Chapter 479: Old Covenant
Chapter 479: Old Covenant
"Lord Isis, it's been a long time." After stopping Haivian, Tyrannosaurus politely greeted the undead: "At the same time, I extend my regards to you on behalf of Lady Lia Weide."
When the name "Isis" came out, the already unstable electric current lines on Hai Wei'an's body flickered again. It was obvious that this name stimulated her.
Tyrannosaurus remained humble and calm. It was unclear whether he was unaware of the significance of this name to Hai Weian, or whether he was deliberately provoking the other party's minefield.
"I gave you a second life, and I can also take it back." Hai Weiyan said, and the portal behind her closed.
But if at this moment, someone wore night vision goggles that had been strengthened by Om Messiah and could detect the Death Mark hyperspace to observe the surrounding universe, they would find that from the scale of the galaxy, the space of the entire Anwo galaxy began to fluctuate like water, and a system-level hyperspace was connected to the material universe.
Beneath these fluctuating water surfaces, giant objects as large as natural satellites and hundreds of kilometers long slowly emerge from the bottom of the water, casting shadows on the water surface.
The gravity generated by these giant objects has already crossed the barrier between hyperspace and the material universe. Some small spaceships parked around the shadows began to slowly drift away from the dock, and the passengers on them who knew nothing about anything were even more puzzled as to why the natural light suddenly dimmed.
These are the weapons of the Lorosa Dynasty, the Necrons' fleet, many of which have been sealed since the tragic battle tens of millions of years ago.
In addition to the Lorosa Dynasty, some powerful Necron dynasties also retained these great megastructures, but after years of erosion, many of them have fallen into eternal slumber.
"Based on our old agreement, I'll give you one last chance." Hai Wei'an's tone calmed down, but became even more cruel. "If you don't want life in this entire star region to be destroyed in an instant, please step aside and hand that human over to me."
"Your current condition is very unstable, Lady Hevian." Facing Hevian's threat, Tyrannosaurus did not retreat. He reached into his sleeve and took out a spine sealed in glass.
After seeing this piece of spine, Hai Wei'an was obviously stunned for a moment, then she stretched out her hand, and the piece of spine naturally flew out of the Tyrannosaurus's hand and fell into her hand.
"Lady Lia Weide asked me to tell you not to forget our old agreement. If you act too hastily, you might end up ruining everything."
Hai Weiyan did not answer. She looked at the spine in her hand, pondered for a long time, and finally put it into hyperspace.
"Horus."
Then she called out to her pet, which was flying and barking around, and Horus obediently landed on Hevian's shoulder. Originally, the mechanical falcon's fur had stood up along with its owner, like a large pine cone, but now that Hevian had settled down, Horus's fur had also shrunk.
Another flash of green light appeared, and the portal opened again behind Hevian.
"This is your last chance."
With that, she stood still, but the portal moved forward to envelop her, then closed.
The ruler of the Lorosan Dynasty left the Great Silence, and with her left the Necron fleet waiting in hyperspace and a war that might have exceeded the level of Apocalypse.
After seeing off the great god in front of him, Tyrannosaurus couldn't hide his long sigh of relief, and his shoulders relaxed slightly.
Even though he could use psychic power to create a black hole with his bare hands, Tyrannosaurus still had no confidence that he could deal with the king of the Necrons.
Then he turned around, looked at Howard who had stood up behind him, and said:
"If she hadn't calmed down just now, I would have had no choice but to let her take you away."
Howard stood there for a long time before he reluctantly asked a question: "What's going on?"
"We've been observing you lately, trying to see if you're trustworthy," Tyrannosaurus replied. "It wasn't the right time to tell you these secrets, but you've come this far... Come with me. Lady Liavide is waiting for you."
Half an hour later
Inside the Wide Silence, a secret room
Lia Weide used a knife and fork to cut off a small piece of food on the plate and put it into her mouth.
Her body had undergone a complete and thorough mechanical transformation, with her lips and tongue replaced by metal, but she still retained the ability to eat. However, given the rough and utilitarian style of the Empire's transformation surgeries, it remained a question how much of the original flavor of the food her replaced lips and tongue could still taste.
After eating the food in her mouth, Lia Weide waved her finger slightly, and then a servant only cut off a piece of food and left.
"fantastic."
Lia Weide made a comment.
Then she looked at Howard, who was sitting across from her at the other end of the table, and asked, "Before we begin, I want to ask you a question."
But before Howard could answer, she asked, "You were able to find Miss Hai Wei'an and learn about the Second Terra. Was this your own effort, or was there someone helping you?"
This question made Howard hesitate, but in just a moment of hesitation, Leah Weide got the answer.
"You don't have to answer." Liya Weide raised her hand to stop Howard who wanted to speak: "No need."
"Let me first explain to you what I can," Lia Weide said. "The cooperation between the Helvensin family and the Necrons didn't begin with me, but goes back much further, all the way to the origins of this family."
"Of course, I'm not trying to excuse myself from collaborating with Miss Hevian. I even feel a little regretful that I wasn't the driving force behind this collaboration... I know some extreme Inquisitors can't tolerate such behavior, but who cares?" At this point, Leah Weed asked Howard, "Mr. Howard, what about you? Do you care whether your partner is human or not?"
Howard shook his head. He really didn't care, and at the same time he knew that many of the "humans" in the eyes of those extreme judges mentioned by Lia Weide could not be considered human beings.
"As early as the Dark Age of Technology, our ancestors arrived here, excavating ruins and conducting research. Miss Hevian's design was ingenious. Different ruins held different mysteries, and solving them would yield corresponding knowledge... just like a trap to attract small animals... Others arrived with our ancestors at the time. They solved a few simpler mysteries, gained knowledge, and left satisfied. Only our ancestor, Wen Dao, continued to dig and research. When the final mystery was solved, he didn't gain knowledge, but the opportunity to meet the Pope of the Lorosa Dynasty."
