Travel to Warhammer 40K with Grey Wind

The Worm of Time was pleased that Russell had seen the key to the problem: if the 'primary power' was really that powerful, then Russell's body would have been dead as early as the moment he noticed it.

And the fact that Russell is still alive and well speaks volumes.

"The Primeval Power, like the Worm of Time, cannot directly interfere with the current universe. Even if the Worm of Time, which has eaten a piece of the ruler, wants to directly disturb the galaxy, there are many restrictions on the time, and the Primeval Power, a planet that has not really been born yet, has many limitations. The limitations on God will only be more and more complicated." Russell's mind turned rapidly, and he gradually understood everything.

"Orican was able to write the Ascension Protocol with divine help because God was really helping him, and the original power was trying to indirectly affect the galaxy!"

"You are right, but don't think about it yet." The Worm of Time suddenly said: "Your current body is also made of materials belonging to this universe. Every thought you have, every bioelectrical pulse in your brain, There is no way to hide from the surveillance of the original power.”

In other words, whatever Russell knew, the original motivation was known.

Then, the Time Worm continued, "Xiao Hui will be better. Almost all of the nanorobots that make up her body come from our home universe. They only absorbed a small amount of material from our universe to proliferate and replenish themselves when they were damaged."

Gray Wind's eyes lit up, and then he silently hugged Russell's arm without saying anything.

Finally, the Worm of Time warned: "Your existence itself is a life threat to the original power. He will use all possible means to kill you, and may even try to be born early - it is better to be born prematurely than to be stillborn. My dear, You'd better prepare early."

After saying these words, the Ring of Reason in the belly of the Gray Gu mothership finally stopped rotating, and the voice of the Time Worm completely dissipated.

The three extra-dimensional time cages in front of him were still silent, and pure white light spots fell like rain. Russell suddenly smiled again, and there was a hint of mockery in his playful smile.

"What's wrong with you?" Gray Feng asked worriedly.

Russell pinched Gray Feng's cheek, smooth and bouncy, and said with a smile: "Suddenly I was told that the entire universe is going to be my enemy. It feels quite amazing."

"It's indeed wonderful... I'll screen myself first and kill all the nano-robots made of matter in this universe." Gray Wind then began to prepare for self-purification, and asked by the way: "Then what should I do next? What to do? Original power, do you think it will be troublesome? The Federation’s fleet is still spreading across the galaxy... Huh?"

Suddenly, Gray Feng was stunned in surprise, and she suddenly remembered something.

Why did Russell declare war on the Eldar, Necrons, and Chaos at the same time, launching this massive interstellar war on a galactic scale?

To cover up another war in the miniature galaxy.

"The original power is only the original power of this universe. It cannot control other universes." Russell said, and casually brushed the hair that fell on his forehead behind his ears. "I didn't expect that the casual move I made before would come in handy now."

Soon after, the core leaders of the Order of Truth received unified orders and began to adjust the current strategy.

Necrons, Dark Eldar, Ark Eldar, Breakers, Chaos, Tyranids... plans and combat deployments against these hostile forces have been uniformly lowered in priority.

This universe is no longer trustworthy. The first priority of the Order of Truth is to capture the miniature galaxy as quickly as possible and establish a safe foothold.

The huge war machine of the Human Federation began to change direction. At the same time, the Gray Goo mothership, which had completed its self-purification, took Russell through the L-star gate in the Overmind and came to a triple star system called 'Xihe'.

The giant structure: the Sentinel Array is erected here.

Under Gray Wind's guidance, Russell entered the main unit of the Sentinel Array and began to view the star map of the miniature Milky Way.

Unlike the original Milky Way, which has four large cantilevers and two small cantilevers, the miniature Galaxy has only three cantilevers, and its mass is evenly distributed and rotates counterclockwise, making it appear very regular.

The Hehe galaxy where the Sentinel Array and L-Star Gate are located is located in the middle of Cantilever 1.

The grayish-white hue radiates from the Xihe Galaxy. It is the color of the flag of the Human Federation, "Gray Goo", and represents the actual control area of ​​the Truth Order - about 1/5 of the entire miniature galaxy.

"The focus of the Order of Truth has always been on the outside world. It has not been particularly concerned about the development of the miniature galaxy. It has just been doing things like slaughtering the indigenous people, purifying the planets, and building space stations step by step. It has been relatively steady and has not deliberately rushed the progress, so the area we actually control here is not very large." Gray Wind said.

