Chapter 528: Atavism
Qin Xia stood on the command deck, as silent as the think tanks behind him, with the waves in his heart failing to calm down for a long time.

"At least the Webway Project was successful."

Qin Xia thought.

But from all the signs ten thousand years later, it seems that even if the Webway project was successful, the Emperor still failed to eradicate human religious beliefs.

He is still worshipped as a god.

Considering the reasons why the Emperor destroyed the Perfect City previously, he must be worshipped while sitting on the Golden Throne.

But how?
The future Kamath said that Nuceria and Ultramar formed the Ultramar Sector, and that Guilliman and Angron were both loyalists, and these two not only had their own empires, but also their own powerful legions.

During the Horus Heresy, the loyalist Primarchs had high hopes for the Ultramarines.

Vulkan even said to his betrayed brother: Guilliman will send the Ultramarines to blow you up one by one.

However, the Ultramarines were delayed by the Warp Storm and were unable to reach Terra.

But if the Webway plan succeeds, how could the Ultramarines be delayed?

How could Horus have entered the Sol System and challenged the Emperor without Perturabo's rebellion, forcing the Emperor to sit on the Golden Throne?
And there is the matter of faith in the God-Emperor. If the Primarch had not left and could have always corrected and guided the Empire, then how could the Empire have sought refuge in religion in ignorance and fear after the end of the era of the Emperor and the Primarch?
"The Emperor must have an inseparable and complicated connection with the Golden Throne." Qin Xia could only temporarily use this answer, which was not really an answer, to resolve his confusion.

"My lord, Mortarion is a rebel." Chief Think Tank Varis suddenly spoke up, "Should we find a way to deal with them now?"

"There are still rebels in the Midnight Lords." The Great Library Director Tethys said, "But I don't understand why, now that we have purged the Midnight Lords..."

The two men began to speak of the Great Rebellion.

When Miraikamas said those words about the future just now, they were undoubtedly extremely shocked.

But the future is the future. This is not some empty prophecy, but Kamas from the future came to the present under the influence of one of the three artifacts and told the story of the future.

Tethys, who was good at prediction, believed that this kind of causal future was likely to happen.

"That future is not necessarily the future that will happen." Qin Xia turned around and looked at the two think tanks. "I came from another future, a future that is completely different from what Kamas in the future said. Many things I did also changed the future that I originally saw."

"Someone once told me that the future is immutable, but now it seems that is not the case."

"So we may not be able to avoid Mortarion's rebellion."

"If we treat Mortarion as a rebel now and make some targeted plans to attack him, then perhaps it is our actions that will push Mortarion to the rebel side."

Having said that, Qin Xia signaled all the think tanks to go back.

He didn't need to order the think tanks to keep secrets, because confidentiality was already the most basic rule of the think tank forces.

The think tanks saluted with their chests raised and left the command deck.

Qin Xia looked at the captain and said, "We can't go back now. Remember the document from the society? Let's sail to Perditus mentioned in the document and take that thing away."

The captain first ordered the route to be adjusted to the investigated world Perditus recorded in the database, and then asked curiously: "Sir, should we take away the Tuchucha engine instead of destroying it?"

"One of the three artifacts, the Heart of Plague, has been destroyed, and the Ouroboros has been sealed by me on Caliban. The three artifacts can no longer be reassembled." Qin Xia explained, "The Tuchucha Engine is difficult to destroy and has great use. When the time comes, you can arrange for it and train some people to be responsible for operating it."

The order Qin Xia issued was rather general.

We haven’t even seen the Tuchucha engine yet, so how can we train a team suitable for operating it and where should we place it?
But Qin Xia would only give general orders when facing the captain, because this was a habit the captain had instilled in him.

"I will, sir." The captain turned and walked away, going to the database in the corner of the command deck to check the academy files previously stored in the database.

People from the Society for the Study of Human History have seen the Tuchucha Engine and described its general condition.

Although the authenticity of this information has yet to be verified, it can be used as a reference.

The captain planned to arrange top engineers to form a team to operate the Tuchucha engine, and also arrange an officer who he remembered was extremely good at communication and appeasement to lead this team of engineers.

Because the documents say that the Tuchucha Engine has self-awareness, which is equivalent to being a living thing.

Conventional engine control methods may not be effective for the Tuchucha engine.

While the captain was dealing with things, Qin Xia focused on guiding the subspace navigation.

He never sought any routes through the Warp, nor did he try to avoid those Warp disasters that seemed certain death to navigators, traps like storms or reefs.

The psychic vision sees the corresponding structure of the target in the subspace, then rushes straight forward, walks in a straight line to reach the destination, jumps out of the subspace and returns to the real universe. It's that simple.

