Chapter 446 Black and Red, Planning in the Shadows (31) Negotiation

No, his confidence should not stop there.

The calmed mechanical priests finally had time to observe the team behind the Primarch. The crowd composed of representatives of the Inquisition, Grey Knights, Imperial Guards and Space Wolves stood quietly behind the Primarch and watched their every move.

The priests who realized it later finally realized that if the Primarch had a safety problem here, the Heper Forge World they represented would face what terrible consequences.

"Information shielding." The Forge Director used the laser generator on his body to send a signal covertly. The members of the surrounding order understood and quietly surrounded the crowd watching the ceremony while shielding the nearby communication band.

The conversation between the two continued, but after two cognitive changes in a short period of time, the initiative was no longer in the hands of the Forge Director.

"So what do you want?" Mayne turned around and looked at Calvin.

The other party has obtained this information, so it doesn't matter what means they use. This secret is too important to them, and once it is leaked, there is no pressure from the Inquisition. The siege of other Forge Worlds alone is enough to destroy them.

Since the other party can stand here and communicate with him, it means that he and the Heper Forge World are still useful to him.

"Weapons, ammunition? Soldiers or warships? You must know our bottom line. Please give us whatever you can give us."

"I want to see the Titan with my own eyes." Calvin said in a low voice. He also saw the intention of the mechanical monks and began to lower his voice to cooperate with each other's communication.

"That is our secret!" Mayne simply connected to the communication channel on Calvin's body, and the electronic Adam's apple modified according to his vocal cords roared in a low voice in the communicator.

"Not now." Calvin kept smiling and looked at both sides.

The crowd watching the ceremony knew nothing about their conversation and was still waving to him and the foundry director beside him.

Calvin looked at them politely, but the words he uttered made the foundry director on the verge of anger.

Yes, since the information was leaked, this has been a secret between him and Calvin. If he refuses the judge in front of him again, then according to Calvin's implication, this will soon be a secret between Heper and the Inquisition...

Inquisition? Secret?

God of All Things! This is not Mayne's prejudice.

But according to his previous understanding of the Inquisition, with their complicated personnel system with factions, if a secret falls into the hands of the Inquisition, what is the difference between telling the entire empire?

"You can ask for something more practical! What does that thing mean to you?" Mayne's voice can almost be called humble.

"For example, weapons? The tactical dreadnoughts and plasma weapons we produce here are of very good quality!

Perhaps you may need a battleship? There are three Moon-class cruisers that are about to be completed on our iron ring, all of which use the best technology of the Empire. With just one word, we can expedite all processes and deliver them to you within two weeks!

Or do you need military support? Although the Black Bee Corps is only a third-level Titan Corps, it also has 25 predators and attached war dogs.

There is also a mechanical electric monk corps guarding them. With just one word, they will clear all obstacles for you!"

While the two were talking, their footsteps had reached the end of the apron. As if he had not heard Mayne's suggestion, Calvin first turned around and said goodbye to the crowd, and then looked at Mayne seriously the moment he stepped into the tower:

"First, I have no ill intentions. That Titan also has a special meaning to me, and I may be able to help you solve its problem."

"Evidence?" Mayne's voice was still stable, but the increased noise in the communicator proved his surprise at this time.

"Evidence? This is the evidence!" Calvin answered Mayne's question while raising his palm in front of the two.

Under Mayne's gaze, a silver chain slowly extended from Calvin's palm.

"What is this? Oh! Damn it!"

The appearance of the chain did not alert Mayne at first, but until the light frequency flickered on it appeared, the foundry director who reacted was extremely shocked, and even took a step forward uncontrollably!

This is the mysterious code that polluted the Titan! This is the same kind of strange ruins located at the bottom core of the foundry world!

"Where did you get it!" Mayne asked subconsciously, and the greed and fear in his tone almost overflowed.

"It has nothing to do with you." Calvin's cold words made him regain his sanity.

Yes, the guy in front of him is not someone he can control. The thing is in Calvin's hands, and he can only trade honestly if he wants to get it.

"But I can tell you that this thing belongs to the category of psychic power. You can't play with it, and you can't get it."

Psychic power? The foundry director's brain is almost on the verge of crashing. No matter how many times he was given the opportunity to think, he would never connect the relic with psychic power. But the chain in front of him was overturning all his conclusions with facts.

"...Is this the reason why we have always failed?" Mayne asked unwillingly. The real answer was too cruel for him, so even though Calvin's evidence had been presented, he was still unwilling to accept the facts in front of him.

A relic, a relic found in his own world, a relic that obviously surpassed their technological level, a relic that may be older than the entire Forge World!

After generations of persistent research and nothing was gained, and another secret was lost for this, now someone told him with facts in front of him that all this had nothing to do with him, and it belonged to the field of psychic energy that made all the oilers powerless?

For a believer of the God of All Machines, this is no less than the end of the world!

"God of All Machines..." Mayne, who had recovered, could only comfort himself, at least this was good news.

The man in front of him had already received enough and had no motive to deceive him.

And if everything was really as he said, during his tenure, at least one meaningless project was terminated and the Emperor-class Titan was saved, thus laying the foundation for reverse engineering the technology contained in this Titan.

"First" Mayne subconsciously repeated Calvin's words, and then suddenly realized the missing follow-up. "What about the second one?"

"The second one?" Calvin's expression suddenly became cunning again, and then he slowly said something that made Mayne almost vomit blood:

"Second, why should I use the bargaining chips that already belong to me to negotiate with you? I want everything you said before!"

Update.
