Warhammer: Emperor's Ravenbringer

Chapter 150 The Raven Lord's Shock

A talking black raven, offering to help itself.

You only need to pay a small price.

This trick is like the devil's trick in a fairy tale.

Corax frowned.

"Price? Do you want my soul? Or do you want me to harvest enough souls for you?"

No matter which one it is, I won't agree to it.

Corax added silently in his mind.

He moved quietly, ready to find a suitable moment to take down the raven.

The risks posed by this raven are uncontrollable.

If the traces are exposed as a result.

Not only would he be in danger, but the entire uprising would also most likely fail.

"Soul? Only those idiots in the Warp need that."

The raven raised its little head with a look of disdain.

"I am a noble raven. I don't need those things."

"All you have to do is find me 99 different flavors of French fries or ketchup, and the planet is yours, fair game, and clearly marked."

Several big question marks appeared in Corax's head.

Is this some new scam that gives you the right to rule a planet by offering ninety-nine different flavors of French fries or ketchup?
"Is this all you need?" The ignorant Corax had no idea how harsh this condition was.

Empire has a large number of research institutes developing different flavors of French fries.

Imperial forces roaming around the galaxy, or even planning to go beyond the galaxy, have the mission of collecting potatoes and tomatoes from different planets.

The Empire has every flavor imaginable.

Even black holes have been used as experimental bases for growing potatoes.

The density of the potatoes grown is higher than that of iron, and they can penetrate a starship if thrown out.

To find ninety-nine different flavors of chips and ketchup, Corax has to go to other universes.

You may not be able to collect them even if you go to one universe, you may have to go to many universes to do it.

"Of course, the noble raven only needs delicious French fries and ketchup. Souls? That's what the uncivilized and savage creatures in the warp need." said the raven.

"That sounds like a good idea." Corax considered the advantages of the deal.

Just some chips, no big deal.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard in the window to Corax's left.

Corax hastily stuck to the wall to avoid being discovered by the enemy.

The raven also flapped its wings, landed on his shoulder, and hid in the darkness with him.

Two fully armed soldiers walked to the window, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly with a satisfied look on their faces.

"It wouldn't be surprising if that son of a bitch gets killed from behind someday."

A soldier complained about his superior while smoking.

"Stop complaining, do it for the money's sake," said another soldier.

"If it weren't for the money, who would want to come to this damn place?"

"Be patient. If you can't bear it, think about what humble things you have done for money."

"You're absolutely right, Bourne. By the way, I'm a little curious, have you ever done anything menial for money?"

"I can't get a wife without money, so I can only get the wives from my neighbors."

"You're just like that son of a bitch, damn it."

"Ha ha.."

The conversation between the two soldiers left Corax, who was lying outside the window, speechless.

The raven standing on his shoulder also began to complain.

Wow, the Minotaur is right in front of me.

Corax seized the opportunity, jumped up, and rushed in through the window.

The two smoking soldiers stared at the Primarch with wide eyes, and before they could react, they were kicked away.

Then he walked over and broke the two men's necks quickly and efficiently.

"This is the revenge of the Pure Love Party." Raven muttered as he looked at the soldier whose neck was twisted, and then he turned to look at Corax, "How about a deal? As long as you can offer me ninety-nine different flavors of French fries or ketchup, you can exchange it for my help."

"No need, I will lead them to victory."

Corax refused, and walked deeper into the Black Tower, moving like a ghost, unnoticed.

He executed some sentinels at key nodes, and finally, he arrived at the core control area of ​​the Black Tower.

The slave owner's minions stationed here were slaughtered by Corax before they could even scream.

He took control of the Black Tower.

"Lessia will be free from today."

After saying this, he shut down the monitoring and protection systems, and implanted the virus code that had been prepared long ago into the core host to paralyze the automatic weapon arrays.

When the searchlights monitoring the mining area went out, the first explosion rang out along with the gunfire of the uprising.

A huge explosion sounded, deafening, and echoed throughout the mining area.

The angry slave miners rushed out of the mine with weapons in hand, shouting freedom and charging towards the slave owners' army.

