I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 277, "The Electricity Meter Reverses," is the MVP.
"Listen, kids, these ugly bugs are called the Tyranids, and their other name is the Great Devourer..."

Referring to Cloud Hammer's memories, Li Nuo explained the characteristics of the Tyranids.

The social structure of the Tyranids is quite similar to that of the "Internet".

The Hive's will unifies and controls the Terran race, much like the root server of the internet.

Large Tyranids can directly connect to the Hive's will.

Smaller Tyranids have weaker "network signals" and poorer "networking" capabilities. In most cases, they can only connect to the hive will by using larger Tyranids as signal relay stations.

When fighting the Tyranids, eliminating the large Tyranid creatures first can effectively reduce the overall strength of the Tyranids.

After the signal was lost, the behavior of the small Tyranid creatures was similar to that of ordinary wild beasts, with a significant reduction in reaction speed, destructiveness, and aggressiveness.

However, not all Tyranid creatures need to connect to the Hive's will to move freely.

Gene stealers, commonly known as thieves, have a sky-reaching pattern on their heads and multiple arms.

They are the vanguard of the Tyranid army, responsible for infiltrating bio-rich planets, scouting their conditions, and guiding the main force to plunder them.

The cunning can act independently without being connected to the hive's will.

When they connect with the insect hive's will, it means the planet is about to be devoured by the insects, and they themselves will become food for the insects.

Another type of Tyranid that does not require connection to the hive's will is the Licartar.

This is a stealth unit of the Zerg fleet, acting as a scout.

Their invisibility comes from camouflage, similar to a chameleon, but even more effective.

With "Brother Gao's gaze" in hand, there's not too much to worry about being infiltrated by Licat.

The most distinctive feature of the Tyranids is their ability to devour and evolve.

Their prowess in devouring is undeniable; they eat a lot, reproduce a lot, and their army grows stronger with each meal.

In terms of evolution, the Terran Zerg possess an evolutionary tactical mindset that targets specific enemies.

For example.

Imagine a Zerg swarm fleet encountering the fleet of the Paru warlord.

During the battle, the Palu warlord's Gaussian weapons and monocrystalline armor inflicted heavy losses on the Tyranids, causing them to suffer defeat and flee in disarray.

Therefore, the Hive Will will evolve its insects to counter Gauss weapons and monocrystalline armor, giving them an advantage when fighting against such weapons and equipment.

The simplest way to counter Gauss weapons is to add lead plates; if one meter thick isn't enough, add two meters, or even three meters.

However, single-crystal armor is somewhat inadequate when facing sonic and liquid attacks.

This is mainly because the armor itself must have some gaps to allow the wearer to move freely.

The materials used to fill gaps are typically leather or flexible metal, which have weak defensive properties.

Based on the above analysis, the next time Warlord Paru encounters the Tyranid fleet, he will see a group of insects covered in thick lead plates and with mouthparts that spew concentrated acid.

"After hearing my description, you should understand what kind of opponents we are."

"The first time we fought them, we used Gauss weapons. The second time, we switched to thermoelectric weapons, rendering their lead plates useless. The third time, they would be equipped with high-melting-point metal armor, which can usually be magnetized, so we would equip ourselves with electromagnetic weapons to teach them a lesson."

"In this way, we need to replace our weapons and equipment in every battle to always keep them in check."

Li Nuo finished introducing all aspects of the Tyranids in one breath, then waved his staff and shouted:

"In short, to deal with such an enemy, we need to be able to eat more, fight more, produce more troops, and evolve more than them! Understand? Waaagh!"

The Palu bosses around him were thrilled and started shouting "Waaagh!", making the meeting room incredibly lively.

But don't get excited yet.

How to access the Large Magellanic Cloud is still a problem.

Pampa calculated that subspace travel would take about 5 years, and the time would be extended if subspace storms and turbulence were encountered.

Can we use the net lane?

Li Nuo really didn't know the answer to this question.

In his mind, no matter how much the ancient saints, star gods, and chaotic evil gods caused trouble, it seemed that they were only fighting in the Milky Way galaxy, and there was no evidence that they had ever been involved outside the Milky Way galaxy.

Li Nuo pondered that he needed to go to the Cosmic Hall and use the retrieval crystal there to check the situation.

