I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

Chapter 185 The Arrival of the Strategic Weapon Shark

"It has been preliminarily confirmed that this man can emit a special force field that affects the surrounding subspace energy..."

"After careful detection, this range is roughly the physical space with a radius of 2.25 light years with it as the center. Moreover, this range is still expanding at a steady speed, about kilometers per second, close to the speed of light."

"Within the range of its special force field, the energy of the subspace will be subjected to some kind of powerful [purification] - I don't know if the word purification is appropriate. In short, within this range, the energy of the subspace is significantly suppressed and will not produce strong fluctuations. The shadows created by the insect tide that cover the subspace cannot exist."

After Alatar's explanation, Julius realized that the reason why the regiment was unable to receive support was because it encountered a subspace storm on the way. However, after approaching the Hades system, the subspace storm suddenly disappeared.

Not only that, the entire subspace in this area has become unprecedentedly peaceful, and all the dark and twisted subspace creatures that usually appear in the subspace have disappeared.

To describe it from the navigator [Astropath]'s perspective, the subspace that was once as turbid as a swamp and full of snakes, insects, rats and ants suddenly turned into clear and transparent spring water, and suddenly changed from a chaotic hell into a pure paradise.

Now it has been almost confirmed that all of this is related to the mysterious man who suddenly appeared on the planet Makaria.

"In addition, we humans will be strengthened in some way, especially in terms of spirit. This special power can even affect the machine soul! The mechanic brothers in the regiment told me that the calculation speed of the thinkers in the regiment is more than 50% faster..."

Hearing this, the Space Marines were even more speechless.

It's outrageous that it can even have an impact on the machine soul.

Who is he and why does he have such incredible power?

Could it be that he is the incarnation of the Emperor or the God of All Things?

How else to explain why his power is so "friendly" to humans, and so restraining to demons and aliens?

All of this has become something that everyone in the Ash Claw Chapter is eager to know.

"Can you wake him up?"

The think tank and the pharmacist both shook their heads.

"I'm sorry, I tried everything, but it didn't work," Ragar said.

Think Tank Alatar said: "I can vaguely feel that he seems to be in a state of curse. It may be affected by the power of the warp space... In short, it should be some supernatural factor that caused him to be in a deep dormant state."

The Chapter Master sighed and said regretfully: "Well, it seems that we can't solve these mysteries for the time being. Before that... let's discuss how to deal with this guy."

The Chapter Champion Kyleus said without hesitation: "He is a powerful weapon, no doubt! With him, we will have a huge advantage against Zerg, Demons and even Greenskins!"

Captain Sith nodded and agreed, "Indeed. This can be said to be a strategic-level weapon. With this artifact, no one in the Ghoul Stars will be our opponent... except the Empire."

When it comes to the empire, everyone falls silent.

If the Ash Claw and the Empire were to fight, since we are all human and can gain the blessing of this power...it seems like the Ash Claw would be at a disadvantage!

We must never conflict with the empire, it would be such a loss!

Everyone immediately made up their mind.

It is good enough to be the king in this remote area of ​​​​Ghoul Star, and the Ash Claw has no intention of expanding outward for the time being.

After listening to everyone's opinions, Chapter Master Nerva made the final decision.

"What happened today must be kept strictly confidential. No one can reveal it to anyone except those present here. Even the other brothers in our regiment are not allowed to disclose it!"

Nerva said sternly.

Second Captain Julius said worriedly: "But, Captain. Third Captain Bel Shar of the Carcharodon has already been to Makaria today..."

Julius recounted the story of the Third Shark Captain's attempt to steal the "holy object".

Nerva rubbed his brows in annoyance and said, "Just let me handle this matter. You don't have to worry about it."

"Alatar, Ragar, you stay here, and the others go back first."

The Chapter Master left behind the Chief Librarian and Chief Pharmacist to discuss things in secret.

A few days later, a special holy relic was added to the holy relic storage room of the Ash Claws Chapter. It was a sculpture made of pure gold called the "Holy Terra Model". It was a model of the planet Terra with a diameter of about four meters and a surface as bright as gold.

The mountains and rivers of Terra are clearly visible on it, and the carvings are exquisite. There are also sacred mottos of the Imperial Truth engraved on it - now the people of the Empire have long forgotten about this thing, and it is regarded as heresy by the state religion.

However, the Ash Claws, which inherited from the Great Crusade era, still believe in the truth established by the Emperor himself.

Although, they now believe that the Emperor is dead and that what exists on Terra is nothing more than a corpse, Terra is actually controlled by a group of corrupt mortals.

In fact, many Ash Claw warriors, especially those Terran veterans, still have some kind of honor complex in their hearts. They are nominally neutral, but if the Emperor were to resurrect and summon them to return to the Empire, they would probably respond to the Emperor's call without hesitation.

After all, that was their home planet, the emperor they once regarded as their faith and more important than their lives...

Nerva drove the Phoenix back to Persephone and parked it in the planet's orbit. The Crimson Claws temporarily settled in the Hades system.

The chapter leader plans to return to his home planet after clearing out the Zerg and Orcs here.

The Hades galaxy is a good territory. The Ash Claws have already invested a lot of effort here. It would be a shame not to take it down.

Moreover, the regiment also needs to confirm through actual combat whether the power of that "holy object" is stable and reliable, so as to decide the next strategic direction of the regiment.

Under the power of the "holy object", the Tyranid fleet in the Hades galaxy was completely paralyzed and isolated, and humans only needed to send out ordinary fleets to easily sweep them away.

The greenskins were also significantly affected. Their WAAAGH! powers seemed to have failed, the probability of their various mechanical creations malfunctioning and exploding increased sharply, and fighting became weak and unmotivated.

The only troublesome thing is the Genestealer sect hidden in the Hive World. These aliens have their own independent will and do not rely much on psychic power. The power of the "holy relics" does not have much effect on them.

However, facing the Ash Claws Regiment with nearly three thousand Astartes warriors, these chicken thieves who lacked the ability to engage in head-on confrontation could not cause any waves, and it was only a matter of time before they were completely wiped out.

However, before Nerva could pacify the Hades galaxy, trouble arose.

A fleet painted with a white shark logo suddenly jumped out of the warp and appeared at the gate of the Hades system. It had two battleships and four cruisers, with less than half the strength of the Ash Claws.

But Nerva did not dare to underestimate the visitor at all.

"Hahaha. Nerva, my good brother, we meet again."

"I heard that you recently got a super big baby, so I came here to open my eyes. You won't be unwelcome, right?"

Before the person showed up, a loud voice was heard in the communication channel.

It was clearly a greeting from an acquaintance, but it exuded a chilling ferocity. Just by listening to the voice, one could feel that the person in front of him was a devil who killed people without blinking an eye.

"Tiberius."

Nerva gnashed his teeth and said, "I know what you are planning. I tell you, I will never give that thing to you!"
