Warhammer: In the Name of Nirvana

"Everything in the Thousand Sons Legion was created by the great Magnus. From our organization, our purpose, our tactics, and even our souls, everything is in accordance with the instructions of our Gene Father. The most perfect work born of will and knowledge.”

"He saved the Legion and reshaped it."

Ahriman walked at the front, and Morgan could see the continuous lights drawing a long snow-white curve on his dark head. There was undisguised joy in the voice of Captain Thousand Sons, which was for himself. Mortal friends can receive the sincere blessing of great gifts.

"One, three, six, ten, you can see these numbers anywhere in the legion, because numbers are the most convenient carrier that can carry the wisdom of human sages and are the most essential ideological products in human civilization."

"Three Orders, three Orders; six Schools, ten Societies; one soothsayer, our great Gene-Father Magnus; one Holy One, our most exalted Emperor Emperor, all these form the Thousand Sons Army."

(The Thousand Sons Legion originally had six schools and ten societies, but the sixth school [Sky Eagle] was exiled at the end of the Great Crusade for secretly summoning demons; another society was in the Kamenka Triad Battle during the Great Crusade. They were completely lost and their organization was wiped out, so at the time of the Universal Burning, the Thousand Sons only had five schools and nine societies.)

"Three religious orders: the Order of the Jackal, which remembers death and brews new blood; the Order of the Blind, which sees six directions and listens to all directions; and the Order of Destruction, which explores mysteries and makes suggestions. They are responsible for training, intelligence and staff. Maybe you will You will interact with them, so don’t be too nervous, just handle it with a normal working attitude.”

"Next are the three cloisters: the thunderous Amidala, the indestructible Scarab, and the unparalleled swordsman Kenitai. They are special forces on the battlefield. The first one is responsible for quick strikes, and the second one is responsible for quick strikes. One is a tactical fearless armored force, and the third is a spiritually connected swordsman group. These characters are all elites, and they are also true performers. Their tempers may not be very good, which needs to be noted. "

As he spoke, Ahriman turned his head, and his eyes gradually drifted to the staff in Morgan's hand. It was a creation made of two black gems entwined together. There was a floating one between the long fangs of the vipers roaring at each other. The pearl blooming with blue and purple light serves as the core of the magic weapon.

"It's a good spell-casting item, but unfortunately it's not enough...I mean, I remember you know some sword skills?"

[I only know a few mortal skills. I learned them in the royal court in the secular world. 】

Morgan shook his staff, and a curved blade emerged from one side.

"That's good. Although you and I are both powerful psykers, the most basic martial arts still need to be practiced. You can come to me, or Hathor. Although those guys from the Bright Feather School are arrogant, they can still do well. Speaking of which, as for Kenitai... they are a little too arrogant."

The company commander of the Thousand Sons was talking complicatedly like a teacher who had just taken up his duties. He carefully broke down everything about the Thousand Sons Legion, mixed with the most subtle and detailed language in his mouth, and entered it bit by bit. Into Morgan's ears, the figures of Astartes and the mortal female officials appeared on the red walls of the corridor one after another, and their exchanges also accompanied them all the way.

Until they finally passed through the bright corridors, which were paved with crimson and brilliant gold, dotted with scarabs and endless spirals, and reached the holy place of Magnus: the core of the light among the thousands of feet.

——————

The 28th Expeditionary Fleet is the pride of the Imperial Navy, and it is also the mobile kingdom of Prospero in the void, and Magnus’s ship [Ten Thousand Miles of Light] is naturally the most graceful queen and the most dazzling in the kingdom. Pearl.

Unlike any of her sisters, at the request of Lord Prospero, this Queen of Glory class belonging to the Thousand Sons Legion was built into a slender and beautiful dignified beauty. , there is neither the hustle and bustle of war and death, nor the glitz and luxury of the Emperor's Children's flagship [Emperor's Pride]. Magnus's ship is just like himself, never known for its violent power. The Thousand Sons used the accumulation of countless books to make it exude the light of wisdom, bathed in Magnus's sacred will.

