Chapter 403: Twin Stars Shine
"Long time no see."
"yes, long time no see."
The interior of the Star Serpent is a makeshift spatial circuit. Residing in the massive head of the worldly snake, in the endless void, the two of them forged a platform for temporary foothold.
After four years, Su Jing and Su Luo finally stood face to face again. Both of them looked at each other carefully, and the people in their memories and the people in front of them gradually overlapped, but they were different because of the passage of time.
"Alo...... You've grown a little taller. β
has almost caught up with Su Jing's height, the girl's tall figure is already one meter seventy-five, hearing this, Su Luo smiled shallowly, bright and beautiful.
"No way...... When cultivating the amount of magnetic field force, you have to make your body a little larger to accommodate the amount of force...... Ah, but now that I've trained to 970,000 horses, this bit of body shape correction can also be modified back at any time......"
"No, no. What are you now...... It's beautiful, too. β
The two tried to get closer, and Su Jing reached out and touched her fingertips. The palms of the two tried to clasp together, warm and soft, not hallucinatory, indeed holding together.
"I've worked hard for you these days." Su Jing rubbed her slender and powerful fingers, the girl's crimson cheeks looked delicate and cute, and the two hovering horns on her head also looked very beautiful.
"No...... I just feel happy now...... But it's sad that because of me, my brother was involved in these troubles. Su Luo's breathing was a little short, she put her head close to Su Jing's neck, and whispered:
"Brother. Do you want light or darkness? β
ββ¦β¦ Light. β
Suddenly, Su Luo bit his lip. The delicate sweet tongue licked Su Jing's two rows of sharp teeth vigorously, sucking the liquid in his mouth. When the two breathe together. Su Jing suddenly felt as if the surging power in his body seemed to be sucked away, and the chaotic demon hunting insects flew up in his heart against his will, and the bodies of the two were tightly together, their breath and blood were connected, and even the veins of energy began to link.
As the chaotic power was sucked away by Su Luo, where the lips and tongues of the two were entangled, a pure light power poured in. The wriggling demon hunting insects in Su Jing's heart were almost exploded at this moment. Compared to the Emperor's Holy Light, the simple, clean and powerful light power swallowed up the power of the human emperor in an instant, and this power was not the so-called order, but it was close to it. It is a broad concept that belongs to the lower level.
This is existence, existence, matter, waves and particles, energy, the collapse of probability waves, certainty, oneness, and ......
I think, therefore I am.
Su Jing hugged her tightly as if she was going to rub Su Luo into her body. Drifting in a sea of realization and joy, the metamorphosis of essence brings with it the ecstasy that comes from the depths of his soul, and he lets out a beastly roar.
"Don't, don't turn on resonance mode here...... There is still business...... "Su Luo finally got rid of her brother. She wiped her mouth, rubbed her face with her fingers, and took a few deep breaths to calm down. "Whew...... It's kissing and hugging, and it seems a little disgusting...... That one. Let's talk about exchanging feelings when you're free. Now that my brother is here, the probability of the two of us surviving is a little higher. β
Su Jing licked his sharp teeth. I also felt a little embarrassed: "Ahem, do you know who we are going to deal with this time?" β
"Uh...... In our circle, she is known as the Sorrowful Wind of the Bereaval of Bereavement, the 'Mother of All Beasts'. You can probably guess what kind of person it is by hearing the name...... Ten stars. If she's serious, I don't think the probability of us surviving is more than 20%. Su Luo folded her fingers and calculated slightly, "We can't win a head-on battle, running away from this universe is the only way, but the concept of Sadness Wind is 'gestation', she can ...... 'collect' the spatial structure of this universe, and then give birth to the heirs of the space-don't ask me how she did it, I also want to know what the principle of this 'Ritian' is...... In this way, she can lock on to the plane of space-time. And for those of us below the ten stars, the only way to escape is to kill the space beast she gave birth to in this universe, and then we can break through the space blockade. β
"Directions."
"Sorrowful Wind needs the help of the empty beast she gave birth to travel through space, so as long as her incarnation appears, the space beast must be by her side......"
The two figures stood side by side on the platform, the wide starry window unfolding in front of them. Like a cockpit, it is located on the head of a giant serpent that has been transformed into a planet.
"Name?"
