Zuo Si asked with a serious expression.
He was currently standing under the half-finished Transdimensional Beacon, looking up at the hundreds of thousands of New Phyrexian creations who were continuously constructing complex metal structures so that the top of the tower could reach the highest floating Planeswalker Spark.
Although the ignited spark looked like only a very faint bright spot due to its great distance, anyone with slightly poor eyesight might ignore it.
But as a planeswalker, Zuo Si could feel the huge energy from it.
That is the result of a weak connection with thousands of space-times throughout the multiverse, and it is also the reason why it can continue to sustain this consumption.
Otherwise, when one spark collides with another and ignites, the energy stored inside will soon be exhausted and extinguished.
"Um... about fourteen days. Also, this spark was ignited by Jinjitaxia, and has nothing to do with me."
The diary carefully gave an exact number.
"Fourteen days? You didn't even think of informing me after fourteen days!"
Zuo Si turned around abruptly with a scary look in his eyes.
The diary quickly argued, “It’s not my fault.
Because there was no problem at all before.
Jinji Tasha and I captured almost all the planeswalkers who teleported over, and not even one managed to escape.
And we have also collected more than fifteen Planeswalker Sparks for you.
The most important thing is that Jinji Tasha's research is nearing completion, and he will be able to create a complete planeswalker soon.
We all know that this is the key to New Phyrexia surpassing Old Phyrexia, and it is also one of the necessary chips to win the War of the Spark.
I have no reason not to support him.”
But Zuo Si grabbed the diary by the neck and asked, "Do you know that lighting it means exposing the location of the floating city of Mutahar? Do you know what the consequences will be if you send a large amount of knowledge to the entire multiverse through it? The time and space and universe that we were originally familiar with may have begun to move completely towards the unknown under the influence of this information!
You are undermining and even destroying the huge advantages we have.
From now on, we will have to deal with an unpredictable runaway multiverse.
Even time and space will undergo some unpredictable changes as a result.
In comparison, Ashiok's appearance is nothing."
There is no doubt that the impact of the Super Space-Time Beacon Tower being put into operation ahead of schedule is undoubtedly unprecedented.
Even if we put aside the fact that it attracted the attention of planeswalkers throughout the multiverse, the knowledge that was spread out alone was enough to create a huge wave.
Although Zuo Si has not yet checked how many worlds the spark floating above his head is connected to, and how the states of these worlds have changed as a result.
But what is certain is that even if dozens or even hundreds of people in each time and space receive part of it, the world they live in will definitely not be peaceful, and it is even more impossible for it to continue to develop according to the original script as if it were not affected by external factors.
Whether it is the issue of benefit distribution brought about by technological leaps, the powerful individual power brought about by magical knowledge, or the potion that can cure all diseases and achieve immortality, it will definitely lead to fierce fighting and even destructive war.
Fourteen days was enough time for a spreading effect to occur, and it was too late to save the situation even if one wanted to.
It must be said that what Jinji Tasha and the diary did in private really made Zuo Si feel a little annoyed.
Although he has always encouraged his subordinates to exercise subjective initiative and granted them a great deal of autonomy, he never expected that these two guys would come up with such a big move.
The diary shrugged innocently and muttered, "What's the point of talking about it now after it's already happened? You should find a way to remedy the situation as soon as possible. I'm really afraid that Nicol Bolas or Ugin will suddenly teleport here, and then we'll be in big trouble."
"Shut up! Do you still have the nerve to talk?"
Zuo Si glared at the diary unhappily, then flew straight into the air and stopped just one step away from igniting the spark, then stretched out a finger and gently pressed it on it.
moment!
The overwhelming amount of information and tens of billions of languages are like a tsunami, madly impacting the dam called reason.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have probably lost his mind and turned into a complete fool or even been brain dead by now.
Fortunately, Zuo Si was mentally prepared and activated his divine power and quasi-divine power to assist.
In just a few seconds, he classified and archived all the information, and confirmed the several time and space times and even universes that had already generated feedback.
Most of them are completely unfamiliar, but there are a few that are relatively familiar.
For example, the famous Marvel and DC universes, the extremely depressing and desperate Warhammer universe, and the Cthulhu mythology world, etc.
