My Desperate Journey in 40k

In the conference room of the Sun Fortress, Wang Ming was having a meeting with a group of captains. Wang Ming looked at the captains in front of him and asked them that Wang Ming and the time travelers were quite confused about the world of Catachan. The ecological environment of this world was simply a huge and outrageous joke, so outrageous that even a genetic Primarch like Wang Ming would not be able to survive on it for more than ten minutes.

How can I describe the outrageousness of this world? When other human colonies were colonizing planets, they at most fought with local aliens and natural creatures, but on Catachan, they fought with the big trees. The ecosystem of this world is extremely threatening. No matter what comes to Catachan, they will die here.

If Catachan is the standard of the death world, then the other death worlds are simply paradise worlds. At least the other death worlds do not have big trees that can hit people to death with their branches, no stones that can bite people, and no big toads that can explode with nuclear explosions.

"The mortal auxiliary army in this world is pretty good..."

All the team leaders were silent for a long time, and finally only Wang Xiaofa said something relatively good. The Catachan jungle warriors could be said to be one of the best mortal warriors in the galaxy. Their fighting ability was trained under the horrible ecological environment of their hometown. After all, in Catachan, children must learn to shoot before they can speak, otherwise they will not live to adulthood.

"Fine…"

Wang Ming looked at Wang Xiaofa. He couldn't think of any special products of Catachan that could be used. To be honest, there was no need to establish a garrison company in this world. Anyone who wanted to attack Catachan, this world of death, really felt that they had lived too long.

The fleet has arrived at Mandeville Point. With the sound of sacred chanting and the start of the warp engines, the fleet's external bulkheads are quickly closed, and they are about to head into the turbulent warp.

"Bullshit!"

A month after the fleet sailed into the subspace, in Rengar's dormitory, Rengar was playing mahjong with three old guys. Zhou Heng looked at the mahjong table in front of him with a confused look on his face. He really didn't understand how to play this ancient Chinese quintessence from the 2K era. He reluctantly took out a throne coin and put it on the table.

"Attention all crew members, the fleet is about to sail out of the subspace and return to the real universe."

At this moment, a broadcast announcing the fleet's arrival at its destination appeared. The fleet was about to reach its target location. The fleet sailed out of the warp and headed towards its final destination.

“A world full of life.”

Wang Ming looked at the emerald green world outside the window through the observation window. He knew how terrifying this emerald-like world was. All the creatures in it wanted to kill something.

"You guys go to the local gathering places first, I'll go check out those places myself."

Wang Ming thought for a moment, then said to Wang Xiaofa beside him that he was very curious about how strong the local ecology of Catachan was. Could it really make a Primarch die here? He wanted to try it himself.

The main purpose of this time is to recruit a group of mortal auxiliary troops, so Wang Xiaofa was directly allowed to lead the first group down. The world of Catachan does not have too many threats that need to be solved by the time travelers. After all, everything on it is dangerous.

"Well, there are still about five minutes left... Sigh... Is this world really that dangerous?"

In the airdrop cabin, Wang Ming looked at the planetary surface getting closer and closer, thinking about the danger index of Catachan. He knew how dangerous Catachan was, but he still wanted to give it a try. After all, this world was a major attraction in the Warhammer universe.

The cargo airdrop capsule did not slow down when it landed. Wang Ming directly started the landing thrusters at full power. The thrusters operated at full power, and the huge tail flame burned everything within a radius of 500 meters into ashes, which temporarily cleared a blank area for Wang Ming.

"This is Catachan... It's a beautiful world."

Wang Ming looked at the jungle in the distance and said with a smile, to be honest, when there is no danger, the jungle in Catachan is very beautiful. The green forest is full of vitality, and the sounds of various small animals or trees are rustling in the jungle.

"Lonely..."

Just as Wang Ming was admiring the jungle scenery, a quack sound suddenly appeared at his feet. After hearing the sound, Wang Ming was stunned. He slowly lowered his head and saw a small toad-like creature on the ash-filled ground, looking directly into Wang Ming's eyes.

