Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 3 Taking Office as Governor
For his first time traveling across time, Chen Xi carefully selected the chess pieces he was about to invest.

The first thing is naturally the chess piece for him to descend and possess. Due to the limitation of authority, Chen Xi cannot use his favorite Astartes and Guards, let alone his second favorite Necrons.

This undoubtedly narrows the range of chess pieces he can choose from.

After all, although he has chess pieces worth 20,000 points, 10,000 of them are Space Marines from different chapters, 5,000 points are Necrons, and the remaining 5,000 points are Astra Militarum, Battle Sisters, Custodes, Imperial Knights, Inquisition and Mechanicus.

When Chen Xi first started playing chess, he was a fan of painting chess pieces, so he was keen on buying different chess pieces.

At that time, he couldn't find anyone to play against, so he spent most of his time entertaining himself, and his main energy was spent on collecting various models and paint jobs.

Because of this, he still has the pawns of the Battle Sisters, the Inquisition, and the Astra Militarum available for selection.

Otherwise, if all he had were Astartes, he would have to find a way to borrow a batch of chess pieces from someone or buy new ones himself.

Because of the restrictions on authority and points, Chen Ran naturally couldn't invest too many chess pieces for the first time.

After thinking carefully, he chose the legendary Inquisitor Eisenhorn of the Inquisition as the chess piece he possessed, and equipped him with a team of Kashejin Commandos and a team of Battle Sisters of the Order of Battle.

(Eisenhorn)
(Kashezen Commando)
(Battle Sister Squad)
One thing that needs to be explained is that although Chen Xi can choose to invest chess pieces of certain famous figures, the chess pieces will not become them themselves, but will be similar to homologues with the same attributes.

For example, the Eisenhorn chess piece that Chen Xi invested will become an inquisitor of the Anti-Foreign Order after it is invested. Although it has the same attributes as Eisenhorn, such as psychic talent and experience and abilities as an inquisitor, there is nothing special about it.

The same is true for other famous people.

However, this has no effect on Chen Xi. As long as the chess pieces can play their role, he is not obsessed with making the old man's gold coins work for him.

As long as the counterfeit money can be spent, it can be used as money anyway!
After selecting the chess pieces, Chen Xi placed them onto a floating platform in the box according to the instructions of the servo skull.

Then these chess pieces were enveloped by a golden force. Chen Xi knew that this meant that these chess pieces could be put into that world.

And all he had to do to attach his consciousness to the chess pieces was touch one of them with his hand.

Chen Xi naturally did not hesitate and pointed his finger at Eisenhorn.

Followed by a moment of trance, he felt his perspective suddenly changed, as if he had become a chess piece.

Immediately afterwards, a layer of golden sand rose from the bottom of the box, constructing the appearance of a room in the box. The chess pieces were also covered by the golden sand and were transferred into the room.

"So I've made it through? I don't feel anything..." Chen Xi moved his body, feeling the various knowledge being instilled into his mind. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he did not really feel any real sense of time travel.

Apart from the fact that he was now wearing the uniform of an inquisitor, had a grenade launcher on his waist, and a psychic staff in his hand, there wasn't much change.

Of course, all this might require excluding the group of Kashejin and the group of combat nuns standing beside him. They were looking at Chen Xi quietly, seemingly waiting for his further instructions.

"They are no different from normal humans. You can give them instructions at will." The servo skull floating next to Chen Xi explained to him.

"I understand. Where am I now?" Chen Xi had already gotten into the role. He straightened his clothes and asked the servo skull and the people next to him about the situation.

"You are now on a Sword-class frigate of the Imperial Navy. You are arriving at your target planet on this ship, and the ship is about to land." The Servo Skull explained, and then projected information about the planet they were about to arrive at to Chen Xi: "The planet you are about to arrive at is called Rostov II. It is the only imperial colony world in a sub-sector under the Mariupol star sector and is also the capital of the sub-sector.

However, the Mariupol star zone is a new star zone that the Empire has recently developed. Therefore, the Imperial colony on Rostov II has only been established for less than 70 years, so all facilities and construction are almost in the initial stage.

The planet's current population is 12 billion, primarily composed of immigrants from the state religion and criminals transferred from the penal world.

The main political forces on the planet are retired Astra Militarum and the Ecclesiarchy. The planet itself was assigned to a group of retired Astra Militarum regiments.

The Ecclesiarchy began to spread its faith on this planet after the Ecclesiarchy immigrants arrived."

"That sounds good. An uncultivated planet, a new imperial colonial world. The Emperor is truly generous in his favor." Chen Xi had adjusted himself by now, making himself look more like an inquisitor, and even changed his wording.

"Character import has been completed, novice tasks activated"

"Novice Mission 1: Becoming Governor"

Mission: Complete the Governor's Inauguration Ceremony and become the Planetary Governor of this planet.

"Becoming a planetary governor? It doesn't look like it's going to be smooth sailing." Chen Xi narrowed his eyes, but then he looked at his two teams of attendants and gave them orders: "Check your equipment and prepare for battle! We may encounter various situations."

Kashejin and the battle nun immediately checked their weapons according to Chen Xi's orders, and then prepared for battle.

Although this may be unnecessary, the Warhammer world...a world where time travelers will cry like a fart spirit, and anything is possible.

In particular, the Empire's attitude towards the Planetary Governor Kudeta has always been to let him do whatever he wants as long as he can ensure the payment of tithes and there is no obvious corruption or betrayal of the Empire.

It would be very troublesome if someone disliked the new governor and thought "I can replace him".

Don't think it's impossible. For the Empire, the first thing a governor does is to quell a rebellion. This is something that a planetary governor must appreciate.

"It's a pity that we can't use the Astartes. Otherwise, with a team of Terminators at hand, we're not afraid of not being able to quell the rebellion of a planet?" Chen Xi sighed, but then cheered up, pushed the door open and walked out.

Behind him, the Battle Sisters and the Kashejin Commandos followed.
