Chapter 847: The Charlatan Beats the God
"Doesn't Perturabo keep asking you questions? Why don't you answer them?" Taraxin had an idea and successfully diverted Lin Fan's attention.
Perturabo's face was already livid because he was ignored twice. If it were him before, he would have stormed out in anger and sulked in a flying steel container that never sees the sun.
Lin Fan gave an apologetic smile, but in Perturabo's eyes, he looked like he deserved a beating.
Hold on, Perturabo.
Taking action won't solve the problem, it will only make your hands hurt for weeks.
"This void dragon is also a kind of Star God, and it is the strongest echelon among the Star Gods."
"So it is a dragon?" Fulgrim was very interested in the appearance of the void dragon. "Vulkan likes to decorate his armor in the style of a dragon, with shiny scales and a dragon head on his shoulder."
"It's hard to say." Lin Fan thought about the appearance of the void dragon. Many text descriptions emerged in Lin Fan's mind, but the impression he left was not as deep as the chess piece with a face replaced by runes, wings on its back and a silver humanoid body.
"Star Gods are the embodiment of physical rules, and their appearance is meaningless to them. I am more curious about the power that the void dragon controls." Perturabo urged Lin Fan not to work too hard on something as meaningless as appearance.
Then Lin Fan told everyone about the void dragon.
As the most technologically advanced Star God, the void dragon can directly control everything in the material realm. During the War in Heaven, the void dragon was almost invincible. Conceptual lightning can disintegrate all technological creations of the Eldar and the Orcs.
But fortunately, there are still non-material forces in this world.
The Eldar used their outstanding talent in psychic power to create ghost mechas driven by the souls of the dead to be immune to the attacks of the void dragons.
During the War in Heaven, the oppression brought by the void dragons to the Eldar gods was surprisingly strong. Finally, the Eldar god of forging, Vol, forged an amulet that could suppress the power of the void dragon. This amulet has a more common name today - Blackstone Fortress.
"Those fortresses are actually the creations of the Eldar?" The Primarchs were very surprised. From the design and materials, they all assumed that these void creations belonged to the Necrontyr.
But the Eldar prophets were even more surprised. Ivrene nodded slowly, saying as if waking up from a dream, "So the troupe's performance tells these stories? It seems that our previous understanding has been wrong."
Ivrene called a scholar specializing in Eldar history and asked him to rewrite the legends about the void dragons in the archives.
"Write it clearly, use less embellishment and metaphors. If you really can't write it simply, find an expeditionary commissar to help you revise it." Ivrene did not forget to remind the scholars who compiled the history.
When the Eldar were busy using the Black Stone to attack the Star God, the Necrontyr did not forget to weaponize the Black Stone. The bipolarity of the Black Stone can focus psychic energy to attack the Star God, and it can also suppress psychic energy to eliminate the combat capability of the Old Saints.
Countless Black Stone Spires were built during the war, and the most intense battles between the Old Saints and the Star Gods also had the most Black Stone Spires. The anti-subspace barrier created by these spires when activated can firmly separate reality from the subspace.
But this grand project of blocking the subspace was not realized. The Necrontyr took the lead in launching a war of revenge against the Star God who took their souls, and then there was a great sleep of 60 million years.
After listening for a long time, Perturabo suddenly spoke, "So, this Eye of Terror is likely to be a gap specially torn in the War in Heaven, used to provide the Eldar gods and the Old Saints with easier access to psychic power. Just like a fuel pipeline, a world like Cadia full of black stone spires is a valve that restricts fuel delivery?"
"That's about it." Lin Fan answered.
"It's so interesting, a god who can control machinery and even the concept of matter itself. Who else can deal with him besides you? The Void Dragon can decompose us all with just a flick of his finger." Perturabo said expressionlessly, and then Chagatai next to him suddenly remembered something.
Chagatai asked, "Do you remember Omnissiah? The God of All Machines that the Mechanicus believed in. I remember that in their doctrine, the Emperor is the incarnation of God of All Machines and the prophet who executes his will. So if this Void Dragon is placed in front of the Mechanicus, will they betray the Emperor?"
"That's a question." Dorn agreed with Chagatai's statement, "The power of the Mechanicus must be taken back. With the help of Ms. Odmayer, we don't need to worship and contain technology that we can't understand in a religious way."
"Haha." Curze, who had been silent, laughed strangely. He knew a lot of secrets, but he didn't want to share them with other brothers.
However, Curze was very happy to see the surprised faces of his brothers. "Is there a possibility that the Panacea worshipped by the Mechanicus is the Void Dragon? They just don't know it. Let's continue to expand our imagination. Will the Panacea - the Void Dragon stay next to the Mechanicus?"
"What?" Dorn rushed towards Curze, vowing to catch him and ask him clearly. He had already obtained a lot of information from Curze's hoarse voice. "You mean the Void Dragon is at the headquarters of the Mechanicus? On Mars?"
Curze did not reply to Dorn, but gave him a mocking smile. Dorn pursed his lips tightly, he was worried about the situation of the Emperor.
"It's okay, Dorn." Lin Fan comforted, "The Void Dragon can't beat the Emperor in a single fight. After all, he is now just a larger fragment, not as good as the outsider I met in the Tau Empire. In the ancient days when Terra was still called Earth, the Emperor pinned the Void Dragon to the ground and beat it. The Omnissiah Prophet beat Omnissiah to his knees and locked it up as a slave underground on Mars!"
"That was in the past." Dorn said seriously, "I don't know what kind of power changes there are between my father in the past and my father now, but I know that my father will never be able to deal with the Void Dragon like before. Not to mention that he is now bound to a machine called the Ascended Throne, even the evil gods of the Warp will kill my father when he fights the Void Dragon. I must go to Terra to help my father!"
Dorn's words do make sense. The Void Dragon may not be able to beat the Emperor in the God-Emperor state. But Tzeentch will definitely fan the flames between the two of them. If the anxious Void Dragon raises his hand and directly interferes with the throne, Terra will be in danger.
"Then we have to leave quickly. Deal with the affairs of Cadia quickly, and then you and I will go back to Terra to beat the Void Dragon until it begs for mercy." Just as Lin Fan finished speaking, a roar came from behind him, and then Taraxin's head hit his back.
