Chapter 203: Corruption
Become a genoplasm?
Lu Mingfei's expression became confused again.
The original body is the heir of the Great Emperor and the genetic father of the Astarte Warband, and in the minds of most Astartes, it is a divine existence only under the Emperor.
But unfortunately, after the emperor sat on the golden throne, the few remaining genetic protogens of the empire also disappeared one after another in the following hundred years. Lu Mingfei only knows the original body of the Ultramarine. Killiman sleeps on his home planet, Maculag, and the remains of the deceased Saint and his body, now stored in the home planet of the Holy Blood Angels, are under absolute protection, and the weepers who have been roaming the borders of the empire have no chance or right to visit them.
If someone else asks Lu Ming if he wants to become a genetic agent, he will think that it is a bewitchment from Chaos, and kill them on the spot to prove his loyalty to the Emperor and Holy Lees.
But now he is asked by the Lord of the Race, who has been fighting for his will and ideals with his brothers in the warband.
After the end of the War in the Night Eclipse Plain, Lu Mingfei always thought that the soul fragments that Saint Leno sent to him in the Blood Holy Grail would be the soul fragments of the original Saint Lies, but he never thought that the pieces of will sent would actually be from the emperor himself, and even when the emperor appeared later, he always thought that the other party was Saint Leos and always called him "father".
After being silent for a long time, Lu Mingfei slowly raised his head and took a deep breath: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Emperor...... I...... I don't think I'm qualified to be that kind of great being. I am only a son of Holiness who fights for you and humanity. β
After hearing Lu Mingfei's answer, the blazing light in the boy's eyes slowly extinguished and became calm as water, but the corners of his slightly pensive face and mouth were slightly hooked.
Smiling, he didn't even show such a demeanor in the time before he sat on the throne.
"I have always considered superfluous emotions to be the source of depravity, so much so that absolute reason became my instinct, and I baptized it in them when I created the Praetorian Army; But who would have thought that after 10,000 years on the throne, what has not been swallowed up by divinity to this day is humanity and feelings that have been rejected by me. β
Lu Mingfei held his breath and listened intently to the Emperor's words, he was perhaps the only human in the past 10,000 years who had had the privilege of being so close to the Emperor's will.
"I'm glad to be in such a beautiful cradle, Katos, and it reminds me of what Terra used to be," said the boy, "and the shadow of the High Heavens does not exist here, and the abundance of human emotions will not be the nourishment of the Chaos gods." β
"I'm going to ask you a second question now, Lu Mingfei," the boy called him as if he was intent on treating him as two different personalities, while not continuing the topic of genetic protogenes, "Are you still willing to go to that dark universe to fight for humanity?" β
"Yes, Your Majesty. This is my mission as a son of Holy Levets," Lu Mingfei replied almost without hesitation, "The brothers of the Weepers are still waiting for me. β
The homeland is beautiful and peaceful, but there are many more humans in that world that need to be saved by the Astartes.
"Very well, Lu Mingfei, I'm sure Robert will like you," the boy nodded calmly, not feeling more emotional because of his answer, "We'll go back, but not now." β
With a flick of his palm, one humanoid specimen after another floated around, neatly surrounding them.
Lu Mingfei took a quick glance, most of them were Deadpool Xenomorphs who had been killed by him, from the followers of the pseudo-god Odin to the evil creations of the heretical generals, and even the mutant Deadpool who had been polluted by chaos not long ago.
There are also a few familiar figures: Chu Zihang, Chu Tianjiao, Yuan Zhinu, and Alchemy Sergeant Lao Tang...... Even Lu Mingfei himself was in it.
"Do you know how my Praetorian guards chose candidates who were determined to confront the living directly after I took the throne?" The boy asked.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty...... What you say is absolutely confidential, and I am not qualified to know about it. β
Lu Mingfei bowed his head.
"The inanimate" refers to the substance of subspace evil, and he is generally referred to by the more straightforward term "demon"; The term "Praetorian Guard" undoubtedly refers to the powerful Praetorian Guards who have accompanied the Emperor since the time of the Great Expedition, and are rumored to be extremely powerful, even if Astarte is a huge gap to them.
