Chapter 01: 001, Rorschach's Warhammer Simulator
Solar system, Earth.
North America, United States.
Chinatown, New York.
At nine o'clock in the morning, on the sofa of an old apartment, Rorschach had a solemn expression.
His true identity was a time traveler, a foreigner.
If it weren't for the explosive news on TV that Stark Industries closed its weapons department.
Rorschach would have thought he had come to a parallel world.
Rorschach is just a movie lover and a comic book cloud reader.
The characters and plots that are familiar to fans of superhero movies.
For him, it is just a vague memory.
Rorschach tried his best to recall, but could only remember a few important nodes in the plot.
For example, the battle of New York with thousands of casualties.
And the rise and fall of Ultron with unknown casualties...
And the final battle in which Thanos killed half of the universe's population with a snap of his fingers!
As his thoughts turned, Rorschach couldn't help but shudder!
After all, watching superhero movies is a pastime.
Experiencing it in person is another matter.
Not to mention, the Rorschach who traveled through time and space only merged the memories of an ordinary teenager with the same name and surname, whose parents died.
He has no money, no power, and no superpowers.
Now, Rorschach can only choose to live in the home of his guardian aunt.
He helps out in his aunt's Chinese restaurant in his free time every day, and collects a little tip from customers, trying to save up tuition for college.
Rorschach is not without the idea of running away.
As long as he maxes out his aunt's credit card and saves tuition, a plane ticket to the Asian continent is more than enough.
Maybe, Rorschach will have a chance to meet the Ancient One of Kamar-Taj and become a magic apprentice.
Even if his identity as a traveler is accidentally discovered and he is invited to drink tea by the S.H.I.E. Bureau.
It is much better than becoming a statistic in the Battle of New York.
However, Rorschach, who has merged the memory of 'Rorschach'.
For the aunt who took care of him since he was a child, the emotional connection between blood and water cannot be cut off.
Moreover, the rashly changed living environment and the stubborn emotions unique to middle-aged people.
It was not something that a young man like Rorschach could handle.
So, Rorschach, who was quick-witted, could only advance part of the tuition and rent the basement of the old apartment.
He borrowed tools from his neighbors and repeatedly reinforced it with steel and wooden boards.
And stored a lot of food and fresh water.
At the same time, Rorschach also hoped that when the New York War broke out, he and his aunt would still be at home and everything would be safe and sound.
The wall clock in the apartment turned, and the time was half past nine.
Rorschach got up and planned to go out and start the regular routine of the day.
In the morning, it was part of the last year of high school.
In the afternoon, he needed to help his aunt run the Chinese restaurant business.
In the evening, Rorschach had to continue to reinforce the basement.
The borrowed tools also needed to be returned as soon as possible, and time was quite tight.
"Huh?"
At this moment, a series of garbled letters suddenly flashed before Rorschach's eyes, like an illusion.
[Warhammer 40K: Life Simulator Starting——]
[Do you want to start the first simulation? ]
Warhammer 40K?
This is not a tabletop battle flag game.
Is it a future science fiction IP built together with cultural creations such as novels, comics, games, animations, etc.?
Rorschach frowned slightly, very confused.
In his previous life, he was just a Warhammer cloud kid.
The main channel for learning about Warhammer is the video website Bilibili.
A series of high-quality videos of Warhammer stories produced by UP host Colonel Dutch.
After entering the pit, he occasionally read some detailed articles on famous battles and the background stories of some characters.
Rorschach is still clear about the basic story lines and the general composition of various races in the Warhammer universe.
But let him tell in detail what battles happened on a certain planet.
Or who is the mastermind behind a certain incident, etc.
Rorschach can only say that he is blind.
However, for Rorschach, why is the gold finger of the time traveler related to the Warhammer universe?
That is a dark, ignorant, desperate universe full of demons and snakes!
Chaos is rampant, the empire is corrupt, and the alien civilization is eyeing it covetously!
Any hope is just a tiny spark that can delay the destruction of the entire universe...
If all travelers are given a choice.
I'm afraid only mentally confused masochists will choose the Warhammer universe.
Moreover, even after the masochists come.
Will they cry like a fart whose toes have been stepped on?
At this moment, Rorschach was confused.
But this did not prevent him from worrying about his life safety.
In order to live a better life, he has to gamble with his golden finger.
[Simulation starting——]
[You have come to the Warhammer universe]
[Time: unknown]
[Location: Milky Way (unknown star field)]
[The moment you stepped on the surface of the planet, the subspace vibrated unknownly, and the eyes of the four gods of chaos fell on you. ]
[You hold your head with both hands and kneel down to wail. ]
[xxxxxx appears in your mind (shielded)]
[Your skull exploded. ]
[You are dead. ]
[This simulation ends in fifteen seconds. 】
【This simulation failed to retain any options. 】
【This simulation time is less than 24 hours, simulator loss has been exempted. 】
This... is dead?
Rorschach blinked, looking bewildered.
He seemed to have not yet recovered from the fleeting death.
Even if this is the universe of Warhammer 40K, the difficulty of survival is too great, right?
"The Four Chaos Gods!"
Rorschach stared at the text on the simulator and suddenly understood everything.
"I know too much about the Warp..."
The Four Chaos Gods, also known as the Warp Evil Gods.
During the outbreak of the Heavenly War between the Necrontyr and the Ancients, they were born in the Warp because of the negative emotions of countless intelligent life in the universe.
So far, Chaos is immortal and the Four Chaos Gods are immortal.
The more chaotic the Warhammer universe is, the more powerful the Four Chaos Gods will be.
And the more powerful the Four Chaos Gods are, the more chaotic the Warhammer universe will be.
For 40,000 years, there is no hope, only war.
"Can I block my memory?"
Rorschach tentatively asked the simulator.
Unfortunately, the simulator is just a tool, not a system that works all the time.
"I just don't believe this evil!"
Rorschach's stubborn temper came up.
He didn't plan to go to class, so he sat back on the sofa.
[Simulation starting——]
[You have arrived in the Warhammer universe]
[Time: Unknown]
[Location: Milky Way (unknown star field)]
[The moment you stepped onto the surface of the planet, you began to pray desperately to the Emperor. The warp shook again, and the eyes of the four gods fell on you again. ]
[Your prayers to the Emperor seemed to have no effect. ]
[You held your head with both hands and knelt on the ground wailing. ]
[You are on the verge of death, and in a trance, you seem to see a cold sun shining on your soul...]
[Your skull exploded. ]
[You are dead. ]
