Chapter 288: Recruiting the World

Chapter 288

The journey back to the conscription world is very long.

After Shi Lan and Fu Qinghai's hard study.

A hodgepodge of tactical dreadnought armor has just been released.

The classic helmet of the Indomitable Terminator, shaped like the head of an ancient canine from Terra.

The Iron Knight Terminator has huge shoulder armor with a built-in atomic shield generator.

The wedge-shaped breastplate of the Hades Terminator is an integrated breastplate that is very similar in shape to the fuselage of the Dreadnought, with a bit of the meaning of inclined armor.

Sloped armor can increase the deflection angle of incoming shells, making it easier to ricochet and thus avoid penetration. It also forms a stronger fold at the joint of the armor, increasing the overall strength of the armor, making it more difficult to collapse and shatter when facing larger caliber shells, similar to the oval turret of Russian tanks.

Assault Terminator, a tactical dreadnought armor designed by Qingshan Khan and exclusively manufactured by Phaeton Foundry World.

Ordinary models of Terminators, even the Iron Cavalry type, only use a platinum frame, and the outer shell is still a ceramic steel and plastic steel composite armor, while the outer shell of the assault type Terminator is a platinum homogeneous armor. The Nyadrazasa reactor has a higher output power and can drive a heavier armor shell.

In addition, the Assault Terminator has larger servo motor systems, thicker electronic muscle fiber bundles, atomic shields and short-range transmission, the basic functions of these tactical dreadnought armor, as well as living metal and perspective goggles.

The long-range weapons are basically copied from the Blue Mountains.

The melee weapon equipped is a power lance.

"ah..."

Fu Qinghai stretched lazily.

The man and the monkey have been in the arsenal for nearly two months and finally came up with this final design plan.

Fu Qinghai looked at the finished product in front of him, feeling quite satisfied, and asked casually:

"Shi Lan, if you stay in the same universe all the time, will you feel bored?"

"A universe? What does that mean?"

The space ape looked confused:

"Are you taking me to the warp?"

Fu Qinghai shook his head:

"No, I mean, other universes... well, those universes that are completely different from the world we live in. There are different races, technologies, cultures, and stories there, and even completely different basic laws of physics."

Shi Lan scratched his head and said:

"That sounds good. I've been kept in captivity by the Zemo family for too long. I really should go out more often. I only recently learned that Choglis' cheese is so delicious."

Fu Qinghai waved his hand and said,

"It's not as simple as Chogli's cheese... Never mind, you'll know when you go and see it."

Of course, reincarnations can assimilate the natives and enter other reincarnation worlds. Fu Qinghai saw dragons from the Game of Thrones universe and trolls from the Lord of the Rings universe in the Marvel comic universe. In essence, there is no difference between humans, dragons, and trolls. They are all living creatures.

However, according to the experience sharing on the reincarnation forum, those senior reincarnationists believe that compared with items and equipment, the cost-effectiveness of assimilating living things is very low, especially intelligent creatures.

First, more points are required to assimilate intelligent creatures. Second, the "gaining control" in the assimilation condition means "obtaining consent" for intelligent creatures. Compared with bloodline enhancement, item equipment is already very unsafe. It is possible to be lost, stolen, or robbed. Intelligent creatures are even more unreliable than item equipment. They will rebel and escape. If there is no absolute control over the intelligent creatures to be assimilated, such as magic contracts and neural implants, the reincarnationists will easily waste money.

Fu Qinghai felt that as a founding member of his scientific research team, Shi Lan should not be so remiss as to simply rest on his laurels.

At this time, the sound of the hatch opening was heard, and a white-haired Space Warrior walked in and said to Fu Qinghai:

"Khan, the mission you assigned to the Third Company has been completed. Please review it."

As he spoke, he handed a data tablet to Fu Qinghai.

Fu Qinghai took it and took a look.

Inside is a paint scheme for a set of power armor: a pure black background with gilded edges, and the round knee armor is decorated with coiled patterns. The left shoulder armor is the chapter emblem, with crossed lightning and skulls, dotted with horns, tornadoes, and cloud patterns. The right shoulder armor is a personal emblem, including the personal emblems of the think tank, pharmacist, technical sergeant, and senior officers.

These coats of arms and decorations are also gold-plated.

"Very good, that's all."

Fu Qinghai nodded approvingly and said:

"From now on, all personnel will change their armor paint."

The Panchang pattern is a geometric pattern with twists and turns, connected from beginning to end, and infinitely repeated. For example, the China Unicom logo is a Panchang pattern.

Fu Qinghai came up with the ideas and creativity, the Third Company came up with the specific design plan, and the art-related work was handed over to the Emperor's Son, and there was indeed no problem.

