The Necrons and the Necrontyr
In this normal timeline of fate, the Silent King returns in 744. m41, but he has never made a public appearance.
Since his return, he has been secretly traveling to various Tomb Worlds, mainly to awaken and gather his old followers to fight against the Tyranids.
955. m41 was the time when he officially appeared in space.
The Silent King's plan was progressing smoothly, but at this moment he suddenly discovered that an overlapping piece of information had been revealed.
Judging from the information channels that have been exposed, they all represent the Tomb Worlds that we have never awakened.
This made the Silent King feel that something was amiss.
Although according to the hibernation program, most Tomb Worlds should awaken during this period, the frequency he detected should not be among them.
Besides that, what bothered him most was the overlap in that message.
He had to check out the identical message that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Of course, his trip was only to gather information, and to ensure the authenticity and validity of the information, the Silent King did not bring many people with him.
Or rather, from the moment the master control protocol was destroyed, the power that the Silent King himself could command was extremely limited.
In the past, he could have directly mobilized the entire Necrons Imperium by relying on the central control agreement.
But in this day and age, he can only rely on his leadership skills and personal charisma to unite and rally the Necrons.
Meanwhile, in the recruiting world of the Lamenters, after more than a month of preparation, the first batch of 10,000 Necrontyr have been Resurrection.
However, for safety's sake, these Necrontyr had already gained souls and Resurrection, did not show themselves immediately.
They remained in their original Dimensional Space, and the entire Father of the Evernight was controlled by their Living Metal bodies.
"Sir, why won't you let us out?"
"Krete, the Warp is much more active in this era, and the influence of Warp Gods is immeasurable."
"Ten thousand people is neither a large nor a small number, and in your original destiny, you should have been the living dead, but now you have gained souls and have been resurrected."
"If you rashly appear in the Realspace, you may attract the attention of the Warp. Even if you equip yourself with Blackstone Technology, you must be extremely careful."
"But sir, we can't just sit around doing nothing now that we 'Resurrection. You're short-handed right now."
"Here's what we'll do. You all form a team of 50 people. Until you figure out the situation, all 50 of you will follow me."
"No problem."
Soon, Krete selected the 50 most elite individuals from among them.
"You guys are being a bit too cautious."
For no other reason than that every single one of these 50 people is Necron Phaerons.
"Sir, so far, among these 10,000 Necrontyr, the Necron Phaerons possesses the highest combat power."
Han Mingxuan nodded; Krete was indeed right.
When he first arrived here, he originally intended to release the Living Metal body belonging to the Silent King from his Blackstone ring.
But it's impossible.
Since the timeline channels on both sides are still unstable, only one Silent King can exist in the same spacetime at present.
"Alright, then this Gloriana-class Battleship is now yours."
"Of course, please feel free to deploy us if needed."
"Haha, you are my most steadfast allies, I won't hold back."
"However, the others can't just sit idly by either. I have Gene-seed from other Legions here; figure out a way to enhance them."
"Don't worry, leave it to me, sir."
As Phaeron specializing in science and technology, Krete himself also had his own unique insights into the research of genetic engineering.
Under the current limited conditions, it is not a problem to enable the recipients of these Gene-seed to acquire the combat power of ordinary soldiers of the Eighth Legion 30K era.
Han Mingxuan is much more at ease now.
When I first arrived, I didn't have many trustworthy people around me.
Things are different now. Just those ten thousand Resurrection Necrontyr are enough for him to do a lot.
But it was during this Resurrection of the Necrontyr that Han Mingxuan discovered something that made him somewhat uncomfortable.
The process of exploring my own soul has stalled.
It didn't grow slowly; it stopped altogether.
According to the original Will of Earth, one's soul would only be extracted when one alters the timeline.
With the original salary of 30K, I had basically done everything I could.
The Resurrection Necrontyr have also found their place in the universe, but even if all of Necrontyr were Resurrection, the progress of their discovery would be minimal.
In other words, he must change some important events to the greatest extent possible within a 40K timeline.
Only in this way can the remaining souls be dug out.
Of course, he didn't have much of his soul left either, less than half, at most 40%.
After settling the Necrontyr, Han Mingxuan returned to the Planet's surface.
He wasn't in a hurry to go anywhere else, because he wanted to wait for the Necrontyr to enhance the Gene-seed.
After the enhancement, he did not intend to use it on the 9th Legion immediately.
Once the Gene-seed enhancement is complete, Han Mingxuan will need to recruit a group of people himself.
The Gene-seed of the Eighth Legion were directly implanted.
Because loyalist Chapters are required to pay Gene-seed Tithe, but the enhanced Gene-seed involves some Necrontyr technology.
Even if the Imperium Adeptus Mechanicus can't see anything wrong with it, the Inquisition will come crawling in as soon as there's a hint of Xenos technology.
At this stage, Han Mingxuan doesn't want to deal with those sycophants.
Moreover, he found Chapter combat too petty and preferred Legion combat.
I wonder how things are going with the Night Haunter. He doesn't have many men under his command right now, and I really feel like I'm short-handed.
Just three hours after Han Mingxuan returned to the Planet's surface, an uninvited guest arrived on the Father of the Evernight.
The Silent King has arrived.
"Announce the Dynasty you belong to, and the time of your resurgence."
"The Silent King?"
Krete looked at the suddenly appearing Living Metal man, but quickly dismissed his own answer.
"No, you are the Silent King, and yet you are not the Silent King, but that doesn't matter."
Silent King listened to Krete's words, even his Logic Unit struggled to grasp the meaning.
What does "is and isn't" mean?
Moreover, the other party clearly has the physical appearance of Imperium human, so why does it seem so familiar with me?
"Sigh, it seems I'll have to trouble Mr. Han to come up again."
Answer my question, human!
"Humans?" Upon hearing the Silent King's words, Krete laughed, "No, no, no, don't misunderstand, great Silent King, we are the Necrontyr."
Necrontyr?
When those three words appeared, the Silent King was stunned.
How long has it been since I last heard those three words?
But here's the problem: if the other person is Necrontyr, then who am I?
"You say you are Necrontyr?" the Silent King asked Krete, but his voice was gradually taking on a dangerous tone.
"Certainly."
"Absurd!"
In that instant, the Silent King unleashed his full aura, but to his surprise, no one present was intimidated by it.
He could sense Blackstone Technology in these people.
"This is blasphemy! How dare you steal the great technology of the Necrons Imperium!"
Krete simply smiled and shook his head.
"I've told you before, Szarekh, we are the Necrontyr, you are the Necrons."
"You don't seem like those Necrontyr!"
"Yes, the Necrontyr tens of millions of years ago lived a miserable life, with an average lifespan of no more than 50 years, and they even loved building tombs."
"Or maybe if I change my outfit, you'll recognize me."
As they spoke, Krete changed into a set of traditional attire belonging to the Necrontyr.
"Well, Szarekh, do you recognize me now?"