ββ¦β¦ JΓΆrmangund. The earthly python Yolman Gunde. β
The two of them looked into the distance at the same time, and the equally beautiful figures stood side by side in front of the starry sky, standing calmly and elegantly, like an oil painting. Obviously, they are facing the danger of nine deaths and one life, but as long as these two people stand together, they give people a sense of fearlessness. It's like as long as the two of them are together, there is nothing impossible in the world.
The twin stars of destiny meet again in this universe, and a brilliant light will shine throughout the galaxy.
ββββββ
"Now, in retrospect, it was a game in the beginning. Your Excellency Goethe. The magician shook the red wine in his glass and asked nonchalantly, "From the very beginning, we were designed to be in this Warhammer 40K universe. That's right. β
ββ¦β¦ In Su Jing's team, I admire you the most. β
Redbeard smiled and brushed the sharpened goatee from his chin with his thumb and forefinger.
"Think back to what happened when we entered this world...... If there is no land, it is to separate us. And the main purpose is to separate us from Su Jing. β
From the very beginning, Su Jing sensed the danger of the future and decided to improve the strength of the team, and he entered the situation of being controlled by the chess player. And the legendary Barbarossa must also be one of the people who play chess...... Princess Celestia suggested that Su Jing come to Warhammer 40k to exercise, but in fact pushed him to the center of the storm......
Thinking about it at this moment, Lu Mengyao only felt a slight chill down her spine, but the magician had a deep bearing. Joy and anger are almost never superficial, and even the rhythm of the heartbeat does not change.
"After we entered this universe. Xiao Qi was originally going to Mars, but was attacked by an orc spaceship on the way. Crashed into a planet full of metal undead; Sadako and I went to find the Son of a Thousand Sores, only to find the abandoned network of the Spirit Clanβwas it really all a coincidence? β
After entering the Warhammer World, everyone set the goal of improving their strength while completing the mission. At the end of the day, this goal was achieved in an unexpected way. And the one with the biggest deviation is Su Jing, who has been completely involved in the core of the conspiracy. Compared to the troubles he encountered, it was already a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.
Barbarossa tapped her thigh with her slender fingers, glaring slightly. Just when Lu Mengyao thought that he would not say a word, the mechanical master spoke:
"Push the boat with the current. In your Oriental idiom, it is to push the boat with the current. The entire multiverse is being swept up in the calculations of a part of the population. Su Jing just happened to meet and was chosenβI asked the eldest princess to send him here because it could have my attention, and I could take care of it a little. If it was on someone else's territory, the probability that Su Jing and Su Luo, the two children, would survive was not even 10%. β
"And you and your friends, just hidden behind the scenes, tried to exert force, only to inexplicably drift in the turbulence to places we didn't expect. Originally, I did arrange an opportunity to study and test on Mars. And on the planet you're traveling, there are indeed complete ways of spiritual cultivation - but someone has skillfully leveraged the worldly realm, the butterfly law, and made you lose control - fortunately, you have both overcome your difficulties. And it's back in the range of power between me and the emperor. Otherwise......"
The magician's pupils shrank, and she remembered the evil god Tzeentch's cage of divine power. On the whole, the emperor has the help of the directors of the science and technology alliance. If anyone wants to cause trouble, then contact the four evil gods of subspace. And make arrangements in reality. It's also a very reasonable possibility.
"Besides, Su Luo originally had the power crystallization of Bai Qianlang's old man. But who was it that lured the strongest of the Crimson Force Pursuit Team into this universe, so that she had to use up the power crystals? According to my tip, Su Luo had jumped seventeen universes in a row and had already thrown off all the assassins, so who deliberately guided Shirley's team here? Thinking about it again, Demon Heaven and the Immortal Immortal Sect were at war in the universe 108,000 miles away, how could Chu Lingkong and Zhou Bofu happen to fight here, and even bring the brainless thing of Sadness Wind here? β
The pieces of the puzzle began to converge in the wizard's mind. Don't be guided by this man to think, Lu Mengyao thought quietly, but at the same time, he has no reason to lie to us...... Take these clues apart and rethink them.
Based on all the information before and after, Lu Mengyao quickly came to a conclusion.
"I'm sure you've already guessed it. The Chaos Insurgency is trying to start a war, and I only need to twist it a little bit to get my goal. β
The white-gold goatee under the red beard's jaw quivered slightly, as if laughing.
