The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

The subjects of the Imperium of Man are unquestioningly loyal and devout to their faith in the Emperor.

To a certain extent, among humans in the Warhammer world, belief in the Emperor is even so fanatical that it can make gods from other worlds envious to the point of crying.

After all, a planet can easily have hundreds of millions of devout believers multiplied by the millions of planets controlled by the human empire. Even one ten millionth of the total population of fanatical believers can make the gods of other worlds soar.

However, in the Warhammer world, due to the existence of subspace, such a huge power of faith cannot be effectively utilized.

Because of the unique connection between the creatures in this world's real universe and the subspace, most of the emotions and emotions they generate flow into the subspace.

Whether it is joy, anger, sorrow, laughter or sorrow, everything is absorbed by the subspace.

This gave birth to the Four Evil Gods of Chaos in the subspace, and also gave birth to countless subspace creatures, among which there are naturally many beings with divinity.

It's just that the existence of the Four Evil Gods of Chaos is too huge or dazzling, just like four huge vortices that absorb all the corresponding emotions flowing into the subspace from the real world. At the same time, they are also strangling other subspace entities to become equal to them. the possibility of grid existence.

Although judging from the situation in the subspace of the Warhammer world, it is really not easy to give birth to a new god.

However, the impact of tens of thousands of years of devout faith and the huge total number of believers in the trillions of people still brought the Emperor to the edge of becoming a god.

And once the emperor at this moment becomes a god, his status will not be lower than that of the Four Evil Gods of Chaos, and may even be stronger.

Because in a certain sense, the essence of the Emperor is actually somewhat similar to that of Slaanesh, because both are racial gods after becoming gods.

That is to say, gods are born when the creatures of a race have a common type of emotion.

It's just that Slaanesh was born from the void, while the Emperor has his own entity.

When Slaanesh was born, her first cry exploded a warp portal called the Eye of Terror in the real universe.

If the Emperor becomes the new god of the Warp, his unimaginable power will also explode an equally huge Warp Gate in the real universe.

Even because the Emperor's power is so great, the exploded subspace gate will be even greater than the Eye of Terror.

This is also the reason why the Emperor has been suppressing his instincts for ten thousand years, preventing himself from becoming a god.

Otherwise, he only needs to let himself die, and he can be reborn with his immortal nature. There is no need to drag his last breath of body and sit on the golden throne for ten thousand years, even with stasis. Protected by the force field, the body was as withered as a mummy.

Despite this, the Emperor paid a price and sacrifice unimaginable to ordinary people, but for ten thousand years the Imperium of Mankind's belief in the Emperor gradually transformed him into a god through the connection between the Warp and the Emperor.

This is why when the Primarch saw the Emperor again after ten thousand years, he felt that he was even less human than he was ten thousand years ago.

At this time, the Emperor has no humanity at all. He is not so much a human being as a god stuffed into a human skin.

When one day this skin can no longer imprison his soul, it will be time for the Emperor to become a true god of the warp.

If it is for other people to become gods or great beings at the level of the Four Evil Gods of Chaos, then there is no need to think or hesitate at all.

But for the Emperor, if becoming a god meant the destruction of humanity and the collapse of the human empire he had built, then he would rather never become a god.

Originally, all this was irreversible. After all, except for completely banning the imperial state religion and prohibiting the trillions of people of the human empire from believing in the emperor, there was no other way to prevent the emperor from becoming the new warp god.

It's just that this time can be stretched very long, and it can also be compressed very short.

And all this changed with the arrival of Chen Mo and the unfolding of a new plan between him and the emperor.

For Chen Mo, the process of the gods in the Warhammer world becoming gods is a bit outrageous, or to be precise, the gods in the Warhammer world are not complete gods in the strict sense.

They are just gods born based on the special laws of subspace in the Warhammer world. Even during the most powerful period of the ancient Eldar Empire, those Eldar gods have never been recorded entering the real universe. All gods live in Asia. In the divine realm within space.

All this did not change until the birth of Slaanesh, which led to the complete destruction of the Eldar Empire and the fall of the Eldar gods.

The Eldar war god Kane was beaten into a thousand pieces. The remaining Eldar can sacrifice a prophet to summon Kane's fragments into the real universe and transform into an incarnation of Kane to fight.

Although the combat power of Kane's incarnation is hard to describe, it is also difficult to say how many remnants of Kane, the former God of War, are still there, or that these fragments of Kane are just the corpses and fragments he left behind, but he can indeed appear briefly in the real universe. among.

