While doing all this, the Pharos opened in my mind to show the true state of the Segntum, and even beyond that in the Eastern Fringe.
Hive Fleet . These were very large machines, the size of the largest Imperial Knights and even more powerful. I shall see to it that Blank Astartes got to pilot these Leviathans, and stand strong in the face of Greater Demons or Ork Bosses of sa size. Plus the arms could be made to end in Power Fists, and thus able to hold gigantic lee weapons like Reason had his Power Glaive.
Then tanks and troop transports in a hundred configurations, and lastly a simple, rugged and better lasgun for the infantry. Pretty much a Hotshot gun, but firing fast and without overheating. I wasn't able to create sothing this simple and potent even after decades of constant attempts, and yet this Necron took only a few years to overhaul hundreds of chanicus designs and make them all better. Damn cheater!
"I trust my efforts are appreciated, stranger. I had to coerce a billion of my slaves to work on the pathetic weapons of humanity and repair what flaws they could. Luckily I had a thousand tech-priests to extract mories from. They seem a bit...drained now, but I can give them back if you wish." Trazyn explained in a proud tone.
He didn't even work personally for this? Well, slave and serf labour was the norm in the galaxy, from the Imperium to the Orks and the myriad of slavers and Enslavers.
"It's decent work, I admit. Here, a database of Tau technology now. Perhaps we can obtain even smaller ship engines and better forcefields." I replied while keeping calm and depositing the valuable data-stack on his work coffin. Then I retrieved a lock of hair from Amberley's son Aeneas and sent it over as well. "Gene samples for the bloodline flaw in the staff. Perhaps those Jokaeros can craft more Null Rods?"
Trazyn waved a hand at the air, and produced a small wand as proof. "Their Null Wands are even better than those contraptions of the chanicus. Wider range, and no disruptions from Warp Storms. They even upgraded my own Empathic staff!"
I sighed in defeat. Of course, the orange orangutans were idiot-savants, and also made the fabled digital weapons prized anywhere in the galaxy, by everyone. I took out another dataslate with my own STC templates, most importantly those which didn't work yet, and sent it over as well. "Another batch of less advanced machines, most of them created at Forge World Retribution, to be used to develop the Fringe. They need to remain at micron-level of quality, because there are no better Forges out there."
That wasn't entirely true, but better appear weaker and harmless.
"Savages! How can they even entangle quant...nevermind. These are simple designs indeed! Electric trains! Only these personal shields have a small value. Flawed and inefficient, but at least so of those silly tech-priests tried. There might be a small hope for humans, after all." the Necron tech-wizard uttered in slight disgust.
And those conversion shields were my best work!