Just as Wang Ming was staring at the toad, the toad was also staring at Wang Ming. The toad was singing a ballad called "Loneliness". It looked at Wang Ming and was suddenly frightened by Wang Ming. This was a fear that came from the biological instinct.

"Fuck..."

This was Wang Ming's last words before his death. The toad exploded, and its horrible poison corrupted the earth and also destroyed Wang Ming and the cargo airdrop cabin in front of it.

"What's the noise?"

Wang Xiaofa and the time travelers were talking with the Catachans in the distance, discussing the conscription ceremony. When they heard the explosions in the distance, they were all confused and had no idea what was happening.

"My Lords, this is nothing unusual. On Catachan, this type of explosion is very normal."

The Catachan who was talking to the travelers looked at the confused travelers, he gave the Sky Eagle Salute to the travelers, and then said calmly that as a Catachan, he knew what it was, it was the barking toad that self-exploded. In fact, the Catachans also found it very strange, no one or any creature should dare to mess with the Catachan giant toad, why did the toad self-explode for no reason?

"Oh my god... Is this Catachan...? What a great way to show your power..."

Wang Ming looked at the forest in front of him which turned into a flat land. The first time he set foot on the land of Catachan, he received the greatest welcome in the world, a Catachan giant toad that blew itself up because it was scared by his aura.

"call…"

Wang Ming took a deep breath, took out a set of regular clothes of the time travelers from the system, and then took out a personal terminal. After determining Wang Xiaofa's location, he headed towards the Catachan fortress where Wang Xiaofa was.

This journey was simply a march from hell. After Wang Ming entered the jungle, he was targeted by various local small animals and trees. Although he used his golden flame to burn all the big trees that dared to attack him, he still fought with a giant tree that was several dozen meters high for ten minutes. In the end, Wang Ming used his golden flame to burn the tree completely into ashes before ending the battle.

After dealing with the big tree, Wang Ming continued to move forward. The various poisonous plants and insects in the jungle could not harm Wang Ming at all. His whole body was covered with golden flames. These flames could effectively solve the dangers in the dark, but there was no way to avoid the dangers in the open. After Wang Ming walked into a forest, a group of huge bats attacked Wang Ming.

Wang Ming did not bring his own weapons this time. He did not want the big toad to liquefy his weapons. Although he did not know whether the Eternal Life, which was blessed by the Necromancer technology, would be liquefied, he still had to try to avoid this possibility.

Wang Ming, who had no weapons, tore the group of giant bats apart with his bare hands. His behavior attracted another creature, a Catachan demon. This huge Titan creature thought that Wang Ming was hunting in its territory, which was a provocation to its territory.

Wang Ming looked at the centipede-like Titan creature in front of him. He was completely confused. What had he done to offend anyone? Why did the whole world want to kill him? After he solved this one, another one came. He was speechless.

Wang Ming looked at the Catachan Demon, he took out a huge power sword from the system, and then started fighting with the Catachan Demon. Wang Ming had no shortage of Primarch-level weapons in his hands, but these weapons were not very convenient for Wang Ming to use, but they were enough for temporary use.

It took Wang Ming half an hour to finally kill the Catachan demon. After killing the Catachan demon, he took some trophies from this Titan creature. After getting these trophies, Wang Ming continued to move forward. He knew that this kind of creature had social habits, and he didn't want to fight with several other Catachan demons.

"The Catachan demon is indeed powerful. It is indeed a monster that can defeat an entire Imperial armored company."

Wang Ming looked at his bitten-off arm and felt his body gradually regaining strength. He sighed at the horror of the Catachan Demon. He did not kill the Catachan Demon without any injury when he fought with it. Although the speed of this Titan creature was very slow, its flexible tail needle still pierced Wang Ming, which paralyzed Wang Ming's body. The Catachan Demon also took this opportunity to bite off one of Wang Ming's arms.

Finally, after untold hardships, Wang Ming finally arrived at the Catachan fortress, and he finally reunited with Wang Xiaofa.

"Boss, what's the ecological environment like on Catachan?"

Wang Xiaofa looked at the disheveled Wang Ming and asked him with a gloating look. As he saw how disheveled Wang Ming was, he knew that even the original gene could not live intact in this world.

