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

Chapter 233 The Temptation of Stinky Canned Food
"Boss, when are you going to send a fleet to wipe out all the shrimp? I can't wait any longer."

The orc named Guruk shouted loudly, sounding impatient.

The response was a roar that was louder, more savage, and more wrathful:

"Wait! I'm fighting that sharp-beaked kid on Yarasos! I'll be over there when I'm done!"

"Snapped!"

A sharp sound came from the other end of the phone; the communication had been forcibly interrupted by the Orc Emperor, Ulgri.

The psionic boy inside the howling box died, and blood and slime seeped out from the cracks.

Li Nuo opened the system interface, selected the second option for the waaagh simulation, manually searched for Ulger, and attempted to simulate it.

The simulation subject is the Orc Emperor, and the starting price is 1 million Magical Spores.

【...】

[The simulated object is in combat; the simulated price increases by 100%.]

The final simulated price is 180 billion Magic Spores.

[You do not have enough Magic Spores to perform the simulation.]

Ulger claims he is fighting with the Pointy-Beaked Boy—a Space Marine.

The system message displayed "The simulated object is in combat," confirming that Ulger's statement was true.

Li Nuo created a simulated save file for the current farting bastard and then "logged off" on the spot.

Consciousness returned to the human body, and the scene of the governor's office came into view.

Using his governorship, Li Nuo searched the database and found Yarasos's battle report.

That place is located in the central part of the Kyle Kelly sector, an industrial world.

The two sides involved included the 37th Regiment of the Sun Army, the 131st Company of the Death Guard, and several Ulanor Orc units, and the battle was extremely intense.

The two sides first met more than ten days ago, and the fight has continued without a clear winner.

This is mainly because Yarasos possesses a vast underground industrial system, with an extremely deep strategic depth and excellent defensive capabilities in its underground fortifications.

The mortal army and the orcs fought underground, with the battle going back and forth.

The three companies of the Death Guard engaged in space warfare with the Orcs, boarding each other and vying for air superiority.

Conservatively speaking, there will be no results within half a month.

Li Nuo logged into the "account" of "Poison Nail" Yaxen.

Upon opening my eyes, a huge dock came into view, dominating the view below.

Yaksen liked to climb high and look out, and Li Nuo logged into the "account" twice, both times he was on a high place keeping watch.

Li Nuo leaped down from the platform, landing easily with the grappling hook, and waved to the boy with the clatter not far away:

"Oh, are there any flights to Yarasos?"

Kada Boy flipped through the animal hide notebook in his hand:
"Yes, there are flights every hour. The next flight will take off in ten minutes."

“Take me there. By the way, how many days does it take to get from here to Yarasos?” Li Nuo asked as they walked.

Kaka Boy led Li Nuo to a frigate:

"It should arrive in about three days."

"So fast?" Li Nuo was somewhat surprised, then remembered that the megalithic space fortress they were currently in was located at the border of the Pamela and Kyle Kelly star sectors.

"Of course! Our boats are famous for being fast!" the boy boasted happily.
"They build fast, set sail fast, and bomb fast too. For the past ten days or so, ships have been flying to Yarasos every day, but not a single one has returned. I figured you'd be in for a major disaster if you went there. If I weren't here keeping an eye on the planes, I would have gone over there already..."

The kid chattered on and on, like a chatterbox, his words filled with longing for battle, showing no concern whatsoever about kicking the bucket.

Li Nuo boarded the frigate, asked the green-skinned captain for a private room, and then "logged off".

Three days flew by at work.

That night, Lino possessed the witch priest boy Sak and created the Black Knight on the planet Paru.

A few lines of system text popped up, forcing him to put down his work.

[Archived image: "Poison Nail" Axelsen.]

[Archived Briefing:]

[Axon's green-skinned frigate is about to leave the warp and return to the real universe. The battle on Yarasos is extremely intense. Please pay close attention to this simulated character's movements to avoid accidental death.]

Li Nuo handed over the task of creating the Black Knight to Sack, took out the Magic Spore, ate it, and loaded the save file.

Consciousness left Sack's body and traveled rapidly through the sea of ​​stars, where a planet engulfed in war came into view.

Fireworks exploded one after another in the near-ground orbit, dazzling yet deadly.

Fragments rained down on the ground, igniting from atmospheric friction and creating a spectacular shower of fire.

Three enormous cannon shells whizzed past, hurtling toward the green-skinned frigate that had just left the warp.

