Warhammer: Decided to take the route of stars surrounding the warp

The fluffy flies gathered in the sky to form evil black clouds, beneath which lay an endless world of decay. The trees had rotted, and there were twisted vines and all kinds of strange fungi climbing on them.

The ground is full of deadly poisonous insects flying and crawling around. There are sharp thorns hidden in the soft and smelly mud, and their spikes are covered with extremely terrifying toxins.

The turbid river meanders into the distance, and from time to time the wailing of poor souls tortured by the plague emerges from it.

In the middle of this world of decay and disease stands a dilapidated villa built on a huge pile of rotting dead trees.

Its glass was half-shattered and lingering among endless vines and grotesque lichen, its decaying foyer did not feel like a suitable place to entertain guests, and its decaying floorboards harbored a host of flesh-eating molds. They unleash a paralyzing plague that devours the flesh of their visitors.

If any unlucky person accidentally steps into this place, he will find that the villa becomes bigger and bigger as he walks, and eventually he will find that he only has half of his body left. If he happens to encounter a virus that the owner is not satisfied with, he will be surprised to find that he is being destroyed. The floor was eating itself but there was nothing it could do about it, even its throat was rotten.

Passing through the kitchen where all the poisons in the world are sealed and the attic where the entrails of various plagues have been stuffed, you can see a fat green man with huge antlers if you are lucky enough.

Nurgle, the oldest of the four gods of Chaos, now no longer stirs the poisonous cauldron (restored version) that is enough to hold the world's oceans. He just looks into the distance in confusion.

"Is the mass extinction coming? The turbulent darkness is coming, but why are there strange signs?"

He did not continue to make those deadly poisons. Amid the giggles of many Nurglings, he slowly walked towards the death swamp of Nurgling Garden to listen to the travelers' stories.

——————————————————————————————————

Mavlek, the forge world of rebellion, looked confused, huh? I asked you to help me pacify Nurgle. Why did you end up pacifying the Mechanicum of the Empire? The agricultural world has been "taken back" by you, what should we do? Although most rebel worlds have their own food production bases, in the agricultural world Oulaye has basically been abandoned, and it takes a lot of effort to restart.

At this time, Yifeng was commanding the battle barge Stern Alert to quickly sail to the remaining three worlds that had not yet recruited new recruits. There was no reason why the 40 recruit transformation slots were vacant. He wanted to recruit fresh blood quickly, and then went to find the big army. Pharmacists and.

The members of the Stolov Mechanicus who had gone to Orlaye before were very confused. The burning marks in many places on this planet were not like those caused by the Emperor's Baneblade tanks, but more like the firepower that only Titans could possess. But after asking Next, Yifeng bit the traces of his own orbital bombing to death, and conveniently reported an astonishing amount of ammunition consumption. The Mechanic Cult member stopped talking. You go ahead and argue with the Mechanical Archbishop, I will not participate. .

Mechanical Archbishop Finnis felt like an injustice. It would have been great if he had directly signed a contract for how much ammunition he wanted at that time. Why did you sign a century-old contract for the consumption and supply of ammunition?

I am just a founding planet, but I also have to complete the biological orders of the Red Torrent Chapter, the battleship orders of the Dawn Angels, your supplies, and the Eldar battleship research...

Expansion, high and low expansion.

Yifeng said, do you want to help?

Archbishop Finis:? ? ?

When the new recruits were undergoing transformation, two battle barges were parked together to establish a temporary passage. The great pharmacist and technical sergeant were busy flying, while Yifeng was free to write a book there.

It's different now. You two are still busy transforming new recruits. I have soldiers under my command.

Among the 42 people, 10 went to the Forge World to study abroad, 10 studied with the Great Apothecary, 10 hid in Taste, and 6 studied with the Technical Sergeant.

Then there are still 6 Astartes, plus Yifeng’s 7 Astartes, can’t they earn some milk powder money for you?

So the seven of them wandered off to the forge world of Storov to look for work.

If the Archbishop still has a face, his face must be full of black lines now.

Why is this war group so shameless? It just took away a lot of military supplies and now it tells me that you are here to work?