"Alas..., the ecological environment of this world is simply outrageous. As soon as I got off the airdrop cabin, a toad sent me to the emperor. Then I was chased and killed by various small animals in the jungle. It took a lot of effort to get here."

Wang Ming looked at Wang Xiaofa, who was gloating. While answering him, he wondered whether he should throw Wang Xiaofa into the jungle as well to let him experience the natural scenery of Catachan.

After Wang Ming arrived at the Catachan fortress, he had time to tidy himself up. After experiencing the natural scenery of Catachan, Wang Ming discussed the issue of conscription with the Catachan people. The 21st Legion needed the Catachan people to provide a group of mortal auxiliary troops, which was not a big problem for the Catachan people.

The issue of recruiting the mortal auxiliary army was quickly settled, and in the following month, Wang Ming also dispatched a large amount of supplies, medicines, food, and equipment that the Catachan people urgently needed. These things were very important in this world of death, especially food and medicines. After all, Catachan, a world with extremely beautiful natural scenery, could not grow crops at all.

Xu Zheng had experimented with this. The First Engineer Corps tried to grow grain. They directly vitrified an area with light spears, and then transplanted a batch of black soil. But even so, the rice they grew still fought with them.

You can imagine that they were about to harvest the first batch of rice that day, and then these rice grains suddenly walked out of the soil. Yes, they walked out. They walked with legs made of roots and appeared straight to the traversers. Then, in full view of everyone, they opened their countless mouths that were mutated from wheat ears and started to bite the traversers' power armor. The traversers were numb. They looked at the rice grains attacking them and felt unwell. When they used flamethrowers to deal with these rice grains, they were in a daze.

They analyzed the soil composition and brought some of the soil to the Sun Fortress for experiments. The experiments showed that this was the original problem of the world of Catachan, not a problem with the soil. The power of this world would affect the plants and creatures of the world of Catachan.

"Catachan...what a magical place."

Wang Ming stood on the fortress, looking at the jungle in the distance, and sighed again. The natural environment of this world was really outrageous. Wang Ming had seen too many strange things in this month. One morning, he went out and fought with a tree for a long time early in the morning.

As the Primarch, he couldn't help but sigh that Catachan was really not a place for people to live in. What were the people who colonized here thinking? This world didn't seem like an ideal living condition for humans at all.

In fact, what Wang Ming didn't know was that when human colonists first came to this world in the Federation era, they immediately decided to colonize this vibrant world. But when they actually set foot in this world, they completely regretted it. The natural environment of this world made them completely numb. But when they wanted to escape, they despairingly discovered that their resources were simply unable to reach the next world that could be colonized. So they just survived in this world.

This is also something that reflects the tenacity of the human race. At least the colonists have been cutting down trees here for thousands of years, and then successfully obtained their own ecological niche in this world. Although humans are not at the top like in other worlds, but at the bottom, this is very rare in Catachan. Catachan does not welcome alien creatures, and its ecosystem is like this. It is not easy for humans to gain a foothold in this world.

Chapter 386: The Fleet Returns to Terra

386.

There is nothing wrong with the statement that Catachan has beautiful scenery, but the beautiful scenery of this world is always trying to kill something. Even a stone is thinking about how to kill a creature. When Wang Xiaofa went out that day, he was almost killed by a stone. He was not wearing power armor at the time and was in a very bad state.

The stone suddenly bit Wang Xiaofa's head with such force that it almost killed him. Wang Xiaofa had to put a lot of effort into getting rid of the stone.

Because of this incident, the entire First Regiment dug up trees on the outskirts of the fortress for a month, using all kinds of armored firepower and other insane weapons. They spent a month using all kinds of weapons to clear out a ten-kilometer habitable area. However, this habitable area was not absolutely safe and required regular weeding, of course, using all kinds of energy weapons.

