Chapter 6: God's Sin, God's Sin......
With a gentle smile on his face.
Visser, who had changed into formal clothes, strode out of the palace with his head held high, accompanied by the silver-haired beauty.
The blazing sun hangs high, and everything grows.
The planet in front of us is ushering in the dawn.
The atmosphere in the wide streets is quiet and peaceful, everything is thriving as far as the eye can see, and there is no cruel and tragic strife to be seen.
Yet Visser knew...... It's just an illusion.
Standing in front of the gate of the luxurious palace, his iron-gray eyes rose slightly, and he immediately looked at the dazzling sun in the cloud dome.
The warm sunlight bathing him felt extremely familiar, but it also seemed extremely strange.
Familiar, is the temperature of the sun.
And the strange ...... It's the sun itself!
Yes, strictly speaking.
The sun hanging in the sky is not actually a "sun" in the narrow sense.
Rather, it was at least four hundred light-years away from the sun that Visser was familiar with, another very different blazing star!
The inhabitants of this planet named it "The Radiance of Eden".
It symbolizes that it is a rising ...... in this prosperous and beautiful Garden of Eden New Sun.
That's right.
After reading the introductory literature in the study, Visser realized that this was not the Holy Terra he had thought it was at first.
It's a heavenly world called Eden.
Look at the vast territory of the human empire that spans hundreds of galaxies and radiates hundreds of millions of planets.
The vast majority of these planets are not suitable for human habitation or even have no development value.
In the terminology of the Empire, only a planet that is habitable for human beings or has development value can be called a "world".
In today's human empire, there are about 10,000 such "worlds".
A "world" often only serves a specific function, such as the "agricultural world", which for the empire means to grow crops and provide food.
For such a purpose.
Fertilizers from other worlds, machinery and equipment needed for industrial farming, and even the technicians who grow crops will be transported to this world through stable subspace shipping lanes.
In addition to the agricultural world.
Depending on the purpose and function, the various worlds will also be divided into categories such as: Industrial World, Prison World, Foundry World, Mining World, Nest World, Altar World, etc......
Of course.
Among the worlds, the most special is the home planet of the Human Empire, which was once called "Earth", the Throne World, Holy Terra.
And beyond the Holy Terra.
Those rare planets that are the most suitable for human habitation and have extremely superior natural environmental conditions will be classified as "paradise worlds" by the Empire.
If we compare a planet with development value to a raw gemstone.
Then the "heavenly world" is quite set in the crown, those most brilliant pearls.
These rare planets will avoid industrial transformation as much as possible, and will preserve their outstanding natural beauty, build magnificent buildings, and build a self-sufficient material production system.
Of course, the most important thing is.
As a "paradise world", they must be safe enough, so they tend to be mostly far from the front lines, so that they can avoid the chaos of war.
What are they used for?
As the crown prince of the empire, Visser is standing here, so the answer is actually very clear: for vacation.
No, it may not be accurate to say that - Visser doesn't have a job at all.
Or rather...... As the most famous social idler in the Empire, vacationing was his calling.
It's different from the overcrowded world of the Nest City, which is filled with steel jungles.
Paradise is a city of great beauty and beauty, with a variety of estates, casinos, restaurants, opera houses and lavish palaces......
The array of entertainment is dazzling, and as a planet dedicated to pleasure, Paradise is one of the Empire's most extravagant resorts.
Being able to immigrate to a paradise world is a luxury that many Empire people find difficult to achieve in their lifetimes.
But...... For Visser.
The Empire has more than a hundred paradise worlds with a wide variety of gameplay, and he can travel to any of them anytime and anywhere, and is welcomed by the local governor.
Even the Garden of Eden, which countless people have longed for, is just a temporary place for him to be bored and have fun......
With an indifferent smile on his face, Visser looked out at the magnificent planetary capital in front of him.
The white holy stone floor tiles paved the wide streets.
All kinds of tall and magnificent buildings outline a solemn and solemn beauty.
In the distance, you can see a suspended gravity garden with lush vegetation and colorful flowers dotted with stars.
The artificially arranged waterfall fountain draws an elegant splash arc in mid-air.
In the landscapes of the entire capital, there is not a trace of industrial vulgarity, only an endless harmony that seems to be in harmony with nature.
I don't have any real feeling of being on another planet.
The lush vegetation, the bright daylight, everything in this Eden, gave Visser the feeling that he was still standing on the earth......
Unfortunately, this is also a delusion - the scenery on earth is not so beautiful.
The commoners of the nest capital are difficult to see even the daylight all day long, but the nobles of the empire can enjoy everything as they deserve and do not have to pay any price.
