Hyperion, but in Warhammer 40K

"You should know that monopoly business is the most valuable. Of course, if you don't want to, we can take your fruits..."

"Take it and plant it. Don't think I don't know the technology."

Hearing this, Zhou Ye rolled his eyes and said, "It's just like a modern seed lock. All seeds cannot reproduce the next generation. It's a dream to want to break their monopoly."

It wasn't even a simple genetic seed lock, but he had something special in him.

Anyway, don't even think about growing the fruit you bought from him. This is genetically modified using his method. Even a biological sage wouldn't be able to decipher it.

"you……"

“Monopoly is the most profitable.”

Zhou Ye smiled and said that he already owned several worlds. However, they were all undeveloped, and those worlds were far from Mandeville Point. Without a jump orbit, there was no way to reach them. He was still relying on fruit trade with the Empire.

After all, monopoly is the most profitable, and Zhou Ye also understands this.

He was now trying very hard to integrate into this society that was not human, although he often felt that he might never be able to fully fit in. In this respect, he was just like Guilliman, who was always misunderstood as ambitious as a normal person among a group of spirited young men.

"It seems we are not on the same page, so goodbye."

Looking at the angry Soke in front of him, Zhou Ye also said with a smile. What was in his mind, apart from himself, only Zhou Ye knew.

Whether the treaty was signed or not was no longer important. Now his merchant ships had been locked. Their merchant dynasty had come out in full force, with dozens of spaceships surrounding them.

Within their clan, mercenaries whose combat power rivaled that of the Astra Militarum were already gearing up, ready to embark on a sacred boarding mission. They had to seize their planet and its resources.

There was no turning back, after all, the resources had already been mobilized. They had even given up a lot of resources, and if this deal didn't work out, the losses they would suffer would be incomparable.

It seemed that for some reason, their family had been afraid to enter the core areas and had always avoided competing with the merchant dynasties in the core areas. Now was their chance to turn things around.

Zhou Ye was also very clear about this. Now the 33 Terminator teams were ready. He was going to carry out indiscriminate boarding attacks on these huge merchant ships, although he felt that the Terminators were a bit bullying.

But that didn't matter. Whether the ship would be blown up or not was not important. If it was, we would just clean up the wreckage and get on with our work.

After saying this, Zhou Ye ignored the man's sinister gaze, jumped directly onto his transport plane, and quickly left the Quint Hive.

Soon, on the deck of Hyperion, Zhou Ye was sitting in his seat, looking at the hive below with great interest. As well as the spaceship that was slowly approaching him, he did not forget to shake a bottle of red wine in his hand.

"How many Ai-chan are there?"

"More than ten, but the machine spirits of those merchant ships are very active. They can prevent me from using your authority to corrupt them. If you want to corrupt them, you need to do it yourself."

"It doesn't matter. At worst, they'll all blow up."

Zhou Ye didn't care about this at all. The Machine Soul was no joke. After all, those guys could get you excess ammunition from the subspace, and you didn't even know where it came from.

Anyway, the Machine Soul is a very metaphysical thing, but it has a bit of Warp. The authority I gave Ai-chan was mainly for defense, to avoid encountering waste code attacks, and to ensure that she would not be affected by the Warp.

As for other attacks, I only gave them some. If it were a normal world, I would probably be able to hack their system. But this is Warhammer, and Machine Spirit is a metaphysical thing, so don't underestimate them.

Of course, Zhou Ye didn't care much about this. He just needed to get the documents. As for those so-called machine spirits, he probably needed to deal with them.

"Don't go directly into Mandeville Point. Leave it carefully first."

Feeling the tangible malevolence, Zhou Ye said nonchalantly. After all, this is Gwent. A direct confrontation between the two of them in Gwent's hive is somewhat unrealistic. Just stay away. No one will care about a fight between two businessmen.

"Then let's proceed according to plan and take their paperwork away quickly. I don't want to get into another weird, chaotic mess in this fucked-up world."

"Captain?"

"what?"

"I always feel like you're covered in flags."

"Emmmm..."

Hearing this, Zhou Ye decisively rolled his eyes. Although the world is full of surprises, you can't say he didn't do what he wanted, even though it always gave him a very raw feeling.

……

On the other side, Inquisitor Chris and Sword Guard veteran Metalos were looking at the control room in front of them.

"We're temporarily unable to contact the outside world. Astropaths say the Warp is extremely violent right now. It's even possible that a Chaos God has personally intervened, so..."

At this point Chris looked at Metalos, who was now a little anxious.

He had seen the deleted footage provided by the Space Wolves, and he knew that the composition of that pioneering planet was extremely complex. Even more terrifying were the personnel within it, a bunch of age-old Dreadnoughts.

