Chapter 499 The Current Situation of the Empire and the Legion "Similar to Psychic Power"

Soon after, the assembly area in front of the seventeenth space gate;

"Members of the 1st Company of the Thousand Sons, please prepare to cross the space gate."

"The joint reconnaissance force has completed the preliminary reconnaissance. Please ask the transportation team of the engineering department to prepare for the construction of the front-line base."

"Agents of the investigation department, go to the designated location immediately after the inspection."

"All units."

The assembly area was filled with a busy and tense atmosphere. The broadcasting system kept issuing instructions and reminders, and the voice was loud and clear.

As the instructions gradually expanded, the huge team of more than 40,000 people in the entire assembly area was preparing in an extremely orderly rhythm.

Most of them shuttled among the crowd, and the logos of their respective units flashed on different clothes and equipment to facilitate verification by intelligent auxiliary units.

The vehicles on the ground and in the air, like several metal rivers, converged into a magnificent scene.

The special teams, engineering teams and reconnaissance teams of various departments, plus a group of Thousand Sons equipped with titanium armor, and other units were ready and eager to wait for the next order.

The faces of the soldiers and staff who unfolded their helmets and masks all showed "yearning", "expectation" and "excitement" as they wanted to cross the space gate and "go on the expedition".

But it was also true that the last time the Emperor opened the space gate was five years ago.

Since the space gates to the universes numbered "13" (Trench Crusaders), "14" (Galaxy Fleet), "15" (Alien) and "16" (Red Alert) were opened at the same time, and after encountering chaos attacks everywhere, the Empire has focused on stable development.

Although the five years of development are not long, they have laid a solid foundation for the "revitalization" and steady expansion of the Empire.

Today's Empire is in an extremely strong stage.

The surge in population has become the most intuitive manifestation.

The birth rate of the Empire has broken historical records every year.

Now, the total population of the Empire is close to 910 billion, and this number seems to be only "one step" away from the trillion mark.

But compared with the human empire in "Warhammer 40k", the scale of 910 billion is still insignificant.

After all, that empire has hundreds of millions, even tens of billions, or even more casualties every day.

The huge war losses and casualties almost made the grassroots soldiers and residents there numb, as if they were fighting all the time.

This is why many humans easily fall into chaos and try to obtain true "happiness" and "freedom".

However, the growth and accumulation of the main universe empire has become extremely powerful compared to the civilizations in other universes.

Especially in front of other races in the "Halo" and "Starship Fleet" universes, the rise of the main universe empire has undoubtedly brought an irresistible pressure.

In the eyes of those alien races, the empire is no longer a simple existence-

but an unbeatable hunter, and a well-equipped, secretive hunter wearing heavy armor and holding a gun with auxiliary aiming, ready to meet any challenge at any time.

Overall, the size of the Main Universe Empire is not as large as the Human Empire in Warhammer 40k, but its endless power is quietly shocking every enemy in different universes and in the subspace.

As for the various changes, they seem to remind every citizen of the Empire that the future of the Main Universe Empire is full of infinite possibilities.

And the size of each legion is also growing steadily with the continuous expansion of the Empire.

Take the Second Legion, the Blood Angels, as an example. When the Primarch Sanguinius received the Emperor's order and led the elite of the legion to the "One Four" (Starship Fleet) universe to prepare for the unified war, the legion's adult Astartes were "only" about 30,000.

And the number of auxiliary troops who have been injected with Inquis serum and have physical fitness far exceeding that of ordinary people is about 6 million.

Including many auxiliary units related to ground staff, logistics, technology, and even cooking, the total number of the Blood Angels Legion is about 14 million to 16 million.

Add to that the clone soldiers, biological and mechanical weapons with the attribute of "elite cannon fodder", and the "number" of the legion will only be greater.

Such a large army size makes the Blood Angels occupy an important position in the entire empire.

But despite this, the Blood Angels still face a severe challenge -

At that time, most of their adult Astartes were recruits who had just completed transformation surgery.

