Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind.

Chapter 114 The Germination of War
Under the supervision and assistance of the Tribunal, the expedition fleet of the Order of Truth officially launched an armed scientific investigation of the huge pyramid complex.

The Mechanic Society's gravedigger fleet is still soaking in subspace and on its way here, and the main space necromancer fleet that left for unknown reasons will return without knowing when, and time waits for no one.They need as much information as possible as quickly as possible.

In order to complete this mission, the Order of Truth will do whatever it takes.

The satirical banshee as the advance scout was scattered in all directions, followed by a large number of intelligent control servitors and mortal survey troops carrying anti-matter bombs, and the furious banshee carrying high-pressure hot melt, ready to investigate the Pyramid for breakthrough work.

The preacher who stayed on the battleship activated the teleportation beacon on the cyberlux body that was converted into an engineering machine, so that the ground troops could teleport into the battleship at any time when they requested reinforcements.

Under the protection of Alphonse and an elite banshee troop, the director of scientific research and Bernardita went to the center of the building complex to investigate inside the super-large pyramid whose spire was destroyed.

In addition to investing a lot of troops, they also used a large number of high-end equipment that is still in the experimental stage.

While the armed scientific research in the flare galaxy was in full swing, Russell, who left Falla in a hurry because of other important matters, was also accompanied by Coronial, and they went through the L star gate and entered the Lost Dream star cluster.

The delicate and beautiful gray Gu mothership with a body like a silver arc plunged headlong into the nebula. Under the guidance of Koroniai, Gray Wind quickly jumped to the designated coordinates and docked above the body of the Fordola Ark World Ship.

What was displayed in front of Russell was a very contrasting scene.

Half of the body of this world-class battleship, which is larger than the main star of Nefer, can still see the white and beautiful spiritual bone structure, while the other half has been covered with thick chitinous carapace, growing thick and lengthy organisms There are still a large number of crushed ship wrecks in the tentacles and curved long horns, and the huge mouthparts covered with fangs and sharp teeth.

Half elegant, half ferocious, the assimilation process of the insect swarm to the world ship of Fodora is not unpleasant.

Commendable results, but Russell is not here to inspect the progress of Coroniai's work, but has real urgent things to deal with.

In the cabin of the Gray Gu Mothership, Gray Wind exhaled a slightly hazy, still slowly rotating holographic three-dimensional star map in front of Russell, and said: "The Lost Dream Nebula has become much thinner than before. , this is related to the spiral galaxies in the dust cloud... This is the real-time star map of the Lost Dream constellation."

Russell nodded and did not answer, looking down at the star map in front of him.

There are 3 bright spots in the slowly rotating spiral star group, namely: the galaxy "Hehe" where the L-star gate is located, the real-time coordinates of the world ship Fodora, and a star marked as "Tiber Long" star system.

"In order to convert Fodora into a hive world as quickly as possible, I released a large number of swarm tentacles in the Lost Dream Star Cluster to collect biomass everywhere."

Coronial put himself next to Russell as if claiming credit, and his soft voice was as soft as warm cream dotted on a cake: "But not long ago, one of the tentacles was reaching into this place called Tiberon. After galaxies, it broke..."

Russell and Gray Wind looked very serious, they knew what this meant.

Each tentacles of the swarm separated by Coroniai can easily devour the indigenous civilizations in the post-atomic or space age; they also have the space naval warfare capabilities to capture the stowaway ships of the human empire.

Its tentacles broke off in Tiburon, which means that there are quite impressive space combat forces in this galaxy, at least, it has passed the early days of the spaceflight era, and can set up orbital habitation stations and planets on the orbits of various celestial bodies in the system Defense fortresses, and even star-based civilizations.

"The singularity at the center of the vortex is still spewing out new galaxies, with no sign of slowing down." Gray Wind said, and exhaled another holographic star map, but it was static.

It overlapped the static star map with the dynamic star map in front of Russell. A slender white finger moved forward slightly, and Russell looked at the coordinates that Gray Wind was pointing at. It was a galaxy highlighted in green.

The galaxy where the L-star gate is located: Xihe.

