Chapter 383 Something is wrong when entering the vault
As the Grey Knight fell to the ground again, Lin Heng's training came to an end. All 16 people, including the team leader, had tasted defeat.
Whether in combat skills or in the competition of psychic abilities, Lin Heng's growth has reached a level that they all look up to, especially the three warriors who had taught him in the past. Their inner surprise was clearly revealed on their unchanging faces.
Fortunately, the helmet was covering his face. If the team leader had seen it, he would have to stay in the confinement room for several months before going out on any mission.
Lin Heng felt the changes in his body. During the battle, in addition to improving his combat skills, he also learned more psychic skills in various series.
When the leader of the Grey Knights saw that the other party had mastered the 'Void Rift' in just three hours, his attitude towards Lin Heng became more subtle.
"I heard from my battle brothers that your energy level was still at the Ita level when we last met, which was neither high nor low and not worth noting at all.
And now... even if it's a Gamma level, you're still in the middle. This kind of growth is unheard of and unseen before."
The leader of the Grey Knights said this while stroking the rough Tarot cards. However, as the psychic energy flowed, the cards did not automatically appear, which did not even count as a divination failure.
Everyone noticed the details. After a moment of silence, the team leader said calmly:
"I don't know what you've been through. I can't find out even a little bit with my ability. This makes me curious and hesitant.
After the vault incident is over, I hope you can come with us to the secret base of the Inquisition and perform a divination ceremony with other colleagues.
I really hope to get help from the great mentors. They will surely have more standard solutions. I still have too little grasp of the unknown."
Lin Heng glanced at everyone and thought to himself that it would be better if you never knew my situation. Things have come to this point and it is a situation where if you talk about it, you will be affected by cause and effect.
The situation is becoming more and more complicated. Even the emperor himself is overwhelmed and unable to show his spirit in time. If other people get involved, who knows if they will be seduced by the evil god and their minds will be confused, so that they will become a time bomb around him.
"Then it would be best if you could call your Supreme Grand Master. I would feel at ease with him."
Although each of the Grey Knights is determined and will not be bewitched by the evil god, strength is paramount and their lives are still fragile in front of the evil god.
However, the Chapter Master, also known as the Supreme Grand Master, is different. This kind of person must be the epitome of both physical and magical cultivation. It can be said that all of them can be called little primarchs.
Coupled with his identity as a Grey Knight, he is even more capable of investigating the situation behind Lin Heng than ordinary think tanks.
The other party will definitely be able to break down and find out just the tip of the iceberg that can be revealed in the scattered information without data in the subspace.
However, when Lin Heng noticed that the Grey Knights were looking at each other, he knew that there might be something wrong with their Chapter Leader.
"The great Cardo Diego, the current Supreme Grand Master of the Grey Knights Chapter, has gone missing... It's not quite accurate to say he's gone missing. The Mentor Council can still contact him, but we can no longer establish contact with him in real space."
Lin Heng pondered the underlying meaning and probably understood what the leader wanted to express, but when he really thought of the answer, he was shocked beyond words.
"You mean.. you mean.. he's in 'that' place?"
"Yes, he is in the warp. Although he is still alive, he cannot return. The demons are always hunting him, and the Supreme Grand Master is also hunting the demons."
Lin Heng felt a little dry in the mouth. To survive in the damn subspace, not being corrupted by chaos and being able to keep in touch through psychic energy, one must be very cruel to survive in it.
Just as Lin Heng was thinking, Belvis came forward and handed him an ancient book, but when he saw the name, he got goosebumps.
"The Imperial Handbook... I'm no longer a rookie, so I don't need this thing anymore."
It’s not that Lin Heng doesn’t need it, it’s that the original manual was possessed by the evil god, and now seeing this thing is like a snake in the cup of shadow.
Belvis didn't say anything, he just raised his hand and threw it over to him. Lin Heng had no choice but to catch it and flip through two pages before he discovered that the content inside was much more valuable than before.
"This is the latest revised manual circulated within the Inquisition. It contains hundreds of Alpha-level war zones, the locations of Orks, Eldar, Chaos, and other forces, as well as the astropathic beacons of major planets.
Most importantly, this is a holy relic blessed by the Grey Knights, which can minimize the side effects of psychic backlash, but it is not without a limit. "
Lin Heng was filled with emotion and almost threw away the good things.
"Huh...it seems that the world really only knows the surface. They don't know the undercurrents beneath the sea, nor do they know the Inquisitor's kind heart."
"That's right, listen to their bullshit. Inquisitors are not emotionless machines. It's just that emotions are the first thing we give up. We are also human beings with flesh and blood.
