Chapter 185: Prosperity
The original body and the leader walked into the command deck together.
The officers on the command deck briefly put aside their work, saluted and continued working.
Qin Xia used his psychic vision to observe the situation in the subspace so that he could adjust the flow of psychic energy in time.
Angron was wandering around the command deck, occasionally standing behind an officer to observe the work.
"4981233."
"You calculated this thing."
Angron stood behind an officer and said to the officer who was operating the computer to slowly calculate the logistics supplies.
The officer was very irritated by the tedious calculations. He was interrupted when he was concentrating on the calculations and turned around to glare.
After discovering that it was the original body, the officer changed his face instantly, saluted and cast a grateful look, and then filled in the answer calculated by the original body in seconds on the form.
Angron walked to the other officers again, listening and watching in silence, and occasionally speaking out to help when he saw someone who could help.
For mortals, extremely difficult calculations are like one plus one, a mathematical problem taught in Nuceria Kindergarten.
There is not always a place for Angron to help.
After going around in a circle, Angron returned behind the officer who was doing the calculations. After seeing that the other officer had finished his day's work, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the pile of numbers on the form: "Are these our logistical surplus. "
"Yes, Your Highness, we will be in danger if they turn into four figures," the officer replied respectfully.
"Oh." Angron tilted his head slightly, "I always feel that those of you who are in charge of logistics are in a hurry and tired, but you haven't paid attention to the logistics... It's really hard work."
"For the Empire, for humanity." the officer replied.
"..." Angron nodded and walked quietly to the communications officer. He stood behind the communications officer and watched him operate the communications device, contact all parts of the ship and listen to reports from each place.
Every ship in the fleet is like a city, and the Resolute Resolve is a huge city.
The census alone will take a long time.
But when Angron stepped in to manage the Hound's Fang after the civil unrest ended, the situation aboard each ship became clear.
Every senior officer in the fleet knows the most important thing.
That is, the rebels on the lower deck were not suddenly spawned during the subspace navigation stage, but were bred by people on the ship. If they could not survive, they would have to rebel.
The population of the lower deck of the ship was counted, and a new rationing system was applied. Those who had thrived in the lower deck for a long time were given jobs and rice bowls, and the living environment was greatly improved.
While Angron was wandering around, the fleet jumped out of the warp and arrived at a system.
"This is the territory of the empire." Salin ordered the officers, "Add supplies."
The officers then passed on the order.
The fleet began to approach the star port for supplies.
"Report to Captain." The communications officer stood up and looked at Saleen, "There are some people on World Three in the galaxy who want to join the Emperor's great cause and expand the territory of humanity."
This is not the case. This is not the first time the fleet has encountered such a situation.
People from some planets that have done well in education will spontaneously gather together and wait for a certain legion's fleet to sail by to join the fleet and contribute to the great cause of all mankind.
This is the thirtieth millennium.
From a macro perspective, the human race is thriving and full of vitality.
The courage, determination, and enterprising spirit that were once forgotten, some of these precious qualities have been recovered.
Qin Xia knows that the influence of chaos in the 30th millennium is not that widespread yet, so there is a high probability that this group of people is really just contributing to the ongoing undertakings of mankind, and even contributing to their needs.
But you still have to be careful when encountering this kind of thing.
"The White Knight needs some sailors." Qin Xia walked towards the airlock door, "I'll go take a look."
The fleet began to wait.
Waiting for supplies, waiting to prepare for the next warp voyage.
Those who wanted to join the fleet were in the star port, and after Qin Xia had insight into their souls, they were connected to the White Knight by the transport fleet.
These hundreds of thousands of people sang music in unison to praise humanity and the Emperor, and happily walked in the White Knight's transportation channel.
The captain arranged jobs and accommodation for them, and then these people immediately rushed to their jobs.
Qin Xia found that many of them were even respectable rich people, or scientists, or top students from local schools, which showed that they were not a group of poor people who could not survive in the local area.
These people left their hometowns in order to join the great cause being carried out by all mankind. Under the farewell of the local planet governor and civilians, they wore decorations representing honor in the local culture, and then lined up to go to the star port and enter the battleship. .
For humanity, for the emperor, for the empire, and for that dream-like goal, people give up everything they have in their hometown, just to be able to contribute all the strength they can as an individual.
They knew what they were about to face - they had lived on battleships for generations, engaged in the same kind of work for generations, and given birth to "children of the void" who were sometimes mistaken for aliens in the void environment. They didn't know when they would be born. Die in a warp navigation accident, and perhaps be killed or played to death by abominable aliens.
But they are fearless.
After hundreds of thousands of people settled on the White Knight and were distributed on various decks, supplies were replenished.
The fleet sailed to Mandeville Point and jumped into subspace.
The voyage continues.
…
Three months later.
“This long journey was like traveling until we arrived in the Onus sector.”
“I saw a lot of things.”
Fortitude and Resolve Inside the office.
Angron and Qin Xia were sitting inside and outside the desk respectively, having daily chats.
“Some worlds have very cruel imperial rulers, and some worlds are well managed by imperial rulers.”
“People are different.”
“And, The empire is really huge, and there are really many places where humans have set foot. ""There are worlds where only primitive tribes exist, there are worlds where the technological level is higher than Nuceria, there are worlds where the moral level is extremely high and material conditions are abundant, there are regular periods. A world where people are killing each other”
"..."
