   Regarding Elderal's self-answering question, Selego didn't say anything more.

  The face in the clown mask turned to the other side.

  The eyes that contain infinite wisdom shine brightly.

  He looked into the distance.

  In the bowl-shaped hall, stands a giant metal column.

  After removing all kinds of complicated runes, there are also various generators and machinery connected.

  Those machines are humming, resonating with a special pulsation, like a perfect movement, and only musicians with superb artistic talent can play that perfect movement.

  The obscure runes on the surface of the giant metal pillar flickered continuously, vibrating with the rhythm of resonance.

  With every shine, a human hero returns.

  Things like this are inconceivable even at his level.

  The original rules of the universe have been broken.

   The barriers of time were also smashed into pieces.

  Space and time are his ravages.

  Now, not even life and death can stop him.

  The military power of mankind is being crazily improved under the control of his will.

   Is there anything else that can stop him?

  Under such circumstances, if Guilliman is not a god, then who can be called a god?

   Aren't the Imperial armies that fought in his name a symbol of his destructive power?

  Can these reincarnated heroes be different from those demons who have been blessed by the gods and resurrected?

   At most, one side will rely on the special mechanism of the subspace, and the other side will find another way.

   "When will the Holy Emperor go to rescue the Goddess of Life?" Eldrar asked a question that many spiritual prophets were concerned about.

Selego surrendered to Guilliman at the beginning and presented the black library that preserved the knowledge of the ancient saints. One of the conditions was that Guilliman could save the Goddess of Life of the Spirit Race, etc., and be taken away during the Great Fall, or thrown God in pieces.

  Selego hasn't spoken yet.

  Another voice came from behind.

   "When the empire's army dedicated to fighting subspace creatures takes shape, it will be the best time to save the goddess of life, Isha. According to the current progress, we will be able to do this soon."

  Silego and Eldrar turned around and followed the sound.

  A noble face appeared in their eyes.

   It is the Holy Emperor of the Human Empire, Guilliman.

  The Nether Dragon was crouching on his broad shoulders.

   Very lazy, like a pet.

   It is hard to imagine that the **** who once claimed to be the **** of the real universe has now become a pet.

  Behind him are the captain of the guard who is responsible for his safety-Sicarius and the leader of the imperial army-Valano.

   "Your Majesty."

   "Your Majesty."

   "No need to be too polite." Guilliman waved his hand, indicating that they don't need too much courtesy. He walked to Selego's side, stood on the railing of the high platform, and looked at the densely packed, like a hive-like training cabin.

  The number of heroes recalled by the Empire is astonishing.

   "Your Majesty, why are you suddenly free to come here today?" Selego said respectfully, "Could it be that new research results have come out."

  Guilliman shook his head.

"There are no new achievements, but the empire's research on life and death is still being perfected. Subspace is mysterious and unpredictable. It is very difficult to completely grasp life and death and establish a reincarnation or dormant system belonging to the empire. "

  After a person dies, the soul will return to the subspace.

  If you have a **** you believe in, you will go to the realm where the **** is.

  If there is no **** to believe in, you can only wander in the subspace, hunted or torn apart by other demons.

  Many people will feel that the former is much better than the latter.

   At least you don't have to face those cruel, bloodthirsty warp creatures alone.

   But the result is the same.

  As long as Chaos Gods are born, those so-called gods will be swallowed up, and even those dead who belong to the realm of gods will become food or slaves.

"Breaking the boundary between life and death is not so easy. There are too many secrets hidden in the vast universe, and even gods cannot understand them all." Selego said: "Your Majesty definitely don't need to worry so much. The mighty power of the empire is enough to protect thousands of sons." People live in this dark universe."

"Empires will rise, and then they will fall." Guilliman supported the railing with his hands, and looked at the training cabins, "The more I understand the subspace, the more disturbed and uneasy I become. Chaos is the original force of the universe. It may also be the key to the cycle of the universe. Everything about us is meaningless on a long time scale, and the chaos is there. When you rise up, they recede into corners that we can't see."

"When we decline, they will explode like corruption from the inside out, reducing a prosperous, prosperous country to miserable ruins. Let those poor people suffer. The only way for an empire to build a Only a system that can circulate itself can avoid being harmed."

   "Your Majesty will definitely succeed." Said Selego.

"I'm working on it." Guilliman turned around, "Speaking of the gods of the Eldar, maybe we should do another thing first. The goddess of life, Isa, is in the domain of the father of the plague, and it is said that she is still locked in his If you want to save her, you have to face the father of the plague. Can you face a **** of chaos?"

  Selego shook his head.

   "I can't do it. The father of the plague has a plague that can kill the gods in his eyes. I will die."

   "It's too difficult to save Isa. If we act rashly, we will suffer heavy casualties and even be devastated. Maybe we should call back another Eldar **** first."

"Who?"

   "The God of Death of the Spirit Race."

  Guilliman's words made Selego and Eldrar look at each other.

