Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

Chapter 392 The Road to Expedition: Set Sail

Captain Reina skilfully reviewed the holographic interface in front of her. Her eyes kept jumping from the chaotic parameters and information nodes. She quickly searched for useful information in it and soon found the part she wanted.

"Yeta, how is the repair of the propulsion engine?" Reina said as she pushed open the holographic interface in front of her. She looked down at Yeta standing behind the bird captain. She supported one hand on the top of the terminal and looked at the information on it sideways.

"The Mechanicus said that the repairs have been basically completed. They are doing the final debugging and should be able to start soon." "Tell them to check carefully, don't overload the control cable when it is turned on like before." "Understood, I'll notify them."

Yeta patted the bird captain on the shoulder and pointed to the terminal in front of her to give the captain's orders. The operators on both sides were working efficiently. Reina was very pleased to find that although they had not been on the ship for decades, they seemed to recall everything as if instinctively when they came to the terminal.

They knew what to do almost immediately without any review or training. The bridge was busy in the blink of an eye, and everyone handled all the chaotic problems in their own way. This also allowed them to complete the repair and debugging work so quickly. The entire Emperor Fantasy was about to be ready, and it would roar like its name again.

Reina said as she stretched out her hand and pulled a window from the side. Her fingers slid up and down on it. There was a list on it, recording all the parts that needed repair and adjustment. Those that were not completed would be marked in red, and those that were completed would be marked in green. What satisfied Reina was that most of them were green.

"It seems that everything is going well. The efficiency of the crew is surprising and satisfactory, Captain." Captain Sumani came from behind. He stood beside Reina and looked at the huge window floating in front of them with her. The long list had reached the bottom, which also meant that everything was completed.

"Indeed, the situation is going better than we expected. Captain, how are your soldiers?" Reina said as she retracted the window inwards and then threw it out. The window quickly flew outwards and disappeared at the edge of the holographic projection beam.

"It went smoothly too. The wounded were treated, our power armor was repaired, and the weapons were finally replaced." Sumani patted the chainsaw sword hanging on his waist. The sword had changed from a piece of junk made by the greenskins to a standard manufacturing craft of the Empire.

Although Sumani wanted to find a power sword, it was obvious that the ship could not produce such high-level weapons for the time being, or even if it could be produced, it would take up the already precious production line and resources, so Sumani just took a chainsaw sword.

Reina glanced at Sumani beside her and nodded. She looked around the holographic windows around the bridge, and from there she could see the holographic scenes all around, especially the deserted settlement below, where no one had left. Most of the equipment around the buildings had been dismantled and moved away, leaving only abandoned pipelines and broken parts.

"Yeta, have everyone been on board?" Reina leaned on the handrail and looked down. Yeta nodded below. She took the data board from an officer who was walking over, reviewed it carefully, and then raised her head and shouted upwards.

"Everyone is on board. The Sun Army is doing the final finishing work, and they are taking the mechanical priests to delete or blow up the data modules that cannot be taken away. But it should have been finished. After all, I haven't heard any explosions for several minutes."

As soon as Yeta said this, there was an explosion outside. She was stunned for a moment, took a look outside with the data board, and pointed at the holographic floor-to-ceiling window with the board, "Well, at least this should be the last batch."

Reina nodded with satisfaction. She leaned on the handrail and looked down at the busy bridge below, "Everyone On board, everything is ready, except for the marshal. Captain Sumani said behind him, with his hands folded in front of him and his eyes looking out of the holographic bridge window in front of him, "Do we know where the marshal has gone? We can't just leave him alone, and he's the only one who knows where we should go." Reina glanced at Sumani, then put one hand on the armrest and turned to look at Lilith behind her. She was lying on the throne, nestling in it very casually, with her back leaning on the armrest, and her legs raised high and hanging out from the other side. Lilith threw a cookie high up, and the small cookie was thrown high up, then rolled into her mouth, and Lilith chewed the cookie with satisfaction, with a smile on her face. "Judge Lilith, do you know where the marshal went?" Reina asked, looking at the chewing Lilith. She was very dissatisfied with Lilith eating like this on the bridge. This seriously violated the management regulations of the Imperial Navy. If it were an ordinary sailor, she would have had someone drag her out and whip her a few times, but Lilith obviously couldn't be treated like this. She was Vito's woman, so Reina could only endure it. Captain Sumani also turned around while pressing the hilt of the chainsaw sword. The action was not out of hostility, but a subconscious action. He looked at Lilith sitting on the throne, "If I remember correctly, you were the last person to see the marshal on that Eldar transport ship, and then he disappeared."

"Yes, that's right." Lilith said and picked up another cookie from the bowl on her abdomen. She threw it directly into her mouth, chewing it with her teeth, her expression showing. It seems quite enjoyable.

"So, can you tell us where he went?" Sumani spread his hands and asked speechlessly. He really didn't know why Vito fell in love with such a careless woman. It could even be said that he was arrogant. She had an aura about her that made Sumani quite unhappy, just like all the Eldar he had seen before.

Lilith swayed her legs. She picked up another biscuit and turned it in her hands to look at it. "He said it should be kept secret, so I guess I can't tell you guys."

