Chapter 647, Ten Years of Wandering
Su Lie was actually able to detect Gu Hang's 'realism'.
When he appeared, it didn't look like a hallucination. Although he has strong psychic reflexes, he is completely different from a demon, nor does he look like a demon in disguise.
Before that, whether it was an illusion that 'He' had created or a demon that had followed 'His' instructions and came to him in various disguises, they were all different from the state of Gu Hang he saw now. .
Moreover, the psychic power used by Gu Hang was violent and ferocious, but it did not have the irritating, disgusting, and inexplicably longing evil feeling of subspace demons. On the contrary, it had a sense of purging evil spirits.
These all look like a serious psychic, consistent with the rumored Gu Hang.
But even though he noticed all this, he still couldn't believe it.
Rather than believing that Gu Hang, who was countless galaxies away and had little to do with him, would appear here to save him, it would be better to believe that this was a new trick the enemy had come up with. All those real feelings I have are the other party's further advancement in deception technology.
However, when he tried the quality with his own hands, his mind changed a bit.
Gu Hang showed very strong strength.
The fight with Gu Hang just now was relatively short, but the intensity was not light at all. Su Lie thought that he had used all his strength, but still failed to do anything to Gu Hang. Gu Hang looked a little embarrassed, but Su Lie could also feel that Gu Hang was a little underestimating the enemy at the beginning.
If both parties are serious... Su Lie feels that he has a chance of winning, but it's not very good.
From this point of view, it still proved that the person in front of him was indeed Gu Hang, who was rumored to be very powerful in psychic abilities.
Although it is still not ruled out that this is a powerful demon disguised as this. But thinking about it more carefully, it seems unlikely.
In a high-intensity battle, it is difficult to continue pretending. Just like Gu Hang, he was still trying to use force field psychic energy to control him at first, but when he realized that he had underestimated the enemy, when the intensity increased, he still had to use his real special skills, which were those violent thunders.
This is a truth.
Even though he was a big demon, Su Lie didn't quite believe that he could continue to maintain his disguise and not show some real skills under his own pressure.
From various angles, objective facts were used to convince Su Lie.
But the experience of being constantly seduced and deceived over the past ten years has made him unable to believe anything.
Wrong belief, in this subspace, is doomed.
However, they have indeed reached the point where they are almost beyond redemption.
After ten years of sailing in the subspace, the engine that had not been turned on for a long time had begun to malfunction, and the Geller force field was gradually losing its strength.
These are actually normal situations, but what is even more troublesome is that tens of thousands of years have passed since the era of direct use of subspace for space navigation. It is true that there are reservations about the maintenance technology of these equipment on the ship, but the operators have changed for hundreds of generations, and no one among the living maintenance personnel has actually operated or maintained these ancient devices.
Everything is made from ancient technical documents, which can be learned and used now.
To study, of course you have to pay tuition.
Although the maintenance personnel and monks of the Mechanicum are becoming more and more proficient, some costs are inevitable in the process of becoming proficient. Under the current situation, these losses are even irreparable, and it is impossible for them to find a place in subspace to conduct thorough repairs.
The problem is not only in the ship equipment, but also in navigation.
The Star Torch on Holy Terra still burns and can be seen in the Warp. However, using star torches to navigate in subspace also requires very strict technical requirements, and after tens of thousands of years, this job type also disappeared.
The Chapter's Librarians, as well as the Astropaths and Psykers aboard the ships, were drawn out to perform the work.
It's like chasing a duck to the shelf, but there is no other way.
In the past ten years, they have worked very hard to find a way back to the real universe for the war group, but they have failed almost every time. Often, that path not only fails to bring Phoenix Guanyu back to the real universe, but instead makes them sink deeper and deeper into the subspace.
Although there was no evidence, Su Lie still suspected that the reason for this was not only the navigator's poor academic skills, but also some malicious beings who deliberately misled their psychics.
But even so, what can be done?
Every time the think tanks and psykers said that they had found a suspected path, no matter how many doubts Su Lie had, no matter how many times he reviewed it, in the end, as long as he was sure that the psyker who proposed the plan had not been If you are tempted and corrupted, you will most likely follow the route proposed.
But who can guarantee that inspection will definitely reveal corruption? Even if not corrupted, who's to say if a psyker has been deceived? Even if he was neither corrupted nor deceived, who could be sure whether the navigator made a mistake?
If multiple risks are filtered out, it will be really fatal.
Although Su Lie still maintains his tenacious belief, and still firmly allows the more than one hundred Phoenix warriors who are still alive to maintain the same firm belief, the mortals on the ship cannot be useful simply by relying on encouragement. . Amidst the whispers that sound from time to time and the terrifying and supernatural events that often occur on the ship, the mortal crew inevitably gradually collapse.
Problems with the ship, problems with navigation, problems with morale... these were all weighing on Su Lie's mind.
He knew that no matter how firm they were subjectively, objectively they could no longer hold on and were heading towards inevitable destruction.
He has even prepared for the worst. At the last moment, he will kill every collapsed person on the ship and kill every demon that invades the ship. He will take the most determined warriors in his battle group to stay with his ships forever and ever, until they themselves lose all supplies and reinforcements and are destroyed under the siege of endless enemies, which means His duty to the Emperor was complete.
But at this time, Gu Hang appeared.
Now he can think with a high probability that it is not a deception or an illusion.
Is that...a turning point?
Although we have prepared for the worst, it is of course better to be able to lead the war group out.
Although his face was still wary, his heart was actually pounding.
……
Gu Hang, who was on the opposite side, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Phoenix Lord didn't attack unreasonably with his sword again.
He took the time to talk about the situation.
