Warhammer 40 A New Hope

"You should know that the reason why we tolerate you and coexist peacefully with you is largely because of them..."

"We are well aware of the hatred of intelligent creatures towards us. This is not the first time. So what about fellow humans?" Kaxiu said. "Although we are not from the same world, we should be able to get along better, right?"

In the previous agreement, the world of Shubuzi was jointly managed by the Human Empire and the Necrons. Although the Necrons were in the majority, some carefully selected imperial officials arrived in this world and provided some management and technological support to the young humans in this world. However, the leadership of the world of Shubuzi did not accept this good intention. In their view, these humans from other worlds were also a "threat".

"Of course, you can also choose to continue strangling yourself to death. This is your choice. If the threat that may not exist at all and returning to the previous situation of intrigue and chaos are really that important to you and this planet..."

"After all, we have used a special method to accomplish what Ozpin has always wanted to achieve, right?"

"That's not peace..."

"In your human terms, if a creature looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, what's the difference between it and a real duck?"

"Perhaps, as you think, we do have dark thoughts, but for now, isn't this kind of peace what you are pursuing?"

"You may be wondering why I should help you - I want Penny's manufacturing drawings." Kaxiu said. "It's the manufacturing drawings of the robot with soul and self-awareness."

"After we have a soul, we need to think more about the choice of body."

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

"So, why are the four of you still here? And there are four more?"

Zhang Yi, who returned to the ring world, looked at Ruby, Qiang and others who were still on the resort planet and raised questions.

"Since when did you sneak back? Do you want your parents to cause trouble for me?"

"We have already gone back once, but some time after we went back, General James found us and said he wanted us to complete a mission." The more mature Weiss said. "Because of you, the number of threatening beasts in our world has begun to decrease, and the hunter profession needs to be reformed."

"General James wants to turn the hunters into a team that can explore the unknown world and create more value for the human race, but it is clear that we don't know how to do it."

"So you came back with the returning personnel and material transport vehicles when I opened the portal to your world?" Zhang Yi said. "What about the mature hunters? Your hunter licenses should still be..."

(The protagonist will not check on everyone who needs to go through the portal. He will open a large portal at some point and leave after maintaining it for a while. On the one hand, this step of checking is the job of other people, and on the other hand, he has been quite busy recently.)

Before Zhang Yi finished speaking, he saw the hunter licenses in the hands of Ruby and others - they were newly issued, and even had the seal of the Human Empire.

"We are now official hunters!" Ruby proudly showed Zhang Yi her hunter license. "We can now contribute to our world."

"We are just the vanguard team. General James said that we were sent here because we are familiar with you." Black said. "The series of problems caused by Seren and the Necrons have not been completely resolved. The hunters with rich experience will join this operation after solving the problems over there."

"We discussed with O'Neill before... should we call him grandpa or uncle?" Yang said. "Anyway, he agreed."

"Dad, Mom, and Uncle agreed, although they seemed to have had a quarrel with General James." (Ruby)

"I can't imagine how your parents and Uncle Kro agreed to his idea..." Zhang Yi said, and then looked at O'Neill (Little Emperor) who was sunbathing. "So what are you doing, old man?"

"No~"

385. As we all know, the Mechanicus has a way of killing people.

Moon World

Zhang Yi did not let Ruby and others come to this world - this world is very dangerous, even if the emperor himself (referring to O'Neill) came, there is a possibility of failure.

Although they have obtained the so-called hunter license, it is fair to say that they have never seen a real battle - on the other hand, the various battles in the Warhammer world are too super-model for anyone in Shubuzi.

Believe it or not, if Seren, the final boss, were placed in some worlds, he could easily be dealt with.

If they really want to have the ability to explore other different worlds as General James said, then they still have a lot to learn.

The task Zhang Yi gave them was to visit [Lobotomy Corporation] and [Ruined Library] first - no matter whether they went or not, it would always be a good idea to get to know them.

Afterwards, Zhang Yi brought some of his descendants and came to the Yueji world through the portal. The great sage Kohl had been waiting for a long time.

Among so many worlds that he had visited, the Moon World was undoubtedly the one that attracted the Mechanicus. All kinds of strange and unimaginable technologies gathered in this city, and of course there were also various kinds of anomalies.

But as mentioned before, due to their unfamiliarity with this world and the obstruction of their actions by various forces, the Mechanicus has not been able to obtain various technological creations smoothly.

Based on the information they knew and Zhang Yi's previous warnings to them, it was impossible for them to openly turn against the ruler of this city.

To put it in Zhang Yi’s own words: If you mess with [Company A] and are caught and flown around by its minions, I will not be responsible for saving you.

The first thing Zhang Yi had to face when he arrived at the Rose World was piles of documents.

"I'm going back now. I don't care what happens in this world!"

