My Desperate Journey in 40k

"Sigh..., it's not bad. At least they are not ruled by those robot guys as real objects, but it's not too bad."

Zhou Heng looked at those people, and he said to Wang Ming helplessly. Zhou Heng knew the lives of most civilians in the empire. The kind of life in this world, in most of the empire worlds, was already It’s something that can be sought but not obtained.

"When I was on Terra, I had conveyed orders to all aspects of the empire regarding the welfare of civilians, but many planetary governors were obedient and disobeyed. In fact, we can't blame them. After all, the empire collects taxes on those worlds. It’s there for all to see.”

Wang Ming looked at Zhou Heng, and he said helplessly that when he was in Holy Terra, he had already issued this order to all the worlds of the empire, but due to the influence of subspace, or the governors' obedience and disobedience, this order The execution efficiency is simply worrying.

Under this order, some worlds have indeed reduced the workload of civilians and increased the daily food intake of some people. However, this can only be said to be almost completely unchanged from the changes mentioned before. The lives of civilians The water is still in dire straits, and the oppression of the nobles is still pressing on every commoner's head.

There is no way around this. After all, if these nobles can give up their rights, can they still be called imperial nobles? There is also the issue of imperial taxation. The imperial tithe is not something they can negotiate with the empire. Conditions, as long as the tax rate does not meet the standards, they will usher in the empire's punishment fleet. The empire must be very familiar with this aspect.

“The road ahead is long and arduous, let’s see how we do it.”

Wang Ming stretched helplessly, then patted Zhou Heng on the shoulder, and returned to the Thunder Eagle gunboat that had brought them here.

Wang Ming and Zhou Heng quickly returned to the Sun Fortress. They had already begun to plan their next move. The fleet had already begun to move forward. Most of the things in this world had been solved. The fleet would not fight for this world. Stopped.

"The next world..., how should I put it? It's very strange, a war-style amusement park, can you imagine it?"

On top of the Sun Fortress, in the strategic command room, Wang Ming looked at the information in his hands. He said to the travelers around him with a strange look on his face. The travelers also looked at Wang Ming strangely. War-style amusement park , what the hell is this? Have people in the golden age started to play like this? Treat war as a game?

"Let me explain it. It is a nostalgic-themed military simulation vacation world. The theme of its military simulation is the ancient Earth during the Cold War. Well, there are not many things that threaten us, but there are not many things on it that threaten us. It's not that small. One of the important pieces of information is that there is a nuclear bomb reserve in this world. How can I say this... I once visited this world during the era of the Human Federation. Those local residents with strong martial arts and martial virtues... The large number of tourists left a lot of impression on me.”

Zhou Heng looked at the strange-looking travelers. He told them about what he had seen and heard about the world in the golden age. This world was the private property of a rich man who liked the history of ancient earth wars. This guy took this The terrain of the world has been transformed into the appearance of the continental plates of the ancient Earth, and he also specially customized a lot of weapons and equipment of that era. Originally, he was going to make them for himself, but due to some profit reasons, The world has also become a holiday amusement park open to the outside world.

"To treat a world as private property and transform it into an amusement park for only one person to play, are you, the Human Federation, so outrageous?"

Hu Jin looked at Zhou Heng and said with a strange look on his face, that is a world, a complete world, it was transformed when it was said to be transformed, and the original purpose of this rich man was to have fun for himself, this fucking thing would be everywhere It's outrageous.

"Well, don't worry about it. The big capitalists in the Federation are more playful than you think. I've seen people raising Eldest slaves."

Zhou Heng looked at Hu Jin, who waved to him, and then said calmly that he didn't care about the shock of these time-travelers. What hadn't he seen in the federal era?

"Ahem, let's get back to the topic. Captain Zhou Heng, what kind of things might we encounter in that world? Let's assume that after such a long time, the local world can be completely self-sufficient, and their communication with the outside world has been cut off. In this case, what might they become?"

