Eternal Night

Chapter 408 The Golden Human, or... the Primarch!
"So... this is the devil?"

Wu Xianxiao squinted at the birdman with only a head left, then he nodded slowly and said, "Yes, it seems to have no sense of pain. It is indeed a monster."

The birdman was not afraid at all. He laughed and said, "My Lord is... Fuck!"

Everyone looked at the birdman with puzzled expressions. Of course, Wu Xianxiao was completely puzzled, and the people around him were absolutely vigilant with a hint of puzzlement. In the eyes of veteran Dafizi, political commissar Eleon, and the military psychic Hu Tao, there was an absolute fear and disbelief.

"It fucking spoke!?" Dafiqi said in a trembling voice.

Eleon said with a dead look: "It seems that we all have to serve the emperor here..."

Wu Xianxiao looked at the two people with a completely bewildered expression again. In just a moment, the confusion index in the corner of his eyes had dropped to nearly 200,000. He was really worried that if he continued to be confused in this world, his head would become as fragile as air.

At this time, Hu Tao, the psychic accompanying the army, suddenly said in surprise and horror: "No, no, not at all... Don't worry, we are not affected by any subspace, this demon has not corrupted us, no, it's not that it hasn't, but that it can't! It can't corrupt us, you see, it's surprised itself!"

Everyone looked at the bird-headed man, and indeed saw that he was at a loss, as if he had encountered something that was difficult for him to understand. But he soon laughed and said, "This is all my Lord's plan! Everything is in my Lord's plan! You mortals can't understand it!!"

Veteran Dafizi and Political Commissar Eleon both didn't believe it, but they were still themselves.

As retired veterans of the Astra Militarum and as the core political commissars of the Astra Militarum, they knew many things at a deeper level than others, including the psykers who followed the army. They all knew one thing, that is, as mortals, even if they only saw a demon or heard the voice of a demon, it meant that they would be corrupted, their souls would be obtained by the demon, and then their bodies would be stuffed into something in the subspace, and they would no longer be themselves.

There are only a few exceptions to this rule, and one of them is those blessed by the Emperor.

The second is those who have a firm will that surpasses that of ordinary people. This is not an adjective, but a fact. No matter how firm and strong your will is, you cannot resist the corruption of the devil at close range. Only a truly extraordinary will can resist it. This is generally used to describe the Emperor's angels, Astartes monks, and Space Marines. They rely on their extraordinary physique and willpower that has been fighting for hundreds of years, so they have a chance to resist this corruption.

The third type is the powerful and self-controlled psychics. They are not comparable to the military psychics like Hu Tao. Each of them is a true legend. They can use their psychic powers almost without hindrance without having to worry about being targeted and corrupted by demons.

Only these three can resist the corruption of the devil, but now, let alone them, hundreds of people around are safe and sound, no one has their flesh torn off and turned into a monster, and no one is wailing with flames all over their body...

This thing, which was obviously a high-level demon, did not cause any corruption to them?

Hu Tao tremblingly told Wu Xianxiao about the subspace, demons, corruption, etc. At the same time, he actually explained for Political Commissar Eleon: "The political commissar didn't want to shoot me for no reason, but because I am a psychic. Emotional instability will cause my psychic power to run wild, and as a result, my soul will fall into the hands of the devil, and my body will become a carrier for the devil to influence the material world. That's why the political commissar wants to shoot me. This is actually to free me..."

Although Wu Xianxiao understood the underlying structure of this world, his mind was still full of question marks. However, he had a good attitude. Although he did not understand, he respected the rules of this world. He would only take action if he could not stand it.

At this time he looked at the birdman and said: "Are you the strangeness of this world? Then let me ask you, do you know Khorne and Slaanesh?"

In a flash, Political Commissar Eleon, veteran Dafizi, and psychic Hu Tao all rolled and crawled back at least ten meters. At the same time, they all tried to find weapons to aim at Wu Xianxiao, and the birdman once again showed a confused and helpless expression.

"Of course!"

The birdman panted and said, "Of course I know! Mortal, do you want to know the deepest secrets of these two?"

