"I'm sorry, the Mintis Sage will send you to the safety of the colony planet, don't think about going back to Anker Vanguard just yet, there is about to encounter a pirate carnival, and going back is a dead end......"

After arranging the colonel's widow and daughter, Chen Guo secretly got together with Mintis, who was hiding under the red robe.

"Don't worry, I'll send them to the safety of the star...... Remember, whoever goes to the Extreme Star Field, there are his enemies there, take Linda with you, and he will bless you......"

Chen Guo shook his head, "No need...... Pay more attention to yourself! ”

"Don't worry...... I'll get to you as soon as I can. ”

"I'll wait for you!"

After saying a brief goodbye to Jike, Chen Guo's fleet broke away from the huge expeditionary fleet, and he had left enough supplies for Jike to use until the mission was over.

As for the remuneration for the materials, Chen Guo asked him to transfer them to the Callivan family, on the grounds that these were the goods that the Callivan family needed.

Chen Guo believes that Shirley will not embezzle his money...... Of course, yes she's not hungry in the case.

Standing in the captain's room, Chen Guo's face was ugly.

His plan was completely disrupted, and according to his thoughts, the expeditionary fleet that had infiltrated the Iron Hand would gain friendship from the Iron Hand, so that Chen Guo could detect the rumors of the Horus rebellion in the first place.

After all, it takes time for information to travel through the universe, and in order to successfully kill Angelon, Chen Guo must master every crucial point in time.

This year is already the third year of the 31st millennium, and if everything goes according to the chronicles, at this moment next year, Horus will fall into the arms of chaos.

But this is nothing more than history written in the annals.

What the real situation would be, Chen Guo didn't know, no one knew, he never believed in any prophecy and the chronicle that was used as a template for the game.

If the future could be predicted in its entirety, then the Emperor would not have let the Horus Rebellion happen, nor would the Rainbow Ponies bankrupt the entire network project......

And it was precisely because he knew that the chronicles he knew were not 100% reliable, that Chen Guo chose to approach the expeditionary fleet commanded by Jike.

Pity...... Everything was disrupted.

Chen Guo looked at the starry sky in front of him, and his eyes seemed to merge with the starlight in the distance.

"What's wrong with you?" Soni slowly hugged Chen Guo from behind, she didn't know what was happening in the cabin when she was drunk before, but she could keenly feel that Chen Guo was troubled by something troublesome.

"Huh...... Nothing, just a few hiccupes. Chen Guo said that it was okay, but in his heart, he was constantly calculating the gains and losses of saving Linda and not saving Linda.

But thinking about it, his mind ran away to other places.

If everything really goes according to the chronicles, the Horus Rebellion is just around the corner, and this chaos will be in chaos for many years, and the entire galaxy will be in a mess.

When the time comes, who can take care of him Chen Guo?

Therefore, Chen Guo can completely ignore Linda, after all, his previous friendship with her is the same thing.

In other words, there is no friendship between them, just a successful deal.

Chen Guo likes to keep his promises, which will give him peace of mind, but he is not a virgin and will not put himself in danger for the sake of others.

However, ever since he had heard the old thing of the Mechanicus Sect chatter a lot, and had seen the real things that happened to Mintis, Chen Guo had always had the idea of wanting to do something for this universe.

This is not the first time he has had this kind of thought, but Chen Guo has been evading before, dodging, consciously or unintentionally using his identity as a traverser and a passerby to find reasons for himself.

But today, Chen Guo suddenly didn't want to find a reason.

I finally had a chance to make a name for myself, why was Nima still hiding.

The man has ambitions in all directions, Chen Guo still doesn't believe it, he can't make a name for himself in this broken universe!

Turning around slowly, Chen Guo looked at Soni, and hugged her with a firm look, "Ni, I've decided, I'm going to join this chessboard and be a chess player instead of a chess piece!" ”

Soni didn't know what was wrong with Chen Guo, she just nodded silently and said "um" to Chen Guo hard.

-------------------------------------

"Well, did you get it?"

"What to measure? I just came back from duty, and the broken pipe leaked again, and I repaired it for a long time, and it almost melted on the spot without getting tired. Zach angrily put down the toolbox in his hand.

"Then you go with me, it's not over yet, go and measure your mental strength, if you can meet the standard, then you won't have to repair the pipeline here in the future!"

"What mental power, what standard?"

"Don't ask so much, just go and find out."

