Chapter 276 Return to Erth, subspace card drawing starts!
That was the message sent by the Primarch to the higher-ups of the Empire.
As the flagship of the Imperial Blood Merchant, the Govindi is also qualified to receive this information.
Guilliman issued such a warning to people:
Unprecedented darkness is gathering, a warp evil omen that spreads across the galaxy is about to take shape, and the war against the Chaos Gods has never been greater. It's so dangerous right now.
Humanity is only one step away from extinction...
The voice of the Primarch echoed in the cabin.
Ron couldn't help but sit up straight, his gaze penetrated the porthole and stared at the boundless starry sky outside.
At this moment, his mood is very complicated.
During this time, he has remained optimistic about the situation.
I think that the disaster from chaos has reached its peak, it has reached the bottom anyway, and no matter what happens next, it will be upward.
Unexpectedly, that was the beginning of the disaster.
His estimate of the impact of the Great Crack was wrong.
It was just an initial shock before, but now the big crack is really opening!
Suddenly, Ron felt a palpitation in his heart.
His psychic senses keenly sensed the changes in the warp.
The subspace is turbulent, and nightmarish and terrifying visions are eroding reality like erupting volcanic ash.
In the Milky Way, the Great Rift is spreading like wildfire, bringing more areas into the dark side.
Extremely evil eyes are peering at humans.
The original body's warning was confirmed.
The suffering is increasing!
Ron reacted suddenly and immediately controlled his body to send a warning to the territory.
Let agencies organize defenses.
However, it was still a step too late.
The impact of the changes in the Great Rift was so severe that thousands of messages seeking help instantly filled the channels in Wangting District.
At the same time, more news came.
The psykers in the territory have been affected to varying degrees, with dozens or hundreds of psykers corrupted by the influence of the subspace.
Killed on the spot.
The detection devices installed by the monitoring station in the surrounding star areas all found traces of the alien.
What’s even more troublesome is that Chaos invasions of varying degrees have appeared throughout the territory!
Fortunately, the territory had previously carried out a round of cleaning activities called "Great Purification", which almost eliminated most of the Chaos Corruption.
So although this Chaos invasion caused some casualties and losses, it was not beyond control.
Soon, Ron received a report from the Ministry of Military Affairs:
Several battle groups, elite Storm Army troops, and the Tribunal have assembled combat forces and will go to various places through the webway to quell chaos.
According to predictions, their military strength is enough to calm the turmoil in the territory in a short time.
Ron breathed a sigh of relief, but the sense of crisis in his heart was not relieved.
Judging from the signs of the territory, the expansion of the Great Crack is extremely rapid.
Although he has no problem here, at most he will be slightly disturbed.
But he can imagine how miserable the human empire is today.
At this moment, Holy Terra should be swallowed up by a flood of desperate astrological communications.
The Great Rift is expanding again, affecting every corner of the empire's territory, and entire star regions are being invaded by darkness.
While the storm is raging, the eager aliens speed up their invasion of the empire's territory.
Countless cultists and evil psykers have risen in rebellion.
I don’t know how many empires and civilized worlds will fall in this disaster.
The broadcast continues.
Ron could sense it.
Despite Guilliman's best efforts, his breathing became deeper and his voice became heavier.
Obviously, he received the news of the disaster and sensed the changes in the galaxy.
Guilliman's voice became louder and louder: In the face of evil, the Emperor stands with his people, and so does the Empire's supreme commander!
The Primarch swore that he would never cower behind the walls of Holy Terra and allow the enemies of Mankind to wreak havoc within the borders of the Imperium.
He will, as always, take the lead and fight among the stars, facing the enemies in the name of the Emperor.
In the face of the disaster of annihilation and genocide, the entire empire must unite as one and direct its troops against heretics, aliens, evildoers and mutants!
The Primarch named this desperate blow against the enemies of mankind the "Indomitus Crusade".
Wherever the banner points, the light of the Star Torch will penetrate the darkness, illuminating the journey for a magnificent army that has not been seen since the Great Crusade!
"The road ahead is strewn with war, and the Empire will respond graciously..."
At the end of the broadcast, Guilliman read softly.
Beep——
The broadcast is over.
The cabin became silent.
After a while.
Ron let out a long sigh: "Lao Ji has worked hard, I can't fall behind..."
Originally, he just wanted to hide behind Guilliman and develop steadily from behind.
Give support when appropriate.
But judging from the current situation, the territory is not as safe as imagined. He must speed up his development and build more fleets and high-level armed forces.
With Guilliman's oath, the Indomitus Crusade will be officially launched, and anyone who dares to stop it will be eliminated!
I'm afraid, the purge has already begun on Holy Terra.
He could roughly guess what the empire would do next.
