Although Rogge is the war commander of this expeditionary force and has great power, he still hopes to gain the support of his brothers.
Immediately, he looked at Julia and ordered: "As soon as Ark 002 completes the construction of large device 0972, immediately put Ark 002 into combat readiness.
Then notify all the fleet departments that they must accompany Ark 002 on its voyage and are prohibited from leaving the defensive barrier of Ark 002. "
"Yes, sir."
"By the way..." Rogge added, "Don't forget to report our actions to the Red Queen. Although she may be "watching" us now, the rules cannot be lost.
At the same time, help me tell Magnus and ask him to provide some help as much as possible... Although Expedition-072 isolates psychic energy, it is worse than nothing. "
"Yes." Julia responded mechanically.
"Very good!" After giving the order, Rogge waved his hand impatiently and said to the two brothers beside him: "Sanguinius, my younger brother Sui Meng, please go back and tidy up the various departments.
It is best to move the main force to the surface of Ark 002 and leave some assault teams on the fleet just in case, just in case, just to use it as a gang-hopping assault. "
"good."
"Um."
Neither Sanguinius nor Sui Meng had any objections to Rogge's order.
After all, the naval battle is handled by Ark, which is on combat readiness. Then the more than 3,500 warships of the expeditionary force can basically withdraw from the naval battle. As Rogge said, they can be used for gang-hopping assaults, or for escort and transportation.
Next.
The two original bodies returned to their respective ministries and began to prepare in accordance with Rogge's orders.
As for taking advantage of the communication gap to ask for help from the primarchs in Universe 03?
No need to think about it.
Once the expeditionary force is formed, it will be independent of each legion and the Imperial Army. In order to respond to the war situation, the war commander has the power to adapt to the situation and "cut first and then tell later".
At the same time, with Rogg's character, it is absolutely impossible for him to ask for help from Leon, who stayed behind in Galaxy 03, and Chagatai, who was "running" at the edge of the galaxy.
Needless to say, Leon, not only Rogge, but also many brothers have some problems with this original body who is the least talkative and has the coldest temperament.
Moreover, as an adult, Leon has always been by his father's side, making Leon always inadvertently show an attitude of "I am my father's most trusted son."
Although they grew up together and their brotherhood is extraordinary, small frictions and conflicts are inevitable.
What's more, Rogge himself has big problems. On the one hand, he is arrogant. The most important thing is that he doesn't know how to adapt and is very upright. This is the case with Magnus, Sanguinius, and Sui Meng who stayed in the solar system together. The brothers can talk to each other.
Chagatai?
Rogge didn't have any serious friendship with the other party. To put it bluntly, it was just an acquaintance and a "blood" brother, that's all.

…
Shortly after.
The large device 0972, which has a diameter of 10,000 kilometers and is "new from the factory," is already hovering more than 10,000 kilometers above Ark 002.
Moreover, the eight "petal" tips of Ark 002 released a beam matrix together, creating a pseudo-wormhole with a diameter of about 100,000 kilometers below.
Then, Ark 002, Large Device 0972, the Never Fall, and more than 3,500 warships gradually sank into the pseudo wormhole.
In the end, there was no trace at all, and even the aura and traces of existence disappeared completely because of the action of the expeditionary force, as if they had disappeared from the Zero Three Universe.
———————
…
Not long before the expeditionary force led by Rogge, Sanguinius, and Sui Meng sailed into the pseudo-wormhole.
Universe 101 (a universe similar to Star Wars).
Galaxy's Edge.
Six light-years away from Codisan, there is a galaxy composed of two blue stars. At the same time, there is also the First Empire's
Military outpost.
Due to the high star temperature, high radiation, and unstable orbit, the habitable zone of this galaxy is located in the sixth to ninth orbits.
The outpost is located in the seventh orbit and is the only terrestrial planet with an atmosphere in the galaxy. However, the surface environment is quite harsh. From a glance, it just looks like a desert planet.
This planet called Dimera has a colonized population of less than 10 billion and even fewer natural resources, but the First Empire still builds an outpost here.
Everything is because Dimera is equivalent to the portal of this universe.
The First Empire was influenced by the goddess, Nv Qianqi, so that the navigation method was conventional when the speed was lower than the speed of light. If it wanted to exceed the speed of light, it would need to go through an alternative jump through "hyperspace".
However, hyperspace jumps are essentially different from the jump navigation used by humans in the main universe.
