"Haven't found any clues yet?"

"Unfortunately, my lord, no."

"HMMM.."

In the deep Necron Tomb, Szarekh sat on the metal Throne that represented his identity and let out a deep groan.

Below, a bowed Lychguard responded to Szarekh's inquiry.

As Silent King, Szarekh's mood has been shrouded in endless haze recently, with restlessness and restlessness accompanying her.

Although the fight between him and Stormlord Imotekh has been temporarily put on hold, it does not mean that the matter is over.

The previous attacks had caused great damage to both sides.

There is one missing bit in the reconstructed Triarch Council.

Hand of Shadows Mephistopheles followed those fleets and disappeared into the turbulence of time.

What's worse is that they haven't found the true identity of the attacker so far.

This made Szarekh full of anger but had nowhere to vent, and felt extremely aggrieved.

But now, the situation is becoming complicated.

Szarekh I don't know how the mastermind behind the scenes did it.

Many Necron Dynasty who have not yet awakened from their long slumber have been invaded by some kind of secret.

These uninvited guests acted recklessly and roughly disturbed those Necrons who were still sleeping, as peaceful as death.

This isn't the first time this confusion has occurred.

Galaxy is a dangerous place, and even the best technicians cannot fully control it.

Unexpected error awakenings happen from time to time, sometimes just one Sarcophagus fails, and sometimes it affects the entire phalanx of soldiers in the tomb.

This kind of accident happened completely randomly, with no rules at all, ranging from the lowest-level samurai to the Rytak Dynasty's Phaeron Osuaria--after she recovered, she found that she was the only one among Silence Tomb World who woke up.

Fortunately, this unexpected awakening did not turn Phaeron into a lunatic.

Without the strict class structure to maintain order, these unexpectedly awakened Necronss fell into chaos.

Some reckless nobles awakened entire legions on their own without the help of technicians, damaging their neural pathways and turning their minions into mindless robots.

Some people took the opportunity to settle old scores and killed their mortal enemies while they were still in Sarcophagus Suspended Animation.

Finally, those Triarch Praetorianss who lived in solitary circles but kept watch over the stagnant tombs came up with a solution. They requested the formation of a parliament and sent Phileas, one of the triangle Archons, as the executioner of the parliament.

Of course Trazyn suspects that she is more of a monitor than an executioner.

Revivification Council became a small provisional government of Necrons. They were responsible for protecting sleeping compatriots from tragic deaths, and set strict limits on the number and type of artificial awakening Necrons. Because premature awakening often leads to damage, no Necrons may be forcibly awakened unless there is an emergency.

After Silent King Szarekh returned, Revivification Council was disbanded.

The reorganized Triarch Council also took over all functions and authorities of Revivification Council.

This is also the reason why Szarekh can always visit a Dynasty soon after it recovers and ask the other party to take sides.

The Crypteks who arrived at the scene carefully analyzed the remaining energy fluctuations, as well as the fragmented and devastated wreckage.

But the results are puzzling.

Some wreckage has obvious Antimatter damage and traces of Gaussian cracking.

The traces on some Necrons wreckage are filled with the shadow of Phase Weapon.

At first, relying on their past experiences, the members instinctively thought that there were some abnormal awakenings among these Dynasty.

After they woke up, they started a civil war because they lost their minds or because they were fighting for power.

In this bloody and cruel civil war, other compatriots who failed to recover in time could only be massacred in their sleep and died unjustly.

In the end, the entire Dynasty fell into a state of irreversible destruction under the ruthless baptism of war, and turned into the heart-wrenching ruins it is today.

However, after they discovered that four small Dynastys were destroyed in this way.

The 'supervisors' sent out by Parliament also discovered problems.

It is not uncommon for one or two little Dynastys to be completely destroyed. After all, Necronss know their own social style very well.

But it is too strange that four Dynastys were destroyed in a row to the point where not even a single intact building could be found.

And even if there is a civil war, there should be a winner who will emerge and inherit the legacy of the Dynasty.

It is understandable that some Dynasty weapons are more powerful and can cause total annihilation, but it cannot be the case for every Dynasty.

This strange situation alerted them.

Upon closer inspection, they discovered something even worse.

These Dynasty sleeping Pocket Dimension were not activated and opened normally before their visit.

Instead, a hole was made in the space.

The gaps in space are very regular.

It seemed as if it had been easily cut open by some sharp blade.

This forced them to report the situation to Triarch Council.

Green Holographic Projection flashed in front of Szarekh, and the damage of Pocket Dimension was arranged together.

These space incisions are exactly the same, and they are obviously made by the same group of people.

Szarekh murmured to himself.

"The Pocket Dimension that can tear apart Dynasty Suspended Animation so easily must have extremely advanced and weird technology and know our defense mechanism well."

He couldn't help but think of his experience of fighting against various forces. Over the long years, Silent King had encountered countless enemies, but there was no one that could do so quietly and with such astonishing destructive power.

And Cryptek's report is also very strange.

Antimatter technology, Gauss technology, and phase technology are almost all things that Necrons is good at.

Milky Way There are few forces within the scope that accurately master these dangerous technologies.

Within Necrons society, the intrigues between various Dynastys never stop.

In order to survive in this cruel universe, some small Dynastys often seek refuge from powerful Dynastys, while others try to strengthen themselves by annexing other Dynastys through conspiracy and conspiracy.

But this incident obviously went beyond the scope of internal disputes, but there was one thing that made Szarekh confused.

"If it was really a civil war, how could there be no winner? How could there not be even a little Dynasty legacy preserved?"

He knew in his heart how greedy those short-sighted guys were. When attacking a hostile Dynasty, he would not choose to surrender but choose to destroy him. This was not Necrons's style at all.

Countless questions swirled in Szarekh's mind, making him increasingly irritable.

Just when Szarekh kept thinking about which idiot was going crazy.

Iax is counting batch after batch of Necrons bodies.
