Dedicate loyalty to the good empire

Chapter 338 Across the Scourge Zone

Chapter 338 Across the Scourge Zone
The feeling of safety that came from being back on a Lunar-class cruiser was always indescribable, even though Taylor had sailed on the massive battle barge and the battleship-sized Macragge's Glory.

But as an imperial officer, he has deep feelings for the Moon-class cruisers and Sword-class frigates that are commonly in service in the empire.

Although the Imperial Navy was generally a bit temperamental, Taylor's relationship with them was not as cold as that of other officers.

Probably because of his personality. After all, the conversations between the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Army can usually be summarized as follows.

"If your navy is gone, I won't be able to occupy the land."

"I can't walk without your army."

But Taylor didn't care about the so-called honor. He really liked those huge void battleships, and he always praised the Imperial Moon-class Cruisers and the Imperial Navy.

This is well deserved. After all, they all know how much sacrifice those brave people in the Gothic Sector have made in exchange for the survival of the Empire.

It turns out Taylor's personality always gets him better rooms, better supplies, and the chance to sample the private cellars of naval captains.

Those navy captains are no match for those poor Imperial infantrymen.

For them, the military pay from the empire was almost a drop in the bucket, and those captains were all descendants of aristocrats, whose ancestors had either made great contributions to the empire or were descendants of famous legends.

The Imperial Moon-class cruisers are the backbone of the Empire, and their captains are basically the most powerful people in the entire star region.

At this moment, Taylor was looking at the drunk old man in front of him, and talking obsessively to the runes given to him by the Fenris brothers.

"Hey, I rarely say that to the Imperial Guard..."

"But please, I'd give all my fortune for this!"

"Money, resources, anything, my friend..."

"This is so beautiful, a masterpiece of Fenris, a gift from the Son of Russ, and a symbol of the wolves' approval."

"The Emperor is above, the throne is above, the bones of sea beasts, the hands of priests, hammering, carving and writing."

Taylor rubbed his nose.

He was actually quite moved...

However, although this rune is valuable, the friendship of the wolf is worth a thousand gold. If this rune is sold, the captain may steal this favor in the future.

If his descendants had the opportunity to see those warriors, they could easily pass themselves off as descendants of a Friend of Russ, or even as recipients of gifts from a Champion of Fenris.

But what a horrible defilement that would be.

Taylor could only put away the rune and said.

"You've had too much to drink, Captain."

"I think the white planet of Fenris is too beautiful. It made you drunk and a little delirious."

The captain pulled down his captain's hat, sighed, and put down the rune that the wolf brother gave to Taylor.

"Yes, I'm drunk, my friend..."

"What I said today doesn't count. Even if I had the guts, I wouldn't be able to buy this thing."

"I really envy you."

"God, please take out a few bottles of rotten wine as compensation for listening to my nonsense."

Taylor said frankly. "Can I sell those things somewhere to pay for my troops' food?"

The captain said distressedly, "No, no! I've already changed my mind!"

Taylor smiled, picked up a bottle of bright red wine, and tasted it.

To be honest, he doesn't like it.

He is not used to eating wild boar.

Then Taylor felt the alcohol from the wine rising from his stomach, and with that warmth, he asked with a perky spirit.

"How long until we get to Aix, the hospital world."

The captain said. "That place is now called Plague World." "My friend, we are taking a shortcut, crossing the entire Chaos Control Zone and getting there directly."

He got up and complained, "But you know the first mate is always slow at the wheel, and I need to rest, and we're in the Scourge Zone, a place fought over by the gods..."

"My heart aches when I think of this. If the Regent hadn't asked me to help you, I would never have dared to come here in my entire life."

"Blind warp jumps allow us to evade enemy detection, which is one of the few good things."

The captain said, "That's too slow, and I've already dealt with three cases of demons invading the interior of a ship this month."

"First the Slaanesh Succubus, then the Khorne Bloodletter and the Tzeentch Horror."

"We need to speed up and make a warp jump."

"For example, let's find the nearest Mandeville Point. We'll go there, eliminate the local Chaos forces, replenish ammunition and food, fuel and clothing, and then make another long jump, and the divine troops will descend from the sky!"

The captain's judgment was correct, and Taylor had to nod.

It wasn't because he had the courage, but because he simply realized that instead of playing Population Elimination with the demons on the lower deck every day, it would be better to solve this matter once and for all.

Things would be much easier if they could just find a world with natives to help them defeat the Daemons or Chaos Marines, just like Taylor usually did.

To be honest, he is a bit path-dependent, but it is better than being helpless.

After all, if Guilliman loses, he will really have to consider whether Tzeentch or Slaanesh is a better next target.

Of course, he wanted neither!

After the captain picked up the tablet and gave orders, he said with a serious expression after a while.

"I found it, but that place is a little special."

"We are on the edge of the Ultima Thule. Apparently, this place has many unique things besides Fenris."

Taylor scratched his head. "What else can we do? The world of the Empire is always the same. It's either providing soldiers or supplies. It's always like this."

The captain said, "To be precise, this should be a world of manpower."

Taylor smiled. "That means they have reliable defenses and enough technology to supply us. That place probably hasn't fallen yet. As long as we reach a consensus with the locals, everything will be fine."

He was full of confidence. After all, what place could be worse than Fenris?
But the captain was not optimistic.

"You are familiar with this place. You have fought alongside soldiers who were born here."

Taylor said impatiently. "That's too much. I've even fought alongside the Cadians!"

"Let me guess. Is it a Ranger? Or a Venturian noble?"

The captain licked his lips. "It's Catachan."

Taylor was confused for a moment, then said.

"Friend, you know who is getting off the boat, right?"

The captain replied, "That's why I hesitated to tell you this."

He said, "We can continue blindly jumping. After all, I won't get off the boat."

"No sane person would."

Taylor touched the Kraken sword at his waist at this moment.

He said. "Did you know I'm half Catachan?"
