Zhou Qing's lofty moral bottom line and noble conduct made Guilliman willing to believe him, but as the Primarch of the Empire, he still had to ask this question.
However, when he actually asked the question, he had already made a decision: he was willing to provide Zhou Qing with a psionicist.
"Of course, you should know me to some extent. I would never harm my fellow human beings."
Zhou Qing's answer also confirmed this point; Zhou Qing's answer was trustworthy.
Guilliman didn't know why, but he had this feeling in his heart that the person in front of him was trustworthy.
"Alright, since that's the case, then I agree. I will provide you with psionicists, and you can freely build your psionic legion."
"For the sake of the continuation of the human race, please use this power with extreme caution."
He was very serious, and his expression was solemn. Under his influence, Zhou Qing also answered with a serious expression.
"That's just how it is—"
The deal was struck: Guilliman would provide Zhou Qing with psionicists, and Zhou Qing would now begin repairing the Imperial warships.
The warships first landed on the surface of a planet, and then Zhou Qing took out 1 engineering robots from his small spatial pocket.
Instead of immediately starting to repair the warship, these engineering robots began to manually create more robots after Zhou Qing took out more resources obtained from Otara.
After reaching a number of 20 engineering robots, they began working, using abundant resources and various resources collected on the planet as their main materials to construct the Empire's warships.
The materials used could not possibly be the interstellar alloys found among the stars.
They used the resources obtained from Altramor, with only a small amount of additional alloy resources, to build these warships.
It didn't take long to repair these imperial warships. Just three days later, the imperial fleet was as good as new again, and Zhou Qing even added an extra shield for them.
Since Guilliman was willing to grant his request so readily, Zhou Qing naturally reciprocated by adding basic shields to the Empire's ordinary warships.
To be honest, he still can't understand why the Empire's shields are so bizarre. How did those warships even manage to collide with each other? Why didn't the shields function at all when the warships collided?
To avoid seeing the recurrence of tactics like "jumping onto the board" that have been phased out for countless years.
Therefore, Zhou Qing made his own choice: he chose to add basic shields to these imperial warships.
The Imperial warships of today are different from those of the past. If those Chaos Space Marines still want to use boarding tactics, Zhou Qing can simply tell them no!
Impossible, unless they can break through the basic shield.
Before the shield's energy is depleted, it is absolutely impossible to allow those Chaos Space Marines' warships to board again, and of course, the Void Shield will remain in place.
However, Zhou Qing had to admit that he was quite impressed by the Void Shield technology of this human empire; it was indeed a formidable weapon.
Its principle is just like what my own warship AI reported before; it's like a garbage disposal device.
Therefore, such a shield is quite useful when facing physical attacks.
After completing the maintenance of the Imperial warships, Zhou Qing also incorporated the Empire's Void Shield into his technological reserves.
The Imperial warships, now fully repaired, also set sail again, taking off from the warplanet and returning to orbit.
Every warship in the expeditionary fleet has undergone meticulous maintenance and upkeep, resulting in the fleet looking even newer than when it first departed from Altramor.
However, after the warship set sail again and entered space, Zhou Qing discovered something new.
Network technology is not unfamiliar to the Human Federation. In the middle period of the Human Federation, the technology had already begun to be used within the Federation.
It wasn't an ordinary stargate network; after all, the Fallen Empire's warships possessed some unknown technology that allowed them to freely traverse between various stargates.
The Human Federation discovered this problem after Tianjin IV encountered its first attack.
Therefore, federal scientists studied another type of network technology.
Therefore, Zhou Qing was no stranger to the network technology. When the warship had just taken off, he discovered that there seemed to be a network gate on the neighboring planet that could lead into the network.
More importantly, for some unknown reason, this network can lead directly to the moon, which can undoubtedly greatly shorten the time spent traveling in subspace.
Upon making this new discovery, Zhou Qing's eyes lit up. Instead of ordering the fleet to set sail again, he went to find Guilliman once more and explained the new discovery to him.
This explains why Guilliman believed Zhou Qing so easily.
This guy has such high moral standards; even though he could make the decision himself, he still chose to come and discuss it with Guilliman.
Of course, it was precisely because of Zhou Qing's actions that Guilliman felt that Zhou Qing was trustworthy, so after Zhou Qing explained the Net Way, he expressed his opinion without any hesitation.
“If you feel that road is safe, then use that road. It’s a technical matter, and I don’t understand those technicalities.”
Chapter 66: Finally Arrival at Holy Terra
Guilliman didn't understand technology, but he knew how to respect those who did, just like he had Doraemon under his command.
Even if he objected, Zhou Qing would still go through the online path.
After all, the internet is much faster.
What he needs now is to quickly reach the solar system, then personally meet the being known as the Emperor and communicate with him.
If possible, he hoped to receive help from the human empire.
