Chapter 120: 219
Chapter 219: Kaul Joins
Hilandri was also hesitating.
But in the end she chose to agree to Kaul's request. After all, the permission to open the webway was always in her hands.
"I will tell you the location of the gate to the webway and open it. I will also tell you the route map. I will only allow you to let a large force pass through once. I hope you will not play any tricks. When you destroy the Rogue Trader Dynasty, we will help you awaken your Primarch."
Granting Cawl the Webway route was in the strategic interest of the Eldar not wanting the Eye of Terror to open.
Even if Cawl intentionally left some troops behind when passing through the webway, Hilandri was confident that she could destroy them with the help of the Harlequin's power.
"Very good, I will have my ship send out an exploration ship to verify the truth of what you said."
Cawl simply ignored the second half of Hilandri's words. If it was as the Emperor predicted, there was no need for these Eldar at all, he only wanted to know about the Webway. In Cawl's eyes, only the first half of the sentence was truly beneficial to the Empire. No matter what, he had to get the existing benefits first.
The webway. Kaul was also very attracted by it. It would be a rare opportunity if he could enter it and conduct his own research.
Hilandri didn't know what Kaur was thinking, she thought her plan had been fulfilled again.
If the Mongot Dynasty was destroyed, the plan to awaken Guilliman could proceed, but if Cawl breached the contract, they would give up awakening Guilliman.
The control of the webway made Hilandri think that the initiative was in her hands.
Cawl repelled the approaching Skitarii and negotiated further with the Eldar.
As the location of the Webway gate and the route map were handed over to Cawl, an expedition team composed of priests who were absolutely loyal to Cawl entered the opened Webway gate with the help of Hilandri to verify its authenticity.
One of the priests in this team is a degraded version of himself created by Cawl himself to ensure that he can fully obtain the data observed in the Webway.
Almost not long after, the investigation team returned to Kohl. After reading the data from the degraded body, Kohl also confirmed the authenticity of the transaction.
"Don't forget our deal! When your fleet needs to pass through the webway, use this thing."
A stone engraved with special runes was thrown to Cawl. This one-time rune stone could open the entrance to the Webway once for a limited time.
The webway is large enough to accommodate fleets.
After she finished speaking, Hilandri's body began to become illusory, and the holographic suit started up again.
Soon the opponent disappeared from the detection of Caul's threat core.
At this time, Cawl was struggling with whether to go to Cadia first to help the Imperial defenders and protect the Blackstone Obelisk or to awaken the Primarch first.
He didn't know when Gao Yi, mentioned by the emperor, would arrive, and the two sides did not have the conditions to establish communication.
However, not long after, the Star Pioneer appeared directly in the galaxy where Cawl was located.
When Cawl received the communication from Gao Yi, he knew that the Emperor's final prophecy had been verified.
Cawl boarded the Star Pioneer alone and came to the bridge.
He saw Gao Yi walking up to him surrounded by the imperial guards.
When Cawl saw the Custodes, he no longer had any doubt about the previous prediction.
Gao Yi also looked at Dora Kaur in front of him.
Cawl's body was much larger than expected, and the degree of mechanical modification was indeed something Gao Yi had never seen before. If judged by the aesthetics of the Mechanicus, Cawl would definitely meet the standard that was closest to that of the Ohm Messiah.
Gao Yi was thinking in his heart that if Kohl could also join the dynasty's various scientific research plans, the scientific research progress within his dynasty would definitely be greatly improved.
"Isn't this Belisarius Cawl, the great sage of the Adeptus Mechanicus and the greatest scientist in the empire?"
"Compared to the title of Great Sage, I prefer you to call me a scientist, although I haven't heard this title for a long time. Unfortunately, the last person who called me that was a traitor who believed in chaos."
"Fabius Bile? I have to say he's crazy, but his skills are really amazing."
After all, even the original body can be cloned.
Kaul was also surprised that Gao Yi actually knew something that only he knew.
"I assume you are the Rogue Trader Gao Yi Mongert?"
"It seems that you have received the message from the Emperor? Yes, it's me!"
Kohl's electronic prosthetic eye scanned Gao Yi, but he did not see anything special about Gao Yi, not even any physical modification, let alone psychic power. As long as Gao Yi did not actively release it, the surrounding psychic energy would be devoured by him.
"Kawl, as the mouthpiece of the Emperor, we need you to cooperate with Lord Gao Yi to complete his mission. Remember, this is not doing things for us, but fulfilling your duty to the Emperor."
"Respected Imperial Guards, I don't need you to remind me. I will cooperate with Lord Gao Yi. But how did you bypass the detection of my Iron Ghost and approach my fleet?"
Even now Kaur still couldn't figure it out.
"Want to learn? I'll teach you!"
Inside the jump engine compartment of the Star Pioneer.
The sound emitted by Kohl's sound array could not suppress the excitement in it.
"Jump drive. Is this really the technology? It really doesn't rely on the webway and the warp, or is it like the Necrons?"
"Guaranteed authenticity."
"It's incredible that the long-cherished wish of the Technological Emperor has been fulfilled in your hands. But the transplantation technology is too crude. Don't you have some priests with qualified skills?"
Gao Yi really didn't know what Pavian would think if he heard what Kaul said. The leader of the Holy Mechanic Order became a person with unskilled skills in Kaul's mouth.
However, Pavian did not have any outstanding qualities before he met Gao Yi. Only after Gao Yi strengthened him did he seem to come to his senses. However, no matter how hard a priest who has lived for a hundred years studies, he cannot compare with Kohl, a monster who has accumulated knowledge for tens of thousands of years.
"However, Dynasty has not yet completely cracked this technology. Perhaps you can join in! You won't refuse such a precious technology, right?!"
"Of course not, I would never mind learning more!"
Then Kaur told Gao Yi about the deal that Hilandri had mentioned.
"The webway to Cadia? Is there such a good thing? You gave me such a great gift on our first meeting!"
Gao Yi originally thought that this group of elves had not come to trouble him for a long time. What the hell, they wanted to trick him here. Now, all the deals he made in order to trick me have become Gao Yi's spoils of war.
He did not expect to gain such a reward. Gao Yi was originally thinking about how to solve the problem of the subspace storm surrounding Cadia. His fleet could jump in, but the assembled Imperial fleet could not. He did not have so many jump engines to modify them, and there was not enough time.
Now, with the existence of this webway, the Imperial support fleet can cross the warp storm without damage.
The Eldar wanted to use the power to open the webway to control the empire, but they didn't know that Gao Yi had already mastered the method.
"You can still open the webway?!"
Everyone who meets Gao Yi for the first time will feel that Gao Yi can always bring surprises.
"Are you ready to awaken Guilliman?"
"The Armor of Destiny has been forged, but if what the Eldar said is true, Lord Guilliman's health may not be fixed by the Armor of Destiny alone. Can you really solve this problem?"
"If you don't believe me, do you not believe the Emperor? Don't worry, I am sure of it. But since you gave me the gift of the Webway, I will give you a gift too!"
"A gift for me
