Infinite Metaverse
Chapter 672: Tortoise Shell Divination and Signs of Great Misfortune
Phaeton Forge World.
The Knights of the Storm Chapter remained here to complete the replacement of armor and weapons of all Space Marines, as well as the upgrade, modification and maintenance of the Chapter's five warships. The Iron Buddha Chapter left only one recruit company and one cruiser to guard the sector, while the rest of the companies rushed out on battleships carrying full arms and ammunition.
Target: Yashan Star Area.
Mandeville Point outside the Phaeton Galaxy.
The battleships disappeared into the real universe one after another.
…
Somewhere in the subspace.
The mighty giant ship sailed forward steadily.
Su Zheng, captain's room.
A private meeting is taking place.
"It's been about two and a half weeks since the big plot event began. Aren't you in a hurry, Khan?"
Tristan took a sip of tea and asked.
"There's no rush. If I'm not wrong, this major plot event will not end in a short period of time. Now that we already know the final answer, it is meaningless for us to intervene now. It will only lead to a wasteful loss of troops and increase the difficulty. We just copy the homework step by step and follow the correct answers.”
Fu Qinghai rubbed his wine glass and said confidently.
As the chief priest said, the major plot event has been underway for two and a half weeks, but Qingshan Khan has no intention of getting involved at this moment. The Chapter fleet is still making continuous jumps towards the Yashan star area in the extreme star field, which can be said to be completely opposite to the direction in which the war may break out.
Fu Qinghai poured the wine and said:
"Although I once told my White Scar comrades that I might not be able to return until a hundred or even a thousand years later. Although we all swore an oath on the grassland of Chogris and swore to guard our connection to each other forever...but , No matter how firm a promise is, there will be a day when it is forgotten, and no matter how strong an oath is, there will be a day when it becomes loose."
Fu Qinghai swung the wine in his glass.
My eyes are fixed on the wine but my heart is drifting into the distance.
"We must participate in this Khuliltai Conference, otherwise all my original plans will be meaningless. This is a longer-term plan. In a sense, it is even more important and much more important than the major plot line events. "
Everyone here was thoughtful after hearing this.
"and."
Fu Qinghai put down his wine glass and turned around and said:
"This is not inconsistent with participating in major events in the plot line. We must first confirm my leadership status at the Khuliltai Conference, and then we can call on all the sub-regiments of the Fifth Army to obey my orders. This is a very large-scale event Our military strength alone is absolutely not enough for this war.”
"What are you going to do?"
Lin Yu raised his head and asked.
This is a very direct question. The Iron Buddha Chapter was the main initiator of the original agreement and that gathering, but after all, more than a thousand years have passed, and it is not known how many of the Khans who participated in the oath are still alive. The Iron Buddha Chapter is not the parent group, the parent group is the White Scars.
Of course everyone will reunite according to their vows.
But...why should I listen to you?
"Be kind and powerful at the same time."
Fu Qinghai was already prepared for this problem.
"On the one hand, we want them to understand that if they follow us, they will have meat to eat. On the other hand, we also want them to realize that the Iron Buddha Chapter is the strongest among all the White Scars. In the past, It is now, and it will be in the future...even the parent group White Scars cannot compare to us.
Fu Qinghai narrowed his eyes and said calmly:
"In this way, we can unite the entire legion."
"Then our plan is: first attend the Khuliltai Conference, show kindness and power to others, then reorganize the fifth legion, and finally go kill the orcs, right?"
Lin Yu concluded with excitement.
"wrong."
Fu Qinghai shook his head and said:
"We still have to wait for an opportunity."
"What time?"
Lin Yu asked puzzledly.
"how to say……"
Fu Qinghai smacked his lips and said:
"The most perfect situation in my imagination...or in my expectations, is not to intervene in the war immediately after we are ready and defeat the enemy, but to intervene at the right time, when the enemy is close to overturning Terra."
Facing Lin Yu's puzzled gaze.
Fu Qinghai gestured with his hands and explained:
"The Human Empire is like a patient or a cancer patient at some point. Cancerous cells and normal cells are mixed together, and the immune system cannot distinguish them. If he is poisoned at this time, the toxin will kill the normal cells and also Kill cancerous cells. But unless it is a terminally ill person, the number of normal cells will always exceed the number of cancerous cells, right? And we can remove the toxin at the moment when the cancer cells are almost killed."
