Warhammer: The Beginning is the Crisis of Annihilation Chapter 254

  Chapter 254 Unhealthy tendencies (for subscription)

  The voice of the mechanical sage is emitted by three skulls that are silver-plated and suspended in the air.

  Those skulls were connected by exposed nerve cables, speaking in place of his will.

  Qiu Chen didn't like the sound of Sage Stern very much.

   Sounds very mechanical, without emotion.

  It's like a computer making a sound.

  But he didn't show any abnormalities.

   Sage Stern has a respected status, and any contempt may bring disaster to himself.

  The other party came all the way from that mysterious empire.

   is the great man who serves the great man.

  Compared with a traveler like him, it can be said that they are people from two completely different worlds.

  For ordinary people, the empire is undoubtedly an unimaginable behemoth. It has a complex and complete military, scientific research, economy, education, religion, governs a vast territory, and has an countless population.

   To have such a high status in such a huge organization, Qiu Chen thought he couldn't do it.

  Ordinary people like him may not have the opportunity to meet the people behind all this in their entire lives.

   That is, the ruler who rules this huge empire.

  People like Sage Stern can talk with each other, plan the future of the entire empire, and decide the fate of one world after another.

  In the hall are the most powerful men and women in the base city. They each have their own responsibilities, expelling demons, maintaining faith, spreading hope, and establishing a new order.

  Hearing what Stern said, they all discussed in low voices.

"Please give a more detailed report." Judge Gray said: "How should we use those coordinates? What are the differences between different universes?? What are the uses of these strangers? Do you rely on them to lead the way? Or what?"

  Sage Stern nodded, a mechanical tentacle buzzed and slid in the air, and the light spots suspended in front of everyone moved accordingly, and merged into videos.

   “It's something we've extracted from these people's subconscious minds, memories of their worlds.”

   Qiuchen looked at the scene displayed by the projection.

  A guy in a leotard darts quickly between tall buildings.

  His perspective is like a room in one of those tall buildings.

  The perspective moves as the guy in the tights moves at high speed.

  The other party rushed to the ground with quick means and jumped onto the car of the masked gangster with a weapon in his hand.

  "Mr. Bad Guy, hi, my name is Spider-Man, you can also call me the man with the net bag or Mr. Surprise. What you are doing is not very good. I suggest you put down your weapon immediately and surrender to the police." The man said.

   Afterwards, those masked gangsters were subdued by virtue of their flexible fighting skills.

  Afterwards, a white spider web spewed out from his hand, and left again swinging high in the air.

  In addition to this video, there are other videos displayed in the projection.

  A huge bat mark is projected high above a city, which is particularly conspicuous.

  Qiu Chen watched the videos one by one.

   Correspond these videos with different traversers in your mind.

   There is no doubt that the first video must be John's.

  The guy in tights, who can swing around in the air and subdue bad guys, should be his New York neighbor, Spider-Man.

   This guy often complains about why he time-traveled and not Spider-Man.

  He just wanted to be an ordinary person, why is it so difficult.

  Things like time travel should be done by superheroes.

   The second video, the one with the bat mark above the city, is supposed to be Sam's.

  Sam talked about his time before time travel.

  Living in a city that sucks, unemployment is soaring, gangsters are rampant, it's a city that can't be saved.

   There's also a **** who's up and down there calling himself Batman, being a superhero, and fighting crime.

   It made him unable to earn extra money, and he was so poor that he almost went to eat dirt.

"That damned Batman, if you are so capable, why don't you kill those bosses and give me some money so that I can live. Just **** know that catching street gangsters is a natural offense to him. Don't let me go back, let When I go back, I will pick off his hands and feet, let him beg on the street, and then tell him earnestly, let him be a good person."

  Sam grits his teeth every time he says this.

   Obviously, in his mind, superheroes and the like are a piece of shit.

  I couldn't even eat, and told me to be a good person.

   Such a saint, why don't you go to church and replace Jesus, and hang it up yourself.

