"What nonsense!" the emperor retorted angrily, "I am the purest human being! I was born in Asia Minor on Earth. I have a father and a mother, and I have clansmen! 2K or even 3K humans will call me ancestor when they see me!"
After speaking, the emperor looked at Qin Mo: "You are also a primitive human who has not experienced genetic modification in the space age. Tell me, am I a true primitive human?"
Faced with the emperor's question, Qin Mo pondered for a long time.
Finally he spoke slowly.
"I can't say."
Chapter 682 New Thunder Warrior
With the debate over humanity over, the C'tan began working with the Emperor to reform the Thunder Warriors.
The original emperor needed a large number of auxiliary tools when conducting relevant experiments and research. At this time, the Star Gods also needed auxiliary tools such as instruments and equipment, because they had to control the effects of their power on the mortal body with extremely precision. Influence.
C'tan can easily be precise, but whether their accuracy is accurate enough for mortals is a question.
Bendis and the others did not fall into dormancy in the container, nor were they anesthetized. They watched their bodies change in the container.
"What is the level of the transformed Thunder Warrior?" Guilliman asked curiously.
"A level that could kill an Greenskin War Boss in one-on-one combat," the Emperor said.
Although it is not clear what the Star Gods can transform the Thunder Warriors into, the Emperor can roughly guess the route and direction of the transformation.
"It cannot be such a simple analogy." Burner turned back, "The new Thunder Warriors will be advanced combat units."
The war in the eyes of the Star Gods is also a battle between soldiers and generals.
Low-level combat units must be replaced with low-level combat units, and high-level combat units must be replaced with high-level combat units.
"One thing is for sure, they are far superior to the Astartes. Although their combat power is much stronger than the Astartes." The narrator said.
As if to show off to the Emperor, the C'tan were performing special forms of transformation while introducing their improved masterpieces.
"It does not contain any mechanical structure, everything is based on transformed biological energy."
"They just need to absorb sunlight to survive and fight."
"They will be about five meters tall."
"Although we cannot reproduce Mephitlan's biotechnology to create soulless people, and we cannot allow them to suppress subspace energy within a range, we can at least ensure that they themselves are not affected by subspace."
"Their manipulation of matter can reach one billionth of ours, which means they can release lightning out of thin air or penetrate something."
"The genes will carry some technological codes written by the Void Dragon. These technological codes will exist in the form of biomolecules in each of their cells. As long as they have a piece of meat left, this piece of meat can serve as technological information. The role of the library allows them to create powerful weapons like a scientific research expert who has accumulated tens of thousands of years of scientific and technological knowledge."
"The Void Dragon will build powerful weapons and equipment for them, and the mass production of these weapons and equipment will be completed by a god whose power is productivity."
"Even if you are seriously injured, you only need to absorb solar energy to quickly recover from the wound."
"..."
Listening to the Star Gods' introduction, the Emperor realized that the transformation results of this new Thunder Warrior would far exceed his expectations.
"Are you creating the Primarch of Catan?" asked the Emperor.
"No, it's just to create a high-level combat unit." The Void Dragon looked at Bendis and others who were gradually shaping in the container, "The warriors who followed the Eldar gods to fight during the War in Heaven could use one thought of their own to distort With several celestial bodies, I created equally powerful warriors for the transformed Necrontyr."
"These warriors now will not be as powerful as the masterpieces I created during the War in Heaven."
"I'm broken. I can't remember what happened a long time ago. For now, these warriors will make do. Anyway, the intensity of the war in the galaxy is not that high now."
Others were thinking about whether these new warriors were strong enough, while Guilliman, who was present, was thinking about cost.
The products of the New Thunder Warrior Project are certainly powerful, but the cost of such warriors is a big problem.
But think about those big guys in power armor in the Tyrone Army... the cheapest part of the whole plan is actually the cost.
"Can they mass-produce it? Like the Astartes did," Guilliman asked.
"If these warriors who are very powerful to you cannot be manufactured in batches, then there is no need for them to be manufactured, because they are far from being considered sub-god-level combat units at the level of the God's Guard."
The void dragon floated in front of Guilliman.
"But don't say 'like the Astartes'."
"Because what these two things have in common, apart from being able to be mass-produced, is that they are completely different in terms of their status, use, and combat effectiveness in war."
"The new Thunder Warriors are as related to the Astartes as mortals are to the Astartes."
Hearing this, Guilliman nodded.
As the Regent of the Empire, Guilliman is very aware of the noble virtues of those mortal troops, such as sacrifice and dedication, and why these virtues are recorded and passed down to this day.
The fundamental reason is that humans are always fighting enemies that are stronger than themselves. As the main combat force of the empire, the Astra Militarum is always facing enemies that are stronger than themselves. It can win without sacrificing lives or carrying out suicide attacks with a large group of people. No.
The physical quality of those green-skinned boys in the green-skinned troops far exceeds that of an elite veteran of the Astra Militarum who has been tempered for decades.
This is what cannon fodder that grows out of the ground has.
The Tyranids are always fighting a war of attrition. Those low-level bugs who rush forward driven by the Tyrant or other node units only consume ammunition. In terms of combat effectiveness, they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers in the Astra Militarum. Passed.
