【Time: -35.12.36】

Duanmu Huai had to admit that the Ultramarines were indeed efficient.

He didn't need to look for the blueprint of the Gray Knight's armor, it was in the library of the Tribunal, but Duan Muhuai replaced the logo inside with the logo of the Tribunal—well, to be precise, he was the one who served as the Lord of Destruction. God's sign. In this way, they will fight for their beliefs as believers of the God of Destruction, like any messenger of the gods.

Um? What? You say this method looks a lot like an evil god?

This is all a misunderstanding! You see, just like the Night Guard, they are just the Night Guard, not the Scarlet Letter... Ahem, you all understand.

After all, Duanmuhuai doesn't need them to praise themselves, they just need to kill something or burn something in the name of the Tribunal, and those sad souls destroyed by them will automatically be thrown into the God's Domain of the Tribunal of Annihilation World, becoming Part of the power of the Inquisition.

Well, no problem, that's what the Gray Knights are supposed to do anyway.

Guilliman's speed was very fast, and 5,000 Ultramarines who originally belonged to the think tanks quickly assembled. I have to say that when Duanmu Huai saw so many think tanks, he was also extremely moved.

"To be honest, I never thought there would be so many think tanks in the Ultramarines."

Duanmu Huai looked at Guilliman and expressed his emotion.

"If they weren't wearing blue armor, I would have thought it was Magnus' Thousand Sons."

"It's just a look."

Guilliman seemed very calm.

"The Ultramarine Corps itself is huge in number, so strictly speaking, five thousand think tanks are not too many."

"That's right, when you play hooligans, you talk about per capita. I really feel more and more cordial to you."

Duanmuhuai gave a thumbs up silently.

Duanmu Huai was not surprised that there were so many psykers in the Five Hundred Worlds. The Five Hundred Worlds was the most prosperous and most personal world in the entire empire. Naturally, the population here was also the largest. As the population increases, the probability of psykers appearing will also increase.

Just like krypton gold drawing cards, as long as you spend enough money, you can always draw enough rare cards. The same is true for psykers. The larger the population, the higher the probability of psykers appearing, and the greater the number. This is not surprising.

At present, these 5,000 think tanks are located in an auditorium in Cowes, which can accommodate 10,000 people, and this is the place where Duan Muhuai will give lectures to the think tanks. Duan Muhuai is not very worried about this. Rookie players talk about how to play dungeons, figure out the characteristics and weaknesses of monsters, and then what to do and what not to do when you beat the boss in the dungeon, as long as you explain clearly, they will take care of the rest.

Guilliman was naturally there, and he also wanted to hear what Duanmuhuai wanted to say. In fact, he was a little worried that Duanmuhuai would say something inappropriate. Worry about what could go wrong.

However, Duanmuhuai's first words almost gave Guilliman a heart attack.

"I think you all know it, so I'll say it again here now, listen up, the imperial truth is a lie."

It has to be said that Duanmuhuai's frank and honest words directly ignited the whole scene, and the Astartes stared at Duanmuhuai with wide-eyed surprise, as if they couldn't believe their ears. And Guilliman was equally astonished, he didn't know how to end it for a moment, but Duanmuhuai didn't care.

"Okay, don't look shocked, you are all psykers, don't tell me that you haven't felt the malice and curse from the subspace above Calth, maybe you have suspected it a long time ago, so I just Here it is made clear to you, yes, the truth of the Empire is a lie. There are indeed existences in this world beyond the scope of human cognition, and they have just almost caused an unimaginable disaster in Calth, and you will be in the It won't be long before we see them coming again with our own eyes."

Hearing this, Guilliman, who was sitting in the front row, clenched the armrest, but he didn't stand up. He almost understood what Duanmuhuai was thinking. Indeed, Lorgar's main fleet would arrive soon. At that time, they will face more unavoidable existences. In fact, when besieging the Word Bearers Vanguard, his subordinates have reported several times that the Word Bearers were distorted and transformed into some kind of existence that they could not understand. , and used very terrifying power to cause certain losses to the unprepared Ultramarines.

