Warhammer, but Emperor's Chosen
Page 66
Similarly, it is enough for those with ulterior motives to do a lot of things.
Although Noah has spent most of his time sailing in the subspace since he became a Rogue Trader, and his perceived time is only half a year, a full six years have passed in the real universe.
There have been no visits from Rogue Traders for six years, and the planetary governors may not be as obedient as before.
"grown ups,"
White called out, "Please allow me to report: the journey through the warp is about to end. Ms. Cassia informed me that we have reached the anchor point and can go to the real universe. Ms. Navigator is waiting for permission to make the jump."
"Execute it."
Hundreds of men prepared for the jump to real space, and measurement chants filled the corridors to protect the ship and its crew.
The curtain of the real universe was torn apart by a brilliant purple crack, and the engine spewed plasma flames, trying to push the Stars from the strange and bizarre subspace into the darkness of the real universe.
The baffles of the portholes rose one after another, and the orange-yellow stars came into view.
The Stars floated quietly in the void, heading from Mandeville Point to the only planet with life in the galaxy.
Ganus.
Noah had just taken his command seat when a piercing alarm echoed through the bridge.
Nono warned loudly:
"The augury has detected the enemy, the Eldar!"
On the tactical panel, red runes representing threats kept flashing.
"Quantity." Noah asked calmly.
"At least three Shadow Hunter-class frigates, but there may be more outside the detection range of the auspex!"
Shadow Hunter-class frigates, the smallest members of the Eldar fleet, often appear in large numbers sailing in areas close to the Craftworld.
Like other Eldar ships, the Shadowhunter-class frigate is also equipped with a holographic field.
This unique Eldar technology is a true all-rounder, capable of rendering a ship nearly invisible to Auspex detection, or creating multiple random 'phantoms' over an area to confuse enemy ships' targeting sensors and reduce the accuracy of enemy weapons.
Normally, human fleets might not be able to detect them until they launch an attack.
The only drawback is that the holographic stand only works when the ship is in motion.
But the biggest advantage of the Eldar fleet is its high-speed maneuverability, so this cannot be considered a big flaw.
of course.
The invisibility and deceptiveness of the holographic standpoints are matched by their weak defenses. Although most of the time, the Eldar ships can rely on high-speed maneuvers to dodge incoming fire, once they are hit by artillery fire, the consequences are often catastrophic.
"Nova Cannon is ready!"
Nono looked at Noah.
Noah did not give the order immediately, but calmly said:
"Wait and see what they want to do. Nono, maintain the course and speed!"
It's not surprising that there are Eldar on Ganus, a group of Eldar whose craft world was destroyed are hiding there.
But these Eldar all fled here through the Webway, so where did they get so many space battleships?
Even though the red runes above his diaper were sounding the alarm, Noah was not going to act rashly.
Because Nono had a vague guess - these elves might be friendly forces!
If not, it doesn't matter. Even if he lets the Eldar attack first, they won't be able to break the Stars' void shield, but the Stars' nova cannon can easily tear apart their hulls.
White reported:
"Sir, we have established an astropathic signal with Ganus. They are waiting for your arrival at Governor Viat's estate."
Noah did not give an order immediately, but asked:
"Nono, are they still there?"
If the Eldar are still following, now is obviously not a good time to land.
"The Eldar warships have retreated. They are out of range of our auspex."
Noah thought thoughtfully. It seemed that his guess was correct. These elves were not here to cause trouble.
Noah thought for a moment and spoke slowly:
"Nono, you stay. Let the frigates be on guard in the surroundings. If the Eldar launch an attack, kill them. White, prepare the shuttle. Notify the Astra Militarum and be ready to land at any time."
Chapter 80: The Star God wants grass, and the elves also want grass!
The shuttle roared across the blue sky of Ganus and landed on the tarmac of the palace garden under the nervous and expectant eyes of the guards.
Under the escort of a small team of law enforcement officers, Noah walked out of the cabin and looked at the scenery in the distance.
The lush green forests stretch along the coastline, the mountains in the distance are vaguely visible, the waves hit the shore, splashing layers of spray. The afterglow of the sun is reflected on the sea, and the golden light spreads all over the ocean. Several unknown white local seabirds fly low over the beach and shallow sea. The fresh natural scenery makes people feel relaxed and happy.
This scene is so similar to that on Earth!
Unfortunately, there is no Earth now, only Holy Terra.
"grown ups!"
A noblewoman dressed in a gorgeous silk robe with gemstone implants protruding from her arms and neck called out in a beautiful voice. She walked towards him quickly with her maid, stopped one meter away from Noah, and bowed her head in an elegant manner:
"On behalf of the noble House of Vyat Abu Alam, I welcome you. My name is Vistanza Vyat Abu Alam af Coronus. By the grace of the Emperor, and the wishes of the Rogue Trader Theodora von Valancius, I currently serve as Planetary Governor of this world, and Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Armies."
