The heavy agricultural machine rumbled and spewed smoke, and the huge equipment of force feedback sensing simulated the movements of its operator's arm, a full twenty-thirty meters, but the brown shovel and Krieger's sapper shovel were not comparable, like Hercules descending to the earth, stirring up the vast open space of the entire inner courtyard.

The soil was sprinkled everywhere, the shovel shook the hard rocks and turned them into minerals to moisten the crops, and the scorched soil on the Skadi surface was shattered by a huge external force, turning it into nutrient-rich black soil suitable for wheat and corn to take root.

The roar of heavy equipment spends all day in the castle, reclaiming the land so vast that a single mortal cannot reclaim it in a lifetime.

Such actions have been going on in this land for a week, and after the arrival of fertilizers, seeds, water, soil and heavy equipment from the agricultural world, the work of debilitating people has not stopped.

No one knows if this land will produce plants, Skadi has not lived for too long, especially on the cold and difficult to live on the surface, those large white greenhouse equipment installed half a month ago is protecting crops from Skadi's cold wind through the geothermal energy of the castle, just as Alan Baier protects this precarious world.

While Alan Baier was debating the matter, many rulers who had been Skadi nobles approached the new magnate and commented angrily that the reclamation work on Skadi was wasted at the moment.

The huge amount of money for heavy equipment should get the factory back to work, the water and soil and even the low-corrosive fertilizer and the temperature-controlled equipment that will be repaired later should be stopped, and the priority should be given to the people to give more security to their livelihood, and they still miss the time when they had an actual territory, they are not happy that the lord threw the supplies on an uncertain matter, in any case, farming is not what this fortress world should do.

They can fill the warehouse with money and requests for supplies from the Empire, as long as the Maelstrom is still in the maelstrom, Skadi has the value of being thrown at the Empire, and they should not waste their supplies on reclamation and casting arsenals, which will only make the Empire wonder if they have the intention of rebelling.

The funny thing is that they are right, although those aristocratic families may be the existence of corpse vegetarian meals, but the people who survive now are certainly not, they have experienced hardships and invasions, they have changed a lot, but nobles are nobles after all, and their main desire now is to restore Skadi's industrial capacity, and start to help other worlds with OEM and other income-generating behaviors again.

Essentially, they were just helping Skadi in their favorite ways, and if it was the Empire, the nobles' proposals were "exemplary".

Alan Baier didn't have a problem with this, but many of the circumstances he had experienced would always tell him that although the empire was strong, one day the empire would take care of itself, and Skadi would have to survive on his own.

And at the moment, the former Supreme Commander of the Imperial Guard, who was the governor of the planets, is now in a bad mood.

Alan Bair put down the thick brown paper in his hand, it was the order of the Empire to stop the war, the stupidity of the Empire finally arrived, and for the short-sighted nobles, the king of Skadi had no patience anymore.

"Get out."

The nobles looked surprised, either disbelieving or wondering what they had heard, and one of them asked the superman, who was quite mild-mannered and a little too popular. "What?"

"I'm telling you to get out." Elanbair's tone was strange, tough but not emotionally fluctuating, and the nobles could only leave, and after a slight creak and footsteps of the wooden door being opened, the Lord of Skadi sighed as he looked at the truce request.

No matter how clear it was that this would happen, in the face of its real arrival, Alan Bair's emotions fell to the bottom.

Bad things kept coming, and no matter how majestic he was, the advice of the flies would continue, and although the troops must have been in their hands, and it would only be a few projectiles to clean up those guys, they no longer had the energy to do so for the ruined Skadi.

Soon, the garrison legions from the various sectors will leave, and Skady will have to face the situation that the control of the universe is completely dependent on himself or the local military department, and Alan Baier has chosen the Empire, so he must ensure that Skadi homeland never falls.

A new internal arsenal was built, agricultural production was carried out in the estate, and the basic supply was guaranteed and the enemy monopolized the transportation and supply lines.

Alan Baier still remembers the hellish situation when he took the castle, where people were biting and mutilating each other, and when material things could not be satisfied, then human nature was nothing.

And when the war ended, the king of warriors, who had been living by this action for a long time, also felt confused, and when he came back to his senses, it was as if he was cursed, and he was still preparing for war.

Alan Baier doesn't know how to live in this dark universe, at least in the next hundred years, chaos will come as promised, and when the dark side of the empire comes, Skadi, who is close to the maelstrom, will definitely face another catastrophe.