Although these recruits are as strong as or even stronger than the Primaris Astartes in "Warhammer 40k" in terms of strength, speed, reaction, etc., they lack experience in actual combat.

Compared with these recruits, those "veterans" who have experienced hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years of battle baptism undoubtedly have an absolute advantage.

For example, the 2nd Company of the Sons of Man, which has been fighting against the remnants of the Star Alliance for a long time and has dealt with a small-scale Flood outbreak, is already a "veteran" of the Main Universe Empire.

However, when New Argo encountered the invasion of the Emperor's Children, apart from external factors such as the sudden incident and insufficient preparation, the veterans of the Emperor's Children still "beat up" the 2nd Company of the Sons of Man in the overall situation.

Even a leader like the team champion, who could win in a one-on-many situation, would still die tragically at the hands of Lucius, the Chosen One of Slaanesh.

The experienced, calm and calm veterans can make up for the lack of "data" with rich actual combat experience on the battlefield.

If the emperor's son of the emperor who invaded the new Algo, the recruits of the Holy Blood Angel would also suffer a heavy blow.

Because of this, the level of combat effectiveness depends not only on the so -called data, but also the same is important for experience and mentality, and this is also a place where recruits need to be sharpened.

Now?

The current Holy Blood Angel Corps, after five years of "long" unified war, is almost completely "eaten" the "one or four" universe with a total of 1/3 of the empire.

During this unified war, the Holy Blood Angels did not have the rush to expand, but instead adhering to a steady strategy.

Although in a short period of time, they successfully disintegrated the regime and fleet of the United Citizen Federation and destroyed a large number of military facilities, but their focus has always been placed on the ideological transformation and long -term stable development of the occupation zone.

Under such a strategic layout, the Holy Blood Angel Corps not only successfully "raised war with war", but also avoided the problem of depletion of supplies, continuous supply, and insufficient sources of recruits.

More importantly, the pharmacist and technical team following the Corps operations can perform genetic seeds on the shipping and test adapter on the ship and the adaptors who have screened and tested.

This "sustainable development" model that can be self -sufficient has greatly guaranteed the supplementary and combat power improvement of the soldiers of the Holy Blood Angel Army.

At the same time, the Legion did not ignore external pressure and potential threats.

Those resistance organizations that are still stubborn and supported by the capital of the old system, and various alien civilizations, including Alachiaga, not only successfully clear a large number of threats, but also cleverly transformed these forces into recruits into recruits. "Experience package".

Although recruits may not be as good as veterans in combat effectiveness, they have accumulated a lot of actual combat experience through confrontation with various enemies and aliens, and have become precious resources in the future combat of the Holy Blood Angel Legion.

The current Holy Blood Angel is no longer the same as before.

And the size of the legion has expanded sharply, and the number of adult Astart has increased from the initial 30,000 to more than 47,000.

According to the existing growth rate, it is expected that it is expected that this number will exceed the scale of 50,000 and become a more powerful force.

Of course, compared to the Extreme Warrior Corps, the expansion of the Holy Blood Angel seems a bit "slow".

The total number of Astart of the entire empire has been stabilized at the scale of two million. This huge number also represents the great advantage of the empire's military power.

You must know that the resources and administrative system of the Lord Universe Empire have long surpassed the imagination of conventional cosmic civilization, and fully have the ability to support all legions and even more scale.

After all, the administrative system of the Lord Universe Empire is not bloated, but extremely efficient.

In addition, the decisions and management headed by the emperor and the primary as the primary, so even if the empire increases the number of legions to three times, it is fully able to bear it without any worries.

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!

However, the five -year "cultivation" period made each army feel anxious.

For veterans, they long for more war and glory, and hope to continue to prove their value in the battle;

The recruits have more blood and passion, and are eager to use a smoke to pervade their ability to refine their ability to prove that they are worthy of the love of the Emperor, the original and the empire.