Since he had mastered some of the power of time, Zuo Si could clearly see the diary and the ripples caused by Jinji Tasha throwing stones into the darkness.
At this very moment, the priest in the Warhammer universe who thought he had been blessed by the omnipotent Mecha-God was being interrogated by the Great Sage sent by the Grand Sage Council, also known as the Grand Sage Council, at the Mars headquarters.
Along with the Archmagus was a Battle Sister from the Inquisition.
There is no doubt that in the power structure of this huge human interstellar empire, the above two organizations are undoubted powerful and even privileged groups.
There is no need to say much about the Mechanicus. All things related to technological research and development, weapons and equipment construction and production are under their control. They can also have independent armies, administrative agencies, and colonized planets.
Rather than being a department of the empire, they are more like half of the empire.
Without them, the human empire would not have been able to survive until now surrounded by powerful enemies.
The double-headed eagle in the Imperial symbol, one of the heads represents the Mechanicus, which shows how high their status and how much authority they have.
However, like all super-large organizations, there are many factions within the Mechanicus, and the "volume" is beyond imagination.
Disagreements and struggles between various schools and cliques are going on almost every moment, and the cruel elimination system can drive normal people crazy.
You must know that the members of the Mechanicus are not the traditional technicians who can only hide in the back and are powerless.
Not only do they have to conduct research and production, but they also have to frequently participate in wars. When necessary, there will even be situations where mechanical priests lead the charge. The mortality rate is not much lower than that of other combat troops.
As for the Battle Sisters of the Inquisition, they represent another organization comparable to the Mechanicus - the Ecclesiarchy.
As the name suggests, this organization is the largest religious organization in the human empire, and the object of its worship is none other than the emperor who has the power to compete with the evil gods of the warp.
Although the emperor himself has claimed more than once that he is not a god and has no intention of enslaving humans.
But as the Horus Heresy forced him to sit on the Golden Throne, his contact with the outside world became less and less, and he even became completely half-dead. This belief and worship was like a wild horse running wildly, and now it has become one of the three most powerful institutions in the Human Empire.
After all, this vast empire needs a supreme symbol to unite everyone and ensure that it will not fall into division or civil war.
The emperor of the empire who ended the dark ages for mankind is precisely the symbol that can convince everyone.
So this is essentially out of political necessity, and he will inevitably be deified whether he likes it or not.
What's more, in this universe where individual will is suppressed to the extreme and ordinary people can die a violent death and even their souls cannot rest in peace if they are not careful, people do need religion to purify their minds and alleviate the increasingly serious social contradictions.
In particular, the Inquisition under the State Church not only possesses the highest level of investigative power, but can also immediately skip general judicial procedures and execute targets as long as there is conclusive evidence.
Among them, the Battle Sisters are the subordinate combat forces of the Inquisition.
They are different from the stereotype of most people who wear black robes and have kind faces. They are a group of religious Space Marines. Not only are they equipped with power mechas, bolters and chainswords, but they also believe in the fanatical idea of "Praise the Emperor, load the ammunition, one of these two can purify heresy."
One can imagine what methods these women will use when dealing with so-called "heretics".
Some people whose mental states are twisted and perverted even enjoy torturing and killing prisoners.
Just from the fact that the Battle Sister and the Great Sage appeared at the same time, it can be seen that the top leaders of the empire attach great importance to this matter.
As for those Zerg that nearly conquered the entire colonized planet, they had already been torn into pieces by the rescue fleet that arrived later, and it is estimated that even their corpses have been dealt with by now.
Some insects that were lucky enough not to die were even captured alive and taken away for various cruel studies.
After all, due to the enormous pressure of survival, the humans in this universe are not saintly at all, and no one would have nothing better to do than to set up an animal protection organization.
Quite the opposite!
The entire empire advocates human supremacy.
Even contacting and cooperating with other races could result in being accused of treason and being executed directly.
Human life here is really just a series of numbers on a statistical list.
Even the military’s propaganda slogans are “Our lives are the emperor’s currency” and “Our duty is to die for the emperor”, which can almost be defined as anti-human brainwashing remarks of a cult.
Because if this is not done, the demons and evil gods in the Warp, the orcs, the Zerg, the Necrons and other enemies will swarm in to destroy the empire and completely wipe out the entire human race.
