Chapter 507: The Mystery of the Relics of Escape
【Vision】
The Tau soldiers brought a lead box with a hazardous materials label and carried Farsight inside.
The weapon, the Blade of Dawn, was also placed inside. Feeling the cold blade of the sword, Yuanjian's pain seemed to be alleviated a little.
"The journey is a bit bumpy, Mr. Yuanjian, please hold on for a while."
As the soldier spoke, he injected the nutrient solution into Yuanjian's body, then locked the lead box and turned on the ventilation system.
After I respectfully gave Yingyang a final military salute, I immediately escorted the person who had caused the big incident away quickly.
Yingyang stood in the corridor and watched them leave. At this moment, she was calm and did not consider at all what would happen if the truth was revealed.
Even she herself could not imagine her motive for saving people. It was the impulse in that moment that made her make a choice that could lead to her eternal damnation.
"I hope you're right."
Yingyang installed the bomb in the prison and then sounded the fire alarm nearby.
The shrill sirens and dazzling lights warned everyone to evacuate.
After a deafening explosion, Vision on the transport plane also felt the shock brought by the impact.
But he couldn't see it. He couldn't see Yingyang's mixed feelings in the shadows that were made darker by the firelight.
Time accelerates, people flow, messages are transmitted, and people are surrounded and intercepted.
The Ether mentors were furious when they learned that the prison had been bombed. Not only had the criminal escaped, but one of the Ethers who had gone to interrogate him was also missing.
All the Fire Clan troops responsible for the guard were dismissed, and the senior officers were thrown into prison to be punished later.
Yingyang sat at one end of the table, his face livid and long, while the Ether Master opposite him was erupting with an unprecedented rage.
He kept questioning everyone about their current vision, but unfortunately no one knew the answer.
This was the darkest move Ying Yang had made, a method she had learned from humans, so much so that she even shed tears after deciding how to proceed. "It's all my fault. I failed to fulfill my duty as a guardian," Ying Yang silently interrupted.
The Great Master of Ether's eyes narrowed slightly. It was he who withdrew Yingyang's troops to prevent the influence of the past relationship between the two.
Looking back today, it really seems like they shot themselves in the foot.
"This is not your problem, and now is not the time to find fault with anyone. What I want is foresight. I want to see the person alive or the body dead!"
Before summoning Shadowsun and other clan leaders to the Elemental Council Hall, Aether had already issued a martial law order.
At this moment, all major airports were closed, and many Qi clan merchant caravans complained, but since it was an order issued by the Ether Council, everyone could only accept it humbly.
The transport plane docked at the Star Harbor Pier, and the pro-enclave soldiers hurried to the boarding platform carrying lead boxes.
"No entry. The Ether Council has ordered that no one may leave without permission. What is your unit number and the order you are executing?"
Outside the registration platform, soldiers under martial law tried to stop them.
The senior commander took off his helmet, and it was the one who followed Shadowsun and had a conversation with Farsight.
"Under the orders of Commander-in-Chief Ying Yang, we are transporting items to weaken the plague on Cardinal World. The transport code was uploaded yesterday. Please check it."
"Hello, Commander. We do have the code, but no one is allowed to leave now. We have to wait until the martial law ends..."
The senior commander drew out his blaster pistol and pointed it at the soldier. He grabbed the soldier by the collar and cursed at the gunpoint:
"Cardinal, the plague has infected millions of people around the world, including your family members.
If you delay for a minute, hundreds of people will die. If you delay for a day, tens of thousands of people will be infected. Get out of my way!"
The senior commander was very arrogant, but the soldiers on the other side perfectly inherited the principles of the Will of Fire. They never retreated in the face of a strong enemy and insisted on not giving in to the rules of their superiors.
“I’m sorry, Senior Commander, even if Commander-in-Chief Ying Yang is here, you can’t just leave. You must have the order from your superiors.
We can report this mission for you, but you'd better wait patiently until the confirmation of release is returned."
The soldiers under martial law gathered together. The senior commander looked coldly at the crowd around him, calculating in his mind what to do next.
"This is the release code from our superiors. Protecting the Cardinal World is the highest level mission."
A hooded Air Clan member stepped forward and handed a data pad to the nervous soldier.