Honestly, he was a bit frightened, especially since the Chapter Master wasn't even an Astartes. Though a bit short, only about three meters tall in armor, he was a formidable Primarch, commanding a multitude of age-old Dreadnoughts.

If word of this got out, the Ultramarines would be in turmoil. It was likely that a group of founding chapters would gather on Macragge to demand an explanation from Calgar. God be merciful, with this kind of setup, even if Guilliman woke up, he wouldn't dare claim it was his own successor chapter.

The elders said it was a daughter regiment of the Ultramarines and they were giving you face, and you really dared to accept it.

Unfortunately, Metalos could only watch, as the Warp was now riven by a powerful storm, stirred up by some blasphemous creatures. They couldn't enter, let alone send out the astropathic messages.

"We don't know when the next inquisitor will arrive, so now is a good time for us to clean up the corruption."

This was a bit of a headache for Chris. Honestly, he didn't really like getting involved in these things. Hives were always complex, and often their stability wasn't due to the wisdom of the planetary governor. Instead, it was simply the strange balance between the four evil cults and the so-called Genestealers.

The four major cults were unable to conduct large-scale sacrifices, and the Genestealers were being regularly purged by the cults, resulting in their limited numbers and inability to form a strong enough beacon to attract the Zerg fleet.

It won't be fun if you casually disrupt the balance.

Who knows which one will suddenly become powerful? In fact, it has already become powerful. The Slaanesh Cult almost performed a sacrifice, but was destroyed by the mysterious Astartes Chapter. As for the other planetary governor, he had no idea, and Chris didn't care.

Because many Astartes are like this, appearing quickly to kill the enemy, leaving behind some clues to let people know what happened, and then leaving again in a hurry, moving on to the next mission, until they die completely.

However, he also needed to conduct a survey of the hive city, but Chris did not have enough troops at the moment. This time they brought a U-regiment sword guard team, and they were not affiliated with him.

Although they were willing to help fight Chaos, they didn't have enough men. They only had one Storm Heir Regiment, numbering around 10,000 men.

Facing a massive hive city with a population of at least 100 billion, he felt he was short on manpower. Furthermore, the subspace storm was far too bizarre, and he felt like something wasn't simple here.

So now he also sent a distress signal to the surrounding area, hoping to get as much power from the empire as possible.

It's just that the current situation isn't very good, so how many people receive it depends on fate, but...

"L……"

But at this moment, a series of sounds rang out, indicating that their communication was connected.

"The Weepers received the distress signal and came to provide support."

"what?"

After seeing this news, everyone was a little confused.

"Leave now!!!"

At this moment, Metalos immediately said that he had heard of this warband. Calgar had wanted to give them an Iron Halo, but was rejected.

He knew the plight of these pitiful minions. He didn't know how to comment on their excessive protection of civilians. But he knew their situation was too miserable.

Moreover, he heard that they had encountered a major crisis not long ago, and now these people might be the only ones left in their regiment. Logically speaking, he didn't really want this regiment to be wiped out.

"We are here for all living beings. Now, more than a hundred billion people are in crisis. We would rather die with honor than stand by and watch."

Then, accompanied by a flash of light, the bright yellow-painted warship that Zhou Ye prepared for them also flew out.

Of course, this had been specially processed so that no trace of the jump would be noticed. Zhou Ye had given them such help, and they had already sworn allegiance to him until death. Therefore, they would rather destroy everything than expose this secret.

This time they just opened up a channel and then connected here from another direction. The AI that Zhou Ye prepared for them also captured the situation in the subspace and an astronomical message.

But before he could say anything, he saw a violent fluctuation on the Mandeville point. Then a fleet rushed out from inside in a mess, and then another message sounded on their channel.

"We are the Flesh Tearers Chapter, and we have encountered a warp storm and are forced to dock again."

Click! ! !

As the sound from the sound array system came, several extreme warriors loaded their guns with explosive bombs almost instantly.

The reason was simple: these people weren't labeled traitors like the Blood Knights were. It was simply because the consecutive labeling of two Blood Angels successor chapters as traitors had such a negative impact.

This group of people even attacked civilians, forcing the Space Wolves to use their military police duties again to attack them.

"We didn't betray..."

Obviously, this sound was accurately transmitted to the ears of the Flesh Tearers, and at this time the voice of their captain Desais also sounded.

"Why are you here!!!"

Hearing this, Chris couldn't help but rub his forehead. He knew a little about this infamous chapter. The Blood Knights were directly labeled as traitors. They were only slightly better than the Blood Knights, but that was definitely limited.

Just looking at its scale...

This chapter might have gone all out, their strength was limited. Furthermore, if he remembered correctly, the Weepers seemed to be a successor to the Blood Angels, so if a fight broke out, they might not be sure who would side with them.

