2-83 Open the door
Although the view is still the same, Steven knows that this is the gate. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
An invisible barrier separates the front from the back, and the false scenery confuses people's eyes.
But it can't fool the instrument.
"Yes, this is the gate." Steven looked back at a few people around him, Hamilton nonchalantly checking his gear, and Kevin fiddling with a stack of things that didn't look good. Four other Marines stood guard around him.
On the Elven side, apart from the two Prophets and IELTS's ghost guards, there was only one Ranger, plus the idle-looking War Witch Lizzy and the sudden appearance of Carrick.
In the end, there were ten people from the Empire, including their inquisitors and priests, company commanders, and space marines...... and the messenger.
Just now, after a heated argument that almost turned into a fight, a conclusion was reached.
We must move forward separately, one wave of people will need to stay behind to stop the Tyranns and the Enslavers, while another wave will go and open the gates and go to the treasury.
In fact, this division of labor can be seen at a glance, the first group will have to face an endless army, and the latter group will have to go to the ancient holy ruins that are in crisis.
But in any case, the probability of survival of the latter is always a little higher.
"Vibori...... Is it, private? The inquisitor suddenly said, "Please come forward." ”
An Imperial soldier with a somewhat wincing expression slowly walked up to the judge, "What's the matter, my lord?" ”
"It's not that I have anything, it's what you have to do next, stretch out your hand."
Vipoli complied.
"And then, sir."
"The gate is really reading your signal...... Once it is confirmed, he will turn it on. Hamilton duly interjected, "Now it seems that it has been confirmed." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful suction force came, and an abnormal distortion suddenly appeared from the plain.
Matter and space-time twisted around it, like an unknown singularity suddenly appearing in the wilderness.
"Damn, it's a wormhole, but it's not normal! I didn't know the Ancient Saints could do such a thing! Steven shouted that he had seen large artificial wormholes in Lantery, the only wormhole site the Federation had built in the galaxy to connect with the fourteen artificial wormholes on the mainland.
But the Lantry wormhole station is a giant project created by hollowing out an entire planet, not a twisted point that suddenly appears between the physical realm and the subspace mezzanine.
And it won't have such a strong suction like this.
"This thing looks shaky! It's so small, and I don't see any stabilizing devices. ”
"I can't fix it anymore!" Kevin shouted from the side, the shield on the outer layer of his armor flashing with dazzling sparks, as if being pulled vigorously, "What next!" ”
"Loosen the resistance, let's go in!" Hamilton straightened up, then stared intently at the wormhole, "This is the last step, the door has been opened!" ”
He jumped up, and the huge suction force sucked it into the wormhole in an instant, and in Steven's eyes, Hamilton disappeared as if it had been shattered by the wormhole.
"Damn it!" Steven said that he saw that the Elvens also jumped into the wormhole one by one after Hamilton, and then the people of the Empire who hesitated at first.
"Shall we go in? Ambassador. Kevin asked.
"The next time you encounter something like this, remember to hold the madman of the Special Strategy Bureau first...... If you know who they are! Steven shouted, and took a step towards the wormhole.
"I'm so old that I have to jump like a madman into an unstable wormhole, and I don't have any protection...... Oh my God, I'd rather not have this experience in my life! ”
These are the final words.
The wasteland calmed down, as before.
――――――――
Vazak didn't know how to describe what was in front of him.
With a feeling? Confused? Refreshing? Accurate?
Well, that's too hard to answer, but Vazak can confirm that the view in front of him is indeed a scene he has never seen before.
Crystal prisms floated in the air, blue light connected these strange objects, flashing blue glow, the sky was a deep starry sky, and a red sun hung in the closest place to the earth.
Terraced buildings are suspended in the middle of prisms, constantly rearranged and combined into new shapes, while the ground is littered with dilapidated earth and stone houses that would seem crude enough even to Vazak.
And in the center of this space, there was a spiral-shaped white tower, stretching all the way to the sky, and in Vazak's eyes, the tip of the giant tower could always touch the abnormal red sun.
