In Warhammer, I am Ultraman Noah

Chapter 95: The tax collection ship arrives at the Second Terra, whichever Terra is given is Terra.

The battle between Decalia and Icarus ended three days after Cabanha was thrown away.

Icarus broke one of the bloodthirsty's arms and one of his own legs.

Fortunately, the demons of Khorne seemed to have felt some kind of call, and the curses faded away like the tide. At least for the next period of time, Ikaros no longer had to come here every day to spawn monsters.

His legs quickly grew back and were as good as before, but the fatigue and age shown on his body, and even the decline that was gradually heading towards death, were already extremely obvious.

This ten-thousand-year-old forbidden soldier does not have much life left to live.

As strong as the original body Lion, his beard and hair turned gray after 10,000 years and he became an old man. It is already a miracle that Icarus can survive to this day.

After the demons faded away, Ryan's work to build the starting point of the Webway was quickly put on the agenda.

At the same time, more than fifty potential psykers were screened from the planet Duria, divided into three classes, and enrolled in Olympus to learn how to use their psychic powers.

Astropath and Navigator instruction provided by the Rogue Trader fleet from Hatak was intended to cultivate Second Terra's own families of Navigators and Astropaths.

As the first mate of the caravan, Khattak expressed his intention to serve for Ryan Weir more than once.

"Order us to surrender immediately! Otherwise you will retreat from any communication until Ikaro is completely destroyed! Now send a signal to the nearest Inquisitor's Pavilion and request an extermination order! It must be a chaos distortion. How come no one does it? What a sinful thing!”

The other party didn't seem to mind announcing the name of Seventh Terra, so he contacted the tax collection ship so openly, obviously without any confidence.

Yeli Zhong said that those signs must be forged, so the establishment of the seventh Terra and the identity of the lowest lord named the monarch would be a long story.

We are sure that the resources are sufficient, so we will use the population to offset them.

What's even more frightening is that perhaps by the time he arrives in this garden world, this world will inexplicably become a back-line position for Chaos invasion, Orc war, and Tyranid roar.

The emperor of the PUA Low Ghat in his consciousness was very serious and thoughtful, and the Seventh Terra, who had newly occupied a planet, did not even have time to celebrate the New Year.

As a result we met the Emperor, the new Low Lord who didn't even have the ability to command the warp, and the waterways he built were quiet and peaceful, and more dangerous than some garden worlds.

We all wore administrative department uniforms that were similar to military uniforms, but without the rank insignia.

Jerran listened to Ryan's report and assessed what he had to do before arriving at Ikaro.

"Write a report and submit it to the Seventh Terra Administrative Council for us to review and approve. Basically, the original administrative agencies of Li Tengfu have not been retained, and we will judge their value."

Those information updates are surprisingly timely.

Terra, the planet with that name, has suffered the fate of destruction without exception, even Holy Terra.

Degat said helplessly: "You heard what he meant and you had no intention of paying taxes, so why are you still calculating the vague amounts?"

Jie Lang, the tax collector who had just been planting Ikaro just now, had encountered some serious setbacks. Now, just relying on the name Seventh Terra, he believed that there must be no terrible demons at work and that the entire planet has not been polluted. It has been lurking in the hinterland of the empire for a long time.

"Emperor, today is the same as in the past. Since the regent stepped down, the empire's policy has not focused on integrating forces rather than provoking conflicts. Your status as a lowly lord has not been refuted by some people, and it has not reached its limit. Warriors, no one thinks that this is a meeting to provoke you? People will probably think that the Seventh Terra is the product of the cooperation between the little regent and the low lord council."

Captain Ryan said disdainfully: "Worry, little man, who dares to disobey the empire."

Gogart smiled apologetically and explained:

There is an imperial army of 10,000 people stationed in 4752, which is enough to deal with a small part of the world where trouble may occur.

Ryan noticed the suffix of Lowest Lord in the message and saw the name Emperor Will.

It is said that the fleets of the relatively weak Rogue Trader Dynasty will not have their own tax payment channels, and these more powerful ones will be difficult to be recognized as targets of double taxation by tax collection ships that have been encountered rarely.

Could it be that Chaos war gangs are jumping into gangs!

Li Teng flipped through the documents and asked, "You have only met the captain of their caravan once. He is just a junior officer. Can he take charge of their caravan's affairs? Or does he want to usurp power? Need your support."

That also resulted in managers becoming more and more like aristocrats rather than administrators serving the empire.

The emperor smiled and said: "Be strict with others and narrow with self-discipline. No matter when the tax collection ship comes, you always have to take stock of Ikaro's financial resources, and you should less trouble his new planetary governor. Take less care.”

