Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 170 Preparing to Go to the Comic Convention

Considering his mental state, Chen Xi decided to take a few days off.

This decision was not made on impulse, but was the result of careful consideration.

Recently, although his and his friends' adventures in the 40k world have been full of excitement and fun, the high-intensity and high-pressure environment has also kept their spirits tense.

In particular, the cruelty and oppression of the 40k world gradually eroded their psychological defenses. Chen Xi realized that if this continued, it might have an irreversible impact on their mental health.

After informing my friends of this decision, they also expressed their support and approval.

Everyone seemed to feel the same pressure and expressed their desire for rest.

"Let's be honest. While adventures in 40k are certainly fun and cats are adorable, I still prefer the cats here. At least they're warm and meow." 32's comments were still full of her strong personal style. "The robot cats in 40k are cool, sure, but I always feel like they're missing something."

Her words resonated with everyone. After all, in the world of 40k, even cats are cold mechanical creations. Although they have powerful functions, they lack that kind of warm vitality.

Guterres also expressed his opinion: "I also think we should stop for a while. I always feel that we have been greatly affected by that side recently. We all need to slow down and not jump into the cesspool on our own initiative." Although his words were straightforward, they hit the nail on the head.

The world of 40k is full of darkness and despair. If you are not careful, you may be swallowed by that negative emotion.

"Let the smell go, okay? Otherwise, the old man Huang will smell the smell from using his shit pot." Mai Mai complained, causing everyone to laugh.

Although her tone was lighthearted, everyone understood that behind her words was her true feelings about the oppressive atmosphere of the 40k world.

"Don't mention it. I think we should take a good rest. 40k is too intense and everyone is under a lot of pressure." Dusk also sighed, and then suggested: "I know there's a comic convention coming soon. How about we go to the convention and relax?"

Her proposal immediately received positive responses from everyone.

"I believe what 32 and Guterres say about the pressure, but you two... aren't you so happy squeezing the succubus out of you that you don't want to leave?" Chen Xi joked, then agreed to Twilight's suggestion. "But as for comic conventions, you can definitely go and have some fun. It's good to relax and watch some 40D girls. k is that shithole, all the pretty girls have arms that can run horses!"

His words caused everyone to laugh, but also revealed another problem in the 40k world - in that world, women mostly appear as strong and cold, lacking the soft and gentle two-dimensional girls of the 3k era.

(Sassy female officer)

In the 40k era, there are of course beautiful young ladies. The nuns of the State Religion are all very beautiful, and there are many very beautiful ones among them. They are not the abstract faces of GW chess pieces.

As for the imperial nobles, there are not many who are truly ugly. Many female nobles are famous for their looks. Even the female officers of the Astra Militarum have good looks.

However, in the world of 40k, women often need to be stronger and more ruthless than men in order to survive the brutal war.

But in 40k, a world where women are used as men, men are used as animals, and animals are used as machines, expecting some romantic and ambiguous stories to happen with a beautiful girl... Although it's really nothing when nothing happens, once you are noticed by Slaanesh, there is a famous pure love couple among the demons under Slaanesh's command. Slaanesh loves them so much that he even personally officiates their wedding.

The existence of this danger makes Chen Xi stay away from women in the 40k world.

(Syll'Esske, the famous Slaanesh Demon Prince)

(The Slaanesh demon symbolizing gluttony, although he and the pair above are both AOS, they can indeed be used in 40k)
And more importantly, the women Chen Xi can meet in 40k are either capable female nobles, or combat nuns with strong personal combat capabilities, or powerful women who have both.

Something happened with them... Chen Xi thought it was better to decline the offer. Although his XP included short-haired muscular tomboys, it didn't matter since she was expensive.

The soft and cute 3D girls of the 40k era do not exist at all in the k world.

This is also the reason why Chen Xi and his friends are so looking forward to the comic convention.

At the comic convention, they can temporarily escape the oppression and cruelty of 40k, return to the fantasy and beautiful two-dimensional world, and enjoy a moment of tranquility and relaxation.

So, everyone decided to put aside the 40k adventure for a while and go to the comic convention to find the long-lost relaxation and happiness.

"Speaking of which, should we cosplay when we go to the comic convention? We have the authentic 40k costumes and props, how about showing them off?" Dusk suddenly showed an expression that wanted to cause trouble.

Mai Mai, who was standing by, suddenly nodded in agreement. "Come to think of it, Chen Xi, I was dragged here because I wanted to borrow your Power Sword for the comic convention. I thought we could make something big! Like, a legitimate Star Force?"

"We're going to send out the Oil Man! I made myself a set of power armor that I can wear here, and it's just in time to come in handy!" 32 also joined in the fun and said that he had already made preparations.

"I think I can get the Ronin Trader's costume over here. It's sure to be eye-catching!" Mai Mai was also eager to try it out, and even gave 32 a bad idea: "By the way, 32, why don't you bring the cybernetic robot over here? Baymax's appearance will definitely stun the entire internet!"

"Great, great! We happen to have two Baymaxes. When we were talking with Kaul before, we only brought the Death-Extinguisher to keep things under control. Now it happens that..." 32 responded immediately, feeling the urge to show off.

However, Chen Xi immediately said angrily, "What the hell! Are you really not afraid of being reported and arrested? How are you going to explain bringing such an eye-catching thing to the comic convention? There's someone hiding in Dabai, right?
As long as someone takes a video and posts it online, you can expect the entire internet to know that you can travel through time! "

"Don't get angry, Chen Xi, we're just talking!" 32 saw Chen Xi was a little angry, and quickly calmed him down: "Some particularly eye-catching things must not be taken out, but some more 'realistic' props should still be okay, right?

When we first found your power sword, didn't we doubt it was real? We thought as long as we were careful, there wouldn't be any problems."

"Okay..." Chen Xi felt tired, but he didn't stop his friends. After thinking for a moment, he said, "First, prepare the things you want to bring. I'll check them. If there are no problems, we can go to the comic convention."
