After Skarbrand's defeat, Khorne left here angrily and returned to the depths of the High Sky to continue sitting on his brass throne. Russell also escaped from the thankless battle between gods and returned to the real universe.

Returning to the cabin of the Gray Gu mothership, Gray Wind reported the current situation to him: "The fruit of the Infinite Root has been obtained. It is now stored in my stomach. Do you want to see it? The Suzheng host has also been successfully recovered. However, there are still a large number of Su Zheng codes circulating outside. We are preparing to use neutron killing to clean out all machines infected with Su Zheng codes, and the Soul Exorcist Dead Zone is also being prepared..."

The Colossus equipped with neutron killing is controlled by a sub-process of Gray Wind. There is no human crew on it. It is an unmanned Colossus.

After completely annihilating all Iron Warriors warships infected with the Rectification Protocol, a large number of fleets of the Federation Navy began to evacuate outside the galaxy. This was because within 5 light years of Oregon, a number of Titan warships carrying giant black stone obelisks were already in place. They were about to use the Exorcist Dead Zone to completely blockade this area. Humanity would never let the Rectification Protocol have any chance to escape into the subspace.

Chapter 420 Don’t underestimate Tzeentch’s intelligence network

The Grey Goo mothership also took Russell away from Oregon, which had turned into a huge tumor. Outside the galaxy, black stone obelisks were gradually put in place. This was a technological creation of the Star God Void Dragon Magradros. The bidirectional psychic magnetic poles could operate in the forward direction to shield the subspace and create a soul-driving dead zone, and could also operate in the reverse direction to amplify the power of psychics or trigger the tides of the sea of ​​souls.

Here, the Order of Truth uses the former. The black stone array emits strange fluctuations originating from the origin of matter in space. A huge 'field' is covered like a veil, covering a 5-light-year range centered on the Oregon Galaxy. Covered all.

"Huh?" Hui Feng frowned slightly, as if she noticed something was wrong.

Grey Wind turned his head curiously to look at Russell, and saw that he looked normal with a hint of a smile on his face. The Neutron Killer hanging high above the Oregon orbit had been fully charged, and when the Colossus was about to be launched, something unexpected happened.

Under the shroud of the 'Exorcist Dead Realm', the giant subspace crack in the center of the Galil Star Cluster suddenly expanded. The crack in the Sea of ​​Souls suddenly opened like a demon's bloody mouth. The huge crack opened in less than 1 second. In the clock's time, it quickly extended to the edge of the stars.

The huge mouth opened, swallowing the entire Oregon star in one gulp, and the root of infinity fell into the belly of the evil god deep in the sea of ​​souls.

"How could this happen?!" Hui Feng immediately checked herself in shock, and she quickly found the reason for this change:

"Our fleet was invaded. The scholars responsible for activating the Black Stone acted illegally. The Black Stone Obelisk did not operate in a positive direction to spread the Exorcist Dead Zone. It in turn increased the power of the subspace!"

Seeing that the orbit of a flesh and blood planet was now empty, Gray Wind was extremely anxious. You know, the Throat of the Poison Saint on the surface of Oregon was still sealed in the Iron Warrior's adamantine armored vehicle and had not been recovered! Now the two relics, the Throat of the Poison Saint and the Root of Infinity, fell into the hands of Chaos. What should he do?

Gray Wind looked at Russell anxiously, but saw that his expression remained the same, with a faint smile between his brows.

Seeing Russell's calm look, the panicked Gray Feng also calmed down. Hundreds of years of getting along almost every step of the way gave her a very good understanding of Russell's character. Gray Feng knew that every time she saw him showing this look, it meant that he was Who are you plotting again?

"My dear, aren't you worried? The Root of Infinity has been taken away by the Chaos God?" Gray Wind asked softly, "I just checked the fleet and found that the nervous systems of many scholars in charge of the activation of the Black Stone were disturbed by unknown interference.

They secretly operated illegally and modified the psychic magnetic pole of the Black Stone Obelisk. As a result, the field we expanded was not an exorcist dead zone that banned psychic powers, but a demonic paradise of subspace power that increased the power of chaotic gods and monsters. This directly led to The subspace rift in the center of the Galil star cluster rapidly expanded and swallowed the Oregon star. "

Russell nodded slightly: "I know."

"You really know." Gray Feng gently hugged Russell's waist from behind, with an expression that said, "I really can't do anything to you." She asked softly: "Did the Lord of Changes influence the scholars of the Order? This is also the case. Tzeentch’s conspiracy?”

Russell closed his eyes and felt the small body and big arc of Gray Wind, and said softly: "Yes, and no. The high-level scholars of the Order of Truth are equipped with perfect anti-subspace means. It is very difficult for the evil gods to contaminate them. Even Gustav, whose equipment was completely damaged and whose body was burned to pieces by the battle with the Burner, was not successfully corrupted by Khorne."