It's like you bought everything in the convenience store with a 3 yuan convenience store gift card given by someone else. Because the card was issued before, the convenience store has no income this time and is thinking about how to get some money to restock. , you come out and tell me that you have spent all the money selling things and you want to work?

So, Yifeng and his group of seven people set off with the Mechanicus' exploration ship. The Mechanic Archbishop's order was that this time you have Astartes escort, go and take a look further away (get out of here as far as you can) How far).

The recovered items are divided into 8% and 2%, % for the Mechanicus, and % for Yifeng and the others. Of course, they can also be exchanged for materials of corresponding value.

To be honest, the price is quite high. After all, Yifeng and the others only have seven people.

The exploration spacecraft flew towards the hazy star field.

They are not going to the Hazy Star Territory, but to the junction of the Taiping Star Territory and the Hazy Star Territory.

The empire's division of the star field does not draw dividing lines based on the density of the planets here.

It's about the number of human colonies. There are almost no human colonies on this line, so it serves as the boundary of the star field. (Actually, it was the junction of the advancement routes of the main legions during the Great Expedition. Since it has not been "recovered", it is not known whether there is a human world there)

After all, the Ministry of Interior's tax collection ship still has to consider its navigation route.

The exploration spacecraft flew to these uninhabited areas. Not only were these areas not sparsely populated with planets, but they actually contained many things of value to the Mechanicus.

Originally, Yifeng and the others were located extremely far away from the center of the galaxy, but now they are marching deeper into the universe along the dividing line between the two star fields.

In fact, if they march inward, there is a high probability that they will be beaten to pieces by a Necron dynasty.

In the dark depths of the universe, even the number of stars has decreased a lot since traveling here. The exploration spacecraft has explored many wandering planets. For unknown reasons, these planets may have been thrown away by their own stars, or they may have been affected by other stars or black holes. The attraction was thrown away.

They wander in the dark universe, waiting for a planet with enough mass to capture them.

The Adeptus Mechanicus even observed several rogue planets orbiting a huge rogue planet. This strange planet allowed them to collect data for a while before leaving.

It is a pity that life has not been born in this gravity-tide-like environment.

Yifeng was bored fighting with other Astartes. The sparring between these angels was probably the only way they could kill time.

Yifeng now seriously doubts whether the Mechanical Archbishop wants to just let the exploration ship circle the Milky Way and come back, so that they don't have to pay and deal with Yifeng reasonably.

Since they are exploration ships, when they arrive at a galaxy, they will immediately scan the galaxy, and resource points are constantly marked on the map. This will be an important reference in the future construction of the Mechanicus.

It wasn't until they arrived in this unknown galaxy that the Bird Servant finally showed an unusual signal.

Judging from the signal, it is a metal object floating in space. It may be a spaceship, a space station or an observation station.

The Astartes immediately got on the reconnaissance plane and set off. After holding it in for so long, they were finally able to go out and fly the plane. The three sons of Chagatai Khan, including Yifeng, were too tired to hold back.

All the Sons of Ferus on this expedition have gone to the technical sergeants for further training, so now there are only two children of the White Scar, two children of the Shadow Moon Wolf, two children of the Imperial Fist, and exactly three reconnaissance planes. Yifeng Duo Take one person with you.

The reconnaissance plane drew a beautiful arc in the universe, relying on the meteorite as a cover to approach the target.

From a rough outline, it looks like a space hulk.

When it approached again, it was confirmed that it was an imperial space hulk. The Gothic architecture and the emperor's statue on it all proved its loyalty.

The keel scan shows that this is an Imperial pilgrim ship from 38K.

This kind of ship is a ship organized by the Imperial State Church to help pilgrims travel throughout the empire and visit the holy relics collected in various areas. It is usually protected by battle sisters or other armed forces, and there are also some precious treasures of the Imperial State Church. , for people from all the worlds it reaches to make pilgrimages.

There won't be any state religion treasures on it.

If you don't make a fortune, check the information immediately.

