1.9 Open Fenus's eyes
Hades had little expectation for the meeting.
The original has an odd temper, and Hades's act of inviting him to board the Silent Order ship in order to detect the loyalty of the other party is even more "slightly" rude, and even before Fernus responds to the Silent Order, Hades is not sure if the original will accept his invitation.
So when Fernus gladly accepted Hades' invitation, Hades was very moved.
And when Fernus said that there was no need to be polite, Hades thought that he could award Fernus a moving empire award.
Time is of the essence, and the sooner you reach the Eye of Fear to find out the truth, the better, but it is also necessary to gain the trust of the Cooperative Legion, and it is almost rare for a primordial like Fenus to be willing to trust him if he only needs to show the facts and truth.
According to the logic, the two science and engineering talents are thinking right, and the next thing Hades needs to worry about is how to make the warriors of the Iron Hand adapt to the battle with the subspace creatures in advance.
But......
What did Fenus mean by what he just said?
Hades looked at Fenus with a little hesitation, and as if aware of Hades' confusion, Fenus, who had just suddenly immersed himself in memories, spoke directly, and he stared at Hades,
[I have talked to the Lord of Death about some ......]
Fenus frowned slightly, and carefully considered the words,
[Matters related to subspace.] γ
Fernus realized that Hades was staring at him with some blankness, but then Hades spoke,
"What do you see, Fenus?"
Without hesitation, Hades asked,
"Motarian doesn't reveal information to the uninformed for no reason...... Unless you see something. β
Fenus's brow almost condensed into a small mountain, and he stared at Hades, as if assessing whether Hades could know these things.
After a brief silence, Fenus made his choice, and the Lord of Medusa shook his head slightly, and he looked away,
Mortarian trusts you, and I trust Motarian. γ
[I hope you deserve this trust, Hades, though I am confused by your existence.] γ
Hades opened his hand, Fenus is not the same as other primitives, Fenus once said that he is the emperor's tool, in terms of his own positioning and cognition, perhaps Fenus and Hades have something in common,
"I am responsible to humanity and to the Empire, Fernus, all my activities are based on preserving humanity as much as possible, and in accordance with my current position, I will do my best to prevent the invasion of the physical world by the subspace - even Motarian, if he hinders the future ...... of humanity"
Hadiston paused, his tone a little lighter,
"But that's why Motarian trusts me."
The corners of Fenus's mouth were pursed and he smiled, but soon he returned to his tense state,
[Looks like our cooperation is going to be going well, Hades.] γ
Fenus swallowed briefly, and unsurprisingly saw the red light in Hades' left eye flash, but his calm voice still trembled slightly,
[I saw something similar to Fugen. γ
Fenus peeked at Hades' expression with his peripheral vision, which was unexpected to him, but it also seemed reasonable, Hades did not react very much.
γβ¦β¦ You don't look surprised. γ
Hades sighed and shook his head slightly, he
"You've known this in advance, Fenus. Then it will be much easier for me to explain to you what else might happen. β
Thanks to Motarian, Hades thought, and at the same time he was also thinking about how to tell Fenus, for Fenus's popular science, he originally planned to start with subspace, but it seems that Fernus has made up the lessons in advance and has jumped to the part of the mutiny.
Fenus was silent, silent for a long time, and at last, his taut cheeks moved,
What else could have happened? γ
Hades blinked,
"Let me offend."
The next moment, the powerlessness that Fernus felt when he first boarded the ship reappeared, at first it grew stronger as he went deeper into the hull, but when he reached the strategy room, this feeling disappeared abruptly.
And now, they're swept over again, like a viscous sea of pitch black.
Fenus took a shallow breath,
[Is this your ability?] γ
"Yes, it is possible to cancel out some of the effects of subspace on the physical world."
Hades said as he motioned for the servant to bring chairs and water.
"Looks like this conversation is going to take a little longer,"
But now is not a waste of time, just now when Fernus said that the cooperation was pleasant, Hades received permission from the Lord of Medusa, and under Hades's calculations, the fleets of the Iron Hand and the Silent Order are now reorganizing their defensive queues and preparing to continue sailing.
