DipNovel Chapter 204 Claws of Reality
Chapter 204 Claws of Reality
Yifeng stood in front of the large conference table and officially held the conference. We have just experienced the first time in history that the Weeper's misfortune did not affect us. We are gratified. The big bosses of the main army took the opportunity to gather together.
This is year 195 of the chapter calendar.
After the Dark Eldar incident, there were only a hundred of us left, and the total number of warriors sent by Anthony was only a hundred.
Ordinary Astartes do not take the second seed, so after the recruit training surgery in the fifth year, they are tormented to death. And we took it, so ten years later, when we entered the 11th Company, we began to struggle to death.
Three hundred new recruits, relying on the Mechanicus and their own inventory, can reach full armor. The second batch of four hundred recruits, plus the more than eighty high-magic-resistant warriors received now, can also reach full armor with the support of 500 deputy empires from Anthony. First.
That’s eight hundred newcomers.
If we start from the time when William disappeared, then add in the 100 imperial reinforcements sent by Anthony and the 100 soldiers transferred from Lian Leiluo.
In the past thirty years, the battle group has used the foundation and backup of the previous one hundred and fifty years to recruit nearly a thousand people.
Nearly 200 people were killed in the Dark Eldar incident. In other words, the troops directly under Yifeng now include 200 veterans and 800 recruits.
Never mind the poor combat effectiveness, the poor training of recruits, and the blank slate of gene seeds, they are still Primaris Astartes wearing power armor.
However, the next batch of five hundred recruits had no armor.
Moreover, please note that we are not in a batch every ten years, but have no time limit. If a certain transformation fails but the seeds are successfully recovered or are not used, you can directly start the next transformation. The seeds that come out can also be transformed immediately. The batches are only used for rough statistics.
In fact, four hundred recruits have been in the transformation tank for a year now, and half are expected to make it. Four years later, there will be a group of less than 600 new people who will start the transformation, and it is also expected that half of them will succeed.
In other words, the Chapter must maintain the efficiency of acquiring more than 500 pieces of armor every fifteen years on average to ensure that all warriors can wear power armor.
(Based on this estimate, the chapter’s calendar year is 204, which is when the first batch of recruits graduated after being able to walk meters through armor without backpacks. In that year, Xiaolan became the master of eight hundred Astartes)
Yifeng held this conference to update its strategic plan.
The trade fleet can only bring back a hundred armors in fifteen years, and they are all in short supply now. The unblessed version of Mavlek is produced in batches every fifteen years, which is only 300 copies. This is based on the fact that our 300 worlds have spent a lot of effort to help them obtain relevant materials.
(Other forces are maintaining Christina's "experiment" and the construction of her own forge world)
In other words, the main fleet cannot stand still and must at least acquire more than a hundred battle armors.
Now in the hands of Yifeng, the trade fleet composed of the Silent Fire and the Ambition-class cruiser has sailed away.
The Gothic-class battleship "Hurricane's Wrath" and the Mechanicum fireship, plus the Supreme Chongming, formed the defense fleet of the Three Hundred Worlds.
The Eternal Mountains and the Mother of Tears choose one of them to hold T'au forever until the Esoteric warships can fight.
The Dawnlight is still undergoing repairs. It was severely damaged in the last battle.
In this regard, Yifeng delivered an important speech.
First of all, regarding the problem of the fleet, we cannot focus on the immediate and cling to small interests. We must take a long-term view. Looting and relying on the production of the Mechanicum cannot solve long-term problems. We need our own shipyards to integrate production technology Take it into your own hands.
After thirty-seven years of construction, the first phase of the Forge World that we built (Christina:???) is about to be completed.
"Hua Hua Hua~~~" (Applause)
That galaxy has not yet been named. Now, the first thing in this meeting is to choose the name of our own first forging world.
After a heated discussion, Yifeng chose a name that both Oglin could understand, Stone City.
Low-key, low-key, you know!
(Stone City is Nanjing, where Zheng He’s treasure ships for his voyages to the West were built.)
Amidst all the question marks from everyone, the meeting went directly to the next stage.
As early as twenty years ago, the Scarlov Forge World had completed the cleaning of the battleships that Rogier had picked up. A total of one battleship skeleton and two cruiser skeletons were complete and could be re-invested in construction.
The weapons of the Necron caused devastating blows to the keels of other battleships. Now the important materials have been cleared out and handed over to Yifeng.
It is very difficult to resmelt this fine gold.
Its casting is related to the death of the star. At a temperature of nearly one billion, the adamantine keel will be mined to build a dragon.
Only the Adeptus Mechanicus has special casting capabilities for small adamantine, such as the adamantine skeleton of the Terminator armor. To build such a small thing often requires a machine tens of thousands of times larger than it.
