The giant corporations that started in Night City

"The galactic expedition has not yet ended. After clearing Prospero, we will invite them to join the Great Crusade and allocate a war zone to the Corporation."

"All the territory they conquer will belong to them, and the spoils will be divided 50-50 with the Empire. The Empire can supply them with energy and logistics."

The Emperor has already thought of how to deal with it.

Since the Universal Corporation wants to enter the Empire, then they will join the Great Crusade with him to expand the galactic pie. The two brothers will join forces to conquer the world.

The Corporation wants to get the Empire's technological relics for free, and the Empire also wants to get the Corporation's fleet for free!

The galactic forces in the "Warhammer" universe are numerous and complex. It is difficult to quickly integrate the entire galaxy by relying solely on the Empire's costly Great Crusade.

If the Universal Corporation helps, the Emperor can save a lot of trouble and retreat behind the scenes to readjust the Empire's power structure.

"Yes."

After receiving the order, Malcador immediately relayed the Emperor's words to Paul, and Paul immediately transmitted the information back to the headquarters of the Wanjie Base.

After learning about the Emperor's attitude and thoughts, Leon nodded repeatedly and had to admit that the Emperor was indeed an outstanding politician.

He had a long-term vision and extraordinary courage.

Leon thought that the Emperor would be afraid of his "abrupt" request and refuse his conditions for sending a fleet.

But unexpectedly, the Emperor not only agreed to the transaction conditions of the giant enterprise, but also was willing to actively invite him to join the Great Expedition Project and conquer the world together.

Such a generous and magnanimous spirit made many executives of the giant enterprise a little unsure of what to say.

They are used to intrigue with the enemy, and this is the first time they have seen such an "opponent" who acts in an upright and aboveboard way.

"The Emperor's political level is very high."

The senior executives of the Universal Giant Enterprise discussed for a long time and finally came to a dry result.

The Universal Corporation originally wanted to gain a foothold in the Warhammer universe, slowly plan to unify the universe, and find a way to conquer the Emperor.

Unexpectedly, the Emperor retreated to advance and welcomed the fleet of the Universal Corporation. The only price was that they needed to cooperate with the Empire to go on an expedition and share the pressure from the warp.

This operation was impeccable.

Leon pondered for a moment. Judging from the current situation of the Warhammer universe, under the Emperor's checks and balances, the Empire is stable and the four gods of the warp are relatively well-behaved.

Now that interstellar navigation technology has been transferred to the Empire, according to the current situation, the Empire is unlikely to collapse again.

Therefore, the focus of the Empire's development in the future will definitely be to continue to expand its territory and annex the entire galaxy.

However, after these two hundred years of the Great Crusade, the Gene Primarch Legion under the Emperor has basically unified the lost human worlds.

Millions of human planets have entered the Empire's territory, and the remaining ones are the hardest to chew!

Eldar, orcs, Tyranids, Necrons and other civilized species will be the next target of the human empire.

The Emperor attracted the giant enterprise to enter the scene in order to use this force to sweep the universe.

"Let Jack Wells lead his troops to advance." Leon ordered.

Since the Emperor has shown his frank attitude, Leon will not do anything mean. The human camp will join forces to conquer the world, penetrate the subspace, and burn the galaxy!

...

003 "Edge of Tomorrow" universe.

The fleet of the Ninth Expeditionary Corps of the Universe, led by Jack Wells and assisted by General Thrawn, is slowly entering the deep star gate and reaching the "Warhammer" universe.

They will be stationed in this new universe for a long time until the giant enterprise completes the integration operation, and then they will have the opportunity to transfer and change positions.

The number of warships of this expeditionary force has reached an astonishing 270,000, and most of the main battleships are five-kilometer-long Infinity-class aircraft carriers.

There is no doubt that this is an unprecedentedly large expeditionary fleet. Even if all the warships of all the legions of the human empire are added together, they cannot catch up with a fraction of the giant enterprise warships.

Due to the serious gap in the development of science and technology in the empire and the backwardness of industrialization, the productivity of the empire is very poor.

For example, on the assembly line of the dockyard, workers have to burn incense and pray even when screwing screws, praying that they will not be contaminated by the demons of the subspace.