"The dungeon under the palace imprisons four living beings in the High Heavens: the 'Eight Skulls', the 'Sevenfold Miasma', the 'Six Wish-Granters', and the 'Drillers of the Soul'."
"As a test, candidates need to defeat the 'Eight Skulls' without weapons and power armor, breathe the miasma of the 'Sevenfold Miasma' for three hours without the aid of technology, listen to the verbal temptation of the 'Six Wish Granters' for sixteen hours and leave calmly, and gaze at the nine eyes of the 'Driller of the Soul' for twenty-four hours without blinking."
ββ¦β¦β
When Lu Mingfei heard this, he felt a deeper awe in his heart for the "Emperor's Claws" stationed in the Terra Palace, and the warriors who could survive these trials and not fall could indeed directly confront the subspace demons.
"But you can now avoid these tests of will," the boy waved his hand, and the sleeping specimen of "Chu Tianjiao" floated with his eyes closed, "After observation, the hybrid human genes of the combination of humans and dragons have undergone miraculous changes, and they have the trait of being almost completely immune to psionic corruption. That's why I call you 'alternative untouchables.'" β
"Even if the gods of Chaos try to drag you into their command, they will fail because your body cannot resonate, and you will be killed, but you will not be corrupted by psionic energy."

The boy's eyes rekindled with a stellar glow.
"Yes...... Is it immune? Lu Mingfei tried to understand the emperor's words, and some words were hesitant to say or not, "But...... My brother Chu Zihang and I have both received your spiritual blessings, and I am similar. β
"That is the power of faith, my loyal warrior," the boy sighed softly, "I destroyed the last church in Terra with my own hands 10,000 years ago, and now there are tens of billions of churches built for me, and the power of faith of countless people is gathered on the living corpse trapped in the throne. β
A withered, somewhat charred humanoid specimen flew in.
"The ratio between the power of faith and the half-blood body still needs to be tested, otherwise it will be burned and disintegrated by the power of faith like this," the boy said, "The good news is that the kid you recruited is very good, and there will be no damage or depletion from the experiment." β
Lu Mingfei didn't speak, staring at the humanoid specimen in a dazeβhis own face on the withered, charred body.
Of course, he knew that this was not his real self, but should be an afterimage of a certain state of his own state in the dream of "Summer Mourning".
He seemed to recall the scene when the surging divine golden light poured out of his body and engulfed him, and the intense pain of being burned by the flames rose from the depths of his soul.
And the Lord of Humanity has been scorched by this power for nearly 10,000 years.
"Don't be distracted by inconsequential things, Lu Mingfei," the boy's gaze seemed to be able to pierce the depths of Lu Mingfei's soul, and he was a little absent-minded, "When my new genetic engineering research has further breakthroughs, you have to beware of the impact of the 'Weaver of Destiny' on the present world." β
"Although the crow is not from the main body, the Lord of All Kinds is the most cunning and changeable Chaos God, and she is pleased with any change in the state of affairs."
"I can't interfere too much in this world, or the gods of the High Heaven will be attracted to me."
"I understand, I will be loyal to the death and will not live up to my mission, Your Majesty."
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, and his eyes became extremely resolute.
"In addition, there is still a way for half-blood humans to be corrupted," the boy waved his hand, and several corpses of Deadpool flew in, "If the dragon genes in the half-blood humans exceed a certain percentage, they will become unstable, and their resistance to chaos corruption will be greatly reduced, and when they are completely degraded into Deadpool, the power of chaos can easily corrupt them." β
Lu Mingfei was stunned, this was the reason why the heretic 'Groya' was a half-blood, but his body was still corrupted and mutated after following the Demon Lord of All Changes.
But when he thought about it, he sensed that something was wrong. If the dragon gene exceeds a certain percentage......
"Yes, dragon xenomorphs don't have any psionic corruption resistance."
The boy said indifferently, "You need to find the alien connected to that crow as soon as possible, and then destroy it." β