The soldier took the panel without any doubt and was about to check the code when a bright light exploded in front of everyone.
They didn't have time to block the spectrometers in their helmets, and the bright flash hypnotized them into a daze.
The tall and thin Air Clan lifted his burqa, revealing his delicate face and pointed ears. Caroline from the Eldar helped Farsight at the critical moment.
"wake up."
As his voice rang out, the eyes of those equally dazed pro-enclave soldiers gradually focused.
"Spirit...Spirit tribe?"
The senior commander swung his pistol, but then recalled that Commander Shadowsun had mentioned the possibility of the Eldar appearing.
“You come here for the vision?”
Caroline nodded quickly, motioning for everyone to follow her, and the soldier immediately picked up the lead box and followed.
After boarding the small merchant ship, the senior commander took another look at the starport, then took out his data tablet and activated the pre-buried bomb.
"BOOM!"
...
"Four airports were bombed. The casualties are still unknown. Many ships have left the port without authorization to avoid potential dangers..."
The voice of the Etherian mentor became smaller and smaller, and his sharp eyes began to focus on everyone present, scanning them one by one.
Except for the leaders of the auxiliary legions, all the Tau personnel made some kind of inner voice under his gaze.
"Damned traitor, he should have been torn into pieces on the first day!" the Water Clan ambassador cursed angrily.
"It seems that the monitoring system needs a comprehensive upgrade." The Tu clan craftsman said with annoyance.
"We will ensure that no ship will leave the starport." The captain of the Air Caste affirmed. A look indicated that Shadowsun could still rely on the concentration honed by years of experience on the battlefield to fight back.
And when the remaining dozen or so gazes fell, Yingyang's mouth began to tremble and his stomach churned, as if something was about to burst out.
There was a dark side of herself deep inside that was crawling down her esophagus, as if she would be unable to help but yell out everything she had done in the next moment.
It had been years since she had faced the gaze of the Ethers, their unspeakable power, their ability to bring out the voices deep within one's heart.
"I..I..fuck..."
Yingyang's mind went blank. She felt so stupid for forgetting the thing she should pay attention to most.
However, Farsight should have been sent away, but she herself would have to become his prisoner.
"Go ahead, Commander-in-Chief."
“I…I am a sinner of the Tau…I should have let the Ether Mentors interrogate Farsight immediately.
I should not have let the honor of trying a traitor cloud my sanity. My actions have thwarted the Tau Empire's plans to eliminate a major threat.
I am a profit-driven fool, and I shouldn't even be the commander-in-chief of the Fire Caste forces anymore!"
Yingyang leaned on the table with both hands and panted. The people around him were a little surprised, especially the Ether Mentors.
The Grand Master's gaze became more intense, as if he wanted to see even more subtle traces of the other person's heart through the narrower slits of his eyes.
But no matter how he acted, Yingyang's heart was gradually calming down.
"It's not your fault, Commander Yingyang, I can understand your pursuit of honor.
After all, it is this devotion to the Tau Empire that drives you to expand your borders, a perfect testament to the Greater Good."
Yingyang didn't listen to the rest of the conversation, which was nothing more than the issuance of some searching or hunting plans.
She was shocked at what had just happened. She should have told Ether everything, but she unexpectedly changed her words and even resisted Ether's questioning.
The reason she was able to accomplish such a feat was not due to her own mental fortitude, but because of the divine power bestowed upon her by the Goddess T'aiva.
The shadow descended from the ceiling, until only she could see it, and the goddess's double-ear hanging bottle poured out a gurgling aura.
Yes, the warm current that he had experienced before was flowing through his body again, so that the influence of the ether's power disappeared in an instant.
Then the goddess shook the bell in her hand, and after a light "ding-dong" sound that no one could hear rang out, all the corresponding words came out through her mouth.
"Oh my god..." Yingyang sighed and asked himself: "What the hell is going on here! Goddess Tiawa actually helped me."
The one who can resist is the Etheric Master. What does this mean? Is this... is this the division of the Greater Good?
Foresight, you better come back alive. And goddess, what do you represent?
...
In the starry sky, Yuanjian, who was gradually moving away from the planet, was finally able to walk out of the lead box. Although he still needed to be supported by others, at least he could speak.