   Both of them could see the shock in each other's eyes.

  The matter of resurrecting the **** of death of the spirit race was once the most important thing for the spirit race.

   To this end, the Death God Army was also prepared to unite the Death God believers in the Dark Eldar, Ark Eldar, Harlequin Eldar, and Wild Eldar.

   It can be said that the elite gathered, and it was the first union of the spirit race after the catastrophe of the catastrophe.

   The unborn **** of death - Jena is seen as the last hope of the dying Eldar.

  Death believers believe that when the souls of the entire race are absorbed into the infinite loop, all the arkworlds will unite into a huge infinite loop, thus merging all the souls of the Eldar to form a new force.

   This force is death.

   Reaper will drive Slaanesh out, winning.

  Originally, the prophets of the Eldar tried to carry out a large-scale ceremony to revive the **** of death in advance.

  However, in order to avoid the fate of all the destruction of the Eldar, the prophets put part of the sacrifices on humans.

  Finally thwarted by fighters from the Deathwatch Chapter.

  The empire will not allow the lives of its own people to resurrect a foreign god.

   Then the Death God Army was established, and they proposed the seventh way.

   That is, a road other than the way of foresight, the way of the warrior, the way of the commander, the way of the craftsman, the way of sailing, and the way of wandering.

  During their efforts, by sacrificing all the souls in the infinite loop of Arkworld-Beyetan, Death Incarnate-Inkahn was awakened.

  Inkahn is the first step of the Seventh Way, a way to awaken Death without sacrificing all Eldar.

   All that remains is to collect five Crone's Swords, and the Reaper I can be completely born.

   They have recovered four, the Spear of Twilight used by Prince Yrel, the Soul Sword of Inkahn the Incarnation of Death, the Silent Screaming Sword of the Visionary, and the Sorrowful Sword of Everan.

  The last sword was taken away by Shalaxi, the Keeper of Secrets under Slaanesh, the champion of the fighters, and the disaster of hell.

   This demon also placed the last sword in the palace of Slaanesh.

   Let the Death God Army fall into an endless loop.

  Why did they wake up Death? For fear that Slaanesh would eat them all.

   The last sword needed to awaken Reaper may now be in the palace of Slaanesh.

   They have to defeat Slaanesh to get the last sword.

   Defeating Slaanesh requires the help of Reaper.

   But if you want to get the help of Death God, you must first defeat Slaanesh and get the last sword.

  This incident successfully made the Death Army a joke.

  They will never get the last sword that awakens Death.

   "We have no way to get the last sword." Eldrar said: "Without the last sword, there is no way for Jena to be resurrected."

   "Do you want to sacrifice all the Eldar to resurrect the God of Death?" Selego asked with some vigilance.

  As soon as these words came out, Elderal also became nervous.

  It is really too easy for the current empire to destroy the Eldar.

  The strengths of the two sides are no longer at the same level.

"Don't think that way." Guilliman said: "You are allies of the empire, and I will never make fun of your lives. But before that, we have to explain clearly what a **** is? The empire's exploration team has already Wandering in the universe, they brought back a lot of incredible knowledge and insights, allowing the empire to fully understand the subtle connection between the subspace and the universe."

   "My family's cognition of subspace is even older, Your Majesty, we are very clear about the existence of God." Selego said.

"No, you don't know." Guilliman said, while reaching out to let the Nether Dragon stand on his hand, "The definition of the gods is not that simple, it involves the cycle of the universe. The gods promote It breaks the cycle of the universe, so that life and death, destruction, and birth can be repeated, and the cycle can be endless. The birth and destruction of a universe is doomed, and even the human empire, I don’t think it can last forever.”

"Bringing the topic back to the gods, the task of the gods is to sort out the emotions of the creatures of the universe, transform them into fertile soil, and give birth to a new universe from them. Gods will disappear with the decline of their civilizations, and complete a Cycle. When the universe is born again, civilization will repeat itself, and the gods will appear again. They will absorb some power and knowledge from the destruction of the previous universe, undergo some changes, and become more suitable for the universe of the heavens, so that The universe of the heavens has become more prosperous."

"I call that immeasurable length of time the early days of the universe. This is a guess made by me and the Dark Watcher combined with the situation of each universe, and even the knowledge left by the Old Sage. That period of time has passed It is so long ago that even time is no longer coherent. Everything is still being explored, the rules of each universe are full of mistakes and omissions, and there is not so much filth in the subspace."

"The rules of the early universe were simple, just like when life was just born, they were just small molecular organic substances such as amino acids and fatty acids. Life can become complex, complete, and even give birth to life after billions of years of evolution. The evolution of the universe It will be even longer, and it is impossible to calculate with a time scale. After all, the lifespan of a universe can be as long as tens of billions of years, or even hundreds of billions of years, trillions of years. Such a long time scale is beyond our imagination. .”

