Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

…

After entering the webway opened by Vashtor using the Discord Engine, Qin Mo looked around and found that this place was completely different from what he had imagined.

There are no huge defenders, defense machinery, or various military buildings.

Marks of decay and decay, and some unknown things mixed with flesh and machinery can be seen everywhere here, and the barrier-like things of the Webway are not the golden color of the Ancient Saint's Webway, and there are more things here that should not exist. Something like this.

For example, the severed limbs were obviously human and had not been mutated. They were wearing the military uniforms of the mortal Chaos believers seen on the battlefield just now, but there were no mutated corpses on their bodies.

Human corpses and severed limbs can be seen everywhere in the extremely vast webway.

Some of the human corpses were much larger than most of the others. These large corpses were hidden in bone-colored armor. Just by the color of the armor, you could tell that they were Astartes from the Dark Angels.

"It looks like there was a battle here." Guilliman crouched down and inspected any place he thought there might be any clues.

Qin Mo turned around and looked behind him.

It was not only Guilliman who entered the webway together, but also Piccolo and Thrall who drove the Titan.

Compared to Guilliman, these two people obviously have faster investigation capabilities.

"A battle did break out here." Thrall communicated with the prophet in the Titan and obtained more and more detailed information.

"A battle broke out?" Qin Mo frowned and glanced around, and then asked: "This big Titan can make a battle break out in this small place. There are so many pure human corpses that it seems that the expeditionary army has already fought with Chaos here. It seems like the servants had a big fight, but we didn’t know about it?”

"These corpses were indeed Imperials when they were alive." Guilliman stood up and said, "But they should not die here. I have read all the battle records from the beginning of our attack on the Iron Ring to the Titan melee on the Unbreakable Line. No one entered the Webway. , we didn’t even know the enemy was capable of creating a webway.”

After finishing speaking, Guilliman raised his head and looked around the vast space and twisted barriers in the entire Webway, and whispered: "The enemy has the ability to open up the Webway at will... and my father... he paid for the construction of the Webway. Too much... I don’t know how he felt when he found out about it.”

Qin Mo and Guilliman looked at each other, their moods as complicated as their expressions.

After the Great Crusade, the Emperor attempted to construct the Webway to give humanity the ability to travel faster than light via non-Warp means, but this plan failed when Magnus attempted to inform Terra of Horus's Heresy.

Psychic energy penetrated the fragile fabric of the Webway, allowing the warp daemons to directly invade the webway, which was one of the reasons why the Emperor sat on the Golden Throne.

When the fragment of the Emperor's consciousness possessing Vanessa warned about the Discord Engine, Qin Mo was present. He only saw a calm face, and "Vennessa" had no expression at all.

"The problem is not that Vashtor has the ability to build the webway but your father does not." Qin Mo said, "The problem is that your father never dreamed of the Heart of Plague, Tuchucha Engine, Ouroboros, etc. The thing that looks like 'I am the creature of evil' written on his face turns out to be related to the fulfillment of his long-cherished wish."

Guilliman has never seen the Three Artifacts, but he can tell from the names of these three things that they definitely don't look that good: "Perhaps this is also the reason why Lion has been hiding the existence of the Three Artifacts."

"Caliban Laoden is hiding more than just the three artifacts." Qin Mo said and looked at Thrall, "Consult the prophet about what is going on here."

"They are indeed humans, and they are indeed soldiers of the Human Empire, Astartes."

Thrall directly stated everything he sensed from the prophet.

"They did fight here, with the people of Vashtor. It's just that they couldn't hold on for even a second in front of the Titan Legion, a large number of knights and other killing machines that were preparing to leave the webway. The entire army was wiped out.”

"They are not people who participated in the Golden Crusade, but people sent by the Inquisition to investigate unknown jagged portals in various places, the Inquisitors and their entourage, and the transferred Stormtroopers."

"As for the Astartes, they are also members of the Dark Angels. The purpose of their coming here is to track down the fragments of Caliban. When the enemy troops who followed this network path to the unbreakable defense line arrived, the Dark Angels were fighting with the Inquisitor. There was an exchange of gunfire, and then they were all taken out of a pot.”

All Thrall could hear was the murmur of the prophet's soul within the titan, and that was all the prophet told him.

"I did receive some information from the Inquisition about jagged portals that suddenly appeared in certain galaxies..." Guilliman recalled, "But why did the Dark Angels track down the fragments of Caliban and come here? ? Caliban has been shattered to pieces long ago and even Tyrone Engineering Department cannot stick it together..."

"Caliban was broken into pieces, but it did not disappear completely. There are still some fragments." Qin Mo interrupted Guilliman's question. "Those fragments of the Caliban planet were used by Vashtor to piece together a planet called The new planet of Longlin Star has now become a demon world."

"You know everything?" Guilliman frowned, "My father's analysis of the prophecy did not mention this. We are related to each other naked in the bathtub, but you hide such an important thing from me like Ryan."

Qin Mo was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to explain.

He originally thought that he did not need to mention the Vashtor Discord Engine, because he did not think that Vashtor could obtain the three artifacts to synthesize the Discord Engine at first. He thought that the butterfly storm he caused was big enough.

Because of the victory at the Battle of Cartier, the Great Rift did not unfold. Since Lion King doesn't have to fight alone in the Dark Side Division of the Empire created by the Great Rift, he returns directly to the Empire. Because Abaddon is dead, he and Vashtor cannot "reach an agreement with the evil forces", and Vashtor seems to have no chance of fishing in troubled waters to obtain the three artifacts.

All in all, it was still a miscalculation. But Qin Mo is not a stubborn person. He will not let the misunderstanding go unsolved, but will let it slowly ferment.

"I never wanted to hide it. The problem is that I know too many things, but we haven't been together for long. I can't tell you everything I know word for word like a storyteller. Among them, Some things cannot be sent directly by communication or written on paper."

"We all started thinking about sewing up the Eye of Terror. I didn't expect that Vashtor could jump out with the Discord Engine."

Guilliman listened quietly to Qin Mo's explanation and nodded. After thinking about it, he asked a question: "Who helped Vashtor obtain the three artifacts?"

"It's not Abaddon who has eighteen holes in his body anyway." Qin Mo turned around and walked forward.

Guilliman looked at the Eldar Titan, and was about to ask Thrall to ask his prophet, but Thrall controlled the Titan's head to slowly turn, silently expressing that the prophet was not a universal answering machine.

Guilliman looked at Piccolo again.

Piccolo, the iron man with the shape of a human skeleton, had no expression on his face. He simply ignored Guilliman and followed Qin Mo's pace.

Even the living rocket launcher in its hand didn't even look at Guilliman.
