153 Circle of Destruction
After getting Listia's promise or flatbread, Igrenu finally got some peace.
Leaning on the head of the bed, the Axe of the Messiah was preciously silent, and the expedition fleet that broke away from warp speed dragged the pale blue streamer through the outer ring of the galaxy defense, and after the identity verification of the patrol team, it returned directly to a vibrant blue-green planet - Falla.
Now that the rich and fertile Falla is no longer the barren appearance of a hundred years ago, the Order of Truth in the Southern Continent, which controls one of the two main continents of this planet, has also come to the fore and has become a semi-public organization tacitly understood by all forces.
As the L-Gate network gradually covered the entire Espernes sector, the bustling terminal exit system was often filled with merchant ships laden with goods, leaving the technical priests responsible for maintaining the Guiding Icon and the system guards patrolling the system all year round to make it difficult to cope.
If it had been me, I would have protested against the high intensity of my work...... and then been declared disloyal by the court. Listia thought.
Approaching their destinations, war-scarred frigates and research ships shut down their engines and anchored themselves in geosynchronous orbits.
Transport planes flew out of the belly of the Sailfish research ship and transported the large number of necromantic creations that the expedition had obtained from the Flare System back to the Order headquarters in the Southern Continent, as well as the two moons orbiting Falla, the First Moon and the Second Moon.
Both of these moons have been completely depleted over the years, and the Order of Truth has invested a lot of resources in the two hollowed-out celestial bodies, transforming them into two sturdy space defense fortresses and research bases, which can also be used as starports.
From a distance, they look like two space cities floating in the sky.
And in the middle of the orbits of the two space cities, a ring-shaped giant machine that is larger than the space city itself is quietly turning.
"What's that?" The bio-sage Igrenu was a little puzzled. She knew very well that before she set off with the Foundry Fleet for the archaeology of the Flare Galaxy, there was no such strangely shaped ship parked in Falla's orbit.
There is no imperial symbol on the ship, and it is not the work of any of the world's foundries.
It was indeed a very peculiar warship, larger than the Confession Fire, the largest battleship in existence in the Far Eastern Frontier, and carrying a huge cannon that would have been exaggerated and exaggerated to the point of no sense even to her, a sage of the Mechanic Order—what kind of target could such an oversized cannon be used for? Does it really have practical significance?
In addition to the size of the ship itself, which far surpassed that of the Glory Queen-class battleships, the exaggerated giant ship was also connected to a huge mechanical ring structure centered on itself. Igrinu speculated that it may have been a balancer that provided energy cushioning and balance to the hull when the main gun was fired.
Including this hollow mechanical ring, its diameter is already larger than that of Space City 2 in Falla's orbit.
"It's a colossus built with reverse entropy, and we call it the 'Circle of Destruction.'" Listia explained.
Igerenu nodded slightly, she wanted to ask for other information about the Broken Ring, but saw that she was sorting out her clothes and preparing to disembark.
"Inverse entropy...... Miss Listia, let me be, what are you going to do? Igrenu asked.
"You'd better go to Muspel as soon as possible and apply for a flagship of a warband, Lord Sage, I still have my own business to do." As she spoke, Listia took off her white coat stained with blood and dust and changed into a rather formal slim-fitting gown, her long hair that was scattered over her shoulders was tied into a high ponytail.
Just the change in her outfit changed her whole temperament from an informal scientist to a capable diplomat.
Lystia pulled out the authorization document with the tetrahedral pattern printed on it from the compartment of her underwear and walked to the exit of the rest pod.
"This is the task given to me by the leader, and it is also my own will."
"In the course of the Flare Galaxy's investigation of the pyramid site, we were attacked by the Death Stalkers for no apparent reason - the head of the scientific research was killed, Alphonse was missing, and there were countless casualties and precious machinery damage. Whether it is out of personal emotion or the position and dignity of the Order of Truth as a whole, we will not swallow it. ”
Egrenu picked up the Axe of the Messiah of Orm, which was leaning against the head of the bed, and followed quickly.
"All of the forces sent to the Flare by the Death Seekers have been killed, but Chaos will not appease our wrath." Listiara opened the door, her voice still calm and soothing: "According to the information given by the Gray Gu Mothership, the warband leader of the Death Chaser 'Olwin' did not participate in this raid, and during this time, he led the remaining 500 or so space marines of the warband to defend against the Orc attacks in the northern region of Esperneth. ”
It was impossible for the other Warband cadres to directly mobilize the flagship to attack the Truth Order's expedition fleet without the Warband Leader, but Russell himself could not take the time to take responsibility for this matter now. As a result, she was personally authorized by the Bulletist to mobilize the Colossus and the Reverse Entropy.
"The Order of Truth is an academic organization that convinces people with reason, and the Brothers of Truth are also reasonable people, so as the temporary director of the order, I naturally need to be more reasonable." Lystia said as she walked through the corridor, stepping her feet onto the teleportation beacon that had been adjusted by the intelligent controller's servant to the docking protocol.
The target location of the beacon is between Space City 1 and 2, in the central control room of the Colossus.
Armed with the authorization given by Russell, Lystia boarded the "Circle of Destruction". Armed with the will of the Marble and the might of the Colossus, she is going to the main planet of Nifol to reason with the Imperial bureaucrats.
Watching her figure gradually drown in the light of teleportation, Egrenu silently clenched the Om Messianic Axe in his hand.
She could understand what Listia was saying, but she could empathize with it, in the Solar Flare Galaxy, the Mechanics were also attacked by death hunters, and because they threw too much power into the ground battlefield, their situation was even worse than that of the Order of Truth:
The ships they brought with them were either destroyed or taken by the gangs, and their entourage was killed or wounded, leaving only a few high-ranking priests, including her, a biological sage, to escape on the ship of the Order of Truth.
The Mechanics were far more likely than Russell to condemn the Death Stalkers and accuse them of heresy, but for a long time after embarking the ship, Igerenu, overwhelmed by the intense joy and happiness, forgot about it, as did the other Technocrats.
Taking a deep breath, Igrenu said to the servo skull floating beside him, "Gather all the surviving Myllific believers in the ship, no matter how reluctant they are, we should all get off the ship." ”
"Inform the Fallas System Defense Force to prepare a high-speed battleship and L-Stargate priority passage for me. I need to go to Nirvana to bring the betrayal of the flare to light on Muspel, and the wrath of the God of All Machines will make the unfaithful pay for their betrayal. ”
After sending the order, Igrenu was not only angry, but also a little curious.
Due to the interference of the Lord of Change, Tzeentch, none of the messages they sent out during the attack were successfully sent back to Falla.
Now that she personally brings back the truth of the betrayal, what kind of uproar will it cause in Nirvana?
