Chapter 412: Expedition Road: New World
At first there was nothing, except for a piece of snow-white light, nothing existed in it. There was no sound, no touch, and no temperature. It was as if everything had been completely engulfed in white light.
But gradually, Yiyana began to feel something. Something in the white light in her field of vision began to change. Hazy shadows began to appear on the white curtain, and gradually began to take shape and become clearer. Her eyes He opened his mouth with difficulty, but the tingling sensation still existed around his eyeballs.
But Yiyana was at least certain that she was still alive. She felt no discomfort except for the stinging pain in her eyes. She still looked around at everything with blurred vision.
"Are you still there?" Vito's voice asked from the side. Yiyanna raised her head and saw Vito squatting next to her. His huge body shrouded her in front of her, and his golden power armor blocked her like a shield. Front.
Yiyanna raised her head and looked at Vito who was lowering his head. She nodded and then turned to look elsewhere, "I'm fine. What happened just now? Self-destruction?"
"Obviously, that brat put a bomb in the clone's power armor, but it's not surprising, that stingy guy." Vito complained. He knew Honso's character. He inherited Petula almost perfectly. Bo's characteristics are greed, stinginess and neurosis.
If Perturabo couldn't get something, then no one could get it, and he would destroy it to make sure no one outside of him could get it. The boy had always been like this, and it seemed that Perturabo had inherited his genes. Turab also upholds this character perfectly.
"That kid, if nothing else happens, I think we are probably trapped here." Vito looked at the place where the portal should have been, at least it used to be there, but it was empty and there was nothing there. .
"Vito." Iyana's eyes widened as she looked away. She patted Vito's chest with her hand. The power armor banged under the patting of her little hands. Vito followed Iyana's hand in surprise. The vision looked over, and then his eyes widened.
Next to them was an exploding cloud. The white flame that burst out instantly burned in the air, but it was not like that. It stopped, literally, and the entire explosion seemed to be frozen. , the shock wave and clouds were completely stagnant, and even the burning flames were stuck in the air like pieces of paper.
Vito stood up in surprise. Yiyanna in front of him walked up in surprise. She stood in front of the completely stopped explosion suspended in the air. She could even see the black one surrounded by flames and on the verge of being shattered. Power armor, their shattered fragments hung in the air, motionless.
"What is going on?" Yiyanna asked in surprise. Vito also walked up behind her. He stood in front of the frozen flame and frowned slightly at what was in front of him.
"It looks like time was suspended, and something or existence froze Hong Suo after the explosion."
"Local time distortion, but I have never seen such rapid and precise time stasis technology." Yiyanna said in amazement. She has never seen such powerful time and space capabilities. This is not to say that the current universe No one can do it. In fact, there are many people who can do it.
Humans have a static position that can lock all time flows in a certain area. The Throne of Guilliman on Macragge is one of the representative technologies. In addition, the Eldar and the Necrons also have the same technology, which is much better than humans. All are more advanced.
But Yiyanna also knows that even the latter two cannot freeze time at the moment of the explosion, and can control it within such a small range without affecting the surroundings. The technology in front of her is no longer possible. It undoubtedly surpasses the technological limits of all existing species and countries, or in other words, magic.
Yiyanna reached out to touch the edge of the frozen time. On the edge of the stagnant explosion, there was a circle of ripples, like the edge of some kind of water.
The slender white fingers touched the boundary, and in the blink of an eye the explosion rapidly collapsed inward. When Yiyana reacted, it quickly shrank into a very small point, and then disappeared in front of the two of them. , not even a trace was left, as if the explosion never happened.
Yiyanna turned her head in surprise and looked at Vito behind her. The latter also frowned. What he just saw was a kind of space collapse technology, a space manipulation technology that was even better than what he had seen in the golden age. The application of much more advanced technologies can no longer even be defined by technology and science.
The compression that just occurred completely ignored the laws of space, conservation of matter, and all physical laws. It almost completed everything in a higher dimension that spans the entire human scientific cognition, and even the cognition of all existing species.