After the old and new star maps overlapped, the two green highlighted spots did not overlap.The Hehehe galaxy on the old star map is closer to the inner part of the spiral arm, but on the current real-time star map, the Hehehe galaxy is further outside.

"Only during the time we left, the Lost Dream galaxy rapidly expanded to the point where it could almost completely fill the space where the nebula is located, and the Hehe galaxy also moved to the outer area of ​​the nebula."

Gray Wind said with some concern: "The Lost Dream star group is still expanding to the space beyond the nebula, and this expansion has a faster and faster trend..."

Coroniai also looked at Russell, although the space age civilization in the Tiburon galaxy was quickly eaten up by other swarms from nearby galaxies after breaking off a worm nest tentacles.However, this is far from the end.

The closer to the indigenous planet inside the whirlpool, the higher the level of civilization. The end of the spiral arm is just the stone age where the hair and blood drink, and some of it is a farming society where the sun rises and the sun sinks.Now it has reached the point where it can break the tentacles of the insect nest.

Are there more powerful civilizations in the miniature universe in the singularity?

Is there any civilization that has inherited the mantle of the god-level civilization "Battling Party C" that can create a new universe?

Coronial didn't know the answer.

The only thing it can be sure of is that as more and more galaxies are pulled out of the singularity, the mass difference between the miniature universe and this universe will become larger and larger.More and more advanced civilization planets will come to this universe, and they will be able to touch them soon.

They are likely to face an interstellar war...

"Master, do you want to stop the biological assimilation process of the Fordola world ship and use all the biomass to produce the swarm battle ship? Or...?" Coronial asked softly: "As long as it is your will, I will do it to the letter.”

Russell shook his head.

He is not afraid to go to war with a powerful civilization from the stars. Even without the help of the empire, he is confident that he can win this war with Coroniai's hive fleet alone.But the point of the matter was never about winning or losing, or even about the war itself.

Rather: that civilization came from the stars.

"The descendants of the warring party B have been hiding in the miniature galaxy for too long, and there has been a large area of ​​social degradation." Russell said as he wanted to pat Coronial's head, but found that she was standing taller than him, so I had no choice but to rub its ears, and then said: "Some of their branches may still have powerful science and technology inherited from their ancestors, but they don't understand the existence of chaos in this universe-this in itself is the most terrifying thing .”

It is not that among the stars there are advanced psionic theories and technologies related to shielding the virtual world, but those all require people to take the initiative to study and use them.

Will the embers of civilization, which have been huddled in the miniature galaxy for thousands of years, be vigilant against the threat of chaos at all times like Russell, and will be trembling even when expanding the organization and recruiting individuals?No, they have no way of knowing the existence of Chaos.

I don't know how many people will wear body armor 24 hours a day when there are guns pointed at them all the time.

"If those idyllic primitive tribes and indigenous civilizations that have not yet flown out of their parent planets are not enough to attract the attention of the gods, then when the interstellar civilizations that are hidden deeper in the miniature galaxy are also siphoned to this place The universe..." Russell stroked Coronial's ear, and said, "To Chaos, they are a group of defenseless children."

"I can't predict what kind of waves a sudden interstellar war will cause in the galaxy, and how many forces will be stirred up by this war."

"I don't care, which direction this war will eventually develop."

"What I really care about most is whether the various black technologies in the hands of the warring party C, which has almost climbed the star technology tree to the extreme level, will be obtained by other forces in the chaos."

Russell sighed softly, let go of the pointy ears that had been rubbed red by himself, and shrank the holographic three-dimensional star map in front of him with both hands, allowing enough space for other star fields around the Lost Dream Nebula to be displayed.

Looking at the star-studded corner of the Milky Way, Russell slowly said: "Without knowing the specific situation in the miniature galaxy, we can't formulate a quick battle plan to cut through the mess."

"In an interstellar-scale war, our strength is still insufficient, and we cannot take into account the battlefield across the star sector and do everything comprehensively."

Mistakes are bound to exist.

And Russell knew that there was no room for any mistakes in this matter.

If a Necromancer overlord who strikes gongs and nine out of ten places sneaks into the battlefield quietly, and obtains the "synthetic personality matrix" that can truly give the mechanical body a soul...

