Chapter 1260 Some people are red and some people are crazy

The one who took the initiative to find Kane this time was Kailatus, the leader of the Blood Raven Warband.

This 2.1-meter-tall burly man has a pair of gray iris eyes, which are naturally cold, and at the corner of his left eyebrow bone, there are two gold, two silver and four nails.

One gold for 100 years, one silver for 30 years, so this is a veteran who has been a Space Marine for at least 260 years.

As for his height, for a Space Marine, it can only be said that it is mediocre.

After most of the Star Marines are transformed, they are at this height, and after wearing power armor, they reach a height of 2.4-2.6 meters, and of course there are many taller ones, but there are always reasons for this, and they are not universal.

When it comes to Space Marine, the biggest problem is actually a series of modifications.

This series of transformations is, in general, the addition of special organs. For example, two hearts and three lungs, super kidneys, preset stomach and so on.

And the biggest problem here is the gene seed.

Genetic seeds are like trees bearing fruit, one in the neck and one deep in the chest. The neck matures first, 5 years, the chest cavity matures later, 10 years, and then it is taken and preserved for more Space Marine modifications, which is the only known way to continue the personnel of the Space Marine Corps.

And if a space soldier is contaminated by corruption, there is something wrong with the genetic seed. However, corruption and pollution are not all overt.

As a result, almost every interstellar soldier regiment is more or less plagued by genetic mutations. After all, they always fight in harsh environments, and being eroded by energy is also the norm.

And this erosion is not just negative transcendent energy, the so-called positive transcendent energy, even cosmic rays, etc., are also influential.

Where there is influence, there is the possibility of mutation.

And these transplanted organs are often related to each other, influencing each other, just by listening to the name to know the origin of some organs, although the organs are good, but is it suitable? Is it really once and for all to forcibly solve the rejection reaction with chemicals?

These are all problems, so to speak, this superficial, transformation of an original person, into an assembly of hybrid gameplay, Kane can only say a suit. In particular, the birth of these organs is a mutant variety catalyzed by subspace forces.

Like the Ears of Riemann, which is the mutated organ of Rieman Ruth, the original body of the Space Wolf Warriors. Similarly, there are Belisa furnaces and so on.

It is normal to have mental problems if you have physical problems, and if you are engaged in a profession that is prone to mental illness such as war, and you are doing it for a hundred years, it is really normal for you to have mental problems.

Of course, Kane also understands the emperor, in the dark universe of Warhammer 40K, it is really not crazy and you can't survive, you have so many technologies in your hands, if you don't use it, the population will perish, and if you use it, you will commit suicide slowly, so choose it.

And for him, the Star Marines of Warhammer 40K are also quite a good source of personality big data collection, and there are always positive characters who have been tested and shined, these are not heroic units, which are in line with his iron-blooded swarm not heroes, but all of them are set by professional elites.

Therefore, he is still very willing to interact with the Space Marines.

Kailatus came here this time, the purpose was a little funny, it was to use him as a Kaizi, and wanted to use the name of a star soldier to bluff him and gain some advanced knowledge. For example, the 3D printing ship construction and repair system.

In terms of the manufacture of space marines, the blood raven can be said to be very high compared to other brother organizations. The gene pool is abundant, and the gene seed variability is also very low. There is also a wealth of technical literature.

But in terms of ships, weapons, etc., it is obviously much worse. Although their ships are very tall compared to other brother organizations, the mothership All-knowing Mysteries is a well-known ship of the Empire, and there are also three motherships: Angry Prayer, Observer, and Knowledge. There are also four assault cruisers, but after all, they have all been in the years, and they have long been thinking about improving them.

Because of their hobby of archaeology, they are closer to the Cult of the Mechanicus. A large number of members of the Mechanicus Cult came to Antioch Fortress to study, and they knew about it, and then they learned more about Kane's gossip, and with the idea of having dates and not hitting a shot, they ran over and tried it.

Unlike the Mechanics, the Blood Ravens have no interest in mastering basic scientific principles and formulas.