Hades said that he handed Fenus a glass of water and smiled after seeing Fenus glance cautiously at the liquid inside,
"I'm guessing you've already tasted the poisoned wine of the Death Guard?"
Fernus sat down, he took a sip of water from his cup,
γUnforgettable drink.γ γ
He politely commented.
Hades sat down, his eyes staring at Fernus,
"We're both straight-up personalities, Fenus, and I need to know where your line of acceptance is."
Hades watched Fenus start drinking water again, the original body needed a little time to judge his mental state, of course Hades had to give him this little space, and while Fenus was drinking water, Hades was chattering like idle chatter,
"The first to know these things was Motarian...... He was really frightened, don't tell Motarian about this! But I don't think there's anyone who doesn't feel panic and despair in the face of these things, and I was desperate for a long time."
"But it's also easy to accept these things,"
Hardston paused,
"You just need to realize that this world is not as glorious as the empire advertises, this world is full of malice, and if you don't feel your life being oppressed - then you probably don't see the thread tied around your neck."
"Well......" Hades was silent for a moment, "and then the Grim Reaper became that indifferent look, for he was always on the alert. β
[I understand him. γ
Fenus spoke,
[Hades, I can accept the death of a brother, a regional rebellion, and an existence that violates the truth of the Empire. γ
He looked at Hades and smiled, similar to the picture, and Fernus suddenly remembered the picture of himself being drunk by Motarian, and his fingers holding the glass twitched uncontrollably, thanking that it was water.
Hades took a deep breath,
"That's easy."
Hades said,
"Let me start with the battle we are going to face this time, Fenus, we now go to the Eye of Fear, which is Cygnus-X1, this star field is a state of superposition between the subspace and the physical world, which means that subspace creatures can appear in this star field more easily."
"Subspace creatures are not like ordinary enemies, not only gunpowder, guns, and swords, but in their realm, emotions and hearts will also be battlefields, specific emotions will provide power to specific subspace creatures, and if the human mind is defeated in the battle with them, then this person will be more prone to mutation - he will become a tool and slave of subspace creatures."
Hades glanced at Fenus, and it seemed that he accepted it well, but the fact that there were creatures in subspace violated the truth of the Empire,
Hades continued,
"And subspace creatures are also strong and weak, and the strongest of them ......"
Hardston paused,
"At least it's stronger than the emperor you know now, and there's more than one such existence in subspace."
Phineus's simple voice rang out,
[Acceptably, there is also an existence on the battlefield of Ulanor that my father cannot match. γ
Hades howled in his heart, silly boy, your dad is acting!
In order to give Fenus a deeper understanding of what they were up against, Hades hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to speak,
"My description is still not very accurate, I mean, these powerful subspace creatures are closer to the concept of [gods] in people's mouths."
"And ......"
Hades said slowly,
"Actually, with the exception of the Silent Retreat and the Death Guard, who choose the canonical word, most people who see subspace creatures will simply choose to name them [Demons], now you understand what I mean?"
Fenusmanus remained motionless, like a statue cast of iron, but Hades watched as a drop of sweat ran down his head.
It was clear to Fernus that Hades meant that, in order to avoid panic, the official term was subspace creatures, and the truth was ......
Hades coughed awkwardly,
"Are you okay?"
He asked tentatively,
"If you need any help...... While I don't recommend drinking alcohol at this point in time, I have a couple of bottles of Motarian's poisoned liquor in my personal collection, if you need to-"
[No, I don't need to. γ
Fernus immediately interrupted Hades, as if he didn't want to remember the unbearable past.
[What is the truth of the Empire?] γ
Fernus asked,
"I just said that certain emotions and hearts give power to subspace creatures, and in fact, even when they are not in the war zone, the emotions generated by creatures connected to the subspace are giving them strength at every moment, every minute."
