Ten thousand years passed in a hurry, and when he woke up, he found that his hometown was destroyed, only one in ten members of the Ultramarines were left, and the corrupt empire buried with the brothers' past ideals. It was impossible not to be depressed.

At the beginning of his awakening, Guilliman was despondent after learning about the current situation of the Empire. He even had the absurd thought, "I might as well have died in the Horus Heresy", which caused the remaining Ultramarines to kneel down and beg. Father, never commit suicide.

But fortunately, no matter how dark the galaxy is, there is still hope shining like stars.

"After the battle against the Ether Worms is over, I will go pay a visit to the Star-Bomber..." Guilliman thought to himself and looked up. The layers of projection screens in front of his desk were filled with all kinds of dense information, so dense that it made him dizzy.

Only Guilliman's superhuman mind can wade through such dense information, extract the parts he needs, and make the most efficient plan for each task.

The crusade against the Ether Giant Zerg is a huge war, and the war with the Tyranids is by no means as simple as a battleship bombardment in space.

The warp shadows that block astropathic communications, the spore airdrop capsules that cover the sky, the virus swarms that pollute the ecosystem, the gene stealers that infiltrate the human population... these are all the Great Devourer's headache-inducing abilities.

It was true that the Star-Bomber fleet relied on sheer numbers and overwhelming firepower to quickly kill the giant ether worm, the Kraken, but what about the planet that was supposed to be protected? When Grey Wind dragged the giant worm's corpse back to Faya, Parmenio had already fallen. Waves of biomass flooded the planet's surface, and the spore drop capsules that covered the sky dyed the atmosphere of the entire planet a sickly scarlet. The terrifying viruses and harmful bacteria prepared by the Life-Shaping Worm Queen rapidly proliferated in Parmenio's ecosystem...

Although Kraken died, the originally precious and habitable planet Parmenio has been turned into a barren dead land that is difficult for humans to live and develop.

Although the alien died, Parmenio, an important barracks planet for the Ultramarines, was not saved. This tragic victory was really hard to make people happy.

Therefore, sniping the ether giant is only the first stage of the war with the Tyranids...

"Based on the intelligence from the Parmenio battle, I can judge that when the dragon scale armor on the body is penetrated, the giant insect will enter a violent state. Endless biological ships and insect waves pour out from under the skin scale armor and begin to attack. All surrounding planets, battleships and other targets launch a saturation invasion..." Guilliman's eyes flickered:

"The firepower of the six black stone fortresses is enough to kill the giant insect, but after the giant insect's body tissue collapses and spreads, the long fleet battle, gang-hopping battle, and ground battle are the places that consume the most will to fight."

This is destined to be a long tug-of-war. With Guilliman's army in hand, he still needs to plan well to achieve the maximum results at the minimum cost.

Guilliman divided the Tyranid War into four stages:

1. Sniper stage. In this stage, the firepower of all six black stone fortresses needs to be used to penetrate the dragon scale armor and drive the giant insect out of the second stage.

2. In the naval battle stage, after the giant insect collapses, many of its internal organs will turn back into ferocious insect swarm biological ships and rush out of space. In this stage, the three major fleets at hand need to be properly mobilized: the 1st Expeditionary Fleet, the Gothic Fleet, and Ultra. Ma Navy, annihilate it

3. In the ground battle stage, in addition to the insect swarm biological ships, the spore breath of the giant insects and the large number of small insect swarms that explode after the scales collapse will pose a huge threat to densely populated areas such as the planet surface and space stations. This is the Astra Militarum. The battle with the Astartes

4. Post-war clean-up phase...

The fleet gang-hopping and ground tug-of-war in the naval battle stage are the home ground of the reorganized Ultramarines Chapter.

Guilliman locked himself in his office, preparing every aspect of the war and every detailed troop deployment, striving to achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost while bringing as much merit and glory as possible into the hands of the Ultramarines.

This is one of Guilliman's most important chips for his next plan.

"In order to gain as much initiative as possible on Terra, I must..." Countless information rushed through Guilliman's brain. Human lives, resources, and strategic weapon reserves were all turned into numbers that could be quantified. The original body's With eyes as calm as a pool of stagnant water, he added, subtracted, multiplied and divided these heavy numbers, and came up with cold answers one after another.

Suddenly, a thin crack suddenly opened in the eternal solid ice.

"Blood sacrifice to the God Emperor, head sacrifice to the golden throne..."

A faint voice lingered in Guilliman's mind.

I've been sorting out the setting of Spare Ribs recently, and my mind is a little confused.

Recently I have to write about the plots related to Figure King Trazin and Storm King Imotek, so I am looking up information and sorting out the settings of the Necrons, but I feel that I can't figure it out clearly and my mind is a bit confused.

I just want to share with you a few headaches that I found myself:

1. In the setting of the Star God, the Necrontyr used living metal to make the body of the first Star God in the mother star. This allowed the invisible energy life of the Star God to manifest in the world.

