The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

When a soldier of the Human Empire dies in battle, if his faith in the Emperor is strong enough, or if the Ministry of Military Affairs collects the body after the war and arranges for a mass for the consecration of the state priest, there is still a high possibility that his soul will be saved. The Emperor's favor literally means that the soul returns to the Golden Throne.

Of course, the soul returning to the Golden Throne was probably just a good wish or saying in the past, and it could not really allow the soul to return across the entire galaxy to the most cruel torture instrument in the galaxy on Holy Terra.

But when the faith of the state religion spread throughout the entire human empire, and the trillions of people in the entire human empire began to believe that their souls would return to the Golden Throne after death, faith began to rewrite reality.

If it were in other worlds, this kind of "belief" that cannot be called faith would hardly have any effect. Although if this belief is directed to a specific existence, there is a high probability that a powerful god can be born, but Or maybe nothing will happen.

However, the Warhammer world is different. The close connection between the material universe and the subspace allows the souls of the creatures in the material universe of this world to be mapped in the subspace.

Even anti-psykers, also known as soulless ones, who are naturally able to reject the connection between the Warp and the physical universe, are still essentially connected to the Warp.

So just as the Eldar's indulgence would lead to the birth of the evil god Slaanesh in the subspace, the faith of the trillions of human beings in the Emperor and the belief that their souls would return to the Golden Throne made all this become a reality.

After the loyal Imperial subjects of the Human Empire have fulfilled their obligations and responsibilities, their souls will flow to the Golden Throne and gain true rest under the protection of the Emperor.

Although some of them will be entrusted with other important tasks by the Emperor, not many people can actually sleep under the Golden Throne. The matter of soul returning to the Golden Throne is not just a blessing or a slogan, but a real exist.

This is of course a good thing for the people of the Human Empire who believe in the Emperor. After all, the Warhammer world is known to be a cesspool. If there is no protection after death, the soul will enter the subspace. If you are lucky, you can indeed sink into the sea of ​​souls and return to this world. The origin of the soul, but if you are unlucky...

The Gardens of Nurgle, the Labyrinth of Tzeentch, the Boudoir of Slaanesh or the Arena of Khorne, you have to choose one.

Although the greater possibility is that he was directly swallowed by a passing subspace creature, what is even worse is that the subspace demon uses it as a coordinate to open the door, and his entire body literally becomes a subspace door from his soul to his body.

Therefore, being able to return to the Golden Throne is the best destination for the people of the Human Empire.

But not so with the Emperor.

As the most powerful psyker ever created by mankind, there is no doubting the Emperor's power.

Although the Emperor is now only a mummy sitting on a golden throne, his power can still protect the entire human empire.

Even as the Emperor's psychic powers grew stronger, his interference in the real world became stronger and stronger.

From the beginning, he could only give out some guidance sporadically, but now he can send living saints and even cursed legions into the real world. The emperor's power is gradually rising from a mortal to a god.

But this is not a good thing, at least not for the Emperor.

The huge faith indeed made the Emperor more and more powerful, but it also made him further nailed to the Golden Throne.

The growing power of faith is also consuming the last vestiges of humanity in the Emperor, leaving him just one step away from becoming a god.

If the Emperor becomes a god, the consequences are foreseeable. Whether it is the explosion of Holy Terra into the second Eye of Terror, or his devouring human souls during the process of ascension, these are unacceptable to today's human empire. .

That's why the Emperor hung on to his last breath, maintaining his remaining humanity and allowing himself to remain a human being, not a god.

This is also the reason why the Emperor launched the God-Destroying Movement during the Great Crusade and always wanted to promote the Imperial truth and deny the existence of all gods.

Because the Emperor clearly knows that once humans have faith, with the number of humans, their gathered beliefs will easily set off waves in the subspace and create new evil gods.

But the Emperor failed, and his efforts were in vain.

This was not only a conspiracy by the Four Evil Gods of Chaos, but also because this plan was doomed to fail from the moment the Emperor stood up to become the Emperor of the Empire of Man and led the Great Crusade to reunify humanity.

