I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 163: It is imperative to suppress the rebellion at the speed of light

Chapter 163: It is imperative to suppress the rebellion at the speed of light
Hovendi sector, Granite sub-sector, star system of the same name, planet No. 5.

The subspace exit emerged in the void more than a thousand kilometers away from the surface.

The 131st Solar Army and Epimet's auxiliary corps entered the real universe.

The fleet was commanded by an Oberon-class battleship, and the rest of the ships were battlecruisers, frigates and heavy transport ships.

A fleet of more than 5 ships completed self-inspection and space information calibration in the void, and sailed towards Granite in a stable manner.

Thick black clouds envelop the planet, containing large amounts of dust and chemical pollutants from the mining and pre-processing of promethium ore.

The violent air currents on the surface pushed the black clouds. Looking down from the near-ground orbit, the clouds rose and fell violently like the sea surface, and tornadoes of all sizes formed spiral eye of the wind.

In the endless black sea of clouds, the track tower firmly extends its tip out of the dark clouds.

The space dock around the spire had been blown up, the corridors were broken into pieces, and the plastic steel floor was dragged in the air by steel cables and swayed in the wind.

Also swaying in the air were the bodies of the former planetary governor's entire family. They had long since dried and turned black, and their original appearance could no longer be recognized.

"My Terra, what a sin this is." Captain Rane sighed in a low voice and said to several deputies below the command desk:
"Turn the power of the Auger matrix to maximum and scan every corner of the planet. Send a frigate to collect the bodies of the former governor and his family. Be careful to identify whether it is a trap and make sure it is safe before taking action. Notify the artillery formation to prepare for ground bombing."

"Yes, sir." The sound array master responded and turned on the internal broadcast channel to convey Captain Larn's instructions.

Under command, a frigate left the queue and approached the top of the orbital tower.

The frigate discovered explosives hidden in corpses while moving.

The mechanical priest on the ship controlled the engineering mechanical arms outside the ship to defuse the bombs remotely, remove the bodies, and transport them back to the fleet.

The desecration of the corpse undoubtedly angered the fleet that came to quell the rebellion.

Their wrath will fall from the sky along with the artillery fire, bringing death and repentance to the enemies on the surface.

However, the scanning results of the Auger matrix were not good.

"Commander, the pollutants in the cloud have weakened the scan, but we still got the necessary information. The scan results show that a large number of humanoid life forms have gathered in the main production facilities on the surface. I found that these people only have the simplest miners' uniforms and simple mining tools. They are not equipped with thermal weapons."

The mechanical priest who controlled the Auger Matrix turned on the holographic projection, showing the scan results of the planet, and continued:

"As you can see, Commander, I found many vague life signals in the underground mines, train tracks, dormitories, and workshops. They were carrying weapons, ammunition, explosives, and were suspected of having plastic steel armor, and they were all in motion.

"I didn't find any signal source deeper underground, that is, in the area below 100 meters. This is very abnormal. According to the layout of this planet, that place should be an underground warehouse where promethium ore is piled up, and it should feedback strong chemical signals. I reasonably suspect that someone has set up a signal blocker to avoid our scans."

Hearing that there were humans without weapons on the surface, the atmosphere in the bridge became tense.

"The leader of this rebel army is extraordinary. He knows how to use civilians to resist orbital bombardment." Rahn thought and looked at Delton in the other corner of the command desk, wanting to hear what his old boss had to say.

Delton shrugged at him.

"We are at your disposal, Captain. I have retired."

The end of Rahn's goatee twitched, he retracted his gaze, put his hands behind his back, and said to the crowd below the podium in a serious tone:

"The Marine Recruits Company, listen up, send shuttles into the atmosphere, and use radio and wireless communications in the air to guide the refugees on the surface to gather at the bottom of the orbital tower. The Marine Veterans Company is preparing to airdrop, and set up a 30-kilometer radius warning zone with the orbital tower as the center. The Second, Third, and Fourth Marine Companies, cruise in the air in shuttles, and immediately warn anyone carrying hot weapons. If the warning is ineffective, kill them on the spot..."

Rahn gave quick orders and the ships in the fleet began to move.