Admiring the intricate beauty of the heavenly world in front of him, Visser thought with some embarrassment - if he crossed over and became a low-level commoner in the nest capital, how would the story continue to develop?
I should have chosen to commit suicide immediately......
It is precisely because he has seen what light is that he cannot bear the darkness.
It's ridiculous to say.
Before awakening to the system, Visser couldn't even put his own safety at risk...... After awakening the system, you can make some bold thoughts.
However, in fact.
In the ten minutes after the crossing, Visser did not choose to commit suicide immediately, in addition to his tricky status as a prince, there were ...... Pity and intolerance.
Pity and inpatience redeemed him.
As a hardcore player of Sin, Visser understands the situation faced by the human race in this world - there are hundreds of millions of people who have never even seen what light is.
Yes, Visser certainly understands where the end of Sins of God 40K is headed.
For the human race, this chaotic world is only endless despair.
Death is a relief.
But...... If even him, even he, the traverser, chose to give up.
Who else can represent the hope of humanity?
But that's not my responsibility...... Visser whispered in his heart that it wasn't my responsibility.
However...... He failed to convince himself.
For this.
Visser had to struggle to live, and even if he did, it was far more terrible than death.
"Eden...... Is it? ”
Visser whispered the name of the planet, in fact, he was very familiar with Eden.
There's a whole big chapter in the game that will descend on this planet and carry out all kinds of actions.
It's just that...... In the main line of the original work, this paradise world haunted by countless imperial people is not such a picturesque appearance at this moment.
Rather, it was a scorching scorched earth like hell, full of ruins and broken walls, and there was no green to be seen.
Because, in the main story of the Great Expedition, the planet was exterminated by the Inquisition.
"Extermination Order", literally.
That is, the extinction of all organic life on this planet.
Hundreds of orbital bombardments have blasted Eden's surface to shreds, and the virus bombs released have further damaged the planet's biosphere......
This is followed by burning the atmosphere, evaporating the oceans, and setting the entire planet on fire with storm torpedoes.
From afar, it looks like a magnificent amber burning in space.
The reason for the extermination decree was issued on Eden precisely because traces of a high degree of corruption by pleasure were found here.
A plague of pink lust has swept across the earth, and almost all the humans of the entire planet have degenerated into happy believers, and have begun to make peace wantonly and ugly.
The pink-dyed planet opened a vertical pupil, and the distorted earth cracked and rose, spreading tens of thousands of meters of alien tentacles from the earth's crust......
Eden was exterminated, almost six years after the Great Expedition began.
Other words.
Visser's current age of sixteen means that this beautiful planet beneath his feet will be burned to a scorched earth in ten years.
Isn't the corruption of pleasure just what it says it is, and what comes in clusters?
Of course not!
The roots of the empire have long been rotten! The Empire's greatest enemy is not outside, but in these heavenly worlds of extreme luxury! Right in the midst of these imperial nobles of the wine pond and meat forest!
Belch...... It seems that among them, including the original body of Visser himself, he is also a member of the rotten one, and he is the one who is the most rotten, and he has become the chosen one.
But, Visser must lift up the Holy Separator and make a wave of cutting!
I cross≠ I carry the pot! The bad things were all done by the original body, and they have nothing to do with me......
Moreover, he has not yet degenerated into a Chosen Choice of Pleasure.
You don't have to think about it to know.
Ten years later, the entire planet was completely corrupted.
This means that as early as ten years ago, this paradise world called Eden has already been stretched into many wet tentacles by the depraved god of pleasure!
Heartbreaking......
The atmosphere of joy is really like a flood of beasts, endangering the youth of the empire!
In the main game story, the specific cause of the fall of the original body is not revealed.
However, Visser, of course, could guess that the reason why the original body degenerated into the Chosen One of Pleasure must be inseparable from the journey of Eden.
These heavenly worlds are bright on the surface, but they are all places of filth and filth.
In other words.
It is highly likely that Visser was exposed to many Joyful Believers during the rest of his holiday in Eden!
Realized this joint.
The sensible and safe approach is to leave as soon as possible before being entangled, stay away, and find an opportunity to report to the court.
The devout Forbidden Sisters will be furious, and after searching for incriminating evidence, they will hang the planetary governor of Eden on the space station.
But...... After awakening the system.
Visser had a very bold idea, and the sword went off the rails.
To build power, he needs the loyalty of the Forbidden Ladies to build up.
However, with his own strength and resources...... Before inheriting the throne, it is impossible to pry into those indifferent and devout forbidden troops.
Then, what should be sublimated into the will of the state.
This face?
In Visser's mind, he already had the answer.
Facing the meticulous guidance of his attendants, and carrying his most loyal Miss Forbidden Army, he paced out of the gate of his palace.
