Chapter 663: Bloodthirst Curse and Combiner
The test flight of the aerospace carrier was a complete success, and the various naval guns, missiles and bombs on the weapon platform were also tested. Qiao Shida personally led the first company to conduct tactical exercises and envisioned the combat modes of the aerospace carrier in different scenarios.
After testing the new weapon, Fu Qinghai then went to the Biochemical Casting Temple. Master Quinto sent a message that there seemed to be some new breakthroughs in the research on the blood thirst problem. After receiving the notice, Fu Qinghai immediately went to the underground area of the temple.
After obtaining the Blood of the Firstborn from the Underworld universe, the Biological Magus started a new round of testing on the Space Marines of the Flesh Tearers who had been imprisoned in the laboratory prison. Compared with the previous two serums, the Blood of the Firstborn has many magical effects, which is more conducive to Master Quinto to uncover the mysterious mystery of the Blood Angels' "Blood Thirst Curse" at the genetic level, and then solve this genetic disease that has accompanied the Ninth Legion for ten thousand years.
Fu Qinghai is looking forward to good news.
……
Phaeton Biochemical Casting Temple.
Fu Qinghai came to the familiar laboratory.
Nasir Amit was seen tied up again.
The former Fifth Captain of the 9th Legion, the current Chapter Master of the Flesh Tearers, the famous "Flesh Tearer" during the Great Crusade, was still fixed to the wall.
Fu Qinghai turned his head and looked at him. Nasir was still the same as before, glaring at Fu Qinghai with hatred.
Fu Qinghai ignored him and turned to look at the busy Master Quinto and asked:
"What's going on now, Master?"
Master Quinto turned from the shadows again:
“There have indeed been some breakthroughs and progress.”
Fu Qinghai looked at Amit and asked:
"Has the blood thirst been quenched?"
“You can say it’s been solved, or you can say it’s not solved.”
Master Quinto gave an unexpected answer.
"What do you mean?"
Fu Qinghai frowned in confusion.
"The biggest problem for the Blood Angels is not that they need to suck blood, but that they will lose their minds when they are thirsty, and they will kill and eat indiscriminately without distinguishing between friend and foe, right?"
Master Quinto asked a question.
"It seems... that's true."
Fu Qinghai thought for a moment and replied.
"The blood thirst still exists, but after I used the blood of the first ancestor, these Blood Angels no longer lose their minds due to the blood thirst. They remain awake, but the side effect is... they have degenerated into people who must drink blood."
Master Quinto gave the conclusion directly.
No more keeping the secret.
"Can I only drink blood or do I have to drink blood?"
Fu Qinghai noticed this keyword.
"They must drink blood, but they can't drink blood alone. They can eat food normally, but they have to drink enough blood every once in a while, otherwise they will become weak. If they don't drink blood for a long time, their organs will fail or even die."
Master Quinto continued calmly.
"That's it?"
Fu Qinghai frowned and asked.
If that's all, then there doesn't seem to be much difference between them and the normal Space Marines in the Blood Angels? Dante and his crew also like to eat blood meals from time to time, so what are the uses of these serums, including the blood of the ancestor?
"Of course, it's more than that. This is the only side effect. As long as they absorb enough blood, they will gain greater strength and agility, comparable to the new alien space marines. Their recovery ability is also enhanced, and they have more powerful dark vision. The Ear of Leman has mutated and can hear ultrasound."
Master Quinto mentioned a lot of benefits.
The more Fu Qinghai listened, the more familiar it sounded.
Aren't these the abilities of Dr. Morbius? But they seem to be different from Morbius. Dr. Morbius can not only hear all kinds of small sounds in half of the city, but also attract and control bats by creating sound waves, and can also control airflow to glide at low altitude... The abilities described by Master Quinto are more like a weakened version of Morbius.
"Yes, I combined several serums."
Master Quinto nodded and admitted:
"Space Marines are more resistant to serums. Mobius serum can transform mortals into vampires, but a larger dose is needed to transform Space Marines. Secondly, I consider that if a Space Marine were to become a mortal recipient of Mobius serum, the Inquisition might not be able to accept it, and the Blood Angels Chapter might not be able to accept it either."
Master Quinto made his point.
"Hmm...you have a point."
Fu Qinghai pondered for a moment.
What Master Quinto said makes sense.
Among all the sci-fi vampires, Dr. Morbius can be regarded as the most powerful one. He has many superpowers, but his side effects are not small. In addition to the common problem of blood sucking, his serum can also make people ugly: gray skin, sunken cheeks, and shorter and upturned noses. For a country that hates mutations and pays attention to the purity of human genes, this will cause great trouble.
The Salamanders had a genetic mutation that caused their skin to turn black and their pupils to become vertical like reptiles, which caused them to encounter a lot of trouble when performing missions within the Empire and forced them to face some suspicious and scrutinizing eyes. Some of the Salamanders' sub-groups also had a mutation trait of growing bone spurs, such as the Black Dragons, and the Inquisition and the High Lords' Council even considered banning these sub-groups.
