An order from the governor's office began to spread throughout the planet.
The Planetary Defense Force has been expanded to 2 million personnel, and all Imperial citizens who join the Planetary Defense Force, along with their families, will receive twice the rations of others.
This is not the time to treat these human citizens according to federal standards. For Zhou Qing at this moment, he could simply use local incentives, such as increasing rations!
His understanding over this period of time made it clear to him that even getting food was a problem for these citizens of the empire.
For them, wages are practically invisible, especially during wartime.
The simplest way to motivate them to work hard is to give them more food. They will then work harder. The same applies to recruiting soldiers. The simplest way to recruit soldiers is to give them more food.
The governor's order spread throughout the entire hive, and the human citizens within the hive naturally joined the army enthusiastically.
There was no other way; Zhou Qing had fed them so well during this time that they now wanted to join the army to preserve their affluent lives.
At this time, the cults and chaos sects within the hive city did consider standing up to stop them, but in the end, they were all wiped out by the administrative system brought by Zhou Qing and the mechanical legion.
Zhou Qing was not from a human empire. With just a light scan of his device, the entire system of the Nest City would appear in his security system. At that moment, arresting anyone would be as easy as catching a mouse for him.
A large number of cults were dealt with directly, but some people aroused Zhou Qing's curiosity.
However, a group of people aroused his curiosity.
Unlike the citizens of the empire, most of whom adhered to the state religion, the divine emperor was different.
There is also a group of people here who believe in the God Emperor, except that their God Emperor's statue is a four-armed God Emperor.
Of course, Zhou Qing wouldn't interfere with religious beliefs.
But the most bizarre thing is that these guys' genes have been subjected to a very large amount of pollution.
This means that after several generations, they will produce some deformed children, and their souls may not even be considered human.
Moreover, the sect they believe in includes so-called angels, and those guys are real heretics.
Their souls are not human; their genes are more like a swarm sequence, a kind of biological weapon.
This undoubtedly piqued Zhou Qing's curiosity and attention.
But these guys who shout "Four-Armed Emperor" are surprisingly brave when fighting the Greenskins.
They were far more combat-ready than ordinary imperial citizens and pdfs, almost like fanatical religious believers.
Zhou Qing was very interested in this person and wanted to find out exactly what the Four-Armed Divine Emperor was.
In addition to this, Zhou Qing also harbored a burning anger.
After having his little gray dog handle all the official business of the planet in a few seconds, Zhou Qing slowly stood up and left the planetary governor's palace.
He is now going to check the edges of the middle and lower nests.
He wanted to see what this so-called Four-Armed God Emperor really was.
How exactly does fanatical religious belief originate?
The most important question is why these guys would tamper with human souls, causing humans to give birth to a bunch of things that aren't human.
This is blasphemy; this is blasphemy against the entire human race.
Faced with such an existence, if it were during the Human Federation era, the entire thing would have been destroyed. Since it dares to tamper with human souls, it is tantamount to declaring war on the entire Federation.
The Federation is not afraid of any enemy, but Zhou Qing does not have the Federation now. He only has himself and the colony he just acquired.
So he needs to be careful and figure out what kind of person the other party is first.
To ensure his own safety, Zhou Qing took out 40 real combat security robots from his small backpack for the first time.
Unlike the previous civilian armed robots, whose combat capabilities were inferior to his own, he was different.
These 40 security robots have a combat capability several times greater than his; these are the robots that truly play a role in security work.
The planetary governor's hovercar quickly flew to the edge of Zhongchao and Xiachao. This area was extremely desolate, inhabited only by the cunning cultists.
Zhou Qing felt a very unpleasant feeling as soon as he arrived here.
It's like having someone constantly next to him shouting that he's hungry.
Zhou Qing frowned.
"Notify PDF to send a military unit to take over this place for me, and don't let a single person leave."
"The mechanical legion has mobilized 5 men; they are coming over now."
Zhou Qing, who possessed powerful spiritual energy, had already realized that something was wrong. This was definitely not a good god; it was definitely an evil god.
The people here have probably all been corrupted by this evil god. Although no other changes have occurred in the previous generations, their human nature will completely disappear starting from the fifth generation.
The entire community of humans has reached a very dangerous point.
Although the Federation possesses technological solutions capable of handling this situation, Zhou Qing currently lacks the necessary equipment, therefore he can only take the simplest step.
They sealed off the entire Chicken Cult community, preventing them from going out to continue preaching, and confined them here to prevent them from doing anything else, so as to avoid harming more people.
In addition, they deployed their mechanical legion and their own bodyguard-type combat robots to eliminate the aliens and exterminate all the heretics.
The Human Federation's attitude towards the aliens remains unchanged: simply kill them all.
Unless you meet human aesthetic standards, can make contributions to the human federation, and your soul can be classified as human, then forget about it.
They will be eliminated anyway.
Chapter 30: Before fighting against the outside world, one must first make peace with the inside
Zhou Qing's hovercar slowly landed on the abandoned plaza outside the Chicken Thief Cult community. Forty security robots immediately deployed into a defensive formation.
