Warhammer 40 A New Hope

In order to ensure its integrity and the integrity of any data contained therein, Space Marines belonging to the Imperial Fists boarded the station and occupied it.
Now, just as the technical sergeant who restored the data said, the mechanical race had intentionally deleted the data due to the long time gone by, and not much useful information was preserved. However, they still found one useful thing - a relatively detailed star map of the galaxy, which recorded the positions of various planets and space stations.
After the star map is further confirmed to be safe, it will be uploaded to the fleet database for sharing, which will greatly help the expedition fleet's progress.
After leaving a small number of personnel in the space station, the fleet continued to move towards the nearest planet.
This expedition will surely be extremely long...

Planet C01
The demi-human girl was recognized by everyone for her superb mechanical skills and was accepted as a member of the settlement.
It’s not that the Mechanical Priest’s skills are not good. The Mechanical Priest 321 has good attainments in many aspects, but they are comprehensive but not in-depth, while the demi-human girl specializes in machinery.
It is certain that 40K's technological level exceeds that of most of the edge worlds. No matter how bad life is there, it cannot be worse than that of a border world biome that may not even have been developed for a few hundred years.
The entire settlement therefore began to develop and expand further, building more functional areas, constructing more residential areas, and growing more food to accommodate more immigrants who might arrive in the future.
In order to control costs, some special, locally modified weapons for Space Marines are also being manufactured and tried out. After all, when a quad-barreled high-speed machine gun (four high-speed machine guns bundled together) with an enlarged caliber and a bolter fires a round at the same time, any target hit will be shattered to pieces, and the corresponding bullets can still be produced or purchased at this stage.
In this case, the [Astral Knights] have explored several nearby gathering places and cleared out those malicious human or non-human gathering places - most of the time only two Space Marines were used.
Now that the fleet has left the fixed communication range, the [Astral Knights] have decided on two subsequent goals - to establish contact with [Axis Security] and to try to repair the abandoned, near-Earth space station in space.
There is still a long way to go~