Psychic Hu Tao screamed loudly: "How dare you directly say the real names of these two beings!?"

Political Commissar Eleon and veteran Dafizi silently picked up the laser guns of the unconscious Star Army soldier on the ground and pointed them at Wu Xianxiao and the birdman.

Wu Xianxiao had a headache. He growled, "Quiet!"

The sound spread, and everyone heard it clearly. At the same time, their emotions gradually calmed down. Wu Xianxiao said, "In short, this birdman is a demon, right? Then what value does it have? If not, I will kill it, so that you won't explode here at any time."

Hu Tao continued to roar, "Kill it, sir, please kill it immediately. This level of demon is not something that we mortals can touch!"

Veteran soldier Daffizi remained silent, which meant that the matter was already settled.

Only Eleon remained silent for a moment, then said to Hu Tao: "Hu Tao! Are you sure it can't corrupt us now?"

Hu Tao was stunned for a moment. As his direct superior, he immediately responded instinctively: "Yes, I confirm that it is the same as me. It is unable to use its psychic abilities. In fact... the situation around us is very strange. It can sense the subspace, but it cannot interact with it. It is not only me, but also this... demon. This is not the isolation of the untouchables, but other, more incredible and magnificent forces are at work."

Eleon knew about the Untouchables. Although he didn't know enough about the Warp and demons, he knew that when there were enough Untouchables, these demons would not be able to maintain their physical form, because the isolation of the Warp meant that they were exiled to their stinking lairs. However, the current situation was that the demons existed in a stable form, but they could not use any of the corrupting power of the Warp...

"This one... I don't care who you are. Now I want to ask you solemnly, are you still devoutly believing in the Emperor!?" Eleon asked Wu Xianxiao.

"What?"

Wu Xianxiao thought for a moment and said, "I think I firmly believe in materialism."

Then Wu Xianxiao was pleased to find that the confusion index in the corner of his eyes was fluctuating and increasing.

Eleon subconsciously wanted to pull the trigger of the laser gun in his hand, but thinking about Wu Xianxiao's chest being hit by a cannonball, kicking the Emperor's poison blade, and tearing the Warp Demon apart with his hands, now that he calmed down, he realized how incredible this was. Not to mention seeing it with his own eyes, even those strange rumors he had heard had never happened. In the deepest part of his heart, he even thought of a possibility... Could it be that the person in front of him was... an unknown Primarch! ?

Offspring of the gods!?

As for materialism, it has another name in this world, because it is defined by the state religion as false and even blasphemous, but Political Commissar Eleon happens to know... the Imperial Truth!
That was ten thousand years ago, when the Emperor, the god, was still walking on earth, when the sons of God were still protecting humans and expanding territory for them...

Eleon said in a respectful tone: "Sir... can you control this demon? If it is really harmless, then it may have a lot of information. Although I know that it should be exiled immediately, Inquisitor Kesiya is in this world. She is the Inquisitor of the Demon Tribunal. She may have a different way of dealing with it."

Wu Xianxiao looked at the birdman, and the birdman laughed and said, "Sure enough, all this is as planned. Mortals, you should know that knowledge is..."

Brush brush.

Wu Xianxiong tore off the bird's wings and then its claws. After thinking about it, he tore off its lower body. Then he looked carefully at the bird's mouth that was still talking and tore off its beak. It directly turned into a bird stick.

"It should be... almost done, right?" Wu Xianxiao turned his head to look at the trembling crowd. He made an "oh" sound twice, thinking he understood their thoughts. He simply walked to the Emperor Poison Blade tank and tore off the outer steel plate of the tank, which was several fingers thick. He then squeezed it into a steel roll and rolled the half-bird man, who was still shouting that this was the plan, into it.

Looking at the bundle of bird-shaped steel plates with a few bird feathers exposed, Wu Xianxiao nodded with satisfaction. He then said to the crowd, "Now that you can't see it, you shouldn't be so scared, right?"

Everyone was silent, and then silent again. They were shocked once, twice, and three times, and finally they were still silent.

