Chapter 20 The World Ship Transforms into a Ghost Ship
Seeing the new prisoners arriving, Chen Mo hammered his lower back and then stood up.
Lying on the floor all the time drawing magic circles is no small task for his waist.
Fortunately, thanks to the sufficient flesh, blood, and souls contributed by the Eldar captives, his work progress is not slow.
A huge magic circle has been drawn on the floor of the crystal dome. At this moment, some completed parts have begun their own work. While exuding a gleaming light, they are eroding the spiritual bone frame of the world ship and gradually affecting it.
It undergoes transformation.
The spirit bone frame is the absolute core and foundation of a world ship. It not only plays a role in supporting the entire spaceship in terms of physical structure, but is also the source of power for the entire world ship.
Because the Eldar themselves have strong psychic adaptability and subspace affinity, they are naturally powerful psykers.
This has resulted in the endless circuits used to accommodate the souls of the Eldar being filled with unimaginable amounts of spiritual energy. These spiritual energies support the energy consumption of the entire world ship, and are also used to protect and defend against attacks from the outside world.
It can be said that a world ship is quite difficult to capture. After all, each world ship is not only a perfect creation of the peak era of the Eldar Empire, but also a complete Eldar society in miniature.
Even the smallest world ship can accommodate a very large population.
Normally, that is the total number of inhabitants originally living on an Eldar planet.
Such a large population has naturally accumulated a considerable number of souls over a long period of time, as well as a huge amount of spiritual energy that echoes in endless circuits.
For the Eldar, this may just be the resting place of their ancestors' souls and the power source of the world ship, but for a Necromancer, this thing is an endless gold mine!
Hundreds of millions of souls! They are all high-quality souls!
Powerful psionic energy! Huge psionic energy powerful enough to drive a world ship!
For a necromancer, this is as irresistible and impossible as building a Daming Palace that is four times the size of the Forbidden City with candies and cakes, and then telling a super foodie and sweet tooth lover that he can eat with his cheeks open.
Extricate yourself.
Especially this cake palace is like Charlie's Chocolate Factory, which can continuously produce new cakes.
You must know that a world ship is a complete Eldar society. Even if it is a miniature version, it is still a complete social group.
Of course, it is impossible for all the large population to be warriors. There are still a considerable number of ordinary dancers, technicians and craftsmen.
After all, even if everyone in the Ark Spirit Tribe has to walk on the path, and the warrior path is the choice of most people, it is obviously impossible for everyone to be a warrior if a society wants to function.
This also led to the capture of an astonishing number of prisoners after the Necrons captured the world ship.
If they followed the past habits of the Necrons, they might directly blow up the world ship and execute all the Eldar, or they might recycle the waste and use biological transfer technology to transform them into new Necron to supplement the war effort.
Consumption.
But Trazin and Orikan seemed to have some special considerations. They did not touch these prisoners, but handed them over to Chen Mo along with the world ship.
Chen Mo, who boarded the world ship, was like a rat that fell into the Z grain storage granary. No matter how much he warned himself to be cautious, steady and low-key, he could not suppress his excitement.
So after he came to the Crystal Dome and checked the condition of the spirit bone frame and the endless loop, he immediately began to transform the world ship into a ghost ship.
After all, looking at a "ship" that is almost full of souls, even a necromancer would be tempted to turn it into a necromantic unit.
The ghost ship is undoubtedly the best choice. As for whether the world ship is a ship?
Huh? As long as it has the word "ship" or "ship" in it, and it can carry people and sail, why isn't it a ship? Isn't it just bigger?
So Chen Mo directly killed a group of spirit captives and began to pollute the endless loop with their flesh, blood and souls, causing the endless loop that was originally filled with pure spiritual energy to begin to transform into the undead, and the originally huge spiritual energy was also gradually changing.
Become the power of death.
It has to be said that this is a heavenly blessing for the Necromancer. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to find a place that accommodates hundreds of millions of souls.
Unless you can plunder the underworld of a ghost world, or directly slaughter a planet, you will never be able to get so many souls, especially high-quality souls with psychic affinity.
It's just the same, if you want to completely transform such a huge number of souls and the spiritual bone framework that supports an entire world ship, the workload is really too much!
When the Dragon Emperor asked for help before, Chen Mo came too hastily, and knowing the dangers of this world, he didn't bring any of his legions with him, so now he has to draw the magic circle by himself.
Those Necrons can do other jobs, but he can only do this kind of work related to necromancy.
This also forced Chen Mo to kill a few spiritual prophets who originally planned to stay, and transform them into corpse witches to help him share some of the workload.
It was precisely by relying on this batch of temporarily transformed spirit corpse witches that Chen Mo was able to control the entire spiritual bone frame in such a short period of time, successfully transforming it into the undead attribute, and at the same time withstand the countless monsters in the endless loop.
The resistance and impact of billions of souls.
But this still cannot change the fact that Chen Mo now has a job commensurate with the size of this world ship.
It can be said that even the necromancer himself who originally developed the ghost ship transformation technology probably never thought that one day a necromancer would transform a super giant world ship carrying hundreds of millions of souls and people.
This is no different than when Chen Mo made the Blood Sail before. The Blood Sail was just a wooden sailing boat tens of meters long, and it could be done by blood-sacrificing a hundred and eighty people.
If you want to transform a world ship, even the blood sacrifice must be world-class, and it probably won't be possible without 1.8 million people.
Although there were so many prisoners on hand, it wouldn't hurt to kill 1.8 million, but Chen Mo still didn't want to make this world ship, which was expected to become his mobile mage tower in the future, too bloody, and cause the resentment of hundreds of millions of souls.
The reason why I didn't do this was because even a god couldn't bear it. It was definitely not because it was difficult to clean up the bodies after killing 1.8 million people in blood sacrifice.
Therefore, he adopted a more cumbersome but safer method, constructing a transformation circle to rewrite the properties of the spiritual bone framework through gradual infection and transformation, thus polluting the endless loop and allowing the soul and spiritual energy in it to be used by him.