"It's on top." Vazak muttered, "This place feels bad to me, Xiaomi, where are you talking about?" ”
"That!" Millet stretched out his Mao cane, pointed to a stepped building in the sky, and said, "That's it." ”
Vazak looked at it and estimated the distance, "Okay, let's hurry over and get out of here when we regain our strength, it makes me feel strange here." ”
"Dad," Millet said suddenly.
"What's wrong?"
"Actually, Mao didn't tell me how to get out of here."
"What!"
――――Original setting time――――
【Ancient Blood】
The Last Caretaker, the Eternal Guard
When the Old Saints realized that they could no longer win the Battle for Heaven, a group of prescient Old Saints decided to leave their race with a final legacy.
They carved out a strange mezzanine in a remote corner of the galaxy, and placed the last essence of the ancient sage civilization in it.
But the question then arises, who will take care of this last legacy? The use of machinery is to give space necrons a chance, and the current minion race cannot be trusted by the enslaved.
In the end, this group of ancient saints created a strange race that was so primitive and barbaric that it almost exceeded the ancient saints' estimation before the end came.
Modeled after the scaly creeps of a primordial planet, the Old Saints one-sidedly spawned their evolution, allowing them to walk upright and evolve strong limbs to wield weapons, and the already ferocious beast is now a formidable guard that never stops.
The Ancients have strengthened the ability of these new races named the Ancient Blood to resist the erosion of the subspace, and they are almost completely insulated from the subspace or related abilities.
This change prevents the race from exploiting the treasure they guard, and is intended to limit their ability to leave their guards.
Of course, the side effect is that the IQ of the ancient blood is almost no different from that of the beasts, except for absolute loyalty to the mission, these cold-blooded animals are the most savage and terrifying killers created by the ancient sanctuaries.
【Eternal Guard】
The Guards of the End
As cold-blooded creatures, the hibernation period of the Ancient Blood exceeded the normal limit under the transformation of the Ancient Sage. The normal lifespan of ancient blood can reach more than a thousand years, once it is not controlled, it will soon collapse the ecosystem of the treasure house, in order to prevent this, the ancient saint made the time ratio of the activity cycle of the vast majority of ancient blood to the hibernation cycle reach one to one hundred when designing, so as to effectively control the amount of ancient blood.
But there are also some Ancient Bloods, those who have been the most powerful and comparatively intelligent since their birth, who will be chosen to be given a higher mission.
They are genetically modified and trained for centuries in virtual time in a stationary chamber.
Eventually, they will be endowed with ancient armor and weapons made by the Old Sages, and will become the legends of the Ancient Blood, the Eternal Guardians.
The selection of the new Eternal Guardian requires the unanimity of all active Eternal Guardians and the approval of the Ancient Blood Council, each of which is the most valuable possession, both as individuals and with the armor they wear and the weapons they use.
The Eternal Guardian is as far apart from the rest of the Bloodlines as the mortals of the Empire are to the Grey Knights. In addition to the strange power of the main battle tank with a single punch, the speed of the Eternal Guardian is enough to dazzle the howling banshees of the Spirit Clan, and the extraordinary martial arts they have condensed over countless centuries, combined with their formidable nature and the ancient armor and extraordinary weapons made by the Ancient Saints, make them almost the ultimate creations of mythology.
Most importantly, the Eternal Guardians are much smarter than their former kind, and their resistance to the subspace is even better, even if they just howl in a whisper to shatter psionic spells
True to their name, the Eternal Guardians never hibernate, and their genetic modification and armor allow them to remain awake and ready to guard the treasures of the Old Sage.
That said, the Eternal Guardians are the only ones who can leave the Ancient Blood's hiding place, and they will be called by some ancient mission known only to them, and they will travel to strange places to find the relics of the Ancient Saint.
These missions are not for outsiders, and the only thing that is known is that even such a powerful Eternal Guardian will die as a result.
When they die, their equipment automatically returns to the Sanctuary they swore to guard until the next Ancient Blood is chosen to be the Eternal Guardian.
