Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind

Chapter 141 Verification of coordinates

The process of collecting information from subspace requires carefulness while walking on thin ice, but summarizing and integrating existing information does not need to be so cumbersome. With Hui Feng's computing power, the analysis and calculation of multiple waveform spectrums quickly produced results.

"The sea of ​​souls is constantly changing every moment, setting off strange waves that never repeat, but the 'sound-absorbing cotton' that absorbs the shock waves is relatively stationary, which greatly reduces the amount of calculations required for me to locate it... …Huh? Huh——?”

Gray Wind was shocked, and the Gray Gu Mothership turned all the convenient sensors in the same direction.

It is a dead planet located next to the pyramid group. This description may not be accurate enough. It should be said that the pyramid group is running in the orbit of this planet. Two-thirds of the surface area of ​​the star is covered with a thick layer of carbonized crystals, which are the traces burned by the destructive flare that annihilated the insect swarm that year.

"Why are those coordinates here?"

Gray Feng once again checked that his calculation results were correct, and then he had to store and back up the coordinates that seemed unreliable:

The "thing" that swallowed up the shock wave echo in a specific direction in the subspace like sound-absorbing cotton was inside the core of this carbonized crystalline planet.

Gray Wind chose to share the calculation results with Koroniai's biological mental network as soon as possible, but it waited impatiently and did not receive an immediate response, because it was also at this time that the attacking insect swarm also encountered a strange thing.

The swarming Devouring Bees destroyed the last space fortress of the alien race called "Sloth". After the second ring of defense also collapsed, it was commanded by the Thousand Sons Legion and composed of multiple Tzeentch warbands. The completed Chaos Fleet was displayed in front of Koroniai.

Having learned from the past that the First War Group was killed by Chaos Sorcery, and the Second War Group also suffered heavy losses after a long period of fighting and has yet to recover, Koroniai did not choose to rush in rashly and instead slow down the offensive. Observe While the enemy is moving, they are also waiting for the reinforcements of the Third War Group, which is already arriving.

The strange thing is that even in this situation, the Chaos fleet that was killed by the insect swarm did not organize an effective resistance.

"The spiritual defense network of the Soul-seeking Bone Spider was severely damaged in the previous battle, and the Zerg biological assault group has also been slowing down. This is an excellent opportunity to intercept. At this time, launch a long-range attack, whether it is plasma or light spear , even the physical ammunition of the macro cannon can have a high hit rate."

Russell changed his hand to support his chin and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Conventional weapons are like this, not to mention that there are a large number of subspace wave cannons on the battleships of the Thousand Sons Legion and are blessed by the Eye of Mystery. They only need one wave to gather Fire can cause considerable damage to you without any risk to you."

Koroniai nodded, it also felt strange.

At this moment, the warband ships outside the ring casually launched some low-cost energy weapons for symbolic interception, just to show that they were worthy of the salary given by Tzeentch. The Thousand Sons battleship didn't even move at all.

If it weren't for the insect swarm's biological senses that could clearly sense the ominous malice emanating from a large number of Chaos warships, Koroniai would have doubted whether he was fighting an imaginary fleet.

"Let's start the assault directly after the Third War Group has completed its assembly."

Russell said calmly: "The opponent has the Demon Ascension Primarch sitting there. The wizards and scarlet warriors of the Thousand Sons Legion are also second to none in the individual combat power of the Astartes. If you choose to attack head-on, the losses will be huge. You have to endure it." one time."

Koroniai did not hesitate at all: "Now the offensive is approaching the pupil of the Eye of Mystery, and the debts that were previously eliminated are also being resurrected. I am already prepared for the annihilation of the entire army."

Russell looked up and smiled at it: "That's good."

As the Second and Third War Clusters completed their rendezvous, he raised his eyes to look at the mysterious eye in the center of the galaxy. Vaguely, Russell seemed to see a blue slime with bird feathers squirming. Laughing.

The trap of the Chaos fleet that failed to resist in the center of the ring was too obvious, and it was so obvious that it insulted people's IQ.

Russell had no way of telling what was waiting for him in the center of the ring defense formation... it was possible that there really was nothing. Tzeentch was playing tricks on others. He could really do such a thing. But he had to be wary of the strange phenomena in front of him. Even Russell cannot easily see through the subspace confusion coming from the Lord of Changes. Whether or not there are any traps in it is unknown.

