What the hell is this?!

Zhou Yun looked at the magnificent metal statue in a daze.

That was a Doraemon statue cast from thick metal.

Doraemon's round face looked down at this scarlet land from high in the sky, stretching out its round hand toward the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, as if it were giving orders to an entire Mars.

The hazy orange-yellow sky light of the Martian afternoon spilled onto the blue paint of this metal statue, instantly illuminating everything around it in blue, and Zhou Yun's face was the same.

Looking at this statue, his brain was dazed, and messy thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

Many years later, when Zhou Yun stood in the 22nd century, he would surely remember the distant afternoon when Uula took him to Mars to visit the Doraemon statue...

Zhou Yun's gaze looked at Uula.

Uula's massive body trembled instantly, and he hurriedly said: "My lord, this was definitely not prepared by me."

Then Zhou Yun knew who prepared it.

That red-clothed Martian mechanical big bug, using the Axe of the Omnissiah as a scepter, walked out from under the statue and bowed to Zhou Yun in a pious posture.

"Cawl."

Zhou Yun took a deep breath and said:

"You know I'm not a god, right?"

"Of course, my holy lord." Belisarius Cawl lowered his head humbly and said: "As you said, you are obviously not a god."

"Then tell me what the hell this is!"

Zhou Yun pointed at the metal statue and said.

This statue had too much visual impact, and the style did not match this galaxy, making Zhou Yun's nerves a bit disordered.

He was afraid that this thing would suddenly move in the next moment and perform a "Doraemon standing on the earth" for him————"This thing won't really be able to move, right?" Zhou Yun gasped and said.

"Move?" Belisarius Cawl was obviously stunned for a moment, and then the half of his face that remained tightened, and his eyes widened: "It can also move!"

Zhou Yun listened to Belisarius Cawl's words, gasped instantly, and cast a vigilant gaze at this Archmagos of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Cawl noticed Zhou Yun's gaze and shook his hands quickly and violently: "My lord, you misunderstood; this is not idol worship of you."

"You said yourself that you are not a god; how could I defile your glory with hypocritical idol worship? Please look."

Saying that, Cawl handed a data board to Zhou Yun, which was the production report of the factory near the statue.

"In the area closest to the statue, our production efficiency has increased by two hundred and twenty-two percent; even in the area twenty-two kilometers away, production efficiency has also increased by twenty-two percent."

"My lord, this is not superstition and idol worship; this is to improve the production efficiency of the entire Mars, completely out of rationality rather than fanaticism."

"Really or fake..." Zhou Yun looked at the data board in Cawl's hand and fell into hesitation.

His will instantly extended in all directions, extending into every machine.

Indeed, the operating efficiency of the machines around this statue was much better than others... After all, Zhou Yun did occupy some positions in the field of malicious arts in the Warp; worshipping him was theoretically the same as worshipping the Omnissiah, and he could mobilize part of the power in the field of malicious arts, which could improve the operating efficiency of machines.

Even according to the report submitted by Cawl, worshipping Zhou Yun was more useful than worshipping the Omnissiah.

This was very normal; after all, Zhou Yun couldn't say what the Omnissiah was, but as a competitor in the field of malicious arts, he could guarantee that the oil guys worshipped the Omnissiah and worshipped nothing, at most pointing to the Emperor.

This made Zhou Yun a bit hesitant; he didn't want to be worshipped as a god, but if it was really as Cawl said, just purely to improve production efficiency, it didn't seem impossible.

Zhou Yun flipped through Cawl's report; he had conducted many pilot projects and experiments in this area, standardizing the prayer rituals to Zhou Yun and Saint Doraemon.

"Praise the great Saint Doraemon, you are not a god, but your holiness makes the machine roar and power surge."

"Saint Doraemon is not a god, but Saint Doraemon is supreme, the Primordial Motive existing in all things."

"You are the source of power, you are the First Motive, you are the First Cause of all machine operation, but you are not a god."

Every prayer word designed by Cawl emphasized that Zhou Yun was not a god; Zhou Yun was the Primordial Motive, but the Primordial Motive and the Machine God, the Omnissiah, were different. The Primordial Motive was not a god; the Primordial Motive was the first driving force of the birth of the world, and also the first force at the beginning of the birth of the universe, the First Cause of all things, but definitely not a god.

