Chapter 913: Battleships of the First Engineer Regiment

"It's been three months. What's going on, Boss?"

Hu Jin stood at an observation window of the Light of Humanity, looking at the huge subspace rift outside the window that could be seen without any observation equipment. He was very confused about Wang Ming's current condition. They had been here for three months, and during these three months, their boss had been fighting against the biological fleet of the Tyranids in that area. While he was fighting those Tyranids, subspace rifts continued to appear in that space. Now, the subspace rifts in that area were almost the same as the Eye of Terror which had not yet opened.

That terrifying, huge warp was like something that would appear when a new god was born, and the more the time travelers looked at that thing, the more they felt that it was like the Eye of Terror created when Slaanesh was born, which made the time travelers feel a chill down their spines. After all, although they knew Wang Ming's situation, they also knew that when Wang Ming became a warp god, he had been in a very dangerous state for a period of time. In that state, Wang Ming's consciousness was washed away by the turbulence in the warp, and his soul, swept away by countless human souls, ascended to the throne of deification, but at the same time, his soul would also be affected by countless human souls.

Those countless consciousnesses washed over Wang Ming's consciousness, intending to make his soul become the concept of the God of Vengeance and everything that the God of Vengeance represented. If those souls really assimilated Wang Ming's consciousness at that time, then Wang Ming would probably become a new enemy of mankind. If Wang Ming's consciousness was assimilated by those consciousnesses and only the concept of the God of Vengeance existed, then a new evil god would appear in the subspace, an evil god who would be at war with the other Chaos Gods, but would also be an absolute disaster for mankind.

As for this situation, the time travelers had actually discussed it during the past three months. However, when they took into account Wang Ming's immortal ability and the special nature of their souls, they decisively rejected the possibility that Wang Ming would become the next evil god of the subspace. Wang Ming had heard of this test more than once. His soul would not be assimilated by those other souls. He would still retain his consciousness and protect all human beings in the galaxy as a sober god of the subspace.

However, although the possibility that Wang Ming will become the evil god of the subspace has been ruled out, the time travelers still have to make some preparations for this situation. After all, for a very huge problem, many solutions have to be given.

When faced with that possible situation, the time travelers came up with a solution of using various regular weapons to try to kill Wang Ming. After all, according to the previous situation, Wang Ming would regain consciousness after dying once, his soul would be repaired, and his body would be reshaped in the real universe. However, using regular weapons to kill a warp god was actually just wishful thinking on the part of the time travelers. In fact, they also knew that it was impossible for regular weapons to kill a warp god. Otherwise, they would have used the regular weapons of this entire fleet to go to the warp and settle accounts with those Chaos Gods over the past ten thousand years.

In fact, among the many response plans, the only one that the time travelers felt was feasible was to let the emperor strangle Wang Ming to death. After all, only the true god in the subspace could fight against the gods of the subspace, and in this situation, this was the only method they could use.

This plan was entirely for the time travelers to use a large number of sacrifices to complain to the Emperor. They had actually done this before. It was just that each psychic said a word to the Emperor through sacrifice. The Emperor could understand Chinese anyway, so there was no need for them to say each word one by one. A dozen people could just sacrifice and say a complete sentence.

"Boss, the situation is very strange now, just like the evil gods in the subspace. Our think tank tried to use psychic prophecy or some detection spells to explore the situation over there, but all the detections have no effect on that area. All the detections will disappear as soon as they approach that area."

Beside Hu Jin, Wang Xiaofa looked at Hu Jin and told him about the current situation they had. He also told him about the fleet's exploration of that star region. Currently, the fleet no longer has Wang Ming in command, and now the highest level of the fleet's commander is actually Zhou Heng, and under Zhou Heng are Hu Jin and Wang Xiaofa. Currently, the fleet has not given up on exploring that area, but all psychics on the fleet or any observation equipment will encounter various obstacles when observing that area.

"Forced observation..."

"I have tried it. No matter how powerful the psychic spell is, it is the same when observing that area. Even... if you force observation, you will burn the head of a powerful Alpha Plus think tank directly..."

Hu Jin looked at Wang Xiaofa. He just wanted to ask if he could let the think tank forcibly observe that area, but Wang Xiaofa had obviously anticipated that Hu Jin would ask this question, and he directly told him the consequences of forcibly observing that area. If they forcibly observed that area, either they would not be able to see anything, just like before, or the brains of the psychics observing that area would be directly burned by the existence in that area. That area was like a restricted area that was completely isolated from the universe. Except for the subspace cracks that were constantly expanding and contracting, nothing could be seen from observing that area from the outside.

"Xiaofa, get ready. I will lead the Second Regiment in a battleship to observe the situation closely."

Hu Jin looked at the huge subspace rift outside the window, he sighed deeply, then considered the most desperate situation in his mind, and then prepared to take the second group to observe the situation in that area up close.

"This is the only way. Well, the homemade battleship built by the First Engineer Corps can be launched. You can drive that battleship to observe the situation. Anyway, I heard from the brothers in the First Engineer Corps that this thing is faster than the current human federation ships. They also said that it should have some Necromancer technology added to it. It's a good time to collect data during this operation." Wang Xiaofa looked at Hu Jin. After hearing what Hu Jin said, he took out a data tablet, clicked on the data tablet, and handed the data tablet to Hu Jin.

