The time came three months later.
Alexander repeated the same tasks and performed different training modes every day. His height gradually reached 1.2 meters without any change.
His physical strength allows him to face the siege of three forbidden troops at the same time without falling behind. It comes from the memory of the 2K era, allowing him to calmly create his own offensive moves.
You must know that the increase in combatants is not as simple as one plus one. With the cooperation of three forbidden troops, even the Zerg tyrants can be easily killed. Not only can they use long-range weapons such as bolt guns, they are also allowed to use some suppressed spiritual weapons. capable equipment.
Malcador did not fall behind at all in cultivating Alexander's knowledge and skills.
At present, the eldest son of the empire has successfully mastered genetic engineering technology and pharmacist skills under the training of many top talents.
At the same time, he finally had his first pair of power armor, of course it was a special model, after all, it did not have such a small size.
Its appearance is identical to the Shinichi armor worn by the Emperor, but it looks less formidable.
Power armor is made of Auramite metal, which has super toughness and heat resistance.
Because its natural color is shining gold, it is very suitable as a symbol of the emperor.
It can also be dyed at the molecular level, but it is an expensive, time-consuming and labor-intensive process that is not done unless necessary.
At the same time, because Auramite metal remains almost inert at the quantum level, this also means that its inhibitory effect on psychic power is much less than other materials.
Through Alexander's observations of the future in his memory, the Emperor wore Auramite power armor during the Siege of Terra to engage in an invisible contest with the power of Chaos in the warp.
Although exposing your hands directly is a precise and effective way to control psychic energy, if you don't wear armor in the material world, even the emperor will be burned by the saturated non-material power.
In fact, Auramite metal has many names, such as Yaojin, Phlogopite, Aurora Gold, Auramite, and Eagle Gold.
Alexander's weaponry is a scaled-down power sword that is one meter long and can emit thunder-colored flames.
There is a power glove with a psychic amplification device on the left hand, and two plasma pistols that can be fired continuously are hung on the waist, as well as a heavy bolt gun (scaled down version).
Alexander can own so much equipment because he felt that his body would not increase significantly in the short term, so he got it from Malcador. After all, he did not need to go to the battlefield now.
"Juster, how long has it been since you visited the hive city?"
"Nearly thirty years, Your Highness the eldest son." Just stood in front of the main hall with swords in both hands.
Alexander read the information projected from the servo skull. Three months had passed, and there was still no response from the Thunder Warriors on Terra.
Malcador was busy with complicated government affairs every day, and did not mention the Thunder Warriors again. The Emperor did not know where he went, and he did not even show his face.
"Get ready. I'm going to the hive city. It happens that the Astartes Guards have also arrived. That's it today."
In Alexander's memory, there are indeed many Thunder Warriors in Terra. They hide among the people, and some go deep into the dark world.
Even the adults living in the upper levels of the hive city will use them in gladiatorial combat to satisfy the violent desires deep in their hearts.
In fact, Alexander did not have to go to the hive in person at all. He could just issue an order directly and have the upper echelons of the hive respectfully deliver it. However, in order to show that the empire attached great importance to the Thunder Warriors, it would be more effective if the eldest son of the empire went there in person.
What's more, time no longer allows Alexander to delay any longer. After solving the Thunder Warriors matter, he still needs to go to Baal as soon as possible to find Sanguinius.
You know, the Lion King Leon El'Jonson is still trapped in Caliban, a planet filled with chaos and corruption.
...
The hive city is a unique urban complex in the Warhammer world.
Some large hive cities can even cover the entire continent of the planet, and their population has reached an exaggerated 100 billion.
The layered structure composed of rock concrete and diamond makes them look like a group of buildings built on the mountains. The overall appearance is gray and black, and the ground floor is cold and damp.
Relying on the industrial areas within the hive cities, these hive planets can trade materials with other agricultural planets to maintain a large population.
It would be okay if the hive planet was in the Peace Star Domain, but if it was affected by the war and the commercial transport fleet could not arrive on time, then the approximate number of people who would starve to death would have to be counted by the second.
Therefore, the hive city has a unique food culture, corpse starch.
"Which big shot arrived in the hive again?"
"Who knows, the adults have already sent their men to notify the industrial zone. It's none of our business."
The upper-level guards and servants of the hive were all driven to their dormitories. Anyone who went out without permission would be shot.
"Are these warriors selected from the hive city?"
"Of course, they are the Emperor's angels."
"But they don't look much different from the fighters in the arena."
Two upper-class servants in maid uniforms raised the curtains and spoke through the glass to the Astartes standing in the corridor. There might be confusion in her eyes, but there was not much respect.
"You want to die, don't dare to say anything."
The head maid, who was lying on the bed with her eyes closed and taking a nap, suddenly sat up, ran over and covered the maid's mouth, dragged her down on the bed and covered her with a quilt.
"If no one knocks on the door within three minutes, it will be fine. If not, haha."
The charming maid in black and white turned back to her bed, closing her eyes and counting the time silently in her heart.
Life in the upper levels of the hive city is not so casual. There are many people who are executed for saying something. If they are out of shape, they will be sent back to the lower levels in minutes to serve as batteries in the industrial area.
Time passed by, and there was nothing unusual except for the vigorous heartbeat outside the door. The Astartes' bolters were already loaded. Their mission was to protect His Royal Highness the eldest son, so there was no distraction to care about such trivial matters.
The adults in the upper echelons of the hive city are worried about something different from the servants. They are worrying about how to make their political achievements look more glorious.
Boom, boom,
There was a dull crashing sound in the carpet-covered corridor. It was the sound of the Astartes kneeling on one knee. Each sound struck hard at the hearts of the adults above.
The five-meter high door of the Parliament Church was pushed open, and the Imperial Guards wearing shining gold armor filed in.
"Your Highness the eldest son."
The leader of the Astropath family, Taligata, knelt down on one knee decisively when he saw Alexander for the first time.
The exquisite double-headed eagle relief, the crown symbolizing power, and the sun ring with a circle of spikes behind it are all symbols of the emperor.
Upon seeing this, the dignitaries in the hive city also knelt down and lowered their arrogant heads.
