Chapter 98 War with Necrons (Subscription required)

  Anna spoke so confidently that many council members looked at each other in dismay.

  The planetary governor also showed a hint of interest.

   "Then I'd like to see what you can do?"

  Anna smiled, "Leave this matter to me, and I promise that within a week, those damned bugs will start a rebellion. And they will be considered absolute heretics by the state church and the court."

   "You can speak your mind. We will do it after consideration." A congressman said indifferently.

   "This plan can only be implemented by myself, and if you do this, it will only make the situation worse."

  Anna looked at the congressman.

   "If you don't want to leave it to me to do it, then I can only say sorry."

   "You want power?" said the governor.

"This world is very dangerous. I don't want to be eaten to the bone. If you can't do it, I will help you. If within a week, I don't make those bottom bugs rebel, then I lose Now, all my wealth is at your disposal."

   "If I succeed, I want to have my seat here.

  Anna looked at the planetary governor.

  Her tone was extremely crazy, and she wanted to fight for a member of parliament with all her wealth.

  In the hall, after hearing Anna's words, many members of the council started discussing.

  They all looked at Anna with the eyes of a madman.

   In their opinion, this woman has gone crazy.

   It's a stupid thing to use the rest of your life's good life to fight for a seat in a congressman.

"Okay. Just as you said, I will sign the action order for you." The planetary governor stood up and looked around at the many congressmen, "If anyone of you wants to object, you can raise it now, as long as the method you provide is better than hers. "

  The words of the planetary governor made many members of the council look at each other.

   None of them could do it any better.

  The same is true for those congressmen who hate Anna.

   "You have gained power, but you only have one week, and I don't like to see you fail," said the planetary governor.

   "No, Governor, I am confident."

  Anna smiled.

  She already had a plan.

  Old and holy Terra, there was an old saying well said.

   Be greedy when others are fearful.

  Crisis hides great opportunity.

  The emergence of gene stealers is definitely a terrible crisis for Vittoria.

   But this may be the key opportunity for her to enter the imperial political arena.

  Anna looked at the many congressmen, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

   This is just the beginning.

  She will climb up little by little, and climb to the top step by step.

   Become an existence that makes everyone frightened and flattered.

  Anna is a descendant of a nobleman, of course this is only a superficial statement.

   Actually she is not.

   She is just a descendant of commoners.

  The noble lady gave birth to a mutant, in order to protect the family's reputation.

  The nobles had no choice but to exchange their children to prove that there was no problem with their family.

  In an empire, no matter how corrupt the bureaucracy is, that's fine.

  Humans are always the main theme, and mutants and aliens are absolutely hated.

  Once a mutant species appears in a family, it is likely to attract the attention of the State Church and the Tribunal.

  For a family, the occurrence of mutant species in the offspring is definitely a terrible crisis.

   represents that the family blood has been polluted.

  Slightly manipulated by hostile forces, you may even be deprived of everything.

  The purity of human blood is an issue that every noble family must pay attention to.

   It is precisely because of this that Anna replaced the mutated child and became a noble child.

  But the nobles don't like Anna, especially after they have a new child, they hate Anna even more.

  Anna also learned the ins and outs of this incident from an accident.

  Parents' discrimination against her doesn't have any deep meaning, it's just that she is not their child.

  In order to conceal the mutation of the family descendants, the nobleman also killed Anna's biological parents.

  After learning the truth, Anna could no longer bear the discrimination and abuse from her adoptive parents.

  She designed to kill the other party, as well as the other party's biological child.

   It is a matter of course to inherit everything from that noble family.

   And found her current husband with the help of means, and climbed up step by step.

   After confirming that her husband no longer loves her, Anna decisively killed him again.

   By the way, he killed Xiao San, and sent someone to kill Xiao San's child.

   Then she entrusted Shure to find her daughter.

   That daughter is actually Xiaosan's daughter.

  Anna admits that she is a vicious, unscrupulous woman in order to climb up.

   But in this chaotic, hopeless universe, malevolence is not a crime, but a virtue.

  Anna's wish is to climb to the highest position one day.

  Let those who once thought her lowly be unattainable.

  Veteria is her springboard, not her end.

  One day, a brand new star will rise and become one of the most powerful people in the empire.

  ….

   The cold void of eternal darkness.

  Tyran's hive fleet is drifting forward with the help of the superluminal channel built by the gravitational field of the universe.

  If you stand on the vast scale of the universe, people will be surprised to find that the Hive Fleet seems to have never moved.

  After all, the distance between the stars is too long.

   Even flying at the speed of light, it usually takes several years, decades, to cross this long distance.

