Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

…

The hospital ship transporting five hundred wounded soldiers from battlefields around the world slowly sailed out from the star gate of Yax's system.

Valens, who was sleeping on the deck of the hospital ship, was woken up by Burroughs, and then the two hurried to the porthole to look out.

Yax.

This breathtakingly beautiful garden world is just around the corner.

After the dimensional energy surrounding the ship gradually faded, Valens could see the garden world more clearly.

As ordinary soldiers, Valens and Burroughs would probably never have the opportunity to go to the Garden World in their lifetimes, unless one day the Garden World was attacked and they were ordered to protect it.

But when that time comes, the garden world will also be destroyed and not so beautiful.

Now that Yax has been designated as a hospital world by the original body, Valens and Burroughs have the opportunity to go to the garden world.

Just seeing the appearance of Yax was enough to make Valens and Burroughs feel healed in their hearts, and next they would go to the surface of Yax, which made them tremble with excitement.

"Yax! Yax!"

“My mother’s lifelong dream was to go to Aix, even if it was just for an hour.”

"But she obviously didn't have as much luck as I did, so I had to save money so that one day I could place her urn in the cemetery in Yax."

Bruce said excitedly.

Valens suddenly remembered that Burroughs was always reluctant to spend money, and the reason might be because of what he said.

Being buried in Yax is also an unattainable dream for civilians.

"Since you want to save money, why did you get out from under the Plague Soldier's arm to kill him and almost be crushed to death by him? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to save money if you die?" Valens asked.

Burroughs still looked at Yax excitedly, his eyes shining: "If I die, my pension will be enough for my mother to be buried in Yax Cemetery."

This sentence suddenly made the atmosphere heavy.

Valens lowered his head and remained silent.

"You have to die behind me." Burroughs smiled and looked at Valens, "I also want you to tell the leader on my behalf to use my pension and savings on Yax. Bury my mother."

"Don't say such heavy words, man." Valens rolled his eyes at Burroughs.

Burroughs didn't think it was anything heavy. He had always been open-minded.

In Burroughs's words: "Those of us born in the 41st millennium can only count one day as long as we live."

The two good brothers were lying in front of the porthole, staring at the beautiful Yax.

The two people did not know that Yax, who was so beautiful in their eyes, was a thorn in the side of an evil god in the subspace.

This beautiful hospital world simply exists to give a middle finger to the dark gods.

Hospital ships approached Yax one after another and docked at the star port established by Tyrone's engineering force.

Then comes the lengthy inspection process.

Doctors from Yax will enter the hospital ship, use drones to disinfect every place on the hospital ship, and then check one by one whether the people on the hospital ship are infected with the disease, what disease they are infected with, and how to treat them.

The transport will then pick up the soldiers on the hospital ship to the ground. Before and after the people in the transport plane come out, the doctors will disinfect the apron twice and conduct a second inspection.

In the billowing white smoke, Valens slowly walked out of the transport plane door. Fortunately, he was not infected with any virus, but he still had to stay on Yax for re-examination until it was confirmed that he was in good health regardless of his mental or physical state. After reaching the top, we will return to the front line.

This set of procedures seems cumbersome, but according to the calculations of Tyrone scholars who cooperated with Five Hundred Worlds, the existence of Yax actually increased the war efficiency on the front line by about 10%. Paying attention to the psychological and physiological problems of soldiers always can get good results.

"Valens!"

Burroughs caught up with Valens, followed by five other men.

"Not only did we survive from the Plague Marines here, but so did they." Burroughs introduced the other five people. "They all also encountered the Plague Marines, but they all survived. We are all legends!"

"Oh." Valens didn't care much and turned around and left.

…

Guilliman had nothing to do with Qin Mo's prophecy about the fall of Yax, because even if the seven chosen people in the prophecy were physically erased, Nurgle's lackeys would only have to pick seven more people.

Guilliman and Qin Mo also hoped that nothing would happen to Yax until Tyron's reinforcements were assembled, but if things didn't go their way, they couldn't wait to die.

Tyrone's engineering ships and engineering troops, as part of the advance team, have arrived at Yax together with the soulless doctors.

The most dangerous patients are treated by the soulless doctors. In the face of the subspace plague that can drive doctors from five hundred worlds crazy, the soulless doctors seem to be favored by gods. Their existence is a threat to the subspace. Containment of the Plague.

Engineering ships floated in the orbit of Yax, splashing "pen and ink" to draw giant fortresses on the beautiful mountains.

The engineering troops are building huge underground projects under the city of Yax.

All projects were built with one goal in mind, that is, if the demon army of Nurgle appears directly on Yax, the defenders and wounded of Yax must persist under the protection of the fortress and underground city until reinforcements arrive.

The star gates in the galaxy coordinate the coming and going of ships and supplies. The person responsible for managing the star gates is the star gate manager who was appointed by Guilliman in anger and will be trained by the original body himself.

Since the Star Gate is still controlled remotely by people from the Tyrone Star Sector, the manager has to stay in the Star Gate staff's office and dormitory in the building at the bottom of the Star Gate, and stand aside to learn the entire process of controlling the Star Gate.

Five Hundred Worlds has already sent out students. The manager's task is to manage the Star Gate students who will return after completing their studies. However, this does not mean that he does not need to understand the things he manages. He has to learn far more than the students.

"Have you learned the step of stargate directional towing of the ship that I just demonstrated? Lord Tigurus?"

"I...I haven't learned it yet, but I have taken notes. I will study hard."

"Keke, you are very serious, Lord Tigurius."

"You...you don't need to call me sir."

Fifteen-year-old Tigurus studied alone in the huge Stargate office. The person in charge of being his liaison was a woman with a nice voice.

This woman is the star gate manager in the Tyrone sector. Perhaps because she has nothing to do, she always likes to make fun of Tigurus. Calling Tigurus "sir" is just a tease.

"Alas." The woman suddenly sighed, "You people in the Five Hundred Worlds are all too serious, and so are your students. They are all quite boring."

Tigus was silent for a few seconds and said: "I'm sorry..."

"You don't have to be sorry. Anyway, I think you're quite interesting, haha."

"Please don't look for fun with me. I just hope to finish the management course quickly and then work for the Lord of Five Hundred Worlds."

"I have a quick learning method, do you want to know it?"

"Yes, please tell me."

"Please, or I won't teach you."

Tigurus fell silent helplessly, and after a moment he could only ask: "Please! Please tell me!"

The woman on the other side of the communicator smiled happily: "Since you begged me, I will tell you mercifully that the way to learn quickly is to use your brain more and study hard."

"..." Tigus was speechless for a while.

The Five Hundred Worlds are currently at war, and Tigurus is really in no mood to make any jokes.

But in fact, not only the Tyrone people on the communicator side, but also the five hundred world people on the Yax side are not as serious as Tigurus.

Yax is the rear area, where the war has not yet reached.

In this garden world and hospital world, there is only peace and tranquility at this time.

The soldiers relaxing in the hospital garden felt like they were in another world because Yax was so peaceful.
