The Emperor’s Angel of Death
#2548 - Holy Crown of Bones
After gathering information from all sources, even the seers had to admit that in this situation, the only thing the world spirit could do was to implant the already cooled eternal circuit into the ark world. A single planet was too much, but an ark world could handle it. At the same time, some unnecessary structures of the ark world would be cut off and reduced in size overall, which would basically solve the problem.
It was not easy to persuade the survivors of Haranshel to accept that the world spirit their loved ones had protected with their lives would become a weapon. In order not to damage Veronica's sacredness, Sojayan had to personally come forward and have heart-to-heart talks with the representatives of the Haranshel community, explaining the stakes.
Of course, he could also choose to use his power to pressure them, after all, the royal court had clearly defined his and Veronica's absolute rule, but this was not a good choice, and the survivors of Haranshel did have their rights.
Having power is one thing, using it is another.
Sojayan deeply understood that the abuse of power would only become cheap and despised.
In fact, he didn't use any flowery words, but very sincerely told them that the state of the world spirit could no longer support it to continue its original duties, and the royal court did not have the power and technology to reshape the world spirit. The best way to deal with it now was to let the remains of Maran-Tai become its new body. Sojayan promised that Maran-Tai and Haranshel would not only be reborn as a powerful fortress, but also become the Eternal Queen's war palace. At the same time, he would also form a new guard force for it, which would give priority to recruiting the survivors of Haranshel. This force would use the symbol of the former Haranshel kingdom, which would also be a commemoration of this once glorious kingdom.
Even in naming, Sojayan took care of the other party's feelings, promising that the reborn war palace would be named Maranshel.
The Aeldari are a race that attaches great importance to emotions, especially the wilder Craftworld Aeldari. Sojayan was willing to lower his status and give so many comforting conditions, and the survivors of Haranshel had nothing to say, and immediately agreed to the plan.
Then the following things were relatively simple. First, the Bonesingers cut some blocks from the Maran-Tai ark, some of which were used as orbital facilities in Essro to receive envoys from non-Aeldari races, and some were transported to the surface of the planet as defense outposts for the royal court in the Linnae Kingdom webway. The remaining main part was 'dragged' back to the orbit of the royal court by the webway traction ability of the Doomwings.
Then came the construction project of Maranshel. There were different opinions on what shape it should have. Navy Star Marshal Giulio Pula believed that it was best to maintain the shape of a traditional warship, while Callas Tu wanted to reshape it into a very classical hemispherical Aeldari space palace. Veronica wanted it to have the elegant and beautiful appearance of a Doomwing.
And Sojayan, he directly took out such a thing-
"This is-"
In the courtyard surrounded by countless fountains, flowers and gurgling streams, Veronica looked at the virtual image slowly rotating in the air, and let out a surprised sigh. At this time, she was wearing a gorgeous white palace dress, with delicate gems and foliate patterns on the wide sleeves, and three thousand strands of black hair were made into a simple bun behind her head, with the rest hanging down her neck, and several hairpins carved into butterflies were inserted on her head.
The image in the air was a cone shape that was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, like a statue of a god with only the torso and head. The top was a huge halo, which looked extremely mysterious under the refraction of the warm sunlight and the fine psychic crystals shining in the courtyard.
Sojayan, wearing a white and gold Aeldari-style robe, put his hands behind his back and turned his head with a smile, and said to Veronica:
"Remember? The ruins we found underground in Armageddon, which was also the old site of the Aleksey family. I retrieved some ancient human technology from there. This is probably the most complex, most powerful, and most terrifying of them. It's called the Saint Coronatus. After I asked Mu Hu to specifically analyze its data, I let Bangura study it for a while. As a result, Bangura told me that it was completely impossible to manufacture this thing with the existing human mechanical technology and materials science. There are tens of trillions of micro-components inside with incredible precision, and it also requires a very high-level artificial intelligence. Then I thought, if human craftsmanship is not good, then what about using Aeldari wraithbone?"
Veronica nodded as if waking up from a dream.
"So it was obtained from there. That's quite memorable."
Sojayan looked at Callas Tu on the other side. The other party was observing the human data board brought by Sojayan in a very mysterious state—not with his eyes, but by directly inserting his wraithbone fingernails into the data board interface, just like a priest of the Adeptus Mechanicus.
After a while, the Bonesinger Master retracted his fingernails, raised his eyebrows slightly, with a contemptuous but interested expression on his face.
"Your Highness, I have seen countless kinds of human machines, whether from their glorious era or their barbaric era. Although most of them can only be said to be crude metal garbage simply piled up, I have to admit that sometimes sparks of genius will occasionally burst out in their short lives, such as this method of non-psychic interference with biological brains. Although it is not so delicate, it can play an incredible role in special occasions."
"I think it is possible to shape Maranshel into this form. It is not necessary to completely imitate its original technology. After all, wraithbone and human technology are completely two routes. I just don't want it to be wasted, so I simply took it to try. It would be good if it can play a little role."
Veronica also agreed with Sojayan's opinion.
"Its shape is very elegant and unique. I think it's okay."
On the other side, Giulio Pula, wearing ancient Aeldari general scale armor, looked at this thing, with his left hand on his chest and his right hand stroking his chin. After a while, he also nodded.
"If its function can be realized, it will be a very powerful weapon, especially against the Tyranid, which relies on collective consciousness and Gestalt to command. Perhaps it can interfere with their mental connection."
Giulio Pula's words were agreed by Jain Zar, who was sitting in a chair behind him.
"After multiple evolutions and absorption of a large number of our genes, the Tyranids have a very high resistance to psychic attacks. This physical means of attacking the mind may be able to achieve unexpected results."
After that, others also expressed their opinions and agreed to shape Maranshel into the Saint Coronatus. Sojayan looked at Callas Tu.
"Master Callas, is there any difficulty?"
The great artificer put his hands on his chest and pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"Your Highness, there is no problem, but it will take some time. The main thing is that Haranshel must first adapt to the eternal circuit before it can use its power to start transforming and reshaping the wraithbone main structure."
