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

Chapter 192: Being robbed by the greenskins is also a good thing

Early in the morning, at his residence in the Epimet Royal Court, Li Nuo woke up with a smile.

It’s fun to play with memes, and it’s fun to play with memes all the time.

Especially when playing memes in front of the Primarch, it's even more fun~
When Li Nuo said the words "I am Rog Dorn", he was actually standing in front of the communicator.

He saw the changes in Lion El'Jonson's facial expressions, which were simply wonderful.

One part confusion, three parts puzzlement, six parts astonishment, and ninety parts bewilderment.

What's wrong with the Primarch? The Primarch would be confused even if he encountered a bad plot!
"Quack quack~"

Li Nuo smiled secretly and looked at the system interface.

Bond 3 has the genetic fragments of a skilled fighter.

At the last moment before the atmospheric incineration torpedo hit the ground, Li Nuo used vibration magic to split the earth and protect the inner ring veterans, while launching the power of thinking on the atmospheric incineration torpedo.

The situation was urgent at the time and he had no time to check what he had figured out. No matter what the system said, he just closed his eyes and pressed "Confirm".

He was curious whether he had learned any mechanical wizardry similar to "atmospheric incineration torpedoes".

【This Waaaagh simulation ends. 】

【Settlement in progress.】

[You killed 102 Onyx strongmen, score +2040. ]

[You foiled a plot by Shadow Weaver Zelfax, score +30.]

[This simulation earned a total of 30.2 simulation points. ]

[Remaining simulation points: approximately 242 million. ]

Before the Waaagh simulation began, Li Nuo remembered clearly that he had more than 700 million simulation points left, but now there are only a little over 200 million left.

This means that the blueprint he exchanged at the last minute cost him more than 500 million simulation points.

This is definitely a powerful and cool mechanical wizardry blueprint!
Li Nuo sat up straight and read the system messages with excitement.

[Searching the genetic knowledge base of Jiba, looking for mechanical sorcery related to "Whirlwind Torpedo". 】

【Search completed.】

【Search results: 3 item. 】

[After removing the options that cannot be redeemed due to insufficient simulation points, there is still 1 item left in the search results. ]

[Name: Heaven-shattering Boom.]

[Learning cost: 50 skill points.]

【illustrate:】

[This is a powerful weapon against carbon-based organisms. ]

[The production process is extremely complicated and requires the cooperation of upstream, midstream and downstream industries to produce it. ]

[Due to their low IQ and lack of industrial synergy, it is basically impossible for severely degraded orcs to produce such weapons. 】

[The principle of this tactical weapon is:]

[Use the fermentation liquid extracts of Archaean Hydrogen Fungi, Archaean Crystal Fungi, and Archaean Fuel Fungi to prepare atmospheric catalysts. ]

[The catalyst can transform the planet's atmosphere into a mixture of hydrogen, oxygen, deuterium and tritium.]

[Use any method to detonate the atmosphere to form the first explosion, provide a high temperature and high pressure environment, promote the fusion reaction of deuterium and tritium, and form a global hydrogen bomb explosion. ]

[You spend 500 million simulation points to learn this mechanical wizardry. ]

[Due to the death of Bond III, the learning process was interrupted. Do you want to continue learning? 】

"Hi-ho, a global hydrogen bomb explosion!"

Li Nuo nodded with a smile, feeling satisfied, and poked the "Continue Learning" button with his mind.

The knowledge of mechanical witchcraft surged in his mind, and Li Nuo was stunned for more than a minute before he came back to his senses.

After reading the witchcraft knowledge, Li Nuo couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

Shocking Boom is powerful and has a wide attack range, and has an extinction effect on carbon-based organisms.

But just as described on the panel, it involves collaborative cooperation among the upstream, midstream and downstream industrial chains.

Its production process is very complicated, in simple terms it is as follows:
First, prepare the fermentation extracts of the ancient hydrogen-oxygen fungi, the ancient crystal fungi, and the ancient fuel fungi to make the precursors of the catalyst. Each gram of the finished product requires 10 portions of universal spiritual energy materials.
Build a cryogenic distillation device to separate the precursor substances and obtain the precursor concentrate. Each gram of the finished product requires 10 portions of universal spiritual energy materials.
Build a magnetic confinement plasma reactor and use the precursor concentrate to generate an atmospheric catalyst. Each finished product consumes 10 pieces of universal psychic materials.
Construct a fully enclosed large-boom production workshop and load the atmospheric catalyst into the missile's warhead. This step does not require universal psychic materials.

