Warhammer: Filial Piety Makes Power

Chapter 146 Beauty is only worthy of the strong

"Russ, you went in with your left foot first, are you unhappy with me?"

Upon suddenly hearing the Emperor ask him this question, the Wolf King's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and the surrounding Imperial Guards also turned their heads, pricking up their ears to watch the drama unfold.

“Father, you know me. I am your most filial son. Even if you asked me to kill that treacherous minister Makado, I would not flinch.”

"Wait... no, didn't you just say I had good thick rice? Get over here!"

The emperor's reasoning was a bit far-fetched. Compared to this old man with a pointed head who always liked to use corporal punishment, Ruth suddenly felt that his father's previous behavior was much better; at least he wouldn't beat him.

Ruth, who had been slapped for no reason, stood up obediently and couldn't help but think of Mordred. If his second brother had been there, he definitely wouldn't have been beaten up. After all, it would have been easier for his good second brother to beat him up, and he would have attracted most of the hatred.

Subspace travel is never a pleasant experience; there will always be some unpleasant creatures who can't resist the temptation to try it out.

But even a little glutton knows when to stop. With the big golden guy around, the demons will just scatter and run away, never letting the cursed one taste the sweetness.

However, in order to make a living, the demons also set their sights on the Emperor, which is basically manifested in following behind the Emperor Dream to pick up trash and collect the scraps of those crushed by the cold sun. After all, even a mosquito is still meat, and it's not shameful to do it for the sake of making a living!

This matter is briefly mentioned in "The Encyclopedia of Warp Entities That Even Oglin Can Understand," and together with "The Education Method That Even Makes Oglin Count to 100," it is known as a treasure of Atlas culture, a treasure that Tzeentch dreams of obtaining.

Unfortunately, these two books, one collected by the emperor and the other revered as a sacred object by the Iron Warriors, were not so easily obtained.

Out of caution, after receiving a request for assistance from the First Legion, the Emperor did not rush to the scene, but instead returned to Mars to retrieve a weapon.

The Labyrinth of Eternal Night is the name of this weapon. It contains a fragment of a star god called the Void Dragon, whose origin is quite mysterious. No matter how Ruth asked, the Emperor refused to say anything, and instead told him a little story.

The story was so absurd that Lemanrus couldn't help but say that the so-called dragon-slaying youth was probably just showing off his repressed feelings, which is why he made up such an unreliable story.

If a medieval knight could traverse the void in his physical form, defeat a dragon on horseback, and seal it deep within Mars, then Lemanrus would be a creator god.

This must be a third-rate fantasy story that only an idiot could come up with. Father, please don't be fooled!

Ruth, being outspoken, said whatever came to mind, and as a result, he was beaten up by the Emperor every day for various reasons, leaving the Wolf King helpless and beginning to miss Mordred terribly.

Fortunately, the Wolf King's bad days are finally over. The fleet is about to leave the warp and join the four legions. Ruth, who has been holding back his anger for a long time, decided to kill a few more aliens to vent his anger. If he kept holding it in any longer, he would really become a stupid dog.

With the Geller force field shutting down and the outer armor opening, the crew, who had been adrift for many days, finally entered the physical universe. But as soon as they arrived, they were greeted by a rather bizarre scene.

"Have we not left the warp yet?"

In the space graveyard littered with shipwrecks, a large, green, and fleshy living planet, Pig-like, is charging forward and crashing into the last battle moon, blasting up countless pieces of debris and scattering chaotic broadcasts everywhere.

"Don't run, you damned bastards, I'm going to kill you all! You've already met your demise! Woof woof woof."

"Kill them all, leave no one alive! This must not be known to anyone else, Zabril, bring him to trial!"

"Brothers, this is bad! Guilliman has gone rash again! The flanking fleet has been surrounded! Come and help! Come and help!"

The chaotic and noisy communication network left Space Wolf completely bewildered. Wasn't it supposed to be that the Randan alien would disrupt communications? Wasn't it supposed to wait for us to form an encirclement? And what was going on with that living planet that looked exactly like an alien?

With his keen eyesight, Lemanrus could even spot the giant lizards and Atlass shouting and yelling among the garbage and debris; the entire sector was in complete chaos.

Their opponents were a group of humanoid aliens with tentacles on their heads, and... and isn't that the Angel of Elysium?
Everyone instinctively looked at Emperor, after all, the best-selling model of Elysium Angel needs no further explanation.

However, at this moment, the emperor's face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping with water. "What do you mean, 'I have come to ask, but there is nothing more to say'? My son is also in league with the Japanese." The big golden man had already seen a large number of blasphemous things that looked quite similar to himself.

"Tired, destroy!"

It's no wonder the Legion went so far as to destroy that Abomination, Mordred discovered even more blasphemous creatures after destroying it. They had Abominations in almost every Primarch form.

This is no ordinary alien; it dares to collude with the Abomination Intelligence. We must strike hard.

Once a person dies, their life is over. For the sake of the Legion's honor, the Randan Xenomorphs must be exterminated.

Because of Mordred, the last battle moon also destroyed the Void Shield Array in the explosion, and the entire starry sky was filled with debris.