Qin Xia listened with a smile.
He was also shocked by this journey.
After coming to this universe, in the 40th millennium, I either followed White Scar everywhere, or was carried around in a jar by the Gray Knights. I have never seen so much.
It was only in the 30th millennium that I truly experienced it.
The Milky Way is huge, and the territory of the Human Empire before the end of the Great Crusade was also huge.
"On the whole, the entire race is thriving now." Angron said with emotion.
Qin Xia feels the same way.
The Iron Man Rebellion did not plunge mankind into the abyss. What really plunged mankind into the abyss was actually the subspace storm.
The Eldar's depravity awakened or shaped Slaanesh, one of the Dark Gods whose cries caused warp storms to ripple across the galaxy.
The means of faster-than-light navigation are no longer available, and human worlds have lost contact with each other. This is the real reason why mankind has fallen into the abyss.
Now that the subspace storm has dissipated, the means of faster-than-light navigation has been restored.
It is true that there are many, many worlds that still maintain a state of ignorance and poverty, but they at least know the existence of the human empire and the purpose of the founders of this empire.
The human race as a whole has finally begun to climb upward, and has begun to regain the lost qualities of bravery, enterprising, and tenacity.
Qin Xia is not a member of the Imperial War Council and many institutions of the empire, and cannot know the overall situation of the human race from data. However, as the leader of the original body of the World Eaters Legion and the Lord of the White Knights, he can A glimpse into the current situation of the human race as a whole from a microscopic perspective.
When the World Eaters arrive in a system to resupply, there will be people who want to join the fleet and contribute as before.
There will be local people who will contribute the few supplies on the planet and give them a request.
There will be primitive tribesmen shouting "We don't understand anything, but we just want to fight for the great chief called the Emperor!", and then ask to join the fleet as combatants.
Qin Xia also saw a lot of dark things.
The heavy tithe.
A world that used to be pretty good was replaced by rulers appointed by some inhumane empire, and then became rotten and poor.
In order to conquer a world faster, the empire chose to maintain the rule of local slave owners.
And so on.
But it is undeniable that the human race is full of vitality from an overall perspective.
Because now there is still hope and possibility for everything.
"Overall, compared to 10,000 years later, now is simply a golden age." Qin Xia said.
"It would be better if there weren't so many aliens with amazing strength." Angron stood up and walked to the porthole.
After all, this trip is not to travel and gain knowledge, but to deal with the Ork barbarians in the Onus sector.
There has been no news from the Onus sector, but both Angron and Qin Xia felt that Vulkan had now put down the alien empire and began to face the attack of the Ork barbarians.
But it is undoubtedly impossible for the Eighteenth Legion to hold an entire star sector, but at least they can hold on until reinforcements arrive.
"When I get to the Onus sector, I will find a way to establish a relationship with Vulcan, and then ask him to help me build a weapon or something." Qin Xia said after thinking.
The adoptive father has always been frank, and Angron was not surprised and agreed: "I will also find ways to work hard in this area. Whether it is my brother named Vulkan or Fulgrim Brothers, or brothers named Ferus... They are all as good at making things as Perturabo's twisted monster."
As he said that, Angron turned to look at Qin Xia: "No matter what, you can do it. Build a set of armor and weapons for my father. I owe them everything.”
Qin Xia nodded silently, but in his heart, he thought that Angron, as the leader of the Twelve Legions, was not a good person. If you owe others a favor, you still have to figure out how to get your own weapons and armor.
Angron was thinking about what kind of armor to design to be worthy of Qin Xia, but after thinking about it, he decided not to think about it, because after all, his design ability was half-learned. If it were those brothers If you can help, you will definitely be much better than yourself.
While the Primarch was thinking, a flash appeared at the edge of the system, and two cruisers jumped out of the warp with three frigates.
Then a holographic projection appeared above the desk.
That was transferred from the command deck.
"Lord of the Twelve Legions."
The face of Alcahas Farr, the shadow lord of the Nineteenth Legion, appeared in the projection.
The legion commander first saluted Angron, then looked at Qin Xia with complicated eyes full of helplessness, and finally started talking about business.
“Lord Corax of the Nineteenth Legion sent me to assist you in the battle. The Lord knew that your legion’s void combat force was insufficient, so he asked me to bring the battleship, and I and the thirty thousand I brought People can also be used as assassination troops for you to drive."
Fal saluted after finishing speaking.
Angron stared at Farr in the projection: "To be honest, have you been exiled by my brother?"
Farr choked obviously, thinking that he would follow him later Angron couldn't hide it when they met, so he told the truth: "Yes, Lord of the Twelve Legions. My primarch exiled me and most of the people who were also slave owners of the dry land tribes, but the primarch Say we can try our luck with you, either go to Onus with you, or go on the Great Expedition ourselves.”
"Of course you can join me." Angron nodded slowly, "I don't think there are too many people, because the war that is going to be fought needs to save a lot of people and fight a lot of battles."
The magic on the projection Er was visibly relieved.
Qin Xia saw that Corax had also said something to Farr. For example, if Angron was willing to take him with him, he would have a chance to return in the future.
"At your command." Farr saluted again.
Angron raised his hand and pointed at Farr.
"But don't think you damn things will get any courtesy from me."
"You will atone for your sins in your own way."
"I will train you slave owners well. .”