Although destroying the worship and belief in the gods, the implementation of Imperial Truth can indeed free the Imperium from the influence of the Warp Daemons. As long as the Emperor's plan succeeds, mankind will solve the problem of the Warp once and for all.

But the Emperor's overly great existence and achievements have given him too many admirers and believers in the Empire.

The reason why Luojia built the Perfect City, wrote the sacred scriptures of the state religion, and cultivated the Word Bearers into a group of religious lunatics, in addition to the impact of his own experience, was also related to the fact that everything the emperor did was too much like a god. .

After all, when you face an emperor who unified the galaxy to save mankind, established a huge empire, and constantly launched expeditions to expand territory and forge ahead, you will instinctively worship such a great person.

And these beliefs also have an impact in the subspace.

Why did the Primarchs all become Daemon Princes after becoming demons? Or is he the best among the demon princes, almost all of them are top-notch beings?

This is not because of the murders they committed during the Great Rebellion, or because their atrocities that almost destroyed the entire empire pleased the Four Evil Gods. Although there are such reasons, it is essentially because the Primarchs were under the influence of their respective legions and The worship of the people of the Empire sublimates their subspace essence.

As long as the Primarchs freed their own warp essence, they would be able to gain powerful psychic powers. This was something the Primarchs had already understood during the Heresy.

When they ascended into demons, the power of chaos from subspace further sublimated this essence, making them more inclined to subspace and chaos, and at the same time, it also greatly enhanced these primarchs.

Of course, even after Luo Jia ascended to the demon level and couldn't defeat the Lord of Crows, he would just keep blocking the door.

The Primarch could be affected by such a great influence, so it is natural to imagine that the Emperor has been worshiped by the entire empire for ten thousand years.

When Chen Mo and Chagatai Khan arrived at Holy Terra and landed on the square in the palace, Chen Mo had already clearly felt the terrifying and astonishing presence in the palace.

Without the help of the imperial army, Chen Mo had already passed through the complicated passages inside the palace area and arrived in front of the Golden Throne by virtue of his sense of the emperor.

The Emperor on the throne was a mummy with a broken spine, a broken arm, and a blind eye.

Although when the Emperor was still walking in the world, his powerful psychic powers could make anyone look at him the way they most understood and wanted to see, but now this mummy-like body is indeed the Emperor. The true appearance of the real body.

After being severely wounded by Horus, the Emperor's body had shriveled and dried out into what it is today after ten thousand years.

Even though the stasis force field shrouded stopped time around the Golden Throne Curse, allowing the Emperor to be forever frozen at the moment he sat on the Golden Throne, his body was indeed shriveled into what it is now due to various reasons.

"Father!" Jaghatai Khan stared at the mummy on the golden throne, and the expression on his face became complicated.

"Jaghatai Khan", "Lord of the White Scars", "Eagle of Chogoris", the emperor called out the name of Jaghatai Khan, but to Jaghatai Khan's ears, it was as if there was something happening all of a sudden. Countless people were talking to him.

If it weren't for the power of being a Primarch that allowed him to withstand the crazy pressure of this demonic sound penetrating his brain, I'm afraid Jaghatai Khan's head would have exploded.

But even so, it was difficult for him to look directly at the Emperor and listen to his voice for a long time.

Compared with Chagatai Khan, Chen Mo saw more.

He could see that in the Warp, the Emperor's soul had transformed into an icy sun, exactly as he had seen it before.

It's just that compared to the fear and confusion he felt when he saw the emperor, Chen Mo is now able to have an equal conversation with the emperor on an equal footing.

"Greetings from Jiu Shu, the Emperor of the Human Empire." Chen Mo projected his consciousness into the subspace and talked with the Emperor here.

After all, he doesn't really like talking to the mummy on the Golden Throne. In one sentence, it seems like a hundred people are saying the same thing to you in different languages ​​at the same time.

Although Chen Mo, as a god, can listen and understand the information that needs to be conveyed in this way of communication, this is really not a pleasant way of communication.