  Using the unit of kilometers that humans can best understand to measure the distance between two stars is undoubtedly a very stupid thing.

   That would be a string of unimaginable numbers.

   Stand on the scale of the universe.

  The Tyranid fleet needs long-term observation to see that they are moving.

  The biological mothership, as huge as a celestial body, glides in the cosmic force field with the help of superlight inertia.

   Most of the biological mothership has fallen into a deep sleep, only a small number of tentacles are still active, monitoring the surrounding environment for the mother.

  In the body of the mothership, most of the Zerg have also fallen asleep.

   Sleeping ensures that they can travel across the vast distances between the stars with minimal effort.

  When it is close to food, the mothership will wake up, awaken a large number of war units, and devour everything that can be seen.

  Beside the mothership, there are also a large number of biological ships, which are also sleeping.

   Only a few ships are awake.

  Using biological energy, they separated from the main fleet and sailed to different star worlds, becoming the vanguard of the Tyranid Zerg and detecting the surrounding environment for the large force.

   Allow the Great Devourer to better determine the order of devouring.

  There are also some spore clouds that are also blown by the cosmic wind, and slowly spread out, and they are thrown to all parts of the galaxy like sowing seeds.

  The last world the Tyranids passed through was an agricultural world.

   They devour everything above.

  Including 35 billion humans and everything on that planet.

  All life was turned into the simplest genetic material by the Tyranids and stored in the huge hive fleet.

  The genetic material will turn into more monsters, more killing machines.

  Right now, they are still sleeping, waiting for the feast to come.

  The Glory of Macragge.

   After successfully disposing of the orc warlord-arsonist and holding a huge banquet.

   This Queen of Glory class battleship has returned to the state of war again.

  In today's galaxy, only war is the main theme.

   Chapter servants come and go in the battleship.

  They perform routine maintenance on the Chapter's weapons and armor.

   Mechanical priests and technical experts repair and inspect the power armor of the soldiers.

  They need to complete this work before the next war comes.

  The crew, officers, and heads of various departments are processing and monitoring the information of this battleship every day.

   Make sure it's always at its peak.

  Able to enter the battlefield with the most ferocious posture, tearing apart all human enemies.

  The tall strategy room hummed and vibrated.

   The thick and heavy cables winding on the ceiling surged with energy.

   The reading meter was spinning wildly.

   There is the thud of heavy machinery running beneath the floorboards.

  Huge metal projections spread throughout the strategic room, making the entire room in a faint twilight.

   Guilliman sat in his seat, listening to reports from Calgar and other heroes of the empire.

  The threat of the orcs has been eliminated, but the Charadon sector has not yet completely settled down.

   Necrons and the upcoming Tyranids are both heavyweight challenges for the Charadon Sector.

"The mechanical priests are repairing the Colossus of Heaven's Punishment, because when they entered the Gorod galaxy before, they encountered the gravitational pull of the stars, which caused a part of the gravity device to fail, causing it to be pulled by the gravitational forces of the stars, and malfunctioned to varying degrees. In the short term, There is no way to put it into use."

   Calgar spoke first.

  He said the situation is not very good.

   As the strongest hole card of the Imperial Navy today, the Colossus of God's Punishment.

   Only one shot was fired from beginning to end, and it was urgently repaired.

   Somewhat stretched hips.

   But it's normal to think about it.

   After all, it is a giant structure assembled in an emergency, and it is normal for problems to occur.

  The Colossus of God's Wrath can be put into use so quickly.

  First: Guilliman and Kaur have already drawn up a complete blueprint.

   There are no technical difficulties, only construction is required according to the drawings.

  Second: Thanks to the excellent craftsmanship of each foundry world, the parts produced by these foundry worlds have passed the test.

  Only in this way can the Colossus of God's Punishment be built quickly and be able to play a role.

   As long as any part is stretched, it may be blown up directly.

  Although the Mechanicus has lost the ambition to forge ahead, their obsession with the soul of the machine has made them paranoid in the field of mechanical quality.

   Mistakes and deviations are unimaginable humiliation for them.

   To accuse a Mechanic Priest of his mistakes is the worst possible curse on him.

   It is precisely because of the many high-quality parts provided by the foundry world that the Colossus of God's Punishment can be pieced together at the fastest speed.

   "It doesn't matter, it's just an experimental product, just collect the relevant data." Guilliman didn't care too much about the problem with the Colossus of Punishment.

  Practice Xixi's approach, don't have too high demands on quality.

  Anyway, these cheap goods can still be made without them, so what are you afraid of.

   What you want is quantity.

  Even if you can't fire the cannon, you have to pile up the number of enemies to kill them.

   It's time to fight, no matter whether it can be used or not, even if you make up the number, you have to make up hundreds of times more than the opponent.

