Chapter 218 Genius Lauster

Fu Qinghai looked at the corpse in front of him.

I thought: The dust has settled.

With the disappearance of the Gate of Truth, the subspace energy filled in the plastic ghost doll's body began to be rejected by the real universe. Upton was like a deflated ball, and the heroic aura of the Demon Lord disappeared, and he turned back into that little plastic doll.

Upton pursed his lips and stood there blankly, looking lost.

The transmission deck was in a mess, with facilities and pipes in disarray, and a huge square depression in the middle of the floor, proving that something had happened here.

Fortunately, Ron rescued them in time, and the distorted monsters created by Sith alchemy did not cause much damage to the crew on other decks. It was a blessing in disguise.

"Eugene, send someone over to clean up this mess."

Fu Qinghai whispered in the communication channel.

"Roger that, Khan."

Fu Qinghai didn't know what the Door of Truth was, nor did he know how much information on the subspace the alchemist had studied and what huge price he had paid in order to open this stone door.

Fu Qinghai only used his common sense to judge how difficult it would be to summon a demon, especially one of the level of Khorne, and make it descend directly into the real universe in its original form.

If it were that easy for demons to descend into reality, Chaos warbands wouldn't have to work so hard to find demon vessels.

If it is just the host of the Unclassified Demon, it is fine. As long as the psychic talent is high enough, the demon can take over the body. However, if it is the host of the Four Gods Demon, the host himself needs to agree with or conform to the teachings and ideas of the Four Chaos Gods.

For example, it would be almost impossible for a cowardly and weak psyker to become the host of a Khorne Daemon.

"He's a genius."

Fu Qinghai looked down at the broken body on the ground and muttered to himself.

…

The surface of the Malzan world.

The warlord's castle collapsed and was in ruins, with corpses scattered all over the ground.

Most of the Iron Warriors were stationed at key locations such as artillery positions, warehouses and void shield generators, which happened to be the main targets of orbital bombardment. Therefore, when the first wave of light spear attacks came, almost no Iron Warriors survived.

Camille's harvest of gene-seed was small.

Qiao Shida found the local warlord who was in cahoots with the traitor and stabbed him to death on his velvet bed. The flowing yellow fat and pungent red blood soaked the concubines around him.

Satfaran found the Iron Warriors' Captain Lionel in the underground space. The Raven Guard attacked from the shadows, killed the traitor leader, and repeated the torture suffered by their comrades on the enemy.

Number 56 killed the astropath who was possessed by the demon. The Tzeentch demon returned to the warp with a sinister laugh, leaving behind only a deformed and twisted limp corpse.

The center is blooming, and the inside and the outside are working together.

Master Quinto led the Crusaders and armed servitors and easily defeated the demoralized defense forces outside the castle. The Termite-class Tyrant drill vehicles drilled through the rock at full speed and found two STC systems buried deep underground.

…

War meeting room.

All the reincarnations gathered together to discuss the battle that had just happened.

"What on earth is going on?"

Chen Xinlu asked,

"When the Gate of Truth opened, a large amount of unknown energy filled my body and soul. I had a feeling that I could use this energy to complete the spell, but I couldn't find a specific method."

"Me too."

The black-robed witch said.

The two beautiful magicians looked at Fu Qinghai at the same time, their beautiful big eyes filled with desire for knowledge.

"Um..."

Fu Qinghai pondered for a moment, thinking about where to start.

"You know, the Eye of Terror, the Maelstrom, and the Great Rift?"

Chen Xinlu replied:

"I know the first one, and it seems to be related to this plot line mission. I haven't heard of the latter two."

"These three places are relatively famous in the Empire. They are places where the reality barrier is very weak. They can be regarded as a special geographical structure in the universe. The Eye of Terror was born because of the fall of the Eldar a thousand years ago, and the latter two will be more famous in the future 41K period..."

Fu Qinghai told the story slowly.

Fu Qinghai was a complete idiot when it came to magic. Many people present were more gifted in psychic powers and more qualified to talk about magic than him, including Zhang Yuning, a psychic, and Upton, a ghost.

But Fu Qinghai can answer their questions and resolve their doubts because he is the one who knows the Warhammer 40K universe best among those present.

The Warp and psionics are the basic background settings of Warhammer 40K, just as hyperspace and the Force are the basic background settings of Star Wars.

The power of all psychics is closely related to the Warp. The native spellcasters of the Warhammer 40K universe must rely on the existence of the Warp if they want to exert supernatural powers.

However, the thickness of the curtain is not uniform. In places where the barrier of reality is weaker, it is easier for psychics to be born and for all kinds of legends of monsters and demons to arise.

In the 41K era, Abaddon's thirteen black crusades finally opened the Great Rift, splitting the human empire in two and entering the "Dark Side of the Empire" or "Dark Empire" period.

Under normal circumstances, there is only one psychic among every 100 million people. However, in a world near a great rift or directly covered by a great rift, the number of psychics explodes rapidly, causing great trouble to the rule of the empire.

What does this mean?

It means that the energy of the warp can give rise to psykers.