Under the leadership of Ahriman, Morgan finally entered the most sacred part of the kingdom of the Thousand Sons. Even most of the Astartes who inherited the blood of Magnus did not have this honor.

"See it, this is the will of Magnus, this is the silent cry of the laws of physics, this is the living embodiment of Tizka in the void, this is...the heaven of meditation."

There was undoubted fanaticism in Ahriman's voice. Perhaps in ordinary times, he was known for his calmness, gentleness and occasionally maddening arrogance, but Morgan knew very well that this rising Thousand Sons Legion How much Xinxing admired his genetic father.

He is always imitating Magnus, which is an unintentional imitation, just like Magnus is always imitating the Emperor unintentionally. In essence, it is just the fantasy of two children from their own perspective. .

But despite these unnecessary elements, the Holy Land of Magnus itself is enough to amaze anyone, even an Astartes.

Morgan saw that she was in an almost illusory pyramid. This scene was obviously a perfect replica of the magnificent great pyramids in Tizca, the capital of Prospero. This space was filled with geometric principles and It changes its appearance at incredible angles. Sometimes, it seems to be completely transparent. Morgan can even see unsuspecting guards passing by in formation from the outside of the space. But more often than not, this small world is completely transparent. The sky is constantly changing, sometimes it is a forest, sometimes it is a park, and more often it is a huge library, filled with cool breeze, warm lights and the scent of fine wood accumulated in the books.

Ahriman started to move, and he stepped onto the long path in the center of the space with ease. This slender path contained a slow slope, allowing Magnus at the end to stand in front of his throne, in the first place. Time to see every visitor.

On both sides of the road, there is the only actual decoration in this space: it is a mosaic-style spiral floor. All materials are derived from black and white crystal fragments collected from Prospero's underground cave. , allowing the Primarch to feel a touch of home in the most distant corner of the galaxy.

When they got closer to Magnus's throne, these black and white spirals took on a new role. Through his psychic perspective, Morgan could see characters floating in the center of those spirals. What the characters write are the names of some of the Thousand Sons: they are either lecturers of the Templar from various societies, or powerful figures in the Order and Priory. It is those who hold important positions and are closely related to the Primarch. Together with Gnus, they command the backbone elite of the legion.

What’s even more interesting is that these spirals near the center are all moving, and some kind of force beyond the laws of physics is driving all of this. Morgan can see that the spiral marked with Ahriman’s name is moving slowly forward, and is gradually heading towards Those innermost circles.

"Father believes that nothing should be eternal, just like truth, so everyone's position will shift according to his latest rights, status and authority, except for the most central point, which is our eternal The correct Primarch itself."

[Everything is changing, do you think so? 】

"That's right, isn't it?"

Ahriman's chuckle blocked Morgan's question, because when the silver-haired lady blinked, she would find that she seemed to have no reason to point out all this further.

Let them be.

Morgan thought this way, and then she was taken to the center of the Great Pyramid. Unlike other places, the center of the room that symbolized Magnus's status was decorated with a different kind of floor:

That's a sun.

A sun that is extremely cold, but yet shines with endless rays of light.

——————

A silent smile appeared at the corner of the mouth surrounded by silver hair.

What was she talking about.

Two little guys who are blind to their own world.

——————

"You are late, Ahriman."

Several people were already standing there, and Morgan saw Atava: he greeted the mortal female officer cordially, as if he were treating a real friend.

And Hathor: his etiquette is in place, but there is not much sincere emotion. In fact, he voluntarily stands on the outermost edge of the small circle, and he seems to have no interest in even the pleasantries between Astartes.

Then there were several unfamiliar characters, and Atava introduced them enthusiastically: These were the Thousand Sons warriors who had explored Zharugin City together. Their spiritual worlds had been damaged by the invasion of Sitan, so Magnus took them with him, vowing to find a cure for everyone in the Warp.

But Ahriman is not like this: the captain of the Thousand Sons was given the qualification to explore the vast ocean with him because of his outstanding performance in the operation of Dawn Star. For any Thousand Sons warrior, this is an unprecedented achievement in the world. A great reward unmatched by glory.