  Qiu Chen watched a few more videos, and each found the corresponding person.

  There are many travelers in the foggy world.

   In addition, everyone has no habit of keeping secrets about their traversal identities.

  While drinking, they even wished to reveal all the messy things about their previous lives, using words to whip those who had offended them again.

  For example, a soldier who was shot in the knee during a war and had to retire would always brag about his achievements in defeating those Skavens, saying that he had entered seven times and exited seven times, killing those rats and defeating them.

There is also a cynical keyboard man who always said that when he was drinking, he would use his own force to kill all those damned Kamen Riders when he went back. It was those idiots who killed him miserably. of.

  Qiu Chen suppressed his cranky thoughts, focused his attention on the meeting, and watched Sage Stern use his mechanical tentacles to slide those videos.

"From their memories, it can be seen that the world these people live in has complete laws of time and space. Of course, the time and space they live in, the subspace is relatively calm, and there are not so many weird things. And the world we built The road is located in the depths of the subspace, for this reason, the curtain of reality and the supreme sky must be broken to open a passable road."

"Through these years of research, we've discovered something about the will of the world, that a planet so long lived and believed in certain things would give birth to the general concept of a Guardian, such as Fenris' Frost Giants. The soul of the wolf, the fire dragon of Nocturne Star, etc., these are the general concepts of the guardian. Both the salamander warrior and the wild wolf warrior can draw strength from their beliefs, and even make the concepts of the frost wolf and fire dragon form entities."

"If a planet is like this, we have reason to suspect that it will be like this in a universe. The desire to survive in the subconscious of many beings will cause the subspace to give birth to a subspace entity similar to a guardian. This guardian will expel those who may harm to the presence of native organisms. Those of us outsiders who may pose dangers may be turned away directly."

   "Can it be solved??" the imperial guard Valyrian asked.

"It depends on the situation. The concept of the guardian of some worlds is very fragile. The emotions of creatures do not accurately point to its existence, so there is no way to make it stronger. It seems that many worlds have similar world consciousness, but people Not believing in them, and therefore vulnerable. Having some worlds that explicitly see them as gods and arbiters strengthens that concept, giving them abilities beyond imagination."

"We don't need to pay attention to those guardians at all. First, the guardians are the existence of the subspace. Only the life in the local universe still has the desire to survive, and it will not be completely wiped out. Second: At this stage, we have not sent The capability of this kind of force, and the exploration team that set off this time is only to collect information."

   "When the empire has the ability to project troops to a universe on a large scale, those guardian concepts will be powerless to stop them, and they will not pose a threat at all."

  Qiu Chen was speechless secretly, isn't this guardian just another way of saying heaven!

  This empire is too cruel.

  I still want to break the way of heaven and force it directly!

   "Why didn't we encounter any obstacles when we entered this foggy world!" asked Sister Alea on the side.

  Sage Stern just wanted to explain, but he thought of something and stopped.

  It is indeed a bit reluctant for the people here to explain this matter in professional terms.

   He should probably have kept it simple.

"A kingdom that has been declared destroyed, will there still be loyal guards?? This universe is broken, like a kingdom that is about to be destroyed. The ministers have fled, the king has disappeared, and those generals are either dead or surrendered. Do you think there will be any defense against foreign enemies?"

"And those universes where the laws of physical space-time are not distorted are countries where the kings are still in power and the generals are still in control of the army. In addition to providing us with coordinates, these strangers can also reduce the trouble of entering those universes for us." , It's like when you smuggle into another country, having a local to help can always get twice the result with half the effort.”

  The popular explanation made everyone look suddenly enlightened.

   Also gained a clear understanding of the so-called guardian concept.

  The subspace can materialize the emotions and beliefs of all creatures.

  This point has long been proved in many cases.

  The universe where the empire is located, because of the war, the warp caused chaos in the subspace, and horrible creatures that only nightmares were born.

   It even caused the subspace to swallow the real universe in turn.

  The same goes for other universes.