The Imperial Army's ground forces are responsible for combat in the atmospheric environment, including both traditional land battles on the surface and air combat.

After Laan gave his order, Fu Ge Si walked forward and whispered to him.

The first step in rebuilding the planet is to let the refugees on the planet know the name of the new governor and spread the new governor's mission to rebuild the planet.

In order to establish prestige and a positive image as quickly as possible, Fugais would have his guards bring the necessary supplies to the ground and distribute them in an orderly manner under the protection of the Marine Company.

In addition, basic infrastructure necessary for life, such as water purifiers, sewage pools, dry toilets, heaters, and medical stations, will also be built by the Epimet Auxiliary Forces.

After the two of them discussed it, Ran gave a formal combat order to the Epimet auxiliary army, and the auxiliary army under Fuges's command could set off at any time.

The commander of the auxiliary army was Delton, not Vogue.

Fu Gaisi only knows how to produce and manage, but not how to command.

Under Delton's arrangement, the veteran company of the auxiliary army was responsible for ground security, and the other companies were responsible for construction tasks. Fugais's guards would communicate with possible leaders among the refugees in the name of Fugais.

In this way, the auxiliary troops on the three heavy transport ships began to land.

The dark clouds and strong winds caused some trouble to the landing process, and the violent turbulence almost scared the auxiliary troops who had never performed orbital descent.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly and no one was injured during the landing.

Fughes' personal bodyguard is the No. 1 Governor's Guard.

This time they all came.

The captain of the guard was the man Li Nuo met at the door of the governor's office when he first met Fugai.

After he reached the surface, he reached into his backpack and took out a device similar to a drone.

After activating the device, the fan blades of the "drone" rotate rapidly, spraying a stream of air.

"Om——"

The "drone" flew out like a missile and disappeared in the haze on the surface in a short while.

"Uh, captain, what was that just now?" the team member asked in confusion.

The captain of Guard No. 1 shook his head:
"Lord Vorges asked me to release that thing on the ground. It is said to be a small invention of the deputy governor. I am not sure what it is used for."

The team member shrugged, "Oh, okay."

The captain took out the communicator and said to Fu Gesi on the bridge:
"My Lord, the Vice-Governor's device has taken off."

"Yeah, okay, I got it." Vorges closed the communication, wrote an astropathic message on the data pad, and handed it to the fleet's astropathic team (Note 1) to send to Epimet.

...

...

Epimet, Royal Court, Shatana's hut.

Li Nuo is dealing with the Star Language letters piled up at Shatana's place.

Ever since the news of the sale of the synthetic starch formula spread from the Solar Star Region to the other four star regions, new star language letters have been delivered to Shatana every day.

Li Nuo comes to deal with it every few days, and discusses the details of the transaction plan with Shatana.

The transaction date has been confirmed, which is May 5 this year, one month earlier than the originally planned end of June.

The transaction took place in the first district of Epimet, the reception manor owned by Fuges.

That place had hosted a banquet for the auction of ghost mushrooms, and Li Nuo was quite familiar with it.

Speaking of ghost mushrooms, Li Nuo had to give himself a thumbs up for his wise decision.

There was news from Terra recently that the experiment on ghost mushrooms had failed and the Imperial Medical Department was unable to eliminate the negative effects of this mushroom.

The Justice Ministry's injunction should be sent to the governors this month.

Anyone who receives a ban must obediently and proactively hand over the ghost mushrooms to the Ministry of Justice.

From now on, anyone who secretly grows ghost mushrooms or makes ghost potions will be raided by the Ministry of Justice.

Will those buyers who paid high prices for the mushrooms feel resentful towards Epimite?
Didn’t you advertise that mushrooms would not be banned by the Ministry of Justice?
It's because of your lies that we spent a lot of money to bid for mushrooms.

Aren’t you, Epimate, prepared to pay some money as a token of your appreciation?
It means chicken feather.

All the guys who told you that mushrooms would not be banned are dead.

Want compensation? Sure, go downstairs and ask them for it.

Li Nuo received no less than ten letters from Star Language asking for compensation in the past few days, and he responded to all of them.