New armies will be recruited, unprecedented armaments will be produced in the Mars factories; new huge fleets will be formed, and magnificent war engines will demonstrate the Emperor's majesty.
At the same time, the frenzy of mass production will be unstoppable, and every servant of the Emperor will perform their duties and devote everything.
Without a doubt.
A total war has begun across the entire galaxy.
No world can stay away from the increasingly violent subspace craze.
Ron thought about it and determined in his mind the next development goal of the territory: fanatical mass production!
In addition to forming a powerful armed force, he will also provide external support.
In the future, he will make every hot war place in the galaxy filled with war weapons engraved with the emblem of the savior!
After the local war is over, the territory can also settle in the relevant civilized world and enter into some cooperation and development agreements on infrastructure.
In the current territorial expansion regulations, only planets bordering the territorial area will be slowly recovered.
For those planets that are too far away, even outside the star field, it is not cost-effective to occupy them.
Nowadays, the galaxy is surrounded by enemies on all sides. Under such circumstances, occupying enclaves far away from the center will only increase management costs.
Influence the pace of territory development.
It is a better choice to seize resources and beliefs through cooperation or garrison, and each gets what they need.
Of course, that is only temporary. When it develops to a certain level, it is not impossible to expand further.
Ron got up from the sofa, stretched, and walked out:
"Sure enough, I still prefer to engage in infrastructure construction and production, and then create more firepower, bloodline The inheritance belongs to..."
Didi didi.
Shahim's communication came:
"Lord Savior, according to radar detection, there is a merchant fleet secretly following our ship..."
He was a little eager to try: "I guess it is that woman fleet, do you want to deal with them?”
It seems that the merchant spokesman Nia Danda is looking for trouble.
Rogue traders walk on the edge of gray all year round, and wars are common.
She was probably dissatisfied with Govindi, a family of imperial blood, for daring to "betray" the alliance and join the embrace of the original body.
To besiege the Govindi at this time, it is obvious that the original body is not taken seriously. How arrogant.
Ron thought for a while and shook his head.
"That guy can't run around for a few days. We don't have time to fight with her. We can just speed up the jump and get rid of them.
We have to return to Erth as soon as possible."
< br>
"Yes!"
Soon, Shahim followed the instructions and drove the Govindi and the frigate into the subspace jump.
However, it didn’t take long for the merchant fleet to catch up again.
Ron frowned:
"It seems that their ships are also high-end goods, and they can also use relay stations to lock our position."
It is indeed easy to be tracked when working on the bright side of the empire.
He almost wanted to transfer the Dream over and kill this merchant fleet.
After hesitating for a while, he gave up the idea.
After all, Nia Danda will be eliminated by Guilliman soon, and the merchant fleet under her name will probably be taken over by the Empire by then.
Providing transportation services for the Indomitus Crusade.
It’s not cost-effective to blow up these high-end products.
Ron asked Shahim to avoid the relay station and continue the jump.
After several jumps, the Govindi came to an area without a relay station, and then got rid of the merchant fleet.
……
The Govindi has just jumped out of subspace.
Boom——
The sudden attack shook the ship.
Inside the bridge.
Ron stabilized his body, and he quickly realized that it was an attack from an enemy ship!
He roughly understood the current situation.
When the Govindi jumped out of the subspace, the Geller force field had just dissipated and the void shield had not yet been fully raised.
The enemy ship took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack.
"The Geller force field of this ship is overloaded and cannot make the jump!"
The surrounding lines flashed with arcs, and the technical adjutant was operating on the panel and issued a report.
At the same time, the technician in charge of the radar reported:
"We found traces of the enemy. Two cruisers. The coat of arms on the ships show that they are...Chaos warships under the command of the Great Reaver Abaddon!"
The words just finished.
The bridge was silent.
These young crew members have received relevant education at Zhongji Academy.
They obviously knew what a formidable opponent Abaddon the Despoiler was.
Now that the Geller force field has been destroyed, it is difficult for them to escape through the subspace.
"The void shield is charged for defense, prepare to counterattack...Look for the nearest entrance to the webway!"
As the captain, Shahim did not panic much, and gave instructions one after another. issue.
Ron didn't say much.
His ability to command ships is not much better than these outstanding graduates who have studied at Zhongsi Academy for many years.
At this moment, he was more worried about Abaddon's attitude.
It is not a good thing to provoke such a powerful opponent in the real universe.
This is so much hatred.
As for searching for yourself so persistently?
I just don’t know if this encounter was a coincidence, or whether I am deliberately ambushing here for a sneak attack.
It feels like both are possible.
After all, Abaddon has a large number of Chaos Wizards under his command, and they can even predict when Belisarius Caul will rescue Guilliman.
