Warhammer: Just unified the Empire, you said it was 40K

Chapter 286 Meeting the Emperor (The boss gave me a day off, so here's an extra chapter 2)

How long did they wander in the warp?
They can't remember anymore.

Now, they can finally find their way home from the warp.

This is an exciting thing for them.

"Return to Terra!"

For those who supported the Empire's frontiers during the warp storm, their journeys can finally continue. Many will also be able to re-establish contact with the Star Speakers within the Empire's Star Court by lighting the Star Torches, and learn about everything that is happening in the Empire.

Even the planetary worlds near the Dark Side of the Empire, which created the Great Rift in the Warp, the Knight Families, and the Forging Worlds.

They also saw the starlight torches lit by the Empire through the communication with the Star Speakers.

The star torch is like the torch they hoped for.

The relighting of the Empire's starlight signifies that the Empire is not yet out of contact, and that the Empire has not yet reached its worst point. Previously, the Empire experienced a brief period of disconnection, and the loss of light from the starlight caused them to panic. However, through expeditions and other means, the Empire has now reclaimed the lost territories, and the starlight has been relit.

All of this indicates that the empire is gradually developing in a positive direction.

Once the empire recovers, it will surely reclaim other territories.

So these people were filled with hope again. They had been desperately thinking that they would have to watch themselves perish along with the empire, but now it seemed that the empire had not been destroyed and they still had hope. They just had to wait and the empire would send people to support them.

Now all they have to do is desperately resist these chaotic forces.

And to establish new communication with the Empire as soon as possible.

One by one, the Star Speakers, or families of Navigators, are trying their best to communicate with Terra, hoping to obtain all the good news on Terra to boost their confidence.

Meanwhile, the upper-level lords, the imperial administrative units, or high-ranking officers of certain armies were also eager to know everything that was happening on Terra. What they were most worried about was that the warp storm would cause chaos inside Terra, or that Chaos would attack, and they would be unable to provide support.

Now, they no longer need to worry about that; the Empire's starlight has been rekindled.

If Chaos were to invade Terra, the Empire would absolutely never be able to be lit up.

Makado's message has not yet reached the rift worlds of the warp; it will take a considerable amount of time for it to reach those places. Makado's arrival will deliver the Empire's best news to these border worlds and the darker side of the Empire.

Of course, the Dark Side of the Empire can only see the Star Torch, and their Star Speakers have difficulty establishing direct psionic contact with those on the other side through the Great Rift in the Warp. Even Star Speakers find it difficult to communicate with their counterparts.

The planet Sotaccus.

A hive world of the Empire that is on the verge of becoming a chaotic nest.

Upon learning that the Empire's Star Torch had been relit, although unable to communicate with Terra or the Star Whisperers, the remaining Star Whisperers did their utmost to use their lives to rally the surrounding chapters and armies to protect the Empire's hive planet.

Meanwhile, Hope, Istanbul 5 Worlds, Canto, End of the Dragon, Taurabti, Avar, Attila
A series of worlds, all after the Star Torch was relit.

The era of reclaiming the frontiers for their empire has begun anew.

They were indeed initially stunned by the forces of chaos.

The Chaos faction tore the Milky Way apart, splitting it in two, and then extinguished the Star Torch. As a result, they could no longer navigate using the Star Torch, and the existence of the Great Rift interfered with the transmission of information. They only knew that something had happened to the Empire, but they did not know exactly what had happened.

With the awakening of psychic powers, the Star Speakers went mad, chaos invaded, and demons corrupted.

Numerous planets have encountered the greatest rebellion in history.

This also includes a large number of pirate forces and foreign forces taking advantage of the chaos.

But now, all of that is over.

In the midst of suppression, they re-established a new order, which initially left them bewildered. However, once they realized what was happening, the Empire's powerful corrective force made these chaotic forces understand why the Empire could maintain its resilience despite repeated betrayals and divisions.

Indeed, many people will betray the empire.

This is inevitable.

However, there have always been the empire's most loyal and compassionate warriors who have expanded its territory and defended its homeland.

The planets of the Empire, illuminated by the light of the star torches, have begun their rebellion anew.

This has boosted confidence in a chaotic world that was prepared to give up.