"Of course, the early universe may not be able to achieve such a long life cycle. Their structure is not stable enough, and the physical rules are not perfect enough to form a curtain between them and the subspace. Perhaps a subspace storm can destroy them. The universe will Died like a biological body, the corpse was digested in the subspace, turned into pure energy, and after an immeasurable time, it was bred again. The new universe inherits a string of data left by the old universe, just like the biological evolution. Generally, the fittest survives again and again, evolving a more complex and stable physical structure with a longer life cycle."

"The instability of the subspace can destroy the universe and bring it to an end quickly. However, the instability of the subspace can also bring some benefits, that is, it can mobilize more primitive energy in the emotions of living organisms, allowing them to easily possess all kinds of extraordinary God, this concept was born at this time, faith is like those civilizations spit out glue, the gods rely on faith to take shape in the subspace, helping civilization to continue to exist in the subspace storms that sometimes set off, so that The universe can last much longer."

"The subspace curtain in the early days of the universe was composed of the gods and the simple laws of the real universe. This combination allowed the universe to get a longer time, and the more data it accumulated, the more complete it evolved. I guess in this During this period, many civilizations that use psychic energy will definitely be born, and pure technological civilizations do not yet exist. Because technological civilizations require complex social cooperation and maintain a research mentality for the universe. These early civilizations are too easy because subspace Leverage, people who have been trained can completely use the subspace to accomplish things that can only be done by groups, and they have no idea of ​​cooperation at all, just like Africa, which is too rich in products, because there is no shortage of food, they cannot build a more prosperous and advanced civilization .”

"As time goes by, civilization's taming of the power of the subspace has made the universe longer, the universe has evolved for a longer period of time, accumulated more data, and left more legacy to the newborn universe. Those universes have already known how to go in the future since the birth of the singularity! Just like when babies are conceived, they know that they will grow various organs and arms. They will no longer start from a single molecule and go through a series of Only after trial and error can a complete body be obtained. This is because they have inherited the evolutionary achievements of their ancestors, and the evolution of the universe is also the same. From the moment they were born, they have evolved according to the path that has been explored countless times, allowing themselves to able to exist independently and stably."

"The birth of gods has become more and more perfect. They are attached to those civilizations, and become stronger and wiser with the strength of civilizations. In order to exist more stably, the universe has even evolved priesthoods, **** positions, godheads, etc. Things, use the priesthood to attract those powerful enough individuals or create gods who live with that priesthood, let them absorb the beliefs of the entire universe civilization, stabilize the space-time structure, and prevent the universe from being destroyed by the destruction storm."

"At this stage, the so-called omniscients were also born. The problem is that everything has its own limitations. The feudal imperial power stabilized the political structure, allowing the slave civilization to enter the accumulation stage and gain more productivity. In the later period, feudal imperial power became an obstacle to the progress of civilization and needed to be removed. Capitalism promoted the development of industrialization, but their monopoly also became an obstacle to new technology."

"The power of the gods makes civilization and the structure of the universe stable, and has enough time to evolve sufficiently complex physical rules to form a barrier between reality and illusion, allowing them to exist stably. The existence of physical barriers makes the role of gods begin to diminish , and even become an obstacle to the advancement of civilization. If the gods want to survive, they must have enough believers. If the creatures forget them, they will perish. Without worship, they will collapse into nothingness, become mindless emotional vortexes, and if they become destabilized, they die"

"Then they will try their best to do things, and try to make their believers launch various sacrifices or excessive worship. Destroy physical barriers so that they will not be forgotten. There are also different differences between civilizations, and some people pay too much attention to it. Psychic power, without social division of labor and cooperation, a civilization that relies on individuals to rule the roost absolutely cannot accept that they will be eliminated. They will be eliminated by those races that they once looked down upon and have no spiritual talent. With the intensification of various contradictions, the battle of civilizations broke out. Out of fear, the extraordinary civilization on the verge of being eliminated launched a war against the vigorous social cooperation technological civilization. The gods are also unwilling to perish and be swept into the garbage dump, and they are also full of hatred."

   "Such a theory is simply shocking." Selego couldn't hide the shocked look on his face. Humans' research on subspace and gods has surpassed the spirit race itself.

  They can no longer guide humans.

  Guilliman did not show any pride.

   The reverence of a **** is no longer something to show off to him.

  With the improvement of his vision, he no longer has the same awe as before for the existence of gods.

  He even felt sorry for them.

  As the support system says, they're just a bunch of wretches trying in vain to defend a past that's already doomed to be abandoned.

   "Are these helpful for resurrecting Jena?" Eldelal asked anxiously, to be honest, he didn't understand.

  What Guilliman said was too profound, involving the true nature of the gods.

   Not something he could understand.

   "Of course, this universe is not the first time it was born, nor is it the first time it repeats. The essence of the gods is just belief and the needs of the universe. If you have mastered the principles of creating them, are you worried that you can't reproduce them?"

   Working hard to update
