5. Listen to history by the high fire

Smoke rose and stenched.

In the scorched earth, Hades sat frustrated on a corpse of insects, covering his eyes with one hand.

Calm down...... Be calm......

- With a bunch of bugs! What can I do to manage the empire?

No, the original group of high lords is dead, and the people who are in office now may not be virtuous ministers.

Mortals attack the original body politically! How dare they!

Even Killiman.

Killiman is the only one of all the primordials who takes the big picture into account and knows how to put compassion for mortals into practice!

They even impeached the original body that treated mortals best???

Who gave them the guts?!

Breathe deeply...... Breathe deeply...... Hades exhaled a cloudy breath and forcibly suppressed the emotions and questions that were tumbling inside him.

After releasing the Star Lightning, Hades felt a numb calm and tiredness.

He began to sort out—it was probably Blake's side of the story, and, Hades's instincts, told him that Gilliman's affair must have something to do with St. Giles's Ascension.

Until he knew what was going on that day, Hades couldn't jump to conclusions.

But- but-

Hades took a deep breath again, if Robert was still the same as he knew at the beginning - then the original group of high lords was more or less ignorant.

If it was something he was familiar with, the High Lord of the Warhammer World...... It's possible to make a shocking move.

Hades stared at the scorched earth in front of him, and he remembered that he had worked desperately to save the emperor and a few more primordial bodies—just for the sake of the smooth development of humanity for thousands of years to come.

As long as the original body remains, the development of the empire is guaranteed.

Humanity has at least one more layer of security.

Even if it doesn't work, Hades thinks he's waking up and at least seeing a living loyalist primordial.

Instead of hearing about Killiman's death......

No......

Hades still thinks something is wrong.

He knew that Robert Gilliman was the primordial of political expertise, and perhaps Hades could question Killiman's views – but he would never question Killiman's abilities.

If the High Lords try to impeach Killiman, are they really capable of completely concealing Killeman until the final incident erupts?

Could it be that in those years, there was an existence in the empire that was politically strong enough to fight against Killiman?

Hades scratched his head bitterly.

Could it be that Killiman's abilities have declined...... The heavy government affairs of the empire finally crushed the regent?

Killiman...... Hades remembered the Lord of Maculag, who had been full of hope and ambition, ambitious, ambitious, and arrogant in the mire of the world.

Hades smiled, he was still the talent that Killiman was trying to woo, and if it weren't for his roots in Barbarus and the Death Guard—who could refuse the promised land of Maculag and a wise man who knew how to make good use of it?

Or a rare normal person in the original body......

As the night wore deep, the stars above Hades' head moved across the firmament, and the rekindled bonfires rose and fell, and finally, Hades slowly rose to his feet and walked back towards Black.

Octarius Star Sector is not too far from the Five Hundred Worlds.

Hades thought, the ashes rustling beneath his feet, and he might have to make a trip to Macurag first.

Then go to Terra.

Terra, Hades thought, the Council of High Lords, even if the group of people at that time was dead, he needed to go over in person-

Check out the situation of each High Lord for yourself.

Stand behind them, pat them on the shoulder, and kindly offer condolences to their work.

Best, Hades emphasized in his heart, it was best that when he came to Terra, he would have to carry a condition that no one in Terra could refuse.

He will gather his army.

A flash of scarlet flashed in the machine's eyes.

——————————

By the campfire, Hades sat down by the campfire again, but this time Hades did it next to the son of Hades.

Hades looked at the bonfire calmly, "Blake, do you think there is still hope for the galaxy now?" ”

"Yes," Blake couldn't help but move a little into the distance, "Father, under your shadow, we always believe that hope lasts forever. ”

Hades sighed and said a little tiredly, "That's it...... It's not that bad, go ahead, ...... first Skip the death guard first, I need to slow down first. ”

As Hades thought, the Thousand Sons of the Fifteenth Legion had been removed before the Great Rebellion, so Black had no idea of the legion; The Sons of Horus of the Sixteenth Legion became the Black Legion led by the Great Marauder Abadon;

The remnants of the Seventeenth Legion's Bearers were imprisoned by the Death Guards and later released during the re-establishment of the State Church.