The Mechanicus exploration ship quickly verified the keel code and found that this imperial pilgrim ship disappeared in the Ultramarine Starfield at 39K. No one knew what happened, but it carried a former living saint of the empire, a member of the Sisters of the Heart of Fire. A scepter used by the founder, St. Catherine, and an iron chain that she used to bind enemies of the Empire.

Isn't this a developed country? Everyone knows how rich the state religion is.

Can't this be used to replenish a large wave of funds?

Mechanical teaching personnel quickly contacted Yifeng and prepared to break in.

Who knows what's in here, everyone should be armed quickly.

Mapus, the priest of the Mechanicus who was responsible for this exploration, very much did not want the Astartes to get involved in this operation, but this extremely dangerous activity made his own army suffer heavy losses if there were any strange enemies. Big punishment.

Finally, after scanning the entire ship, some seemingly dormant creatures were indeed found. The Adeptus Mechanicus asked for caution, and the Astartes and Skitarii boarded the ship from the bow at the same time.

The shield infantry and five rangers of the Mechanicus quickly dispersed to search, and the iron-winged fire dragons (skitarii armed with flamethrowers) followed closely behind.

The Astartes sensed a disturbing aura. Yifeng ordered everyone to turn on the multi-luminosity tactical eyepieces and move forward in defensive formation.

There were great statues of the Emperor around, but they were all broken into pieces, and only half of the Emperor's portrait was left. Blasphemous patterns and crossed-out sacred blessings were everywhere.

The Skitarii sent a burst of images to Yifeng. A purple-painted power armor fell to the ground with nothing inside.

He's the Emperor's Children, apparently a Noise Warrior, a group of Chaos Astartes who have turned to Slaanesh.

This group of Astartes who turned out to be the Third Legion was led by the primarch Fulgrim. They turned out to strive for perfection in everything and were the perfect blades of the Empire.

Following the Horus Heresy, unspeakable massacres were committed.

After retreating into the Eye of Terror, the Legion occupied the planets best suited to launch an attack on the Imperium.

Fulgrim, who was later transformed into a demon prince, managed to ambush the fleet chasing them and inflicted such heavy damage on the Imperial General Guilliman that he lay in the stasis field for ten thousand years.

All Imperial loyalists have an unspeakable hatred for the Emperor's Children, especially Fulgrim, who can be said to be the most powerful person under Horus.

Is our enemy the Emperor's Children?

Obviously not, their bodies had disappeared without a trace. Although there were still blasphemous patterns on the walls, they had long been blurred.

What can be determined is that the ship was attacked by the forces of Slaanesh.

Everyone moved on, alert levels rising. They passed through the heavy iron door and arrived at a lobby.

No one knows exactly what happened here, but it is obvious that they are resisting here, and now the broken swords and laser guns can be vaguely seen.

All the corpses and bones disappeared without a trace. Even the Mechanic-Priest with the most complete analysis and detection database did not know what happened.

There seemed to be unfinished sacred blessings carved on the ground, like people's last prayers before death.

The damage to these bunkers did not seem serious, and they were not covered by artillery fire anyway.

Just as everyone was about to move forward, the Mechanic Priest stopped everyone, and Yifeng's sensitive senses also felt intensive vibrations.

"Here they come, there are a lot of them."

Thousands of enemies appeared from the entrance of the passage.

They have four arms with long sharp claws, a long head, but a round forehead. The long tongue is actually its reproductive organ, which can shoot parasite-like seeds. The mouth has many features like insects. Many sharp and sharp teeth with extremely hard shells,

The enemy's final identity is revealed - the Genestealers.

The Genestealers are the pioneers of the Tyranids, which will devour all living things and turn the planets they pass into bare earth balls. Their scale is extremely large, coming from the dark universe outside the Milky Way, and they have swallowed up countless planets.

The pioneers of the Tyranids are gene stealers. They go to find planets rich in biomass, use psychic energy to notify the Tyranids, and infect local races, paralyzing local defenses, and waiting for the arrival of the Great Devourer Tyranids.

Genestealers often have four forms. The first four forms will become more and more like the host as they reproduce, and the fifth generation will return to their ancestors and become pure-blooded genestealers. The first generation of Genestealers who came here would grow into powerful psychic lords as their descendants grew.