Because of this, with the movement of time, the intermittent period of the war gradually stretched, and many legions felt "itchy and unbearable." The horn of their desire to fight again, and they longed for the impulse to contribute their own strength to the expansion of the empire.

This is why the son of thousands of sores will appear in the assembly area of ​​the seventeenth space gate.

When the Emperor [foreseeable], when there was a large -scale invasion of the Empire's territory, he ordered Magnus to send various teams of the sons of the sores to go to different universes and assist each legion to deal with them in advance.

But the son of thousands of sores is almost "led away" -

Either there is no chaotic invasion in the universe at all, or when the son of the thousands of sores arrives, the battle has ended and ended.

Therefore, the preliminary integration of the "One Seven" universe this time was handed over to the son of the soreness.

If the human and alien forces over there are radiating the entire Milky Way, Magnus will lead the main force of the Legion and be responsible for the entire unified war.

Unless it encounters a strong barrier, other legions have no right to interfere with the relevant affairs of the universe.

At this time, Lyon had left a suspended boat parked in the parking lot and took a track train to the assembly area.

Inside the carriage.

Lyon wearing a holographic glasses, holding the armrest above his left hand, standing near the door.

In Lyon's field of vision, Aida "stands" in front of him.

She is wearing a red cheongsam, with soft lines and bright colors, forming a sharp contrast in the carriage.

Of course, this is the image presented by the AR function of holographic glasses, making Aida as if in front of him and the same space as him.

The real Eda King is at the office of the Empire Palace and the headquarters of the Department of Investigation.

"Well, the face is also very cute."

Seeing Lyon's unpleasant expression, Aida couldn't help raising his mouth, with a hint of teasing and ridicule in his eyes.

Her tone is calm, but she is full of teasing.

As this sentence fell, Leon did not respond immediately, but continued to tighten his face, looking a little helpless.

Ada smiled again, and did not continue to joke, but turned to business, and uploaded relevant information to Leon's mobile phone.

Soon, Leon saw a series of graphic materials and video images through the AR function of the holographic glasses.

These intelligences have detailed geographical environment data, detection reports, and photos and videos taken on the spot.

The first thing Leon noticed was some data charts showing basic information on the other side of the door.

Gravity, temperature, atmospheric composition, etc., indicate that it is not the earth, but the environment is adaptable to humans, and they can breathe and move freely without wearing any protective equipment.

Then, Leon turned his attention to the photos and videos taken by the joint reconnaissance team.

Through the AR image, Leon can see the vast desert scene, the skyline and the distant horizon intertwined, under the blue sky, the light of the stars shines on the golden sand, reflecting a desolate but beautiful scenery.

Several pictures and videos taken by the joint reconnaissance force showed Leon a city inhabited by humans and aliens.

"Besides that."

Ada's words were rarely solemn. She adjusted the equipment slightly, sent over several newly taken images and videos, and then continued:

"The joint reconnaissance force also found that the human or alien civilization over there has a mature interstellar navigation capability. According to the latest data, it can be directly concluded that the ship hovering over the city is a warship.

After all, that ship has an energy shield that cannot be directly seen by the naked eye, as well as a large number of artillery of different calibers."

"Well," Leon nodded lightly, and said his guess:

"And it looks better than the 14th Universe (Galaxy Fleet) The Federation ships are more advanced, even comparable to most of our ships. "

"Therefore, the Thousand Sons need the assistance of the Investigation Department and obtain more detailed intelligence from there in a short time."

Ada also nodded, her tone was still calm, but she could not hide a trace of worry in her eyes, and said:

"More importantly, the think tank of the Thousand Sons also sent back a report saying that after they crossed the space gate, they sensed that there was some abnormal energy field there.

That energy is not a traditional technological fluctuation, but more like a psychic material fluctuation, and there are even signs that there may be a special dimension similar to the subspace in that universe. "

?

Hearing this, Leon turned his eyes away from the information, looked at Ada and asked:

"What does the Intelligence Department say?"
