Half an hour later.
The slender iron man slowly walked into the research facility and entered the core area with his scepter in hand.
After all four gates and inspections were passed, the scholar saw the Iron Master sitting at the table playing with a ring model.
But before the scholar wanted to explain how he crushed Magnus’s soul, Vanessa, with golden light in her eyes, walked into the room first and spoke: “I have seen that Rubik’s Cube, and it is not easy to deal with. thing."
"Scholar!" Qin Mo heard the emperor's voice, turned around from the chair with pulleys, and used his feet to move the chair closer to Iron Man and the emperor, "You crushed Magnus's soul, that bastard wanted to There will definitely be a price to pay for regrouping, but at least we won't see these two bastards Carlos and Magnus at the same time."
"This is my mission." The scholar acted very calmly and bowed.
The emperor waited quietly for Qin Mo to finish praising the scholar, and then brought the topic down to business: "Tell me about the Rubik's Cube."
The scholar raised his hand, and the magic weapon appeared in its living metal palm.
It is an evil-looking thing, full of ferocious and twisted words. At first glance, there is nothing between those words, but if you stare at it for a long time, you will see the ferocious flowing faces in the twisted words. .
"What is this?" Qin Mo picked up the Rubik's Cube and looked at it carefully. Of course he couldn't understand what it was.
Scholars have already figured out the function of the Rubik's Cube through the subspace entity. In fact, it already knew what it was when it came into contact with the Rubik's Cube, and the verification again was just out of Iron Man's rigorous instinct.
However, the emperor seemed to know more about this Rubik's Cube. He raised his hand to bind the Rubik's Cube in his hand and explained calmly: "This is something I discovered in the prehistory of Terra. It is a certain psychic technology that is extremely powerful." The barracks of the race.”
"Don't get me wrong, this does not refer to the kind of barracks used to station troops, but a barracks that can continuously generate troops on its own. As long as it exists and operates, it can continuously release soldiers."
"What an advanced creation."
Chapter 476: Eighteen Layers of Hell
"A barracks that generates its own troops?" Qin Mo didn't understand what he meant for a while.
"It can extract the souls in the subspace, condense and transform them into something similar to the essence of living things, and then transport them out of the box. This is equivalent to having an inexhaustible supply of soldiers."
"And its use of the soul is not as simple as transferring the soul into a box. The transformation of spiritual energy technology and the various use of spiritual energy it has undergone are unprecedented and unprecedented, so it is conceivable that the creation of It should be the Old One."
The Emperor explained his understanding and speculation about the Rubik's Cube.
However, Qin Mo didn't think it was something from the Ancient Sages because it looked too evil and didn't look like something created by the White Lotus race like the Ancient Sages.
The Emperor was also aware of this, and he explained: "I found it when I was slaying some prehistoric Chaos Shamans. This cube has been corrupted by the power of Chaos, just like those corrupted by the Word Bearers in the Dead Realm. Like the Black Stone, it is now an evil creation, malicious from the warp."
The Dark Gods have existed in both the past and the future since the moment of their creation.
The Emperor said that the Rubik's Cube was found in the prehistoric stage of mankind. Apparently the power of Chaos was already eroding the real universe at that time.
"So what's the use of it?" Qin Mo sat down and asked.
"Originally it would create psychic soldiers, but now it can only be used to create demons. Its principle is similar to how the Chaos Gods in the subspace created demons." The Emperor looked at the Rubik's Cube, and this thing reminded him of Many past events, "As long as it is not sealed, it will continue to release demons into the real universe."
Qin Mo was silent.
This Rubik's Cube is simply a subspace artifact.
No wonder Magnus left it behind.
No wonder the Emperor calls it "the malice of the Warp."
The ability to shape souls alone is beyond the imagination of any species today, but after being twisted, they can only shape demon souls.
"As for the method of sealing it..." The emperor put his hand on the Rubik's Cube and twisted it, and a projection was displayed.
