Warhammer: I am the Hammer of the Empire.

Chapter 254 The eagle lands, the falcon rises

He is my strongest warrior, dedicated to me.

Like a sculpture, I shape it; in the flames of war, I refine it a hundred times.

My warrior, his heart is like iron, his body is steel;

Wearing the strongest armor, holding the sharpest spear;
Diseases cannot be invaded, ghosts cannot be disturbed;
Practicing strategy in a hundred battles, accompanied by magical soldiers, is invincible.

He is the Guardian of Holy Terra,
He is the defender of mankind,
In the name of space warriors, you have nothing to fear!

——The Supreme Emperor of Humanity

Half a month after the Doom Eagle joined Skadi, the place is still in a state of obedience and disobedience. Space soldiers are not under the command of the Imperial Guard. Even the Sun Lord cannot mobilize those supermen without personal favors. , this is not only the shackles of the Astartes scriptures but also the empire's deliberate effort, as well as the innate arrogance of the Astartes warriors.

Alan Baier saw the inherent arrogance of the fourth company commander, just like the fierce horse, but such a person would be extremely loyal if he was determined. On the contrary, he did not trust those guys who joined Skadi unconditionally.

There may not be unanimous interests without the test of war. If he opens his mouth to be under his own command, then Alan Bayer has to investigate the situation!

So he returned to the conference room and began to communicate with other departments. In essence, the current Doom Eagle has no control over the Master Chief and his subordinates, who have a good relationship.

But he doesn't like the means of oppressing others, but he needs to make the other party realize the pros and cons of cooperating with Skadi. For him, it is just a small plan, but it will also make him deeply involved in the empire's vanity fair. Alan Bayer can only Headaches about what to do with those haughty Space Marines, and sleep late at night.

At the same time, the Destroying Eagles are still gathering, exchanging, having banquets, and constantly entering Skadi. They have become the sharpest blades in the world, but they are not the lord's, just like the captain of the Destroying Eagles said. Normally, the Emperor's super-soldiers are not enslaved by mortals, and it is the kindness of mortals that they are willing not to be called Lords of the Skadi.

The Laitlin boys prepared a lot of food and drinks for them, and at the long table where hundreds of people gathered, many brothers became very fond of Skadi and felt that they could stay here.

And the fourth company commander looked at the brothers who were less than half of the [-]-man table due to the constant fighting at the end of the millennium, and also realized the kindness of Lord Skadi.

"Brothers, we will live here in the future, protecting this world, and the many lives here, under the light of the Emperor."

He opened his mouth to appease the combat brothers who came to the new environment, but they were not necessarily unhappy, such a comfortable place and delicious food, those who were born in the wild world had never enjoyed it.

However, space warriors are not obsessed with desire, they are born swords, sharper and more destructive than any material in this world all the time.

They are satisfied with the momentary experience and at the same time they will not forget their honor. Those warriors are born fierce horses, which are difficult to tame. Except for the responsibility and the battle group that can drive them, food and supplies cannot, and neither can status and rights.

The Ruin Eagles are content with the feeling that they don't need mortal dominion, they soar the skies, ambush the enemies of the Empire, death comes from above, only death will bring them down, they will never rest, they are not falcons, no Will follow orders.

That kind of arrogance and prejudice made them still have a slight rejection of the host or the chef of this wonderful banquet, but some people thought that the food and nests were just bait, and those space fighters soaring into the sky would soon come for him. The Lord of Khadi wields power across the galaxy.

Those orderly warriors took care of themselves, and the mortal servants cleaned up the food scraps. With faint fatigue, the fourth company commander returned to his new room. He didn't want to sleep, but he was doing the most important thing.

He is planning a recruiting method belonging to Skadi according to the strict recruit selection method of the Destroying Eagle. The pharmacist has shown that gene seeds can be stored and cultivated here, and there are stagnation positions to meet various special needs. The natural environment can also meet the needs of recruits for selection.

