Chapter 280: Quack! This Is Part of the Plan! (4K Words)
Shortly after the two fallen angels left.
Watching the direction where the two left, Otto sighed first, then calmly lay on the back of the chair and sorted out his thoughts silently.
After all, according to those people, the singularity laboratory built in the dark technology era is likely to be the key to bringing the alliance into the real universe.
If this is true, then perhaps there is no need to wait until the ether ring is built to bring the alliance's fleet back from the void, but is this really that easy?
At this moment, he heard a burst of brisk footsteps in his ears, and as the afterglow fluttered, he saw a white figure quickly coming to his side.
"Master, do you think what they said is true?"
The person who spoke was Huifeng, and the other party's upper body leaned forward slightly, looking expectant. Obviously, she was interested in what the fallen angels said.
Otto did not express his opinion on this question immediately. After a while, he stood up silently and then moved his eyes from the girl to the huge holographic command platform in front of him.
"I have informed Clara that the other party has activated a backup body and is currently rushing to the alert planet. We will know when the time comes."
Through the real-time monitoring of detectors scattered throughout the planetary orbit, the actual situation of the entire continent has been more accurately displayed on the huge holographic platform.
The occupied areas of each force are represented by diamond blocks of different colors, and their troops are displayed on the screen as chess pieces of various shapes. Looking down, it looks like a large-scale war chess game.
In fact, in addition to allowing commanders to observe the battlefield situation more clearly, by specifying coordinates for the troops, commanders can indeed micro-manipulate the battlefield to a certain extent. I think a certain transport captain back then would like this thing very much.
Now, according to the intelligence in the battlefield situation map, a Dark Angels regiment is approaching the target quickly near the Vorion sandstorm vortex area. Obviously, these crazy guys have received news about the fallen angels.
For this group of stubborn Astartes, negotiation is meaningless. After all, in order to cover up the secret of the Fallen Angels, these guys even wanted to blow up Guilliman who came to provide them with support.
Once they are allowed to enter the Volian area, in order to destroy the evidence of the Fallen Angels, these green-skinned tough guys will inevitably carry out a scraping-the-ground cleanup of the local area. By then, even the earthworms underground will be cut in half vertically, and how could the Void Claw device be spared in this process?
Therefore, he needs to find a way to stop the Dark Angels team at the moment
After thinking carefully about the screen in front of him for a moment, Otto immediately selected a white chess piece that was moving rapidly near the hive with his finger, and then the details of the unit were displayed on the huge holographic screen.
[Unit name: Uriel Squad]
[Function: Vanguard]
[Number of people: 7 people]
[Current mission: monitor the actions of the Ash Angels and eliminate the Chaos forces inside the hive. 】
Uriel.
If I remember correctly, the opponent's power armor is covered with a gray nano coating, which can change its appearance in a short time.
While thinking, an interesting idea gradually emerged in Otto's mind
If he could surprise the Dark Angels to find that there were fallen angels everywhere in the battlefield of this alert star and the leading man called himself Sefer, then perhaps these annoying guys would no longer focus all their attention on the Volian area, and he would have more energy to study the strange device.
So under his order, it didn't take long for a sorted mission briefing to be transmitted to Uriel's personal terminal.
Shortly after this order was issued.
[Currently, a new hostile force unit has been eliminated, and the deterrence points have increased. 】
As new reminders popped up on the panel, Otto could not help but look at the plane of the holographic command desk again. He saw that in the surrounding area of Huangquan No. 8 node on the north side of the continent, a block originally marked as brown and controlled by the gene stealer sect [Prince of the Poor] has now changed color.
That was the landing area that Otto had designated for the Alliance's synthetic corps not long ago. At this moment, a large number of gray-white chess pieces were gathering in it, which meant that the Alliance's troops had completed the occupation of the local area.
Since there are a lot of black stones under the ground of Huangquan No. 8, once it is destroyed, the Nakmond Corridor will really be at risk of being closed. For Otto, this is not the result he wants to see, so in order to avoid a rollover.
As early as when the Alliance first arrived at the Alert Star, a vanguard consisting of 110,000 gene clone soldiers, 900 tanks and armored units was sent here by Otto.
According to the subsequent reports, with the cooperation of warships and Banshees, the Alliance troops obviously caught the Genestealers off guard and easily captured the designated positions. This small-scale battle also brought Otto 2 deterrence points.
Although it sounds pitiful, you should know that similar situations happen every minute on the Vigilant Star. As long as you stay long enough, this is obviously a good place to brush points.
After briefly analyzing the current battlefield situation and confirming the terrain near the landing point with the Banshee's reconnaissance, Otto issued such instructions to the clone officers waiting for instructions on the other side of the holographic screen.
"Order the tank troops to advance quickly toward the northwest, and the infantry and Gloria will be responsible for occupying and setting up defensive positions along the way. As long as the speed is fast enough, we can completely establish an encirclement that can lock down the suburban areas before the poor princes react, just like what the Germans did when they blitzed France."
"If we can eliminate the main offensive force of the Gene Stealers here, then Huangquan No. 8 will be safe for a short time."
Not long after, watching the chess pieces on the command desk begin to follow the offensive route drawn by themselves, like a sickle, deeply piercing into the hinterland of the war zone, if it weren't for the first-person perspective of the battlefield displayed on the secondary screen next to him, he could have witnessed the real scene of soldiers charging under the cover of artillery fire, and tanks and artillery fighting each other. For a moment, Otto really had an illusion that he was playing a game.

