…………

The world of the nest of Schwerin.

A tower above the clouds in the spire area.

Fu Qinghai stood with his hands on the edge of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Quietly gaze at the waves in front of you, the sea of clouds.

"Finally free to see me?"

A gray-haired woman walked behind her.

Fu Qinghai glanced back at Gladys.

The gray-haired woman is still delicate and beautiful.

As the governor of the planet, she has 10,000 ways to keep herself young and beautiful forever, and her age is not very old, when she first met Fu Qinghai, she was not even an adult, but the scheming skills she honed in the aristocratic family already appeared quite mature and sophisticated.

"How's it been lately?"

Fu Qinghai turned around and asked lightly.

"That's it, what else?"

Gladys stepped forward and said.

She stood in front of the man, her face less than a fist away from his breastplate, a distance far less than the normal social distance between the two stakeholders.

Gladys looked up at the Space Marine in front of him, his eyes like a puppy under his carefully groomed eyelashes and eyeshadow, expecting the approval and reward of his master.

Aoyama Khan's dog - this is the nickname that the major families in the spire area have given to Gladys in private.

At this moment, it is aptly named.

Fu Qinghai raised a hand to hold her face.

Gladys turned his head and rubbed his face against the hard, cold black armor, not embarrassed at all.

From Fu Qinghai's point of view, Gladys is very sober and intelligent. This woman knew very well who her power came from, from whom her position came from, who had propelled her to the throne of the Governor of the planets, and who had turned her hands into clouds and rain on her, and ...... Who she should be loyal to.

Gladys has never tried to maintain a balance between the Somofeld family and the Iron Float Warband, and she has always carried out all orders given by Aoyama Khan to the letter, whether or not it is in the interests of the family or the interests of all the nobles in the Hive World.

If that's all there is to it, it's fine.

Perhaps it shows that Gladys, a woman who is greedy for power and extremely selfish, even does not hesitate to turn her back on her family and even her class for the sake of the position of planetary governor.

But some of the ambiguous wording in the correspondence.

Let this "loyalty" seem a little deteriorating.

In the early days, Lin Yu served as an attendant to the head of the war group, and he had to review the letters sent to Qingshan Khan from various planets in advance. At that time, he discovered the clue - in the letters written by the planetary governor Gladys to the Khan, in addition to the normal report, there would be private goods between the lines, mixed with some inexplicable words expressing admiration or longing for a response.

The more direct proof is that Gladys, as the de facto controller and supreme power of a planet, is of course extremely extravagant in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, she has dozens of the most expensive shuttles, she lives in the most luxurious mansions, she has space marines as bodyguards, and she tastes delicacies from all over the empire every day...... But when it comes to the physiological needs of both sexes, Gladys has so far not touched any man.

No marriage, no lovers.

It seems that there is no need for such convenience at all.

As a planetary governor, as long as her body can withstand it, it is no problem to raise more than a thousand faces, and the chaos in the private lives of some female planetary governors in the Human Empire is a hundred times more exaggerated than her. The major families at the spire had not thought of using more gentle methods such as the beautiful man trick before, but when they found that Gladys did not enter the oil and salt, they originally thought that this governor's orientation was a bit special, and it turned out that it was not easy to change to a woman.

Fu Qinghai looked down at Gladys.

The mood is a little tangled and complicated.

He felt that Gladys's emotions were a little deformed. Fifty-Six has investigated her background, her parents were politically married, her father died in a power struggle, and Gladys, who lost his father at a young age, was raised by his uncle and mother. In this kind of growing environment, it seems normal to lack a sense of security and belonging.

Is she a bit of a paternal complex?

In their previous lives, many girls indicated that they liked "daddy boyfriends" or "uncle boyfriends", but this was not a "father-lover complex", or simply lacked the ability to live independently and habitually wanted to find a man to live by. Gladys was brilliant in his scheming and skillful, and he was neither lacking in ability nor wealth.

So what exactly is she craving?

"Look at this."

Fu Qinghai avoided Gladys' eager and expectant gaze and handed over a data tablet.

Puzzled, Gladys took the datapad and plugged it into the office's Ponder system. A green hologram flickered on the table, and a slightly familiar planet model slowly swirled in front of her eyes, and Gladys recognized it as the world of the Schwerin Nest, the planet beneath her feet.

Because it is clearly written in the projection:

Project for the transformation of the civilized world of Schwerin.

"Civilized world?"

Gladys looked up in confusion.

Fu Qinghai nodded without explaining.

Gladys continued to watch.

"We can ...... for the main nest city"

"We decided to ...... for the wasteland outside the city"

The holographic projection video also has a narration introduction.

The mechanical female voice speaks and interprets at a glance.

This is the basic transformation plan of the nest capital world issued by the technical priest of the Phaeton casting world, which is mainly based on the previously proven geographical situation of the planet, and the plan covers the demolition of the nest city, pollution control, environmental transformation, population reallocation and so on. As for the specific data details, they have not yet been perfected.

Gladys looked a little stunned.

Fu Qinghai's intentions exceeded her expectations.