No, they are more scared, right! ?
After waiting for several seconds, Eleon said to Wu Xianxiao: "Sir, we have to rush to the star port immediately to contact the Inquisitor and deliver this important cargo to the demon cage set up by the Inquisitor. If possible, please help us for the sake of humanity and the truth of the empire!"

Wu Xianxiao was silent for a moment. He looked around, seeing the chaos, explosions, and shouts of killing in the streets farther away, especially the smell of the source of pollution that he could already see. He immediately shook his head and said, "No, you guys just escort it to Star Harbor. I have to rescue a few people. I have been eating the free porridge from the store owner. How can I abandon them at this time?"

Eleon said anxiously: "Sir, the Golden Throne is above, this is not the time to be willful. Its importance may even exceed that of this planet. Besides, we can't do it alone..."

Wu Xianxiao suddenly opened his mouth and let out a soft whistle. With the whistle, everyone felt their minds become clear. Then, the Star Army soldiers who had fainted on the ground slowly woke up, and then they all climbed up nervously, holding their weapons.

Wu Xianxiao raised his hand slightly to everyone and said, "Then let's say goodbye. I'm going to take a look at the outer city."

After saying that, without caring about everyone's reactions, he waved to Jiujiu, Daphne, and Beelzebub who were not far away, turned around and leaped into the air with the three little animals, running towards the inn.

Everyone was still in a daze. Eleon immediately called out to Wu Xianxiao, but he was gone. His face turned pale and he said, "Damn it, damn it..."

The old soldier Dafizzi suddenly said, "Maybe he is not from our time."

Eleon said immediately: "I know! Of course I know, he is incompatible with us, he doesn't even know the devil, and he still firmly believes in the truth of the empire. He... is either a mysterious warrior from the Primarch era, or..."

The psychic Hu Tao whispered, "Maybe it's more helpful than that. Materialism... What a mysterious word. I know, I've heard of this word... Maybe he is..."

"Golden Human!?"

The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment. Suddenly, at this moment, a group of human soldiers were fighting and marching. Behind them, more than a dozen vampire demons wielding fire blades were chasing them. Eleon immediately roared and kicked those Astra Militarum soldiers. Hundreds of Astra Militarum soldiers immediately concentrated their fire on the vampire demons...

Dozens of seconds later, this group of newly arrived elite human soldiers arrived, escorting a woman with a bright light in her pupils. The military uniform this woman wore was very special. When he saw this woman, Eleon immediately saluted and shouted loudly: "Oman Star Region, the political commissar of the 13th Regiment of the 13th Star Realm Army, to..."

Without waiting for Eleon to finish his words, the woman immediately growled, "No time for introductions. You, your subordinates, all of you and... F*ck, what is that!?"

The visitor was Inquisitor Kessia. Although her physical eyes were destroyed, her psychic vision could see more things. She saw a great demon of the Warp, and it was very likely the famous Lord of Change that she knew, the terrifying existence with a title and a real name, an absolute enemy to the empire. It was actually wrapped in an ordinary steel roll.

And then Kaisiya discovered the bird feathers all over the ground, a broken bird head, torn bird wings and legs, and half of the body of the Ever-changing Demon Lord...

The scene was like a torture performance, but unlike the previous tortures where the victims were humans, this time the victim was likely to be this famous demon...

The half-bird man naturally noticed the arrival of Inquisitor Kesiya, and he quacked with his twisted beak: "That's right! This is part of the plan..."

Caesia used a powerful psychic energy to block the voice of the Lord of Change, and then she would immediately kill all the civilians, Astra Militarum soldiers, and even any corrupted members of her Stormtroopers guarding the scene.

But as a psychic who is much stronger than Hu Tao, she also immediately noticed a fact... There was actually no one corrupted at the scene?
Even the civilians, children, women, and the elderly... all were intact! ? ?
The Golden Throne is above!
Eleon looked at the dazed Inquisitor. He probably understood the Inquisitor's mental process. He immediately said, "My Lord, I have important information to report. We may have encountered a mysterious warrior from ten thousand years ago, a secret warrior, or a golden human from even longer ago, or even, even... Please forgive my blasphemy, Emperor. We may have encountered..."

"An unrecorded Primarch!"

"Son of God!!"
