Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 72: Dive Again
Pass through the curtain and go deep into the treacherous spiritual space.

Qin Xia conducted a second deep dive exploration into the subspace.

Just like last time, he was in a submarine.

The submarine quickly dissipated, but just like last time, when the spiritual energy absorbed by Qin Xia was used up and replenished, the submarine appeared again and continued to carry Qin Xia deep into the subspace.

Compared with the last time, Qin Xia made a careful observation of the subspace this time.

Strange little creatures that look like cubes with a tentacle on each face are circling and wriggling around the submarine. They do nothing but wriggle, which makes people wonder if they were created just to cause visual nausea.

And in those indescribable geological structures that were sometimes very far away and sometimes very close, there were even more subspace creatures.

"There are no good things among the creatures in the warp. Don't come into contact with them, let alone bring them into reality."

"One of my apprentices signed a contract with the so-called elves. As a result, before he died, he dragged dozens of souls into the warp with him and became a slave to the creatures of the warp."

The think tank's teachings rang in Qin Xia's ears as usual.

But Qin Xia has a different opinion on this matter.

His experience in the use of psychic energy is not as good as that of the White Scars' think tanks, but as a time traveler, he knows more about the Warp than the psykers in this universe who are timidly exploring the power of the Warp.

The Dark Gods, namely Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle and Slaanesh, are part of the Warp but not all of it.

In addition to the dark gods and their servants, there are also Chaos Demons among the creatures of the Warp, and there are various other creatures beyond that.

In this spiritual alien space composed of extreme emotions and mental forces, nothing is impossible and nothing is certain.

There is no good or bad in the subspace creatures. They are just subspace entities composed of extreme emotions and abstract concepts. They are influenced and controlled by the emotions or concepts involved. Their behavior, thoughts, and instincts will all follow the influence of the many emotions and concepts that constitute their entities.

They have no self, no good or evil.

All entities here are essentially slaves to the Warp.

"The principle of subspace teleportation technology is to allow a person to temporarily travel through the subspace where there are no space and distance restrictions, and then return to the real universe and appear where they want to be. This is not difficult, but I have to find something that can anchor the coordinates of the real universe in the subspace."

Qin Xia looked around and spoke to the submarine cabin where no one else was except him, as if making a wish.

If you want to accomplish something in the real universe, it is not enough to just have ideas, you also need practice and action.

But in the subspace, a spiritual alien space, the waves and changes that ideas can cause far exceed practice.

This is especially true for a soul that is powerful and close to psychic energy.

The submarine continued to sail in the subspace, and Qin Xia quietly waited for his ideas to cause waves in the subspace.

After sailing for a while, Qin Xia realized that the submarine was not moving at all, but the strange environment around it that was incomprehensible and indescribable was moving.

Eventually what looks like a road with eyes approaches the submarine.

There is a creature that looks like a road sign stuck in the road.

【Hello, traveler.】

The road sign creature has no mouth.

When Qin Xia wanted to understand what the other party was saying, the moment this thought came to his mind, a dialog box appeared in his sight.

[When there were soul creatures in the real universe who had the idea of ​​drawing paths and anchoring coordinates, I was born.]

[To be more specific, I am the projection of the idea of ​​drawing paths and anchoring coordinates in the subspace, and I am the spiritual entity created by this projection.]

Two sentences appeared on the dialog box.

"Can you help me find the way and coordinates to a certain place in the real universe?" Qin Xia asked, "Just like the subspace engine can find a stable route in the subspace."

【cannot. 】

The words of the sign creature appeared on the dialog box. [I can only help you mark the road, but I can't help you open up and find the road.]

【I am a marker.】

[You need to find a spiritual entity that can help you identify the direction. You can find it in a place where spiritual entities gather in the subspace. Then you can help him collect various items in exchange for his agreement to help you identify the path.]

"Can it be simpler and more direct?" Qin Xia frowned.

When his brain was thinking according to what the road sign creature said and had the idea of ​​searching, another subspace creature appeared.

It was a huge fleshy compass, covered in eyes.

No one knew where the compass came from, nor where it came from, but it appeared anyway.

【Hello, lost one.】

[I am the product of the strong desire of intelligent life in the real universe to identify the direction. Their thoughts shaped me in the subspace.]

【I can help you find the path you want to find. 】

Three lines of words appeared in the dialog box in Qin Xia's eyes.

"..." Qin Xia didn't know what to think for a moment.

The subspace is so weird, even weirder than dreams.

Qin Xia wasn't even sure whether the road sign creature in front of him was a real subspace spiritual entity, or whether he was trying to find the way in a non-intuitive and roundabout way and thus created this road sign creature.

"Can you help me find the way to the territory of the Nukeriya Mori family?" Qin Xia asked.

After saying this, Qin Xia wanted to explain further, such as telling the subspace creature in front of him what Nukeria is, what the Mori family is, and their approximate direction.

But the Nuceria are also a human species, and their souls and thoughts will also cause waves in the warp.

There is no information transmission process in the subspace like there is in the real universe.

【A temporary channel has been marked for you. 】

[Please note that this is a temporary channel. If you want a longer-distance and more stable channel, please look for a more powerful subspace creature. ]

[You're welcome. I am the spiritual entity projected into the subspace by the desire of the Trekkers. I am going to help other Trekkers now.]

Compass turned around and suddenly disappeared.

Qin Xia looked at the road sign.

The signpost creature moved and then remained anchored there forever, marking the temporary passage that the compass had just pointed out.

"How long can this passage last? I know there is no time in the subspace, but there is time in the real universe. How much time in the real universe can it last?" Qin Xia asked the road sign.

[It is temporary because the spiritual power thinks it is temporary, but this temporary may be eternal or just a moment to you.]

[It can’t be temporary, or it can be temporary. It is temporary, and it is not temporary. ]

Two lines of text appeared in the dialog box.

These two lines of riddle-like text made Qin Xia give up looking for the answer on the road sign.

“It’s possible that roads are temporary, but it’s unlikely that roads are temporary.”

Self-contradictory words and phrases like these can be applied to anything in this alien space constructed by the spirit.

In any case, Qin Xia achieved the purpose of this journey into the subspace, and he did not stay any longer. He returned to the real universe after absorbing the subspace psychic energy again.