Even Fu Qinghai vaguely guessed why it was Upton DuPont and the Plastic Doll who first comprehended part of the essence of the subspace, rather than others.

Chen Xinlu and Zhang Yuning can only be said to be humans with psychic talents, and they are still humans in essence.

And Upton, he is a creature of the warp, a ghost living in a plastic doll.

After Upton, the second person who began to comprehend and utilize the energy of the subspace was Zhang Yuning, because Valak and Kayako, who were living in her body, were also subspace creatures.

In the warp environment, vengeful spirits and demons thrive more easily.

Zhang Yuning looked at the ghost doll sitting in Ron's arms pretending to be dead, and thought to herself: It turned out to be this guy, he is one step faster than me.

In Zhang Yuning's impression, Upton and Ron were two heartless and funny guys. She didn't expect that under the giggling appearance of the ghost dolls, they had such a strong ability to understand.

Upton lay in Ron's arms, looking like he was pretending to be dead. Having lost that powerful strength, the little ghost was very unhappy. But Fu Qinghai and Zhang Yuning both knew that after swallowing the Philosopher's Stone and comprehending part of the essence of the subspace, the little ghost's current wave of enhancement could be described as an epic level.

Fu Qinghai looked at Chen Xinlu and asked,

"From what I heard from your conversation, it seems that you knew that guy a long time ago?"

Chen Xinlu nodded:

"That's right, Lauster Cordel Gray, the most famous alchemist in the reincarnation world."

"He used to be the chief guest elder of the Zero Realm Guild. Later, for some unknown reason, he fell out with the guild and was hunted down by players sent by the Zero Realm Guild. He could only hide in various reincarnation worlds."

"Loust's most famous work is his self-created 'Loust ​​formula', also known as the 'Loust ​​cycle'."

"He obtained some means for the Old Gods to bring down the Curse of Flesh and Blood in the WoW universe. Although I don't know how to achieve it specifically, it is a fact that he can create the Curse of Flesh and Blood."

The Curse of Flesh and Blood, a setting in the World of Warcraft universe, is a curse that slowly transformed the early races of Azeroth from metal and stone into skin, blood, and bones. According to the background, the Old Gods attempted to weaken the Titans by turning the originally loyal and immortal Titan creations into mortals that would age, get sick, and die, and develop their own thoughts and ideas.

Because of the curse of flesh and blood, the earth elementals turned into dwarves, the vikul turned into humans, the mechagnomes turned into gnomes, and the stonejaw monsters turned into cavemen... In simple terms, inorganic matter turned into organic matter, and artificial intelligence turned into real souls.

Chen Xinlu continued,

"The so-called 'Laust Formula' is this: Laust uses the rules of Fullmetal Alchemist to create the alchemical product he wants. If the alchemical product he prays for is very powerful, then according to the principle of equivalent exchange, he will lose his arm or leg. First, he uses the prosthetic transformation technology from Star Wars to equip himself with mechanical prostheses. Then, he uses the Curse of Flesh and Blood from World of Warcraft to turn the mechanical prostheses back into flesh and blood. In this way, he can use Fullmetal Alchemy over and over again to get what he wants."

"Wow…"

Fu Qinghai and his friends were all stunned.

"There's a bug here!"

Ron shouted.

"Then if he has the technology to regenerate severed limbs, can't he also achieve the so-called 'Laust Cycle'?"

Fu Qinghai asked doubtfully.

"The principle of equivalent exchange is not that simple." Chen Xinlu shook her head. "He not only lost an arm, but also a part of his soul. If he just regenerates the limb, there is no way to make up for the missing part of his soul. Therefore, only the curse of flesh and blood can achieve this."

Fu Qinghai has not seen Fullmetal Alchemist, but based on the descriptions of Chen Xinlu and Zhang Yuning, it feels more like a wishing technique than alchemy.

In the WOW universe, I learned magical alchemy based on evil energy; in the Fullmetal Alchemist universe, I learned alchemy based on the principle of equivalent exchange by utilizing dragon veins or the earth's crust; in the Star Wars universe, I learned Sith alchemy based on the Force.

What an incredible comprehension ability this is.

No wonder when Chen Xinlu and others were still confused, Laust had already realized part of the essence of the subspace.

Reincarnationists are different from indigenous NPCs. According to old man Hu Xian's theory, reincarnationists can bring the set rules of other worldviews to the new universe through the "infection of rules" and the payment of assimilation points.

However, this method will be severely suppressed by the worldview. Chen Xinlu, who was once a powerful figure in the Marvel multiverse, could not even use the mirror dimension in the Warhammer 40K universe and was captured by the Emperor's Children. Even as strong as Hu Xian, a level 7 reincarnation and a Jedi master in the Star Wars universe, he could not use skills such as Force prophecy in the Warhammer 40K universe.

When Fu Qinghai rushed over from the boarding deck, he heard Laust's ridicule of Chen Xinlu and others. The alchemist mocked the two mages for only being able to rely on the "infection of rules" to complete their spells, instead of comprehending part of the essence of the subspace like him - being able to use the Gate of Truth of the Fullmetal Alchemist Universe to summon the Chaos Demon of the Warhammer Universe.