Jie Lang's color turned hot. No matter what method we adopted, our tax officials had to collect enough taxes, and they would be stopped by any conditions.

As factories adjust production, few areas see natural sunlight for the first time.

People in the captain's room became relaxed and became very pessimistic.

"Li Zhongji Waiman knows what he is thinking. I will definitely kill you, but I will probably get sulky."

"He's too extreme. The punishment for no crime is bad. For serious crimes, we are allowed to atone for our sins through our own actions. People with dignity will help them to prevent them from being overwhelmed. Alas, Seventh Terra helps them Cleaning up the interior should be their main purpose, right?”

"Reporting to the commander, that is the message that was sent just before the Icaro star port resumed communications!"

Li Teng stood aside and took a glance, his face also showed a look of horror, and he stammered:

So we will be taxed less often. That is not the reason why Gorgat has been staying in Ikaro. It is the reason why he is willing to leave.

Just when the two of them were pondering whether the Seventh Terra was a conspiracy of Chaos or a small plan of the villain Regent, there was a sound of heavy footsteps. This was the sound exclusive to Space Marine power armor.

The captain of 4752 is Li Teng, a soldier who enlisted in the Imperial Navy.

With a smile on his face, Li Teng looked at the captain and tax officer and said sincerely:

Therefore, our tax collection ships in dangerous areas must ensure that they complete their mission every time.

That is a common trick of demons. After they cause trouble, they can even pretend to be a bad citizen and work hard for the empire for hundreds of years, and then stab him when he relaxes his vigilance.

Because there is no industrial smoke and dust clouds to accumulate cold energy, the surface temperature has become hotter. These engine oil guys who happily run around in various factories are concerned about various climate issues.

We only know that when we return to Holy Terra, we need to fill all the empty cabins.

Ikaro is just a planet, and these tax collection ships are the true manifestation of the empire's power.

For the human empire, he can't do anything except pay taxes.

After all, we are still serving the empire, so it would be better if we can do less knocking.

The Emperor continued: "Since they have no intention of serving Seventh Terra, you cannot give them citizenship of Seventh Terra. However, there is a mixed bag of people outside the Rogue Trader ship, and you need to screen out the little villains among them. Disciple, give us the rewards we deserve.”

Before Gorgart left, the Emperor set off to find Gorgart and prepare for his first contact with the Imperial Government of Mankind.

When he saw the first line of this message, the tax officer Jie Lang exclaimed. His cerebellum, which had been working for 170 years, was shocked for the first time. It must be that I had implanted numerous... Without the metal bracket, the nerve connection would not be so smooth, otherwise the electronic screen would not have been thrown out just now.

Li Tengfu is a dangerous fixed star port. For the use of that port, Gogat's fleet has not yet had some major conflicts with the tax collection ship.

As for resting, Jie Lang calculated that he would have to work until he was seven hundred years old and all the operable organs in his body would fail before he could rest in a garden world.

Gogart waved his hands slowly and said:

But as time goes by, even if it is the so-called area controlled by real power, the empire has direct jurisdiction over many affairs of Ikaro, and only collects taxes on time.

Li Tengfu achieved his goal and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something, slapped his forehead and said:

Many of those tax collection ships would not have their own names, and some would only have cold numerical codes to indicate their rank in the empire.

However, even if we pay the tax, the rotation of few tax collection ships in other sectors is only less than 70 years. These guys will only update who is in arrears, and will not update who has paid until they return to Terra. .

When Gaugart heard that, he didn't mind and said happily:

The tax officer I serve is one of the tax officers of the Holy Terra Administration Department, named Jielang Harter.

The sergeant's report came from the door, and a correspondent brought over the electronic screen board on which the information had just been entered. Outside the background of the screen, there were still a few handwritings that had just been degaussed and the report had been cleaned up.

Li Tengfu's voice became louder and louder, and he even became less coy.

"Oh, little man, don't think so. You are loyal to the captain, little man. It's just that I don't have any personality problems with the captain. I just want to have less contact with others and just shut myself outside the main control room. So in my daily work It's all handled by your junior officers. But if you want to summon the captain, I will definitely come to see you."

But these civilizations are at least those who know and fear, and we are not aware that it is a blasphemy against the sacred Terra.

In these star regions where a tax collection cycle takes hundreds of years, few tax collection ships are even attacked or involved in wars, and they simply bring back no supplies.

Few government officials actually know the names of the Lowest Lords, only our positions. However, it is actually very complicated to verify whether a person is a Lowest Lord. As long as he is connected to Hatak of the Council of Holy Terra, he can know.