"I'm not wrong, when those days come, the Skadis will be even more grateful to me, and even most of the worlds in this sector that rely on Skadi to hinder the Chaos invasion will be." He thought to himself that many things such as responsibility, victory, goals, and a short period of time that would not be effective confused the warriors who were strategically fast.

He is very powerful, this is the reality that cannot be denied objectively, but the real strength of the warrior lies in putting down the sword, this is also the most powerful thing about the space marines, those supermen can be transferred to education and other industries anytime and anywhere, and become a beacon to lead mankind, one day, the war in the entire universe will be extinguished, so what makes mankind out of difficulties is the warrior who is not equipped with a sword, not a certain general...

But now in the situation of the Empire, probably only a true warrior can lead people out of difficulties, but unfortunately, as a mortal, there is still a whole thousand years, Alan Bair cannot witness the return of the original body, and he has no interest in going on a pilgrimage to Terra, but this huge dark universe does not give him time to breathe.

When the Lord of Skadiburg banged on the table, he looked bored, his thick winter coat was covered with filth, and he looked like a planetary governor, clearly a vagabond.

He sighed and looked at the small radio in his office, which was buzzing. "This is the second lieutenant of the 4th Infantry Regiment of Skady, hear the answer."

Alan Bair replied. "Boy, stop arguing, hear." He asked again. "Did you find it? The remains of that Space Marine's underground. ”

The second lieutenant replied. "No, since I witnessed him fall from a high place and the fortress and leave the ground, the warrior seems to have suddenly disappeared, and his body has been vaporized by the castle engine?" He had just returned from underground to complete a mission arranged by the Sun Lord, but unfortunately, he had not found evidence of the enemy's death.

"Apparently he's not dead, a chaotic and filthy imperial warrior, I really hope he won't go crazy and do stupid things." Alan Baier sighed, those supermen didn't need food, he couldn't find this warrior first by stealing food, and those giants were good at all kinds of tactics, and it was even more impossible to find him in the wilderness.

The second lieutenant was silent, and then Alan Baier's mood that had just improved also dropped, how happy is a lurking Chaos Space Marine?

The second lieutenant also felt uncomfortable and said. "I'll lead the troops to search for him and try to find that guy during this time."

"No, no, finding him can't bring real benefits, no matter how powerful the Star Marine is, it's just one person, obviously he can't turn the sky upside down, now our energy should be focused on planning internal production and military industry, heavy machines can make very few people meet the food needs of the entire fortress, but only production requires a large number of people." Alan Bair was extremely sensible enough to stop the second lieutenant's impulse, and off the radio, the young man gave up on the matter.

"Then I'll come back, boss, haven't the first greenhouses sprouted yet? I don't think you're so happy, can't Skadi grow plants yet? The lieutenant asked, whether a world could grow plants or not was a sign of its pollution and soil nutrient habitability, and Skady had apparently met the mark, and after a terrible death and sacrifice, it had met...

And at this moment, the second lieutenant couldn't help but ask. "Is Skady dead?" What he feared most as a person living here was nothing more than that, if Skady still couldn't grow plants, it meant that this former nest city world still needed to import water, air, food, and there could be no animal husbandry, let alone the possibility of being invaded by the enemy's monopoly for a long time.

"She didn't!" Alan Baier shouted. "She's not going to die, things will be fine when the new batch of fertilizers developed by the genetic sages arrives, those things contain most of the nutrients, and even if they are put in water, they can make plants sprout..."

"Boss, is that still the child born by Skady? We admit that the Skadian is the only creature in the world except for moss and rats, and that she can't give birth to new life, even if you sprinkle seeds all over her soil. ”

The lieutenant's words were more sad than those of the nobles combined, Alan Baier subconsciously clenched his fists, and the weak radio also jumped out of fireworks due to superhuman strength, and then it quickly emitted abnormal smoke, with sizzling and electromagnetic sounds, and then stopped running.

Alan Baier looked at the mess on the table, he had to admit that there was no such thing as perfection in this world, and that it was the hardest thing for him to get Skady back into the arms of the Empire, let alone make her burst back into the Empire.

Alan Bair sighed, and walked out of the room, ready to issue the order to the others that Skadi would give up farming, but today, the castle was particularly noisy, and when he opened the door, a golden shadow ran around and crashed into him.

As a veteran, he only felt stuffy in his chest and rubbed his thick winter clothes, but the child who hit him needed more attention.

For the first time in her life, Miss Inquisitor felt what it was like to hit a wall, and although she was a woman, she had fought and trained all year round, and her strength was even greater than that of most ordinary people...

"Oh my God, what did I bump into?" Lova rubbed her red nose as Alan Bair asked. "What's wrong, so restless?"