The natural environment of Catachan is so horrible that even after being plowed by various weapons, it is still full of vitality. The First Engineer Regiment has also built a number of fortresses in this ten-kilometer area. Taking into account the natural environment of Catachan, these fortresses all use refined gold as their foundations. This strength of material can withstand most plants from underground and can protect the foundation of the fortress very well. The fortress is also fully enclosed. In order to prevent some unexpected situations, Xu Zheng also added some interesting things to its exterior, that is, the promethium flamethrowers that cover the outer shell of the fortress. These things can turn those plants that dare to spread towards the fortress into ashes.

Human wisdom is powerful. Xu Zheng also installed some induction shock devices around the fortress. These things can effectively warn Catachan's strange little animals of attacking the fortress. Although they cannot stop them directly, they can give humans in the fortress more reaction time.

"The fort is already completed, why are you still so depressed?"

Wang Ming stood on the fortress, he looked at Xu Zheng who was a little depressed beside him, and asked him curiously. Wang Ming knew how difficult Xu Zheng's life was these days. They fought with big trees every day. During these few days, they were trained as an engineering corps into a combat unit. In order to protect a material warehouse, Xu Zheng even fought a Catachan demon alone. Although he died five times, he finally killed the Catachan demon with his life.

"Boss... this is fucking terrible. The ecology of this world is designed to kill other life forms. Even if the Necrons come here, they will die here."

Xu Zheng said to Wang Ming with a tired face that the natural environment of Catachan was almost driving him crazy. During the past month, the First Regiment had been fighting with trees every day. If they were not fighting with trees, they were fighting with the local animals of Catachan.

"Uh..., indeed."

Wang Ming looked at Xu Zheng and heard Xu Zheng's tired words. He originally wanted to say that the Necrons might be more decent, but considering those nuclear toads, what Xu Zheng said was still very right.

"Boss, what is our next opportunity? Which world should we continue to travel to?"

Xu Zheng looked at Wang Ming, who suddenly asked about their next destination.

"No, we need to go back to Terra. I need to see the Emperor."

Wang Ming looked at Xu Zheng. After hearing his question, he immediately answered him.

To be honest, Wang Ming needs the Emperor to provide him with a coordinate. He needs to find something that can determine the direction of the galaxy. Although the King of Figures has given him some information about the Black Stone, the King of Figures did not give him some decisive things, including the manufacture of large anti-subspace equipment such as the Black Stone Obelisk, and how to seal the Great Rift.

Caul wanted to use the technology of the Blackstone Obelisk to close the Great Rift one light year at a time, but Wang Ming thought this method was too slow. Considering the scale of the Great Rift that divides the entire galaxy, if he really did this, it would probably be impossible to completely close the Great Rift even until the end of time. Although this method is the only stable solution now, Wang Ming still wants to find some other ways. At least Caul cannot do these things alone. Human beings are a whole, and Wang Ming still knows the principle of saturation and comprehensive rescue.

"Boss, can't the Emperor communicate with you directly? Why do we have to go back to Terra?"

When Xu Zheng heard that the next step of the fleet was Terra, he didn't understand why Wang Ming wanted to go back to Terra. Obviously, the Emperor could contact Wang Ming directly. Why not just ask directly? Why bother to go back to Terra?

"I asked the Emperor, and He told me to go back to Terra. He said He had something to give me, and then He would explain the situation to me in person."

When Wang Ming heard Xu Zheng's question, he told Xu Zheng about his conversation with the Emperor. He wanted to ask the Emperor directly at that time, but the Emperor's answer was to ask him to return to Terra once, because the Emperor had something to give him.

"Terra..., the Earth in this world is really a..., difficult place to describe."

Wang Ming looked at the stars in the sky and muttered to himself silently, the earth, in the memory of earthlings, should be a beautiful blue planet, but the current earth, today's Terra, has become a big dirt ball. This is a sorrow for time travelers like them. The former oceans have become huge basins, and the former homelands have become huge nest cities. Everything makes the time travelers feel as if they were in another world. They do not think that the future of their world will be like this. The future in their hearts should be the same as the golden age. Science and technology are the direction of human development, and humans should conquer the galaxy under prosperity and unity.