Fu Qinghai spread his hands and said:
"It's called chemotherapy."
Lin Yu fell into deep thought after hearing this.
Fu Qinghai picked up the wine glass and took a sip:
"We have to see both sides of things. A crisis is a disaster, but it is also accompanied by new life. Arsenic can also be used as medicine, and war may not bring good results."
"You want to give the Empire a round of chemotherapy?"
Tristan understood what the Chapter Master meant.
"But, Khan, you must be aware of the side effects of chemotherapy. This plan will inevitably cause a large number of normal cells to die... How innocent are they?"
The chief pastor reminded meaningfully.
Fu Qinghai fell into a brief silence after hearing this.
Then he raised his glass, took a sip, sighed and said:
"This is an inevitable price. Although we think of ourselves as the 'immune system', if we destroy those cancerous cells with our own hands, they will be regarded as 'toxins' by the body. After all, it has been so long since the last time this body Immune system disorders have only been around for over a thousand years.”
Tristan also fell silent upon hearing this.
As a paladin among the Word Bearers, Tristan believed from the bottom of his heart in the righteous forces represented by the Holy Light, so he had deep concerns and worries about Fu Qinghai's "chemotherapy plan." Is it worth worrying about paying such a high price and losing so many lives? Why were they sacrificed?
But he couldn't think of anything to say in reply.
"I have a question."
Lin Yu thought for a long time.
Suddenly he raised his hand and said:
"According to your idea, boss, we have to enter the battlefield at the most appropriate time. However, we are tens of thousands of light years away from there, and we have no spies among the orcs. How do we know how far the war is progressing? How do we Will it be self-defeating to enter the battlefield when you are so close to overthrowing Terra?"
Lin Yu's words are not unreasonable. Not to mention that the Iron Buddha Chapter's intelligence sphere of influence only spreads to the neighboring Calixis sector at most. After this thousand years have passed, the intelligence network of the Calixis sector also needs to be reorganized. Besides, no matter how awesome No. 56 is, there is no way he can plant spies within the orcs.
"you're right."
Fu Qinghai nodded in approval:
"So, I found someone before I came here."
Fu Qinghai pointed to the corner of the captain's cabin.
All the Space Marines turned their heads and looked in unison.
A blind girl sat there all alone.
"Well……"
Blindsight stood up helplessly.
"Come, Prophet, show your worth."
Fu Qinghai waved and said:
"Tell me where the war is now?"
…
In full view of a room full of Space Marines, Blindsight took a deep breath, adjusted the hem of his robe, and then walked towards the wine table where the ceramite giants were gathering.
"What do you wish to divine, my lord?"
The blind girl cleared her throat and asked.
Fu Qinghai glanced at Blind Eye appreciatively.
This woman is very sensible this time.
She had made it clear that she wanted to join Fu Qinghai's reincarnation society, and Fu Qinghai gave her a chance to return to the Warhammer 40K universe in her next reincarnation. This woman is very good at seizing opportunities and can quickly position herself.
When Fu Qinghai's order was issued, the woman no longer bargained as she had done before, asking Fu Qinghai and Saroyan to clarify the interests to her before activating her prophecy ability. Instead, she directly asked her boss what she wanted.
This is the attitude job seekers should have.
"I have Emperor Tarot, Rune Tortoise Shell, and Dried Offal... Which one do you prefer?"
Blindsight took out a bunch of strange little objects from his robe and placed them on the table.
"Of course, if you have higher requirements for the accuracy and directionality of the divination results..." Blindsight mentally took out another small snuff bottle-like bottle, which contained green microcrystalline powder, " I also have hallucinogens like necromancy, but I can’t use them too frequently.”
"No...Khan."
Qiao Shida couldn't help but interrupt:
"Do you really want to rely on this method to obtain battlefield intelligence and strategic information? Witchcraft? Prophecy?"
The expression on the Moon Wolf warrior's face was almost distorted. It's not that he rejects magic, but Qiao Shida sincerely believes that this method is very unreliable. The information obtained is ambiguous and has to rely on various analysis and interpretation. But war is serious and cannot accept such ambiguity.