It would be a seismic change for this ancient planet, and Aoyama Khan was so bold and determined that he wasn't even satisfied with just exterminating the spire aristocracy - he wanted to wipe out the entire Hive World!

"Fifteen minutes later."

Fu Qinghai said calmly:

"The exploration team composed of the Phaeton technical priests will arrive in the nest capital, and I will personally lead the team to find out all the details of this thousand-year-old nest city, and then we will start to work on transforming this planet, understand?"

Fu Qinghai didn't mean to discuss at all.

He was just informing Gladys.

"I see......"

It took the female governor half a minute to digest the information.

Then she nodded solemnly:

"I'll go with you."

"You're going with me?"

Fu Qinghai looked at her in surprise.

"Yes."

Gladys began to undress after speaking, and in front of Fu Qinghai, she untied the fur and threw it aside, revealing her fair shoulders and collarbones, as well as the upper body tightly bound by the intricate black lace and scarlet fishbone corset.

Gothic-style costumes are very complicated, but Gladys moves very quickly, tearing off the black silk mesh long-sleeved gloves, removing the layers of velvet fishtail skirts, and standing in front of the man in only underwear.

shows her sturdy and athletic body.

Then the Planetary Governor summoned her personal maid:

"Go get my Hunter suit."

"You still have the Hunter suit?"

Fu Qinghai asked in surprise when he heard this.

A few maids quickly came in with a bunch of equipment, and Fu Qinghai's eyes swept over the dazzling array of things: a lightweight power exoskeleton device, a black cape-like optical camouflage cloak, a dual-wielding chainsaw scythe, and a straight-edged power long knife......

"The Schwerin Nest has abolished the Hunt Sport, which I ordered separately from Neklomonda."

Gladys looked at Fu Qinghai and said proudly:

"The Female Patriarch Hunting Suit, one of the most expensive Hunting Hunting suits, I have never given up personal force."

The sport of Lord Hunting originated in the world of Neklomunda's nest, and gradually spread to other nest worlds as merchants and trade. Necromunda's Hive nobles not only tell other Hive World nobles how to train their family children through Hunting, but they are also exporting Hunting suits.

The cost of a Hunter suit is far more than that of a Space Marine's power armor, and a variety of custom functions are more abundant than power armor. However, Fu Qinghai didn't think that the nobles of Chaodu could defeat the Space Marines by wearing the Hunter suit, because there was also a biochemical transformation soldier with two hearts and three lungs, rich combat experience, and skilled combat skills in the power armor.

With the help of the maid, Gladys quickly put on the huntsman suit, and changed from a delicate and graceful female governor to a murderous "female patriarch", her eyes flashed with excitement, she looked at Fu Qinghai and said firmly:

"Let's go, let's go."

"No, you're serious?"

Fu Qinghai asked with a dumb smile.

"I can protect myself this time."

Gladys said with an affirmative look on his face.

Fu Qinghai opened his mouth and didn't say anything.

Little girl, play memory kill for me, right?

Originally, Fu Qinghai and Koshvito used the Hunt Movement as an opportunity to plot to control the entire wobbly nest and force them to turn to loyalty. In order to prevent the pass through the checkpoints between the various areas of the nest city from alarming the nest police, Fu Qinghai found a nest man as a guide, and led Gladys through the nest directly to the wasteland outside the city, and controlled the first regiment of Shiweilin.

It was that experience that laid the foundation for the future relationship between the two, and made him decide to support Gladys, a girl who was not yet an adult, to ascend to the throne and become the new planetary governor of the nest world.

"Master, the Mechanicus exploration team has arrived."

Fu Qinghai's ears sounded with the voice of Qing Ming.

"Okay, let's go."

Fu Qinghai turned around and walked towards the elevator of the mansion.

Nor did he try to prevent Gladys from participating.

Nanoparticles climbed up his face to form a helmet.

……

The door to the lower nest slowly opened.

The Chaodu bailiff watched everyone walk towards the maze.

Fu Qinghai took the lead, Gladys followed him, and the two were followed by a group of red-robed technical priests, holding all kinds of strange exploration equipment.

Fu Qinghai's choice of this time to transform the world of Shiweilin Nest Capital was definitely not a whim.

Although the world of the nest capital is basically under the control of the warband, the tower peak aristocratic group is not completely slaughtered and unable to resist, because the nest world can communicate with the outside world, and there are normal trade merchant ships coming and going at the airport, although the mortal agents of the wargroup are also secretly monitoring, but as long as there are their star whisperers, they can also send messages to the outside world.

If the nobles of the Nest Capital managed to contact the relevant institutions of the Empire, such as the Inquisition, the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of the Interior, and even the Council of the High Lords, it would have some impact on the Iron Floating Slaughter Warband—it was impossible to shake the rule of Aoyama Khan over this star, but it could indeed cause some trouble.

A lot of people don't understand what the Terra government is thinking.

But Fu Qinghai is well aware of their brain circuits.

The Planetary Governor violently and bloodily suppressed a popular uprising? OK. The nobles of the nest capital plotted to overthrow the planetary governor? OK. The people of the planet are in dire straits, and the people are struggling to make a living? OK. Different peoples on the planet slaughter each other and commit genocide? OK.