Magician Huo Ran stood up, and not far away, Gage and Sadako Yamamura were watching the movement in the starry sky with tense expressions. The giant serpent that the planet had transformed into was swimming into deep space, and in the distant horizon, there seemed to be an invisible black shadow approaching, and the stars were extinguishing one by one, as if they had swallowed all the stars along the way.
"I've calculated the astral distance a bit, and it's about a thousand light-seconds away from here, which means that we're seeing what we saw sixteen minutes ago, and at the speed at which this thing is moving, Jing might have been fighting with it."
The brown-haired girl had a rare sad expression, and Sadako Yamamura looked like she was about to collapse. The psionic's pale face had a few thin streaks of blood, which she had scratched with her fingernails when she was too nervous.
"Miss Lu, Mr. Redbeard...... I'm going to help Jing Jun, right? β
The magician looked into Sadako Yamamura's eyes, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a second, she spat out the truth:
"Barbarossa...... He won't stop them. Because he, too, longs for war! β
As soon as Sadako moved, Lu Mengyao's wrist was buckled. The magician pressed her against the crystal curtain wall and hissed, "Don't be stupid, this level of battle. It's useless for ten you to go up! β
"But ......"
Lu Mengyao felt tiny droplets of water on her wrist. She hesitated for a moment and tried to hold Sadako Yamamura with her arm. The psyker whimpered in her arms, letting out a miserable wail.
"Don't worry. It's fine. People like Su Jing wouldn't die so easily......"
Even Lu Mengyao herself didn't believe such words.
ββ¦β¦ Here we go. β
Gage's eyes widened and she muttered.
In the distance of the starry sky, the black field of the starry sky seemed to turn into a living beast, biting with the cruising star serpent. The violent explosion of light could also be clearly seen in such a distant place, and the battle between the stars was dazzlingly bombarded again and again.
Lu Mengyao once read about the explosion of supernova in a book, which was the most brilliant scene in the universe. Stars collapse inwards at nearly the speed of light under instability, while gas is ejected outwards with incomparably large amounts of energy. The blade-like shockwave is indestructible, capable of easily slicing a planet in two. Utterly destroy everything above. In the depths of the earth's crust, lava overflows red from the shattered planet like a broken egg......
And these are also overshadowed by the spectacle in front of them.
"Light ......!"
Gage suddenly exclaimed.
In the Star Serpent, which was on the verge of being completely shattered, two brilliant light sources shot into the deep void. It may seem strange to use the word "light source" to describe a black star, but magicians think that the black light is also shining.
The two inverted stars intertwine with each other, weaving a spiral atlas that collides, bites, whirls, and intersects wildly around the unidentified enemies in the void...... The beautiful trajectory of the tapestry seemed to her to have a ...... Ominous. The feeling of a moth to a fire is like a desperate struggle.
"Their range of activities is getting smaller and smaller...... It's trapped! β
If one of them is Su Jing, then the other ...... Is it Su Luo, who only knows her name?
Lu Mengyao's pupils reflected a thousand light-seconds away, and the information received here had a sixteen-minute delay. In other words, at the same time she saw this scene, Su Jing might have ...... He's dead.
Her heart ached slightly. At the same time, there is a different kind of sourness. If it weren't for Su Luo. At this time, the only person who is qualified to dance with Su Jing. It should be yourself. Only Su Jing is worthy of communicating on the same level as herself, and on the contrary, she should be the only one...... Only I can stand side by side with him......
Zhilu said that he was just muttering in his heart, and the magician couldn't help but take a long sip of cold red wine. Alcohol...... Even if it's just for a short while, so that I don't have to face reality.
The Mechanic and Psychic had stopped breathing. In the gloomy shadow of the universe, the two stars, one light and one dim, came together, merged into an indescribable color, and then suddenly emitted an extremely strong light, which was still dazzling even at such a distance.
Then, the unpleasant shadow of the void faded away, and a faint howl sounded in their hearts...... Win?
But on the contrary, the two dazzling stars also gradually lowered and disappeared in an instant.
Lu Mengyao blinked, and the spots of light they left behind were still imprinted on the bottom of his eyeballs, but in the universe...... The two stars disappeared like that.
"I must be alive." She said.