The controllable nuclear fusion temperature is only 55 million degrees. Therefore, the melta weapon can penetrate the Terminator and kill the crew, but it is difficult to damage the adamantine skeleton, so the recovery and repair rate of the Terminator armor is very high.
So the broken adamantine keel is completely useless?
No, large Mechanicus are also capable of building, such as some Mechanicus that can build Lunar-class cruisers alone.
Skalov's world is small, but Mavlek's world is OK, at least he can perform well.
After a series of commercial fraud and material reselling operations, these fine gold fragments were sold to the Mavlek Mechanicus, and all were melted into special keels "for free".
Now, those keels have been successfully delivered, and Yifeng has six shaped special keels in his hands. What's the cost? Information about this keel.
This is the battleship Anos analyzed from the STC template fragments. It is larger than the Retribution-class battleship.
It seems that Maverick's statement that "battleships were picked up, we did not build battleships" was false.
At the same time, the Red Torrent Chapter also revealed to them that we have a complete and unprecedented large-scale battleship manufacturing technology.
This almost explicit information forced Mavlek to continue to accelerate the casting of Mark X type power armor in order to obtain the corresponding technology.
In the past, I had a piece of STC template fragment, and I asked Mavlek to work for me for two hundred years, building seven cruisers and two battleships (not delivered). The Mechanicus was willing to exchange it for a fragment after two hundred years.
Now, Yifeng plans to sell battleship-related technology to Mavlek bit by bit within six hundred years in exchange for more armaments.
Battleship technology worth two large fragments of STC must be stuck for a long time no matter what.
Stone City Foundry World began to establish corresponding production lines for various parts. This was another gold-eating behemoth, forcing Yifeng to go out to make money.
Regarding the current huge expenses, Yifeng decided to let the soldiers take the Mother of Tears battle barge to go out to "open source".
This proposal was passed after several hours of persuasion.
Yifeng will never trust the Mother of Tears to stay on Tau. I am even afraid that the Secret Cult warship will explode on its own. The other warriors are quite dissatisfied. They have warships at home, so why should they take the Weeper's ship.
The third thing is quite heretical.
Since Three Hundred Worlds is already a large territory, the war group alone can no longer make perfect planet-level strategic adjustments, and a serious governing body must be formed.
However, our chapter still tries to cover up the fact that it is a rebellion against the Third Reich.
The main construction departments are:
"Tax Guidance Group": Just by the name, you know what it does.
"Strategic Steering Group": headed by a Primaris think tank, mainly responsible for the defense construction and external expansion war of Three Hundred Worlds. All forces including Mortals and Astartes Guardsmen.
"Logistics Guidance Group": a traditional performing arts group that mainly interfaces with the taxation and strategy groups to allocate materials.
"Development Steering Group": Mainly responsible for the detailed development planning of each world and star region, including local economy, agriculture, military, ecology, etc., and has the largest number of people in the department.
"Legal Guidance Group": It goes without saying what it is, but compared with the Empire, our organization includes multiple cross-cutting tasks of the Inquisition, the Ministry of Justice, and the Assassin's Court.
The remaining issues, including ideological issues, medical issues, etc., will be handed over to certain Sons of Guilliman.
In the current environment, this is enough to cope with.
The fourth topic is to form a professional army to fight against demons. The main body is composed of six battle armors brought back by Yifeng, more than 80 high-level demon-resistant warriors, and a large number of Lang Tuan's descendants.
These armies will bring a devastating blow to the demons, especially when Rogier, the part-time leader of this army, pounces on the enemy with a patchwork anti-psionic shield.
With the addition of the Wolf Tuan scions, this mixed force is also capable of fighting against the renegade Astartes.
In the final vote on the name of this unit, the Silent Guard, the Stealth Knights, and the Reality Claws entered the finals.
Rogier succeeded in taking the name "Claws of Reality" by threatening to refuse to be a leader.
At the same time, Rogier also made some modifications to the anti-psychic armor. Attacking a castle covered in chaotic flesh and blood was too rare. Siege-type armor was of little significance. He suggested creating more heavy weapons and melee combat armor to fight against big demons. Armed.
Unlike the Reality Claws troops, the alien experts who returned from the Death Watch have been dispersed to various companies and serve as instructors.
After this reorganization, veterans of the Chapter took up important positions, and the number of combatants was greatly reduced. Yifeng also began to ask the Mechanicus to help make the Terminator gigantic to adapt to the size of the Primaris warriors.
The last thing is to mobilize local armed forces.