  Create a giant structure like the Colossus of God's Punishment.

   The most important thing is not to harvest these structures, but to increase industrial productivity.

  Technology, the most difficult thing is just the technology.

  Once the technology is mature and the industrial assembly line is formed, building a warship is like making dumplings.

   Swish Swish, as if you don't want money.

  Industrial capacity is improved, operations are full, just close your eyes and pass A.

   What is important is to break through all methods with one force.

   Regarding the Imperial Navy, Guilliman did not intend to take a sophisticated path.

   According to the trend of chaos corrupting people without incident.

   It is obviously inappropriate to take a sophisticated path.

  The imperial navy needs more ships and more guns.

   Even if you smash a ship, you have to beat your opponent.

  Guilliman even thought about hollowing out asteroids and meteorites.

  Engines, reactors, cannons, and shields are installed inside, which can be used as battleships.

  If the enemy takes one, then you can take a hundred of them yourself, and pile them up to kill them.

   What I want is cheap and solid.

  In today's space and sea battles, the most important thing is to increase the firepower.

   Only when the firepower is fierce enough, can there be a chance to overload the enemy's shield.

  The shield is overloaded, no matter how strong the opponent's hull is, it cannot withstand the bombardment of two rounds of artillery.

  In today's void sea battle, different races have their own energy shield technology.

  Empires generally use void shields, this wonderful shield can divert attacks to subspace.

  As long as the enemy's attack does not overload the void shield, the attack will always be diverted into the warp.

   It can be said that the defense of the void shield is much stronger than that of the ship.

  In the most tragic Terra defense battle that the empire has ever experienced, the emperor's palace resisted the bombardment of tens of thousands of warships by virtue of the aegis.

  According to the historical records left at that time, we can get a glimpse of how terrifying the earth-shattering offensive and defensive battle was.

  With the help of the subspace gods and the huge sacrificial ceremony, the traitor ships led by Horus ignored the gravity of the stars and directly appeared in the inner domain of the solar system.

  The Shanzhen was forced to evacuate, forming a pattern in which Horus surrounded Terra and the solar system fleet surrounded Horus.

   Horus' fleet occupies all orbits of Terra.

   Countless cannons and lights fell at every moment, bombarding the palace day and night.

   But relying on the defense system built by the Aegis, the palace blocked this terrible bombardment.

  From the siege of Terra to the end of Horus' defeat.

   One can imagine how strong Aegis is.

  If there is no Aegis, I am afraid that the palace will disappear without a trace during the bombing on the first day.

  In today's naval battles, unless high-density materials like neutron stars are used.

   Otherwise, the difference between using steel and stone for the hull is not that big.

  Once the void shield is overloaded, no matter what material the warship is made of, it will inevitably die.

  The plasma launcher equipped on the battleship is as huge as a 300-meter-high building.

   Once the shot is fired, everything has to be melted away.

   In the face of anti-sniper rockets, is it meaningful to discuss which style of body armor? ?

  Navigation in the universe is really not as complicated as people think.

   There was once a science fiction novel that described such a scene.

  A group of refugees used ice to build a starship, used this starship to escape from prison, and established a new country.

  Although it is science fiction, it also has some truth.

  It is not impossible to use ice to build a starship.

  The universe is frictionless.

   That is to say, once the acceleration is completed, the battleship will move at that inertial speed, and there will be no such thing as tearing due to being unable to withstand high-speed flight.

  The earth rotates at a high speed every day, and no one on it flies out.

   Hypergravity will only be generated when the battleship accelerates.

  Once the acceleration is complete, after entering the inertial movement, the supergravity disappears.

   During inertial flight, it is impossible for the hull to collapse.

  The forces acting on every part of the hull are balanced, how could it disintegrate? ?

  Some things seem absurd, but when the truth is stripped away, it is found that the absurdity is the subtlety of the universe.

  The warships of the orcs are pieced together, and some warships even rushed into space by burning coal.

   Among them, it is natural to rely on the help of the power of WAAAGH.

  However, the technology of the orcs themselves should not be underestimated.

  Those seemingly absurd places are actually nothing more than the human empire's ignorance of the direction of its technological development.

  General nuclear fusion reactions use light elements such as hydrogen and helium.

   These elements are the most abundant in stars.

  Other elements are basically light elements that undergo high heat and high pressure to form second-type elements.

  Iron, gold, these elements have experienced the destruction and birth of stars many times, and then they were born under high pressure and high temperature.

  If the orcs' tech tree is lit up with heavy element nuclear fusion, then their battleships will be extremely normal to burn coal.

