Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind

The Gray Gu mothership hovered quietly just above the whirlpool disk, with all its sensors reaching down, looking at the sky full of stars flowing in the same direction below, as if it was being sucked into the sea water in Guixu, and it no longer belonged to this place. world.

In the cabin of the gray goo mothership, the principle of the ring is rotating counterclockwise at a speed that cannot be captured by the naked eye. Vast energy flows in every scale of the ring, crushing the micro and tearing apart the macro. The time of the Lost Dream Stars goes back.

Gray Feng lay on Russell's knees and stared curiously at the inverted vortex star map in the holographic stereoscopic projection. Every bit of starlight flowing in it represented a star in its prime. In comparison, even if it was following The hive world ship behind the gray goo mothership also seemed so small.

It was the first time that I witnessed an astronomical scale of time travel.

Compared to Gray Feng's high spirits, Koroniai's mood was quite low. She leaned against Russell dejectedly, resting her chin on his shoulder, her face full of grievances.

I understand, it’s the kind of person who has worked so hard to build half of a spectacular castle with building blocks, but is asked to dismantle it before completion, and all the building blocks have to be put back into place, but he still can’t resist. ...Such a grievance.

What reverses entropy is the time of the entire Lost Dream Star Group. Any bit of matter from the miniature galaxy will be traced back to its original state by the principle of the ring, and return to that independent micro-universe to become its own corner again.

During this period of time, Koroniai collected biomass from all over the Lost Dreams Star Cluster to strengthen the insect swarm, and invested a lot of energy in completing the biological assimilation and transformation of the ark world of Fordola.

The biomass used to build the insect hive world also comes from the miniature galaxy.

"I didn't plan to go back here in the first place." Russell patted Koronniai's shoulder gently, not knowing how to comfort him, so he could only say:

"The full expansion of the Miniature Galaxy is inevitable. My original plan was for you to grow the insect swarm as much as possible here and develop enough strength before starting a war with the descendants of the warring Party C. That would be safer."

"But I also overlooked one thing: the expansion of the Lost Dream Star Group is an acceleration. As more and more galaxies are unfolded, the mass gap between the local universe and the micro-universe further widens. The growing strength of the siphon makes the shrinkage The galaxy is unfolding far beyond my expectations...and I will never let this war happen without preparation."

This is a big deal, and any possible mistake here will have disastrous consequences.

Therefore, even if the retracement of the Lost Dreams Star Cluster will drag away all the biomass collected by Coroniai in the Lost Dreams Star Cluster during this period, it will return to the miniature galaxy, causing it to spend a lot of time and energy to transform half of the hive world. Having to start all over again, Russell had to do the same.

As for Koroniai's mood, all he could say was that he was sorry.

"I'm sorry. It was my mistake that caused all your work during this period to be wasted."

Russell looked up at the whirlpool star map in front of him that was getting smaller and smaller as it rotated counterclockwise. He rubbed Koroniai's ears and said apologetically: "What compensation do you want me to give you?"

"Compensation...compensation..." Koroniai held his flushed cheeks in his hands and lowered his head: "You don't need to give me any compensation, Master, I am just a servant you raise, no matter how I am treated, I will Bear it with joy..."

So I still feel aggrieved... Russell sighed. Be it Gray Wind, Coroniai, or even the scientific research director and Bernadita, why are the people around me so dishonest?

"How about I go back and feed you Bao?" Russell asked softly: "Bao, which was cross-infected and mutated with the spores of the Orcs, grew very fast. Falla has now almost been greened into a jungle planet. ...Planet 3 and its satellites at the critical base are still idle. Do you want me to specially transform a few Gaia planets for you as snacks?"

"Hey? But, is it okay?" Koroniai suddenly raised his head with gleaming eyes, and his flushed cheeks were full of excitement.

Then it felt that this was too rude, so it quickly covered its mouth with both hands, trying its best to look more ladylike, but it couldn't stop the saliva secreted from its mouth, and the sticky saliva never stopped. It slipped from the fingers and dripped on Hui Feng's head, which was resting on Russell's knees.

"Pay attention to your image." Gray Feng helplessly disassembled and reconstructed the hair stained with saliva.

