Sea of ​​Despair? But I have the Legiones Astartes

As time went on, the humans discovered by the Space Marines were sent back to Holy Terra one by one.

Although the number is not large, it is less than 200 million.

But fortunately, Li Jia has become a real emperor at this time, and at least he has people under his command.

The once holy Terra only had less than 100,000 humans that Li Jia brought back from Kanda Star.

They are all slaves at the lowest level of the hive world.

These 200 million humans were settled near the imperial palace, where homes had already been built for them.

Rows of tall buildings and wide streets.

Living facilities are also available.

Many of the humans sent here shed tears of excitement when they saw their new home.

Some humans are living a precarious life because their planetary home is in the apocalypse.

Even staying alive has taken all my strength.

There are also some home worlds that were conquered by other races and became prisoners, living a life of slavery.

Having been exploited for so long, they have long lost hope in life.

There are 10,000 planets with life, but only 200 million humans live on them.

It indirectly shows that human beings are on the brink of extinction.

The other races in this universe have armies numbering billions.

The returned humans have now arrived at this new home built specifically for them, and their excitement is beyond words.

There is a feeling of finally being home.

Although we are all human beings, the reason why the Legion brought them back is not just because we are all human beings.

The most important reason was to expand the Space Marine Chapter stationed on Holy Terra.

There are three Space Marine regiments that Li Jia has stationed on Holy Terra for a long time.

From the Astral Knights Chapter, a successor chapter of the 7th Legion, the Imperial Fists.

A Space Marine Chapter capable of both offense and defense.

Most suitable as a planetary defense force.

The second remaining chapter was the Minotaur, founded during the 21st Founding. They were known for their ruthlessness towards their enemies, their indifference to sacrifice, and their unwavering loyalty.

The reason why Li Jia left them stationed in Holy Terra was that he wanted to have a Space Marine regiment dedicated to enforcing and maintaining the laws of the Empire.

The extremely powerful Minotaur Legion is the most suitable.

The Minotaurs are much richer than other chapters when they are produced from the Barracks.

Not only are there five large strike cruisers, but also battle barges, which are specially designed warships for Space Marines.

There is also a Queen of Glory-class battleship with a larger hull and more powerful firepower.

As well as more than a dozen dreadnought mechas and a large number of heavy combat vehicles.

The most amazing thing is that all the members of the Minotaur Regiment are wearing Terminator armor.

And most of them are old but powerful models.

The third Space Marine Chapter to remain on Holy Terra was a successor to the Salamanders, the 18th Legion of the Warhammer Empire.

War Behemoths.

Like their parent Chapter, they are a people-friendly Space Marine Chapter.

Most suitable as a human manager.

One guards Holy Terra from being violated, one governs humanity, and one enforces Imperial law.

These three chapters need to protect Holy Terra and have no chance of expedition.

Li Jia thought of sending all the humans discovered on the conquered planets back to Holy Terra.

These humans will also serve as the cornerstone for the development of the three chapters.

Now there are humans on Holy Terra.

With Li Jia's permission, the three Space Marine regiments began recruiting.

During this period, the Star Knights and the War Beasts selected dozens of humans from the 200 million humans who had a higher degree of match with their gene seeds.

The Minotaurs, however, were unable to recruit any.

Li Jia learned this from Askrig Moloch, the captain of the Minotaur warband.

This is also the secret behind the Chapter's continued full strength from the Millennium of M31 to the Millennium of M42.

That is, their Space Marine members are all heinous war criminals.

This is also why this regiment acts like a group of gangsters.

Li Jia was puzzled for a moment by the recruitment situation of this regiment.

Fortunately, there is still a way out. I found a solution.

That is, a mortal auxiliary army walked out of the barracks together with the Minotaur legion.

This mortal auxiliary army happened to be composed of war criminals.

This inadvertently solved the Minotaur Legion's recruitment problem.

Li Jia discussed with the Chapter Master Moloch that the Minotaur Chapter would recruit soldiers from this mortal auxiliary army in the future.

After several months, Holy Terra began to get back on track.

The new humans who came here also gradually adapted to their new lives and new identities.

Became the first citizens of the Holy Terra Empire.

Although the laws of the entire empire are relatively strict, the freedom of human life is relatively open.

Many of them started exploring the world with some supplies.

Li Jia didn't stop him either.

Because there are many planets suitable for developing agriculture, they serve as resource subsidy planets for the empire.

Li Jia's empire is relatively rich in food.

Humans who go out to explore this world just need to find a suitable place for human habitation.

Li Jia also provides a large number of land reclamation policies.

Everything is going in a good direction.

And while Li Jia was training his spiritual powers and enjoying life.

A fleet quietly appeared in the star region where the Holy Terra is located.

The fleet's appearance did not escape the patrol fleet of the Astral Knights.

The two sides soon started fighting.

The patrol fleet, led by five Space Marines from the Astral Knights Chapter, wiped out the foreign enemy fleet after a round of boarding battle.

The enemy's bodies were transported to Holy Terra and handed over to Li Jia.

Moloch, the captain of the Minotaurs, learned the identities of his enemies through their flesh and blood.

Baruk alien.

A fleet spanning hundreds of star sectors.

Came here through the teleportation array.

After learning this, Moloch volunteered to conquer this star region.

But Li Jia refused.

The Minotaur Legion has its own mission, and Li Jia will arrange for other legions to set off.

Li Jia calculated the time and found that the construction time for the next barracks was about to begin.

The wait didn't last long.

[Bang, congratulations to the master for acquiring the Nova Marines, a sub-regiment of the Ultramarines of the 13th Legion of the Warhammer Empire].

[Bang, congratulations, Master, one thousand Space Marines have been produced. Production authority has been closed, and the time for authority opening is unknown].

[Bang, congratulations, Master. The Nova Marines Chapter comes with Malcador, the Warhammer Empire's strongest human psyker].

Li Jia heard the system prompt sound in front and it was nothing.

When Li Jia heard Makado's name, he was stunned.

Li Jia knew this name.

He once freed up the Emperor to deal with the rebel Warmaster Horus.

Malcador resolutely sat on the Golden Throne.

When the Emperor defeated Horus and was sent back, seriously injured and unconscious, Malcador's body had shriveled up due to the overdraft of his psychic energy for all of humanity.

The Emperor awakened and decided to sit on the Golden Throne forever to protect humanity, and everyone then helped Malcador down from the throne.

But Malcador turned into ashes.

The Emperor bestowed upon the Humanity the title of Malcador, a hero.

Li Jia's consciousness entered the barracks space in his mind and came to the front of the Nova Warrior Corps barracks.