  Carbon is not a metal element, so it is not as difficult to fuse it as metal elements, but the energy released is far more than that of light elements.

  The principle of fusion is to use high temperature and high pressure to fuse atoms into a brand new atom, and the lost mass will be converted into energy.

  The more mass lost, the more energy released.

  The number of electrons in metal atoms has basically stabilized. Except for the need to manufacture special materials, metal atom fusion is rarely used.

  Basically, the gains outweigh the losses.

  The coal burning of the orcs is actually using the carbon element in it for fusion reaction, so as to obtain energy to propel the warship.

  WAAAGH can assist the orcs to erase the rules of distorted physics and help them ignore some technical details.

   As long as the general structure is good, it can be used.

   But this does not deny the development of orc technology.

  Some things are absurd, but the universe operates according to this absurd principle.

   You can't think that one thing is absurd, and you think the other party is fake.

  What we think is normal is only what we think.

  In the interstellar era, not everything looks tall and full of sci-fi.

  Interstellar battlefield is the pursuit of practicality, not sci-fi.

  Inlaid some glass with some circuits to create a variety of gorgeous patterns, creating a sense of technology.

   It looks really tall, but what's the use of that? ?

   Besides making some face projects, what else can you do? ?

   Such a tall man can't even block a bullet.

  Guilliman doesn't have the problem of formalism, what he wants is practicality.

   "Is there any other news?" Guilliman asked.

  We have collected some information about the Necromancer dynasty here. According to our investigation, there are two Necron dynasties located around the Charlaton star area, one is called the Sotai Dynasty, this dynasty was awakened 1,000 years ago, and the other is called the Saken Dynasty, which was awakened 1,500 years ago of. "

  "After the Saken dynasty woke up, it launched an attack on multiple imperial worlds, causing a large number of casualties. Then they failed to attack Obelias and fell into a short silence."

"It wasn't until the Suotai Dynasty recovered that they continued to be active, but their current goal is no longer the empire, but the Suotai Dynasty. The Saken Dynasty seems to want to control the Suotai Dynasty, so the two sides have been constantly breaking out conflicts ."

  "The empire has never intervened, but has allowed the two space undead forces to keep fighting and let them consume each other."

  The intelligence director opened the information interface, and introduced to Guilliman about another threat in the Charadon sector—space undead.

  Guilliman tapped on his desktop, listening to the information given by the intelligence chief, and thinking about how to deal with the threat of the space undead.

  The Necrons are a race that fought against the Old Ones.

   What's even more frightening is that they even backstabbed the Star God.

  The only race in the galaxy with a definite history of killing gods.

  The most terrible thing is that they have mastered the most cutting-edge technology in the galaxy.

   Those technologies were given to them by the star gods, and they are extremely powerful.

  With the help of the star gods, they have mastered many mysterious knowledge such as time, space, and dimension.

   It has reached a level of technology that is almost divine.

   It is indeed not an easy task to fight against the Necrons.

  The uncrowned king of the Necrons, the head of the Trinity Council - the Silent King has returned from outside the galaxy.

  Once Guilliman destroys those dynasties of the Necrons of Space, it will inevitably prompt the uncrowned king to speed up the pace of awakening the dynasties of the Necrons of Space.

   At that time, Guilliman may be facing the heavily armed Necron Dynasty.

  That is definitely a terrible nightmare that no civilization is willing to face.

  Even if the Necrons have been sleeping for 60 million years.

   But their technological strength is still the strongest.

   This is undeniable.

  They have all kinds of incredible technological creations.

   Can easily create black holes, annihilate stars, and reverse time.

  Of course, they will not use these terrible weapons casually.

   After all, once the celestial bodies and time in the galaxy are disturbed, they will also suffer greatly.

   But once a brutal war breaks out, and once the two sides are fighting each other, it will be difficult to ensure that the Necrons will not go to extremes.

  In order to kill the Old Sage, they sold their flesh and soul to the Star God.

  Ghost knows what terrible things they will do to kill humans.

   You must be fully prepared to fight against the Necrons.

  Guilliman tapped on the table, his brows were furrowed, and he was comparing the strength of the human empire and the Necrons in his mind.

  Once the war starts, he will definitely destroy the two space undead dynasties.

   But in that case, it also means that a full-scale war may break out between the human empire and the space undead.

   After all, his identity is here.

   represents the entire human race, the entire empire.

  As the head of the Trinity Council, it is impossible for the Silent King to remain unresponsive.

   "My lord, what is our next plan?"

   After the intelligence director finished his introduction, Calgar looked at the Primarch and asked.

   There is a science fiction novel, What Happened to the Galaxy, I forgot, and this is how it is introduced.

  (end of this chapter)