If an Eldar prophet who wanted to summon the god of death came here quietly according to the prophecy, and obtained technologies such as sentinel array, psionic theory, or leap engine...

in case……

If this is too terrifying and too uncontrollable, he will definitely not be able to accept it.

——Then, let’s kill all ifs from the source.

Sensing the change in Russell's micro-expression, Gray Wind didn't say much. The rear part of the small cabin they were in was quickly reorganized. The soft sofa and coffee table prepared for Russell, the bookshelf full of various books of the Eldar and other daily necessities were replaced. Swallowed into the wall, freeing up a spacious space.

A ring-shaped instrument with a diameter of about 3.14 meters was lifted up to the floor, and together with it was presented to Russell a fully transparent cube the size of an adult's fist.

The weapon of time, the theory of the ring.And a secondary core of the anti-entropy that holds the authority to activate the theory of the circle.

"Master?" Koroniai held his flushed cheeks from being pinched by Russell with both hands, and asked suspiciously: "Could it be that you want to rewind the entire Lost Dream just like the original plan of the Fordola Spirit Clan The time of the constellations, let the broken miniature galaxy return to its complete state?"

"I don't want to do that, but I can't find a safer way for the time being," Russell said.

He really couldn't imagine the consequences of an unfettered flow of technology trees that can build urban planets and create miniature galaxies into this universe. Therefore, no matter how cautious the treatment of the Lost Dream Star Group is, it cannot be overstated .

And the only problem is:

"Can the theory of the ring really be able to reverse time on the scale of the meteor area to such an extent?" Russell asked.

"You may have some misunderstandings about this weapon, Mr. and Madam." The anti-entropy voice was still calm, without any emotion: "The space carrier with the same specifications as the Dawn of the World I served, even in the Federation era There are only two other ships, and I am the only one equipped with a time-reversing weapon of the level of the Ring Principle."

"If you were to ask me whether I have the ability to turn back the time of a standard cube with a side length of 200 light-years back to less than 100 Terra years ago, I would have one and only one answer."

After the words were finished, Gray Wind, Russell, and the blushing Koroniai all stared at the small transparent cube under the principle of the ring, waiting for its answer.

"Absolutely." Anti-Entropy replied.

"It's easy." The starlight in its secondary core flickered slightly, as if emphasizing it.

Russell was slightly taken aback by this familiar answer, then nodded in approval: "I understand."

The loyalty to the star bomber has long been written into the bottom layer of the anti-entropy original code, and it is impossible for it to lie to what Russell asked.Anti-entropy said it is absolutely possible, that is, it is absolutely possible in the literal meaning.

"Koroniai, recover the swarm." Russell said lightly.

"Yes, my master~" Coronial's tone was joyful and light, and he sounded in a very good mood.

The tentacles of the insect swarm spreading in the starry sky quickly retracted due to the will of the life-shaping queen, and the adult battleships, transport insects, and small biological motherships all returned one after another, entering the half-assimilated Fordola world ship .

Under the control of Coroniai, the huge hive world began to follow behind the gray Gu mothership, sailing towards the singularity in the center of the vortex. Along the way, swarms of insects continued to fly back to the hive from all directions. Even Russell couldn't help but sigh, Coronial is really a very high-quality fertility machine.

On the way to the center of the vortex, the artificial protozoan is also using the returned swarm as raw materials to accelerate the process of assimilating the organisms of the world ship Fodora.

Limited by their huge size, the lumbering craftworld ships of the Eldar can usually only travel at sublight speeds, so they rarely leave the webway.

When the biological assimilation of the swarm progressed to a sufficient extent, Coroniai could directly use the hive biological engine to allow the world ship to travel at a warp speed or even make a spiritual leap.

When Koroniai was working hard with full expectation, and was looking forward to how to claim credit from the master after the completion of the Hive World, Russell was in a complicated mood, thinking about one thing.

Anti-entropy's affirmative answer made him let go of a big rock in his heart, but another hidden worry haunted him because of it.

"Before, I just went back in time on the small object of Wotaum's reality penetrator, which made me feel a strong sense of crisis and a feeling of imminent disaster, but now I want to use the principle of the circle to directly flow back a star cluster time."

Russell couldn't help feeling uneasy.
