Chapter 470: Grab and Run, Build Armor
Chapter 470: Grab and Run, Build Armor
In the dim and lightless sea of stars, the Veratrum-class frigate was activating its holographic force field, and all the crew members were waiting boredly yet cautiously.
They didn't know why they were suddenly heading into the starry sky. This unusual scene also contained the captain's nervousness.
The most senior officers all stopped frolicking and stayed at their workstations, even though there was nothing they needed to do.
The crew members were talking about it, and in the secret room in the captain's room, they were convincing each other about the reason for the discussion.
“My daughter, you have to know that all-in is a kind of wisdom, not to mention that we haven’t invested too much energy yet.
No matter what, as long as there is a chance, no matter how much I bet, as long as it concerns Lin Heng, I will definitely go all out! "
The dreamer Caroline took a deep breath to calm herself down, if it weren’t for the “Blade Oath Followers” who were her father’s personal guards, they would not have recognized any of their relatives.
She would definitely go up to Engul and grab him by the collar, shaking him hard, injecting him with psychic power to sober him up.
"Go all out? We obviously have enough spiritual bones in our warehouse, why do we let the other party take risks and steal other people's storage!"
Ngur waved his hand to signal his followers to stand guard at the door, then said with a look of disappointment:
"Such small favors are useless. You see, even without us, the other party will definitely be able to get it through various means.
Besides, every penny saved is a penny earned. This can be considered a disguised investment. I don’t plan to charge him for the ship’s departure this time.
No matter how many spirit bones Lin Heng can get back, I don't want any of them. Humph, I have a bigger plan!"
Caroline was so angry that her teeth were itching, thinking that this man was so stubborn that if it weren't for her father she really wouldn't bother to care about him.
"Father...this is really not a war you and I can join."
Caroline looked very tired. She could feel the horror slowly approaching. She really couldn't wade into this muddy water.
"No risk, no gain. Dangers and opportunities coexist. With Lin Heng here, our plan will definitely go much more smoothly."
"Did you understand what I said? Lin Heng is the danger himself?!
The stronger he is, the more likely it is that the shadow behind him will cover the strait and the entire sea of stars!"
Caroline wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but suddenly she received a star message in her mind.
"Is it Lin Heng?"
The brief pause allowed her expression to change, and seeing her change in expression, Ngur immediately asked happily.
Caroline didn't want to say anything more. She just entered the coordinates into the Thinker and turned away.
Soon the Veratrum-class frigate set sail and quickly headed for deep space. The atmosphere of deep space was desolate without any reference points.
So much so that everyone felt like they were not moving at all during the voyage.
However, loneliness only accompanied them for two short days, and Lin Heng's psychic signal finally became clearer.
After traveling billions of kilometers, a bright spot of light in the dark space attracted the attention of the observer.
The glowing sphere made people realize that it was the target of this voyage, and the exploration vessel broke away from the main ship and approached quickly.
By the time the ship returned to the frigate, all the idlers in the hangar had been evacuated, and they were looking at the huge spirit bone crystal that had fallen to the ground.
The coral-like tubular structure was emitting an incomparable glass luster, which made the Bone Chanter craftsmen very happy.
"Quick, take it apart and take a look."
Following Ngur's order, the craftsman immediately used his spiritual power to change the structure of the spiritual bone, and a crack soon appeared in the boulder-sized crystal.
Lin Heng, dressed in standard pirate costume, stepped out, which amazed the group of craftsmen.
"It's been long enough."
"Hahaha, I'm late. But this proves that part of what you said before was not a lie.
Open the webway. Use wraithbone. Really, how many more surprises do you have in store for me?"
Engel said as he looked at Lin Heng, then focused his attention on Caroline.
Caroline understood that her father was still saying that what Lin Heng said was true, but he still couldn't see the crisis behind this appearance.
The game is too big and my father doesn't have enough money to play two rounds.
The entire spirit bone crystal weighs 1300KG. Engul knew that the ship was equipped with these, but he didn't expect there would be so many.
"No trouble, eh?"
Lin Heng shook his head. All he wanted was the spirit bones, not killing. He would just rob them and leave, seeking profit and avoiding harm.