"Then when will he come back?" Reina asked with a slight frown. She still couldn't stand Lilith's frivolity. To be honest, she was unhappy with this woman staying in the bridge.

"You can guess, there will be prizes. Whoever guesses correctly will give him a cookie." Lilith said and threw the cookie up, and the small square cookie rotated in the air. , and then it suddenly fell towards her open mouth, but this time, she couldn't taste the thing.

Because the biscuit was suddenly caught and held in the air by a hand, Reina and Sumani, who were standing in front of the throne, turned their heads and saw the person standing next to the throne. He was wearing a silver The armored boots took a step forward, and the layered iron plates on them made a clicking sound.

"Eat less of these biscuits. These biscuits are made of butter and are frighteningly high in calories." The man said and tapped Lilith's turned forehead with his fingers. He covered his head and pouted as he looked away. People who have passed.

"Then you still eat?" "I didn't say I wanted to maintain my weight, and I've been burning calories like crazy before." The man said and threw the biscuit into his mouth, chewed it and walked to the two people in front of the throne. , Sumani looked at the muttering man standing in front of him with one hand on his hips and bowed his head.

"Sir Vito." "To be honest, you'd better call me Vito. Each of you talks to me with the phrase "Sir", which always makes me feel uncomfortable and makes me feel like I have to put on a straight face and pretend to be cool. That’s it.”

Vito said in an inarticulate manner. He chewed the biscuits in his mouth and spoke in a garbled voice. Reina on the other side looked at him and raised her eyebrows in displeasure. She cleared her throat in a low voice and coughed to remind him. , the latter smiled and swallowed the biscuit residue in his stomach.

He scratched the corners of his mouth with his fingers to remove all the residue. He was quite comfortable and glanced at Sumani beside him without any marshal look, and looked at the power armor on his body, "It looks like you guys I’ve already changed my clothes and gone back. I hope my big baby has changed his clothes and is ready to take him out to meet people.”

Vito said with a smile, turning his eyes to look at Reina, who put his hands behind his back and nodded slightly, "The maintenance work is all ready, the final debugging is in progress, and it will be launched soon."

"Very good. Have all the passengers boarded the ship?" Vito asked through gritted teeth. Sumani in front of him cleared his throat and raised his head with a displeased look on his face.

"Everyone has boarded the ship, but there are still some unpopular passengers on the ship." "Green passengers." Reina immediately added, and Vito looked at the two and shrugged slightly.

"Where are my little green people doing now? I hope they didn't see how attractive my beautiful girl is and couldn't help but take off her clothes."

"Thanks to the Emperor's blessing. No, not yet, but they did try. Colonel Peter and the Astartes almost killed them if it weren't for your order." Reyna clasped her hands behind her back and frowned. Mei said rather dissatisfied. It was obvious that she was unhappy with the arrival of such a group of uninvited travelers on her ship.

It's like you just decorated your house, and then a group of noisy neighbors you don't know crowded into your home, ate the things in your refrigerator, and played with your precious collectibles. I disconnected the water pipes in your house, and then water sprayed all over the floor and you had to mop the floor.

Vito looked at the two of them with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, they will get off the boat soon." "When?" "After a while, when they help me take care of things, they will get off the boat naturally."

Reina and Sumani looked at each other, obviously neither understood what Vito was saying, but the latter obviously didn't want to explain, he just shrugged, "You will understand soon, it will be a surprise. ”

Vito said and walked between the two hesitant people. They all subconsciously moved to the sides when Vito came. The latter passed in front of them, walked to the edge of the captain's platform and looked down at the handrail. Go, he spotted the red-haired Yeta at a glance. She looked particularly conspicuous below.

"First Officer Yeta, are everything ready?" "Yes, sir, everything is ready. I just received news that the last batch of the Sun Army has also boarded the ship, and the people of the Mechanicus have also completed the final debugging. ”

Yeta raised her head and looked at Vito above. The Bird Commander and other operators beside her also raised their heads. Everyone on the entire bridge looked at Vito who was standing high above. , overlooking the people below.

"Your order? Sir." Yeta asked on behalf of all the silent crew members. Her words were full of expectations, and there was an irrepressible enthusiasm burning in her chest, almost about to erupt. Vito could start from there. Look at the passionate flame in your eyes.

He looked around at everyone in the entire bridge, and everyone had the same passion in their eyes. They had been waiting for this day for too long, not a day, not a week, a month, not a year, but A full sixty years.

"Sir, you should give the order." Reina walked up from the side. She stood beside Vito and whispered softly, her eyes overlooking the bridge area below. Vito on her side nodded, He raised his head and immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the bird divination chief.

"Chief Bird, the reactor power is injected into the propulsion engine and is ready for ignition."

"Sir, my order." Captain Bird immediately turned around. He quickly clicked on the screen in front of him with his modified mechanical fingers. With a ticking sound, he quickly pulled up the fuel injection ruler. The red The display bar quickly surged up.

"Priest Mechanicus, sound the seeds three times to awaken the machine soul and start the program." Vito pointed to the Priest Mechanicus in red robes on the side below. The latter nodded with his neck turning the gear, then turned and looked aside. The three servitors embedded in the wall immediately started a vague and complex whisper.