It can be seen from this that the gods in the Warhammer world are actually special beings that can only exist in the sea of ​​souls in subspace. They have no physical existence in the real universe.

This not only gave Chen Mo a desire to research, but also allowed him to come up with a solution that could solve the problems the emperor was facing now.

That is to allow the Emperor to become a regular god with an entity in the physical universe in a more correct way, not just a great being in the warp.

This would also solve the problem of once the Emperor becomes a god, he will drain the souls of the entire human race and explode Holy Terra into a second Eye of Terror.

As for the correct way to become a god, naturally it is to build a statue of a god to collect faith.

After all, Chen Mo himself became a god in this way. The emperor of the human empire has such a broad belief base, so naturally it cannot be wasted.

Moreover, it is also a huge waste for such a huge power of faith to flow into the subspace in vain, although it can still make the Emperor become closer and closer to God.

When the statue on Holy Terra was built, the beliefs that should have flowed into the warp and directly affected the essence of the Emperor's soul were gathered into this statue.

On the one hand, this can reduce the waste of the power of faith, and on the other hand, it can also alleviate the impact on the emperor himself.

And as the statues of gods in the human empire continue to be established, a huge belief network will gradually be built. While efficiently collecting the beliefs of every world in the human empire, it can also allow the emperor's will to truly expand to the empire. Every corner.

"This is the task your heirs need to perform now. The emperor's situation can no longer be delayed. The construction of all the statues must be completed as soon as possible." Chen Mo looked at the one-armed giant in front of him and told him about his relationship with the emperor. The emperor’s specific plan: “At present, almost all the forces of the Human Empire are devoted to fighting the Tyranid swarm and the forces of Chaos, but there is no doubt that compared to the war, allowing the Emperor to become a god is the most important thing for the entire Human Empire at the moment. the most important thing."

The one-armed giant felt speechless for a while. He had just returned to the human empire. He originally thought that ten thousand years would be enough to eliminate all the trauma left over from the past, but he did not expect that the empire would become even worse than it was then.

But now, he cannot go to the battlefield to fight side by side with his brothers. Instead, he has to repair the statue of the emperor so that the emperor can successfully become a god.

This made Rogal Dorn, who had just been found and sent to Holy Terra, feel helpless and at the same time felt that this was a great irony.

"The reason Horus used to persuade other brothers to fall during the Great Rebellion was that the reason why my father wanted to end the Great Crusade was because he wanted to become a god." Rogal Dorn had a complicated expression. He used his only remaining arm to He grabbed the tattered cloak on his body and tore it off, revealing the incredibly strong body of the original gene: "I didn't expect that after ten thousand years, the empire would actually face this situation."

"The world is unpredictable. I think you should get to work quickly instead of lamenting here." Chen Mo looked at Roger Dorn who had only one hand left in front of him, touched his chin and then raised his all-powerful stick. The cane knocked on his broken arm, causing the Primarch of the Imperial Fist to grow his arm again. At the same time, he also said to him: "I asked people to bring you back to let you come back to work." Yes, so go meet your descendants, and then there is the largest statue waiting for you to build."

According to Chen Mo and the emperor's plan, in addition to each planet, each star region and each star field having statues of gods of different specifications, as the center of the entire empire, it will also be built by the future emperor. The center of the faith network, Holy Terra also needs a unique and huge statue to control the faith network of the entire human empire.

Of course, Chen Mo himself was not in the mood or interest to keep an eye on this kind of thing. After teaching the priests of the Imperial State Church how to build the statue, these fanatics would naturally make things perfect.

But this kind of work requires one person to preside over it, especially since it needs to be connected with the Imperial Fist and all aspects of the human empire. This kind of work undoubtedly requires a Primarch to be responsible for it.

But the other Primarchs were either at war or fighting, and there was no suitable person who could take the blame. Chen Mo could only use a little of his divine power to pull Rogal Dorn out of his long-term disappearance. come out.

Now, the Primarch of the Imperial Fists will once again serve as the Imperium of Man's greatest contractor.

It's just that last time he was building fortresses and high walls, but this time he was building statues of gods.

Rogal Dorn was actually dead in the early GW settings. The entire skeleton of Rogal Dorn was stored in the headquarters of the Imperial Fist. However, in the later versions of the story, Rogal Dorn Dorne went from dead to missing, his skeleton turned into two fists, and finally into one arm. What stands out is that GW is eating books like crazy for sales.