"You're a better pirate than I am. If you have any requests, just go home and tell me. Haha, this is such a beautiful pile."
Ngur looked at the glittering spiritual bones and his saliva was about to flow out, but after returning to the strait, Lin Heng put forward his own request first.
...
"What? You want all of these! No, no, no, you can leave two for me. If not, I will exchange them with your ship."
There are also differences between spiritual bones. Using existing spiritual bones to create armor is one thing, and condensing high-quality spiritual bones is another.
Ngur had no problem making armor, but purifying high-quality spiritual bones was somewhat difficult.
Faced with such high-quality spiritual bones, he was naturally happy, but he didn't expect that Lin Heng would ask for so much and not leave him even a gram.
In fact, it can’t be said that Lin Heng is greedy. After all, he plans to use all these spiritual bones.
The Empire has regular power, Phobos power armor, Primaris power armor, Terminator armor, and various versions of Dreadnought armor.
Then why couldn't he build himself some armor that suited his body size?
An armor that combines the strongest materials of the Empire and the Eldar, several armors that can adapt to its changes in size, and an armor that is both physical and surreal.
"Fuck, but you can't be so greedy."
Ngur seemed to be feeling uncomfortable on the surface, but secretly he was extremely happy.
"Okay, no problem. I'll give you all the spirit bones, and I won't charge you any tax on the refined gold. I'll give you as much as you want. If it's not enough, you can get it together. If you can't get it together, you can rob others.
As long as you accompany me to Somnium's Scourge to find something, my craftsmen on the Strait will be at your disposal."
"can."
Hearing Lin Heng say this, Engul gave Caroline a very obscure look, and his meaning was clearly saying.
"Everything is in your father's plan!"
And Caroline glared back very obviously.
"You are the most reasonable!"
If other officials saw the prince's two-sided operations, they would certainly admire his foresight. However, Caroline only felt that her father could deceive anyone and was only worried that he would deceive her in the end.
...
In order to prepare for future battles, Lin Heng really needs the craftsmen under Engul.
After all, anyone can use minerals like refined gold, but only the elves can control spiritual valley.
As for the blueprints, it can only be said that Ahriman really knows too much about the Empire. Not to mention the various secret methods. There are also many internal blueprints of power armor.
Although many of them are marked with the Iron Warriors logo, they all have the same goal.
He only needed to make a few minor changes to fit his body shape, and the rest of the armor was left to professionals. Engel's craftsmen did a better job.
The craftsmen who received the death order immediately began to conceive, and the difficulties they had to go through during the process were no easier than fighting outside.
So the traditional cable propulsion facilities are replaced by spirit bones. But it is easier said than done, and this combination is the first time.
But once they are made, they will be able to create a precedent. And super combat armor that combines defense and attack. Plus a communication mode that combines traditional and psychic energy.
This is an enhanced version of 1+1 being greater than . However, the time required may be infinitely extended.
For this reason, Lin Heng no longer regarded himself as a slave of the fire lizard, but instead became Engul's personal bodyguard, that is, a member of the Blade Oath followers.
The people he wanted to protect were gathering as many fleets as possible at this moment.
Although Ngur is the commander of the Bright Sea Fleet, assembling such a large fleet requires convening a pirate assembly.
We need to discuss the division of benefits. Yes, we haven't won yet, and we need to agree on the division of the spoils before returning to the city.
The captains must be made aware of the profits to be made, otherwise who would dare to sail to the disaster zone?
Anyway, it took half a month just to wait for people to gather for this pirate conference, and these pirate captains were all arrogant and domineering.
Before Ngur came out, everyone was in charge of their own affairs and didn't like anyone else. Before the meeting even started, all kinds of fights broke out.
I don't even know where the courage came from. Jing sent the assassin to sneak into Ngur's bedroom. Fortunately, the Blade Oath follower reacted in time, and even so, the other party detonated the bomb hidden on his body.
Not only did it kill several innocent servants, but it also made possible clues disappear.
But it was strange. After this incident, the pirates suddenly became quiet. One by one, they gathered at the Prince Qin's mansion to ask about his well-being.