"Um..., the prototype of the First Engineer Regiment..."

Hu Jin looked at Wang Xiaofa in front of him, and then he looked at the data tablet in his hand. He looked at the introduction of the battleship made by the First Engineer Corps on the data tablet. When he saw that thing, he felt that it was a bit against the sky at first sight. First of all, he had no way to complain about the design of this battleship. This battleship was almost equipped with various cannons from beginning to end, from macro cannons to nova cannons. This battleship covered almost all the naval guns of the empire from beginning to end, and there was even a huge star destroyer cannon on the bow of this battleship. This thing was removed from the battleship of the Human Federation. It can be said that all the functions of this thing are basically provided for those various artillery. There are various automatic loaders for live ammunition weapons inside the battleship. The interior of this battleship is also covered with densely packed charging pipelines for energy weapons.

This battleship is basically a movable void turret. Most of the energy provided by the antimatter reactor installed on this thing is used by those energy weapons. In order to provide the energy needed by other equipment on this battleship, the traversers of the First Engineer Corps are also ingenious. They installed three antimatter reactors and a reverse Necrons energy supply device whose working principle is unknown. This thing is purely a black box. This thing was the technology given to the traversers by the Necrons when Wang Ming traded with the Necrons before. After some technical exchanges with the Necrons, although the traversers did not know what the principle of this thing was, nor did they know how this thing worked, they could make it. This made Hu Jin think that this group of things must have some of the greenskins' thinking power, otherwise how could they have made this thing directly without knowing the principle and technology.

"Speaking of this thing..."

Hu Jin looked at the unknown reactor on the battleship design drawing on the data board. He looked at Wang Xiaofa, hoping to get some information about this thing from Wang Xiaofa. After seeing the thing, Wang Xiaofa did not answer Hu Jin's question. He just shook his head expressionlessly, indicating that he didn't know what this thing was. Everything he knew was displayed on this data board. As for that thing, he knew no more than the information on this data board.

"Okay, let's just hope this thing doesn't blow up mid-flight."

Hu Jin looked at Wang Xiaofa who was shaking his head expressionlessly. He gave up wondering what the unknown reactor was. He couldn't possibly go to the First Citizen Corps to ask what this thing was. After all, the First Engineer Corps had now become a paradise for scientific lunatics in cooperation with the Necrons. Those former federal scientists and those traversers from the First Citizen Corps were now overjoyed after obtaining some Necrons technology. All kinds of unknown technological creations were flying around in the area where the First Engineer Corps was located. Although they also flew with traversers from the First Engineer Corps and a few cabins from time to time, there was even a famous saying in the laboratory of the First Engineer Corps, which was, if you can't do research well, then you have to take your experimental equipment with you.

Today, the stationing area of ​​the First Engineer Regiment has become a completely restricted area for the entire fleet. No one wants to go to that area. After all, that place is bombed from time to time, or several other cabins are bombed together. Fortunately, the area of ​​the Light of Humanity is almost as big as a moon, otherwise it would not be able to withstand their tossing. In addition to consuming the nanorobots on the fleet, they have indeed made some strange things. These things cannot be said to be useless, but they cannot be said to be completely useful either.

Just like the Skyfire Sword they had made before, generally speaking, the things they made could potentially carry the user flying. If they were using the prototypes of those things, then they would definitely be prepared to have a face-to-face talk with the Emperor.

Anyway, the guys in the second group were not afraid of death. It was just that the battleship might explode halfway through its journey. What was the big deal? At most, they would just float in the air for a while, or be taken away by the explosion.

Just when the time travelers from the Second Regiment had decided to go to that area to observe the situation closely, the time travelers from the First Engineer Regiment were almost overjoyed after receiving the news. It was the first time that their battleship was launched, and this was a great opportunity to collect actual combat data. While the time travelers from the Second Regiment were still preparing, the time travelers from the First Engineer Regiment began to carry out drastic modifications and loading and unloading work on the battleship. First, they filled the battleship with ammunition for all the live ammunition weapons, and then they also checked the airtightness of the ship. After all, they had never considered this problem before, thinking that as long as it could be used, all their energy was focused on installing guns on the battleship.

To be honest, this issue is actually a very serious issue. For a void ship, the airtightness problem may very likely lead to the death of all the people on the ship. However, the brothers of the First Engineer Regiment simply selectively ignored this issue. After all, it is normal to give some experience for the first shipbuilding. At most, the death of a few combat brothers will increase the manufacturing experience.

"Is this the ship?"

In the dock of the Light of Humanity, Hu Jin and the time travelers of the Second Regiment looked at the thirteen-kilometer-long giant ship in front of them. To be honest, if you don't consider some issues, this thing is actually very beautiful. This thing is different from the Gothic style design of the Imperial ship. The design of this thing is derived from the design of the ship by the Human Federation, and it has a more technological appearance. Of course, this is if you ignore the various huge cannons piled from the bow to the stern.
