Chapter 443 Blood Axe
Upper deck of the White Knight.

The snowstorm that filled the entire vast space obscured the vision of all the red-robed priests of the order. Then, from the snowstorm, the personnel going to join the battle walked out.

The priests immediately came forward with their servitors to inspect the armor and weapons of each Astartes and refill the psychic silver vines with crystals.

The Dogs of War military regulations still observed by the World Eaters have strict regulations even for the post-battle recovery period.

There are rules about what stance an Astartes should strike when wearing a Terminator Tactical Dreadnought or regular Power Armour, and how far apart his feet should be.

The flag bearer would even hold a special stick and walk outside the square with the company flag. If he saw anyone whose posture did not meet the requirements of the legion regulations, he would beat them to the point where they needed to be rescued by a pharmacist.

However, after Angron's return, although the flag bearers would patrol the soldiers with sticks, they would not beat them, but only correct them.

“It felt like the whole world suddenly became peaceful and serious.”

Kahn let the priest inspect his armor while he looked at the soldiers of the Champion Company lined up in neat formation.

"Why?" Qin Xia looked at Kahn.

"That's how I felt when I was fighting the Orks, noisy and funny," Kahn said. "What the hell is this super little WAAAGH star, boss..."

Qin Xia admitted silently.

A priest stepped forward and removed the green-skinned butcher's armor from Qin Xia, and smeared it with the green-skinned orc's blood for maintenance.

The greenskin blood was not collected by the Astartes in the battle just now, but was bought from the Blood Axe Clan when the fleet passed the border of the Human Empire.

Bloodaxe would gladly sell the blood of the Ullanor orcs slaughtered in the war in exchange for some gold.

This gold will be used by the diplomatic boys to bribe the human imperial bureaucrats and smuggle human imperial weapons and uniforms.

The priest took off Qin Xia's armor and bowed to him.

Qin Xia turned and walked off the deck.

Kahn, who had finished maintaining the Terminator Armor, followed.

"The alien force called Blood Axe will indirectly become the vanguard of the empire and attack the Ullanor Empire first." Kahn said as he walked, "Although they are small in number and limited in size, it is highly likely that they will not play any strategic role..."

Qin Xia turned and looked at Kahn as he walked: "You actually want to remind me that those Blood Axe Greenskins will become a greater threat than the Ullanor Empire, right?"

Kahn admitted with an awkward but polite smile that he had just been beating around the bush.

Qin Xia did not give an immediate reply.

It's not that he didn't think Bloodaxe could be a greater threat than Ullanor, but he thought it was a possibility.

When Qin Xia met Gusa this time, he felt that its development was beyond his expectations.

Some things do need to be analyzed carefully.

"Nothing is beyond my control." Qin Xia said something to reassure Kahn, "That orc warlord has some connections with me, and these connections are within my control. As for the specific reasons, I can't tell you for the time being..."

"Because it was born from a lie, a lie about the greenskin butcher." Kahn smiled and said, "You wrote a comment to the High Knight in the book "Lord of Nuceria": You rise by this, and you will fall by this."

Hearing this, Qin Xia stopped, turned 90 degrees to face Kahn, and looked down at the World Eater with a look of interest and surprise on his face.

Kahn looked up at the Lord of the White Knights and continued.

"The warlords of the Blood Axe Clan are equivalent to the High Knights, and the Greenskin Butchers and their related things are ancient relics. Just like the High Knights, they rely on ancient relics to rise and own everything. When the ancient relics are controlled by the rebels, their demise has entered the countdown."

"There are some subspace-level connections between the Greenskin Butcher and the Warlord, which makes the Warlord vulnerable to being countered by the Greenskin Butcher, that is, you."

"I understand that, sir."

Kahn said and waited quietly for the Lord of the White Knights' comments.

Qin Xia looked at Kahn with admiration.

Whether Angron fought the Butcher's Nails or not, Kahn was his favorite offspring.

Kahn is smart, wise, and decisive. Although he uses a crude weapon like a chainsaw axe and seems to have hyperthyroidism, he is a person with great thinking ability and philosophical thinking when he is not fighting... Although some of the conclusions he draws after thinking are often laughable...

