I cultivate mushrooms in warhammer
#131 - The best time to plant a seed is now
Why did the veteran agent faint in battle?
Why did the assassins, skilled in transformation and physical attacks, all die?
What happened after the door to the Deputy Governor's laboratory was opened?
Did the assassins have a change of heart and commit suicide, or did the unconscious agent kill the enemy in his sleep?
Welcome to the large-scale documentary "The Disappearing Surveillance Video"…
Ahem, back to the topic.
Twenty assassins were decapitated, and their deaths and the agent's coma left behind an incomprehensible and curious mystery.
However, when Li Nuo said that he had carried out controllable intelligent modification of his Hunt Lord equipment because he was worried about illegal intrusion into the laboratory, everything became reasonable again.
A Deputy Governor famous for his inventions and creations strengthens the laboratory's security for the purpose of self-protection. This is very reasonable, right?
Thus, this historical chapter written by greedy nobles and sneaky assassins was turned over this night.
After a night of sweeping by the veteran regiment of the Planetary Defense Force, many people from various families were sent to reunite with Osgs.
Those who were fortunate enough to survive had no time to mourn the dead, because what awaited them the next morning was a massive industrial explosion brought about by the new synthetic starch.
The ghost mushroom industry led by the old nobles was overthrown, and manors, factories, pipelines, and various production facilities were all unconditionally transferred to the Deputy Governor's Umbrella Group.
All existing ghost potions and ghost mushrooms are sold to other hive worlds.
Under the Deputy Governor's order, Epimeteus will no longer be involved in the ghost mushroom industry from now on.
Within three months after the First Dawn Festival, an industrial network centered on synthetic starch was officially rolled out.
The process of preparing the new synthetic starch produces a large number of by-products, which have not yet been utilized.
Now, it's time for them to shine.
10 kilograms of residue, under the action of a catalyst, turned into 2 kilograms of synthetic starch, 1 kilogram of concentrated poison, and 7 kilograms of carbon dioxide, nitric oxide, and water.
Of the 7 kilograms of by-products, water will be consumed in the process of making starch paste, leaving less than 1 kilogram of carbon dioxide, and the rest are all nitric oxide.
The recycling and reuse of nitric oxide has great potential.
Directly discharging it outside the hive will cause serious air pollution.
Before long, the rainwater on Epimeteus will become acid rain, and the local water quality will be beyond salvation.
In order to avoid nitric oxide pollution and waste, the industry of producing nitric acid from nitric oxide has rapidly emerged.
The chemical plants in the lower hive are being extensively改造 and connected to the starch factory established by the Deputy Governor in the lower hive.
Nitric oxide is oxidized at normal temperature to become nitrogen dioxide.
Nitrogen dioxide reacts with water, the main product is nitric acid, and the by-product is nitric oxide, which continues to undergo oxidation reaction.
Under such a cycle, the nitric oxide produced by the starch factory every day is turned into nitric acid.
Nitric acid has a wide range of uses, both before and after time-travel.
Agricultural worlds need nitric acid to make nitrogen fertilizer.
Fortress worlds need nitric acid to make high explosives.
The industrial system of the hive world is完善 and can process nitric acid into disinfectant preservatives, pigments, dyes, and etching solutions required for metal processing.
The nitric acid produced in the lower hive is pure liquid, which arrives at the middle hive through liquid pipelines, and is processed into various products by the factories in the middle hive.
One-third of these products are used to pay material taxes, one-third flows back into the hive's industrial system to make up for daily consumption, and the remaining one-third is used to exchange water with various Imperial worlds.
When the entire industrial chain is fully opened, the water consumption for preparing new starch and the net water volume of the hive are perfectly balanced.
Before the Horus Heresy broke out, interstellar trade was unimpeded, and Epimeteus had no worries about water shortage for 15 years.
In order to prevent carbon dioxide from accumulating in the hive, Li Nuo deliberately set aside a small portion of the annual profits to continuously improve the ecological environment of the lower and under hives.
As long as more greenery is added to the hive, the carbon dioxide produced by the preparation of new starch is not to be feared.
In order to prevent Nurgle's corruption from appearing in the underhive again, Li Nuo mobilized the Planetary Defense Force and an engineering team from the hive's engineering department to make significant changes to the underhive.
A large number of sensors were布置 in the underhive, most of the rooms were semi-permanently sealed with engineering foam, and only the two floors near the ground were retained.
These two floors will be改造 into purification factories for treating carbon dioxide, heavily polluted sewage, and solid pollutants.
