Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 224 Big Deliciousness

The main mission of this exploration fleet under Roche is not to destroy aliens; destroying aliens is just a habit.

A species that has just learned to use tools and use fire to cook food is so fragile that it doesn't even take any serious warfare to destroy its population.

After all, this is a planet suitable for carbon-based life, and from the moment it was discovered, it has become a precious asset of the Five Hundred Worlds.

It would belong to the Imperium of Man, one of the new worlds added to the Five Hundred that would come under Guilliman's wing.

And these aliens that have occupied this place will be completely eliminated. Except for a string of record data in the exploration fleet's log database, no one will know that some blue-skinned aliens were born here.

The Mechanicus's Bio-Magnus used tractor beams to capture dozens of xenomorph specimens, and they also commissioned the White Scars to capture xenomorphs of different origins in various regions of the planet and conduct in-depth anatomical research on their respective laboratory tables.

Anatomy is the most effective and quickest way to understand a species. Their unique organ tissues can reveal the secrets of genes and discover these alien characteristics in the most rational way.

The research results surprised everyone even more. The body shapes of these blue aliens were highly similar to those of humans. They had four fingers on their hands, hooves on their feet, and their skin was extremely rough and tough in order to adapt to the harsh living environment.

This kind of skin cannot evaporate water and remove heat like human sweat glands, and the olfactory organs that disappeared on the unusually flat face actually grow in the mouth and are not exposed to the outside air.

What surprised Roche was their long and wide visual organs. They were all born farsighted and had extraordinary vision at long distances, far beyond the maximum distance that humans could observe.

However, their special physiological structure makes them quite poor in dynamic vision, which means that if they are caught in close combat, their eyes will not even have time to zoom and capture the enemy's trace.

In addition, the physical strength of this alien is extremely weak. The low gravity of the planet means that they do not need too many bones and muscles to support their bodies. Captain Gantula of the White Scars figuratively calls them reeds in the storm.

If these aliens came to other planets, I'm afraid the gravity on those planets would be enough to crush them completely.

The exploration fleet stayed on the planet code-named DX-114 for a week. During this time, almost all members of the White Scars, Ultramarines and Space Wolves were dispatched to destroy most of the blue-skinned aliens on the planet in a dimensionality reduction attack.

"They are too weak to even inspire the slightest interest in hunting."

After a brief and enjoyable hunt, the White Scar warriors piloting the Tengu mechas soon fell into boredom. These aliens were too fragile and posed no threat at all to the Space Marines who were armed to the teeth.

When the Sky Dogs tore through the clouds and descended with terrifying sonic booms, the alien race, who were still in the primitive society, were completely unable to understand this power.

The Chogorians have always had the habit of hunting powerful enemies and bringing their heads back to their home planet to hang as decorations, but when faced with these aliens, no White Scar warrior chose to do so.

The reason is simple. There is no honor in hunting their heads, and the pride of Chagatai's sons does not allow them to do such a pretentious act.

Relying on the high mobility of the Tengu, Guntura led his Chogorius Air Cavalry to sweep away the vast majority of the aliens, and his efficiency even exceeded that of the Extreme Marines whose numbers were several times theirs.

As for the Space Wolves, Faffnir also had no interest in hunting such weak creatures, but the alpha wolf discovered other hidden characteristics of these aliens.

That is... their meat is extremely delicious.

"Brother Guntura, are you sure you don't want to taste the flesh of these aliens? Although it lacks chewiness, drinking their blood gives me the same pleasant feeling as drinking Fenris honey wine."

"Brother Hill, stop what you're doing. You need some fresh Titanium steak to replenish your strength. You're too skinny, nowhere near as strong as the men of Fenris." "Brother Nikonna, when did you get behind me? I couldn't even detect you with my nose. Come on, come on, I've figured out a new way to eat you."

The extremely harsh natural environment of Fenris has shaped the Fenrisians' fine habit of never wasting food, and this characteristic has not changed at all even after becoming Space Wolves.

After slaughtering a group of aliens that lived in the plains and learned to hunt nomadic beasts, Faffnir and his hunting group tried to eat the flesh of these aliens.

The wolves tried to extract some useful memories from these brain-poor aliens.

Because these blue-skinned bastards would make screams similar to "titanium" before they died, Faffnir named them the titanium tribe after himself, and this name quickly spread among the exploration fleet, even replacing the serious official name given to the alien by the biological sages.

As the person who named the Titanium Alien, Faffnar created several ways to eat Titanium Alien, among which frying, cooking and grilling all have their own flavors.

Of course, the Ultramarines would prefer to clean these aliens and process them into standardized "titanium cans", but Faffnar claims that this behavior is as boring as those cobalt blue Ultramarines.

"These aliens are actually quite adaptable. Each natural landscape has its own traces of life. The Titanium people living in the plains are taller and stronger, and their flesh is firmer."

"The Titanium people who have been active in the mountains have evolved their bodies to be lighter and more flexible in order to adapt to the environment. Their taste is very ordinary, and I don't like them very much."

"Lord Luo Xi, don't you really want to try it? I guarantee you will be full of praise after eating it."

Faffnar became more and more diligent in selling his skills to Roche. When not in combat, the alpha wolf of the Space Wolves was actually more like some kind of ancient creature called a Husky.

Faffnar, who was becoming increasingly addicted to the flesh and blood of the Tau, enthusiastically tried to sell Roxi some freshly-made canned Tau food, but Roxi just frowned and politely declined the Fenrisian's enthusiastic invitation.

Roche suspected that these wolves were not completely unable to endure Guilliman's pressure, but were simply bored of staying in Macragge and found a reason to come out to relieve their boredom.

Or maybe he was just greedy.

Compared to these unrestrained Space Marines, he was not interested in the Tau, an alien race that was somewhat similar to humans, with limbs and humanoid heads, let alone eating their flesh and blood.

As for the Astartes, it doesn't matter at all. Their genetic detection nerves need to read the memory by absorbing the enemy's blood, internal organs or brain tissue. Preying on the enemy's flesh and blood is a common and basic operation.

The Emperor had this plan in mind when he created these genetically modified warriors.

The most famous legion for devouring the flesh and blood of its enemies is the 9th Legion, the Blood Angels. Before the noble and holy Archangel returned to the legion, the 9th Legion was a notorious legion of ghouls.

The gene seed of the Blood Angels causes their genetic detection nerves to be overdeveloped. They will kill and eat their enemies in battle, and even their dead comrades will be eaten by them, and their memories and experiences will be read.

There are rumors that the Blood Angels can read the thoughts and emotions of the dead through genetic detection nerves, and allow these Astartes whose emotions have been suppressed due to genetic enhancement surgery to feel emotional touch again.

This behavior, which even the Astartes felt was excessive, made the 9th Legion an unpopular symbol in the past, and few legions were willing to fight alongside these ghoulish cousins.

Roshi was originally reluctant to meddle in the Space Wolves' little hobbies, until a vicious incident finally made him furious.
