Chapter 229: The Great Rift
Sivir smiled.
The Blackstone Fortress group around him was like a cage, firmly imprisoning the psionic incarnation in space.
Around those Blackstone Fortresses, countless Blackstone Obelisks floated in the void. Beams of flickering energy cut the connection between psionic avatars and the subspace.
Psionic and technological, the Empire went hand in hand on both fronts, never giving up any power that humans could grasp. And now, it is time to test the results of the empire.
Looking at the psionic incarnation that was bound in place, Sivir felt happy from the bottom of his heart.
Not only for the threat of psionic incarnation to be lifted at this time, but also for the strength of the human beings themselves.
At this time, the empire, even without the emperor and its own leadership, must be able to continue to develop in the crisis-ridden galaxy.
It is true that with the leadership of the two Chosen Emperors, Sivir and the Emperor, the speed of human development has been greatly accelerated, but the development of the Empire is by no means only the credit of Sivir and the Emperor.
The rise of humanity would not have been possible without the warriors who fought hard, the researchers who conducted research, the missionaries who spread the light of the emperor, the hard-working government officials, and other loyalists.
And when Sivir thought of this, a smile was on his face.
The dark gods laughed too.
At first, the laughter appeared in Siwell's ears, but soon, Sivir found that the laughter had shifted to the psionic incarnation in front of him.
His eyes were no longer angry and crazy, but with a playful mockery.
All this made Sivir dumbfounded, and he thought to himself, didn't the anti-subspace suppression field of the Black Stone Obelisk suppress the spiritual power a long time ago?
What Sivir doesn't know now is that the anti-subspace technology generated by these technologies that humans have stolen from the necrons in space is not so absolute.
This is not the reason why humans themselves have not studied this technology thoroughly, in fact, this technology of space necromancy itself is somewhat flawed. While they can often isolate the connection between living beings and the subspace, in fact, there are some deeper connections that they can't solve.
For example, the connection between the four gods of chaos and demons at this time.
When Sivir realized that the psionic avatar in front of him had been taken over by a dark being, he instantly launched an attack on it.
In the face of Sivir's attack, the psionic incarnation did not dodge or dodge, and he was bent on unleashing the power in his body.
He's going to blow himself up!
When Sivir realized this, he instantly built all of his psionic energy into a barrier that wrapped around the psionic incarnation.
Unfortunately, Sivir's psionic barrier lasted only a few seconds before it was filled with cracks and then shattered.
The walls of the immaterial world began to crumble, physical laws, order, and reality no longer applied, and the world began to be filled with shapes, sounds, and colors, all of which challenged the human species.
The dark gods laughed.
A catastrophic shockwave travels through the subspace. The resulting massive subspace storm engulfs the entire secondary star region in the energy storm of the subspace.
......
In the psionic beacons of the solar system, Sivir's will returned to his body.
But he was in a terrible state, and the self-detonation of the psionic avatar had not only destroyed everything in the entire galaxy. It also caused great damage to Sivel's spirit.
Sivir, who was originally sitting in front of the Golden Throne in the center of the Psionic Beacon, suddenly stood up in the eyes of the members of the Star Torch Court, the Star Language Court, and the State Church.
But Sivir didn't bring them good news, his mouth spat out bright red blood, and the whole person couldn't even stand, and one stumbled to the ground.
The people around him hurriedly went up to help, but found that Sivir had passed out and lost consciousness.
When people tried to contact the Imperial Worlds of those hazy star fields, they found that only a few Imperial Worlds had responded to them. Many more worlds have been disrupted from Terra, and people can't even contact the Imperial worlds wrapped in subspace storms.
And while Sivir was in his coma, unprecedented darkness was gathering, and a subspace omen was about to take shape across the hazy star fields, and the war against the gods of destruction had never been more dangerous.
As some worlds began to regain their empires one after another, people realized how bad the situation was in the hazy star field at this time.
From the messages of despair, it became clear that the fall of the Psionic Beacon was only the beginning.
