Returning to the 3K Era

Stepping out of the box, Chen Xi shook his head, dispelling the discomfort caused by traversing two worlds.

"Planetary Governor succession ceremony successfully completed. Newbie mission complete."

"Newbie mission rewards: 500 experience points, 200 mission points."

"Current permissions: Level I (500/1000)"

"The Emperor is very pleased with your performance and presents you with a gift: Artificer Power Sword (Duelist Pattern)."

The Servo-skull opportunely announced the rewards of Chen Xi's first transmigration.

After greeting the Adeptus Ministorum priest, he had originally planned to stay and thoroughly enjoy the 'luxurious life' of a Planetary Governor in the 40K era.

However, upon seeing the rather heavy and bizarre dishes served at the table, such as Winterscale Crawlers, Thornmaw Beasts, and Ant-ox, Chen Xi chose to withdraw after only a few tentative bites.

Although there was normal food available, it seemed that to highlight the enthusiastic reception for the new Planetary Governor, various exotic ingredients showcasing 'noble bravery' were the main courses of the banquet.

Breads and pastries made from natural grains were simply not presentable, and fruits, which were particularly precious in the Imperial frontier worlds, were scarce in number. Even as Planetary Governor, he couldn't indulge in them.

Don't find it strange; in the Warhammer world, sometimes a single xenos fruit could buy an entire Hive City palace.

This was a galaxy-spanning territory with extremely poor material circulation and highly unbalanced prices. Something commonplace in the 3K era could buy an entire planet in the 40K era.

This was precisely the method Chen Xi planned to use to make money in the future.

In the 40K era, even ordinary Hive City nobles couldn't get their hands on a bottle of wine made from natural grapes, and the finest vintage wines were priceless. If he developed related industries and turned his planet into a Paradise World that produced wine, would he have to worry about money?

Of course, all of this was contingent on Magos Ovilia actually completing her research and terraforming the planet.

However, even if she couldn't transform Rostov II from a desert world into a Paradise World, Chen Xi wouldn't be too concerned.

After all, the level of barbarity in the Warhammer world was even worse than not eating beef. Being able to improve the environment appropriately, so that the sky wasn't filled with toxic fumes, would be a blessing for Chen Xi.

Moreover, in his opinion, as long as Ovilia, as a Biologis Magos, could manage to plant grapes on Rostov II and ensure their quality, everything else would be a problem.

Warhammer 40K Planetary Governor? No, he was a galactic wine tycoon!

And with the funds brought in by the wine industry, buying weapons and equipment or developing the planet would no longer be a problem.

In the Warhammer world, development was never constrained by population or resources.

With enough money, many planets would be willing to sell off their surplus population, and penal worlds had countless prisoners to exploit.

Even technical problems that severely restricted planetary development could be solved by hiring the Adeptus Mechanicus, provided there was sufficient profit to be made.

"It seems the next priority is to buy some grape seedlings and have Magos Ovilia cultivate them on Rostov II," Chen Xi decided, before turning his attention to the box, where a power sword shaped like a scimitar lay on the golden dust.

"This is Big E's gift? Let me take a good look!" Chen Xi said, reaching out to take the power sword from the box.

Somewhat to Chen Xi's surprise, the sword wasn't heavy in his hand. On the contrary, even when held with one hand, it felt light and flexible. Drawing it from its scabbard and holding it felt as if it had been custom-made for him.

"As expected of an artificer weapon, the craftsmanship is simply amazing!" Chen Xi exclaimed, examining the power sword.

It was a single-handed weapon shaped like a scimitar, with a slender, slightly curved blade that was ideal for slashing. It not only had exquisite carvings and patterns but was also inscribed with the Imperial Creed in High Gothic.

The hilt was made of metal, wrapped in gold, and inlaid with gemstones, making it look not only luxurious but also exquisitely crafted.

At the junction of the blade and the hilt was a golden square structure, on which a Purity Seal was affixed.

Chen Xi, who was quite familiar with power weapons, knew that this was the Power Field Generator.

As long as this device was activated, a layer of blue disruptive field would be distributed on the blade, which could tear matter apart at the atomic level, making it as smooth as a hot knife through butter when cutting through anything.

Even at the end of the hilt, a small Imperial Icon was connected by a ring.

It had to be said that, based solely on its exquisite craftsmanship and appearance, it was simply a work of art.

"Let's take a photo and post it in the group. These guys have definitely never seen such exquisite 'Warhammer merchandise'!" Chen Xi said, taking out his phone, taking several photos of the power sword, and then uploading them to his Warhammer group.

"[Image][Image][Image] Artificer Power Sword! For the Emperor!"

Although it was just a simple picture and text, it instantly caused a strong reaction from the group members.

"Holy crap! This dog is really rich. This thing must have cost tens of thousands, right?"

"The craftsmanship! The material! It's obviously the work of a Magos Dominus of the Adeptus Mechanicus! Bro, send me their contact information!"

"Your sword has flaws. It's hard to explain in the group. Send it to me, and I'll point them out to you."

"Omnissiah! Where did you get this? This can't be a real power sword, right? The dog even has a Duelist Pattern! Tell me, did you secretly become a High Lord of Terra?"

Looking at the group members' spam, a satisfied smile appeared on Chen Xi's face. Wasn't this what he was aiming for when he risked exposure to post the photos?

Looking at the enthusiastic comments in the group, Chen Xi suddenly remembered that the Servo-skull had said that he could recruit others to go to the Warhammer world with him, which made him consider whether to bring in his group members.

After all, they were all Warhammer fans, and if they had the opportunity to go to the Warhammer world, they would definitely not miss this precious opportunity.

The only questions were whether these people were reliable and whether he could tell them this secret.

Chen Xi trusted his group members relatively well. Although they weren't the kind of people he knew inside and out in reality, the credibility of these silly group members was still very high.

Especially since the group members were all Warhammer fans, Chen Xi felt that it shouldn't be a big problem to take them to the Warhammer world for Big E's sake.

"This isn't urgent. I'm still doing the newbie mission myself. It's a bit too hasty to bring in group members now." Chen Xi put the power sword on his model shelf, already having made a decision in his heart: "I need to take care of my own safety first. At the very least, I need to get myself a Psychic Talent or Astartes enhancement first."