"Perhaps this place is really just a well-camouflaged bait, using the appearance of the Ascension Demon Primarch to attract my attention to cover up its true purpose..."

"Or maybe there is something crucial hidden inside the Eumenides. Tzeentch sent Magnus and the Thousand Sons here just to seize that thing, and deliberately put up an empty city strategy to I misjudged the importance of the Eumenides..."

"Or perhaps, the opening of the Mysterious Eye itself is a tool to divert attention, and Tzeentch would not hesitate to personally create the effect of the show... This is really something he can do."

I can't think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the more I get a headache. I really want to give Him two slaps...

Trying to guess Tzeentch's true intentions alone would be a fool's errand that would make Ogryn laugh at him.

After having a headache for a while, Russell gave up thinking. To deal with a deceitful person like Tzeentch, the most direct solution was to just hack away at him and transform into Khorne.

"Just be reckless..."

In Russell's tired lament, the second and third war groups that had completed their assembly launched another round of attacks on the Chaos fleet parked in front of the Eye of Mystery.

The main force in the third war group is a large biological unit called the "giant beetle".

The number of Giant Silkworm Biological Ships is far less than that of the Assassin Soul Devouring Venomous Bee and the Versatile Mage Soul Seeking Bone Spider, and the biomass consumed to produce one Giant Silkworm individual is also much more.

Compared with the high manufacturing cost is a stronger spirit bone skeleton, a stronger chitin carapace, a larger size, and a more ferocious destructive power.

Each giant beetle adult has a guaranteed body length of more than 18 kilometers, and can continue to grow after devouring enough biomass. The giant beetle has a huge bone gun barrel that accounts for almost 1/3 of its entire body. In other words, the body of the giant beetle biological ship is built around this bone cannon barrel as its main axis.

The super-standard axis cannon brings super-standard strike capabilities. With the assistance of frontline reconnaissance units, the huge biological main cannon produced at any cost can emit a torrent of energy that can span astronomical distances at the level of the star system, devastating the enemy. beyond visual range attack.

This is why the Second War Group, which took the first step, is still moving forward to bring the enemy into its strike range, but the giant beetles of the Third War Group are able to directly attack the Chaos Fleet from the rear of the attacking fleet from a long distance away. fire.

Each launch of the giant spirit bone axis cannon is equivalent to a large-scale spellcasting. The violent spiritual energy wrapped in a large amount of biological current is condensed as if it were substance, and is shot out from the huge mouths of giant earthworms that open like an abyss. In the blink of an eye, Then he crossed the flare and arrived in front of the Eye of Mystery.

The Chaos Fleet did not dodge at all.

"Is it really completely motionless? The frontal bombardment of the giant spiritual bone shaft cannon can easily destroy small and medium-sized battleships of the same size as mine. If you choose to attack forcefully, the end will be very tragic..."

Koroniai was even more confused. The attack of the giant ship of the Centipede broke through the curtain. It seemed that it had seen the steel collapse and disintegrate in the violent explosion. The soul was annihilated before the flesh and blood. The Thousand Sons Legion and many Tzeentch warbands gathered together to form The fleet will suffer heavy losses in the next moment.

Whenever this happens, if there is no accident, there will be an accident.

Then the accident happened without any surprise.

In Russell's numb eyes, the nearly substantial long-range strike formed by the convergence of bioelectricity and spiritual energy dragged a gorgeous long tail, crossing the galaxy like a meteor shower and falling in front of the Chaos Fleet.

Then the meteor shower dissipated.

"Did you see what was going on?" Russell asked.

Koroniai shook his head: "No, Master, the electric energy strike fired by the Giant Silk Bone Axis Cannon quickly disappeared when it advanced to about 3,000 kilometers away from the Chaos Fleet."

"Disappeared?"

"Yes, it disappeared." Koroniai, who had an insect swarm unit as an extension of his senses, was able to observe the strange phenomenon that had just occurred more immersively than Russell:

"During the dissipation process of the electric energy strike, there was no phenomenon of the direction of the strike being deflected by means such as energy deflection field, nor was the damage diverted by principles such as void shields. As for the signs of energy being forcibly absorbed by large capacitor defense, it is even more It doesn’t exist at all.”

After hearing this, Russell probably understood what this was about.

"The dissipation of the attack is extremely natural. If I had to describe it, it would be 'it exhausted its energy during the long-distance flight and dissipated on its own.'" Koroniai said in the end.