After thinking about it with his experience and wisdom of tens of thousands of years, Vito came to the conclusion that what he just saw was not a simple space compression technology, but a dimensionality reduction strike. The explosion was compressed from three dimensions to two dimensions. plane, then a thin line in one dimension, and finally collapses to zero dimension and disappears.
Vito and Yiyanna looked at each other, and then invariably looked at the dynamic key suspended on the side. The thing was constantly changing itself, as if it did not obey the law of conservation of matter at all, and the entire body was constantly reorganizing into different contours. , most of which have no connection at all.
"I guess if we want to leave this hellish place, we have to open that thing." Vito looked at the key, raised his hand slightly and bowed his head towards Yiyanna, "Go, eldest son of the ancient saint, go and open it. Should you call your father’s inheritance mom? By the way, do those big toads have genders?”
"No one has seen the ancient saint, Vito, so no one knows whether they are male or female, or whether they are like giant toads." Yiyanna said and came to the key. She raised one hand and the key gently flew down, and the rotating key hovered in front of her.
After Yiyangna took a deep breath, she reached out to touch the key, but before her fingers touched the thing, the entire key quickly disintegrated and dispersed to the side, moving away from Yiyangna's arm at the speed of light. There was also a sound, and that strange, ethereal sound that seemed to be mixed with countless tones sounded again.
"Scan target result: Not the last guardian, refused to start."
Yiyanna retracted her finger in surprise. She looked at her palm and pondered for a moment before suddenly turning her head. She looked at Vito behind her and pointed at the key, "Come and try."
"Me? I wasn't created by the Ancient Saint." Vito tapped his iron fist on his chest in confusion and said, his face full of confusion, but Yiyanna shook her head, and she looked at the key that was far away.
"It just said the last guardian. Is that the same as your title? The last guardian, Vito Constantine." "Maybe it's just the same name? The last guardian is not a rare title. Besides, Well, when the ancient saints or similar beings created this thing, there were no monkeys on the earth, right? It couldn't be me."
"No." Yiyanna shook her head. She looked at the strange energy key, and after some thinking, she responded more confidently, "Legend has it that the Ancient Sage possesses the most powerful psychic power in the universe, even more powerful than the Four Chaos. Gods and emperors are even stronger. They are both proficient in psychic powers, including psychic precognition, so they can know the future even after tens of millions of years."
Vito smiled mockingly and shrugged, with a smirk on his face, "Yes, I just didn't predict that the undead, or the Necrontyr, would shake out the Star God, turn himself into an iron skeleton, and then go on to fuck the ancient saints. die."
Yiyanna turned her head and looked at Vito coldly, obviously not interested in his teasing just now. She pointed at the key behind her and said, "Stop waffling over there. Come here, take the key and insert it." ”
"Are you sure I won't be burned to ashes as soon as I touch it, or be blown up to pieces or something?" Vito pointed at the key with a wry smile, and Yiyanna in front of him crossed her arms. Waist, stood in front of the platform and looked at him coldly.
"Do we have any other choice? Can you open the portal?" "I guess. No?" "So shut up and get the key."
Vito smiled bitterly and sighed and walked up. When he passed by Yiyanna, he glanced at her with a smile, then complained and walked up, "Who did you learn this character of being bolder than anyone else from?"
"What do you think?" Yiyanna said mockingly, standing behind with her arms folded and looking at Vito. The latter came to the key and opened the power armor on his chest. Vito himself jumped out of the golden armor. After moving his arms, he raised his hand towards the key, and then the key came closer by itself.
The energy key changed itself and came closer, and flew smoothly into Vito's hand. The latter held the key that was constantly changing and raised his eyebrows in surprise. He glanced at Yiyana behind him, and then Zheye nodded silently, and then Vito slightly shrugged his shoulders.
"Anyway, how could it be any worse?" Vito said as he suddenly inserted the key into the card slot below, and then twisted it violently to the side. The key instantly clicked with the interface, and Hongso started The same thing that happened before happened again, and a large number of light filaments spread out like the roots of a big tree, quickly covering all the surrounding discs.
But this time, the difference from before is that those disks did not stop. They rotated rapidly and opened a new window to the surroundings. It was a huge spherical sky. As the disks all moved along the sphere, The surface fell downwards, and a strange sky appeared above Vito.
