The Bizarre Adventures of Cloud Hammer

"I found it. Everyone, take a look at the message I sent." Gloria sent the location of a planet she found to everyone.

Everyone looked and saw that the planet was in a galaxy next to the Blackstone Fortress, generally located on the edge of the Taiping star field, just a little bit out of the range of the Astronomican.

Ou Ge: "Is there anything special about this planet?"

"This planet has been broadcasting outward all the time, and it's a very old-fashioned method. Basically, it can only be transmitted near a planet. It will be ineffective beyond this range." Gloria didn't expect that there would be civilizations in the Warhammer 40k universe that used such backward means of information dissemination. She almost missed this planet.

"But that's not important. Guess what the content of this broadcast is?"

Ah Wei: "Stop keeping me in suspense and just say it directly."

"How come there's no mystery at all? I translated their language, and what this civilization said in the broadcast was—" Gloria deliberately lengthened her voice.

"Welcome our alien friends to visit Osa."

Hiss - this content made everyone gasp. Whose general was this who dared to send such a message that was tantamount to asking for death in the Warhammer 40k universe?

Luochen: "How could there be such idiots in this galaxy? Didn't they trick people into going over and killing them?"

It’s not Luochen’s fault for thinking too badly of this civilization, but the universe itself is so bad. How could this race that maintains goodwill towards the outside world not be wiped out by the empire?

Apu: "Not necessarily. Judging from the location of this planet, it is very likely a world that has not been discovered by the Empire."

The Empire's exploration of the Taiping star field has always been incomplete, and it is indeed possible that there are "slippery fish". Moreover, the civilization on this planet is not necessarily alien, but may be a branch of humans that lost contact in the Old Night Era.

"Just go and take a look and you'll know. You have nothing to do anyway, right?" During the incident when Gloria absorbed the Black Stone Fortress, everyone could go to this planet to observe. If it was really a cosmic trap, they could also teach these guys a lesson.

Ah Wei: "The problem is, Gloria, aren't you eating? How can we get across without a boat?"

"I'm going to show you my new feature."

Under Gloria's control, a stream of energy separated from the Blue Silver Sword, and a large amount of ship fragments floating around the Black Stone Fortress were sucked into this energy. Then, it seemed as if a pair of invisible hands reshaped this energy. Soon after, the energy stabilized, and a Sword-class frigate emerged from the dissipated energy.

"Oh my god, she gave birth!" Everyone said in shock as they looked at the sword-class frigate that appeared. When would Gloria "give birth" to a small boat?

"Get lost!" Gloria was so angry at what everyone said that she laughed, "I just rebuilt a boat."

"Gloria, when did you learn to build a boat?"

"Always able to. Didn't I tell you that as long as I have enough energy, I can create anything you remember?"

After absorbing the energy from Isil and the entire Blackrock Fortress, Gloria's stored energy is much more than when she first arrived. Although she still has a long way to go before returning home, she no longer has to be as frugal as before.

Er Yu: "I've always had a question. Gloria, you said you can create anything in our memory. This scope shouldn't be limited to the Warhammer 40k universe, right?"

"It's not limited, but at most we can only make some small gadgets. If we make a whole star destroyer or something, those guys will find it."

Gloria explained to everyone that things that did not belong to the current world could easily attract the attention of powerful beings, otherwise why would she disguise herself as a ship in Warhammer 40k? In everyone's memory, there were many warships stronger than the Emperor's Vision, and since they were all gadgets, not many of them were better than the things in Warhammer 40k.

Ah Wei: "Gloria, what do you mean by gadgets?"

"Probably only up to the Titan unit."

Luochen: "Titan units, doesn't that mean..."

Ou Ge: "Can we build Gundams and these?"

When it comes to Titan units, everyone immediately thinks of those famous robot IPs from the 3K era, such as Gundam, Getter, King Gim, and Gurren Lagann...

"Don't think too much, only the real ones!" Gloria immediately saw what these guys were thinking. How could she possibly come up with those outrageous things? The energy alone was far from enough. Even if the energy was enough, I'm afraid the four vendors and the yellow-skinned man would have slapped her down as soon as she started to make them.

Xianyu: "Our requirements are not high. Unicorn is fine. This is also realistic."

"PASS! This is a real thing! I unilaterally declare that Unicorn has been expelled from UC."

While everyone was immersed in the joy of being able to drive a Gundam in Warhammer 40k, Apu raised a question:

"Even if we want to build a Gundam, we'll definitely have to use 40k materials."

Apoo also doesn't think that the materials in the realistic Gundam are better than those in Warhammer 40k. Moreover, if the materials in Warhammer 40K are used to build the Gundam, will the performance of the Gundam be better?

"Yes, to increase their stealth, things like the Gundam will be replaced with 40K materials, and some problematic technologies will also be replaced, like the Psycho-Frame, which will be replaced with the Psionic-Frame."

Ou Ge: "What about the Minovsky particles? They are the foundation of the Zaku and Gundam projects."

"There are some rice grains, so don't worry about that."