Qin Mo saw Gray, Caldo Diego, Calga, Wolf Lord Sven Bloodhowl, and Creed on the projection.
"It means to find the people it wants, and then send them into the Rubik's Cube, so that they can block the demons who are trying to get out of the Rubik's Cube at all costs." The Emperor said.
The Emperor then used his spiritual energy to create an image, showing Qin Mo the inner world of the Rubik's Cube.
There are a total of eighteen layers in the Rubik's Cube. The first layer is the primitive forest, the second layer is the Stone Age city, and the third layer is the human settlement in the Bronze Age...
In short, the higher the level, the more advanced the world displayed.
The eighteenth floor is even a space city, extremely prosperous, like a huge space city in the dark technological age of mankind, but there are no residents inside.
What the emperor showed was the scene inside the Rubik's Cube at this time, so when he zoomed in and approached the space city, Qin Mo could see that extremely terrifying scene.
Countless demonic armies are attacking the portal inside the space city. They give people the impression... like standing on orbit and looking down at the army of Tyranid war beasts.
There are nearly a hundred humans near the portal.
These people are all dressed up differently.
There are primitive people who wear animal skins, and there are savages who are covered in hair without any shame.
There are knights in medieval plate armor, and people dressed like Egyptians and Romans.
An infantry squad armed with Garand rifles, and a team composed of blond men and women wearing black military uniforms armed with MG43 machine guns.
There are even some lobster soldiers holding flintlock guns and wearing red uniforms, as well as Space Marines from the 30k Great Crusade...
"Are these the people you sent in to intercept the demon?" Qin Mo couldn't believe that those savages could actually kill the huge demon.
"Yes." The emperor nodded, "I have to find a way to seal it."
"How many people did you send in?"
"Many. There may be hundreds of thousands...Egyptians, Romans, and even a Han Dynasty general named Pu in ancient Terra...soldiers during the World War..."
Hearing this, Qin Mo raised his head and asked, "General Pu? Is he missing because you sent him into the Rubik's Cube?"
"Unfortunately, this general and his army were selected, so they entered the Rubik's Cube together." The emperor's eyes fell on the image inside the Rubik's Cube.
A man wearing a Han Dynasty general's armor was holding a ring-headed sword to hack away at demons. He seemed to have a good relationship with a female savage. When he was surrounded, the female savage rode an extremely huge wild boar and rushed into the demon army. Come to his rescue.
The emperor said there were hundreds of thousands of people, but Qin Mo didn't see that many. There were only humans on the 18th floor of the Rubik's Cube, and there were less than a hundred in total.
The emperor saw Qin Mo's doubts and explained: "Some people who are not determined will collapse after entering the Rubik's Cube for thousands of years, and then be assimilated into a member of the devil, so until now these are the only ones left. ”
Then the Emperor said something sad.
The fate of those in the Rubik's Cube is to fight to the death.
Can't leave the Rubik's Cube.
Can't grow old, can't die.
After death in battle, you will be resurrected, but after resurrection you will lose part of your humanity, and over time you will become a walking zombie or directly degenerate into a member of the devil.
The options used by the ancient saint race to adjust the speed and quality of soldiers produced by the Rubik's Cube barracks have now been corrupted into a program of trading souls for power. The people inside kill demons in exchange for increased power.
While the emperor was telling about the Rubik's Cube, Qin Mo observed the battle inside.
The demon army was repelled by the humans, and then the survivors collapsed on the ground, resting and eating among the demon corpses.
The red-clad lobster soldiers loaded their flintlocks with oversized magazines containing hundreds of lead bullets.
Crusaders dressed as crusaders walked among the corpses of demons holding crosses, pulling the corpses to burn.
The Space Marines of the 30 stood on the daemon corpses and preached to the crowd, cheering them on with Imperial truth.