At first, there was only one servitor whispering, but soon he began to recite it. Their words were chanted in binary sacred mechanical words, and with the hoarse voice, the entire bridge Three loud bells rang out in sequence.

As the third bell ended with the final trill, many screens in the entire bridge lit up. Yeta looked at the lit screen behind her and smiled with joy. She raised her head and looked at the countless screens around her. The terminal glowed, listening to the sound of the Thinker's engine roaring into action.

"Fire Control Officer, recharge the shield, close the outer deck." Vito calmly turned his head and looked to the other side. The Fire Control Officer sitting in front of the screen on the side of the bridge immediately nodded and pointed his finger in front of him. A series of short but dazzling operations were performed on the complex instrument.

"The shields begin to recharge and the outer armor begins to close."

Before the fire control officer finished speaking, there was a heavy armor collision outside, which gave him enough support for his words. Vito looked at a flashing blue shield outside the window, and the shield shimmered and covered the sky. out the window.

"Old Barbossa, helmsman, let us fly." "Yes, sir."

The helmsman standing on the disc step below Vito said and immediately pulled down the handle next to the control panel. He quickly clicked on the holographic interface in front of him. With a thunderous sound, the old helmsman suddenly He lifted up a handle next to his feet, and the moment the small handle was raised, it released a powerful force.

There was a violent vibration under the feet of Reina and Sumani, and the entire bridge seemed to have been shaken. However, Vito stood calmly, looking at the scene outside the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the mountains and the white clouds in the sky. The bottom slides down quickly.

The huge Emperor's Dream battleship ignited the huge propellers in its belly. The entire row of thrusters from the bow to the end of the ship ignited instantly. Huge plasma flames sprayed down the ground. After the huge vibration, the heavy battleship slowly levitated from the ground. It rose up, tearing off entire chunks of ground as it lifted from the surface.

Under the shattered surface, there was a row of plasma flames that violently sprayed downwards. They roared and lifted the ship into the air. The bright flames illuminated the settlement buildings on the side of the battleship. Along with the roar of the giant ship, The shaking, torn up strata also began to shake and disintegrate.

The broken earth smashed into the surrounding ground, and the uninhabited buildings in the settlement were instantly crushed under it. In the flying dust, the Emperor's Dream completely broke away from the earth, and along with the huge flames, it slowly rose towards Sky.

The towering mountains on one side suffered a landslide under the impact of the propeller at close range. A large amount of gravel rolled down and flew along the mountain to a new huge rift valley below, in the shadow that shrouded the valley. , countless rubbles smashed in, some of which hit the battleship's shield, and then slid down after being shattered.

Vito looked out the window at the top of the mountain that slid down out of sight. There was nothing outside, which meant that the battleship had left the highest altitude point on the planet. The old helmsman quickly pulled the remaining handles on both sides. The jet port on the belly of the battleship then adjusted its direction, and under the huge propeller flames, the bow of the battleship gradually lifted up and pointed towards the sky.

Vito looked at the bright sky outside the window and smiled. He raised his head slightly and leaned on the armrest, "Let's rush to the stars."

"With pleasure, sir." Old Barbossa said, with a smile, he suddenly pushed down the longitudinal tilt push rod at hand, and the handle quickly hit the top, followed by the release of unparalleled power.

The huge main thruster at the end of the Emperor's Dream ignited instantly, and the surrounding auxiliary thrusters also sprayed out dazzling tongues of flames. The hundreds of meters long flames instantly shot from the end of the battleship to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, no one below was covered. The settlement was swallowed up instantly, and the fire swept across the earth, causing a sea of ​​​​fire in the surrounding forest.

Against the backdrop of the burning flames on the ground, the dragon-like Emperor's Dream rushed into the sky after letting out a roar that resounded through the sky. Vito stood behind the captain's armrest, looking at the clouds rolling past quickly outside. , when the battleship rushed into the atmosphere, raging fire burned outside the window.

Bright flames instantly passed through the holographic window and shone into the bridge. Yetta grabbed the chair of the captain in front of her and looked up at the blazing fire that illuminated everything around her. With a smile on her face, she looked at the atmospheric clouds flying quickly around her. Vito, who was above her, also looked at the burning fire layer.

The blazing fire disappeared suddenly in the next moment, and a sky full of starlight appeared outside the blazing fire. Old Barbosa took advantage of the situation and pulled up the handle at his hand. The auxiliary jet at the end of the battleship turned again instantly. Under the push of the heavy transformation base, the vector jet instantly sprayed backwards, and under the powerful driving force, the battleship returned to a horizontal posture.

Yeta raised her head, she looked at the starry sky outside the window above her head, and her face showed the happiest smile for the first time in her life. Vito looked at her and smiled. Reina beside him came up, holding the handrail and looking at Vito, "Where are we going now?" Vito laughed for a while, he turned around and walked towards the silver throne behind him. Lilith, who was sitting on it, jumped up very consciously, turned around and sat on the handrail. She looked at Vito who came over and turned around to sit on the throne. He sat on his throne with his legs folded in front of him. "Go home."
