Warhammer: Emperor's Ravenbringer

Chapter 24: Forming the Order of Silence and the Night Watch
"Your laughter makes me look like a villain."

The emperor complained in his inner voice.

"That means you are incredibly strong," Raven said, "because weaklings are not worthy of being villains."

Emperor: “…”

Veronica and others stared at the battlefield in amazement.

At this moment, their chins no longer belong to them.

"The great foreigner, no, the great lord of the empire."

Veronica changed the name.

"Please forgive our rudeness just now, and please accept our humble loyalty."

"This world will become your territory, and we will obey your orders."

Only twenty golden-armored warriors can fight against the thousands of blood clan troops.

If the other party wants to conquer the world, who can stop him?

Veronica has her own pride.

But she is not someone who does not know how to judge the situation.

Joining the Empire is the best choice for them and for the world.

"I accept your allegiance."

The Emperor nodded.

"I already understand the source of this world's suffering. The Empire's army will rain down its wrath and purge all enemies of humanity."

The boarding deck of the Emperor's Grand Plan was bustling with activity.

A large number of soldiers entered the gunboat in neat rows, ready to carry out landing combat missions.

The mechanical priest holds an incense burner in his hand and conducts pre-battle inspections and prayers for the war machines.

The monster-like huge fighter was towed to the ejection track by a robotic arm.

After reconnaissance by the advance team, the Empire has grasped the basic situation of the enemies on the ground and can launch a full-scale war to annihilate the vampires at any time.

"The First Legion will resolve all battles within three hours."

Astelan, the captain of the First Legion, said to all commanders.

As one of the first batch of outstanding warriors selected from Terra to become Astartes.

More than thirty percent of the First Legion's members were implanted with the Empire's first-generation genetic engines.

This makes them, who already possess superhuman physiques, even more powerful.

It became the most deadly imperial army besides the Imperial Guards.

It’s a pity that they were only deployed a few times in the war of unification of the solar system.

Faced with the Empire's fleet, few forces dared to say no.

Those fools who stubbornly resist are often of average strength.

The battle can often be resolved in just a dozen minutes.

It is simply unable to demonstrate the powerful combat capability of Astartes.

The largest-scale operation was when the Empire recaptured Luna.

Replacing the dead and wounded Thunder Warriors, they captured the core area of ​​the Genetic Cult.

This was their first time to carry out a planetary-level combat mission.

Astelan and other warriors were holding their breath, determined to win a beautiful battle.

Let the reporters of the Imperial Daily know the power of the Astartes and their contributions to the Empire.

As the order to start war was given, the fighter planes and transport boats on the deck made a low roar.

The huge propulsion flames lit up the darkened deck.

They roared out, rushed into the cold void, and then entered the atmosphere, stirring up the thick fog.

Imperial forces were simultaneously conducting combat missions across the entire planet.

Cleanse the gathering places of the vampires, destroy powerful monsters, and purge the entire world.

The technology of the vampires is extremely backward, but they possess strong bodies and dark blood magic that far surpass those of ordinary humans.

The magical abilities possessed by high-level vampires are even more amazing. When they burst out at full power, they can destroy heavy tanks.

But in front of the Astartes warriors implanted with genetic engines.

These mutants are still not enough.

Brutal massacres broke out in every corner of the world.

Ordinary people who suffered torture and enslavement witnessed with their own eyes that the once high-ranking vampires were slaughtered by the angels of destruction who descended from the sky.

The Emperor personally participated in this war.

His target is the mutant who claims to be the ancestor of the blood clan.

The other party lives in a luxurious palace, and is surrounded by a guard composed of high-level vampires who master dark blood magic.

The Empire launched a full-scale offensive against the Imperial Palace.

The Imperial Guards killed all the vampire soldiers who tried to stop the Emperor.

They reached the last gate of the palace easily.

When they wanted to open the door, they found that the palace was protected by a blood-red shield.

The imperial troops launched an artillery bombardment, but the shield blocked all the attacks and failed to cause any damage.

The wizard beside Veronica said: "The palace of the ancestor of the blood clan is protected by a dark magic circle. It is difficult to break through with ordinary attacks. Only the cursed can open a way in."

"No need." The Emperor waved his hand, "I will destroy it."

Under the shocked gazes of Veronica and others, the Emperor split the blood-red magic shield with one sword.

"With such a terrifying force, even without the assistance of the army, the Lord of the Empire can kill the ancestor of the blood clan alone."

The wizard beside Veronica could not hide his shock.

He naturally knew how terrifying the dark magic that shrouded the palace was.

The rebels tried every possible means but failed to break through.

Only the cursed one's characteristic of consuming all etheric power can open a way in.

But now, such a powerful dark magic was broken by a sword of the Lord of the Empire.

This power alone is enough to shock the world.

The vampire guards in the palace are all elite.

They wear blood-red armor and possess powerful blood magic and superb martial arts.

If they were facing ordinary troops, they would surely win easily.

Unfortunately, they were facing the Emperor and the Imperial Guards.