I will cry for the death of my comrades, and I will be happy for the victory of the battle. The dark galaxy cannot expand its territory without some unconventional means. Moral concepts are just rules that restrict ordinary people. Inquisitor... Damn, who cares about this thing?"
Clark was carefree, and Lin Heng felt comfortable listening to him. He shook the "Empire Handbook" in his hand as a way of thanking Belvis for his kindness.
"Ah, the difference between people is really huge. If I had known you guys before, maybe I wouldn't have to go through so much hardship. Damn Inquisitor Harrington, I wish him a bad death."
Clark looked at Belvis, who curled his lips and shook his head, then pointed his skinny fingers at the ceiling. Clark nodded thoughtfully.
"However, there is one thing I don't understand. Why did those oil guys arrive at the border world and even send out the Titan Legion?"
After hearing this, Lin Heng also recalled the past. Things happened one after another, and he actually forgot even such an important thing.
"Hmm... a complete SCP. The template name is Panacea. The preliminary installation has been completed. I used this to attract the other party. I guess it has been transported back to Triple Phil Star by now."
"..."
After a silence of about three seconds, Judge Clark rushed forward, grabbed Lin Heng's arm tightly with both hands, and asked loudly as if he wanted to eat him:
"SCP! A complete SCP! Or an SCP called Panacea! It was stolen by that damn bitch, the stinking maggot-like alien Maras!"
Lin Heng took the other person's hand away with disgust, then nodded.
"Fuck! Fuck! Why didn't you tell me earlier! Let these oil guys get the SCP, and it's fucking intact, how can I let them spit it out!
Damn it, damn it, the Alien Inquisition has been chasing us for years, but I didn’t expect you to find us… We must report it quickly, damn it! Report it quickly!”
Clark turned around and left in a hurry. Everyone looked at each other and started discussing, especially those Alpharius who concealed their identities.
"Okay, let's stop here for now. We'll have plenty of time after this. Now let's see if you are the chosen one."
Alexei stopped talking, and everyone stopped talking and surrounded Lin Heng to go to the Omega Vault.
Walking through the silent and quiet corridor, the thumping sound of people walking further highlights the loneliness.
When Lin Heng arrived at the forbidden land he had been longing for, he looked at the magnificent gate hundreds of meters away. Its desolate and ancient atmosphere told of the grandeur of the empire tens of millions of years ago.
Everyone present could feel a different atmosphere from before, because the portal was completely opened with the arrival of Lin Heng, and everyone realized that it was actually a joyful emotion.
"Here, this is your sword. To be honest, the technical sergeant cannot find out the meaning of it. He only knows that it is a sword made of black stone."
Lin Heng took the blade. Although he was not sure what happened at that time, the answer to the disappearance of the blade could only be attributed to its original owner, Taraxin.
The other party's actions not only saved everyone, but also saved himself in disguise. However, it is hard to say how much personal feelings are involved here, after all, he is also considered the other party's "property".
"There are too many mysterious circumstances surrounding you. If you manage to return from the vault, I hope you can help us solve them."
"Okay, but 'success'? What does that mean? Is there still danger inside?"
"I don't know. No one knows what's going on inside the Omega Vault. I hope you can tell us when you come back."
Lin Heng was helpless. He took a deep breath and looked at the huge gate. There was nothing he needed to remind, so he turned around and walked closer to the vault door.
1 meter...10 meters...50 meters...100 meters...There was no obstruction, Alexei clenched his fists.
200 meters...300 meters...400 meters...until they stood in front of the gate, even Belvis felt a little nervous.
Lin Heng did not look back. He reached out and touched the bizarre curtain, then took a step forward and gradually walked into the curtain of light.
Everyone cheered and Alexei breathed a sigh of relief.
“Bang!”
The door closed instantly, the laughter and chatter stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at each other with doubts...
At this time, Lin Heng didn't know what was happening. After passing through the glial light curtain that was almost invisible but full of resistance, about 5 seconds later, the pressure disappeared instantly.
Looking up, I found myself in a huge white space with no height at all. Although I was standing on the ground, I couldn't find a sense of space because of the single color.
"What strange place?"
Lin Heng radiated his spiritual energy as he spoke. With his current energy level, the diameter of his exploration had exceeded ? ? kilometers, but it still felt endless.
Moreover, the portal just now disappeared in a flash. Lin Heng tried to use the Mandela Rune to communicate with the Shadow Land, but the white space seemed to isolate any way of transmitting information.
Lin Heng half-knelt on the ground, trying to use his spiritual power to detect what was under his feet, but when he touched the ground, an inaudible vibration flowed upstream.
