Traveling through time, I'm making pancakes in Warhammer

The elevator descended for a long time and finally stopped at the elevator exit of Shangchao. At this time, the scene here was still harmonious.

It was from here that Howard first set foot in Kalimdor.

At that time he had nothing and was being watched with malicious eyes, but now he is no longer alone.

"Why not just stop at the middle nest?" Arabelle couldn't help but ask after finding a dark place to hide.

Howard also wanted to stop at the middle nest at first, and Om Messiah must have understood his idea, but it still chose to stop at the upper nest.

Then there are only two possibilities for Om Messiah to make such a choice. Either it would be extremely dangerous for them to return to the Middle Nest via the space elevator; or, they could do something more important in the Upper Nest than returning to the Middle Nest.

"What's the current situation in Zhongchao?" Howard asked Char.

Xia glanced at the email and his expression changed slightly.

"The situation in Zhongchao is not optimistic. The infected area has not been contained, and the number of infections and deaths has been rising." Xia replied.

"What about the space elevator?" Howard asked the most crucial question. "When we went up, the area around the space elevator was occupied by plague zombies. What's the situation in that area now?"

"That place wasn't defended, and it's now the most seriously infected area," Xia said. Then he asked, "Also, Mr. Howard, those things you said were plague zombies?"

Howard had no intention of hiding it any further, so he briefly explained the characteristics of the plague zombies to the two of them. The explanation was a little difficult because Howard knew that the two humans in front of him had subspace projections. If they knew too much subspace knowledge, they might go crazy or be corrupted on the spot.

So when explaining, Howard chose his words very carefully, avoiding any words related to evil gods and the subspace.

"Plague zombies are seriously ill patients infected with... a virus created by people with ulterior motives." Howard explained to the two. In the first sentence, he concealed the connection between the zombie virus and the subspace. Anyway, it didn't matter whether they knew where the plague virus came from or not. They only needed to understand how to deal with and prevent these things. In other words, they only needed to know what it was but not why it was.

"This virus infects the human nerves, gradually deforming the body, and eventually turning it into zombies like the ones we just saw, capable of attacking living creatures and spreading the plague." Howard continued, explaining, "The only way to treat patients who have become plague zombies is to eliminate them. Conventional kinetic weapons are ineffective against them. It's best to use thermal weapons like lasers or flamethrowers. Besides being contagious through contact, this virus can also be transmitted through air, water, and..."

Originally, Howard wanted to talk about "psychic contagion". He knew that some powerful Nurgle plagues could even infect ordinary people just by hearing the name of the plague, but this would inevitably involve knowledge of the warp, so he had to keep quiet.

Moreover, according to his observation, the current outbreak might just be a basic virus of Nurgle. If the outbreak is really a plague of the divine level, then unless there are forces of the Primarch or the Mothership of Space Marines or above to deal with it, everyone should just choose a comfortable position and lie down and wait to die.

"In short, have your people protect themselves when dealing with the plague, build an isolation area, and collect materials for making pancakes while I wait for you to come back. Judging from Arabel's reaction, my pancakes should be able to at least cure primary infections," said Howard.

Char nodded, then sent an email to his subordinates and other leaders of the Middle Nest, conveying Howard's instructions.

"So what should we do now?" Arabelle asked.

"We can't rely solely on the forces of the Middle and Lower Nests to deal with this plague. We need professional medical teams and military forces to come in to have any hope..." Howard said, "But please look around us. Everything is still the same as before. The space elevators in the Middle Nest have stopped. It's impossible for this place not to receive the message. It shouldn't be so peaceful here."

"It seems someone has blocked the news," Char concluded. "The source of the plague is likely the same person who blocked the news. They simply hope the plague spreads to the lower levels of the hive, thereby achieving their ulterior motives."

"That's right, but the term 'the same person' might be a bit inaccurate. I'm more inclined to believe they're a collective with the same interests and goals," Howard said. "So we can't count on any assistance from this planet right now. We must find a way to spread the news of the plague outbreak on Natt and the rebellion of the upper echelons."

Howard was stunned when he heard this, because he suddenly understood a lot of things.

Perhaps the ruling class of the Hive City had already defected to Chaos, and wanted to corrupt the entire Lower and Lower Hives as a token of their allegiance to Chaos.

But when they were about to carry out their plan, angels came to the planet for supplies, and the priest personally sent someone off the spacecraft.

This frightened the nobles who had defected to Chaos. They thought their plan had been exposed before it was even implemented, so they postponed it and began to monitor the person who got off the angel spaceship, that is, themselves.

After they found out his true identity and drove him to the middle nest, the nobles thought that everything was fine. However, after a while, they themselves began to transport the magical pancakes in the opposite direction to the upper nest.

Howard guessed that his pancakes must have made those nobles very conflicted. They wanted to eat the pancakes, but their plan to defect to Chaos was already on the verge of happening, so Adrian took that action.

The order for that operation was probably not just to kidnap me, there should be another order, which was to eliminate me and stop the nobles from having any thoughts of kidnapping me if they couldn't bring me back to the upper nest.

Then he was seriously injured and lay dead for almost a month. During this month, the middle nest did not send any pancakes to the upper nest, so they thought he was dead and began to implement the plan of defecting to Chaos.

But he didn't die.

But do those nobles who still want to eat Jianbing know that they are not dead?

Or was the plan to kill him approved by the mixed group through voting or by the order of an individual?

If you are the one planning to defect to Chaos, and after your plan has begun to be implemented, you suddenly find that more pancakes are being transported to the upper nest, will you allow these pancakes to be sent to your unsteady allies and deepen their unsteadiness, or will you find a way to intercept them?

Assuming this speculation is correct, what would those nobles who were already undeterred and still wanted to eat Jianbing do if they knew that he was still alive?

Although they probably won't give up their plan to join Chaos just because of a pancake, there is a high probability that they will still take it all as before.

Howard covered his mouth. He felt his scalp begin to tingle, and the numbness spread all the way to his back.

No, who says we can't get help from this planet?

You can be a bait yourself.

Howard stopped pacing and looked at Char and Arabelle.

"Guys, I have a plan."
