Chapter 494: Arriving in the Wide Area and Conducting Secretly
"Don't you want to keep this thing? To be honest, if I were you, I would have to get it."
Lin Heng asked casually while looking at the bright stars on the star map.
“Of course I do. If the Ulanska Dynasty is unable to protect such a precious item, I, the Overlord, will definitely be the next successor.
Sanat! Where are we now?" Trazyn yelled to his chief engineer.
The technician stepped forward, holding an engraving pen and dancing on the holographic screen, and the large and small galaxies on the star map showed their vast brilliance.
"I know my own strengths very well, so I try not to put myself in danger."
Lin Heng nodded, then pointed to the Sharnask domain and asked:
"Tell me about this place." On the map of the Milky Way, the middle right side of the dark side is the location of the fifth expansion. Trazyn looked at his chief technician, who cleared his throat and began to tell him what he knew.
"To be honest, this is... my second time leaving the tomb world, sir, you know."
"Yeah."
Taraxin turned his head and looked at Lin Heng again without saying anything, as if this was all the answer he could provide.
"I don't need the history of some planets. I just want to know the latest situation of several nearby star regions."
"Well... they are all at war. The chaos on one planet can reflect the overall situation of the entire star region. You are in me and I am in you."
Technician Sanna folded his hands and nodded, as if he had said something very correct.
Lin Heng pursed his lips and established an independent channel with Taraxin through the neural matrix in the armor. He couldn't help but ask the other party if there was something wrong with the chief technician's brain.
Trazyn said that she could forgive his brain circuit deviation problem, as Sanat's neural matrix had deteriorated over the past 60 million years.
This decline has affected his short-term memory, but his holographic projection skills are among the best in all of Dynasty.
"You obviously use this ability to improve the viewing experience of the exhibition hall."
“It can also be used for real-time calls.”
"Then you have a chance to apply."
Lin Heng said that the appearance of a Necron light cruiser in this place was too shocking, so he could just place it on the nearest planet.
Moreover, he did not want to show up quickly, as directly contacting the top leaders of the empire would not achieve the results he wanted.
Although these imperial officials are not as arrogant as the Eldar, their paranoia and stubbornness are at the forefront.
It would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to balance the various organizations in the empire if they came into contact rashly, and Lin Heng could not think of a better way now.
So, instead of listening to the other person's story, it is better for him to witness it himself. Maybe he can get some inspiration from it.
Some things need to be witnessed by him personally and he needs to know all the various circumstances involved before he can have sufficient say in subsequent communications.
Although time is precious, not all talents in the empire are necessarily his allies. Since Yuanjian had expressed his intention to go to the Sharnasquad region, perhaps he could meet him again.
This is at least an alliance that can be formed without any mixed interests.
"At least you know the name of this star region, right?"
“Of course, according to humans, this place is called the Sharnathqua Region, which includes the central Cassandra, the western Barol, the eastern Barolia, and the Celestis and Satyag star systems above.
There is a very stable wormhole hub in the Cassandra galaxy, but it is still unknown where it leads to. "Cassandra galaxy, where Lin Heng is about to go, try to find a more comprehensive map of the "wormhole..."
Lin Heng suddenly realized that the wormhole in the Cassandra galaxy might be the star tide hub mentioned by Farsight - Nemya Atoll.
The other party is estimated to have arrived there now, which means that the fellow tribesmen he wants to find are also there, and the main force of the Titanium army must be gathered here.
Even if there are any galaxies around us, they are probably just some emerging home worlds with a few defenders, or war planets that are still resisting.
"So where are you going to go? The area where the fighting is the most severe?"
Like Taraxin, you can tell at a glance that he is here to get something. He has not been here very often, so he is sure to find some items worth collecting.
"No, let's go to a more peaceful place, to the western Balor system. If we make some noise, we might attract someone worth persuading."
In the darkness, a croissant-like alien fighter flew out of the Shroud-class light cruiser that looked like a pyramid stacked on top of several disks. The Night Scythe transport ship, with a small wormhole underneath that could "spray" out a large number of soldiers, had a strange hull style that represented the Necrons' superiority in technology.
However, a single Shroud-class cruiser could not cause much waves, so the huge ship docked on a desolate asteroid on the outskirts of the galaxy.