The Terra authorities won't care about any of these things.

There are only two situations that they will never allow:

1. The planet did not pay its tithes on time and in full.

2. Space Marines meddle in the internal politics of the planet.

Needless to say, in the first case, if you don't pay tithes, all the Imperial armies will come and teach you how to behave. The second scenario is more complicated, as Astarte phobia is a bit rampant after the Horus Rebellion, and the Terra authorities are very sensitive to Space Marines meddling in local administration. There is also a department within the Inquisition that oversees the investigation of the Space Marines, and they have always wanted to get their hands on the Space Marines.

There are only two exceptions, the first is that the Space Marine's own conscription world is under the jurisdiction of the Space Marines themselves, and the second is the exclusive Dominion of the Regent of the Five Hundred Worlds of Otrama, which is also directly ruled by the Ultramarines warband.

The subspace storm has created a good opportunity, all communication in the sector has been cut off, and it is impossible for the nobles of the nest capital to contact the outside world, whether it is near the Kalisis star sector next door or the Holy Terra far away.

can only let Aoyama Khan pinch and rub it round.

He can transform as much as he wants.

The exploration team had penetrated deep into the core of the lower nest, zigzagging through gaps in the massive transmission bearings, lifting the hanging chain curtains and climbing over the broken steel walls.

This time they didn't need a guide, because the purpose of the exploration team was not to get through the nest as quickly as possible, but to find out what was in the entire nest area.

Standing on the broken suspension bridge, Fu Qinghai once again saw the crushing gears running in the distance, as well as the huge flywheel like a Ferris wheel, the crankshaft made a "creaking" difficult friction sound, and the golden-red magma flowed and dripped between the gaps in the piston rings, forming a lava waterfall.

These massive machines from ancient times are still working tirelessly, perhaps maintaining some of the Hive's infrastructure, such as fresh air or geothermal power, or some ancient technology. Even the spire aristocracy and the major guilds did not fully understand the city.

For them, the nest is a black box that can maintain operation but do not know the principle, this giant three-dimensional city accumulated over thousands of years, like a pile of super mountain code that has been written and iterated by countless programmers, can barely run, but no one dares to modify it easily.

But today, Fu Qinghai just wants to thoroughly understand what each character in this pile of mountain code represents, and analyze this pile of mountain code in order to disassemble this ancient city.

"Buzz Buzz ......"

The technocrat unleashed the servo skulls, and the small anti-gravity drones floated in all directions like swarms, scanning light from their eye sockets, scanning the surrounding mechanical components one by one, not missing a single detail.

Fu Qinghai's gaze swept over this three-dimensional maze, and he could analyze the use of many mechanical components at a glance. At the same time, he also paid attention to the bottomless dark abyss around him. Although all the lower nest gangs have been served by the Space Marines, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be fish that will slip through the net.

This is actually one of the contradictions between the Iron Floating Slaughter Battle Group and the Nest Capital Nobles - all the Lower Nest gangs are actually thugs raised by the Spire Nobles, and they are illegal gangs on the surface, but secretly they are inextricably linked with the major families.

"Will we meet the enemy?"

Gladys activated the cape's optical camouflage, leaving only a vague silhouette of his figure. The woman held the chainsaw scythe in both hands, looking to the left and right, as if she wanted someone to try her hand, and was looking forward to a fierce battle.

"Probably not."

Fu Qinghai looked around calmly.

The Techno-Priest is concentrating on exploration and mapping, surrounded by a dense army of cathars, red-robed soldiers armed with electric and arc weapons, using specialized modified prosthetics to climb through the complex urban structure of the lower nest, like a swarm of scalp-tinging mechanical red fire ants.

"Aoyama-sama!"

A technical priest suddenly shouted.

"How?"

Fu Qinghai instantly turned his head and looked over.

"This nest city, this nest city ......"

The technocracy was breathing heavily, his brow furrowed, the green mechanical prosthetic eye embedded in his socket was spinning wildly, and the flabby flesh under the rusty red hood was gradually flushing.

"Qiang ...... What happened? ”

Fu Qinghai drew his sword and walked over.

The technocratic priest was so excited that he couldn't help himself, he took out a tranquilizer and inserted it into his neck, then pressed the button, used the drug to force himself to calm down, and finally calmed down his pounding heartbeat, raised his head, and carefully organized his words and said:

"We thought we had found part of an STC, but it turned out it wasn't ......"

“STC？”

When Fu Qinghai heard that keyword, he was shocked, and then realized that it was not so simple:

"Not STC? What is that? ”

"What we found wasn't a fragment of the STC, the nest itself was a giant STC! This is a city built on STC, Aoyama-sama! ”

The technical priest said with a twinkle in his eyes.

"What is the STC?"

Fu Qinghai retracted his mind and asked in a deep voice.

"The chassis of a super-heavy tank."

The technical priest closed his eyes and showed a pilgrimage to his expression, as if it was an honor to pronounce the name, and spit out the noun in a slow tone:

"The famous ...... Emperor Poison Blade! ”