There was once a saying that after the Great Crusade, the Emperor would treat the Space Marines like he treated the Thunder Marines - when the rabbit is dead, the dog is cooked, and when the bird is dead, the bow is put away. This is also one of the reasons why some Space Marines decided to rebel.

In fact, many Space Marines thought about this problem at the end of the Crusade. There were two common views at the time. One was that even without the Crusade, there would still be rebellions and suppression, and the war would never end. The other was that even if the Space Marines did not go to war, they could still assist the Emperor in governing the country.

Fu Qinghai agrees with the second point.

Space Marines are pure killing machines. This is just a misunderstanding of ordinary people. In fact, Ultramarines can be managers, Imperial Fists can be architects, and the Emperor's Children can be artists...

However, after the birth of Slaanesh, it is often more dangerous to engage in art. The real world likes to promote complete commitment and ultimate dedication to art, but this extreme artistic thought is almost equivalent to believing in Slaanesh in the Warhammer 40K universe.

Fu Qinghai was sure that the Emperor did not want Space Marines to become a military aristocracy or a warrior caste, but he did not know whether he planned to "dispose of" all the Space Marines after the expedition.

After dealing with these trivial matters, Fu Qinghai convened a meeting of reincarnations.

War meeting room.

Fu Qinghai looked around and asked:

"Has anyone among you bought the Eye of Prophecy? Do you know when the new cycle will begin?"

Lin Yu: "What is the Eye of Prophecy?"

Tristan: "Same question."

Camille shrugged and said:

"The Eye of Prophecy is so expensive, I can't afford it, so I can only be prepared at all times."

Seeing this, Fu Qinghai could only explain to the two reincarnation newbies what the "Eye of Prophecy" is - a reincarnation prop that can predict in advance the end time of reincarnation and what universe the next reincarnation world will be in.

Camille asked,

"Qingshan, you are so rich now, why don't you use the Eye of Prophecy?"

Fu Qinghai said:

"Because in the next reincarnation I will meet up with my other teammates in the main Marvel universe, so what universe the next reincarnation world is has nothing to do with me."

Fu Qinghai asked this question just because he wanted to know when the new cycle would begin so that he could prepare in advance.

"Speaking of this."

Fu Qinghai said seriously,

"None of you have joined the Samsara Club, so why don't you all join my club? You can take care of each other and it will be convenient for everyone to gather together. What do you think?"

Lin Yu: "Okay, okay."

Tristan: "Yeah...okay."

Camille didn't say anything. He and No. 56 had agreed to join Fu Qinghai's club a long time ago.

"That's it, meeting adjourned."

…

Marquez Wang Xingqu.

Kuitun Death World.

A medium-sized fleet is in orbit.

Fu Qinghai soon understood why this place was marked as a death world by the human empire's expedition fleet.

Kuitun has three satellites.

What is the concept of this?

The biggest impact of the moon on the earth is the tides.

The moon's gravity not only affects the ocean (tides), but also the atmosphere (atmospheric tides). Since ancient times, humans have known how to judge climate changes by the phases of the moon. The moon is closely related to many natural phenomena on Earth.

And Kuitun has three moons.

The entire atmosphere is filled with strong storms, accompanied by various climate disasters, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, typhoons... At the same time, the continental plates are changing violently, and geological disasters are also frequent, such as volcanoes, earthquakes, sinkholes...

This is a death world discovered by a White Scars detachment, so it was given a Khorchin name - Kuitun, which means "extremely cold". In fact, Kuitun is not cold at all. Due to the numerous volcanoes, it has rich geothermal resources and natural hot springs everywhere.

In this death world, humans have lived for a long time at the planet's North and South Poles. It is extremely cold here all year round, but the plate movement is not violent. Fu Qinghai speculated that this might be the reason why the planet was named "Extremely Cold".

The Thunderhawk gunship staggered through the strong wind and heavy rain, and finally arrived at the ice-covered polar region.

The huge size and noise of the gunboat soon attracted many tribal residents, who slowly surrounded it with harpoons and stone axes in hand, looking vigilantly at the Space Marines who landed one after another.

After the Space Marines formed a simple guard formation, Fu Qinghai walked down from the gunboat leisurely. He swept his eyes over the tribesmen in front of him, and even saw an Imperial-style automatic rifle in their hands. However, the foundry master could tell at a glance that this poorly maintained gun had been severely rusted and could not be used, and holding it in his arms was just a bluff.

"Empire, is it the Empire?"

