Warhammer in a box

Chapter 108 Faith of Om Messiah
After hearing Gurman's words, Otto fell silent. The shock brought by the weapons in front of him made him, a businessman, clearly understand the business opportunities.

The endorsement of a great nobleman may allow his family to enter places that it has never been able to access before.

"Let me think about it……"

Otto looked at the bolter still in Bourne's hand, and then looked at his brother who was standing beside him with a look of disobedience.

As if hardening his resolve, Otto clenched his fists.

"Bet! The brave will die of overeating, the timid will die of starvation!"

The growth of the Jaeger Chamber of Commerce was not achieved by sticking to the old ways, and he doesn't want to miss the opportunity to protect his brother and gain a powerful backer.

Zhang Heng was also very happy to see that a large chamber of commerce was interested in Terra. He had the fighting force in his hands. Ludwig, Bourne, Gurman and the ancient chess pieces placed in the box already had the power to protect themselves in the current empire. However, if they encountered an irresistible existence, there was still him who could overturn the table.

However, when it comes to business, territory management and operations, and even world exploration, Zhang Heng is eager to recruit talented people.

If he could get such a mature chamber of commerce to help him conduct business in this world, he wouldn't mind giving these people some benefits as well.

After all, almost everything he could give could be considered a no-cost business. Even if he were to sell grain, Otto could make a fortune.

There are many people in this world who cannot eat well, and even more people who cannot eat enough.

Otto summoned all the mercenaries in the fortress and counted them, finding that there were more than 400 of them. These people had considerable fighting power, at least stronger than ordinary soldiers.

However, when Otto said that he wanted to carry out a support mission to the Imperial Artillery Academy, some people still raised objections. Fifty out of more than four hundred people refused to participate in the operation, even though Otto offered extremely generous rewards.

They still chose to withdraw from the Chamber of Commerce. After all, having money but no life to spend it is equivalent to not making any money.

But what surprised Otto even more was that more people stayed, most of them were Kislevites.

These humans in the northeasternmost part of the empire usually live on barren land and cannot even get enough food. They also have to face the barbarians of the Chaos Wasteland and even demons summoned by cultists.

Rat-men? Could there be anything more terrifying than those immaterial demons?
The price Otto offered was enough for the Kislevites to use the money to buy food for their people for half a year as long as they survived.

This will make life much better for your loved ones.

"Very good, Isuka, you and your warriors will know that you made the right decision, and your people will have a good life because of you!"

Otto did not directly dismiss those who were unwilling to participate in the action. He asked them to stay in the fortress to take care of the wounded of Nun, but he directly handed bags of gold coins to those who were willing to participate.

He needed to pay his reward in advance to ensure that these people were willing to follow him to do the dangerous things that were about to happen.

"Boss, we will do as much work as you give us. If you give us enough, it doesn't matter if we die. You just have to promise me that you will hand over the money to my people. The lives of Kisli people are worthless, and we have followed you for so many years. You are a good boss, and we believe in you!"

Isuka did not say any high-sounding words of thanks, but stated the facts very honestly: these excellent warriors should have been fighting on the front line.

But now a large number of Kislevites have come to the land of the empire in order to get food in the future, and even the symbolic elite Winged Cavalry have come to seek a living.

After assembling the team and having everyone take as many weapons and ammunition as possible, Otto, Gurman and others gathered at the gate.

After the soldiers on the wall signaled that everything was normal outside, everyone opened the door and rushed out.

The ratmen who had originally besieged the place had long since disappeared. Perhaps because the losses they would suffer from continuing the attack were too great, the ratman warlords gave up on taking over this place.

The streets of Nuln were now deserted and dilapidated. Although human survivors could be seen in the houses from time to time, most of them had either fled or died.

Corpses eaten by ratmen can be seen everywhere on the streets.

After all, in the eyes of the rat people here, humans are nothing more than food, and hungry slave rats will eat anything.

Otto, who had been sitting in the back, had never seen such a scene before, and he began to vomit violently.

"These monsters eat people! They're eating people!"

"Brother, are you okay?"

"Otto, you can see that this is not a war with room for maneuver. This is a war between two races. The price the losing side will pay is much greater than originally thought!"

After hearing what Gurman said, Otto suppressed his nausea and continued on his way.

After killing some Skaven on the road, they could already hear the sound of cannons and the flames of explosions in the distance.

This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, the Gunnery Academy is still there!
"Everyone hold on tight! The Empire needs us!"

Everyone quickened their pace.

At this time, the artillery academy was roaring with artillery fire.

The gunpowder and shells that had been accumulated for who knows how many years were finally used at this time, and those who had no shooting training but could hold a gun were also pulled onto the city walls.

"Not sure? That's okay? Just aim in the approximate direction and pull the trigger. What else is wrong? Then you're responsible for loading the ammunition! What do you mean you're afraid?
Okay, okay, I’ll give you a set of armor and a sword, go out and fight these man-eating monsters!
What? You said you can do it again? Then why are you still standing here? Go now! "

Among the Nuuns who sought refuge at the Gunnery Academy were not only civilians, but also many well-off minor officials and businessmen.

They had not expected that they would be called upon to fight as well.

What surprised Zhang Heng was that a sudden force of faith was flowing into his body.

There was so much ammunition that it was almost impossible to use up, but the same could not be said for the artillery pieces in the academy. The continuous shooting even caused the barrels of some artillery pieces to explode, while even more artillery pieces began to lose their accuracy due to overheating.

Mudifar was running around trying to repair the weapons.

His deft hands continued to operate, while he kept chanting prayers to Om Messiah, and he soothed the machine spirit.

After his operation, the weapons that were originally malfunctioning actually started to function normally again.

After seeing this scene, the engineers from the college also began to recite in the same manner.

I don’t know if it’s because of their psychological reasons or if the machine spirits in them were appeased, but after reciting the prayer, the weapons became even more accurate after a simple rest.

Soon, the name of Ohm Messiah began to slowly ring out among all the engineers in the college.

Their action also provided Zhang Heng with new power of faith.

But this almost suffocated Chuan Kuilo outside. Why are these humans in the city fighting more and more fiercely?