Those who wandered the edges of the world, with the help of the Star Torch, also began to provide support to various worlds again. Even the Space Wolves and Blood Angels chapters in the shadows of the Empire witnessed the relighting of the Empire's Star Torch. However, although the Empire had lit the Star Torch, they still could not communicate with the people within the Empire's Star Court.

The appearance of the Great Rift is like a net separating the dark side of the Empire from the other side, completely severing the connection between the two worlds. This world cannot communicate with the other side, and the other world cannot communicate with this side.

"The Empire's Star Torch has been restored. I wonder what's going on in the Empire now."

"We are temporarily unable to return to the Empire through the Great Rift, but perhaps we can find a safe passage through it."

Crossing the Great Rift is extremely difficult, not only because of the chaotic creatures within it, but also because of the energy tides it generates, which make long-distance travel impossible. Moreover, compared to the Empire, they believe that the Empire's forces are needed to guard this area. The Empire's Star Torches have been relit, signifying that the Empire has already completed its recapture. The next step is to reclaim the Dark Side affected by the Great Rift.

However, they alone cannot reclaim the dark side.

They need the help of the Gamma world.

The neutron feather in the gamma world thoroughly purified the planet, as if it had taken away half of the remaining beam and shut down the weapon's channel.

“We need their help. The technology they use surpasses that of the Empire, and may be a technological relic from the Empire’s golden age. If we can obtain the help of this weapon, it may be better for the Empire to recover its dark side.”

Although the other party most likely doesn't need them at all.

If they could steal it, they definitely would. However, after seeing that the other party was vaguely larger than them, equipped with power armor that seemed to be more sophisticated, and had more combat experience, they decided to take the risk.

The mindset of these combat groups has shifted from support to acquisition, and then to mutual benefit and win-win cooperation.

"Cleaned up. This energy planet doesn't seem to be of much use. Oh well, we've received new instructions from above. This planet is useless, let's just abandon it!"

After purifying the entire planet, the Gamma World discovered that it was of little use to them. They had no shortage of energy, and most of their factories had been corrupted. They could simply drop a few Greenskin spores on the planet and then manage the data to keep the Greenskin population within a reasonable range. They could monitor the planet and strike at any time anyway.

Too many parts of this planet have been corrupted, and only by planting some green plants can we reduce the possibility of this world being taken over by chaos again.

As for humans.

The Gamma World is short of people, so as long as there are people, they will be transported to the Gamma World first.

Why would we send people to be stationed on other planets? It's completely unnecessary.

Moreover, there are still so many races hostile to the Gamma World, and various enemies are trying to break through the absolute magic-suppressing zone of the Gamma World.

The Gamma World is now surrounded by wolves, but thankfully, the focus of the entire universe should now be on the human empire. If all the Xenomorphs knew about Macado's return, the number of Xenomorphs assassinating Macado would increase exponentially.

The Gamma world would then be in a safe state.

True powerhouses don't stand out; instead, they push another powerhouse into the limelight. The Gamma World is already captivating enough; they don't need to be more eye-catching than the Empire. They just need to show others that another, even more captivating, Macardo exists.

Looking at the desolate universe.

Although large fissures have inevitably occurred.

However, the leap that the Gamma world was meant to make has already been completed.

And what remains is to build an even bigger 'pump'.

This requires them to create a stable surrounding environment to facilitate their bombing of planets to obtain mineral resources.

If they could blow up a black hole, they would also decompress the surrounding black hole world.

"Cleanup complete, time to the next world!"

The Minotaur Warband's strategy of establishing its authority has failed.

Everyone, at least everyone on Terra, already knows about Macado's return and the lighting of the Star Torch.

No one could stop Macardo from meeting the Emperor.

On one hand, these Minotaur chapters lacked the strength; on the other hand, the Great Sage Kaul had already restarted his Hades Project, which involved hiding 20,000 loyal Astartes warriors he had trained around the Empire of Terra.

These Astartes are no ordinary Astartes; they have undergone technological modifications. They are original Astartes created through two additional surgeries following the original nineteen surgeries established by the Emperor. They belong to the third generation of Astartes after the first and second generations of Thunder Warriors, and are even more powerful, more excellent, and more perfect original Astartes.

hum!
Pairs of eyes opened in the dimly lit laboratory.

Similarly, in the palace on Terra, the commander of the royal guard, Trajan's bodyguard, was on either side of the emperor, and it was clear that Macardo had already arrived on Terra.