2077 World
Night City~City of Dreams~
There is nothing wrong with this statement in some aspects. After all, there are a lot of things to do in this city every day, and everyone can find something that suits them.
But, this is also bullshit - everyone knows that this city is actually the territory of a big company. Only those company executives can live a comfortable life every day, and the others? At most, they can only have leftovers.
For ordinary people, they may encounter gang fights, cyberpsychopaths, and scavengers going out to restock at any time, and then they will become another corpse that needs to be taken care of.
The pitiful police force of the NCPD is totally inadequate to protect every ordinary person - sometimes, they can't even protect themselves.
The lower-class urban areas without a large police force can be said to be a paradise for all kinds of gangs. Although they can't do whatever they want, it's almost the same.
However, there are exceptions to everything, right?
A scavenger's den
"I didn't expect that people would come here so late at night these days... Diablos (damn it)..."
Jack Wells, who received a pick-up mission, drove to a scavenger's den late at night.
"In this horrible weather and this horrible place, if I wait for five minutes and there's no one or something is wrong, I'll Conducir y salir (drive away)."
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared and then disappeared again, but this did not attract Jack's attention.
砰
"Hmm?" The faint sound of hitting caught Jack's attention. It came from the scavenger's nest. "These scumbags are still doing business this late?"
砰
Bang bang bang!
"Oh my god, what's going on? Are these kidney-stealing Luchas fighting among themselves?"
The increasingly clear sounds of hitting and gunfire gradually made Jack aware of the troops.
"Whatever, let's go!" Jack said as he prepared to run away. "I'm not here to die..."
boom!
At this moment, flames suddenly appeared and rushed out from where the group of people were taking kidneys, along with people's curses, screams and shouts of fear.
Boom!
"MD encountered a ghost!"
"Fire! Fire! Kill this...ah!"
"Go drive! Go drive! Get out of here!"
Bang—crack!
Jack saw with his own eyes a street sweeper fly past his car and smash into the wall on the other side of the street, turning into a pool of meat paste, and then more people flew out.
"Diablos! Go!"
Jack stepped on the accelerator and prepared to leave immediately, and at this moment a string of blue lightning exploded not far away, ending almost all the gunshots and human voices, and temporarily paralyzing most of the surrounding equipment.
This also includes Jack's car...
"Damn it! At a time like this..."
thump
Jack heard the sound of footsteps. He raised his head stiffly and looked at the figure walking towards him with flames on his back.
"Mom bless me, as long as...
boom!
The figure was faster than expected. He had already arrived next to Jack's car and put one hand on the door.
"Has the car I called arrived?"
"Hey~ Isn't this Jack?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I still don’t feel very well, but I have to consider going to work…
There's always something wrong, it makes me feel uncomfortable...
Can you just get it over with, instead of hanging on to that point where it’s both good and bad, getting worse and not getting worse…
My head hurts...
176. I am not a good person
The flames burned in the darkness. Zhang Yi walked among the people on the ground, checking their injuries.
"There are no large lacerations, no perfect or weirdly regular wounds..."
"Should I count the casualties or something, ah..."
"This arm is useful, but it's too frustrating..."
At this time, a scavenger who still had strength struggled to raise his head, and the gun in his hand trembled as he pointed it at Zhang Yi from behind.
At this moment, under the heavy seal, the symbol of Tzeentch lit up, and then the scavenger's prosthetic body was instantly invaded and overloaded, paralyzed to the ground.
Bang!
A tall Space Marine appeared at this time and stomped the man to death.
"Do we need to kill everyone?" (Zhang Yi)
"...at least for now..." (Maxim)
"Your conservative estimate is at least five years, right~" (Zhang Yi)
Having said that, Zhang Yi waved his hand, indicating that he was leaving.
. . . In Jack's car . . .
"So, you went into the kidney-stealing territory alone to test your cool new left-hand prosthesis?" Jack said as he drove the repaired car. "Genial!"
"If you install this thing, you will know that it is not so good..."
"I understand that these high-tech things may have some tempers and make you feel uncomfortable, but you can't deny that a high-tech prosthetic arm that can easily take down an entire nest of scavengers is cool."
In Jack's car, listening to this person who made countless players sad talking to him, Zhang Yi gradually relaxed.
In recent times, Zhang Yi has been familiarizing himself with the use of his arms through actual combat. While ensuring his proficiency in using them, he also has to ensure that everything he does when using them is based on what he wants, and not what some four bastards want.
Sometimes I would go find some scavengers to practice with while I was secretly protecting them, and other times I would have to fight with the Space Marines - and most of the time I would be beaten by them...
At this stage, Zhang Yi is still far from being a match for some Space Marine veterans, but his progress has indeed amazed everyone...
It shouldn't be said that it's his improvement, it should be said that it's the improvement of his left arm...
His left arm is learning independently and at the same time sharing certain learning results with Zhang Yi, its owner.
In the current world of 2077, Zhang Yi, who does not have any prosthetics, can already use his left arm to do things that only hackers in 2077 can do. At the same time, his arm is still adapting and changing, just like the essence of Tzeentch...
It's adapting to a different world...
It's not a good rest, but it's not bad news either. Maybe when I reach the dnd world, this supernatural insulator of mine can also connect to the magic network and use some cool spells... Although this also means that Tzeentch may also gain this ability.
But at this stage, Jianqi has no chance of getting anything from Zhang Yi - the triple seal gives the Emperor a headache just looking at it...
Jingle ~
At this time, Zhang Yi's old-fashioned mobile phone, which was used as a local communicator, rang. Zhang Yi picked it up and saw that it was David.
"Hey?"
[Do you have any idea to help us delay the NCPD and the Terrorist Squad? ! ] (David)
"...Mann finally couldn't hold on any longer?" Zhang Yi said, calculating the time. "It should be this time..."
[You know all this? ]
"No, I do not know."
In the original plot, after going through all kinds of things, Mann's team finally caught the target person and began to try to extract the corresponding information from his brain. At this time, Mann's cyberpsychosis problem broke out, which directly led to the first reorganization of David's team.
The Mechanicus, including the Space Marines, had little interest in David and his companions' stories - their lives and experiences were similar to those of the lower-class residents of the hive, and although they were not everywhere, they were definitely not rare.
Therefore, if Zhang Yi really wants to help David and his group, he can only help himself, and no one else will help these irrelevant people.
But on the other hand, for the sake of the safe research and discussion of the Mechanicus members in the 2077 world, it was impossible for Zhang Yi to go there alone.
The group of mechanics initially thought that this world was not bad. There were many things worth learning and analyzing, and it could indeed make up for many things that the empire lacked at this stage. However, they felt that there was a lack of heavyweight things that were attractive enough to them - it felt a bit tasteless.
The current development of the situation is similar to what Zhang Yi knows. Mann's nerves and brain can no longer bear the excessive installation of prosthetics, and he suffers from involuntary convulsions and hallucinations from time to time.
Qiwei still failed to dodge and was punched. As a result, the intruder was replaced by Lucy, and this "graphics card girl" was just like the original history, except for some unexpected things.
"Your problem cannot be solved by delaying the Terrorist Squad, if you want to save Mann." Zhang Yi said. "He is already dying, isn't he?"
【I know, but...】(David)
"Sell it to us~" Zhang Yi suddenly said. "I can't guarantee that he can be saved, but if he dies, at least you still have a place to commemorate him, right?"
【You!】 (David)
"I'm just giving you a suggestion. We do need a lot of cyberpsychopaths here, don't we?" Zhang Yi said. "Or do you think you can save him?"
"Or let me put it in a nicer way. Martis will go out in the name of capturing cyberpsychopaths, and use this to prevent other forces from intervening..."
"Then there will be no NCPD or Terrorist Squad involved, but..."
【...But what? 】(David)
"We are not responsible for saving him." (Zhang Yi)
The Oil Man could not and would not waste his energy, time and materials to rescue an unknown minor character in Night City. The best result would probably be to give him to Zhang Yi for training - at that time, rescuing him would actually be a bonus.
【...What will happen to Mann?】 (David)
"You can't expect the words of a rich young man (referring to Zhang Yi) to carry much weight, David~"
【. . . . . . 】
David remained silent, while Zhang Yi, who was already in Jack's car, could already see the suspended car belonging to the terrorist mobile team flying into the distance.
"You'd better think about it quickly, the cops are about to arrive~" Zhang Yi said to David. "Although I'm not a good person, this is indeed a way to help him."
【I can’t...】(David)
"Then just watch him die~" Zhang Yi said. "Or do you have any way to save him?"
【. . . . . . 】David fell into silence. He called Zhang Yi out of helplessness. He did not expect the result to be like this.