Wang Ming looked at the time travelers who were still immersed in thinking about the golden age and how much fun humans had. He coughed and brought everyone's attention back to the main topic.

"If there is no internal war, they should be able to preserve the complete political system of a world. What is scary is that through the data on the world of their descendants, they feel that their world is the earth, and they are those The country, in that case, will be in trouble for such a long time, and they will definitely break out into civil war."

After Zhou Heng heard Wang Ming's words, he began to analyze seriously. They can only know the current situation of that world by looking at it. From this, most of the inferences are based on what happened in other worlds. .

"Okay, let's go take a good look at that world, but we still have to pay attention to the nuclear weapons they have in their hands. These things may turn this world into a Death Star."

Wang Ming looked at the time-travelers, clapped his hands, and then said to them, based on the information Wang Ming knew, if all the configurations of this world were really strictly copied from the ancient Earth during the Cold War, then this The nuclear weapons in the world can plow the entire planet several times.

The fleet is just sneaking in the void of the universe without starting the Y-space navigation. The Kronos expansion area has extremely bad sub-space navigation conditions. After turning on the sub-space engine, we still don’t know where it will be thrown, so The fleet has always used a curvature engine to advance, but this thing is really too slow. As an engine that can travel at super-light speeds in the physical universe, its speed is still too slow for interstellar navigation.

The fleet sailed, and it took more than three months to reach its destination. The moment they arrived at their destination, their hearts froze. They saw a blue planet reflected in their pupils, above that planet. The familiar continental plates appeared in their eyes one by one, and something that made their hearts go cold was that the so-called cities in this world have become visible to the naked eye above the planet's orbit. Crater".

But everyone knows that it is definitely not a crater, but a nuclear explosion site caused by a large number of nuclear weapons.

"So, the thing I'm most worried about will still happen."

In the strategic command room, Wang Ming looked at the reconnaissance pictures of that world. His heart felt cold. With the intensity of this nuclear strike, even if there were survivors in this world, they would probably have a hard time living. However, according to the events of this incident, Information, this incident should have a large number of subway facilities and nuclear shelter facilities. I would also like to praise the unknown federal tycoon. Because of his fanatical love for the history of Ancient Terra, he abruptly transferred from the Federation The layout and construction of those cities back then were purchased in the database.

And for the sake of rigor, he also reproduced these cities and facilities 1:1. I can only say that they don’t understand the world of the federal tycoons at all. They have so much money and transform a world just to play a military simulation. As for ? Wouldn’t it be nice to use the money to customize several gene-edited girlfriends? Of course, this idea is based on the idea that the time before the time travelers traveled through was still a mortal era.

There are still many military veterans among the time-travelers. Ask yourself, if they had the financial resources of that federal tycoon, it would be absolutely impossible for them to do these things. In other words, they are not like the federal tycoons who would pursue their own interests. The thought of being happy and spending money.

However, although it is determined that this world is dead, there is still no problem with the basic structure of this world. It is just that the radiation content on the ground and in the atmosphere is a bit high. It seems that this war has not been far away from this era. By then After purifying the earth's atmosphere, this world can still be put into normal use.

After confirming this matter, the fleet began to launch troops into this world. After the empty head capsule entered the atmosphere, beautiful meteors were formed. The meteors streaked over the cities of this world, bringing some surprises to the dead cities. Guest, the city where the meteor shower died formed a beautiful picture at this moment, as if it were the art work of those artists in the ancient Terra era.

If Wang Ming had seen this scene, he would probably have said, "This is the afterglow of human beings after a nuclear war." Such words are filled with emotion, but this world is just one of countless worlds of human beings, regardless of Although it resembles the ancient earth, it is not that beautiful and fertile world.

As soon as the airdrop cabin landed and the hatch was opened, the Geiger counters on the mortal auxiliary troops who followed the traversers down began to crackle. You can intuitively feel that the radiation index of this world is absolutely ridiculously high. But fortunately, these radiations are not a problem for them wearing power armor. No matter how powerful the radiation is, you can still get into the fully enclosed power armor.

