Chapter 409: Echoes of Courage and Loyalty (VIII) Concept of the Webway, Doubts About Identity

Galvin and others have entered the webway, while the meeting on the track is still going on.

Tibers and others thought that there were enough mysteries about this chapter, but as they interrogated the sons of Guilliman, they found that more mysteries were still emerging.

"What? Can't find his list?" Tibers glanced at the scholar Chasov behind him, who took the opportunity to look through the records stored in the Imperial Administrative Council.

However, after a few minutes of silence, the scholar from the Inquisition also shook his head at the admiral of the Grey Knights Fleet.

"There is no name of Appius! No!" Sevens reiterated in a solemn tone.

At this point in the video conference, he no longer cared about the reputation of a mere sub-group, but the many doubts and shadow-like threats buried in this chapter became the hidden dangers that he urgently needed to eliminate after his genetic father passed the Ultramar Earthly Rule to him.

Adjutant Sura also gave additional explanations to everyone:

"We have checked the existing data of the regiment. In the past three hundred years, no, one thousand years, there has never been a monk named Appius in the personnel appointments of the Son of Guilliman in the Ultramarines Mother Corps and the data reports of various battles and battles."

"Is that something we made up?" Tiberus laughed angrily, but the Purifier Turab on the other side of the video had a solemn expression and did not speak.

Just now, he personally participated in Adjutant Sura's data check on the Ultramarines on the battleship. With his full observation of Adjutant Sura's operation, he could serve as a witness for the sincerity of these Ultramarines.

And the third captain of the Ultramarines did not refute the intentions of the Grey Knights, nor did he make any attempts to test the authenticity of the data sent by Calvin from underground.

The core ruler of Ultramar just shook his head seriously at Tibers, and then said:

"No, this just proves that there are more unsolved cases that we don't know about in this war group..."

--

"The Webway is not a fixed spatial concept."

This is what Nicholas, the captain of the Imperial Guards, who followed Calvin into the Webway, said, and he has never really set foot on this land where his predecessors and comrades fought.

The description of the "Webway" he proposed also came from the survivors of the Webway War thousands of years ago, and none of the members of these ancient "Ten Thousands" have survived to this day.

Most of them have passed away with the long war, and a few "lucky ones" are buried in the sacred dreadnought armor.

Perhaps the technology of the Throne Court is enough to save them from the inhuman torture of ordinary dreadnought armor, but under the endless wear and tear of time, how to maintain humanity and reason is still a difficult dilemma. In particular, the injuries suffered by some of them are not simply on the flesh, and the spiritual curse left by the battle with the warp demons is a long-term torture for them.

Therefore, these holy fearless still cannot avoid the fate of long-term sleep, and they are only stationed in the core area of ​​the palace area for a minimum of 100 years.

The guards of the imperial army respect these predecessors and will not stop them from continuing their mission. But in order to save the lives of these loyalists as much as possible, the new generation of "Ten Thousand Men" also established unwritten rules after comprehensive consideration, namely:

The holy fearless only maintains a minimum number of awakening quotas, which are replaced every 100 years;

The rest of them are in hibernation and cannot be awakened except in major battles and special moments.

Therefore, the information Nicholas gave to Calvin is still not accurate and detailed enough, and if a more precise and accurate interpretation of this concept is needed, it is better to say that with the current technology and cognitive ability of human beings, it is not enough to truly understand and grasp the true face of the "Webway", the ancient saint's creation.

Because the ancient saints are different from humans, they naturally have a unique sense that only a few chosen people among humans:

"immortals" have-time.

In the eyes of the Imperial Guards and Grey Knights, led by Nicholas and Golden, the webway is more like the entrance to a huge system that ignores the concept of space.

The moment they stepped into the ancient portal, they all felt that their existence was shrinking endlessly, and the stone building in front of them, which was already unusually tall, became even taller and grander, until the edge of the vision could not contain it.

The huge gap and the conflict of senses made these powerful angels feel confused, and the feeling of vomiting and weightlessness reached the threshold of the body in an instant, causing the servos on their power armor to issue sharp warnings.

However, this abnormality only lasted for a few minutes under the spontaneous adjustment of body functions and the hormones automatically injected by the power armor. The self-protection ability of the brain made them spontaneously shut down some senses in the body, and the high concentration of hormones flowing in the blood vessels quickly adjusted their state.

After entering the webway, the Imperial Guards and the Templars supported each other to stand up again, carefully observing the surrounding scenery.

Although the sensory confusion before was painful, it at least allowed them to truly experience the magic of the webway, and from this they could know that even the smallest webway entrance was enough to allow objects as large as planets to pass through.

The space and mass of the real universe did not apply here. At least according to the operating rules of the webway, it did not have any specific mass requirements for individuals entering and leaving it.

And the Primarchs were different from them.

This kind of perception caused by senses becomes more complex and three-dimensional in Calvin. The more "rich" perception brought by his soul characteristics has one more dimension than the natives around him, that is, time.

So the details that can be "seen" in his eyes are richer than those of the Imperial Guards and the Grey Knights.

What is the webway? Calvin did not have a specific understanding before entering.

But the moment he stepped into this portal, he knew from the countless cracks in time and space that he passed through at high speed that this was a dimension in the real universe that was forcibly twisted into a "magic cube" by the unknown great existence with boundless power.

Yes, the so-called webway in Calvin's eyes is like a huge magic cube of unknown order, extremely pure, changing in real time.

The space that unfolds in three dimensions and the time of the fourth dimension in the real universe are meaningless here. They cannot bind the unknown existence, so they can only be easily twisted and rewritten under the manipulation of the latter.

The space and time that were originally flattened were like a thick tapestry with no visible edges, and some of their "veins and threads" were easily picked up by those beings and twisted into a ball above the entire plane.

Yes, this is the webway, and although these have been stripped from the real universe, there are still some threads (pipes) that are deeply rooted in various locations in the real universe and are interconnected. This is the original purpose that the beings who created this miracle in front of them wanted to achieve.

In front of Calvin is such a complex and twisted existence. And a basic requirement for "driving" this huge tool is that you must first have eyes and "hands" that transcend time and space.

The former is enough to allow Calvin to see through the complex space-time environment here, so that he will not be confused by the countless tangled spaces of the webway;

The latter means that only by interfering with "time" or accurately grasping the rules of space change here can you find the place you want to reach in the webway.

And "coincidentally", Calvin has both of these two prerequisites that are almost impossible for humans to exist.

Both conditions come from his special soul and his transcendence of the universe, and especially the latter. Calvin's soul of "all people return to one" is like a lead-filled sieve in front of this huge magic that changes every moment. It can always cast the number it wants in endless possibilities, and thus find the path it wants.

So the Primarch fell into a strange silence in front of the Guards and the Templars, and then at a certain moment, it seemed to trigger a certain condition.

In the last second, the Primarch still had his eyes slightly closed as if he was in meditation, and in the next second, the Primarch suddenly opened his eyes, turned his head and said to the people behind him:

"Let's go."

Then he took the lead and disappeared in the transparent space in front of him,

Update, and there are only a few dozen monthly tickets left to make it whole. Considering that I have written 70,000 words this month, I shamelessly ask for votes from everyone, and the deadline is 12 o'clock. Thank you!