Countless Dao subspace rifts spread on a scale never seen before, and nightmarish and terrifying visions eroded reality like erupting volcanic ash. Evil rays flickered among the stars, filth stalked through the veil, spitting fangs and abominable compound eyes watched reality.
The power and scope of this subspace storm was so great that the laws of physics began to waver, and the inconsistencies of time fluctuations, once confined to huge subspace storms such as the Eye of Fear, had now spread throughout the hazy star field.
Researchers from the empire have found that the incidence of subspace storms in the hazy star field is gradually increasing.
The news caused panic in many worlds beneath the hazy star field, with some religious fanatics declaring the emperor unhappy and sending subspace storms to cleanse them of evil.
Some pagan religions quickly formed, and they began to flog themselves in desperation for the Emperor's forgiveness, and demanded that their friends and neighbors be washed away from all their sins and injustices before the Emperor.
And these paganisms swelled to such an extent that the Church and the planetary government could not stop them, supported by a desperate populace who threw themselves into eschatology.
The chaotic energy emanating from the subspace has made these ordinary imperial populaces paranoid and fanatical, and under the cover of this widespread paranoid fanaticism and excessive religious beliefs, the real cults have taken advantage of the situation to seize power.
And openly proclaim to those misguided followers: "When the Emperor abandons us, Chaos will save humanity!" ”。
This rhetoric is widely disseminated in some of the worlds. However, everyone only agreed with them that the emperor had abandoned them.
After all, the psionic beacons in several other star fields were all successfully lit, but something went wrong in the hazy star field. There are not a few believers who believe that the emperor has abandoned them.
However, most of what they longed for was to atone for their sins to the emperor and get the emperor's forgiveness, and there were not many people who really turned their heads to believe in chaos.
But this situation has changed over time, and the force of chaos has caused the number of people who believe in chaos to increase.
However, although Sivir is now in a coma, he doesn't know when he will wake up. But the Empire did not mess with itself.
Despite the dangers and bad omens, the people of the empire did not give up hope. Because in the face of the catastrophe, the emperor was with his people, and the emperor's psionic incarnation, located in the various psionic beacons, temporarily led the entire empire.
Under a series of orders from the emperor, the entire empire continued to function as it had been when Sivir was still alive.
When a part of the imperial world in the Hazy Star Domain fell into anarchy, religious conflicts, and chaos, under the mobilization of the Emperor, the Imperial Navy, the Space Marines and countless astral armies in the Hazy Star Field had already begun to pacify the various worlds.
And at the same time, an expeditionary fleet from the solar star field had already arrived.
They are a new army that has long been recruited to defend against the invasion of the Devourer, and their majesty is sure to shake the universe.
And they are only the first vanguard force, and there will be countless Imperial soldiers who will join the battle to defend the Empire.
In accordance with Sivir's orders, the most powerful weapons than ever seen are about to appear in the Empire's arsenals, and even the darlings of the dark gods will not be able to resist the wrath of these gods.
A new Armada will be formed, the mighty engine of war will be used to honor the Emperor's name, the frenzy of mass production will be unstoppable, and every servant of the Emperor will do his part.
An all-out war across the galaxy has begun, and no world is immune to the increasingly rampant subspace storm.
However, this unprecedented war will not bring about the end of the Empire, on the contrary, humanity will eventually rise to the top of the blood tide, announcing the complete defeat of the dark Ones.
...
...
At this time, in every corner of the Empire's hazy star field, patches of star regions were being invaded by darkness; Taking advantage of this storm, the aliens are invading the empire's borders.
Billions of cultists and villains have raised their banners against each other, and in the face of the raging flames of war that has burned across the galaxy, few worlds have survived.
However, although the Sun Star Domain Expeditionary Force that rushed to the Hazy Star Domain was formed to guard against invasions beyond the galaxy, they have strong military strength and are also capable of cleaning up the forces of chaos.