Lova saw the castle lord and said subconsciously. "Lord Sun! Inside the greenhouse sprouted! ”

Instead of correcting her words, Alan Bair spoke urgently. "Sprouting? Sprout! He smiled, this was arguably the best news he had known in this time,

"Then you don't have to do that, the plants won't run!" He laughed and quipped, but Lover gasped and replied. "There's an Astarte, an Astarte I don't know, I'm in the greenhouse, and no one is allowed to go near the shoot, and we want to inform you, but the radio doesn't work!"

Alan Bair immediately thought of the madman. "Hagrid?" Then he walked swiftly towards the courtyard, and the inquisitor immediately followed...

In that courtyard, outside the first batch of greenhouses, white polymer materials and temperature control equipment snorted to help those germinated seeds survive the cold, while at the same time, a large number of soldiers surrounded the greenhouse, not that they could not take the soldiers inside, but that they were worried that the young shoots would be destroyed, and those seeds might be the first or only batch of varieties adapted to the Skadi environment...

If it is destroyed, they will not be able to find that variety of wheat again to cultivate, then Skadi's hopes will be extinguished.

And when the soldiers were at a loss, Alan Bair approached, and the Skadi veterans immediately got out of the way and saluted the respected hero, and when Alan Baier saw Captain Foraxia coming in several Rymanus, he couldn't help but curse. "Crazy, a Space Marine, how did you get this thing!"

Sergeant Katachan replied immediately. "I'm sorry, but we're worried about damaging the plants inside, so we can only block the sides of the greenhouse with Riemanus, and the soldiers will surround the front and prevent the enemy from escaping."

"That damn heretic threatens crops and immobilizes us..."

Alan Bair became more and more urgent at this moment, and he walked into the shed after hearing this, and the moment he entered it, the Katakans were stopped by Ailan Baier. "Don't follow!"

The military order was hard to disobey, and those warriors watched their hero lord walk into it, and when Alan Baier stepped inside, he first felt the warmth of the soft earth, the warmth of the focused sun, about 16 degrees Celsius, and the long-lost, grassy and earthy smell.

And in the soil, Astarte, dressed in tattered armor, the old man, the two-meter-tall old man with gray hair, slowly watered the crops with a watering can, perhaps it was his care that allowed the plants to germinate.

He saw Alan Bair coming, not angry, not mad, but just continued to water the crops until the soil was moist, and the little greens sprouted in the brown hell, and the green leaves hung with dewdrops, and in Skadi, in this universe, it was the most beautiful view...

Alan Baier took out his spear, Hagrid was vigilant, his Terminator armor had been completely damaged, and the huge armor was only less than 30 percent of the normal situation, almost a piece of torn clothing, and it would definitely not be able to resist any shot from the castle master, and Alan Baier's movements made the old man's vigilant nerves tense!

But the Lord of Skadi simply laid down his weapon, lay the thing on the ground, raised his hand to show his kindness, and asked.

"Is this what you did?"

Hagrid nodded.

"I used to live in the farming world and take care of them every day, and in my eyes it was the most comfortable and stupid day of my life, but now, I miss it so much."

Alan Bair said again. "You've been found out because of them, I'll kill you, you know?"

Hagrid just sprinkled manure and replied. "The death of my brother and the war have left me without a few years, and for Space Marine, there is no difference, I am already dead."

Alan Baier said. "Then join my castle and take care of the plants in the last years of your life, and I want to grow white grapes for the world to make wine in my lifetime!"

Hagrid looked at the young man incredulously. "I am a heretic and believe in the gods of chaos!"

The King of Skadi replied. "You're just an old man, you just like crops!"

Alan Baier is so crazy and unsophisticated, maybe one day he will suffer and have problems because of his stupidity, but he is still willing to give all his fellow human beings in this universe a chance, compared to the silver light of the emperor, he only has flesh and blood, but it is warmer.

Hagrid put down the kettle and hesitated for a long time, touching the soft ground with the knee that had not been kneeling for the enemy in countless wars, and the old knight fell to one knee.

"I'm willing to redeem myself, but I understand that I can't count the killings of my compatriots, and I don't want to believe in the Corpse Emperor, and I won't join the group, nor will I settle inside the castle."

Alan Bair replied. "I'll make you a house in a greenhouse, and you can't step out of the farming area, you can't carry weapons, you can't wear armor, and you need to wear restraints at all times, reduce the power you can send, and at the same time, you can become a special farmer."

Hagrid, the veteran nodded. "I will, my lord, I am mortal again." He said self-deprecatingly.