The organism is so troublesome that it cannot even control the most basic appetite.

Coroniai, who was immersed in joy, didn't care much about Gray Wind's disapproval. He was able to get several delicious Gaia planets as gifts from his master. Even if the hive world that was finally built had to be disintegrated, it would not There will be no more negative emotions.

Koroniai swept away the previous depression and grievance, and happily hugged Russell, kissed him, and nibbled on him. His slimy tongue, which was longer than an adult's arm, licked his face with saliva, making Gray Wind feel gloating.

After being pushed away by Russell in disgust, Koroniai was not depressed. Instead, he and Gray Wind looked at the holographic star map projection in front of them with interest - the whirlpool star cluster had now shrunk to less than one-tenth of its original size. Big or small.

The Hive World, which has completed most of its assimilation process, is floating in the sky above the astrolabe, with crimson tentacles floating in space. It has a similar effect to the Gray Goo Mothership's sensors, allowing it to "see" the Lost Dreams Constellation more clearly and intuitively. backtracking process.

…Wait a minute, why is the Hive World still the same?

Koroniai suddenly felt confused.

Almost all of the biomass it used to build the insect hive world was collected from the indigenous planets of the Dreamless Star Cluster. Now that the vortex has reversed and shrunk to less than one-tenth of its original size, the planets it had previously swallowed have long since disappeared into the dense starlight.

The planets themselves have been traced back, so why is the biomass I devoured from those planets still intact?

The same doubts also appeared in the hearts of Russell and Hui Feng.

Gray Wind took a handkerchief and wiped Russell's saliva from Coronia's face. All the sensors of the Gray Goo mothership changed their target to the Fordola World Ship floating behind him, and quickly completed the task. A simple scan.

"Reporting to the Marshal, the total mass of the Fordola World Ship is basically the same as before the Ring Principle was activated, and there is no sign of being torn apart by time regress."

Koroniai also answered: "I can feel that the mother tree of life growing in the core of the world ship is still functioning normally, and the Eldar embryos in the bud are also developing very healthily, and they will be able to produce your second child soon." A batch of larvae..."

After listening to their report, Russell looked up and saw that the whirlpool star cluster in the Lost Dream Nebula shown on the real-time star map had shrunk to the size of only one A-class star. It disappeared in a short period of time, leaving only the dust cloud disturbed by gravity still floating in the void.

This is so weird...

"Reverse entropy, have you noticed any abnormalities during the operation of the ring principle?" Russell asked.

"Everything is normal, except that the energy consumed exceeds expectations, there are no suspicious parameters. An almost perfect astronomical traceback, Mr. and Mrs. Starbouncer." The fist-sized cube core responded calmly.

"Just call me my administrator from now on, don't call me sir or madam."

"Okay, Administrator."

In the center of the Lost Dream Nebula, the dense spot formed by countless stars is shrinking rapidly. First it was the size of a star, and soon it was only the size of a planet, and then it was not even as big as Falla.

Counter-entropy says that there are no suspicious parameters, which means that there are literally no suspicious parameters. Whether it is the operation of the ring principle or the contraction of the spiral galaxy group, it is completely consistent with its calculation model, and the total amount of material recovered for the miniature galaxy has no deviation. .

But "nothing" itself is the most terrifying thing.

Because matter will move in physical space, undergo chemical reactions and transform into other forms, and even transform from matter into energy, but it will not disappear or be created out of thin air.

"The biomass collected by Koroniai from the Lost Dreams Star Cluster is still stored in the Fodlan World Ship, and has not been pulled back by time. However, the total amount of material recovered by the Miniature Galaxy during the backtracking is not lacking..."

This violates the conservation of matter.

"What filled the hole?"

"What makes the biomass in the world of Fodlan break away from the miniature galaxy and prevent it from being traced back?"

All kinds of strange phenomena happened together, which made Russell feel some indescribable strange feeling in his heart, including doubts and worries...all at the same time.

The only thing that responded to him was the empty universe and the unevenly distributed cosmic dust that was disturbed by the gravity of celestial bodies.

