Warhammer 40 Spring: Loyalty of the Multiverse

Chapter 259 Determining the Final Mission

"What's the point of us helping Dr. Carrie with all this stuff?" Jeff still didn't quite understand. Although Carrie was in charge of research and medical care, she had actually reached an agreement with them to bring back some of the Devouring Beast bones and some dead spines that they had photographed in their videos and pictures last time.

And if conditions permit, they should also disassemble the damaged panels for analysis of the remaining components from the bullet holes.

As for the benefits given...

To be honest, Jeff still looked down on them a bit. Within the Hunters, their medical expertise alone had forged a bond of brotherhood through numerous life-or-death battles.

If one person is injured and needs healing but not enough contribution points, everyone can chip in, not to mention there's Captain Mark!
But if someone is injured and cannot be healed, no matter how many contribution points they have, the best they can do is keep them alive, leaving them living a miserable existence.

As for having Dr. Carrie develop some weapons to deal with the Devouring Beasts, or to enhance the equipment of the Gravity Body and the Wilderness Hunter!

Let's forget about it then. The lighthouse doesn't have many resources to begin with. Upgrading the equipment would require the city lord's approval, which would consume a significant amount of resources.

But how is this possible?
But who made Captain Mark agree?
The reason given left him speechless, and even a little moved: "If any of our brothers get injured during the gathering mission, we can spend fewer contribution points. Everyone will have an easier time! Besides, it's just bringing back things that are already dead, not the kind of mission that requires bringing back items from a densely populated area!"

“Whether Dr. Carrie’s things are useful or not, they’re still in the hands of someone who can use them, right? What if they actually develop a way to deal with the Devouring Beasts or the Mana ecosystem? Maybe then we can really live on the ground like those new human forces!” Mark explained to Jeff, looking at the steel gate being pried open by the Dust People with crowbars.

Hearing this, Ran Bing, who was standing next to him, also said with a smile, "That's right! Life on the ground will definitely be better than on the lighthouse!"

Penny then joked, "Yeah, I heard that people in the old world formed families because they fell in love with each other. Unlike in the Lighthouse, where two strangers replenish each other's population in the breeding hall!" As she said this, a hint of melancholy appeared on her face, which puzzled Ran Bing, who was standing next to her.

At this moment, Gavin suddenly interjected, "So, if we really end up on the ground, won't Jeff, this so-called breeding champion, be left a bachelor?"

"Hahahahaha!"

"Come on!" Donnie suddenly said at that moment, "If we really go down to the ground and are besieged by Devouring Beasts every few days, we'll be completely helpless!"

"I think it's more comfortable staying in the lighthouse. On the ground, it's all sand and dust, and you might even have a mouthful of sand while eating!" Donnie complained.

Everyone who heard this smiled helplessly, except for Penny, who looked at Donnie with affection.

But Donnie pressed his face tightly against the butt of his gun, peering intently through the scope of the weapon at every corner of the surrounding spaceship.

With a creak, the gate opened smoothly, and howling winds carrying cutting yellow sand rushed into the entire cabin.

"Quick! The dust people carrying supplies, get out! Squad four, guard the exit. The rest of you, follow me!" Mark gave the order to the group as he watched the howling winds approach. After watching the dust people leave, he led the group back into the deeper parts of the area.

bang bang bang-

Just then, a loud gunshot rang out from deep within the spaceship, and Mark and the others, who were still exploring, turned to look at the location of the gunshot.

But then came even more intense gunfire, along with a violent tremor!

"problem occurs!"

Dragonbone Village!

The two parties, having reached an agreement, have now begun a period of peaceful coexistence.

This includes resource exchange, intelligence sharing, and technology sharing between the two parties.

For example, the life iteration technology researched within Dragonbone Village, and the research on the spirit seeds within the Devouring Beasts.

They all amazed Tarachin and the priests!
As for the mountain where the Mana Giants were originally located, Tie Hui and the others did not venture deep inside. It was best to avoid directly exposing themselves to the Mana Giants if possible.

What if they have some means of attacking at the level of consciousness, and they use that against you? You might be able to defend against it, but the Emperor would be exposed, and then the entire high-dimensional civilization would have to go all out!

Haha!
However, just in case, they still placed thermal bombs at key points throughout the mountain, putting them in a state of dire need of resources once again.