They had just moved around in the subspace, so it was normal for those chaos wizards to find their traces.
But these are not important. What is important is to get out quickly. It is better to come out less often in the future.
Ron silently took note of Abaddon's account in his mind.
I have to look for an opportunity to snatch the warning star that Abaddon has been waiting for for a long time. I will make him angry to death!
Boom, boom, boom——
Lance rays and torpedoes clashed.
The warships of both sides fought, and the Govindi was defeated by one against two.
Ron frowned.
The Chaos warships under Abaddon's command are very strong, obviously higher than the Crimson King's warships. It seems that in the short term, it will be difficult to determine the winner.
In this case, you must not get entangled with it. If there are enemy reinforcements nearby, you will be in trouble.
Thoughts flashed by.
Sure enough, Shahim had the same idea.
After the technical adjutant found the nearest Webway entrance, the Govindi immediately turned around and headed towards the Webway entrance at full speed.
However, two enemy Chaos warships caught up with them at a faster speed.
Both sides continued to bombard.
The two battleships were damaged in many places, but they did not show any sluggishness. Instead, they accelerated their charge.
Crash directly towards the Govindi.
Ron frowned when he saw this scene. Those Chaos warriors wanted to join the gang!
This is a tactic commonly used by Chaos warbands.
If those Chaos Space Marines are allowed to jump gangs and enter the Govindi, the merchant guards will not be able to stop them.
The Govindi is getting closer and closer to the entrance area of the webway, and the two chaos warships following the ship are also getting closer.
Inside the bridge.
Shahim and the crew were very nervous, with cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads.
"It's okay, we can enter the webway before they hit us."
Ron estimated the approximate distance.
He patted Shahim on the shoulder, telling him not to be too nervous.
After experiencing so many wars, this situation is only a moderately interesting scene to him.
Whoosh——
A twisted passage appeared in the void in front of the Govindi.
That is the entrance to the Webway.
After receiving the astrological coordinate information from the Govindi, the Erth Star Torch immediately transferred the information to the Blackstone Throne.
Fortunately, this network entrance is registered and can be used.
The request to use the webway passed quickly, and the Blackstone Throne opened the entrance to the webway.
Whoosh!
The Govindi rushed towards the entrance and disappeared with the distortion of space before being hit by the Chaos warship.
However, the two battleships did not stop at all and also rushed forward.
Disappear into this airspace together.
Then the Webway passage closed, leaving only a barren void.
It didn’t take long.
Boom——
With strong space distortion, an unimaginably huge ship crashed out.
On the dark and ferocious ship is a huge doomsday cannon.
That's the planet killer, the flagship of Abaddon the Despoiler!
This is a creepy and terrifying battleship, and the shadow brought by its arrival is enough to conquer any star sector that dares to resist.
Because of the power of the Doomsday Cannon, it can easily penetrate the crust of any planet outside the atmosphere and hit the core of the planet.
The entire civilized world was torn apart and shattered by violent geological movements!
At least dozens of planets were destroyed by it.
The Planet Killer slowly stopped and began to search the nearby airspace.
But apart from some wreckage of ships and cannonballs, they found nothing.
Inside the bridge.
The ferocious shadow stood like a moving fortress.
“The Demon Eater!”
Along with the unwilling and hoarse and terrifying voice, the scarlet eyes suddenly lit up.
Looking straight into the void in front of you.
The further intensification of the Great Rift has made the activities of the Great Predators more frequent.
……
In the network channel.
Whoosh——
The silhouette of the Govindi appeared and moved forward at full speed.
Behind it, two Chaos warships bit into each other. The nearly 300-meter-long collision angle on their bows was ferocious, and they were about to collide with each other.
Inside the Chaos Battleship.
The ragged, dirty and corrupted crewmen controlled the warship to continue accelerating, seemingly not worrying about the consequences of a collision between the two ships.
Roar——
In the ferocious alloy cabin, hundreds of Chaos Space Marines roared.
They were filled with murderous intent and couldn't wait to board the ship and tear apart all living creatures.
No one can stop the attack of the Chaos Warriors!
Inside the bridge of Govindi.
Ron looked at the ship's radar panel quietly, and the enemy Chaos warship was catching up with him at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It will hit the Govindi in about thirty seconds. At the speed of the Govindi, it is absolutely impossible to escape.
However, he did not feel any nervousness.
Since those Chaos warriors like to fight in gangs so much, let’s do it!
He just likes to entertain these tough guys.
Ron was counting down in his mind.
As time passes.
Even in the bridge, you can feel the aura of chaos approaching, about to collide.
Coming!
Ron's eyes lit up.
Boom——
When the anticipation and excitement of the Chaos warriors reached their peak, the battleship suddenly suffered a violent collision.
The entire ship shook violently and almost rolled over.