"I didn't expect that a visitor from another world back then has now become a new god." The human emperor also appeared here. He still maintained his most common appearance, wearing a golden armor and long black hair. It looks unusually tall, majestic and dazzling.

Regarding the emperor's comments, Chen Mo just smiled and said nothing. His situation was indeed beyond imagination.

There was not much exchange or greeting between the two. The emperor went straight to the topic: "Why did you come to Holy Terra?"

"I'm here for you, and I'm here for the empire of mankind." Chen Mo looked at the emperor and asked, "How much time do you have?"

Facing Chen Mo's question, the emperor fell silent.

If someone else asked this question, the emperor would naturally not answer, but facing Chen Mo, a foreign god, the emperor didn't know how to answer.

Seeing the emperor's silence, Chen Mo already had the answer in his heart.

"It seems that I came at the right time." Chen Mo nodded affirmatively, and then asked the emperor: "If I help you become a god and eliminate the impact of your becoming a god on the human empire, how sure are you that you can overcome the problem? Cross that threshold?”

Before arriving at Holy Terra, Chen Mo had already judged that the Emperor had developed enough divinity to forcibly turn him into a god under the 10,000-year worship of the Human Empire, coupled with the river of souls he saw on the way here. , Chen Mo judged the fact that the emperor didn't have much time anymore.

After arriving at the Golden Throne and meeting the Emperor himself in the subspace, all these speculations were verified. Even the time left by the Emperor was less than Chen Mo expected.

It is conceivable that if Chen Mo had not entered this world last time and helped the Emperor to return the Loyalist Primarchs, I am afraid things would have turned out like the original plot of Warhammer World.

Abaddon used thirteen Dark Crusades to pull out the nail in the Gate of Cadia, allowing the rift in the warp to expand to the entire galaxy, splitting the entire human empire in two.

The brilliance of the Star Torch was also extinguished under the influence of Chaos, and the Emperor's statues throughout the Human Empire shed tears of blood. It was not until Robert Guilliman returned to Holy Terra and launched the Indomitable Crusade that the human Empire, which was about to collapse, was destroyed. saved from the abyss.

But the human empire at that time was almost hopeless. Even if Robert Guilliman was a genius and a super ruler who could achieve perfection in politics, military and diplomacy, he could not turn over what he had lost. When the Gate of Cadia was broken and the entire galaxy was split in half by the Great Rift in Warp Space, the only way to save this country on the verge of being broken was to maintain this huge empire from perishing in his hands. It can just keep running.

It can be said that in that case, unless the Emperor himself stood up from the Golden Throne, no one could save the human empire that was about to be destroyed.

In fact, even now, the situation is not much better.

Although Chen Mo's intervention brought all the Primarchs of this world back, don't forget that in addition to the Human Empire, the Chaos Evil God in subspace also has Primarchs under his command.

And it is regrettable that those fallen Primarchs have all become immortal after being upgraded to Daemon Princes, and their combat effectiveness has also been greatly improved. It is difficult for the Loyalist Primarchs to fight with them. Gain the upper hand in combat.

The Gate of Cadia is guarded by the Crow King, and Abaddon cannot defeat it, but Chen Mo does not think that a single Crow Guard can block the Eye of Terror and prevent the Great Rift from opening.

After all, there is only one Crow King. Even if he is called a brother to support him, at a time when the Primarch and most of the Empire's forces are supporting the Ultramarine to resist the invasion of Tyranid swarms, if three or more of the fallen Primarchs in the warp gather to attack Kadi Ah, no matter how strong the Lord of Crows is, he cannot be stopped.

So for now, there is only one way to solve the problem, and that is to awaken the emperor and let him take charge of the empire again, and then with the help of the three gods Chen Mo and Chen Yu, he can rewrite the laws of this world and completely Strip away the influence of subspace on the real universe.

To realize this plan, a very important prerequisite is for the Emperor to stand up from the Golden Throne, and this is only possible if he truly becomes a god.
