Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 82 Successful Leap
After obtaining the divine machine, Gao Yi immediately called Rebecca, Will, and Pavian.

These three people are now the most loyal and important people under his command.

Gao Yi was also generous in rewarding these people.

However, Gao Yi did not inject too many psychic crystals into fighters like Damon.

Gao Yi injected 5000 psychic crystals into each person.

The divine machine actually has an effect on people like Pavian whose bodies have undergone extreme modifications.

Pavian discovered that the mechanical modifications on his body had become more powerful and stronger, and even his calculation speed had become faster.

Rebecca and Will also gained physical and spiritual improvement.

Physical improvement is the least important thing for these two people, so Gao Yi didn't want them to fight as soldiers.

However, their abundant mental strength can give them more energy and time to handle more government affairs for Gao Yi.

Compared to fighting, Gao Yi hates those complicated official documents even more.

Of course, the three of them were unaware of Gao Yi's selfish motives. They only felt an unspeakable power filling their bodies. The strengthening of their bodies also extended their lifespan and physical health, and even allowed them to hold on longer when encountering chaos corruption.

Maybe some people would want to die after living too long... but that would never happen to Will and Rebecca at their age.

Dante, the commander of the Blood Angels, said that he really didn't want to do this anymore and asked if he could just quit.

"Thank you for the gift, my lord!"

Will and Rebecca both believed that this incredible creation was some kind of precious holy relic or an unknown powerful technology.

They all thought that Gao Yi paid a great price.

However, Gao Yi gave them such a precious thing to use, which showed his trust in them.

"Will, Rebecca, Pavian, this is a reward for your loyalty. I hope you can make more contributions to the dynasty!"

"Everything for you, everything for the dynasty!"

Gao Yi was very satisfied seeing the reactions of the three people.

------------

Rebecca returned to her office.

Sitting in the chair and feeling my body which seemed to be completely renewed was a great joy.

Long hours of high-intensity work have left her with various hidden illnesses, which cannot be cured by a pharmacist alone, and they bring more mental stress.

Feeling energized, Rebecca immediately immersed herself in the complicated government affairs.

Feeling refreshed, she processed one document after another. After 24 hours, Rebecca found that she was not tired at all. The servants had come to remind her several times to take a rest, but Rebecca still felt full of energy.

Rebecca, who was already a bit of a workaholic, couldn't stop anymore.

Poor Rebecca had unknowingly become Gao Yi's work machine...

Gao Yi took a shuttle to the starport on Agaros.

Almost all of the ore produced in Agaros is used to make Yamato.

All the original miners on Agaroth have been replaced, and the current miners are all those cunning people controlled by Kerrigan.

They are more efficient and can maintain confidentiality.

Under Pavian's guidance, Gao Yi finally boarded the warship he had been longing to visit for a long time. He came to the bridge of the warship.

The priest and a large number of crew members are familiarizing themselves with everything about the battleship.

In addition to becoming familiar with the battleship, the priests have even begun to modify it.

The first thing they did was to build a church inside the battleship with the help of SCV.

Seals of Purity were affixed to various mechanical devices within the Yamato. Under the religious guidance of these priests, relying on SCVs, Seals of Purity, and prayer, this otherworldly warship seemed to possess a few young machine spirits.

These machine souls are created based on Gao Yi's mechanical faith priesthood.

When Gao Yi sat in the captain's seat, he felt that the warship was welcoming him.

All selected naval crew members have passed layers of political review, and the soldiers in key positions are the interstellar soldiers under Gao Yi.

"My lord, the fourth ship will be completed soon. The jump engine debugging is complete. Not only that, I also discovered that the communication system on this battleship is unprecedented. I have begun reverse engineering it. This technology, called quantum communication, will allow us to communicate across galaxies without being restricted by the subspace and astropaths."

Pavian introduced Gao Yi.

"When can we start attempting the first jump?"

"Anytime! Where would you like to target your first jump?"

Hearing this, Gao Yi took out the star map and opened it.

This was just an attempt, and Gao Yi set his target on the nearest galaxy, and the actual jump mission would be completed by another battleship.

Seeing the galaxy Gao Yi pointed to, Pavian immediately began to input the galaxy coordinates.

The reactor inside the battleship began to operate, and the conventional engine carried the Yamato out of orbit and into the void.

As the reactor's energy began to charge the space jump engine, everyone watched the battleship with bated breath.

"Energy supply is normal, galaxy coordinates have been calibrated, the machine spirit has been awakened, and the jump can be carried out at any time."

The warship's crew reported to Gao Yi.

"Jump authorized!"

When the order was given, a large amount of energy poured into the jump engine, and space began to fold under everyone's gaze. The next second, the Yamato disappeared into the Agathos galaxy.

There is no signal from it at all on the augury instrument.

At this time, the quantum communication facilities in the battleship also began to operate.

"Report to Lord Gao Yi! We have successfully jumped! We have arrived in this galaxy! The jump engine needs 30 minutes of cooling time!"

When the news of success reached Gao Yi's ears, he couldn't help but cheer.

With this efficiency, even the Eldar's Webway and the Necrons' navigation technology seem weak.

"Start the exploration plan immediately! Pavian, I can provide you with any resources you need. Complete the reverse engineering as quickly as possible!"

"I'll do my best, but many of these technologies are very different from the normal laws of physics. We can only keep trying and finding alternatives, which may take a long time."

Gao Yi understood Pavian's words. After all, these were products from different worlds. If they really wanted to be universal, Gao Yi couldn't believe that after all these years, the scientific research capabilities of the Warhammer world couldn't produce this thing? It was too unreasonable.

If 40k doesn't work, then the Golden Age doesn't work either?
The only pity is that no valuable planets were discovered during this jump. The galaxies they jumped into were not suitable for human survival. Some of them were just barren worlds where even the atmosphere did not exist.

However, Gao Yi didn't care about this. After all, there were countless planets in the Milky Way, but there were not many valuable planets that could be used. Exploration was always accompanied by the unknown, and risks and benefits coexisted.

Half an hour later, the battleship jumped back to Agaros again.

Gao Yi also returned to the planet Agathos without stopping.

Agathos has now entered a period of healthy operation, but it will take time to grow into a behemoth, and Gao Yi, as Agathos's wandering merchant, must speed up this process.

Almost all the known galaxies in the expansion zone already have owners. If he doesn't want to start a war, he can only turn his attention to those unknown galaxies.

As soon as he returned to Agathos, Gao Yi began to coordinate supplies and select personnel for this exploration.

Gao Yi planned to leave Rebecca and Will in Agathos and let them manage Agathos's trade and daily work.

A Yamato battleship will also be left in Agathos as a temporary communication base station so that he can rush back in time if anything happens in Agathos.
