"Oh! Who is showing off? It's so dazzling!" Chang Wei subconsciously raised his hand to block the burst of golden light.
When he squinted his eyes and saw a philosophical macho man suddenly appear in his sight, posing like a bodybuilder, he almost vomited!
It’s like you are enjoying a table full of delicious food, and suddenly someone pops up and feeds you a mouthful of Oligy. That feeling... is so sour and refreshing!
Couldn't you have come later? Am I, Chang Wei, someone so easily corrupted by beauty? This is called showing weakness! Once I've pinned him down, the scabbards are closed, and when he's caught off guard, I'll thrust my sword into his body, turning everything upside down. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
Well, this opportunity for a surprise attack has been ruined!
Chang Wei remained silent for a moment, then slowly closed his eyes. Then, golden light exploded around him, and the illusion of Slaanesh gradually melted away before the Emperor's might, until it vanished.
When Chang Wei opened his eyes again, he found that his consciousness had returned to the laboratory, and he seemed to have never left, still raising his hand as if to slap Alice in the face.
"You...what are you doing? Why are all these grown men holding me down on the operating table? No way? The dream isn't over yet? Let me go! I can't keep up with my nutrition. Hiss! It hurts! What happened? My face hurts!"
A panicked tremor escaped Alice's mouth. Chang Wei looked at her and nodded, "It seems she has returned to normal. The exorcism was very successful. The Emperor is mighty!"
"Exorcism? What the hell is going on? Why is there a burning pain on my face? It hurts like hell!"
Seeing that Alice was about to cry in pain, Chang Wei quickly ordered someone to take her downstairs for treatment, while he took back the "Emperor's Sword".
Before leaving, he told Alice: "I'll come and talk to you again after you've recovered from your injuries."
After she left, Chang Wei looked at the "Emperor's Sword" in his hand, and combined with the evil god Slaanesh and Alice's experience in the illusion just now, he instantly figured something out.
"So that's how it is. With the blessing of the Emperor's Sword, and the fact that neither I nor the Lightseeker possess any soul projections in the Warp, Slaanesh can only reach me and seduce and corrupt me through those around me. And Alice, who has a connection to me, is a trap set by Slaanesh. With this favor from a fellow time traveler, Slaanesh suspects I won't remain indifferent. Otherwise, if they send any great demon, Alice, knowing the true name of the evil god, will be instantly sacrificed and turned into a demon-spewing "portal.""
"Hehe, but I'm not Horus. Birthday celebrations or anything like that are out of the question! Besides, the Emperor has already suffered a loss on this path once. Would he not learn his lesson and suffer a loss a second time?"
However, there's one thing I can't wrap my head around. With the Emperor's Sword in hand, why didn't the Emperor help me break Slaanesh's illusion right from the start? Was it just to show off at the end? It's impossible!
Chang Wei recalled the emperor's last appearance. His armor was tattered, his muscles were exposed, and he looked like he had just finished a fight and rushed over in a hurry. He couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
[Could it be that the four great evil gods have begun to cooperate? Are the other evil gods helping to delay the Emperor, thereby covering up Slaanesh's plan?]
[Very likely! Wasn't that what happened during the Horus Heresy? How much do you despise the Emperor that you're trying to repeat the same old tricks?]
[Good fellow! Seeing that I won't leave the Warp, they're planning to implement a scientific and physical exorcism across the entire galaxy. So they're teaming up to get me! Their attempts to corrupt and win me over failed this time, so I guess they'll try to take my life next time?]
This incident gave Chang Wei a lot of thoughts and ideas. The truth might be very different, but the logic was not seriously flawed. In short, he should be cautious with this kind of ridiculous, unscientific idealism! After all, this wasn't an area he was familiar with. What if someone cursed him to death while he was light years away? Who would he turn to?
Therefore, we still have to rely on the emperor's protection.
After a while, Alice was finally treated and sent over. Although she was still very weak and hadn't eaten properly for a while due to her coma, she was still able to communicate.
But Chang Wei was also a casual person. After noticing her rumbling stomach, he simply took her to the ship's canteen for dinner, ready to chat while eating. By the way, he told the cooks to cook two more dishes.
Soon, a table of home-cooked dishes from Earth was served, and Alice's eyes were filled with tears as she ate.
Although it wasn't mealtime yet, seeing how heartily the other person was eating, Chang Wei simply filled his bowl with fragrant white rice, picked up a handful of spicy and sour chicken offal, and began to eat. While chewing, he spoke.
"I don't know where you're from or what dietary restrictions you have. So I just asked the cook to make a dish of Hunan and a dish of Cantonese. Adding that to today's canteen food, it makes a perfect combination of four dishes and a soup. It's just a work lunch, so just make do with it."
Perhaps it was because she hadn't eaten the food from her hometown in so long, or perhaps it was because her previous escape from the devil had made her heart so fragile that she choked up and burst into tears at Chang Wei's ordinary words of concern.
Chang Wei couldn't stand the sight of his female-looking fellow villager crying in front of him. He quickly pulled out a few napkins and handed them to her, letting her wipe her nose herself. At the same time, he began to change the subject.
