Chapter 902, I want to see Gu Hang

Chapter 902, I want to see Gu Hang
Only 20 percent of people survived.

The gene seed inheritance of the Blood Angels is not very stable. Like the Phoenix and the Bat, they are all chapters with few offspring. It is simply incomparable to the three large chapters of Infinity, Saints, and Punishers. Even the Golden Knights and the Angels of Death have stable inheritance.

Like the Blood Angels, under normal circumstances, each chapter also has to worry about the inheritance of its own chapter, fearing that there will be no successors, or that the sub-chambers or brother chapters will be quietly annihilated...

How many Space Marines are there in the entire Imperium, including all the loyal Blood Angels successor chapters added together?

This data is difficult to count because the various chapters are distributed throughout the empire, fighting and replenishing all the time. But roughly speaking, there are about 130 Blood Angels chapters currently registered and still have activity records 20 years before the Cataclysm.

But most of the battle groups are not fully staffed.

This is quite normal for Space Marines. Even for those chapters with a high degree of gene-seed adaptability, since they are always going to war, it takes one or two years to train new recruits, have a success rate for surgical implants, and complete the implantation surgery for the superhuman organs to grow completely... In short, the speed of replenishment is limited.

In this case, it is normal that the regiment is not fully staffed in most cases.

After all, most battle groups do not have the ability to ensure that they have a regular force of one thousand people while also having hundreds of reserve troops who are not part of the battle group, so that they can be quickly replenished when the battle group suffers losses.

To be honest, it is hard to say whether this behavior has crossed the red line of the Space Marine Codex.

The Blood Angels' relatively low gene-seed adaptability resulted in a low success rate for the operation, and the difficulty in recruiting new soldiers made their situation even worse.

In general, the total strength of the 130 Blood Angels' chapters, as most of them were not fully staffed, was probably around 60,000 men before the Cataclysm.

When the Mother Group, the home planet of the Son of God, Primus, was under serious threat, almost all the Blood Angels who could hear the news were able to heed the call of the Mother Group and rush to join the defense.

And now, they were almost completely wiped out in this battle, with only three or four thousand people left...

So many chapters were completely destroyed, so many fighting brothers fell in a pool of blood... This made Dante recall once again the endless dream he fell into when he was on the verge of death.

He was in so much pain that he almost fainted.

Dante took everything as his own responsibility.

He didn't do it well.

"But we won!" Sosa's words interrupted the grief of the imperial hero.

"You call such a tragic result a victory?"

"Of course." Sosa said, "You have persisted until the arrival of the Alliance and destroyed most of the Zerg's manpower. Now, the biggest threat has been eliminated. What we need to do next is to continue to clear out the local Zerg in the star field and save the worlds that can still be saved. The Chapter can also return to its glory after reconstruction. You are a well-deserved hero of the Empire!"

His attitude seemed so natural.

This appearance made Dante feel that there was a clear stupidity in him.

He was a little angry, the kind of anger that comes from being fooled.

However, the anger soon dissipated.

They are just a chapter that was established only 23 years ago, which means that this tall and extraordinary Space Marine is just a little guy with only twenty years of service.

Although, after more than 20 years of service, he can no longer be called a new soldier, but he is not a veteran either. It is normal to be naive when thinking about some issues. In a sense, what Sousa said is not wrong.

But how difficult is it to rebuild the worlds that have been severely destroyed by the Zerg invasion?
How difficult would it be to rebuild the many Blood Angels sub-regiments that have been essentially destroyed, are on the verge of destruction, or have only one or two companies left?
This difficulty is so great that even a hero like Dante would be daunted.

It is the young people like Sousa who are ignorant and fearless, thinking that the so-called "rescue" and "reconstruction" are just lip service.

Dante, who didn't want to talk about this topic, mentioned another thing: "I felt a very strange power in my body... What's going on?"

His eyes turned to his own pharmacist.

This kind of thing must be answered by one of Dante's own people, which will make Dante more trustworthy.

However, the Blood Angel's pharmacist turned his gaze towards Sosa beside him.

Sousa said, "Let me tell you."

"Your previous injuries were so severe that there is almost no special way to prolong your life. Therefore, after seeking the consent of many Blood Angels, we performed Primaris transformation on you. Fortunately, although the Primaris transformation operation is very dangerous, especially for seriously injured people, your condition is quite good. As long as time passes, you will be able to recover as before with the new power, and you can also gain more powerful power..."

Hearing this, Dante interrupted Sosa and asked, "Primaris transformation? What is this?"

"A new technology that allows Space Marines to..."

"New technology? When did the Empire have this new technology?"

"This is Leader Gu Hang..."

"How dare he tamper with the sacred gene-seed of the Space Marines?!"

Dante was extremely furious!
He turned around and questioned his own pharmacist: "You are just going to watch this heretical technology being used on me? Emperor, I would rather die!"

Before the pharmacist could say anything, Sosa's attitude changed.

Of course, he still had respect for the heroes of the Empire, and this was the Chapter Master of the Gene Mother Group. However, he could not accept that he called the Primaris technology a heresy.

"Heretical technology? This is the technology that our great leader Gu Hang brought out! Under the transformation of Primaris technology, we will become stronger and purer, and be able to better serve humanity and be loyal to the Emperor. Although I respect you very much, Mr. Dante, this is not a reason for you to attack Governor Gu at will."

"Gu Hang, the Gu Hang from the alliance, the ambitious Gu Hang..."

"I have to correct you again." Sosa said with a straight face, "Under the leadership of Governor Gu, the Alliance has completed the recovery of 40% of the territory of the Dark Side of the Empire. At the same time, we have also opened up the connection between the Dark Side of the Empire and the Holy Border of the Empire, and are marching towards Holy Terra. Even if there is still some distance to Governor Gu Hang's grand goal of saving the entire empire, there is no doubt that we are on the right path. In any case, you should maintain due respect for such a hero, leader, high lord of the Empire, and archon of the Dark Side who is greater than you."

At this point, Sosa added something that Dante could not refute:
"What's more, the Alliance saved the mother group and the mother planet. If it weren't for the arrival of the Alliance, the Blood Angels would have been truly destroyed, and the entire star field would have been devoured. The Zerg aliens, which would have recovered and become even more powerful, would have brought greater disasters to more human worlds. If that happened, not only would you be a sinner, but the entire Blood Angels would also be sinners of the Empire. The Alliance saved us Blood Angels, both in terms of inheritance and reputation. From any perspective, you should not only respect him, but also thank him."

After hearing this, Dante was silent for a long time.

After a long while, he slowly said, "I want to see Gu Hang."