Luochen: "No, without the telepathic frame, how can we NTs use our powers?"

"You are a bunch of NewTypes. Even if you have a telepathic frame, can you use it? The psychic frame is almost enough. Besides, you are the only one who can use it, Luochen." Gloria said.

Appu: "Is this Psyframe Gundam similar to the Omen Order's Psy Titan?"

"It's still quite a bit different. At least the Psycho Gundam doesn't need to burn a Psycho. Even without the Psycho Frame, it can be driven as a normal Gundam."

Luochen: "Hehe, now I can really use Zaku to save unimaginable lives."

Wei: "Becoming an Astartes and being able to drive a Gundam is double the joy~"

Everyone began to discuss the uses of Gundam. In ground combat, Gundam has better maneuverability than the Knights and Titans of the Empire, but it cannot replace the ecological niche of the Knights and Titans in terms of firepower. However, since the birth of Gundam/Zaku, the main battlefield has never been on the ground, but in space!

Just think about how terrifying a high-firepower Titan unit that can maneuver freely in space and penetrate into the void shield to cause damage to the battleship itself is. Gundam/Zaku has changed the space battle landscape of the UC world since its birth, and it can do the same in Warhammer 40K.

Apu: "These allow us to fight space battles without having to stay in the ship and wait for boarding."

Ou Ge: "I can't imagine how exciting the oil guy's expression would be when he sees a Titan that can fly in space."

"Okay, I've said almost everything I need to say. Hurry and get to that planet. I want to eat in peace."

Ah Wei: "At least let us touch the Gundam first, please, if there is no Gundam..."

"Let's talk about it when I get back. I still need to think about what technologies I can't bring to this world."

After saying that, Gloria teleported everyone to the Sword-class frigate and headed for the planet she discovered called Osa.

This sword-class frigate made by Gloria had all the functions it should have. At superluminal speed, it didn't take long for everyone to arrive at the galaxy where Osa was.

This galaxy has only one star like the solar system. There are five planets in the galaxy, but except for the planet called Osa, there is no life reaction.

The Sword-class frigate arrived near Osa in stealth mode. Most of the area of this planet is occupied by ocean. There is only one continent suitable for human habitation, which is about the same size as the American continent. The rest are islands of varying sizes.

Everyone noticed that there were some creatures in the orbit of Osa's planet. Judging from their size and structure, they did not look like orbital weapons, but more like some kind of satellite.

Ou Ge: "Are those things in orbit satellites?"

"It's a satellite with a loudspeaker on it. This is what I call a backward broadcasting method," Gloria replied.

Apu: "It's true... No, Gloria, aren't you eating?"

"I'm eating. I didn't say you can't look at your phone while eating."

The Sword-class frigate is a terminal for Gloria, and she can connect her consciousness to it at any time.

"I've conducted a comprehensive scan of this planet. The civilization here is probably at the level of Earth in the 1980s or 1990s, right in the middle of a technological explosion."

Xianyu: "Didn't even the mother planet appear in the 1980s and 1990s?"

"Yes, so their understanding of the universe is limited to their own, and they have beautiful expectations for alien civilizations, just like the Earth you live on."

"..."

In Warhammer 40K, there are beautiful expectations for alien civilizations. What a hellish joke.

Luochen: "What about the natives up there? Are they humans or aliens?"

"Just take a look."

Gloria projected an image. It was a humanoid creature that looked like some kind of fish. It had scales on its body similar to those of fish, and its head was beginning to take on a human shape, but it was still very different from humans.

According to the Empire's skull identification method, this race is undoubtedly alien!

(40K's space battles are too boring, either battleships bombarding each other or boarding, so I added some things, otherwise Gothic War would be really hard to write)

Chapter 98 Prelude (revised)

"Welcome our alien friends to visit Osa——"

Listening to the broadcast content translated by Gloria, everyone fell into thought. An alien race that couldn't even start in Warhammer 40k and had naive ideas about the universe, only extinction was waiting for them. It would be a good thing if they could die cleanly in this historical universe, but they were afraid of encountering someone like Black Bean Sprout, who would be unable to live or die.

"No matter how you look at it, it looks like an alien. Are there any genetic similarities between them and humans?" Brother Ou asked, trying to find some chance for this race to survive.

"Not at all. This race evolved from fish in the oceans of this planet and has nothing to do with humans."

Gloria's answer undoubtedly sentenced this race to death in the human empire. The skulls were very different and the gene seeds were not similar. If they wanted to survive in the human empire, they could only gamble on whether they were useful to the Warhammer humans.

Gloria then added a more "horrifying" piece of news:

"I've thoroughly analyzed the genes of this race. Their tissues can be used as medicine to heal humans, and the results seem quite good."

"..."

An alien race that has an effect on the human body? This time, there's really no way out.

"Then send it. At least this alien race is hopeless in the human empire." Apu showed a look of despair. Can this race still survive?