It was precisely because of this that Guilliman requested the assistance of the Inquisition. He admitted that the Nikaia meeting was a mistake, but the critique of the truth of the empire—well, as a Primarch, he certainly couldn't do such a treacherous thing.

But this doesn't mean Duanmu Huai dare not.

"Has the Emperor lied to you? Of course! Believe me, when you see the rebels, they will say the same. Personally don't care if they foolishly chose to rebel because they were tricked by the Emperor, but the main problem is not rebellion, but their alliance with the evil Chaos Bastards!"

Duanmu Huai knocked on the table.

"Listen, this is the problem. For you, the betrayal of the Empire may be a serious problem. But it is not, the evil chaos of the warp is the most serious problem. Some people may start thinking, using the sub-space It is a bad idea to destroy the empire with the power of space, so is it a good idea to use this evil force to protect the empire? Congratulations, at this moment you have been fooled by Chaos!"

Hearing this, Guilliman nodded. He could understand what Duanmuhuai meant. It was obvious that the Chaos God himself was harmful to the empire. Whether it was destroying or protecting, being associated with the empire represented a threat. On this point, Duanmuhuai seems very straightforward.

"So, Lord Inquisitor, do you mean that the evil existences in the subspace cannot be trusted? Even if they are on our side?"

Sure enough, someone asked suspiciously.

"Of course, just like the devils in myths and legends, the human beings who sign contracts with them will never end well. They will eventually be corrupted by chaos and become dirty and ugly monsters. Horus is like this now, or wait When Lorgar is here, you can go and see his mental state. They all think that they are doing the right thing. Horus believes that he has not succumbed to the evil god, but just used the power of the evil god of chaos to achieve his own goals and save the empire—— Amazing silliness and ego, and you might be able to watch how it all came together from a premium seat."

Having said that, Duanmuhuai glanced at the think tank who asked the question.

"Also, it's best not to have that ridiculous idea of ​​self-sacrifice, and maybe some of you will think 'just sacrificing my soul, it's worth saving the whole world', but I can assure you that even if you do Yes, and definitely nothing but unimaginable pain, these guys may indeed keep their promises, but definitely not in the way you expect. For example, there is a world where people suffer from radiation and mutations , you have chosen to make a deal with a certain dead smelly fat house, hoping that they can heal these suffering people at the price of sacrificing your soul. And the other party will indeed fulfill your request, it will spread the virus, and the people of that world Become mutated monsters that don’t know pain and are like zombies, so that they will no longer suffer from the pain of radiation mutation, and will not be sad about it... How? Your wish has been fulfilled, but Is this what you want to achieve?"

“……………………”

Hearing this, Guilliman's face sank, and those think tanks were also thoughtful.

At this moment, another think tank raised his hand and asked.

"So according to what you mean, these evil existences in the subspace have very deep malice towards human beings, but I don't understand...why do they do this?"

"Of course, this is part of our literacy. I'll start with the basics, but I won't tell you their names. You can call them brats, satyrs, nerds and retards."

"Why?"

"Because names are magical. In the subspace, as long as you know its name, it will sense it. For it, it's like hearing someone calling itself, and then they will come to have a look curiously. Some idiot is calling it, and you're done."

Having said this, Duanmuhuai pouted.

"Okay, then let's start from the beginning, first of all, let's start with the Old Sage..."

For Duanmuhuai, this is a popular history lesson, the beginning of the universe, the existence of the Old Sage, the Eldar, the Necrophobia and the Star God, and then an unimaginable war, all the troubles caused by the Eldar and their The aftermath of the pursuit of sensual pleasures led to the birth of a certain metamorphosis, which in turn awakened the consciousness that the Warp had been maliciously heaped, and gave birth to the evil god.

It has to be said that these not only stunned the think tank, but even Guilliman was astonished—to be honest, these science popularizations by Duanmuhuai are just background information for players, but for them it is like a bolt from the blue .

"...So, you mean, it is because of all this that they become this kind of existence?"

"That's right, the entire Milky Way was involved in a war of millions of years, which is completely incalculable, and more lives than stars in the sky died. Compared with the scale of this war, your so-called Great Crusade and the Dutch Ruth's Rebellion was nothing more than village fighting. Their dying anguish, wailing and cursing filled the Warp, turning it into such a filthy dump that you couldn't expect to recover from the stench of corruption. Isn’t a white lotus growing out of the trash can in the house?”

