Chapter 809 Reunion with Veronica
After two months of traveling in subspace, Soshyan finally approached his long-lost hometown.
But as soon as it escaped from the subspace and left the jump node of the Nessen system, it was located in front of the fleet. The Unbound Soul was the first to discover the invaders' signal.
The information was quickly transmitted back to the fleet. In just a moment, every warship was in combat mode, with gun emplacements deployed and torpedoes in storage.
However, the strange alien ship that suddenly appeared did not take any obvious hostile actions. In the end, it was the Unbound Soul that first sensed the existence of the enemy ship - the scanning officer spent a lot of effort to keep the signal stable. Because it keeps appearing and disappearing on the display.
Repeated greetings were met with static, and fleet astropaths reported that their warp vision was inexplicably impaired.
Finally, the fleet's reconnaissance plane entered the field of view of the lone ship, which showed a blurry outline on the screen.
Its true size is difficult to measure precisely, but meditators on the ship estimate that it is between 9 and 14 kilometers long, a huge triangular sheet curling over the hull like a billowing sail. .
When this scene became clear in the center of the observation cabin, a clear voice speaking in perfect Imperial Gothic rang through the ship's communication system.
“My name is Eldral Uslan.”
The voice is standard and elegant High Gothic, without any dialect or homophony at all, comparable to textbook-level correct pronunciation.
"In the name of Uthvi, I would like to ask the Master of the Astral Knights Chapter to come to the planet you call Nessen Six for a briefing."
Hearing this news, Sosh Yang was a little shocked. He didn't expect a group of aliens to appear in front of him so brazenly. Could it be that the message he conveyed to others was so kind?
But thinking of Velez, who was already in danger, Soshyan decided to meet the oldest and most powerful prophet of the Eldar.
This was a private operation, without informing the Blood Angels. Soshyan took only Talos alone and quietly arrived on the ground of Nessen 6 in the Thunder Eagle.
This place is still the same as it was twenty years ago, cold and deserted.
According to the coordinates provided by the other party, the Thunder Eagle stopped at the top of a low slope. When the slope opened, Soshyan walked out first.
He was wearing finely crafted power armor, a cloak shining brightly in the afterglow, and his helmet was placed under his arm. Talos followed him out.
Both of them chose to come with weapons, and Soshyan's Holy Flame Sword hung on his waist.
Soon, Soshyan saw a figure under a dead tree. When he approached, the robed Ada stood up steadily from the ground, with a vague smile on his face. expression.
Behind him, Veronica made a face at Soshyan.
“Welcome.”
The prophet, whose face showed no signs of age, gave a weird alien salute.
"Are you Eldral Uslan?"
Soshyan asked curiously and raised his fist in return.
"Yes."
Aldral smiled slightly and turned to look at Veronica.
"Hasn't my student introduced me to you? She has also been taking care of you a few days ago."
After saying that, the Eldar Prophet moved his eyes to Talos next to Soshyan immediately tilted his head in greeting. This action was full of hostility.
The Eldar Prophet was not impressed and returned the favor in the same way.
"Midnight's son, we are old acquaintances who have never met before."
"Indeed, I don't want to tear your soul stone out of your chest all the time."
Talos is as pale as a corpse. There was a cruel smile on his face.
"Killing those bitches of yours is far from satisfying me."
Veronica couldn't help but grit her teeth because of the cruel implications.
"Silly big guy, why did you have to bring him here."
"It's okay."
Before Soshyan could speak, Eldral said first:
< br>"I don't mean any disrespect, I just want to establish a dialogue based on equality. The past is in the past. Talos of the Tenth Claw is dead. What we are facing is Talos of the Astral Knight, not "
Talos snorted, noncommittal.
Soshyan nodded and said:
"Your point of view is very good. Although I don't trust aliens, it has no impact on our communication."
"Hypocrisy."
Veronica glared at Soshyan.
But the other party obviously didn't want to provoke her for the time being. He didn't even look at her, and his attention was on Eldral.
"Since you are called the Great Prophet, are you the leader of the Craftworld?" "Usvi does not have a so-called formal leader, but relies on what I think you call a parliament."
“So you represent the parliament?”
“When you negotiate with me, you are negotiating with Usvi.”
“Okay, I understand, then you What is the purpose of this negotiation? ”
"Two things."
Aldral raised two fingers and said softly:
"The first thing is, I heard that an important friend of yours has been possessed by a spirit. Poison?"
"Yes."
Soshiyang admitted frankly that he actually guessed that it might be related to this, but deep down he was not willing to owe the alien a favor.
But when the time came, he couldn't refuse.
"Veronica can treat your friend, and I agree to it."
"Tell me your conditions."
Elder Lar blinked, then nodded and smiled:
“Have you always been so direct?”
"I just feel that there is no need to beat around the bush between us."
"This is not a bad way. I know that you got a fragment of Bloody Kane in that place."
So Shi Yang frowned, that thing was still lying in his backpack.
So he took out a small metal box from his backpack.
“Is this it?”
As soon as Eldral's box was opened, a strong chilling air roared out, shocking everyone present.
"This is not just a fragment of Kane, this is a piece of essence combined with the fragment of Doomsday Wail. No wonder, no wonder."
Nodding thoughtfully, Ling The clan prophet closed the box and handed it to Soshyan with a look of surprise.
"You——"
"The second thing, Comoros may have set its sights on you, so be careful in the near future."
"Why?"
Soshiyan asked, expecting more than just an answer.
“I don’t need it, but some people need it.”
“Isn’t this your greatest treasure?”
“For some people it is, but with me In my case, it was more like a curse, but in your case, it might be able to play other roles.”
Soshyan frowned and took the box. He could not understand this alien prophet more and more.
"Let's stop talking today. Veronica will follow you to treat your friend. I hope you can protect her during this time."
Hearing from Elder Soshyan nodded at Lal's words. Although he thought the second half of the other person's sentence was somewhat meaningful, he didn't think much about it.
On the contrary, Talos's eyes suddenly became a little wandering, as if he was thinking about something.
"I will do my best to protect her, and when the treatment is over, I will return her to you unharmed. This is my promise."
Eldral took a step back and waved his hand gently.
"Veronica, I have wronged you these days."
Veronica nodded.
"It's okay, teacher, you don't have to worry."
Then, Eldral's figure began to gradually become indifferent, but just before he disappeared completely, he suddenly asked Soshyan Make a tiny whisper.
"Soshyan, you must remember these words when facing the Necrons, use your power with caution."
Not long after he disappeared, news came from the battleship in orbit, that The intermittent alien battleship signal disappeared.