"Spread out the search team to search the inside of the city, try to find survivors above this world, and prioritize underground facilities."

Wang Ming looked at the radiation index on his tactical eyepiece. He issued an order to the mortal auxiliary army. Then, the mortal auxiliary army began to move quickly. The search teams were dispersed one by one, and each one The huge vehicle was launched from the huge cargo airdrop pod.

To be honest, in cities in this world that have undergone nuclear explosions, there are basically not many buildings that can be seen in their original appearance. Countless high-rise buildings have collapsed. Under the high-intensity radiation, the lifespan of a large number of building materials has been shortened. Severely shortened, the shocks caused by those large vehicles during their travels even collapsed many crumbling buildings.

"What a doomsday scene."

The time travelers were walking in the city. They looked at the ruins of the city and sighed like this. They had been to many worlds, but they had never seen anything so similar to the ancient earth. They I even saw traces of Chinese and English on some stone tablets. It seems that under the influence of time, only by carving words on stones can they exist longer.

Chapter 517 Chaos Faith in a Nuclear Wasteland World

The time-travelers walked like this while admiring the scenery after the nuclear apocalypse. They looked at the collapsed buildings and those that still had some things that might be words on the buildings. They all appreciated the once largest human beings. The gold content of doomsday weapons.

It is not that the time travelers have never used nuclear bombs. In a previous war to defend against the Tyranids, they had also seen an imperial world turn into a radioactive wasteland under nuclear weapons. They had also seen the world turn into nuclear waste. The nuclear winter of the earth world, but it is so intuitive to feel that a world with the ancient earth as the design background has become a wasteland, this visual impact is still relatively large.

"Oh my god...how many nuclear bombs have been hit in this city? The Geiger counter is about to explode."

Hu Jin looked at the ruins around him and sighed to Wang Ming. The Geiger counter had not stopped ringing since they entered the city.

"There are obvious traces of a dirty bomb. The half-life of the surrounding radiation is very long. There are too many pollutants."

Wang Ming looked at the radiation index on the tactical eyepiece. He said to Hu Jin beside him that this city had obviously been hit by a dirty bomb. The radiation value on the surface had completely exceeded the range that organic life could bear. A If a human stands on the ground without any protective clothing, he will be eroded by radiation into a piece of rotten flesh within a few minutes.

"Okay, we don't need to move forward anymore. There is no need to look at the radiation index ahead."

Wang Ming looked at the data on the tactical eyepiece, and then issued an order to his team. They no longer need to move forward. This city has been turned into a dead city by nuclear bombs and cobalt bombs. Now they can only see Check to see if there are survivors underground, and you also need to confirm which city it is through the continental plate. If the city does not have a nuclear shelter facility or a deep enough subway, then the survivors are nonsense.

"Javier, Javier, do you hear it? It seems like the sound of humans walking around."

"Mikhail, please stop being suspicious. It's hard enough to be stationed here, and you have to tell me ghost stories every day. By the way, have you taken anti-radiation medicine?"

"Hit it, Mad, I said this station is too close and the radiation has seeped in. If it weren't for the anti-radiation medicine, we would have died long ago."

"Come on, Mikhail, are you just here for those extra bullets? If it weren't for those extra overtime pay, would you come to this place to see the radiation monster baring its teeth?"

In a subway station under the city, two people were wearing red federal military uniforms produced many years ago. They looked at the bright subway illuminated by various searchlights in front of them, as well as the various objects arranged on the subway tracks. Traps, as well as the radioactive mutant corpses stuck on various traps, the two of them chatted idlely.

"No, no, no, I am a soldier of the Red Federation, and I fight to protect my country."

The soldier named Mikhail looked at his comrades beside him. He patted the Medal of Honor on his chest, pointed to the red star on it, and then said to Havel.