"The circumference of the Martian equator is exactly about twenty-two thousand meters; I plan to build one thousand holy statues around the equator in the first phase of the project, so that the production efficiency of the entire Mars will increase by a large margin, and then build more holy statues according to the latitude and longitude lines until the entire Mars is shrouded in your blessing."

"Don't worry, I have passed the judgment of the right-wrong divination machine for these plans, which is beneficial and harmless."

Cawl had applied for thirty right-wrong divination machines through Guilliman; he didn't expect him to use them here.

Zhou Yun frowned; after all, blocking is not as good as dredging. Cawl did indeed have no problems; he even just did a series of precise experiments and small-scale pilot projects without going alone without Zhou Yun's consent.

"You just enlightened me; we can completely design your holy statue into some kind of mobile device similar to a Knight or Titan."

"Then put it on the battlefield; it can not only boost the efficiency of our machines, but theoretically it can also suppress the weapons, power armor, and various war machines of those traitors."

Belisarius Dora-Cawl said in an excited voice.

"... You this." Zhou Yun couldn't help but rub his brow; it was indeed theoretically feasible, which was through Zhou Yun borrowing the power of the field of malicious arts,

But this style was indeed a bit abstract... Finally, Zhou Yun sighed: "If you are not sure about faith-related issues, you must pass the judgment of the right-wrong divination machine."

Cawl bowed humbly, looking like he was listening to teachings.

Zhou Yun scratched his hair and turned to look at Uula, who had been moved to the transport vehicle.

"Take me to see the book you mentioned."

Uula mentioned that once he was on Mars, he would inexplicably start having dreams, dreaming of the so-called Dragon of Mars, even though he had long lost the function of sleep.

The most peculiar thing was that this situation of dreaming did not involve the Warp at all; even if Uula tried to use Pariahs, Blackstone, and Necron Null-Field Matrices, he could not affect the appearance of this dream.

And this situation appeared because Uula obtained a strange book; this book was said to come from the guardian of the Dragon of Mars, recording the truth of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

But Uula found that there were only some ghost symbols in the book; people with weak will would foam at the mouth and be on the verge of death, and people with strong will would also faint directly. Uula had many Cogitator arrays to assist in thinking, but he couldn't read it, only appearing in dreams.

Zhou Yun came to Mars this time to take a look at that book.

Uula's body buzzed, revealing a moment of hesitation, seeming a bit reluctant, as if there was something he cared about here.

But after all, it was Zhou Yun's order, so Uula still directed the transport vehicle to start moving, carrying Zhou Yun to the nearby Olympus Hive.

Belisarius Dora-Cawl saw Uula leave with Zhou Yun, and a smile appeared on the half of his face that remained.

He expanded his massive body, quickly approached the door of the sky ladder, and covered a footprint on the ground with his body.

That was Zhou Yun's first step on Mars; in Cawl's view, this was simply an incomparable holy relic.

Many machines were released from his body, quickly cutting out the entire ground and surrounding it with a stasis field.

"This is one small step for Saint Doraemon, but a giant leap for the Adeptus Mechanicus."

Cawl quoted the words of Saint Armstrong, who was recognized as a saint by the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Uula's massive body was stuffed into this large room located on the top floor of the Olympus Hive through hoisting.

This room could be called large, but it couldn't be called luxurious; the interior decoration was very monotonous, piled with messy mechanical drawings and documents.

Obviously, even the Fabricator General couldn't escape the overtime curse of the High Lords.

A Servitor carrying a huge safe came to Uula and Zhou Yun.

Uula lifted the field covering the safe, opened the safe, and exposed the ancient book in the safe to Zhou Yun's eyes.

"Knight? Knight! Knight??"

"Fuck your mother! Physics doesn't exist!"

"Is this still a backward planet in the Middle Ages?"

A noisy, crazy curse kept surging from this ordinary-looking thick-skinned ancient book.

The cover of this book was broken, but the cracks on it cleverly formed some indescribable geometric structures.

This book looked limited, but to Zhou Yun's feeling, it seemed infinite in space.

That was just a mysterious feeling, full of the wisdom of the pure material realm.

Zhou Yun thought for a while, grabbed the book, and stuffed it into his four-dimensional pocket.