The fault space that the jump enters is equivalent to allowing the ship to sail into the gap between the three dimensions and the fourth dimension, and then find another way to achieve the purpose of traveling at super-light speed.
But hyperspace jumps...
The most popular and easy-to-understand explanation is that it is navigation in different spaces. After all, it is Nv Qianqi who is responsible for guiding it.
If a First Empire spaceship wants to sail across galaxies, it must first activate a protective stance to ensure that the warship will not be corroded, and then open a jump channel and enter the so-called hyperspace.
If the route goal is to cross the Milky Way "from north to south", then in hyperspace, the journey "from north to south" has also been completed.
Because every object in real space, such as a star or a planet, also has a corresponding projection at the same location in hyperspace.
If there are extragalactic forces that also use hyperspace navigation and choose to break into the Milky Way from this space, then there is a very high probability that they will "pass by" Dimera's galaxy.
Even a second-level civilization like the Covenant Empire can detect fault space, let alone the First Empire, so the purpose of the outpost is to monitor nearby hyperspace fluctuations.
And Demera is facing away from the sun, the equator.
Looking down from an altitude of 1,000 meters, you can see that it covers an area of 60,000 square kilometers, with twinkling lights, like an outpost of a metal city, located in the endless ocean of sand.
Countless Imperial-class Star Destroyers are parked in the docking port of the outpost, undergoing logistical and robot maintenance and repairs.
As for the civilians, they gathered in the northern hemisphere where the environment was acceptable. What's more, the area near the outpost was clear, and only a very small number of nobles and members of aristocratic families were qualified to enter and exit.
At this moment, the outpost is on the southern perimeter.
On a sand dune.
There were a group of dark warriors wearing black robes with their hoods open and their eyes slightly closed, sitting cross-legged on the top of the sand dune.
As for the stormtroopers, who were equivalent to being handymen and followers, and numbered more than a thousand, they stood scattered under the sand dunes, in groups of three and two, with relaxed vigilance (deserting), and there were also many ground vehicles parked under the sand dunes.
"Ugh...I'm so sleepy, ugh."
"Speechless, Meditation is not in the outpost. I have to come here. It's either because I'm sick or..."
"Okay, keep your voice down."
Many stormtroopers are talking and complaining about why they have to wait for a group of very conceited guys to complete the so-called meditation at this time.
It is true that the Dark Templars have a very high status among the people and the military, but the stormtroopers who have been with the Dark Templars are very disgusted and disgusted, because those guys use "them" like dogs.
But "they" dare not, and cannot resist. After all, they are "their" immediate superiors, and the force (psionic energy) mastered by the dark warriors often makes some neck-choking movements in the air, which makes "them" somewhat uncomfortable. Psychological shadow.
Sudden…
"Ah...! My eyes...! Eyes!"
A female warrior stood up abruptly, covered her eyes with her hands, and began to wail uncontrollably.
"Get ready for the enemy!"
"Quick! Quick!"
The rest of the dark warriors ignored the female companion, but drew out their sword hilts as if facing a formidable enemy, looked up at the twinkling stars, and extremely
For the quiet night sky.
? ?
Seeing the dark warrior convulsing made many stormtroopers tremble.
After calming down a bit, they all raised their guns and showed off, because the latest information from the command center was that everything was business as usual, where were the enemies?
Maybe he got sick due to too much contact with hyperspace.
Although "them" this group of non-sensitive people cannot control the Force, at least they will not have a certain chance of going crazy and dying like the Dark Warriors.
The main reason is that the stormtroopers have gone crazy after seeing them more than once or twice. Many new recruits, because they did not understand the situation, came forward to ask despite the dissuasion of the veterans (wanting to show off), and then they were crushed and crushed by the force...
Waiting for various painful ways to die.
Anyway, whatever the boss wants to do, "they" just have to follow suit. Survival is the first priority.
Looking at this group of dark warriors, they are not convulsing as the stormtroopers thought.
When I was meditating just now to feel the force between all things in the universe, the dark lord who was in the capital of the First Empire, who was deceived by Palv Palpatine and was once a warrior who yearned for the light, appeared for the first time. In their consciousness, they were told that an unimaginable and extremely powerful enemy was about to attack.
At the same time, the Dark Lord also repeatedly emphasized that the Force must not be used to perceive or spy on the hyperspace at this moment.
When the other party finished reminding them and exited their consciousness, only the female warrior did not obey the instructions and tried to peek into the hyperspace.
Then, the female warrior saw an extremely cold but golden "sun" that had completely enveloped the space where they were located, and even the entire universe.