A moment later, just as Otto was about to take the opportunity to observe the battle situation in other areas to decide how to proceed with the next move.
"By the way, Master, do you think this thing can still be used?"
Hearing the voice, I saw that Huifeng was holding the [Hymn Rune] tightly with both hands and placed it in front of his chest, imitating the hymn girls and making a prayer gesture, which inevitably caused Otto to complain.
"Whether that thing is useful or not, it is impossible for you to have any effect."
For such an evaluation, Huifeng looked full of doubts.
"Why?"
The confused look on his face made Otto not know what to say for a while.
"Because I am very sure you don't have that function. This is a hardware problem."
Even if the way that the citizens of the Alliance use the hymn crystal to guide the energy of the virtual world into the body to breed new life is full of metaphysics, it does not mean that it will have an effect on a machine, although strictly speaking, the built-in artificial organ is not actually a big problem
Hearing this, the girl's eyes flashed a trace of loss, and she seemed a little unhappy.
"Then why do you think this thing appears here?"
As the voice fell, Gray Wind handed the dim crystal creation into Otto's hand. The moment he touched the thing, a chilling touch was transmitted through his fingertips.
At the same time, he could feel something being pulled out of his body. Although the feeling was very weak, it was unusually clear. At the same time, the originally dim crystal seemed to faintly glow.
After carefully observing for a while, he temporarily ignored this strange phenomenon because he did not notice any obvious abnormality.
"I guess those people should have tried to see if the newborns born in this strange universe would be rejected."
When thinking of this, Otto couldn't help but have another question in his mind.
Since the crystal can guide the energy in the virtual world, but the virtual world in the Warhammer universe is the subspace, then can it really work?
Guide the chaotic power of the subspace into the body? Just thinking about it is scary.
God knows what kind of strange thing will be born by using the chaotic power of the subspace to breed life.
I'm afraid that a monster with two heads will emerge and scream the moment it lands.
——Quack! This is part of the plan!
However, this question did arouse Otto's curiosity.
"I will hand it over to William later, maybe it can help his ongoing research."
"If everything goes well, maybe we can use this rune to breed a new [Hymn Girl], or some more powerful modified creature, so as to strengthen the genes of the clone army."
Since learning from Clara that the [Rectification Protocol] may have awakened, Otto ordered the alliance to strengthen its research on the genetic level, and at the same time carried out a large-scale expansion of the existing cloning chamber.
To date, a total of 100,000 high-performance cloning pods and corresponding genetic modification devices have been installed in the Grey Goo mothership built by Grey Wind alone. The reason for doing this is to prepare for the [Second Iron Man War] that may come again at any time. After all, Su Zheng possesses the special ability to disrupt electronic units.
At the same time, under Otto's order, Clara, the chief scientific officer of the alliance, supervised the manufacture of the [Anthem-class battleship] while studying the firewall that could further resist the erosion of the righteousness according to the existing data.
Grey Wind wanted to say something else, but suddenly seemed to be attracted by something. He slowly closed his eyes and remained silent for about a minute, then reported in a calm tone.
"Master, Val just sent a communication, claiming that they have transported the target to the agreed target location, and the undead overlord is very happy to cooperate with us."
Hearing this, Otto couldn't help but stop his actions
The undead overlord mentioned by Grey Wind refers to Taraxin, who is known as a Pokémon collector. In order to obtain a precious collection in the hands of the other party, Otto instructed Val to use his orc clan to lure the innocent titanium men and women on Omispelon.
Then they took advantage of the chaos to dig up the tomb of another dead dynasty and stole the wife of the ruler of that dynasty. Afterwards, Val and his men completely put the blame on all the orcs.
Although the Warhammer Galaxy is cold and ruthless, when Otto heard that the princess had indeed fallen into the clutches of Trazyn, he still felt a little uncomfortable. Then he heard Grey Wind continue to speak.
"In addition, the dead overlord claimed that he had a collection that he was extremely eager to get and hoped to entrust it to the Alliance."
Tsk, does this guy think that the Alliance is some kind of professional team.
"I declare in advance that we are not shameless tomb robbers. Everything we do is with a mission."
However, before Otto finished speaking, Grey Wind continued to speak.
"The other party claimed that he was willing to exchange twenty collections."
Twenty pieces?
When Otto heard this number, he obviously hesitated for a moment. He was a little curious about what kind of thing was worthy of such an offer.
"Tell me about it?"
"The Necron Overlord wants to know if we can bring the Emperor of Humanity out of that palace, preferably with the entire throne room."
For a moment, Otto thought there was something wrong with his ears.
Kidnapping the Emperor? You'd better ask someone else.
Just when Otto wanted to say something else, a communication from the Alliance Fleet suddenly caught his attention.
As the message was connected, a clone captain appeared on the other side of the screen.
"My Lord, our sensors have detected that a Chaos main fleet has appeared in the galaxy. At present, the enemy has destroyed the Imperial defense site near Mandeville Point. The enemy fleet is very large, with a total of nearly one thousand. The Calgar Chapter Captain hopes to get reinforcements from the Alliance."
"Should we respond?"
What?
How much did you just say?