At the end of the meeting, Li Nuo arranged the tasks for each leader, then switched his consciousness to his space body and set off for the second level of the Ancient Saint Military Fortress.

They drove smoothly and easily to the Space Hall.

Li Nuo possessed space and commanded the ship to send a query request to the crystal. The operation interface of the cosmic hall appeared on the holographic projection of the bridge.

There are six options on the interface, which are:

Let me see!

Shoot him!

Get him!

【Fix it!】

[I'm outta here!]

[Wow! The electricity meter is running backwards?]

The option we'll be using here is the first one: "Let me see!"

Li Nuo clicked and entered a line of Orcish language in the pop-up input box:

"I want to see if there are any network nodes in the Large Magellanic Cloud."

To prevent the Cosmic Hall from the War of Heaven from being unable to understand modern galaxy names, Li Nuo thoughtfully added the physical coordinates of the Large Magellanic Cloud.

This will require 15 tons of single crystals. If you have no objections, please send over the sparkly crystals.

There is a play!

If there were no Web nodes at the Large Magellanic Cloud, the Cosmic Hall would not have requested single crystals.

With a wave of his hand, Li Nuo dispatched a cargo shuttle to launch the packaged single crystal onto the crystal.

Hey, I received your single crystal. Give me some time to check if there are any network nodes over there.

【...】

[Wuhu! Congratulations, kid! I found three internet channels there. Two of them are broken and need fixing, but the last one is still usable.]

Hmm, not bad, it's better that there's no chaotic corruption.

Li Nuo checked the three network nodes in turn.

They are ordinary network hubs, without network cities or other buildings, and were built by the Ancients.

The space of a network hub is generally not large, with a maximum diameter of 1000 million kilometers, and these three nodes are no exception.

They are located at the center, westernmost, and easternmost points of the Large Magellanic Cloud plan, respectively.

The usable node is the one on the easternmost side of the Large Magellanic Cloud, which is also the farthest from the Milky Way.

Li Nuo selected this node and activated the option "[Slipped away! Slipped away!]".

【开启通往那个节点的传送门，需要消耗150吨单晶体。传送门持续10分钟，最高可通行长5公里、宽3.2公里、高3公里的舰船。考虑好了再来找俺。】

Currently, the single crystal production capacity is 150 tons per day, and the daily output just covers the cost of the transmission gate.

After a moment's thought, Li Nuo decided to send a reconnaissance ship to scout ahead. Just as he was about to call in the reconnaissance ship, the sixth option on the space hall interface caught his attention.

The option is: "Wow! The electricity meter is running backwards?"

After clicking on the option, an input box will appear on the interface.

Li Nuo tried entering different information, but the interface didn't respond. Isabella also didn't know what the option did.

But whether it was just his imagination or not, Li Nuo always felt that the so-called "electricity meter reversal" had a sense of time travel.

"How about I try the keyword 'sub-universe'?"

Li Nuo pondered silently and entered three words into the input box:
sub-universe.

This time, the interface responded.

A line of orc slang appeared above.

Hey kid, do you know the concept of sub-universes now?

Li Nuo took a deep breath, her heart racing.

The boys on the bridge stared wide-eyed and gasped in surprise.

"Wow! The sixth option is working!"

"The meter is running backwards! The meter is running backwards! I want to see what it means when the meter is running backwards!"

"Quiet." Li Nuo reached out and pressed down, silencing the boys, and typed new content into the interface:
"Yes, that's all I know about the concept of sub-universes. I want to find a way to avoid the annihilation of sub-universes."

【Then you've come to the right person. First, tell me, which sub-universe do you belong to?】

"I am in a sub-universe of the rebellion era."

[Oh! You're really lucky! The electricity meter reversal cost during the Rebellion era is the lowest among the three sub-universes.]

Listen carefully, I'm only saying this once.

[The electricity meter reversal is a time-space reset technology invented by Gu Sheng!]

It can use the energy of a single crystal to reset the timeline of spacetime.

In short, if you give me enough single crystals, I can reset the timeline of the Rebellion Era to the 964th year of the 30th millennium, three days after the destruction of the Perfect City!

The first reset required 1035 million tons of single crystals; the second required 10 times that amount; the third required 100 times that amount, and so on.