The Lord of the White Knights issued orders regarding navigation, which required the officers of each ship to pay attention to the control of personnel to avoid uncontrollable chaos when the ships were passing through the dangerous areas of the subspace.

After sailing for a while, Qin Xia suddenly discovered a shining sphere in front of the fleet.

Qin Xia didn't want to care about it, but the thing was really conspicuous and seemed out of place among the many bizarre things in the subspace.

So he transferred the sphere into his hand and observed it. The fleet did not stop, and continued to pass through all difficulties and obstacles under the impetus of the psychic torrent.

Qin Xia explored the sphere he had just found. After sensing his psychic power, the sphere immediately fell to the ground and projected a holographic image.

It is Gusa in the holographic image.

Qin Xia watched silently.

In the video, Gusa explained his views to Super Xiao Qin, and clearly mentioned that he wanted Super Xiao Qin to help him find the Heart of Plague, and why he came to find the Heart of Plague.

After watching the entire video, Qin Xia realized that Gusa's ideas had evolved again.

From wanting to return home at the beginning, to wanting to bring order to his Blood Axe Clan, to eliminating the evil brother who was affecting the greenskin orc race, and now he wants to try to remove the degradation mechanism imposed on the greenskins by the Old Saints by fighting against chaos.

Qin Xia thought for a moment, then teleported Kang from somewhere on the White Knight to watch the holographic image again with him.

"Where did you find this?" Kang asked.

"I don't know why I found this thing in the subspace. But I guess my copy of consciousness wanted to convey a message to me, so it threw this thing into the subspace." Qin Xia said, "It doesn't matter. What do you think of Gusa's idea?"

"This may just be a conjecture." Kang replied, "My tribe has some understanding of the orcs. We know that they are indeed imposed with a degenerate insurance mechanism, but this mechanism is unlikely to be removed by fighting against chaos. There is even a high probability that there is no way to remove it."

"So you think Gusa won't eventually return to his roots by killing demons or servants of Chaos?"

"Yes."

The little man in the robe concluded without hesitation that Gusa would fail.

He seemed to feel that his decisive answer was not very convincing, so he added another sentence.

"He's not the only orc who thought of returning to his ancestral roots by fighting the enemies of the Old Ones. Tens of millions of years have passed since the end of the War in Heaven. Could it be that he's the only chosen beast in the orc race who could come up with such a bizarre idea?"

Qin Xia thought so too.

"When you were blowing up the Plague Heart, you heard the future Kamas say that you would fight alongside Gusa, so you hope it will become stronger?" Kang pointed out the fundamental reason why Qin Xia came to him to ask about things.

Without any hesitation, Qin Xia nodded immediately.

"It is already powerful enough." Kang squatted down and mentioned Guilliman. "Do you remember that Guilliman couldn't even fight back in front of Guza?"

Qin Xia nodded again.

……

The Librarian fleet leaps into the Warp.

When the strong light flashing at the Mandeville Point of the galaxy suddenly disappeared, another green light spread at the Mandeville Point.

A huge green-skinned ship and a large number of Hrud alien ships rushed out of the warp.

Gusa stood on the command deck and looked at everything in the galaxy through the porthole.

There was no trace of any warships in the galaxy, only the broken wreckage of a planet floating in the void.

"It seems we are a step too late." Super Xiao Qin entered the command deck, "The Heart of the Plague and the planet it is on have been blown to pieces, and it seems that no Chaos enemies have appeared."

Gusa was silent for a moment, then slowly turned around and looked at Super Xiao Qin: "What did you do just now?"

"I just teleported here from my battleship." Super Xiao Qin came to Gusa's side and also looked at the environment in the galaxy. "The Heart of Plague was destroyed just like that? I thought Chaos would at least send some demons or something to interfere."

Gusa was silent.

The greenskin naval officers present, as well as the warriors who had just been armed and were ready to lead the commandos into battle, could all sense the sense of loss in the Lord of Blood Axe.

Before entering the galaxy, the beasts originally thought that a great war would be waiting for them.

The Lord of Blood Axe will lead them to fight against the unspeakable dark enemy, and then be sublimated in this war... If it is true as the Lord of Blood Axe expected, the genetic restrictions imposed by the Ancients on modern greenskins can only be unlocked by fighting against the dark enemy, then they will be sublimated.

"The road ahead is long, there's no need to rush." ​​Gusa was immediately relieved and turned to look at the officer in charge of managing the ship's engine.

The greenskin officer saluted with his chest, started the warp engine, and led the entire fleet to jump into the warp again.

The battleship belonging to Super Xiao Qin in the fleet launched a sphere of shining light into the subspace.

Although Super Xiao Qin knew that he was one step behind his original body, there was no cause and effect, time, or order of events in the subspace. It was estimated that with his original body's psychic power, he would eventually be able to find the things he had thrown out.

He succeeded.
