Chapter 741: The King of Silence Arrives

In the laboratory, the three big guys looked at the densely packed empty culture tanks in front of them and looked at each other in silence. Finally, Guilliman spoke first:
"Is this technology really that expensive? I am not as good as Zhuang Sen in leading troops in battle, and I am not even as good as Lorgar in personal strength, but I don't believe you if you say it is expensive.

Who am I, Guilliman? The Ultramar 500 world is proof of this. Over the years, without me, the Empire would have starved to death. With my operational capabilities, even if your technology is sky-high, I can still bring the price down."

"you sure?"

Guilliman was silent this time, and then he saw Hogg took out a form from the laboratory table and threw it to him. The densely packed list of materials dazzled him, especially the statistical figure at the bottom. He even suspected that Hogg had moved the decimal point three more times.

"Why is it so expensive?"

"Because cheap goods are not good! And these are just basic materials, not including the later weapons and equipment. This is why I only made 3000 soldiers. We, Blackwatch, can't afford more."

Hearing this, Guilliman felt that it was not Hogg's fault. Although the cost of each warrior was indeed a bit high, he could afford it if he gritted his teeth. At worst, he could ask other brothers to share the burden. But just as Guilliman was about to agree, Roland beside him suddenly discovered the problem:
"Hogg, why do I feel like there's something wrong with your form?
After all, we only need ordinary Space Marines who are well fed and in large quantities. Many of the items above are completely unnecessary. And this one has a physical output of 12 tons. Are you making a Custodes?

No, you are making the Guards! And this, why does each warrior need the same weight of gold? You bastard, we still trust you so much, you really wrote three decimal places in front! "

Roland's words instantly woke Guilliman up. No wonder he felt something was wrong. Hogg was so stingy that he was unwilling to invest at such a high price. It turned out that he was waiting for us here.

"Hogg, where's Hogg? Explain it to me!"

I didn't expect Roland to be able to understand the table. If I had known, I wouldn't be so greedy. I must strictly control the quality in the future. Now that things have come to this, Hogg can only admit defeat on the spot:
"No, no, no, we are brothers. Hey, hey, hey, didn't I take the wrong one? Look at this. Ouch! Look at my brain. This is the expense list."

Hogg took out a table from the corner, exactly 1‰ of the previous one, no more, no less. Guilliman and Roland were so angry that they wanted to bite the bastard to death on the spot.

But as if things weren't bad enough, just when Hogg thought he had gotten away with it, Roland spoke again:
"No, I just used the terminal next to me, and it showed that the 3000 Space Marines were only meters tall when they left the incubator. Your equipment is also false. How could they...

I get it. No wonder you insisted on dragging me in to draw blood. My gene seed can make my offspring bigger. Those people before were just for show, and you are still trying to make money!"

Now Guilliman and Roland were really angry. It turned out that Hogg had been fooling them from the beginning to the end, and it was all a setup from the beginning to the end. They were so angry that they instantly released the essence of the subspace. One of them emitted lightning of psionic energy, and the other's body expanded instantly. Countless cat hairs turned from orange to red, and it was about to explode on the spot.

"No! Brothers, please listen to my explanation. I...ah! Don't hit me in the face, don't hit me in the face, I was really wrong."

Hogg knew he was in the wrong and didn't dare to resist, especially because he was afraid that the two of them would destroy his laboratory. Everything here was priceless and he would be heartbroken if they broke something.

However, Guilliman and Roland didn't care. Seeing Hogg crouching with his head in his hands and glancing at the surrounding experimental equipment from time to time, they got very excited and started beating him with their fists.

In the past ten thousand years, Hogg had never suffered such a setback, and Guilliman and Roland had never enjoyed such a good time. The Black Watch, who heard the news, opened the door. They didn't know what their father was doing. Didn't they agree to kill two fat sheep? Some people had already planned to move into the White Light, so why did they start fighting now?

But as the door opened, a relatively young figure was seen by Guilliman and the other man who were beating Hogg. It was Thor, who had just teamed up with Hogg to deceive them.

Looking at the young man who was less than two meters and five meters tall, the two men were so angry that they laughed. They turned around and started to beat Hogg more violently.

"I told you to report false accounts, I told you to deceive people, and you even teamed up to cheat me. If you don't explain yourself today, you can forget about this lab."

It is easier to invite a god than to send him away. In order to keep his laboratory, Hogg could only take out another bill of materials from his pocket.

Guilliman grabbed the form and threw it directly to Roland, who was obviously more knowledgeable than him. After his brother repeatedly reviewed and compared it, he finally nodded:
"This should be true. I still feel like this bastard isn't telling the truth, but it's almost there. Why don't we just let him go?"

"Yes, yes, I won't dare to do it again. My second brother said it's okay, so it must be okay. Otherwise, you can put down my one-way particle converter first. That thing is very expensive."

When he thought about entrusting Hogg with manufacturing it later, and that this guy was not only sharing technology but also making contributions to the empire, Guilliman's anger subsided.

"Don't do it again! This time I really know where your Blackwatch's wealth comes from. You should pack up and sell the entire production line. I'm afraid that all the brothers will hate you by then. This is too dark."

Hogg thought about it and it made sense. Since he couldn't make big money, he could just earn some technical shares. It was just a production line. He could charge for upgrades in the future. Sooner or later, he would be able to save enough materials to build the White Light.

In the following time, Hogg was closely monitored by the two men. They were like screws, watching Hogg being installed on the spot, and never giving him any chance to cheat.

When the Blacklight arrived at Holy Terra, Hogg had already built two prototypes that could perform super-can manufacturing. Each machine could connect to up to 100 culture chambers. As long as the gene seeds were placed, the receptors in the culture chambers could be transformed within ten days.

Hogg believed that with Blackwatch's manufacturing capabilities, this device called the Super Canning Machine would definitely be able to empty the coffins of every legion, and together with the Flesh Reshaping Chamber, it would become Blackwatch's star product to realize its own Plan B.

However, just when Hogg was planning to go to Holy Terra to plan big things with Old Man Huang, an uninvited guest came to the snack street in front of the palace.

Looking at the bustling streets around him, Szalak always felt that it was a bit unreal, especially when he saw the four losers next to him eating a lot, he felt very embarrassed.

But when he thought that his body was also a Rick, the great Silent King decided to give it a try first:

"It's so fragrant!"
