No one knows exactly what the Lord of Steel experienced inside the Eye of Fear except for Perturabo himself, but when he reappeared in the limelight, he became ...... More arrogant and more calm, the steel was no longer regular, and was melted into other shapes.

After reporting to the Empire that he was still active in the Hazy Star Field, the Iron Warriors began to rely on the Eye of Dread to develop, and one infrastructure after another was built, and the Iron Warriors were sweeping the planets near the Eye of Dread at a greedy speed.

It's not just about developing the legion, there's another thing Peturabo is doing, he needs to make things messy, his ambitions have grown, Peturabo doesn't want to bow down anymore, he's already tasted real power, he's not going to kneel anymore.

The Iron Lord carefully forged a brief alliance with the creatures of the subspace, each taking what he wanted, hoping for the death of a soulless and Perturabo for a turbulent empire.

Near the Eye of Fear, the Blackstone Obelisks on countless planets are marked on the map, and these alien technologies ...... Reminds Perturabo of an unpleasant battle in the past, and now, these blackstone obelisks, their state is [Suppression].

[Inhibition], these tall, silent towers were suppressing the subspace overflow of the Eye of Fear, and when Perturabo walked into them, the Iron Lord could clearly feel the powerlessness and the soul imprisoned.

All he had to do was flip their state around.

Flip it over and become [Amplification].

Above the wild land, one giant tower after another with a faint green arc of lightning burst into lightning after a violent hum, and the curtain swayed, and the subspace storm that had been imprisoned in the eye of fear for thousands of years began to wreak havoc.

The Empire's subspace communications began to be unstable, countless otherwise stable shipping lanes began to close indefinitely, the Starwhisperers wailed bloody tears, and the navigators trembled and tried to retrieve their coordinates.

This will be the prelude to a subspace storm that will tear the entire empire apart, but unfortunately everyone now is not aware of all this, they just think that this is a normal subspace fluctuation.

Tear this empire apart.

Perturabo thought that it would cause countless deaths and that peace would be shattered again into war, but he didn't care, he only cared about himself now, and if the empire was broken in half would be beneficial to his accumulated strength and the cessation of the king, then Perturabo would do that.

He carefully calculated, Perturabo was manipulating all this, and he couldn't be too anxious to make the Empire realize that it was intentional—not to let people find out about him.

His power is still too small.

But...... Peturabo knew where to turn for his help.

The closest legion to the Iron Warriors is the Iron Fist, and Manus is preparing to lead the Tenth Legion north to join the Emperor of the Third Legion, which is good, like two sides of steel, and Perturabo knows that this former candidate for war commander, Fernus is not an easy person to shake.

The northwestern part of the Iron Warriors is guarded by the Ravens, and Perturabo is not interested in it, and while the cubs of Korakos have a "fine" tradition of being ruled by other primitives, the Nineteenth Legion is too weak and is still an assault type...... Their numbers are too small.

Perturabo was not in a hurry, because the real candidate had already found him automatically.

The Lord of Steel sat on his side, he casually raised the envelope in his hand, golden, really ridiculous, obviously the Seventeenth Legion has its own color, but still insists on choosing that guy's color?

Luojia ...... He silently recited the name of this former brother in his heart, rather than being a dog for the emperor......

Perturabo thought that the blasphemous thought stirred him up, and he wanted to vomit, but his heart beat warmly.

…… It is better to use it for him.

Perturabo's other hand rested carelessly on the armrest, his palm hanging down, and a strangely shaped dagger glittering in his hand.

Vashtor gave the Iron Lord the dagger Death of Faith, and the raw material for its creation came from the last church in Terra, and the Emperor himself destroyed the Thunderstone Church, announcing the ruin of religion.

True hypocrisy, Perturabo thought, what did the emperor turn around and do when he burned and destroyed the last church on Terra, loudly denouncing the people's faith? He turned to Mars and declared himself the Om Messiah, the agent of the gods!

Perturabo couldn't help but laugh, the absurd fact that the emperor was the biggest liar in the empire.

