At the same time that all sentry weapons were disarmed, the two entered the middle area. This space was divided into two concentric areas: an outer ring composed of an array of meditators, and a sealed outer observation chamber composed of image recorders and scanners. An interior core of thick bulletproof glass screens provides a secure viewing position for the entire laboratory, with sentinel weapons monitoring the entire room.
Li then said to the mechanical sage in a very respectful tone:
“Sage Belisarius Caul, I hope my uninvited arrival did not disturb you. "
"Of course not."
While standing in front of the two people, the sage named Caul showed that he was several times taller than ordinary people.
At this time, Dalia suddenly said:
"Such an important plan is hidden in a place where the entire Mars is hostile. Is it really safe enough?"
After Li explained Before that, Kaul was the first to speak.
"Ma'am, I can confidently say that while there are certain inherent risks here, there is no safer facility in the entire galaxy."
Dahlia Then he turned to Li.
"You will come to check every once in a while."
"I can't say check, the main thing is to determine what Sage Caul needs."
"Is this the alternative? "
At this time Kaul interrupted the two of them.
"Lee, I welcome you to observe all proceedings as your rank and responsibility allow, but I must concentrate all my energy on doing my job now, so, if you will forgive me..."
"Sage Caul, I want to see the Armor of Destiny."
Hearing Li's words, Caul's visual equipment flashed, then turned around and pressed the console beside him.
Soon the observation room shuddered, then a floor of the inner chamber parted and a rising platform rose from the enclosure below, supported by four crackling colonnades in which placed Equipped with a stasis field generator.
In the rippling blue energy, a huge, gorgeous armor with blue as the main body and gold as the embellishment appeared.
Li took a step forward and stared at the armor, seemingly lost in some thought.
After Dalia looked at it for a while, she whispered:
"Is it time to use it now?"
Li shook his head.
"This alone is not enough."
As he said that, he looked at Kaul.
"This Sage Caul has the most say."
"Only relying on the function of the Armor of Destiny, according to the calculations of all my processors, the probability of successfully reviving the Thirteen Primarchs is less than 10%, so We also need another force to wake him up safely and then put this armor on him. In this way, the success rate can be as high as 87%."
Dahlia lowered her eyes slightly.
"Psychic."
"It seems that now is not the time, and when the time comes, we will be the ones to move the gears."
After Li finished speaking, he asked Call to put away his armor.
"Is the new legion's plan going well?"
"Everything is just waiting for the Thirteenth Primarch to wake up."
Kaul inserted the metal tentacle into the console, and then The platform they were on separated from its original position and slowly rose. At the same time, a hole opened in the ceiling of the laboratory. The platform sent the three people and the observation room they were in into a dark space.
“Turn on the lights.”
When Caul issued a command to the servo skull, all the lighting strips came to life instantly, illuminating a crowded hive-like space.
It is in the shape of an oval as a whole, with glass covers in every direction, filled with translucent liquid, and one can see highly developed strong bodies. Although they are all tightly closed His eyes seemed to be looking down at the three people at the same time.
Their physiques have surpassed all existing space warriors. They all have different colors of skin and different colors of hair, but they have the same terrifying muscles, and are connected by many red and blue tubes. The interfaces on their bodies and breathing masks on their faces were used to maintain their minimum physiological functions.
Looking up, there are thousands of them densely packed. After a quick glance, Li suddenly asked:
"Sage Caul, have you ever made a finished product using the genes of the Eleventh Legion?"
After a brief silence, Caul replied:
"I tried it, but it didn't work. In other words, there are some technical doubts. The gene seeds of the Eleventh Legion are not significantly different from other legions but are very mysterious. I am still unable to find out the reasons for these differences."
"You don't. You will find it."
Dahlia suddenly said lightly.
Call looked down at her.
“Give me that sample and let me extract a little genetic material from him. This doubt can be solved. The Empire will no longer need any additional plans. Primaris is enough to achieve the goal of re-rising mankind. "
" Then you will not live long. "
Kaur didn't say anything, but Li, who had been silent, suddenly asked.
“Where is the Second Legion?”
"Neither -"
"Sage Caul, I am asking you now on behalf of the throne, where is the Second Legion?"
Li's tone was very calm, but with an incredulous tone. The majesty of doubt was extremely inconsistent with his decaying appearance.
“There is a very small amount of finished product.”
“Wake them up immediately.”
"You want to take them away?"
"No, not me, but you don't need to ask so much."
"Li, I have to remind you that what I accept is Robert Guilliman's order."
"He never ordered you to use the seeds of these two legions, right?"
After a few seconds of silence, Caul's cold voice responded:
"I need a standard Martian day."
"Then I will come back to you then."
With that said, Li and Dahlia left the laboratory.
After that, the two of them went non-stop to Mount Arcia, which is close to the equator. This is a huge volcano surrounded by a rare "garden residential area" on Mars. Thanks to the guidance of biological sages, With hard work and a huge bubble shield, there is an extraordinary natural ecology and dotted with luxurious residences. Therefore, the land price here is no different from the most expensive areas of Terra. Only the most distinguished Mechanicus executives are eligible to enter here.
Li's aircraft passed through the layers of security without any hindrance, entered this space, and then landed in a mansion that nominally belonged to a certain genetic sage.
Leaving the shuttle and entering a long corridor composed of crystal and bronze, the two came to a hall.
The polarizing wall filters out severe atmospheric pollution and provides an unparalleled clear view of the entire mansion. A lonely figure stands on the viewing platform, staring at the vast wasteland in the distance.
When the footsteps of the two people sounded on the metal floor, the man turned around. Lennart Meyers, who seemed to be dozens of years older and already wrinkled, saw Li, Smile.
“Thank you for your hard work, Li.”
Li didn’t say anything polite, just dropped it.
"They will wake up in a day."
Lennart looked at Dalia, and then nodded slightly.
"Dragon Guard, thank you for your efforts over the past ten thousand years."
"I am just fulfilling my mission."