But I found in other places that gw seemed to imply that the living metal was not developed by the Necrontyr themselves, but was a technology given by the Star God.

At the same time, I also learned that before the Star Gods of the Necrontyr's home planet gained their bodies, they seemed to be in a state of confusion and difficulty in communicating.

So is the source of the technology of living metal developed by the Necrontyr itself, or is it given by the Star God? Which one should I trust?

……

2. In addition to living metals, black stones are also hinted to be related to the Star God; the Star God "Burner" even gave the Necron the ability to enter the ancient saints' webway.

The C'tan are described as the embodiment of pure physical laws, unable to affect the Warp, so what explains the Burner's invasion of the Webway? This makes me very distressed

……

3. The Necrontyr are a short-lived race and have a strong obsession with extending life.

The short lifespan of the Necrontyr is said to be caused by toxic radiation from the home planet, but the Necrontyr who drifted to other galaxies after interstellar colonization still had a short life.

After an individual Necrontyr reaches a certain age, their physical condition will deteriorate rapidly and they will die, with no way to alleviate it. This bizarre decline has been described as a "curse" and "cancer"

The Star God once created long-lived Necrontyrs without cancer, and descriptions elsewhere also suggest that the short lifespan of the Necrontyr is actually a curse from the Star God.

However, this setting is still in the hinting stage in the official novel and has not been fully implemented. If I adopt it, there will be a risk of being backstabbed by GW in the future.

(Although even the official setting that is completely real has a precedent of being eaten by GW itself)

……

4. Psychic resistance

Matter and spiritual energy in Warhammer have similar resistance settings. The more "stable" the matter is, the harder it is to be affected by the power of subspace.

Specifically, it is more difficult for a psyker to flatten a piece of adamantine than a piece of plastic steel. The Emperor himself will take off his armor and gloves when performing some delicate psychic operations, allowing the flesh and blood of his palms to directly contact the flames.

The psychic resistance is a very good setting. I want to use it in some subsequent plots.

But I have only seen this setting reflected in the Emperor so far. Will GW be interested in books in the future? No one can tell

5. The spirit bone of the Eldar is described as "a stronger material than adamantine". At the same time, living metal is described as more tough and ductile than adamantine, but slightly less strong.

In other words, the material strength is: spiritual bone > fine gold > living metal

However, in actual performance, the Eldar warriors wearing wraithbone armor are often shown as high-speed and fragile units that can be destroyed by one shot from the Necromancer; while the Necromancer's own living metal body is so strong that it can only be used with a Power weapons that decompose force fields to break defenses

There are also some scenes in the official CG of Warhammer where humans use chain saw weapons to break the defenses of Eldar warriors (the teeth of chain swords are usually made of adamantine, while the armor of Eldar warriors is made of spirit bones). How is this done? ?

……

There are many similar places that make it difficult for me to write. I will go over them again...and then...

Chapter 327 Rune Factory

In the ever-changing sea of ​​souls, the chaotic ocean currents have no fixed direction. This pure energy dimension filled with the emotions of intelligent creatures has never been stable or regular.

But generally speaking, the realm of subspace is roughly divided into owner-occupied lands by beings called gods, as follows:

The territory of the loving father, the garden of Nurgle, the black magic house is hidden among the rotten bushes and branches, and inside it is the mother goddess of the elves, Aisha.

A forest of crystal, a labyrinth of Tzeentch, rivers of gold flow through this maze with 999 exits, and the bizarre reflections are filled with pure mathematical geometry.

Twisted circle, debauched wasteland, the Palace of Joy is located in the middle of the 6-story circle, where the Prince of Joy lives and indulges himself crazily day and night.

In addition, there are also webway nodes scorched by the pitch-black sun, chaotic and undivided areas dominated by turbulent currents, and dead nothingness completely drained by the Return to Void Hole. Every moment, more seawater flows here from other parts of the Soul Sea...

However, these are not the focus of Russell's attention. During this trip, he came to Cadia and physically approached the Eye of Terror, the largest subspace rift in the physical universe, in order to monitor the realm of Khorne.

Russell held a cup of hot milk tea in his hand, standing on the balcony of Lord Primus's private fortress and looking up at the sky. The purple starry sky came into his eyes.

Thin ripples of psychic energy flowed in Russell's pupils. With a subspace observation ability far stronger than any navigator, his sight passed through the Eye of Terror and scanned the endless tide of chaos flowing in the sea of ​​souls.

Then he saw it.

On the red earth, boiling brass formed rivers, winding through mountains made of bones. The sky covered with dark clouds was also dyed the color of blood, surging with an emotion known as anger.

The fortress made of brass stands in the center of the red scorched earth. This is the realm of Khorne. Countless warriors who believe in Khorne and bloodletters born from anger and murderous intent are constantly fighting, dying, and killing in this purgatory. Resurrection, continue to fight...dedicate more blood and more skulls to Him with heroic battles.