As for the people of Dragon Bone Village who were forcibly taken into custody, they had no objections. Even Bai Yuekui didn't say much, only expressing his agreement.

And they are willing to follow instructions!

Dragonbone Village has now been captured. If a large number of people were to enter the mountains where the Mana people reside, their location would likely become one of the primary targets for attack by all the highest-dimensional creatures of the Mana ecosystem across the entire planet.

If all the Devouring Beasts were to cross thousands of miles to attack you, and even higher-dimensional creatures were to personally intervene, you would truly be unable to withstand it!
As for having already turned this world into a fixed target, at worst, we can send our own world's warships over for orbital bombardment.

The key issue now is that they are crossing a land-based area, and such a large warship is coming.

How to even get into the sky is a problem!
Moreover, opening a door just to transport some warships is really not cost-effective. After all, according to the time travel manual given by the Emperor...

If a world is transformed into a fixed world, then the portal to travel through it will also be fixed accordingly.

However, if one frequently opens portals to travel back and forth, the beings in the subspace can easily pinpoint the location of the portals.

The more skilled ones might even follow the trail of the portal to this world!

This is something we absolutely must guard against!
As for the cooperation of the Necromancers, they can use the Blackstone Obelisk technology, which suppresses the warp properties, to stabilize the barrier between the warp and the real universe around the portal.

But if we really did that, wouldn't it be like trying to hide something obvious?
As for placing the portal in the territory of the space undead, how do you deal with the exorcism zone created by the space undead activating the Black Stone Obelisk?
Moreover, such an important item was placed in the hands of the aliens, even if they were in deep cooperation.

This is completely unacceptable!
Therefore, at this stage, we can only rely on Tie Hui and his group's existing strength.

Tie Hui looked at the feedback screen of the life detectors that had covered the entire continent, which showed that a large number of Devouring Beasts were migrating to this area.

It was less of a migration and more of a military support operation. Scanning and tracking revealed that there were quite a few large Devouring Beasts among them, such as the Calyx Beast and the Megalodon.

It seems their presence has finally disturbed the ecosystem, but this was to be expected. After all, from the perspective of life source matter, there's only so much life source matter on Earth.

Now, their sudden arrival, and the physical condition of the Astartes' guards, who have undergone biochemical surgery and even partial warp modifications.

The life essence within its body is probably many times higher than that of ordinary people in this world, and even the quality is twice as high.

And there are so many now!
The ecosystem can't help but be tempted!
Fortunately, their exact location coordinates cannot be determined at present due to the current ecological conditions. Moreover, the merger with Longgu Village has brought them a working population of over 1000.

As for why the population is so large, it is of course because the great think tank director contributed his wisdom and worked with Bai Yuekui and others to protect it.

"We need to find a way to expand production!" Tie Hui merely glanced at the attack of the Devouring Beasts and then put the matter aside. He didn't think the Devouring Beasts were the biggest threat to them.

On the contrary, production scale and productivity are one of the biggest threats limiting their development.

Once resources are plentiful and aircraft capable of transporting large numbers of soldiers are available, the attack on the beacon will be within reach.

After taking control of the lighthouse, they installed their own anti-gravity technology, completely sealing off the Kloto system. They then replaced it with a system led by themselves, and completely transformed the entire lighthouse, expanding it into a space city, which was then launched into outer space and fixed in low Earth orbit.

At that time, they can either attack the ground and plunder resources, or retreat to collect necessary basic resources from Earth, Mars, or even asteroid belts.

As for whether the elites and politicians of those countries in the Old World who flew into space might have also brought the spores of the Mana ecosystem to the outer space base.
It doesn't matter to them!

Even if we get to an outer space base, what then? It's on a planet with almost no atmosphere.

The number of those political figures is limited. Even if your ecosystem tries to absorb more, how many can it absorb, and to what extent can it evolve?
Once we're in space, the sky's the limit, and the sea is wide enough for birds to fly freely. Without the constraints of subspace, AI can fully activate and build them from scratch in just one or two years, ready to launch precise orbital bombardments directly at you.

Not to mention the help from the Space Skeletons, the Ghost Worker Scarab is a self-producing nanomachine.

So there's absolutely no need to worry. In about another month or two, the flying vehicle will be fully manufactured.

As for the quality?
It's definitely much better than the planes of the green-skinned orcs...

Um... at least it's flying in the air, so it won't explode, right?
