Warhammer, I'm a nanny, not your father!

"I saw him wearing armor," Coates said, trying to describe him. "He became very tall, probably more than two meters tall."

"It seems he will be your son," said Wop. "This man was saved in vain."

"How old are you?" Wop asked Ben.

Ben was very confused. Age was meaningless in the Bottom Nest. They didn't even have a concept of time. Everyone just wanted to live until tomorrow.

Wop knew that this question was difficult for him, but Ben looked like he was about seven or eight years old.

Considering that the Nest Man has been suffering from long-term malnutrition, his actual age should be over ten years old.

The age limit for Space Marine transformation surgery is 12-16 years old, so the Empire's expeditionary fleet will arrive in North Ramos within six years at the latest.

According to official history, the Emperor found Curze decades after he ruled Nostramo, but the timeline seems to have changed.

"son?"

This unfamiliar word got Coz thinking, and he knew what his son was.

He is the son and Wop is his father, so Wop has always taken care of him and educated him.

Now he also wants to have a son, does he also want to educate his son?

It's hard.

Coze gave up because he couldn't.

Fili asked timidly in the corner, "Can I be your daughter?"

The three of them looked at her, causing Fili to blush. "I'm not much older than him."

Wop shook his head: "Space Marines only want men, you have no chance."

If you want to blame someone, blame the Emperor. Who told him not to make the Primarch a female?

Fili said "oh" and was not too disappointed. She didn't want to be Koz's daughter.

Chapter 11 Dorothy

"Bang, bang, bang, bang."

Fili knocked on the iron door at a specific frequency. After receiving the signal, someone looked out from the small hole in the door.

It was a little boy, and he recognized Fili with surprise.

"Sister Fili."

"Alan, is everyone else okay?"

"Everyone is fine, but Teacher Dorothy is sick. Lan, please help me move the cabinet."

As Alan spoke, he moved the obstacle blocking the iron door and opened the door a little to let Fili in.

But when he saw other strangers, he became noticeably more nervous.

"It's okay, they are good people." Fili comforted him.

Allen looked at the healthy Wop and Coz and did not let his guard down.

But he also saw Ben, saw his two tentacles, and felt a little relieved.

Fili said anxiously: "Alan, take me to see Teacher Dorothy."

"Teacher Dorothy won't let anyone see her. She locks herself up in the house."

Alan moved the obstacle back to its original position and asked Lan's children to stay here while he led them deeper along the pipeline.

The pipeline was large and interconnected, with an open area inside where several dilapidated shacks were built with iron sheets, with a fire burning in the middle.

A dozen children gathered around the fire to warm themselves. They were all young and looked about the same age as Ben.

Some people are normal and have all their limbs intact.

Some people, like Ben, have varying degrees of mutations.

Some have dirty tails, some have hooves as legs, and some even have pointed chins and monkey-like faces like mice.

"What do you see?" Wop asked.

Coates: "A bunch of children, they are a heavy burden, and it takes a lot of food to feed them. That woman named Dorothy is amazing and great."

Alan looked at them in confusion. Fili had long been accustomed to it. Wop seemed to be educating Koz all the time. Anyway, Wop called it education.

"Teacher Dorothy can read," Fili said. "The Blood Claws asked Teacher Dorothy to teach their children to read, and in return she would get a lot of food. Teacher Dorothy could have lived with the Blood Claws and had a good life, but she adopted us. Can you save her?"

Fili's eyes pleaded.

Wop: "Where are the people? Let me try."

Coates was right about one thing: no matter who Dorothy was, she was a great woman.

Philly's rebellious spirit comes from her mother, but it is also partly influenced by Dorothy, or perhaps the mother she is talking about is actually Dorothy.

It wasn't surprising that she had lied to them when they first met; to survive in the Bottom Nest one had to do more than just tell the truth.

Judging from the living conditions of Fili and these children, they are not isolated cases.

Dorothy must have adopted many orphans, but they had to struggle for survival on their own when they grew up because Dorothy could not afford to support so many people.

Dorothy's house was in the center of the clearing, and as she approached she could hear a woman coughing.

"Teacher Dorothy, I'm here to see you." Fili knocked on the door and said anxiously, "Please open the door quickly."

"It's Fili," the woman said weakly. "Don't come in, it's contagious. You came at a bad time. I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to take care of them from now on."

Before she could finish her words, Wop kicked the iron door open.

"Coz, come with me. You stay outside."

Fili stopped nervously, she could only put her hope on Wop.

The tin room was not big, with an iron bed placed against the wall. A woman curled up on the bed, coughing, and her cough came with blood.

The torture of illness and pain made her skinny, and her hair turned yellow due to lack of care for a long time, but from her beautiful facial features, one can vaguely tell that she was very beautiful when she was healthy. Beauty does not belong to the people of Dichao.

Coze stopped.

Wop: "What did you see?"

"You can't save her," Curze said. "After she dies, the Blood Claws will find this place. To survive, the healthy children will kill their deformed companions to please the Blood Claws' thugs. They will join the Blood Claws and become their new thugs. Hope is gone."

