Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 129 Black Stone, Black Stone

Roche had no way of knowing about the farce between the Endless and the Scryers in the tomb world, because at this moment he was restarting his investigation journey in the cave of Faros.

Although he had previously collected data on the operation of Fallows, there was obviously no conflict between simply possessing the data and controlling a physical machine.

When Roche returned to the primary position Alpha, he saw a special sphere the size of a human fist quietly placed on the instrument made of black stone.

The classic color combination of red on top and white on the bottom made Luo Xi raise his eyebrows.

"This is……"

His memory kept turning over the pages, and he recited the name that should have disappeared in the long river of time.

"This is a fucking Poké Ball. What the hell is that old guy Trazyn doing?"

Being able to see this creation of human culture that was born in the ultra-ancient era on this timeline is obviously the masterpiece of the king of figures who loves collecting.

Roxi didn't know what the purpose of those Necrons was, but at the moment, their good intentions outweighed their malice.

Although in this universe, the sudden appearance of kindness is more creepy than the sudden appearance of malice.

He knew that Taraxin's appearance was no accident. This guy and the other beings behind him hoped to get something from Luo Xi.

Luo Xi thought about it for a moment and then put the doubt behind him. One of his many advantages is that he doesn't think too much about things that haven't happened yet.

He took a few steps forward and held the creature that looked like a Poké Ball in his hand.

Immediately, a stream of information appeared in the brain, as if there was a voice instructing and telling Luo Xi the information contained therein.

He realized that this sphere was actually an information storage device, and in terms of function, it was the same as the USB flash drive used by ancient people on Earth.

"Tarazyn...what a wicked fellow."

The intelligent brain bracelet worn on the wrist extracted the data recorded in this information storage device and transmitted it to the Red Alert database in orbit.

"This is the Pharos. This is the principle and construction drawings of the Pharos facility. The friendliness of these Necrons is simply making my scalp tingle."

Luo Xi's words immediately excited Dantioch who was standing beside him.

"You mean, those metal skeletons directly gave us the information that we need to decipher with great difficulty and may not succeed? Are they crazy?"

That's an alien. How could an alien race be so friendly to other races?
The technology contained in Faros is a new ultra-long-distance communication system that transcends the empire's current technological system.

The theoretical system it relies on is not psionic, so it is not affected by warp storms.

For the human empire that is now torn apart by the warp storm, this communication and navigation system that can break through the influence of the warp storm is a real life-saving straw.

"No matter what, the information is finally in our hands." Luo Xi said with a smile, "We can eat the sugar coating and fight back. This is the words of a great man in ancient Terra, and it is still applicable today."

"That makes sense." The Warsmith nodded in agreement.

"In fact, we still only know a little bit about Pharos. We are too naive to think that it is just a machine capable of long-distance superluminal communication, or a beacon system capable of navigation."

Luo Xi sighed, the technology of the undead was truly shocking.

Even the humans of the past, at least the humans in his memory, although they had made great achievements, had to surrender in front of the magical technology of the Necrons.

How on earth did they develop technology to this point?

As a student and friend of the Human Alliance's head of science in the 21st millennium, Roshi clearly understood the difficulty of cutting-edge technological innovation. By then, humanity's technological landscape had become infinitely diverse, and a genius who could make even the smallest contribution to a single branch would be considered a great figure.

And the Necrons gave him the feeling that... they were cheating.

It was only through one's own hard work and the concerted efforts of countless human geniuses, as well as stone men and iron men, that human technology was brought to that level. But when one looked at the answer of the Necrons, it was even more correct than the standard answer.

"In addition to communication and navigation, Pharos can even create a portal to another dimension according to the user's wishes."

Everyone present was silent. The Space Marines' modified brains were clearly aware of how important Pharos, who possessed these abilities, was to the Empire.

Today's humans rely on Astronomican to observe their position and direction in the subspace, and rely on Astropaths to send psychic messages, and then compile and decode them to transmit information.

If we put aside those mysterious means, they are actually no different from the humans who were sailing in the ancient Terra period.

However, humans at that time did not look at the astronomical torch, but relied on their own compasses and the stars in the sky.

"So, what does it take to build Pharos? No matter what the cost, as long as we can build the Pharos Lighthouse that belongs to mankind, everything will be worth it."

The Warsmith said firmly that when he said "at any cost", he meant any human planet except Terra, any Space Marine Legion, and any human being.

Even if we exchange a few Space Marine legions for this kind of technology, it would be an absolute good deal for humanity.

"I admit that I have underestimated the difficulty of building the Pharos, everyone." Roxi has read the general information about the Pharos Lighthouse, and therefore has a new understanding of this magical creation of the Necrons.

His previous belief that he could rely on an intelligent computer to perform brute force calculations to crack the code was not entirely correct.

The key to Pharos, in addition to the scientific theory it contains, is related to two important factors:
Blackstone and Energy.

Roxi pointed to the special materials like obsidian inside the Faros Mountains. They looked ordinary but actually had amazing value.

The skin on my fingertips rubbed against the metallic rock, and a light cool feeling seeped into my brain.

"Black stone, the key to this technology is black stone. It is not a material generated by the natural universe in our conventional concept."

Luo Xi paused and decided on the appropriate adjective.

"The materials that can be produced naturally in our universe include those natural elements marked on the periodic table, as well as those produced by subsequent complex reactions. Some of them are rare, but they do exist."

"Some things that require more extreme environments to be produced, such as degenerate materials formed by extreme celestial bodies such as white dwarfs and neutron stars, have very stringent requirements, but they are still obtainable."

"But Black Stone is different. It is not made of regular natural elements. It cannot be found on the periodic table. In fact, it is something that was created from the beginning by a certain civilization."

The Warsmith nodded and added, "It sounds like some kind of psychic substance? The force that shaped it is not in line with the laws of the real universe we are familiar with."

Black stone is both material and spiritual, its physical properties are very dense, with a density similar to that of metal, and it is an excellent high temperature resistant material.

At the same time, Blackstone has a powerful ability to control the warp. The Necrons describe it as being able to regulate the energy of the ether. If its polarity is adjusted to the anti-warp side, the ether fluctuations in the area where the Blackstone exists will be abnormally stable.

"To be honest, this sounds even more incredible than Pharos. There is a material that can perfectly resist the subspace and can even be used to build the Pharos Lighthouse that lights up the starry sea."

Dantioch immediately sighed, even the Iron Warrior who was well-versed in technology had made a mistake.

The black stones of the Pharos Mountains, those seemingly ordinary things, are the greatest treasures here.