???

The Death Guard imprisoned the Waiko, ordering them to write religious books???

Hades fell into a long silence.

At least...... At least not the death guards were imprisoned...... It doesn't matter anymore.

Vulcan, the original body of the Eighteenth Legion, disappeared after the Beast War; In the Nineteenth Legion, Koraks turned out to be an inquisitor, but he also disappeared later.

As for Alpha and Omega, Hades frowned, one of the two primordials had cast Nurgle and the other had cast Sadomasochism—something he hadn't expected.

Why do they do that? But no one could sort out the thoughts of the Alphas, including Alpha himself, and Hades asked Blake a few more questions about Alpha, but there were no answers.

The spark in the fire floated in front of Hades and exploded after a crackle on the tip of his nose, and Hades waved his hand to drive the spark away.

When the story ended, both of them fell silent, except for the still sleeping Tiens, which let out a slight breathing sound.

Hades sighed,

"Blake, Motarian...... How about Motarian? He's dead too? Still is...... Worse, he fell ......"

Hades couldn't go on,

He probably should have believed Motarian, but when they last met, Motarian still looked like an extremist - or maybe he still is.

Extremes are always bad, Hades thought, at least in this world, extremes are easy to lead to destruction, and the more extreme they are, the easier they are to be favored by subspace.

In fact, in Hades's mind, there has always been a certain stereotype, like he believes that St. Giles is perfect, that the lion king of the First Legion will never betray, and that Robert is a normal person full of political points.

But now, St. Giles has been removed, the Lion King is at risk of betrayal, and Robert has been impeached by the mortal lords.

When I woke up, it was as if the whole world was working on a mess.

He was a little worried that he had put the most effort and energy into the death guard.

Blake straightened his back, frustrated at not being able to answer the Father of Genes' question.

But not then, as children of Hades, sometimes they know more of the Death Guard's secrets than the Death Guard themselves.

"My father," Black said, "Lord Motarian has not been summoned by the Undertaker of the Death Guard for four thousand years lately - even if the Undead Kalas himself organizes the summoning ceremony, he will not be able to contact the Pale Lord. ”

Without waiting for Hades to ask, Black continued, he probably knew what Hades was trying to ask,

"Lord Motarian last appeared at 37, when he appeared in the Subspace Expeditionary Force led by Two-Face Volks, and led 350,000 death guards to attack the subspace."

"How much?!"

Hades, who had just looked dumbfounded, suddenly regained his senses and shouted, "No-summoning-wait, why can Mortarian be summoned?!" ”

He looked at Blake in horror, as if Blake's next words would kill him, and Blake blinked in confusion,

"Father of Genes, Lord Motarian was sanctified long before you left, and according to the words of the Golden Sage and Kalas Battle Seniors, it is the awakening of the essence of subspace."

Hades suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but it was okay...... Although the odds are slim, the word "summon" just now reminds Hades of subspace creatures - the word associated with it is ascension.

Awakening the essence of subspace...... A good thing.

Hades thought that he remembered that the Raven King in the original book, Corax, awakened his subspace essence, which greatly increased his strength.

The heart that had been lifted since hearing that the Ninth Legion had been removed was finally put down, and Hades breathed a sigh of relief Now that Motarian has awakened his subspace essence, then at least when facing the four gods, he will not be so powerless anymore.

But...... Motarian who awakens to the essence of subspace.

Hades groaned for a moment,

"Do you have a portrait of Mortarian, Blake? I mean after awakening to the essence of subspace. ”

Blake shook his head,

"The Grim Reaper doesn't like to spread his image, and until then, Lord Motarian had been rejecting too much faith and affection."

"Before?"

Hades asked,

Blake paused for a moment, and it seemed that what he was going to say next would be the special offering of the Underworld,

"Yes, my father, after Lord Motarian led his army to attack the subspace, as time passed, the Death Guard discovered that the authority of the Grim Reaper was declining, so the belief in the Grim Reaper began to spread again and widely."