It can parasitize different species, thus producing different subspecies, but compared to races such as Greenskins, Chaos, and Eldar that are either psychically powerful or have powerful technological inspection techniques, humans in the galaxy have become the best hosts.

It is very likely that the ship had problems with Geller's position while it was in the subspace, and was then invaded by the forces of Slaanesh. Although the final result is not known, it must have crashed into real space and then encountered the gene stealers.

It was obvious that the ship's engine had been damaged, and even the Genestealers had no choice but to leave it adrift in space.

Now, having not eaten for a long time, they are hungry and weak. All the first to fourth generation Stealers have died of old age and been eaten, and only pure-blooded Gene Stealers can enter a long slumber of thousands of years.

They pounced on Yifeng and the members of the Mechanicus, and pounced on the fresh blood food.

The Skitarii are almost fully mechanized modified humans, and it’s hard to say whether there is blood on them.

In an instant, everyone burst out with terrifying firepower, and the gene stealers in front were instantly killed and injured.

They were originally very fast, but they are now too weak. They had good defensive carapace, but the weapons of the Astartes and Skitarii are not ordinary things.

"Pay attention to alternate cover. Their claws are very sharp and can easily tear our power armor apart."

While Yifeng shouted the precautions, he pulled Kazaniv, who was too far in front, back.

The Skitarii's shield infantry are in front, why are you joining in the fun?

It's really like an old nun, Kazan Neev muttered in a low voice, hoping Yifeng didn't hear it.

The gene stealers attacking from the front were quickly eliminated, and the iron-winged fire dragon quickly breathed fire to destroy the biomass.

The more Genestealers there are, the stronger their boss psychic powers are. Be sure to destroy biomass, as your opponents won't mind eating their own corpses to increase their numbers.

Thoroughly clean up, and no one can be left behind.

During the fierce exchange of fire between the two sides, the gene stealers who came from unknown channels rushed out from behind everyone. The nearest Mechanicus Shield Infantry, who was in a hurry, had his armor torn apart by sharp claws in an instant. .

The two Sons of the Imperial Fists quickly turned around and started shooting, but the large number of enemies made it impossible for them to dislodge them for a while.

Yifeng pulled out his power sword and faced the gene stealers behind him. He quickly slashed the first few enemies with his swung power sword, and then an overloaded ion bullet temporarily cleared the passage behind.

The Adeptus Mechanicus reacted quickly and sent out a large number of detectors, wandering through various passages. No matter what, they had to ensure their retreat.

The Astartes and the Skitarii advanced in a comprehensive search. There were constant exchanges of fire indicating that they had lost contact with the Skitarii, and support from the exploration ship was constantly being delivered to the ship.

The genestealers retreated briefly, but everyone understood that these cunning enemies must be laying traps waiting for their prey to enter.

Gorgeous murals and glass products, glowing luminous pearls and colorful gems, everything is so magnificent. These places should have been filled with the sounds of devout people singing hymns, but now they were completely silent, with occasional rustling sounds appearing and disappearing.

The passageways and bulkhead mezzanines of the ship's cabin are the main targets of the Mechanicus' investigation, and they are also the places where genestealers most often launch attacks.

Yifeng was inexplicably reminded of his sneak attack on five Sons of Horus on the Blessed Forest and killed three of them.

Genestealers also like this tactic.

A violent explosion came from the ventilation duct, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out between the Mechanicum's exploration machinery and the gene stealers in the narrow duct.

Strictly speaking, the Skitarii of the Mechanicus and all the mechanically ascended Necrons are the best opponents to deal with the Genestealers. Without them, these things basically have no flesh and blood. You can't get biomass supplies even if you defeat me. The size of the Genestealer colony will continue to shrink, and then the hive owner will become extremely weak.

Passing through various strange gothic rooms, there are either weapons scattered around or purple power armor that only leaves empty shells. It couldn't be that the gene stealers invaded when the people of the State Church were fighting the forces of Slaanesh, right? .

What a 6.

Everyone is about to enter the covered bridge, which is the widest and highest place on the entire ship, and also the place where it is most difficult to resist a large-scale insect infestation.

The iron gate is just ahead!
