Chapter 115: The Grave
The target of the Cologne Star Mechanic Order's discovery is located in a dead world.
There is no life on the planet, the atmosphere is full of poison, and the surface is barren, but the temperature is moderate, and it should have been a place to live.
But since the Death-Dreadors were transformed into space necrons, air, water, organic matter, and other things that were originally necessary for living beings have suddenly become dispensable.
Therefore, Wei Mu needs to wear a set of life support equipment to go down to the ground.
The oil guys are conducting various surveys on the surface of the planet, trying to determine the location of the core area of the Necromantic Dynasty.
Because the world of tombs is so large, and the most valuable funerary goods are often located next to the tomb owner, they don't have the time to waste their energy elsewhere.
Locking the core is not an easy thing to do.
However, the oilers were very experienced, and with some hard work, they managed to delineate the approximate area - there were three places that could be the main tomb.
As for the further results, we will have to wait until we officially enter the Tomb World.
On the other hand, Wei Mu is also making suggestions for the survey work.
However, he did not use advanced exploration equipment, but Feng Shui, dragon and treasure hunting.
Mountains are worshipped in any civilization.
The uneven surface of those planets is the most primitive and huge thing that stands in front of intelligent beings.
They were amazed by its sheer size and praised its power.
"Looking for the dragon must look at the winding mountain, a heavy entanglement is a heavy pass, if there are a thousand locks in the door, there must be a prince living here."
Wei Mu studied the three points that the oilmen had demarcated, and finally settled on what he thought was a magnificent temple in the middle of a rolling mountain range.
The oil guys will definitely not believe in Wei Mu's set of things, they have their own set of methods, so they still decided to go three ways together.
"So we'll go down from here?"
Walking on the harsh surface of the world of the dead, Moore asked.
"Of course, trust my skills." Wei Mu nodded proudly, and then asked left and right, "Where's my Kunkun?" β
The attendant replied, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of reminding me, my lord, your chicken...... Kun Kun may not be able to leave the cage, and the harsh environment outside will kill him instantly. β
For the sake of the safety of the herd, Tiberus arranged for fifty space marines, hundreds of attendants, and a group of oil guys to be by his side, anyway, there is no shortage of manpower now.
"It's okay, I don't need it to run around, I just need it to bark."
Wei Mu also specially equipped the chicken with a set of mid-part head and suspenders, plus a basketball, hoping that it would be extraordinary.
Then, after explaining the key points of touching the gold and pouring the bucket to the attendants, the group began to work on the tomb.
The Death-Dreads are a very bitter race, so all aspects of death pervade their culture.
The colossal tomb is the best proof of this.
The oil guys cut open the door to the world of the catacombs with a molecular cutter, and an ancient civilization that had been sealed in the dust for 65 million years appeared in front of them.
The high halls are made of incredible materials, and the wide corridors are like a road leading to an endless end.
When people step into it, the braziers on both sides immediately ignite with a green glow.
"What's going on out there?" Seeing this, Wei Mu immediately asked on the walkie-talkie.
"Your Kunkun is quiet, and the oil lamp is still burning normally." The squire who remained on the surface replied.
"That's good, keep watching, and notify us immediately if the situation is wrong." Wei Mu said, and then waved to the people around him, "Let's move on." β
As the world of the tomb is lit up by a burning flame, one gets a closer glimpse of it in its entirety.
On both sides of the cloister stand a huge guard, as majestic and powerful as the Titans of the Empire.
Even if you stand still, you can feel the destructive power within.
It was a civilization that belonged to the Death-Fearers, the former overlords of the galaxy, and although their bodies were weak, the will they had trained was extremely tenacious.
Only the immortals and gods can stop them.
"If these things attack us, we'll be crushed to pieces in an instant." Moore reminded.
After all, for the space necromancers, the tomb is the world they live in, and the behavior of people robbing the tomb is no different from directly stabbing someone else's home.
"So I lit an oil lamp outside, and if the owner of the tomb allowed us to visit, it would keep the oil lamp on, otherwise it would blow it out, and it would be called a ghost blowing lamp." Wei Mu explained.
"But you know, there is no such thing as a ghost in space necromancers, they are."
"Don't speak ill of the owner of the tomb in the tomb, Moore." Wei Mu reminded, "In addition, these scarabs on the ground that are no longer working also indicate that this tomb world has fallen asleep, and there may be some working ribs left, but as long as we don't touch them, it should be safe." β
As a result of Abaddon's Thirteenth Black Expedition, the Great Runaway Rift ran through most of the galaxy, splitting the Human Empire in half.
The area where Terra is located is called the Imperial Sacred Frontier, and the situation is relatively good, mainly because the navigator can still see the stable star torch.
On the other hand, it is plagued by a large group of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and it is difficult for each world to take care of each other, which is called the dark side of the empire.
If you want to reclaim the dark side of the empire, you must stop the further spread of the Great Rift, and the space necrons have Blackstone technology in their hands that specializes in subspace, and they deserve high hopes from everyone.
This is also the main purpose of Wei Mu's trip.
Not only that, but with enough blackstone creations, he would be much more secure when making various attempts at subspace, and he wouldn't have to worry about those demons and monsters coming to interfere.
The oilers are eager to find out the secrets of the necromantic shell and explore the path of mechanical ascension bestowed by the star gods.
The crowd continued to march through the cloister of the tomb, which was eerily quiet, and the slightest sound could cause a loud reverberation.
After all, this is a place for the dead.
Walking through the entrance of the world, you can see rows of coffins on both sides of the people.
Each coffin contains a person who is now a resident of the Tomb World, numbering in the millions.
The oilmen were so excited that they were short of breath and the electronic sounds were so loud that they wanted to take them home and dissect them at onceβthe mechanical creations that had survived 65 million years were still intact, and it was worth any cost to figure out the secrets.
But putting aside the appearance and talking about the inside, the so-called immortality of these space necromancers is actually no different from a stone.
If there is one thing that Vimu has learned from the fear of death, it is that one should never look to a group of deathless beings for answers about life.
He restrained the impulses of the oilboys, and the leader continued to go deeper until they reached the door of death.
It's been a bit much lately, so I can only say that I try to keep it updated