He quickly mobilized his 'Star Realm Vision' to stare at the black spot in the distance. As the inexplicable thing turned from a point to a line, and then from a line to a surface, Lin Heng finally figured out what it was.
Those fierce and aggressive Tyranids that invaded the air and the ground were countless in number.
Lin Heng ran away, simply because there was not a single simple creature among the overwhelming swarm of insects. There were hundreds and thousands of Titan units of different appearances, and the closer they got, the more they exuded the aura of top predators.
But as soon as he took a step, the whiteness around him vanished, and the scorched earth beneath his feet emitted a foul smell. The smoke in the air obscured his eyes.
The ground cracked and a deep abyss appeared. Lin Heng subconsciously jumped up and leaped into the abyss. A strange creature, Ichthyosaur, which was three times bigger than the large digging python he killed, lurked in the abyss. Its peeling and cracked scales were as thick as his palms.
The desolate planet is like a monster's paradise lost. The sudden change leaves no one clueless. Running is useless and killing is the only way out.
With a "clang" sound, the final wail of death sounded. As spiritual energy surged, Lin Heng's body began to expand to six meters. His body rotated like a circular saw and slashed towards the giant digging python.
But when the extremely sharp End collided with the opponent's dense fangs, a crisp "bang" sound caused the rapidly spinning Lin Heng to stop in the air.
"grass?!"
There was a sound of metal and stone clashing, and under the dense sparks, not even a scratch was left on the python's fangs, which were as thick as cannon barrels.
"Crack!"
Hundreds of teeth formed a whole, and the sound waves from the collisions lingered in the rift valley, highlighting the severity of the environment.
Lin Heng appeared on the other side of the rift. If he had not mastered the 'Star Gate' and was entangled by the enemy and waited for the arrival of the army, his life would have been in danger.
But when he tried to determine the direction, the swarms of insects from all directions made him wonder where to escape.
"Fuck, what the fuck is going on!"
Lin Heng closed his eyes tightly, stabilized his mind and tried to stay calm. The "Empire Manual" in his "Space Pocket" automatically flew out, and a large amount of collected biomass began to infuse his body.
The huge psychic power began to surge and roar, and as the swarm of insects got closer, Lin Heng's palms also clasped together.
"Snapped."
There was a soft clapping sound, and Lin Heng opened his eyes and looked at the gap in the insect swarm. The result of the "prophecy divination" was unexpectedly good, and it completely pointed out the path of dying vitality in the dead end.
However, in the prophecy that appeared in his mind, there were dozens of inexplicable punctuation marks.
Their arrangement was not standard and even looked very messy. Lin Heng reached out and touched the position of the punctuation marks in his mind as if possessed.
But the timely attack of hundreds of Tyranid crones in the air with acid blood shells forced him to give up and flee. There were all kinds of insect soldiers to be seen, and the forms of symbiotes were dazzling.
The spiritual energy surged again, and this time it "changed its appearance" and controlled the body to shrink smaller and smaller. The six-meter body shrank layer by layer until it was less than one meter.
His small stature allows him to thrive in the ocean-like swarm of insects. Compared to him, the huge Titan units are like the difference between an ant and an elephant.
Lin Heng ran on the bodies of the insect soldiers, jumped on their sharp teeth and claws, and shuttled between the shells and bone spurs, using the advantage of being "small" to win big results.
He didn't need to do anything himself, the Zerg spontaneously created chaos, and it looked like their own people were attacking each other, constantly inflicting heavy damage on friendly forces.
After more than ten minutes of thrilling chase, Lin Heng realized that the so-called life gate on the top of the mountain was indeed a door.
He could read the strange words on it, he had touched the circular structure, and even said that it had once been the key to open a new portal.
That was the webway of the Eldar, bypassing the gap between the warp and real space. The familiar feeling reminded him of the past he didn't want to remember.
"That's unreasonable..."
Lin Heng always felt that something was wrong. What was on the other side of the portal was unknown, the origin of the insect swarm was unknown, and the contents of the vault were also unknown. Everything was unclear.
He hated this feeling. He was tired of being adrift, of never having any peace, no respite.
"It's really frustrating... I was fooled by this fucking thing."
Lin Heng muttered to himself, facing the swarm of insects rushing towards him, took a deep breath and prepared to meet the enemy again.
He didn't want to run from one unknown to another, he wanted to find out the truth.
Zhongyan stood upside down on the ground. Strong winds blew up on the ground, and a tornado formed with Lin Heng as the center. He couldn't be led by the nose anymore. He needed to resist as much as possible!