The new regiment of the Planetary Defense Force guards here, and by the way, conducts training after the new recruits join the army.
The reconstruction and改造 work of the Seventh District was launched at the same time. This will become a highly integrated starch manufacturing area. The entire district only produces new synthetic starch and nitric acid.
In order to complete the reconstruction and改造 of the Seventh District as soon as possible, Li Nuo signed another contract with the forge world Deimos, which is responsible for the reconstruction work.
The term of the contract is 30 years.
In these 30 years, 10% of the synthetic starch produced in the Seventh District will be supplied to Deimos free of charge.
How many years of synthetic starch Deimos can get for free depends on how quickly its engineering team can rebuild the Seventh District.
Within a month of the contract's establishment, ships from Deimos frequently docked at the hive's airport.
Fifty walking mechs for lifting operations, two million hardworking servitors, and a large number of Machine Priests entered the Seventh District and worked day and night on reconstruction and改造 work.
The hive's engineering department was not idle either.
The five engineering construction regiments originally controlled by Voges were all handed over to Li Nuo.
Under Li Nuo's arrangement, one engineering construction regiment is responsible for改造 the underhive, and the other four are responsible for改造 the ecological environment of the middle and lower hives.
What they first started to改造 and expand was the Voges Charity Academy, which Voges built 19 years ago when Tido was born to celebrate the birth of his daughter.
The academy has been greatly expanded, and the annual enrollment scale has expanded from less than a thousand people to tens of thousands.
At the same time, the scholarship named after the Wilsy family was officially established.
The upper, middle, and lower hives all have a share.
This scholarship will benefit all those who desire to change their destiny through hard work and struggle, even if they are just the most ordinary civilians in the lower hive.
Mr. Wilsy, in the hive worlds I have visited, people in the lower hive are usually regarded as tools that work fifteen hours a day, or are used to pay the Empire's population tax…"
In the reception room near the laboratory in the Royal Court District, Renny Barack, a journalist from Terra, met the main character of this trip - Li Nuo Wilsy, the successor of the Governor of Epimeteus and Deputy Governor.
After hearing that this Mr. Wilsy, who is about to become the Governor, is willing to share his throne coins with the hive residents of the lower hive, Renny, who was born in the upper hive family of Terra hive, immediately raised her own question:
"May I ask why you set up a scholarship for the lower hive residents? Even the most outstanding of them are difficult to compare with the middle hive residents, right? Is your move to show your mercy, or for some other reason?"
"Miss Renny, you should know that I used to be a lower hive resident."
Li Nuo sat in a single sofa, with a servo skull floating beside him to hold up his data board.
"Yes, I am very clear about this. I visited this hive because of your legendary life experience. Is it certain fragments of your life in the lower hive that prompted you to make the decision to set up a scholarship?"
"You can say that."
Li Nuo nodded his chin and said:
"Most of the lower hive residents are born muddle-headed. They don't know what they want and what they can do. They can only be driven by hunger to engage in work to make a living. A small number of lower hive residents will gradually understand the world they are in in life and work, and know that there are middle and upper hives above their heads. I am the second type of person."
Renny wears a dark red grid dress, and a small round hat and scarf that fully demonstrate the atmosphere of an artist.
She put her data board on her lap, recorded Li Nuo's speech, nodded to him appropriately, and adapted to him to continue speaking.
"I know very well what people like me are most afraid of. I am afraid that I will not see the hope of going up. I will therefore pray for power to the wrong object, such as the Reconciliation Church, which was prevalent in the underhive when I was in school."
Li Nuo raised his index finger and said in a deep voice:
"Follow me to imagine. Lord Voges did not open a charity academy, and I was eager to climb up. At this time, people from the Reconciliation Church approached me. They promised that as long as they help them overthrow the Governor and kill all the way up from the lower hive, I will be able to have a place in the upper hive after this massive campaign is over. Do you think I will accept the Reconciliation Church's蛊惑?"
Renny nodded subconsciously,
"Yes, I think you will accept it. After all, you seem to have no choice but to join the Reconciliation Church. Whether you are stuffed into the Planetary Defense Force or used to pay the population tax, it is a life-and-death situation for you."
Li Nuo smiled and摊了摊 hands:
"You are absolutely right. I know how important 'hope' is to people like me. So I set up a scholarship to help people like me embark on the right path and not be bewitched by the wrong forces."
Renny thought deeply from the perspective of a reporter and found a potentially interesting question:
"Mr.威尔锡, suppose your scholarship program produces a rebel who, through constant effort, climbs up in the hive city and eventually stands before you, firing a bullet of sin at you. Have you ever considered this scenario? If it really happened, what would you think?"
