Chapter 736 Navy Holiday

[Do you think the Emperor realizes that every action he takes now is most likely a wrong choice made under the covert influence of the Lord of Darkness? 】

"He must know this."

【so what? Is there any way he can ensure his consciousness? 】

"I definitely don't know this."

【? 】

"He didn't tell me."

"Besides, even if there is, he probably won't tell you. Morgan: You can't steal the emperor's advice and then deal with those guys behind you. I advise you to die early. This is my heart,"

#Avalon-style swear words#

——————

Frankly speaking, the meeting between Morgan and Malcador did not go smoothly: within the two hours that the Sigil Master quietly squeezed out while the Emperor and Horus were having their rare father-son talk, they Fourteen topics of common concern, as well as nine cooperative projects that each of us were willing to cooperate with, led to an extensive but superficial conversation.

But it is a pity that in the end, peace was truly achieved with only two items.

The first item is that the Spider Queen chose to continue a private treaty between her and Malcador that had been signed for decades: the Far Eastern Frontier promised not to expand to the center of the galaxy, in exchange for Malcador continuing to help her suppress the people from Regarding the dissent from Terra's side, and the voices of opposition.

The most important point in this treaty revolves around the mysterious Triple Forge World: this powerful force that once disobeyed Morgan was adopted by the Spider Queen as her own during a disciplinary action when the Raven Lord Corax just returned. His private domain and production center have since disappeared from the galaxy.

Galadia, Farr, and Thule, the three forging worlds, were quietly wiped off the list of Mars. Their productivity was so powerful that they could fully support a long war across the galaxy. In the half century that she has been under the control of the Spider Queen, she has no idea how rich her fortune has been.

At the same time, the Titan Legion, the powerful Victory Legion, originally owned by these three worlds, has also undergone several structural reorganizations and redistributions, and has become the main force of the Queen's Hand Titan Legion under Morgan: a man who could have Names comparable to those of great worlds such as Reza, Underworld No. 8, or Shana, were just quietly dissipated into the never-ending belly bag of the Lord of Avalon.

Even the Avalonians themselves are not very clear about these things: even Morgan's most trusted mortal advisor has only vaguely heard that in addition to her most powerful casting ally Reza, the Spider Queen also has A mechanical territory that was particularly obedient to her.

But no one would have thought that it was an industrial furnace that could be compared to the powerful Reza, and all their production capacity was exclusive to the Spider Queen.

On this alone, Malcador could bet his soul on it. Guilliman will never be as threatening as Morgan.

But despite this, he is still willing to sign a peace treaty with the Spider Queen and take the initiative to help her suppress the voice from Mars: The Forge General and his followers always want to know what happened in the Triple Forge World, but unfortunately, In the silence shared by Holy Terra and Avalon, Mars' exploration fleet was often unable to break through Reza's defenses, let alone penetrate deep into the hinterland of Avalon.

At the same time, General Foundry has also been trying to figure out why their opponents were always informed of their large-scale sabotage operations against Yureza in advance: and the leakage of these rumors was included in the peace treaty as one of the terms. Those who hold the seal will naturally keep their mouths shut forever.

After all, Holy Terra is happy to see the two heroes of Mars and Reza coexisting: the rebellious psychology of the current Forge General is no secret in the High Lords Council, if it weren't for the fact that there are too many of his supporters, and the Emperor If Huang had made an appointment with Mars earlier, Palm Palmer and the others would have considered replacing him.

Therefore, when it comes to restraining Mars, an increasingly unruly [ally], Terra, Avalon and Reza are on the same front: and with such comrades-in-arms, the Printer can take the opportunity to promote his second proposal. .

This one is much more difficult.

According to the agreement, Morgan promised to keep an eye out for traces of the Wolf Shepherd in the subspace for Malcador in the coming days: this is not a mandatory task. After all, even a powerful psyker like the Spider Queen, There are also few opportunities to carefully identify the abnormalities in the soul of another Primarch.

It’s not like everyone named Prospero’s Magnus is stupid enough to open a free visitor center in his own soul.

Although the Sealmaster paid a very painful price for this deal: a large number of cutting-edge technologies that even the High Lords Council of Mars and Terra did not know about, he only received a vague promise from the Spider Queen. And a soul contract signed with both parties' names.

However, despite this, Malcador didn't say much. He was not one of those laymen who didn't understand subspace. He knew how outrageous the mission Morgan took on was: to explore and contact a possible chaos god in subspace. Any clues about it?

To be honest, if Morgan hadn't already been burdened with debts in this regard, she would never have accepted this death-related commission.

