"So it's ancient? Part of an ancient empire like Commorragh?"
"No, this place doesn't have a long history. About five hundred years ago, Salain Mo, the Archon of the Shadowthorn Conspiracy who was expelled from Comoros by Victor, discovered an unstable Webway node.
An artificial planet, and then recruited Zar'gan Kull and his Split Claw Cabal to jointly develop this mysterious artificial sphere, and eventually took control of this creation to establish the Shadow Nexus, which served as a base for the attack on Kronos.
The Expanse, the Calixis Sector, and even the Screaming Vortex provide an excellent and concealed location for raids, and its location in the Webway also allows raiding parties to use it to enter the Segmentum Obscurus and beyond.
Hundreds of worlds away, so although this place makes Victor very angry, even slave traders from Comoros will do business here. There is a large slave market here second only to Comoros, even if
Not even Victor's anger can extinguish the enthusiasm created by interests, including the Iron Thorn Lords' conspiracy who want to go to the Screaming Vortex and pass through this area to sell some slaves here."
"Oh? Artificial planet?"
Soshyan had not paid much attention to this matter before, but he immediately became interested after hearing what Doral said, because the first thing he thought of was Ulan Huda.
"Have you ever been to the Shadow Hub, Aiqing?"
"Back to Your Highness, I've been there, um, seven or eight times."
"What kind of artificial star is that?"
Doral seemed to be prepared. He took out a golden ball, let it float in the air, and then projected a realistic shadow in all directions.
Soshiyang leaned forward slightly and looked around curiously with his eyes wide open. He saw in the shadow a completely artificial star. It seemed different from Ulanhuda, a mobile planet transformed from a natural planet. The entire surface of the planet was
Covered in a complex network of structures, towers, and support structures that extend downwards to roaring machines and endless engines, another close-up shot shows that the planet is entirely made of metal.
Wrapped by a structure.
There is a tumor-like existence on the planet, a bloated black stain stained on the rusty metal shell of the star, like an evil starfish adhering to its prey. The most conspicuous one is a tall and big one.
A huge tower, and undoubtedly has a strong Dark Eldar style.
"It's really...an artificial star..."
Soshyan murmured to himself.
"I never knew about this...it seems to have very strong traces of human civilization."
Then he looked at Doral.
"Sir Doral, why didn't you tell me about this before?"
Doral bowed and said:
"Your Highness has many things to do every day, and he is always coming and going in a hurry. I have always..."
Suoshiyang heard the other party's subtext, which was that he spent too little time in the royal court and didn't take care of things very much.
"Okay, besides these dear friends, what else do you know?"
"This artificial star seems to have a name in the human world, called Galan. It is about the size of a satellite and is built around a solid core. The core is hollow, with a huge, open space, surrounded by
A shell of machines, engines, and generators, forged on an asteroid that was originally cut into a sphere. There are still some remnants of the ore-rich asteroid, and its automated systems are slowly eating away at it to add more energy to the sphere.
There are more and more layers, and the sphere has a large number of self-sustaining systems and repair function programs. The large number of sensors and communication arrays distributed on its surface seem to imply that this creation was originally a detection device. As for how Galan ran.
Who entered the Webway is still a mystery. It may be that after being abandoned for countless epochs, it accidentally drifted through a Webway door and was sucked into it, or it may be some unknown force for some incomprehensible reason.
The purpose is to move it to the webway, and after it enters the webway, it finally settles in its current position for who knows how long.”
Soshyan leaned back slightly and stared at the slowly rotating artificial satellite.
This thing is very powerful.
The first thought that came to his mind was this.
Then came a second thought.
This thing must be very, very powerful!
Although his understanding of it is very superficial now, according to his understanding of the Adeptus Mechanicus, a semi-modified planet like Ulan Huda can already be called the most powerful space fortress, and the functioning satellite of Grea
It is also very amazing, but this is probably an artificial star from the Dark Ages. Not to mention the battleship, even the Mountain Formation may not be able to compare with it.
Then comes the third thought!
This thing must be obtained! It must be in his hands! In the hands of the Legion! In the hands of mankind!
It is the foundation for the Eleventh Army to truly settle down in the future!
At this time, Veronica suddenly said:
"How did Kelis Kanelli provoke the Split Claw Cabal? Isn't the cargo related to the Shadow Nexus?"
"Your Majesty, the cargo is indeed related to the Shadow Hub, which is why Zargarn Kuhl takes it so seriously."
"What is it?"
"one person."
"who?"
"The former ally of Zar'gan Kuhl, the Archon of the Shadowthorn Cabal, Sara'in Morn, who was later defeated by him."
Upon hearing this, Soshyan immediately asked:
"How did these two people fall out?"
Doral grinned.
"There is no room for two Ugul in one cave. After Sarain discovered the Galan Sphere, the Shadowthorn Cabal itself was unable to break through the star's own defense system and defeat the automated machine that guards the star. It was Zargarn...
Kull provided her with the much-needed power to assist her in the occupation. At that time, the strength of the two armies and fleets were actually about the same, but soon Zalgarn recruited a Haemonculus named Dracalus.
He stitched the spiral with his association. At this time, Zargarn's power had begun to exceed Sarain's, but not by much. Sarain was better at building cities than Zalgarn. She established the freedom of the Shadow Hub.
The concept of trade welcomes all factions into her city regardless of race, and prohibits her subordinates from attacking those who come to trade at will, no matter what race they are, because they can provide wealth and influence, and also provide additional protection.
, protecting her from those who tried to seize the city from her. This woman was not as aggressive and arrogant as Zargarn, which allowed her to gain many allies, including the pirate queen Kelis
·Canelli.”
"Oh, then it stands to reason... Sarain should be more competitive."
"It seems like this on the surface, but Sarain's problem is that she lacks enough aggression. She is too content with the status quo, addicted to her trade city and wealth empire, and ignores... Nothing
The wealth that is enough to support force is just a treasury that others can use at will. But even so, Zargarn does not have an absolute advantage in defeating Salain. However, this cunning Ugur took two steps