"But sir, your identity as a greenskin butcher can help you counter that warlord, but Blood Axe has more than just one warlord named Gusa..." Kahn said.

"I understand." Qin Xia stepped forward again, "I will evaluate it carefully and make the most prudent decision."

Kahn stopped and saluted.

Qin Xia walked into the laboratory.

The Orina sisters, Quadrant, and Brown were all busy with their own things in the laboratory.

Sister Orina was dissecting an orc, while Quadrant was controlling the bulky conventional body to operate a device.

Brown was on hand to help Quadrant fiddle with the equipment.

"Everyone, stop for a moment." Qin Xia clapped his hands as he walked to the center of the laboratory.

When several people gathered around, Qin Xia said, "We need to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the Blood Axe. Then you write a report to me. I will formulate a strategy based on the report you submit."

"Hasn't this been analyzed before?" Brown asked, "By reading the half-realistic, half-imaginary accounts of the Blood Axe Orcs written by the Imperials?"

"Those are not worth using as analysis materials." Qin Xia closed his eyes.

The Lord of the White Knights focused his attention on the Warp, searching for something that was invisible in the real universe but extremely clear in the Warp.

For example, "association".

The Greenskin Butcher is one of Qin Xia’s identities, and Gusa’s fate is related to the Greenskin Butcher, so Qin Xia naturally has a "connection" with Gusa.

Following the connection, Qin Xia could see the soul projection of Gusa in the subspace.

When he had the desire to observe, he could observe what was happening in Gusa.

Olya lowered her head and found that frost had condensed on her boots. The supernatural cooling brought by psychic energy made the laboratory, where a large amount of equipment released operating heat, become cold.

Then the vision emerged.

Gusa, the Lord of the Blood Axe, appeared in front of everyone, and the environment in the laboratory turned into the command deck of a green battleship.

The greenskin creations looked crude, but not Guza's flagship.

The exposed steel and anchoring are also main visual elements, but they are more decorative.

Red carpets, flags with the outlines of Gusa and Sizzle Fart, heads and torsos of green-skinned bosses killed by Gusa in every war, and even a large khaki planet model suspended in the center of the command deck. "Super Big WAAAGH Planet." Olya recognized the khaki planet model at a glance.

"The super-large star WAAAGH was destroyed in the battle of the Onus sector." Quadrant said a sentence with a funny noun without any emotion.

"That planet has become a holy place in their memory." Olya looked at everything on the command deck. "I have been thinking about what made Gusa become a warlord and establish a cohesive greenskin force."

The others looked at Olya.

"Agree."

“This is an extremely important condition for forming a community, and the greenskin community must also have identity.”

"I think that what brought the Blood Axe together... was the Greenskin Butcher's recognition."

Olya looked at the Blood Axe flags that could be seen everywhere on the command deck, which were the battle axe used by the green-skinned butcher version of Qin Xia.

Qin Xia listened to what Ouliya said and began to think.

Obviously, this is a correct conclusion.

The Greenskin Butcher has become a kind of identity. All the Greenskins who were driven out of their homes by the Ullanor Empire and experienced the Battle of the Onus Sector remember the existence of the "Greenskin Butcher". It is not surprising that Gusaru wanted to establish a force and regarded the Greenskin Butcher as a kind of identity.

Even though the Greenskin Butcher is an enemy, he has become the "identity" of a group just like nation, blood, and interests. He brings the Greenskins together and gathers them around the legendary orc who is the only one who can survive the invincible Greenskin Butcher.

"Greenskin sociology." Qin Xia praised, "There are scholars in the Empire who are studying this aspect, but they sit on Terra and ponder for a long time but their insights are not as good as yours."

"After all, they don't have a super psychic to help them get first-hand information." Olya said with a smile.

"That's true."

"..."

Oulina rolled her eyes at Qin Xia and continued to look around the entire command deck.

Just like human ships, Gusa's ships also have many senior officers in charge of various aspects.