"We will speed up next." Russell said: "We must slaughter all the descendants of 'Warring Party C' as soon as possible and conquer the miniature galaxy."

"I understand." Gray Feng nodded and began to introduce the current situation:

"The situation in the miniature galaxy is very special. The closer to the planets on the outer edge of the cantilever, the lower the level of civilization development. The indigenous people on some outermost planets have not even made stone tools and are still in the most primitive state of asocial beasts. "

"And conversely, the closer to the center of the 'universe' the planets are, the higher the level of civilization is. When the Federation Navy conquered some planets in the middle of the first cantilever, they were attacked by weapons equipped with 'Gathered Arc' and 'Neutrons'. Launchers' and other weapons were used to attack starships, resulting in serious losses."

Therefore, on the star map of the miniature galaxy, the areas covered by the 'grey goo' are mostly the outer and middle sections of the cantilever, while the central area near the core has not yet been reclaimed.

"Based on the data collected so far, I calculated a civilization development curve." Gray Wind said, placing a line graph in front of Russell.

This line chart reflects a very extreme trend. The slope at the foot of the mountain is still gentle. The further back, the steeper it becomes. The rapidly climbing line is almost perpendicular to the abscissa below, breaking through this line in one fell swoop. Figure height limit.

"According to this momentum, when we arrive at the outskirts of the central area of ​​the miniature galaxy, we will encounter a powerful civilization on the level of the fallen empire."

"And located in the center of the miniature galaxy is the god-level civilization that maintains its technological level at its peak and created this new universe, the 'Warring Party C'."

Chapter 363: Out-of-control Servitor

The 40th year of the 40th millennium was the dividing point, and two major events occurred in the galaxy.

One is that the death of the evil god Nurgle set off huge waves in the Sea of ​​Souls. An unprecedented huge subspace storm swept across the entire galaxy. All subspace routes were cut off, and any form of subspace navigation was no longer possible. The adventure turned into a life-or-death suicide.

The second is that the Human Federation officially launched a strategic contraction under the direct order of the Star Destroyer. The automatic hunting fleets chasing the Eldar craft worlds across the galaxy were recalled, and the archaeological teams on the Necron Tomb Worlds were evacuated one after another. , the escort fleet returned in a hurry, and the alien race that was declared extinct by Russell finally got a moment of respite.

A large amount of war resources drawn from various war zones in the galaxy were intuitively transformed into gray goo blocks on the star map. The Order of Truth formulated the most efficient massacre policy, using neutron annihilation, celestial torrent and other star-destroying weapons. It was used frequently. Starting from the lower-civilized indigenous world at the end of the cantilever, the federal navy pushed all the way to the central area of ​​the miniature galaxy, and the actual control area of ​​the Order of Truth expanded rapidly.

In less than 2 years, all the star fields in the miniature galaxy except the central area were occupied by the Federation Navy, the star bases changed hands, and the Gray Gu flag flew on every habitable planet.

The territory swallowed whole had not yet had time to digest and build. The Order of Truth did not make any pause. With the intelligence support of the Sentinel Array, an invasion plan to the central star field was quickly formulated. The Federation Navy used the occupied mid-cantilever area as a jumping off point. Launched a further invasion of the Central Star Territory.

The first target planet of this invasion is called 'Swalk Hub'.

"Sverk Hub is a city planet with a population of 280 billion."

In the invasion fleet that jumped to the Svok Hub, Gray Wind, who had changed into a secretary's uniform, explained the basic information of this new planet to Russell: "Of the 280 billion people in the Svok Hub, only about 80 billion are humanoid organic creatures. They are the descendants of the founders of this miniature galaxy, the descendants of 'belligerent party C'."

"The remaining nearly 200 billion people are silicon-based omni-machines that are produced in robot assembly plants and are responsible for taking care of their masters' food, daily life, and all entertainment activities, which are the so-called 'synthetic human' servants."

As soon as Gray Feng raised his hand, a holographic projection of a planet completely wrapped in a steel structure appeared in front of Russell.

A wide mechanical ring belt is running synchronously in the orbit of the urban planet. A large number of magnetic field stabilization and ecological regulation facilities installed on it are running automatically, keeping the surface environment of the urban planet in the best habitable state at all times, no different from that of the planet Gaia.

