Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

…

The main fleet of the Golden Expedition continued to conduct in-depth scans of Broome.

The scan results were reported into the bridge one after another, allowing those who can make decisions to have a general understanding of the current situation of this abominable planet.

"The black stone creations have formed a network of nodes on Broome. They enhance each other's effectiveness, and eventually the entire star system where Broome is located gradually returns to a realistic state."

"There are a lot of hostile creatures left on Broome, and those transformed irrational monsters can be seen almost everywhere."

"In addition, there are many new human guerrilla armies fighting on Broome."

"There are also some remaining Black Legion personnel who were left on Broome for unknown reasons and did not disappear inexplicably."

"The other thing is about the star system. The two conjoined stars in this star system have mutated after being realized. They have caused a series of astronomical disasters, and it can be expected that they will cause disasters after a period of time. The star system is completely destroyed.”

"..."

As the AI ​​that collected the information spoke out pieces of information that had been sorted out and confirmed, everyone on the bridge roughly understood Bloom's current situation.

"It seems that Typhons and the like have really escaped." Ryan looked confused. "If I remember correctly, when the weird storm started, the psychic methods were not very effective. How could they Could he have escaped so smoothly? That storm was almost equivalent to a subspace storm."

"Who knows." Guilliman had no idea.

The two original bodies didn't know the specific situation and couldn't deduce it.

But Qin Mo thought of something in his heart.

Tuchucha Engine.

Together with the Plague Heart and Ouroboros, they are called the Three Artifacts, and the destruction of Caliban is also related to these three artifacts.

Lion had used the Tuchucha Engine during the Horus Heresy. It was so powerful that it could even traverse subspace storms.

but……

Qin Mo glanced at Ryan.

Ryan seemed to have no idea that the enemy might be using the Tuchucha engine, but Qin Mo didn't think that he really didn't know.

From his brothers, Ryan deliberately concealed the existence of the three artifacts.

However, Qin Mo couldn't conclude that Ryan was 100% silent, because he also knew that he could guess that the reason why Typhons Vashtor and his like were able to leave Broome quickly was because of the use of the Tuchucha engine. And the reason why he made such a guess was because he knew Vashtor's original fate.

The three artifacts are bound to be collected by Vashtor, and it will use the three artifacts to form an artifact called the Discord Engine.

The ultimate function of the Discord Engine is not yet clear, but it originated from the Old Ones and can open the Webway.

"Anyway, we won." Ryan smiled and pointed to Bloom outside the window, "We almost wiped out the Death Guard and half of the Black Legion, and the minions from the Dracasi Demon World were wiped out just now. !”

Ryan put his hand on Guilliman's shoulder again and said with a smile: "Although they don't have a boss who is good at writing books... But if they want to rebuild in the future, they can only rebuild it into a war group."

Guilliman held Ryan's hand, and then moved the Lion King's paw away: "I know you have always had opinions about splitting the Legion, but the Holy Code was necessary at the time. I just never dreamed that the Empire would abide by this thing. Ten thousand years.”

"Don't get carried away, Roboute." Ryan smiled and shook his head, ending the topic.

Then the three commanders of the main fleet began to think about the same thing.

That's the thing about the planet Bloom.

"I propose to completely destroy Bloom and the galaxy where Bloom is located." Qin Mo raised his hands to vote, "Because of the two stars derived from the war, this galaxy was originally dead, but considering the current Situation, I propose to destroy the entire galaxy, it is more convenient and faster."

Hearing this, Guilliman and Lion looked at each other.

The two Primarchs did not vote by show of hands, nor did they express their opposition clearly.

But Guilliman asked: "You have always advocated the protection of celestial bodies, and you have always believed that celestial bodies have a consolidating effect on the space of the real universe. If we destroy the entire star system, will it..."

"This star system itself is going to be destroyed. It has two conjoined suns." Qin Mo responded calmly, "Celestial bodies that interfere with each other and cannot exist stably for a long time will only be a crack in the real universe, let alone The celestial system is about to be destroyed."

Guilliman nodded.

Ryan then asked; "Then since it will be destroyed, why should we waste time destroying it? Just wait."

After saying that, Ryan looked outside the porthole again.

The two conjoined suns have reacted violently, and a catastrophe of the star system is about to come, and it will not come too late.

"I hope it will be destroyed in the way I want it to be." Qin Mo said, "Such pure mutual interference and explosion are far worse than turning them into black holes. I estimate that after they are transformed into black holes, their huge gravity and mass will Will weaken the influence of the Warp over a large area."

After a pause and observing the reactions of the two original bodies, Qin Mo added: "As for the principle... it's just like the subspace engine cannot go out close to the celestial body, otherwise there is a high probability that there will be big problems. Because This involves the influence of the celestial body’s gravity and its own mass..."

"So that's it." Guilliman suddenly realized.

Qin Mo looked at Ryan again.

The latter was already distracted.

Sensing Qin Mo's gaze, Ryan deliberately showed a pensive expression, and then asked a question: "So...aren't all the black stone creations we laid in this galaxy and on the planet Broome in vain? Are they all blinded? What if the black hole is destroyed?”

Qin Mo showed an awkward but polite smile: "We can break them down into raw materials and take them away."

"That's good, it's settled."

Ryan didn't care at all whether the black stone creation would be wasted. Anyway, he didn't need to waste his brain cells on logistical matters. He just asked a random question.

"I will find a way to catalyze the two stars in this galaxy into black holes. Then the fleet will not have to evacuate to avoid it." Qin Mo said: "At that time, we can watch the astronomical phenomena in the real universe while celebrating this expedition. stage victory."

Hearing this, Ryan nodded, groaned and raised his head to look up at the huge floor-to-ceiling porthole in front of him, which was as big as a tall building.

After a moment, the Lion King lowered his voice and said: "I'm not saying anything depressing...but, I'm wondering if the outcome of our expedition is victory. This ghost place called the Eye of Terror, if its outcome is... If it is shut down, then it should also be shut down in the past and in the future, but..."

Ryan's worries were also what Qin Mo had worried about before.

Some scholars who study subspace in the star region believe that it is impossible for humans to defeat subspace. Humanity should work towards completely sealing the real universe and subspace, rather than setting the ultimate goal of annihilating chaos.

If the dark gods end up being destroyed, then they will cease to exist in the past, present and future at the same time.

But they exist now.

"I don't know if we will win." Qin Mo confessed that he had no idea, "But no matter what the outcome is, we have to try and try our best. The dark gods are engaged in the craziest civil war, and this is probably our only chance. There is a chance that if there is a winner in the civil war between them, it will be hard to say."

Ryan pondered and nodded slowly: "Do your best."