We must realize that the human world is a whole. We cannot rely solely on the Astartes' battles. Humanity is the cornerstone. We must fully mobilize the enthusiasm of local residents in each world, mobilize armed support, and establish our own navy and Astra Militarum forces. , or in other words, there is no need to distinguish each other anymore.
Let's go back eleven thousand years.
.......
When the leaders of the war group planned this plan in detail, Relf felt very uncomfortable and found Kazanev who did not go to the meeting (it was useless to go).
The son of the Iron Warriors felt the oppression of the Warp.
The Rebel Legion is not just those rebels, even the concept of Iron Warriors has been corrupted, but not Kazaniv. Before the rebellion, Horus's army had been renamed the Sons of Horus, Kazaniv's " "Lord of the Luna Wolves" deftly avoids the corruption of the concept of true names.
But the Iron Warriors have not changed, at least not in terms of the warp. Most of the corrupting power will not be dispersed to each heir, but will corrupt the source.
Ralph, as the son of the first Iron Warrior of this chapter, and the "source" of a future legion at the subspace level, will withstand massive "offensives" from the subspace.
Ralph has already felt the oppression at the soul level, but he is not a psyker. He doesn't know why the condition of his body is inconsistent with what the pharmacist said.
Kazaniv looked up at the Primaris warrior in front of him. After a long silence, he said, "Isn't your discomfort coming from your body?"
"Yes, the pharmacist said I was fine. And I feel worse and worse."
"Go to the sacred object room and look for Baina Robe."
Kazanev walked in front, the Mark VII power armor did not activate the backpack, and Ralph did not feel any slowness.
For Mad Wolf, as long as there is no physical problem, he can just find the holy object and be done with it.
The Baina robe lay quietly on the sacred object platform, floating in the subspace.
During Li Anjun's transformation, it didn't plan to go anywhere else, so it had to block his mouth to prevent it from being possessed by a demon in the middle of the transformation.
Then, it felt a dark cloud approaching.
???
The little robe felt very uncomfortable, as if some great evil was pressing over her.
It raised its head angrily. Is there anyone coming to this poor place? I want to see what's coming this way.
Looking up, Wuyang Wuyang's subspace power was heading here like a storm.
Come on, here is the new big rift?
A subspace attack no less powerful than the one in which the Primarch was dispersed throughout the galaxy struck, seemingly threatening to blow up the Eternal Mountains.
Bainapao is a word, hidden.
The rags instantly became transparent, and together with the area he wrapped, they all disappeared at the subspace level.
One of the characteristics of will carried by Baina Robe is rooted here and can be hidden here at any time.
This storm came and went quickly, as if it was just passing by and quickly disappeared without a trace.
Baina Pao was a little curious, what's the situation?
It slowly opened its body, as if no storm was coming back.
Kazanev felt a palpitation in his heart, but it disappeared soon.
Also strange was the big guy on the golden throne. what's going on? WiFi disconnected?
The Emperor turned his attention to where Kazanev was, and the surge of psychic energy was as vast as the water of a great river falling from the sky, dissipating over a large area of the surrounding warp. After circling for a while, it returned to the Star Torch.
This wave independently initiated by the subspace was annihilated invisibly.
The cold sun is a little sad, and its power is chaotic. He seemed to have guessed what the guy wanted to do. The price was so high that he didn't want to see it, and the success rate was so small that no one would bet on it.
........
A month later, the battle group set out for battle.
Matthew Leo is very happy. Although our base has suffered a devastating blow, our brotherhood has become stronger.
This is my ship, and I have to fulfill my duty as a landlord. Come to Brother Yifeng, and I will take you to visit my war group's "monastery."
The Mother of Tears wandered in the subspace, wandering around for a while, falling out of the subspace, and came to Sivana's newly marked psychic point.
Since the last meeting with Kazanev, this lady "won a great victory", she has been in a very good mood, and after seeing the Tantric warship, her vision has become extremely high.
The location she marked now is definitely not a simple area.
As soon as the Mother of Tears battle barge jumped out of the subspace, it found that the galaxy was in a mess. Many ships were floating outside, with no intention of returning to the local world's space port. Some local small warships were patrolling outside and surrounded the galaxy. No warships were allowed to leave.
The Fountain of Fortune was also among them. Siwana remained calm and cold. She felt a little regretful. She should have explored it again, but it was a pity that she was careless and placed the psychic beacon too early.
The reason why she called Yifeng over was because she found a corpse in this world, a huge corpse, a corpse bigger than a battleship.
The Void Whale, yes, is the whale that Yifeng encountered in his Bizarre Adventure and was "stranded" in the real world.
The corpse fell into the real space. Siwana immediately realized that it was an immeasurable wealth and called the Yifeng psychic hotline.
