I cultivate mushrooms in warhammer
#79 - The rich family's heritage (four updates, please read 14)
The holographic image froze on the moment the trumpets blared throughout the Noble Council.
Delton said in a measured tone:
“Everyone, the scene you just saw is a live broadcast from the Noble Council. According to Lord Voges' plan before the sweep began, the hunt-nobles from various families will officially enter the ruins in three hours.”
Delton pressed the switch button.
The holographic screen flickered a few times, and a three-dimensional map of the ruins and under-hive popped up.
The map was incomplete, with about two-thirds of it blank.
Next to the map, a list of personnel from the Reconciliation Church appeared, detailed and precise, down to the names, ages, and origins of each Father within the church.
“As you can see, the intelligence on the map and the cultist list comes from the previously captured Fathers. I have transmitted this information to your data-slates, which you can view after the meeting. Now, let's get to the point.”
Delton pressed the switch button again.
The map and list disappeared, and five half-length portraits appeared.
These five people, four men and one woman, were luxuriously dressed, with outstanding temperaments, and their eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Lord Voges, looking to be in their early twenties.
“All of you are Lord Voges' special agents and should strive for honor for the Voges family's hunt-nobles. The reason for gathering you here this time is for an important matter concerning the Voges family's honor.”
Delton's words were impeccable.
The governor's special agents had the governor's backing, but the governor wouldn't always be the fat old man sitting in the lord's seat at this moment.
When the current lord could no longer manage, an heir would naturally take over.
The four men and one woman appearing on the holographic screen were the Voges family's hunt-nobles.
If they established military merits in the sweep, their own status would rise accordingly.
As the saying goes, the father is honored by his son.
If the descendants' status rose, then their parents could naturally take advantage of their children's advantages to rise step by step.
Reflected in the order of succession to the lord's seat, it meant an increase in the order of inheritance.
Each promotion of one position was equivalent to outliving a peer.
The current Lord Voges was the first in line to inherit, and the fathers of the five young people on the holographic screen were the second to sixth in line.
Everyone present could imagine how fierce the competition between the five of them would be.
“The five hunt-nobles of the Voges family each need a group of experienced special agents to scout the ruins and under-hive. I gave your special agent identity information and service records to the governor, who arranged candidates for the five hunt-nobles. Now the results are out.”
Delton operated his data-slate a few times.
The special agents successively received messages pushed by their superiors.
Li Nuo opened the information to check.
He had been assigned by Lord Voges to a hunt-noble named Augusge Gamin Voges.
Augusge came from the Gamin branch of the Voges family, and his father, Gamin Voges, was the sixth in line to inherit the Voges family.
As a transmigrator, Li Nuo subconsciously judged Augusge through his facial features.
Thin lips, sanpaku eyes, although handsome in appearance, revealed a hint of coldness.
Augusge was probably not easy to get along with.
Li Nuo sincerely hoped that the theory of physiognomy didn't work in the Warhammer world.
However, to his disappointment, physiognomy still had some market in other worlds, as Tallenzo had proven.
Tallenzo, who was next to him, glanced at Li Nuo's data-slate and clicked his tongue, with a hint of pity in his voice:
“Kang Wen, you're in for trouble. Augusge is the most critical of these five. He won't reward you for your merits, but if you make a mistake, he will definitely punish you.”
“Well, it seems I have to try not to make mistakes. Who were you assigned to?” Li Nuo turned his head to look and couldn't help but sigh that Tallenzo was lucky.
He was chosen by Tido Voges.
This female hunt-noble had no middle name, meaning she came from the main branch of the Voges family, not a descendant of a branch member, and had a direct blood relationship with the current Lord Voges.
Bringing honor to Tido was equivalent to bringing honor to Lord Voges, and the benefits would be abundant.
“I'm so envious, why don't we switch?” Li Nuo joked.
“Dream on.” Tallenzo said triumphantly, shaking his head:
“I have to find Father Tutkali to maintain my neural induction piston and hormone pump. Maybe this Tido will take a fancy to me, then wouldn't I soar to the sky.”
I pee yellow, but I'm afraid you'll enjoy it, so I won't wake you up… Li Nuo secretly complained and forced a smile, saying:
“Okay, okay, okay. When you soar to the sky, don't forget to give your brother a hand.”
“Easy, easy, hehehe.”
The two exchanged information with Wick, Mona, and others who were sitting not far away.
Except for Li Nuo, the others' patrons were not Augusge.
Now it was bad, there wasn't even a chance to look after each other.
Delton waited for everyone to digest the information before starting to talk about the general plan of the sweep.
Half an hour later, Delton announced the end of the meeting and instructed the special agents to contact their young masters as soon as possible and listen to their orders.
From today onwards, the facilities and rooms in the base were open for use, and the special agents could use them according to the established rules.