"Of course, I've considered that scenario. As for my feelings."
李诺 shrugged slightly, stood up to tidy his clothes, and joked with a smile:
"My feeling is that there are so many people who want to kill me, one more doesn't make a difference. He'd have to take a number outside the palace district and wait in line. Only after everyone in front of him is dead would it be his turn... Alright, Miss Reporter, your interview time is over. Stay for lunch before you go back. I'll have the kitchen prepare some local delicacies for you, mainly mushroom soup, mushroom-sauce sandwiches, mushroom puree, grilled mushroom slices, and the like. I hope you'll enjoy it."
李诺 opened the door, nodded to 莲妮, and said, "Goodbye, I have something to do, I'll take my leave first."
莲妮's face flashed with lingering interest, wanting to chase after him to continue the interview, but she was stopped by two armed personnel outside the door.
It wasn't until 李诺 walked away that the armed personnel lowered their arms, allowing 莲妮 to leave.
莲妮 sighed softly in her heart, hugged the data pad, left the reception room, and went to the lounge to enjoy lunch and organize the interview materials.
The 16-year-old governor's heir, born from a fallen lower-hive family, the only descendant of the 威尔锡 family, climbed all the way to the position of governor through his own scientific inventions.
Such a legendary figure, if only I could have interviewed him a little longer, there were still many explosive questions I hadn't asked.
莲妮 finished her mushroom-themed lunch and edited the manuscript on the data pad.
She came up with three styles of headlines for the news稿件:
《Young Governor Boasts: People Who Want to Kill Me Have to Wait in Line!》
《The Legendary Governor's Top Secrets to Success That He's Unwilling to Reveal!》
《From Ordinary to Extraordinary: An Inside Look at the Growth Path of Legendary Governor "威尔锡"》
Considering that the news稿件 she wrote had to be reviewed by the vice-governor, 莲妮 wisely chose the third title.
...
...
On the other side, 李诺 stepped into the office located next to the laboratory.
The servo-skull beside him was directly controlled by 布兰蒂.
布兰蒂 controlled the servo-skull through the palace district's internal network, handling trivial matters such as communications and meeting records for 李诺.
The most ⊥newest⊥novel⊥is⊥first⊥published⊥on⊥six⊥9⊥⊥book⊥⊥bar⊥⊥!
"Master, the Governor's Agent's communication request is connecting to your channel," 布兰蒂's voice came from the servo-skull.
李诺 responded, "Connect it."
The servo-skull carried the data pad and floated in front of him, connecting him to the holographic phone.
The holographic screen popped up, and 莱雅 in military uniform appeared in the picture.
After the giant water-ball fungus bioreactor was assembled, 莱雅 had nothing to do.
Seeing that she was quite interested in fighting, 李诺 arranged for her to join the Governor's Agent team.
Although the origin of her bio-armor was unknown, it didn't prevent her from accepting the Governor's Guard's gene modification project.
Earlier today, the Mechanicus priest in charge of rebuilding the ruins district discovered an underground cave somewhere in the ruins district, where traces of rat-skin people appeared.
莱雅 was currently exploring this underground area with agents such as 威克 and 梦娜.
Through 莱雅's perspective, it could be seen that the rat-rats had been transformed into monsters by "fertilizer" containing Nurgle strains.
The Governor's Agents' firepower绞杀ed them all, with flames and disinfectant spray covering the entire area.
When the communication was connected, the disinfection work was nearing its end.
"Sir, the threat has been completely eliminated," 莱雅 opened her right hand to the camera, revealing two small rat teeth in her palm:
"These two teeth were pulled from 大壮 and 小壮. I have confirmed that they do not carry germs or other hidden dangers. I request to keep them."
李诺 glanced at the mountain of corpses and ashes, took a slight breath, and smoothed the slight sadness in his heart:
"Okay, 莱雅. I grant you permission to keep these two souvenirs. After you come back, send one to me."
"Okay, I'll bring it to you when I go back to patrol."
The communication ended, and the servo-skull closed the communication.
With the death of all members of the 乐威 family, only the last set of bio-armor remained in the hive city, which was the set on 莱雅.
The other set of bio-armor belonged to 卡多利·乐威. This guy was押往泰拉 for trial last year and should still be serving his sentence.
李诺 had been too busy recently to study bio-armor, so he would find a chance to study it later.
In comparison, the situation of the Orks made 李诺 feel much more at ease.