Most matters can be handled and decided by some people in the Mechanicus, but some matters concerning the various [Singularity Technology] companies still require Zhang Yi to take a look.

After all, no one knows if there will be any pitfalls in these things...

In fact, there are not many things that Zhang Yi needs to decide. The first one is about the contract of [R Company]. If the [Fourth Army] can join the current Mechanicus, it will definitely be a huge help, even if due to technical problems, this army can only survive for a few weeks.

"It's acceptable. Just drag them out and send them away. They've already been sent away more than once." Zhang Yi said. "Even if we don't accept it, the [Fourth Army] that has failed repeatedly due to energy problems will be slaughtered by [R Company], so they won't refuse our order."

Then came the negotiations or threats from Thumb's second-in-command. Even though they had failed repeatedly during the excavation of the ruins of [L Company] and many people were sent to the [Ruins Library], they still could not accept that their achievements were being reaped by the people created by the Mechanical God, even though they had no achievements at all.

"Why not just find a 'Dark Dumb' or something like that to take care of them? They're not that strong. Roland alone could have wiped out an entire branch."

"It's a good opportunity for you to get familiar with the way things are handled in this world, and train a suitable high-level or even [color]-level finisher for us, who can handle various things for you in many cases."

"There's no need to go to the Library. Although there's a lot of technology in there, it's also very dangerous. Two Colors, a Tuner, and a bunch of dangerous Abnormality pages. Even if you throw a Primarch in there, it might fail."

"Anyway, you won't be able to get in without signing. You can send some unimportant people in to see if you can reach some agreement with Angela. Although the possibility is not high, you can try and exchange the technology of turning machines into humans."

“But if we want to exchange technology, especially related to [Singularity Technology], we must keep it confidential. Those companies that own these Singularity Technologies are likely to call us directly.”

After dealing with three incidents in a row that required him to make decisions, Zhang Yi looked at the final report.

"Let me see... Shit?"

Looking at the plan report in his hand, Zhang Yi couldn't help but curse out loud.

"Are they really not afraid of being beaten up by Carmen and Ain?"

. . . . . .

Now that the headquarters of [L Company] disappeared, its branches collapsed, and the library was moved to the suburbs, it seems that everything related to [L Company] is either buried in the ground that has not been dug out, or is kept in the library by Angela.

Among them, there is something called the "Golden Branch", which is now needed by many organizations including companies.

This golden branch-like existence is believed to be a high-purity energy aggregate, but for Zhang Yiyu, who can see the whole story from a God's perspective, he knows that this golden branch-like thing may be a nerve of Carmen.

In order to cure the so-called "urban disease", Carmen dug out her brain and all her nerves when she was at her wits' end, and made them into a so-called "bucket" to salvage what they needed from the "well" they found.

Now Carmen's wish has come true, the [light] has spread throughout the entire city, and these golden branches are the 'leftovers' she left behind.

Similarly, because of Zhang Yi, the Mechanicus also knew some of the stories about [L Company] Singularity Technology and Carmen, and they naturally knew these inside stories.

Abnormalities can not only be produced through human emotional fluctuations, but can also be captured from outside the city (the Black Forest) and salvaged from the so-called "well" - and the "quality" of these abnormalities salvaged from the "well" is often very good.

But now, the only 'bucket' that can draw water from the 'well' has disappeared, and all the relevant information is in the library. It is impossible to get that ready-made thing.

So why not try to make another 'bucket' for the Mechanicus yourself?

The people of the Mechanicus are very clear about the process of Carmen's transformation into a "bucket". Although there is no specific data, as long as they can get a "bucket" similar to Carmen, it will not take much time to reproduce the "Mind Visualization" singularity technology that "L Company" once possessed.

In Zhang Yi's opinion, this was undoubtedly courting death.

On the one hand, Carmen and Ain, who have disappeared, are not really gone. They just become another kind of existence, existing in the entire city, and testing people in their ears when they experience drastic emotional fluctuations.

On the other hand, as the "heirs" of the [Lobotomy Corporation], Angela and others could not watch the people of the Mechanicus replicate everything that had been done to blaspheme Carmen.

Therefore, Zhang Yi rejected the proposal of the Mechanicus without hesitation. Perhaps one or two [Color] Finishers could not fight against the Mechanicus with a large number of reserve forces, but they could definitely cause destruction - Zhang Yi even doubted that it would be no problem for Sister Hong to dismantle a small Titan, not to mention Carmen and Ain who had already become spiritualized.

But as the Mechanicus said, if one wants to fully master the technology of [Divine Preparation], then [Golden Branch], as a technological product of [L Company], is indeed an item very worthy of study.

"Well, let me check the time now. The library has flown to the suburbs, and all the major organizations are collecting the Golden Bough..."

"Has [Bianyu Company] already taken shape? Should we snatch it from them? Or should we look for some nearby [L Company] branches to see if we can dig it out?"

