Chapter 488: Massive Information on the Death World
Maybe it's because this webway hasn't been used for a long time.
The long-sealed space created an indescribable sense of stagnation, and the sticky texture in the web oppressed the two people's breathing.
However, Lin Heng and Caroline are both high-level psychics, and with the protection of the elven armor, they can survive for many days even in the harsher space environment.
It felt like about ten hours had passed, and after a light gate opened, the sticky feeling immediately disappeared.
After leaving the glue-like net and landing steadily, Lin Heng immediately took a defensive stance.
Psychic perception was activated instantly, and heavy bedrock was everywhere within a hundred meters or a thousand meters.
After 600 meters upward, there is a cave leading to the outside world, and there is no dangerous situation.
After confirming the situation, Lin Heng took back the larger elf armor.
The huge armor consumes a lot of energy. Although the air on this planet is relatively thin right now, his physical condition has already adapted to the harsh environment.
"cough cough..."
After my eyes adjusted to the dark environment, I noticed Catherine bending over and coughing.
Lin Heng took out the glowing fluorite from his space pocket and threw it on the ground. The situation in the pit gradually became clear under the light.
The structure inside is very simple, with just a base covered with dust.
If he wasn't standing on it, this gray place would make people think it was just the end of a pit.
With his quick perception, he only knew that he was a hundred meters underground.
Before coming here, Ngur did not introduce the situation of the planet. I did not have time to check it out before, so now I can only pin my hopes on the crystals provided by Ngur.
The psychic energy was transmitted, and the image of Ngur was projected out from the crystal.
"Well, if you have seen my projection, it means that what you said is true. Caroline, I should have listened to you.
But before I had you, I was more of a pirate at heart, so going to the gambling table was something I couldn't avoid.
I did think about the possibility of making a loss, but I didn't expect the loss to be so complete.
Dad, I'm sorry, you have to walk the rest of the way by yourself."
Caroline sat slumped on the ground with her head down and remained still. When Ngur finished his apology, her tears began to drip onto the ground.
That kind of sad emotion was not fake at all. It must be said that the surging feeling even softened Lin Heng's heart to a certain extent.
The emotional threshold of the elves is indeed several times higher than that of humans, so much so that Lin Heng is embarrassed to disturb them now.
After all, a light sentence like "don't be sad" will only make it more difficult for people to bear the emotions in their hearts.
"Get up, we have to go to the surface first."
Lin Heng adjusted the size of his body and extended his hand to the other party. Caroline looked at the outstretched hand with lifeless eyes.
Suddenly, she bit her lips so hard that hot blood immediately flowed out.
Another completely opposite hatred surged in her heart, she pulled out the dagger and jumped up from the ground.
The blade, flashing with cold light, stabbed directly at the source of all the disasters in front of it.
The speed of the body was even faster than the transmission of emotions, and the subconscious actions were completely based on instinct.
But unfortunately, no matter how fast she was, she couldn't be faster than Lin Heng. He slapped the dagger away with his hand, and then he hit Caroline back and she fell to the ground.
Last time it was the left cheek, and this time it was the right cheek, and the force was even stronger, tearing part of the opponent's mouth.
"It's all...it's all your fault..."
"If you had left earlier, nothing would have happened..."
“Why..why…”
Caroline, lying on the ground, completely lost the ability to move.
Perhaps it was because she was heartbroken that she just lay on the ground in the position where she was whipped away.
He kept muttering, grumbling, complaining and cursing.
That damn human had no remorse or even a hint of guilt.
The coldness in his eyes was genuine and penetrated his heart. He really wanted to kill.
“Think before you act next time. I don’t have time to pity you.
Lin Heng knew that Engul was aware of the consequences of going to the poker table. He himself was well aware of the risks of investment and knew that if he didn't play, he wouldn't lose.
But he was different, he was on the gambling table.
Caroline lay on the ground, curled up and motionless. She was tired.
She continued to mutter, grumble, complain, and curse, and she missed everything she had lost while crying.
Lin Heng exhaled slowly, wondering if he had really gone too far, but perhaps it was just a conflict of different positions.
He no longer paid attention to Caroline's situation. As long as she didn't cause him any trouble, he would stay here to conserve his energy.
Open the portal of the pit from the inside and walk through the dark tunnel to the outside of the cave.
Under the dim sky is a Gobi Desert without any greenery, and the entire planet is exposed to a very severe sandstorm.
The strong wind was probably at level eight to ten. Lin Heng knew without the information in the crystal that this must be a barren world of death.
There are no living creatures, no civilization, only Lin Heng and Caroline.
He cursed inwardly, wondering why the escape route had to be placed in such a remote place. It was safe, but how to leave was a headache.
Lin Heng had no choice but to continue looking through the information recorded on the crystal, which was quite good. It said that in the galaxy of this death world, there was a pirate ship that specialized in checking the network signals.
As long as the webway is discovered to be activated, the death world will be reached in seven or eight days at most. This is one of the backup plans left by N'gur.
However, if the pirate ship that is staying there does not arrive for a long time, it may not receive the message, or it may have run away, or it may be dead, or...
Since he can't come here anyway, he can use the second backup plan and go to the place two kilometers north of the cave where there is a signal transmitter built.
Activate the signal transmission tower and send long-wave signals to attract any forces to come.
The Eldar are easy, human traders and Rogues are the best, and for the others, just try to sneak onto the ship.
Lin Heng was helpless and felt that it was more reliable to catch it with both hands. He didn't think that there were any pirates who would stay here just to wait for a model that might never be received.
But Lin Heng didn’t understand why the launcher and the network weren’t built together... He held his breath and walked into the wind and sand.
While looking inside the crystal, the other party collected information on each gene originator and searched for the signal transmitter over there.