"Those scholars who violated the rules were not affected by the Warp. What interfered with their nervous systems was something else, a purely material means that could not be affected by the anti-Warp protection." Russell turned around and hugged Gray Wind's soft body in his arms, gently stroking her chin like petting a cat, and then said, "Do you remember what you released to fight the Tyranid swarm?"

Gray Feng was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered: "It's a fragment of the Star God, the Endless One, Ixituo."

"That's it." Russell said with a smile: "The Endless One Ishtu is the most hated and detested bad star god in the mouth of the Silent King. He is an eternal disease that exists in the brains of all creatures in the universe."

Every living thing is strongly bound to Ishuto the Endless, a star god who can influence all living things.

"You released Ishuto to fight against the Great Devourer. This is a wise choice. Ishuto is naturally strong against Tyranids. But at the same time, it is also strong against any creature, such as humans."

Russell went on to say: "The fragmented Star God should not have complete self-awareness, but a hidden existence behind the scenes controlled Ishuta in a way that we cannot understand, or guided Ishuta's power to serve His purpose... I speculate that this is a conspiracy of Tzeentch."

"In short, Ishtu interfered with the nervous system of our scholars, causing a large number of black stone obelisks to rotate in reverse, increasing the power of the subspace, causing the rift to be further torn apart, and swallowing the Root of Infinity and the Throat of the Poison Saint."

As Russell spoke, a smile still lingered between his brows. Huifeng lay softly in his arms, and it felt that the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than AK.

"The two treasures were taken away by Chaos, why are you so happy?" Gray Feng asked curiously.

"Because only in this way can the Lord of Changes' plan to resurrect Nurgle continue, and Chaos can help us find more relics scattered throughout the galaxy." Russell touched Gray Feng's face and said: "Do you remember How did I obtain the coordinates of the three relics back then?"

Gray Wind nodded, of course she remembered.

At that time, Russell obtained an artifact called the 'Orb of True Knowledge' from the confinement cabin of the Eumenides, the flagship of the Dark Angel sub-group 'Death Stalkers', which was entrusted to the Dark Angels by the Emperor. The forbidden weapon is the fragment of the staff of Tzeentch, the Lord of Change.

Tzeentch proposed that he could exchange the coordinates of six relics with Russell for the Orb of True Knowledge, and gave the coordinates of three relics in advance as advance payment: the Organic Codex, the Transcription Device, and the Extradimensional Warlock.

Russell chose to take three coordinates and run away, and also took Khorne's helmet away.

"Don't underestimate Tzeentch's intelligence network. The Lord of Change is set to have all the knowledge and information of the universe. He knows the coordinates of every relic. He always has the upper hand. If the Iron Warriors and Perturabo hadn't come to Oregon to snatch the Infinity Root, I wouldn't even know that the Poison Saint has appeared..."

Russell said faintly: "Since Tzeentch's intelligence ability is so powerful, we might as well not stop doing anything and let his powerful intelligence ability serve us."

Tzeentch wants to collect 7 artifacts to resurrect Nurgle, so let him collect them.

Tzeentch couldn't beat him anyway.

Chapter 421 Outside the World

The forge world 'Rust Scourge' is a wandering planet located in the Eye of Terror and the Eternal Scar universe, jointly controlled by the Dark Mechanicum and the Iron Warriors.

The Rust Scourge Forge World was known for its unique scientific research direction and radical dark technology during the Great Crusade. In the end, the Mechanical Magos' transgressive research on artificial intelligence triggered the Emperor's "Crimson Protocol" and the Dark Angels' The Icarus Accords were initiated, and the Rustbane Forge World was mercilessly condemned to extinction.

Dark Angel used vortex torpedoes to wipe out heretics who explored AI technology. The steel pseudo-continent covering the entire Forge World was torn to pieces by the ether turbulence of the Warp. Tens of billions of people died in wailing. The First Legion silently performed its duties as the Emperor's executioner.

But what the empire didn't know was that the research on machine souls and artificial intelligence by the mechanical sages of the Rust Calamity had long since attracted the attention of a special being in the Sea of ​​Souls.

That is the Lord of the Soul Forge, the secondary god in the field of technology and exploration: [Vashtor].

Vash'tor saved the shattered Rusted Scourge from the warp tide set off by the swirling torpedoes. Under the ruthless destruction of the Dark Angels, only about 1/4 of the forge world's volume was still intact, and the surviving machinery The members of the Cult and the Sages swore revenge against the treacherous Emperor and the Empire of Man. They became followers of Vashtor and firmly believed that the Emperor was a liar and that Vashtor was the true God of All Planes. Incarnation.