Li Nuo's consciousness followed the cannonball to the ship and entered Axon's body.

The shells whizzed past the portholes, and the frigate made emergency maneuvers, narrowly avoiding them.

Li Nuo possessed Axon, and was immediately terrified by the scene before him.

"Holy crap, I almost got eliminated right after landing! Is the artillery fire this intense around here?!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Crack! Crack!"

Two human empire sword-class frigates circled and flew, their guard cannons unleashing a torrent of firepower that crackled and popped against the green-skinned frigates.

The green-skinned captain's booming voice came from the loudspeaker:

"Guys! Those shrimps are firing too hard! Our boats won't hold out much longer! Let's charge! Ram them to death!!! WAAAAAGH!!!"

“WAAAAAGH!!!”

The green-skinned old man was fearless and listened to a chorus of "Waagh!"

The green-skinned frigate suddenly accelerated, its engines and propulsion systems overloaded, causing the ship to vibrate violently as it crashed straight into the nearest shrimp-sized cruiser.

Seeing that he was about to have close contact with the cruiser, Li Nuo quickly activated his bacterial ability - Subspace Walking.

Boom!

Boom boom boom————

The green-skinned frigate crashed into the cruiser's void shield, causing the shield to overload and malfunction, resulting in a passionate head-on collision between the two ships.

Li Nuo detached himself from the ship in time and hovered on the near-ground track, where a gray and white battle scene unfolded before him.

Countless ships, shuttles, and fighter jets gathered here, and both sides replenished their forces as if they were risking their lives, with fireworks exploding at any time.

This terrifying scene was only a small part of this world. Further away on the horizon, dozens of massive ships gathered together, spraying barrages of bullets and unleashing beams of light. Their enormous void shields flickered constantly, and the aftershocks of the battle alone could crush any warships that dared to approach.

Li Nuo unleashed a series of appraisal spells in search of Ulger's whereabouts.

Soon, he found it.

That ellipsoidal, green-skinned battleship was the ship where Ulak Ulger was stationed:

"Wolf Blade"!
The ship is extremely large, estimated to be twice the size of the Queen Glory-class battleship.

Around it, three Imperial battleships were engaged in close combat, occasionally launching boarding craft, presumably Deathguard Space Marine companies conducting boarding maneuvers.

Speaking of Death Guard, Li Nuo had some thoughts in his mind and felt an itch to play.

It is said that the genetic seeds produced by the Stinky Cans are the most stable in the world. Even in the 40k era, the genetic seeds produced by the Death Guard had to undergo several corruption processes before they could be used to create Chaos Space Marines.

If corruption is not carried out first, the Space Marines cultivated from the Geneseed will be the Death Guards of the 30k era.

This clearly demonstrates just how high the genetic stability of these stinky canned goods is.

"With so many Death Guards that haven't yet rotted, this is a great opportunity to obtain gene seeds. The genetic purity of the Sealing Yeast extracted from them should be higher than that of the Dark Angels..."

Li Nuo had to admit that he was tempted.

The Legion's apothecaries were keeping a close eye on the gene seed, and Urg was also in the midst of a fierce battle, so it was inconvenient for them to be disturbed.

After considering both sides, Li Nuo felt that reporting the orcs' defection to Ulger could be postponed until the fighting subsided a bit.

"So here's the problem: how do I get there???"

Li Nuo was on the surface of subspace, with no boat to sit on.

He stared blankly at the green-skinned battleship in the distance.

"Am I supposed to run there on foot? Isn't that a bit ridiculous?"

...

...

Meanwhile, inside the Opalon-class battleship of the 131st Death Guard Company. (Note 1)

This is a Terran company, born from the Albian tribe, whose company number was very high before the Primarch Mortarion's return.

After Mortarian's return, he carried out sweeping reforms on the Fourteenth Legion, formerly known as the "Twilight Raiders".

He abolished the battle groups and instead used "large companies" to form his legions. (Note 2)

To date, Deathguard is the only legion composed of seven Dalian teams.

Mortarion's approach to the Terran members of the Legion was to divide, win over, and integrate them.

Those Terrans who wish to settle in Barbaross join large companies, while those who do not are dispersed into ordinary companies and carry out combat missions independently.

The Death Guard 131st Company is such a veteran unit composed of Terran people.

They acknowledge the Primarch's status and are willing to follow his combat orders, but unfortunately, the Twilight Raiders and Barbaros's cultural ideals are far removed.

