Chapter 1178 The Soul-Destroying Messenger
"The Soul-Destroying Messenger——"
Soshiyang stepped forward and cautiously reached out to touch the cold arm of a robot.
At that moment, he had various feelings: the darkness before and after the battle, the dark void dripping with oil between the startup and shutdown, and through his unconscious eyes, he saw a group of Enemies fell before its weapons, and an eternal war was fought without regard for cause or effect.
As the robot started up, new life was injected into its vein-like cables. Tracking the surging energy back to its source, Soshyan noticed a rapidly expanding sense of purpose. It's because the combat program is gradually coming online, and the synthetic cerebral cortex is processing the orders that will send it into the battlefield.
But the journey came to an abrupt end when he discovered that there was a higher consciousness in this machine, a spark generated between countless circuits and valves.
A terrible and strong desire for destruction occupies this mechanical mind.
He saw a green grid crystal as smooth as a mirror embedded in the robot's cerebral cortex. A ball of flame danced in the crystal. The energetic will covered the robot's childish tactical chip and turned it All sensing nodes are linked together and operate together under unified command.
The bright and scorching flames expanded rapidly, then quickly contracted, and finally turned into a wriggling mass of liquid metal.
“This——”
Soshiyang suddenly retracted his hand like an electric shock. He stared at the machine with wide eyes, and the machine also looked at him clearly -
Yes, he actually had a mental relationship with the machine in this way. The link, and controlled it, gained its sight and perception. If he were not a space warrior with superhuman thinking and analysis power, otherwise this sudden link would probably cause damage to his brain.
Surprised, he turned to Elena, but she nodded towards him.
"That's it, they will be like your arms and limbs, but you still need familiarity and a certain degree of multi-threaded thinking training."
Saul rubbed his fingers aside, He had been observing Soshyan, and then said:
"Much like Perturabo's iron ring robots, they are also connected to the original body's thoughts. It is said that the traitorous original body can control hundreds of combat robots at the same time with the help of his arms and fingers."
Elena chuckled.
"The iron ring is just a pile of scrap metal in front of the lost souls. When they fight together, even the demon primarch will kneel down."
Taros, who has been observing the robots, Suddenly he seemed to have discovered something, and his face almost hit the chest of a robot, and then his expression suddenly changed.
"Surprisingly - they are not metal!"
Soshyan was stunned for a moment.
“What did you say?”
“They are not made purely of metal.”
Taros lightly tapped the robot’s chest and looked at Elen Na.
“What’s added to it?”
"Black Stone."
Taros's eyes widened.
“The Eleven Primarchs actually mastered the art of casting Black Stone? Since the Empire discovered the Black Stone, countless people have wanted to use it, but no one has been able to successfully create a Black Stone product. What exactly did the Eleven Primarchs do back then? What deal did you make with the alien?”
“Midnight’s Son, there are some things you shouldn’t ask.”
Talos snorted and walked aside in frustration, then crossed his arms. Lean against the wall, close your eyes and wonder what you are thinking.
Soshiyang felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere, but he didn't know what to say. He could only walk to the other side of the cabin, where there was a row of stasis fields that were still open, with black bodies floating in them, with heads in the shape of A three-sided spear.
“What is this?”
“The Spear of Silence is a weapon prepared by His Majesty for the Gloomy Guards. They are added with black stone and some special materials, and can be destructive to subspace creations. Damage, and once the physical creature is hit, all heat will be drained."
"Does it have requirements for the user?"
"Yes, if there is no one on the body. Gray marrow, then it will suck away the heat from the body.”
Speaking of this, Soshiyang suddenly heard another thing, and then mentioned the White Temple to Elena, as well as the deteriorated gray marrow they used.
After listening, Elena rarely showed some surprise. "Is there anything else? Your Majesty did find that gray marrow may deteriorate, but the Anni Guard project had not yet been launched at that time, so this characteristic was not dealt with in time. Unexpectedly, it would turn out like this, so they must not deteriorate during the transplant. It’s gray.”
Soshiyang nodded.
"It has stopped."
"Manticore is led by Captain Douda Goodman of the 'Death Comet'. Unexpectedly, their bloodline has continued to this day."
"Huh?"
Soshiyang suddenly frowned.
“Isn’t it Captain Said?”
Hearing this name, Elena’s body visibly stiffened.
It was only then that Soshiyang suddenly realized that Elena had never mentioned Said from beginning to end, and she had no concern at all.
So he asked further.
“Ms. Elena, don’t you know Said?”
“I don’t know him.”
“How is this possible? Isn’t he the first company commander? ?”
"The legion didn't have a company at all back then. How could it have a company commander? At its peak, the legion had a total of ninety-nine thousand-man companies, but I don't remember any thousand-man commander named Said."
So Shi Yang looked at each other in surprise, then turned to look at Sol.
Thor then sighed softly.
“No one knows who it is, but at least it helped you get to this day, which means it has no ill intentions towards you and the Eleventh Legion, at least for now.”
“Maliciousness is often packaged in Under the hypocrisy.”
Elena's cold voice interrupted Sol's words, and then she looked at Soshiyang and whispered:
"The secrets of the Legion have been unearthed. Apart from me and Mu Hu, you can no longer trust anyone. If you have to trust a third person, the only one is Midnight's Son."
Talos raised his head and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Soshiyang's mind is now shrouded in many questions and layers of fog. It stands to reason that after finding the flagship and confirming the return of the legion, his vision should become clearer.
But on the contrary, many things he believed in in the past have been subverted without any explanation.
"The original body. Were you planning something with the Master?"
Hearing these words, Thor frowned, Talos' eyes moved slightly, and Elena lifted the black veil in front of her. , his eyes were fixed on Soshiyang, then he glanced at Sol, and said softly:
"I will explain to you in detail in the future when it is just the two of us."
Halfway through the sentence , Elena suddenly stopped, and then changed into a puzzled tone.
"Mu Hu just sent a message, it received a distress signal."
"Distress signal? Is it a message from an Astropath or something else?"
Soshiyan was not surprised at first. The empire was at war all the time, and many worlds died in obscurity for various reasons. , no one knew what happened until the destruction, so distress signals often floated in the subspace, many of which may have been drifting for decades or even hundreds of years.
"No, Mu Hu cannot receive the Astropath signal. It is an electromagnetic signal, and it is very new. It comes from a war group."
"Huh? Which war group?"
< br>"The message from Mu Hu is. Crimson Saber."
"Ah!?"
Hearing this name, Soshyan and Talos both made surprised sounds, and even Thor raised his eyebrows.
