My Desperate Journey in 40k

Colonel Karim Gad finally recovered from his shock. He looked at Wang Ming with disbelief in his eyes.

"That is the truth, Colonel Karim Gad, and you must accept it."

Wang Ming spread his hands and said helplessly to Colonel Karim Gad that this loyal federal soldier still could not accept such a dark future for mankind.

Colonel Karim Gad finally recovered. He looked at Wang Ming for a long time, as if he wanted to cut something out of Wang Ming's face.

"In your time, the galaxy was filled with flames of war, and humanity lived on the brink of destruction. Children, as a soldier of the Federation, I'm sorry that we can't prevent this future for humanity. I'm sorry..."

After a long time, Colonel Karim Gad said to Wang Ming dejectedly that he kept apologizing to Wang Ming. No, rather than apologizing to Wang Ming, he was apologizing to future humans. As a federal soldier, he had no way to prevent this dark future.

"Colonel Karim Gad, this is not your fault."

Wang Ming listened to Colonel Karim Gad's apologies and sighed deeply. This was a soldier in the era of the Human Federation, whose responsibility was to protect humanity and the Federation.

"Colonel Radulovich, how long will the subspace instability last?"

Wang Ming looked at Colonel Karim Gad, thought for a while, then looked at Colonel Radulovich beside him and asked him how long it would take them to return to the subspace.

"Captain Wang Ming, according to my calculations, we can probably stay in this era for another hour, and then we will re-enter the subspace. I don't recommend you do this. Our current state is very unstable. If we rashly leave the Mandeville point and enter the galaxy, it may have unimaginable effects on the physical universe."

Colonel Radulovich heard Wang Ming's question and knew what Wang Ming was thinking.

"Phew, it's too short..."

After hearing the stay time calculated by Colonel Radulovich, Wang Ming gave up the fantastic idea in his mind. He originally wanted to support the federal forces, but the time was too short, and because of their unstable state, they were unable to enter the interior of the galaxy.

"Children, you also have your own mission, right? In a future where there is only war and death."

At this moment, Colonel Karim Gad suddenly asked Wang Ming.

"Yes, Colonel Karim Gad, we have our mission."

Wang Ming replied to Colonel Karim Gad that the federal army of this era has its own mission, and they have their own mission more than ten thousand years later. Although people and countries have changed, the mission of protecting humanity has never changed over the years.

"Well, children, I hope you can complete your mission according to your beliefs. May your God bless you. I cannot change the future, but I can protect the present, my defense zone, and my federation."

After Colonel Karim Gad said these words to Wang Ming, he straightened his body and saluted Wang Ming with a federal military salute. Wang Ming also saluted him back. Although the scene of a man in a futuristic military uniform saluting a giant in medieval armor was very strange, the scene was still full of solemnity.

"I will also fight for humanity. Although we are not from the same era, our goals are no different."

Wang Ming said to Colonel Karim Gad, and after hearing what Wang Ming said, Colonel Karim Gad smiled. Although the future of mankind is full of darkness and despair, mankind still exists. Even if future mankind lives in despair, they have never given up struggling. Human beings will struggle towards this desperate galaxy, and even if it takes tens of thousands of years, mankind will never be destroyed.

The Federation fleet left to perform their duties, and Wang Ming's fleet returned to the Warp more than an hour later, as if they had never been there. Everything returned to its original state. The Federation soldiers fought with the rebel AI, and after the Empire's fleet returned to the Warp, it was still on its way to Ultramar. Not many people knew about the contact between humans of the two eras this time. Only the cold sun in the Warp silently watched all this.

249. Chapter 246 Arrival at Macragge

249.

Ever since that experience of returning to the Federation era, Wang Ming has been thinking over and over again why this situation occurred. Was it a conspiracy of the gods of the subspace, or a deep meaning of the emperor, or perhaps it was just an ordinary subspace voyage.

"My Lord, the navigator predicts that we will reach Macragge in about a day."

Just as Wang Ming was sitting in the office, constantly thinking about that strange experience, Jose suddenly walked into the office, handed a document to Wang Ming, and also told Wang Ming the arrival time predicted by the navigator.

"Okay, I understand. Jose, go and ask the time travelers to prepare the medical equipment and the things of the state religion. They will be very useful when the time comes."

After hearing Jose's voice, Wang Ming stopped his endless thinking. He really couldn't figure out why that situation happened, so he simply stopped thinking about it and focused on the things at hand.

After receiving Wang Ming's order, Jose did not rush to leave. He still had something to report to Wang Ming, which was about the message Guilliman sent to Wang Ming.

"Also, sir, this is a star message from the Lord Regent."

Jose took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Wang Ming. On the parchment was the star message from Guilliman to Wang Ming. The Chief Astropath only told Jose that this was the star message from the Regent to the Protector of the Kingdom, without saying much about the specific content.

"The star message that Guilliman sent me? It seems that he received the star message I sent him before."

Wang Ming took the parchment and opened it. When Jose saw Wang Ming opening the parchment, he subconsciously wanted to walk out of the office. As a mortal, he should not know what happened between the Primarchs.

