Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind

Chapter 255 Silent Underground Street

The leader of the Killing Order is named Reva Galen, and his adjutant is named Revatian. The two are twin sisters conceived from the same uterus. For this reason, Koroniai specially added an extra uterus to the uterus. umbilical cord.

...Speaking of which is the elder sister and which is the younger sister?

Russell tried to ask Reva Galen this question, and the answer was that they themselves didn’t know. Because the process of giving birth to life in the Tree of Life is highly automated, the twins were born at the same time without the normal order of birth.

Then this issue is quite vague. I wonder if Reva Galen and Reva Tien usually fight over issues such as who is the elder sister and who is the younger sister.

But the Eldar warriors trained by Koroniai shouldn't be so naive... right?

In the end, Russell still couldn't muster up the courage to ask Reva Galen this question face to face. It would be too unbelievable for the superior star bombers and the existence of the mistress who supports their faith to be interested in the gossip between sisters. .

He might be considered a strange person.

Suffering from strong curiosity all the way, the Pot of Greed passed through the star gate and came to the Kerenna sector - the star of Hell.

The giant stone fortress that once parked in the orbit of the planet has long since left. Now there is only one satellite of the planet. Under the dark red dust clouds on the surface of the planet is a fragile land riddled with holes, and countless dense mines and industrial furnaces. The scars of war left by Chaos Warmaster Abaddon's warbands still remain.

The situation at that time... forget about the Dark Angels, but Russell remembered that this planet was controlled by the Adeptus Mechanicus, and it was actually destroyed like this.

"The oil man's ground battle is so messed up." Russell couldn't help but sigh. However, he knew in his heart that the construction of Yan Mingxing's star gate had not been completed at that time. The reason why Yan Mingxing could not be defended was probably because the oil guy deployed most of his manpower at the star gate.

It is not necessarily a deployment. As far as Russell knows, almost all Mechanicus sages regard the construction of star gates as a very sacred thing. They believe that while the star gate network links countless galaxies, it also connects them to the God of All Machines. At the same time, countless people are vying to participate in the project without even being paid, fighting for the opportunity to work for free.

The high-ranking priests who usually relied on their own talents and were arrogant and looked down upon even the governor of the planet, wielded the sacred Ax of Ohm Messiah and chopped each other passionately in the foundry ship of the Adeptus Mechanicus, causing electricity to shoot out and gears to fly around. . In the end, I used my lifelong contacts to force my way in.

So Russell really didn't doubt that the Adeptus Mechanicus would transfer all of the main defensive weapons of Yanming Star to protect the satellite gate, and that they could do such a thing.

Therefore, in a sense, Abaddon caught a loophole: the Dark Angel was crippled by Gray Wind and then entangled by Fulgrim. The oil guy went to repair the star gate and the main force was not at home. Our invincible Chaos Warmaster just happened to start. With the black legion on the wedding ship, the mighty army came to Yan Mingxing menacingly and then... broke into an empty gate.

"Abaddon is so lucky," Revatien sighed.

"Is this the Son of Destiny?" Riva Galen agreed.

"Luck is also a part of strength." Russell said and clapped his hands gently: "Okay, get ready, we won't stop at Yan Mingxing this time, and go directly to Kerentalina."

Reva Galen was a little confused: "But this ship's jump engine has just been started once by you, and it still needs about 200 standard Terra days of cooling time."

Not all battleships can reset the cooldown by disassembling and reorganizing themselves like the Gray Goo Mothership, and there is no stargate directly leading to Kerentalina.

"We go to subspace." Russell said.

Thanks to the huge size of the Titan ship, the Pot of Greed has enough space to accommodate two super-light speed modes, the jump engine and the subspace engine, which can be used interchangeably.

But as soon as Russell's words came out, Revatian and Reva Galen both opened their eyes at the same time.

"I know you have an instinctive resistance to subspace navigation, but relax and feel at ease. At least at this stage, I can walk sideways in the Sea of ​​Souls." Russell smiled and ordered the battleship AI to control the Sea of ​​Greed. The Kettle is heading to the Mandeville Point in the star system where Pluto is located.

Start the engine, tear the curtain apart, and the Pot of Greed sails into the sea of ​​souls.