Various abstract and complex problems are twisted together, which has caused the empire's military production to be slow to keep up with consumption.

Even when Horus launched the Great Rebellion, the total number of warships in his hands was less than 5,000.

For example, there are only more than 2,000 cruisers with a length of 10 kilometers, and only 200 to 300 battleships with a length of more than 15 kilometers.

The remaining frigates and destroyers are not worth mentioning.

In the future after the end of the Great Rebellion, the declining human empire also had an outrageous battle with less than 300 warships against tens of thousands of Zerg warships.

All signs indicate that even at the current stage of the human empire, all its warships combined, at most, are less than 20,000.

In addition to the inability of industrial productivity to keep up, the internal optimization of the empire's warships is also quite poor.

The emergence of artificial intelligence can simplify the cumbersome command transmission to the greatest extent, which can save a lot of manpower and space resources.

But the human empire is prohibited from using AI.

Therefore, the empire's warships are particularly bloated and huge, and even an ordinary cruiser can reach more than 10 kilometers.

If it is a warship of a giant enterprise, a 10-kilometer-level warship can be used as an aircraft carrier.

There is no way. The Empire has no AI to help it. It can only rely on pure manpower to control various parts of the warships.

And this requires a large number of high-quality human elites.

Unfortunately, in most of the territories of the Empire, the majority of people are uneducated vagrants, and only a very small number of people can go to school.

In addition, the Empire has been fighting for years. Except for Guilliman, these uneducated Primarchs only know how to attack cities and do not care about post-war reconstruction.

There are many planets where humans cannot even guarantee the most basic food and clothing. The backward transportation system also makes the Emperor's decrees have a very small radiation range.

In short, due to various reasons, the superficial brilliance of the Human Empire is actually supported by the legions of the Primarchs.

The real face of the Empire is the shortage of resources, turmoil, chaos, and hunger at the bottom.

This time, the Universal Corporation dispatched nearly 300,000 warships, mainly intending to stay in the Warhammer universe for a long time to help local humans develop technology and improve productivity.

At the same time, it is convenient to launch various battles externally and speed up the integration progress.

Watching Jack Wells lead his troops into the star gate, Leon nodded slightly. He was not worried that this fleet would encounter any accidents in the Warhammer universe.

This expeditionary corps is not a troop that only knows how to fight. Their warships are equipped with countless production line tools, scientific research teams, and various means of production.

As long as they can find a place to rest, they can develop their own power in minutes.

Now that Jack has successfully entered the star gate, the Universal Corporation has initially established a foothold in the Warhammer universe.

…

Prospero Galaxy, edge orbital zone!

Trazyn propped up his cold metal skeleton body, lying on the observation instrument he polished by himself, watching a large number of human warships docked in this galaxy.

It was very surprised. In its impression, humans did not have so many warships.

‘Did the Emperor dig out the warships of the Golden Age from some corner? How could there be so many warships that have never been seen before? ’

Tarasim didn’t take the human fleet that appeared here seriously. After all, this was the territory of the Empire, and it was normal for human warships to appear here.

But the rumor of Magnus’ disappearance made it want to take advantage of the situation and steal some gene seeds of the Thousand Sons Legion as its own collection.

Soon, as time went by, Trazyn noticed something wrong.

This fleet... doesn’t seem to belong to the Human Empire!

Trazyn could clearly observe that all these warships came out of a mysterious star gate. This was definitely not the warp navigation technology, nor did it look like the webway technology of the Eldar.

Trazyn was completely confused by this unknown navigation technology.

More importantly, the number and scale of these warships were too huge!

With its understanding of the Empire’s military strength, even if the Emperor really dug up the treasures in his own ancestral tomb, he would never be able to dig out so many warships.

No mistakes, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one!

Trazyn, the Necromancer of the Nishhak Dynasty, the ruler of the tomb world Solomnas, loves to rob tombs and collect all kinds of strange artifacts.

People give him the nickname - the King of Figures.

The Solomnas Museum founded by him collects rare treasures from various civilizations, some of which are priceless, some are extremely rare, and some are worthless purely to satisfy his hobbies.

Including but not limited to the Otansa Skeleton Choir, the head of the Saint Bishop Sebastian Thor of the Human Empire, the World Soul of Karnak, the fragments of the Star God, the cloned Primarch, etc.