"I was not a soldier before the war. I was forcibly recruited. I don't understand the glory of your soldiers. I just want to survive. I really don't understand. Why do we have to fight? Well, Isn’t it good to live? Those big guys are really the apostles of Satan..."

Havel looked at the medal on Mikhail's chest. He didn't have any idea about this thing. He was not a soldier before the war, he was just a farmer before the war. He really didn't understand why those big shots wanted to fight. , wouldn’t it be nice to plant some potatoes and raise some poultry? We must fight and destroy this world.

"The setting of a thousand suns destroyed human civilization. The sun turned into a nuclear fireball is the setting sun of mankind. Satan released the devil and let him use the sun to destroy the world. Hahaha, Javier, do you believe in the Metro Cult? Hahaha, laugh. It kills me, you should know that those people actually said that the subway was created by God, it is so ridiculous, as a materialist, I advise you to burn those things taught by the subway quickly, you are a bunch of fools."

Mikhail laughed at Havel, laughing at him for actually believing what those famous fools in the subway said. He was a materialist. Where did the devil come from in the world, that is, those capital gadgets who wanted to be great with themselves? The motherland is just at war. They only have their own interests in mind and don't care about the life and death of the people at all.

"you're right."

Havel thought for a moment, then nodded towards Mikhail. He took out a book and threw it into the fire next to him. Under the light of the fire, the book began to burn. On the cover of the book, a variant of the eight-pointed star of chaos is shining under the light of the flames.

"Is this the subway system... It's really dark, and it's not deep enough. Sir, can humans really survive here? Although the radiation index has been reduced a lot, it is still very dangerous."

On the subway track, a group of mortal auxiliary troops and two time travelers were walking in the subway. They looked at the surrounding environment through the night vision devices built into their helmets. As the team advanced, a mortal auxiliary army also Talking to a time traveler.

The Mortal Auxiliary Army expressed concern about the depth of this subway. He believed that this depth could not block radiation at all, and humans could not survive in such a place.

"Not necessarily, kid. Human beings will always find a way out for themselves. We saw some human corpses on the way here. There are definitely people in the subway system."

The time traveler looked at the mortal auxiliary beside him and said to him that he believed that human beings can find a way to survive anywhere. Even in the worst environment, human beings still have hope of existence.

"Sir, if this is indeed the case, we will definitely be able to find survivors."

The mortal auxiliary army listened to the words of the traversers, he nodded to the traversers, and then answered to the traversers.

At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the front of the team. As the roar came, a chaotic sound of running also appeared in the subway in front. With the appearance of the sound of running, everyone They raised their weapons and aimed at the darkness ahead. The darkness in the subway system actually had no effect on them. Everyone had night vision devices on their power armor helmets, and they could clearly see what was ahead. Everything.

In the subway tunnel ahead, there were countless cat-sized, mouse-like creatures. From the big yellow tooth exposed outside their mouths, it could be seen that they were probably mutations of rodents. They rushed towards the troops chattering, and the black mass was enough to make almost everyone who faced them despair.

But for the mortal auxiliary troops and time travelers, these things were nothing. At best, they were just some large rats. Plasma rifles and grenade launchers soon started shooting at the rats. Shots of plasma and grenade hit the rats. How could these mutant creatures with flesh and blood survive under the firepower of these thermal weapons? They didn't even have time to scream before they were quickly evaporated.

Under this firepower, the rats were quickly evaporated. The rats at the end of the team also noticed something was wrong, and just when they were about to escape, plasma and explosive bombs completely ended their lives.

Creatures of flesh and blood have no resistance when faced with thermal weapons. Looking at the corpses on the ground and the unknown organizations that were burned to coke, this idea appeared in everyone's mind, but This idea actually doesn't work very well in this universe. After all, the Tyranids are still there.

After clearing the rat swarm, the team continued to move forward. On the empty subway, there was only the sound of their footsteps. Perhaps the mutated animals hidden in the dark were frightened by their powerful firepower. They almost didn't encounter them along the way. There was no big danger, except for the sudden attack by a mutated dog-like thing, which shocked the mortal auxiliary troops, and there was nothing else.

