Invitation to Join

Chen Xi took out a letter opener with the Imperial Aquila on it from the Deployment Box he'd brought and placed it on the table. He didn't say anything, just gestured for the three of them to take a look.

The shop owner was the first to pick it up.

The knife was exquisitely small, the handle just right for an adult to hold, and it was sheathed in a scabbard with the Adeptus Mechanicus cogwheel symbol on it.

Once drawn, the blade was only slightly longer than a hand, and the blade, only a finger's width, had a dot on it that looked like a Power Field Generator. It looked very slender.

The hilt was decorated with an Imperial Aquila, very much in the style of the Imperium of Man from the Warhammer world.

"This... could it be the real deal?" The shop owner tested the blade and, feeling that it wasn't very sharp, looked at Chen Xi with some suspicion.

"There's a button on the handle, why don't you try it?" Chen Xi looked at the shop owner, seemingly implying something.

However, faced with Chen Xi's encouragement, the shop owner hesitated.

He put down the letter opener, picked up his wine glass, and, with a slight tremor, poured the whole glass of red wine into his mouth.

Chen Xi and the shop owner's charade made Mai Mai and Twilight guess something. Twilight picked up the letter opener and pressed the intricately designed button on the handle, as Chen Xi had said.

A blue electric light spread across the blade, as if plating the entire knife with a light blue film.

This was the standard manifestation of a Power Weapon.

Twilight's face showed an expression of disbelief, and then she swung the knife at the wine glass next to her.

As if it hadn't cut through anything at all, the wine glass was easily split in two, without the slightest feeling of resistance.

"This is the real deal?" Twilight had a shocked expression on her face, and then suddenly looked up at Chen Xi: "Damn, I knew you went to work for Big E, why didn't you bring your brothers along!"

"Do you really want to go? That's the Warhammer world, a place where transmigrators go to cry like a sissy who's had his toes stepped on." Chen Xi was unhurried, and didn't show any special reaction to Twilight's question.

However, although he didn't say anything, he said everything.

Faced with Chen Xi's deliberately mysterious attitude, the three didn't condemn him for anything. After all, transmigration wasn't something that everyone was willing to share with friends, even if it was to the Warhammer world, that famous cesspool.

Moreover, faced with Chen Xi's almost explicit invitation, the three of them showed hesitation. After all, putting aside transmigrating to the Warhammer world, transmigration itself was something to be taken seriously.

They hadn't struck it lucky, weren't orphans who'd had their parents sacrificed at the start, and didn't have the suicidal tendencies of wanting to understand the true meaning of life and truly live. There was really no need to abandon their families and businesses to transmigrate.

However, at this time, Mai Mai noticed something and asked Chen Xi, "If it's transmigration, does this come with a return ticket? Is it not a one-way trip?"

"If it was a one-way trip, I wouldn't be here, would I?" Chen Xi smiled.

"Then you're telling us, aren't you afraid we'll tell someone?" Twilight asked again.

To this, Chen Xi just made a gesture of spreading his hands: "Do you think you can dodge the assassination of a Vindicare Assassin, or the beheading of a Space Marine?"

Chen Xi couldn't possibly deploy such powerful units in the 3K era, but the exchange options Big E gave him had corresponding enhancements. Chen Xi could enhance himself into an assassin from the Assassinorum, or a Space Marine.

So, in a sense, what he said wasn't a complete lie.

After all, he didn't say whether it was the Emperor who sent people to hunt them down, or if he would do it himself.

The three of them understood Chen Xi's meaning, and they didn't continue to press the issue.

In the end, the letter opener was passed around among the three of them before being put back on the table, and the three of them looked at Chen Xi with burning eyes.

"So, let's get straight to the point, what exactly is going on? Is the Emperor recruiting?" The shop owner simply cut to the chase and asked Chen Xi the question they were concerned about.

"Something like that, I do have slots that can transmigrate to the Warhammer world in my hands." Chen Xi slightly blurred the issue of transmigration. Although he was willing to share the opportunity to transmigrate, he didn't want the people he invited to get out of control.

"What kind of slots?" The guess was confirmed, and Mai Mai also showed excitement.

But he still tried his best to restrain his emotions, so as not to do anything because he was too excited.

"Simply put, it's the High Lords of Terra, but you can choose the pieces you use yourself, that is, the identity of the corresponding character." Chen Xi briefly introduced the mechanism of transmigration, and explained: "Of course, there is also a Cursed High Lord mode to choose from, but this mode can only invest pieces, similar to tabletop battles.

In addition, only the consciousness transmigrates, and the body will still remain in the 3K era. There's no need to worry about being caught by Slaanesh to be made into an RBQ after a body transmigration, or being fed soup by Nurgle."

"What if the Bird God makes trouble?" Twilight interjected.

"Tzeentch making trouble is unavoidable, after all, it's the Warhammer world. Expecting the Chaos Gods not to cause you trouble is simply a pipe dream, but you can rest assured that the Emperor guarantees that our spirit and consciousness will not be affected by the dirty things of that world. As long as you don't fall yourself, everything will be fine, and it won't be brought to this world." Chen Xi assured everyone, and this can be said to be the most crucial point of transmigrating to the Warhammer world.

As long as there is a guarantee on this point, everyone will not be so resistant to transmigrating to the Warhammer world.

"One last question, how do we get there?" The shop owner asked again.

"The Emperor gave me a box, and we can transmigrate through that box, and the exchange is also done through that box." Chen Xi introduced the more specific situation to the three of them.

He wasn't worried about the three of them leaking the secret, because no matter which angle you looked at it from, they didn't seem like people who would refuse.

Here, Chen Xi also played a not-so-small trick of rhetoric, which was to make the three of them think that the box was controlled by Chen Xi.

Although the box was indeed controlled by Chen Xi, this kind of rhetoric could still allow him to occupy a dominant position.

"Then what are we waiting for? Where's the box? I can't wait!" Mai Mai finally couldn't hold back and started rubbing his hands like a fly.

"Transmigration isn't urgent, let me first introduce you to what the situation is over there!" Chen Xi felt it was necessary to give the three of them a brief introduction to let them know what the situation was like in 40K.

And, Chen Xi hoped that the roles they chose could fit the current situation on Rostov II and his subsequent development plans.
