The Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 169 159. Archaeological Exploration

Erda silently listened to what the little girl in front of her said seriously and began to think. After she thought for a while, she finally answered with a wry smile.

"It would be great if humans could understand this truth, otherwise we wouldn't make the same mistakes over and over again."

"I believe that people will one day understand, whether they are high-ranking high lords or the most ordinary civilians in the empire, one day they will understand this truth."

After Erda heard the little girl's ridiculously naive words, she didn't know what to say. Once upon a time, she and that person had the same idea, but when they tried again and again and failed again and again, they finally came to the conclusion: Human beings will never look for lessons from the past, at least most people will not .

But is it possible that humans might actually learn lessons from the past? Maybe there is such a possibility, but the possibility is almost infinitely zero.

After she pulled her thoughts back from the past tens of thousands of years ago, the girl in front of her had already signed up a large book in front of her. Marcus opened the thick book and kept searching on it, and finally found something. Pointing to a huge black stone pillar above, he asked excitedly

"Have you seen anything like this during your travels? It's this tall black stone pillar."

Erda recognized it at a glance as a black silk creation of the Necrons, but she still thought about it and came up with an explanation that was more in line with the other party's logic. Marcus looked at the lady in front of him and thought hard for dozens of seconds before speaking.

"I have indeed seen this kind of obelisk. I have found it in many places, but the most common place is in Cadia."

After hearing what the other party said, Marcus climbed up the ladder at an incredible speed, then quickly moved the slide rail below to another bookshelf, and quickly found another book. Erda really didn't expect that her small body could actually hold such a big book. Marcus threw the "book" from the top, and then quickly slid down the ladder. Only then did Erda Found out it was a map of the Milky Way.

Erda looked at the sheepskin map that was slowly rolled out, covering an area of ​​at least several hundred square meters. The pattern of the Milky Way emerges on it, and every planet on the map is clearly marked. Among them, some planets even look like they were drawn by hand, and some have special markings on them.

Marcus wiped the sweat from his forehead and pointed to the marks on the map above.

"This map is actually quite old, so there are some newly discovered planets that I drew on it myself. After getting so much information, and what you just said, I have a very bold guess, and of course it is possible. Some of them feel ridiculous, do you want to hear them?”

Erda nodded after hearing this, and Marcus quickly said after getting the other party's affirmation.

"We all know that the Eye of Terror is located in the Obscure Star Territory and is constantly expanding every moment. But among them, only the world of Cadia is like a solid rock that firmly resists this terrible subspace vortex. Expansion. Because there are a large number of obelisks on it, and according to my investigation, every planet with obelisks can effectively avoid the influence of subspace energy. This is the case in Cartier, and the same is true in Nocturne, and in Or. Pussy is like that too.

In the chaotic Storm Sector, only Orpheus is like an anchor firmly inserted into the torrent of subspace. So let’s take a bold guess, does this kind of obelisk have the function of isolating subspace? Or even that kind of material that has the function of blocking subspace?

Of course, without more information and common sense, this is all nonsense. But I know where to get samples! Underground in Orps, there are some ruins of ancient civilizations. These things left by these civilizations can help us conduct new research! "

After hearing this, Erda explored for a moment, considering the success rate and harvest rate of this operation. If you want to enter the so-called underground ruins, there is no doubt that it is at least the tomb of the Necron, or at least something related to those guys. The risk is relatively high if you go in.

But it doesn't matter, because no matter how big the risk is, unless it's a Star God fragment, having more troops is not a big problem for her. What she wants is this girl, because the spirit this girl possesses is what humans lack in this era. People who remember suffering and history. Such scholars who love history are really hard to find in the empire!

Such a scholar is destined to be buried in the vast crowd, and may even be treated as a heretic by the real judge. This is something Erda cannot accept. Since the other party does not want such a person, then she wants it!

"Yes, child, but you need your father's consent. After all, he is the master of this hive."

After Marcus heard this, her eyes immediately shone with hope. She hurriedly ran out, while not forgetting to say to Erda behind her.

"Just let me get ready. I'll be ready soon!"

While Marcus was packing his things, Erda came back to the governor's office unhurriedly and told him that she wanted to take away the governor's daughter.

The Governor almost jumped up from his seat after hearing this. His precious daughter was the only thing that a selfish person like him cared about. It was not because he was so devoted, but because of this accident when he was young that he only had such a child forever, so the Governor could only pour everything into this child, hoping that this child could inherit the glory of the family.

But when the Inquisitor slowly explained the reason, he began to accept it. Erda did not hide anything and directly stated that he had to ensure that the Governor would cooperate during the Inquisitor's investigation, so he had to detain her daughter as a guarantee. At the same time, he also asked the Governor not to worry, after all, she was just taking the little girl down to take a look and collect some information about the aliens.

After listening to what the person in front of him said, Ben slowly calmed down. He knew very well how much the other person said. Although he also thought about the possibility of the woman's identity after the other person left, after all, he did not appear in front of him with stormtroopers.

But the gold coin and the well-made court documents all proved that this was an inquisitor, and these most mysterious people in the empire had very strange personalities. No one could see them with a normal eye, and no one knew what these guys were thinking.

In the end, Ben comforted himself that there would be no problem, and agreed to the other party's request.

Soon, Marcus and Erda, who were full of hope, left here together with a group of PDF and legal soldiers. When leaving, the girl took a last look at her smiling father.

At that time, she never thought that everything that happened today would change her life forever, and even the history of the galaxy...
