From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

After all, in the 40k era when all powerful races in the universe have suffered heavy losses and their technological strength has been greatly reduced, the Necrons still possess many ancient and powerful technologies, and even have records of hunting the gods of the physical universe: [Star Gods]. It is still worth Si Ye's vigilance.

"Uh...it's not the Necrons you mentioned in the intelligence, but something else, involving those high-ranking beings in the Void Realm."

A piece of intelligence was delivered to Si Ye. Good, it wasn't the Necrons, nor were they any more troublesome creatures. It was just a group of cultists taking advantage of the chaos in the Lower Nest to perform Chaos rituals.

These Khorne-worshipping cultists took advantage of the chaos to slaughter some residents of the Lower Hive, and had a bloody hand-to-hand fight with the mutant gangs. It seemed that they had gathered enough sacrifices for the ceremony, and performed a Chaos ritual in a residential area in the Lower Hive, hoping to gain more power, or bring the Khorne demons to the hive city to complete a greater sacrifice.

This situation actually shouldn't be reported to Si Ye. After all, the army is approaching in large numbers, and the cultists' chaos rituals are still the most sophisticated. Even if some chaos demons like bloodletters and blood demons emerge from them, they will most likely be sent back home by the heavy tank [Sabertooth Tiger]'s antimatter cannon.

But when the army group wiped out all the cultists and planned to completely destroy the brewing chaos ritual, the virtual evil god connected to the psychic network stepped forward to stop them, and staged a vivid image of a telecom fraud from another world in front of the marines present.

"What do you mean the World Ghoul is pretending to be a Khorne cultist, tricking the demons on the other side of the Chaos Ritual into falling into its trap..."

Chaos rituals that summon demons often require time and opportunity, and the short-lived warp channels formed through sacrifices and rituals are used to attract warp demons into the real universe.

The warp demons corresponding to the ritual will first throw some weak demons that can pass through the narrow passage over, allowing them to create greater chaos on the opposite side and expand the ritual passage until it can accommodate those powerful demons to pass through.

This was supposed to be a gradual process, but now that all the cultists have been killed, there is no one to maintain it unless the Khorne demons pay for it themselves, and the ritual should have died out on its own due to insufficient sacrifices.

But the World Ghoul took over the ritual and started fishing.

He released some of his own power, making the Khorne demons on the other side of the passage feel that the environment behind this summoning ceremony could satisfy their desire for killing and fighting. Those powerful Khorne demons urged the blood demons and hunting mastiffs beside them to squeeze into the passage, hoping to expand the passage so that they could come in and enjoy the feast of killing.

Then the World Ghoul on the other side of the passage opened his mouth and ate every Khorne demon that came, and then digested this part of the power through the connection between him and Night's Guard.

Although these blood demons and hunting mastiffs could not provide him, a top-level virtual evil god, with increased power, for the virtual evil god, obtaining new power from the outside was almost an instinct. Even if it did not enhance his own strength in the slightest, it would still make him happy.

In the warp, the Khorne demons and even Khorne champions standing beside the passage, eager to try, stared at each other in amazement. They kept stuffing blood demons, hunting mastiffs and even bloodletters into the passage, but the other side of the passage was just like the bottomless abyss, without a single ripple, and the passage showed no sign of expanding.

The demons of Khorne have always had a bad temper. A Khorne champion could no longer sit still and began to actively invest his strength. After all, considering the battlefield atmosphere behind the passage, which was filled with the smell of bloodshed, he felt that he could earn back the money by investing some strength to expand the passage.

The passage expanded a little bit, but before the Khorne champion could roar in joy, a strange suction force came from the passage, and in full view of the other Khorne demons, the Khorne champion was sucked into a wisp of ashes.

Stir, stir what!

The Khorne demons that were originally surrounding the passage retreated one after another, looking at the passage as if they were seeing some monstrous beast.

Warp demons are usually immortal. The swords, spears, halberds, bombs and lasers of the physical universe can only destroy the demons' bodies. Even the powerful Grey Knights of the Human Empire can only exile Warp demons most of the time. Once they return to the Warp, the Supreme Evil Gods often only need a thought to resurrect these demons who have lost their flesh.