It is well known that collectors are more or less good at it.

As the overlord of the Necromancers, Trazyn's unique skill is to use substitutes and take over the bodies of other Necromancer nobles to achieve various goals, and the enemy is also elusive to him.

It is equivalent to a man with his own substitute messenger.

Although Trazyn has a hobby of collecting various things, it is not cruel and vicious. On the contrary, its values ​​are closer to those of humans.

As a high-value individual who controls a lot of cutting-edge technology and rare creations, Leon must have some intentions towards it.

But it just happened that the elusive Trazyn appeared in the Prospero galaxy and ran into the Megacorp fleet entering the Warhammer universe.

"It's really interesting. It seems that the Emperor has really found some good treasures. This great expedition has been fruitful!"

Trazyn stared at the Megacorp battleship for a long time, but couldn't remember what model and style of battleship it was.

In its memory, the Empire's battleships were not as simple and clean as the battleships in front of it.

The cathedral, redundant religious buildings, and messy corridors were blended in abruptly.

At first glance, it looked like a flying temple.

But the battleships of the Universal Megacorp are completely different.

Although there are battleships of different styles, such as the biological battleships of the Protoss and the Zerg, the appearance style of most battleships is similar.

Extremely simple lines, clean appearance, and neatly arranged naval guns.

"It would be great if we could move these warships into a museum." Trazyn began to think.

It would be extremely difficult to get different warships from under the nose of the Empire.

Now that the Warp and the Empire are undercurrents, Trazyn doesn't want to take risks at this time, lest he be targeted by others.

‘Something is wrong! How come these warships keep popping up? There are more than 50,000 of them!’

At this moment, Trazyn suddenly saw that the warships pouring out of the stargate showed no signs of slowing down, and there seemed to be a large number of warships that had not come out yet.

Even if the Emperor really made a fortune by digging graves, it was impossible to dig out 50,000 warships.

Even if so many warships were really dug out, there would not be enough manpower to start these war weapons.

Moreover, as far as Trazyn knew, the Emperor was secretly working on a major project. Under Malcador's adjustment, the Empire not only ended the two-hundred-year Great Crusade.

It also reduced the resource expenditure of each planet, and even the logistical supply of each Primarch was cut by more than half.

In order to encourage the Primarchs to solve the material and energy problems on their own, the Emperor also left a bunch of broken colonies to his sons.

Under such difficult circumstances, it was unrealistic to maintain such a large interstellar fleet.

Even if the Emperor took out his own coffin book, it would not be enough to burn!

At this moment, the sky above Prospero's orbit was filled with warships as dense as stars.

The Thousand Sons and humans below were very nervous.

As soon as he observed the battleship arrays, Luther, the governor of Prospero, immediately contacted Azek Ahriman, the second-in-command of the Thousand Sons.

In fact, there was no need for Luther to remind him, as Azek had already noticed the warship jump in the planet's orbit.

As the chief think tank of the Thousand Sons, he communicated with the Universal Corporation.

Jack Wells showed the other party his imperial identity card and stated that he came to Prospero to carry out a secret mission.

As for the specific details, there is nothing to say.

In an instant, the soldiers of the Thousand Sons were panicked.

They were not fools, and of course they knew the reason why the Emperor sent troops, which must have something to do with the Primarch Magnus.

"Did the Emperor send someone to help us find the Primarch?"

"It's unlikely! Aren't there too many warships? And I haven't seen them at all. Which legion are they from?"

"Something's wrong... We have to be prepared for battle!"

"..."

According to the Emperor's original plan, the fleet of the Universal Corporation should immediately block Prospero after arriving at the destination to prevent the Thousand Sons from escaping.

And take a series of actions to thoroughly investigate the mutations within the Thousand Sons.

But investigating the warriors of the Thousand Sons requires other Primarchs to handle it on their own. As an outsider, it is not easy for the Corporation to directly intervene in this matter.

At this moment, the fleets of the Primarchs such as Guilliman and Mortarion are still on the way. Now the fleet of the Universal Corporation can only hover in orbit, reorganizing the formation while dispatching fleets to block the entire star system.
