Warhammer 40 Spring: Loyalty of the Multiverse

Chapter 47 Withdrawal
"This ocean is so beautiful!" Gers, who had already woken up, sat in the cabin and looked at the sparkling sea outside through the round, heavy glass.

As the effects of the medicine gradually took hold, Gers, whose injuries were relatively minor, had already regained consciousness.

It can even speak now, but its voice has become severely distorted.

Wearing power armor, Quan Tiehua carried a huge stainless steel basin and pushed open the hatch to enter.

For a moment, all the Astartes inside the cabin turned to look at them.

Okay... there are only three people in this cabin right now!

They are the unconscious Captain Aphros, the recently awakened but still injured Gers... and Vals, who has lost an arm and is still tinkering with electronic devices.

This was actually a rest and treatment room allocated to their wounded.

Just after Quan Tiehua saw the pharmacists leave, he carried in this bowl of steaming special food.

For Astartes, in order to meet the energy demands of these war machines for continuous, high-intensity combat,

Their diet consists mainly of various high-energy, high-mineral, and high-nutrient foods.

Of course, during normal times they also eat foods that ordinary people can eat, such as bread and roast meat.

Even if they come to Garden World, they can hunt and have outdoor barbecues in the heart of the jungle.

But now they've gone through intense combat after landing on Lesstar, and then they've come here and gone through... high... medium intensity combat again.

At this moment, their bodies' lack of energy from food has begun to manifest in their behavioral habits.

However, they are currently still in the process of retreating and adrift at sea. Li Muyi and his team's arrangements were extremely meticulous.

After traveling for two or three days, the cargo ship finally loaded into containers at several ports onto the way to Shanghai.

Therefore, conditions on board were rudimentary, and there was nothing that would allow them to quickly replenish their energy.

Fortunately, it was enough to barely fill their stomachs, and Astartes' body had an incredibly long stamina. So there was absolutely nothing to worry about!
At this moment, various high-calorie, high-fat foods were mixed together in the stainless steel bowl.

Quan Tiehua even ground some charcoal and steel scraps into a fine powder that could even float in the air and mixed it into the food.

However, it is clear that this bowl of food cannot provide enough energy for Astartes.

But we're lucky to have anything to eat right now, since there's no energy-rich food here that's perfectly suited to the needs of a weapon like the Astartes.

Gers didn't mind, took it, picked up the small military shovel, and started cooking.

I must say, the taste was pretty good!

"Those mortals said there are sharks like the ones from the Terran era in this ocean!" Vales said, knocking on the glass after seeing the newcomers. "Maybe we can take a few back sometime and make those white guys bleed!"

Quan Tiehua thought the suggestion was good. Their band had indeed had some minor clashes with the Man-Eating Shark band in the past.

It was on a planet that could be said to have been almost abandoned by the Empire. Various intelligent aliens, some forces of the Empire, and even some Chaos Warbands had formed a fairly large trading market there.

Even some ronin who defied the law came here to sell pure genetic seeds and various weapons, ammunition, and supplies used by Astartes.

In one of the irregularly held auctions, a fairly intact Imperial Dreadnought was put up for auction without any major repairs.

Both of their warbands originally wanted it, and the Crimson Angels warband still didn't have a Dreadnought. So they were extremely eager for this Dreadnought mech.

But who could have imagined that those bastards from the man-eating shark gang would suddenly appear and rob them, buying them away at an even higher price!
Thus, a minor grudge was formed between the two sides. At the time, Quan Tiehua was still in recruit training camp. He later heard that the Man-Eating Shark team hadn't done a good job painting the Dreadnought they bought, resulting in the original blue paint showing through.

Then it was secretly leaked to the Ultramarines by some warbands. As a result, a fierce battle broke out among them.

However, being from the same faction as the Astartes, they did not kill each other outright. Instead, they engaged in a duel!

In the end, tragically... the Man-Eating Shark Gang won!

Then the group of Ultra Warriors left, cursing and swearing!

Upon recalling this incident, the people present exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

Although the two countries are very close at sea, they secretly changed ships midway just in case.

The cruise ship slowly docked, and the tourists began to disembark in an orderly manner.

The cruise ship slowly came to a stop, where it began replenishing various supplies and carrying out repairs.

As night fell, the cruise ship, which had been illuminated by lights everywhere, slowly opened a hidden cabin door on its side where it was docked.

A man carrying a gun peeked out, looked around, and then pulled out a walkie-talkie from his waist to confirm.

Less than half a minute later, heavy footsteps echoed in the ship's corridor.

Then it transformed into a huge figure and appeared at the cabin door. Quan Tiehua immediately observed the situation around him after he came out.

Then he carefully stepped onto the narrow steel passageway and walked towards the shore.

Following closely behind were ordinary people carrying guns and the towering Astartes.

After the personnel disembarked, they did not begin the planned assembly and preparation. Instead, they continued walking forward.

After turning several corners, I saw a shipping container, so I quickly went up to it, opened the door, and went inside.

The same applies to the other staff.

And just like that, in less than five minutes, the quiet night and the quiet harbor returned to silence once more!

Until the next morning, when the area reopened, one ordinary transport truck after another arrived, and with the help of the gantry crane, these containers, along with other containers, were piled onto these trucks.

Meanwhile, América and satellites from all over the world were keeping a close eye on the chubby girl who landed in Edo.

Under their expectant gazes, tray after tray of relief supplies were pulled out of the computer case.

Then, to their expectant gaze, the plane remained parked for a full day and night, refueled, and then took off again, flying back into China.

Meanwhile, China also claimed at the United Nations that "in view of humanitarian considerations, our side..."

This left all the countries dumbfounded.

America wanted to drop the bombs but dared not, because the Chinese and Russian aircraft carrier fleets had already arrived near Edo.