But they did not see that bright future. They only saw this devastated galaxy and this extremely desperate future for humanity. There was no hope, no light. Human civilization was filled with endless religious fanaticism. Technology had become something that could be believed in. The entire civilization was in an extremely corrupt state, with a corrupt political system and ignorant people. Most people were poor all their lives. Some were so poor that they only had faith left. Even so, there were a large number of mutants who were not defined as human. With such a dark future and such a desperate universe, do the time travelers think this is the future that humanity should have?

The cause of all this is not something else, but the four twisted and blasphemous evil gods sitting high on the throne of the Warp.

Catachan's mortal auxiliary troops stepped into the transport plane above the fortress. They were about to leave their hometown and head for the magnificent and vast galaxy.

"This is the last batch of supplies that arrived. It will be enough for you to use for 150 years. The next batch will arrive in 100 years."

Wang Ming was standing on the fortress. He was talking with the local Catachans about the supply issues of the Catachan world. When he left Catachan, he left behind 150 years of supplies for Catachan. These were things that Catachan urgently needed. After all, various things in this world were not edible at all. It couldn't be said that they were inedible. It was just a question of whether your food could defeat yours.

"Thank you, great Lord Protector. The Catachan people will always remember the gift of the 21st Legion."

The Catachan looked at Wang Ming, and he respectfully gave him a Sky Eagle Salute. To the Catachans, the Primarch of the 21st Legion was a respectable existence, not only because of his identity as the genetic Primarch, but also because of the Catachan demons that Wang Ming had killed in this month. The month that Wang Ming spent on Catachan was not a month spent in the fortress. He went deep into the jungle alone several times to deal with the Catachan demons within ten kilometers. All the Catachan demons in that area were killed by Wang Ming in a month. Although other Catachan demons would quickly fill their positions, that area was very safe at least for a period of time, although this safety standard was the standard of the Catachans.

After the fleet had organized the new mortal auxiliary forces, Wang Ming returned to the Sun Bastion and set off directly. This journey to Catachan was very short, but the jungle of Catachan still taught the traversers one thing: the natural environment of Catachan is also very deadly to the Astartes and the Primarchs.

This is why Wang Ming tried so hard to stop Leman Russ from landing on Catachan. Although he said that Leman Russ, the great wolf king, had experienced many battles, in the environment of Catachan, who knew if Leman Russ would step on a big toad when he landed? He did not have the immortality that Wang Ming had, and Wang Ming did not want a Primarch to die on Catachan inexplicably.

The fleet's voyage time is very long, even if it needs to travel through the warp, it will take a year. This time is not a big deal for warp travel, and Wang Ming is not worried about any accidents. There is a regiment of traversers stationed on each ship, and some ships are directly docked in the Sun Fortress. Their defense pressure is not too great. At the same time, Wang Ming asked the astropath to send the news of Leman Russ's return and trip to Terra to the Space Wolves. As for whether they can receive it or not, that is not Wang Ming's business. Anyway, the message has been sent.

During this year, the entire fleet spent most of its time sailing in the subspace, with only one month to change the subspace channel in the real universe. Wang Ming also got to know Leman Russ well during this year. This space husky was simply a wine lover. He dragged Wang Ming to "taste" wine with him every day. Yes, it was indeed wine tasting, barrels of wine.

However, the fleet arrived at Terra two years late. The reason was simple: the fleet was not just traveling during those two years. They responded to requests for help from many worlds. Billions of cultists died at the hands of the fleet, as did many Chaos warbands. It can be said that they were putting out fires everywhere while sailing during these two years. This also shows that the time travelers acted quickly. You know, in the previous battles, the time travelers stayed in many worlds for several years. They needed to build defenses and industrial systems for these worlds at that time, but putting out fires on the dark side of the Empire was different.

These worlds will receive support from the Empire in the near future. Their routes have been marked by the fleet, and the subsequent Indomitable Expedition Fleet will go directly to these worlds along the routes. All the traversers have to do is to clean up the heretics and aliens on the worlds, and then provide these worlds with enough supplies.

It is worth mentioning that the fleet also encountered a fleet of space dwarves. After seeing this human federal fleet, these dwarves were all shocked as if they had seen a ghost. Even though Wang Ming wanted to communicate with them, their fleet was running so fast that it looked like it was almost overloading at sub-light speed.