Although he develops independently, he also has this ability.
But if you can start much higher, why not?
The human empire may have incredibly outdated and nonsensical technology, but they do have one very reliable advantage: their population.
A large population is exactly what Zhou Qing needs at this time.
If the Imperium of Man can provide him with a large number of psionicists, he can build a psionic legion more quickly to launch a joint attack on the warp.
At the same time, if he has a large number of colonies, he can also obtain a lot of output and resources, and then build a huge fleet.
Whether it's using warships to attack or using psionic legions to attack warp gods.
In short, they are all things Zhou Qing needs.
All he wants to do now is get those guys who previously humiliated him to retaliate!
The fleet stopped again.
Zhou Qing himself came to the surface of the planet, and after scanning the surroundings, he saw the net-like path left by the Spirit Race.
Network technology is not considered a particularly advanced technology by the Federation of Humanities.
Zhou Qing simply appeared in front of the network channel, took out his equipment, conducted a detailed analysis, and then directly opened the door to this network channel.
Of course, this alone is not enough; it can only accommodate land units.
It was too difficult for warships to pass through, so Zhou Qing also added an enlargement to the net channel.
He took out a Zero Core from his spatial backpack and then provided a large amount of energy to gradually enter the network channel.
With some minor technical adjustments, the size of the network channel was quickly expanded.
Zhou Qing only stopped expanding the late-arriving passageway once it was large enough to accommodate a fleet of warships. After completing the expansion, Zhou Qing removed his own Zero Core.
This thing is a bit expensive, and I don't want to waste it now.
Furthermore, there's no need to keep this network channel open all the time; it's pointless.
After losing the energy supply from the Zero Core, this network can only last for a maximum of two hours, but two hours is more than enough.
After Zhou Qing boarded the shuttle back to his patrol ship, Guilliman, who was standing to the side, was already dumbfounded.
If I remember correctly, my father, the Emperor, also ascended to the Golden Throne because of the Internet.
His father had been fiddling with it for so long and still couldn't figure out the network, but this scientist in front of him just casually fiddled with it and got the network working?
In other words, if Zhou Qing had existed at that time, would his father have needed to sit on the Golden Throne and would none of this have happened?
Sensing Guilliman's shock and seeing his dumbfounded expression, Zhou Qing reached out and gave him a high five.
"Come back to reality, Mr. Guilliman. Why do you make that face? It's just some rudimentary web technology, isn't it?"
"The speed this time is acceptable. After all, there is already an existing network here that we don't need to open up, so the speed is not bad, and the energy consumption is within an acceptable range."
"To be honest, if there wasn't a ready-made dirt road here, it wouldn't have been so quick to build a network of paths myself."
It would take me at least 45 days to build a network that leads to your Terra, which is too long.
Alright, that's enough talk, let's get going.
"Rough...basic internet technology?"
"Can you build a network tunnel yourself in 45 days?"
Guilliman's voice carried a dryness and disbelief that he himself was unaware of.
Okay, this is a technological crushing victory.
Guilliman ultimately chose to convince himself.
After all, he was known for his rationality, although this matter already seemed somewhat unbelievable to him.
But isn't it a good thing to be able to get to Terra quickly? Guilliman used this method to convince himself.
The fleet set sail again and successfully passed through the net passage, the other side of which was the moon.
This time, Guilliman and his expeditionary force no longer needed to endure the pursuit on the moon, because Zhou Qing was behind them.
Zhou Qing successfully brought them to the moon, and there was no attack from the Chaos Demons behind them.
The fleet successfully reached the surface of the moon without experiencing any war.
However, after the expeditionary fleet arrived on the moon, Guilliman approached Zhou Qing and made a request.
"Please have the fleet stop here. I need to contact Terra first, because if we advance rashly, we are very likely to be labeled as invaders by the Imperial Guard."
Guilliman's words were logical and well-organized, and Zhou Qing was able to understand them.
After all, if an outside fleet were to enter Tianjin IV and attempt to directly enter the Union, it would inevitably be attacked by the Federation fleet.
However, under normal circumstances, transportation between federations is very convenient, and it is rare for a fleet to enter without reporting it. It is only the peculiar technology of the Human Empire that leads to such a situation.
"Then, Your Excellency Guilliman, you may go and make contact with them. I will order the fleet to wait here."
Zhou Qing expressed his understanding.
After Guilliman made contact with the Human Empire, the Imperial Guard dispatched a fleet to Zhou Qing's fleet and provided guidance.
Guided by the Imperial Guard, the expeditionary fleet arrived in Terra's orbit and subsequently docked at the starport.
Zhou Qing and Guilliman disembarked from the cruiser together, while the psionic legion and planetary defense forces that Zhou Qing brought assembled at a military camp under the guidance of the Imperial Guard.