As long as there is no rebellion on the other side, even if there is a civil war within Li Tengfu, and no one can pay the taxes, we will recognize whoever is the planetary governor of Ikaro.

Li Teng laughed involuntarily when he heard that. People are not used to finding reasonable reasons for the things they see. Otherwise, there is no way to understand how that kind of thing could happen.

"Profanity, blasphemy! That must be blasphemy! How dare these guys use that name!"

Geron Hartle is one hundred and seventy-one years old this year, but he looks very different from a middle-aged man in his seventies. He had undergone life-extending surgery in his early years, because the meaning of the surgery was that he could not participate in the weak. Although he had been working hard for a long time, he was still forced to retire 4752 as a tax officer, leading the taxation work in that star region.

Well, Ender, you're not complaining about that job, you're just asking you to have mercy on your suffering soul and let you rest smoothly.

These young civilized people were destroyed, and many people could still repent before they knew the truth.

Only Jie Lang himself can use a thick notebook pressed with paper to record his work log. In daily work, we do not use those electronic tools that are said to be pre-falling, but also definitely considered intelligent.

Until a trace of intense heat seemed to blow through the endless jungle. A small space warrior wearing dark green power armor and bearing the logo of the founding group of the White Angels walked out of the jungle out of thin air. In front of him was another extreme warrior. The warrior, with the two behind them, was a young man who was talking about how to evaluate it, looking at the tax collection ship full of resources with satisfaction.

"But, but sir! The other party does not have the signature of a lowly lord!"

At present, the rumors of the Tyranids attacking in the river have not yet spread in the empire. Various battle groups are rushing to the rear line. The situation is even more serious than when Qu Yuanzheng just ended.

When 4752, who was comparable in size to the King of Glory but did not carry many protective weapons, arrived in the real world, he immediately stopped and drove towards Icaro.

"About seven months later, the list of Lowest Lords did indeed increase by one. You only remember Li Teng's code name, which means Great Monarch. That is definitely a real name, but that name definitely represents the plan of the little regent. What about something?”

"Sir, within forty years, we will definitely be able to cultivate a stable and inherited navigator and the Hatak family. The Seventh Terra will not be able to form a fleet on its own, and then explore these lost worlds and have its own caravan. Of course, your caravan is also willing to contribute to the Seventh Terra——"

Very rarely, the Rogue Trader ships heading to Ikaro would see the same tax collection ship several times in seventy years. Even the captain of the next tax collection ship had not yet died at the edge of the galaxy. The tax collection ship Under the boat were the captain's recently handed tax records and fingerprints.

Gaugart had a smile on his face, as if "If the father abandons me, I would like to be my adoptive father."

The climate of Li Tengfu is very different from that of Holy Terra. It has eight seasons a year. Summer lasts for a long time, but there is no autumn. It will turn into winter in just a few days.

Under this electronic screen, the symbol of the Empire's double-headed eagle came to life, but the name he used to call himself was-Seventh Terra!

The emperor smiled and said: "Forget it, when you traveled through the subspace channel, you haven't seen their captain yet, so what's the problem? In fact, as rogue traders, they are free and restrained. They often only need to hand over something to local snakes, or use Is it bad to abide by the laws of a small number of empires against planetary governors? Why do you have to bear the name of Seventh Terra? You know, in other sectors, especially those areas where the empire's military power is entrenched, when you hear the Seventh Terra. Pulling that name means that the first reaction is not to call them up. "

"Being a planetary governor is really a complicated thing. The bad thing is that Seventh Terra's system is complicated enough. Otherwise, you will definitely be driven crazy by these complicated matters."

Degart stopped complaining as soon as he saw the emperor. I claimed that I even saw a life-support device fixed under the desk. It was a device retained by the earliest Ikaro colonists when they opened up the territory.

And Ikaro is a planet controlled by the empire, so it will definitely make such an accuracy. Using the name Seventh Terra in this way is obviously a provocation to the political system of Holy Terra and wants to unite power from within the empire!

The next time he followed the signal from the old star warriors to rescue the Seventh Terra, it was also to sneak out for a while and avoid the time when Icaro would collect taxes.

"By the way, have you heard that Icaro's identification code has changed? But the Governor's Palace has been out of contact for a long time, and no new person has stepped down? It must be that he knew that the time to collect taxes was coming, and deliberately performed that An internal rebellion, crying to you to pay taxes.”

Lowgart said: "But according to what you know about the power structure of the empire, when one layer after another of power is superimposed on the lowest lords, these low lords alone will not have huge power and belong to one body. Moreover, The Minotaur Chapter has said that the low lords did conspire against each other."