The slave owners' army was caught off guard.

They were still wondering why the surveillance and weapons systems were suddenly shut down when they saw the slave miners who were enslaved and oppressed by them on a daily basis rushing out with weapons.

The miners pulled the trigger and shot the slave owner's minions.

Dense lasers and bullets poured out like a tide.

In just a moment, they were defeated.

The slaveholders' army fled.

But soon they were reorganized, blocking key intersections and cutting off the life support of the underground miners.

The rebels had been preparing for the uprising for a long time.

They rehearsed the scenario many times, perfecting every conceivable detail.

Everything went smoothly at first, but the powerful military force of the slave owners' army still caused them to suffer heavy losses.

As they used atomic mining explosives to destroy the enemy's control center, a large number of armed drones also roared in and fired wildly at the ground.

The slave owners' army also took advantage of the situation to counterattack.

The fierce fighting caused heavy casualties to the rebels.

Corax witnessed this and joined the battle.

The sharp claws slaughtered the enemy with ease.

But the enemy was too numerous, and the number of casualties among the rebels soared.

The slave owner's army garrisoned an iron fortress.

Not only does it have fierce firepower, it also has a large number of drones and automatic walking war machines.

“So many people died.”

The raven stood on Corax's shoulder.

Witness this war for freedom.

"My proposal is still valid now." Raven said, "Otherwise, with your current weapons, you will have to pay a heavy price in casualties if you want to win this war."

"Do you really just want those fries and ketchup?" Corax tore open the throat of an enemy soldier, and the bright red blood spurted out, staining the entire ground red.

"Yes." Raven nodded.

Corax looked at the rebels who were struggling to advance in the distance. "Okay, I agree, as long as you can reduce casualties."

"it is good."

Corax waited a moment before turning to look at the raven over his shoulder.

"What about the contract? Don't you want to sign it?"

"Contract?" Raven shook his head. "No, I trust your character. I'm going to summon my own summoned beast now."

"Summon a beast!" Corax frowned. Why did he feel a little unreliable? "Come out, Big Corncob Beast." Raven raised his wings and a circle of light appeared in the air.

Then several golden figures fell from the sky.

When it landed, there was a loud bang.

It was Waldo and several high-ranking officials of the Imperial Guard who came.

They are inspecting the Biological Research Institute and plan to fully equip the Imperial Guard with fourth-generation gene engines and develop a dedicated fifth-generation gene engine.

A circle of light suddenly appeared, and before they could react, they fell into it.

who am I?
where am I?
What should I do?
Waldo looked around with a confused look on his face.

"Big corn cob," the raven shouted, flapping its wings. "Hurry up and kill those slave owners' armies."

Waldo turned around upon hearing the voice, saw the raven on Corax's shoulder, and instantly understood what was going on.

"Raven!!" Waldo's blood pressure soared.

Being a servant is fine, but now he's become a summoned beast!!

When something happens, just use summoning, right? !

Bullying the commander of the Imperial Army is too much!!

"What are you mumbling about?" asked the raven.

The commander of the imperial guards clenched his fists and showed his great skill in changing his expression. He smiled and said, "I want to tell you not to work too hard. Let me handle these enemies. It is my honor to serve you, Lord Raven."

"Is that really the case?" Raven tilted his head.

La and Sagittarius, who were standing in the back, tried hard to hold back their laughter.

The usually serious and solemn commander of the imperial guards suffered a setback, which made them inexplicably happy.

"Yes." Waldo nodded.

"Then let's get to work. By the way, let me introduce you. This is Corax, the nineteenth Primarch."

Raven didn't care about Waldo's little thoughts, gave him a new task, and introduced Corax.

Valdor looked at Corax, "The last Primarch to return?"

"Primarch?" Corax asked in confusion.

"You didn't tell him?" Waldo looked at Raven.

"Popularizing science is not my job. It's your subordinates who are in charge of finding the original body. How dare you ask me?"

Raven's words made Waldo want to vomit blood.

As expected, it’s still that lazy and greedy crow.

