Hammer 40k: Far East Storm

Chapter 267 Eden, Eden

At this moment, a wailing banshee suddenly rushed in, "Sisters!" the banshee shouted as soon as she rushed in: "There is no more time for us to hesitate at this time, Lord Ryan has already given the order Order, we must retreat to the webway immediately. Everyone, please hurry up, even Lord Ryan can't resist for a long time."

Under the leadership of the banshee Isa, these Eldar people naturally withdrew towards the webway with tears of gratitude. After doing this two or three times, Li roughly counted and found that he had saved less than a hundred Eldar people. At fifty, with the help and cover of these people, it should be much easier to hide your identity and obtain intelligence.

Things became simpler after that. Li and Elizabeth covered the last batch of sick and wounded people and arrived at the gate of the Webway. Before entering, many Eldar warriors who volunteered to stay on guard took the initiative to install installations on the gate. After preparing the psychic explosive device, Li finally glanced at the world behind him with great nostalgia, and then stepped into the Gate of the Webway amid the urging of everyone.

The crystal-like space gate only caused a few ripples, and then returned to its original state. Soon after, a violent explosion began to sound, and the crystal-smooth entrance of the Webway Gate began to twist, and then the entire entrance of collapse, and a deafening explosion. When the Space Marines arrived, they could only see the remains of debris on the ground.

But the matter was not over yet. Soon, several ghost knights recovered a small metal box from the depths of the battlefield, while the remaining soldiers began to lay explosives on the battlefield. After they evacuated, a bigger explosion It happened. The explosion was not only violent, but also wide-ranging, completely turning the battlefield into scorched earth.

Then these warriors quickly swooped towards their next target. The Knights Templar were like knights on horses, flying at high speed, raising their shining sword high, And in the shadow under this light, who would know what happened?

"So, how long should we go?" Li Po asked the question in a depressed voice.

Li and Elizabeth were walking at the forefront of this troubled team. They were now walking in an alley. At both ends of the alley were towering ancient-style arrow tower buildings. These buildings were so They are so tall and towering into the clouds that you can't even see the full picture of these majestic buildings if you raise your head.

It looked like Li was walking with a group of defeated soldiers in the alleys of an unknown, huge alien civilization. But Li knew that the towering buildings and various wonderful scenery were actually just background colors. The world they were in now was actually just the alley they were walking on.

"I don't know," Elizabeth answered honestly: "Maybe three days, maybe three years, but how long do you think we have been gone?"

"I think? Well, it's really troublesome after losing most of the timing devices and personal terminals," Li sighed with dissatisfaction: "I can only rely on my feelings. Fortunately, my feelings are quite accurate. I just rely on my heart. Judging from the hunger level, I think we were gone for about eight meals.”

"Then I should have left for more than two days and less than three days."

"No, it should be exactly two days and forty-eight Earth hours."

"Um?"

"I eat four meals a day, don't you want to eat midnight snacks?" Seeing Elizabeth looking too lazy to pay attention to him, Li continued: "Speaking of it, Elizabeth, haven't you considered the possibility of this situation? ? You don’t even have a timing device with you?”

"I don't have a single artifact on me," Elizabeth replied: "And in a place like this, I'm afraid even bringing a timing device is useless. Time here is simply distorted."

The Webway is a special space. Although it is in the universe, it is not something that ordinary people can feel and come into contact with. The Webway is so magical, just like the veins of the universe, walking along the veins of the universe. , you can travel to the other side of the galaxy in an instant. It is said that the webway was originally a technology of the ancient saints. Later, those ancient saints taught this technology to the Eldar people. The Eldar people then built the webway so that they could quickly travel through the galaxy. It is precisely because of this that Became the overlord of the galaxy.

However, after the Cataclysm, the Eldar people also lost the ability to build the Webway. The existing Webway Gate is also an extremely precious legacy to the Eldar people.

"We won't go too far, right?" Li, who was walking alone in the front section, took every step steadily, which made the people of the Spirit tribe feel relieved just by seeing his back and steps behind Li. But Li himself was unavoidably worried. After all, he had never been to this place before, and he was asked to lead the way. Who knew where he would take these people. Fortunately, there are no forks in this alley yet, otherwise Li would probably be blinded.

"Overdone? No, even if the two of us don't know the road, those guys behind us should know the road too." Elizabeth comforted: "I have been observing these Eldar people along the way. If we are almost there, I’m sure they’ll let us know.”

What Elizabeth said was right. When they were almost on the third day, there was a small cheer among the Eldar team. After that, the defeated soldiers sped up their pace, and Elizabeth ran to the back to help the wounded and began to ask the Eldar people. She had already started to try to get information from them.

Getting information is a careful job. The initial work was somewhat thrilling. After all, although Elizabeth knew a lot about the Eldar people, it only came from two aspects. One was the vast library of the Tribunal. Elizabeth had read almost all the documents related to the Eldar people in the library, but this was nothing, because this job was a compulsory course for many judges who had to contact the Eldar people. If you don’t even know the enemy you are going to contact, how can you defeat them?

Of course, compared to others, Elizabeth has a better way, that is, Li Anjie's two teachers. Although they don't meet often, and even if they talk occasionally, they won't talk for a long time, but in these short and fragmented conversations, Elizabeth still collected enough and precious information.

First of all, she learned from the two Eldars, Rosina and Sylva, how a real Eldar should talk. This is very important. If you haven't seen the real side, it's hard for you to imitate. Of course, there are also many Eldars imprisoned in the dungeon of the Tribunal, but these Eldars who are imprisoned in cages and destined to be tragic can't show "normal life". They show more "struggle in despair". In short, in the communication between Rosina and Sylva, Elizabeth learned a lot of things, whether it is the tone of conversation, the auxiliary hand movements, the expression, or even the allusions that should be used at certain times, she knows everything. Even if there are some bumps in the early stage, once she gets on the right track, she quickly becomes friends with this group of injured warriors. Then all kinds of information were obtained from those seemingly ordinary conversations.

So Elizabeth figured out the destination of their trip and understood when they would arrive, but there was still a question in her mind, a question that even the warriors of the Eldar did not understand.

This question is why! Why do the Eldar do so much? Why is the end of their trip to the webway not the Eldar's Ark World, but Eden. Why is it Eden again, the name that has been heard countless times, the starting point of the war, a place that the Eldar can never let go.

So not long after continuing to move forward, Li once again faced a crystal-like door. This time, Li did not hesitate at all. He just glanced at Elizabeth, and after confirming that there was no mistake, he stepped in. The next moment, the blue sky appeared above Li's head again, and in the west, the sunset was setting, and in the east, two moons were slowly appearing from the sky.

Although he had never arrived here in person, Li also knew that this was Eden.

Soon, people appeared from the door behind Li one after another. After all the people arrived and counted, they made sure that no one was missing. Then the group of people moved forward along the road, because they said that there was a stronghold a short distance ahead. In the stronghold, there were not only various supplies, but also the medical supplies they needed most.

Fortunately, it was not far away. The wounded team arrived at the camp soon. Then those who were healing began to heal their wounds, and those who were resting began to rest. While everyone was busy, Li and Elizabeth retreated to the corner.

"We should withdraw," Li said, "We are lucky. There are no elves guarding the exit of this door. If a group of people really came to isolate us and then investigate us, wouldn't we all be exposed?"

"Impossible, this is a set of rules that the Tribunal is used to. The elves don't like this. It's not impossible for us to withdraw, but without the cover of such a large group of people, it is not conducive to collecting intelligence. Besides, I think something big will happen soon in Eden, so we should wait here now."