But even without those super powers.
Now this transformation is enough.
Master Quinto did not eliminate the "Blood Thirst Curse".
But he changed this genetic disease.
In the past, blood thirst would make the Blood Angels go crazy and out of control, but now blood thirst will make them weak and die - this is a big difference! For any Imperial army that wants to fight alongside the Blood Angels and their successors, no one wants to face a group of crazy Space Marines who bite indiscriminately regardless of friend or foe, including the Space Marines themselves. But now, even without blood sucking, the Blood Angels can still remain sane.
for this result.
I believe Bal can accept it.
"Radolon owes me a big favor."
Fu Qinghai looked at Nasir and said to himself:
"I wonder if he will still be the Chapter Master of the Blood Angels after the storm dissipates."
At the time when Fu Qinghai became the Iron Pagoda Chapter Master, the first Chapter Master of the Blood Angels was Radoron. The former First Captain of the Ninth Legion, Radoron, Abaddon and Sigismund were once collectively known as the "Three Great Masters of the Great Crusade". As for who is the current Chapter Master of the Blood Angels, Fu Qinghai does not know. The time in the star zone has long been disconnected from the real universe time, and any era outside is possible.
"Don't let me escape. I will kill you first, Qingshan Khan. Even Radolon can't stop me!"
Nasir Amit said harshly.
"You? You don't stand a chance."
Fu Qinghai sneered and said nonchalantly.
He turned his head and looked at Master Quinto and asked:
"Does Black Fury have any ideas?"
"I don't have any clue."
Master Quinto shook his head and said.
This answer was within Fu Qinghai's expectations.
The "bloodthirst curse" only involves the genetic level.
"Black Rage" involves the soul level.
It's normal for a bio-sage to have no clue.
"Arrange a spaceship. When the storm dissipates, we will tie up all the Flesh Tearers and send them back to Baal, along with the serum we developed. Baal will know what to do, and the rest is not our concern."
Fu Qinghai waved his hand and gave instructions.
Nasir Amit not only burst out with blood thirst but also burst out with black rage. He could no longer continue to serve as the commander of the Flesh Tearers. How to deal with him was the matter of the parent group, the Blood Angels. Fu Qinghai didn't care. But the best outcome for him was to be incorporated into the Death Company as cannon fodder. The Flesh Tearers might even be banned and disbanded.
…………
Phaeton Titan forges the temple.
Fu Qinghai came to the territory of Sage Xiao Fei.
Take a look at the construction of the Titan Legion on the way.
The forging workshop modeled after the "Broken Dome" was still brightly lit, with forging hammers and crucibles swinging and pulling back and forth, robot servants and workers shuttling back and forth in the assembly line, and the distorted heat waves and bright red light emitted by various heating equipment, complementing the white steam mist emitted by the cooling equipment.
"Khan."
Learn that the Chapter Master has arrived at the Forge Temple.
Master Xiao Fei came with a group of his men.
After not seeing him for a while, Sage Xiao Fei lost a lot of flesh and was replaced by various machines. However, he still retained his human face and vocal cords, and could convey subtle emotions that were difficult to convey through binary codes and electromagnetic wave signals through complex expressions and changes in tone and intonation.
For example, now, Xiao Fei's face is flushed - not only because of the shining molten steel around him, but also because the subcutaneous capillaries on his face are becoming congested and dilated.
"How is the Havoc Legion doing?"
Fu Qinghai smiled and asked:
"It looks like good news."
"The Havoc Titan Corps is complete, Khan!"
Xiao Fei led his financial sponsor inside.
The crowd walked along the sky bridge specially used for visiting, all the way to the depths of the Casting Temple. This sky bridge was more than 80 meters above the ground, and on both sides of the bridge were two rows of towering caves, and in each cave stood a giant humanoid machine, like a giant cyber Buddha statue made of cold steel.
The so-called "God's Machine" of the Mechanicus.
One can't help but bow down in worship.
A total of six Titans stand here.
In terms of quantity alone, the Havoc Legion is very small, with only six Titans in total, even smaller than some small Titan Legions. But in terms of quality, all Titans of the Havoc Legion are Khan-class Titans, with sizes between Warmaster-class Titans and Emperor-class Titans, belonging to the category of "large Titans", which are not comparable to small and medium-sized Titans such as Warhound-class Titans and Warlord-class Titans. It is no exaggeration to say that one Titan can defeat ten Titans.
Because they are positioned as "Titan Killers".
Whenever a large mechanical wonder like the Titan appears on the battlefield, its strong combat capability is certainly one thing, but it is also a morale boost for friendly forces - this morale boost is particularly evident for the Mechanicus troops.