Hades looked at Fenus almost stagnant, even his breathing had stopped, long pain is better than short pain, Hades decided to finish in one breath,
"Knowing the existence of subspace creatures and actively trying to provide them with power is completely different from ignorance, the emperor wants to convince all humans that there are no creatures in subspace - this psychic power will also have an effect on subspace, and play a role in weakening subspace creatures."
Hades smiled bitterly,
"Don't panic too much, thanks to the laws of this world, subspace creatures can't easily pass through the curtain of subspace and the physical universe and disturb the physical universe."
Only then did Fernus sigh slightly, and the Lord of Medusa said softly,
If that's what you say...... I see why......]
Hades was stunned,
"Got what?"
Why...... Why did I see Fugen like that, what the hell happened to him...... If there really is a subspace creature that plays with the mind and is stronger than the father. γ
Fernus thought and took a sip of water,
[Earlier, Motarian only reminded me that our brother could turn into a monster, and warned me to be careful of subspace, but he did not explain the details and principles. γ
Hades smiled, he thought in his heart, Motarian didn't talk to you about numerology is already a great success, you can't force him so much.
Although Hades thought so in his heart, he didn't say so on his lips, Hades said quite smoothly,
"He's warning about the existence of the subspace, and intense emotions and specific sentences will attract their attention, so he can't say it too clearly."
"Not here,"
Hades said lightly,
"I'm a soulless, and I can shield them from a thicker veil, which is why we can make it all clear here - except, of course, the words with the highest strength in the subspace."
Fenus paused for a moment,
[Is there any other way to avoid the influence of subspace other than the soulless?] The Iron Hand Legion has Psyker Collar Technology that restricts Psykers. γ
He watched as Hades' eyes lit up, and the Lord of the Silent Order leaned forward,
"It depends on what the internal principle is, but I don't think you can expect too much from this matter, there are currently no more efficient means except for the soulless and the Blackstone technology."
Hades reached out and nodded his head,
"The best way to resist subspace is to have a determined soul for creatures with souls."
Fenus let out a long sigh,
[I will, and so will he.] γ
Of course, Hades knew who he was in Fenus's mouth, and to this, Hades responded with a polite smile,
However, Hades does need to confirm the situation of Fogen, after all, the Emperor's Son is a legion that is relatively close to here.
"Did you warn Fogen after talking to Motarian before?"
Hades asked,
Fenus spoke, and there was some hesitation in his words,
[Naturally, I talked to him...... I advised him to be wary of subspace and not to be so perfect...... I advised him to use less ornaments that were only decorative, and he was a little disappointed in me. γ
Hades almost choked with a mouthful of blood, he could understand it in the front, what the hell was in the back?
Since Hades was too confused by Fenus's behavior, he had to ask more,
ββ¦β¦ Why should you dissuade him from bringing no ornaments? β
[Because I've seen that fake, it's very-]
Hades raised his hand,
"Okay, I see."
"It is right to exhort him to stay away from subspace and not to pursue perfection in an extreme way, Fenus, extreme emotions breed creatures in subspace."
Fernus was silent for a moment,
[I will give another exhortation to Fugen.] γ
"Now?"
Hades said,
"I need to warn you that the subspace is already very unstable, and the message you pass to him with the Star Whisperer is likely to be lost, or worse, distorted."
[So what should I do?] γ
Fernus asked stiffly,
Hades sighed,
"Trust him."
Hades spread his hands,
"That's the only thing you can do."
He stared at Fenus sincerely,
"Every Primordial can fall, and the only thing I can be sure of is that the Primordial I'm following won't be affected by the subspace, you seeβ"
Hades waved his hand casually, and the command board that covered the entire wall was instantly densely crawled with data,
Fenus's eyes widened,
"In this Silent Retreat's plan for depravity,"
Hades said lightly,
"There's also a copy of the Death Guard."
"But ......"
Hades said that Fernus saw two documents marked in red, one for the Iron Hand and one for the Iron Warrior, and Hades waved his hand, and the red mark of the Iron Hand was canceled.
"It's time for us to focus on the Fourth Legion."
γβ¦β¦ Peturabo. γ
Fenus exhaled the name softly in his mouth.
