Chapter 175 Incorporation

Chapter 175 Incorporation

The Lady Luck is the old frigate parked at the space port.

Children of the Void are born in the cabin and die on the deck. They have lived in spaceships for generations. Generally, this group will appear in spaceships that are very old and the crew members have been combined and reproduced for several generations.

They can be boatswain, engine chief, gunner, engine maintainer, etc. In short, regardless of their discriminated status, as crew members, the Sons of the Void are very professional.

There are female soldiers in the Mortal Auxiliary Army, and there is no shortage of female crew members in the Expeditionary Fleet. The Empire does not restrict their private lifestyles. There are also Sons of the Void on the Stagger frigate. They are not many in number and they mainly serve in lower-level positions. , so Fu Qinghai knew the existence of this group of people.

Because of their identity discrimination and their inability to adapt to the living environment outside the spaceship, this group of people stick together very well in the cabin and form associations such as the Crew Brotherhood. However, it is difficult to see this group of people outside the spaceship.

By chance, a Son of the Void appeared in the lower nest. He was not only a member of the Spartan Gang, but also a former crew member of the Lady Luck. Without Fu Qinghai's reminder, Koshvito immediately pulled Buz aside and asked him in detail. His personal situation and the situation of the frigate.

After a while, Koshvito came over and said to Fu Qinghai:

"Let's go, Qingshan, let's return to the stronghold and talk as we go."

On the way back from the bottom nest to the lower nest, Fu Qinghai and Koshvito were talking quietly on the communication channel.

Kirshvitto:

"The Lady Luck is a very old Sword-class frigate. It has exceeded its service period, so it was sold to the Thorndike family by the expedition fleet, along with the crew members who lived on it. Once this group of people came, they couldn't help it. We are willing to disembark and change ships. Secondly, without the maintenance of these veteran crew members who are familiar with frigates, whether this frigate that has been repaired many times can still be driven is a question."

Fu Qinghai asked: "What's going on with Buz?"

Kirshvitto said:

"It's an old story. Buzz has a childhood sweetheart girlfriend who is also a son of the void. In terms of blood relationship, she may be his cousin. The two of them are planning to have a private life. But one time, the eldest son of the Thorndike family was drinking on a boat. Too much. This bastard who was tired of playing with mutants and aliens didn’t know what was wrong in his mind. After seeing Buz’s cousin, he insisted on having sex with her. He said he wanted to try the void. What it's like to be a son... I don't need to tell you what happened next. Buzz's cousin was insulted. Buzz was so ashamed and angry that he prepared to assassinate Kathy Thorndike, but was stopped by the crew brotherhood and kicked off the ship."

Fu Qinghai pondered for a moment and analyzed:

"I think this decision of the Crew Brotherhood is probably to protect Buzz. An association composed of a group of sailors is not qualified to fight with the Rogue Trader family that controls the entire fleet, not to mention the Thorndike family is still in the Hive Tower The top nobles have too many cards in their hands. Butz has a lot to do with this line."

Since the age of sailing wooden ships, sailors and captains have never had the upper hand in a fight.

Koshvito nodded in agreement and said:

"The crew brotherhood of the Lady Luck, after all, are all relatives and elders of Buz, so of course they have something to do. Then let's start making preparations. First, find a way to sneak into the space port, and then seize the frigate?"

Fu Qinghai shook his head:

"Don't worry, we have another thing to do. We're going to the Wasteland. I want to get the first regiment of Schwerin in my hands."

Koshvito was stunned, turned to look at Fu Qinghai, and said in surprise:

"Your information harvest is not small."

…

After returning to the stronghold, Fu Qinghai and Koshvito called Buz, the Son of the Void, into a small room for a detailed discussion.

When he learned that his boss and the Space Marines were going to seize the Lady Luck and make the Thorndike family disappear, the Son of the Void burst into tears on the spot. He took off his hood and looked like he was about to take his head, but was stopped by Kirshvitto. .

