This was the first time Soshyan saw the Forbidden Army wearing black armor. He had never heard of the existence of such an Imperial Army before.
The aircraft they were riding in was also completely dark. Since the request had been made in advance, only Soshyan came to face them. At the same time, all personnel on the road to his designated warehouse were also cleared.
After confirming that the person coming was Soshyan, two Forbidden Soldiers wearing black clothes with gold edges walked out of the aircraft's open cabin one after another. Their footsteps were silent, like two moving groups. Shadow, the two of them always maintained a posture of holding their weapons tightly during this process, and the halberds they held were also dim.
There is a huge black metal cargo box sandwiched between them, a little taller than Soshyan. The four corners are carried by four weird three-legged machines, and the sound of anti-gravity fields can also be heard. Buzz.
The outer shell of the cargo box is wrapped with chains, and is also engraved with characters that Suoshiyang does not recognize. There is a magnetic blocker installed in the middle of the top, bottom, left, right, front and rear sides, and the four weird Soshyan felt some familiar fluctuations in the three-legged robots - they were all equipped with anti-psionic devices.
"Please follow me."
The other party did not speak, so Soshyan took the initiative to lead the way.
Trajan repeatedly emphasized that he must put down his things in a safe place. Soshyan simply chose his personal armaments room, where Fentian was hidden. He did not believe that anything could be put down in Fentian. Is everything in front of you turned upside down?
Since the road has been cleared, there is no one along the way, only the sound of slight footsteps. During this process, Soshiyang felt that the other party's eyes were not on him. The two mysterious black-armored forbidden soldiers were always watching. The cargo box seemed to contain something terrible that could destroy the world, and they had to keep a close eye on it.
The two forbidden soldiers didn't speak, and Soshyan didn't know what to say, so he walked to the armaments room in weird silence.
It wasn't until the door to the armament room was closed that a forbidden soldier finally spoke.
"Chapter Master Soshyan Alexey, although I have no right to know why it was sent to you, as its caretaker, I have an obligation to inform you of its dangers."< br>
“Danger?”
Soshyan looked at the huge cargo box.
"Could it be that Marshal Trajan sent a demon here."
"Far more dangerous than the devil, this is an S-class object in the dark dungeon. From the day I joined the Shadow Guard, I have been monitoring it every second."
Dark Dungeon, Soshiyang Attention When he came to this term, he speculated that this was probably a secret dungeon or warehouse in the palace, used to store certain dangerous things, and the guards of this warehouse were these forbidden soldiers wearing black armor, who called themselves Shadow Guards.
“What is it called?”
“Dark Flame Holy Grail.”
“Dark Flame Holy Grail? It sounds like an artifact. Why is it so dangerous?”
>
"I don't know. I have been told since the day I monitored it that it is extremely dangerous and will cause a terrible disaster once it leaves the dungeon, but now it still leaves the dungeon."
Soshiyan really wants to come. What is said is equivalent to not being said.
Seeing that Soshiyang did not seem very nervous, the imperial guard looked a little anxious, and immediately said:
"You must be more vigilant, or simply don't open it. . ”
“If this is the case, Marshal Trajan should not have sent it here. Since he sent it here, it means that either it is not that dangerous, or I can handle it.”
With that said, Soshyan walked towards the container.
"Please be careful."
The imperial guard instinctively stretched out his hand as if to push Soshyan away, but he immediately realized that his behavior was out of bounds, so he retracted his hand , but still staring at the container.
Soshiyang seemed to have discovered something interesting. He looked at the Forbidden Army and asked:
"Brother the Forbidden Army, what is your name?"
The other party was silent and did not answer immediately.
Just when Soshyan thought he had hit a wall, the other party suddenly whispered:
“Just call me Porphyrius.”
“Ah, Porphyrius. Philius, since you are so worried, how about you stay a little longer and watch me open it myself?”
Porphyrius didn’t say anything, still staring at the container, but simply. Shi Yangquan assumed that the other party had acquiesced, so he walked aside and found the observation hole that Trajan had mentioned.
He opened the observation hole a finger wide and looked inside through the thick glass. The inside of the container was filled with light gray liquid, and a cup-shaped object could be vaguely seen suspended in it. "If you ask too much, what is the liquid in this?"
"Filtered and purified spinal fluid of inaccessible persons."
Soshiyang's eyes twitched after hearing this How much spinal fluid does a person have after being pumped? This is a big box full, how many untouchable people have been pumped
The key is that this thing still has a shelf life, even if it is stored at low temperature, it must be replaced. That is to say, in order to seal the thing inside, the untouchables need to be continuously consumed, just like the throne needs to burn psykers every day.
In a sense, this palace is really a bottomless pit that cannibalize people.
"How should I open it?"
The two Imperial Guards looked at each other, then walked to both sides of the box, each stretched out a finger and inserted it into a slot. After a few seconds Porphyrius turned to Soshyan and said:
"Are you really going to open it now?"
"Yes, don't worry."
"Please come here."
Following the other party's instructions, Soshyan walked to the operating table where the container was unfolded.
“Aim your eyes here, Marshal Trajan has collected your pupil information.”
Soshyan aimed his eyes at the instrument, and soon heard a low mechanical sound .
“Operating instructions, contact, wait.”
"Open."
"Executing."
With a pop, the top of the container opened slightly, and the icy cold air overflowed from inside. Soshiyang also activated the gray marrow. .
At the same time, the two Forbidden Soldiers also clenched their weapons with both hands, maintaining a fighting posture and staring at the container.
Amidst the sound of mechanical friction, four metal tentacles coiled out from the opened hole, and "arched" out the thing dripping with viscous spinal fluid.
It looked about the size of Soshyan's palm, and its outline resembled a ceremonial cup used by the state religion, with layers of scroll strips wrapped around it.
Soshyan stepped forward and stretched out his hand, and then the thing was gently placed on his hand.
There were no surprises, so calm that the two Forbidden Army seemed a little confused, but Soshyan's next move made them scream in surprise.
“Wait a minute——”
Soshiyang, who was about to tear off the scroll strips, heard the shouts of the two people and turned his head.
"What's wrong?"
"What are you going to do?"
"Let's see what it looks like? I feel like this thing may not be as dangerous as you say"
"No! It's dangerous! I'm sure!"
Porphilius's voice sounded a little angry, as if some of his firm beliefs were denied by Soshyan.
"Then I have to take a look."
At this time, another imperial soldier held Porphyrius's shoulders, and then shook his head. The meaning was obvious -
No interference Soshyan's behavior.