Once you master the correct method, making a stunning explosion is not difficult, but it is extremely dangerous.

The products of each production step cannot come into contact with the atmospheric environment.

For example, the concentrated precursor material produced in the second step.

When this thing comes into contact with the atmosphere, it will convert the air in a large area into a mixture of hydrogen, oxygen and deuterium. If you are not careful, it will cause a huge explosion.

In theory, it would be best to build a massive production line in a vacuum.

A vacuum environment is not necessarily a space environment; it can also be artificial.

Li Nuo thought that he could build an extremely airtight workshop underground, specifically for the production of the Great Boom.

With Jingtian Dahonghong, you can quickly earn simulation points.

In anticipation of massive simulated points, Li Nuo started his day's work.

Epimate's daily operations are proceeding normally.

The security database is steadily updated, and the first generation of synthetic starch is produced and sold as usual.

The development progress of the RNA vaccine for Bone Drinkers has reached 90%, and it is expected that this perfect vaccine can be produced in about seven or eight days.

Li Nuo prepared this vaccine specifically for the people around him.

They will be the first to receive RNA vaccines, gain lifelong immunity against Bone Drinkers, and build a human defense line around themselves to isolate Bone Drinkers.

As for whether to exchange this vaccine for rewards from the Human Empire, or use it to make money.

After careful consideration, Li Nuo rejected the idea.

First of all, he is not short of money.

Secondly, he still understands the principle that a big tree attracts the wind.

Previously, the security database was shared with the Imperial Military Affairs Department, which led to retaliation from the Bone Drinkers, and Gamma-class psykers came uninvited.

If the RNA vaccine was shared with the Imperial Munitions Department, the Bone Drinkers might send a dozen gamma-class psykers at once to annihilate himself and Epimet in one fell swoop.

Li Nuo is not afraid of psychics, but the same cannot be said for Epimet.

This hive carries the fruits of one's hard work, and it could easily be destroyed when facing multiple Gamma-class psychics, so one should take it easy and not be too high-profile in everything.

On the other hand, the production of Granite 5 is gradually getting back on track.

The 131st Regiment of the Solar Army left behind three companies and set off to other worlds of the Empire to quell the rebellion.

Fuges was appointed interim governor, responsible for rebuilding the orbital tower and the city.

In order to speed up the reconstruction process, Li Nuo is collecting second-hand cruisers.

During the Great Crusade, the productivity of the human empire was very high.

From the almost extinct Terminator armor and fine power armor in the 40k era, to the most common ship - the Moon-class cruiser, they can all be purchased with throne coins, and the delivery speed is very fast.

Li Nuo wrote a letter to the Forge World Demos, asking if there were any obsolete cruisers for sale.

He thought he would have to bargain with Demos for a while before reaching a deal.

Unexpectedly, Demos threw a list at him and let him choose at will.

The number of ships on the list is overwhelming.

Fifty second-hand Sword-class frigates retired by the Imperial Military Affairs Department are all in stock, docked in Demos's low-ground orbit, just waiting for someone to buy them.

There are fifteen retired Moon-class cruisers, Dominator-class cruisers, and Dictator-class cruisers, all of which are in stock, with clear prices, and will be sold as long as you pay.

If you think these ships are not good-looking, Demos also sells noble customized cruisers, which are modified versions obtained by extensively renovating second-hand cruisers.

Demos gave this customized ship a nice name, called the Regal-class Cruiser. The price was doubled, but it was great value for money and was almost the same as a new one.

Li Nuo took a look at his financial account.

Cash balance: 267 billion. A second-hand Moon-class cruiser costs 600 million throne coins. Let's get 10 of them, specifically for transporting supplies to Glenit 5.

As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and the governor relies on his car.

The landing price of the Regal-class cruiser was 1200 million Throne Coins each. Li Nuo waved his hand and bought one for himself and Fu Gais, equipped with all crew members and shipboard equipment for transporting important personnel and valuables.

After spending 7200 million throne coins, Li Nuo felt relaxed and happy, and continued his shopping spree.