In response to this new catastrophe, their goal has temporarily become the liberation of the Imperial worlds that are besieged by the forces of Chaos.
But just as they cleaned up the chaotic forces besieging the Empire's world, the Empire discovered that the subspace storms that had sprung up in the hazy star fields had connected the Eye of Dread to the new giant subspace rift formed by the explosion of the psionic avatar.
They gradually formed a great rift across the hazy star field!
It is a new, catastrophic chain of subspatial rifts that divides most of the hazy star field.
For the Human Empire, the Great Rift is a cursed scar, and to the people of the Sun Domain, the Great Rift is a scar that is polluted across the sky. But for those unfortunate in the northern part of the Misty Field, the situation is even worse in the area known as the dark side of the Misty Field.
Since the birth of the Great Rift, some worlds have felt like centuries have passed in just a moment, while others have been virtually frozen in time, and still others have undergone constant time shifts.
Within the Great Rift, the Chaos Gods have begun to expand the reach of their great game, vying each other for supremacy in the proverbial Rift Wars.
Although this expeditionary force of the Sun Star Domain easily cleared the Chaos forces close to the Terra part of the Hazy Star Field, the Great Rift prevented them from continuing to advance.
This large rift, which spans the entire hazy star field, makes it dangerous for the Empire to sail across its hyperspace, based on its impact on reality.
If the Empire's expeditionary force wants to reach the other side of the Hazy Star Field, it must first move to the Extreme Star Domain or the Taiping Star Field. Orbit through these two fields to the back of the hazy star field.
While this would be a waste of time, there was nothing better for the Empire. The expeditionary fleet was too large for even the Emperor to use the Psionic Torch to make it across the Great Rift.
But can those entrenched Imperial worlds really wait for the Empire's support? Looking through the Sentinel Array of the Empire, the tentacles of the Zerg have reached into the galaxy.
The expeditionary force sent by the Empire was not limited to the Hazy Star Domain, but sent expeditionary fleets to all four star fields surrounding the Sun Star Field.
Because, according to the subspace shadows felt by the Emperor and Sivir, they come from all directions beyond the galaxy.
In Sivel's vision, the four outer star fields will serve as the main battlefields, and the solar star field will be firmly protected in the middle.
The Imperial Worlds in those Sun Domains will go all out to produce weapons and equipment, and conduct conscription training to provide a steady stream of troops and materials for the battlefields of the remaining four Star Domains.
At this time, except for the Hazy Star Domain Expeditionary Force that was still on the way, the remaining three expeditionary fleets had already arrived at the battle site.
And there, on the frontiers of the Empire, they saw countless hive fleets coming at them, just as the Empire had expected.
Before these hive fleets approached the Imperial world, the Empire had already figured out the movements of these hive fleets by constantly observing the sentinel arrays at the edge of the galaxy.
But any Imperial personnel who know the size of the hive fleet through the Sentinel Array, even if they have strong faith in the Emperor and Sivir, and the brave and fearless Imperial warriors.
The faith in their hearts that humanity will prevail is still shaken.
......
Before these extragalactic invaders officially invaded the galaxy, the Empire had contact with them. In a galaxy called Tyranny, an Imperial fleet of orcs has encountered a hive fleet of thousands of biological warships.
And with the same amount, the Empire's fleet commander, at some small cost, eliminated these abominable aliens, and then submitted the matter to the table.
But the Empire has encountered countless aliens in the galaxy, and a fleet of creatures alone is not worth their attention for the Empire.
The Empire's officials named the creature the Tyranid and put the event into the Empire's vast database.
Thereafter. From time to time, news of Zerg invasions of the Imperial world reaches Terra. But the Empire's support fleet is usually quick to clear the threat of these bugs.
While their combat abilities on the ground are remarkable, the Empire's fleets are often able to wipe out their forces in space.
As a result, the Empire never regarded them as the Empire's great enemies.
But upon realizing the number of these Zerg invading the galaxy, there was not a single human who did not worry about the future of the Empire.
