PFC Chapter 173 Gene-Seed Regiment Details
Chapter 173 Gene-Seed Regiment Details
The battle barge is a special ship of the Astartes. Its size is almost the same as the battleship of the Imperial Navy, and it is a main battleship with a length of about 8km.
After being modified to adapt to the Astartes' fighting style, it can be said that there are dangers everywhere on the hull.
Looking at the extremely thick armor, Lin Heng understood that this type of ship must be used to charge into the enemy camp.
There are at least five large cannons on each side of the ship. The closer you get, the more you realize how terrifying their diameter is.

If this thing had been used to fire at the nest tower on the planet El, it would probably have penetrated all the way to the lower nest.
The ship was escorted by three smaller ships, and after learning more about the situation, we found out that those ships were called Sword-class frigates.
The ship is about 1.6 km long and weighs an astonishing 600 million tons.

The Thunder Hawk gunship drove into the apron, and the battleship's hatch slowly closed behind him. As they arrived at the hangar, Lin Heng also saw the real Astartes regiment.
The mecha warriors, who were about two meters and three meters tall, were organizing their equipment in an orderly manner. Most of the crew members around them were modified mechanical servants.
Except for those Astartes with some curved lines, the rest of the body is straight.
Lin Heng clearly felt the metal frame, this was a hard and strong place without a trace of weakness.
There is a metallic coldness everywhere, and everything tells of the style of doing things in this place.