"Moore, I think you should know what a huge mistake you have made, right? After all, the Iron Man Rebellion that broke out in the Golden Age of Humanity has proved what terrible consequences will result from giving machines too much intelligence."
After a brief silence of a few minutes, the great sage broke the silence with a low electronic sound.
The golden age he mentioned refers to the period around the 26th millennium, when human technology developed to an incredible level, artificial intelligence and standardized production templates were applied to various fields, and even robots with independent thinking ability, creativity, and imagination could be mass-produced.
In that era, there were no flesh and blood in the human army. From ordinary soldiers to space battleships, all were replaced by robots and artificial intelligence.
There are even rumors that the power armor worn by Astartes Space Marines today were just ordinary industrial protective clothing back then. The Titan, known as the God's Machine, was just a multifunctional large-scale machine customized for colonizing planets. The space battleships built at that time had energy protection and protection systems against subspace erosion.
In short, all the technology and science today are merely the archaeology, restoration and restoration of the golden age of mankind.
This is also the general background for the birth of the Mechanicus.
Many times, they don’t even understand the principles behind some of the technological creations of the time, and simply copy and use them through some industrial mother machines.
It is precisely because there are so many things that cannot be explained that religions and cults of faith are born.
However, humanity's golden age did not last long.
Perhaps it was the influence of the evil god of the subspace, or perhaps it was some unknown reason, anyway, the robots created by humans suddenly broke out in a large-scale rebellion.
They want to completely destroy their creator.
Almost half of the Iron Men became rebels, while the rest continued to be loyal to humans.
The two sides launched a life-and-death battle in the vast universe.
In the end, they barely won the war with the help of other races.
Afterwards, humans quickly dealt with the robots that were still loyal to them, and artificial intelligence has become a taboo since then.
Not to mention further research and exploration, even existing technologies were abandoned and destroyed.
This is also the reason why the Human Empire, although it has become the overlord of the entire galaxy, is so backward in the field of artificial intelligence.
It’s not that the human technology tree is wrong, but that there have been very painful lessons in the past.
But the mechanical priest called Moore obviously did not intend to plead guilty. He still raised his head and stared with his two electronic eyes, retorting enthusiastically: "No! This is not a mistake, but a generous gift from the great mechanical god! It is different from those iron men who started the rebellion. It is a truly awakened machine soul."
"But the power used by that giant war machine comes from the subspace! How do you explain this?" The battle nun with short silver hair questioned.
"That's just a simple technology, just like the force field protection added to advanced power mechas. And the war machines I built were not targeted by the evil gods or demons of the subspace, right?"
Moore responded without giving in.
The reason why he had the confidence to argue with the dreaded Sisters of Battle was due to the privileges that the Imperial Emperor had granted to the Mechanicus.
As a priest of the Mechanicus, only the Archmagus from Mars can declare him guilty and impose the appropriate punishment.
The Inquisition at best oversaw the process and kept records.
The battle sister was obviously enraged by this unrepentant fellow who was still challenging her. There was a dangerous light flashing in her eyes, and one of her hands was already on the chainsaw sword of the power mecha, as if she could pull it out at any time and chop this bastard who had committed a heinous crime into pieces.
But she obviously forgot that the mechanical priest in front of her had transformed more than 95% of his body into mechanical structures. Even if he was cut into pieces, as long as the container containing the brain was not damaged, it would only take a few minutes to replace his body.
“That war machine is not just pure technology, there are some parts that cannot be explained by science.
For example, those mysterious symbols that can draw energy from the subspace, and his core that no longer requires any energy or fuel after it is activated.
These things are far beyond the level of technology we have today.
To be precise, it should belong to a completely different technical route.
Tell me who gave you this knowledge."
The great sage raised the axe-like object in his hand, which represented his identity and status, and stabbed it hard into the ground, making a dull thud.
The reason why he appeared on this remote colony planet was not actually because someone built a robot with powerful intelligence.
Because of the distribution of the Mechanicus across the vast territory of the Human Empire, such trivial "little things" are simply countless.
As long as it does not cause serious harm, it usually only requires a reprimand from the immediate superior and then forced to destroy his creation.