"After the Transformation Gears were seized, the construction of the Havoc Legion was suspended for a while. Strictly speaking, it was me who stopped all Titan production and construction because I wanted to try whether the Transformation Gears could be used on my Titans..."
Xiao Fei began to talk non-stop:
"But the conclusion after the test was disappointing. These transformation gears can only be used on small vehicles. Their transformation ability is not enough to support Titan-class units. But there is an exception - the 'Hercules' composed of the nine 'Digging Tigers' brothers. The transformation gears on their bodies have the ability to combine. Nine transformation gears are enough to support a large Titan to complete the transformation!"
Fu Qinghai was moved when he heard this and asked:
"Then you can use these nine transforming gears for..."
"Yes, of course it is the 'Pojun Jinjia'!"
Xiao Fei said proudly with his head raised and his hands on his hips.
Everyone came to the giant cave in the center and stopped to observe. Xiao Fei raised his hand and pointed at the four-armed Titan standing in the cave and said:
"As you can see, Khan, the appearance of 'Pojun Jinjia' has changed a little bit, becoming a little more like a Transformer, but that's not the point. The point is that it now has the ability to transform! Head, chest, abdomen, four arms and two legs, just nine transformation gears are used. It is now a combination of Transformers, more flexible and easier to deploy!"
Fu Qinghai leaned forward and rested his hands on the railing.
He squinted his eyes and looked carefully at his "Pojun Golden Armor".
"The head can be transformed into a Land Raider. The abdomen can be transformed into a Spartan tank. The four arms can be transformed into four Sikaran battle tanks. The two legs can be transformed into two Kratos assault tanks. As for the chest, which is the largest, it can be transformed into a Mastodon super-heavy tank. This is a convoy."
Xiao Fei introduced it in a very eloquent manner.
“How stable is the structure at the joint?”
Fu Qinghai raised a question.
He had dealt with Combiners before, whether it was the semi-finished Shockwaves in the duel arena in Kalon City, or the mature and terrifying siege weapons - Hercules and Panther in the Decepticon army. After their bodies were severely damaged, they would immediately split from the combined state to an independent state.
"Don't worry about that, Khan."
Xiao Fei smiled and said confidently:
"My process is different from Shockwave's. He forcibly transformed the Transformers' multiple brothers into Combiners, while I disassembled the various body modules of the Combiner 'Po Jun Jin Jia' and added transformation gears to each of them to turn it into an armored vehicle. The combined form is the original state of 'Po Jun Jin Jia'."
Fu Qinghai nodded slightly when he heard this.
He understood what Xiao Fei wanted to express.
"Besides, we are using a vibranium skeleton."
Xiao Fei added with a blink.
Indeed, Vibranium is far stronger than the adamantium in the Warhammer 40K universe, and is lighter - unless the enemy knows that Vibranium is fatally blunted by sound waves.
"Phaeton finally has his own Titan Corps."
Fu Qinghai looked back at the entire factory and sighed.
"The Havoc Legion will give the world a huge shock."
Xiao Fei raised the corner of his mouth and agreed meaningfully.
The "Havoc Legion" is actually just a cover.
If someone opened the cockpits of these large Titans, they would find that the pilots inside were not Titan crew members in the traditional sense - but several Space Marines!
Of course, the "Catastrophe Legion" signboard is still needed on the surface, because the issue of Space Marines driving Titans is a bit sensitive, especially for the Mechanicus.
There have been precedents of Space Marines driving Knight Mechs. The Dreadnought Mech itself is not much different from the Knight Mech. Belisarius Cawl also invented the "Victor Tactical Armor", which simply replaced the incomplete Space Marine in the Dreadnought Mech with a complete Space Marine. However, the "God Machine" has always been regarded as a taboo by various Forge Worlds in the past.
So this secret should not be made public for the time being.
So as not to cause dissatisfaction among other forging worlds.
As for the Huangquan No. 8 Forge World, the headquarters of the Alien Affairs Faction, it is a very powerful forge world. The famous "Sleepless One-Eyed" Huangquan No. 8 has stood in the Taiping Star Region for thousands of years. Huangba and Riza are both powerful forge worlds second only to Mars. The Phaeton Forge World cannot be compared with Huangquan No. 8 yet, so these aspects should be kept under a low profile.
We cannot openly break up with Mars at the moment.
"Get ready, A Fei."
Fu Qinghai patted Xiao Fei on the shoulder.
He left after leaving behind some confusing words.

1. Setting conflict: Imperial Armour No. 1 places the forge world of Acheron VIII in the Ultima Segmentum; while the 260th issue of the British White Dwarf Magazine says that Acheron VIII is "dangerously close to the Eye of Terror", which means it may be in the Nebula Segmentum; and the seventh edition of the Skitarii Codex places it between the Solar Segmentum and the Pacific Segmentum.
