The Great Devourer

"I'm sorry, sir, I've embarrassed you." After the Silent King left, Urtana knelt before Han Mingxuan.

"Stand up," Han Mingxuan said, frowning.

Seeing Han Mingxuan frown, Urtana quickly stood up.

"You've been by my side for so long, why are you still like those decadent Imperium nobles? You don't need to kneel before me."

"You hold a very special place in my heart, sir," Urtana said.

"But that's no reason for you to kneel before me all the time. Actually, I wasn't too angry about what you just did; I was just more curious."

"Curious?"

To Urtana's utter surprise, Han Mingxuan didn't blame her for her outrageous behavior; instead, he seemed curious.

"Yes, I'm curious why you did that? What was your motive?"

"As you probably know, I spent decades in that world, and I never even considered developing romantic feelings for anyone."

"It was impossible under the cosmic conditions of the 30K era, and it would be even more impossible in the 40K era."

"Gentlemen..."

"Let me guess, Urtana, did Slaanesh say something to you before you arrived?"

Urtana didn't reply; she simply nodded.

"Yes, sir, His Slaanesh and Aunt Jia specifically instructed me before I came."

"Jia? What's going on with her?"

Han Mingxuan originally thought that there was only one main character in the story, Slaanesh, but he never expected that there would be other experts as well.

Since Jia's Resurrection, to be honest, their interactions have mostly been limited to work-related matters.

Aside from some routine matters in Nostramo, he spent most of his time wandering around the Imperium.

Aside from necessary technical coordination, he and Jia actually had very little communication.

Because Jia herself is very busy, she not only has to complete her own technological iteration, but also the technological iteration of Nostramo, and spend more time eating candy.

Every time I saw Jia, she was either eating candy or had just finished a whole jar of candy and was opening the next one.

Why is she still involved?

Aunt Jia said your genes are very precious and shouldn't be scattered to other worlds.

"According to Aunt Jia's theory, the world of the 30K era is the anchor world; as for other timelines, they are all just fleeting moments."

Your genes cannot be scattered amidst these fleeting moments.

Tsk.

"Everything I say is about genes," is definitely something Jia would say.

"She's still the same old her, stubborn as ever, always putting on a scientific facade."

"Alright, then tell me about Slaanesh, what's her situation?"

According to Han Mingxuan's plan, as long as Slaanesh integrates the portion of power he gave her...

Then Slaanesh's own understanding of emotions would tend towards balance.

In other words, once the other party has absorbed all the Positive Authority, she will become the goddess of love and beauty.

That way, the other person won't act like a lovesick woman, following you around every day calling you "my husband."

The scene was so terrifying that Han Mingxuan didn't even dare to think about it.

But now it seems things have gone a bit wrong.

"Sir, I don't know exactly what happened regarding Her Slaanesh, but I can sense that her authority is now more complete."

Is the authority more complete?

From this perspective, Slaanesh herself indeed embodied all Positive Authority, and it's likely that her morbid feelings towards herself were a final act of defiance.

With that, Han Mingxuan felt much more at ease.

However, this was merely wishful thinking on his part.

"Alright, Urtana, let's put this matter behind us. Now I need your help with something."

"Please give your instructions, sir."

"Old Kamon, bring your men and come with me."

The group arrived at the Laboratory of the Father of the Evernight.

Krete had been waiting for a long time.

"Sir, the necessary equipment is ready."

Han Mingxuan nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the book from his mind appeared in his hand.

When he opened the book, an illustration appeared before everyone's eyes: a dark purple the Mist.

This purple the Mist is the very wisp of the Great Devourer's will that was captured back then.

"Next, I will choose a body for this will. Urtana, after this body is born, I hope you will take her with you."

"The goal is to familiarize her with everything about humans as quickly as possible, including human culture and morality. Also, if any outrageous behavior is discovered during the process, you will be responsible for ruining her."

"I understand, sir."

This wisp of will has now been nourished by the power of his soul.

Moreover, the other party's power stemmed from their own soul strength.

Some people have already developed a sense of right and wrong and the ability to make judgments.

Han Mingxuan's idea was to give the other party a physical body and then let them cultivate new types of Tyranids warriors to fight against the Great Devourer.

We should learn from the barbarians' superior techniques in order to subdue them.

Krete has been in charge of this matter recently.

As a high-ranking member of the research-oriented Necrontyr, his abilities are indeed formidable.

The Flesh had already been prepared long ago.

Han Mingxuan called these people around him only to prevent any unexpected situations from arising.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

Of course, things went relatively smoothly only on the Father of the Evernight side.

Ultimately, this wisp of Tyranids will gained a physical form.

However, due to the unique nature of the Tyranids's will, when it merges with the body, a cocoon forms on the outer layer of the entire body.

"Krete, what's going on?"

"Sir, this is a normal phenomenon. According to the Silent King's research on the Tyranids, the current state of this wisp of consciousness is equivalent to biomass being recycled and remade."

When do you expect this renovation to end?

"I'm not sure about that either, sir, after all, our research on the ecological and environmental relationships of the Tyranids is limited."

"However, since this wisp of consciousness was nurtured by you, I suggest you keep this cocoon with you."

"When this creation emerges from its cocoon, the first person it sees is you, and that will be helpful for your future plans."

Han Mingxuan put the cocoon away, which was considered as taking Krete's advice to heart.

"Alright, things are settled here. It was a close call, everyone. Let's get some rest."

Since the support team arrived, we can finally catch our breath a little.

In a certain region of the Milky Way Galaxy.

Massive Hive Fleets are heading towards the Milky Way Galaxy, or more precisely, towards Baal.

However, their course has now changed.

These Tyranids fleets now have only one target: the Punishment Star.

The Great Devourer, which had just taken control of the entire Tyranids, issued an order to all its Hive Fleets.

That command plunged the entire Tyranids into a brief period of confusion.

If described in terms of human perception, that instruction consisted of only three words.

Sense of satisfaction.

It was this absurd feeling that drove the Great Devourer into Frenzy.

The Great Devourer then ordered all Tyranids fleets to change course, determined to find and retrieve the lost consciousness at all costs.

In this way, the Great Devourer can truly feel that sense of satisfaction.

The Second Tyranids War came sooner than Han Mingxuan had anticipated.