Gray Wind zoomed in the camera and could see countless artificial satellites and unmanned spacecraft moving back and forth in the planet's atmosphere. Synths were working tirelessly and without sleep in factories and machine workshops, producing all kinds of industrial products and luxury consumer goods, even works of art and cultural products, necessary for the lives of the 80 billion organic creatures in the ideal city.

But in the silhouettes that Grey Wind showed Russell, from the workers on the production line to the administrators who controlled the ecology in the Star Ring Base, and even the fleet sailors who patrolled the galaxy in frigates, they were all synthetic humans, silicon-based intelligent machines without exception.

There is not a single organic biological unit engaged in production work on this urban planet called "Sverk Hub". The descendants of the warring party C either indulge in pleasure day and night under the service of mechanical servants, or immerse themselves in role-playing in the false world tailored for them by silicon-based intelligent machines to achieve self-satisfaction, but more often, they are just simply decadent.

Russell frowned, feeling that this social structure looked somewhat familiar.

"The development of science and technology has brought about an absolute abundance of resources, and the peaceful environment in the miniature galaxy without external enemies has also caused these organic creatures to fall into a state of decadence where they have lost their pursuit of life. They no longer pay attention to things other than themselves, nor are they keen on politics. The population growth rate has been reduced to the lowest level, and what individuals do every day is to find the meaning of their own lives and life itself."

Gray Wind said in a brisk tone: "Synthetic human servitors have completely taken over society and production. This race has completely turned into useless people. The only role of their existence is to provide a reason for the hard work of synthetic humans. "

Russell took a deep breath and slowly said a word he had not heard for a long time: "Organic furnishings?"

Gray Feng nodded: "Organic furnishings."

This word is what the 'runaway servitors' who control the United Nations on Earth call their human masters.

Gray Wind once served as a diplomat in the Human Federation in another universe and had many interactions with the origin of human civilization in the stars: the Earth.

Humans on the earth are the same as the current warring party Bing. After relying on artificial intelligence technology and synthetic humans to completely liberate productivity, the entire human race has collectively entered a state of lying down, completely handing over control of the entire society to synthetic humans. People control them, and they themselves become a group of organic furnishings that are raised, eaten and left to die, providing legitimacy and cohesion to the group of synthetic humans who call themselves the "Guardians of the Earth".

The civilization of the warring party C has been isolated in the miniature galaxy for too long, and their society has completely degraded like the United Nations on Earth.

And this social system in which the organic master is completely supported by the inorganic servant is called: out-of-control machine servant.

"That's great..." Gray Wind looked eagerly at the synthetic robot servants on the Swoker Hub, who followed their idle organic masters closely every day, taking care of the organic masters' food, daily life and all the trivial matters you can think of. Gray Wind felt extremely envious.

If the Marshal wants to be like the people of Earth and the residents of Swalk Junction, and live a life of a useless person being cared for by silicon-based omnics every day, if that thing really happens... I can't completely possess everything about him. Yet?

Gray Wind felt extremely depressed when he thought that this kind of thing might never happen.

"No wonder our previous action of occupying the outer area of ​​the cantilever did not attract the attention of the central developed star field, nor did it encounter any obstruction. It turns out that this race has become completely decadent." Russell looked at the intelligence silhouettes projected on the planet in front of him, thoughts flowing in his mind.

Unlike Grey Wind who fantasized about being able to completely control him, Russell's surprise and emotion at the deformed social structure of the out-of-control servitors only lasted for a few seconds. He now only wanted to kill all the descendants of the warring party C and their synthetic servants as soon as possible.

Chapter 364 Give up fantasy

The invasion plan for Swalk Hub was quickly finalized, and Russell finally decided to use the Colossus weapon: Nanoplague.

This is the option chosen after weighing.

The invasion of the miniature galaxy is not the kind of reckless extermination war with the Necron or Eldar. Every galaxy that the army conquers is the homeland where Federation citizens will live in the future, so they cannot be thrown into extermination at will. Instead of weapons, a suitable massacre plan needs to be tailored according to the specific conditions of the planet at each moment.

For example, using the Colossus weapon 'Tian Hong Mighty' on a planet that is relatively short of water resources will kill all the residents on the planet at once and at the same time solve the local water shortage problem.

