This Warhammer game is awesome!!

Chapter 235 Let's stab the Emperor to death!

Guilliman frowned upon hearing Qin Yun's plan.

"Never forget my father's lesson, the saint. He acted recklessly and gambled everything, which led to the complete collapse of the situation."

Qin Yun nodded, indicating that he had heeded the Primarch's advice.

"The internet is only one part of the rise of humanity, not the whole of it."

"I won't go all in on the Internet project."

"The Human Empire will always put humanity first, and any technology will only be used to help humanity live a happier life in this dark universe."

The Internet Project was once the Emperor's most valued project.
He believed that as long as the Web existed, humanity could escape the Subspace and gain the opportunity for salvation and ascension.

The Great Expedition and the establishment of the Empire were merely things the Emperor did to develop the online world.

The purpose is simple: to build a network to integrate the resources of all mankind and prevent anyone from causing sabotage.

The emperor never cared about the empire at all; he treated it purely as a tool, intending to abandon it once he was done with it.

Horus was worried that his father hadn't reserved a place for him in the human empire.
This idea is completely unnecessary.

Because there were simply no seats available; no one had a place.

This is also why human empires have so many drawbacks and problems.

Because it was never the primary purpose from the beginning, but rather a tool, a process.
The internet is the result the emperor wanted.

Qin Yun questioned the Emperor's idea that everything would be fine if he just ran an online guild.

The Ancient Spirit Empire also possessed the Net Path, yet it still met a tragic end, and even gave rise to the Slaanesh.

Going back further in time, another race that possessed the Internet of Things yet still went extinct was the Ancient Saints.

The net was created and built by the ancient sages.
They also sowed the seeds of most life in the galaxy.
They are as powerful and wise as gods.

In the end, it was still destroyed by the Star Gods and the out-of-control subspace creatures.

There will always be enemies of one kind or another in this universe.
Does having internet access really mean you can rest easy?

Even if humanity becomes the most powerful civilization in the galaxy, can it truly continue to exist peacefully forever?
The Milky Way is just a remote corner of the universe.
Outside, there are countless other star systems, such as the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and the Andromeda Galaxy.

Even if humanity completely conquers the galaxy,
Who knows what terrifying things might exist beyond the Milky Way?
If the Tyranids can come to the galaxy, why can't the next hostile race to the galaxy come?

Any attempt to solve all problems once and for all will ultimately backfire.

The key to the continuation of a civilization lies in always remaining vigilant and prepared.

Qin Yun's initial motivation for repairing the network was simply to reduce the costs of the empire's commercial trade.

To give the Imperial army greater mobility
It's not some grand project that would allow humanity to rest easy!
Therefore, Qin Yun will not pour all his resources into the Internet Dao project, nor will he put the cart before the horse and push the empire into an abyss of no return for the sake of Internet Dao.

All technology and engineering should serve humanity and the empire.
Rather than the human empire serving a particular project or engineering endeavor.
This approach is completely putting the cart before the horse, only adding to the suffering of the vast majority of the empire's people.
“I hope you will remember my words today, Saint,” Guilliman said. “If we go astray again, human civilization may truly be heading towards destruction.”

"Regent, I have always believed in one thing."

"What?"

Qin Yun's words aroused Guilliman's curiosity.

"That is to give civilization to the years, rather than giving the years to civilization. The future is uncertain, and the only thing we can do is to seize the present."

"No one can truly control the future; doing the present well is the most important thing."

Guilliman, as the Primarch, also possessed astonishing talent and accomplishments in the field of literature.

He easily understood Qin Yun's words about time and civilization, and even empathized with them.

Over the past ten thousand years,
While chaos and aliens may have played a role, the Empire itself also went down the wrong path.

When Guilliman awoke and learned of the Empire's current state, he was filled with despair.

He would rather the empire his father built had been replaced by someone else.

They also did not want to see the absurd actions taken by the people of the Empire in order to prolong the Empire.

They lived purely for the sake of survival, completely abandoning the vitality and dynamism that civilization should possess.

After reaching a consensus, the two discussed the details.

