Warhammer: I live under the watchful eyes of the gods

Chapter 201 The Eve of the Judgment Conference
With a special drink in one hand and a small snack bucket in the other, even Karl had to admire the luxury and luxury of these nobles' daily life.

At this moment, 15 days have passed since his real vacation.

So what if he goes to the next nest and the bottom nest is in dire straits?
Anyway, Karl didn't notice at all that the quality of life of these core nobles had declined by half.

The place where he is at the moment is one of the three magnificent buildings beside the core load-bearing columns that he saw before.

Different from the ordinary high-rise Gothic buildings around, the upper floors of these three buildings are really able to go straight to the spire.

Only here can they see the so-called real "sunshine".

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunshine enters the room through the glass of the super deluxe room, it always makes Karl feel an inexplicable sadness.

Since when have sunlight and air been included in the pricing services?
In fact, the hotel he was staying in right now, directly under Ferdinand's family, had taught him a good lesson about the power of money.

No matter how difficult the outside situation is, as long as you have money, you can enjoy all the services here.

Of course, being rich at the moment refers to having Skyhawk coins.

The franc has long since fallen to the level of toilet paper.

Although there are still some workers who have been kept in the dark and are still taking the wildly depreciated francs as their basic wages, it is obvious that the francs have been completely abandoned in the entire aristocratic circle.

This is not a special case in the B-13 hive.

The moment the source of materials is cut off, the collapse of all economies is already inevitable.

No economic master can conjure food out of thin air like Karl who has opened the emperor card.

And this means that all efforts can only alleviate the process of economic collapse in the end.

A hive world without food input is doomed to collapse and destruction.

However, there is also the weakness of the aristocratic oligarchy economy here.

When a crisis occurs, the nobles naturally first think of trying their best to protect their vested interests.

Just like this, they wiped out the Skyhawk coins on the market, and anchored these Skyhawk coins with the last reserves.

Therefore, in this absurd situation, there was an avalanche of the relative value of the franc, but the sick economy of the sky eagle currency was uncharacteristically rising.

Of course, it is clear to all that this is an unsustainable state of affairs.

Supplies will be exhausted after all, and on the day when the Eagle Coins cannot be exchanged for supplies stably, all the civilians who are still kept in the dark will find out that those nobles have already run away.

Yes, Karl has also been following the latest news about the B-23 Hive City for the past few days.

It's just that in addition to the information released by the aristocratic circle, he was also lucky to get a new message.

It was a letter from Franco.

The letter roughly stated that their next step was to go to Hive Capital A-13 to track down the so-called Four Saints of the One Heart Society that they had found before.

Crown, tyrant, snake, scorpion, and poisonous insect are obviously not irritating existences purely from their names.

But just like Carl's idea before - leave professional things to professionals.

He believed that Kaya and Franco could at least help him find some important clues during his infrastructure construction.

At that time, it will be much easier for him to follow the clues.

In addition to briefly mentioning the next step of the two, Franco also shared the information about the so-called "black businessman" that Kaya caught before.

This person claimed to have no name, and the reason why he wanted to pretend to be a "black businessman" of gene stealers was purely for revenge.

He needs more strength to avenge the inexplicable massacre of the Frank No. [-] royal family.

That's why he took the risk and used the name of "black businessman" to do business with Tongxinhui.

And continue to look down, is the most critical information.

What exactly happened in the B-23 hive.

=Oh my god, this place is a hell=
= When we really went deep here, we realized that this place has become a huge altar =
= In addition to those large ruins, there are stumps and broken arms everywhere =
=It was not the collapse that caused these tragedies, on the contrary, the collapse seemed more like someone trying to cover up what happened here=
= But Kaya also raised her mouth, it seems that she has seen this method before on the creature like the demon host =
The letter came to an abrupt end here.

However, the short content in it has already summarized the short-term goals of Kaya and Franco's party in the next short period of time.

But the most inconspicuous sentence among them caught Carl's attention.

