  Chapter 115 104. A first look
  at Planet Sigma 373, now.

  Outside the shuttle, the towering trees stood quietly in place. The dim sunlight of this galaxy shone down, and the lush leaves cast patches of shadow in the forest.

  The bright red figure of the Skitarii shuttled through the green forest, and the arc rifle was gradually submerged in the green sea as the Skitarii walked.

  Inside the shuttle, the electric sound representing pleasure crackled.

  "Ah! Praise the Ohm Messiah!"

  Hades looked helplessly as he watched the Kirkland Sage walking around. His robes and black stone pendants swayed as the Sage walked, and the electricity hissed like a mechanical prayer. Words flowed from Kirkland Sage's articulator.

  Jin, who called Hades over, shrank his head and timidly hid behind Hades to prevent Sage Kirkland from noticing him.

  King, of course, didn't take kindly to a crazy former owner.

  When Kirkland Sage finally finished saying strange words such as "Ohm Messiah, help me" and "God of All Machines, I will give you a kowtow", the Sage finally calmed down, and the cooling system increased the power and began to operate, and Kirkland looked at Hades again.

  "It's unbelievable. According to the preliminary survey of the drone swarm, opposite the forest, in the center of the largest human city on the planet, there once existed a very strong anti-psionic field." Hades quickly grasped the key

  . " Wait
  , once?"

  The indicator light on the sage's face lit up, and then he further explained to Hades,
  "Yes, we have not observed an anti-psionic field now." "

  There is a high probability that he once lived here. Human beings destroyed that device."

  The sage muttered dissatisfiedly, and the electronic sound became more and more harsh.

  But this is enough. Before this, Kirkland Sage had never truly found a device that could stably generate a strong counter-psionic field.

  Compared to the excited Mechanical Sage, Hades was lost in thought.

  The black stone obelisk built in the center of the human city is strange no matter what you think.

  "Sage, can you let me see the image transmitted by the drone?"

  "Please."

  Hades instantly received the data packet from Sage Kirkland. After entering the key, Hades began to check the picture.

  Houses resembling medieval architecture appear in the picture, the streets are dusty, and some buildings have collapsed due to time.

  There is a huge square in the center of the city. The floor is paved with black stones and outlined with bright green lines, but it is dimmed by dust at the moment.

  In the middle, the black obelisk a few people wide stood indifferently, overlooking all living beings.

  However, the original straight lines of the obelisk were destroyed, and some pits broke the smooth flow, revealing the layout inside.

  Other arc-shaped dark black walls surround the obelisk, which are engraved with prayers and complicated patterns.

  Directly in front of the square is a one-person high podium similar to a bulletin board.

  No. Something is wrong.

  Hades frowned unconsciously.

  Even though the style and building materials are similar, they don't go together.

  What exactly is going on?

  Hades was thinking about the middlemost obelisk. The picture from the drone was still too blurry, which prevented Hades from sinking his thoughts further.
  "I have to go to the scene to see."

  Hades Finally said.

  In the dense but silent forest, a group of people is moving.

  Hades was in the middle of the team, wearing mk3 modified power armor, low-key bone white and moss green intertwined. On the thick shoulder armor, one side was a six-spurred skull representing the Fourteenth Legion, and the other side was a symbol of the Martian Mechanicus. gear ring skull.

  Hades modified the mk3 power armor to make its defensive performance even better. Although the price was heavier armor, for Hades, this weight is still a piece of cake.

  Technical Sergeant's most iconic power backpack is behind him. A skull protrudes from Hades' left shoulder armor, with red and black cables intertwined. This is an omniscient scanner.

  The slender spray gun is folded on the right side of the backpack, and the service arm is folded quietly on Hades' back. Inside, there are a phlogiston welding torch, a plasma cutter, and a deflagration blasting gun.

  Hades was holding a bolter and following behind a Skitarii vanguard.

  The branches were cut down and broken by the Skitarii, and the grass was crushed. They were walking on the forest path previously opened by the Skitarii.

  "We're almost at the first mark, my lord."

  The Skitarii in front of Hades said,
  "Yes."

  Hades responded hastily, grabbing Jin who was lagging behind him, and continued to move forward. .

  "I hate this muddy ground,"

  Kim complained, making his gears miserable.

  Hades smiled, and he looked up. As far as he could see, a towering bell tower protruded between the trees, and artificially carved vines were wrapped around the outer wall of the bell tower.

  They walked for a while.

  The trees gradually became sparse, the sunlight became abundant, and off-white buildings appeared in front of us. In the open space was a sizable village, where several skitarii were stationed and continued exploration.

  "Lord Hades, after our preliminary judgment, this should be a village for agricultural production and education." The

  Skitarii Captain in front of him was dutifully telling Hades about the results of their previous explorations. .

  "Currently, Team 785 of the Skitarii has not found anything related to the black stone device you are interested in here." "The

  previous sages have obtained some technologies related to agricultural machinery here. Other than that, there is a high probability that there is no other technology here. Useful technology."

  Hades blinked. Agriculture and education were integrated. He had never seen it before, which made him a little interested.

  It happened that the exploration team was going to take a rest here, so Hades took advantage of the rest to wander around.

  King went to dry the moisture in his cables, but Kirkland Sage was not in the party this time. The cautious Sage would never leave without sorting out all his life-saving devices.

  The Skitarii were always in Hades' sight, so Hades strolled around quite relieved.

  Low white bungalows form the main body of this village, and most of these houses are used for accommodation.

  It looks like an ordinary large rural area.

  However, things changed when Hades walked to the other end of the village.

  A rustling sound sounded.

  Hades raised his gun and leaned forward -

  some small mobile machines were busy shuttling between the bungalows, and most of them were fruits and the like?

  Those strange-looking cars carrying food emerged from the forest and left tirelessly in the other direction.

  The skitarii sent over earlier turned a blind eye to this and continued their search.

  "What is this?"

  Hades looked at the small convoy of food in front of him and was extremely confused.