The engine blew the lunar dust around, forming a crater of moderate size, further hiding the lifeless mass of iron.
Lin Heng walked into the portal of the pumice tower, and then, the next second, he fell to the ground from the small wormhole under the Dark Night Scythe transport plane that had flown out earlier.
There was no obstruction. Of course, the small Night Scythe could not be detected by any radar, and he did not need to fly along the traditional route.
The defenses in orbit can't see it, let alone hit it...if there are still weapons in the planet's orbit, of course.
After all, the thick smoke spreading among the endless spires in the distance does not look like a normal sight.
"Ah~ The pheromones in the air here are full of the smell of chaos." Trazyn also landed on the ground, then turned on the illusion generator to blend his metal body into the environment.
Lin Heng ignored him and took out a set of old robes from his space pocket. After putting them on, he looked exactly like an ordinary citizen of the empire.
The 'makeover' made his body shape no different from that of an ordinary person, and he even looked a little thin.
Basically, unless the psychic level is higher than his, and he is a psychic who specializes in screening, or he has some powerful scientific equipment.
Otherwise, once he sneaks into the city, digging him out would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
The dilapidated outer walls of the city bear visible traces of shelling, and the shanties built by the poor have turned into ruins.
As the sound of explosions was still echoing in the city, Lin Heng suddenly had an inspiration and found a twisted shrine under the rubble.
The statues placed there have been broken and layered, and the limestone bodies are very rough. It is difficult to see the expressions of the people carved on them due to the erosion of time.
However, I could still vaguely recognize the other person's identity through his clothes.
"Oh~ It's the Emperor's statue, right? This is the first time I've seen such a crude product."
"Well, it's probably made by these poor people themselves."
Lin Heng put the shrine back in its original place, and found that under the gray soil and rocks next to it were all the dead citizens of the empire.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the mass death of the poor doesn't look like a good sign."
Lin Heng understood that in this star region, the hatred between the Titans and humans would probably be an unstoppable wave.
"Let's go into the city and take a look."
...
Caroline stroked her newly grown arm. Two weeks after boarding the Tau ship, the damaged area finally regained activity.
Although the glow released by Lin Heng at that time cleared the pollution on his arm, it would take a long time to shape the spiritual bones.
Without the help of a bone-guiding craftsman or doctor, she could only carefully repair it herself. During the process, it even grew crooked a lot and had to undergo surgery to remove it herself.
Fortunately, what she has the most now is time.
"Dang Dang Dang."
"Please come in."
Yuanjian, dressed in a long robe, walked into the room. Compared to the first time they met, he looked like a wise man.
The wise man is always tired, and this stereotype can be completely applied to the other person.
After returning to the ship and continuing his journey through the starry sea, Yuanjian took off his combat uniform and put away the mysterious blade.
As time went by, the other person became more and more tired, but that state of fatigue was not caused by exhaustion.
It was the biological body that had reached the end of its life, and the organs of the body had entered the decaying period of old age. Compared with the Eldar, the Tau were a truly short-lived species. Even after a long period of cryogenic hibernation, the other party's life span was now completely beyond the average.
What maintained the opponent's health was the sword that she could not even identify, which was nourishing the opponent's body in some untraceable way.
"Is the arm fully recovered?" Farsight asked kindly.
Caroline opened her slightly tender hand, her bones still had one centimeter to grow to maturity.
"Soon. My strength doesn't lie here. Otherwise, I would have recovered completely in three to five days."
Farsightedness is amazing.
"The more I understand, the more I realize how weak the Titanium are. There is nothing remarkable about our development, and the weakness of our species is indeed an unavoidable shortcoming.
The antiquity, mystery, and advancement of your Eldar race are obvious to all."
“Of course, you Tau are bright and full of vitality, it just takes time.
You are very different from the Tau I know, and you seem to recognize the fundamental inferiority of all races."
"Arrogant and arrogant, looking down on everything."
Caroline nodded with relief. He really hoped that the Eldar could realize the terribleness of this shortcoming.
"This is what Lord Lin Heng taught me. Without him, it would take me a much longer time to see the essence of this."
Caroline's smile immediately disappeared. Just hearing this man's name made her feel uncomfortable.