In just an instant, the female warrior's eyeballs were evaporated directly because she "looked directly" at the cold "sun".
Immediately afterwards…
Huh~! Huh~!
Waves of faint blue trails flickered in the night sky.
! !
Seeing this, the stormtroopers were definitely attacking the enemy, but why did the real-time information given to "them" in the command center still show that everything was normal until now?
Before he could think too much, a burst of golden light flashed from the top of the dune, forcing the dark warrior to close his eyes slightly or raise his hands to block it. Even the stormtroopers did the same, and the helmet mask had no effect at all.
Only the female warrior was not affected much.
When the light dissipated, after opening his eyes and putting down his hands, he saw with his own eyes the three-meter-tall Sui Bian with the Emperor's Claw in his left hand, and the Bai Queen who stood behind the Emperor with his hands folded in front of his lower abdomen. .
"..."
Sui Bian was condescending and looked at the group of guys in front of him. Finally, his eyes fell on the female warrior who had lost all her eyeballs and knelt on her knees in front of him out of extreme fear.
There was unconcealable disgust in his eyes.
In fact, since he led the White Queen, Artemis and two hundred descendants to Universe 101, he has continued to cover up his projection in the alien space.
But not long ago, Sui Bian was unable to sense Rogge, Sanguinius, Sui Meng, or even the entire elite expeditionary force.
This made him unable to hold back his instant anger, causing the alien space in Universe 101 to "roll" and "boil".
Although this move revealed his position in the physical universe to Nuganqi, it also made many Force-sensitive people in the First Empire, such as the Dark Lord, aware of his "visit".
But Sui Bian was too lazy to "play the world" anymore, and was going to spend some of his energy and physical strength to directly release a cosmic-scale psychic impact to directly wipe out Universe 101, and then go to Universe 03 to find out.
Because they can't sense it, it means that his sons have disappeared, or...
dead.
It is most likely the work of the gang of traffickers hiding in another space. If that is the case, then Sui Bian is too lazy to maintain the so-called balance, or the order of the physical universe, and revenge will become the core policy of the human empire.
As if aware of Sui Bian's anger, Nv Ganqi, who was originally reluctant to leave Universe 101 and prepared to make careful arrangements and calculations, ran away without a trace in an instant.
To be honest, Nuganqi didn't even understand what it had done. It actually caused the human emperor who was normally participating in the "chess game" to suddenly overturn the table in the game with it.
Can't afford it or what?
Nuganqi was puzzled.
"Fortunately", even Sui Bian needed to prepare for a period of time to release a cosmic-level psychic impact, and Queen Bai, who was able to achieve cross-universe contact with her "sister", promptly reported that Expedition-072 was suspected to be the birthplace of the Tyro Zerg. Report to the expeditionary force on matters related to the change of policy.
After learning that it was not the evil gods but his son who took the initiative to go deep into the unknown territory, although his anger has not diminished, at least he will not blow up Universe 101.
Immediately afterwards.
The extra-staff fleet (formerly the 332nd Fleet) happened to have finished its hyperspace voyage and carried Sui Bian and his party to the equator on the backside of Dimera.
Therefore, Sui Bian briefly ordered "Capture this galaxy" to the following Artemis, as well as the one hundred and sixty Gray Knights and Imperial Guards, and then teleported directly to the outskirts of the outpost with Queen White.
"Did you change your belief so easily?" Sui Bian asked indifferently.
The female warrior who was disgusted and watched by Sui Bian, after seeing the cold sun in the hyperspace (different space) and hearing Sui Bian teleported here, she was so frightened that she forcibly eliminated the sun caused by Nu Qianqi. Influence.
"never mind."
This time, Sui Bian did not dance the Emperor's Claw or wave his arms like he did when he first came to Universe 101. He directly released his spiritual energy and transformed all the dark warriors in front of him, including the female warrior, into physical and spiritual beings. of erasure.
As for the thousand stormtroopers under the dunes, they have been assimilated into the "white soldiers" of the Human Empire. They also boarded ground vehicles to launch attacks in the direction of the outpost town.
Sui Bian was angry, but he would not direct his anger at these white soldiers. He just lost interest.
Finally, when there were no more outsiders around the dunes, Sui Bian couldn't help but sigh, looked up at the night sky that had been ignited with war, and said with emotion:
"Every time I said it was up to them, but every time I encountered a crisis, I couldn't help but intervene. This time...that boy Rogge actually rushed in."
