The warp rift was closed, but the war wasn't over yet.
Daemons that had been released and materialized in reality by possessing corpses still existed in considerable numbers—this one raid had at most eliminated one percent of them.
Furthermore, the Tyranid threat still existed.
The hive nest had been removed, but many bugs still remained on the ground, needing to be cleared as well.
And the cyclonic torpedo that had been dropped also needed to be stopped.
"D99 virus?"
The Salamanders captain accepted a box that was handed to him, looking like a safe. But it felt very fragile, like something manufactured in a world that hadn't yet reached the space age.
Then, the recipient before him explained that this D99 virus was found in one of his worlds.
In that world, this virus could cause immune system abnormalities in a short time, but correspondingly, cells would also become activated.
This way, cells wouldn't die for a very long time and would continue rapid proliferation, allowing various transplant surgeries to be tolerated without rejection phenomena.
Hearing this, Airet understood how incredible this thing was.
Of course, the other party didn't guarantee it would be effective for Astartes monk modifications.
"Which planet was that?"
"I forgot about that, and besides, that place was destroyed for various reasons—only these samples and vaccines remain."
Regarding this answer, Airet didn't pursue further questions.
"There's also this."
The other party handed over another small box. Opening it, he saw it contained what they called panacea—the same stuff distributed to them during the recent assault on the traitors.
This could be said to be the best healing potion he'd ever used.
Oh right, regarding the Ordo Xenos Inquisitor being killed by the other party, their Salamanders squad's expression was unclear—they hadn't seen it.
As for surveillance? Sorry, it malfunctioned.
The Deathwatch commander also said he hadn't been able to catch him and let him escape.
Simply put, they were playing dumb.
"Take this for research too, along with some related formulas. But I don't guarantee these formulas are useful, because some formulas were made for materials that existed in past eras—I don't know if those materials still exist now."
This was different formulas composed of materials from different periods that Ejie had exported from the panacea system. If those materials still existed in this current era, then making panacea according to the methods above wouldn't be a problem.
"Finally, give this to Kohl A-meng too."
"The Arch Mago's name is wrong."
"Don't worry about it."
The last thing to be given looked quite large in volume. Airet had also seen two of these in the hangar, about the same size as Land Raider tanks.
This thing was indeed a tank, but he'd never seen this model.
"This isn't a battle tank, but an STC."
"STC?"
"Right."
Ejie shrugged. This thing looked like a battle tank, but was actually part of an STC.
This thing's design also looked more sci-fi, very similar to a combination of the Prism Tank and Magnetron from Red Alert.
The two units weren't one whole—it was equivalent to him obtaining two sets of STCs, though neither was complete.
Having given these things, Ejie didn't say what he wanted the other side to give.
Just talking about this D99 thing—if it could really show unimaginable effects, the other side would definitely bring better things next time, making him feel more secure.
After all, if he was finished, the Arch Mago's side wouldn't be able to obtain good things anymore, so he would naturally want to find ways to improve his security.
With unloading complete, he was also preparing to set off for the next stop.
At this time, the quantum communication system received information—a message from the Arch Mago.
Because he had also sent a message to the Arch Mago just now, informing him of the situation.
As for why he only got a reply after an hour, it probably wasn't that the Arch Mago only received the information an hour later.
This information arrived instantly. The reason for replying an hour later wasn't that the other side only noticed his sent information an hour later.
Rather, the other side needed preparation time to send information.
The Arch Mago had one of his quantum communication devices, but this device had problems.
Simply put, the battery had failed. When it was given to him at the time, it could barely be used, but later it ran out of power and the battery died.
Later, the Arch Mago figured out how to research this thing himself and really got it powered. But it needed some time to barely communicate.
However, the communication state had dropped from direct video calls to the level of pager messages.
Sending one message, the next transmission would require several days of preparation.
Of course, it definitely wasn't as simple as just charging, but required some kind of energy conversion to reach some quantum level.
This message informed him that at the next stop, there was a personal armory he had left behind where he could get some weapons. The other content asked him to see if he could obtain this kind of technology.
If he could get it, power armor could be upgraded again, and maybe the full power of power armor could be perfectly utilized without needing to implant Astartes black carapace.
This technology also made Ejie pause—it seemed like it wasn't impossible to obtain.
Speaking of which, his positioning—could it be that the Arch Mago had somewhat figured out this communication and was tracking his location?
Clang—
"Ow—"
A pained sound leaked from Tessa's lips. Because she had accidentally slipped and fell on her bottom.
Beside her, a bottle of body wash was still rolling on the ground.
After seeing that Mr. Gold's side had passed through the real crisis, and after her conversation with the lieutenant colonel and major had ended, she took a shower preparing to sleep.
After washing almost completely, while wiping the moisture from her body, she closed her eyes to go online and check, when she suddenly received this information.
The other party wanted to come to her world and asked if she was willing.
This information surprised her so much that she became flustered and slipped, also knocking down the body wash with her hand.
Not caring about the pain in her bottom, Tessa quickly got up, somewhat clumsily got dressed, and immediately went to find the lieutenant colonel and major.
"What should I do? Deputy Captain, should I agree? Or refuse?"
"Calm down. What does the other party want to do when they come here?"
"Ah?"
"You didn't ask?"
"I, I'll ask right away."
Tessa laughed awkwardly, because she was somewhat at a loss and forgot to ask.
After learning about the other party's purpose for coming, she was also stunned, then informed the lieutenant colonel and major.
After a moment of silence—
"Captain, if the other party isn't in a hurry, wait until you've had a good sleep before inviting them."
Currently, the captain needed good rest and sufficient energy.
Not just her—Richard and Andrew also needed rest.
The three of them needed to maintain the best mental state and the best rationality to deal with this visitor from another world.
"That's fine, the other party says no problem."
"Good, now Captain, you go rest well."
"O-okay."
Tessa understood why they wanted her to sleep.
After all, after handling the Pacific exercise crisis, she had now gone a day and night without sleep. Mental fatigue made people prone to confusion.
She needed good rest and a clear brain to welcome the other party.
Because the other party was coming to trade, and without a clear brain, she might be taken advantage of.
