Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 50

Chapter 50, Battle Group?

Gu Hang had expected the movement of the [Hero] interface.

Now that such a tragic battle is over, he can always upgrade, right?

Sure enough, he clicked on it and took a look. Among the heroes, he was the only one who had reached the standard for upgrading.

It was just that the price of this upgrade made him frown.

50 points.

The price of upgrading to level 2 was too expensive.

However, after this encounter, he was also eager to increase his personal strength.

After the upgrade, his own safety could be better guaranteed. Not to mention, the influence of a powerful psychic on battles below a certain scale is huge.

Even if the price is expensive, he intends to grit his teeth and upgrade himself.

But don’t rush.

There are some other changes in the [Hero] panel.

He saw that there were two more characters who could be activated as [Heroes].

One was Perbov.

After this battle, the captain of the miners from the Waste Cave Society seemed to be recognized by the system as a talented person who could be activated as a hero.

The other one was named Ossena Chenko.

Who is this person?

Gu Hang was confused.

Do I have such a person under my command?

Oh, it seems that there is.

Gu Hang remembered that in the statistical data of the refugees who had just migrated from Fuxing City, he glanced at the list of literate people, and this name seemed to appear on it.

What did this person do to make the system think that she is capable?

Gu Hang also became curious.

It’s not that she will be promoted to a hero immediately, but since she is recognized by the system as having certain potential, even if she is not promoted, she can be picked up and entrusted with important tasks.

Gu Hang seems to have discovered another use for this [Hero] function.

Talents can be found without upgrading.

Satisfied, Gu Hang closed the [Hero] panel and opened the newly appeared [Event] panel.

[An unknown event is happening. You can direct the event to a direction related to you. ]

[It costs 50 gifts to open this event. ]

[Countdown to the end of the event: 1 day and 6 hours]

That’s it?

You want to cheat me of 50 points of gifts without any information?

Gu Hang turned off the [Event] function without even thinking about it.

Then he really thought about it and turned it on again.

He was itching!

The unknown was so tempting.

“Generally speaking, the quality of things produced by the system is strongly linked to the number of grace points. The more you pay, the better the things you can get. Except for those two times when I drew technology cards, with a 40% probability but two consecutive misses, it seems that I have never been cheated…hiss? But is it also easy to be cheated when drawing unknown event cards? What if there is some hidden probability?”

Gu Hang was struggling with his mind for a while, and had many ideas.

He is not a person with a conflicted personality, but what can he do?

Too poor!

All the problems are caused by poverty.

If he had enough grace points, wouldn’t Gu Hang activate this event immediately and see what it is?

But if the unknown event is activated, the remaining 36 gifts will not be enough for the upgrade.

After thinking carefully for a long time, Gu Hang decided to trust the system.

Although it is a gamble, he still made this choice with the idea of “system products, value for money”.

Of course, the more important point is that he has a bottom line.

In less than two days, the month will be up. At that time, the monthly fixed income will be paid. According to the development momentum of Gu Hang’s forces, there should be thirty or forty points of income by then. It should be enough for him to upgrade to LV3.

Relatively speaking, the unknown event may need to be cherished a little more. After all, it has a countdown, and when the time is up, the event will disappear.

Limited-time lottery, I have to win it, right?

With this mentality, Gu Hang made the final choice.

The 50 points of grace disappeared in a snap, and a new message appeared in his vision:

[Event activated: Phoenix will die]

[A Space Marine Chapter that is about to be destroyed has ended its century-long atonement expedition and is approaching the Wrathful Owl Star. It seems that they are looking for redemption and hope here.]

[Please decide your actions carefully. Your behavior determines the next development of the event.]

[Event branch: unknown.]

…

When Gu Hang saw the new event prompt mentioning that a Space Marine Chapter was approaching the Wrathful Owl Star, he almost couldn’t control the expression on his face.

If there is a Space Marine Chapter to help him, what is there to worry about? No difficulty on the Wrathful Owl Star can stop the steps of an entire chapter.

The term “Space Marine” symbolizes glory, greatness… and death in the Empire.

They are the Emperor’s angels of death.

It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, the God-Emperor used himself as a template to create many different gene seeds, selected the best people, implanted the gene seeds, and formed the original Space Marines.

Each of them is an extraordinary being, with a body that is countless times stronger than that of an ordinary person. They wear special power armor connected to nerves. Their individual combat power is extremely terrifying, and fighting one against a hundred is just a routine operation.

Often, only a few Space Marines are needed to form a team to kill tens of thousands of troops and behead a general, and this is just their routine task.

They are real killing machines, and the angels of death are worthy of their name.

In the founding era, the major Space Marine Legions were the sharpest swords in the hands of the Emperor, and they made absolute contributions in creating the infinite territory of the Empire.

Then, about 10,000 years ago, after the Emperor ascended to godhood, all Space Marine Legions were split into small chapters. According to the provisions of the Holy Code, the size of a Space Marine Chapter is a maximum of 1,000 people.

Usually, a chapter will have a home planet. The home planet of the chapter does not need to provide taxes to the Empire, and all manpower and material resources belong to the chapter. The chapter can form mortal auxiliary troops and chapter fleets, and has great autonomy. They will respond to the highest level of the Empire’s call and throw themselves into the most terrifying battlefield. But apart from that, their actions are more arbitrary and have a high degree of freedom.

In Gu Hang’s understanding, it is like a combination of warlords and feudal lords.

Such a regiment is going to come to the Angry Owl Star?

Gu Hang soon calmed down.

As I said, the system product is worth the money. 50 points of grace, I am afraid you can’t exchange it for a Space Marine, let alone a regiment.

It’s not that good.

He also noticed the information provided in the event interface, this is a dying regiment.

That’s good.

If it was a strong regiment, he would have no say. The status of a regiment leader may be higher than that of the head of a star zone.

Gu Hang has realized that this event is a blessing or a curse. He really has to act cautiously as the system prompts, otherwise the consequences are unpredictable.

But in general, this also means opportunities.

If there are Space Marines who can provide him with help, he will have absolute guarantee of military force on the Angry Owl Star.