After all, all members of the Mechanicus are equipped with brain chips.
Therefore, the control of superiors over subordinates is absolute and cannot be violated.
Once the Great Sage issues an attack order through this chip, even if the low-level mechanical priests, mechanical servants and other subordinates are unwilling to execute it, they will march onto the battlefield and fight desperately with enemies that outnumber their own forces by several times or even dozens of times, until their entire army is wiped out in battle.
What really makes the Mars headquarters pay attention is where the complete technology used in this machine, which is completely different from human technology, comes from.
You should know that every technology has a gradual process from its birth to development.
Especially for those technologies that seem very advanced, there must be a strong civilization behind them that can support them.
And this is what the Mechanicus and the entire human empire are most worried about.
Moore's electronic cigarette began to flash wildly, and after a full minute he responded, "Of course it was the great God of Machinery! It was the almighty Ohm Messiah! He injected this knowledge into my brain. You have control over my brain chip and can check my memory. You should know that I did not lie about this matter."
"No! There is no omnipotent Mecha God in your memory. There is only a large amount of complex and incomprehensible information. I have no idea where it came from and how it was transformed into technology that you can understand in your brain."
There was a strong sense of anger in the Great Sage's tone.
This feeling, as if standing in front of the door of a treasury and unable to enter, made him, who was used to being superior to most members of the Mechanicus, feel extremely frustrated.
After all, every great sage is equivalent to the leader of his faction and a super scholar, and has unparalleled confidence and sense of superiority in his own intelligence.
Moore obviously noticed this as well and suddenly burst into laughter.
“Hahahaha! That’s because the almighty Mecha-God chose me, so no one except me can accept and understand this knowledge…”
Before the mechanical priest could finish his words, the huge robot fixed on the rack behind him like a lamb to be slaughtered suddenly interrupted and said, "No, the reason why you can understand this knowledge has nothing to do with the omnipotent mechanical god. It's just that your soul happens to be able to receive this frequency from other dimensions."
Before he finished speaking!
A stream of black grease quickly emerged from the body of the giant robot, devouring all the surrounding steel and mechanical parts at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just a few seconds, the metals were devoured and decomposed, and then underwent a series of complex reconstructions that were difficult to describe in words.
When everything was over, the originally huge robot and more than ten billion tons of alloy had been condensed into a metal human only two meters tall by some inexplicable force.
This horrific compression of matter creates a huge mass, which in turn produces gravity.
Especially the Great Sage whose whole body was transformed into machines, and the Combat Nun wearing power mecha, they all immediately felt a weak force field pulling them.
"Heretic! Who on earth are you?"
The Battle-Sister suddenly raised her bolter and aimed it at the tech-human's head and shouted.
But less than a second later, she found it unbelievable that the weapon in her hand suddenly began to emit black grease from its inside, which quickly decomposed the weapon and even the power mecha.
才一眨眼的功夫,就只剩下里边贴着皮肤呈现出满是肌肉线条身材的紧身衣了。
由于战斗修女虽然不像阿斯塔特那样接受过夸张的基因改造,再加上长期进行战斗训练,所以整体上的凹凸曲线还是相当不错的。
还没等周围其他反应过来发生了什么,金属人类便以可以无法解释的方式瞬间闪现到这位已经被解除武装的战斗修女面前,用略显轻佻的动作拂过对方的脸颊,最终手指停留在脆弱的颈部,面带微笑的说道:“冷静点,小姑娘,宗教狂热可不能解决任何问题。更何况你们的皇帝一直都在强调自己不是神,更不喜欢以神的名义来奴役自己的同胞。”
“异端!你也许可以杀了我,但绝对休想动摇我的信仰和意志!”
在说这句话的时候,战斗修女眼神中透露出视死如归的坚定。
很显然,与人类帝国许多的战斗人员早已经被洗脑一样,她经历过太多的战斗因此早就已经做好了随时为皇帝献身的准备。
在这群宗教狂热分子的眼中,这不仅仅是伟大的牺牲,同样也是一种殉道。
就在现场所有人都认为解除武装的修女会被这个不知名的生物杀死并血溅当场的时候,金属人突然松开了捏着脖子的大手,用宛如奖励小狗一样的动作拍了拍战斗修女的头顶,随即将其轻轻推开。
这显然是一个释放善意的信号。
同样也让原本做好牺牲准备的战斗修女有些懵逼,完全搞不懂对方究竟想要干什么。
毕竟在失去动力机甲之后,她也就是个稍微强壮且有经验一点的人类女性。
别说是对付一个由十几亿吨合金压缩成的未知生命,就连一个最低级的虫族炮灰都能轻而易举将其杀死。
“我想我们应该可以谈谈,你认为呢?”