"Su Jing must be alive."
Sadako Yamamura only felt that the force of her hand grasping her shoulder was so strong that it hurt her, and she almost pinched blood.
ββββββ
Two days later, an award ceremony was held on the Expeditionary Force's flagship race, the Forles. Among those who were awarded the medal was Ai. His Excellency Judge Progast, distinguished Eric. Commissar Donn, the valiant warrior Yarrow. Skullcapulator, a fighting nun who made great sacrifices. In Memphis, as well as the entire Ragnar Dalian of the Space Wolf Warband, all those who died in the mission were posthumously awarded Imperial Battle Heroes. It was the highest honor of the empire to be awarded by the emperor himself, and during the entire ceremony, even the always cold-faced Lord Progaste had to put on a stiff smile.
What can be regarded as a "miracle" is that most of Ragnar's Dalian and Yarrow survived, and it is said that His Majesty the Divine Emperor personally used his divine power to bring back these brave warriors who died bravely. According to official propaganda, Ragnar stepped through the realm of death after their heroic sacrifice and ascended to the realm of the Human Emperor, and then reshaped in order to continue their loyal service in the universe. But after drinking too much, he claimed that after setting up the detonation of the nuclear bomb, he was thrown directly back to the space monastery of the wolf group through a subspace teleportation channel.
Susanna. Defes's reward was to receive a letter of appointment allowing her to establish a new congregation of nuns in her own name.
And after the awakening of the Human Emperor, the first Dawn Expedition of the Human Empire did not end here, but just began. In the midst of this long and great war of revival, the repaired network system will bring unimaginable rapid development to the human empire, and as planets are reclaimed, the end of this expedition will be set in the most dangerous place in the entire galaxy: the Eye of Fear.
The Gates of Kadian will be completely reclaimed, and the dormant shadows of chaos in the Eye of Fear will be completely crushed by the unprecedented power of the God Emperor. After clarifying the reality of the universe, the human army will step into the chaotic realm of subspace, and under the leadership of the greatest emperor of all time, he will personally conquer the evil god himself entrenched in the void.
"It's been almost a week, and they're still searching?"
Cruiser "Holy Vengeance". It is rare for the commissar to sit leisurely in the corner of the dining room, reading a scholar's travelogue about the customs and etiquette of various places.
"yes."
The inquisitor changed into civilian clothes, forked a sausage and threw it into his mouth, his short silver-gray hair fluttering gently. Don always felt that her digestive system was probably the most obvious place in her body, and once he calculated that this female worm could nibble five kilograms of meat in a single meal.
Since Progast's mission was not completely completed, the team also cured the remains of this star field, and followed those otherworldly travelers to dig up the ruins at the wreckage of the Star Serpent, which happened to give the remaining three members of the Inquisitor team a chance to rest. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Eric felt the need to refill the list of credible candidates, and he had already reviewed several files and made a list of those he considered to have credible qualifications.
ββ¦β¦ I'll take a look. β
The commissar straightened the medal on his chest and walked towards the hangar.
About 50,000 meters from the cruiser, a huge piece of wreckage floated in the void. Three tiny figures are like ants on a cake, searching through what looks like a "head".
"The signal is here...... That's right......"
Although it was not much necessary, Gage was still wearing a space suit. This is the thirty-fifth body they have searched for this week, and the energy response shown by the signal detection is within kilometers of the surrounding kilometers.
ββ¦β¦ Got it. β
Two hundred meters away from her, Sadako Yamamura dug up a small, fingernail-sized white beetle from the dried and frozen flesh. The beetle appeared to be sealed in a twelve-sided crystal block, dormant and motionless.
"Since this beetle is still alive, then it proves that Su Jing ...... Alive. Lu Mengyao flashed to Sadako Yamamura's side, the dodecahedron crystal was warm to the touch, and it didn't seem to be extraordinary, "But dormant...... I've never seen his Demon Hunter go into hibernation. β
For a moment, the three fell silent.
ββ¦β¦ There is an explanation. The magician pondered for a moment, "He's no longer in this universe, leaving this demon hunting worm as a message to us. If it's Su Jing, I'll definitely be able to go back to New York. If he didn't make it back to New York because of some kind of accident...... Then we'll go to him. β
"The universe is big. But for us...... It's not particularly big either. β