Buzz Dulles grew up on a frigate. At that time, the frigate was still part of the 27th Expeditionary Fleet, the 7th Legion of the Imperial Fists. Its name was not "Lady Luck", but "Galadon". No. 1, Butz knew the internal structural layout and pipeline passages of the frigate very well, and quickly drew a detailed map for the two of them in the small room.

After getting the map, Fu Qinghai asked Buz to go out and Gladys to come in.

Gladys Sommerfeld's two relatives, her cousin and cousin, were all placed under house arrest in the stronghold, and she was the only one who would follow Fu Qinghai.

In the dimly lit small room, Fu Qinghai took off his helmet, smiled as warmly as possible, and said:

"Hello, Miss Gladys."

"Ah, ah, hello, Lord Astartes."

Gladys was stunned and a little at a loss.

The story of the Space Marine Legion's conquest of the Schwerin Hive City came from word-of-mouth passed down by her fathers. Gladys had seen the holographic videos and pictures, but she had not seen the face of any Space Marine. She thought it was As described by his fathers, he had the image of a strong-looking man with a resolute face, but he didn't expect that this space warrior was so young...and so handsome.

Fu Qinghai kept in mind the experience Talal taught him, and took off his helmet to appease the emotions of these mortals and allow the woman to adapt to the transition from captive to collaborator, but he felt that something was not quite right about Gladys... Why are you blushing?

Without thinking much, Fu Qinghai raised his finger and pointed at the Spartan warriors, and first introduced to Gladys:

"Koshvito, the leader of the Spartan gang, is one of ours."

The young noble woman nodded politely to the Spartan warrior.

Normally, without Fu Qinghai's endorsement, the top nobles would treat these gangs like a dog, even if their lives are in the hands of others. This is a deep-rooted mindset.

Just like the invincibility of the Space Marine Legion, it is so ingrained in their inherent concepts.

Fu Qinghai took a deep look at Gladys and emphasized again:

"I mean, the Spartans are our people, you know what I mean, Miss Gladys?"

"Ah uh, I, I understand."

Gladys woke up from her trance and responded quickly.

What on earth do you understand... Fu Qinghai couldn't help but give her a few words:

"In the future plans, the Sommerfeld family must cooperate with all the actions of the Spartan Gang. Do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand, sir."

Facing Fu Qinghai's questioning gaze, Gladys nodded heavily. After speaking, she did not dare to look at Fu Qinghai, and lowered her head with a red face.

Wasn't he quite smart before? Why does he look so stupid today... Fu Qinghai frowned, thought about it, and finally dropped the biggest bait:

"If the plan goes well, the Schwerin Nest will not have to suffer too much damage and losses. I also guarantee you that the Sommerfeld family will still be the planetary governor and sole master of this planet."

Gladys's eyes lit up.

Then, Fu Qinghai added softly:

"Besides, Gladys, think about it for yourself. You are smarter than those so-called direct heirs. Don't you want to be in charge of a spire family?"

Gladys raised her head, with the flame of ambition burning in her eyes, nodded firmly, and said:

"I understand everything, my lord."

…

Living in a hive city in Warhammer 40K is like living in a dungeon in Dungeons and Dragons. The structure of the hive city is three-dimensional and stacked, rather than flat. The honeycomb-like living spaces are piled together in a disorderly manner, with pipes, ladders, shafts, crypts... countless transportation networks interspersed throughout.

Fu Qinghai once emphasized to Kirshvito the importance of the Sommerfeld family, not only because they were once a member of the Loyalists, but also because the Sommerfeld family controlled the water union and gas union. , which is the lifeblood of the residents of the main hive city.

Traders from the Water Guild carry bottles and cans on their backs and go between the passages. They are also responsible for maintaining the huge water tank in the main nest. This water tank stores billions of tons of water, which can be used for drinking or industrial cooling. Using water, union members wearing heavy diving gear would enter the tanks, where they would test water quality, repair leaks and remove invasive organisms.

