After Noah had finished all his demands, it was now Guilliman's turn to fall silent.
Blood tithe, what did Noah's words mean?
It meant that the Imperium of Man actually had to pay a blood tithe to Noah.
Although this might sound a bit extreme, theoretically, it wasn't far off.
Psionics had always been a power that the Imperium of Man was extremely wary of.
What did this power truly mean for the Imperium of Man? Guilliman had no way to explain it at this moment.
However, on the other hand, he had indeed witnessed the powerful combat strength of the Psionic Legion under Noah, and he also thought of the Grey Knights that had been established in the past.
These guys were also considered masters of psionics, and they had played a powerful role in the Imperium of Man.
Although they were not as powerful as the Psionic Legion under Noah, they were indeed formidable.
Guilliman looked directly at Noah; this time, he was not a little embarrassed as before, but rather very serious.
"Noah, can you guarantee to me that these Psykers are controllable and will not threaten the Imperium of Man or, rather, the safety of the human race?"
Guilliman knew that Noah might not be a member of the Imperium of Man, so he did not directly ask about the Imperium of Man, but changed it to the human race at the end.
Noah's high moral bottom line and noble conduct made Guilliman willing to trust Noah, but as a Primarch of the Imperium of Man, he still had to ask such a question.
However, in reality, when he asked this question, he had already made a decision: he was willing to provide Psykers to Noah.
"Naturally, you should know me a little; I would never harm my fellow human."
Noah's answer also confirmed this point; Noah's answer was trustworthy.
Guilliman didn't know why, but he had this feeling in his heart that the person in front of him was trustworthy.
"Good, in that case, I agree. I will provide you with Psykers; you can build your Psionic Legion to your heart's content."
"For the continuation of the human race, please be sure to use this power cautiously."
He was very serious in his heart, and his expression was very solemn, and under his influence, Noah also responded with a serious expression.
"Naturally so—"
The deal was struck: Guilliman would provide Psykers to Noah, and Noah would now begin to repair the Imperial warships.
The warships first all landed on a planet's surface, and then Noah took out 10,000 engineering robots from his small spatial pocket.
These engineering robots did not immediately begin repairing the warships; instead, after Noah took out more resources obtained from Ultramar, they began their journey of hand-crafting, producing more robots.
After the number reached 200,000 engineering robots, they began their work, using a large amount of resources and various resources collected on this planet as primary materials to begin building the Imperial warships.
The materials used were naturally not the stellaris alloys from stellaris.
All the resources used were those obtained from Ultramar, at most adding a small amount of alloy resources to build these warships.
Repairing these Imperial warships did not take too long; in just three days, the Imperial fleet was once again like new, and Noah even added an extra shield for them.
Since Guilliman was willing to agree to his request so readily, Noah naturally reciprocated by adding basic shields to the ordinary Imperial warships.
To be honest, even now, he couldn't understand why the Imperium of Man's shields were so peculiar. How did those warships collide with each other? Why did the shields not play any role when the warships collided?
To avoid seeing boarding actions, a tactic that had been eliminated for who knows how many years, reappearing later.
So Noah made his choice; he chose to add basic shields to these Imperial warships.
The Imperial warships now were different from before. If those Chaos Space Marines still wanted to use boarding tactics, then Noah could directly say to them, "No!"
It's impossible unless they can break through the basic shields.
Before the shield energy is depleted, it is absolutely impossible for the Chaos Space Marines' warships to complete boarding actions again; of course, the void shields will also remain.
But it must be said that Noah still expressed some emotion about the Terran Federation's void shield technology; this thing was indeed powerful.
Its principle was just as his warship AI had reported before, like a garbage disposal unit.
So, when facing physical attacks, such a shield was quite effective.
After completing the maintenance of the Imperial warships, Noah also incorporated the Imperium of Man's void shield into his technological reserves.
The newly repaired Imperial warships also set sail again; they took off from the battle planet and returned to orbit.
Every warship in the expeditionary fleet had undergone meticulous upkeep and maintenance, which resulted in the expeditionary fleet now looking even newer than when it first departed from Ultramar.
However, just as the warships set sail again and entered space, Noah discovered something new.
The Webway—
Webway technology was not unfamiliar to the Terran Federation. In the middle period of the Terran Federation, Webway technology had already begun to be applied within the federation.
It was not an ordinary stargate Webway, after all, the fallen empire's warships had technology from who knows where, allowing them to freely travel between various stargates.
After Trajan IV suffered its first attack, the Terran Federation discovered this problem.
Therefore, the federation's scientists researched another type of Webway technology.
So Noah was not unfamiliar with Webway technology; when the warship had just taken off, he discovered that there seemed to be a Webway gate on the adjacent planet that could enter the Webway.
More importantly, for some unknown reason, this Webway could directly lead to the moon, which would undoubtedly greatly shorten the travel time in the Warp.
After making this new discovery, Noah's eyes lit up. He did not order the fleet to depart again; instead, he once again found Guilliman and explained this new discovery to him.
From this point, one can see why Guilliman trusted Noah so easily.
Because this guy's moral standard was truly high; he could have made the decision directly, yet he was still willing to come and discuss it with Guilliman.
Of course, it was precisely because of Noah's every move that Guilliman felt Noah was trustworthy. Therefore, after Noah explained the Webway, he expressed without any hesitation:
"If you think that path is safe, then use that path. This is technology; I don't understand these technologies."