So when Joestar knew that he was going to pick up a fortune teller, he didn't give Blindsight a good look. He felt that this beautiful woman must have bewitched the chapter leader - after all, it was not the first time that Qingshan Khan was bewitched by a woman, which made Khan start to believe in divination.
"What's the difference between this and Qianzi's group of traitors?"
Joestar waved his hands and said excitedly.
"Ahem..."
Danzul couldn't help but cough twice when he heard this:
"Well, although, there is one thing to say. During the Great Crusade, the Thousand Sons Legion relied on prophecy spells to obtain battlefield intelligence. The success rate and accuracy rate were quite high."
"You have to get used to it, Joe."
Fu Qinghai patted Qiao Shida's shoulder and said.
After all, Joe Star was a warrior in the 30K era. At that time, except for the Thousand Sons Legion, few people obtained battlefield information through prophecy. But in the 40K era, it has become a very common method to assist war through divination and prophecies. Any Astartes Chapter with a think tank will do divination, and the Imperial Guard and the Imperial Navy will occasionally use divination prophecies.
This is a trend that won’t go out of style.
"But I don't need a prophecy."
However, Fu Qinghai changed the subject and said:
"I don't need you to predict the future. I want the latest news from afar. I know that news earlier than the astrological message. Do you understand?"
"In a sense, this is also a prophecy."
Blindsight nodded to express understanding:
"You know the news coming from afar earlier than it actually is. You know in advance the information that has happened but has not yet been transmitted here. This is also a divination of the future."
Fu Qinghai did not argue with her about the definition.
"Imperial Fists."
Fu Qinghai gently spit out a keyword.
"OK."
The blind woman nodded.
Blindsight knew that Fu Qinghai didn't like the too ambiguous prophecy method of Emperor Tarot, so she directly chose tortoise shell divination. She lit a delicate and small copper stove and began to burn several pieces of tortoise shell back and forth over the flame. As a small "click" sound was heard, the warm and jade-like carapace gradually cracked open dense gaps in the flames.
Blindsight's breathing quickened slightly.
Danzul narrowed his eyes slightly.
He smelled the breath of ether, a cold and spicy strange smell or touch from the subspace - this was not an ordinary ritual. Whether this woman was doing divination or not, at least she was really launching one. Psychic rituals, she is communicating with the non-physical through these carapace.
After a moment, Blindsight stopped burning.
She pinched the cracked tortoise shells. She couldn't see them, but her white and delicate fingers gently scratched the hot nails. She stroked her fingertips back and forth along the cracks, just like touching herself when playing mahjong, feeling these complex And the disordered yellow-brown lines... Then he opened his lips lightly and began to spell out the words:
"A...Ada...Adamantua."
"Kill, I kill, beast."
"Ominous, a sign of great misfortune."
It is indeed "Beast War"!
It was only at this moment that Fu Qinghai was finally sure.
The major plot event was exactly as he expected.
"star map!"
Fu Qinghai turned to look at the female secretary Qing Ming.
Qing Ming, who had been standing behind him, stepped forward and activated the holographic projection built into the table, and the bright stars outlined by green light appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Qing Ming quickly moved the rotating projection screen with his fingers and said at the same time:
"Searching for the keyword 'Adamantua', a total of three places appear: the Adamantua sector, the Adamantua galaxy, and the Adamantua forge world in the galaxy. This galaxy is about six weeks away from Terra. voyage."
The holographic projection was fixed on a galaxy.
Fu Qinghai stared at the projection picture in front of him.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and rubbed his chin with his fingers.
Matched up with his memory.
Fu Qinghai knew about the "Beast Wars", a famous plot line event in the Warhammer 40K universe, and even the fragmented scenes that the Emperor passed to him that he still vaguely remembered contained some flashbacks. But in his previous life, he had only seen some simple video summaries, and was not clear about every specific detail of Beast War and what happened at every time point.
"I probably... got it."
Fu Qinghai sorted through his memories:
"The orcs haven't arrived in Terra yet, we still have time. Go to Chogris as planned."
"Understood, Khan!"
Everyone present nodded in agreement.
At the same time, Fu Qinghai was quietly sighing in his heart: the key word he gave for divination was "Fist of the Empire", and the result of the blind divination was "a sign of great misfortune"... The Fist of the Empire, the founding battle group, might be afraid at this time Already close to destruction.