"Hmm...my head hurts, so why do I have to decide these things?"

"Are you really confident that my people can do whatever they want?" Archsage Caul, a "clean stream" in the Mechanicus, said to Zhang Yi. "If you hadn't been suppressing them, they might have already started another "patent war" as you said."

"Didn't the presence of the dwarves make them more restrained?"

"Most of the Mechanicus hate the dwarves, and they think those subhumans are trying to gain their support." Cawl replied. "I don't, I have a good relationship with some dwarven runesmiths."

"... Then you are awesome..."

Afterwards, Zhang Yi began to think again.

"Well... let's just go for it."

"Sign up the [Fourth Army] and ask them to help us search for the Golden Bough at the nearby [L Company] branch. I'll lead the team to see if we can get something out of those people from the [Bianyu Company]."

"Well, it should be fine."

386. The Four Gods’ Backhand

In a remote area of ​​the Warhammer world, people on the entire planet have fallen into an abnormal carnival and joy. The corruption of Slaanesh has infected the entire planet.

The most basic methods of pursuing happiness and joy can no longer satisfy those believers, and they pursue more extreme enjoyment.

Human skins still covered in fresh blood were hung on both sides of the road like flags; crazy writers used human blood, internal organs and flesh to paint; Slaanesh believers covered in blood, with creepy smiles on their faces, chopped off their own heads.

This is just an extremely common scene in this dark and desperate world. A planet corrupted and controlled by an evil god and his followers has caused everyone to fall into endless extreme enjoyment. This is very common in this world.

But this time the situation was different. A small Eldar fleet appeared near the planet for some reason, and contrary to its usual practice, it deployed several ground troops towards the planet.

And at the bottom of this planet, a male being who looked like an Eldar was leading some relatively normal humans to fight among the crazy Slaanesh believers and low-level demons.

This is not accurate. The Eldar did not lead these humans. Instead, these humans actively followed him, as if they hoped to follow him to escape from this planet that had become hell.

The Eldar male wielding dual swords fought his way out of the encirclement of a large number of enemies like a god of war. Even so, Slaanesh's troops continued to attack him one after another.

"Capture him and offer him to the Lord of Pleasure! We will..."

brush--!

It seemed as if the leader was cut in two by the elf, blood gushing out.

"Call out Shalish! You minions!" the male Eldar warrior shouted at the enemy in front of him. "She/he/it will never escape my pursuit until one of us is dead!"

When he led the few humans to attack the upper city, the foreign Eldar troops were also following an Eldar prophet and rushing towards his position.

. . . . . .

Garden of Nurgle

"After all this time, I finally found you, dear father."

Under the seat of Nurgle, the Great Unclean One - Ku'gath, was burying a small, still wriggling ball of flesh into the center of the garden. The next moment, a corrupt and twisted giant tree rose from the ground.

"Rotigus has gone to find delicious 'food' for you. We all miss you very much, father."

"You don't need to worry. During the time you were gone, everyone was still 'loving each other', including the 'panda' you said you loved and the Eldar god."

"Yes, we will rescue you from that cage, but please rest for a while now."

"We will give you a great plague to celebrate your freedom."

. . . . . .

Inside the Webway, the Dark Eldar City - Commorros

This is the home of the Dark Eldar, located within the Webway.

Unlike ordinary Eldar, the Dark Eldar use a special method to resist Slaanesh's sucking of their souls - extreme emotional feelings.

And now that Slaanesh has been imprisoned in a cage in the solar system, they no longer have to worry about the threat from Slaanesh - so they have more fun.

They missed a lot, but also gained a lot. When the entire galaxy was in chaos, they gave full play to the Eldar's nature of stabbing in the back and made a lot of money from various races.

Evelyne warned them of this, but most of the Dark Eldar ignored her warnings and continued to drink, play, and 'tack on' others.

Now, their behavior has become somewhat unbearable for the Eldar and the Human Empire, led by Evelyne, but they are in the safe network and don't care about it.

What they care about now is a human who suddenly appeared and won several consecutive victories in the arena?

Brush - tear it!

The giant beast captured by the Dark Eldar was torn into pieces by the giant axe covered with blood and flesh. All the spectators cheered for the gladiator's yet another consecutive victory.

Now the entire galaxy has become peaceful once again, and the great enemy Slaanesh that they have always been worried about has temporarily disappeared. Such a peaceful scene has made them numb.

So much so that for such a long time, they did not notice that there were many things wrong with this human gladiator who was winning consecutive games.

They also didn't realize that the Khorne demons, who had been ignoring them recently, seemed to be hanging around Commorros.

It was the Eldar's unrestrained enjoyment that led to the birth of Slaanesh and the subsequent fall of the Eldar. Now this scene seems to be repeated on the Dark Eldar.

But this time it might be a lot bloodier...