Taking the name of the planet as one's surname has been the glory and tradition of the people of the empire since ancient times.
However, such an honor is only available to the most prominent upper echelons on each planet.
For example, the name "Holy Terra".
Within the Empire, only the Forbidden Army and the Imperial Family are available.
And it has to be said that the planetary governor of Eden, Schilling Eden, is a shrewd and capable person.
Behind him, this luxurious palace was specially built by Schilling Eden to provide a place for the Terra royal family to rest and relax.
As such, it occupies the most expensive city in the center of Eden's capital, and is even more magnificent and luxurious than the governor's residence.
And the side ...... It is the church of the goddess.
Walking on the white stone floor tiles, Visser saw the statue of the Holy Lady of Order from a long distance.
In front of the majestic church, the goddess of order, carved from the top sacred stones, is sitting quietly and silently on the throne.
For "do not look directly at God."
So, His countenance is always blurred.
The goddess pressed her left hand to her chest, and a right hand as white as jade stretched out slightly, as if to show mercy to the suffering of the world.
The Templar has always preached that it is the glory of the goddess that has blessed the empire for tens of thousands of years.
If it weren't for the goddess sitting on the throne of the Holy Terra, who guarded the empire for tens of thousands of years, the human race would have been swallowed up by chaos long ago.
This is also the unmistakable truth of this world that countless people of the empire who believe in piety.
However...... What are the facts?
"You've worked hard, Order.
"But, in the end, to no avail.
"Because what you want to protect is the root cause of your ultimate destruction."
I whispered it in my heart.
Gaze at the statue of the goddess of order.
Visser thought with some embarrassment about the fate of this goddess in the game.
God sin, God sin.
——The reason why we want to use this special word to name the entire vast series of IP.
It is precisely because "Sins of God" depicts the pathetic depravity of the gods of this world, and the incomparably dangerous disputes between them.
The good will eventually be defiled, the divine will eventually fall, and the original merciful being will be infected with the original sin called desire, so that "God" has since become a terrifying word.
In this chaotic world of gods, there is no shortage of all kinds of gods.
Most of them are moody, lifeless, and passionate about playing with the mortal world......
They destroy star after star, churning the galaxy into a boiling pot of hot porridge, just for their own pleasure, laughing out loud as they watch the puppets unfold their strife and drama.
To put it simply.
It's these gods, one by one, who are acting in extreme ways!
Among the gods, the most notorious are the four gods known as Chaos:
a "tyrant" who loves to kill and slaughter;
the "abundance" of eternal life and redemption;
spreading the "change" of trickery and wickedness;
and the most irresistible and indulgent ...... "pleasure".
The four gods, known as Chaos, will stir up chaos everywhere they go, and even their names are ominous symbols in the Empire.
However, these god names are not taken randomly.
The names of the gods represent their destiny.
Beings in the sinful world, as long as they act in accordance with these fateful paths, will gradually be guided to their paths, gain strength from them, and even have the honor of becoming God's chosen ones.
If there is a tyrannical temperament, as long as they continue to slaughter, it is equivalent to embarking on the path of tyrants, so that they can learn experience points from such slaughter and gradually increase their level.
No one knows whether the gods created the destiny or whether the gods were born from the destiny.
It's just that an incomparably ironic joke is.
In the eyes of the Imperials, there are of course only four of the most terrifying and depraved evil gods in this universe.
However, in the ...... such as elves, dwarves, greenskins, swarms, demons, and even intelligent lifeforms And so on other races, it seems—
There should be five terrifying evil gods in this world!
Humans are more murderous than tyrants, more hypocritical than abundance, more cunning than all kinds of change, more depraved than pleasure!
And they actually call themselves: order.
The goddess of order is the most notorious evil god in the world!
Actually, there's no problem in thinking that way......
We know that justice and evil are just playthings that can be kneaded at will in the hands of the victor.
Visser understands this very well, after all, he is originally a P Club player with a very flexible moral bottom line.
And, speaking of which.
The four gods of chaos are also good gods symbolizing courage, life, wisdom and beauty before they fall into evil......
There are two sides to the dialectic.
Infected with the original sin called desire, the originally noble God inevitably fell.
So......
What kind of tyrannical posture will the goddess of mercy for all beings, called "order", behave in her fall?
Visser has already glimpsed the end.
He stared at the indistinct face of the goddess, his gaze lingering for a long time, and finally he could only let out a sigh of lamentation.
Because, in the main story of "Divine Sin 40K: The Great Expedition", the last chapter, the most terrifying and invincible hidden boss.
Right now, sitting right in front of him, so holy, so beautiful.