"Administrator, the vortex is about to completely shrink back to the singularity. The damaged container of the Miniature Galaxy is expected to be repaired in 8 minutes. Are you going to prepare for recycling now?" Anti-Entropy asked.

Russell was still immersed in that weird state and did not immediately answer the words of Anti-Entropy.

Gray Feng gently hugged Russell's shoulders worriedly, ready to turn into a torrent of micro-mechanics at any time and swallow him completely inside his body: "Marshal, what's wrong with you? I feel like you are a little weird, different from usual. And…it’s kind of scary.”

Even Gray Feng found it incredible that he actually found the Marshal "terrible".

Koroniai was used to being afraid of Russell, so he didn't feel uncomfortable. Through the sharp synaptic nerves and the fused souls, he could feel that his master seemed to be attracted by something. It seemed that something was calling him, and he wanted to answer it.

what is that?

Seeing Russell's delay in giving instructions, Gray Wind did not rush close to the microscopic star cluster that was undergoing its final contraction. For it, the strange situation of the Marshal was much more important than the miniature Milky Way.

"Can you hear me? Marshal, I will do a full body check for you right away. I -" Suddenly, Gray Feng's somewhat panicked words and Koroniai's concerned eyes were stunned at the same moment.

The machine and the insect looked at each other, and they realized the same thing: "You feel it too?"

Gray Wind and Koroniai nodded at the same time.

The holographic real-time star map in the cabin has turned into a blazing energy ball focusing on the energy of countless stars, and it is getting bigger and bigger.

This is a visual error. The star cluster that gathers the entire Lost Dream Nebula is still shrinking until it returns to the singularity. The reason Gray Wind sees it getting bigger is because it's getting closer.

To be precise, the Gray Gu Mothership and the Fordola World Ship were approaching the microscopic galaxy group located at the center of the vortex.

"We have been captured! An irresistible gravity is pulling us towards the singularity!" Gray Wind immediately came to a conclusion.

But what is the source of gravity?

The answer is obvious.

Through the super-light sensor, Gray Feng could see that in addition to the miniature Milky Way in the center of the whirlpool, the thin or thick cosmic dust scattered among the stars had also been captured by some powerful force, attracted, and pulled into countless strands. Fiber-like clouds and threads stretch towards the singular point in the center of the vortex.

Gray Feng turned his head as if facing a powerful enemy, and saw a sophisticated ring-shaped machine quietly placed in the cabin - the operation of the ring principle had long ended.

Time travel that violates the conservation of matter, a huge gravity of unknown origin, and a marshal in a strange state...

"What exactly happened here?" The emotion called confusion filled Gray Feng's entire consciousness.

Later, when the Gray Goo mothership was pulled into the endless gathering dust by the huge gravity, all its onboard sensors failed.

This failure is not that no signal is detected, but that too many signals are detected.

It saw it, it heard it, it smelled it, and it touched it... Words that existed but did not exist floated among the stardust.

Electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves, spectra, vibrations, the movement of quarks...that signal is present in every way. All energy and matter inside and outside the universe are singing a prayer about a certain existence, whether it is positive or negative.

All the sensors received the same signal in various forms at the same time. An endless amount of information poured into Koroniai's mind from every nerve, and echoed into Gray Wind's self-awareness from every inch of the circuit. .

However, when they really wanted to decode the content, they discovered that the vast information actually only contained a few sentences.

At this time, Russell suddenly sighed leisurely.

He moved his gaze away from the holographic projection in front of him, and his calm gaze seemed to pass through Gray Wind's hull, staring directly at the singular point of change in the center of the vortex.

Russell did not speak, but a poem was sung from his mouth:

"Time is horizon, gravity is desire."

"The past is the future and the future is the past."

"Time is like a ring, reincarnation continues."

"The cycle of time never ends, but not every cycle is complete..."

Pieces of fragmented sentences described the origin, form, and end of a certain existence. Gray Feng felt as if he understood who the marshal was talking to, but he seemed to not really understand anything.

The existence of "His" itself is beyond the understanding of all intelligent creatures.

"Marshal, what is that?" Gray Feng asked softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing someone's dream.

Russell also responded softly: "It's an insect."
