Warhammer 40: Gods Of Mortals

Chapter 1097: Complex feelings towards the ancient saint
Qin Mo didn't know how to answer Orikan's words.

Orikan seemed to feel that if he were a human, he could wait for the day when the ascension plan would be realized in the future.

But Qin Mo himself has been studying it intermittently for such a long time, starting from the private conversation with the Emperor about ascension when the new Thunder Warrior was born, to now, but there is no result.

"When you were in your infancy, we followed the Forger's energy signal and went to Talon."

Orikan suddenly spoke again.

"At that time, because of some things, I needed to stay with Szalak and serve him for a while."

"We arrived on Tyron One to observe you. We destroyed a genestealer nest. Those Tyranid bug hybrids are so weak that a single death mark can enter and exit their most heavily defended place."

"Later, before the battle to defend Taillon, the overlord of the Cologne Dynasty used a time device to weaken Tairon's reality membrane. I called Trazin and asked him to help introduce you. Finally, I met you and went down to persuade the overlord of Cologne to do you a small favor."

"You must have been wondering why I showed up and took the initiative to help you. This is the reason. Because I hope to advance my research by observing you."

Orikan spoke frankly.

Many questions that once puzzled Qin Mo and had to give up thinking about them have also been answered.

For example, on the battlefield against the Gene Stealers hundreds of years ago, what was the source of the violent explosion that caused the Gene Stealers to suddenly withdraw their troops.

For example, on the eve of the Battle of Tyrone, why did Orikan appear with Trazin.

"Orican." Qin Mo squatted down, "Although you and Trazin went down to persuade the Cologne Overlord and were beheaded and sent back in a package, I am still very grateful to you. In return, I will give you and Trazin's heads. Packed separately.”

"Thank you." Orican was sincerely grateful when he heard that his head and Trazin's were installed separately at that time.

"You're welcome." Qin Mo pulled Orikan up from the ground, then turned around to leave, "I just hope you don't always make things happen on the timeline. I have other things to do, so see you later."

O'Rikan looked at Qin Mo's back, thought for a moment and then spoke.

"Long-term time manipulation is influenced by many factors."

"For example, how many people on the current timeline are going to the past, which will affect the stability of time retrieval."

"Don't drastically change the past, don't affect too many people, otherwise it will cause chaos in the web of fate on the curtain, which will directly weaken the stability of the entire reality curtain."

"If you want to do something in the past or the future, figure out what you want to do, do it immediately and quickly, and then come back, otherwise dire consequences will occur."

"Don't think that if your behavior was carried out secretly in the past, there would be no consequences. No, the variables will be great and there will be many, many impacts, even if it's just that you kicked a stone down someone's head when passing by. You have to be right Various impacts are anticipated and mitigated.”

"Be careful and don't be careless, otherwise the smallest consequence I can think of is that your people may disappear after you make a mistake."

Orikan, like a master of time manipulation, talks about the issues that need to be paid attention to in long-term time manipulation.

And it is.

This is the experience Qin Mo talks about.

Experience is different from knowledge. If a person knows a lot of knowledge but does not accumulate practical experience, he will always stumble when doing things.

And if a person does not seek a deep understanding but has experience, then he can do many things based on experience alone. "Is there anything else?" Qin Mo stopped and looked back at Orikan.

"There are many." O'Rikan walked towards Qin Mo, "You should be born with the basic theoretical knowledge about time, so I won't go into details. The key is various precautions and those other than theories. If you want to hear it, I can tell you the same thing for ten thousand years."

Qin Mo raised his eyebrows.

Orikan made a request naturally: "I think you should take me with you instead of wasting your time listening to my nagging. Besides, I guess you don't just want to return to the war in heaven to collect the souls of the Necrontyr branch. , there are all kinds of things you want to do.”

"I am here."

"Even if you want to travel during the War in Heaven, I can help you deal with the negative effects of various time and space manipulations."

Hearing this, Qin Mo thought for a while.

It would be a good thing if Orikan could follow.

But Qin Mo had doubts: "What do you want to achieve in this time manipulation?"

"What can I achieve? This is your business. The energy required to control long-term time is amazing. Only you and the other Star Gods can bring us to a certain critical time node." Orikan spread his hands. , "To put it bluntly, this is a show of goodwill."

Orikan paused for two seconds, and then said: "When you can make humans ascend, take me with you."

"You trust me so much?" Qin Mo was a little surprised. He felt Orican's trust. Just now, Orican actually believed that as long as he gave me a favor, he might be able to take him with him to ascend in the future.

Orikan let out two mechanical laughs, and then told the story that sounded off at first glance.

"In the art of governing in Necrontyr culture, sentimental kings are bad."

"Because such a king is bound by human fetters. He cannot be cold-blooded when he should be cold-blooded. He cannot be cold-blooded when he should, and he cannot abandon the people around him like rotten tools."

"But such a king also has an advantage, that is, he can easily gain the trust of others and has many loyal servants and close friends."

"That's probably the truth."

"Just think of it as a preparation for the exchange of interests..."

The astrologer stopped, the scepter in his hand lying on the ground.

"I'll give you a helping hand."

After listening to Orikan's words, Qin Mo thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"The fewer people who travel through time, the better." Orican immediately took on the responsibility of time consultant. "No one is qualified to protect your safety. You don't have to worry about your own safety. This is an advantage, so you don't have to be like I will still bring a guard, but the Star God should still bring one or two people he can trust.”

"It's best to bring another psyker to deal with psychic troubles."

After listening to the suggestion, Qin Mo already had a plan in mind and nodded: "We will prepare for a day and then set off."