As a retired Imperial Navy officer, Ryan's temperament and temperament were sometimes cautious, which made Jie Lang, an Imperial official, want to retreat too recklessly.

That's why few Space Marines who need to participate in the Atonement Crusade have to die in battle to prove our so-called loyalty. And after we die in battle, will any Imperial officials have mercy on those who are not even the slightest bit tainted by Chaos? people.

"Ikaro's subspace frequency has not been that frequent recently. You think it is very unlikely that there has not been a demon invasion outside. It is after the Old Star Warriors and the Minotaur Chapter are also in the distance. Maybe the security has not been controlled yet. , but you still have to be more careful.”

In the seventh month of winter, Ikaro's starport belatedly received word that Imperial tax collection ship No. 4752 would arrive eight sidereal days ago.

In the early days of planetary development, these people were the epitome of Imperial administrators.

In the empire's past expeditions, almost every time, these civilizations that they thought were remnants of the White Dark Age of Technology were found, claiming to be the civilization of Terra.

In that case, the empire would need fewer resources to meet the demands of the war.

The things stored in the first few years have even started to rot, but no one has the time to organize and store them.

The Emperor replied: "The most basic data work is the foundation of the Seventh Terra system. It is certain that the data is vague or even false, and everything that follows is meaningless. In order to prevent rebellion, Holy Terra divided administrative powers It’s too bloated, with few departments handling one thing across the other, not to prevent any one department from monopolizing a small part of the power.”

"You go ahead and check, villain. When you go back, find out the names of the people who are boarding in your caravan and kill us all!"

The emperor looked at Gorgart, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed.

These powerful Rogue Trader fleets don't have many ghosts and monsters under them. They can barely protect themselves. They must have taken refuge in some weak dynasties, or specifically wandered in safer star areas. Otherwise, they will only be pulled back step by step by the hungry appetite of the empire. .

After all, the low lord behind him commanded the Regent's Ultramarines sub-group and took control of the planet in one day. The Minotaur Chapter who came just went through the motions and followed the Emperor's order. Small cracks.

That calf is still at the level that I have contact with at this time. It was better to establish a relationship early, but it was a bad thing before.

I pointed to the bottom of the message. First there was the two-headed eagle (silver on one side) symbol representing the Seventh Terra, followed immediately by the symbol of the Old Star Marines, which was not the sub-group of the Ultramarines. , there is no White and Dark Angel logo on the front.

If the previous Rogue Trader fleet encountered any tax collection ship, it would be judged as having not paid taxes.

The emperor smiled and said: "You must be so pessimistic. He is the person who is being watched by Ender. There are many things in that world that can crush him. While these tax ships are still arriving, let's calculate the seventy years of anomaly first. You need to submit a lot less for your tithe.”

When he met Digat, the former was learning the so-called political vocabulary so as not to appear like a political novice when he came into contact with people in Ikaro.

"By the way, little man, let's count the days. The tax collection ship is arriving late. Well, your fleet actually doesn't have any big tax problems. If you are caught right and wrong - "

Obviously the tax issue of Gorgart's Rogue Trader fleet is not what I said, it is a big problem.

Um? Are there any Space Marines stationed under 4752?

At the edge of the local star system, a crack in the subspace channel was opened, accompanied by terrible thunder and lightning that ignited sparks in the real world. Do you know whether a ship sailed out of that portal, or whether these thunder and lightning drove the matter planted inside? A ship is being gradually assembled.

A small part of the ship's cabin was filled with collected materials, food, weapons and even people.

"Welcome to the Seventh Terra. Thanks to Li Teng's grace, you are in need of resource support for building the webway. Anyway, they are all handed over to Terra. The taxes from the tax collection ship will be coordinated to you on the Seventh Terra. ”

Even though Ikaro is located in an area controlled by the empire, and no one travels to and from Holy Terra all year round, those white ships still need seventy years to complete the tax collection process without subspace channels. Settle the taxes on the imperial planet in that sector.

At this time, Hartak was in Ryan's office, as if he was here to report on his work and report on the recent progress of psyker teaching.

Then we returned to Icaro with a delay of several months. We wanted to completely solve the tax problem registered by the tax collection ship No. 4752, but we only managed to break the leg of a lowly lord and quickly eliminated the white history.

Now supporting the Tyranid Zerg's retreat, those Chaos Demons are holding back, stirring up trouble in a way that is close to rebellion and open provocation, causing chaos within the empire.

And by this time, I am afraid that I only have one or two years left to live, and there is no way I can waste all my time on the road.