Several hours later, the two sides closed the communication and ended the conversation.

……

In the communications room of Macurag,

"Give civilization to time, rather than time to civilization."

Guilliman stared intently at the gradually dimming communication interface, repeating to himself the words the saint had just spoken.

This statement was like a scalpel, precisely pinpointing the empire's weaknesses.

The empire can no longer operate as it did before, resorting to any means necessary to survive, excessively sacrificing the interests of the lower classes, and treating everyone as a tool.

Human Empire, humans in front, empire behind.

One day, sacrificing the empire for the benefit of humanity would be perfectly justifiable.
Humanity must never be sacrificed for the sake of the empire's survival.

At that moment, Guilliman suddenly thought of something else.

"Sacrifice the Empire for humanity!!"

"Could it be that the Sage intends to replace my father and establish the Third Human Empire?"

"It's a pity Ryan isn't here, otherwise we could have regained our former glory."

Guilliman stroked his chin, lamenting Ryan's absence.

If the sage truly decides to abandon the empire established by his father and build a third empire...
Guilliman would not only not object, but would wholeheartedly support it.

Moreover, his opposition might not even be effective.

The emperor bestowed so many blessings upon the sage, even more favorably upon his own son.
They probably also wanted the sage to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the empire.

Overthrowing everything old and rebuilding a brand new empire might very well be the emperor's idea.

"Now that the Sage has conquered Comoros, once the project to repair the network is completed, the strength of the Human Empire will surely rise again."

"At this rate, it will be only a matter of time before the four Chaos Gods are driven out and peace is restored to the Milky Way."

"After the war is over, I will go to farm and then handcraft a ship to travel through the universe."

Guilliman couldn't help but fantasize about his wonderful future life.

Anyone who desires power should strive for it and fight for it.

Anyway, he doesn't like it.

The universe is so vast, yet I have never been able to see it in my lifetime. Isn't that a regret?

As for why it's called the Third Human Empire...
It is definitely not because he once established a second human empire.
Rather, it was the human empire created by the emperor, which was essentially the second human interstellar regime.

………………

The Battle of Comoros.

“WAAAGH”.

The old captain, the leader of the orcs, roared.

The terrifying sound was like thunder, making the entire city of Comoros rumble.

The old captain was originally an ordinary orc under the command of the raiders—Grod.

Wherever the boss tells him to go, he goes, grabbing whatever he sees, blowing the heads off the enemies, and having a good time.

Until one day, they went to war with humans.

Grod, the leader, had his head chopped off by those traitorous bastards.
The old captain seized the opportunity to defeat his competitors and became the new leader, continuing to lead his crew in the galaxy of WAAAGH.

As time went on, his body grew larger and more resilient.

Originally, the old captain planned to find the two well-known big bosses, the Bonebreaker and the Arsonist, and join them in launching an even grander WAAAGH expedition.

However, under the guidance of Brother Mao, they arrived at the intricate battlefield of the online world.

However, it's quite nice here.

Fighting those shrimps is so much fun!

Those shrimps produced quite a few good things.

The cans also became bigger and more powerful.
There are also various flying Gungat.

All of this made the old captain WAAAGH.
He kept calling for the other orcs to come here.

"Hey guys, charge! Take those shrimps!"

The old captain shouted, waving his hand to signal the boys to jump off the warship and fight the shrimp on land.
Then, the old captain jumped down as well.

As soon as he landed, he grabbed an exaggerated machete and chopped down several shrimp.

"Have all the shrimps gotten rich these days? They're all dressed so well, and they all look like canned goods, just different sizes."

The old captain had fought with shrimp from other places before, but those shrimp were nowhere near as well-equipped as the shrimp before him.
Those poor shrimp only have laser guns and shells.

These shrimps in front of us are all encased in thick armor, with buzzing drones assisting them.

This fighting style is very similar to the blue-skinned enemies the old captain used to encounter, but the firepower is much stronger and the close combat ability is also more powerful than those blue-skinned enemies.

He lifted his foot, then stomped down hard, crushing the head of a shrimp.
A winged shrimp carrying several large cans of shrimp landed in front of the old captain, stopping him from continuing his killing spree.

