Warhammer 40 Spring: Loyalty of the Multiverse

Chapter 40 Retreat
"Commander!" Inside the Hengtian base, the communications officer relayed the latest orders from the White House officials.

"Fuck!" The commander cursed and slammed the order onto the command table after seeing it.

"Clear the base immediately! Move all people and equipment to a safe area! A nuclear bomb is about to hit us!!"

"Yes, sir!"

After seeing the base bustling with activity, the commander couldn't help but stand by the window and look down, muttering to himself, "At least these congressmen have some conscience."

After finishing his hat-making, he took out his corn pipe, the same one he had on his idol, General MacArthur, lit it in a very flamboyant manner, opened the door, stood at the bottom of the stairs, put on his sunglasses in a flamboyant way, looked around, and then walked down the stairs and boarded the plane that had been prepared in advance.

If that five-star general were standing here and saw this scene, he would surely point and shout, "This kid is just like me!"

The speed of the Seraphim is very fast, not only in terms of their running speed, but also in terms of their learning speed.

By consuming parts of the body that contained memories from their previous lives, they gained some of the memories and skills that the corpses had learned in life.

This includes things like driving!
However, given the size of the Astartes and their armor, the car was simply too small for Little Baka to fit them all in.

So, the technical sergeant quickly dismantled the entire cab frame and all obstructions of the trucks.

They didn't even leave a chair!
After all, it's just an ordinary gas truck. Even if the fuel tank is blown up by bullets, it won't kill them. What's there to be afraid of?

And so, a total of six trucks set off on their way.

But the tires, unable to bear the weight, protested.

Considering the overall weight of the Astartes, the military technology team simply removed the brakes, leaving only the accelerator.

One kick, and it's all about killing!
Because of the weight of the Astartes, the car only gradually accelerated after a few minutes!

Because it was close to the city center, they didn't take any cars on the road, even though there were many parked there, causing severe traffic congestion.

So, as we approached the suburbs, we saw that the roads were so narrow that only one large truck could pass.

At Quan Tiehua's suggestion, all the Seraphim had their technical sergeants modify ten trucks or vans within minutes.

A smooth journey!
In just over ten minutes, we passed through the tunnel and entered the Okutama Mountains.

The roofs of almost every truck had been removed; otherwise, given the weight and size of the Astartes, not many people could fit in a single truck.

All the Astartes were silent, watching the scenery rushing past them and the lush green mountains in the distance.

It can be said that from the time they were born until they came into this world, almost no one had ever seen such a beautiful view.

Even if some Astartes were originally born into imperial nobility, in that hive city environment, apart from sunlight and slightly yellowish or greenish clouds, the rest was basically an endless steel jungle.

Of course, there are other garden worlds as well. But the scenery in those garden worlds still can't compare to the beauty right here on Earth!

After all, in a general sense, they are also Earthlings.

“This world is so beautiful! It would be incredibly fortunate if it could become our Chapter’s homeworld.” An Astartes wanted to remove his helmet to feel the air and the beauty of the landscape. However, he didn’t, because the danger was not yet over. So his voice, tinged with regret, came through the communicator. Quan Tiehua looked at the familiar scenery he hadn’t seen in over a decade and sighed, “It is indeed beautiful, but I think we will have planets like this as our homeworld in the future. And many, many of them. Without the insectoids sent by the Empire to destroy and exploit these planets, they will belong entirely to our Chapter!”

No one responded, though they all longed for it. But to voice their desire would appear disloyal to the empire!
Something's not right up ahead!

The car at the front suddenly sounded its alarm. Upon hearing the alarm, the crowd, without considering whether the car could stop, jumped out of it.

Astartes, who was in the driver's seat, swerved and crashed the car into the mountainside next to him.

After the car came to a stop from the impact, he pushed aside the deformed supports and got out. "There's something going on ahead." As he spoke, the man took off his helmet, closed his eyes, and sniffed carefully. "The aura ahead is very strange. It's somewhat similar to the aura of those two monsters in the city, but also different!"

"Let's skip the main road and go up the mountain to take a look," Quan Tiehua said after looking around and finally focusing on the mountain.

After all, taking the main road would make them easy to spot, but what about going up the mountain? Besides, satellite positioning might not be able to see them through the trees. More importantly, their power armor also has a certain degree of concealment.

At this moment, in a huge valley in the mountains, surrounded by trees, there is a very steep hillside with very obvious signs of human construction.

At this moment, on a field on the hillside that was almost the size of a football field, the leaves had been swept away and the soil had disappeared, revealing the gate covered by camouflage netting below.

The gate, which had been covered by camouflage netting, was already open, but the netting was still laid on top of it.

"This is it. It looks like they're transporting something?"

As they were talking, a corner of the camouflage net was suddenly lifted, and one of the heavily armed bastards came out and began to look around.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that he started pressing the communication button next to his ear, saying something through the headset.

A few minutes later, a loud roar was heard.

One after another, fully sealed trucks began to drive out of the dark tunnel behind the gate.

What's in the car?

"It feels like a humanoid object, but there's a strong smell of blood and some mechanical stuff mixed in. It seems like these mortals used the flesh and blood of the two monsters in the city and the machine that's fighting them to create some kind of bio-weapon!"

Quan Tiehua was taken aback, and then thought of the Rage Obsidian mech that appeared in Pacific Rim 2.

That mech's cockpit was entirely controlled by a brain grown from monster genes—a villainous mech. To him at the time, it was incredibly cool.

Could it be that these little bastards held shares in the Shaw Group back then? But then I remembered the final scene in Pacific Rim II, where those nanobot-like things appeared in the Shaw Group base in the capital of the little bastards.

These little bastards have been researching all sorts of biotechnology. With the arrival of the monsters, their biotechnology will likely advance by leaps and bounds.

It's highly likely that this little rascal has made contact with the pioneers on the other side of the wormhole. But it could also be an indirect connection, after all, this little rascal's ambition to dominate the world has been brewing for quite some time.
