Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

"Ha ha ha ha."

"That's right!"

Guilliman laughed heartily.

Unlike Lion, as a non-cold Primarch with a sense of humor, Guilliman has always liked working with Qin Mo, because Qin Mo always faces everything optimistically and can always give people confidence.

The gradually dull atmosphere in the room was changed due to two heavy topics.

Until there was a knock on the door, and then a Praetorian guard walked in, and Guilliman became serious again.

If it were any other Praetorian Guard, Guilliman would not be very serious, but here comes Andreda. This Praetorian Guard is responsible for handling diplomatic affairs in the sector. There are always occasions when a big shot needs to appear to show sincerity. As the leader of Tyrone, The Planetary Defense Force sergeant who had been under his command since his early days was obviously a suitable "big shot".

And Anruida's coming here at this time must be related to the governor who killed his own people.

So Guilliman became serious.

"There is a small matter." What Anreda said was not what Guilliman was thinking. "A naval officer from the communications department on the flagship found me and hoped that I could help report this matter... I thought about it, I decided to help with this..."

"Say it." Qin Mo nodded.

"This naval officer has a child. This child is about twelve years old, but he is coming to the end of his life. This child is in a relatively remote place in the star sector. His wish is to see the triumphant returning naval fleet near the ground. Driving past the track,” said Andreda.

Hearing this, Qin Mo was stunned for a moment.

It is unbelievable that a twelve-year-old child is coming to the end of his life.

Regardless of age... If you want to see the triumphant naval fleet, every time the fleet assembles or goes out, a bunch of people go to the star port at the assembly point to watch. If you want to see the star port that goes directly to the navy's return route, then you have to do this. It's not a secret thing either.

Guilliman was equally puzzled, but he could think of more in an instant.

Guilliman felt that the matter reported by Anreda must have been delayed for a while. He probably waited for the news of the Sanguinius fleet to come over to report to the Lord of Tyrone, who no longer had to deal with the war. It was like running away by himself. Just come over and chat.

"Can they not even afford a ticket to any star port on the fleet's return route?" Qin Mo asked in shock.

"They really can't go because this officer's child is a child of fear." Anruida looked helpless.

Upon hearing the words "Son of Fear", Qin Mo understood everything instantly.

Children of Fear are children born in the Eye of Fear, and these children are different from children in the demon world. They are born in a fleet and are protected by the real space created by the Black Stone. However, the real space will conflict with the influence of subspace. , causing reality to become less realistic.

This is why the flow of time here in the fleet is different from that outside the Eye of Terror.

Children of Terror will suffer from a host of soul diseases as soon as they are born. No matter how advanced medical methods are, they will be unable to cure them. They will die at the age of thirteen at most.

As soon as they are born, they will be placed in a huge mountain-like device that binds and stabilizes their souls. They will inevitably die when they are thirteen years old.

Naval personnel have been strictly prohibited from having children within the Eye of Terror, but no matter what happens, there is always a way to deal with it before it is discovered.

After these children of fear were born, no one dared to take them out of the Eye of Terror. The medical research department in the sector wanted to extend their lives by leaving them in an environment with high subspace influence, but failed. They were released not long ago. Send them all to the star area.

"When the Black Stone Structure is fully deployed and a triumphal route is planned, I probably won't be on the planet where the child is." Qin Mo said, calculating.

Anreda nodded.

"Not all starports in the star region can serve the fleet, and the star system where the child is located probably does not have a starport that can serve the fleet. Such a huge fleet requires a lot of preparations to make a dimensional jump, and it is impossible to do it just because of this matter. Run over and take a walk." Qin Mo said again.

Anruida thought so too, but he still came to ask: "The officer himself thought it was impossible, but he still hoped to get a rejection from me or you."

"Then you didn't reject him, and you brought this problem to me." Qin Mo shook his head helplessly, "I really have no choice."

"How about holographic projection?" Guilliman suggested.

Anreda looked at the Primarch in surprise. He did not expect the Primarch of the Empire to participate in this topic.

"Projection already exists, but there is a gap between projection and reality that cannot be filled." It's not like Qin Mo has never thought about projection.

The three of them fell silent.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Mo said to Anruida: "Please tell that naval officer that I thank him for his contribution to the Tailong Navy. I also feel sorry for him, his wife and his children, but I You can’t order a huge fleet of 40,000 warships to satisfy one person’s request and have hundreds of thousands of naval officers plan a special return route.”

"Nor can I order a large team of scientific researchers and psykers to order a soul-binding device and develop various materials or materials that can completely ensure that this child can be safely transferred hundreds of light years away to a military starport. Psychic technology.”

"but……"

Speaking of this, Qin Mo paused.

"But when the fleet triumphs, I will personally go to the world where the child is, and I will distort the space outside the life-support device. He will find that he is in the starport after waking up, and he will see the scene as if it were really docked. A huge fleet on the starport."

"It's not like a projection, but a one-to-one experience like reality."

Anreda was stunned for a moment: "You want to go to that world in person? Then why did you show up at the triumphal ceremony?"

"I can finish this thing in the time it takes me to change my clothes." Qin Mo said, "I don't have to get on the ship and run all the way there to finish the work and then run back on the ship. If this thing doesn't require too much manpower and material resources, , all it takes is for me to go there myself, and I’m happy to do it.”

"Yes!" Anruida saluted and immediately turned around and left to deliver the good news.

Guilliman watched Anreda leave and said to Qin Mo with a smile: "But you have to swim through the void and then swim back."

"It's not like...even if I really have to go toe-to-toe in the void, I will go." Qin Mo shook his head, "His parents are one of the countless navy or army personnel who can do anything as long as I give an order."

Guilliman stared at Qin Mo.

"While we are not too busy, let's go see Creed." Qin Mo stood up and said to Guilliman, "When the Eye of Terror is completely closed, I will go see him again and see this Cadia. What kind of expression will the Lord of the High Castle have when the Eye of Terror is closed?"

"He is injured." Guilliman did not get up. "During the Titan War, he and his Lord's Chosen Group were hit by a volcano cannon. When I went to visit him after hearing the news, he had just been Send the Eye of Terror to rest."

"Oh, then after everything is over, I will take some time to go to Cardia to find him in person." Qin Mo sat back down.

"No." Guilliman shook his head. "We will never see him again."

Qin Mo was stunned: "He's not dead. As you said, he went back to recuperate."

Guilliman looked at Qin Mo: "For people like us, when he entered the real universe where the time flow is normal before those children of fear, we are destined to never see him again."