Of course, if Kane is willing to give, they want to, the knowledge keepers are not in vain, and this is all money, which can be sold.

What they are most interested in is actually the STC standard mechanical manufacturing template.

Of course, they haven't felt good about themselves yet, and Kane will give them the STC.

And if you really give it to them, they can't catch it, it's a hot potato, Kane can make eye contact with the high-level bosses of Terra and appease them, that's Kane's ability, they can't do it, this, the blood crows are still self-aware.

What they want is a spacedock system.

Like most people who don't know much about Kane, they think that Kane started with STC, which is mainly used to build shipyards.

Therefore, Kane was able to put the star ring of Fortress Antioch and list so many spaceyards in a very short time.

Give one set, or buy it. As a veteran gravedigger, Blood Raven is also rich and promiscuous.

"No problem, but I'm short of money, not of things, and of people. Originally, it was nothing to give away for nothing. But the problem is that as soon as this mouth is opened, it will either be divided into pieces and eaten to satisfy people's appetite, or it will offend the big guys, so a suitable threshold must still be there. ”

Kane smiled and said, "I've heard about the reputation of the Blood Raven Knowledge Keeper for a long time, so use it as a bargaining chip." However, I am also a little picky here, and what I have naturally cannot be used as a bargaining chip. ”

"No problem!" said Keratus, looking bold.

Long before coming, the blood crow had repeatedly discussed internally, and it was psychologically prepared for the exchange of knowledge.

In the words of the director of a think tank: "Such an efficient and advanced shipbuilding and repair dock is only in the hands of Kane in the entire empire." There are no Mechanicus cults that control so many casting worlds, and their value is self-evident. So as long as you are willing to trade, everything else is easy to say. ”

Kane saw that Kelatus was happy to agree, so he reminded again: "There is one more point, so that you can understand." One of the key reasons for the speed of building and repairing ships in my space dock here is the power of the computing system, which not only has a special large-scale supercomputer, but also can connect the supercomputers in each spaceyard in parallel to concentrate computing. ”

"Moreover, the reason why a repair is a repair is because it is computationally much smaller, and the manufacturing model determines that the real-time calculation combined with the current reality is very important. This means that the spaceyard alone doesn't have the insane pace of construction that you might learn. ”

Kailatus frowned: "So, can you sell the large supercomputer you said?"

"This is not possible. Its use is too multifaceted, too dependent, and once the Iron Man Rebellion repeats itself, the losses will be too heavy. Chaos has the ability to corrode both electrons and machines, and we have not had a good defense against this so far. That's why I made a pact with the Mechanicus that the big supercomputers wouldn't spread. ”

"Understood, I'll go back and discuss with my brothers and give you an answer another day, okay?"

"Of course, Brother Astarte is the guardian of the Empire and deserves extra courtesy. The Blood Ravens can come at any time without asking me if I have a schedule here. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, and on behalf of all the Blood Raven Clan, I salute you!"

Galatus saluted and left.

Turning his face, Kane received a piece of bad news when he was dealing with the backlog of intelligence information.

In the Athena sector, which is connected to the Gothic Star Sector in the Hazy Star Field, a large group of commercial transports led by the Emperor-class battleship King's Sword was attacked.

The latest follow-up information indicates that all members of the ship, including the escort fleet, were killed by the disease.

There were brief firefights at the scene, as well as traces of gang jumping.

It's important to point out here that in a space station, hopping doesn't necessarily mean taking sides. Most of the jumpers are landing craft with a blasting tone like a sand rush, and after being embedded in the hull of the target ship, they blow out of the passage and then kill the ship.

The broadside often means that the gang has achieved quite good results, such as slowing down the enemy ship and causing the fire compartment on the side of the fixed man to fall, which will pass the test and carry out a larger-scale gang jump. Otherwise, it would be too hurtful to get a close-range artillery bombardment with the sail era.

The Imperial Navy of the Hazy Star Domain naturally had a certain amount of speculation about the enemy who had committed this evil act. After all, the production efficiency of the ships of all the forces is very low in this area, and there are actually only a few ships floating around the 'street'.

