The Possibility of Establishing an Association with the Space Ape
Mikhailovsky and Jorginho rushed through the Zero-G Corridor from both sides, onto the bridge, and used explosive bombs to Purification Joegall.
A Faceless Ones that deliberately went alone found an opportunity and swallowed the oval head into its stomach.
The next moment, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of foul-smelling, dark red blood, which made him feel nauseous.
He had never eaten such a disgusting Xenos before.
Gabriel led a team to begin researching the biochemical and mechanical modification technology of the Joegall.
Malena also joined the research, but their focuses differed.
The Tech Sergeant were more interested in mechanics, and in addition to biomechanical devices, they also conducted research on Arc Projector, Needle Ballistic Weapon, Spring Piston Leg, and other related technologies.
The "Physician" focuses more on biological aspects, disassembling biochemical limbs to understand their design purpose and function.
After the battle, the Thousand Sons immediately headed to the bottom Hatchery they had sensed the burst of Psionic Energy.
They were immediately stopped by members of the Honor Guard.
"The Primarch has decreed that this area is off-limits."
Ormuzd and Apophis frowned and looked at Azek Ahriman.
The leader of the "Thousand Sons" Legion only thought for a second before wisely choosing to give up.
"We will obey Lord Nimrod's orders."
He led his Thousand Sons away to search for information about Xenos on the Joegall Craftworld.
But when the Thousand Sons arrived at the bridge, they were told that all the data had been destroyed.
In fact, the data stored by the Joegall, such as the Data Crystal, were collected and handed over to Gabriel.
Nimrod began collecting potion ingredients, and he transported the Aberrant Joegall cubs to the "Nation of Disorder."
After placing them all in a palace on the first level of the real space, Nimrod arrived at the Second Layer Space.
After several years of practice, he has begun to use his Spirituality to construct a place for cultivating some of the materials for magical potions.
Above thousands of crisscrossing pipes, dozens of Lung Spider weave their webs.
An invisible barrier separated him from the pipes, inside which ran and hissed Hive Giant Rat.
Only Nimrod personally comes here each time, using his Spirituality to open the barrier, just like now, can the Lung Spider follow the web into the pipe to hunt the Hive Giant Rat.
The Hive Giant Rat feed on fungi in sewage pits, and there is also an invisible barrier that keeps them perpetually hungry from food.
This fragile ecological balance is unstable; if Nimrod busy with other matters and does not come in person for more than three Vostonia Work Cycle, the ecological balance will be disrupted.
The starving Hive Giant Rat and Lung Spider of the Nest City will attack and devour each other, leaving only a small number intact enough to be used as ingredients for potions.
With a thought, Nimrod opened the two gates that separated the Spirituality.
He darted away, picked up two fungi from the sewage pit, and tossed them into the pipe. The Hive Giant Rat, with their keen sense of smell, immediately swarmed towards the sewage pit.
He then picked up the Hive Giant Rat and tossed it to the Lung Spider, stimulating the latter.
Nimrod examined this incomplete and fragile ecological balance, and a sense of enlightenment dawned on him.
[Order is a delicate matter, affecting everything; building a well-functioning order is by no means easy.]
With a thought, Nimrod arrived at another area.
A zebra with green stripes is uncomfortable due to the glare in its eyes.
It sometimes hops, sometimes shakes its head, sometimes runs...
It jumped and struggled, trying to shake off the things that were making its eyes uncomfortable, but the black eye patch was stuck tightly to its eyes.
Inside were twelve finger-length, colorful worms, dancing happily around its eyes, emitting a dazzling light.
Then, the Prism Magic Worm contentedly burrowed into its eyes, and the light was no longer blinding, but the green zebra became even more agitated.
After a while, the Prism Magic Worm emerged again, lying on the zebra's broad forehead, with a tiny bug the size of a grain of rice crawling out of its abdomen.
This zebra was used as a container for breeding Prism Magic Worm.
Nimrod sensed the birth of the new Little Prism Magic Worm and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
Establishing order is sometimes so simple.
The Prism Magic Worm is easier to raise than the Lung Spider or even the Hive Giant Rat; you just need to place it on a creature with eyes.
For example, the Green Zebra's eyes can sustain the five Prism Magic Worm until it goes blind nineteen days later in the real world, after which it can be used as food.
During this period, one or two small insects will be born.
After checking the Prism Magic Worm, Nimrod reached out and grabbed one of the New Life, rice-grain-sized, colorful worms, then flashed to the Third Layer Space.
Since his promotion to "Briber," he has gained access to this level of space.
He had conducted hundreds of studies before, but to no avail. Even now, he still hasn't figured out what special function this layer of space has.
Now that the New Life Prism Magic Worm have been brought to this level of space, a new attempt is about to begin.
The first feeling upon entering the Third Layer Space was the same as that of the Second Layer Space.
But Nimrod vaguely sensed that there was something different about the two spaces.
This difference is not an obvious difference like air or gravity, but rather a difference hidden beneath the surface.
Nimrod's earliest conjecture was about the difference in rules or order, which is also closely related to the "Black Emperor" and the "Nation of Disorder".
Based on this hypothesis, he conducted a series of related experiments, such as throwing a group of Hive Giant Rat into the nest to observe whether they would develop order...
After hundreds of experiments, he was able to conclude that the Third Layer Space is at least not directly related to order and rules.
If I consider the thirty-three levels of space as a staircase for climbing upwards, then order and rules are clearly only unlocked at higher levels.
What can be unlocked now should be one aspect.
Thinking of this, Nimrod channeled his Spirituality into the Prism Magic Worm in his hand.
His dark eyes gleamed; this time, he clearly sensed something.
It was as if another faint thread had connected him to the demonic insect in his palm.
It's a peculiar connection, different from a spiritual one, yet somewhat similar.
Nimrod had a sudden thought, "Glow!"
The Prism Magic Worm immediately emitted a small, dazzling, colored light. Although its brightness was much less than that of an adult, it did indeed emit light.
Nimrod immediately realized what this space corresponded to: the "Briber's " illegal ability, "Bribery and Connection."
He formed a connection with the Prism Magic Worm and established a relationship.
Nimrod seemed to be deep in thought, then returned to the Second Layer Space and brought over an adult Prism Magic Worm.
He infused his Spirituality into the finger-length, colorful insect's body.
A moment later, he did not sense the same connection; the only change in the Prism Magic Worm was that its light became slightly brighter.
Nimrod channeled more Spirituality into the Prism Magic Worm's body, but there was still no reaction.
After three attempts, he realized that he could only connect with New Life, not adults.
[Perhaps my authority is insufficient, so I can only establish connections with New Lives.]
After guessing the reason, Nimrod began to consider what use this space might be to him.
[Related to...]
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and the image of an orange ape appeared in his mind.
Space Ape!
They act solely on instinct, and perhaps only the Old Ones knew how to control them.
If I could establish a connection with the Space Ape, I could designate them to create things, such as the "Simian Field technology" used by the Inquisition of the Calixis Sector to resist Devil, which possesses remarkable protective effects against Devil.
Nimrod's thoughts wandered, and ideas began to surface in his mind.
[Well, I don't need to prepare the potions myself; I can leave that to the Space Ape.]
Perhaps, it can also motivate them to develop and manufacture what I need, while adhering to certain constraints.
...]
Upon returning to the real world after finding a way to control the Space Ape, Nimrod immediately issued an order: every time New Life is born in the Space Ape tribe, they must report to him immediately.
He then summoned his attendants for a briefing.