"Don't you think that many things...I mean the chaos, are actually caused by the other party?"
Yuanjian shook his head, sat cross-legged and said, "No, Lord Lin Heng made me understand another essence, which is about the essence of the galaxy - the never-ending war."
Caroline spread her hands. Although she was indeed helpless, the reality was just as the other party had said. She was just speechless as to why the other party always mentioned that guy.
"What is your next plan, setting up an outpost and establishing a base of operations?"
“That’s too difficult. Without professional equipment and decades of time, it’s impossible to build a decent base of operations.
I want to find an old friend and hope I can get help from her.”
"female?"
"Well, they are students of the same teacher... but they are the kind that broke up."
"A traitorous friend is the most dangerous enemy..."
"Of course." Farsight sighed.
"She's famous, isn't she?"
"Yes, her name is O'Shasera, the hero of the third Star Expansion, the pioneer of the Greater Good, the true disciple of Commander Qingxi, the nemesis of the green-skinned barbarians, the mainstay against the Zerg Hive Fleet, Corey..."
"No need to be so detailed." Caroline was surprised by the lengthy honor, thinking that the two were worthy of being students of the same teacher and worthy of being friends with a long-lasting friendship.
"Shadow Sun, her most famous nickname is Shadow Sun."
Caroline pondered over this unique name. The words conveyed by the translator might be slightly different, but she could detect some clear traces from it.
"A shadow blocking out the sun, a strong and sturdy body."
"Yes." Yuanjian's sigh was full of recognition.
"Although I am also a student of Teacher Qingxi, I am far inferior to Yingyang in conducting large-scale expeditions and efficiently utilizing fleet resources."
Years of fighting taught Yuanjian to stay humble, and witnessing the comings and goings of people taught him to stay calm.
He is no longer the heroic and enthusiastic Fire Clan warrior who works hard every day.
"I'm not sure this meeting will have a good effect, after all, we haven't communicated for a long time.
It can be said that this is even walking into a trap. I plan to carry only a very small number of troops to conduct exploration.
The rest of the soldiers and fleets stayed in the outermost meteorite group of the Cassandra galaxy, waiting for news.
If there is no news from me within six months, everyone will need to go back home and return to their respective duties in Farsight Enclave.
You can leave with them, or you can find your own people here. This is all I can do to help you."
Caroline lowered her head in deep thought, but in fact she didn't have any more plans for the future. She was now no more than a handful of duckweed.
Having been a pirate for so long, and having come into contact with many alien races on his father's behalf, the present vision ranked high in his senses.
So, after thinking it over, before Yuanjian said he would think about it slowly, she made up her mind.
"I'll go with you. You saved my life, and I owe you a favor that I can never repay.
All I can do is use my spiritual power to help you, of course...if you believe in my prophecy."
Yuanjian did not show any excitement, perhaps he had guessed that this situation would happen.
He stopped sitting cross-legged and stood up, half bowed to Caroline, and then thanked her:
"Then we don't have time to lament the profoundness of fate. In this case, let's set off immediately."
Farsight summoned all the senior officers of the fleet and laid out his suicidal decision. As expected, all the generals instinctively opposed his idea.
Especially for several of the Eight Visionaries, Juxing directly targeted Ether with his resentment, wishing he could blow them up in his combat uniforms right now.
Almost everyone advised Yuanjian that there was no need to unite the armies and it would not be a bad idea to return to the Yuanjian enclave and live in peace.
The unanimous persuasion of everyone failed to straighten out Yuanjian's thoughts, but instead made Caroline beside him very emotional.
She understood what Yuanjian was thinking. The other party's attitude of refusing to break was a manifestation of his will of fire.
Either burn or go out. There are no more options for him to choose.
"I am still your commander."
Farsight's words were unquestionable, and the officers were dejected.
He already felt that his life was coming to an end. Although the war blade could restore his body, every time he no longer held it, his body aged more and more severely.
"Follow my instructions."
He didn't want to survive as an AI after death, like his teacher Qingxi. He hoped that he could see a hopeful picture before he died.
"Maybe we'll get better news."
He knew that Yingyang was the same as him. The brevity of life made him more eager for victory.
If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent.
