并引導(dǎo)黑色圣堂戰(zhàn)團(tuán)穿過(guò)亞空間，對(duì)帝皇之?dāng)辰迪抡x的天譴。
