Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 135: Space City
The Expanse.

The Star Tower Airport is floating quietly.

The exact size and structure of each airport may vary greatly, but most are cast as a series of concentric ring structures.

Important machinery and management centers are located in the center, and the outer layer is a large and busy stacked dock.

Tens of millions of people live there, many of whom have never even been to the surface in their entire lives.

It can be said that the airport is both a port for ships and a space city.

In the distant past, when the planet Ers was at its most glorious, the Star Tower Airport was once a prosperous trade hub.

Ships of all kinds shuttled back and forth busily.

Because at that time, the Star Tower was the only airport in this star region.

It not only provides a trade market, but also provides spacecraft maintenance and supplies, and has many entertainment facilities.

It is a place where people who have been trapped on the spacecraft for a long time can relax.

At that time, people living in the airport could see the sky filled with various spaceships when they looked up.

There are not only military models, but also various civilian boats, cargo ships and yachts.

When the spacecraft docked at the dock, people walked through the endless warehouse and left the docking area.

They came to the living area under the illumination of bright yellow steam street lamps.

There is a maze of streets, with trams and steam boats providing transportation along the canals that run through the entire airport.

Those vulgar sailors, swearing in different languages, flocked into the casinos, opium dens or vulgar places in the entertainment street.

Their pockets are filled with money, but they only have a few weeks or even days to enjoy themselves.

So these people spent money lavishly, and they did not miss any opportunity to guzzle good wine and go to the gambling table.

Even spend a lot of money on the big-butt woman he likes.

Such acts of venting pent-up emotions often end in violence, attracting airport law enforcement officers.

These crew members will most likely be severely beaten by the iron rods and fists of law enforcers.

The spacecraft had finished resting, and after the hustle and bustle, the crew returned to the ship with either happiness or sadness.

Their pockets are mostly empty.

When the crew returned, the spaceships flew back to the galaxy with their full cargo and continued their journey.

“That was a wonderful time…”

Inside the transport cabin, Ron looked at the historical data about the Star Tower on the data board and couldn't help but sigh.

It was a glorious era when humans traveled through the universe and flourished.

The galaxy today is simply purgatory.

Under the invasion of heretics and aliens, all that remains is a war of cruelty and suffering.

The history of this star tower also reflects the changes of the Milky Way.

After a period of prosperity as a trade hub, the Star Tower gradually declined.

Because a larger airport was built in Mattila, the center of the star zone.

After the airport was built, few passing ships docked at the Star Tower Airport.

The Star Tower Airport lost its status as a trade hub, and the planet Ers declined.

In order to maintain the planet's economy, Ers had to transform and develop the mining industry, causing great pollution to the environment.

But not long after, war broke out between the planets in this star region.

War and killing spread like wildfire, and no one was willing to stop.

Fierce battles broke out between countless ships in space, and huge cannons roared.

After destroying the enemy fleet, the victors arrived above the enemy planet.

The fleet's destructive weapons bombarded city after city until all buildings and life were completely destroyed.

When the war ended, many planetary civilizations were destroyed.

The Goli sector has almost become a wasteland.

The planet Ers suffered heavy losses in this war, and even the moon in the sky was blasted with a hole by the giant cannon.

The debris formed a narrow meteorite belt around the moon.

Fortunately, although the Star Tower was severely damaged, it was still preserved.

After many more years, Ers regained its vitality and the Gang Dynasty ruled the planet.

The Star Tower Airport was also repaired and was shining again in the universe.

But it wasn't long before the empire arrived.

The huge fleet almost completely covered the Star Tower Airport and the planet Ers, and the airdrop pods scattered like meteors.

Out of it stepped a Space Marine in scarlet power armor.

They blasted the red-eyed mad king of the Ganger Dynasty into pieces and completely took over the planet.

At this point, Ers was included in the rule of the empire. And Ron's Grant family also benefited from it and was appointed as the governor family of Ers.

They have ruled the planet until now.

Ron knew everything that happened afterwards.

The cruel tithe brought down the planet Ers, the environment was severely damaged, and countless people died in misery.

The warp storm caused by the Great Rift made things even worse.

The invasion of chaos and aliens almost destroyed the entire planet.

Fortunately, the planet Ers welcomed its savior, Ron Grant, who saved the planet again.

Ron looked up at the starry sky.

The Star Tower Airport was floating quietly in the distant starry sky, in a dead silence.

The airport has not received any supplies in the past five years, and many areas have run out of energy and are in a closed state.

thump—

The transport cabin shook violently, then came to a stop.

Arrived.

Ron put away the data tablet, stood up, and walked towards the hatch.

Soon, the Star Tower Airport will be able to return to the embrace of Ers Star and be fully put into use.

The airport will become a supply port for the naval fleet and will continue to expand in the future, turning into a huge trade hub.

It will shine among the stars again!
……

When Ron walked out of the transport cabin and stepped onto the steel floor of the airport, he saw only blood and corpses all over the ground.

The wide ground of the anchorage area was almost entirely covered with human remains.

He could imagine how desperate these people were at that time.

When the disaster struck, they fled here and wanted to reach the surface, but the boats could not accommodate so many people.

A large number of people were forced to be trapped here and were killed by the chaos monsters.

There are still many fresh corpses on the ground, those are chaos monsters.

They were all torn apart by the heavily armed chicken thieves.

In the distance, the sound of fierce fighting could be heard.

The heavily armored troopers and the soldiers of the defense army are fighting against the chaos monsters and occupying important strongholds.

"Lord Governor!"

Carter led a team of guards, whose duty was to protect Ron.

"Follow me to the communications area!"

Humans had been to the communication area before and used the equipment in the communication area to send a distress call to the ground.

Maybe we can find clues of survivors by going there.

Moreover, after mastering the communication equipment, it will be possible to broadcast to the entire Star Tower Airport and convey messages to the survivors.

Saving the survivors is of vital importance.

Those survivors have lived here for generations and have a lot of knowledge related to the Star Tower.

Moreover, many of them have rich ship maintenance skills and are ready-made technicians.

If all the survivors died, it would undoubtedly take a lot of time to train them again.

Soon, Ron led Carter and other guards to clear out the chaos monsters and reached the communication area.

The communications area is much larger than expected. It is a huge, sophisticated mechanical hall.

"Save us!"

As soon as they arrived at the communication area, everyone heard the woman's urgent cry for help.

"Hurry up and save people!"

Ron ran to the machine room where the cry for help came from and kicked the door open.

whoosh-

A tentacle suddenly flew out from the darkness and stabbed at his head.

But Ron is stronger.

He grabbed the tentacles even faster and pulled the monster in the dark out of the machine room.

The monster fell heavily to the floor of the hall.

Only at this moment did everyone see the appearance of the chaos monster clearly. It looked like a combination of several humans, with several sharp tentacles.

"Save us!"

Suddenly, the withered female head on the chaos monster cried out for help...