Over a long period of ten thousand years, the Dark Mechanicus rebuilt their forge world on the basis of ruins, with huge soul furnaces and blasphemous mechanical factories standing like birds in the forest.

The Iron Warriors, the Black Legion and many other Chaos forces are closely connected to the Rust Plague. This forge world protected by Vashtor has become one of the most important arms suppliers in the Eye of Terror with its advanced manufacturing industry.

When the Oregon star, which was completely reduced to a flesh-and-blood tumor, was dragged into the subspace by the tide of chaos planned by Tzeentch, the forge world Rustbane was the first to arrive on the scene with the help of its huge planet-level subspace jump engine. Vashtor's The followers have provided the Plague Apostles and Iron Warriors with vast amounts of war equipment, and now it's time to demand payment.

As for the reward they want, there is no doubt that it is the remains of giant machines left on the surface of the planet by the army of the Human Federation in the previous fierce battles.

The body of the Cybrex battle body is made of zero-element matter. This solid material whose molecular structure is locked by graviton control technology has incredible quantum inertia. Even the super mass-energy transformation of the Infinity Root cannot swallow it and turn it into a solid material. For their own flesh and blood, so as long as they act quickly enough, the sages of the Dark Mechanicum believe that they can snatch some precious remains from the mouth of the Infinite Root.

These wrecks are important material for their research into the unique technology of the Order of Truth.

The Fallen Sages drove huge engineering machinery and armed Titans to the surface of Oregon and began their excavation work in a mine of flesh and blood. They had been doing similar things for at least 200 years.

Since the Stargate Network was spread across the galaxy, both the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Dark Mechanicus have never stopped researching the technological creations of the Adeptus Mechanicus. The Adeptus Mechanicus has even been able to smuggle large quantities of them from the private sector through the Empire's trade channels. Arms and civilian facilities for research, the corrupt elements hiding in the Eye of Fear can only obtain research materials in this way.

But whether it is the former or the latter, their research has not made any substantial progress for hundreds of years. The Tianji Project has encrypted all the scientific and technological creations of the Order of Truth, which is too profound for them.

Even so, the oil guys have not given up, and their research continues today.

While the Fallen Sages dug for flesh on the Oregon planet, the defeated remnants of the Iron Warriors also fled back to the Eye of Terror, coming to their usual logistics base, the Forge World Rustbane, to rest.

Perturabo dragged his seriously injured body to his left arm that was severed by Mortarion, frowning as he counted the Iron Warriors' losses in this battle. However, the clearer the data was, the more painful it became in his heart.

Looking at his offspring who barely survived the massacre of the Protocol of Rectification but were in agony due to the radiation of the Poison Saint, Perturabo fell into a long silence.

At this time, a unique being came to the Rust Scourge and found Perturabo.

"Oh, look at our Lord of Steel. What kind of blow has made you so depressed? The Primarch who claims to have a will as strong as steel would be sad because of the sacrifice of his soldiers?"

A mocking voice came from a strange, hunched figure. His body was made up of flesh, blood and machinery. His bright, hollow eyes were like a pair of glowing searchlights. Densely packed mechanical limbs and metal tentacles extended from his back. A pair of wings that looked more like claws than wings slowly spread out, and a blasphemous weapon similar to the Mechanicus's holy relic, 'Ohm Messiah's Axe', was held in his hand.

He is the Lord of the Soul Forge, the God of All Opportunities believed in by the Rust Catastrophe Forging World, Vashtor.

Vashtor's mocking tone made Perturabo angry, but a series of sad numbers flashed before his eyes, and this anger was replaced by an indescribable throbbing, and the original body lowered slightly. Head, asked: "What are you doing here?"

"Come and get back the reward I deserve." Vashtor said: "It's clearly written in our contract, isn't it? I and my followers will provide you and the Lord of Change with improved waste code viruses and war fleet, and you need to capture at least one Titan-class warship of the Human Federation as reward for me."

As he spoke, Vashtor's stiff face seemed to shake his head with regret: "I provided you with powerful weapons and the invincible waste code virus! But you were defeated in the battle with the Human Federation. It is obvious that you are not as strong as you claimed, Primarch No. 4."

"Ha..." Perturabo laughed angrily and mocked: "The waste code virus pursued by your followers is not as invincible as you boast, Vashtor, your poor code is in the Star Bomber The released tachyon virus is as helpless as a baby..."

As he spoke, Perturabo looked at the fallen sages who were digging up the remains of the war bodies on the surface of Oregon and taunted them, "You and your followers are just a group of rats who are excluded by the mainstream forces and curled up in the dark corners to eat the scraps that others don't want."

