Chapter 4: th Legion Blackwatch
As the celebration came to the end, Hogg came to the flagship of the 11th Legion. At the celebration, Hogg announced that the 11th Legion was renamed Blackwatch and the flagship was renamed Blacklight.
The Black Light is a Queen of Glory-class battleship, 21 kilometers in length, equivalent to the size of a county town in the previous life.
The battleship is covered in gray-black paint with strands of white edges outlined in it, embracing the residents on board like a graceful lady sailing in the universe.
The Glorious Queen is equipped with incredible firepower, capable of single-handedly taking out entire fleets or rebellious planets.
Therefore, they naturally became the flagships of various Astartes Legions in the Great Crusade. These warships would help the Astartes Legionaries quickly conquer and incorporate newly discovered worlds into the Empire, which would also contribute to the rule of the Human Empire.
After arriving at the bridge, Hogg felt his body restless, as if a wonderful thought was surrounding him, and he sensed the joy and love of the ship.
The first thing Hogg did after returning to the Legion was to hold a meeting. The captains of various companies were scattered in the main control meeting room, and the acting legion commander Leila Linn reported the current situation of the 11th Legion to the original master.
"Father, the Legion now has a total of 10372 Space Marines. In addition to the Black Light, there are 3 battleships, 6 frigates, and 7 transport ships. The ships are fully equipped with supplies and personnel, and have 6214 sealed gene seeds.
And compared to the seeds of other legions, our gene seeds are free of mutations and contamination, but..."
"But what, Linn? I'm your father. Maybe I'm still young and haven't experienced as many battles as you, but I need to know the inside information of the Legion, right? My Legion can speak freely."
Hearing the original body's kind tone, Lin En was deeply moved and told the truth.
"Father, you don't know that thanks to the strong regenerative ability of the soldiers in your Mighty Legion, we were sent to the most brutal battlefields.
Maybe we are more flexible than other legions, and an inexplicable emotion drives us to clean up the battlefield, and we inevitably pick up some supplies from other legions, and then, and then..."
At this point, Leila Lynn looked up at Hogg's expression. Her father was still as handsome and beautiful as ever.
"Then we collected a lot of alien technology, which led to our reputation being not very good. We were always called garbage men and dwarfs, so the hobbies of the soldiers in the legion might be a little special."
Huh? Hearing this, Hogg suddenly realized something was wrong. Normally, Astartes were all superhuman warriors, at least 2 meters tall, but after going around the circle, there were only a few taller than him.
But I am only 2 meters tall, and Leila Linn in front of me is the tallest person here, only 2 meters.
"What do they know?"
(⊙_⊙)?Father, what did you say?
Hogg, who was lying on the sofa (which he had taken from the Emperor), said seriously:
"They know nothing! What's the point of being so big? Are they going to be targets? This is the interstellar age. Use guns! We can get into the passages or pipes of the warship, but can they?
Bullshit! They have to dig two more truckloads of dirt than we do to dig trenches. They are exhausted.”
"Father is right!!! We are the most standard Astartes." An officer who was shorter than the others and less than 2 meters tall echoed.
Looking at the little potatoes in front of him, Hogg felt very pleased.
"What's wrong with picking up trash? We call it thrift and recycling.
Besides, we are entering the most dangerous battlefield, and we didn't rob, did we? And what other alien technology, let me see it." Hogg said nonchalantly.
"Look, father!"
The warriors who were highly praised took out their own treasures, including swords emitting green light, daggers made of unknown bones, claws with living tissue and flashing purple decomposition force fields, a crystal soul stone, and even a familiar game console.
"(ˉ▽ ̄~) Tsk~~ That's it. Who said it was alien technology? You, that's you, find a bucket of paint and paint them black, and put the Imperial double eagle logo on them. Who dares to say this is not Imperial technology?"
During this day on the Black Light, Hogg finally understood why the 11th Legion had a bad reputation. In the warehouse, Hogg found all kinds of strange things, such as weapons and ammunition with the logos of other legions, tanks, etc., which were all child's play. There were countless different types of technology, including some unknown creations from the dark technology era.
After hearing his descendants say that they took it if they thought it was useful and they were not afraid of the explosion, Hogg quickly called Candice Lazar to see if they could research something.
At the meeting, Hogg determined the development plan for the next two years. The first step was to lay the foundation and turn Alicia into a fortress world.
The second thing is to recruit soldiers. New soldiers are selected here, and with the help of Candice Lazar's relationship, a group of sages are recruited to reverse-engineer these alien technologies.
As the home planet of the Primarch, Alicia enjoys the highest trade policy of the Empire. Hogg intends to develop it as his rear base, and at least achieve self-sufficiency.
With the news of the Primarch's return, a large number of wandering traders flocked to the city, and the local nobles of Alicia swore allegiance to Hogg.
Perhaps it's a problem with Hogg's gene seed. In addition to having powerful physical bodies, there are also many psykers in the Black Watch, and their abilities are also very strange.
Compared to psykers communicating in the Warp, Blackwatch psykers can be more accurately described as freeloaders. According to veterans, the Warp creatures they encountered while sailing in the Warp all despised them, and the probability of ship crew members being distorted was also pitifully small.
During the Great Crusade, in addition to attacking strongholds, the most common order the Black Watch Space Marines received was to escort supplies, which is why the Legion became so rich.
One month later, the Emperor returned to Terra, during which time Hogg absorbed a huge amount of knowledge. At the last moment, the Emperor gave him an item that was priceless in the universe, a piece of Void Dragon fragment.
According to the Emperor's research, the laws of the physical world are conducive to one's own growth.
As the debris was implanted, Hogg's body underwent a drastic change. Silver-white lines appeared around his body and pale green lightning emerged from the void.
Perhaps it was the nature of the high-dimensional remnant that allowed it to absorb alien energy very smoothly. A weak consciousness wanted to influence Hogg, but was devoured by him as soon as they met.
Hogg, who devoured the fragments of the Void Dragon, also mastered the use of dimensional lightning. Although the energy level is very weak compared to that of the Star God, it can be regarded as an extraordinary ability.
This period was an extremely happy time for the Alicia people. As the planet where the Primarch was discovered, the safety of the residents was greatly guaranteed. More than 7000 Astartes directly swept the planet inside and out.
Chaotic gangs were either ┗(∧`)┛ or shot, ignorant nobles were directly confiscated, mutant creatures were directly eliminated, and the wilderness was reclaimed and settled by Black Watch warriors who were transformed into civil engineers and local defense forces.
Thanks to Alicia's relatively excellent environment, although it has experienced a civil war, the land here is very suitable for cultivation, and the broken small nests have been demolished.
The Titans and Knight mechas in Blackwatch's inventory were put to their original purpose, scrap was recycled, metal was smelted, and transport ships sailed into the starport.
After studying for several months, Hogg, with the help of Candice Lazar, wrote a secondary local area network based on the characteristics of the Star God. The simpler and more efficient operation method greatly improved production efficiency.
Some of Hogg's old friends chose to retire and start farming, while others joined the Blackwatch auxiliary army.
During development, Blackwatch changed its paint scheme to a grey-black coating with white edges. Based on the modular design of the Hogger Raider armor, the Legion's power armor was optimized and thicker armor and a firepower platform were added.
"Ms. Emilia, this is the sixth batch of construction materials, please receive it." The communication message from the first company commander Ross Manderson appeared on Emilia's information terminal.
After obtaining the Primarch's consent in the square that day, Emilia joined the Black Watch and became the Primarch's housekeeper.
After years of aristocratic education, Emilia was able to handle these tasks with ease, but what made her happiest was that she could see him every day and be inseparable from him openly.