"But," Blake glanced at the sleeping Barry, "it's not enough, I've heard that Lord Kalas has consulted with the Golden Sage about expanding the faith and authority of the Grim Reaper—even if it might dilute his powers. The higher-ups of the Death Guard agree that Lord Motarian is in danger in subspace, and that he urgently needs more faith to get out of it. ”

Mortarian led 350,000 death guards into the subspace and found himself in a difficult situation......

Hades thought, it seems that Macurag's visit and Terra's trip can also be postponed, now that he already knows Motarian's whereabouts, he will directly enter the subspace and fish out the Lord of Death.

Get in touch with the Death Guard first.

As for what Blake had just said, Hades spoke, "Are you saying that the more people believe in Motarian, the more power they can give Motarian?" ”

Blake nodded,

"But the Pale Lord himself is extremely disgusted by such behavior," replied the Son of Hades, "and more faith means more chaos, and Lord Motarian does not want that. ”

"Messy?" Hades didn't understand.

"The Pale Lord, as advertised by the Death Guard, wields only death,"

"But in the process of propagation, it is inevitable that there will be people who will misinterpret this authority, and at the same time, people will pray, and when they pray, they will mix with their other desires, so that the faith received by Lord Motarian will be mixed."

I see...... Hades thought that this was very similar to the situation of Neos, which was easy to avoid, and when the time came, just let him sanitize the black domain.

And was the authority Mortarian given death......?

He snatched it from Nurgle?

Hades closed his eyes, death, he thought intently,

Praise be to the Pale Lord, praise be to the Grim Reaper.

Hades felt his own black domain, but alas, he didn't feel anything.

Hades opened his eyes in disappointment, and it seemed that Motarian didn't want the power of his faith, or maybe he hadn't found the subspace of the Grim Reaper.

Perhaps what came out of Hades was not the "power of faith", but the black domain that devoured spiritual energy.

But no matter what, Hades still felt a little relieved to hear that Motarian had awakened to his subspace essence and had successfully exploded 350,000 soldiers.

350,000 Space Marines...... This requires a lot of logistical management.

None of this was done by Motarian, but even if Motarian found such a talent, and squeezed it, so that he could help the Death Guard Explode, it would be extremely gratifying for Hades.

As for Motarian's possible predicament in subspace, Hades was silent, he had been absent for three thousand years, and a few more years...... Should Motarian still hold on?

Come on, Motarian who has awakened the essence of subspace.

"Blake, now the Death Guard, how many people are there in the sub-regiment that can be dispatched immediately?"

Hades asked as if casually, but Blake immediately understood what Hades meant,

"My father, due to the previous expedition of the Lord of Death, now that the Death Guard United Regiment, you can dispatch a total of 130,000 people - but you need 30,000 to guard the Storm Field."

100,000 Space Marines, quite a few, Hades thought.

But as if guilty of it, Blake said eagerly,

"Not only can you send the Death Guards, but the Ultramarines are also friendly with us, and if they confirm you as the Queen of Hades, the Ultramarines will provide at least 70,000 Space Marines, as well as the World Eaters, even if their numbers are smaller, 40,000 warriors can still be squeezed out."

"And there's the Cult of the Mechanica, and since the doctrinal change, countless Forge Worlds are your loyal followers, even if you think the power of these Forge Worlds is too loose...... Then Greier and Faos can still help you to make your comeback. ”

Hearing Blake's words, Hades didn't have to think about it to know that Kim and Kirkland had written their own Hades into the teachings of the Mechanical.

But it reminds Hades,

"In the 10,000 years I've been asleep, has anything happened in the Mechanical?"

Blake immediately recited it like an endorsement,

"The short-sighted Mars tried in vain to attack the Holy Land of Hades, but the Gryer Casting World and the Faos Casting World foiled Mars's conspiracy, and then the Great Sages landed on Mars and rewrote the religion to the Underworld."

"However, Mars's anger never went out, and after the Forge World of Faros announced that they had fulfilled the will of the Immortal and developed the [Measuring Bullet Bow], Mars immediately launched an attack on Faros with the psionics of Terra."

Measuring bullets and bows?!

Isn't this the technology of the stars?!

Hades was stunned for a moment, followed by irrepressible ecstasy.
