Nature Selection, Ahead Four

After resolving Sotha's matter,

Qin Yun then began preparations to return to the Calixis Sector.

Within the Milky Way realm, Xi Ling can utilize the quantum properties of the resonant energy between the two Beacon.

This allows for the observation and monitoring of players within the coverage area of the two Beacon.

This effectively solves the problem of the Milky Way being too vast for him to monitor players.

In the future, we will build more Beacon.

It can cover most of the Milky Way.

This completely resolves the issues related to player task delivery and reward distribution.

At that time, no matter how far apart they are, Qin Yun will be able to use the Beacon to distribute tasks and rewards to players, and also allow players to teleport between Beacon.

The only pity was that Guilliman did not have enough faith in the technology of the Pharos Beacon.

Qin Yun could understand Guilliman's mindset.

After the Horus Heresy

The Primarch was wary of any gifts bestowed upon him by fate.

They fear being used and deceived by the Chaos Gods once again.

The Emperor's original plan was also perfect.

If it weren't for that idiot Magnus and Abaddon, there really wouldn't be any problem.

The two of them perfectly demonstrated that no matter how bad the enemy is...

It's not as bad as the damage caused by a teammate's quick thinking.

The Legio Custodes, the most elite military unit in the Imperium.

With a single psionic phone call from Magnus, they were wiped out in the Webway, rendering all of the Emperor's plans futile.

The Adeptus Custodes was forced to fight demons in the Webway the Silent Sisterhood and the Adeptus Mechanicus army for years.

During the final battle, the fighting was so brutal that there was no blood left in their bodies, and they relied entirely on stimulants to stay alive.

This is also why there weren't many Adeptus Custodes during the Siege of Terra.

With the assistance of the Legio Custodes, the Siege of Terra could have lasted at least a third longer, or even more.

Abaddon goes without saying.

What brilliant person would throw their own Primarch into a fire pit?

Abaddon, that brilliant strategist, could do it.

First, without conducting any investigation, they rashly sent the wounded Warmaster to the Davin Temple.

Despite repeated dissuasion from Loken and Torgaddon of the Mournival.

He was also warned that it was all a conspiracy by Erebus.

Abaddon wouldn't listen and kept sending Horus into the temple.

When Horus's humanity awakened and he fought against the Chaos Four Gods for the sake of humanity and his father, he even condoned his subordinates' use of Ritual Dagger to kill Horus's humanity.

He truly embodied the meaning of filial piety perfectly.

The Emperor's plan was perfect, but the Chaos Gods destroyed it beyond recognition.

Disrespecting the gods comes at a terrible price.

They will wait patiently until humanity reveals a weakness, then strike like a venomous snake, hitting the vital point instantly.

Qin Yun plans to first test the various new technologies in the Calixis Sector to confirm that there are no problems before promoting them.

Before leaving, Qin Yun spent some of his Faith Points to set the Church of the Macragge's Honour as a respawn point for players.

In this way, players will follow Guilliman's lead.

This made Guilliman, who had previously disliked the addition of a church on his flagship, feel much better.

Before Guilliman was stabbed by Fulgrim and fell into a deep sleep, the Macragge's Honour did not have a church.

After all, Imperial Truth was the mainstream at that time.

As the Imperium's exemplary legion, the Thirteenth Legion has always been resolute in carrying out the Emperor's orders.

In order to enable Qin Yun to quell the rebellion on Calixis Prime as soon as possible and promote reforms,

Guilliman issued a power of attorney in the name of the Regent.

He was given the entire Calixis Sector and the Koronus Expanse to manage.

They also transferred a battleship and several cruisers to supplement Qin Yun's fleet, enabling him to better suppress the rebellion.

"How about I appoint you as the Imperium Warmaster? Once we return to Terra, I will issue the official appointment document."

Guilliman offered his advice during the communication.

"Let's give this position to someone who is more suitable for it."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yun immediately declined politely.

These appointments can't be made haphazardly.

When the Lion returns, how resentful its eyes will be!

Let's not even mention the time Horus stole my title of Warmaster.

Now someone Living Saint as Sanguinius is taking my spot.

Is there any justice left? Is there any fairness left?

"Who in the Imperium is more suitable than you now?"

Guilliman looked puzzled.

"Now, I am my father's only biological son. All my other brothers have passed away. You are the only one who can take this position."

"That's hard to say," Qin Yun shook his head.

"Several Primarch are currently missing, and only Ferrus Manus and Sanguinius have confirmed deaths."

"Since the other Primarch did not see the bodies, we cannot assume that they are dead."

"When the Emperor created you, he created you according to the template of the Perpetuals."

"Theoretically, their physiological lifespan is well over 10,000 years. As long as there is no confirmed news of their death, they may be able to return."

"I hope so."

Guilliman looked skeptical, but nodded nonetheless.

Qin Yun is not willing to be the Warmaster right now; let's talk about it again later.

There are Beacon now.

Even if Qin Yun returns to the Calixis Sector, he can still establish contact; there's no need to rush.

Aeldari Farseer Eldrad Ulthran came looking for Qin Yun before he left.

The recent series of actions by this Emperor- Living Saint all demonstrate his influence on the fate of humanity.

Eldrad Ulthran had to take this matter very seriously.