"You are the Emperor's biological son, Lord of the Empire's Nineteenth Legion." Valdor activated the engine in his body and input a piece of information into Corax's mind.

Corax's eyes widened.

He turned to look at the raven.

This guy turned out to be the ruler of the empire, just like his father whom he had never met.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and get to work quickly. Otherwise, I'll ask you to guard the pond." Raven said to Waldo.

Waldo didn't dare to object to Raven's orders and could only vent his anger on the slave owner's army.

He activated his weapon and rushed into the enemy group like a golden god of war.

Ra and Sagittarius also charged forward.

"You dare to resist."

A soldier who had undergone biochemical transformation and was burly and strong roared.

Before he could finish his words, he was beaten to pieces by the commander of the imperial guards.

The crimson blood mist slowly dissipated in the air, and the debris scattered all over the ground was creepy.

Ra and Sagittarius also burst out with amazing fighting power.

Corax watched in amazement as the three Custodians charged into battle.

The rebels around him were also stunned.

It is impossible to see how many enemies were killed, nor the process of killing them.

It's too fast.

The Custodians did not use any firearms, but rather some kind of spear covered in splendor.

It can cut iron like mud and destroy anything.

Tanks, bipedal walkers, and turrets were all overturned and chopped into piles of burning scrap metal.

In just a few breaths, the iron fortress that the rebels had paid a heavy price to defeat was breached by the Imperial Guards.

The head of the defending general was chopped off and hung on a flagpole in the ruins of the fortress, which was emitting black smoke.

With the help of the imperial guards, Lesia was quickly liberated.

Even the industrially developed main planet, Kavach, soon fell.

Facing three demigods who can open up space at will and split tanks and mechas.

The local powerful people were completely powerless to resist and were slaughtered like melons and vegetables.

The planet was liberated.

"You owe me ninety-nine different flavors of chips or ketchup," Raven said to Corax, who was stunned and felt like he was dreaming.

Corax came back to his senses and said, "This is easy. I can get them to serve it soon."

"The ones I've eaten are not good." said the raven.

"Don't worry." Corax promised ignorantly.

Valdo, who had finished his work nearby, looked with pity at the Primarch who had incurred a heavy debt before returning to the Empire.

I hope that after knowing the truth, he can still maintain his current confidence and optimism.

The new flavor of fries can be sold at a sky-high price in the Empire.

An era where a Rogue Trader can easily conquer a planet.

Not to mention one planet, even if it were a hundred planets, there would be plenty of people willing to exchange them.

At least the Primarchs were happy with the deal.

For them, conquering a planet is as easy as eating and drinking.

Several Primarchs are now fighting in other universes.

If you want a planet, you can get it easily.

"Big Corn Cob, now that the work is done, you can take the little crow back with you. Let him study on Terra for a while, and then he can lead the 19th Legion." The raven said, "Let him work hard for my fries and ketchup."

Corax was somewhat reluctant to leave Lesia, whom he had just liberated.

But Raven easily convinced him.

"You have to go to Terra. You can't help at all in Lesia. They need to rebuild and get external resources and technology. You can get these by going to Terra."

The space-time channel is opened.

After taking one last look at Lesia, Corax followed the commander of the Imperial Guards and left.

The surrounding space environment distorted and then returned to normal.

In just a moment, he traveled tens of thousands of light years and arrived at a giant platform in the solar system.

The platform is so magnificent that it is larger than a continent.

There are countless magnificent machines and equipment.

The guards stationed here noticed the spatial fluctuations at the first moment, and activated their weapons and prepared for battle.

When they saw that the person coming was the commander of the imperial guards, they put away their weapons.

The activated turrets also turned away.

The local supervisor arrived quickly, and after saluting, he arranged the transport boat according to Waldo's orders.

When Corax walked out of the space-time channel and saw the solar system for the first time, he was deeply shocked again.

Megastructures can be found throughout the galaxy.

Even stars are surrounded by giant structures.

"Come on, I'll take you to see your father and your brothers," Valdor said to Corax.