Within two days, the pirate conference was successfully convened. The scene was unusually harmonious and stable.
"Oh, isn't it just an assassination? It's a daily routine, a daily routine."
So, they closed the door and chatted about family matters. Caroline and Lin Heng did not attend this meeting. It was not because they did not want to, but because they were not allowed to.
After the three-day meeting, the captains of the pirate fleets kept silent about the content of the meeting. They just continued to gather their own fleets and prepared to attack the disaster zone.
"What kind of treasure can make them so crazy?"
"Oh, of course it's a good thing. Let me make it clear first, since you agreed to come with me, you can't snatch this thing away."
Seeing Lin Heng nod, Engul couldn't help but sigh. If possible, he could exchange the Dark Strait for the entire Bright Sea Fleet.
However, judging by his appearance, his emotional state did not seem to be a sincere desire to fight, but rather a kind of tenderness in the heart of a warrior.
After handing a large amount of information to Lin Heng, Engul left in a hurry. As the commander of the fleet, he must always be at the forefront.
He used half of his own property to finance this operation, so that the pirate captains were able to follow him.
There were nearly three hundred ships in total, including eighteen main battleships such as the Void Stalker class.
Relying on their mobility and concealment capabilities, any person or force that encounters them will be in catastrophic disaster.
However, their alliance is not as solid as that of the Imperial Army. This loose union may only be for show but not for fighting hard battles.
"Since the Eldar split into many different forces, the inherent bad nature of the autonomous states has become extremely prominent. In a state where no one is willing to submit to the other, marching alone is even more profitable than fighting together."
When Lin Heng was looking up information about the Somnim disaster belt, the voice of dreamer Caroline sounded from behind him.
The other person looked tired, and after he finished speaking, he folded his arms and leaned against the wall.
"Another prophecy and divination?" Lin Heng took a glance and then continued to look at the information.
Caroline curled her lips, closed her eyes and nodded.
"Yes."
"How is the result?"
"Hard to say."
"It takes 20 days to reach the Somnium Scourge Belt."
"Huh..what is your purpose?"
Lin Heng wrote down the key information in the data. The chaos started from the Worshiper Galaxy and spread outward.
"Isn't it obvious? Of course we go to the disaster zone to dig for treasure."
"Bullshit!"
Caroline stood up suddenly, her eyes wide open and bloodshot, with the same angry expression as when she faced her father.
"You are just like my father, using lies to cover up your true intentions.
What you are looking for must be the second existing Primarch of the Empire, Lion El'Jonson!"
Lin Heng wanted to remind the other party that her information was a little behind schedule. It should be four people. The Wolf King guy might have gone to his hometown now. And Vulcan should have arrived in Terra.
"Well, you guessed it, but don't you know that you are your father?"
"Yes, he definitely knows, but what he doesn't know is that you are still hiding something. You are a monster targeted by the evil god! You, what kind of horrible and twisted entity are you!"
Caroline was panting, she was so angry that she couldn't control herself, while Lin Heng was surprised, he didn't expect that the other party could guess his true nature.
"I am human, yes..."
"You are a damned monster! You must leave the fleet, leave the strait, and leave the Eldar! You are tainted with the evil power of Chaos.
The evil god's eyes are fixed on you all the time. I can feel the changes in you. Although you try your best to hide it, you can't cover up the disgusting smell!"
Caroline finished speaking in one breath. Due to lack of oxygen, she swayed twice, took two steps back and leaned against the wall again.
Lin Heng's pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes immediately became colder.
"Don't rely solely on prophecy and divination. Digging deeper and deeper will only put you in jail."
"It is you who are imprisoned now! You have merged with the subspace to the point where you cannot be separated, to the point where electricity and earth combine to form a crystallized chemical reaction.
Why did you join Dark Straits, why did you use us as a springboard, what is your ultimate goal? You dangerous monster..."
Caroline was shaking more and more, and after she finished her last sentence, she fainted without catching her breath.
Lin Heng looked at the dreamer lying on the ground, and in silence looked at the six-dimensional diagram that he had ignored long ago. The lit mark on it never disappeared.
It just becomes clearer.
