Warhammer 40 Spring: Loyalty of the Multiverse

Chapter 149 Collision
"Although I've studied it before, aside from the higher energy, it doesn't seem to have anything special about it." He then brought up the holographic projection again, looking at the data of the ether crystal. "But to be honest, its energy density is truly beyond imagination, and this energy is somewhat special..."

This question piqued the curiosity of everyone present, and even the emperor turned to look.

To be honest, no one really cared about the mineral resources of this world, or about the so-called high-pressure crystals and ether crystals.

At best, it can only be considered a high-density energy crystal.

But listening to Yuramirs's words now, it seems like there's a whole different story behind it.

"Does it have a physical form?" Tie Hui's tall figure slowly walked over, and his shadow directly enveloped Yuramirs' entire body from a few meters away.

As time went by, his body grew increasingly tall and large. His original power armor was no longer suitable for him!
"Wait a moment!" Yuramirs suppressed his inexplicable fear and gave an order to a mechanical priest who was following him.

In order to ensure sufficient logistics during this war, the group of red-robed aunts also took away the ether crystals, most of which were loaded onto ships and taken away.

Of course, it's definitely not for showing off after returning to the Empire or exchanging technology for others.

The mechanical priest is very fast, which of course also depends on the application of AI.

The lid of the wooden box, intricately carved with skull gears, imperial pronouncements, and various centuries of Omnesia reliefs, slowly opened.

A captivating light shone into everyone's eyes, even the emperor leaned forward in surprise.

"I don't think there's anything special about it!" Tie Hui reached out and picked it up to look at it, examining it closely under the light, but he didn't feel there was anything special about it.

It just looks a bit too bright, quite pretty. If it were made into a pendant and sold to the nobility of the empire, it would be said to have been blessed by the emperor; it would be quite a good luxury item.

After all, the emperor has manifested his power in this world. Even if he didn't witness it, it's still somewhat related to this world and can be considered a semi-sacred object.

Selling you a Throne Coin for 8,888,888 is a huge rip-off for me, isn't it?
Upon hearing Tie Hui's thought, the Emperor, still astonished by the etheric crystal, was suddenly taken aback. His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he swallowed his words and smacked his lips in displeasure.

He sensed his dissatisfaction!
It feels like I'm being used as a mascot?
Tie Hui had clearly forgotten about his connection with the Emperor's heart intermittently. Feeling that he wouldn't get any results from the research, he simply tossed it back into the box.

Malcard followed behind Iron Glow like a bodyguard. Barthol reached out to examine it, but his hand barely touched the air before blue nanoparticles formed a chain that instantly bound the aether crystal, then abruptly vanished before his eyes. However, Barthol's gaze followed closely, and he saw the aether crystal being pulled back into Hart Nef's hand.

This scene left Basharol bewildered, while Hart Neff smugly clicked his tongue.

Although the Ashclaws are numerous, their millennia-long nomadic existence, coupled with their preference for defending cities rather than launching offensive attacks, has led to a decrease in warfare. This has directly caused their physiological functions to gradually deteriorate. As a result, their combat capabilities are sometimes even inferior to those of newly trained Astartes recruits in high-intensity warbands.

After all, Astartes are weapons of war, and if they are not used for a long time, the physiological functions and organs that are designed for combat will gradually degenerate or even disappear.

This phenomenon was particularly severe in the Ash Claws. So much so that after Hart Nef learned that the backdoor to the Nano Core had been removed, he strongly insisted that they be the first to have it implanted.

After all, during the previous boarding action against the Warner civilization fleet, all the Ash Claw warriors suffered varying degrees of damage.

This indirectly illustrates the severity of the decline in their combat capabilities.

However, later, with the transplantation of the nanocore, Hart Neff actually developed many basic skills.

For example, this telekinesis! "Tch! What's so smug about? Our Lord Corax is truly a great man dedicated to liberating all humanity from the exploitation of slave owners!" Balthazar taunted again at the opportune moment. As Raven Guardians, they also knew a little about the mess between their Primarch and the Terran slave owners.

Barthalor had access to even more intimate chapter histories, so he was extremely knowledgeable about them.

Therefore, he often mocked Hart Neff, frequently adding phrases like the one just mentioned that often broke Hart Neff's defenses.

So much so that Hart Neff, who was on the verge of a breakdown, would frequently challenge him to duels, but he would always avoid them, even standing aside with a smile when called a coward.

Hart Neff: "Nuwa..."

Everyone exchanged smiles; we two had been the life of the party these past few days, bringing a lot of joy to everyone.

Since Tiberius needed to go to the incubation tank from time to time to repair his body due to the nanocore, Hart Neff has remained silent since losing his bickering partner.

Astartes valued brotherhood highly; otherwise, Horus wouldn't have had one...

Do not believe the lies and deceptions of chaos, for they have incited the Nine Armies and the Milky Way to rebel!
The appearance of Basharol has eased Hart Neff's emotions, and since they are both descendants of Corax, they have a lot in common.

"Alright, stop your foul mouth! Time to get to work!"

Tie Hui couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of the two of them, but the red enemy units were marked on the projected holographic image of the starry sky.

All we can do is stop them from spewing their foul mouth!

Hart Neff curled his lip and put the aether crystal back into the box. He wasn't going to stoop to the level of some people.

After seeing the Aether Crystal return to the box, the Emperor floated forward a little more, wanting to continue his investigation. Iron Will noticed this as well and was about to turn around and take a couple of steps forward with the Emperor.

But then a voice from a mortal officer came from behind: "Sir! Enemy warships have been deployed. Should we attack?"

"Sir, the enemy has sent a communication request code. Should we accept it?"

After several reports came in succession, Tie Hui pondered for a moment and then said decisively, "Aim directly at the target and then carry out orbital bombardment. I want no one to survive on this planet."

"Yes……"

In this moment in space, the light reflected from planets and the intense heat of stars converge, turning on the incandescent light of night for the entire battlefield.

"Unknown civilization ships, please return immediately..." Just as the Warner civilization's fleet was sending messages to this massive imperial fleet.

Inside the command room, a soldier trembled and stammered, "Sir...Sir!"

The officer looked over impatiently; after all, the sudden appearance of such a massive fleet of warships on the border of the Warner civilization's star system truly instilled fear in him, the defense officer.

What if this is an enemy civilization that suddenly breaks the universal peace treaty and launches an invasion against them?
However, in order to gain the moral high ground, the defense officer suppressed his fear and proceeded with the routine questioning.