Experts in the Imperial Navy speculate that it was the Chaos forces' cruiser Plagueclaw that was doing evil. The Plagueclaw is a murder-class cruiser.

The murder-class cruiser, as Kane knew, was once one of the main cruisers of the Empire, and between the 33rd and 37th millennia, the Empire produced about 500 cruisers of this type, and tragically, a considerable number of the ships of this type defected to the side of Chaos.

The peculiarity of this ship was that it was armed with a large number of the best ion cannons that the Mechanicus could produce at the time, making it a rather formidable opponent at long range. And it has a lot of power, so it can keep a good distance from its opponents.

In other words, the murder class can kite enemy ships that are not as powerful and accurate as him in long-range weapons, or simply short-handed.

Because of his knowledge of murder, Kane didn't think a plague claw could do anything like that.

He believes that this is the work of the Chaos forces, who entered the Gothic Star Sector from there after conquering the Axes system, and then turned into the Hazy Star Domain.

Perhaps the believers of Nurgle were not willing to be lonely and intervened.

For example, when the Vanguard fleet arrives, contact the Plagueclaw, the Ground Serpent Plagueclaw, who is fighting in this area, and then put on a show to attract attention and sneak attack.

The Sword of Kings had no idea that the Plague Claw was in the dark, and because it relied on the oxen of the escort fleet, it could deter the enemy ships that attracted attention.

As a result, Plaguepaw secretly jumped into the gang, and when he attacked the ship, it was basically over. As the details in the report described, many crew members simply died on their jobs, which shows how quickly the plague spreads and how vicious it is.

To be fair, that is, a transcendent virus, killing mortals, there is this compulsion, otherwise no matter how bad the central air-conditioning system of the space ship is, it will not be so exaggerated.

Anyway, it's bad news. His prophetic messages about the world of Warhammer 40K are also based on a chronology of important events.

First of all, more than 100,000 people in the fleet died tragically, but it was brought by the sentence 'a series of vicious attacks that began in 139'.

Moreover, the professionalism of the chaotic forces in this period is indeed good.

Like this attack, there was no cargo moved and no ships were damaged.

It feels like a plague claw using trickery to get things done. After the incident, there was not enough manpower and firepower to destroy a large number of ships in a short period of time.

And leave behind ships full of terrible plagues, deliberately scaring people, disgusting people, such a powerful poison, one will pit one of your fleets, I ask you if you are afraid?

In this way, the secret of the existence of the vanguard fleet was preserved.

After all, in most people's cognition, the chaotic forces are all kinds of smashing and looting, and if they can't be taken away, they will definitely be destroyed, and they will not leave the opponent with a chance to save at all. Only when there is a real inadequacy, or if there is another plan, will there be a specialty.

Soon after, Louvansberger sent a video message request to talk to him about it.

Luvansberg also suspected that this was the work of the Chaos Vanguard Fleet, and asked him if there was a good way to get the Vanguard Fleet out.

Obviously, now that the Gothic fleet is strong, Louvansberg is eager to try, unwilling to sit idly by and watch the people of the empire be poisoned again and again.

If he continued to hang up, Kane certainly had a way to pull out the Chaos Vanguard fleet.

However, he would prefer to see the Chaos Expeditionary Fleet come out of the nest once again, as it did in the original historical line.

And the more beautiful victory in the Gothic War can ensure the stability of the millennium.

For a while, the First Order could do a lot, and by the thirteenth expedition, at least Abaddon and most of the Chaos Space Marines who had ascended to demons would not be reborn in the realm of their own children in subspace.

He didn't brag about it, but he still told Luvansberg very frankly that he could endure this and give the Black Expedition a ruthless blow, which would keep him safe for a thousand years.

Luvansberg, though he felt that he was not in a beautiful mood, agreed with this statement.

Soon after, the Misty Star Domain Navy Division asked him if there was a way to cure the poison of the plague.

He was deliberately intervening, and the Navy Division took the initiative to support the steps, which was just right.

