Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 152 The Famous Unlucky Guy

There are indeed quite a few prohibited items on the Gabbro.

For example, those ancient technological relics bought from the black market, although their origins are basically unknown, Mai Mai and Mu Se both know that the value of these things is far beyond their imagination.

However, Sage Serea did not continue to ask questions, but turned back to his cabin, seemingly not interested in these things.

"Don't worry about it. Let's deal with the bodies of these Eldar pirates first." Mai Mai waved his hand, signaling the crew to start cleaning up the battlefield.

Although the equipment of these Eldar pirates is not very sophisticated, their weapons and armor can still be sold at a good price. After all, Eldar weapons are in high demand on the black market, and soul stones are also scarce.

Dusk nodded and then directed the crew to start moving the bodies and spoils.

While he was busy, he whispered to Mai Mai, "Dad Sai's eyes were a little strange just now. Do you think she discovered something?"

Mai Mai shrugged, looking somewhat helpless as he said, "Who knows? They are the sages of the Forge World of Gria. We can't guess what's in their heads.

But as long as she doesn't tell anyone, we have nothing to worry about."

Dusk nodded, but he still felt a little uneasy. He felt that there was something hidden in the eyes of the Sage of Serea, and perhaps he had noticed something unusual on their ship.

However, now is not the time to dwell on these things, they have more important things to do.

"By the way, Maimai, where are we going next?" Dusk asked while directing the crew to clean up the battlefield.

Mai Mai looked at the star map, pondered for a moment, and then said, "We have to get back to Rostov as soon as possible. The General and Sai Die are probably getting a little impatient. This is a big deal.

Furthermore, the people we hired from Griffin IV must be sent back immediately."

They had already been to Griffin IV, and although Christen was very dissatisfied with their practice of hiring low-level priests from Griffin IV, she did not say much about the comparison.

However, Christensen clearly expressed his dissatisfaction in his attitude.

Dusk nodded and then said, "Then let's get going quickly and don't get into any more trouble."

Mai Mai smiled and patted Mu Se’s shoulder: “Don’t worry, we have always had good luck.

Besides, with Sai Dad here, even if we really run into any trouble, she can help us solve it."

Dusk also smiled, but he was still a little uneasy. He had a feeling that this journey would not be so smooth.

At the same time, on the planet Rostov, the conversation between Chen Xi and Pavel was coming to an end.

"Then it's settled." Pavel smiled and extended his hand, shaking hands with Chen Xi. "I will report our cooperation plan to the Star Region Ecclesiarchy Headquarters as soon as possible. I believe they will be very supportive."

Chen Xi nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you for your help, Deacon Pavel.

I believe that our cooperation will bring more prosperity to the empire."

Pavel nodded and then stood up to say goodbye.

Chen Xi sent him to the door, watched him leave, and then turned back to his office.

"The State Church can organize three pilgrim pioneer groups to conduct preliminary development of habitable planets in the three surrounding star systems. Once the orbital ring is completed, further development can begin. Add to that the population the State Church will send in later..." Chen Xi scribbled on his datapad, calculating the resources and population required to develop the new planets. However, after careful calculation, he realized that even with the State Church's support, developing the entire sub-sector in a short period of time would still be a daunting task.

"So in the end, Maimai still needs to buy people?" Chen Xi was a little reluctant. Although human trafficking was legal in the empire, he still didn't want to get involved.

However, Chen Xi did not have a serious moral obsession. After confirming that there was indeed a need to do so, he let go of his fearless reserve.

"Population, skilled workers, mechanical priests...ah! I really want to find a planet and rob it right away!" Chen Xi became more and more annoyed as he calculated, and he had an urge to just throw the jar into the air.

But after venting his emotions, he still seriously planned the development of the sub-star region. At the same time, he was also thinking about when the technical priests hired by Maimai and Gria's technical team would arrive.

He knew that the future of Rostov would depend on the efficiency of these technical teams.

As long as the orbital ring can be successfully built, Rostov will become the most important transportation hub in the sub-sector. By then, Rostov will occupy a pivotal position in both trade and military.

"May the Emperor bless you." For the future of Rostov, Chen Xi couldn't help but close his eyes and pray to the old man on the throne.

And somewhere in the galaxy, the Gabbro is once again rising from the warp.

On their way to Rostov, Maimai and Dusk's ship encountered another accident, this time they were attacked by a Chaos warband.

Although they successfully repelled the attacks of the Chaos War Gang with the help of the Sage of Serea, it was obvious that such frequent attacks were too much for everyone to bear.

After the battle, Mai Mai and Dusk discussed their next plan in the cabin.

"We can't go on like this," Dusk said, frowning. "These attacks are too frequent. If we keep going like this, our ship will be destroyed before we even get back to Rostov."

Mai Mai nodded: "I think something is wrong too! Perhaps we should ask the General Manager or Sai Dad, they might know something."

"By the way, could it be that... that attracted them? They've always been unlucky." Dusk whispered to Mai Mai for confirmation, but he deliberately lowered his voice when mentioning 'that', as if he didn't want others to know what was on the ship.

However, Mai Mai looked a little uneasy. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "That shouldn't be the case, right?"

"They are officially certified unlucky old guys. It's no wonder they bring bad luck, right?" Dusk obviously insisted on his guess.

Mai Mai hesitated for a while, and then said after thinking for a while: "If it is that... then we can't throw them down now!

These unlucky guys are so miserable, they should make some money if they can!

We might feel a little bad, but if we throw them down there, they won’t have any chance of survival.”

Mai Mai still didn't want to abandon those poor unfortunate people. After all, anyone who heard their story would be willing to give them some help and sympathy.

"Okay, we'll gain experience and points by killing monsters this way anyway. At the current growth rate, if we kill all the monsters, we might be able to reach level three by the time we reach Rostov." Dusk didn't care. Although he felt annoyed by the frequent attacks, he just felt uncomfortable. He wouldn't abandon those unlucky guys just to save himself trouble.

"But let's go back and look through the exchange list to see if there's anything that can exorcise evil spirits! Although we have to save those unlucky guys, the frequency of the attacks is really too high." Mai Mai said with a sigh.

"Okay, I'll pay for the redemption points. Thanks to them, we've gained a lot along the way." Dusk still has great enthusiasm for helping those unlucky people.
