Warhammer in a box

Chapter 380 Isolation Rune
"Come on, since you are here, come in and take a look. I haven't been sleeping all these years. I have also been doing some research and experiments."

Valaya invited everyone to enter her sleeping place. Sleeping was not only for hiding but also for recovering from the injuries sustained in the battle with Chaos. Every once in a while, Valaya would recover from some of her injuries and then have a period of wakefulness.

When Zhang Heng and his group, including the dwarves, entered the interior, they truly realized that opening the Valaya Gate would lead to a return to the Golden Age was not completely groundless. Some of the things inside surprised Zhang Heng.

The interior of the Valaya Gate is also eerily clean. The cleanliness here does not mean clean in the literal sense, but that there is not even a trace of chaotic magic inside. You must know that the wind of magic is everywhere in this world, which also means that the chaotic wind of magic is more or less everywhere in this world, it is just a matter of quantity.

"Valaya, how did you do it?" Zhang Heng asked curiously.

Walaya took down a stone sculpture from the stone wall and displayed it in front of Zhang Heng.

Looking at the intricate dwarven runes on the stone carvings, Zhang Heng now understood that the root of everything was caused by these dwarven runes.

"This is a type of dwarven rune that I have researched using my authority as a dwarven god. I gained some inspiration from the dwarves and created these runes. These runes can be said to come from the dwarves themselves. They can isolate the corruption of chaos. When there are enough of them, they can form a large-scale and continuous purification area."

Valaya explained the functions of these runes.

After listening to Walaya's explanation, Zhang Heng was stunned.

"Shocked, isn't this thing very similar to the Space Commander's Exorcist Dead Zone?"

However, the Necrons' exorcist dead zone also comes from the special mineral Blackstone. If you know how to use Blackstone, you will have a certain ability to control the subspace. But this thing is bidirectional. It can isolate the subspace, but in a special way it can also become a subspace amplifier. It can be said that Blackstone is a double-edged sword.

Zhang Heng thought of the divine seal that his believers possessed. The effect of the divine seal was somewhat similar to the isolation rune of Walaya. As his believers increased in number, the divine seal had already spread throughout the empire, and it was difficult to find a human settlement without a divine seal.

And those demon hunters and adventurers each have one. The church generously sells the divine sigils to those who come to buy them, and only charges a labor fee. After all, these divine sigils need to be carved or painted by devout believers themselves.

One more person possessing the divine symbol can reduce the chance of chaos infiltrating.

However, the divine symbol is more of a warning. It is passive. It will only give a warning when a person with the mark of chaos appears nearby. Of course, it can also cause certain damage to chaotic creatures, but it can ultimately not be used as a weapon.

But Valaya's invention is indeed active and continuous.

Chaos demons must have enough magical support in the mortal world, but if Valaya's magic rune can be popularized, then once the demons step in, they will directly lose the energy supply for existence, which is much more powerful than the divine rune.

"Valaya, your invention is truly amazing. How did you do it? Is it possible that this rune could be manipulated by Chaos and amplify the influence of the Chaos Realm in the mortal world?"

"Why do you ask? There is no connection between the two. This technology comes from the dwarves themselves. I think you know that we dwarves have natural magic resistance, and this resistance is not physical, but it comes from the moment we are created! Rather than saying it is magic resistance, it does not mean that all dwarves are a little magic insulator.

We ourselves are small isolation runes. I just magnified them in the form of dwarven runes. Just like those dwarven traitors who followed Chaos, although they gained a certain ability to use magic, the price was unbearable. The more they used magic, the more their bodies would turn into stone. "

Zhang Heng understood after Valaya's explanation. It was true that they had learned magic like the Chaos Dwarves, but they did not have the ability to magnify the Chaos Realm.

"Can you mass-produce this thing?!" Zhang Heng asked the question that concerned him most.

"It is not difficult to make it, but this is related to my authority. After all, the maker possesses divine power. But now I am the only one who has escaped from the dwarf god. However, at least the runes I have forged over the years are enough to cover several important towns of the dwarves. To thank you, I am willing to provide a part of them to you humans. You can choose several important cities." Valaya was quite generous. After all, there were still many dwarf fortresses. It was quite good of her to give out some of such important strategic materials.

And there are not only magic runes inside, but also a large part of things buried deeper.

As Valaya led everyone deeper, a secret room was opened, and the contents inside shocked all the dwarves.

"Holy relics?! So many holy relics? And they are intact?!" Thorgren opened his mouth wide.

"These were all forged by Granni before he left. Some of them were made by him, and some of them were made by him cracking and borrowing some ancient technology." Valaya showed everyone everything in front of him.

But this made Zhang Heng uneasy.

"Steam, rivets, brass-colored full-body armor, and perfectly sized to fit a dwarf's body. Wait, why does this thing look so much like a steampunk version of power armor? Can Granni already make something like this?"

"Power Armor? If you describe it that way, it is indeed somewhat similar. This is something forged by Granni who injected his own divine power into the metal ingots. It can greatly increase the strength and defense of the dwarves, and can be equipped with various heavy weapons. However, when he left, he was unable to solve the problem of energy supply. The most practical energy in this world is magic... But we may be like the Chaos Dwarves..."

Valaya also sighed.

"Valaya, inject divine power into the metal ingot? Do you know how to do this?! And Granni can't solve the power problem, but I can help you solve it. Let's work together!"

Zhang Heng has always wanted to manufacture power armor in the medieval world, but even in 1k, power armor is not so common. The production of each set of power armor is extremely time-consuming and resource-intensive, and even some poor regiments need to piece together their power armor.

It's difficult for Lecard to hand-make the force feedback armor used by mortals, let alone mass-produce it.

Zhang Heng wanted to use the power of faith to materialize directly, but the transformation surgery of the Space Marine could not be done by materialization. Even if he got a few pieces, there would be nothing he could wear.

The power of faith is not omnipotent. It does not mean that Zhang Heng can print some power armor that does not require a black shell.

And now, what Valaya said about Granni's operation of injecting divine power into metal ingots and the prototypes of these dwarven power armor he made might allow Zhang Heng to successfully apply power armor on a large scale in the empire.

But the surprises that Walaya gave were more than just that.

This huge secret room also has 10 steam battleships that are like airships, as well as ten rune colossi that have gone through countless years and still look brand new.

These gigantic war machines are constructed from vast quantities of dwarven runes.

The appearance is that of a giant dwarf wearing silver-white armor, with a huge rune blade in one hand and a rune hammer in the other, and those heavy war artillery are placed on these huge units.

And those dwarven runes make them immune to most magics. The god's metal is extremely strong. They will be the nightmare of magicians and any infantry.
