Travel to Warhammer 40K with Gray Wind

Chapter 153 The Saint’s Western Expedition

After a long warp voyage, the expedition fleet, which lost dozens of Swordfish frigates and several Swordfish research vessels, returned to Falla.

Many high-level technical priests came back with them. In the previous battles with the Death Stalkers, the Mechanicus' foundry ships were either destroyed by the powerful shipboard firepower of the Eumenides, or were destroyed by The Space Marines' boarding torpedoes hit the ship, and the Deathstalkers seized control of several Adeptus Mechanicus and research vessels through gang-hopping warfare.

For the Tech-Priests, this was actually a good thing in a sense. On the way back to Falla, they were able to fully experience a warp voyage across the galaxy.

After learning that the "curvature bubble" that caused the ship to enter a physical super-light state was driven by a biological wetware engine called a brainworm, the biological sage "Igrenu" who had a high status in the forging world of Musbell Caught in great happiness.

Igrenu's main academic field is neurobiology, so he is particularly interested in the principle of how the brainworm wetware uses its powerful nervous system to distort space and create a curvature bubble that is enough to allow space battleships to conduct interstellar navigation.

After the scientific research director died and Alphonse disappeared, the nominal organizer of this expedition fleet became Listia. Igrenu completely ignored the atmosphere of sadness and loss that lingered among the Truth monks after the death of his colleagues. He still hung around Listia as the most fanatical believer, using all possible excuses in the hope of getting the wetware of the brainworm. Research permission.

As for those Eldar banshees who took off their armor in the medical bay, revealing their graceful figures with scars?

God of all opportunities, isn't that a kind of sub-human that has been strengthened through special surgery? Guaranteed by the academic reputation of Musbell's chief biological sage, that is human beings. Why is a two-meter-tall human with pointed ears not a human?

The biological sage Igranu was still stalking the already distracted Listia, rubbing her back. The technical priests in the cabin who couldn't take a moment to relax were annoying her even more.

This group of guys who had been mechanically transformed to the point where they could barely look like humans were obviously high-ranking priests in the forging world of Musbell. When they entered the Sailfish research ship, they all looked like the first time they went to the supermarket. Like a naughty child, he was looking around here and there, and was full of interest in the various sophisticated facilities in the ship and even the predictive interfaces.

The air seemed to be filled with the burnt smell of the wires on their bodies being short-circuited due to excessive excitement. Listia was a little suspicious. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't beat them, these oil guys would probably want to dismantle the entire ship. Take Musbel back for a good lick... and study it.

"Miss Listia, what are your thoughts?"

Listia had just found an empty rest cabin and planned to settle down for a while when that familiar voice - Igrenu came up to her again.

As a biological sage who specializes in the field of neurobiology, Igrenu's mechanical modifications are not many. At least Listia can still tell her gender through the curve of her pelvis and the breasts that have not been removed.

Having also undergone biological modification, Igrenu's body shape will be closer to that of a preacher who has been transformed by an integrated prosthetic body, rather than a mechanical sage without a human form. This makes the truth monks have some subconscious understanding of her. Less barriers.

But that's about it. The monks who believe in materialism will never have any unnecessary affection for the cyber god sticks of the Adeptus Mechanicus who worship the Machine God.

In the empty resting cabin, Igrenu sat down next to Listia without noticing anything. The distance between the two was so close that he could hear the insignificant and almost completely silent sound of the singularity reactor in his chest.

"Miss Listia, I can sign a confidentiality agreement and swear in the name of the God of All Machines never to leak any secrets I learn here; Musbel has always been hostile to Embra, but I I can also stand on the side of the Star Destroyer and use my channels to lobby the top management within Musbel; I can also..."

"As long as what I have and what I can do, everything I have can be put on the table as a weight, as long as... I can even abandon my belief in the God of All Machines and join the Order of Truth! As long as, as long as I can make I obtained a complete brainworm wetware biological engine for research..."

The more Igranu spoke, the more excited she became. The servo skull behind her tried to report some information to her several times but was forcibly interrupted. The biological sage's breathing was as rapid as a dry fire about to be ignited. Listia felt that she At any moment, someone might lose control and pounce on him and pin him to the bed.

"You just said that you swore to keep secrets in the name of the God of All Machines, and then you turned around and said that you can abandon your faith in the God of All Machines and join us at any time. Isn't this... not good?"

Listia couldn't laugh or cry: "And whether the brainworm wetware can be opened to outsiders for research is not something I have the authority to decide. The biological engine was personally given by the leader, and even we don't fully understand its working principle. This will be an important topic in the future..."

"Want... the one who bombed the stars! Miss Listia, doesn't this further prove that you need me to assist you in your research? I'm not bragging. In the field of biological research, looking at the entire Far Eastern frontier, there is no one who can surpass me. By!"

Igrenu completely ignored Listia's statement that she had no relevant authority, and began to boast about her academic achievements in an extremely exaggerated tone, hoping to prove that she could be of great help to the future research of the Order of Truth.

"Even if you say so, I still don't have the authority... I've always been disliked by people in the monastery." Listia felt particularly tired:

"And it's useless no matter how much you tell me? It's meaningless. If you really want to study the brainworm wetware, you can directly apply to join the Terra Expedition - Oh, you call that 'Saint West' Zheng'? It's not bad either."

"The Saint's Western Expedition?" Igrenu finally calmed down a little: "Does this have anything to do with the biological engine I want to study?"

So you don’t know, that’s no wonder... Listia thought for a while and said:

"This is the case. In order to send the L-Star Gate construction template to Holy Terra, the Prophetess summoned 13 Astartes battle groups and almost all military forces in the entire Far Eastern Frontier to form a group heading to Terra from 13 directions. 13 expeditionary armies.”

"Our leaders promised to provide each expeditionary force with a battleship equipped with a warp engine, and to help upgrade and modify the flagships of the 13 Chapters free of charge to also be equipped with biological warp engines."

Igrenu and the servo-skull behind her were silent.

"So if you really want to research brainworm wetware, you might as well apply to be stationed in a war group's flagship as the chief technical advisor. There are 13 war groups. If you are really accomplished, you can choose any one... That's not right, we There has been a blood feud with the Death Stalker Chapter, so the leader probably won’t provide warships for this Chapter?" Listia said in an uncertain tone.

In that case, only 12 of the 13 expeditionary forces would be supported by the Queen of Glory and the warp drive.
