If the Chaos Daemons took over, how heartbreaking would that be!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden felt a pang in his heart as he activated his psychic senses to scan the entire space hulk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his advantage: controlling the miniature sun, he possessed god-like power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was lucky that this space hulk had not been occupied by some terrible entity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the space hulk, there were only some Chaos creatures, scattered Void remnants, and a small group of relatively threatening Chaos pirates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this space hulk was enormous, almost half the size of the moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were cautious, he could avoid them for a lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that Eden could explore the treasure without taking too much risk!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden carefully controlled his psychic sense, exploring the space hulk bit by bit, searching for an STC or ancient relic that could be used to create powerful weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That way, he could quickly improve his combat power, break out of the hive city, and reclaim the entire hive world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the hive world was recovered, food, energy, and population would all be his—a dream start!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his psychic sense continued exploring, Eden saw a village of Void remnants hidden within a mountain of wreckage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These remnants were tall, dressed simply, and fed on the fungal colonies in the wreckage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remnants formed small teams to gather fungi from the outer wreckage, but their luck was bad—they encountered a group of Chaos creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a pity...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden thought these people were doomed. Facing such a large number of Chaos creatures, even an elite squad of the Astra Militarum would struggle to cope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Void remnants surprised him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their bodies were incredibly strong, wielding thick alloy spears, facing the oncoming Chaos creatures head-on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In no time, they had dealt with all the Chaos creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the warriors were wounded, they were still lively and energetic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They happily carried the corpses of the Chaos creatures back, seemingly preparing for some sort of ritual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were born warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was a chance to recruit them, how wonderful that would be!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The problem was that Eden was currently just a psychic consciousness, almost unable to communicate directly with these people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He marked the village, planning to return here once he had the power to recruit these Void remnant warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, even if Eden could teleport his physical body here, he wouldn't last long—Chaos creatures would tear him apart immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden's psychic sense moved past the remnant village, continuing to search for places that might hold lost technology, but unfortunately, most of those areas were occupied by Chaos creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, he found a more intact section of the ship, which seemed to be a residential area of a giant vessel, containing many valuable technologies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This section had become a Chaos pirate hideout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chaos pirates were filthy and mutated to varying degrees, with many sprouting void fungi from their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They used wet tentacles to grasp bottles of alcohol, drinking and spilling as they cursed and ranted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Beasts, come drink the finest Amasec!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Idiot, Gutrot's brew is the best!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You moron, do you want to die?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chaos pirates quickly started fighting, and soon, one side lay in a bloody heap, unable to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their minds had been corrupted by the Warp. They were more beasts wearing human skin than actual humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the pirate's hangar, ships landed and took off. Chaos pirates staggered as they dragged their loot off the ships, joining the ongoing revelry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden even saw one Chaos pirate carrying a Silent Sister down from the ship, though it was unclear which unfortunate Imperial ship had been raided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden approached cautiously; after all, knowing one's enemy was crucial. Eventually, he would have to face these people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a great treasure trove should be his alone to enjoy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving it to these drunken, thieving Chaos pirates would be a complete waste!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who's there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he got closer, he was noticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a red-haired female pirate leader, with fair skin and a voluptuous figure, surprisingly without any mutations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red-haired pirate sat on a throne in the wreckage hall, gazing in Eden's direction where his psychic presence was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way, she sensed me?\" Eden froze for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red-haired pirate raised a melta gun and fired in his direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ha, good thing I'm in a psychic state, with no physical body,\" Eden thought, relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since this fiery pirate couldn't harm him, he could stay and investigate the situation further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I found you! Show yourself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red-haired pirate seemed unwilling to give up. She floated into the air, her eyes glowing red as if she were searching for something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Gamma-level psyker!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strong sense of danger surged within Eden—he had only one thought: run!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly withdrew his psychic presence, moving through layers of metal wreckage, distancing himself from the ship section.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red-haired pirate didn't find anyone and reclined back into her throne, resting her chin on her hand, looking bored. \"Sigh, I thought something interesting was going to happen...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her name was Kaelinna, one of the Empire's most wanted criminals, charged with desecrating the God-Emperor and betraying the Imperium.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tch, Kaelinna was still indignant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All she had done was kill a few of the Empire's dogs on Holy Terra. Did that really warrant the High Lords ordering her death?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They even sent squads of Space Marines and several Inquisitors!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, she had escaped in time; otherwise, she'd be dead by now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid the hunt, she had been hiding in this cursed place for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How long?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorry, in the Warp, there was no concept of time or space—only endless Chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wish a handsome man would just drop from the sky for me to play with...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaelinna sighed, her ample chest heaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced at the ugly Chaos pirates still brawling, growing even more agitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shockwave exploded among the crowd, scattering the Chaos pirates in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shut up! Get lost!\" Kaelinna shouted in anger, unleashing a powerful psychic force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chaos pirates scrambled to their feet, bowing in submission to their queen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Eden's psychic presence was still fleeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That fiery woman was dangerous; he needed to get far away, as far as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, a Gamma-level psyker could not be judged by common sense—she might be able to inflict fatal damage even to his psychic state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rustle, rustle, rustle...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was that sound?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden realized he had entered a strange place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of him stretched an endless field of green rice, swaying gently in the breeze like emerald waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the rows of rice were small streams, with clear water flowing, and little fish swimming to and fro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, he felt as if he had returned to the fields of his homeland, and the tension in his heart began to ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Eden's daydream was quickly shattered, for he saw a robot in the field, a riveted metal robot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It hummed a little tune, carrying a rusty water tank, laboriously spraying pesticide over the rice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The metal robot suddenly sensed something, turning to face the gate with barely-contained excitement in its electronic voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome to Green Wave Farm, my master!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1215,"2026-06-06T13:29:01.687Z",1,"novelbin.me","2a471f46c7cd52fda6aa188adf781d6b9459a44b803880a7d9534f2c3fbcb55b","warhammer-starting-as-a-planetary-governor-chapter-13","warhammer-starting-as-a-planetary-governor-chapter-11",771,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarhammer-starting-as-a-planetary-governor-cover.jpg"]