With a faint sense of unease, and a little cruel curiosity, Perturabo couldn't wait for Luojia to arrive.

He raised the dagger in front of him and scrutinized it, and if it was as Vashtor had claimed, he was murdering his brother—and it made him shudder again.

His fingertips loosened slightly, and the meaningless letter from Luojia fell to the ground.

——————————

[Dear brother, I heard that there are many planets in your area that believe in heresy, and in order to purify heresy, I am planning to lead the Bearer on an expedition to this star field, because Fenus seems to be planning to go to Fugen to catch up, and I am inconvenient to contact him, so I came to you on purpose. 】

[The passage of the hazy star field is already notoriously difficult to navigate, and my navigator has been embarrassed by my request on more than one occasion, Brother Perturabo, do you have a stable map of the subspace shipping route while you are fighting here?] Is it convenient to give me one? 】

[I'm looking forward to meeting you, the Fourth Legion is always busy, isn't it?] You didn't attend the Commander Promotion Ceremony, and you could have been with me and Magnus...... Maybe you can dissuade Magnus, or maybe I should have let the Khan talk to Magnus, you know, so that the rest of the story could have been avoided. 】

[Although Magnus is arrogant and often hurts people, I know that he is not actively harboring malicious intentions. 】

[But I was immersed in my own world, and besides, I wasn't a tough person, and we had an argument about me, and I didn't pay much attention to Magnus's cliché about psionic powers—]

Luojia's pen paused, he probably shouldn't have written this, Perturabo and Magnus were close friends, and he shouldn't have taken the initiative to bring up the subject.

But on the other hand, the Iron Lord, perhaps far from the political center of the Empire, is anxiously awaiting news from Magnus.

Luojia pondered for a moment, then he took out a new piece of letterhead, and he should have taken care of Peturabo's emotions, he picked up the invalid manuscript paper, folded it carefully, and discarded it.

The black scepter beside him was exuding a warm aura, and after the burning of the Perfect City, Luojia ordered the craftsmen to cast a scepter for him out of black stone, the same material used to execute the guilty, and at this moment alerted the original body to the thunder pool that he had almost touched in the past.

Luojia carried the Blackstone Scepter with her, and in the daily prayers of the original body and the daily battle with it, this scepter was gradually dyed with the glimmer of psionic energy and faith, and in the hands of the original body, it emitted a faint golden light.

Luojia subconsciously stroked the black scepter, which had become his habit, and finally he decided to tell Pertulabor why he had led the Whisperers here, and that the Emperor had given him an order to preach, but not to disturb the settled areas.

This means that the Wai Yan will have to go to more turbulent regions, preferably to the original planets of the pagan religion, which have the habit of faith, but in the wrong direction, and under the leadership of the Waiko, the pagans will submit to the power of the God Emperor.

What's more, if they are really hopeless, then Luojia will not be distressed to use the extermination order.

As a result, the turbulent regions of the Obscure Star Fields are the best areas for the Whisperers to preach, perhaps with a weak connection to the subspace, where most people believe in some strange religions.

Luojia pondered, wondering how he would answer if Perturabo asked him about Magnus. Luojia was also not present at the scene in Nikaia, and from the mouth of the White Scar Think Tank, he heard that the silencers played an important role in the incident.

The Silencer—Lord of the Silent Retreat, Hades.

Luojia thought silently, it was him, and he wouldn't be wrong.

So, did Magnus also commit the same foolish deeds as Luojia did before? …… Was he also deceived and betrayed by his heirs?

Luojia was silent, but it confirmed his conjecture even more, Hades, the king of Hades, occupies an important place in the plan of the god emperor, he is his real executioner, the corrector, and the agent of the god emperor in the world.

Hades ...... He remembered that night, and Luojia's soul trembled slightly.

No, he thought, he is loyal to the God Emperor, the God Emperor is strong, brings the empire, brings peace, provides direction and path to the people, he will be loyal to him.

It's gone today...... Wednesdays and Thursdays are busier and a little less...... The body is important......

That's right, since the emperor can lead the version, then the opposite side can also (silently cover his face)