In front of those large amounts of equipment full of rough green-skin style, there was an orc sitting and fiddling with the equipment.

These orcs are not wearing colorful clothes, but the uniform "Blood Axe Red" naval uniform.

Military boots and military caps looked a bit bulky on the orcs, but the uniforms were actually quite straight and straight.

Even the orcs wore military insignia.

Their military insignia do not have any symbols or designs representing any rank or honor, only clear and intuitive handwriting.

These words, like the language the greenskins speak, were synchronized directly into everyone's brain by Qin Xia's psychic power, allowing everyone to understand the greenskin language used by Blood Axe.

"The Blood Axe Navy yells Boss", this is the Communications Officer.

"Blood Axe Navy Boss", this is obviously the chief artillery officer who commands the artillery deck.

"Blood Axe Navy Scout Boss", the beast that operates the scanner equipment.

Among these orcs, there is even a fart spirit wearing a miniature version of a navy uniform. This fart spirit has a very large head and a very large mouth. The words on the military badge indicate that its identity is the Noisy Boss.

"A fart spirit can become a senior officer." Olina frowned and thought, "Perhaps because Gusa has a fart spirit partner named Hiss Fart, Blood Axe does not discriminate against fart spirits."

Qin Xia looked at the yelling boss.

The fart spirit stood directly on the chair and operated the equipment.

The creature called the Fart Spirit is a food reserve and a slave among slaves among the greenskin race. It is indeed incredible that a Fart Spirit can become a senior naval officer.

The reason behind this is obviously as Orina said, the Blood Axe warlord Gusa has a good little friend who is a fart spirit.

Blood Axe's imitation of the human military system is obviously not just about uniforms, but also about something deeper...

"Report to the boss!" Tantan Boss said, "I... I saw that the fleet was in a very WAAAGH condition. Um... I from the Fart Research Department thought that the force field of this thing must be running well... and... and the subspace creatures were isolated..."

"Very good, change the 10-cent report to a 10-cent report!" Gusa ordered while sitting on the throne.

"There are even rules for reporting at regular intervals, and even scientific research departments," Brown said. "What the hell... This should be similar to our solar hour."

Qin Xia was paying attention to the situation of the fleet.

Guza's fleet is indeed in good operating condition. Their "I think I need this thing too" force field isolates the invasion of warp creatures. Although the greenskins are not afraid of warp creatures, with the Geller-like stance, they can avoid fleet losses to the greatest extent when navigating in the warp.

As for how their Geller-like positions work and how they were studied by the Fart Research Department led by Hissing Fart, that is not something that humans can guess.

The fleet jumped out of the warp and arrived at an enclave system of the Ullanor Empire.

Gusa stood up from the throne and shouted, "Call my men! I want to discuss with them before we start chopping!"

Some greenskin military generals lined up to enter the command deck.

The holographic projection showed the situation of the galaxy, and those huge, scarred green-skinned orc generals and their own warlords began a pre-war meeting.

"Who the hell will do Ullanor!" Gusa paced and roared, "It's none of our business. We just need to chop, chop, chop, chop... Anyway, the guys on our territory will follow us to chop, we have to take over this place, we have to occupy this... as an outpost..."

Gusa looked at the world outside the porthole.

"Die Commando, Kill Commando, Tu Tu Commando!" Gusa roared.

"We are here!" The three green-skinned generals stepped forward, stood at attention facing Gusa, and saluted by hammering their chests.

They learned from the World Eaters.

"Follow me!" Gusa yelled at the general, "Hit the ball from that high place and WAAAGH it will break!"

The greenskins' roar at each other was not a bad attitude. Instead, this extremely aggressive and offensive attitude was a kind of friendliness. The greenskins, who had fought their way up from boys to generals, immediately started roaring, full of energy.

"They are no longer the greenskins we know. They can be called the Blood Axe species, a greenskin alien race. They are like two different races from their own kind," said Olya.

Qin Xia nodded and stared at the illusion.

"Next, let's see how they fight."

"Look at what kind of greenskin power I, a greenskin butcher, have indirectly created."