  Under the catalysis of biological emotions and beliefs, there will also be various powerful subspace entities.

  The guardian is a general concept.

  In the subconscious mind of all creatures, survival is the most important.

  The echoes of the warp caused by the subconscious will also form powerful entities.

   Form something like the will of the planet, the will of the universe.

   Some entities are believed and worshiped by creatures, and they will gain powerful power like the four gods.

   Some entities are not noticed, and their power is weak.

  Sage Stern stared at everyone, and seeing everyone's understanding expressions, he nodded and showed a satisfied smile.

  For the ignorance of this field, there is actually no way to blame everyone present, nor can we say that they are ignorant.

  The division of labor in the empire is so clear that it is difficult for people in one field to understand another field.

  It is also a very torturous thing for Sage Stern to understand the meaning of a tactical gesture in different environments.

  In addition to the research in the field of subspace, it was only after the recovery from the imperial regency that it officially started.

  Even within the Mechanicum, there are not many priests and sages who understand this field.

   "Yes, is there still a problem with the topic of re-opening the exploration of different universes?" Sage Stern asked Ou again just in case.

  Agerman looked around and saw that no one asked questions, so he said: "Then let's move on to the next topic. This time, there are a total of eight teams, and we have to discuss the composition and distribution of personnel.

  The penetration of the tunnel allowed the base city to receive assistance from the empire.

   There is a large number of backup personnel.

  For this reason, it is more than enough to prepare eight exploration teams.

  Considering that there may be some individuals with special abilities in some worlds, which will have a certain impact on the exploration work of the empire, for this reason, strong force is also needed to ensure the progress of the exploration mission.

  The size of each exploration team is about 300 people. In addition to conventional force, there are also nuns of silence and state church personnel who specialize in fighting against demons.

  Qiuchen was assigned to one of the teams, and his task was to assist the Imperial Exploration Team to enter the universe where he originally lived.

   "It feels like the fifty-cent party leading the way." Qiu Chen secretly cursed in his heart.

  If he had a mobile phone, he would have asked a forum immediately. In such a situation, it is not considered a cosmic traitor.

After the team members were assigned, for safety reasons, Qiu Chen and other traversers stayed on the side of the tower. They needed to learn some knowledge about the depths of the subspace and make necessary modifications to avoid being unable to bear the subspace trip, which would lead to Action failed.

  The heart of the empire - the solar system.

  The prosperity of this place is far more than a thousand times that of the past.

   Countless Imperial ships came and went, filling every route.

  These ships set sail from all over the galaxy, sending massive supplies and those selected talents to Terra, and then sending those Terra supplies or scientific research teams to various places.

  Under the will of the Regent of the Empire, human geniuses have been excavated by various means, and the allocation of resources has been optimized to the extreme.

  Talents and resources are sent to various huge scientific research projects, let them become screws, and promote the development of those projects.

   Then, these projects in turn promote the development of the empire, allowing the empire to have funds and technology to dig and cultivate more talents.

  After forming a virtuous circle.

  The strength of the empire also grew rapidly like a snowball.

   Today's empire is like an electric car that can accelerate automatically, rushing on the road of technological research and development and military expansion.

  Tara's current development is even more jaw-dropping.

   Magnificent cities are everywhere, tall man-made buildings and green plants form a harmonious scene.

  There are a large number of green parks and botanical gardens simulating various ecological environments on every floor of the city.

  When those pilgrims came to Terra from all over the galaxy.

  They will all sincerely think that heaven is nothing more than this.

  Terra has many majestic buildings, each with its own historical significance.

  For example, the government tower, the legal tower, the trial courtyard, etc.

   But there is absolutely nothing more commemorative than Heroes Square.

  If a tourist goes near the Heroes Square, he will definitely see those magnificent statues of the Primarch, Roger Dorn, Sanguinius, Russ and so on.

  The most amazing thing is the sculpture of the imperial regent-Guilliman juxtaposed with the emperor.