Just now, two strange-looking battleships rushed out from the side of the webway and collided with them without any defensive measures.
The violent collision caused damage to both ships, and a huge gap appeared in the hull.
This sudden impact caused the corrupted crew members in the Chaos battleship to fall to the ground, and the skulls of some unlucky guys hit the wall and exploded.
They were afraid of it.
The excited roars of the Chaos warriors also stopped abruptly.
However, this is not over yet.
In the eyes of countless fearful eyes.
Those ugly warships magically reversed on the spot, and then crashed into them again like dump trucks.
Boom!
The two Chaos warships collided again and were pushed against the barrier of the Webway, unable to move.
The oscillation stopped.
As soon as the Chaos warriors got up, they saw the green tide coming.
Waaagh——
The leader of the green-skinned orcs, Boneeater Steelfang, rushed over and clamped the head of a Chaos warrior in his giant pincers.
Violent hammering.
Until it is beaten into a pulp mixed with armor fragments.
More greenskins came roaring, drowning the Chaos warriors...
Inside the bridge.
Ron withdrew his gaze, as if everything was expected.
As expected, it is better to leave professional matters to professionals.
Obviously, those green-skinned orcs know how to hit and fight better than the Chaos warriors.
When he placed the Chaos warships into the Webway, their tragic fate was sealed.
The number of greenskins in the Webway is overwhelming. No one can defeat Luo Ge in the Webway!
The Govindi moved on.
In the webway behind it, more and more greenskin warships are surrounding the Chaos warship, and the greenskins jump into the Chaos warship like trapeze artists.
At the same time, more greenskin construction machinery began to approach the demolition ship, fearing that other greenskins would snatch away the iron sheets and parts.
Not long after, the Chaos battleship was completely demolished.
The greenskins snatched the parts of the Chaos warship and the corpses of the Chaos warriors onto their own ships.
Then board the ship and dash away.
——
Two months later.
The spire mansion, balcony.
Ron leaned on the fence, overlooking the peaceful and harmonious territory, feeling quite comfortable.
The sight of Holy Terra in his mind and the scenery in front of him made him feel like he was in another world.
It’s better to have your own territory...
Full sense of security.
The turmoil caused by the expansion of the Great Rift has subsided.
After retrieving the missionary rights and the Imperial Blood Trading License from Holy Terra, the state religion and trading departments began to get busy.
The state religion united with the Star Torch Court to bring a large number of pilgrim ships to the holy land to worship.
At the same time, hand over the Holy Scriptures of Salvation and the way to contact the Holy Land to the pilgrims, so that they can be spread to other devout pilgrims.
Spread the brilliance of the Savior to more places.
When pilgrims contact the Star Torch, they must undergo several tests before they can get the Star Torch's navigation guidance.
Then, under the guidance of the Star Torch, the pilgrim ship will arrive at a clear area covered with defense arrays. After confirming safety, it can then sail into the airport and head to the Holy Land.
The merchant department also organized more caravans and began to try to develop shipping routes.
In order to start trade in the future, sell Erth's weapons and goods.
As the situation in the galaxy became increasingly anxious, Ron accelerated the pace of armed construction.
The Ministry of Military Affairs has launched a new round of military expansion to increase the number of new blood groups and space warriors.
A large number of psionic automated weapons manufacturing factories in the Lunar Forge World are already in operation.
Some trouble is the formation of the fleet.
Given the size of the ship, it is difficult to expand quickly. Fortunately, there is a solution to this matter.
The number of lost ships in the warp is unimaginable.
Ron is going to go there directly to pull some hulls and ship-borne weapons back for modification.
But what troubles him even more is the technological development of the territory.
This is difficult to break through in a short time.
The research and transformation work of Dreadnought Mecha, Imperial Knights, and Titans has encountered a bottleneck.
Existing technology cannot support the transformation to make it semi-automatic.
Originally, he wanted to use these semi-automated war engines as top products, but it was a pity that they could not be implemented.
Now if we want to develop technology quickly, we may have to get some technology from the Mechanicus.
After all, they have accumulated and collected technological knowledge for tens of thousands of years. Many technologies they have never used and have been sealed away as taboo knowledge.
However, getting those imperial oil guys to share their knowledge is probably more difficult than killing them.
It’s difficult...
Ron has a headache.
He slapped his head: "Forget it, if you are in doubt, just go to the subspace!"
Instead of worrying, it is better to go to the subspace to fish for boats and pick up garbage.
What if you pick up a complete STC that no one wants, or a brain from the golden age?
That would be developed!
Ron turned back to the bedroom and lay down on the soft big bed.
He closed his eyes, and his consciousness dived into the subspace and possessed the little sun.
Subspace card drawing, start! ! !
