Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 15 Entering the Deck
"Take away the fallen soldiers, give them the honor they deserve, and increase their families' food rations!"

"Your kindness will be remembered by all!"

"Will, I know the names of some traitors in the law enforcement team. Send someone to arrest them!"

Gao Yi also knew the names of many people from his memory. In order to carry out such an orderly rebellion, there was more than just Scott as the accomplice. Many people were also secretly instigated by Scott.

"Will, have Pavian prepare a set of Marauder combat uniforms for me. I want to go to the bottom cabin myself!"

"I'm afraid this isn't a wise choice! Your safety comes first!"

Weier's first reaction to Gao Yi's proposal was to reject it.

"Follow orders, Will. I have reasons to go. This is good for all of us and is extremely important to the entire dynasty."

"That...alright! But please allow me to go with you! I can't let another captain be put in danger alone."

"Well, you go put on a combat uniform too!"

"I'll do it right now!"

Taking the elevator, Gao Yi and Weier also arrived at the lower deck.

When the soldiers saw Gao Yi, they all performed the Sky Eagle Salute to pay tribute to him.

"Look... it's the captain! The captain has come to the lower deck! I heard that all these equipment we have were provided by him!"

"Praise the Divine Emperor! Without this equipment, many of us would have died..."

Looking at the eager and admiring expressions of the crowd, Gao Yi felt a little uncomfortable.

But he also tried to keep himself calm.

He nodded and greeted everyone.

"Captain, your combat uniform is ready for you!" Pavian was already waiting for Gao Yi.

When he heard that the great Captain Gao Yi needed a set of equipment, he immediately rushed here with his servitor.

"Please forgive me, my captain. I heard that this equipment was for your use, so the other priests and I made some minor modifications. I think this is the only way to ensure your safety!"

"Change? What do you mean?"

Pavian excitedly ordered the servitor to push Gao Yi's raider set over.

At this time, the black CMC-660 combat suit that originally belonged to the plunderer became extremely gorgeous.

The golden sky eagle was imprinted on the chest, and prayers to the Divine Emperor were transformed into inscriptions carved into the armor.

A mark of purity hangs on each shoulder armor.

Gao Yi knew that Pavian wanted Gao Yi to be immune to certain psychic threats, but it was a bit redundant for Gao Yi.

"Thank you for your kindness, Pavian, but this weapon... isn't there something wrong?"

"I took a small stance shield from the Dynasty's trove and added it to it.

And please forgive me for selecting two relics left behind by generations of wandering traders. I believe your ancestors would be willing to give them to you for your use."

The relics Pavian mentioned were a fine-crafted power sword and a heavy fine-crafted bolter.

"Pavian! You actually sneaked into the family treasury and even dared to take out the sacred relics of the martyrs without permission!"

Will scolded Pavian loudly, but Pavian still knelt in front of Gao Yi.

Gao Yi walked forward and stroked the power sword. As he pressed the switch on the handle, a light blue decomposition field instantly covered the blade.

"Power Sword..."

Gao Yi was very satisfied! This is a power sword. It can even kill big demons. It is also a rare item in the empire.

I tried waving it a few times and it turned out to be surprisingly smooth!

Gao Yi is not particularly interested in this grenade launcher. After all, although shooting and blasting is very cool, the sacred close combat is even more exciting!
"Alright, Will, we'll discuss Pavian's punishment for opening the treasury and misappropriating the holy artifact after this incident!" "Alright... Pavian, there absolutely can't be a next time! You must accept the punishment you deserve after this incident is over."

"This is all for the Captain, Steward Weir! Isn't his safety the most important thing? The Omnissiah is with you, my Captain!"

Although he said he wanted to punish Pavian, Gao Yi was very satisfied with Pavian's behavior.

Gao Yi's psychic resistance is terrifyingly high, but on the physical level, Gao Yi is still just a flesh and blood body. The stance shield can greatly improve Gao Yi's survivability when facing physical attacks.

Whether it is a relic or not, a holy object or not, Gao Yi would rather use these things directly than enshrine them. He doesn't care about any taboos!
With Pavian's help, Gao Yi put on his equipment and armor.

Surrounded and protected by a group of soldiers, they moved towards the bottom cabin.

Damon and his team continued to advance as the vanguard, and the soldiers who joined later also strengthened their assault force. Under the absolute firepower suppression, the traitors retreated step by step, and they had no effective countermeasures when facing the high-speed mobile Grim Reaper.

Damon and the soldiers cleared a safe passage for Gao Yi. They were not in a hurry to clean up the remaining trash. Those lunatics were too late to hide now. With the completion of the clearance, Gao Yi's psychic crystal deposit was close to 30,000. These 30,000 psychic crystals represented the lives of nearly 10,000 traitors.

Gao Yi also sent another 50 rangers to replenish his strength.

The next action is not suitable for the humans of the Warhammer universe.

When we arrived at the entrance of the bottom warehouse, the team had already gathered outside the passage waiting for Gao Yi's arrival.

"Damon! Gather all the Rangers. You need to come with me to complete a mission! Have some of them replace the Firebats!"

"Your soldiers have assembled! I've also had them change into their equipment in advance, so they're ready to go at any moment!"

"Vir, you and the crew stay outside. You're not needed for the next mission!"

"No! We agreed before! I will never let you go in alone! Please let me stay by your side to protect you!"

Seeing that Weir looked like he was saying that if he didn't agree, he would follow him in, Gao Yi could only say helplessly.

"Will, then you must swear loyalty to the dynasty and never reveal anything you saw in there!"

"I, Will Rodrigo, swear by the dynasty and my family that I will never reveal anything I saw inside!"

"Alright! Let's go! It's time to end this riot. Enough sacrifices have been made! Every second we stay in the warp is an increase in danger."

Gao Yi led a group of soldiers into the deepest part of the warship.

With the help of Scott's memory, Gao Yi also knew the location of the so-called ceremony. As soon as he entered the bottom cabin, Gao Yi felt the rich subspace energy.

Compared with the lower deck, the influence of the subspace here is several times greater. The normal lighting system of the entire bottom cabin has been cut off. Everyone can only rely on the tactical flashlights on their combat uniforms to find the way forward.

Originally, Gao Yi had some imagination about this so-called bottom cabin, but when he actually saw the scene in the bottom cabin, he was still shocked.

It was deserted and dilapidated, with countless damaged and abandoned instruments and cabins scattered throughout.

There were exposed pipelines and conduits that led to nowhere. If it weren't for Scott's memory, he would never find the right place.

"Vir...how did you find your way here?"

"Every once in a while, a priest would bring people to draw maps, but these maps are of the area near the entrance. The complex environment here is almost impossible to completely map. Some mutants hiding here may even artificially change the terrain."

"You guys are really generous..."

Through the light provided by the flashlight, Gao Yi discovered that the space around him was rippling.

There were even transparent human figures moving around everywhere.

"Don't shoot! These are illusions created by the influence of the warp. They are not real entities. The resentment of those who died tragically here formed these ghostly beings!"

All kinds of strange influences that should not exist in the physical universe keep appearing. If an ordinary person stayed here, he would probably be driven crazy in a few minutes. At this time, Gao Yi was like an absorber and purifier of subspace energy.

While purifying the surrounding subspace energy, it also protects the soldiers around it from being affected.

The balance of 1, 2, 3, 4 psychic crystals can actually increase slowly just by staying here.

Everyone felt that countless pairs of eyes were staring at them from all directions.