As the production capacity of synthetic starch increases in the future, the existing rail airport throughput will be overloaded.

In addition, after the exploration results of the sub-star region come out, the development of new planets requires supporting logistics facilities.

After comprehensive consideration, Li Nuo ordered a space assembly workshop, a logistics hub space station and a second-hand space fortress from Demos.

The space assembly workshop is used to produce weapons and ammunition for shuttles, barges, space containers and space fortresses.

There is no need to explain much about the purpose of the logistics hub space station. It is an important facility for gathering and distributing goods and personnel.

By using the cargo shuttle to transport the synthetic starch from the Chaodu Airport to the logistics hub space station, and then diverting it through the latter, the logistics pressure of the Chaodu Airport can be greatly reduced.

Second-hand space fortresses are used to strengthen Epimet's low-orbit defenses.

Although it is named "fortress", it is not static.

Like a small satellite, it orbits Epimet several times a day, scanning the conditions on the ground and in near-ground orbit in all directions.

It is also equipped with laser arrays and missile arrays, which can be used for both air and ground attacks. It can also block waterways and restrict ships from entering and exiting near-ground orbits, making it quite practical.

The three space stations cost a total of 1.2 million throne coins.

Even after spending so much money, it’s not over yet.

After completing the exploration of the sub-star region, Li Nuo experienced firsthand what it meant to spend money like water.

"Mr. Wilsey, I am Perlach, the leader of the 915th Exploration Team of the 13th Expedition Fleet. The person next to me is the cartographer Elvy."

In the office, Li Nuo welcomed two visitors.

Perachi is a middle-aged man in his forties, the Son of the Void, born and raised in space, with light blue skin.

After entering the surface environment, he was a little uncomfortable with the planet's gravity, and he felt short of breath and weak when he spoke.

Elvy, who was beside Perachi, was a female cartographer from Terra, who graduated from Terra Zhongsi College. Although she was only in her early twenties, she was as old-fashioned as someone in her forties or fifties.

She wore thick glasses, had two deep wrinkles on both sides of her mouth, and looked very serious.

These two members of the exploration team from the 915th Expedition Fleet completed the exploration of the sub-star region a few days ago. Today they came to meet Li Nuo and submit their exploration report.

Li Nuo greeted them briefly and invited them to sit down next to the holographic device.

Elvy connected the datapad to the holo-device.

The star map of the sub-star region emerged.

This is a cubic starry sky model with a side length of 20 light years, and the star system where Epimet is located is located in the center.

Elvy introduced:

"Sir, Epimet is located in the Carina-Sagittarius spiral arm of the Milky Way. This spiral arm has many young stars and star clusters, as well as rich molecular clouds and ionized hydrogen layers. In this sub-region, I have marked the planets, molecular clouds and ionized hydrogen layers with mining value in green, blue and red on the star map."

Li Nuo glanced at the star map and was in a good mood.

The areas of green, blue and red are not small.

Planets worth mining are evenly distributed in the sub-stellar region, while molecular clouds and ionized hydrogen layers are concentrated in the lower corner of the three-dimensional model.

The main components of molecular clouds are hydrogen molecules, which are low temperature and high pressure.

The main component of the ionosphere is ionized hydrogen, high temperature and high pressure.

Both can use the Mechanicus's industrial ships and gas cloud collection stations for collection, which has both high risks and high profits.

"Elvy, what is that dark shadow between the molecular cloud and the ionized hydrogen layer? Could it be a black hole?"

Li Nuo pointed at the black mass in the corner of the three-dimensional model and asked.

Elvy operated on the data board and enlarged the image of the black mass, showing two celestial bodies painted black:
"Sir, these are two very dangerous celestial bodies, one is a neutron star and the other is a supernova. We speculate that this was originally a binary solar system.

"One of the stars entered its late stage and exploded as a supernova, becoming a neutron star. The high-energy particles it ejected caused the other star to enter its late stage early, becoming the current supernova."

Li Nuo nodded as if he understood something and said:

"That is to say, it is currently impossible to mine the gaseous cloud there, right? The high-energy particle storm is likely to destroy the gas cloud collection station and industrial ship."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

It’s okay not to collect gas clouds and the like for the time being. The focus should be on planets with development value.

Most solar systems have at least two stars, commonly known as binary star systems or multiple star systems.