"This is really a treasure land of geomantic omen..." He muttered to himself, but suddenly noticed a message from his personal data tablet.

He subconsciously flipped through those documents. Generally speaking, the official documents of the empire are distributed on kraft paper. The data here are obviously not official statements, and they are not secrets.

His thick fingers flicked lightly, but the content on it made the big man frown. Soon, it was a dissatisfaction with him, but soon he realized that he had nothing to do with it.

The above is the forge world and fortress world closely related to Skadi, the call of Minatilia, if it is normal, the relationship between the Mechanicus and the space fighters is not too bad, the destruction of the eagle and the foundry of its own star area The world also has a long-term agreement, and now they speak to those people with sincerity, but they will not accompany their words...

The reason why this veteran suffers so much is very complicated. If it is just a weapon, they can rely on technical sergeants to forge it. If it is a space warrior surgery, they can let a pharmacist do it. But only the modified organs that continue the lifeline of the space warrior need to be genetically The sage agrees to cultivate.

When a new set of Space Marine organs is forged, a fertilized egg modified with a gene-seed is implanted in a human slave for testing.

Then the slave spent her whole life in a stagnant experimental capsule, motionless, as a kind of culture medium, and during the long days and months, two sets of pregenomes would be generated in her body.

When the two sets of pre-genomes were developed, they were extracted from the original slave body and implanted into the other two test slave bodies to generate four pre-genomes.

By analogy, it would take 55 years of reproduction to create a healthy set of organs for making Space Marines.

These tasks must be officially approved and carried out by the biological great sage in the Mechanicus, and then approved and actually used by the Chapter Master. Overseeing and approving the use of organs allows them to continue their own staffing.

The Forge World of the local star sector ruthlessly refused to let the veteran feel as if he had been attacked by the tyrant of the Behemoth swarm. His head was buzzing, and the depressed mood was delayed, making him show an uncomfortable expression.

At the same time, another letter of kraft paper brought by a long-distance ship was brought by a timid mortal servant. It was rejected by the governor of Pan Lan's foundry world. The world has closed its doors to Space Marines...

In an instant, a huge force crushed and shattered the poor terminal. The commander of the fourth company held his face weakly and pondered for a long time. He didn't understand why the Mechanicus refused. He wrote the astrologer overnight and asked them to reply. Suddenly, bad news came. The tiredness caused him to close his eyes. For space warriors, he didn't need to sleep for so long, but this time he woke up slowly at noon the next day.

But things didn't get better because of his attitude. Even though he tried his best to please the sages who forged the world, they still refused to provide space warriors with genetic surgery and production organs in this star area. When the Eagles guarded your world, they simply replied that the Lords of Skadi did better...

Those Mechanicum worlds have experienced the hardships brought about by the Red Corsairs, the entire sector has suffered from Space Marines for too long, mistrust and fear, and it is the Imperial Guard who save them instead of the ever-absent Supermen.

Such historical problems have created the reason why the Destroyer Eagle is not recognized today. In contrast, Minatilia is willing to provide them with weapons because of the activeness of the Master Chief, but the help of the genetic sage is invaluable Yes, only close strategic partners can mobilize.

But now it is impossible for them to leave this star area. The cruiser stayed on the satellite of Skadi for repairs, and most of the equipment and personnel also entered the fortress monastery inside the castle. Living under the weather, every relocation is irresponsible to the relics of the warband and the brothers. This situation puts the company commander into a dilemma.

Leaving or perishing, he can even bow down to those casting governors at this moment, but he can't leave his position. Those mental tortures mainly come from his sense of responsibility. Although he is arrogant to mortals, he is responsible to his brothers. very.

That feeling tormented him for the rest of the day, until he got to see his battle-brothers living and working in Skadi, and thought of the fortress that was dying because there were no Space Marines to operate on their organs.