And the Astartes...
Regardless of the small number of Astartes, even in terms of quality, it is difficult to call them powerful compared to warriors of other races.
As long as the Mechanicus are willing to invest huge amounts of resources, they can transform an ordinary person who has never been on the battlefield into a person far more powerful than an Astartes.
The advantage of the Astartes is that compared to other options for producing advanced combat units, the cost is not so high and it is relatively stable.
Guilliman had a clear understanding very early on.
That is, in every battle between the Human Empire and the aliens in the galaxy, the main force should not be the Astra Militarum.
Legion-sized Astartes should be the main force, and they should charge on the battlefield or defend in the trenches alongside the mortal auxiliaries.
The Legiones Astartes and Mortal Auxiliaries will be thrown into the battlefield before the war becomes intense.
Perhaps in the Emperor's plan, after the success of the Webway Project, he will have enough energy to create warriors far more powerful than the Astartes, and then these more powerful warriors should shoulder the responsibilities that the Astartes are currently facing. Duties in War.
The Astartes were not supposed to be the kind of troops that only appeared when the war reached a life-or-death situation.
Guilliman thought for a long time and made a decision in his mind.
"After the success of the New Thunder Warriors plan, I will proceed to revoke the Holy Code."
"The Astartes must return to Legion proportions, stronger warriors who will do what they are doing in this current war."
Something will happen soon. I will update these today.
Chapter 683 Uninvited Guest
"Whose right does this super soldier belong to?"
When Guilliman expressed his intention to revoke the Codex due to the birth of the new Thunder Warriors, forcing the Astartes to shoulder their original duties of war, the Emperor asked a crucial question.
The Emperor's humanity possessed by Vanessa has many flaws, such as escaping.
But at serious moments, he always says what needs to be said and does what needs to be done.
"That is your own political problem as a human being." Saranoga glanced at Qin Mo and the emperor, "Whether you two think you are human beings or those who are really pure human beings...this is your problem, not ours."
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" the emperor retorted angrily.
Then the Emperor suddenly realized that he and these Star Gods might have different understandings of the same problem.
"I ask whether the new Thunder Warriors belong to us humans or to you C'tans?" the Emperor added.
"I thought you wanted to ask whether the new Thunder Warriors belong to the Tyrone Sector or the Human Empire." Saranoga spread out his hand. In order to make this action, it even created a metal arm out of thin air. "After all, you humans just like to fight among yourself. , matters as big as a slap can reach the point of being litigated in court."
The Emperor was a little angry when he heard Saranoga's judgment of humans, but he still looked for evidence in his brain that he liked internal fighting because he was a human.
Then he realized why he should believe a star god's judgment about humans, just because they lived older?
After Saranoga finished his judgment on humans, he did not clearly say whether the new Thunder Warriors belonged to humans or to the Star Gods.
Until the Void Dragon took a step forward and said to the emperor: "You should ask the magical existence next to you about this question. He holds our essence in his hands."
Hearing this, the emperor looked to his side.
Qin Mo stood there.
He was silent from beginning to end, as if thinking about something.
"The new Thunder Warriors belong to us." Qin Mo also looked at the emperor, "There is no doubt about it."
The Emperor nodded.
The Star Gods felt it didn't matter. They didn't care whether the new Thunder Warriors belonged to the Star Gods or humans, even if it was indeed the product of their hands.
Essentially, the new Thunder Warriors are improvements to the original Thunder Warriors.
"One more question." The Emperor spoke again, "Can these Thunder Warriors reproduce?"
"Of course, reproduction itself is a way to increase the number of soldiers." The Star Gods either answered directly or nodded.
The Emperor mused.
This discussion is over.
Guilliman got the information he wanted. Not only did the Trust History Research Association have some more references, he also learned about the New Thunder Warriors plan, and could prepare with more confidence for the plan to completely cancel the Holy Code.
But the cancellation of the Holy Code will not start before the war of the expedition to the Eye of Terror. Large-scale military changes before the war are taboo.
As for the New Thunder Warriors program itself.
The Star Gods have determined the characteristics of the new Thunder Warriors, but some of them involve tedious matters such as the psychic potential of the human species, the connection with the subspace, the changes in genes after ten thousand years, and the matters related to the subspace. The Star Gods, who knew nothing about space, could only let the Emperor do it.
Fortunately, there are not many of these things.
……
late at night.
When all the work required for the new Thunder Warriors plan was waiting, Qin Mo and his team left to do what they should do.
The gods also left the abodes of the Outer Ones and used the Forge of the C'tan to forage in the Masterless System.
A transport plane using a dimension engine carried an uninvited guest into the interior of the planet where the Outsiders lived. He passed through the secret room made of energy metal with ease, opened the dimension generator in the secret room, and entered the research point of the New Thunder Warrior Project.
The Star Gods forage for food thousands of light years away.
Although the Star God Forge made by Qin Mo has similar functions to the Breath of the Gods of the Necrons and can extract the energy of stars in the past, present and future stages, considering the safety of the reality membrane, the extraction process will not be fast.