A single star system with only one star is one in a million.

Li Nuo checked the planets one by one that were worth mining and found that one of them was actually a single star system, which was the best choice for developing an agricultural world.

This planet is numbered as Epimet DE and is located in the lower half of the sub-region, in the easternmost corner.

"Elvy, is there intelligent life on this planet?" Li Nuo asked.

Elvy and team leader Perachi looked at each other.

Perachi sat up straight, and said with all his strength:

"Sir, this planet is the key point we want to emphasize with you. We have to regretfully inform you that there is an alien civilization on this planet that is hostile to the human empire."

When Li Nuo heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he had a premonition that he would bleed heavily in a war of civilization conquest.

But what Perachi said next almost made Li Nuo lose control.

"Do you know orcs?" asked Perachi.

"What?" Li Nuo was stunned, and a strange thought came to his mind...

Could there be orcs on the planet Epimate DE?!

Perachi thought that Li Nuo didn't know the name of the green-skinned uncle, so he asked Elvy to retrieve the orc's archives and introduce him:
"The scientific name of orcs is Ork. They are one of the most powerful aliens. Their main range of activities is the Ullanor system. There are also scattered orc warlords wandering in other system, and some have even formed empires, but the Orc Empire in the Ullanor system is undoubtedly the most powerful. The Imperial Army has been fighting with the Ullanor Orc Empire in the edge of the system all year round."

Perachi paused, and said with a hint of sadness:
"I have to inform you that we have discovered several Orc troops on the planet Epimet DE, among which there is at least one Orc warlord and several Orc tribes."

“???” Li Nuo was stunned again and again.

Perachi spread his hands helplessly:

"According to our observations, these orc troops are from the Ullanor Orc Empire. They should have arrived on this planet three months ago. They reproduce very quickly, and their development momentum is amazing. Conservative estimates show that within a year at most, they will be able to pose a threat to your sub-sector."

"But isn't Epimet in the Solar Sector? How could the Ullanor Orc Empire infiltrate here?"

Li Nuo was speechless.

"Sir, this is indeed the case, and this kind of invasion is very common." Perachi looked helpless and tactfully persuaded Li Nuo to accept the reality:

"When the Orc ships are sailing in the warp, they don't need the light of the Astronomican. This means that their fleets may appear in any corner of the galaxy, even Terra. I'm sorry, I'm just giving an example. I don't really want the Orcs to pose a threat to Terra. In short, Your Excellency, I suggest that you organize people to attack the Orc troops on the planet Epimet DE as soon as possible. I think the Imperial Army should be able to lend you a hand."

Li Nuo was silent for a while, and felt even more speechless.

I was building massive infrastructure on the planet Palu in the Midrak Expansion, but my home was stolen by the greenskins without my knowledge!
Outrageous!

After I finish arranging the construction of the huge production line tonight, I will go to the Epimate DE planet to check out the situation.

Damn it, which orc warlord is so blind as to dare to run into my territory and act wildly!
Do you really think my system is just for show?!
As Li Nuo fell silent, the atmosphere in the office became somewhat solemn.

Perachi coughed lightly and said:

"Sir, the invasion of Epimet DE by orcs is not entirely a bad thing."

Perachi laughed awkwardly:
"According to statistics from the Imperial Military Affairs Department, the invasion of orcs can effectively improve the ecological environment of the planet. The barren planet will be rejuvenated with greenery, and the already vibrant planet will become even more jubilant. Think about it in a positive way. Putting aside the destructiveness of the orcs, they are also an excellent tool for improving the natural environment."

Li Nuo understands all these principles.

There is a lot of infrastructure construction on the planet Palu, burning coal, smelting steel, and producing fuel for plasma furnaces day and night, but the sky is still blue and the clouds are white. This is all thanks to the positive feedback of the orcs and Squigs to the natural environment.

Their bodies can be turned into fertilizer to nourish the soil, feed back to fields, grasslands, forests and hills, and quickly repair the damaged surface.

With the use of Hydrococcus bioreactors to purify water sources, there are almost no traces of industrial pollution on the planet Palu.

Li Nuo pulled the corner of his mouth and forced out a bitter smile:
"Okay, I will arrange a punitive team as soon as possible. I hope the Imperial Army can find time to come and help."
