Hearing that Amnak suspected Asuryan's goal of arranging the souls of the Phoenix Kings, Soshyan thought for a moment and cautiously speculated:
"Protect the Holy Fire?"
"In Sha Before Lishi was born, do you think anyone could go from the heavily guarded capital of Ancient Edda to the even more heavily guarded capital, with more than fifty holy swordsmen and more than 16,000 holy magic swordsmen who could rival the human Malcador around the clock? Stealing this Holy Grail from the Phoenix Temple guarded by a famous Phoenix Guard? And this thing itself only contains a trace of Asuryan's holy fire, which is not something extraordinary to a god."
Soshiyang finished listening. He also frowned.
“Then you say so.”
"There is only one possibility. Asuyan knew that he would fall, so he arranged for the souls of the Phoenix Kings to guard the last holy fire, and they did hold on until you found this thing."
As he said, Amu Nak took a few steps back and forth, seeming to be thinking and anxious.
When he stopped, he looked at Soshyan.
“The master god Ada’s plan is very deep. I have a feeling that Xerxes, Malcador, including the Lord of Humanity, and us, are all included in it. Now think about it, It is a god after all, a god in the true sense, a level that even the lord of humanity has not yet reached. In this chess game, it may be one of the main players, and even the lord of humanity is just a pawn."
< br>“Is it that exaggerated?”
"Soshyan, have you ever heard of a bird called the cuckoo that lived in ancient Terra?"
"No."
"This bird never hatches its own eggs, it even They don’t know how to build nests.”
“Then how do they reproduce?”
“They lay their eggs in the nests of other smaller birds, and the cuckoo bird will most likely do so first. When hatched by other birds, the little cuckoo born later will instinctively push other eggs out of the nest, and the unaware owner will incubate it as its own child."
This metaphor gave Soshyan a creepy feeling, but Amnak then changed the subject.
“But it’s too early to say this now. Judging from what happened to you, this Holy Grail should have originally fallen into the hands of Shalish’s followers, and was desecrated, and then fell into the hands of the Lord of Humanity. , after you opened the seal, Salish immediately sent Fulgrim into the Holy Grail to devour the holy fire soul inside in advance. It can be seen that it cares about this, but now Salish's mark has been erased , it can no longer enter this Holy Grail. Make good use of it. No matter what Asuryan's plan is, we can just follow our own pace. And since the Lord of Mankind gave this to you, it means that he should already know it. It’s the inside story. If it doesn’t work, it won’t be a big problem if you ask him for help.”
Amnak said it very easily, and Soshyan also admitted that this was the only way for now.
“Should you say it or not, Soshyan, you have offended Fulgrim severely this time.”
Hearing Amnak’s words with a smile Ridiculing, Soshyan just shrugged indifferently.
"He is already a lackey of Slaanesh. He is already an enemy regardless of whether I have offended him or not. It would be better to kill him for his arrogance."
"But this may be an opportunity."< br>
"Opportunity? What opportunity." Amnak crossed his arms, took two steps, and then whispered:
"An opportunity to find Fabius."
< br>
"Him?"
Soshiyang frowned.
“I have already planned to start with the Eldar regarding the Ash Marrow matter, and Fabius is dispensable.”
“This is not necessarily true, no matter what. Fulgeri Mu will not swallow this humiliation. Even without Shalish's instructions, he will definitely make trouble for you. However, it is not easy for him to leave the subspace. The most likely possibility is to remotely control the people of the Third Legion to attack you. , there are not many people in the Third Legion who can speak now, it is just Eidolon and his gang. However, during the 10,000 years of division and degeneration, the strength of the Third Legion has been sharply reduced, and it is difficult to launch another large-scale attack. Collective action, if Eidolon and the others really plan to attack you, they will definitely find Fabius to increase their troops and provide them with the key medicines they need. No one can replace him in this regard, and with Fabius’s character, He can't help but get involved in the actual action and want to know the secrets hidden in you."
"Let them do it."
Soshyan waved his hand.
“I would like to see what these legion veterans are capable of ten thousand years from now.”
“I think they might not attack the Astral Knights, the gray marrow matter Fogg Reim will not know it. Even if he didn't know it before, he knows it after fighting you this time. He is arrogant but not stupid. He will definitely not let his descendants come here to get into trouble. Therefore, their target must be the Eternal King's Court. . ”
Hearing the Eternal King’s Court, Soshiyang’s relaxed expression finally disappeared, because this was indeed a pain point.
Now the Royal Court is still very weak, not even as good as a large Ark World. It is difficult to resist the attack of a fallen legion - even if its size may be less than one-tenth of its size in the past, because of the sensitivity of the Royal Court , and he couldn't mobilize the power of humans to protect it.
Moreover, the power of Slaanesh does have some restraint on Ada. Although Soshyan is not afraid and can protect Veronica, he cannot protect all the other Aida in the royal court. The royal court will definitely Rivers of blood will flow, and even their souls will be devoured by Slaanesh.
Will this happen?
Definitely!
Fulgrim will definitely execute such an insidious and vicious plan, and Amnak’s analysis is basically correct.
And he seems to have no solution at the moment.
"Amnak, what do you think we should do?"
The only person Soshyan can turn to is the former Chief of Slaanesh. No one around him knows Fulgrim better than him. .
“Don’t worry, it is not easy to assemble the legions. The Third Legion is different from the Fourteenth Legion. The Fourteenth Legion has always maintained the most basic unity. The Third Legion was already in the late stages of the Great Rebellion. It was already in pieces. After Eidolon led the Noise Warriors to destroy the Phoenix Guards, the unity of the entire legion could be said to be completely destroyed. All the people of the Third Legion fell into wantonness, depravity, and indulgence. Their inner feelings Selfishness is infinitely magnified, and orders and instructions are regarded as a kind of slavery and shame. It is almost impossible to unite such a group of people. Eidolon can only rely on the chicken feathers given by the original body as arrows to summon people scattered across the galaxy. It’s hard to say how many warbands can be gathered, but time alone may not be able to solve it in a short time, so at least you don’t need to worry about anything for now. According to my estimate, at least within ten years in reality, you won’t We need to worry about a large-scale attack by the Third Legion, so the best solution is to enhance the power of the Eternal Royal Court during this period, and even make it truly become the highest royal court of the Eldar Tribe, uniting the entire Eldar The power of race, not to mention the third legion at that time, adding another fourteenth legion may not be a threat. "
What Amnak said is correct, and the idea is not wrong, but when it comes to Sosh. Yang's personal identity and position are a little embarrassing.
But he really has no choice, because to save Ida, the mother goddess Isha, he can only use the power of Ada, which also requires him to increase the strength of the Eternal Royal Court.
For some reason, Soshyan always felt like he had fallen into a routine designed by a certain being.
But he really had no choice.