Their silver-gray armor gleamed coldly in the dim light.
Each joint of these combat machines contains an energy circuit far exceeding the technological level of the Warhammer world, enough to instantly vaporize an entire Space Marine company.
"Scanning begins," Zhou Qing commanded softly.
The security robot's eye sensors simultaneously emitted a faint blue light.
A three-dimensional holographic projection immediately unfolded in front of Zhou Qing, displaying a three-dimensional structural diagram of the entire community. Millions of red dots represented the contaminated humans, while hundreds of huge purple dots stood out conspicuously.
"Abnormal biological signal detected," the mechanical voice calmly reported.
The target exhibits characteristics of a Zerg hive consciousness; a large number of humans are being misled by strange signals, their visual senses are being severely distorted, and the Zerg army has already appeared on our planet.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing frowned.
Insects are powerful adversaries in any universe.
The Human Federation had encountered the Thorin worm in its original world.
They were incredibly powerful, and although they were ultimately defeated by the Human Federation, these insects were indeed formidable in combat.
After the Human Federation completed its ascension, I thought I would no longer encounter insects.
But in the end, they encountered even more insects, and they were still appointed by the Federation as Thorin protozoa.
However, their combat power is even stronger, and their overwhelming swarms of insects once engaged in a fierce battle with the Federation.
The Federation repelled the swarm, but the number of insects was too great, and even with the Federation's fighting strength, they could not be completely annihilated.
The two sides are still occasionally engaged in a tug-of-war along the northern border.
The Zerg swarm's fleet blotted out the sky, and the Cataclysm missiles could indeed affect the Human Federation's fleet.
Now Zhou Qing has encountered a bug himself, which has made him very uneasy. What if it's like the Thorin protozoan? How can he fight it?
Is he going to rely on his current civilian technology?
He doesn't have the powerful fleet of the Human Federation behind him, nor does he have the continuous supply of energy and resources like the Federation.
It will take only a few more days to unleash the industrial capacity to create a massive, overwhelming fleet.
"Confirm the size and species of the insect colony, and identify whether it is a Sorin protozoan."
The robot was given a command and began comparing gene sequences, eventually leading to their conclusion.
"No, we have completed the exploration of a portion of the gene sequence of Sorin, but we can confirm that they are not Sorin."
"Phew," Zhou Qing sighed heavily. It was good that it wasn't the Thorin Protozoa. He didn't want to face the swarm catastrophe right now, even if it was just a part of it.
"Kill!" Slaughter all those creatures whose genetic sequences and souls have been completely altered. Leave those whose spiritual power is blocked alive; I will personally deal with this problem for them.
As always, the Federation of Humans is ruthless towards aliens, but they remain full of warmth towards their own people.
Those people who were blocked did so not voluntarily; it was a helpless act on their part.
In such cases, the federal government is willing to give them a chance to atone for their sins and a chance to recognize their mistakes, rather than exterminating them completely.
Of course, this was on the premise that their genes had not been contaminated by the swarm. If their genes had been contaminated by the swarm, then Zhou Qing would have no choice but to kill them.
It wasn't that he wanted to kill these fellow humans and was unwilling to save them.
However, gene restoration requires a lot of resources, and Zhou Qing, who had no money, could only live a life of poverty.
As for those aliens that are no longer human, they must be eliminated.
Having already learned some of the knowledge about the human empire, Zhou Qing knew very well that these cunning cults would summon those insects, and he didn't want to fight the greenskins and the insects at the same time.
The mechanical army began its advance into the Chicken Cult's community.
The security robots that were originally standing around Zhou Qing to protect him also began to move out, preparing to eliminate all these aliens.
As for the PDF that Zhou Qing transferred, a defensive position was set up on the outermost perimeter to prevent anyone from resorting to desperate measures or running away, thus preventing such a situation from repeating itself.
The mechanical legion began to advance in an orderly manner, firing their Gauss rifles at maximum power, preparing to completely obliterate these heretics without leaving a trace.
Meanwhile, the security robots that were originally surrounding Zhou Qing quickly entered the community ahead of him.
At this time, the members of the Chicken Thief Cult in the community were still unaware of what had happened. They had originally planned to continue working in the factory today to earn the necessities for their families.
Things had noticeably improved during this period. The planetary governor, for some reason, suddenly started providing them with good food instead of the corpse starch they used to receive. Even marginalized figures like them were given food.
Several members of the notorious chicken-thief cult walked together and talked to each other.
After all, going out to find a job can be a bit boring, so when a few cunning people from the cult get together, they naturally start talking to each other.
"To be honest, the new planetary governor has actually seemed like a decent person lately."
He actually distributed food to us followers of the God-Emperor, and he doesn't seem to have any religious prejudices. Do you think we could try to persuade this planetary governor to join our sect?
"Are you crazy?" another cunning cultist looked around nervously and whispered, "The previous governor was ruthless in his pursuit of exterminating true believers like us."
