Travel to Warhammer 40K with Grey Wind

The surrounding psychic energy fluctuated slightly with Russell's thoughts, and then a small angular thing floated out from his cloak and floated to Alexei's chest.

"What is this...?" Alexei was a little confused.

Floating in front of her was a tiny crystal the size of a finger. Gray mist flowed inside the clear crystal, giving people a weird and profound feeling.

"This is a small fragment of the 'Zero Soul Stone', connected to the 'void' you peeked at before." Russell said lightly:

"The void's siphon effect will devour and shield all power related to the Warp, and this soul stone fragment can remember and identify your psychic wavelength. In short, it can shield you from interference from the Warp to a certain extent without weakening your own psychic power."

Alexei pursed her lips and held the soul stone fragment in her palm with great care. She had already realized how precious this fragment was.

"But the purpose of this fragment itself is secondary... It is actually a token. If you show it to the planetary governor of Faya, he will understand everything, and you will get what the Emperor wants."

Russell added: "Consider this my gift to you, considering that the Emperor and I are both human."

"I understand, thank you for your generosity." Alexei bowed his head deeply and bowed to him humbly.

"That's it, I have to go deal with the bugs now, we'll see each other later." Russell said, breaking the mental connection with Alexei.

The feeling of her soul being enveloped by tenderness suddenly dissipated. Alexei could not help but feel a moment of loss, but she quickly gathered her emotions and gave Russell a polite smile: "I look forward to seeing you next time, but then, what should we call you?"

That's true... Russell thought for a moment and said, "I think you can call me the Star-Ballist."

Star-shooter?"

"You will soon understand the meaning of this name." Russell left these last words and disappeared into the deep darkness of the throne room.

As soon as he disappeared, Alexei fell to the ground with a thud.

The prophetess' back was soaked, with large beads of sweat rolling down her forehead. Russell would never know how much psychological pressure the calm conversation just now had put on this psychic. She held the Zero Crystal tightly in both hands against her chest, breathing heavily with lingering fear.

"Star Bullet...Star Bullet...Star Bullet?"

In the ruined corridor outside the throne room, the pharmacists who arrived later were recovering gene seeds from the bodies of their battle brothers, while the injured warriors who were not dead left the fortress in troop transports and returned to the flagship, Flame of Repentance, for treatment.

——This is amazing, although these battle brothers died heroically in the battle with the Chaos Daemons, their gene seeds are extremely pure, without any trace of contamination.

As for Chapter Master Miraak, he only received simple treatment to stabilize his injuries. He had no time to grieve for the lost battle brothers. Instead, he chose to quickly communicate with the Grey Knight Captain "Dimitri" who came here about his experience in the throne room and the process of how Bao, who was corrupted into a Nurgle Daemon, was killed by the mysterious psychic alone.

The word he used was "behead" rather than "exile."

The Grey Knights, who were most sensitive to demonic matters, naturally noticed this. Dimitri asked in detail about the entire battle, and eventually focused on the two weapons that the mysterious man had always carried with him.

Weapons that can truly kill demons are extremely rare, and even Dimitri knows only a handful of them.

Just as they were about to discuss the next step regarding the current situation, a graceful figure in a white robe walked out of the throne room.

Dimitri immediately led the Grey Knights and Miraak to meet them, but saw that the prophetess's face was pale, as if she had been greatly frightened by something.

Alexei held a small crystal with illusory mist in his palm and said weakly, "Send me to Faya immediately, immediately..."

Chapter 37 Next Stage

When Russell left the underground fortress and returned to the lunar surface, the surface of the battle moon was already riddled with holes.

The war with the orcs quickly gained the upper hand as the force field collapsed, and then won the victory. With the strong support of the Cyberlux battle body, it went incredibly smoothly.

The troops on the ground were unaware of the changes happening underground. They only knew that they had won this great holy war for the Lord of mankind, and they cheered, jumped for joy, and cried bitterly for it.

Russell looked up and saw the huge, dilapidated space station and the battleship Fire of Repentance, which was more than 20 kilometers long, quietly parked above the battle moon. Countless transport planes were running around in the air and on the ground. The pilots needed to evacuate as many troops on the ground as possible before the battle moon collapsed.

——The previous extremely high-intensity war has destroyed several steel continents on the surface of the moon. After losing the force field support, this celestial weapon that was forcibly pieced together is about to disintegrate.

The Mechanics who came to Faya with the Martyrs were particularly friendly at this time. They noticed with care that there was no transport ship on the Seekers Space Station that could carry the Cyberlux warplanes back to the hangar, so they volunteered to help their allies solve this problem.