  The two sculptures are hundreds of meters high and majestic.

   This is not the most awe-inspiring place in Heroes' Square.

   At the feet of the Emperor and the Regent of the Empire, there stands a prison in which those Primarchs who have once betrayed are imprisoned.

  The guards with weapons guard the prison. They patrol the Heroes Square and are ready for battle at any time.

   In addition, there are also Gray Knights, Inquisitors, and Imperial Fists to form a patrol team.

  The defense is very strict, and there is no possibility of breakthrough.

   And the entire Heroes Square does not allow anyone to approach.

  Those Primarchs were imprisoned by special force fields, which cut off their source of power, blocked the subspace, restricted their cell activity, and suppressed their souls.

  Thousands of security measures have fundamentally solved the possibility of these guys escaping from prison.

   Unless there is a force that can capture the Imperial Palace, there is no way for these traitor primarchs to escape.

   In order to play an educational role, the empire allows people to pay to watch the prison life of several imprisoned Primarchs on the observation deck three kilometers away from the prison.

  The project has been very popular, generating a lot of income for the empire.

   The renegade Primarchs could only roar in anger, protesting against this behavior that hurt their dignity.

  Fulgrim screamed that he would have to slaughter all of Terra to wash away his humiliation, and for this reason became the most popular tourist attraction.

   After all, there are few things more interesting in this universe than a Primarch roaring impotently.

  It is a pity that the empire has always been a traitor without human rights.

   The Traitor Primarch cannot change anything but howl.

   They are still being visited like monkeys.

   was placed on the Heroes Square together with the sculptures of brothers who were sung and praised.

  The whole thing was done by Dawn, and even the observation deck was a project he specially entrusted to set up.

   It can be said that the murderous heart is vividly interpreted.

   Next to Heroes Square is the Royal Palace.

  After Guilliman took charge of Terra and abolished the High Lords Council, many rooms in the palace were also re-used.

  The work of many functional departments was transferred to the palace to facilitate the cooperation among various departments.

  After all, they are no longer serving the high lords who are fighting each other, but the already dictatorial Guilliman.

  In such a situation, it is no longer necessary to separate the various departments.

  In the past, the high lords would definitely not allow the departments they controlled to be with other departments, for fear of being seized by the other party.

   But now, the supreme ruler is Guilliman.

  There is no meaning of seizing power among the various departments.

   For this reason, working together is the most efficient way.

  Imperial Prime Minister Penny has been working in the palace all these years.

  The news that the alien universe tunnel was opened was conveyed to several important figures in encrypted form.

   One of them was placed on her table.

  Penny flipped through it, and after extracting some elements, she put it aside.

  Compared to the matter of the different universe channel, she is currently having some troubles.

  The imperial regency pays attention to science and technology, maintaining the status of scholars and scientific research staff is very high in the empire.

   This also created some problems.

  Some people form cliques in it, not thinking about how to conduct scientific research, but how to enhance their voice and grab the power to distribute the cake.

   In front of her were several videos submitted by the secretly organized men in black organization.

"Young people today don't know how to be grateful at all. How can they put their own name first when submitting scientific research results? They should write the names of their mentors and us old-timers. If you don't wait for decades, you will think about it. It's too impatient to stand out. Beat it back, and you can't encourage this kind of unruly and malicious signature."

   "As long as you follow me, I will guarantee that you will get a degree certificate. I will let you go to the Imperial Research Institute for an idle job, and I will put the results of a few projects on you, gilding it, and ensuring that you will be promoted all the way."

   "Now the empire is supporting geniuses, putting scientific research achievements on your children, and ensuring that they will flourish in the future."

   "If you don't want to make a fake, just criticize this kind of thing, don't go online."

   "We are all brothers in the same school, we must support each other in the future, and don't help outsiders. Scientific research is not about fighting and killing, it is about people's sophistication."

  Penny watched these videos, and the blood on her forehead was pulsating.

  If the imperial regent knows these things, I'm afraid it will be another bloodbath.