By the time the Titan ship surfaced from the turbulent ether currents, Revateen could already see the rubble belt outside Kerentalina with his naked eyes.

"Here we are."

The Pot of Greed avoided the patrol route of the Klenna fleet and arrived at the Klentalina orbit. Benhart Medius's cruise ship had been waiting in the dock for a long time.

Before setting off, Russell informed him of his coming in advance. Banhart also knew that Russell did not like playing cards and valued efficiency, so there was no grand welcome banquet or complicated etiquette, and the two went straight to the point.

After parking the ship and descending to the surface of the planet, Banhart dismissed all the waiters and walked with Russell in a secret corridor deep in the hive. The crisp sound of metal heels hitting the ground echoed in the deep corridor. The click echoed.

"Long time no see, Sir Russell's style is still as simple as before." As he walked, Banhart randomly found a topic to compliment his character.

Although the words were flattering, Banhart did not feel that they were against his will. Russell's style was indeed unique. When he first came to Klentalina, he did not bring any waiters with him. Even Banhart arranged for him The 14-day tour of Jade Star was rejected.

Now on his second visit to Klenna, Russell is still alone.

Presumably, Lord Russell must be very powerful, otherwise how could he be entrusted with such an important task by that mysterious star bomber.

"You don't have to compliment me so much. You should be smart enough to know that not everyone likes to be praised. For some people, trying to please them will only cause boredom. It's better to use your energy to do the things you should do." Russell The sound was mixed with the crisp footsteps, appearing deep and ethereal.

"You are right." Banhart nodded and sneered: "Instead of using roundabout social skills to win people's hearts, it is better to use real benefits to maintain cooperative relationships."

Then the atmosphere between the two fell silent again, and only scattered footsteps echoed in the winding corridor.

Banhart took Russell all the way to the depths of the nest. The winding paths were crisscrossed and twisted. From time to time, you needed to jump through the shafts between the upper nest, the middle nest, and even the lower nest and the bottom nest. It was like a There are huge spider webs that overlap each other.

Obviously, Banhart deliberately took a long detour. He was taking Russell to a secret place. He did not want the exact location of that place to be leaked, not even to the messenger of the Star Bomber.

About 45 minutes of silence have passed, and this long walk is finally reaching the end. Along the way, you will occasionally encounter some masked figures in black robes hurriedly walking by, either alone or in groups of two. swarms.

People coming and going are always in a hurry without saying anything, walking quickly through the spider webs in silence, and Russell's road has reached the end.

Ahead is a dead end.

"The passage we just walked through is actually an ancient product left over from the golden age."

Banhart slowed down and walked to the end of the dead end, stretched out his hand to touch the cold and hard wall in front of him, and said: "The huge webway system covers the entire planet. Through it, we can quickly reach any corner on Klentalina. .”

Russell's eyebrows were raised slightly and he smiled silently.

"From the perspective of physics and engineering, it is almost impossible to build such a set of network tunnels on a planet. It would consume too much space and occupy too many resources, but at this moment this is not possible. The finished product of the possible project is right in front of us, under your feet and mine." Banhart took a deep breath, turned around and looked directly into Russell's eyes:

"You are a powerful psyker, Mr. Russell. You must have felt the unusualness of this system from the moment you set foot on the passage. Yes, its construction and dependence are closely related to the subspace. The Golden Man comes from reality. This set of micro-networks covering the planet was excavated in the interlayer between the universe and the subspace... In fact, what the ancients referred to when building it was the giant ancient holy network that spanned the starry sky."

Russell was still smiling, his calm eyes as calm as a pool of stagnant water: "It's basically the same as my guess."

The rubble belt on the periphery of the Klentalina galaxy is the product of the fragmentation of the 'Metropolis' giant planet in the golden age. How could there be no gold on Klentalina, which is in the same galaxy as the Metropolis giant planet? What about the legacy people leave behind?

It’s just that this legacy is a bit big.

"We can quickly reach any corner on Klentalina through the micro-network tunnel, but we also need to pay attention to two major limitations when using it." Banhart continued:

"First, the bandwidth of the micro network channel is limited, and no large vehicles can enter it. The limit is to barely pass a small vehicle like a hoverbike, but most people will choose to walk."