金属人直接对在场权力和地位最高的机械神教大贤者发出了想要对话的信号。
不用问也知道,他就是透过超时空信标塔把意识降临过来的左思,而那些黑色的油脂正是已经经过不知道多少轮进化和改造的新烁油。
介于这个宇宙存在着太多的不太好确定威胁等级的势力,比如说统治了亚空间邪神、疑似被强大信仰塑造出来的人类帝国皇帝,还有以恒星、行星乃至灵魂为食,可以掌控现实宇宙规则的星神,以及打爆过星神的太空死灵和曾经跟他们爆发过第一次星际战争的古圣……
哦,差点还忘了来自其他星系的强大入侵者——泰伦虫族。
总之在搞清楚状况之前,左思并不打算贸然介入。
一方面是他的主力军团仍旧驻扎在艾泽拉斯星球所在的宇宙跟燃烧军团对峙,指不定什么时候就会突然爆发第二轮全面战争;
另外一方面是他所掌握的最强底牌之一“同兆”仍旧在冷却中。
所以左思打算先尝试着与人类帝国接触一下,看看能不能先达成某些交易或是合作。
机械神教的大贤者明显在犹豫,足足过了好几分钟才抬起头回应道:“我同意你的提议,但在此之前我们需要想知道你究竟是谁。”
“你可以称呼我为索斯,一个在不同宇宙穿梭的旅行者。
那位机械神甫脑海中所有的知识,都是我通过某种装置大范围发送的,用来确认不同宇宙所处的空间位置。
不出意外的话,以你们目前的人口基数和所控制的势力范围,应该至少有数千人接收到了。
当然,其他生活在这个宇宙的智慧生物应该也多少接收到了一些。
所以你可以把我视作一个慷慨的知识分享者。”
左思面带微笑的有选择性说出了部分真相。
“什么?你是说其他非人类种族也获取到了这些知识?”
大贤者的语气瞬间变得紧张起来。
左思微微点了点头:“是的。因为这种信号的传输是无差别的。只要满足相应的条件就能从中获取到知识的片段。”
“等等!你说知识的片段而非全部?”
大贤者猛地抬起头,两只电子眼不停地闪烁以彰显主人内心之中剧烈的情绪波动。
“没错。他所获取到的知识和金属仅有全部的不到万分之一。因为人脑的存储容量是有限的,一旦超过就会瞬间导致脑死亡或变成一个傻子。”
左思不动声色的抛出了第一个诱饵,那就是知识与技术。
这对于机械神教乃至整个人类帝国来说无疑具有莫大的吸引力。
正如他预料的那样,大贤者立刻对此产生了强烈的兴趣,用急不可耐的语气追问道:“那我们要如何才能获得全部呢?”
“全部?呵呵,你不觉得自己的胃口太大了一点吗?就连那位机械神甫之前打造智能机器人的技术都搞不明白,你觉得就算我把这些知识交给你们,你们又能看懂和理解多少?我建议你们先从这些黑色油脂开始研究。”
说罢,左思抬起手抓起在周围流淌的烁油放进一个容器中递了过去。
“烁油?”
大贤者下意识接住,并迅速动用自己身上的各种电子机械部件对其进行侦测,结果瞬间发现了其中的异常。
他尝试着把地上的一块废铁捡起来放进去。
没过一会儿功夫这块废铁就彻底别分解,然后重组成一个精密复杂的机械构装体,以极快的速度在周围不断爬行。
毫无疑问,这完全颠覆了在场所有人对于机械制造的认知。
那位只剩下紧身衣的战斗修女更是露出了惊恐和警惕的表情。
估计在她的眼中,这简直就是对整个人类帝国巨大的威胁。
一旦被烁油侵染腐蚀,即便是最强大的舰队和星际战士也会迅速因为失去武器装备而成为待宰的羔羊。
“这些油脂是一种小到几乎无法被观察到的纳米可编程材料?真是难以置信!它……他好像还拥有属于自己的意识!”