The traders of the Gas Guild are constantly detecting new oxygen veins, and at the same time controlling the flow of all breathable air in the hive. They control every turbine, ventilation shaft, air purifier, and smoke exhaust outlet, so that the outside of the hive can be The dirty air will not enter the hive city and cause suffocation in a certain area.

Except for mutants whose body organs have undergone adaptive mutations, no normal person can survive in the hive world for a long time without relying on the Water Guild and the Air Guild.

"Be careful how far you go, Kirshvitto."

Before leaving, Fu Qinghai warned the Spartans:

"If something goes wrong between these two major unions, it will affect the main hive with a population of more than one billion. With the crowded population density of the hive, it is foreseeable that a million people will die."

Koshvito nodded and said:

"I know, Qingshan, you overestimate me. The three melons and two dates of light weapons and gang members I have now cannot shake the unbreakable foundation of the operation of Schwerin Nest City for thousands of years."

Fu Qinghai knew this, and he was worried that Koshvito might still be hiding some big killer weapons such as individual nuclear bombs, and when he was causing trouble, he might accidentally destroy a key structure in the hive city - a water tank or a The ventilation shaft collapsed, affecting people living in that area.

…

Fu Qinghai and Gladys followed the guide provided by the Spartan Gang and explored the secret passage leading to the outskirts of the hive city.

The trek in the bottom nest is undoubtedly difficult.

Fu Qinghai left some weapons and equipment with only research value but no actual combat value, such as the E-11 blaster rifle, identity verification card, Mrs. Viper's poison cocktail, and other bits and pieces of loot, all in Ke Shweto's stronghold, armed with a knife, a sword and a gun, set off.

Gladys was wearing a complete patchwork version of the Hunter suit. Fu Qinghai slightly repaired and adjusted the captured protective equipment and put it all on her, for fear that the noble woman would die while crossing the bottom nest.

The breathing valve is a must. Everyone who goes to the bottom nest or leaves the hive must wear this thing. The poisonous gas in some areas is even so strong that it cannot be completely filtered. The breathing valve needs to be closed and the oxygen tank must be sucked.

In addition to the breathing valve, Gladys wore protective goggles on her head, a tight-fitting black protective suit on her body, gloves with built-in small bolt guns on her hands, and an optical camouflage cloak on her back.

She has pieced together the equipment of Aurus (strength type), Jakkara (agility type), and the female patriarch (lurking type), three sets of hunting lord suits.

Gear up and hit the road.

Together with the guide, the three of them passed through a swamp full of toxic sewage and rancid mud. The jelly-like active fungus ejected its tentacles several times, trying to pull the three people on the edge of the swamp into it. Fu Qinghai was the one who pulled the entangled ones several times. Gladys was dragged out by force.

The three of them passed through a dense forest full of thorns and thorns. Their barb-shaped mutant thorns could even cut through the protective clothing of the Hunter Lord suit. They relied on Fu Qinghai's Green Fang Chainsword + Pulse Arc Cannon to clear the area. open circuit.

The journey is long and full of monsters.

After many twists and turns, dangers abound.

There is a saying, objective evaluation, these bottom nest creatures are far more difficult to deal with than the planetary garrison on the surface of the planet, which is highly recognized by the interstellar warrior Fu Qinghai.

Finally, the three of them crawled through a winding dark pipe. The guide stretched out his hand to turn the valve above his head. After a rusty rustling sound, the manhole cover was lifted, and a dull light fell from the top of his head. The three of them finally arrived. surface.

"Huhuhu——"

Fu Qinghai just put his head out of the well mouth, when a gust of wind carried rough sand and gravel, and instantly hit his helmet, making a clanking sound.

Fu Qinghai looked up and saw that the gloomy sky was obscured by thick dark clouds, which were thick clouds formed by the accumulation of industrial waste gas. A few rays of light shone through the clouds, and the visibility in the air was extremely low. Sand and dust tornadoes were in the air. It was spinning endlessly, leaving only the sound of howling wind between heaven and earth.

Fu Qinghai retracted his head and shouted to Gladys below him:

"Put your goggles on."