Vistanza Viat raised her head slightly and observed Noah's expression:
"To be honest, it is quite unexpected that you are here to replace the honorable Ms. von Valancius."
Noah asked inconspicuously:
"When was the last time Theodora was here?"
Hearing him call Theodora by her name, Vistanza Viat frowned slightly, but still replied:
"Six Terra years ago."
"How often did she come before?"
"At least once a year, my Lord."
"What is she here for?"
"Supervise the payment of tithes, as well as the grain trade contracts between Ganus, Dagonus, Port of Departure, and other worlds. My lord, please rest assured that I have paid the tithes on time in the past few years and have never defaulted. The grain trade is also carried out as usual and has never been interrupted."
"Never interrupted?"
Noah was a little surprised, "No rebel attacks?"
"Rebels?"
Vistanza Viat's pupils shrank slightly, but she concealed it well and smiled awkwardly:
"My Lord, you are joking. There are no rebels in Ganus."
Noah frowned, as if he found it unbelievable:
"How come there are no rebels?"
Vistanza Viat's breathing stopped. This was the first time she saw someone hoping for a rebellion on the planet they ruled.
Vistanza Viat's tone was vaguely hostile:
"My Lord, what is your relationship with Lady Theodora?"
Noah observed his surroundings and said nonchalantly:
"Very strange. We have only met a few times."
Vistanza Viat frowned even more and carefully considered her words:
"My Lord, where is Lady Theodora now?"
"Do not worry."
Noah smiled and comforted, "You'll be able to see her soon."
As he spoke, Noah sighed in his heart.
Why did he wait so long before the rebellion started? Doesn't that make him look stupid?
Forget it, let’s not follow the script and let him do it himself.
"See Lady Theodora soon?"
Vistanza Viat's doubts grew even deeper, and her patience was almost exhausted.
She didn't understand why Lady Theodora would send such an impolite subordinate to visit her. Was Lady Theodora dissatisfied with her? But even if Lady Theodora wanted to replace her as the planetary governor, shouldn't she come in person?
As the planetary governor authorized by the Rogue Trader, only the Rogue Trader is qualified to replace her!
But why would Lady Theodora send this man to insult her?
Even a clay man has his temper. Vistansa Viat no longer lowered her head respectfully, but stared at Noah with cold eyes.
then.
She saw a gun barrel emitting blue light pressed against her forehead.
Vistanza Viat's expression froze, but her cold eyes instantly melted, and she forced a smile:
"Sir, you are..."
boom!
The plasma gun opened fire, and the blue light vaporized her head in the blink of an eye. The blood in the arteries gushed out, but was instantly vaporized by the residual high temperature. Until her headless body fell to the ground, the blood finally had a tilted channel and sprayed all over the ground like a column of water in a high-pressure water pipe.
This scene instantly stunned everyone present, including Vistanza Viat.
"S-Sir..."
Vistanza Viat collapsed to the ground in fear, staring at the body of her maid in shock.
She suddenly felt very fortunate. If the gun had not deviated, it would have been her instead of the maid who died!
But why?
The Governor's lips moved a few times, and he really wanted to ask the reason.
"What a blasphemy!"
Noah's cold voice spread throughout the garden where the helipad was located. He pointed his gun at Vistanza Viat and shouted coldly:
"The followers of the evil god are hiding among you. Do you dare to say that you know nothing about this? Vistanza Viat!"
"grown ups……"
Vistanza Viat's thoughts almost stopped, and her first reaction was, could it be that her belief in Ms. Sallys had been exposed?
But reason told her that she had not been exposed. If Noah was sure that she had betrayed the Emperor's faith, he would have shot her instead of waiting for her to explain.
She still has a chance to survive!
Vistanza Viat hurriedly began to argue:
"My Lord, please believe me, I know nothing about this matter..."
boom!
The plasma ball passed through her body, vaporizing her torso and head.
Noah raised his gun and looked at the guards in the square who instinctively raised their flashlights but did not dare to shoot. They looked at a loss and said coldly:
"Vistanza Viat colluded with heretics and plotted evil. In the name of the Emperor, I will punish her! You are pointing guns at me. Do you want to rebel with Vistanza Viat?"
Snapped!
One guard was so frightened that he couldn't even hold his gun steady. His legs went weak and he knelt on the ground. He tried to speak tremblingly, but his brain went blank due to fear and he couldn't utter a single word.
Noah glanced at him and said lightly:
"In the name of the Rogue Trader, as long as you are not involved in the rebellion, I will keep you safe!"
clap clap clap!