Then he replied: "You don't have to make deep contact, I will personally bring the most advanced equipment." In addition, it is best to quarantine those who have been in contact with the scene for the time being, and wait for me to go through the procedures to prevent the plague from lurking and spreading. ”

"Okay, okay, then please. The other party obviously didn't expect Kane to take it so seriously. I couldn't help but be polite......

In fact, from a technical point of view, even if it was the poison that Nurgle personally concocted, Kane was not frightened at all.

From Kane's point of view, the Warhammer 40K Universe's supernatural power technology system can be called primitive and rudimentary.

It is nothing more than two big factions.

One might be called primitive sorcery, and like most of the more primitive uses of supernatural powers, this faction focuses on sensibility, empathy, taste, and passion.

The other faction is psionic energy, which is characterized by moderation, choice, control, and extraction.

The Navigator, the Star Whisperer, the Think Tank, and even the Bards of the Eldarin, as well as the Way of Foresight, the Way of Navigation, etc., all adhere to these core choices, not to be greedy, but to focus on one direction, to try cautiously, and to reduce dependence as much as possible, to filter layers to make it less violent, and so on.

These technical means have indeed played a certain effect, but they are still too superficial.

And the four evil gods, although they have a long lifespan and have also developed research and development, the type acquisition mode of their power origin has affected their pursuit of skills.

The laws of the Warhammer 40K universe have opened a super hanging for them, so that they are not like the belief gods of the ordinary transcendent universe, and they need to manage the believers of the main material world to generate specific faith power and absorb it. The four evil gods directly absorb the negative emotional and spiritual energy of the seven emotions and six desires, which seems to have a wide range of paths and small restrictions, but they are also affected by it.

In a way, their ego is unsound, and they are swayed by the thoughts of sentient beings, and they cannot completely say it themselves.

The spiritual energy of the power of faith is easy to obtain, so there is no hard demand for carving skills.

Nurgle studies the plague, just as Tzeentch studies trickery, Slaanesh studies indulgence, and sadomasochism studies all sorts of slaughter, out of love, out of the instinct that the divine nature has given them, not out of necessity.

Most of those who choose chaos have one thing in common, that is, they don't want to follow the right path.

What is the right path?

The right way in the world is the vicissitudes of life.

Self-discipline, struggle, overcoming bad roots, and so on, this is the right path. To put it bluntly, the right way is to arrange oneself in various ways, to make oneself rational and orderly, in order to gain control by mastering the law.

Chaos, on the other hand, is the opposite, indulging in desires and desires, regardless of the consequences. By gambling, by ruthlessness.

And the four evil gods are not successful because of their ability, but they are big enough, just like the second generation to start a company, and they have entered the mode of making money with money from the beginning.

Since you can beat sentient beings and suffer for Mao? Isn't it fragrant to spend a chic life and occasionally engage in hobbies?

So the four evil gods oppressed people with force and smashed people with money, instead of convincing people with skills.

These speculations are also corroborated, after all, he had dealt with the four evil gods in the Middle Ages Warhammer.

He knew that if he won in the future, he would inevitably do so in terms of the efficiency brought by the technique, including 'making money', and one day, his extraordinary power would surpass the four evil gods in terms of conversion efficiency, even if they had a rich accumulation, they would eventually be overtaken by him.

At that time, the money is not as good as him, the throughput efficiency is not as good as him, and the skills are not as good as him, and it will not be far from defeat.

The only thing to watch out for is the old god. No one knows what elements that the old god Tian secretly added that did not belong to Warhammer 40K, and what kind of changes would be brought.

Therefore, it can be despised strategically, and it must be taken seriously tactically. Every step is steady, not in a hurry, even if it is occasionally pitted, it does not damage the fundamentals.

The plague ship incident in front of you can be regarded as a tactical category. The purpose of going on a trip in person is to avoid the incident of the plague slaughtering the city or something.

At present, the population control of the Gothic Star District has just improved, and a great plague at this time is likely to extinguish the little hope that the people have just born.