"The same method as the previous demon host who called himself Duke?"

A flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind.

The ghostly name "Duke" seems to have appeared to him many times before.

=Greedy desires have blinded your eyes, Split Eternal—Duke, that’s not the plan you should get your hands on=
That was the conversation Karl overheard with the help of the Emperor's divine power during the decisive battle in the Perfect City.

Fragmented Eternal, he only now noticed that this term was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Even purely, the word "eternal" explains everything that happened here very well.

And Karl has an inexplicable premonition that he will meet the guy who calls himself Duke again in the future.

And at that time, he must ensure that his ability is far stronger than now to ensure victory.

Otherwise, Hive City B-23, which was completely destroyed and sacrificed, is the most vivid example.

==Carl Attribute Table==

=========
Looking at the revived wind that had already been upgraded, Karl knew it was time to end this farce.

And he also knows that, in addition to completely taking over the entire B-13 hive this time, he also needs to justify his ability in front of Abbadan.

This is the crux of the whole incident.

Otherwise, it would be a little scary to be an undercover ghost all the time.

Although he doesn't intend to disclose his abilities to all his companions, Abadan, as the core figure in the future reconstruction of Sons of Horus, certainly cannot keep concealing it.

Save a little trouble now, if Tzeentch seizes the opportunity to sow dissension and overturn the car in the future, the price will be too high.

As for other subordinates, this ignorance is a kind of protection.

After thinking about the general goal for the next step, Karl turned his head to look at Abbadan who was dazed aside,
Obviously, he is extremely uncomfortable with this "leisurely" life.

Even during the entire vacation, Abbadan asked Karl many times about his next plan.

"Abba, haven't you been asking me what other plans I have for the past few days? Let's take you to see the emperor's plan now."

Yes, Karl emphasized again that this was the Emperor's plan.

This is to inoculate Abadan first, otherwise it would be ridiculous for the two to start filming on the spot.

The Wind of Recovery does have an incidental brainwashing effect, but this effect is only effective for most ordinary people.

Even some devout Khorne believers are immune to this kind of brainwashing. Obviously, a self-propelled superman like Abbadan cannot be generalized.

Wind of Recovery is still just a "healing" skill in essence.

Like the other side of the loving father, this derived control effect can only be regarded as an accidental giveaway.

It's just that Carl has been buying things for the "gift".

But what makes Karl feel fortunate is that at least this time the Emperor really granted him a 15-day long vacation.

At this moment, he was going out full of blood, refreshed.

The burly and tall figure behind him gave him a sense of security far beyond what the rosary on his body could bring.

The black warmaster Abba's bodyguard, dare I ask, who else has this kind of treatment except the warmaster?
At this moment, Abbadan is not wearing power armor.

So after returning to work, the first thing Karl did was to upgrade the Abbadan.

Money is not a problem, materials are not a problem, technology is not a problem.

And the trial meeting that will be held tonight will not pose a problem of time.

Walking in the hotel corridor covered with thick plush carpets, he could even smell the right fragrance on the carpets.

"Damn it, what a waste."

In his view, with these resources, it is absolutely possible to engage in iterative upgrading of the industry.

There is no future for being a "foundry" of mechanical teaching.

As a result, the Mechanicum and the nobles took almost all of the profits, and in the end, under the "reasonable charity" of the nobles, they barely left a mouthful of food for all the civilians in the bottom nest and the bottom nest that would not starve to death.

Even Karl has found such a stable balance without any technological innovation.

It can be said that no matter how to maintain the nest at a state of minimum input and maximum output, this group of nobles has been studying the subject.

It is true that the following defenses can be made.

If it is not squeezed to the extreme in this way, then the weapons produced will not be enough to fight all kinds of 40k monsters and ghosts.

It is true that this statement is not unreasonable, but these invisible burdens on the common people and the hope that can hardly be seen forever are in line with the needs of the four peddlers.

It is this continuous secret pain that virtually provides the four vendors with endless energy.

Born of emotions, governed by emotions.