It has to be said that Engul is indeed very efficient in his work. The tens of thousands of densely packed documents contain the resumes of multiple Primarchs over the past ten thousand years.
But a quick look revealed that the information inside was absolutely incorrect. It was completely hearsay.
He dared to say that most of the information was heard by the other party from a bar in the Strait, where various forces had drunken conversations.
After all, news like Guilliman had an affair with the Eldar Everenne and slept with her were all marked with an asterisk.
Such absurd things must have been heard by him from the fantasy of some imperial wandering merchant.
Also, it is obvious that the Eldar made up the rumors because they hate the Imperial Astartes, saying that they all have an Oedipus complex and can't wait to serve those Primarchs in bed.
Some even got the news from the enemy.
They even expressed that Typhus was the true leader of the Death Guard, to the point that Mortarion was considered their second in command.
This kind of news occupies half of the article and is purely for after-dinner conversation.
At most, it can be used to amuse people, relieve fatigue, and tell a funny story, but for Lin Heng, it is not of much use.
The remaining half, four-fifths of it, tells the stories of all the wars, big and small, among the Primarchs.
Although the records are certainly incomplete and the details are not very clear, it at least provides some valuable information.
One section of it records the major event of the Horus Heresy, and the information in it is much more detailed than what the Emperor said.
The territorial and service areas involved are beyond imagination, and a single move can affect the entire solar star region, which can be said to be a catastrophic disaster.
The last fifth tells the story of the Chaos and Loyalty factions.
In Chaos, there are very few valid records of the other Primarchs except Angron.
On the loyalist side, there are more Robert Guilliman, and the rest record the process of their disappearance.
In addition to the existing Guilliman, Vulkan, Wolf King and Lion King, there are two legion primarchs who disappeared long ago.
The few who were clearly dead were also ruled out, and the only one left was Chagatai Khan, the primarch of the Fifth Legion's White Scars.
And Corvus Corax, Primarch of the XIX Legion's Raven Guard, both of them.
Khan, the way Khan disappeared was that he was sucked into the Webway while chasing a Dark Eldar.
As for Klax, one day after the end of the Horus Heresy, he entered the Eye of Terror alone and never appeared again.
As he walked, Ling Heng arrived at the transmitter, continued to drill into the ground, and opened the hidden door.
The dusty instrument was started up, and after the circuit was fully unblocked, it began to transmit a distress signal outside the galaxy.
The languages of the Eldar, Humans, Tau, and even the Orks, things have come to this point anyway, as long as someone comes there is hope of being rescued.
At this point, Lin Heng walked into the sandstorm again. He had forgotten to leave some food for Caroline. God knew when the rescue would arrive if he passively waited for it.
If it was one or two months, even an Alpha-level psychic would not be able to go without food or water for such a long time.
On the way back, he continued to look for trivial information in the crystal.
He actually found some information about the Lion King and his army.
As a number of personnel can attest, the Dark Angels seem to be divided between loyal and rebellious factions.
Lin Heng noticed the key point here, although many Chaos Legions are also called rebel forces by some forces.
However, the Dark Angels mentioned in the crystal do not seem to be suspected of falling into Chaos.
Combined with the gossip about the war in Caliban, the home of the Lion King, it seems like an internal conflict between the two factions.
Many seem to believe that the Dark Angels are divided into two factions.
The action styles of the two factions are very different, as if one is hunting down the other.
But there is no way to know the specific details, I just feel that these dark angels are mysterious.
A considerable portion of the information is still from their own people. Many chapters that have cooperated with the Dark Angels have stated that the other side often disappears.
They simply don't listen to orders, as if they have multiple goals. Once they are completed or found, they will immediately leave the battle or alliance, and no matter how you ask them, they will not explain.
This surprised Lin Heng a little, so he carefully looked through the personnel configuration of the Dark Angels.
The Supreme Grand Master, also the Chapter Master, is Azrael; the Grand Master of the Librarian is Ezekiel; and the Grand Master of Priests is Safin.
However, in the end, as for the Grand Priest Mentor, there was also an Asmodai behind him. I didn’t know what the situation was but I kept it in mind.
Lin Heng seemed to have heard of many war group invasions in Comoros. The Dark Angels had once invaded, but they just looked around and then left immediately.
The situation inside was very complicated, and it was impossible to guess the general situation from just a few words. Anyway, after the various legions were split up, it was a mess.
He didn't want to spend too much time on these rumors. What he cared about most now was to find the Lion King so that he could move forward.
With a living Primarch as his backer, he had sufficient protection whether he wanted to retrieve the STC or search for the Death Army.
Speaking of the Death Army, the spirit provided by Engul also contained a lot of information about the other side.
Just as Lin Heng recognized that the Eldar were an arrogant race with no unity, even the Death Army, which possessed the power of the Death God, could not effectively unite all the Eldar forces.
The Bie-Tan and Us-Wei Ark Worlds were firmly opposed to joining the Death Army, while the Aratok Ark World was indifferent and watched from the sidelines.
The Sam-Han Ark World has many factions within it and is not united in terms of supporting the Death Army.
The only one that fully supports the Death Army is Yi Yangdeng Ark World.
This world was once the largest and most prosperous of the surviving Craftworlds.
However, while roaming the starry sea, they encountered a tentacle of the Tyranids - the Kraken Hive Fleet.
The entire Ark suffered an extinction-level blow, followed by several subsequent devastating crises.
Today, this Ark World has turned into a land of the dead, where there are basically more "dead" people than living people.
A large number of netherworld constructs were awakened to keep the broken ark floating among the galaxies.
It is because of the long-standing bond between them and the dead that they are able to understand the Death Army and then join it.