But what happened to the Khorne champion just now did not seem like he was expelled, but rather it seemed like he was completely wiped out by that existence that even the demons of the Warp did not want to mention.

A wisp of golden flame suddenly gushed out from the gradually shrinking passage, causing a Khorne demon that was unable to dodge to follow the same fate as the Khorne champion and be burned to ashes.

“The Cursed One!!!”

Seeing the golden psychic energy, the Khorne demons, known for their bravery and ferocity, fled in all directions like chicks whose vitals were pinched, fearing that they would be hit by the golden psychic energy and killed completely.

In the High Heavens, Khorne, who was fighting the Emperor 1v4 men, took the time to look at his brass throne and immediately noticed the golden flame licking back and forth among the demons of Khorne. Although it felt something was wrong, it quickly forgot about those trivial matters in a fierce sneak attack from the Emperor, and gave the Emperor a powerful counterattack with an angry roar.

Although Khorne didn't know what was wrong with the Emperor, and he actually chose to take the initiative to attack, Khorne would never avoid a challenge when there was a fight.

Even though the other three Warp Gods each had their own thoughts and hindered each other, causing it to be beaten the worst, Khorne still fought fiercely with the Emperor. The collision of the two top Warp entities caused a huge Warp storm to blow in the real universe.

"Don't do that next time. I had to be secretive in the early stages, and you almost exposed me."

Si Ye angrily knocked the World Ghoul back into the psychic network.

To put it simply, the World Ghoul's behavior is just eating some Warp demons, but to put it more broadly, it is sucking the blood of Khorne. That is Khorne's home ground, the Brass Throne. If it sucks for too long, it will definitely be discovered, and the plan of Si Ye's secret operation will be destroyed.

Fortunately, Si Ye reacted in time and used the ability of the End of Reincarnation to lead everything to the end, simulated the Emperor's psychic characteristics, and shifted the blame.

"Contractor,"

Perhaps it was Samsara who led these virtual evil gods astray. In the face of interests, these virtual evil gods were really willing to lower themselves. The World Ghoul, wearing Sakura Anko's suit, tilted his head in front of Si Ye, trying to get away with it by acting cute.

boom!

Si Ye didn't buy it and hit the World Ghoul again.

"If you mess around, you won't have anything to eat."

This threat was more effective than anything else. The other evil gods in the virtual realm who were originally watching the show immediately cast their dark eyes on the World Ghoul, as if if he continued to mess around, he would be surrounded and beaten.

"…Understood!"

The evil gods in the virtual realm are immortal, so being surrounded and beaten will only make them feel uncomfortable for a while. Even if this period of time is frighteningly long, warmongers like the World Ghoul don't really care.

If He had not seen the light, then He could naturally endure darkness.

But now, after seeing Si Ye, the contractor, travel through the world and retrieve the fragments of the universe for the end of reincarnation, he was definitely unwilling to return to the virtual world to wait for the right person. He had no choice but to bow his head to admit his mistake and secretly provided Si Ye with more power as a bribe.

Chapter 308 Temporary Resettlement Plan

While Will took PDF to the lower nest to pick up civilians, the Imperial Guards also completed their survey of the entire hive world.

According to the remaining parchment records in the planetary government, when the last census was conducted on the hive world of Lagtomo, the entire hive world, including one large and three small hive groups and some settlements, had a total population of nearly 200 billion.

However, as the planet's environment deteriorated, problems began to arise in ground settlements. A large number of people in the settlements died, and only a small number escaped into the lower nest relying on simple breathing and circulation equipment.

Adding to the destruction of the small hive cities caused by this greenskin invasion, the host estimates that the remaining population of this planet will not exceed 80 billion. Together with the 1 million or so miners and slaves on the mining satellites, these are all the living humans in this galaxy.

"Your Majesty... the humans in this world... aren't they a bit problematic?"

The Imperial Guard who was in charge of reporting the situation had mixed emotions, and his face looked like he wanted permission to open fire.

The reason for this emotion is simple. In the process of searching for information, the Imperial Guards inevitably saw some magical specialties of the 40k world, those mechanical servants that served as biological servers in factories and public areas, and the servo skulls that served as data storage systems.