A bewildered Zach was dragged directly to the upper deck by his companions, and by the time they got there, it was already densely packed with Nightmare Faces, all of which were talking to each other.

"I was chosen, I was chosen!"

"What did you choose?" Zack's face was full of confusion, he looked at the compatriots in front of him who were about to go crazy, and some of the second monks were confused.

"You don't know yet? The master has found a special way to become stronger, all those whose mental power reaches the standard can go to learn, and then join the first battle echelon and leave! ”

"Hey~ Don't have to be bitter? Our second and third children can also go to the first battle echelon? ”

Zach was a little stunned, as a newborn nightmare who had been expanded for the third time, (they all jokingly called themselves the third child, and the second expansion called themselves the second child, and the first child was of course those old nightmare faces who had been honest from the beginning.) ）

Originally, if he had followed the promotion method discussed by Chen Guo and Des, he would have to stay up for at least ten years and repair ten years of spaceships before he could enter the "first battle echelon" and have the opportunity to breed and command other faces.

Creatures all want to go up, only the flow of water will go down, who doesn't want to be a man if there is a chance, the face of the nightmare?

"Yes, as long as your spiritual power reaches the standard, you can enter the first echelon!"

As soon as he heard that there was an opportunity to improve, Zach immediately became interested.

He grabbed the clothes of the compatriots in front of him and asked him with a smile, "Spiritual power?" What's that! ”

"I don't know, but you see that crystal ball doesn't, use your ability to assimilate memories against it, it will glow, and the brighter it is, the higher the spiritual power."

"It's as simple as that?"

"Simple?"

"How many of the cruisers were selected if they were a few hundred thousand people, and it was simple?"

"Oh......"

Standing in the aisle of the bridge, Chen Guo stood Des on his left, and Soni and Solan stood on his right.

"After the election is chosen, Soni you are responsible for teaching them the wizarding language, and Solan you are responsible for teaching them the internal martial arts.

Tsk, who would have thought that the Nightmare Face, which doesn't even have internal organs, also has a dantian and a spiritual sea, but the proportion of their spiritual sea is too small, but it's just right, at the beginning, we just need to pick some talented Nightmare Faces to cultivate, and then let the other Nightmare Faces assimilate each other.

Nightmare Face, a race that can assimilate memories, is simply tailor-made for the wizarding profession.

But, you two remember, remember that you are not allowed to teach them the Nine Yin White Bone Claws and spells for the time being, understand? ”

"Understood!" Solan and Sonny replied in unison.

"Okay, you guys go and prepare, and I'll give lessons to the lucky ones of each fleet through projection."

Looking at their departing backs, Des walked to Chen Guo's side, "Boss, you are preparing to build a powerful army that can directly rival Astarte!" ”

"Yes, it's always impossible to have no one under your hands, Angelon has 190,000 heirs, and the Nightmare Face infiltration assassination is indeed a good hand, and there is no big problem in controlling the spaceship for combat.

But if it's a face-to-face fight with Astarte wearing power armor, then the nightmare face is not enough to see at all!

I need people, I can't count on you, I have Solan and Soni in a vain attempt to confront the Astarte army under Angron's command. ”

Chen Guo played with the gold beads in his hand, and looked at the nightmare faces below calmly with his eyes.

It feels good to have two eyes.

After robbing a pirate group along the way, Chen Guo finally scraped together enough of the last cash points and successfully exchanged for an Eye of Medusa to fill his eyeballs.

After a simple experiment, this petrification ability can last for an hour when used on ordinary humans, but it can only last for about twenty minutes when used on the nightmare faces, and it cannot be used frequently, otherwise it will be dry and tearful and vision will deteriorate, and it will take a long time to slow down before it can be completely relieved.

This ability should work wonders in actual combat, but unfortunately there is no better experimental target for me to experiment, otherwise I would have better count a little! ’

Chen Guo stopped thinking nonsense, because the nightmare faces below suddenly let out a violent commotion!

Looking at the faces that were densely packed together, Chen Guo curiously asked Des beside him, "Below, what's wrong?" ”

"I'll ask." Des took the communicator and contacted the Wei Mian who was responsible for maintaining order on the scene below, and said to Chen Guo: "They found a good seedling with a spiritual power of the fifth level, a third-generation Wei Mian, who used to work in the pipeline in the engine room, called Zack. ”

"Fifth-class talent, isn't that full, you remember to pay attention to it, if you find that he also has enough talent in wizard language, and then focus on training, the leader of our wizard group may be this third-generation nightmare."

