Chapter 296 - On the Eve of Departure
Corax felt a little speechless at his biological father's request.

But as a down-to-earth idealist, Corax could understand why his father asked him to do this... Although he was not very clear about the value and significance of the ghost engine and liquid geometry technology, the fact that it was a superluminal engine was enough to cheer Corax up.

Although the Webway has been repaired, it is not yet at the point where you can race in it. Moreover, there are still a lot of hidden threats in the Webway, such as the Dark Eldar. Similarly, although the Webway is located outside the Warp, the Warp demons still have the technology to interfere with the Webway.

In this case, the hyperdrive, a machine that runs completely in the material realm, can directly avoid being affected by the warp - as long as a few Great Knights of Annihilation of the Sisters of Silence are arranged nearby, there is no need to worry about the contamination of the evil magic of the warp.

With the faster-than-light communication and travel technology that bypasses the warp, the Empire is now fully capable of launching a new round of great expeditions on the basis of the original ones - it is no longer restricted by the Astronomican and can directly reach the dark areas outside the Astronomican.

Although the Empire claims to cover the entire Milky Way, if you insist, it is only the Milky Way illuminated by the Astronomican, not the entire Milky Way. And now... everything is possible.

Compared to Corax who needed a brief silence for psychological preparation, Guilliman didn't seem to mind at all - hey, conscience is a useful thing!
As for whether it was stealing or taking...does it matter? Isn't the most favorite thing for yellow-skinned people to do to steal chickens and dogs?
Thinking in his heart, Corax nodded and said, "I will try my best."

"Don't worry too much, just take it slow." The Emperor fell into a brief silence, then said, "Five thousand troops, four thousand Primaris Space Marines, one thousand Guards. Corax, you will be the commander, Constantine, you will be Corax's adjutant. Equip the Primarch Dreadnought, and set off in three days. Summon the Mechanical Archmagus Belisarius Cawl, and complete all equipment upgrades, specializations, and modification and enchantment of kryptonite and red solar radiation weapons in the shortest possible time."

After hearing the Emperor's words, Guilliman on the side nodded in agreement. He did not think it was a pity to throw 4,000 elite veterans of the Primaris Space Marines to the battlefield of another world to face a group of human gods - well, it was still a bit painful.

Compared to ordinary Space Marines, the birth of the Primaris Space Marines originated from Guilliman's belief that the Empire needed to face a more cruel, darker and malicious universe after Horus's birthday. So Guilliman and Cawl, two Space Marine perverts, hit it off and decided to build a new generation of Space Marines, Promax, which are bigger, stronger, more powerful, and possibly smarter.

In the original timeline, when Guilliman woke up 40,000 years later, Cawl had already selected talents from various worlds through various means, and put them into biological chambers for hibernation. During the hibernation process, the memories of battles and wars would constantly be played in their brains. In this way, more than 100,000 experienced Primaris Space Marine recruits were created.

But now, because of his early awakening, and the fact that current technology is not as mature as it will be four thousand years later, Cawl has only produced more than 40,000 Primaris Space Marines.

Now, with the Emperor's awakening, a lot of information has been made public, and Cawl's research has also been legally recognized - the Emperor is the greatest law. So a group of original Space Marine veterans have also been upgraded to Primaris Space Marines.

These Primaris Space Marines who were upgraded from the original Space Marine companies were naturally the four thousand elites discussed by the Emperor and Guilliman.

Such a group of elite Space Marines who are good at fighting and have strong subjective initiative in extremely harsh environments, upgraded Primaris Space Marines, can easily be a company commander in the Codex. And now, such a group of elite Imperials is very likely to suffer heavy losses, or even be wiped out... "If the whole army is wiped out..." Although he knew that what he said was very cruel, and even said that it was no different from the Emperor's previous inhumanity. But considering the overall interests of the Empire. After a brief silence, Guilliman still said: "We may be able to obtain some valuable spoils through formal channels, such as gifts... If so, it will all be worth it."

"There is more than one mission opportunity. What we need are experienced veterans." The Emperor said calmly: "Only experienced veterans can get more spoils through battlefield points in such a high-level mission world."

After hearing the Emperor's words, Guilliman nodded.

Battlefield points are an opportunity for a fair trade between the World Tree and the Emperor
Because according to the previous deal between Ron and the Emperor, the Emperor should perform the task without reason or compensation. However, in order to ensure the Emperor's enthusiasm, Ron opened a points mall for the Emperor alone - very unscrupulous, items that cost ten yuan in the normal system currency mall can be magnified more than twenty times in the points mall.

But it's okay, because the empire's base is large enough. Just during this period of development, many useful armor modification, enchantment, and equipment enhancement technologies have been developed.

Guilliman, Corax and a few other people in the Empire also knew about the deal between the Emperor and Roan - because many chapters had already carried out similar expeditions. However, the previous expeditions were mostly small-scale battles. Even if the enemy was strong, as long as they were willing to make sacrifices, they could complete the mission and obtain some precious technology from other worlds.

But enemies like the Kryptonians, and advanced technology like the hyperdrive...

No wonder all the veterans have to be mobilized.

"Then I will go and prepare for the relevant work." Guilliman sighed tiredly. "With four thousand elite Primaris participating in the Glorious Crusade at the same time, there will be gaps in all aspects of the Empire. I need to prepare a plan to shrink the defense line in advance to prevent the Chaos forces from taking the opportunity to launch a surprise attack to affect the Empire's front and then be defeated."

"Ah."

With the brief meeting over, the entire Empire soon began a new round of work for this glorious expedition. The huge war machine began to operate, and the Honor Guard on standby on the Phalanx - an elite group of Space Marines selected for world missions quickly descended on Terra and entered the underground of the Terra Palace under the command of the Imperial Guards to make final preparations.