"It doesn't matter."

Wang Ming noticed Jose who wanted to leave the office, and raised his hand to signal him not to go out. When Wang Ming just opened the parchment, he had already finished reading the contents on it. The speed of information processing ability of the Primitive's brain is unimaginable for mortals.

"Guilliman and Fulgrim are in Macragge. Once I arrive in Macragge, we will go to Parmenio together to deal with the upcoming war."

Wang Ming picked out the key points from a pile of cumbersome High Gothic. Guilliman and Fulgrim were on Macragge. They were waiting for him. After he arrived at Macragge, he could integrate all the fleets together and head to Parmenio. The think tank of the Ultramarines had predicted that war would soon break out in Parmenio, and the servants of the Lord of Plague were eyeing this human world covetously.

"The safest way is to fight a prepared battle..."

Wang Ming placed the parchment in his hand on the table and stroked the surface of the parchment with his hand. Wang Ming thought of this sentence in his heart. Guilliman probably thought so too. Everything was prepared in Macragge, including the fleet, personnel, weapons, and equipment.

Thinking of this, Wang Ming stood up from his chair and took Jose to the warehouse of the "Sun Fortress". He needed to prepare some things for the upcoming war.

The Indomitable Crusade went more smoothly than in the original timeline. The industrial world cluster established by Wang Ming played the role it should have in the plan. A large number of weapons and equipment completely replaced the original Star Army. The distribution of various new equipment also significantly improved the combat effectiveness of the Star Army.

Medical robots were equipped on a large scale in the Indomitable Crusade, which not only greatly reduced the casualties of the mortal troops, but also increased the survival rate of the Space Marines participating in the Indomitable Crusade several times. After all, those Space Marines who prepared medical robots were equivalent to having a pharmacist by their side. As long as they were not killed directly on the battlefield and had only a moment to catch their breath, these small automated machines would do their best to provide medical treatment to their users. Although they could not recover in an instant, they could still save lives.

There are also force feedback power armor and new laser rifles, as well as various new plasmas and new thermal melts, all of which give the big heads the confidence to fight the Chaos Astartes.

The Indomitable Expeditionary Force and the armies of some worlds are the first beneficiaries of the industrial world group, but definitely not the last. In Wang Ming's plan, Wang Ming wants to re-equip all the mortal troops in the entire empire in this way, but this is also a long and arduous task.

"he came…"

On a land full of filth and corruption, an extremely bloated and disgusting monster was speaking to a smelly giant with wings on its back. Its words seemed to be full of endless filth, and every time it spoke, the surrounding space became more disgusting and corrupt.

Two monsters and a group of Death Guards stood on the ground. This place had been completely eroded by the power of the Lord of Plague. All kinds of twisted flesh and blood, as well as all kinds of strange flying insects were wandering happily on the ground and in the air. The scene of all things thriving and flourishing was enough to disgust a normal human being to death.

"Who? Roboute or the fake Fulgrim?"

When the giant heard the monster's words, he spread his wings. His wings looked like the rotten wings of some insect, with a lot of filthy things attached to them. After the giant spread his wings, those filthy things fell to the ground and turned into twisted indescribable creatures.

"Wang Ming..."

The monster slowly uttered two words, which were two syllables and a pronunciation that was only used in the ancient Terra civilization.

The giant paused in spreading its wings as the monster said the name. Its body even began to tremble slightly. Its body, which had long been unable to feel pain, seemed to feel the pain it had felt on Gobe at that time, and its face began to hurt again.

"It doesn't matter. My plan is perfect. My brothers are all included in my plan. I will sacrifice them to the Lord of Plague."

The giant quickly adjusted his mentality. The previous incident with Gobe even left him with some psychological trauma, but he still remained calm in front of his offspring.

"hope so…"

The monster spoke, and its voice sounded like a person who had been stuck with phlegm for hundreds of years, biting his tongue and speaking, making people feel a strange sense of nausea.

"Don't question me..."

The giant clenched the newly made sickle full of corruption and viruses, suppressed his arms that were trembling due to psychological trauma, and said to the monster.

It believed in its plan very much. It thought that what happened on Gobe before was entirely due to its failure to plan well. If it had planned well, perhaps it could have killed the brother who was possessed by its father when it was in the Gobe world.

This time its plan has been arranged, and it is very confident that it can avenge its previous defeat.

"Come, my brother, join the merciful Father..."

The giant stretched out a hand and grabbed the sky, talking to himself. The bloated and disgusting monster beside him looked at him in silence, wondering what he was thinking.

After a day of sailing in the Warp, the fleet finally arrived at Macragge. Fortunately, no problems occurred this time. The fleet sailed out of the Warp very smoothly, and then started the sublight speed engine and flew towards Macragge.

"Revisiting the old place."

The travelers from the first and second groups leaned on the observation windows of the ship. They looked at the planets outside the windows and were filled with emotion.

"Yes, I am revisiting the old place."

Wang Ming stood behind the time travelers and felt a little emotional. It had been so long in the blink of an eye and he was back to Macragge again.

