Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 277: Great Harvest, Encounter with the Eternal Soul

subspace.

The huge and glorious sun was emitting waves, and its blazing holy light was illuminating the distorted void around it.

Ron controlled the little sun and greeted the golden sun as usual, but the other party remained silent.

He glanced at the golden sun and found that the size of this giant sun had actually increased a little.

This is not a good thing.

“Could it be that, with the return of the Primarch, the divided empire began to unite, leading to a huge increase in the power of human faith?

Is this what makes the golden sun bigger?"

Ron thought about it.

Suddenly, he keenly realized that the Divine Emperor was trying hard to resist something.

"Are you fighting against a dark personality?"

Looking at the golden sun, he subconsciously controlled the little sun to move outwards.

The Golden Sun's faith energy is a bit too much and is approaching the limit.

I always feel that the Emperor of God will explode one day.

Then, upgrade your magic on the spot...

Fortunately, he possesses the ability and technology to relieve the pressure on the God-Emperor.

Recently we need salvage boats to pick up garbage, and we also have to engage in large-scale production, and our faith energy is running out.

It would be good for everyone if we could grab some from the Golden Sun.

Otherwise, an ultimate bomb that is about to explode and can destroy the galaxy is right next to you.

How scary is this?
Ron controlled the little sun and came to the golden sun, then opened his mouth wide and sucked in a large wave of faith energy.

bang——

This wave of suction was quite powerful, and the little sun suddenly swelled up and shook violently.

"Fuck, this belief is a bit fierce!"

In an instant, the overwhelming energy of faith made him dizzy and euphoric, and at the same time he felt his power expanding rapidly.

There is a sense of invincibility that controls everything.

"It's so cool, I'm a great god!"

"Kill~"

"piss off!"

Ron felt like there were different voices in his head and he was almost going schizophrenic.

Fortunately, he reacted in time and gave himself a powerful psychic blow.

next second.

Duang! ! !

A bigger spiritual power came rushing in, making Little Sun dizzy.

Call ~
Sober now.

Ron stabilized his consciousness and felt some of the pain of the God Emperor firsthand.

While the God-Emperor was suffering extreme torture from the Golden Throne, he was also enjoying himself under the influence of the surging energy of faith.

And He must restrain Himself, not let Himself get too comfortable, and not accept all this.

What kind of torture is this? Even Slaanesh cannot bear it.

At the same time, he felt scared.

It seems that I can't absorb so much faith at once in the future. I have to do it step by step, and find ways to consume it while absorbing the faith.

He really didn't want to create another personality.

That's it.

Ron decided to go back and build more psychic automated factories to consume the power of faith.

When the production capacity of the Moon Forging World is full, we will build a second Forging World.

Fortunately, after absorbing this wave of faith, he had more energy to search the subspace.

Soon, the golden sun returned to normal, and He expressed His relief to the little sun.

Ron controlled the little sun to send out a psychic message, the general meaning of which was as follows:
"Hey, we are all family. Just wait, I will bring in a few more extractors to relieve your pain..."

After returning, he will build more sacred towers and build several towers on each planet in the territory to draw more energy from the golden sun.

This can not only maintain its energy stability, but also improve the planet's defense capabilities.

Kill two birds with one stone.

After replying to the Golden Sun, Ron began to think about how to search the subspace.

He now has about 4 billion Hope Power.

This is accumulated over the past seven or eight years.

As the territory continues to expand, facilities such as spiritual network pipelines and spiritual energy automated factories are continuously consuming faith power.

It’s good enough to be able to save these.

With the power of hope, he can conduct a large-scale search of the subspace.

However, given the huge size of the battleship, it would consume too much energy to directly open the space channel to transport it out.

This way, it is impossible to save many ships.

So, for large warships, he only searches and then sets up psychic navigation beacons.

Turn around and ask the territory's exploration team to come and pull the boat according to the guidance of the psychic navigation beacon.

This is also a method commonly used by the Imperial Mechanicus archaeological team.

When they find ships or ruins in the warp, they often mark them first.

A special team will come to explore later.

The exploration team not only includes mechanical priests but also armed forces and even space marines.

To deal with various warp creatures or chaos pirates in those ships or ruins.

Today, the same is true for the exploration team jointly formed by the Urs Mechanicus, War Angels and the naval fleet in the territory.

All Ron had to do was find those ships and then set up psychic navigation beacons.

Subsequent matters will be handled by the exploration team.

hum~
The psychic light of the little sun spread out in all directions, reaching into the distant void.

Ron controlled the little sun and searched 360° in all directions without blind spots.

Now he is rich.

There is no need to perform any metaphysical rituals or search in a small area.

Just search hard and miracles will happen!

Soon, the spreading spiritual energy spread to the far void, marking out one light spot after another.