And the deeper they go into the subway, the more they find that there seem to be more and more traces of human beings, abandoned fortifications, a large number of human corpses and broken weapons. However, what makes them feel speechless is that these dead humans and fortifications There are a large number of gun holes on it, which are obviously man-made killings. These things all show that even if the humans in this world have reached this level, they are still fighting civil war for those pitiful resources.

"Sir, is that light in front of you?"

And just as they were moving forward together, at a corner ahead, they actually saw light. The light meant that there must be someone here.

"Everyone is prepared, talk to them first, and fire directly if there is any problem. Our mission is to recover as peacefully as possible, but recovery by force is also an alternative."

The two time travelers looked at the light ahead. After giving an order to the mortal auxiliary troops, they walked directly forward.

"Mikhail, I think you are right. I seem to hear footsteps right in front."

Javier looked at the subway tunnel ahead, and he said to Mikhail beside him. He didn't believe Mikhail's words before, thinking that their site should not be attacked by any force, but now they are indeed It was the sound of walking footsteps.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? You can probably hear the loud footsteps on the ground. Hurry up, turn on all the searchlights, and then put that damn machine gun on me."

Mikhail looked at Harvey and noticed that Mikhail shouted, as a veteran who has experienced the world nuclear war, his combat experience is infinitely higher than that of a conscript like Havel. He stared at the subway tunnel in front of him with the AK 74 rifle in his hand, already aiming in that direction. As long as any creature appeared in his field of vision, he would shoot immediately.

People in the subway not only have to fight against creatures mutated by nuclear radiation, but also against their own kind. The competition for resources is everywhere in the subway. In this small space, all kinds of human nature It is vividly reflected that bullets, population, weapons and equipment, and the most important anti-radiation medicine are all things that people in the subway are constantly fighting for.

"People in front, listen up, we are human beings, let's talk and don't open fire."

Just when Mikhail's nerves were about to reach the point of nervousness, a voice suddenly came from the front. The speaker used a language they were familiar with, Russian, and even had a little flick of the tongue.

"It's a human being, not a radiation monster..."

After Javier heard that voice, he was obviously relieved, but Mikhail was not. He still held up the AK 74 rifle in his hand and stared at the subway tunnel ahead.

As a soldier, it is impossible for him to let down his guard just because of a word. Who knows who is on the other side? Are they those guys who betrayed the motherland, or are they the enemy's occupying forces?

And just as Mikhail was entering the subway tunnel, a huge figure suddenly walked up to them. It was a three-meter-tall giant wearing a thick armor painted with silver and gold. Both of them were surprised. Looking at the giant, they had never seen this thing before. Is it a new weapon of the enemy?

Just when they were about to ask questions, Mikhail suddenly saw a double-headed eagle with red as the background and gold as the main color on the giant's shoulders. When he saw this pattern, he immediately put down his weapon. , it is absolutely impossible for those Meika people to use this as a symbol. As a Red Federation person, he is familiar with this symbol.

"So your nuclear war happened thirty-eight years ago?"

In this small subway outpost, a mortal auxiliary soldier looked at the two disarmed mortal soldiers in front of him. He held a data pad and continuously recorded the information from their mouths.

"Sir, look at this."

And just when the local mortals were being asked for information, a mortal auxiliary suddenly walked up to a time traveler with a broken book that had been burned. He handed the book to the time traveler's hands, and then traveled through The reader saw something extremely familiar.

"Chaos Eight-Pointed Star? Is there a cult in this world?"

The time traveler looked at the book in his hand. He looked at the symbol on the cover of the book. It was a variant of the eight-pointed star of chaos adapted from the nuclear danger symbol. Although it had changed a lot, as someone who had fought against chaos, he didn’t know After so many time travels, he still saw the true nature of this thing at a glance.