The fleet slowly anchored above Macragge, and all the traversers went to the starport, ready to go to the ground to live. The long warp voyage made them almost forget what it was like to walk on the planet.

"My brother, you are finally here, you..., your troops..."

Guilliman and Fulgrim had known about Wang Ming's arrival long ago. Guilliman had even prepared a guard of honor to welcome Wang Ming. There were also many civilians watching around. Some of them were holding the flags of the Ultramarines, some were holding the improvised flags of the 21st Legion, and some were holding the flags of the Sons of the Phoenix. They waved their flags and arms excitedly, looking forward to the reunion of the God-Emperor's descendants in Macragge.

Guilliman felt the same as those civilians, looking forward to meeting his brother, but when he saw those time travelers with warehouses full of goods, he was stunned for a moment.

This is too many, and it seems that they are all Primaris Astartes. How did Wang Ming get these Astartes? Guilliman remembered that when he separated from Terra, Wang Ming only had 6,000 Primaris Astartes. What is the situation now? Guilliman seemed to see what the Legion looked like in the past.

"Thirteenth brother, Third brother, long time no see."

Wang Ming brought his honor guard and walked up to Guilliman and Fulgrim. Wang Ming gave each of them a big hug, as if they were really brothers meeting each other after a long time.

When Wang Ming hugged his two brothers, the sound of armor colliding came one after another, but no one cared about it. The cheers of civilians and the music of the guard of honor drowned out the sounds.

"Hahaha, Wang Ming, my dear brother, you must tell me about the equipment from the Indomitable Expedition and your brave descendants. It's been such a long time since we last met, I really want to know about you."

Guilliman looked at Wang Ming in front of him and said to him with a smile, that on the surface the Lord of the Ultramarines was very satisfied with his brother, but in fact all the Astartes present knew that Guilliman must be asking Wang Ming about those time travelers.

"Of course, Thirteenth Brother, I will. Let's go. We should find a good place to talk and have a good chat. It's been such a long time since we last met."

Wang Ming also smiled and replied to Guilliman. He knew what Guilliman was thinking. The Holy Scriptures were dismantling the Legion. How could the time travelers be dismantled? Besides, my dear Roboute, have you ever followed what you wrote?

"The atmosphere between these two seems off. What's going on? Did they have an argument during the Star Message? I have to find a way to calm them down."

Fulgrim looked at the two guys who were smiling but not really smiling, and thought to himself in confusion, he had also read the previous star messages, and it seemed that these two people should not have any dispute, it was too strange.

Finally, the three Primarchs went to Hera Castle amid the cheers and praises of the people of the Empire to discuss the "Imperial Affairs" together.

In Guilliman's office, there were three chairs custom-made for the Primarchs. The three Primarchs were sitting together, talking about something with each other.

"My brother, shouldn't you explain why your troops are still at the size of a legion?"

Guilliman looked at Wang Ming and asked him, Wang Ming's troops were obviously of legion size. The previous 6,000 people had now directly increased to 16,000 people. Wang Ming was obviously expanding the legion.

"My brother, the 21st Legion has never signed the Codex Astartes. Your Codex has no binding force on me. Moreover, you know that the current empire needs a unified and powerful military organization."

Wang Ming looked at Guilliman and answered him as if nothing had happened, saying that the 21st Legion had never signed the Codex Astartes, the Codex could not bind the 21st Legion, and it was not certain that Guilliman had actually abided by the Codex.

Most of the Ultramarines' separated sub-groups have their home planets in the Five Hundred Worlds, and those sub-groups have strong ties with their parent groups. If anything happens in the Five Hundred Worlds, all the sub-groups will respond. Some other legions may have been split up, but for the Ultramarines, it may be an expansion in some sense.

"Uh..., you're right."

Guilliman was silent for a moment, then replied to Wang Ming. He thought what Wang Ming said was correct, and for a moment Guilliman had nothing to refute Wang Ming.

The 21st Legion did not sign the Holy Code. As the saying goes, a piece of paper that has not been signed is like shit in the toilet. The 21st Legion really does not have to abide by the Holy Code.

But it is precisely because of this that Guilliman is worried about Wang Ming. The 21st Legion's manpower and the various weapons they are equipped with are top-notch. If Wang Ming wants to launch a rebellion like Horus, the current organizational efficiency and actual capabilities of the Empire will be completely unable to stop him.

"Alas... Roboute, my brother, I know what you are worried about. I will make it clear that the 21st Legion will always be loyal and there is no possibility of any rebellion. After all, I am directly under the command of my father."

Wang Ming stared at Guilliman and finally told him what he was most worried about. He naturally knew what Guilliman was thinking. Wang Ming did not want to indulge in various secrets and suspicions with his brother every day. The Human Empire is in this state now, and there are still internal suspicions every day. He obeys the Emperor directly, and Guilliman's suspicion of his loyalty is completely unnecessary.

"My brother, I never doubted your loyalty."

When Guilliman heard Wang Ming's direct and pointed words, he felt a little embarrassed. He really thought of his brother in the worst way.