"WAAAGH!!"

"Kids, charge! Chop these giant cans to pieces!!"

The old captain became excited when he saw the shrimp and ran towards them while shouting.

The boys behind him shouted and rushed forward in a swarm. Qin Yun stared at the green-skinned orcs, his gaze filled with icy killing intent.

After the communication with Guilliman ended,
He held a meeting and negotiations with Eldraar and other Eldar high-ranking officials, and reached a new treaty.

The Eldar and the Human Empire will openly form an alliance, establishing a mutual defense and offensive cooperation agreement.
When either side is invaded by Chaos or Aliens, the other side must unconditionally send troops to help.

Both sides will share a portion of their technology.

The repaired network is also open to use by the Eldar of the Ark; the Human Empire must treat them equally.

The two sides will establish a joint court to adjudicate each other's border transgressions, resorting to the law rather than war whenever possible.

In addition, there are many other clauses.

Committed to ensuring that the two sides form an alliance and establish diplomatic relations on an equal footing.

By taking advantage of these terms that were clearly favorable to the Ark Eldar, Qin Yun successfully obtained the cultivation technology for the network materials.

With this technology, repairing network channels will no longer be a pipe dream.

After the negotiations concluded, Qin Yun planned to completely conquer Comoros and drive the orcs away as well.

So when the orc leader, the old captain, launched another attack, he led players such as Zhan Shuai and Jujiro into the battlefield to carry out a decapitation strike.

"Still so happy, you idiots, I've brought you here." Jujiro raised his scepter and began to gather spiritual energy.

The warrior activated his sword, his eyes fixed on the orc boy charging alongside the orc leader.

Adjust your breathing to prepare for the upcoming battle.

"For the God Emperor!" The twisted man raised his warhammer, which was covered in arcs of electricity, and charged forward first.

His movements were like the sounding of a battle horn.
The players chanted various slogans and fought against the green-skinned orcs.

Qin Yun, on the other hand, faced off against the orc chieftain—the old captain.

The old captain was much larger than an ordinary green-skinned orc, standing as tall as a two-story building.

His muscles were bulging, his face was ferocious, and he was wearing an exaggerated set of heavy armor. A primitive totem was stuck on the frame behind him.

His left hand was an enormous claw, the tip covered in blood and bits of flesh, a testament to the countless lives lost at the hands of this orc chieftain.

When it roars, it reveals a mouthful of sharp steel teeth.

When it runs, the ground shakes, which shows how heavy its body is.

Qin Yun, holding a spear in one hand and a longsword in the other, faced the old captain.

Zheng~
The weapons clashed, producing a resounding clang.

The blast wave spread along with the shock wave.

"Shrimp with wings, that's really rare."

The old captain grinned, "Watch how I break off your wings and use them for barbecue later."

Qin Yun didn't speak, but used his sword to block the opponent's broadsword and then used his spear to cleave away the opponent's claws.

The sound of steel clashing rang out continuously, and sparks flew with each collision.

The more the old captain fought, the more excited he became.
It's been a long time since I've had such an exhilarating battle.

The cheers of Brother Mao Er rang in his ears, encouraging him to tear open the winged shrimp in front of him.

Qin Yun remained calm and composed as he steadily confronted the older captain, who was even larger than him.
The opponent's strength was astonishing, and with the protection of the WAAAGH force field, many methods were ineffective against him.

But as time went on, his advantage gradually increased.

The spear and sword in his hands continued to inflict wounds on the old captain, making him increasingly violent.

"Go to hell, you shrimp."

The old captain's eyes were bloodshot as he swung his massive claws, intending to tear Qin Yun to pieces.

Qin Yun dodged the attack, then seized an opening in the orc chieftain's defenses, thrusting his spear forward with a fierce strike.
The spear, crackling with electricity, easily pierced the orc chieftain's armor and tore through his flesh.

The old captain stared wide-eyed at the spear that had completely disappeared into his body, unable to believe he had lost.

Qin Yun didn't say much, and with a single swing of his sword, he severed his head.