In addition, the extra rewards for Li Nuo and others for the last mission were distributed.
Li Nuo received 660,000 credit points, and the others ranged from 200,000 to 400,000.
Were 660,000 credit points a lot?
Not much.
Far less than the net profit brought to him by the White Fruit Manor.
“I have so much cash flow, why am I still working as a governor's special agent? What am I after?”
Li Nuo frowned and pondered in the rest room assigned to him, feeling an impulse to fly solo because his wings had hardened.
But reason told him that when he proposed to fly solo, the governor would definitely send someone to clean him up to eliminate future troubles.
His psionic power was too strong.
If he were the governor, he probably wouldn't want such a psionic user to escape his control.
“People under the eaves have to bow their heads.”
Li Nuo sighed secretly, clicked on the data-slate, activated the communication button, and contacted his young master.
After connecting the communication, the returned information was a pre-recorded voice message.
“Within three hours, I want to see a route map from the ruins to the under-hive, the fastest and shortest one. Whoever acts the fastest, I will reward. Whoever acts the slowest, I will punish. It's that simple.”
The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
The voice ended.
This recording was automatically broadcast.
All the special agents assigned to Augusge by Lord Voges could listen to this recording after dialing Augusge's number.
This meant that before the sweep had even officially begun, Li Nuo was already in competition with the other special agents serving Augusge.
Li Nuo rummaged through the data-slate and transferred all the intelligence Laya had collected in the ruins to a separate storage unit.
He had read all this intelligence and had an impression of its contents.
He spent about half an hour organizing the intelligence and used the drawing tools in the room to create a route map.
He sent this route map to Laya at the reservoir and asked her to check and correct it.
After waiting a moment in the room, Laya sent back the revised route map.
The new route map showed contour lines, coordinates, power distribution, danger warnings, resource collection points, and other diagrammatic information.
Li Nuo was full of praise for this.
As expected of someone who had lived in the ruins, the route map was drawn in more detail than someone like himself who was imagining it out of thin air based on the data.
Li Nuo forwarded the route map to Augusge and waited quietly for a response.
Ten minutes passed, and the data-slate emitted a crisp sound.
“Ding.”
This was the sound of money arriving.
Li Nuo raised an eyebrow and opened his bank account.
100,000 credit points.
It was transferred from Augusge's private account.
At the same time, a new voice message was transmitted to Li Nuo's data-slate, also from Augusge.
“Within half an hour, report to the under-hive checkpoint at elevator BTE-UD-3. My captain of the guard will bring someone to meet you, and you will verify the authenticity of the route map together. If it is true, there will be a great reward after the sweep is over.”
Give rewards after the action is over?
Hmm… could it be a pie in the sky?
Moreover, is it a bit too little to give only 100,000 credit points as a pre-payment reward for such an important route map?
Li Nuo left the rest room in thought and went straight to the armory.
He put on the special agent armor at the fastest speed, obtained the permission for a small transport vehicle, and rushed to the elevator.
The under-hive's broadcast was circulating information about the hunt-nobles, and the residents of the Eighth District already knew that a large group of upper-hive noble lords and ladies would be gracing them with their presence in a few hours.
The Eighth District's city hall temporarily gathered a large number of people to clean the ground, arrange ribbons and carpets, and the number of law enforcers patrolling the streets had also increased several times.
Li Nuo's special agent armor looked similar to the fully armed law enforcers at first glance, so it did not attract too much attention on the road.
Arriving at the target location in a hurry, after waiting in place for a short time, a convoy passed through the checkpoint of the large elevator and slowly drove into the Eighth District.
The configuration of this convoy could be described as luxurious, and Li Nuo directly felt the foundation of a first-class noble family.
At the front was a speeder of an unknown name, a light anti-gravity vehicle, painted in dark cyan, mainly focused on mobility and quick response.
If Li Nuo remembered correctly, the production technology of speeders gradually disappeared after the Dark Age of Technology.
It was not until the 40K era, when Delaque rose to power, that the human empire made technological breakthroughs in the mass production of speeders.
Prior to this, the speeders used by the human empire were either legacies of the Dark Age of Technology or small-batch imitations.
The speeder in front of him was obviously an old antique that the nobles had kept at the bottom of their boxes, using dark cyan paint to cover the dense patches and make it look less old.
Behind this speeder, Li Nuo also saw an anti-gravity troop carrier equipped with a machine gun and an anti-gravity armored vehicle with radar.
Without a doubt, these were all antique-level vehicles from the Gamin branch of the Voges family.
Looking back at the small transport vehicle he had driven, Li Nuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Compared to the three ancient anti-gravity vehicles, his own transport vehicle that needed to walk on wheels was the old-fashioned thing, right?
The foundation of a hive city's powerful family was truly unimaginable.