Pu Jiangjun and the only remaining soldier sat next to the wild boar, while the female wild woman cooked hot food for the wild boar and his companions.
These people have a common emotion - numbness and suffering.
"What's the difference between this and hell?" Qin Mo said with a chill on his face, "This is a hell where they will never be reincarnated... They can't even die if they want to..."
After speaking, Qin Mo looked at the emperor.
He suspected that the Emperor deliberately kept the cube so that it fell into Magnus' hands.
Now he knows why the Dead Realm has never been lost, but there are Martian soldier demons that have been spawned to help Huron fight. Those demons were all transferred out of the Rubik's Cube by Magnus. Since this Rubik's Cube can be corroded Then it must be affected by external spiritual energy.
Perhaps Magnus had a way of toying with the human warriors inside, allowing some demons to slip through their defenses.
Chapter 477 Star Gate
"The Cube was lost after the Horus Heresy. I didn't realize it was Magnus who took possession of it."
The emperor said and placed the Rubik's Cube in front of Qin Mo. It was obvious that the problem of the Rubik's Cube was left to him.
Qin Mo had to think of a way to deal with this ghost that could spawn demons. He first thought of a simple and crude way: "If I bury it in a place where there is an Exorcist Death Zone, will it be fine?"
"Maybe, but it's best not to get this thing out of control. If you just put it somewhere, sooner or later the demon inside it will kill all the guardians inside, and then after tens of thousands of years, there will always be The probability of someone bringing it out." The Emperor said.
Qin Mo had to find another way: "What about destroying it?"
"If this Old Ones creation could be destroyed, it would not eventually fall into the hands of Magnus." The Emperor shook his head.
Qin Mo was a little confused, rubbed his face, and suddenly felt that he had encountered the biggest crisis in history.
But having said that, if the Rubik's Cube was really created by the Ancient Ones, then it would have been used in the Battle of Heaven.
The C'tan and Necron must have dealt with something similar.
However, the Necrons are not as good as before. Almost all the Star Gods have been turned into fragments. It may not be easy to find a way to crack the Rubik's Cube.
After thinking for a moment, Qin Mo had to change his mind and think about using other methods to crack the Rubik's Cube, or finding a way to purify it, or using the technology of the real universe to dispose of it... But this is not based on the real universe after all. , even the material of the Rubik's Cube cannot be perceived.
"Leave this thing to me." The silent scholar suddenly asked.
"What do you say? Do you have any idea?" Qin Mo handed this square creation with extremely high subspace concentration to the scholar. Although he had not yet agreed, he had already handed it over to more professional people to handle it.
As a psychic ironman, Scholar is always dealing with psychic matters.
Adding a Warp Shadow to an awakened psionic child in the sector, blocking its connection to the Warp.
Or purify the corruption left by the demons at Tyron's Gate and completely destroy the wreckage of the demon warship.
It's like...
The Nicaea Conference disbanded the think tanks of each legion. However, after things like subspace corrosion occurred, legions with psychic talents were better able to deal with emergencies, and think tanks were not only among war groups like the Black Templars, It is ubiquitous outside, which also shows that the best way to deal with subspace is subspace.
Scholars are such an iron man with a great mission and role.
"Believe in your creation." The scholar stuffed the Rubik's Cube into the storage module on his arm. "I, an iron man who specializes in dealing with psychic powers, have already thought of a good way."
"What can I do?" Although the Emperor's pure human will showed signs of escaping, he was also concerned about whether the Rubik's Cube would be destroyed or continue to spawn demons.
The scholar didn't answer. It bowed and said goodbye, then turned and left the research facility.
The emperor glanced at the scholar's back, then turned to look at Qin Mo, worried, thinking that he might as well find a way to deal with the Rubik's Cube on his own.
But Qin Mo was not so worried. He had full confidence in scholars.
He no longer even thought about the Rubik's Cube, and motioned to the Emperor to come forward and observe his new invention.
