Chapter 188 My name is Corax, good brother, come and save me.
Decades ago, when Hogg had just returned to the Legion, he had this idea: why not look for the Primarch in advance?
You have to know that Hogg is a time traveler. He has the basic information of all the Primarchs in his mind, and he knows exactly the planet where the Primarchs crashed.
Therefore, Black Watch sent out many reconnaissance teams at that time. Among them, Lyon, headed by the 9th Company, discovered Hogg's eldest son Perturabo in Olympia.
This gave Hogg great confidence. He believed that he could find all the Primarchs in a short period of time and change their weird personalities and shitty native environment.
Then use your unique education to completely eliminate the tragic fate of this group of misfits and achieve a truly good ending.
But Hogg thought too simply. In the past, he could easily learn about those strange planets from books or settings from a high-dimensional perspective.
But when he became the Primarch, he discovered the most difficult problem: the galaxy was too big.
Take the territory of the Empire as an example. The Great Crusade is still underway, and countless worlds are discovered by the Imperial Army every day. Finding the planet in Hogg's memory is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
In the Alicia sector alone, there are more than 300 inhabited planets, not counting the large number of dead worlds. The entire sector is a cube in the Milky Way, rooted at the junction of several star fields, spanning several light years.
The number of star regions in the empire has reached a terrifying number.
If the 16 Space Marines of Blackwatch were to be dispersed, they might not even be able to fill up their own star zones. If they were to be dispersed throughout the galaxy, it would be the same as if they had no space marines.
Besides, Hogg only knew the names and approximate locations of those planets. Human cultures have been different for thousands of years, and each place has its own name.
If a book of local dialects were published, the author who compiled the book might not be able to complete it until his death, let alone find a person like the Primarch in this vast sea of stars.
Therefore, the task of finding the Primarch has always been thrown to Lyon, and Hogg did not have high expectations for this job.
He just gave him a large budget and asked this spy chief, whose mind was full of drama, to pay attention and see if he could get lucky and run into him.
But with the installation of the Nila terminal, Leon, who was addicted to online quarrels, found an opponent who was as powerful as him.
In the shack of Laerius, Corax, who was already three years old, was more than two meters tall, which made the skinny Evelinia only able to look up at her younger brother.
She still remembered that when she found Corax three years ago, he was still just a tiny baby. At that time, she could hold him in one hand, but now she could no longer hold him.
The baby with fair skin has now grown into a tall young man. Everyone believes that this magical child can lead them to resist oppression.
The fact is that Corax did not disappoint the miners who treated him well. He became a perfect worker and leader, bringing hope to everyone.
Everyone who sees him will be attracted by his charm and then conquered by his fascinating leadership qualities, but in the eyes of Evelinia, Corax will always be the little brother who yells at her that he is hungry.
After placing the rat meat on the counter, Evelinia lay happily on the bed, relieving the day's fatigue. As usual, her versatile brother would prepare the ingredients, and she only had to wait to eat.
But today, Evelinia discovered that food had less appeal to her brother. In the past, he was very happy to see him eating meat.
This made Avreniya get up from the bed and move closer to Clarks to see what he was doing.
Corax was seen typing at a dazzling speed, and this terminal made of scrap materials was wailing because of the user's crazy typing, accusing its owner of the behavior, but it was completely useless.
"Brother, what are you doing?" "I'm dueling!"
In fact, as soon as Evelinia walked into the house, Corax discovered his sister and smelled the bloody smell of the fat rat meat.
This made him subconsciously secrete saliva in his mouth, but he had more important things to do, so he suppressed his desire to eat meat.
Three days ago, the terminal made by Corax received a strange signal, and he discovered that the network architecture named Kara was a complete treasure trove.
By consuming only a little cheap energy, you can learn a variety of knowledge here through any terminal, and even communicate with people far away.
As a result, Corax quickly became addicted to it, and learned to browse the web, send Zaun greetings, and all other common skills of Internet users without any guidance.
He also saw the Blackwatch recruitment advertisement, listened to Hogg's silly advertising slogan, and realized that he might also be a Primarch.
The person who was arguing with him this time was an internet friend named "Vehicle Killer" whom he met while searching for genomes. The two hit it off immediately and started their daily Zaun greetings.
Thanks to the Primarch's strong physical fitness, even if the terminal hardware was not good enough, Corax was able to make up for the gap with his hand speed and successfully defended his parents.
Looking at his sister who was full of curiosity, Corax said proudly:
"Nothing, just a defeated general!"
In a very good mood, Corax stood up, picked up the rat meat on the counter and started cooking. He was confident that he could make delicious food with simple ingredients.
As if treating her adolescent children, Avrenia did not interfere in Corax's affairs, but instead praised him for winning a duel.
If the other Primarchs saw this scene, except for Perturabo and Guilliman, the rest would be jealous and shout "I want a sister like this, too."
After tasting the food which was not rich but very delicious, Evelina, who had been tired all day, lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep, muttering something.
This made Corax, who was called an adopted son but was actually a younger brother and eventually a father, relax his steps, cover his sister with a blanket, and start thinking.
"Although this 'vehicle killer' is very foul-mouthed, it is clear that he is a member of Blackwatch. From his words, we can be sure that Blackwatch is a powerful force and is the backbone of the Empire.
The father he always talked about should be Hogg, who was also a Primarch, and I happened to be a Primarch as well.
So can I seek help from Hogg through him?"
Corax, whose path was now wider, seemed to see the scene of himself, the Dragon King, returning to his position and clearing away the overseers, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
"Done!"
I can't stand it anymore. I'm too tired.
