Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

"I will fight a war that will wipe out a species from the galaxy."

"It's like we drove away the ancient saints and killed them all."

Imotek pointed his finger toward the entire territory of the human species.

Just when it was about to continue to preach its great strategy, the overlord of the Cologne Dynasty sneered: "The war you are about to wage has no glory to speak of, because we can achieve superiority in military information based on technological differences alone. Human beings are unilaterally transparent to us, and you are nothing but a giant stretching out its feet to the ants.”

"Watch your words." Imotek turned to look at the overlord who dared to challenge him. The heavy gravity instantly pressed the Column overlord to the floor and could not move. "I did not use advanced information collection technology, even if The use of technology allows me to know how many body hairs the opposing commander has, but I hate war without games.”

"The information I gathered was obtained through traditional and fair means."

"Every message you see is!"

People from various dynasties who had been quiet before suddenly began to communicate with each other, and they all wondered what fair and traditional method Imotek had used to collect such detailed information.

Some people believe that the human empire is too large and clumsy, and they cannot even fill the technological generation gap, let alone collect and counter-collect information with Imotek, who has fought against the ancient saints.

Some people believe that Imotek still used advanced information collection technology, and perhaps the most powerful astrologer Orikan helped it.

Some people think that Imotek is just farting, and everything it shows is false.

Only the Silent King Szarak and several French emperors who are good at strategy believe that what Imotek showed is true, not only the results of human information collection, but also the weaknesses of this arrogant military commander.

Imotek is arrogant and proud on a personal level, but calm and composed when directing war.

When these two qualities come together, it becomes a military commander who appears careless.

"You undoubtedly have meritorious service at the level of a hero in the war that wiped out the Ancient Saints." Someone questioned, "But now we are just like the Ancient Saints back then. The Human Empire is not the biggest enemy to be dealt with in this war. Despicable The Star Gods have chosen a new race of animals, how do you deal with the human force named Tai Lung?"

"Human beings have the same ability to reproduce as cancer cells. When their numerical advantage is combined with material advantage, they can be considered a real opponent." Imotek calmly responded to the question, "And I will make them divided and hostile. "

As soon as the words fell, there was silence in the Three Saints Council Hall, followed by mechanical laughter simulated by the sound-producing device.

"Split them?"

"Together, they have just taken on the responsibility that should have been borne by our species, which is to seal the Eye of Terror."

"Both the leaders of these two human forces are good at mediation and cooperation. The cooperation between them is close. How do you use to make them divided and hostile?"

"..."

Doubts came one after another from behind Szalak.

The green light that shines when Imotek speaks lights up, but no sound comes from its sound-producing device.

After two seconds of silence, the Storm King responded to all questions coldly: "You are not qualified to ask me questions. You only need to know what you should know, and then hand over your army to me. I will be like in the Battle of Heaven." Facing the ancient sages, leading the army to win one victory after another amid the doubts of you insects."

After speaking, Imotek did not salute according to the procedure, nor did he thank Szarak for his selection, nor did he express polite thanks to the justices. He just turned around and left with his followers.

…

After leaving the home of the hated Council of the Holy Trinity, Imotek met with the senior officials of the Sotec dynasty on his tomb ship.

Infighting is a flaw that cannot be abandoned by any intelligent species, even the mechanical creatures playing the role of Necrontyr are no exception.

There were conflicts among the various dynasties, and the same was true within the Sotec dynasty.

When the Storm King convened the dynasty's top brass, the meeting was in some ways identical to the one just moments before.

Imotek sat on the highest throne, and the overlords who had reached an agreement with each other and had the same goal stood together in groups of three or five, and then maintained opposite positions to another group of overlords.

There is only one person who does not have a "group", and that is Zahedek, the crowned general of the Sotec Dynasty standing in the corner.

It's not that the old general is so loyal and hates infighting, it's just that it has reached the point where no one wants to pay attention to it.

Necrons, these robots who play the role of descendants of the Necrontyr, generally maintain the habits of the Necrontyr period. For example, they can obviously communicate with instantaneous signals, but they still use sound-generating devices to simulate speaking. Some people think this is crazy.

And Zahedek is the craziest.

It fights with humans, and after victory it does not kill the enemy. Instead, it follows the ancient war etiquette of the Necrontyr to treat the enemy politely, and then raises the enemy.

As a heavyweight military figure of the Sotec dynasty, Imotek still hopes that Zahedek will continue to be crazy so that it will not pose a threat.

Before discussing war matters, Imotek had to take care of a small matter.

As it sent a signal to its guards, the guards immediately brought a human to the Storm King.

It was a weak human, but with a strong body, wearing a black power armor full of gaps.

If the Space Marines of the Black Templars were present, they would not hesitate to rush up and exchange their lives for the survival of this human, because the one brought to Imotek was the Grand Marshal of the Black Templars, Hyperion.

When the Black Templars faced the Sotek Dynasty, Imotek once designed to kill almost all the centurion-level commanders of the Black Templars. There was also a trophy in that battle, which was Hyperion in front of him.

"Prepare a ship for it." Imotek ordered his servants.

His order was not questioned at all, even if he wanted to let this super warrior among humans go.

After giving the order, the Storm King stood up from the throne and walked in front of Hyperion.

This once powerful warrior was tortured by the beetles that sucked nutrients and blood and became extremely weak.

"I grant you, a respectable warrior, a second life and a second chance to face me."

Imotek grabbed Hyperion's head with one hand and lifted up the body of this sturdy Space Marine.

Then Hyperion's right hand was grabbed by Imotek's other hand and torn off.

"Go back and prepare well, hone your martial arts, and then challenge me again."

"By the way, help me convey a message to the leader of your race, that is, you are about to become extinct."