Come find me again once you've collected enough single crystals.

hiss------

It really is time travel!
The first time-space rewind requires the consumption of more than ten million tons of single crystals.

Li Nuo did a quick calculation and found that, based on the current production capacity, it would take him more than two hundred years to accumulate enough single crystals.

However, despite the large amount of consumption, there is still hope of raising enough money to cover the expenses.

Li Nuo steadied himself and asked in the input box:
"I have a question. What is the specific procedure for reversing the electricity meter reading?"

What else can we do but reset everything to the beginning of the timeline?

Will the true gods and demigods discover that the timeline has been reset?

Good question, kid! You're cautious, I like that.

To be honest, the true god will notice the timeline has been reset, but demigods won't. However, often demigods are aligned with the true god, so even if the true god discovers the timeline reset, a demigod might also find out.

Li Nuo understood, and then asked:

"Here's the situation. The Emperor in this universe possesses the power of the Dark Lord. Flower Sprout plans to help the Emperor save his offspring, enable them to control the nature of the warp, and become demigods of humanity. Finally, he plans to banish the Emperor and his demigod offspring to two other universes."

"Assuming that the plan of the Bean Sprouts succeeds, the Emperor and his demigod offspring leave this universe."

"So, if I activate the electricity meter to reverse at this moment, returning time to the third day after the destruction of Perfect City, what will happen?"

I'm liking you more and more; what brilliant divergent thinking!

Kid, remember one thing:

The sub-universe is a mirror space.

You can think of mirror space as a mirror.

A mirror reflects its image based on what is in front of it, and the mirrored space forms a sub-universe based on real history.

When the Emperor, along with the Dark Lord's power and his demigod offspring, leaves this subverse, the subverse will generate an Emperor and his descendants, referencing true history.

The emperor generated here is exactly the same as in real history—a large, golden-haired man who knows a bit of witchcraft.

His offspring were merely ordinary Primarchs, containing only a tiny fraction of the warp essence used by the Emperor to create them.

Furthermore, since most of the warp has already been occupied, it is virtually impossible for newly generated imperial offspring to ascend to demigod status.

[But be careful, the true god can detect the sub-universe reset. After you activate the meter reversal, the weasels that have already left may return with their offspring, and you'll be in danger. They will try everything to find out the secret of the sub-universe reset.]

The last sentence is the key point.

The reversal of the electricity meter is of great significance.

As long as the production of single crystals can keep up, reversing the electricity meter is essentially equivalent to gaining immortality in a sub-universe.

The four peddlers and the emperor who wields the Dark Lord will surely be drawn to the time travel.

"Is there any way to seal off the sub-universe and prevent true gods and demigods from infiltrating it?"

Yes, kid, yes!

When beings from other sub-universes arrive in your current sub-universe, they will first appear within the subspace region corresponding to the Milky Way galaxy.

[Think of a way to monitor the subspace from all angles. If anyone appears, eliminate them. That way, you can seal off this part of the universe.]

[As for how to monitor the subspace from all angles? Kid, I don't need to teach you that, do I?]

The Psyboy is an expert in observing the warp!

[If you train enough psionic boys, you can monitor the warp from all angles.]

Li Nuo's breathing became heavy, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.

He saw hope in turning the era of rebellion into his own backyard.

It's no exaggeration to say that the reversed meter will be the MVP of the subverse, while PsyKid will be the best support.

It seems it's time to establish the Thousand Sons Clan.

Wait a minute, the name "Thousand Sons" is not very auspicious, and the thought of the Emperor not letting him interfere with the Primarch makes Li Nuo feel very unhappy.

As a Cloudhammer, he held a certain reverence for the Emperor, Primarchs, and Space Marines.

After experiencing so much, he discovered that the Emperor and most Primarchs were just ordinary people with power, while there were many Space Marines with noble character.

This experience since the transmigration has essentially completed a process of demystifying the emperor and the original body.

At this point, it felt somewhat awkward to have him name his Palu clan after his legion.

In that case, the soon-to-be-established Psionic Boys Clan will not be called the "Thousand Boys Clan".

After a moment's thought, Li Nuo reached a conclusion.

Let's call it "Psionic Clan"—it's simple and easy to remember.