It was a blue sky with white clouds dotted on it. A sun that looked like a decomposed sphere hung high in the sky. The edge of the blazing sun had several protruding tooth-like edges. It looked like It's quite similar to Vito's halo.
Under the shining of the sun, there is a huge circular mountain range on the land below. Between the mountains lies an inland sea, and is surrounded by a circle of tall mountains. They tower into the clouds and leave a mountain at the top. There are dots of white snow, and at the foot of the mountains and between the inner lakes is an endless stretch of grassland and forest.
Outside the mountains, there is an endless sea. The land outside them is like a ring floating on the sea.
Vito looked around at everything. No matter where he was, he knew that he was no longer in Warmark. If nothing else, the temple he was in before was deep underground, but now he was obviously in On the surface of a mysterious planet.
"Fuck, where are we?"
"The last guardian has been authenticated and identified, the system has been started, and the administrator interface has been opened. Welcome, guardian."
It was not Iyanna who answered Vito, but the mysterious ethereal voice before. It spoke in a strange but human language that Vito could understand, and it was not Gothic, but Vito's mother tongue, his real mother tongue.
An island that disappeared with the nuclear explosion during the Terra Civil War. The place and language that Vito thought he had forgotten long ago, but it suddenly reborn in Vito's mind with those words, as if it had never really disappeared.
It was a language that Iyanna could not understand, but she could know from Vito's surprised profile that the words were not ordinary. She walked forward and approached Vito, "What did it say?"
Vito did not answer Iyanna. He glanced and immediately saw the position of a disc that suddenly reorganized at hand. The outline and shape of the end of that place were almost exactly the same as Helen's one, and it could even be said to be exactly the same. It was suspected that it was made according to the disc, but Vito knew that it was impossible.
Vito immediately took out Helen and put her on the disk. Helen also appeared on it immediately. "Helen, access the system to find out where this place is and everything here."
"Yes, sir." Helen and Vito looked at each other briefly and then turned around and disappeared. The disk under her flickered with the light path around her. Iyangna walked to Vito's side.
"Hello, Helen, long time no see."
"Long time no see, Iyangna, how are you?"
"I say, let's find out where we are first, and then greet each other as sisters, okay?" Vito said to the two of them. Iyangna and Helen looked at each other and shrugged. The little artificial intelligence lady turned around and slid a large piece of flashing parameters across her eyes.
Vito stood behind the platform, folded his arms and looked around, "What the hell is this place? An island in a paradise world?"
As soon as Vito finished speaking, Helen flashed back to the disc, the cold glacier on her face melted instantly, revealing a look of shock. She turned her head to look at Vito behind her, who also leaned over and stood behind Helen with a frown.
"No, sir, we are not on an island, but in..."
"What's the situation? Don't breathe here."
"Sir. This is an extremely large system. The whole world is a system. It is very big, much bigger than anything I have ever seen, and it is limited to this. It..."
"Hurry up, Helen, this will not be the last outrageous thing I have seen in my life, unless you can't open the portal, and then we are trapped here, then this may be the last one." Helen turned her back to Vito, as if she was going to say something scary, but Vito just stood behind her with his arms folded and shrugged.
Vito's smile seemed to be trying to make Helen relax a little. I don't know if it worked, but Helen was ready to continue. She lowered her head and was silent for a while, and then raised her head after organizing her words.
She looked into Vito's eyes, nodded to Iyanna who was leaning over, and then looked at Vito and said slowly, "Sir, this is an artificial planet created by the ancient saints. It's not just a planet, but an artificial universe. The planet under our feet, the ancient saints called it."
"What?"
"The Medieval World."
Don't rush to spray, or open your mind. I will make one thing clear. I will not do a patchwork like some online articles. I have to make a bunch of weird patchworks for popularity and liveliness. So since I wrote the Medieval World, it must be in line with the logic of the 40K universe
(I personally emphasize that the Medieval is the Medieval, and 40K is 40K. Don't force a stitch just because they are both called Warhammer. It will only be weird if you force these two together)