The veterans of the Deathguard 131 had served the Emperor for over a century before Mortarion's return.

Their habits and beliefs are difficult to reconcile with those of the Mortarians.

To avoid division, they separated from the large companies, secretly calling themselves "the Unbreakables," and worked hard to maintain harmony within the legion.

Now, this group of brave and skilled veterans, proficient in vanguard assaults, is facing the most troublesome problem in history.

"I have to admit that I underestimated the tenacity and resilience of these orcs. Especially those orcs that are over five meters tall, their strength is beyond imagination. I even suspect that they are fighting machines secretly developed by the orcs using witchcraft."

Aliwen's brows furrowed, his gray power armor and blood-red right arm armor appearing even more somber.

As the company commander of the 131st Company, he assigned no fewer than ten boarding squads to carry out shipboard operations, but the results were minimal and the losses were heavy.

This was all due to a group of extremely burly orcs.

They are covered from head to toe in hard ceramic steel plates, and at first glance they look a bit like fearless mechs. But upon closer inspection, you will find that what is wrapped inside the ceramic steel plates is not the head of a connecting pipe, but a green body that is incredibly strong.

A five-meter-tall orc, with armor five meters tall and a reach far exceeding five meters, coupled with incredibly powerful multi-barreled molten steel guns, missile launchers, and crusher cannons, is simply unstoppable, killing any greenskin in its path.

Even more surprisingly, there is more than one such entity.

The boarding squads launched surprise attacks from different directions, but each time they entered the green-skinned battleship, they were met with five-meter-tall orcs.

So far, as many as ten five-meter-tall orcs have appeared on site, and who knows how many more such beings are deep within the green-skinned battleship.

For Alvin, the current situation was like opening a blind box. Continuing to send out boarding squads would involve huge potential risks, but retreating was not the style of the "Twilight Raiders".

At this critical juncture, the No. 5 boarding squad brought good news.

They cleverly used environmental factors to blow up the secondary keel of the green-skinned battleship, using the heavy steel beams to crush the giant orc.

With the giant orc unable to move, the No. 5 boarding squad seized the opportunity to unleash a barrage of firepower, finally managing to shove a plasma fireball into its skull.

"Pfft!"

With a deafening roar as flesh and blood splattered, the giant orc's head was burned off by the plasma fireball, killing it instantly. However, the cost was heavy casualties for the boarding squad.

The squad leader and assault soldier were killed in action, and the remaining members suffered various injuries, greatly reducing the overall combat effectiveness of the team.

Pharmacists are in a relatively better situation.

While treating the wounded, he gave a concise and efficient report on the situation at the front:
"Three dead, four wounded, ammunition running low, my injection unit damaged, rescue efforts are fraught with difficulties. Fortunately, the technical sergeant is still alive, and we can carry out emergency repairs. In short, I need support, Company Commander Alivin."

"I've received your request, and the support team is on its way." Alivin answered the communicator, his voice low and somber.
"Wyler, I hereby appoint you as the acting captain of Boarding Squad 5, authorized until the end of this campaign. I need you to bring back the squad members and the gene storage glands; there is no room for error."

“Yes, sir. Company Commander Alivin, those who do not break will never perish.” The pharmacist named Wheeler freed his right hand, pounded his chest, and prepared to collect the gene storage gland.

He crouched down beside the assault soldier's body, aimed the extractor at the terracotta breastplate, and pulled the trigger.

"Sizzle s ...————"

The drill bit broke through the breastplate and black carapace, and tweezers were inserted deep into the assault soldier's chest to extract the gene storage gland.

Behind and to the side of Wheeler, the corpse of the boarding squad leader trembled slightly.

Kewell didn't pay any attention, and the three guards, who were focused on the surrounding corridors, also failed to notice anything unusual about their captain's body.

Just then, hundreds of Punk Boys came running from a distance, shouting and launching an attack on the Space Marines.

The pharmacist had no choice but to abandon collecting gene storage glands and join the battle.

No one noticed that the captain's body shook again and again, the shaking going further and further away, as if a group of ants were carrying it as they crawled beneath it.

A few minutes later, the orcs were repelled, and reinforcements arrived.

The pharmacist turned around with the extractor, his eyes involuntarily widening in surprise:

"Oh! Damn it! Where did the captain's body go?! Didn't I put it in the corner? How did it disappear?!"
