Chapter 188 Taking Over the Power
Under the threat of force, Musilon began to move. An army of the dead was gathering, and powerful undead were being awakened one after another.

However, Laun, Mogiana and their companions were still busy maintaining the stability of the kingdom and eliminating the follow-up effects of Lilith. No one realized that another crisis was about to come, including Zhang Heng.

The reinforcements from Terra have already boarded the ship and will arrive in a few days. This force will become an important force in the hands of Morgiana and Otto.

Zhang Heng decided to leave an Ultramarines in Bretonnia just in case and to help the two manage Bretonnia, while the remaining four Ultramarines boarded the Thunderhawk and headed for Terra.

The Thunder Eagle crossed the Black Mountains. The rugged terrain and the long journey were no longer obstacles. Two hours later, the Thunder Eagle had reached the sky above Terra, and the Mechanicus had cleared a space large enough for the Thunder Eagle to land.

Ludwig was also waiting on the side. He had already learned about the existence of Space Marines from Lecard in advance.

After hearing about the horrifying selection method and transformation surgery, Ludwig was looking forward to meeting this powerful warrior. However, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the appearance of the Extreme Warrior.

"Are you the Emperor's chosen one? Rognar salutes you and praises the Emperor."

"Praise the Emperor, my name is Ludwig, and I welcome you to Terra."

Even the Astartes respect these mortals blessed by the Emperor. There are many mortals in 40k who are comparable to the Astartes, and these people often have their own strengths and unparalleled loyalty.

Rogner looked at Lecard beside him again.

"I didn't expect to see a sage from the Adeptus Mechanicus here. I guess the construction of this indigenous city is thanks to you, but why is it called Terra?"

"Sergeant Rogner, this is the name bestowed by the Emperor. This world is not that simple. It is not just a planet, it is like a world. I have observed the outer space here. The outside of this planet is not the Milky Way as we know it. I need to learn more about it. There are many magical powers here."

"I see."

"And in order to prevent the natives here from being too frightened, you and your brothers in the regiment please take off your power armor temporarily. My priests and I will be responsible for maintaining it."

Rognar, who had taken off his power armor and was wearing a simple robe, sat with Ludwig in the administrative hall of Terra.

The scars all over the body and the black shell interfaces on its body made Ludwig very curious.

From Lecard, Ludwig learned that these warriors not only had full combat capabilities, but were also extremely proficient in other aspects.

Now Terra's tentacles have reached every aspect of the empire, not just the internal affairs. Similarly, the external pressure from other electoral territories is a bit too much for him to cope with.

Watching Rogner carefully reading the various documents and reports in front of him, Ludwig doubted whether Rogner was reading them seriously because he was flipping through them too quickly.

After a few minutes, Rogner closed the document in his hand.

But you can see disgust from his face.

He looked at Ludwig and then at the document in his hand.

"The way you handled it was simply appalling."

"Hmm? Lord Rogner, Terra's development is the result of the efforts of all the believers here. Terra can now be said to be the most magnificent city in the entire empire. Even the capital of the empire, Altdorf, pales in comparison. Have you really read these documents carefully?"

Ludwig still raised his doubts.

But when Rogner directly and accurately stated Terra's various data and difficult problems, Ludwig knew that Rogner had really read it all, and even analyzed a lot of information that he didn't know from the literal data in just a short while.

"Moreover, your decision is too indecisive. Now, except for the Mechanicus who are improving every aspect of this city, the rest are simply standing still. They have the ability to further expand their territory and advantages, but they still do nothing. The only bright spot is in missionary work and curbing cultists." In Rognar's eyes, such a start is simply a perfect start.

There is no need to worry about supplies or food. Even the opponents are only equipped with simple gunpowder and cold weapons. Except for the magic-like psychic powers and the divine arts of those who believe in gods, which seem to be more troublesome, Terra has the technological dimensionality reduction suppression.

In Ultramar, the home world of the Ultramarines, what keeps the prosperous Five Hundred Worlds standing is not just their combat power, but also their superior operational capabilities.

Rogner expressed his wish to temporarily take over executive power from Ludwig, but this did not mean replacing him.

Ludwig, who also trusted the angels, agreed.

In just one night, Rogner wrote a large number of solutions. Ludwig picked up the documents and started reading them. He was soon convinced by Rogner. Lecard was not lying to him. From what Lecard said, Rogner was not the best at operations.

Some beings who are called heroes are far superior to Rogna.

The next day, when Terra officials were meeting, the Ultramarines appeared before them.

When the Terrans first saw these humans who were much taller than them appear in front of them, they were initially filled with fear. Some even called them blasphemous names like giants or trolls. However, after Rebecca and the Sisters of Battle explained, they finally knew the identities of these scary-looking people.

"Oh my God. The Emperor's Angel..." After all, with the priest of the Mechanicus in front of him, it didn't seem so hard to accept.

As expected, identity is very important when you are away from home. If a Space Marine is an enemy, then he is the most terrifying enemy. But if he is a friendly force, then it is different. He is the Emperor’s warrior and our solid backing. Praise the Emperor!

At this time, no Terran could deny the role and contribution of the Astra Militarum. Even the silent Kriegs seemed very friendly in their eyes.

The official who had previously shouted "troll" regretted it and kept confessing to the emperor.

"Everyone, as the Lord of Terra, I announce to you that the Emperor has once again sent down his messenger. Lord Rognar will temporarily take over the administrative power and be responsible for all affairs of Terra. Everyone must cooperate unconditionally."

Ludwig said to the crowd.

Unexpectedly, these officials did not have any aversion to the airborne leadership and even welcomed it.

The officials of Terra are all devout believers of the Emperor, otherwise they would not be qualified to become officials. As an emerging Terra, those stubborn aristocratic class groups have not developed in a short period of time. At least the current officials have lofty ideals in their hearts!

The Extreme Marines laid down their weapons and picked up pens and paper. Under the command of these energetic and fully-powered supermen, orders began to be signed one after another. The administrative and management efficiency of Terra was obviously improved by several levels.

The external strategy also suddenly became radical, especially for Faldorf and Nunn, who have infiltrated Terra the most.

Under the impact of money and faith, more and more powerful people threw themselves into the arms of Terra, and the Countess of Nun found that she could no longer command the craftsmen of the Gunnery Academy.

Although the gold coins from the sale of weapons produced by the Gunnery Academy continued to flow into her pocket, she felt that her power was slipping away from her.

The Faldorf wizards usually don't care about the common people, after all, they are noble magicians, but recently they found that the common people began to preach directly on a large scale, and even came into conflict with Sigma and other local churches.

But among these missionaries there were quite a few soldiers with golden bars.

After the conflict, people from other churches were injured or fled. It was not until now that people from the Mage Academy discovered that the Emperor's faith had penetrated so terribly in Faldorf.