"Have you been to the vast ocean, little one?"

When Atava spoke, he always liked to smile, which made him the diplomatic part of the Legion.

[I don’t think I’ve been there, but I had a brief glimpse. 】

"For beginners, that's really a bit dangerous."

Atava couldn't help laughing. He patted Morgan on the shoulder and began to describe a fertile sea full of knowledge and unknowns.

Whether it is the mysteries of time and space, the exploration of countless ruins, or even the search for traces of civilization that may exist in subspace... Of course, sometimes there will be some small dangers, but with a mature soul, In the face of ability, those are all psoriasis.

Morgan could see the most genuine and sincere light shining in Atava's eyes, and she saw the same thing in the eyes of everyone present.

"There are even creatures, wonderful creatures that live in the warp, who are intelligent and friendly."

【……biology? 】

Atava's latest words finally made Morgan unable to help but ask a question.

"Yes, biology, perhaps the Sky Eagle School is more authoritative in this regard, but they are not here, but it doesn't matter, Ahriman also has deep research."

As Atharva boasted, Morgan could see a twisted smile of pride and humility on Ahriman's face, as well as an unhappy snort from Hathor.

Ahriman then spoke.

"Guardian spirits, that's what we call them."

Morgan could hear the proud voice of the Thousand Sons Captain.

"We use some means to make those fragments of the original creator without consciousness in the subspace available to us, turning them into entities and possessing functions according to our wishes."

"The Legion is studying all this. If the research goes well, we can even allow each member of the Legion to have his own guardian elf. Believe me, it can really do a lot of things."

[It sounds dangerous. Going deep into the unknown ocean to find wisdom and civilization is like the opening of a painful adventure story. 】

"But there's always real treasure in adventure stories, isn't there?"

The Thousand Sons laughed.

"And it's not that dangerous."

Ahriman continued to explain, and then he mentioned Magnus, and his voice began to sound adoring.

"Our genetic father once explored the edge of subspace, where he conducted the greatest exploration and adventure and accomplished unimaginable feats. Today, we are just following the route he left, in the shallow water area. Just wandering around."

[The edge of subspace? It sounds really charming. 】

Her words seemed to have some kind of magic power, causing every Thousand Sons to discuss these taboo topics. Once the cage that restricted their own language was opened, scholars always spoke surprisingly a lot.

"Yes, the edge of the subspace, where our genetic father once went, to..."

——————

"To untie and reshape the threads that bind them, erase the destroyed future, and make each of my descendants the master of their own destiny again."

——————

With a thunderous noise, Magnus appeared.

The Primarch appeared almost out of thin air. He stood less than five meters away from the Ion descendants, smiling and listening to everyone's tributes.

As if recalling something, the original gene couldn't help but touch his empty right eye socket.

"Okay, everyone, no need to be polite. At this moment, we are all scholars seeking knowledge."

As he said that, the original gene had arrived at his own position. With a wave of his red arms, thousands of haloes emerged from all over the pyramid. They continued to expand, and under their curtains Then there was a dark starry sky.

"Get ready, my attendants."

The voice of the original body sounded from the depths of everyone's soul, while Morgan narrowed his eyes and recited the spell to make himself look no different from a mortal.

This was somewhat difficult, but fortunately Magnus' attention was not focused on her, and the Primarch was making his usual remarks.

"There are always people who criticize us, some of my brothers, even ignorant mortals who think our actions are stupid and reckless, not knowing that these words apply more to themselves."

"Now, relax, my children, and let me guide you into the Sea of ​​Souls."

"No need to be nervous, everyone, you can forget the troubles and rumors in the world here."

"After all, what we are doing is not depravity, but..."

"sublimation."

The so-called guardian spirits are demons.

When the original book arrived at Pu Burn, the Thousand Sons Legion already had a "Guardian Elf" on hand.

To be honest, I was confused when I first saw this, how can I play with such tricks~