Neither she nor the local bumpkins, nor even the most knowledgeable local governor, realized that this was a repeat of the same old trick.
During the Plague War, Nurgle used the corpses of void whales filled with Nurgle's corruption to attack the defense lines of the Five Hundred Worlds. Now, his fanatical family has staged a parody of the attack.
Nurgle's plagues and daemons smashed into the local world hiding in the belly of the void whale's carcass.
The arrival of the Mother of Tears battle barge was not too late. The wise local governor did not back down like those drunkards and led the local planetary defense forces to defend the surrounding area to the death. Their defenses had not yet collapsed.
The commander of the First Fleet, Kansik, who was responsible for preventing the ships from leaving, almost burst into tears when he saw the Mother of Tears battle barge. He didn't care whether the Weeper was unlucky or not, as long as the Empire's Astartes arrived. .
The Wailer didn't waste any time and immediately directed the soldiers to land on the planet.
Kuroseil followed, and immediately felt something was wrong. The power of chaos below was quite thick, and the reality barrier was worn away very thin, making it useless.
Demons can easily come into this world and maintain a permanent presence.
The local world poured all its artillery into enemy positions, but was unable to break through the enemy's defenses.
The overall commander of the entire force was Governor Ales. Matthew Leo met with him and discussed matters that seemed inconsequential to Courosel.
Matthew Leo understood the local defense plan immediately. The basic front line and defense deployment were very complete. The governor was very talented in military matters. It can be said that they did the best.
Matthew Leo discussed all the non-combatant production mobilization, expected arrival times of hospitals, and other support, as well as how mortals should cooperate with the Lamenters.
Kuroseil couldn't bear it any longer.
interrupted their conversation.
"Are you sure that the mortals behind you are not infected with the plague?"
"We confirm, dear Emperor's Angels, that the Emperor's people are well protected by the heroic warriors of the Empire."
"That means the current situation is very bad."
Other Wolf Brothers, including recruits who had completed their training in the Eleventh Company, were sent to the local world, and the mortals trembled in fear when they saw the mighty Astartes coming to inspect.
Have the battle lines reached this point? The battlefield ahead collapsed?
These wolf brothers didn't say anything, and sniffed carefully around them to confirm that the surroundings had not been devoured by the disease.
There are splashes of ichor produced by the explosion when the void whale lands in several large areas, but this world is quite industrialized, and the first place where this ichor comes into contact is with the metal floor and workers who are about to be crushed by their work.
These nest workers were already suffering from diseases, and no one cared about their life or death, but they soon fell.
The person in charge of the local factory responded very quickly and quickly closed the factory. The entire factory became a purgatory, but it effectively blocked the spread of the virus.
These situations were summarized to Kuroseil. At this time, he was already on the front line of the battlefield. He saw with his own eyes that a demon was about to walk out of the thick poison, so he called his comrades and drowned it with sufficient firepower.
It took several magazines, but they were too strong to carry under the power of subspace.
Another zombie walked out of the poisonous fog. Some were wearing rotten armor, and some were completely naked and swollen. The laser guns of the local troops hit them, emitting black smoke.
Pain? What is it?
Praise the loving father! Praise the greatest, most merciful, and most loving Father!
Basilisk artillery support arrived quickly, blasting the enemy to pieces before closing in on their position.
The frontline commanders were already in despair. Facing the endless tide of corpses, they had been fighting for too long. But the arrival of Kurosel greatly boosted the morale of the mortals. They had heard that the red-armored warriors armed with sickles and hammers would make the world safe as long as they arrived.
"Why don't the basilisks conduct extended artillery fire? Don't you dare to attack forward? 0
"We have tried, sir. Really, we are not cowards, but the bombardment of artillery cannot dispel the green mist. If we rush in, it will become...become...you see, sir." , that’s the troops that rushed in before.”
A zombie wearing a black helmet staggered out, with pus flowing from the corners of his mouth, and was quickly knocked down by artillery.
The bravest of mortals had fallen, and the line of defense was composed of retired and reservists.
Kurosel immediately reported the information to Yifeng. There must be a Chaos Sacred Artifact or a specially constructed machine hidden inside the whale carcass. Otherwise, the walking corpses and believers of Nurgle alone would not be able to support such a powerful Ya Feng. The power of space flows through the world.
Yifeng was different from those timid battle groups. He immediately asked all mortal troops to complete the formation of the front within a few hours, because he wanted to bombard the void whale carcass with light spear energy attacks.
Chaos power can greatly reduce the power of long-range attacks. Similarly, long-range attacks can also greatly reduce the protective power of chaos power.
Claws of reality, ready to strike.