"We have received the prophecy of the Great Librarian Mephisto and are now on our way to Baal. We have encountered a warp storm and are forced to leave this stable Mandeville Point."

"You guys stay where you are and wait for the subspace storm to end..."

But before they could finish their words, they saw two more spaceships rushing out of the warp, one with the Dark Angels' symbol on it, and the other with the Black Templars'.

It seems that there are enough people, enough for him to carry out a special cleanup operation on Quint below.

Chris also thought the situation was very good. As for the other side of the planet...

……

Zhou Ye didn't pay much attention to the mess in the subspace. After all, this was an area with a lot of people coming and going. There was also a stable Mandeville Point, and many ships came and went.

At this moment, his attention was focused on the several ships behind him. Once he finished this deal, he would be rich. When the time came, he could renovate them and use them as trading ships, traveling along his own star tracks. He could connect the worlds together and conduct sufficient trade.

"They're all here..."

Looking at those ships, Zhou Ye was not in a hurry. He led them deep into the starry sky, and everything was progressing steadily according to his plan.

However, at this moment, on the flagship of the Oliveira family, in the warehouse where the documents were stored, a dark snake shadow was slowly expanding.

73

Chapter 73 Repent, repent to me.

In the luxurious but religious cabin, Sok Oliveira was looking at the people in front of him.

At this moment, the delicious wine was opened, and the rich aroma filled the entire room. Everyone showed an intoxicated look. Warhammer was a world extremely lacking in enjoyment and entertainment.

This delicious wine is enough to drive people crazy, but they care more about what is behind this glass of wine.

"Apparently, that young businessman was lucky enough to stumble upon a special garden world. That's the hometown of our Oliveira family, a place we've never even seen before."

Feeling the fragrance of the wine, Danak Oliveira's face was filled with longing for the planet he didn't know.

"Such a wonderful world should provide the Empire with more high-quality goods. Failure to do so would be a blasphemy against the Golden Throne. Now that it has been occupied by heretics, the Oliveira family has every reason to return it to the embrace of the Divine Emperor."

As the patriarch of the Oliveira family, Danak's old face also showed a hint of happy smile.

With the Divine Emperor's blessing, their family had encountered a planet with such treasures during their most difficult time. This would mark the beginning of their family's renewed greatness. They only needed to transport the wine to Holy Terra, which would be enough for them to reap enormous profits.

Sok, the man who discovered the treasure, would inherit his position and become the new chieftain. True, he was already over three hundred years old, and he planned to spend the rest of his life in peace and contentment in his hometown, a place he had yet to visit.

Sok will lead the family and make it great again.

"Yes, all of the family's warships have been dispatched. Three hundred thousand of the family's private soldiers are ready, all of whom were once elite IGs. The enemy only has one merchant ship. This will be a glorious victory."

At this time, Soke also said respectfully to the old man in front of him, he knew that he would get the position he had always dreamed of. Of course, the premise is that he must do these things well and not make any mistakes.

Will this fail? The answer is of course not.

How could a small, broken ship possibly stand in the way of his 300,000-strong IG army? Such strength was enough to destroy everything a planetary governor had, showing him the cruelty and wrath of the Empire.

only……

"This isn't enough, you want more."

At this moment, Sok felt a voice echoing in his mind, and then a series of images appeared before him. He led his family to victory after victory, and he obtained mountains of fruit and wine. He brought these specialties safely into Holy Terra, and he had gained enormous wealth.

He used his wealth to purchase a huge fleet, and his family owned more planets. An endless sense of glory emerged from his heart.

"Indeed, this is not enough. I want more, so let me start with you."

At this moment, Thoke looked at the tiny ship in the distance. This wasn't the right time yet. This place was too close to the Gwent Hive. If you fought in the starry sky, no one would care. But if you fought in the heart of a planet in the Empire, it wouldn't be so easy. Some things weighed a thousand pounds, and even a few pounds wouldn't stop them.

After all, they are all still people of the Empire, and the civilians of the Empire must believe that they are all united under the Emperor.

Although his heart was burning with anxiety, Sok remained rational. Although glory was beckoning him, he needed to remain calm to achieve it.

"I want to get away from the Quint Hive and then enter the warp. It's wishful thinking... and God helps me."

Sok was extremely excited at this moment. Just when their fleet had just left the warp less than one system away, a violent storm blew up in the warp. Now he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

By now, that person must have a look of fear on his face, as he has no way to retreat.

If they'd stayed in the Hive, they'd have held back a bit, but he was too young. He was smart, but only slightly so. He'd left the moment he saw the situation wasn't right. He'd wanted to leave before he could react, but unfortunately, they hadn't intended to let him go from the start.