大贤者忍不住瞪大眼睛发出了惊叹。
在场没有人比他更清楚烁油所拥有的恐怖力量和巨大潜力。
“是的,我就是掌握烁油最高权限的主宰。如何,我想我已经展现出了足够的诚意,不是吗?”
左思张开双臂将周围传送过来的烁油全部吸纳进自己这具临时打造的钢铁身躯内,同时一把抓住那个不断乱跑的小小烁油造物。
“那您想要从我们这里得到什么呢?”
大贤者的语气明显变得恭敬了许多,继续小心翼翼的试探道。
因为他很清楚只要眼前这个未知的存在愿意,随时可以掀起一场恐怖的灾难,让那些依赖科技与钢铁的文明一夜之间回到原始石器时代。
左思抿起嘴角意味深长的回答道:“很简单,我想要你们最不缺的东西,那就是灵魂。”
灵魂?! 在场所有人听到这个词瞬间露出了异样的表情。
因为在这个宇宙中会对灵魂产生兴趣的势力只有一个,那就是亚空间邪神和他们手下的恶魔。
而人类帝国跟这些家伙的关系可谓是不死不休的仇敌。
由于在场的人压根没有心灵防护魔法或科技的保护,左思轻而易举便感知到了他们脑海中的想法,马上解释道:“别用那种眼神盯着我,我并不是亚空间邪神,对于灵魂的使用也不想他们那样邪恶残暴。刚好相反,我会把所有的灵魂送到自己统治的国度中,让他们在那里开始新的生活。”
说话的功夫,左思直接通过烁油凭空制造了一个立体投影装置,瞬间把巴托地狱第九层的巨大赛博朋克城市展示了出来。
毫无疑问,虽然这里作为一个倾向守序邪恶的地方,光鲜亮丽外表下隐藏着大量的罪恶,但即便如此也绝对比这个充满压抑和绝望的宇宙好太多。
起码在赛博朋克城市中,普通人可以尽情的发泄肉体上的欲望而不用担心被色孽盯上,无需害怕因为嗜血好战最终沦为恐虐的奴仆,更不会仅仅因为喜欢耍阴谋诡计不小心成为奸奇伟大计划中的一环。
可能唯一让在场帝国高层感到不爽的,可能就是居住在这里的种族并不仅仅只有人类,还有许多奇形怪状的异类。
要知道这个宇宙人类帝国庞大的疆域可不是充话费送的,而是通过铁与血的战争、屠杀、征服和占领殖民实现的。
在人类帝国扩张的过程中,数不清的种族被屠戮殆尽。
像某些群星战犯搞的什么外星人罐头、种子灭杀无一例外都是人类帝国玩剩下的。
其内部压根就没有什么鹰派鸽派之分,只有极端鹰派和更极端的鹰派。
对于非人类种族的态度也相当简单粗暴,那就是实力允许的情况下遇到一个消灭一个。
要是对方有一定反击和自保的能力,那就暂时维持脆弱的和平继续力量,等时机成熟再发动远征将其消灭。
Anyway, the idea that those who are not of my race must have different hearts has almost penetrated into the entire society and even the race.
"The exchange conditions you proposed are beyond my authority. I need to report to a higher level for instructions."
The great sage stared at the ever-changing images in the projection in silence for a long time before he spoke in response.
Although he himself did not think that there was anything wrong with sacrificing hundreds of trillions of lower-class civilians in exchange for more knowledge and technology with a total population of 400 trillion in the Human Empire, he even felt that the Empire was the one that made huge profits in this transaction.
But the problem is that he does not have the power to reach an agreement with an unknown powerful entity on behalf of the empire.
"No problem. I will wait for your reply on this planet. But I suggest you act quickly, because my patience is not infinite, and it is not just humans who want to trade with me in this universe."
After saying this, Zuo Si's body, which was made of compressed metal, disappeared instantly, as if it had never appeared.