While talking, Duanmu Huai spread his hands.

"So...they are invincible?"

"If they were invincible, the entire galaxy would have been turned into their backyard long ago, but unfortunately they couldn't do it."

Duanmuhuai scoffed at such a stupid question.

"Listen well, these chaotic evil gods are indeed powerful, but they are not invincible. The biggest weakness of these guys is that although they can dominate in the subspace, they have no power at all in the real space. With a fairly solid barrier to the Warp, it's very difficult for them to influence reality on their own. So that's why they need disciples."

Duanmu Huai knocked on the table.

"They will confuse some people, and then let them serve themselves. Simply put, they will use various methods to carry out massacres, and perform some disgusting blasphemy rituals that make people sick to the stomach, and sacrifice these souls To blur the barrier between reality and the Warp, so that these guys can come out of the Warp and do whatever they want with the real world—that's what the Word Bearers and they were planning to do on Calth."

"I see."

Guilliman clenched his fists tightly and his eyes were burning with anger. He was also a little puzzled at first. Guilliman knew that the betrayal of the Word Bearers would definitely bring a huge blow to his legion. But in the final analysis, they are just a vanguard fleet. Taking ten thousand steps back, even if their unexpected surprise attack dealt a heavy blow to the Ultramarines, when the Ultramarines came back to their senses, they would definitely be able to completely wipe out Erebus and the others. His corrupt vanguard fleet.

So Guilliman didn't understand why Erebus was so confident, and now he understood. The Word Bearers don't just seek revenge, but use Calth to perform some sinister and dark rituals to summon twisted demons...

"Is there no way for us to completely stay away from these evil existences?"

At this time, another think tank asked, and everyone was staring at Duanmuhuai, who just shrugged his shoulders, looking very calm.

"The emperor has a plan, but unfortunately, now that Horus has rebelled, this plan has also come to an end, and the possibility of human beings being completely isolated from the subspace has disappeared. That's why I appear here, and You talk about this. Then you will be like the police, running around to fight against this evil. The human empire will inevitably have close contact with the demons of the warp and be threatened by them, and what you have done The only thing left to do is to eliminate them, fight them, and contain them."

Duanmuhuai said this, looking at the think tank in front of him.

"Listen, this isn't a war, it's not like you just wipe out the enemy and it's over. Of course, the Inquisition will give you the power to completely wipe out these warp bastards. Under the flames of the Inquisition, they won't have a chance to roll Return to subspace to resurrect, but will die completely, including the soul, there is no time to come back. So, will everything end? Of course not, think about it, it is like a crime, how many years have passed by human beings? Has the world completely eliminated crime? Ultramar is the most prosperous, most glorious, and most beautiful world in the empire, but it doesn't mean that there is no crime, right? "

"........."

Guilliman nodded silently. It is true that Ultramar is prosperous and peaceful, but it does not mean that there are no crimes. Otherwise, what are the mortal auxiliary army and security team under his command doing?

"Relax, it's really the same as fighting crime."

Sensing that the atmosphere at the scene was somewhat depressed, Duanmu Huai also spoke comfortingly.

"Like your world, it's impossible to completely eradicate crime, but we can make most people live peaceful, happy, and settled lives. Isn't that enough? There will always be people who go the wrong way and apologize for their stupidity It is meaningless to be angry, and it is impossible to solve the problem once and for all. No one can take shortcuts. We just need to do what we can. Human beings have developed like this until now. Maybe one day, we will be able to completely destroy the subspace, Eliminate these ugly Chaos bastards, but we can't do it now, so we can only do our best."

After Duanmu Huai finished speaking, everyone present fell into deep thinking.

"Okay, that's all for the theory."

Duanmu Huai took a sip of water, then took out a notebook.

"You are all Astartes, you are all think tanks, and you all know how to fight, so I won't teach you how to fight. Next, I will give a detailed introduction to the enemies you will face. Listen carefully Yes, this is the first-hand strategy."
