Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 509: The Battle of Blackstone: Two Extremes of Struggle (2)

Orcs are a race born entirely for war.

When they were first created, they were war tools deliberately prepared and created by the Ancient Saints in order to deal with the huge ground forces of the Necrontyr.

The terrifying reproductive ability and the "technology tree" carved into their souls allow them to realize their war potential in the harshest combat environments.

The elite units that are born spontaneously with the population size, and the division of labor among elite communities that arise spontaneously, allow them to naturally achieve the promotion of the overall civilization without any accumulation of civilization after reaching a certain number.

But success and failure are one and the same, and their strength is destined to be the cause of their decline.

As a race that has been labeled a "consumable" since its creation, the nature of their soul has never been related to true creativity, and it is even less possible for them to occupy a real command position in the alliance.

And this is something they have always known, but are unwilling to admit.

The orcs that developed into the Empire period have, to a certain extent, realized their full war potential.

And the rulers of the empire, who clearly understand their own weaknesses, cherish the very few members of their ethnic group who have true "reason" and civilization.

In their eyes, the low-level orcs are just numbers that can be consumed at will, but those high-level orcs who have truly opened up their wisdom after being baptized by the "will of the group" are what every orc clan (legion) commander does not want to be. The precious seed of sacrifice.

But so what?

In the alliance led by the Creator, the Eldar's status as the eldest son is unshakable.

Due to their own position and functions, the orcs are even less likely to refuse the war edict from the Eldar.

The fleet in front of us is a typical case:

Even though he is the leader of a clan, in this tactical operation where he knew he was being sacrificed, the orc commander could only watch the best part of his blood being sacrificed, but he still could not refuse an Eldar royal court. Messenger's order.

Angry fire flashed in the tall commander's eyes, but eventually turned into blood and settled in his eyes silently.

Calvin clearly saw how this giant who was more than ten meters tall suppressed his emotions, and he also clearly understood that no hatred was born from nothingness.

But is such forbearance really useful?

In other words, they are both intelligent races, since the orcs can show a forbearing attitude in front of the pressure of the Creator and the powerful power of the Eldar;

As an Eldar with greater wisdom and strength, do they really know nothing about the endurance of the orcs?

No, of course not.

Because the reason why civilization is civilization is that the accumulation of time makes "nothing new happen under the sun of civilization."

Calvin could clearly see that when the orc commander finally chose to endure under the explanation of the Eldar representative.

The same subtle irony and contemptuous sympathy appeared in the eyes of the Eldar representatives and members of other races present.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Even though they are all races created by the same Creator, these advanced civilizations that were tens of thousands of years earlier than the human empire were still based on their own interests and calculations. In this war that has not been recorded in history, they fought for the young Calvin. Showing a "look of all living beings"...

The war in the starry sky is still burning, and the foreshadowing of the Eldar hidden outside the galaxy has finally appeared.

The psykers, represented by many Eldar priests, finally summoned their incarnations of gods under the amplification of the Ark's huge psychic circuit.

And in response to the call of the Eldar, the Eldar gods once again projected their power into the real world. They also lowered their own power in the incomparable glory.

In the vast and boundless void, the power of subspace surged against the trend again like a tide;

The infinite power of faith in the Supreme Heaven tore apart the curtain of reality, and while creating numerous "tiny" stars, it also summoned the gifts prepared by the Eldar for the Necrontyr from the subspace!

Black stone! More Blackstone Fortresses!

And behind these huge black stone fortresses, which are comparable to small celestial bodies, are the Eldar gods who project their power into the real universe in the form of giants of light and shadow!

Cold and sacred light appeared in the void, and the shadow of the Pantheon, the foundation of the Eldar's faith, took shape in the prayers of hundreds of millions of Eldar.

The members of the Eldar pantheon are centered around their leader, Asuryan, the Chief of the Gods, and are arranged on both sides according to their respective functions.

The spinning black stone fortress is being held up by the phantoms of these gods with both hands and pushed uniformly to the center of the galaxy battlefield!

A more grand war begins, and this time the bargaining chip both sides compete for is the attributes of this space!

Two different civilizations, based on the same understanding of the mysterious material black stone, used different technologies to create products of the same specifications and shapes.

Compared with those "four-pointed stars" that choose to catalyze the power of expulsion to the extreme in the duality of black stone, these black stone fortresses whose upper and lower floors are deliberately separated into eight-pointed stars are about to attack Asia at the moment they appear. The amplification power of space is fully demonstrated!

"Eight-pointed star..."

Calvin looked at the shapes of the black stone fortresses that appeared later, and had ten thousand alpacas roaring past in his heart.

He really wanted to question the spirit tribe and the gods behind them at this time:

When you use the power of subspace so unscrupulously, do you really understand the meaning of this eight-pointed star...

The power in the starry sky is condensing, but Calvin's thoughts extend infinitely in a place isolated by time.

On the battlefield inside and outside the galaxy, two batches of the same black stone fortress are fighting in the void with two completely opposite forces, using the orbit of the largest planet near the star as the dividing line.

Both the Eldar and the Necrontyr are frantically catalyzing the Blackstone Fortress in each other's hands to compete for the strategic conditions in this space that truly determine victory or defeat.

Yes, although the application of black stone by the two races is completely opposite, the special properties of black stone determine that no matter which direction of characteristics is required, it requires extremely huge power to catalyze it.

As is the power of the Eldar from the Warp, so is the power of the Necrontyr from the C'tan.

Based on their respective characteristics, the two civilizations are using their most powerful energy technology to make terrifying use of the Blackstone Fortress in their hands.

As the Eldar, who had obtained the Black Stone earlier and were well prepared for the Necrontyr's plan, they had obviously made more preparations for this war, thus gaining an absolute upper hand in the ensuing environmental battles.

But there are always surprises, especially when Calvin, as a bystander, saw those "eight-pointed stars" and his thoughts unconsciously extended and finally touched on the concepts hidden behind fate.

Slaanesh, Nurgle, Khorne, Tzeentch...

One by one, the existence of the Chaos Gods has not yet been born, but has already cast the shadow of conspiracy over the entire subspace, and finally extended its tentacles to the real universe.

Finally, under the influence of Calvin, a divine soul, he was noticed by the Eldar gods who were investing their power in the real universe.

What a terrifying scene this is, and what a desperate scene it is.

Outside the void, the light and shadow that had been controlling the Blackstone Fortress, for the first time followed the instinct from the depths of the soul and noticed the existence of Calvin outside of time.

And even though this light and shadow was just an incarnation of the God of War Kane, he, who was highly connected to his true form, immediately noticed the traces of Calvin, and smelled the scent of himself and the entire race from Calvin's vague golden soul. A sign of the end!