There is no compensation, but you can get a small discount of several million Throne Coins when buying the starch formula.

As the letters went back and forth, the person asking for compensation became the buyer of the formula.

As of today, the transaction volume on May 5st reached 31 billion Throne Coins.

This amount of money is a lot at the planetary governor level, but it is just a drop in the bucket at the sub-sector and sector level.

But no matter how you look at it, this was a huge amount of wealth that Li Nuo had never dared to imagine before he traveled through time. It really gave him the illusion that he was living in a dream.

"Well, I have finally finished dealing with the backlog of correspondence over the past few days."

Li Nuo stood up from the table and moved his shoulders and neck.

Satana was sitting on the sofa knitting a sweater. Suddenly, a faint spiritual energy fluctuation emanated from her body, and a hidden light flashed in her eyes.

"Li Nuo, there is news about your father."

Shatana used her mind to control the paper and pen to write down Fuges's astronomical message.

Li Nuo read it once, and a look of joy flashed in his eyes.

"They have finally arrived. Ma'am, I will take my leave now. I will come back to discuss the encryption code with you tomorrow."

Li Nuo said goodbye to Shatana and returned to his office.

Tido now comes to his place every day to use the "computer", spends 10 minutes handling official business, and then spends half an hour checking the "computer"'s processing results, and spends the rest of the time writing crisis plans for the hive city.

Li Nuo told Tido that Fugas had successfully arrived at Granite 5, and then found an excuse to enter the private laboratory.

Click on the system interface and select the second reward of Waaagh simulation. [Reward 2: Search for the orc you specified and simulate it.]

[Please describe exactly what kind of orc you want to simulate.]

"A special warfare boy developed from special warfare spores."

Special Operations Spore is the abbreviation of "Special Operations Boy's Reproductive Spore", a name given by Li Nuo himself.

[Searching for orcs related to the description. ]

【...】

【Search completed.】

【Found 1 simulation subject that meets the search criteria. 】

Li Nuo nodded with satisfaction.

As expected, the small device developed and manufactured by myself worked smoothly.

It was a micro-aircraft controlled by the brain of a fart spirit. The metal on the outside had anti-electromagnetic effects and was immune to detection.

The metal shell is interlayered with an anti-psychic lead layer, providing a second layer of anti-detection effect.

The aircraft is filled with the special warfare boy's spores and several alchemical potions related to development and growth.

In addition to these, Li Nuo also installed a "cracker killer" to ensure that when this object is violently disassembled, the contents and the disassembler will be blown up together.

Such a device will become the starting point for accelerating the suppression of the rebellion on Granite 5.

Li Nuo doesn't have the time to wait for a year or two.

According to his plan, Granite 5 must resume production before receiving the Throne Coin on May 31, perfectly connecting with his plan to enter the promethium industry.

"Time is money, my friend, let's get to work."

Li Nuo clicked on the search results and started the simulation.

【Start calculating the simulated price. 】

[The simulation object is the special warfare boy, and the starting price for the simulation is 10 magic spores. ]

[The simulated object has undergone deep genetic modification, and its genetic purity is only 20% compared to the standard special warfare boy. The simulation price has increased by 500%. ]

[The final simulated price is 20*(1+500%)=120 magical spore. ]

[Remaining simulation points: 174 million. ]

[Number of magical spores: 13353. ]

[You consume 120 magical spores to start the simulation.]

The consciousness left the body and quickly traveled through the sea of stars.

Soon, Li Nuo saw Granite 5.

The dark clouds made people feel depressed. The fleet in the planet's orbit was busy, with a large number of landing capsules and shuttles traveling back and forth between orbit and the surface.

Li Nuo's falling direction deviated from the fleet and finally landed in a valley dozens of kilometers away from the orbital tower.

His consciousness entered the body of the skinny special forces boy, and everything went dark before his eyes.

Open your eyes and look towards your feet.

The "drone" is burning, and the shell and contents are turned to charcoal in the flames.

Don't panic, this is normal.

After the special warfare boy is successfully born, the fart spirit of the "drone" will execute the self-destruct command and send itself off with gorgeous fireworks.

Li Nuo lowered his head and glanced at his body.