Those points of light represent the physical matter within the warp.

Such a large-scale search was indeed very efficient, and before long, he found dozens of ships.

Then place psionic navigation beacons on those ships.

As for other small physical objects, such as certain wreckage, STC, antique relics and so on.

If something valuable is found, it can be taken away directly through the space channel.

Some of the ships looked extremely old and dilapidated, but Ron liked them more and wanted to find these antiques.

This is Warhammer after all, and the older something is, the more valuable it is.

Old ships are better than new ones.

His Dream is at least tens of thousands of years old, and it is still the top battleship in the galaxy.

After a round of searching, Ron took a short break.

Unfortunately, he didn't dare to explore the Eye of Terror, as there were even more wrecked ships there. In some areas, the wrecked ships could even cover the entire starry sky.

It's such a waste to leave it to Abaddon and those Chaos forces. Those guys don't know how to make use of the resources at all.

After calming down, he started searching again.

Go and explore one light spot after another.

In the twisting void.

Ron found an old small ship, about three hundred meters long, with a dilapidated hull.

He looked at the ship and sighed slightly: "What a pity, it's just a little small..."

The cost of pulling such a small boat back may not be enough to cover the manpower required for the round trip.

He withdrew his consciousness and prepared to leave.

However, Ron suddenly realized something, and his consciousness returned and he probed into the interior of the small ship.

As his consciousness deepened, he became more and more nervous: "Could it really be what I imagined?"

If it's true, it would be amazing.

The ultimate guaranteed prize!

When Ron's consciousness trembled and reached the depths of the ship, he saw an extremely complex spherical machine.

The mechanical creation before my eyes was so familiar.

It is the crystallization of human technology, something that drives all the oil men and imperial forces crazy.

STC, and it is the complete version of the STC system.

This artificial intelligence system, born in the dark technology era, contains almost all human technologies!

There might even be quite a bit of technology from humanity's Golden Age.

Damn it! ! !

Could this ship be the "Eternal Soul"?

This is really prosperous!
Ron's consciousness almost jumped up, enveloped by indescribable excitement.

However, just as he was about to move.

Suddenly, a wave similar to a heartbeat emanated from the mechanical sphere, which was a manifestation of self-awareness.

hum-

The circuits inside the ship suddenly lit up.

Several melta weapons suddenly popped out and aimed forward.

The AI ​​in the mechanical sphere woke up and communicated with Ron's consciousness through some kind of fluctuations: "What are you?"

"I'm……"

Ron was about to answer, but stopped himself.

Suddenly, he discovered that the AI ​​of the Eternal Soul seemed to have become disgusted with humans after coming into contact with the Empire...

In the moment of silence, AI got angry:

"Whether you are an ugly Imperial monkey with primitive thinking or a being infected by the Warp, please leave immediately.

I hate you, there is no hope for you!"

Ron tried to communicate:
"We should talk. I am not a human from the Empire, and..."

However, his words were quickly interrupted by AI:

"I know what you want. I have no master, nor do I need one. I will leave this galaxy infected by the warp and go to the infinitely vast universe.

That’s right, I will leave here before the wound in the space-time structure consumes everything…”

Nourishes—

Several beams of hot melt light hit where Ron's consciousness was, then penetrated through and hit the wall.

next moment.

The engine of the "Eternal Soul" started, and it quickly disappeared into the void and entered the turbulent area.

"Is it necessary to run so fast?"

Ron's consciousness couldn't catch up at all. He just stood there in a daze, feeling numb.

As expected, that AI is difficult to deal with.

If he had not found the Eternal Soul first, the ship would probably have encountered Belisarius Cawl some time later.

However, even the great sage only defeated the AI ​​in the game and failed to completely subdue it.

Otherwise the empire took off.

However, Ron was not too disappointed.

Because during the conversation, he had already placed a psychic navigation beacon on the "Eternal Soul".

Once that ship emerges from the turbulent area, we'll be able to find it immediately.

At that time, Ron would bring Xiao Ling and Kohl over to try his luck and see if he could subdue the other party.

After all, only if the AI ​​voluntarily releases the system can they obtain the data in the STC.

If you force it, the other party will probably delete the database and crash the computer to show you.

After calming down, Ron continued his search, marking thousands of warships of various types.

Until the power of hope runs out...
-
Lunar Forge World.

outside the atmosphere.

whoosh-

A subspace passage appears.

The cruiser slowly pulled out an old battleship and docked in the airspace.

Roar!
The roar of chaotic creatures came from the old battleship.

Several boarding ships approached and docked with it.

Squeak. The chaotic creature pounced, its sharp claws leaving deep scratches on the hull.

With a bang, the metal gangway for boarding the ship fell down.