A skinny, dark-skinned old man walked out of the crowd, and the surrounding tribesmen automatically made way for him. Fu Qinghai listened to his strangely pronounced low Gothic language and asked,

"Hello, I am the Chapter Master of the Iron Pagoda Chapter of the Astartes Adeptus Astartes. Are you the leader here?"

"Sorry, sir, I have forgotten many of the words in Low Gothic. I... I don't quite understand what you mean, but I remember... Astartes, Giants, Battleships... and the Empire."

the old man stammered.

Fu Qinghai probably understood.

He took off his helmet, revealing his face, approached this group of ragged but extremely strong primitive tribesmen, and began to communicate with them patiently.

Through conversations with local residents and combined with relevant information from the Ministry of Military Affairs, Fu Qinghai learned that

in the distant past, due to the long night of blockade, Kuitun's human civilization had degenerated to the stage of primitive tribes. After the White Scar Fleet discovered this planet, in accordance with the practice during the Great Expedition, it was named "46-15" - the 15th planet discovered by the 46th Expedition Fleet, and provided the local primitive tribal residents with some tools: automatic guns, lighters, water purification tablets and the like.

The old man slowly told Fu Qinghai the vague history of more than 50 years ago based on his memory:

One day, a meteor streaked across the sky, passing through impossible storms and lava, and then a mysterious alien visitor arrived.

The aliens told the tribesmen of Kuitun that they were not the only "humans" - they were the ones who taught them the word "human". There were other humans living in different worlds. Although there were places like Kuitun, most worlds had tall and complex giant houses called "nests", as well as some special houses used to build things that carried aliens between different worlds. These were all new and strange things that the old man had never heard of.

However, not all worlds are inhabited by humans, and not all human worlds welcome outsiders. The aliens claim to be from the "Empire" - a huge collective that is committed to uniting all humans once again and sweeping away all worlds in the galaxy that attempt to hinder human prosperity and expansion. This is their destiny and the only choice that the tribesmen must accept.

The expedition fleet did not stay in this death world for long and soon set off again. However, they shared a lot of knowledge with the local tribes and helped them unite as much as possible - from multiple small tribes to one large tribe to facilitate the subsequent management and rule of the imperial administrative department.

Then, as we all know, the Horus Heresy broke out, and the entire empire was in chaos. The "Imperial Messenger" that the tribal residents had been expecting never came, until now.

For the local primitive tribes, the "Empire" left a good impression on them. In their hearts, the Empire was a kind person who gave them many gifts for free, taught them to write, and helped them unite.

For Fu Qinghai, he didn't care what the local residents thought of the empire - their opinions could not change anything. Fu Qinghai only cared whether the people here were as described in the information of the expedition fleet: having experienced the hardships and baptisms of a cruel environment, they were tenacious, brave and good at fighting.

So, after a period of understanding and investigation, Fu Qinghai announced to all the tribal residents:

"I, Qingshan Khan, am the envoy of the empire. I am the one who will bring you development and prosperity. From now on, this land will belong to my regiment!"

No matter whether they can understand or not.

Then he turned to Lin Yu and said:

"Let Xia Long notify the Phaeton Foundry World to send a Goliath-class foundry ship here to help the local residents build some necessary facilities and expand their living space and population. In addition, the fortress monastery of the regiment... is located on the third satellite."

"OK."

Lin Yu agreed.

"Leave a Thunderhawk gunship and some Space Marines here to thoroughly scout and explore this planet. From now on, this will be the home planet and recruitment world for our regiment."

Fu Qinghai continued to give instructions.

"Roger that, Khan."

Many chapters will maintain the original and backward appearance of the conscription world, such as the White Scars and the Space Wolves, but Fu Qinghai does not fully agree with this practice. The tax-free quota of the conscription world is very precious. He wants to bring development and prosperity to Kuitun, as well as knowledge and education to the people here.

A great man once said:

"An army without culture is a stupid army, and a stupid army cannot defeat the enemy."

The civilized spirit is as important as the savage physique. Fu Qinghai has recognized the savage physique of the residents of the Death World. They have been fighting against extremely cruel natural disasters for thousands of years. The special environment of low oxygen and high gravity has also made them as strong as the Ogryns.

As for their backward knowledge level, there is no such concern after the transformation. With the nearly infinite lifespan of the Space Marines and the rapid learning ability of the Brain of MODOK, there is no knowledge that cannot be supplemented.

The fleet left.

The news of the aliens' reappearance has quickly spread throughout the tribes of the entire planet. The local residents are panicking with inexplicable expectations, looking forward to what changes these armored giants will bring to the world.

Little do people know that in the near future, Kuitun, the only inhabited death world in the entire Marcus Wang Star Region, will be associated with the name of the Iron Pagoda Regiment and resound throughout the galaxy.