The God of Blood and Skull sits high on the brass throne, overlooking the endless killing and war on the red earth. He is eternally angry.

But just like Nurgle's garden is more than just a garden, the battlefield of blood and fire is not all of the realm of Khorne. At the upper end of the red earth and the upper reaches of the Brass River, you can see rune factories with billowing smoke. , mines, farms.

It was a place where armor, battle axes and other equipment were produced for the warriors of Khorne. The wizards and psykers captured by the followers of the Blood God were shackled and imprisoned in the rune factory to work day after day.

Yes, Khorne's realm even has a place for his most hated mages and wizards.

"Huh? There are mages and wizards in Khorne's territory?" A pretty girl with long silver hair came to Russell. By sharing his vision, Grey Wind also got a glimpse of the scene in Khorne's territory.

Gray Wind was very puzzled: "Don't Khorne appreciate the brave warriors who fight the enemy openly and cut off their heads the most? I remember you said before that Khorne hates Tzeentch's heresy who plays with magic and tricks, and has no regard for wizards. You don’t want to see Liudu very much?”

Why would Khorne's domain keep a group of psionic mages? Shouldn't he kill them all?

"It's not necessary to kill them all. Khorne just appreciates fair duels and dislikes intrigues. It's not that he rejects psychic magic itself." Russell took a sip of hot milk tea and said:

"It's the same victory. If you cut off the enemy's head with a powerful sword that can turn a million horses with psychic energy, Khorne will admire your bravery. But if you use magic to turn the enemy into a pig, it will be a blasphemy to the dignity of a warrior in the eyes of Khorne, and he will send dogs to bite you."

Russell pointed to the three-headed vicious dog lying obediently beside the brass throne and said, "That dog is called the Flesh Hound. Legend has it that the Blood God's loyal dog will hunt down every coward and opportunist forever."

"You are also very opportunistic, aren't you?" Gray Wind said, staring at the corner of Russell's mouth.

"But Khorne didn't dare let the dog bite me." Russell smiled, with a milky milk stain on the corner of his mouth.

Grey Wind tiptoed up to Russell, stretched out his soft and tender tongue to lick a drop of milk tea from the corner of his mouth, smacked his lips and asked, "What is Khorne doing by imprisoning a group of psychic mages and wizards in his own domain?"

Russell looked around and saw no one else, so he said, "Make equipment."

"Khorne hates sorcery and magic, but in this universe, sorcery and magic are objective and unavoidable, so Khorne will bestow upon the warriors it admires armor and weapons with war runes and Khorne blessings. These weapons and equipment often have powerful strength, high spell resistance, and some special blessings can even make the wearer immune to certain types of magic... These equipment are all produced in the rune factory in the Khorne domain."

The followers of Khorne and the demons under the Blood God will capture psykers and wizards and send them to the Blood God's domain to create armor and weapons with various effects for the Blood God's warriors.

Russell took another sip of the milk tea in his cup and continued, "Did you see the collar on the Flesh Hound's neck? Every Flesh Hound wears a collar blessed by the Blood God, which can make them immune to most spell effects. So sometimes some brave warriors will put on the trophy dog ​​collar after killing a Flesh Hound..."

Gray Wind rolled his eyes in disgust.

"But those rune factories are not in operation now?" Gray Wind added: "Look, the upper reaches of the Brass River has stopped flowing, and the black smoke coming out of the factory is also very thin. It doesn't look like it is running for... It looks like berserkers from all over the galaxy are working overtime to build their armor.”

"Because Khorne can no longer completely dominate the 'war'." Russell raised his head and drank all the milk tea in the cup, and said: "Let me teach you something, Gray Wind."

Huifeng immediately perked up and listened attentively.

"The army is a dog tied to a chain called a supply line."

Russell gently placed the empty cup in Gray Wind's soft palm. He said: "Logistics supply is the most important part of a war, and now the authority of the war has been shattered, and Khorne has lost its control. Under the control of the Rune Factory, he can no longer enslave mages and psykers to produce various powerful enchanted equipment for his warriors."

Gray Wind lowered his head and licked the wet wall of the cup. His moist eyes looked at Russell's profile and said, "Who has the broken authority related to war logistics?"

"Lord of War—Robert Guilliman."

Chapter 328 Uninvited Guest

Strictly speaking, Guilliman, wearing the Helm of Domination, can now be regarded as Little Khorne. As long as he can secure the throne of the Lord of War with a glorious victory, he will be qualified to bestow blessings on the warriors under his command.

The runes of war ring for him, and all kinds of powerful enchanted equipment can be produced directly from the forge world of the human empire, and there is no need to worry about chaos corruption like the chaos weapons of the cultists - the Emperor Saint who has never heard of the state religion Things will be corrupted - even wearing war-blessed equipment can grant powerful spell damage reduction and warp resistance to the loyal warriors of the Imperium of Man.

So can Guilliman prevail?