"The Emperor's Living Saint."

Eldrad Ulthran spoke respectfully, without the arrogance that Aeldari showed to humans.

"Farseer," Qin Yun nodded, "Thank you to the Aeldari for their help to humanity. I hope our cooperation can continue."

"In this dark universe, there are not many races that can serve as allies against Chaos."

"That's very true," Eldrad Ulthran agreed wholeheartedly. "The fates of our two races are closely intertwined."

"I heard that you plan to leave and return to the Calixis Sector."

Eldrad Ulthran's tone was somewhat regretful.

"The Chaos Gods have their eyes on Guilliman, and his traitorous brother is plotting how to deal with him."

"Only you can help him and get him back to Terra safely."

Eldrad Ulthran was unaware that Qin Yun could use player teleportation.

Qin Yun didn't intend to tell him either.

This is considered a crucial trump card for Loyalists, and it cannot be easily revealed.

"My return to the Calixis Sector does not mean I can no longer help the Primarch."

"On the contrary, my departure will help him better. If we both stay here, the Chaos Gods will be able to gather their strength to deal with us."

Eldrad Ulthran nodded. "That makes some sense. Humanity's fate is ultimately in your hands, and we shouldn't interfere too much."

"In addition, I also plan to leave. I've been lingering in Macragge for too long."

"Where is the Farseer going?" Qin Yun asked.

"The Aeldari are now in a more tragic situation than humans; the Craftworld Beet-Tan has been destroyed."

"The Avatar of Ynnead and the Phoenix Lord wielding the Twilight Spear were lost in the Webway; these matters need to be addressed."

Qin Yun nodded. "Then I wish the Farseer a safe journey. By the way, could you send a few of your people who are proficient in the ways of psionic energy to the Calixis Sector to guide humanity on how to use psionic energy?"

Eldrad Ulthran smiled; his earlier gesture of goodwill towards the God Chosen had now been rewarded.

This is a legitimate opportunity to place Aeldari members by each other's side.

Whether it's to understand the movements of this Emperor Living Saint or to bring humans and the Aeldari closer together, the first step is to send people to the other side.

"Of course, I will contact the Craftworld Ulthwe and send a few friendly mentors."

"Thank you for your help to humanity," Qin Yun reiterated.

"..."

After the conversation, Qin Yun led a group of players on their journey back to Calixis.

Under his guidance, even amidst raging storms, the fleet sailed steadily through the Immaterium.

Automata is also booming.

With the outbreak of Colin's rebellion, many refugees fled here.

They brought abundant labor, technology, and capital, which accelerated the industrial development of Automata once again.

Dora Workshop expanded several times, building various space factories and docks.

Recently, their first light cruiser, the 'Natural Selection', is about to undergo its maiden voyage test.

Although the Valancius Family has declined, the Planet Automata, which they control, was once a prosperous world with a complete industry for building Void ships.

Among the refugees who fled were many skilled workers and Tech-Priest.

With enough manpower secured, the entire shipbuilding industry chain quickly restarted.

With the technical support of the Adeptus Mechanicus, and the tireless efforts of the players day and night.

In just a few months, the first light cruiser was completed and named 'Natural Selection' by the players.

The Nature Selection is 1,300 meters long and 414 meters high, and is equipped with weapon systems such as Macro-cannon, Lance, and electromagnetic missiles.

It uses conventional plasma engines as propulsion systems in the Realspace, in conjunction with Warp Engine.

This ship is also the result of Dora Workshop's first attempt at modular construction and design.

If successful, such ships will be mass-produced.

MC Mythology was in charge of the maiden voyage test of Nature Selection.

As a top-tier farming player, he participated in a large amount of design and production work for the Nature Selection.

Therefore, the task of testing also fell to him.

MC Mythology stood on the bridge of the Nature Selection, looking out the porthole at the vast Void.

The ship is very rough, with burrs from welding still remaining in many places.

"The orbit is cleared. Nature Selection can ignite and launch in ten minutes."

The voice from the control tower came through the communication.

"Nature Selection received. Ignition and departure in ten minutes."

MC Mythology suppressed his excitement and repeated it.

The control tower was silent; the only sounds on the bridge were the hum of the machinery and the breathing of the crew.

You can tell everyone is very nervous.

After all, it was the first ship built by players with the ability to travel in Warp.

MC Mythology glanced at everyone and said humorously, "MC Legend Lieutenant, how's the war between the Three-Body and Earth going today?"

MC Legend paused for a moment, then laughed.

He stood up and performed the Aquila Salute.

"Commander, the Earth fleet was completely destroyed yesterday, with only the Bronze Age and Quantum surviving."

MC Mythology made an exaggerated expression.

"Those bastards from the Three-Body Problem have gone too far. Order Wade, no, order Blackwatch to raze their homeland and Cheng Xin to the ground."

Seeing the two perform, the other players laughed, and the tense atmosphere dissipated.

"Nature Selection, you may now ignite and set sail," came the voice from the control tower over the radio.

"Understood, Nature Selection will ignite and set sail."

After answering the tower's question, MC Mythology turned to look at the numerous players and the waiting Tech-Priest.

"Nature Selection, ignition, 'Forward Four', let's set sail for the stars."