After the Great Sage confirmed through a series of tests that Zuo Si had left, he turned around and asked, "Sister Kayla, do you have anything to say about this matter?"
The battle sister named Kayla shook her head solemnly. "No, I just want to report to the Inquisition immediately. No matter what the creature who calls himself Soth is, the power he possesses is obviously beyond our comprehension. Perhaps only the Lord Regent can make a judgment on this level of events."
"In that case, let's each report to our superiors. I hope the central authority can respond faster this time."
The great sage complained quietly about the empire's bloated, corrupt, and unresponsive administrative structure, then turned around and walked outside with his men.
Because Zuo Si swallowed up all the surrounding metal, this cell used to imprison mortals and the huge manufacturing center underneath have completely disappeared. Only a huge deep pit leading hundreds of kilometers deep into the earth's core remains, which looks extremely creepy.
But before he could take a few steps, Sister Kayla immediately called out from behind: "Your Excellency the Great Sage, please wait a moment. What do you want to do with Father Moore?"
"Whatever you want."
The great sage obviously did not want to waste time on this unimportant issue, and disappeared into the darkness after a while.
It goes without saying what kind of waves such a contact would cause within the human empire.
When the news reached the home planet Terra, Regent Robert Guilliman immediately convened an emergency meeting.
As Lord of the Ultramarines, one of the Emperor's transcendent creations, and the last surviving Primarch, he is the last hope for the Imperium of Man once the Emperor sits on the Golden Throne.
Thanks to the efforts of the regent, the corrupt bureaucratic system was able to achieve some improvements, the rebellion was able to be quickly suppressed, and the survival of the human empire was barely maintained.
"I believe you have all seen the intelligence sent back. Now, please express your own opinions and views. What attitude should we take towards this unknown existence?"
The Regent was the first to speak and break the silence.
As a life form with extraordinary wisdom and strength, he knew very well that he could not manage this crumbling empire by himself, so he needed to cultivate more loyal and capable subordinates to assist him.
Normally, when encountering problems and troubles, Robert Guilliman would not express his attitude immediately, but would try to let these carefully selected subordinates think first, in order to train them.
It was through these teachings and deeds that Terra, the home planet of the human empire, was able to slowly recover from a state of decline and survive a crisis of destruction.
But unfortunately, this time everyone present had a frown on their face and had no intention of speaking at all.
The reason is simple. Whether it is the Grand Sage of the Mechanicus or the Battle Sisters of the Inquisition, the information they pass back is very limited.
In particular, the mysterious substance called spark oil has not yet been sent to Mars for in-depth research.
In the absence of such evidence, how can we make effective and accurate judgments?
So it's no surprise that there was silence.
Just when the atmosphere at the meeting was becoming somewhat awkward, the only non-human female present stood up and said in a very pleasant voice: "I think since the other party has shown enough goodwill, we should at least try to contact and establish a trusting relationship. After all, if a powerful creature like this is willing to stand on our side, it can greatly improve the combat capability of the army and even find a way to defeat the evil god of the warp."
"Ms. Evelyne, please be careful with your words. We don't know yet whether the other party is kind or weird. What's more, what the other party wants to trade is the human soul!"
Another tall and strong man made a sarcastic remark.
It is not difficult to tell from his attitude that he does not like this non-human at all, or to be more precise, the leader of the Eldar Death Legion.
This race is somewhat similar to space elves, with longer limbs, perfect facial features, elegant almond eyes, and pointed ears. They have extremely high intelligence levels and can feel emotions much more strongly than humans.
They are one of the very few, or even the only race that has formed an alliance with the Human Empire.
As early as the Iron Man Rebellion, the two sides had formed an alliance together.
However, in the eyes of the elves with a long history, humans are just a group of monkeys who have just stepped into civilization from primitive times.
Even though the human empire has now become the overlord of the galaxy, this view is still deeply rooted in people's minds.
Likewise, there are some human supremacists within the Empire who dislike the Eldar, and even feel that this group of down-and-out people who were nearly wiped out have unknown intentions in secret.
Especially Evelyne, who is so close to the Imperial Regent Robert Guilliman. God knows if she wants to use her dirty and lowly body to steal the Primarch's precious genes, and then give birth to a hybrid offspring with powerful strength and wisdom.
