Chapter 101 Old and Strong
The temperature in the forward bridge is now very comfortable, and the air conditioner has also ensured that the humidity is maintained at a level that most people will find happy.
The brilliant starlight outside the window leaked through the wide portholes, casting large spots of light of different colors on the front of the bridge.
The bridge officers and the dimension-technical sergeants were both silently and efficiently doing what they were supposed to do at their respective posts, while the Destiny Steel's propellers were working steadily, helping the ship now disguise itself The Queen of Glory battleship, a modified Merchant moon-class ship, maintains a suitable and powerful cruising posture in the desolate star sea of the Markanyi Machis sub-sector in the Calixis sector.
"Perturabo" picked up the coffee cup from the tray and took a sip. The latest hot Reca coffee with hazelnut flavor and light cream from the officers' mess immediately made his brows widen.
"Then you can go on, Soltarn. And, Walter, are you sure you don't want a drink? It's really great."
"I am grateful for this honor you have given me, My lord, but my tongue, esophagus and intestines, may you bless them, they can only function normally with promethium, vitamins and cleaning fluids."
"Well, that's too much. Sorry, Soltarn, continue."
The Stoneforger seems to be in good spirits today, as he has for about ten thousand years, especially after the death of Frix the Breaker. It was the first time I saw a mason taking active action with such strength and strength.
He nodded, walked to the projector, opened the stereoscopic projection map of this sub-star area, and began to explain what they were going to do next in a more detailed and intuitive way.
"One thing I hope you know is that, my lord, although our great Iron-Blooded's warp jump voyage has always started simply and went smoothly - oh, except for the encounter with Omphalos Evil Spirit, Outside - other times, our voyages ended easily, but for the vast majority of Imperial and Chaos traditional ships, warp travel has always been a very, very dangerous act."
"Even though. It is a captain with long-term experience who only intends to carry out a short-term and close-range subspace jump with an already established goal in a sub-sector that is still nominally under the rule of the Corpse Emperor, and the risks are not high. Smaller than a long-distance jump - Of course, our Captain Walter, I believe he is one of the top captains on either side."
Cyborg. The human captain greeted the stone forger with a slight nod.
“Therefore, in fact, the correlation between the risk incidence of subspace trek accidents and the distance and time is not as great as people think.”
“Navigators - they The family they were born in has been cultivated with purpose and quantity from the beginning, and when today's human navigation can almost only rely on their ability to inherit genes, from then on, they will be the best in all long-distance space navigation and the highest level. Since occupying a key position in the ruling body, related rumors and speculations have never stopped, but at least on the surface, even among some Astartes, the Navigator is able to visually see the brilliance of the Star Torch. They are treated with extremely high courtesy due to their characteristics - for example, the Astartes monks of certain orders will kneel down to greet the Navigator Lord when he arrives -"
"What?!" A certain super-big guy who was drinking Rekka coffee let out a small exclamation that was very damaging to the majesty of the original body. The scorner next to him who was connected to a large number of data streams stretched out his toes and stepped on it in his busy schedule. Give him a look. "Ahem, I mean, keep going, Soltarn. It's good science, but I'm curious about the final connection between this and the implementation of your combat plan."
"Of course, I was about to say Come here, my master. It depends on the great power and generous help of our Master Seer, your psychic advisor full of ancient wisdom and worldly knowledge." The mortal young man sitting on the other side of the throne held. His staff raised the corners of his mouth reservedly, and at the same time sent a psychic communication to his two brothers.
"I must say that although your heir looks a bit decayed, he speaks really nicely. It is quite a pleasure to talk to him, and besides-"
"Shhh. Let's talk later, let's hear it first."
"--The courtesy that some navigators and their lords in the Adeptus Astartes receive is quite high. It's incredible. I still feel Still remember the lies the Corpse Emperor told you and us back then, but now his most fanatical group of Space Marines fanatically worship not only him, but everything and everyone associated with him as a manifestation of God. , even at the expense of oneself.”
Soltarn almost laughed out loud when he said this, "As far as I know, this very ridiculous phenomenon occurs frequently among the Imperial Fists and his largest sub-group." [Wow, I must. I have to say that I have always thought that the Space Marines of the Imperial Fists were a symbol of integrity and unyielding besides being very different. This description of kneeling to the Navigator Lord is still a bit beyond my imagination. 】
【Humph. Some immature groups that were overconfident at the beginning developed into a certain inevitable pattern later. What do you see me doing? Also, what do you mean when you say it's so boring? Forget it, let’s discuss what misinformation you have seen before. I already have a rough idea of what Soltarn wants to do. 】
【Ah? 】
【You should read more. It was I who asked him to tell the entire combat background in such detail this time. If he had dared to show off like this in front of me before, I would have told him Fitted into my Iron Guard. 】
【oh. …Thank you, Pepe. 】
【Hmph! 】
"Although it is very different from the traditional fighting style of our Legion, the Sons of Rogal Dorn will eventually be easily taken down by us because of their stone-fortress-like mindset," Soltarn's eyes Flashing a cunning light, "Please allow me to present to you my battle plan for this Imperial Fist expedition fleet. My Lord, I would like to call it a tour of your steel cage. Please see - ”
An intuitive holographic three-dimensional space naval battle simulation battle map unfolded in front of them.
[Oh, well, I’m starting to feel bad. Look at this outflank, surprise attack and total annihilation... I said, Soltarn must not be serious...]
[What kind of spring and autumn dream are you doing? Magnus has seen it clearly with his eyes. Their fleet route and jumping point are clearly in the direction we left after the last supply. 】
【Then they can't locate us very accurately. Uh, is that okay? No way? 】
[Magnus said that he saw a bunch of Dornish stone heads on the road who did not hesitate to use registered psykers and soothsayers as prophecy consumables to perform rituals and catch up with us. 】
【Uh...it's suddenly hard for me to tell which side feels more evil. I roughly understand the battle plan, but who will we order to take command this time? 】
[Soltarn proposed it, and of course he will direct it. 】The dog added. [If he fails, he will never be captured. 】
Gua.
This part has been written over and over but I just can’t write it very smoothly
There is a chapter in the second chapter. I’m writing. Let’s have a bite to eat first. Everyone remembers to eat too
