Chapter 233 The Development of the Association
Stoke really didn’t dare to joke anymore.
Honestly plan the building structure to help Qin Xia achieve a perfect stronghold.
Originally, the Iron Warriors thought that they would have to work after they came down, just like when they followed Perturabo to fight everywhere. They not only had to fight but also fight dust. They always did the most painful and tiring things.
But now they are all standing together, shooting the nearby greenskins while waiting for the stronghold to be successfully built.
The stronghold was quickly built, everyone moved into the stronghold, and then used the defensive weapons on the wall to fire on the greenskins.
Those defensive weapons are all energy weapons made from rings. A portable energy device carried by Qin Xia provides energy for these weapons and the entire stronghold.
What was ultimately placed in the stronghold was a creature with power equal to that of the Soulless One.
The greenskins are originally psychic creatures. They will hate this kind of creation, but they will still approach the stronghold under control, and then the connection with the controller will be cut off, and they will eventually become indifferent to the stronghold. What a threat.
“The ancient creations in your hands are very strong.”
"I'm a little confused, why do you still need us to come here to assist you?"
Dantioch stood outside the shooting point, changing ammunition for the bolter in his hand, and asked Qin Xia at the same time.
"Because, including me, the people of the Twelve Legions are not as professional as you on how to defend the enemy." Qin Xia said, "Thank you for your help, and I will give you some answers next." Reward, and then you can choose to stay or return to the legion."
"Reward?" Stoker came up and asked, "Can I use the ring as reward?"
< br>Before Qin Xia could speak, Dantioch quickly looked at his best friend: "When you are hungry, I will help you get a meal, and then you give me your life, okay."
"Nothing is wrong," Stoker said with a smile.
Dantioch gave Stoker a hard look.
Other people brought here by Dantioch had the same reaction.
In front of Qin Xia, a member of the 12th Army, all the Iron Warriors except Stoke himself felt that Stoke had disgraced the Fourth Army.
Qin Xia was already very helpless, and only had doubts in her heart, that is, she felt that Stoke's joining the Fourth Army was really an unlucky and inappropriate thing.
Stoker might be more suitable to join Guilliman's legion, or Rogal Dorn's legion.
Ultramarines or Imperial Fists.
Rogal Dorn is a very serious primarch, more serious than Dantioch and Perturabo, but this seriousness is not because he wants to turn himself into a cold person.
Purely in terms of temperament, Rogal Dorn and Perturabo are quite similar.
But Rogdorn has some humorous talent. Sometimes he will make everyone laugh by saying something casually, and paired with a serious and meticulous expression, it has a comedic effect.
And Guilliman is simply a humorous person.
Anyway, Stoker is an outlier among the Fourth Legion, but he is still everyone’s battle brother, a weapons master, a blacksmith, and a master builder, so there is no way to find a reason to put him He kicked.
"We are friendly forces. This operation is just a piece of cake. I have nothing to ask for, and I have nothing to ask for." Dantioch said.
"Do you want me to help you test whether this thing can be used?" Qin Xia pointed to the detection device embedded in Dantioch's arm.
Dantioch still had doubts, but after carefully recalling his previous experience, he had a judgment with an accuracy rate of about 80%: "Suddenly I remembered my previous experience. I once heard As for the words of the green-skinned creature that controls all green-skinned people, I think he should have appeared at that time, but the detector still didn’t respond at all.”
Qin Xia wants to say that this is not necessarily the case.
Dantioch had heard the voice of the psychic orc before. Qin Xia knew this because he heard it when he was teleported to the surface.
Just conveying a sound does not mean that the speaker of the sound must come to the scene.
After thinking for a while, Qin Xia suddenly patted Dantioch's arm: "Don't worry about this matter. It doesn't matter whether this thing works or not."
"No, it's very important." Dantioch shook his head, "If there are problems with the Lord of Steel's invention, then if we encounter a similar situation next time and he wants us to go down to die with a semi-finished product, then I will There is reason to refute him.”
Qin Xia looked helpless. He knew what would happen to Dantioch if he really refuted Perturabo, or directly attacked Perturabo.
That is, he was sent to another place by the furious Perturabo, and from then on he could no longer follow the legion to fight everywhere.
"You'd better not want to." Qin Xia advised.