Wop asked, "You think I can't save her?"

"I believe you." Coze shook his head. "Even if she dies, we won't let the Blood Claws destroy this place. It won't happen in the future because we're here."

"Koz, I'm very pleased that you've grown a lot."

Curze had a stern face, but the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than a grenade launcher.

Children are all like this. Encouraging education is always more effective than punishing education.

But you can't just encourage them blindly, otherwise the child will be spoiled. You need to combine soft and hard approaches.

The woman couldn't understand what they were saying. The high fever had made her unconscious, and she just kept begging.

"Help them, please."

Wop sat by the bed. He didn't know what was wrong with the woman or how to cure it.

But he has psychic powers.

Malcador was able to use psychic powers to bring the Primarch back to life. Would it be difficult for him to use psychic powers to heal a mortal?

Blue spiritual energy condensed into threads between the wops, and these threads penetrated into the woman's nose and mouth, penetrated deep into her body, and spread throughout her body.

Wop's eyes flashed blue, and his vision shifted.

What lay before him was not a woman, but a body made of threads of psychic energy.

There are three overlapping green scars on the lungs of this body.

Wop controlled his psychic energy to converge on the three green scars. Light quickly covered the surface of the scars, gradually eating away at them.

The scar became smaller and smaller, from the size of a head to the size of a fist and then an egg.

Wop put his five fingers together, squeezed hard, and the egg exploded.

"Cough cough."

Dorothy coughed twice, but this time there was no blood.

She opened her irisless eyes and looked at the man in front of the bed in awe.

"Are you a wizard?"

Wop nodded. "I'm curious about the status of wizards in this hive. Can you tell me?"

"You know about the Hive? Are you from outside?" Dorothy was surprised. "I haven't seen other wizards. I just heard that the Blood Claw Gang has a powerful wizard. They often capture other wizards and send them to the upper level, but I don't know their whereabouts."

Wop: "How many people are there in the Blood Claw Gang?"

"The core members of the Blood Claw Gang are twelve stormtroopers, each with one hundred members. If you include peripheral members, there are at least tens of thousands of people."

Wop asked, "Can you kill them all by yourself?"

Coz shook his head: "It's difficult now, but it will be possible later."

He didn't know the reason, but he knew he would become very strong, he just needed time to grow.

Wop: "I don't want to wait that long. I'll help you this time, but only this time. If you want to control this hive, you must rely on yourself."

Koz nodded seriously.

Their conversation, as if no one else was around, left Dorothy dumbfounded. She believed that the wizard Wop could overthrow the Blood Claws, but controlling the hive was completely beyond her comprehension.

If I tell her such a big thing, will she be silenced? If she dies, what will happen to the children?

Wop said to Dorothy, "Take us to the Blood Claw Gang, and he will protect these children from now on."

Dorothy looked at Coates and nodded with difficulty.

She didn't quite trust Cozee to protect the children, but she believed Wop could.

Chapter 12 Blood Claw Gang

"The leader of the Blood Claws is called Sevitarion. He brings his own guards wherever he goes. There are twelve of them, and each one has a laser rifle. Not all stormtroopers have guns, only the core members have guns. As for that wizard, I have never seen him and I don't know who he is."

On the way to the Blood Claw Gang, Dorothy gave a detailed introduction to the Blood Claw Gang.

Wop and Koz both listened very carefully. Although they both looked down on the Blood Claw Gang, they still had to listen because they knew that carelessness could lead to failure.

Apart from the psychic, there is basically no one worth paying attention to in the Blood Claw Gang.

"Sevitarion is yours," said Wop.

Coze hummed, thinking about how to kill Sevitarion quickly.

"stop!"

As they approached the gate of the Blood Claw Gang's territory, the sentry on the guard post discovered them.

"Don't shoot, it's me."

"Ms. Dorothy?" the sentry asked in surprise, recognizing her voice. "Why haven't you been here for several days?"

“Those children need my care,” said Dorothy.

She did not tell the Blood Claw Gang about her illness. She was a teacher for the Blood Claw Gang's children, but being sick in the Bottom Nest was equivalent to death. A sick teacher was worthless.

The sentry asked warily, "Who are those two?"

"They are my adopted children. I want to ask Lord Sevitarion for a job for them."

The sentry laughed. "Ms. Dorothy, have you finally figured it out? That's right. Those kids have been fed and cared for by you. Joining the Blood Claw Gang is the best way to repay you."

Dorothy lowered her head. The reason she lived outside was not only because many of the children were mutants, but also because she didn't want them to be associated with the Blood Claws. This was her personal selfish motive. She knew that survival outside would be more difficult, but she didn't want her adopted children to become like the Blood Claws.

The door of the Blood Claw Gang slowly opened, and Dorothy led Wop and the others deeper into the building.

Several members of the Blood Claw Gang followed them, all of them relaxed, following them as a matter of routine.

It was not difficult to see from their respectful attitude that Dorothy had a high status as a teacher. They had a smooth journey and no one stopped them to question them.

Dorothy came to the door of the Blood Claw Gang leader and said to the two guards at the door, "I want to see Master Sevitarion."