Although the Human Union had used harsh methods to deal with some serious criminals under the pressure of war in its early days, the level of anti-humanity in making mechanical servants and servo skulls was obviously still too high.

"Didn't you read the mission briefing?"

Si Ye was not surprised. Sacrifice was the cornerstone for the continuation of the bloated corpse of the Human Empire. The word "sacrifice" included both external and internal sacrifices.

Although in order to prevent the servitors from appearing so anti-human, GW once changed the settings of some servitors, claiming that most of them were biochemical products from incubators, but when it was actually implemented in the story, they were made entirely of human materials.

"...Uh, Your Majesty, I did see it, but I didn't expect human civilization to be so..."

The Imperial Guards tried to find a suitable word to describe the Human Empire, but it was obviously difficult.

This world is so fucked up. For the people of the Star Sea Empire, who have higher moral standards, it will obviously take some time to accept it.

"Okay, sacrifice is the cornerstone of the continuation of the human empire, but not of the Star Empire. The Pan-Human Community will improve the living environment of mankind in this fucked-up universe."

Si Ye waved his hand, telling the Imperial Guards to stop dwelling on this. He picked up the intelligence briefs that had been reported and flipped through them, trying to see if there was any information he had missed.

"Armament report...are they actually really poor, rather than just receiving kickbacks from the planetary governor?"

A report recovered from the wreckage of the Spire caught Nyx's attention: the Hive World had placed an order for weapons from the Forge World.

Normally, the Military Affairs Department of each star region of the Human Empire would regularly provide a portion of armaments to the planetary garrisons to enhance local defense capabilities.

As an unlucky family that was exiled to this frontier area due to failure in political struggles, although the German family avoided an "accident" in the marginal world, the aftermath of Terra's politics still made it inevitable that this lonely noble family would be bullied. The Ragtomo galaxy was obviously also dragged down and became an unlucky world with no one to love and care for it, and even the armaments had to be purchased in order to be replenished.

Therefore, as a hive world with nearly 50 planetary defense forces, Planetary Governor Griffin needs to place a moderate order with the Forge World in order to make up the basic number of laser weapons and armored vehicles needed to maintain the planetary defense forces.

However, the overly barren galaxy and the gradually declining family made Griffin seem a little too embarrassed to pay, and this hesitation was reflected in the fact that he ordered laser guns in both decimal and round quantities, and ordered Chimera armored vehicles one by one. For the only large order, he applied for installment payments for dozens of Chimera armored vehicles from the Forge World.

You know, the main training subjects for becoming a qualified planetary defense force or even the Astra Militarum include proficient operation of Chimera armored vehicles. Si Ye finds it hard to imagine how the Astra Militarum political commissar who is responsible for training the PDF of this hive world completes his work when the armaments have to be accumulated bit by bit.

"So, not only will I gain nothing from taking over this system, I'll also have to inherit the debts owed by both the other side and the Frontier Forge World... That planetary governor is still quite the showman. He looks so reluctant, but he's probably really happy inside."

As for Governor Griffin, who was so happy in his heart, it was unreasonable that he turned into a big firework in reality. Si Ye thought it was very reasonable.

As for the debt with the Casting World, it would be best if those oil men forgot about it. If they dare to come to collect the debt, Si Ye will teach these oil men with bad brains a lesson about the rules.

"Your Majesty, the planetary defense commander said he has pacified the people and can now bring them back."

Will's mission in the Lower Nest was to contact and control the residents of the Lower Nest. Si Ye approved a small amount of food for him as a tool to appease the residents. It seemed that this commander was quite efficient.

"Be prepared at the entrance and conduct the first round of screening to identify those infected and sick. Isolate the sick and treat the infected."

The Imperial Guards received the order and went to gather people and prepare.

If it were a human empire, without the ability to use artificial intelligence and relying solely on skilled Homo sapiens to do the work, it would be very difficult for a hive city to conduct a complete statistics and screening of billions of people.

But for the Star Empire, which can use AI, things are much simpler. Billions of lower nest residents only need a few hours to complete the preliminary inspection, find the infected and sick people mixed in, and isolate and treat them.