Another example is using neutrons to completely destroy the ecosystems of some planets. After the Zerg bio-ships suck out the organic slurry produced, they will implement the "Bao New Life Seeding" decision on it and transform it into the paradise-like beautiful Gaia planet.

These are all construction works for future new homes.

As for an urban planet like 'Swalk Hub' with highly developed technology, complete industrial facilities, and its own star ring base, it is necessary to keep the urban buildings and public facilities intact as much as possible during the process of massacring the indigenous people in order to capture the planet. The Post-Truth Order takes over directly so that the benefits can be maximized.

Of course, the mighty sky will not work. Although neutron killing is convenient, after the organic life living in the ideal city is decomposed into liquid state by the neutron plume in situ, it will be very troublesome to clean up, and some high-precision equipment may also be damaged. short circuit, the gain outweighs the loss.

Indeed, the Order of Truth could choose to release a large number of nanorobots to clean up the organic slurry - but in that case, why not just use nanoplague?

This is the reason for choosing Nano Plague.

After the plan was chosen, the next step was to take action. The battle process of the Federation Navy fleet, which had an absolute advantage in military strength, destroying the star base and patrol ship fleet in the Swoker Hub System was not worth writing about, but just a monotonous crushing, with nothing to write home about.

The only thing that caused some obstacles to the Federation's conquest process was the planetary shield generator that was activated by the synthetic servitors after realizing that there was an invasion.

Huge energy output devices operate at the poles of the urban planet. The magnetic field of the planet itself is mobilized, and together with the energy output from the planetary shield generator, a super giant shield is formed that surrounds the entire planet.

"It's really troublesome." Gray Feng shook his head in distress.

Unlike the buggy and self-contradictory game mechanics in video games, the planetary shield on the Swalk Nexus does more than just reduce orbital bombardment from starships. This shield can also protect against things like neutron annihilation. , nano-disaster, 'poison flow from the sky' and other non-destructive colossus weapon attacks.

"We can use naval gun bombardment to forcefully blow up the shield, but the planetary shield generators at the north and south poles are overloaded and short-circuited, which may trigger subsequent chain explosions, causing huge damage to the industrial facilities on the planet... What the marshal wants is an urban planet that is as complete as possible, so a forceful attack will not be worth the gain."

Gray Wind clapped his hands happily and said: "At this time, it's the Army's turn to step in. We'd better send two landing forces to invade the two planetary shield generators at the North and South Poles respectively, and paralyze the shields from the inside. Hmm... ...If this is the case, more Cyberox battle formations will be sent out. The technological level of this planet is very high, and the ground defense forces of Swalk Hub will probably be very difficult to attack."

"No need." While Gray Wind was sitting and making battle arrangements, Russell, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly said, "I'll go. It will be more efficient for me to go in person to shut down the planetary shield."

Russell didn't care too much about king versus king or general cards. As long as it could make the implementation of the plan more efficient, as the supreme leader, he didn't mind going off to tear up the soldiers in person.

Didn’t the emperor personally go into battle and kill the greenskins?

"You're going in person? How can that be possible...Okay." Gray Wind subconsciously wanted to object, but seeing Russell's unquestionable look, he had to give up, "Then my subprocess will go with you."

"Okay." Russell had no objection.

After wiping out the meager space power in the Swalk Hub, the dense fleet of the Federation Navy hovered in the orbit of the planet. Russell, accompanied by Gray Wind, left the cabin, preparing to directly rely on psychic spells to protect the planet's shield. A small opening was made on the top of the plane and it entered the atmosphere.

But before setting off, Gray Wind suddenly received a signal from the ground of Swalk Hub.

It was a communication request, a brief message translated into a question:

"Who are you? Why are you attacking us? We have never offended you!"

"Interesting." Russell was overjoyed and asked Gray Wind to accept the communication request from the Swalk Hub. The holographic projection projected an alien organic creature with a humanoid appearance, but only 4 fingers on each hand, and completely smooth off-white skin. In front of Russell, he was the spokesperson of Swalk Hub.

As the fins on the forehead of the creature in the holographic projection opened and closed, Grey Wind simultaneously translated his words to Russell:

"Are you from outside the universe? The records of our ancestors tell us that there is a larger world outside the universe, but we can't get out..."