At the same time, the rewards given by the palm-printers are attractive enough.

In the [Technology Patent Sharing Catalog] that is enough to fill a whole sheet of paper, the Spider Queen is most interested in the technology blueprints and data information left behind when the Lord of Humanity built the Emperor's Fantasy. Although most of them are outdated, they are still priceless treasures that are enough to drive people crazy.

With these data and experience, Morgan has the confidence to carry out a comprehensive renovation and improvement of the three Queen of Glory-class battleships in her hands: including the Dawn Goddess originally owned by the Dawnbreaker Legion; the Star Weeping, which was captured in the Third Randan War and originally belonged to the 11th Legion, and the Human Glory, which was [fortunately] named by the Lord of Humanity himself.

Let alone other things, the Dawn Goddess is the de facto capital of the Far East Frontier. Although its size is already very large: the length of 33 kilometers ranks first among sister ships, and is even nearly a quarter longer than the second place, the 26-kilometer Macragge Glory.

However, when it needs to take on the administrative work of the entire huge country, such a huge size is no longer enough, and Morgan is unwilling to reduce the quality of life of those who live on the Aurora, her most loyal group of followers: then the only way is to expand the size of the Glory Queen again.

But this time, even Riza, who obeys the Spider Queen in everything, has to painfully express that she is powerless: the size of naval warships has its limits, and the existing technology of the Primarch and the Forge World can no longer allow the Aurora to maintain a larger size.

But it doesn't matter, now she has the technology from the Emperor. You know, the Emperor's Dream, which belongs to the Lord of Mankind, is clearly claimed to have a continental plate-level size, which is much more exaggerated than the Queen of Glory, and is not inferior to the legendary Mountain Phalanx.

As for using these technologies, will it arouse the Emperor's wrath...

What is there to be afraid of?

Anyway, the first person responsible is Malcador.

Moreover, without the Emperor's tacit approval, the Sigillite would never dare to take out these things.

(Yes, although there is very little information about the Emperor's Vision, there is no doubt that it is a very large warship. Even just approaching the planet's low-Earth orbit is enough to cause global geological disasters: this is a complete description of the planet.)

With some of the technology used by the Emperor when he built the Emperor's Vision, Morgan has the confidence to extend the length of the Aurora to at least 40 kilometers, or even more. As for the other two Queens of Glory in her hands, they can naturally become behemoths of more than 30 kilometers.

It seems that Riza's shipyard will start to work day and night again: As for the reward this time? Picking some less critical technologies from the Omnissiah should be able to satisfy Riza's not-so-big appetite.

At worst, let Morgan go to Omnissiah himself, sign his name on these technical blueprints, and write a few more words of affirmation and encouragement for Riza: It is said that the current Riza Forging General, who has a close personal relationship with the Spider Queen, is currently facing the problem of replacing the old power system internally, and these gifts should help her to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

The transformation of three Glory Queens?

So far, it is just a small matter.

That's right, the Spider Queen now has three Glory Queens and a huge fleet to match them: the void power of the Dawnbreaker Legion is completely comparable to the Dark Angels Legion at its peak, and the [Naval Battle] of the Sons of Morgan is their most unknown overwhelming advantage to outsiders.

As for the Star's Wail and the Glory of Mankind, although their appearance rate in foreign wars is very low, these two warships are not secret decisive weapons: at least the Emperor and Malcador have long known about their existence.

The predecessor of the Star Cry was the beast command, the flagship of the 11th Legion. After the forgotten war, it became a trophy of Morgan and the Dawnbreakers. Although the Primarch liked its previous name very much, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was modified and renamed at the suggestion of Riza.

The name Star Cry came from the collective petition of the Dawnbreakers: although it was never mentioned in the merit book, every generation of Morgan's sons would know through word of mouth from their predecessors and superiors that they had experienced several bloody and great wars in the darkness in the northwest of the galaxy, and countless brave fighting brothers died there silently, and their achievements and bravery were destined not to be recognized.

From then on, the name Star Cry represented the remembrance of these unsung heroes.

As for the Glory of Humanity, it was the product of a major construction plan: in order to prove the unbreakable nature of their alliance, the three Far Eastern kings had a dream linkage, that is, to jointly build three more Glory Queen-class battleships, and then each participating legion would get one.

Nostramo provided the raw materials, Macragge provided the start-up funds, and Morgan was responsible for contacting all parties and providing the necessary shipyards: the three Glory Queen-class battleships soon joined the combat sequence of each legion, and Morgan soon received the Emperor's personal name.

