Chapter 293 The Four Giants of the Second Empire (Please Subscribe)
Lieutenant Governor of the Second Empire.

As soon as Luo Xi landed from the Red Alert's corridor bridge, he learned this shocking news.

"Answer me, what time is it now? I just went to the eastern part of the galaxy, why has Macragge changed so drastically?"

He even suspected that there was a problem with the webway, causing him to travel to a new time node.

The mortal official remained respectful. The lord in front of him was once the Primarch's personal advisor, but now he had a new identity.

In terms of status, Roche is only below Regent Sanguinius, Lord Protector Lion's Johnson, and Imperial Viceroy Guilliman.

The first three are all Primarchs, and only Roche is a pure mortal, which also means that Roche is the mortal representative with the highest status in the entire Extreme Star Domain at the moment.

But why does Governor Luo Xi look a little unhappy?
His brain circuits worked quickly and he came to a more reasonable conclusion: perhaps Lord Luo Xi was too shocked and excited and was temporarily unable to adapt to the change in his identity.

After all, it is such an honor to be recognized by the three Primarchs!

"My Lord, it is now 009.M31. Our own empire of the Five Hundred Worlds will flourish under your leadership."

Hearing this time, Luo Xi breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down temporarily.

During his absence, it seemed that Sanguinius also came to Macragge, and Guilliman, who had been hesitant about establishing the Second Empire, quickly put him on the throne.

"Now that things have come to this, I will go meet them first. Nobi Guilliman, ah Nobi Guilliman, you put such a big hat on my head while I was away, I have to settle the score with you!"

Roche felt as if his eyes were darkening when he had the opportunity to take on another position and title. He already had enough things to do, and now Guilliman had given him a bunch of tasks.

Originally he was only responsible for matters such as technological creation, but now, the deputy governor is not just helping the governor and cleaning up his mess.

In a trance, he saw Guilliman sitting on the mountain of documents, waving to him, indicating that there was a small stool nearby where he could sit.

Who wants to work overtime with Guilliman until the end of the world?
The mortal official only saw that the deputy governor's face was like spilled sauce, vinegar and tea, changing in an instant, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

As expected of the Vice-Governor of the Empire, he has such great skills in cultivating his Qi that he doesn't even show an ecstatic expression.

I really need to continue to hone my skills. If I can learn one-tenth of Governor Roche's skills, I think I will be able to climb to the position of planetary governor.

I admire you.

If Luo Xi knew what the official next to him was thinking, he would probably be furious. This was not a good job at all. It was clearly a bigger pit that he needed to fill.

"The man next to me is the representative of the Eldar, the prophet of the Ulthwe Ark, Eldrad Ulthlan. He will sign a covenant with us on behalf of the Eldar."

"Report to the Primarchs. This will be a formal meeting."

Uslan followed Luo Xi. Although the appearance of the elves was very similar to humans, their tall stature and pointed ears clearly showed that they were aliens.

"The Eldar?" The mortal official pondered over the term. Logically speaking, it was impossible for an alien to set foot on the territory of Macragge, but the one who brought him here was the newly appointed Deputy Governor of the Empire.

Never mind. It's not his business to worry about.

If I offend Governor Roshi during our first meeting, it will be difficult in the future.

Led by officials, Roshi and Uslan took the space elevator from low-Earth orbit to the surface of Macragge. Looking down from the sky, Macragge was filled with cheers, and the wide streets were crowded with people parading and celebrating, still celebrating the birth of their own empire.

"It's a pity that you came back a little late, Governor General. The Imperial Regent ascended the throne in Macragge three days ago. I will never forget that scene for the rest of my life."

The official was still muttering on the side, and after hearing his vivid description, Luo Xi also saw that historic moment.

Three days ago, Macragge seemed to be radiating light, and the tall buildings and spires, as well as the ancient church buildings, were shrouded in a sacred golden color.

The sky was full of shuttling spaceships, busy working for the newly established empire.

All the streets were crowded with people. People from all walks of life put down their work and took to the streets to celebrate the establishment of the new empire under the thunderous roar of the six war horns left by the ancient war king.

A war parade more grandiose than the previous one to welcome the Coming of the Lion slowly unfolded, with the three legions of Astartes gathering for the parade, the Mechanicus sending more Titans, and the mortal auxiliary forces showing their heroic spirit far superior to before.

The three Primarchs stood high above the dome of the Titan's Gate. Under the gaze of everyone, Guilliman took Sanguinius' right hand and raised the new Emperor's hand to the sky.

The Lord of Five Hundred Worlds was surrounded by two angel brothers, who stood side by side and slowly turned so that everyone could see their faces clearly. The majestic wings of Sanguinius set off the two Primarchs, just like the double-headed eagle emblem of the Empire.

Luo Xi had to admit that even through other people's descriptions, the picture that emerged in his mind was enough to make his heart surge.

"Why is there no physical record? Photos? Videos? Holographic projections? Why aren't there even paintings or statues?"

"This is a joint order from the three lords. Lord Guilliman strictly forbids any chronicler to record this incident. We don't understand why. It's such a pity." The mortal official replied helplessly.

Roche immediately understood that Guilliman had a trick up his sleeve. If he was really sure that the empire was safe, then the Second Empire would become an empire that would not be remembered, and of course no evidence could be left behind.

Entering the Primarch's inner court, oh no, now this place has been converted into the imperial palace of the Second Empire.

Everywhere were mortal artisans and priests of the Mechanicum, working on massive machines to renovate and decorate the Primarch's inner chamber to meet Imperial standards.

The bustling crowd made the inner court, which was originally heavily guarded, seem particularly lively. A large number of Ultramarines patrolled around proudly. Roxi saw a sense of pride and glory in these Astartes that was different from the past.

It is a very special feeling. The warriors are still the same warriors, but their mental outlook and aura are completely different.

Grod, the leader of the Ever-Victorious Army, came to greet Roche's arrival. His huge power armor was decorated with more golden emblems of glory, which, combined with the cobalt blue background, looked even more majestic.

Grod did not wear a helmet, but instead wore a golden laurel wreath, a characteristic of Macragge. Gorgeous tassels hung from his shoulder armor and breastplate. He wore an exquisite cloak behind him, and he seemed to be carrying the wind when he walked.

The original Ever-Victorious Army was the Primarch's Guards, responsible for protecting the Primarch.

And now, Guilliman has become the governor of the Second Empire... Doesn't that mean that they have become the Second Empire's imperial guards?
Luo Xi seemed to have discovered the root cause of their changes. Their self-perception had changed, and naturally their mental outlook would also change.

"Welcome back, Lord Roche." The tall Grod bowed slightly. He was only slightly younger than Auguston in the Ultramarines Legion. Standing in front of Roche was like a high metal wall.

"Lord Guilliman and the Imperial Regent have been waiting for a long time. Please follow me."

The mortal official following Luo Xi bowed and took his leave, while Uslan still followed him.

Grod glanced at the blasphemous alien, but did not attack. He just stood apart from Roshi and Uslan, ready to strangle the Eldar alien's neck as quickly as possible.