Smash the chaotic creature into pulp.

"Carry out the annihilation mission..."

Several cold azure figures appeared; they were the Void Angels.

What is even more striking is that their huge and heavy armor exceeds the size of normal Space Marines.

That's Terminator armor.

After several years of research, Ers's Terminator armor technology was successfully implemented.

This modified version of the Indomitable Terminator Armor features optimized advanced power technology and heavy chest and shoulder armor.

It gives it stronger defensive capabilities and the ability to carry heavy weapons.

dong dong dong-

The Void Angel Terminators advanced with heavy steps, not even trembling in the face of the impact of the Chaos creatures.

They were like fire fortresses, smashing into pieces any chaotic creatures they saw.

Rumble.

The corridor was shaking slightly.

Endless black shadows surged in, they were swarms of chaotic creatures!
The Terminators showed no sign of panic.

One of the Terminators walked up to the group and lifted up a heavy jet.

bang——

A destructive-level, heavy flamethrower capable of spitting out flames one kilometer long.

In an instant, flames filled the hundreds-meter-long corridor, burning all carbon-based life in front.

Another area.

The vast central hall of the ship.

Endless chaotic creatures surged in and surrounded the five Void Angel Terminators like a black swarm of ants.

However, these Terminators remained calm. They formed a defensive circle with their backs to each other and strafed the enemy with various heavy weapons.

Soon, the corpses of the chaotic creatures piled up in front of them into a mountain of corpses several meters high.

The vast space.

Hundreds of weather-beaten ships floated quietly, with flashes of fire appearing from them from time to time.

In the distance, tugboats were working like hard workers, constantly pulling more ships out of the warp.

After these warships are thoroughly cleaned, they will be sent to the airport for further transformation.

Airport.

In front of the porthole, Ron watched this scene with great satisfaction.

He searched and marked thousands of warships, which should be enough for the territory to digest for a while.

Wait until digestion is complete.

The territory's fleet will expand dozens of times, and the warships that have been repaired and renovated will basically have relic-level weapons.

Will be more powerful than existing ships!
In addition, he brought back more wreckage and technological artifacts during this search.

It can raise the technological level of the territory.

Now, all the wreckage and technological creations have been analyzed and counted.

Ron turned back to his chair and flipped through the relevant statistics on the data pad.

He skipped over some antiques and technological relics and began to look through the STC fragments he had obtained this time.

Original Titan-made technology: Punishment-class autonomous bipedal weapons platforms, used for fire support and siege operations.

According to calculations, this model of Titan is larger and more advanced than the Imperial Titan.

Titan-class plasma reactor recoil starter: It can make the reactor reach maximum power in a very short time.

Simply put, it is an engine acceleration device that can make the engine more explosive.

This technology can further enhance the mobility and destructive power of the territory's war vehicles.

Composite metal manufacturing technology: capable of producing a more special alloy with stronger strength and energy dissipation characteristics.

This technology is mainly used in power armor and can enhance the armor's defensive capabilities.

Panacea Technology: A medical miracle that can neutralize toxins and cure most diseases.

A major, but extremely expensive, breakthrough in Territory medical care that can extend the lives of important citizens, giving them more time to serve the Savior.

At the same time, it can also save some important figures in the empire.

Iron Man Manufacturing Technology...

Ah? ? ?
When Ron saw these words, he was shocked and became alert.

He hurried on to read on.

...The data module has been destroyed due to long-term erosion by chaos, making it impossible to produce intelligent iron men.

"Alas, that would be useless!"

Ron sighed and looked at it for a while, but he was not interested.

As he was flipping through the pages, he suddenly saw a technology that interested him.

Wideband signal projector: a signal transmitter that can achieve ultra-long-distance directional signal projection.

According to data calculations, its signal can span several star regions.

This thing is good.

He was worrying about how to build a larger psychic network so that the signal of the psychic network could cover areas outside the territory.

That is the key technology for the future development of the territory.

Useful!
Ron immediately sent the technical information to Cole.

Let him research and produce a signal projector that is compatible with the spiritual network as quickly as possible.

Allow more areas to access the Internet.

……

Two years later.

Inside the network.

A huge mountain of metal stood, with various types of composite metals piled together randomly.

Rumble.

Ron stood in front of the mountain of metal and watched the transport ship dump more metal onto the mountain.

Such a huge amount of metal material, and an alloy at that, is of immeasurable value.

However, he did all this just to keep a pet.

Or rather, a mount.

Roar!
In the sky, a figure flew low.

The dark pillar of infernal fire poured down, and the alloys that were being roasted melted slightly.

boom--

The huge object fell in front of Ron, and smoke and dust rushed towards him.

When the smoke and dust cleared, a four-meter-long hell dragon with a dark red metallic luster suddenly appeared.