Gu Hang did not mention how he found the phoenix crown feather. The system definitely can't tell, but if you don't mention it, you have to lie. Gu Hang could feel that lying was definitely a very bad choice in the current situation.
I'd rather be honest and say that I can't talk about this.
The focus after that was mainly how Gu Hang planned to help Su Lie.
In short, Gu Hang could give Phoenix Guan Yu a navigation coordinate in the subspace—actually his Kingdom of Storms.
When they get near the Kingdom of Storm God, Gu Hang can tear apart the subspace and take them out.
It sounds simple, but actually... it's quite simple. The premise is that Su Lie must believe it.
Sure enough, after Gu Hang finished speaking, Su Lie didn't say a word and just stared at him with his eyes.
Gu Hang looked quite uncomfortable.
At this point, he also realized that in fact, since the two met, fought, and later talked, he was the one who spoke. Su Lie never spoke, which made people wonder if he was mute.
When the conversation reached this level, Gu Hang had nothing to say.
He also fell silent, his eyes just staring at Su Lie.
After a while, Su Lie finally spoke: "I will let my people try."
"What?" Gu Hang was stunned for a moment.
But he quickly reacted: "Then it's best, as soon as possible, I hope you can still catch up with the final battle."
At this point, Gu Hang also told Su Lie about the current situation of the Iron Armor War. He also complained that his successor and the commander-in-chief of the Northern Front were too reckless.
Su Lie listened carefully, but did not make any comments.
He rarely comments on things he doesn't understand deeply.
……
After returning to the real universe, Gu Hang was in a generally good mood.
Although there was a fight with no outcome, he was not going to fight, but to get people.
Even if he couldn't capture the Phoenix, he would at least be an ally. There were more than a hundred space warriors, even the elites of the founding group, but Gu Hang actually didn't think much of them. No matter how good he is at fighting, can he still be the company champion? The startup team can’t do it either.
However, this Glorious Queen battleship is so exciting. It's not interesting to say that there is a one-on-one battle, but if there is an entire escort fleet guarding it, it is not too much to say that one Glory Queen can defeat ten battleships.
Gu Hang didn't even know how Phoenix, which owned a Glory Queen, lost the battle with Iron Armor. He really wanted to open his mouth and ask, but unfortunately the atmosphere of the previous meeting was not suitable. Su Lie didn't fully believe him yet, so he couldn't ask.
It doesn't matter, there will be plenty of opportunities to figure it out later.
Even if this Queen of Glory cannot be obtained, it is still a very important weight to be able to temporarily use it under her command during the war.
However, the leader of Su Lie still seemed to be a little hesitant.
Before Gu Hang left, he met with Phoenix think tanks and left navigation marks. In the subspace, the Kingdom of Storms certainly has no sense of existence, and it cannot play a navigational role similar to the star torch that represents the Emperor's Golden Throne projected in the subspace on Holy Terra. However, the special navigation route left by Gu Hang as the Lord of the Kingdom of God cannot be used on a large scale, but it can be used to provide a reliable approach route for only one ship.
The navigation path has been corrected so that Phoenix Guanyu can drive to the Kingdom of Storm God. Gu Hang's spiritual energy can clearly point the way in the middle. As long as their navigator walks unswervingly in this direction, they will definitely not go wrong in the middle.
But actually, there are two problems.
First, are they willing to go on firmly?
So far, they have no intention of moving forward according to the guidance left by the airline.
If they refuse to follow the route given by Caregiver and refuse to believe it even to the death... then let them do whatever they want.
All we can say is that the situation is not critical enough, they can still survive, and they still have a choice. When you are really desperate, you have to leave even if you don’t want to.
Anyway, Gu Hang was in no hurry.
On the other hand, Gu Hang was more concerned about another issue.
That was the one who had his eye on Su Lie and Phoenix.
At first, Gu Hang thought it was some ordinary subspace demon or a lesser god.
Gu Hang is not worried about enemies of this level.
However, when he really felt those vague eyes looking over him, he changed his mind.
That is by no means an ordinary thing.
It gave Gu Hang the feeling that he was of the same class as that 'loving father'!
He is one of the four greatest and most unspeakable evil gods in subspace!
He was still far away, and whether it was Phoenix Guan Yu or Chapter Master Su Lie, although they were what he longed for, after all, they were all the Emperor's possessions and were covered by the Emperor's mighty power.
The sinful prince couldn't grab it directly, and he was afraid of causing trouble; he wouldn't even look here with all his attention, he would just knock on the edge.
However, while he was afraid of the God Emperor, he obviously was not afraid of Gu Hang.
If Gu Hang brought the Phoenix Guanyu to the vicinity of his Kingdom of Storms, would he also bring the lustful prince's gaze with him?
His kingdom cannot withstand the gaze of a truly great evil god!
To be honest, he had had this experience once before. It was when he was killing and devouring the Great Impure One, Gawaja, that he caught the eye of the loving father.
Gu Hang had to thank the Emperor. At that time, it was the Emperor who should have helped him and shielded his divine kingdom from his 'loving father'. Otherwise, Gu Hang may not be able to develop slowly and comfortably. After passing his storm test, he will definitely face endless attacks from plague demons.
And this time, if the Phoenix was brought over without thinking and allowed to be seen by beings of the same level, Gu Hang's Kingdom of Storms would probably be baptized by the swarm of desire demons.
Gu Hang had to think of some way to avoid this happening.
What to do?
He himself had some methods to cover his whereabouts, but they were only for himself. He couldn't guarantee that he could hide an entire ship under the vague attention of Prince Desire.
If you want to do this, you still have to rely on the great God Emperor.
Gu Hang could not contact the God Emperor directly.
But he has two more indirect methods that he can try one by one.