Blood gushed out, and the headless corpse knelt on the ground with a dull thud.

With the old captain gone, the orc army suffered a brief collapse.

The human forces, who had been waiting for a long time, swarmed out, seizing the opportunity to strike a fatal blow to the fleeing enemy.

The orcs were routed, suffering heavy casualties and forced to flee into the intricate web.

Brother Mao looked disappointed and turned his attention to other battlefields, looking for new training targets.

They had originally planned to train the old captain.

I never expected it to be so easy; my head was chopped off in just a few strokes.

The orcs were routed, and the Battle of Comoros came to an end.

After arranging the subsequent reconstruction work in Comoros and assigning Little Foggrim to oversee the network,

Qin Yun then led his troops back to Terra.

News of the victory spread rapidly online, causing a frenzy among the people of the empire.

“You little black devils, step forward and speak. Who said that the human empire shouldn’t provoke the Dark Eldar?”

"Tactical lean back.jpg, this is what it means to punish those who offend the Empire, no matter how far away they are. Hahaha, Dark Eldar, what kind of little punks dare to provoke us."

"........."

Upon learning of the return of the punitive expeditionary force, the eagerly awaiting citizens of the empire flocked to the port.

As soon as the warship entered the port, a deafening cheer resounded through the air.

The priests, along with the choir, sang praises of Qin Yun and the many heroes of the empire.

A wide avenue was laid out on the port platform with a red carpet.
The guards, clad in power armor and led by law enforcement officers, maintained order at the scene, preventing the fanatical crowd from rushing forward.

The Imperial Guards, armed with halberds, stood in rows on both sides of the road.

The cheers reached their peak when Qin Yun, the players, and the imperial heroes emerged from the warship.
The excited crowd waved their hands, and countless flowers were scattered down.

“Sage, you are the savior of mankind.”

"Praise the saints, praise the heroes of the empire."

"So handsome, love you."

"Sage, have a child with me."

"........."

Zhan Shuai and other players waved to the crowd, beaming with joy.

The emotional value of this game is truly unmatched by any other game.

After every battle, this is the part I enjoy the most.

After the cheers subsided slightly,

Qin Yun then stood on the suspended metal platform and addressed the people.

"We have won another victory, defeated an enemy that was once thought to be invincible, captured Comoros, and rescued the trapped people."

"And this glory of victory is not just for me alone, but belongs to everyone."

"Whether you are a brave soldier or a factory worker, you have all contributed to this war."

"This victory was won by the Empire, by the collective efforts of everyone. Unity makes us invincible, unity allows us to despise our enemies, and unity will surely lead us to glory once again."

"Citizens of the Empire, my compatriots, my brothers and sisters, cheer for victory!"

"Tomorrow will be better, and the human empire will defeat all its enemies."

Cheers erupted like a tidal wave, and the crowd clapped enthusiastically, their faces beaming with excitement.

After the celebration,
Qin Yun began calculating the rewards for the players.

Due to a series of unexpected events, the original mission of simply retrieving the hero's remains has turned into a battle to capture Comoros.

Related rewards will also be settled together.

Qin Yun took charge and increased the task rewards.
The top 200 players on the war leaderboard can enter the throne room to pay homage to the emperor.

The top 100 can play as the Imperial Guard.

The top ten can initiate a blood game.

The first-place winner will serve as the Tribunal, personally commanding a contingent of Imperial Guards to suppress the Blood Game.

This decision delighted the players, who exclaimed that the operators were conscientious and would criticize them less in the future.

"Haha, here I come to assassinate the emperor."

"Nothing is true, everything is permitted. I am 007, I am just a heartless killer."

"If the emperor does not die, how can the empire be saved? I will dedicate 1,000 percent of my energy to accomplish this great task."

"Brothers, let's stab the Emperor to death!"

Trajan stared wide-eyed at the Chosen Ones who were excited about the possibility of assassinating the Emperor.

Are these guys really loyal?

Why do they all get more excited than the Chaos Traitors when they hear about the possibility of assassinating the Emperor?

PS: Another 5 words. There will be another update tonight, but I can't say the exact time.