The 钢勇 clan reached a population of 100,000 a few days ago.
李诺 controlled the mad doctor 萨克 to preside over an unprecedented celebration.
In a ritual to pray to Gork and Mork, the cheers and psychic field resonated, and the strong psychic fluctuations allowed 萨克 to be promoted to Weirdboy.
While 李诺 harvested a batch of points, he also witnessed the glorious moment of the 钢勇 clan evolving into the 钢勇 tribe.
Now, the 钢勇 tribe occupies a spaceship ruin and is using scrap to build the tribe's first spaceship.
古加's Ork pirate fleet is also building spaceships, and their progress is faster than the 钢勇 tribe.
李诺 controlled 古加 and contracted the work of making more shiny ornaments.
When the Eldar spirit stone inventory in the fleet was exhausted, he stored about 3 tons of warp energy monocrystals in the fungus warehouse.
It is estimated that in at most half a month, the new pirate ship will be launched.
At that time, 大黑牙 will definitely take a large group of Ork pirates to plunder everywhere again.
Hopefully, they will go to trouble the pointy-ears at that time, so that I can harvest more monocrystals.
After 李诺 finished lunch in the office and waited for a while, 莲妮's news稿件 appeared on the data pad.
After confirming that the female reporter did not use improper wording or sentences, 李诺 approved the other party to send it to the editorial department of the Terra Daily.
In the previous interview, when facing the female reporter 莲妮's questions, 李诺's answers were often only half of his true thoughts.
His establishment of the scholarship and signing a 30-year contract with Deimos was more to bury a seed that could save himself and the hive city.
The current time is the third month of 986.M30, and there are about 18 years left before the Horus Heresy officially breaks out in 004.M31.
The seeds he sows today will bear a rich harvest in 18 years.
Deimos's dependence on Epimethius's food supply is very likely to actively protect Epimethius and help the hive city resist the invasion of the rebel legions.
In addition, the talents cultivated by the scholarship will gradually enter the middle and upper reaches of the hive city in these 18 years and become reserve talents that can be called upon at any time.
The Horus Heresy will inevitably cause serious damage to the hive city. The current department heads and personnel operating the hive city's backbone are likely to be killed in battle.
At that time, the reserve talents cultivated by the scholarship will immediately fill the positions to ensure the normal operation of the hive city and quickly rebuild the hive city after the disaster.
If the seeds of hope are not sown at this time, where will there be so many people to rebuild the hive city in the future.
It was seeing this level that 李诺 made the layout to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
After reading today's report in the office, he prepared to go to the private astropath 莎塔娜 to sit for a while.
In the past three months, he often went to 莎塔娜's place for afternoon tea, learned High Gothic, formulated a cipher book for encrypted astropath communication, or listened to her tell about her life experiences.
缇朵 would also go with him if she was free.
Spending time with such an experienced astropath always allowed 李诺 and 缇朵 to learn a lot of useful knowledge and experience.
"Call 缇朵."
"Okay, Master."
"滴." The communication was connected.
缇朵's voice came out first:
"李诺, I'm already here at Ms. 莎塔娜's place. I happen to have something I want to discuss with her. Come over too. This matter is more important."
李诺 walked towards the door and casually asked, "What is the specific matter?"
There was more worry in 缇朵's voice:
"Just now, the Astropathic Choir sent me the astropathic broadcast from the Nidalven sector. At the junction of the Halo Stars and the Sol System, a plague with both infectiousness and secrecy has appeared. The location of the plague is about eight hundred light-years away from us, separated by four sectors. It's not very far, but there are often freighters from there that stop and transfer at our spaceports. I want to ask Ms. 莎塔娜 to inquire and see if there is more intelligence in the astropathic communication network so that we can take precautions early."
李诺 slowed his pace and looked at the date on the data pad.
986.M30.
What should come, will eventually come.
In the early days of the Great Crusade, the Eighth Legion and the Space Wolves Legion, which had not yet welcomed the Primarchs, were ordered to exterminate the fungus xenos Ak'Haireth.
The extermination was not successful, and Ak'Haireth was only temporarily defeated.
In the later stage of the Great Crusade, from 986.M30 until the Ak'Haireth civilization made a comeback, gradually grew stronger, and was finally completely destroyed by the Alpha Legion in 989.M30.
Now is the early stage of the Ak'Haireth civilization's revival.
Only by surviving the fungus xenos civilization can one be qualified to face the fear and chaos brought by the Horus Heresy.
"Okay, 缇朵, I'll be there soon."