Dantioch remained silent.
The people who can be brought by Dantioch are undoubtedly people who are ideologically close to Dantioch, whether intentionally or unintentionally, no matter what the purpose is, anyway, Pertura Bo let Men like Dantioch gathered together and rallied under Dantioch's command.
So when Dantioch said something to refute the Father of Genes, they would not have any extreme reaction.
“I suddenly thought of what I should ask you for.”
When everyone was silent, Dantioch suddenly spoke again.
Qin Xia immediately nodded and listened.
“A way to contact you anytime, anywhere.”
Dantioch took off his helmet, and on his steely face, a pair of bright eyes stared at Qin Xia.
"Actually, I want to say that I would rather contact the Lord of the Twelve Legions anytime and anywhere, but I know that is not worthy of being an ordinary soldier of the 4th Legion. I might as well contact you, as long as Being able to contact you means being able to contact the Lord of the Twelve Legions. "
"If something happens to the entire legion in the future, because the Lord of Steel insists on going his own way, it may eventually lead to a heavy price for the entire legion. I hope I can contact you and ask the Lord of the Twelve Legions to help."
"I know that there is only one person who can control the Lord of Steel, and that is the Lord of the Twelve Legions."
Dantioch said sincerely.
And Qin Xia agreed without hesitation: "Before our war with this galaxy ends, I will give you a creation that will allow you to easily contact me, no matter where we are."
Dantioch nodded slowly, accepting with some hesitation, thinking about other things in his mind.
Qin Xia looked at Dantioch. He felt that Dantioch was actually quite contradictory and complicated.
On the one hand, this warrior is definitely not a rebel, nor does he want to question or challenge the authority of the original body.
But he couldn't accept some of Perturabo's actions and couldn't sit idly by.
A reformist loyalist.
There is no way to completely hate Perturabo, and there is no way to completely trust Perturabo.
Psychologically, he was very disobedient to Perturabo, but he could not resolutely refuse when Perturabo gave him an order.
Just like on Novshendak 5, Dantioch complied with Perturabo's order to steal Angron's weapons, even though he was extremely reluctant.
It’s also quite awkward. "When you and I were chatting, you once said that you had established an organization called the Association for the Study of Human Trust History to collect relics and knowledge. You also asked me to help you pay attention to what you are looking for." Dantioch said, "Maybe I should Join this organization, and in return, I can give you some information about ancient relics and ancient knowledge. If I can directly find what you are interested in, I will also give you what you are interested in. ”
Qin Xia was very surprised to hear Dantioch suddenly mention the association.
Dantioch explained: "I know how difficult the Lord of Iron is to deal with, and I also know that he once really wanted to kill you and the Primarch you raised. We just helped you a little You are busy, but you are asking for a lot, so use this method to balance it."
"Okay." Qin Xia nodded.
Qin Xia never thought that the association he established to collect ancient relics and knowledge was originally just an organization established with a clever name, and the name was to deceive others.
Although it is indeed as the name says, it will indeed record and preserve the history of the Great Crusade, but this is not its main business after all...
Such an organization actually has an interstellar member of the Fourth Legion. Warriors join.
"Hiss... you reminded me."
Thinking about it, Qin Xia suddenly froze for a moment, and then immediately had a good idea.
The good idea is that since the main thing the association itself does has nothing to do with the name of the association, then why does it have to be limited to a single cause.
Why can't an association be an organization with many individuals participating, and participants can come from anywhere and be of any identity?
As long as everyone has the same purpose, can help each other, and has consistent interests.
Then this organization can grow even larger and help with a bigger thing.
For example, in order to deal with the Horus Heresy that may still occur in the future, find ways to recruit important loyalists from each legion to join the association.
Then at a future date, when a Primarch's corruption has become irreversible, an assassination attempt on that particular Primarch can be arranged through the Loyalist warriors who join the Society.
Or something like that.
For example, collecting evidence of the Legion's depravity to alert the empire's top officials, such as organizing and mobilizing loyalists in advance to prevent loyalists from being quickly purged after the Legion's depravity, and retaining the strength of the loyalists in a certain fallen legion.
What is even more important is to prevent the corruption of a legion or a primary body from the source.
Just like now.
