Warhammer: Black Emperor

Chapter 36 Boarding the Ship
After Kaminsky left, Nimrod waited for Howard.

"My Lord, I have begun to fully promote the system of the Khanty-Mansi Dome in the Lower Nest. Soon the Lower Nest will be completely transformed."

Nimrod said appreciatively after hearing the briefing.

"Well done. You must also seize the formation of the Fifth Regiment. Your future is not as an arbitrator."

"As you command, my lord."

"You must also keep an eye out and discover the talents within the regiment in preparation for the next expansion."

Nimrod made the same request to all the captains. When he returned to Vostronia, he would launch a new round of military expansion and completely conquer the world.

"The defense of Tezwok is also entrusted to you. Buxa will assist you in this regard."

In the newly conquered Mazovian and Stettin areas, the Magdans were more literary and less willing to resist, so Nimrod handed both nests over to Rollslev and his First Regiment.

"My Lord, I will guard Tezwok for you and await your return."

After Howard left, Rosicky brought dozens of servitors and delivered the armor.

The mechanical servants stepped on the mechanical supports and put on black armor for Ningluo.

"King Nimrod, does the armor fit you?"

Rosicky, who still retained most of his human features and only had an artificial eye implanted, wisely focused the scanning range on Nimrod's appearance data and armor.

Ningluo's body flashed and appeared at the palace gate, then returned to where he had just stood. His speed was so fast that Rosicky's optical scanner only flashed for a moment.

"Not bad, it fits."

"Sir, Sage Kaminsky has ordered me to accompany you in your campaign against the alien pirates."

"Go prepare the aircraft. I'll be leaving in one standard hour."

Tezwok only had aircraft for his use at low altitudes, and no vehicles to support his high-altitude flight.

One Terran hour later, Nimrod, Maria and three other assassins, boarded the transport ship he had transferred from the star port under the guidance of Rosicky.

Lukopo Hive, Upper Hive Palace.

Nimrod first summoned Szesne to receive a briefing.

"My Lord, Thierry has faithfully followed your orders to form a second regiment."

"He used his prestige and influence to cooperate with Murawski to maintain order. I believe he is truly loyal to you."

Ningluo nodded slightly. If Thierry had any ulterior motives, the time he was away would be his best opportunity.

"How is your Fourth Regiment being formed?"

"My Lord, the Fourth Regiment has been formed and requests to accompany you on the expedition."

"In that case, you will immediately lead the Fourth Regiment aboard the Piszczek."

Szczesny was overjoyed. After becoming a "sailor", he always wanted to work for Nimrod and repay his trust. Now the opportunity finally came.

"As you wish."

He began to speak using the grammar he had just learned from the rhetoric book.

After Szczesny left, Nimrod immediately turned on the communicator and sent a message to Thierry.

"Come see me at the palace."

Nimrod walked up to Thierry and spread out the red potion on his palm.

Thierry hesitated for three seconds, [You mainly want to kill me, there's no need to go through so much trouble.]
He knew he had to drink it, so he gritted his teeth, picked up the potion, and drank it.

Ten minutes later, Thierry's carapace, which had originally fit him well, was almost bursting. After mastering meditation and clairvoyance under Nimrod's guidance, he slowly and carefully knelt down.

"My king, thank you for your gift."

"I'm about to go to the starry sea to fight the aliens, and I'll leave Lukepo to you to guard." Ningluo asked Thierry to be trained as a "warrior" in order to further improve the strength of his top combat force.

Lukepo is different from the other three remote nests. It is surrounded by many heroes, and there is no guarantee that no one will have any intention of plotting against him when he goes out to fight.

Thierry felt a little disappointed that he did not get the opportunity to follow Nimrod in the war, but he also felt trusted when he was entrusted with the important task of guarding the largest and most prosperous of the four hive cities.

"My king, I will defend Lukopo to the death and will never betray your trust."

The third person Nimrod summoned was Wojciech Belik. He had heard the sound of water vibrating in the box carried by the craftsmen, and he had already guessed something.

"It seems that you have achieved results?"

"My king, I have researched a waterproof glue that can be applied to melee weapons like chainsaw swords. After four hours of drying, it can last for eight working cycles without rusting."

He said, opening the lid of one of the chests and pulling out a chainsword.

"Please allow me to demonstrate for you."

"let's start."

The chainsaw sword started, water droplets splashed together, and Wojciech chopped off the head of an iron puppet.

He put the chainsword down and continued.

"For long-range weapons, I've only completed the modification of the laser gun."

"Among them, the most critical part is the energy box. In addition to the waterproof coating, I also used vacuum injection to prevent water from seeping in."

"Using this method, the maximum continuous immersion time is one working cycle, after which vacuum injection needs to be repeated."

Ninglu saw him take out a laser spear from the water tank, and without wiping it, he immediately shot it, blowing up the other puppet's head.

"Yes, take your men and materials and go to the starport to wait."

The last person Nimrod summoned was Murawski.

"My king, I am distributing the grain that once belonged to the Piontkovsky family and is now your property, as you commanded."

"The upper nest has temporarily returned to normal, but this is not a long-term solution and is expected to last only a month."

"I'm about to go on a campaign against the alien pirates, and the food problem will be solved in a short time."

Upon hearing this, Murawski felt the pressure on his shoulders greatly relieved. He believed that the mighty King Nimrod would definitely be able to defeat the alien pirates.

"May my king's journey be successful and the aliens be defeated!"

After receiving the report from Thierry and Wojciech, Nimrod took Maria and the other two to the helipad of the Nest Tower and boarded the transport ship.

The transport ship carrying Nimrod slowly rose, and Luke Wave was rapidly shrinking.

There are three starports in Vostronia, all controlled by the servants of Om Messiah.

Nimrod did not want to anger the Mechanicus, so he occupied the three spaceships only after obtaining the keys.

For him, three spaceships are enough now.

After seizing the alien spaceship, he believed that the Mechanicus would be interested in alien technology such as advanced artillery suspected to be aether cannons, so he agreed to jointly develop and build a large warship for him.

Although the Emperor had signed the Pact of Olympus with Mars in 739.M30, the Great Crusade's fleet had not yet arrived in Vostroya, and the local Mechanicum would not miss this opportunity.

Since the "Dark Age of Technology", the Adeptus Mechanicus and numerous warlords across the galaxy have used technology with impunity.

Nimrod also knew that the fundamental reason for the civil war on Mars in the future would be the dissatisfaction of the forces headed by the forging commander Kelbor-Ha with the restrictions they were subject to.

The Mechanicus distributed the spaceships of the thirty-three hive cities equally to three starports for docking and management according to their number.

The four hive cities controlled by Nimrod were all assigned the Krakow Starport.

After Ningluo boarded the ship, he immediately went to the strategic room on the bridge.