Even though the Forge World Rusted was hovering in the outer orbit of Oregon, the Dark Mechanicus did not dare to claim the Infinite Foundation for themselves. Under the tyranny of the Lord of Change, they could only suppress their desire for the relics and dig up some machine wreckage that was not cared about by Tzeentch.

But Vashtor's psychological quality was obviously much better than that of Perturabo, and his heart-wrenching remarks did not make the Lord of the Soul Forge feel the slightest bit angry.

Vashtor smiled contemptuously and said: "You are too self-righteous, Primarch No. 4."

"Do you really understand what kind of existence the Human Federation is? Do you know where their science and technology come from? You just blindly believe in the propaganda of the Star Bullets and preconceivedly believe that they, like the Empire, are a branch of humanity that survived the Dark Ages of Technology. The technology of the Truth Order should also be a relic of the Golden Age of Humanity... But is this really the case?"

Perturabo's face changed slightly: "What do you mean?"

Vashtor held a scepter that looked like the Axe of Om Messiah and opened his arms as if embracing the starry sky.

The Lord of the Soul Forge said: "I am the god of inventors, engineers, scientists and craftsmen. I was born from the curiosity and technological innovation of creatures in the material world. My life is so long that the history of mankind is just a drop in the ocean..."

"The rise of the Necron, the arms race and interstellar war between different races in the galaxy, the dark age of science and technology of mankind... Every major technological innovation and technological revolution has given me power. I am the God of Technology, and I know everything about the galaxy. All the technology and knowledge of the race, with the exception of the Human Federation."

"The technology of the Order of Truth is so advanced that they are still making breakthroughs. But their explorations and technological breakthroughs have never brought me the slightest bit of power. Do you know what this means?"

Vashtor's bright eyes stared at Perturabo's eyes like two searchlights, and the original body's breathing slowly stopped unconsciously:

Their technology is not of this world."

Chapter 422 The Enemy of Life and Death

While the Lord of the Soul Forge was talking to the original body, a huge steel giant was excavated from the Flesh Mountain by the engineering machinery of the Dark Mechanicus, and transported to the Forge World Rust Disaster via a temporary space elevator. The Fallen Sages were already waiting There is no time to study the profound manufacturing process of the Cybrex battle body.

Vashtor glanced at Perturabo's severed arm and said, "Follow me."

Perturabo said nothing and followed Vashtor in silence.

The two of them came to the hangar where the wreckage of the war body was parked. The Fallen Sage of the Dark Mechanicus was busy prying open the cockpit of the war body and digging out the body of the mechanic inside. Seeing the incarnation of the God of All Machines coming, they immediately bowed in salute.

Vashtor picked up a small piece of debris from the wreckage of the machine placed on the giant machine tool. The silvery-white metal fragment was suspended in his palm. The Lord of the Soul Furnace said: "This substance called 'zero element' by the Order of Truth has a dense structure similar to that of a neutron star. Its molecular structure is completely locked, and its arrangement is as neat and uniform as an army, and it cannot be shaken."

"A deep understanding of classical mechanics has created this neutron star material that is stronger than adamantine. Except that its resistance to psychic energy and subspace is slightly inferior to adamantine, zero-element material is almost a perfect material. While its performance is superior, its synthesis cost is also incredibly low, so much so that the Order of Truth is able to install a large number of zero-element armor on both space fleets and ground armored forces."

"If humans in the Golden Age had such cheap and high-performance materials, why do those hive spiers that survived from distant times still generally use fine gold to cast their foundations and plastic steel to cast their walls? Ancient relics collected by the Mechanicus Most of them are sealed with fine gold.”

Vashtor gently clenched his fist, held the silver-white metal fragment in his palm, and said: "The synthesis of zero-element materials is not a technology that intelligent creatures in this world have ever mastered. It comes from unknown areas outside the world."

The Zero Material is, the L-Stargate is, and the Solemnity Agreement that destroyed the Waste Code Virus like a ruthless creature.

And these are just the tip of the iceberg of technology brought by Star Bomber.

"Existences from outside the world have interfered with the historical process of this galaxy, and we must make changes."

Vashtor went on to say, "The Star-Ballist's ambition and threat are so great that his arrival alone awakened an eternal being that has been dormant since the birth of the universe..."

"The First Mover hates and fears the Star-Ballist. He is the enemy of the universe's survival. The conflicts between different races and camps are a thing of the past. Those ridiculous conflicts of interest are so insignificant compared to the survival of the universe."

"The enemy of survival is right in front of us. We must unite and deal with the outside world as one."

Vashtor said as he put the metal fragment in his hand back into the machine tool. He looked at Perturabo and asked:

"Primarch No. 4, when will you abandon those old grievances and personal honors and disgrace, aim your guns at the enemy that truly threatens our survival, and fight for a more noble meaning?"

"Today," Perturabo whispered.