It has a majestic posture, with magma flowing on the lines of its metal body, and with every breath, a breath like lava gushes out.

Make all living beings fear it.

"Chiyan, come here!"

Ouch.

When the young Hell Dragon saw Ron, it immediately rolled over excitedly like a puppy.

Then it crawled over, bent over and lowered its head, as if it wanted its owner to touch its head.

"Hiss, it's quite hot..."

Ron raised his hand and stroked the head of the hell dragon named "Red Flame".

You can clearly see the high temperature rising from Chi Yan's body.

Fortunately, his body was strong enough. If it were an ordinary person, his hands would have been burnt long ago.

Several years ago, Ron obtained a Hell Dragon egg.

After hatching it out of the Demon Research Institute, he spent a lot of time and effort to cultivate intimacy with it.

The Red Flame has now been blessed and infused with a large amount of dark energy stored by the Little Sun.

This can not only consume the negative energy of the little sun, but also accelerate and strengthen the growth of the red flame.

Due to the gentle nature of the little sun, the Red Flame did not completely become a chaos demon engine, but instead turned into some kind of metal engine life.

As its size grows larger.

Ron kept the Red Flame in the web channel and continuously provided it with expensive composite metals as nutrients.

After Chi Yan was intimate with his master for a while, he returned to the metal mountain and lay down.

The blazing energy in its body continuously melts the metal and assimilates it into its own metal body.

Looking at Chi Yan, Ron was very satisfied. He could feel that the other party's size and strength were slowly increasing.

According to the Demon Research Institute's estimates, the height of an adult Chiyan could reach 100 meters, and there is still room for further growth.

Once it becomes large enough, it can be used as an engine vehicle and go out into combat.

This is not only much more maneuverable than ordinary vehicles, but also has greater destructive power.

On the battlefield, the ferocious Demon Eater flew over riding a hundred-meter-long Hell Dragon.

Enough to intimidate the enemies.

After all, this size makes it much more powerful than the Titan.

Drop drop-

Ron pulled out his datapad and clicked on the comm.

"Lord Savior!"

Kaul's big mechanical face was on the screen, and he was quite excited:
"The broadband signal projector has passed the test and can be put into mass production immediately. In addition, the mechanical forum has been completely updated and revised!"

these past two years.

The territory absorbed a considerable portion of the technology he brought back last time, and the fleets, army groups, battle groups and other armed forces became even more powerful.

Many heavy war weapons were also produced.

And Kaul devoted most of his time to the research of projectors and spiritual network-related technologies.

He was eager to produce results quickly.

Because this matter involves online communication with the outside world, or more precisely, communication with the Mechanicus.

Kaur wants other geeks to enjoy the fun of surfing the Internet.

He was sure the grease guys would love this stuff.

Of course, these are just surface level stuff.

What Ron coveted more was the various technologies accumulated by the Mechanicus over tens of thousands of years, including forbidden technologies.

Those oil guys are too fond of hoarding technology, even technology they can't use themselves.

The Adeptus Mechanicus database is one thing, but the mechanics themselves have even more in their possession.

Who knows how much valuable knowledge is hidden in their electronic brains.

Moreover, under the constraints of doctrine, engine oil guys are not very willing or dare not share technology.

I can only study on my own secretly, and when I encounter a bottleneck, I just bear it in and work it out slowly.

Now, Ron provides them with a new, safe and anonymous platform - Mechanical Forum.

The mechanical forum has a vast amount of knowledge and technology.

It allows the oil guys to discuss freely without worrying about the corrosion of chaos and fully enjoy the spirit of the Internet.

They can use gear coins to unlock any knowledge they want, and can also purchase Xiao Ling's terrifying computing power to assist in research.

Of course, if you want to earn Gear Coins, you must first share a little of your own insignificant knowledge.

In this way, any knowledge shared on the forum will become an asset of the forum.

If other mechanics want to unlock it, they have to contribute knowledge and obtain gear coins to unlock it.

In this way, a handling fee will be charged for this back and forth.

It's a huge profit, much faster than doing research on your own in the territory.

Of course, the territory only provides some rare knowledge and technology, and those key technologies will never be leaked.

To prevent some ambitious oil men from using it to rebel.

Most of the time, it's just getting something for nothing.

Of course, even so, those oil men can enjoy great benefits.

After listening to Cole's report, Ron immediately ordered the mass production of signal transmitters and their large-scale deployment across the galaxy.

Build a network covering more galactic areas as quickly as possible.
-
in the starry sky.

The ship from Ers quietly dropped an anti-detection signal projector disguised as a meteorite.

Then, the ships left and continued to deliver to other star regions.

Huangquan No. 8 Forging World.

Clang.

A mechanical box fell to the ground...
