Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

…

In the lower hive of the hive world, a Mechanicum priest named Vic is observing a device called the teleportation station.

Whenever someone enters or exits the bottom nest, a crack will appear around the teleportation device, and then a person will appear out of thin air at the location where the crack opens.

This is a magical sight. Vic has never seen a teleportation device that is so stable and usable by civilians.

As Vic observes, a modified human skull floats next to Vic.

The eyes of this thing called a servo skull flash with red light, projecting a red scanning line to scan the transmission device. During the scan, the recording device installed under the skull will automatically compile the scanned results.

After another observation, Vic looked at the long stack of paper written by the servo-skull.

There was data on various energy changes on the paper. Vic could only read one thing from the data, and that was that there would be a strong energy reaction around the transmission device when it was transmitting.

This result is not helpful for research, it just means that there is such a thing.

Vic was even more curious about the principle of the transmission device in front of him and what powered it. Is it a terminal device or something similar to a locator?

But alas these questions will not be answered.

Vic thought that this teleportation device was like the Guards Power Armor Black Ball Robot Battleship or something like that. No one in the hive world would explain the principles of these things to him unless they got permission from their superiors.

"Record the expedition log." Vic ordered the servo skull with an electronic code. "This time during the expedition in the lower nest of the hive city, we did not see any researchers, nor did we find any research facilities. This makes me confused. What I saw Who researched the creation that we arrived at?"

"It is impossible for the three worlds in the Tyrone system to have research capabilities."

"I can't make a conclusion yet, but after analyzing the existing conditions, I can conclude that there is indeed a high possibility of STC templates existing in the Tyrone galaxy. I will try my best to find STC templates and take them away safely. In order Om Messiah.”

Many people passed by Vic when he was talking, but they were just curious about this weird man wearing a big red robe with few pieces of flesh visible on his body. These people could not understand what Vic was saying.

Even what the servo skull records is a long string of 1s and 0s that cannot be combined.

"Log encrypted logs."

After the servo skull quickly recorded the ordinary inspection log, Vic ordered again.

The servo skull did not record on the paper tube hanging on the lower jaw, but turned on the encrypted recording device integrated inside the skull to record what its owner said next.

"The Great Sage was right to appoint me to accompany the Inquisitors. I have discovered something interesting."

"There is a small group of people in the hive world who believe in a kind of creator god. They believe that the black sphere mechanical creations here and the things they create are sacred. Ninety-eight percent of the people under observation advocate transformation of prosthetic bodies. This belief should not have appeared and spread for a long time, and it has not spread on a large scale."

"I tried to ask the governor who manages the three worlds of Tailong about the belief in the creation gods and the origins of all technological creations, but he was unwilling to answer. The reason is speculated: the level of trust in me is not high, and it may not be until the arrival of the great sage. Deeper inspection and research can be conducted.”

"I……"

While Vic was recording, he suddenly felt someone standing behind him. The mechanical structure of his neck was working, and his head turned behind him to look at the person behind him.

It was Qin Mo who had granted him the inspection permission before.

"What did you see?" Qin Mo asked, staring at the transmission device.

"The energy reading near the teleportation device is very high, that's all it has for the time being." Vic confessed.

Qin Mo just smiled and nodded.

Vic didn't know why he was laughing, and he didn't want to delve into the causes of biological emotions. He just wanted to know more: "What principle is the teleportation device based on?"

"I allow you to conduct an inspection and pass the information obtained from the inspection to the judges after I review it. You are only here to inspect, not to learn." Qin Mo shook his head.

When Lena first came to the Tyrone galaxy, she had a tough attitude, and the two sides were at war with each other.

It was Vic who flew back and forth in a small plane inside and outside the space fortress, trying to mediate and ease the situation as much as possible. This was one of the reasons why Vic obtained the inspection permit, but it was not the main reason.

The main reason is that Vic is Call's subordinate.

Qin Mo intends to promote the dimensional engine among human races and reduce human dependence on subspace.

If there was anyone in a high position in the Empire who was willing to embrace new technology, it was Belisarius Caul.

Caul develops the Primaris Space Marines, and will cooperate with the Eldar Death Army forces to resurrect Guilliman in the future. He is a relatively enlightened person, although he does not represent all members of the Mechanicus, or even the Mechanicus. Most people, but after all, he is also a great sage of the Mechanicum.

"Has the Governor considered the worst case scenario?" Vic suddenly asked, "There may be a formal inquisitor arriving soon. He does not care about the interests of anyone else. He is like most people in the inquisition. Bloodlust, and then the war begins.”

After a pause, Vic continued, "You must know that the Inquisition is not someone's puppet."

After hearing this question, Qin Mo felt that it was really possible. Someone like Lena, who is not even a formal Inquisitor, will be restrained by Vic. If it were a more senior member of the Inquisition who was determined to destroy the Tyrone Galaxy, it would be difficult not to start a war.

After thinking carefully for a long time, Qin Mo suddenly shook his head: "This galaxy has not fallen to the point where even life and death must be decided by others. At least for the time being, it is impossible to start a war, unless you just want one more enemy."

"You..." Vic analyzed this word and what Qin Mo meant by this sentence.

At first, Vic thought that Qin Mo had long wanted to rebel, but then he thought that if he had long wanted to rebel, he would have succumbed to the various heretical factions in the galaxy.

In the end, Vic came to the conclusion that the man in front of him was generally a good person, but to him the empire and humanity should not be the same concept.

Vic continued his analysis, and he remembered some ancient history, and suddenly felt that the Tyrone Galaxy was a bit like Ran Dan during the Great Crusade.

Although Vic only knew about Ran Dan during the Great Crusade that there was such a place, and it caused a lot of headaches for people at the time. The Tyrone Galaxy was definitely not at Ran Dan's level, and he couldn't catch up with him.

Tai Lung is not as good as Ran Dan, but can the empire compare to the empire back then?

After conducting a long series of analyses, Vick believed that if he wanted to continue the investigation, he must make some slight changes in his stance.

But he thought there were more important things, far more important things than the mission Call had given him.

"Can you let me know more about the creator gods who are believed in on your planet?" Vic suddenly made a request that seemed to Qin Mo to be unreasonable.

"I don't mind taking you through it, but only if you tell me something." Qin Mo nodded.

"What's going on?" Vic asked.

Under Vic's gaze, Qin Mo said slowly: "On your ship, the one intercepted by my people near Mandeville Point... Where does Reina live on the ship?"

Vic thought carefully for a moment, then answered where Lena spent most of her time on the ship.

However, Qin Mo didn't need Vic to provide Lena's location at all. With his ability to mimic, he could even know what Lena was doing now.

But Vic's answers could indicate he has a special bent.

Qin Mo also has his own big plan. Getting rid of Lena is not a big deal. Vic and Kaul are the most important parts of the plan.