At the same time, her two brothers encountered similar problems: Conrad eventually named his battleship the Dawn, while Guilliman's side was a little more complicated, and the naming process of his battleship took decades of twists and turns.

According to the Lord Macragge's own selfishness, he actually wanted to name this battleship the Lady Euton, or to commemorate his adoptive father Connor, but his superb political literacy eventually suppressed this personal sentiment.

So, he planned to use this battleship to praise the unity of the Five Hundred Worlds, in contrast to the Glory of Macragge: for example, the Glory of the Five Hundred Worlds, or simply the Unbreakable Union?

It is said that the latter name made Midnight Haunter burst out laughing on the spot.

After decades of twists and turns, after a wide range of opinions were adopted, this battleship, whose keel was laid at the Calth Shipyard, finally got its own name: the Primarch named it the Fearless, while others preferred its abbreviation, the Fearless.

So far, the Fearless has become the seventh Queen of Glory-class battleship in service under the behemoth of the Far Eastern Three Kingdoms: and as of the Nikaea Conference, the total number of Queen of Glory-class battleships active in the entire galaxy is only 24.

(Except for the sixteen Astartes Legions in the three Far Eastern countries, each of them only had one Queen of Glory-class battleship. The First Legion originally had three, but two were destroyed by Randan. In addition, the Imperial Navy had an additional Amphion)

A ratio of nearly one-third is already an exaggerated number: In fact, in many cases, the Sigillite has to believe in the so-called Far Eastern threat theory, because no matter from which angle, the military power controlled by the three siblings alliance is too outrageous, far exceeding their rigid needs.

In addition to preparing for a rebellion that swept the galaxy, there seems to be no reason to explain all this.

After all, don't forget that in addition to the Queen of Glory, which accounts for one-third of the total, the Ultramarines and the Dawnbreakers also have the first and second largest naval fleets among all the Astartes Legions: the title of the strongest fleet of the Imperial Fists is more supported by the omnipotent Phalanx. The fleet under Dorn is actually far smaller than the two kings of the Far East.

This is not counting the six Blackstone Fortresses in Morgan's hands, which can't take the initiative to attack and are too slow to be used as offensive forces, but if they want to defend key locations, they can be almost unshakable.

No matter how you look at it, it makes people feel uneasy.

So, at the end of this not-so-long private negotiation, an ancient new word slipped out of the mouth of the seal holder.

[Navy holiday? ]

Morgan's eyebrows jumped.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

[I seem to have heard Conrad say: A historical term on Terra? ]

"It's very suitable for you now."

Malcador sat there, like an old monk in meditation, his voice was very light.

"As far as I know: Nostramo's navy has actually reached its peak, right?"

[……]

"At the same time, Guilliman also intends to partially dismantle the war system of the Five Hundred Worlds and switch to a mode of peace-building. He has dismissed some of his redundant troops and old warships, rationally controlled military expenditures, and signed a series of military-to-civilian bills, which have begun to tilt funds towards the civilian sector, right?"

[……]

"You too, Morgan: Avalon's naval construction has also slowed down, right?"

[……]

[Sometimes I'm really curious about where your agents are hiding? ]

"It doesn't matter."

The Sigillite smiled.

"What's important is that, perhaps, we can indeed enter a period of rest, stop the endless expansion of naval power, stop launching so many ships, and give the pace of armament expansion a break: it also conforms to the new era theme of peaceful development after the Great Crusade."

[Do you believe this yourself? 】

"It's not important: go back and have a good talk with your Macragge brother, Morgan."

"He will agree with my point of view."

[...hum...]

The Primarch snorted.

[But you have to sign the treaty yourself. ]

"No problem."

Malcador nodded.

"Same thing: you will also meet your Gene-Father later."

[He has trouble for me again? ]

"Don't be like this, Morgan: this is the last time you can see him before he leaves for the Great Crusade."

[Thank you, Malcador, for telling me this good news. ]

The Primarch grinned.

[So: a new mission? ]

"No."

The Sigillite was strangely silent.

"How should I put it..."

"Morgan."

"What do you think about adopting a biological daughter who is not related to you by blood?"

——————

Ah...

Brothers were caught.

After two days of perseverance, I was finally taken away by Father Nurgle today: after I walked against the wind for half an hour to apply for a residence permit, the loving father finally accepted this desperate behavior with a smile.

Post.

(﹏)

But don't worry, tomorrow will be the last chapter of Nikaea, and then I will seamlessly connect to the next plot, and try to make another big one for everyone before the New Year.