He is about 1.5 meters tall, bald and has bronze skin.

Very good, very nice, another Alpharius named Bond.

Li Nuo used up his points, created a character archive, and saved Bond 2.

The valley in front of us was covered with thick black ash, and many black suspended particles like fragments were floating in the air, like ash rain near a volcano.

There were several shallow footprints on the ground, but the marks were covered in black ash and were almost invisible.

Working backwards based on the speed at which the black ash accumulates, this set of footprints should have appeared no more than 72 Terra hours ago.

There were no living creatures or insects in the valley, and the howling wind made people feel cold.

Looking into the distance in the direction of the footprints, about two or three kilometers away, a very faint fire flickered in the haze.

Li Nuo activated the bacterial ability - vibration sensing.

The sound of the wind filled my mind.

The stones were blown by the wind and rolled down the cliff, making crackling sounds.

Several different sounds were heard coming from the direction of the fire.

Someone threw solid promethium into the fuel barrel and used a metal stick to turn the promethium block to make the flame in the barrel more vigorous.

Above the fuel barrel, the kettle gurgled and emitted mist, and the voices of several men were heard nearby.

"The Imperial Army has arrived."

"I know."

"Should we wait for them to come and take us away, or should we take the initiative to gather at the base of the orbital tower?"

"Let's wait for them to bring the shuttle over to take us there. I'm too lazy to walk such a long distance."

"The new governor must want to show off. If we don't take advantage of him, we're not giving him face."

While several people were talking, the creaking sound of a door opening came into Li Nuo's mind, and a new person appeared at the scene.

The man had a deep voice and an unquestionable tone. He seemed to be the leader of these people:
"There is an order from headquarters. Those who hear the broadcast must gather at the orbital tower. When everyone is almost there, someone will send a signal. After hearing the signal, start a riot immediately. Do you understand?"

"Fuck. You want us to walk over there? You must be kidding."

"Boss, why don't we wait here for the shuttle to take us over?"

"Bang." The leader of the group slammed the table:
"Don't talk nonsense. We will do what the headquarters says. There is food and drink in the security area, first come first served. If you don't go, don't blame me for not leaving some for you."

"..Okay. Let's go then."

"Rustle, rustle..."

A group of people were packing their luggage inside the house.

broadcast?

What broadcast?
Li Nuo was puzzled by the "broadcast" mentioned by these people.

At this moment, the roar of thrusters was heard from the distant sky, and the so-called broadcast synchronization was transmitted.

"We are the 131st Solar Army. We are the security guards of the Empire, defenders of order, and enforcers of justice. Anyone who hears this broadcast, please go to the orbital tower immediately. There is food, water, and medicine in the security area there, and your safety will be guaranteed."

That's what happened.

The 131st Legion is gathering refugees from the surface for unified resettlement near the orbital tower.

The people who were talking just now seemed to have ulterior motives.

They planned to disguise themselves as refugees, sneak into the security area, and wait for an opportunity to cause a riot.

They mentioned the word "headquarters", which shows that they were organized and premeditated.

It seems that the rebels on this planet had planned this all along.

They took corresponding countermeasures in response to the arrival of the Imperial Army.

Li Nuo thought for a moment, then took out "Brother Mao's black hair" from the fungus warehouse and applied it evenly on his body.

After some preparation, a special warfare boy who was immune to detection appeared.

Li Nuo activated the bacterial ability - optical invisibility, and ran towards the fire quickly and steadily.

Soon, a tin house embedded in the rock wall came into view.

Firelight flickered in the windows, and several figures were preparing for a long journey.

Li Nuo observed outside the house for a while, and after confirming that there were no traps or the like nearby, he quietly entered the house.

After throwing out a few brain-stiffening spells, they grabbed daggers and stabbed each man. The short battle ended with the sound of a heavy object falling.

There was only one survivor in the house, and he was the leader of these people.

Li Nuo controlled the opponent with brain freeze, took out truth serum from the fungus warehouse, and stabbed the opponent's neck with the needle.

...

Note 1: The Star Language Team was renamed the Star Language Choir after the establishment of the state religion. The name sounded better, but the efficiency became even worse.