"Understood!"

"By the way, how far are we from getting to the designated location?"

"Subspace storms have been frequent recently, and if there is no way to make a subspace jump, it may take nearly half a year to arrive." Des didn't even think about it, he casually reported it, and it could be seen that he knew everything about the spaceship.

"Oh, half a year, it's just enough for us to train our troops!" Chen Guo turned around and was about to leave here, but he was stopped by Des.

"Wait a minute, boss, I took a look, it's just a barren star area that has just been conquered, and there is only an outpost that the Mechanics has just set up, what is there in that place that is worth our troubles?"

Chen Guo was silent for a while, and said slowly: "Des, there are some things that I told you in advance, but they will become your psychological burden.

However, I thought about it, and if I didn't tell you about it, it would be irresponsible to you. ”

Chen Guo turned to look at Des, "I'm going to sneak up on a fleet of the Mechanics that may have battleships now, and rescue a Mechanicus prisoner. ”

"Boss, this ......"

After Des found out that he followed Chen Guo, he would always encounter things that shocked him so much that he couldn't speak.

They didn't even have a single battleship, so they relied on two or three tattered cruisers and dozens of frigates to challenge a fleet of the Mechanics with battleships?

Don't look at it, battleships and cruisers are just words apart, in fact, their size, firepower and configuration, battleships are in an absolute crushing state.

In other words, even the smallest battleship can accept the attack of 2~3 cruisers at the same time and easily win, just like you are in the boxing ring, you are a heavyweight professional boxer of more than 200 pounds, and the opposite side is only one or ten elementary school students who are not even up to your knees.

This is a complete gap in volume!

An unbridgeable gap!

"The owner...... Chen Guo, even if your personal ability is strong enough to tear apart the Space Marines, you will not be able to withstand the attack of any grand cannon, let alone face an entire fleet of fully armed troops with the strength of one person in a vacuum! The exchange of fire between the regular fleet and the regular fleet cannot be won by a small gang jump, and the tactic of capturing the thief and capturing the king first can only be used on the pirate fleet......"

Looking at Des's anxious expression, Chen Guo suddenly smiled, he really didn't see the wrong person, he could still say this kind of thing to him at the first time in this situation, it seems that Des really sees himself as a member of the fleet.

"Hey, hey, don't be so nervous, I'm not so nervous that I can't think of it to the point of committing suicide.

The Mechanicus fleet we're facing this time looks like a full fleet, but I can tell you unmistakably that it's an "empty" fleet!

With the exception of a few mechanical monks who were taken out as outcasts, all that remained were millions of mechanical minions, and the moment we attacked, these mechanical minions were immediately paralyzed...... Don't look at me with that expression, you wouldn't be so surprised if you knew who forced me to do this. ”

"Who told you to do it?"

"His pseudonym is Andrew...... I don't know the exact name, because as far as I can see, it's just a clone, but I can tell you his identity, he is a sage of the Mechanicus Cult, and his main direction should be a biological sage! ”

"Sage?"

Des knew it, although he had already had a conjecture in his heart just now, but when he heard it from Chen Guo's mouth with his own ears, it still made him gasp.

When did the Mechanicus infighting reach such a serious level?

Even a fully formed fleet can be sold at will!

"Of course!" Chen Guo held the back of his head with both hands, "It could also be a trap or a designed game, or that old guy wants to borrow my knife to kill someone, and then kill me by the way......

So, no matter what, we'll have to get to the ambush site early and be prepared to avoid being tricked up by that old pervert of the Mechanic Society.

Hehe, Des, if this time goes well, our fleet will have one more master with unique insights and creativity in biology, medicine, mechanical minions, etc., and your chances of revenge will be greatly increased, you know? ”

Hearing that Chen Guo was not blindly arrogant, but a plan that was made after careful consideration, Des nodded slightly, but he still had some unease and raised his worries.

Chen Guoyi grinned, "Okay, there's nothing to worry about, if it is found to be dangerous or something is really wrong, I won't stupidly order the fleet to go up and send it to death."

Also, I never intended to expose the entire fleet to the other side, so I was still going to sneak in on a small scale to rescue the people, and see if I could get their battleship back......

Not...... You have to take advantage of half a year to help me train a group of engineer fighters who can carry out gang jumping operations and have the ability to drive battleships, and the number of them is not large, and the number of them can be filled with a frigate. ”