In addition, the cursed ones like Veronica and Lucina greatly reduced the power of their blood magic.

These elite high-level vampire guards were quickly slaughtered.

The emperor, surrounded by the imperial guards, soon arrived at the palace where the blood clan ancestor was. The palace seemed to be alive, and the walls were moving rhythmically.
Bright red blood continuously flowed out of the huge crack.

A twisted corpse with the Chaos Octagon carved on it was tied up with iron chains and hung down from the top of the palace.

Green, vicious flames rose from the braziers placed everywhere.

When the Emperor and others walked in, the ancestor of the blood clan was standing next to a huge pool of blood.

The pool of blood surged endlessly, and the red waves of blood formed faces full of malice and screaming silently.

The priests in robes stood in the shadows, watching the Emperor and his entourage.

"You are finally here."

The ancestor of the blood clan turned around, allowing people to see his appearance clearly.

He was wearing a black tuxedo with a stand-up collar, his face was pale, and his two fangs were very conspicuous.

"Today is the day you die." Veronica shouted.

Too many of her brothers and sisters died in the war with the vampires.

She had endless hatred for the guy in front of her.

"Die?" The Blood Clan Ancestor revealed a sarcastic look, "What kind of confidence do you have that makes you think you can defeat me? I am a man chosen by God."

"Come, true God who does not belong to this world, the master of bloody will, the scarlet lord who controls death."

A biting cold wind blew in from some unknown and elusive corner, causing the green flame to shake continuously.

This supernatural gust of wind carries the dust of lost eras and destroyed empires, carrying the meaning of eternity and endlessness.

The temperature in the palace suddenly dropped, and a vicious laugh as sharp as a steel needle came from the shadows.

An invisible will of terror descends upon the world.

A hoarse and vicious voice echoed in the air.

"Why are you, a group of weak mortals, calling me?"

The ancestor of the blood clan looked at the emperor and his entourage and smiled as if everything was under control.

He prayed to that terrible will.

"Respected Lord of Blood, devout believers pray to you to punish those who dare to offend you."

That terrible will responded to him.

"How dare you, a bunch of pathetic mortal ants..."

The strange voice stopped, as if it encountered something confusing.

After a moment, it let out a piercing scream.

"The curser! Damn it! Damn it."

Then, that will fled away at a speed even faster than when it came.

The air temperature rises to normal range.

The flame no longer flickered.

The ancestor of the blood clan: ".."

There's something wrong with this script!!

"Haha, what a pathetic fool, thinking he can rest easy just by having a demon from the warp as his backer."

"How dare a mere demon act so arrogantly in front of the golden giant?"

Raven gave a classic Soul laugh.

Realize that your biggest trump card is unreliable.

The ancestor of the blood clan, who was full of confidence just now, showed an awkward but graceful smile.

"Just now, I said I was just joking, would you believe it?"

The emperor looked at him coldly and waved his hand.

The imperial guards dispersed and surrounded them.

"Okay, I know you don't believe it."

The ancestor of the blood clan exploded with a bang and turned into countless black bats, attempting to escape from the suppression of the imperial army.

"I still have some means to save my life. The mountains and rivers remain unchanged, and our grudge is one of them."

The emperor stretched out a hand before the other party finished speaking.

The terrifying psychic fire erupted instantly.

Sweeping the entire palace.

Set each bat on fire.

A shrill scream sounded.

In just a few seconds, the incarnation of the blood clan's ancestor was completely burned to ashes.

"You speak so fluently, are you going to participate in the King of Comedy?"

Raven complained as he looked at the scattered ashes.

The ancestor of the blood clan died, and a terrifying spiritual energy suddenly erupted.

It swept in all directions with the palace as the center.

The black fog that had shrouded the world for many years dissipated in the impact, and the scorching sun shone on the earth again.

The remaining vampires were set on fire under the scorching sun, screaming in agony, and were eventually burned to ashes.

The subspace monsters roaming the real universe also screamed.

There is no vampire palace and vampire ancestor as anchors.

The barriers of reality are being strengthened, and the laws of physics are showing their cold and powerful force.

The monsters' bodies melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and their twisted souls were thrown back into the warp.

The nightmare that enveloped the entire world was dispelled.

The planet has welcomed hope and a future.

"This experience has once again heightened my concerns about the warp."

The Emperor watched the corruption within the palace grow and conceived a new plan.

"I plan to form the Order of Silence to specifically accept the cursed. I will have them establish Night Watch organizations in various galaxies to suppress those psykers and mutants."

"Big guy, I think your plan should be improved a little bit." said the raven.

The Emperor looked at the Raven, was silent for a while, and then said, "Is there anything that is not perfect?"

Waldo on the side looked at the emperor with surprise.

The emperor has always had a tough attitude and rarely listens to other people's opinions.

A lot of the time, even Makado felt tired and found it difficult to communicate with him.

Now I can listen to the advice of the raven
This is undoubtedly a good thing for the emperor, whose humanity is decreasing.