"That goes to the second restriction."

"Second, the micro-webway is closely related to the subspace. It is carved out by the golden people from the curtain between the real universe and the subspace. However, because Krentalina is on the edge of the Eye of Terror, the curtain here is already very large. Fragile.

The thin curtain has become more fragile due to the digging of the network channel. Therefore, some strange phenomena often occur deep in the micro network channel system.

Occasionally, demons crawl out from another dimension and wander through the passages like ghosts. Sometimes they become bored after wandering for a few hours and return to the warp. Sometimes they linger in the micro-webway for decades. …

Therefore, people who enter the micro-network should try to hold their breath and concentrate, not make too much noise to disturb 'them', and try to suppress some not-so-good thoughts - dark thoughts will also attract demons. "

That's why people walking in the micro-network are so hurried and silent... It is estimated that it will be particularly dangerous for psykers to walk in the micro-network.

"Because of these two characteristics, the micronet system has a more appropriate name in Klentalina's underworld." Banhart said:

"——Silent underground street."

"It's a good name..." Russell touched his chin: "But if you talk to me here for a long time, aren't you afraid of triggering restrictions and attracting demons?"

"We have reached the end, and we can relax a little." Banhart Medius said with a smile: "And even if there is a one-in-one chance that the devil is attracted, I still have the ability to escape from this 'silent underground street' calmly." 'Methods."

How could the governor of the dignified planet not carry some means of self-protection with him when he goes underground personally?

Russell thought so, so he cast his gaze behind Banhart and at the end of the dead end: "Then our end point is this wall?"

Banhart laughed, with some relief in his laughter. It seemed that the Star Destroyer was not omniscient and omnipotent, and there was something on Krentalina that could confuse the Star Destroyer's envoy.

"Krentarina's planetary government has never really controlled the entire Silent Underground Street. For thousands of years, this set of micro-networks has been jointly used by various people on the planet. It is the main underground transaction for those bottom-hive scum. network.

Criminals, black businessmen, mutants, aliens... I don't know how many evil things are hidden in the intricate network. "

Having said this, Governor Banhart suddenly smiled mysteriously: "The place I brought you to today is the dirtiest corner of the Silent Underground Street."

As his voice fell, a few rays of fuzzy light suddenly appeared at the end of the dead end of the webway in front of him.

The cold and hard wall in the darkness suddenly melted like solid ice, and the heavy and simple plastic concrete bricks dispersed like smoke, as if it was just a blur in front of Russell's eyes, and a different scene appeared in front of Russell.

Behind the wall is a complex building similar to a bar, a castle, or a department store. Mutants with deformed appendages can be seen shaking their heads under the colorful lights, and there are pale, rickety figures huddled in the corners of tables and chairs. They were smoking something, and the excited men and women danced and combined directly in front of the public, attracting bursts of cheers from the surrounding onlookers, and people kept joining in.

"Mutants are not considered human by the standards of the Human Empire. Therefore, on some densely populated planets, the total population counted by the Ministry of Interior is often 1/3 to 300% less than the actual number."

As Banhart walked forward, he said: "This is one of the transit nodes of the Silent Underground Street. It is one of the observation stations/consoles set up by the Golden Man in the micro-network channel to observe the fluctuations of the subspace curtain. But since the Iron Man rebellion and After the Long Night, no one on Klentalina was able to activate or repair the observatory.

It has now become a place of indulgence for countless low-level scum, with people from all walks of life mixed in. "

Russell's expression remained unchanged and he nodded nonchalantly: "You said before that you have a friend who has some channels with the Dark Eldar and can obtain a large number of living Eldar created using cloning technology... Is that friend here?"

"I made an appointment with it to meet here." Banhart said truthfully: "Maybe it's because the amount of money I owe you is too huge. Even that friend has never smuggled such a large number of living spirits, so Some were wary and reluctant to agree to my request.

But later it got "certain rumors" from somewhere and took the initiative to contact me, expressing the hope that I could connect it and let it meet the messenger of the Star Destroyer in person. "

"Interesting..." Russell became interested. The word Banhart used to call that friend was not him or her, but it.

It was obvious that Banhart did not regard his friend as a human being, but he was a person who would use "he" to refer to mutants.
