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

Chapter 266 The Prophet's Good Will
If it weren't for the constant telepathic communication from the Tello Librarian, warning him of the almost explosive psychic power of the Eldar in front of him, Hill would have simply blown his head off with his bolter.

After all, this kind of thing is too bizarre. The two sides are still in a state of war. Hill even just chopped off the head of an Eldar tribe warrior with his electromagnetic sword.

The blood on the sword had not yet dried, and at this time an Eldar came to negotiate. This sounded more like some kind of Eldar conspiracy.

Are they trying to feign surrender? Or stall for time through negotiations? Both are possible.

The Eldar often do some incredible things, their weird logic and way of thinking are difficult for humans to understand. They often take advance measures based on certain prophecies to nip the crisis in the bud.

"Eldar, do you think we will believe your clumsy lies?"

"I am the son of Guilliman. Rationality and calmness are my instincts. Don't try to play with your damn prophecy in front of me."

A cold electronic sound rang out from the microphone on the helmet, and the sensors loaded onto the Space Marines transmitted the scene happening before their eyes back to the forward base at the rear.

After being processed by the intelligent brain, the scenes here turned into new projections and appeared in front of Luo Xi's eyes.

He folded his arms across his chest, wondering whether this was true or not.

"This Eldar seems to be different from those who claim to be from the Alaitok Craftworld. Their intricate patterns have extremely subtle differences."

Roxi knew that the Eldar had an extremely ancient and complex culture, and every rune and mark on their bodies had its own meaning, but most humans would not be interested in these.

"Listen to him continue." Luo Xi ordered remotely.

"Have the anti-psionic teams ready, and have our untouchables deal with him."

"I am not without ill intentions, otherwise I would not come here alone." Uslan stuck his staff into the ground and hung the blue Eldar helmet in his left hand on the staff.

He walked slowly towards a direction where the anti-psychic team was. Ten untouchables were lying in ambush in the bunker. They felt a wave of oppressive feelings, and the soulless stance seemed to be under pressure.

Uslan walked towards the human's trump card against psychics, and as the distance between him and the Untouchable shortened, a trace of pain flashed across the handsome face of the Eldar prophet.

But he still maintained his elegance and composure, speaking to Commander Hill while being enveloped by the soulless field that was enough to kill an ordinary psychic instantly.

"I think this is enough to prove my sincerity. I have good intentions and hope to gain your goodwill. If possible, please meet with me, ruler of mankind."

When he said this, his eyes were actually looking at the camera on Hill, and he was talking to Luo Xi.

"I didn't expect there are such bright and open people among the Eldar. I thought this race was full of riddlers who like to beat around the bush."

Uslan's sincerity moved Luo Xi. He hesitated for a few seconds and spoke into the communicator.

"Bring him over here, Hill, and have the anti-psychic team follow him. I want to have a good chat with this Eldar."

Hill wanted to speak out to dissuade him, but then he changed his mind and suppressed the idea.

He knew Luo Xi's character. Although he would usually listen to correct advice, he would not change his mind once he made up his mind.

He motioned for the Eldar Prophet to follow him, and for the Untouchables of the Anti-Psi Squad to follow him.

Under the dual protection of the Ultramarines Guard and the Anti-Psionic Squad, Uslan successfully entered Roshi's forward base on Pandora.

"This will be a great meeting. You don't know its significance yet, but if you live long enough you will understand that this will be a big event for our universe."

Uslan's incomprehensible words made Hill feel a little confused. It seemed that even the Eldar, who seemed to be relatively normal, liked to speak in some weird riddles.

Luo Xi was sitting in his seat at this moment. He had been waiting for a long time.

The prophet of the Eldar has a very handsome face. Among all the people Roche has seen, only Guilliman and Lion, the two creations of the Emperor of Mankind, can surpass him.

The Primarch possessed a certain inexplicable divinity; this was the evaluation that Roche came to after observation.

Uslan had a faint smile on his face but remained solemn. His face, which was extremely similar to that of a human, made people feel good about him.

Sharokin emerged from the darkness, the C'tan Phase Blade gleaming with a faint green luster in his hand caught Uslando's attention for two seconds. "Eric Nightspear said he suffered a great loss at the hands of a human warrior wielding a C'tan Phase Blade."

"It seems that you have already dealt with those Necrons, respected human." said the Eldar.

"You are different from those Eldar. You seem willing to contact us."

Uslan smiled shyly, shrugged and replied, "Yes, this is the characteristic of our race. The Creator added these things when he created us. Of course, I am different from them. I have no prejudice against any race."

"The reason I want to meet you is to calm the conflict between our two races. There were indeed some unpleasantness before, but that is not important. What is important is what happens in the future."

Uslan's words made Luo Xi raise his eyebrows. He had not expected that these self-proclaimed noble elves would be willing to bow their heads first.

"I admire your courage. Under the protection of ten untouchables, are you still able to use your psychic power?"

Hearing Luo Xi's question, Uslan snapped his fingers, used his psychic power to pinch a green laurel crown in front of everyone, and then sent it in front of Luo Xi.

"The Crown of Aisha, the crown bestowed by the goddess of life in our Eldar mythology. I made a fake imitating that thing. I hope you like it."

Luo Xi was silent for a second, then asked the untouchables to leave.

He realized that the other party's psychic power was strong enough to break through the suppression of the soulless stance, so there was no point in letting these untouchables stay here.

It would be better for both parties to be open and natural and talk things out clearly.

Roxie doesn't like being a riddler.

Uslan nodded, pleased with how this meeting was going.

"I propose a truce. You can take the Black Stone on Pandora. Those things are no longer useful to us. It would be good to give them to you to defend against the threat of the warp."

"Chaos is the common enemy of all life in the universe. Humans and Eldar should not be hostile to each other."

Luo Xi became more and more curious about Uslan. This Eldar who didn't like to tell riddles handed over the black stone with both hands and showed obvious intention to cooperate. This was really rare.

"How much do you know about the Black Stone? Isn't this thing a creation of the Necrons?"

The use of the black stone was taught by Trazyn when he first met him. Roxi was deeply impressed by that alternative collector among the Necrons.

"Necrons? No, no, the Black Stone is not something that belongs to those Necrontyr, and they are not qualified to say such arrogant words that they are the creators of the Black Stone."

Uslan seemed to have heard a joke and showed a somewhat exaggerated smile. The emotions of the elves were always fluctuating violently, so that they always behaved very neurotically.

"The origin of the Black Stone is very complicated. It is difficult for me to sort it out in simple words in a short time."

Before Uslan could finish his explanation, he was interrupted by Luo Xi.

"Then let's make a long story short."

The Eldar was a little embarrassed, but continued with what he had just said.

"The Black Stone was not created by the Necrons. One theory holds that its creator was a being called a Star God in ancient times."

"That was a long time ago, so long ago that even we, the Eldar, can no longer fully record what happened at that time, but I still found some clues."

Uslan seemed to show off his knowledge, and then continued: "Star God Mag Ladros, or the Void Dragon, is the ruler of the material world and the embodiment of all technology and machinery. It is rumored to be the creator of the Black Stone."

"Star God?"

This was not the first time that Luo Xi had heard this name. He first learned this name from the Necron Overlord Trazyn, but the other party was vague about it and seemed unwilling to mention it in too much detail.

"Go on, how much do you Eldar know about the Star God?"