"Can you tell me about the organization of the regiment? At least let me know what to say to whom I meet.
After all, my service in the military taught me that not addressing someone by their name correctly in certain situations often leads to bad consequences.”
Lin Heng thought that he must not just call someone the wrong name the moment he opened his mouth. Ordinary soldiers were fine, but this group of Astartes were all so arrogant.
There are hundreds and thousands of war groups, and they can't even deal with their own people, so there is no way an outsider like me can deal with them.
Zachli nodded, signaling his fighting brothers to arrange their own actions, and then took Lin Heng to the ship.
"You know how many Primarchs there are, right?"
Lin Heng nodded and said:
"Yes, eighteen Primarchs."
For some reason, when Zachli finished saying this, he suddenly froze for a moment, as if he had heard some wrong answer.
"Yes, eighteen. The Great Fire Lord is the Primarch of the Eighteenth Salamanders Legion.
As for us, the Fire Covenant, we are a chapter that expanded again in accordance with the Codex Astartes in the later period.
In most cases, each regiment consists of about 1000 people, divided into ten companies.
The first captain is the regent, the second captain is the Lord of the Watch, who is responsible for the discipline of the chapter, and the third captain is the Lord of the Arsenal, who is responsible for the storage of equipment.
The fourth captain, the Lord of the Fleet, manages the Chapter's fleets, the fifth captain, the Lord of Marches, is in charge of march operations, and the sixth captain, the Lord of Ceremonies, preserves the Chapter's history.
The seventh company commander, the Lord of Logistics, is responsible for supplying supplies; the eighth company commander, the Lord of Execution, is responsible for judging the enemy; the ninth company commander, the Lord of Relics, is in charge of keeping the regiment's relics.
The Tenth Captain is the Lord of Recruitment, responsible for recruiting and training new soldiers, which is the standard template for each chapter.
There are different teams and different military positions among them, you will see them later."
Lin Heng nodded. This was indeed much more complicated than the organization of the Star Army. Fortunately, he asked this one more question, otherwise it would be very embarrassing if he called the wrong person.
"What about you? What does think tank mean?"
Zachli raised the corner of his mouth and said:
“Every Librarian is a psyker, and they all go through arduous training to obtain this position.
We play an important role. Outside the battlefield, we are responsible for interstellar mental communication. Inside the battlefield, we are responsible for using psychic power to kill all enemies.
In the latest trailer, the Librarian is wearing Terminator power armor (should be), a power axe plus psychic power, and Yalema.
No one knows the history and traditions of the Chapter better than we do. We record everything about the Chapter.
As long as one of the Masterminds survives, the history of this Chapter will not be lost in the galaxy."
Lin Heng nodded and understood. It was a psychic space warrior.
As the two walked and talked, Lin Heng gradually understood the formation of the Space Marines. Most of them had their own recruitment planets.
For example, the earliest chapters even had hundreds of planets for them to recruit new soldiers, while the Fire Covenant was more pitiful.
All of their Chapter's assets remain on this one Battle Barge, although two more Battle Barges are on missions in other systems.
But this feeling of being at home everywhere does seem a bit sad. If one is not careful and something goes wrong with the three warships, the Fire Covenant will become a thing of the past.
"It seems that your life is indeed not easy." Lin Heng said.
“No, it’s not just us, the people of the entire empire are having a hard time.
Therefore, we need to find the second Primarch to restore the Empire to its former glory."
After Zachley finished speaking, the hatch opened and a group of muscular men who were undergoing combat training stopped immediately.
The other party waved his hand to signal them to continue, and then the sound of fighting was heard in the training ground again.
"These are the scouts of the Tenth Company, and each of them has been inoculated with the gene seed of the company.
They have successfully survived at least three surgeries and are all future warriors who will bravely fight the enemy.”
Lin Heng looked at the group of muscular warriors, each of them was as strong as a bull.
If Zachli hadn't explained it in advance and if they didn't look stupid, Lin Heng might have really thought of them as sub-humans.
Because they are much stronger than ordinary people, and most importantly, their fighting skills are superb and their reaction speed is extremely fast.
You can compare him to a certain stupid guy named Ogryn. Of course, his body structure is more normal and he is smarter, although he is not as strong as him.
“They will continue the reconstruction surgery in the next two years. You are lucky Lin Heng.
Believe me, many regiments have lost some of their transformation technology due to years of fighting.
And their genetic seeds are also contaminated, which can cause adverse side effects in some cases.”
When Lin Heng heard this, he thought that would shorten his life and make him a powerful space warrior, but there is a side effect that often occurs.
Wouldn't this be the same as using up all your spiritual energy, causing all kinds of problems?
Zachli seemed to know what Lin Heng was thinking, and then he said proudly:
"But don't worry, the gene seed we gave you is from the founding chapter, and it is the purest and most stable one.
We had intended to leave it to some reservist whom we admired, but decades later, it still hadn't found its owner.
But now it seems that you, who have been blessed by the great Lord of Fire Dragon, should be worthy of possessing this gene seed.
It is the source of Space Marines, the starting point where it all began.
After you are vaccinated, the gene seeds will gradually transform your body, making you more adaptable to subsequent organ transformations.
It can also preserve your muscle memory and pass it on to the next generation of receptors."
As Zachary spoke, a Space Marine wearing white power armor and a hood walked towards the two of them.
Looking at the style of the other party's armor, Lin Heng knew that this man should be a well-known guy with a unique military position, otherwise he would not be wearing a unique power armor like the think tank.
Zachli saw the other party nodded and said:
"Lin Heng, this is the pharmacist in the regiment - Morton."
A pharmacist in a White Scars Chapter, responsible for healing and recovering the gene-seed in Space Marines, as well as other recyclable items
"Is this the man who stole the gene-seeds of the founding chapter? What ability does he have that could make the chapter master agree?" Morton said lifelessly.
When Lin Heng heard that this person had bad intentions, he realized that not everyone had a friendly attitude towards him.
But if you don't agree, go and tell your Chapter Master. Why are you pretending to be so arrogant? If there are gene seeds without side effects, why would I want those inferior ones?
"Brother Morton, this is what we should do," said Zachary.
Morton snorted coldly, then turned and left.
"Come with me."
Zachli nodded to Lin Heng, and then the two followed each other into the medical room.
“Although we are a little anxious, we also hope that you can become a Space Marine as soon as possible.
Become a brave and skilled Astartes before you find the Lord of Fire."
As Zachli said this, he took off the anti-psychic handcuffs and motioned Lin Heng to sit on the metal recliner.
"It's okay to hurry up. I have more or less seen the situation in this galaxy. It is still difficult for an ordinary person to play a role on the battlefield."
Are you kidding? Lin Heng wished he could become a Space Marine right now, immediately.
If he had the strength of a Grey Knight or other ordinary Space Marine, he would not have been beaten so badly by Gorkius.
He wouldn't be so scared that he would be dizzy if he stepped on a landmine. Strength is still strength. If he were stronger, everything would change.
At least, he might be able to live an easier life, at least he might have the power to choose.
Morton then fixed Lin Heng's limbs and head, and several mechanical arms carrying medicines immediately extended from the recliner.
As the medicine was injected into his chest, Lin Heng felt numb. At this time, Zachli stepped forward and said:
“Well, actually, if you are vaccinated with gene seeds at your age, the mortality rate is basically 100%.
Because everyone starts to be vaccinated with genetic seeds at the age of 12-14, the organs of the body are not yet mature, and it is easy to achieve faith stability.
At your age, you have become mature in all aspects, so the possibility of problems will be much greater.
But you were chosen by the Fire Dragon Lord after all, so I think you can make it through this."
Lin Heng's mouth opened wider as the other party spoke, as if he was just a test subject!
I was wondering why you are so polite. You want to get information from me first and then do some experiments, right?
"How can you be so embarrassed!"
"I'm just explaining the interests involved to you. We certainly hope that the ones selected by the Fire Dragon Lord can be inoculated with the gene seeds of the founding regiment." Zakli said.
"That's not it! Will you die if you tell me earlier?"
"Prepare for surgery," Morton said.
"*!"