As a product of emotional fluctuations, it is natural to be affected by this continuous repression.

It's like a never-ending cycle of death.

Generate Pain - Enhance Four Hawker - Generate Pain.

Therefore, in Carr's view, this deformed mechanism must be completely changed.

Suffering is not terrible, what is terrible is that these people who suffer will never see the so-called hope.

This is the heart of the Seed of Hope project.

Quantify the results of all the efforts, and return the excess of the traditional rentier nobles to the common people in a visible form.

Only when the extra effort is converted into visible benefits can the despair that comes from not seeing life improve be completely eradicated.

"drop"

As the sightseeing elevator passed through the thick clouds, the outside world returned to the grayish-yellow darkness again.

This is the result of the industrialization of Frank III.

During the rotation of the motor, the metal elevator door, which was polished so brightly that it could even be used as a mirror, opened slowly.

Then what caught Carl's eyes was a whole self-service mechanical supermarket that could be called everything.

As mentioned before, each family building here is a small kingdom with a complete ecological circle.

Here, they are the supreme masters.

This taste of power is so charming, and only in this way can these families maintain their core cohesion.

After all, apart from those geniuses who were sent to the Academy of Loyalty, they were all peers who grew up in the same environment.

Although there will indeed be some inevitable inheritance conflicts, it has been relatively harmonious.

As long as they don't go too far, "losers" like Fu Xu will still have a decent life in the end.

This is a customary guarantee, and there will be certain conventions in the process of encouraging competition within the family.

Only in this way, there will be no farce of family division.

Of course, this kind of harmony is limited to within the family.

If it is between aristocratic families, it is a story of white knives in and red knives out.

However, there is a limit to this tolerance.

If the "losers" frantically take advantage of this kind of tolerance, and even publicly express unfavorable remarks, then Fu Xu, who will be publicly interrogated and executed tomorrow, is the best example.

This place has never been a harmonious Garden of Eden. On the contrary, conspiracy, assassination, and mutual rumor attacks are the basic normality.

Fortunately, for Carl who is holding a lot of parts at the moment, he doesn't need to worry about these problems.

"You know how to make Terminator power armor?"

That was the question raised by Abbadan.

In fact, Aba Dan already saw some of the tricks when he watched Carl pick and choose.

He was all too familiar with these parts.

After all, armor is originally an Astartes life partner.

If you are not familiar with how to maintain your partner, losing the chain on the battlefield can be a fatal situation.

Therefore, most Astartes who have experienced many battles will choose their own armor and maintain it themselves.

It is also because of this that Abba can see Karl's intentions in choosing these parts.

But is this really reasonable?
If any mortal could rub the power armor of a Terminator with his hands, where would he put the face of the great sage of the Mechanicus?

But soon, Karl opened the eyes of Abbadan with his actions.

Skillfully disassemble seemingly unrelated machines one by one, and after taking out some of the parts, put those parts aside for later use.

Soon, all kinds of parts were piled up around him.

The next step is to assemble these parts into a set of Terminator power armor.

As a power armor specially designed and optimized for hand-to-hand combat, it pays more attention to defense and output than the flexible Terminator power armor.

Therefore, the parts required to assemble a Terminator armor can almost be regarded as a super addition.

Fortunately, these parts are more or less produced according to STC (Standard Construction Template).

That's why Karl was able to cobble together a monkey version of the Terminator power armor from a large number of machines.

Although it is castrated compared to the full version, there are parts that cannot be found.

But as far as the finished product is concerned, being able to move, have armor, have weapons, and have melee weapons is enough for Abbadan.

The only pity is that, due to the limited amount of certain key materials, Karl's own estimation has to be delayed again.

Sweating profusely, finally after several hours of busy work.

In the rented workshop, a "brand-new self-use 9.9 new Terminator power armor" was newly released.

Looking back at Abbadan who was speechless, Karl was very satisfied with this pretense.

Only in this way can he "legalize" his recovery wind in the subsequent trial conference.