"Your prediction was very accurate. If I had known it earlier, it wouldn't have mattered if I had suffered a little more."
Caroline couldn't bear to look at the skinny and exhausted appearance. Although her prediction was proven to be correct, the process was still too painful.
"But your suffering will never end. Even greater suffering awaits you in the future."
Yuanjian clenched his fists, feeling the return of strength, and shook his head with a smile:
"Don't be afraid. A single spark can start a prairie fire. Now it's time to move on to the next step. Have you contacted the fleet?"
"We have connected to the fleet. They said they will rendezvous with us immediately."
Three days later, the foresighted fleet found the merchant ship, and several of the eight heroes immediately boarded the merchant ship with their troops.
When they saw the commander who was standing unsteadily and trying to smile, Ju Xing, one of the Eight Heroes, wanted to kill the pro-enclave soldiers in front of him immediately.
"stop!"
Torch Star's cannon was almost hitting the other person's face, but fortunately she was still able to obey Farsight's orders.
“I know you and other people in the enclave don’t agree with my approach, but this is indeed the best decision I have ever made.
The other flag of the Fire Clan has already changed direction, and Xiasela'ou'yingyang already understands what the future will hold.
She told me one of the truths, that the Tau are undergoing a new round of evolution, and I think you all have the potential to be witnesses of this.
But now, before the changes come, we still need to complete a series of tasks step by step.
Follow my instructions and head to Cardinal Astorgius World to expand our future allies!"
...
【Lin Heng】
Looking at the dozen or so holy relics placed on the table, Lin Heng silently felt the wonderful aura contained in them.
Those objects stained with the blood of orcs and chicken thieves, under the coverage of his spiritual energy, are emitting a kind of charming glow.
Lin Heng has not yet understood the wonderful abilities they can display, but he can draw some conclusions from divination.
That is, these items do not only provide positive capabilities. If certain conditions are not met, it is very likely that bad things will happen.
Like the martyr's shroud, it is a mutual transformation of harm, which to a certain extent cannot provide good results.
Just like when Lin Heng first came into contact with it, it was not in his hands, but instead a burden.
Although this kind of relic with a side effect debuff can burst out powerful abilities, the adverse effect may kill the user.
In one of the battles against an ammunition depot, the thieves used a hand bone full of holes.
A total of 13 infected children blew it, but 12 of them blew it successfully.
However, this does not mean success, but rather it blows the whistle of some kind of death.
All 12 children suffocated to death. Later investigation revealed that their lungs were devoured by an unknown force.
The last person successfully used the catalyst and attached it to the arm of a distorted overlord.
The punch unleashed a gust of wind that shattered dozens of orc boys, and the entire building collapsed under the power of the relic.
However, under the continuous suppression of orcs and fart elves, even the holy relics will be exhausted.
Lin Heng put the hand bone back on the table. He didn't want to try to blow it. Although it was in his hand now, there would inevitably be dangerous situations.
Things like the "Martyr's Shroud" were already heretical enough, and now all kinds of strange and bizarre relics made him instinctively feel that something was wrong.
He had thought that the other relics would be more like the rosary he had first seen, just some blessed objects.
Like a bullet shell engraved with holy mottos that can serve as a talisman, or a tattered cloak stained with blood but can provide mental fortitude.
But when more and more holy relics came together, what was put together made him a little nervous.
More than a dozen holy relics are linked together, and they can actually form a perfect whole.
"The nerve veins of the painful thorns, the left arm of the insect-singing wind whistle, the pelvis of Teld born of darkness, the skeleton of the shield wall of protection..."
Lin Heng just felt that these things were a bit too heretical. These things were very much like trying to piece together a human figure in order to resurrect something.
Most of these skeletal relics are not even of the same species.
After a round of comparison, Lin Heng found that two things were still missing.
These items are all physical necessities that make up the human body, but a person's foundation, his inner self, is not included in the catalog.
Either it was not lost and was still under the control of the church. Or, there was something else that the church wanted to insert.
A pair of eyes, a soul. If he guessed correctly...
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is a trick. It seems these religious fanatics want to do a resurrection trick. Who can they resurrect?"
Taraxin's words made Lin Heng tense up. Who could be resurrected?