When he stepped into the hall again, most of the combat brothers who saw him at this moment would be amazed at his extremely poor state, his body was no longer as rigid as before, as if fatigue and pain filled his insides, when the emaciated soldier met the non-commissioned officer in the hall Chief, the hero who destroyed the eagle asked his chief in surprise.

"Oh my god, brother, what are you doing?" He put down his task of supervising the expansion of brothers in Skadi, and watched with concern that the once high-spirited warrior became like this.

The soldier had become muscular atrophy and mentally weakened. Although the strong foundation of the space warrior kept him healthy, it was difficult to judge that he had no psychological problems. Although the company commander's voice was still loud, his answers were absent-minded.

"Brother, we have encountered difficulties. It is not the enemy, not the enemy of the empire, but distrust. We cannot integrate into this star area. The red pirates have a lot of bad records. Except for Skadi, other places are full of hostility towards us."

"Someone confuses the Angels of the Empire with the Enemies of the Empire, and they think that we... will become chaotic lackeys anytime, anywhere!"

The Master Chief's valiant cheek changed briefly. "I don't have that feeling. During the time I was fighting, most people had a very good attitude towards me, and there was absolutely no hostility at all."

"That's impossible. The troubles brought about by the maelstrom made Panjaci very hostile to us. The other star regions are similar, as if this is the backbone of the entire region, and we..." He was talking nonsense, analyzing the situation, Then the Master Chief spoke suddenly.

"There is a difference, sir, that is the hero of this sector, the hero of the Imperial Guard, the Lord of Skadi." The Master Chief said.

"He is the spiritual leader of this star area, and you are not the strength of the Skadi Corps. We are outsiders stationed, not the troops of this star area. The judgment point is whether we will be sent by the Lord of Skadi. " he said suddenly.

"I have experienced that kind of unifying ability in the expeditionary army. The Mechanics in this star area, the Imperial Guard, and the citizens of the Empire are all looking forward to heroes to save them. The person who started the expedition at this moment is the Lord of Skadi. In this star area , he is the Emperor's will." After the Master Chief finished speaking, the company commander showed an incredulous expression.

"You said, I must obey the regional power? Obey the strong power?"

said the Master Chief. "No, he is not a power freak. He resigned from the position of Lord of the Sun. He has made remarkable military achievements. He walked into Terra and can now command the panorama of the empire. Only by continuing the life of the empire beyond the Great Wall can human civilization continue.”

"How can you be sure, this world is hopeless, I don't know who can give me hope." The company commander fell into a depression, a hopeless depression for this rotten world.

"He told me...the Primarch will return, in the future, more appropriate than any prophecy, he is very special, I have a 9% feeling that the great Primarch will wake up, father will wake up." After the Master Chief finished, the company commander Suddenly froze.

"Father...then, it's possible...it's possible, it's possible!" He walked around the hall in a hurry, walked a few times, the previous fatigue was swept away, he called the mortal servant, he had already figured it out, and obeyed the mortal army Not necessarily disgraceful, even if the Destroyer Eagle lands on the ground, he has to wait. If that day really exists, he must go to Terra to worship.

He brought brown paper and scribbled beautiful handwriting on it with a quill pen, and such a decision was to a certain extent rebellious against the Codex Astartes, but since most chapters regarded the Codex as rubbish, he announced it indifferently.

This star sector quickly spread the strange astrological language, that is, the proud space warrior chapter exists in the real universe of the Lord of Skadi every time, the Doom Eagle chapter will obey his personal orders, but they do not It is not an unconditional obedience, but the commander will determine the specific situation, but this order is peculiar enough.

The fact that the interstellar warriors served mortals almost confirmed the concept that Lord Alan Bair was chosen by the emperor. In this star sector, this news was forwarded by most of the worlds, and it even spread tens of millions of light years before it stopped.

This kind of miracle is not caused by oppression. What really makes the space warriors change their minds is actually hope. It is that hope that makes them give up their hearts and stop chasing death. Like the Master Chief, the eagle landed, but it is still sharp.