Then he shouted to the guide on the other side:

"Thank you for your help. You can return now. I will walk the rest of the way by myself."

The wind at the wellhead was so noisy that Fu Qinghai had to raise his voice.

The guide nodded, put on his hood, and retreated into the dark passage again.

This is also a mutant with severe deformities all over his body.

Fu Qinghai saw that Gladys had put on her goggles and tightened her protective clothing. He reached out and grabbed her arm and lifted the woman up. The two of them jumped out of the well.

Gladys was staggered by the strong wind. The sand and dust tornado surrounded Fu Qinghai, as if she was cut into pieces by a thousand knives, but failed to leave a scratch on the green shell. Fu Qinghai pulled her over to protect her. In his arms, the flight pack behind him activated, plasma flames spurted out, and the huge turbofan sucked in the sand and gravel, making a clicking sound, but still bursting out with unparalleled huge lift, pushing Fu Qinghai into the sky. .

Fu Qinghai's flight backpack was fully thrust, soaring upwards, and rushed out of the scope of the sandstorm.

The huge sandstorm surrounding the edge of the main hive city was still raging beneath his feet. High in the air, Fu Qinghai slightly weakened his thrust and turned to look behind him.

The buildings of the Schwerin Hive are in the distance, like a dark forest with its top reaching into the sky. Dirty rivers gush out from the sewage outlets, and foul-smelling smoke columns rise from the large chimneys. There is an inexplicable sense of depression and solemnity.

Fu Qinghai turned his head, unfolded the short metal wings of his flight pack, and suddenly spurted out tail flames as he lowered his body and flew into the distance.

…

Here Fu Qinghai went through all kinds of hardships to get out of the main nest, and over there Koshvito was not idle either.

He gave up continuing to hunt the noble children in the bottom nest. The bottom nest was too big and too dangerous to find. The gang members did not have the ability to fight against the luxuriously equipped noble hunters and could only serve as reconnaissance eyes and ears. , the reason why he was able to fight back against hunting was all due to the strong combat power of Koshvito. If he was not careful, he himself would fall into a dangerous situation.

Koshvito gathered the members of the Spartan gang, counted the trophies obtained in the anti-hunting activities, re-armed the gang members, rushed out of the stronghold, started a firefight in the nest, and violently cannibalized other members. The gang's territory and gradually penetrated into the upper nest.

…

Fu Qinghai held Gladys in his arms, with his gauntlet covering the top of her head to block the incoming wind. His gaze passed over the rust-red land of the wasteland and extended into the distance.

The sky was gloomy. Fu Qinghai saw huge drilling and excavation machinery moving slowly on the waste wasteland like lazy steel cows. There were also some giant vehicles following behind, carrying out primary processing operations such as crushing and fine screening on the spot. .

His gaze extended further and saw the endless stretch of imperial fortresses there. The imperial fortress walls were composed of long trench-type defense platforms and smaller fortifications. They were cold and towering plastic steel bunkers with strong macro cannons at the top. The base of the fort is a stone bunker half buried in the earth. The armor with crenellations on both sides connects to form a solid shield wall.

It seems quite like that.

Fu Qinghai did not fly over the station, but landed directly two kilometers away from the station. Any closer would be within the range of the quadruple automatic cannon. Fu Qinghai took Gladys on foot to Schwerin No. 1 Walk to the regiment station.

As a result, I walked to a place one kilometer away from the station and still did not receive any warning or prompt.

Until Fu Qinghai led Gladys to a place 500 meters away from the station, he could clearly see the barbed wire fence and trench without eyepiece visual compensation, the double-headed Sky Eagle logo on the iron-gray plastic steel bunker, and the high-altitude The muzzle of the macro cannon shooting into the sky.

"Snapped!"

A slowly burning flare was raised in the bunker, and the flickering red firelight illuminated the two figures.

Gladys pulled off her goggles and breathing valve, exposed her face, put her hands in the shape of a trumpet to her mouth, and shouted in the direction of the bunker:

"I am Gladys Sommerfeld, tell Lieutenant Colonel Cyril that his niece is here!"