They forcibly diverted the transport planes that were supposed to evacuate their own Titan Legion first, and with extremely high efficiency transported the mottled war bodies that had been baptized by war away, time after time, without any complaints.

Gray Wind's impression of the Mechanical Repair Club has changed greatly. There are still many good people among the engine oil guys.

Then it saw that the armored transport carrying the war body did not come towards the Seeker at all, but went straight into the hangar of a large scientific research ship with the gear flag of the Mechanical Engineering Society hanging on it.

"Look at you, you've suffered a loss, haven't you?" After reconnecting the communication channel, the first thing Russell did was to criticize Gray Wind: "Don't trust others easily, even those you've fought with."

Gray Wind was very frustrated: "I'm sorry, Marshal..."

If it didn't cooperate foolishly, the people from the Mechanical Repair Society would not be able to load the war body onto the ship and take it away smoothly.

Ultimately, Gray Wind trusted these comrades who fought side by side with him a little too much. It had never occurred to him that his equipment would be stolen by his comrades after a fight. This was truly beyond his cognition.

"I'll take care of it, but before that I need to know how the pest control preparations are going?" Russell asked.

Gray Wind immediately stopped being depressed and started reporting in a clear working tone: "Preliminary preparations have been completed and we can move on to the next stage at any time. Marshal, have you got the treasure?"

"It's already in hand." Russell was talking to Gray Wind while he touched a transport plane belonging to the Mechanical Repair Society.

The space was densely packed with transport planes carrying evacuated soldiers, like a dense school of fish in the ocean, leaving the gradually collapsing battle moon behind. Russell quietly blended in among them and drove directly to the Seekers space station with the Imperial Navy's transport plane formation.

At this time, a large number of ships were anchored in the fleet anchorage at the bottom of the space station for repairs. The technical priests and technicians from Faya were doing their repair work conscientiously, and did not notice that their own combat bodies had been ambushed.

Russell got off the transport plane in a remote corner where no one noticed him and disappeared quietly into the corridor.

Two minutes later, Russell arrived at the top floor of the space station, opened a hatch, and walked straight into the control room.

The room was still densely packed with wires and instruments, but it also had an inexplicable sense of messy beauty, and was in the duality of being messy and tidy as usual. However, as soon as he entered the door, something caught Russell's attention:

The nominal stationmaster of the Seeker, Technical Priest Gauss, was currently half lying on his chair, motionless, but still breathing, so he was not dead.

Moving your gaze further forward, you can see a miniature version of Little Gray Wind, whose height and size have shrunk. It is staring at the Mechanical Research Ship in front of it with a sad face, looking very angry.

"Why did Gauss faint? Did you do it? Or..."

Russell didn't ask why Gray Wind became smaller, he could probably guess the reason.

"Marshal~"

Hearing his voice, Huifeng's sad expression disappeared and he came up to him happily, reporting:

"When I took over the Seekers' system, Gauss suddenly laughed for no reason and said he understood, knew, and so on... Then he shouted words like iron man and hatred while attacking me."

After saying that, Huifeng pointed at Gauss who had fainted in his seat and said, "In order to prevent interference with the operation, I knocked him out. His life is not in danger...but his reaction is really strange. Marshal, do you know what's going on?"

Russell suppressed the urge to laugh and said, "This is the mess left over from the Dark Technology Era. It's likely that he somehow saw through your biological disguise. However, the most urgent task now is to eliminate the insects. I'll tell you about the background of the Dark Technology Era when I have time."

Looking at the happy Gray Wind, Russell held the remains of Bao in his hand in front of Gray Wind and said, "This is the treasure that made the orcs rise quickly and made humans form a huge expedition fleet to fight for it."

Gray Wind's eyes rolled, and it took him a few seconds to recognize what it was. "It turned out to be Bao... It was seriously injured, and it seems to have undergone some kind of benign genetic mutation, and is rapidly repairing its injuries."

"Bao took root in a large orc, forming a strange symbiotic relationship. The two exchanged DNA and mutated genes to a certain extent." Russell said, "Bao basically acquired the orc's reproduction and regeneration speed, and the orc's adaptability was greatly enhanced. In addition, the orc gained Bao's powerful environmental transformation ability, and could mass-produce troops on the Death Planet."

"Anyway, now that Bao is in our hands, we can start working on the next phase of our plan," Russell continued.

Grey Wind took the broken body of Bao from Russell's hands. Even though it was incomplete, it was still much taller than him. He stood there without moving.

It raised its head and looked up at Russell's face with wide eyes, as if it was expecting something.

Russell bent down and gently rubbed the head of the miniature Gray Wind in front of him with one hand: "You did a good job in the previous battle. Thank you for your hard work."