The only solution now is for this race to join the Tau Empire immediately, and under the protection of the Tau Empire, they can win a glimmer of hope for their civilization and race. But the problem is that this planet called Osa is in the Taiping star field, and the Tau Empire is in the Ultramarine star field. The two sides are separated by a distance of more than 180,000 miles, and at this time the Tau Empire has not even started to expand, nor has it officially stepped into the stage of the Milky Way.

Ah Wei: "What should we do now? Should we just leave this race alone?"

Ou Ge: "But we moved Blackstone Fortress, so we have to do something about it."

The fact that the galaxy where Osa is located has never been discovered has a lot to do with the Blackstone Fortress. The existence of the Blackstone Fortress also protects the surrounding galaxies, making them less likely to be discovered by the outside world. Now that the Blackstone Fortress has been absorbed by Gloria, this galaxy is no longer protected, and the exploration fleets of the Human Empire and other races may discover it in the future.

"I have a way to do this. After absorbing the Black Stone Fortress, I can hide this galaxy. It won't be discovered by outsiders for at least a few thousand years." Gloria gave the method.

Thousands of years have passed. Assuming that the Milky Way is still there, this race should have developed to the point where they can leave their home planet and begin exploring this dangerous galaxy. They may face unprecedented tests, but by then it will have nothing to do with everyone else because they have already returned home. Helping a race develop safely for thousands of years in Warhammer 40k is considered to be doing their utmost.

"Just do it."

The crowd was not planning to experience the customs and culture of this planet, so they returned to the Blue Silver Sword. After teleporting everyone back to the Blue Silver Sword, Gloria absorbed the Sword-class frigate into her body.

Er Yu: "Gloria, since you can build a new ship, can't you build a team for us?"

"Of course it is possible, but using only energy will have huge limitations." Gloria said. A ship built with energy, like the Blue Silver Sword, cannot be boarded by 40k locals. It is easy for the four vendors and the yellow-skinned man to follow the clues and find the door. In the future, everyone will definitely encounter the trouble of having to let people get on the ship. This problem must be solved.

Ah Wei: "Gloria, you are so smart, you must have thought of a solution, right?"

Xianyu: "Use your amazing wisdom to think of a solution, Gloria. I'm still waiting for one person to lead a fleet."

"Have you finally understood my wisdom? I really can't do anything with you. Of course there is a solution."

If you want a ship that can carry people, you need to use the Warhammer 40k method, that is, rely on manpower and material resources to slowly build a ship, so everyone first needs to get an operations base that can be used as a shipyard, and there is no need to worry about resources and materials. Gloria cannot use energy to build a ship directly, but it does not say that materials made from energy cannot be used to build a ship. This is a bug.

However, since you are using a shipyard, you don't have to worry about the manufacturing speed, but it will definitely be much faster than the Oil Man. As long as you have enough energy, you don't have to worry about resources and materials. By then, you can make dozens of Queen of Glory-class ships.

Ou Ge: "The base of operations is easy. We can just find a deserted planet."

The operation base is the least of our worries. We should find a world that will not be discovered by the Empire. No matter how bad the environment is, we can use a planet-shaping device to transform it into a garden world.

"I think your first consideration is not the base of operations, but finding a way to get more energy. If you want a fleet, energy is essential."

Apu: "Gloria, aren't you eating the Black Stone Fortress? Isn't the energy enough?"

"There's a lot of energy, but don't you forget what our main goal is?"

Everyone's main goal has always been to collect enough energy to return home, rather than to build a large fleet. Most of the energy must be preserved so that it can be used in case of danger. There is actually not that much energy available for everyone to use.

"But where are we going to get the energy..."

As everyone was thinking about it, Luochen proposed an idea:

"I do have an idea, it depends on whether you are willing or not."

"Elaborate?"

"Do you remember what the most recent major event was?" Luo Chen asked everyone.

"Gothic War, you don't mean to..." Brother Ou realized Luochen's thoughts.

"That's right, let's go fight Empire and Brother Dun's Autumn Wind."

In the Gothic War, there were six Black Stone Fortresses. Brother Dun took two of them, one was destroyed by a suicide attack by the Imperial Navy, and three were controlled to self-destruct. What a waste. It would be better to use them to feed Gloria.

"But didn't we agree not to participate in major events?" Eryu said.

"That was true at the beginning, but now that we've become the butterflies stirring up the storm, why should we still care about whether or not to participate in major events?" Luochen repeated what Brother Ou had said during their previous review. Meeting Fulgrim on Isil, killing the archdemon, and delivering the seeds—aren't these events big enough? I'm afraid several factions have already been eyeing them.

Now Gloria is no longer the same person she used to be. She is full of energy and can keep everyone safe even in big events. She is also very skilled at escaping, so it is impossible to catch them.

"Anyway, neither the Empire nor Brother Dun can take up six Black Stone Fortresses. We can't just watch all this energy go to waste." Luo Chen continued to persuade.

Finally, everyone voted to decide whether to participate in the Gothic War.

Ou Ge: "If we really go to the Gothic War, we will be exposed to the Empire and Chaos. I personally feel that it is not appropriate, so I am against going to the Gothic War."

Eryu: "I object too."