Laust did not simply summon demons to possess humans, he directly opened a subspace gate and created a miniature subspace rift.

Creating a Warp rift, even if only temporary and not permanent like the Great Rift, is far more powerful than summoning a daemon, and many Chaos Sorcerers of the Word Bearers and Thousand Sons are not capable of this.

"I have to say, he is a real genius."

Fu Qinghai sighed again.

"One last question."

Chen Xinlu said.

"I'm very curious about how a senior and experienced reincarnationist like Laust, whose faction is still unclear, boarded this cruiser. Didn't you investigate it?"

Zhang Yuning's face turned cold when she heard this.

Fu Qinghai noticed it keenly.

He reached out and held the back of Zhang Yuning's hand, and said,

"It was my decision. My teammates needed the Philosopher's Stone he provided, so I let him on board."

When Chen Xinlu and Jiang Yixia saw Fu Qinghai holding Zhang Yuning's hand, their slender eyebrows raised.

But nothing more was said.

…

Fu Qinghai thought that the classic post-war review was over. He was sitting in the captain's room sorting out the spoils seized from the alchemist. Suddenly, Zhang Yuning pushed the door open with a gloomy and serious expression.

Fu Qinghai thought she was still angry about what Chen Xinlu said, but unexpectedly, Zhang Yuning said in a deep voice:

"It's not over yet, Qingshan, there is still a demon in the battleship who has not left, right there on the bridge!"

"What!?"

…

Qiao Shida and Camille remain on the surface, assisting Master Quinto in excavating the STC and dealing with the aftermath of the feudal world.

The fully armed Fu Qinghai led all the reincarnations on the warship and walked hurriedly in the passage leading to the bridge.

The group quickly arrived at the bridge.

Zhang Yuning pointed at the frail girl standing on the podium of the Xingyu Choir.

Fu Qinghai looked serious and led the team over.

The armored Space Marines stepped onto the platform, and the remaining spellcasters surrounded them. The Astropath heard the voice from behind, turned around, looked up at Fu Qinghai, licked the tip of his nose with his long tongue, and said with a smile:

"You found me so quickly? I thought it would take some time for you to react."

Fu Qinghai lowered his head and looked down at the Director of Star Language.

Except for that unusually long tongue, there was no change or mutation in Xia Long's appearance. No, on the contrary, Fu Qinghai suddenly felt that the girl was... so beautiful today.

Xia Long Frospin is a Nordic-style girl with light blonde, fine curly hair, pale skin that is almost transparent, and freckles all over her small nose. Fu Qinghai usually doesn't like this type of girl. If he has to say, he likes the sexy big girl style of Jiang Yixia, but today... he suddenly feels that Xia Long is not bad, and he has an urge to possess her and then tear her apart.

Fu Qinghai's heart trembled.

How could I have such an idea?

Fu Qinghai gritted his teeth and whispered slowly,

"Slaanesh?"

"You are very courageous, Qingshan Khan, to address my Lord by his name."

The girl said with a smile.

Fu Qinghai thought to himself, I'm not an Eldar, so what's so great about shouting out Slaanesh's name?

None of the Eldar dared to address Slaanesh by name, especially the Dark Eldar, for they were afraid of attracting his attention and having their souls seduced away, so they only dared to call him "Prince of Pleasure", "Nameless Hungry Lady" or "That One".

Fu Qinghai asked in a deep voice:

"When did you take over her body?"

The girl shrugged, not showing any of the reserved look she usually had when facing Fu Qinghai, and said in a relaxed manner:

"Just when that big muscle-brained idiot Akashnet tried to squeeze in, heh heh."

Fu Qinghai nodded and drew out his chainsaw sword:

"Okay, you can die now."

The girl leaned forward, squeezed her arms forward, and gently raised her buttocks. She stretched out her hand to pull her collar, revealing her delicate and white body. She frowned and pretended to be pitiful and said:

"Khan, are you sure?"

"Sure, certain, and certain."

Fu Qinghai said without hesitation:

"Goodbye, this sir whose name and gender I don't know..."

"No!"

Seeing that the seduction was ineffective, the Slaanesh demon quickly said,

"I have information to share with you in exchange for me staying in the real universe for a while longer."

"What information?"

Fu Qinghai asked with a frown.

The Slaanesh demon licked his lips and said,

"Aren't you curious about the content of the astronomical message that Xia Long heard earlier?"

Astral communication from the surface...

Fu Qinghai remembered.

He turned around and looked around, making sure that the mortal crew members on the bridge were working hard and not looking over here, and said in a low voice:

"Come with me."

After saying that, he took the astropath to the captain's room.

"whee."

The girl smiled with satisfaction, waved her arms happily and followed Fu Qinghai to the captain's room.

......

　Thanks to King Marquez for the reward. I forgot to mention that I would like to thank two book friends, Bu La Li Zi and Yi Ren Ying Xiang Sui, for providing the extra character cards.