Huifeng then smiled with satisfaction and quickly left the control room with Bao.

After Grey Wind left, Russell casually walked to the unconscious Gauss. The situation just now made him a little surprised, but also relieved.

At the same time, in the silent space, the battle moon was collapsing.

Its plates broke, its core collapsed, and countless green warships disintegrated in space. The silent and cold space turned into the largest meat grinder at this moment.

The few remaining ships of the Pilgrim Fleet scattered and began to carpet-wipe the defeated orc remnants.

The main force followed the Martyr Fleet, which was better equipped and organized, and headed out of the gravity well of the Faya galaxy without stopping.

Because the bugs are coming.

The shadow of the Hive Mind is approaching Faya. An eternally echoing hunger signal is heard in the Warp. Countless biological warships emerge from the deep darkness outside the halo, floating forward with their tentacles swinging.

The prophetess's prophecy made them realize that the Zerg was also attracted here by the treasure in the hands of the orcs.

They are hungry, they are salivating, they are impatient, they... will devour all life.

Chapter 38 Leaving

If the situation had developed as normal, when the Zerg arrived, the Imperial troops and the Orcs should still be fighting fiercely in the airspace of the Second Moon.

The orc warlord with the support of countless greenskins will not be defeated and killed so quickly in the confrontation with Nurgle. The battle should have been stalemate until the arrival of the Zerg. The three forces will engage in a complicated melee in Faya.

However, a variable broke the deadlock and changed the original course of events.

18 Cyberlux combat machines with specifications equivalent to those of the Warlord-class Titans landed on the lunar surface with great force. Their fierce firepower helped humans win victory after victory in the landing battle.

The orc warlords, weakened by the sharp drop in the number of orcs, were defeated more quickly. In addition, Russell used the pioneer's treasure "Votaum Reality Translucent" to modify reality and forcibly killed the Nurgle demon who was hosting Bao, which completely changed the situation in Faya.

For ordinary Imperial Navy captains, they did not know the battle that took place deep in the battle moon, let alone the inside story of the "Last Bao". The news they received was that the Prophet was about to obtain what the Emperor wanted, and they must stop the Zerg outside of Faya at all costs and buy time.

The main ship Fire of Repentance took the lead, and every sailor in the scarred Martyr Corps was ready to sacrifice his life, sacrifice his blood to the God-Emperor, and return his soul to the Golden Throne.

But what none of them noticed was that beyond the Zerg fleet that blocked out the sky and the mighty martyr fleet, a thin silver streak of light suddenly streaked across the vast deep sky.

It was a small, streamlined Gray Gu fighter, inside which was a strange humanoid creature with a broken body but full of life.

The Gray Goo fighter took Bao away from Faya at a very fast speed, activated the jump engine and jumped to another distant galaxy. So the human fleet, which was preparing for battle, soon found to its surprise that the Zerg fleet, which was about to destroy the city, had turned around.

Chapter Master Miraak hurried back to the command room and was receiving treatment from the pharmacist while looking at the star map.

The intelligence sent back by the vanguard reconnaissance aircraft showed that the Zerg Hive Fleet that had pressed into the outskirts of the Faya galaxy suddenly adjusted its direction shortly before entering the galaxy. They seemed to be pursuing something and shifted their course as a whole, leaving Faya behind and going away.

A terminal crisis ended on its own before it even happened.

The departure of the Zerg made everyone in the command room secretly relieved, but at the same time they were very confused.

Although the state religion priests in the team have begun to expound the doctrine, trying to proclaim the retreat of the Zerg as a miracle of the Emperor, that can only fool the grassroots soldiers with poor education levels.

The truly knowledgeable people in the fleet can judge that the arrival and departure of this hive fleet all have extremely obvious purpose.

What attracted the swarm of insects to Faya was the treasure predicted by the prophetess.

So what made them leave Fallas?

The survivors who survived the battle with the demon Bao already have a vague answer in their hearts.

After the Zerg left, the Martyr Legion stationed most of its forces in an asteroid belt at the edge of the galaxy just in case.

Under instructions personally given by Chapter Master Miraak, a small reconnaissance team consisting of elite mortals, astropaths, navigators, and several Astartes Brothers were secretly dispatched. They flew away from Faya in a special high-speed strike craft, chasing the departing Zerg from a distance and closely observing its movements.

As for the ships and wounded that were severely damaged in the previous naval battle, they went to Fallas in groups for repairs and treatment.

Yes, this barren planet located on the eastern frontier of the Ultramarine is actually capable of providing repairs and supplies to the interstellar fleet.