A middle-aged man who tried to escape from the inspection team had half of his body blasted off by a precise laser beam. He lost his balance and fell to the ground, howling miserably like a pig being slaughtered.

The residents of the Lower Nest who were waiting in line for inspection all had expressions of panic on their faces. They didn't know why they were brought to the Upper Nest, nor did they know why the man was killed by the laser beam. In the fear of the unknown, chaos seemed to be brewing.

"Don't be afraid, this is an alien!"

Although Will is now the highest official in the Hive World, he is still busy doing his usual work. While relying on the sound amplification array to appease the crowd, he ordered people to take off the work hat on the head of the middle-aged man whose half body was burned.

A plate-like structure resembling a bone plate appeared on the other person's smooth bald head. This was a member of the Genestealer sect who had infiltrated the crowd. In the human empire where the integrity of the skull was a symbol of purity, this head shape was obviously a representative of alien heresy. The riot brewing in the surrounding crowd subsided and turned into some subtle sobs.

If it were the Human Empire, the bloated and cumbersome administrative structure would prevent them from accurately locating aliens and ordinary people who were not aliens. Therefore, in order to permanently eliminate the problem, generally when an alien or heretic appeared in a block, it meant that the vast majority of people in the block would be labeled and would be dealt with.

So when they saw the solid evidence that the strong man who was shot dead was an alien, the residents of the Lower Nest who lived in the same block with this man, or even had just had brief contact with him, began to cry for their own lives that were about to come to an end.

However, the one who took over them was the Star Sea Empire, a pan-human community that relied on technology to accurately locate aliens and examined heretics through psychic mind reading. There was no need to hold these innocent residents accountable.

"Don't panic. As long as you can pass the inspection, the kind and benevolent Rogue Trader, His Excellency Elfindor, will not hold your negligence in not discovering the heretical alien. He will provide you with the necessities of life for the short term. Once the hive is repaired, you can return home."

The breach in the lower nest was indeed serious. Will had thought that Si Ye had allowed the residents of the lower nest to enter the upper nest in order to buy time to repair the outer wall of the lower nest.

Although the Nighthawks of the Nest City do not plan to repair it, they still have to provide daily necessities, otherwise these homeless residents of the Lower Nest will freeze to death on the streets of the Upper Nest.

Temporary living modules were teleported to the teleportation base one by one. Si Ye unceremoniously flattened the useless Gothic spires of the upper nest, and then began to stack boxes one by one to create temporary houses.

Although some factory executives and members of the aristocratic family's side branches disagreed with this behavior that damaged their property, they dared not say anything when Si Yeyan directly declared a member of the aristocratic family a heretic and then hanged them all.

In this way, the residents of Xiachao lived in temporary houses that were more spacious than the Xiachao residential area and drank hot soup without any peculiar smell. In addition to the sense of regret for surviving the disaster, they also had a dreamlike feeling. They could not believe that one day they would be able to enjoy such treatment.

Even Will and his men were a little confused after they received their share of supplies, sat by the heater, drank hot soup, and ate canned unknown hydroponic meat produced by the Star Empire.

Clean water and delicious meat supplies. Not to mention the PDF, even some Instracoms (IG) may not be able to enjoy such treatment after the battle.

"A Rogue Trader is so generous?"

Feeling the mushy meat melting in his mouth, Will was filled with awe for Si Ye.

Compared to the previous poor planetary governor, it is obviously a better choice to replace him with a generous and magnanimous traveling merchant as his immediate boss.

Will, who was showing off his meat can, secretly swore that if the guild representatives and the state religion priests had any objections to the Rogue Traders entering the Lagtomo Hive World, then he, Will, would definitely stand on the side of the Rogue Traders and clear all obstacles for them.

In fact, what Will didn't know was that the supplies that he considered luxurious were actually distributed with great care after Si Ye had reduced them several times.

After all, in this world where evil gods of the subspace exist, if you indulge in pleasure, you will really be corrupted in the physical sense. In order to avoid large-scale corruption caused by giving too good treatment at one time, Si Ye unprecedentedly came up with a level five treatment.

Yes, when even the lowest treatment for the empire's subordinates is level three, Si Ye specially created a level five treatment for the humans of the human empire.