Looking into Dantioch's eyes, Qin Xia thought that Angron's ability was the nemesis of the unreasonable Perturabo.
If Perturabo is a balloon that keeps inflating without letting others know that it is inflated, then Angron is a needle that can definitely find the balloon and deflate it.
And because of the existence of Angron, perhaps the entire Fourth Legion Iron Warriors, a large legion, and even the legion that was the main force of the rebels after the Horus Heresy, can avoid embarking on a path of no return. road.
Just like he had prevented Angron and the World Eaters Legion from embarking on a path of no return.
“Good idea.” Qin Xia immediately extended his palm to Dantioch, “But you really don’t need to help me find knowledge or relics as a supplement to the transaction conditions, because this is not at all A deal, no matter what, Angron will not watch the Lord of Steel become more and more cruel and unpredictable."
"Remember that some of you were about to be killed by Eleven. Did Angron stop the Lord of Steel with a flying kick? "
"He feels all the pain and struggle, so he will never sit idly by."
"..."
Hearing Qin Xia mention that Angrona saved six hundred people The Iron Warrior's kick made all the soldiers present stand more upright, and solemn expressions appeared on their faces under their helmets.
The warriors under Dantioch's command were all among the six hundred people who had been rescued by Angron.
Because of Angron's help, they were saved from doing such a ridiculous thing: nine people tore the limbs of a battle brother with their bare hands, took out the organs, and completed the tithe.
"Then it's settled," said Dantioch.
Qin Xia nodded again.
After looking around, Dantioch frowned and asked: "What is the purpose of this stronghold?"
"It is like a research station in the death world that specializes in studying the environment of the death world." Qin Xia said, "But my arrangement for this is a weapons testing station. Some powerful weapons will be tested here."
"In the face of psychic energy, are those powerful weapons really effective?" Dantio Grams recalled the prophecy about never using live ammunition extermination weapons to attack a planet.
"I'm talking about a psychic weapon, so of course it's effective." Qin Xia took out the pocket universe generator he had previously obtained in the Ark World. "This is a means of breaking the situation. When the emperor really arrives and personally leads the army to attack, Before the enemy, we still have a way that may be able to change the direction of the war."
Dantioch did not recognize the alien creation in Qin Xia's hands.
He and the other Iron Warriors present just saw Qin Xia put his hand into a strange device, touched it twice, and then shook the device in his hand, and a bunch of weapons were dumped out.
Perhaps it is some kind of ancient Nucerian technology, some kind of wisdom of human ancestors. Dantioch thought so, so he didn't wonder what was going on with the creation in Qin Xia's hand that could store weapons much larger than the device itself.
Compared to the ring that can shape objects at will, this device for storing things is not amazing if you don’t know what principle it uses.
"Conventional weapons are used to deal with psychic creatures. They are much more effective against the green-skinned bosses wearing armor than explosive bombs."
Qin Xia will use a weapon that looks similar to explosive bombs. The gun weapon is on display for everyone to see.
Then he picked up a one-meter-long heavy weapon.
"Armor-piercing weapons are very effective against creatures that use psychic defense methods."
"..."
The Iron Warriors picked up their weapons and looked at them.
One of them asked: "If the greenskins launch an offensive here, can these weapons allow this place to be easily defended?"
"Of course not, these are just experimental products." Qin Xia Shaking his head, "This stronghold is still useful... I also have other ways to protect this place that is completely impossible to break through."
The method Qin Xia mentioned was Soulless.
The super soulless civilian who was rescued during the war was the guy who directly sank a green-skinned warship with his soulless talent.
It would be more convenient to bring the soulless man here directly, because the green skin really has no way to harm the soulless man.
But the problem is that the soulless man really can’t be brought over.
Previously, this guy was placed on the lowest level of the White Knight. Then when dealing with the Eldar Prophet, the bow of the White Knight was penetrated and demons infiltrated into the ship.
The soulless man was so frightened at that time that he probably ran to an inaccessible place, because the sailors on the lower deck had not seen the soulless man.
The battleship is too huge, and it is not easy to find a missing person in the ancient areas on the lower deck that may not have been visited for hundreds of years, but the captain and think tanks are already trying their best to find it.
Qin Xia can only wait and do other things while waiting, such as what she is doing now.
