Veronica slowly walked down the stairs, wearing the blue-black prophet robe that she had not worn for a long time. Although she still maintained her human appearance, she could not hide her arrogant temperament from the spirit race.
After glancing at the two of them, she raised her hand slightly.
"Get up."
Then, she walked gently past the two people who stood up.
"How is the situation now?"
"We arrived here as traders two months ago and have basically figured out the situation in Quintanilla. It has three power generation centers and a hidden power center about two hundred meters underground. The hidden power center The power center is mainly responsible for the functions of the city's void shield and the Temple of the Great Sage. They all use independent lines to prevent the void shield spire from being damaged when other power centers in the city are damaged."
"Have those transmission beacons been deployed?"
"It has been deployed. We bribed some Tech-Priests and made them think it was just some contraband."
At this time, Veronica had already reached the second floor of the villa. Looking at the chaotic scene outside, she turned around.
"Go over now."
"Yes, I have prepared a secret route here, but the place is heavily guarded and the time we have been here is too short, not yet."
"Go first, I have a solution."
Sorge led Veronica to the garage, and then took the high-end silver sports car with Thorns and Veronica into an underground passage, speeding all the way as fast as possible, then turned left and right, and entered a rarely seen road. A well-known escape route. Entered the underground.
As a mechanical city, Quintanilla is almost a flat cone in outline, which also means that almost half of it is buried underground.
In these underground worlds, huge exhaust fans and power rails extend to the limits of the contained areas, the spiers of data palaces and exhaust chimneys penetrate the rocky ceilings upwards, and the thunder of forging hammers echoes from wall to wall, The crackle of static that danced from spire to spire mixed together to create a low roar that continued in the darkness.
After driving on the underground expressway for about twenty minutes, Veronica opened her eyes with her eyes closed in the back seat to sense the surrounding environment. She could already feel the energy of the surging plasma furnace.
The car also stopped after more than ten seconds. Sorge turned his head from the driver's seat and whispered:
"Mrs. Veronica, here we are."
After everyone got off the car, they found that it was a place that looked like an abandoned workshop. When they walked out, there was a messy square filled with scrapped vehicles. There were several forked roads along the way. Sorge led the two of them to the left and right. After walking a few hundred meters, they turned to a maintenance channel. After walking for another five minutes, they opened a heavy gate and arrived at a huge space. Not far away was a castle-like power center. The location they were in was a cargo terminal with some large transport vehicles parked. Occasionally, servitors could be seen walking in the middle, wiping these transport vehicles with dirty rags.
Veronica then closed her eyes, an alien symbol lit up between her eyebrows, and at the same time, her whole body changed back to the appearance of the Eldar.
Seeing this, Sorge raised his eyebrows, and the thorn beside him immediately glanced at him and raised his finger in front of his mouth.
At this time, in the control room of the power generation center, several technical priests were bored and performing tasks they had repeated tens of thousands of times. But suddenly they seemed to be hypnotized, stopped what they were doing, and then walked to the meditator array. Next to him, he turned off all monitoring equipment and alarm equipment, then lay down on the ground at the same time and fell asleep.
Veronica opened her eyes, turned her head to look at Sorge, and smiled.
"I am an Eldar, which surprises you. Your superior did not tell you this. You are also curious about my true identity."
Sorge was shocked. He realized that the other party was not observing his words and expressions, but could read his thoughts.
He immediately lowered his head.
"Feel sorry."
"It's okay. Curiosity is normal. He is indeed a master-level agent. He is just curious to this extent. Let's go."
With that said, Veronica walked straight out of the shadows. Sorge was stunned for a moment and was about to stop her when his sleeve was pulled by a thorn.
"Don't be too fussy, just follow madam."
The three of them walked out of the hiding place and came to the light where the guards could see them.
At that moment, Sorge felt hundreds of scanning rays flashing across his body. Due to the importance of this place, a large number of guards, combat robots and automatic turrets were deployed at the entrance. All it took was a signal, and the firepower they emitted It can dismantle a Leman Russ.
Then none of this happened. After turning their heads briefly, the skitarii in reddish-brown robes returned to their original posture of standing guard, as if these three people had never appeared.
Sorge seemed even more surprised because he did not see any further actions by Veronica. All this seemed to be completed in her mind, and when she used psychic powers, the abnormalities and human psychics There is also a big difference.
He was actually very familiar with psykers, and the release of psychic powers often resulted in literal cold - usually frost, sudden drops in room temperature, and unnatural chills that could be mental, or mental and physical. All bodies have it.
In most cases, this temperature change is an unavoidable side effect of the release of psychic energy, rather than the purpose of the releaser's own psychic spells, and therefore can be used as a characteristic to track psychic activity. Generally speaking, the greater the scale of psychic activity, the greater the size of the psychic activity. The effects of supernatural cooling are also wider and more unnatural. A single psyker's spellcasting may only cause chills and frost on the caster's clothing, while a ritual performed by multiple psykers can cause the temperature of the entire environment to plummet. The objects were covered with hoarfrost, and a huge psychic ritual was enough to shroud the entire area within the scope of consciousness in supernatural chills and strange meteorological conditions, such as the unknown strong wind and the stone walls of the corridor for no reason. The temperature dropped to extremely cold.
But there was no such situation around Veronica. Not only was there no cold, he even felt the warm wind blowing from around her, which actually contained the refreshing fragrance of plants.
As a semi-psychic creature, Sorge even noticed some looming light cyan fluorescence similar to fireflies floating in the air when Veronica Shiran walked up the spacious alloy stairs, and the Alpha Guardian in charge of the entrance The teaching army turned around and made a mechanical sound.
"welcome--"
Then a gate large enough for a truck opened.
Behind the door was a hall, cluttered with lines cascading from panels and pipes, hundreds of devices vibrating, buzzing, sparks flying, screens flickering, and countless scriptures scrolling by.
Countless servitors and tech-priests are busy here, but they all turn a blind eye to the sudden intruder.