It was quiet in the trenches and bunkers opposite.

Five minutes later, the steel door covered with iron cones slowly opened inwards, with no one behind it.

Gladys raised her head and looked at Fu Qinghai.

Fu Qinghai nodded, patted Gladys on the shoulder and said:

"Go ahead."

Gladys put on her goggles and breathing valve again, adjusted her equipment, and walked towards the open steel door.

Fu Qinghai stood still and did not move, but from the corner of his field of vision, he had already captured several laser guns aimed at him from the dark perforations of the bunker, from behind the crenellations at the top of the bunker, and from between the coiled barbed wire fences. Own.

It seems that Baron Zedu's rumors are not without power.

At least the mortal auxiliaries have dared to target the Space Marines.

Fu Qinghai still stood calmly, like a silent sculpture, without any movement.

They were just a few laser guns. As long as they weren't targeted by the macro cannon, Fu Qinghai didn't need to worry.

Time passes minute by minute.

Twenty minutes passed.

Half an hour passed.

Fifty minutes passed.

Fu Qinghai raised his right hand and placed it on the end of the hilt of the Qingzhifan chain sword at his waist, tapping the silver-gray skull ball lightly with his fingers.

Soon, it was one hour before the appointment between Gladys and Fu Qinghai.

Fu Qinghai's patience is gradually being exhausted.

If he doesn't come out, he will draw his sword.

Finally, from the station, Gladys walked out side by side with a middle-aged man with a brown beard, wearing a straight uniform, a serious face, and a big cloak on his shoulders.

Gladys pulled off her breathing valve and waved her arms excitedly at Fu Qinghai, with the tip of her nose straight and red, and an excited smile on her face.

Fu Qinghai stood there without moving. The middle-aged man walked up to Fu Qinghai, knelt down on one knee, crossed his hands in the Eagle Salute, lowered his head and said respectfully:

"Commander of the Schwerin Corps, Cyril Sommerfeld, salutes you, my lord."

Fu Qinghai looked down at this middle-aged mortal officer and said calmly:

"Lieutenant Colonel Cyril, I already know everything you have done..."

The middle-aged officer's shoulders tensed.

Fu Qinghai continued to say calmly:

"But I am willing to give you a chance to renew your loyalty to the Emperor."

Lieutenant Colonel Cyril breathed a sigh of relief:

"As you wish, my lord."

Fu Qinghai didn't talk nonsense, but said directly:

"Take all your soldiers and vehicles, follow me, and head towards Satellite City No. 1."

"Yes, sir!"

Thanks to the Wings of the Sun God, the little fox wandering in the city, DK Qin Ge, \\\\(=.=)/slippers, and the rewards from several book friends.

Several book friends said that the macro cannon is accelerated by an electromagnetic coil... How can the macro cannon be accelerated by an electromagnetic coil? The original sentence in the military book directly says "the largest automatic weapon in the human empire". What is an automatic weapon? Hachao Gang Firearms that use gunpowder to fire live ammunition are automatic weapons, but they are made to the size of a space battleship.

Moreover, the macro cannon has a short and stubby appearance, with neither magnetic rails nor coils. It is obviously imitating the short heavy cannon of the bottle cannon in the sailing battleship era. It was the best and most mature artillery in the sailing battleship era. The aesthetic style of the entire Warhammer 40K and The creative process is to first move things from the colonial era and the Victorian era into space, and then forcefully explain that these seemingly retro things are actually high-tech disguises! The British people are obviously nostalgic for the Empire on which the sun never sets, and you can guess it right away.

As for the Skitarii's galvanic weapon, I've seen this a long time ago. It's just like the Necron's Gaussian weapon that pulls and peels instead of a beam. Since it's pull and peel, why does the official picture show the Space Marines being penetrated? ? All in all, the descriptions are specious and vague, and the emotional and epic descriptions go beyond the study of principles. If you insist on saying that galvanic weapons are electromagnetic acceleration, it is okay, but it is a bit far-fetched.
