After walking for more than ten meters on the metal floor, Soshiyang suddenly saw a group of people walking in the distance in the aurora night. They were Skitarii, patrolling in accordance with the instructions, but the Skitarii from different forging worlds seemed to try their best.
Avoid each other and leave a large space.
As we walked further in, there were more patrols, and dragon-winged soldiers and ornithopters began to appear in the sky. It was obvious that the Mechanical Sages took this very seriously.
Arriving at the edge of a mountain crevice, the place was already brightly lit and various equipment was rumbling, making it look like a camp. Soshyan was led to an elevator and then began to descend.
During the descent, the darkness gradually swallowed up his figure, but was soon illuminated by the lighting ball nailed to the hanging wall. After descending to a height of more than a thousand meters, the elevator stopped, and Soshyan walked away.
When I went out, I found myself in a deep valley. When I looked up, I saw a winding fissure.
"This width...can the Titan transport it in? I didn't look carefully just now, but it seems to be only about a hundred meters wide?"
The light at the bottom of the valley is stronger than above, and there are servitors and work robots everywhere, as well as hurried mechanical priests. When they see Soshyan, they all bow their heads in respect.
After walking a few hundred meters along the road sign, Soshyan arrived at his destination. If you look up, you can't see the cracks here, which means it is located in the middle of the mountain. It is a wide space with a flat ground and artificial
There are traces of modification, and huge metal pillars can be seen all around, which may be used to support the rock mass. There is a magnificent door at the end. A door of this size has only been seen in one place -
The fortress of the Titan Legion.
"Is this a lost Titan Legion fortress?"
Soshyan looked at the door and murmured to himself, then looked at Dietrian.
"Sage, is this possible?"
"Chapter Commander, the possibility...is very low."
Dietrian shook his head. At this time, his body was much larger than when he first came to the Astral Knights. Many new technologies were added to his body. Soshyan was also very generous to his own people. Now he is almost tall
It's almost the same as Soshyan, a bit like a general.
"This planet has never interacted with any forge world..."
"It's hard to say. After this world 979.M35 first became a colony of the Human Empire, a subspace storm broke out, which isolated it from the outside world. Until 437.M39 was recovered by the empire, there were thirty-five
There are no clear records for centuries."
Soshyan walked towards the gate. At this time, many mechanical priests gathered here. They were clearly divided into four piles, representing the four forging worlds.
The four sages stood at the four corners without saying a word, as if they were performing some mysterious ritual, or perhaps in a confrontation.
"Sorry, I had something to hold you up for, so I'm late."
Finally, a relaxed voice broke the deadlock, and all the sages and priests turned around.
"Welcome, Your Majesty the Consul."
Soshyan came over while applauding.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Thanks to your efforts and talents, we were able to discover this treasure in such a short period of time."
Then he stopped and looked at the representative of Ulan Huda.
"So, are there any difficulties now?"
"Sir, after a comprehensive inspection, no danger was found, and there is no defense system. We have entered the control system of the gate and can open it at any time."
"Is it that simple? This is not like the attitude and way the Adeptus Mechanicus treats divine machines. They hide them defenselessly...in one place."
Soshyan looked up at the door for a while, then lowered his head and looked at the people.
"So, why not open it?"
The sage of Zhao-Akada replied:
"We are negotiating the entry process but out of a kind of confrontational distrust..."
Soshyan raised his hand to interrupt the other party.
"I understand. There is no need for you to say those disunified words. As long as I am here, they can't escape. Don't worry, everyone. So, open the door?"
Under Soshyan's strong intervention, the sages immediately gave up the dispute and began to get busy. Soshyan turned to Dietrian and said with a wry smile:
"Do we still have to fight over who gets in first?"
"Chapter Master, there has never been any trust between the Forge Worlds, and only your power can hold them together."
"Why do I sound like a tyrant?"
At this moment, various warning sounds sounded, followed by flashing red warning lights, followed by the roar of giant equipment.
Kakaka——
It was as if the bones that had been buried in the ground for many years were moving again. When the silent piston slowly moved, it made a sharp and harsh friction sound, and then the roar of the transmission device, as if an old donkey was trying its best.
Walking while pulling overweight cargo.
Slowly, amidst the deafening roars of various machines, the metal gate that towered more than a hundred meters began to show subtle movements, and then bit by bit, it expanded outward, when a dark gap opened in the center of the originally sealed door.
When he appeared, Soshiyang smelled the oncoming smell of decay, as well as various messy odors, such as rust, thick engine oil, etc...
Finally, when the door gap expanded to ten meters, the door stopped, and several servo skulls floated in first. After a few minutes, the darkness was illuminated.
"...This facility adopts geothermal function and maintains minimum power at all times."
After hearing the words of Sage Ulanhuda, Soshyan asked curiously:
"How many years did it last?"
"About ten thousand years."
"How long can it take?"
"There are not many subsystems, just maintaining some simple equipment."
"Interesting, let's go in and have a look."
As Soshyan walked towards the gate, other sages followed him.
As soon as he stepped in, Soshyan heard the whirring of the fan. Looking around, the scene in front of him was even more shocking.
This is a huge space dug deep into the mountain. In the center is a long metal bridge, with high-power searchlights on the edge. It is based on rocks. It is visually 50 meters wide. On both sides of the bridge are bottomless
A dozen meters away in the abyss, these are huge divine machines. They are fixed in shrines dug into the rock wall. They are painted in red and blue with their heads slightly lowered. They really look like sleeping gods.
.
Walking on the bridge is like entering the tomb of a dead god, and even Soshyan feels insignificant.
"War dogs...predators...warlords..."
Soshyan's eyes swept across the Titans, and finally he stopped in front of a Warlord. He looked at the flag hanging from the Titan's crotch, which showed a symbol of a skull pierced by a spear.
At this time, the sages seemed to have discovered something, and kept muttering privately. Soshiyang turned to the sages around him and said:
"I don't recognize the mark of this Titan Legion, but I guess...you guys should have figured it out."
It was the sage of Alatimus who answered him.
"My lord, this is...this is the Impaler Legion of High Valia."