Even so, the Ran Dan alien still has the power to fight.

Deep within the fortress, a towering 5-meter-tall Randan alien surveyed its surroundings. All the Randan lords whose gaze fell upon it lowered their heads, not daring to meet its eyes.

As the Imperial War Commander, Athena held these war lords in particularly low regard. A mere temporary setback had caused them such anxiety; they were truly unworthy of Her Majesty's trust. "You bunch of good-for-nothings! If that frivolous Venus hadn't been ambushed, we would never have had our battle moon destroyed by that monster."

"You're all trash! How am I supposed to explain this to my mother?"

The war lords, who were relentlessly berated by the war commander, could only endure it. Although Venus, who was also a war commander, had died, if they, the low-ranking lords, dared to interrupt, they would be blasted to dust!

Some people are born in Rome, while others are destined to be slaves their whole lives. This saying is vividly illustrated in Randan society.

Every Randan alien is assigned to a specific social class before birth; warriors are warriors, artisans are artisans, and the strictest hierarchical system is implemented, with the entire society resembling a pyramid structure. At the very top of the pyramid is the Randan Queen.

Since the end of the Eternal Night Era, His Majesty, with his extraordinary wisdom, created the Randan race, bringing the spark of wisdom to all living beings.

In just a few years, the Empress quelled the war and completely unified the home planet.

But the reason why a king is called a king is because he has supreme ambition. Unifying the mother planet is not the end, but only the beginning of glorious evolution. Only by conquering the endless sea of ​​stars can the greatness of the Ran Dan race be explained.

In order to better control the legions and to better conquer the galaxy, the Empress even sacrificed herself, personally giving birth to five Imperial Warmasters, becoming a beacon illuminating the empire's path forward.

These five generals led the imperial fleet to conquer cities and strongholds for the Empress, bringing one victory after another.

With its powerful influence, the empire was welcomed with utmost sincerity wherever it went. Its vibrant vitality was like the flourishing of all things, and even the lowest-ranking commoners would stand tall with pride upon seeing it.

Thanks to its institutional advantages, the empire has made breakthroughs in technology and military strength, and everyone is working hard and dedicating themselves to making the empire great again under the banner of managerial democracy.

Until that day 20 years ago, Ran Dan encountered the ignorant and foolish human empire. The two sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle, but in the end, due to the disparity in military strength, Ran Dan was defeated by the humans.

However, victory and defeat are common in war. The Queen did not blame the soldiers. Instead, she found new partners and launched a glorious expedition, vowing to wipe out these damned human aliens.

Faced with the war commander's reprimand, Lord Ran Dan could only silently endure it, after all, loyalty was the best reward!

Seeing these weak lords, whom she could not rely on at all, Athena was furious. In order to protect her mother's honor, she had to turn the tide.

After a long and arduous battle, Athena has come to realize the problem: the empire's proud assimilation ability is completely ineffective against those strange creatures who call themselves Atlas, and infiltration operations are a joke.

These damned black-armored warriors also possess a psychic network; once inside, they will be reverse-contaminated, turning into screaming lunatics. They might even be killed by strange subdimensional entities that have come to investigate, leaving them with no choice but to fight head-on.

The problem is that these giant black cans are all incredibly cunning and refuse to engage in direct combat. Each Atlas is surrounded by tens of thousands of lizardmen.

As for the human legions, they've learned their lesson and abandoned the ground battlefield, instead hiding in their warships and firing snipers.

If the cannon fodder cannot be enslaved, the scales of victory will only tip in favor of the other side as time goes on. What's even more despicable are those damned giant lizards; there are just too many of them. Kill one and two more will pop up.

And this thing will grow bigger and bigger, and its combat power will become stronger and stronger. It has transformed from a small piece of trash who could cut a stick in two at the beginning into a big guy wearing heavy scrap metal armor and wielding strange guns.

Especially the giant lizard with the strange golden hair; even when eight war lords joined forces and cut off his head, they still couldn't eliminate this lizard leader named Li Gou Dan.

Just one day later, the lizard leader named Li Gou Dan was put into fearlessness and returned to the battlefield, becoming even bigger, greener, and a bit red.

"I am incompetent in both classical and vernacular Chinese, and I have brought shame and disgrace to the country. It seems I must come out of seclusion."

"Since we can't win by attrition, let's go for a boarding maneuver and decapitation strike. As long as we kill the enemy's high-ranking general, it will definitely cause chaos among the enemy. We must find a high-value target."

Upon activating the holographic projection, the lords of Randan immediately began advising the war commander, selecting suitable targets:

"A 50-meter-tall monster? Damn it, how is this thing still alive? Call in artillery fire and blow it to bits."

"Boarding enemy warships? No way, we'd be shot down by gunfire before we even got there."

"Wait, what is this?"

As they watched the golden behemoth charging forward on the ground battlefield in the holographic image, already creating distance between itself and the rear, all the Lords of Ran Dan nodded in approval.

"Your Highness, according to intelligence, this is the false emperor of the Human Empire. If we kill this high-value target, then we..."

"No, I don't need to kill her, I want her alive. Such a beauty is only fit for the strong. I want to offer her to my mother!"