Russell thoughtfully said: "The ultimate strike distance of the giant beetle biological gunboat can theoretically span the entire galaxy. For its attack to exhaust its energy and dissipate naturally, you can imagine how long it would take."

3000 kilometers is obviously not enough.

"Is it some kind of subspace spell that distorts physical distance? No, the attack of the Giant Silk Bone Ax Cannon is not only regular damage, but also contains spiritual properties that can tear the curtain of reality and directly strike the subspace. Generally, Techniques that distort reality should be ineffective against axis cannons..."

Could it be that Tzeentch used some unconventional witchcraft?

Fortunately, such doubts did not bother Russell for a long time. When the Soul Devouring Bees advanced to a distance of about 3,000 kilometers from the Chaos Fleet, what happened to the psychic plasma shot by the axis cannon also happened to these. On small and medium-sized biological ships.

This time, Koroniai clearly felt it: "It's aging. I felt that the Soul Devouring Venomous Bee was aging rapidly as it rushed forward. The protein structure of the neurotoxin rapidly aged and collapsed, and every cell that made up the ship's body... They end their lifespan prematurely and are not recycled because the phage responsible for recycling them also dies of old age."

"The closer the physical distance to the Chaos Fleet, the faster the aging, or the speed of time passing..."

"It is the Entropy Barrier. A large barrier envelops the Thousand Sons Legion and the surrounding Chaos Fleet. After any object enters the barrier, its own entropy will increase sharply until it completely turns into disordered energy and dissipates. In this world." Russell quickly figured out what it was.

There is indeed an "entropic weapon" in this universe. A single hit can cause the time of the target to pass rapidly for tens of thousands of years. However, he did not expect that the scene displayed in front of him would be even more exaggerated.

Koroniai secretly glanced at the mysterious eye in the distance with a little fear, and whispered: "What a foul..."

"What a generous gesture."

After knowing what tactics Tzeentch had arranged here, Russell became happy instead. He was not afraid of facing steep challenges. No matter how difficult the hurdle was, he had the confidence to challenge it and put in efforts to try to break through.

What is really despairing is that when a disaster is approaching, you still don’t know what the disaster is about. You want to work hard, but you don’t even have a direction in which to work. The most disturbing feeling is the feeling of being powerless.

At least now, he has a direction.

At the same time, in the dark and deep No Man's Sky, the preachers in the expedition fleet of the Order of Truth who had successfully evacuated the Flare Galaxy and were rushing back to Falla were busy in full swing.

Because not long ago, they just got the data backup returned from the gray goo mothership.

Since he was going to reverse engineer a large number of Necrons' technological creations, Gray Wind judged that these data would be of some help in the subsequent research, so he packed a data package and shared it with them.

Everyone attached great importance to the information sent back by the Gray Gu mothership. The researchers quickly began to disassemble and interpret the data packets. Among the data that Gray Wind had sorted and packaged, there was also the soul echo spectrum that it had mapped not long ago.

Gray Wind did not package the coordinates he calculated to the preachers, that was what he reported to the marshal. But I can't help but that this group of people, driven by Russell's ideas, have very strong subjective initiative.

Based on the compiled spectrum, they calculated the same coordinates as Hui Feng's calculation result.

Afterwards, a subtle silence fell into the Sailfish research ship.

"Are the calculation results confirmed correct?"

"The calculation has been verified 11 times and there is absolutely no error." A middle-aged man with sparse hair on his head said: "That coordinate is indeed inside the star core of the crystalline planet."

After the words fell, several people present seemed to be lost in thinking about something.

For a long time, Listia tried to break everyone's contemplation: "You mean, have our previous calculation results of the orbital deviation of the crystalline planet been confirmed?"

The middle-aged preacher nodded happily and said: According to our previous calculations, the carbonized crystalline planet that bound the pyramid group in a close orbit should originally be traveling further inside the galaxy. It was almost certainly 'pushed' outward to its current position by the big explosion that caused the destruction flare. "

"If we turn back time before the star explodes, the original position of this carbonized crystalline planet will completely coincide with the Necron pyramid group."

Obviously, the subspace anomalies detected by the Gray Goo Mothership are most likely related to the Necron.

Listia thought for a while and then tried to speak: "My department happened to be responsible for the research on the Eldar webway technology recently, so the subspace anomaly here seems to me to be quite familiar - maybe Let’s make this bold assumption: at the original location of the pyramid group, in the core of the crystalline planet, there is a portal to the webway.”
