Warhammer: Filial Piety Makes Power

Chapter 313 Nothing Happened
030.M32,

The Death of Hope: On the last day of the new year, Pope Loka began the ritual to awaken the Lord of Mankind.

He then delivered a speech in the presence of Guilliman, Ferrus, Corax, Dorn, as well as the Sealkeeper Macardo and the Grand Marshal Waldo.

Thanks to the empire's rapid development, and after a thousand years of repeated trials, the empire finally found a way to make the Divine Spire operate at high power.

That is to build churches around the Divine Seal Spire, relying on the psionic projection formed by His Majesty the Divine Emperor in the subspace as an energy source.

Although this behavior may seem offensive to the Divine Emperor, Pope Loka said that if His Majesty's spirit in heaven could see that he could contribute to the Empire, then he would be pleased.

These remarks were met with unanimous praise from the entire empire, and while continuing to believe in the God Emperor, people also began to enjoy the various conveniences brought by the Divine Seal Network.

To preserve this sacred moment, believers also started a live stream on the Divine Seal website.

As the New Year's bells rang, under the watchful eyes of countless believers, twelve golden beams of light appeared behind Luo Jia, lifting her to the Golden Throne.

At this moment, humanity's devout faith in the emperor reached its peak, and countless golden petals fell from the sky, as if singing praises to the arrival of this saint.

Looking at his sister floating in mid-air, Guilliman was very envious. He also wanted to have such cool wings, which reminded him of his brother, Saint Gilles.

"Huh? Dorn, speaking of which, how many wings does Luojia have again?"

"Twelve! But I've always thought these weren't wings, but rather some kind of energy tentacles..."

Dorn started rambling again, explaining to Guilliman the 13 different types of wings and tentacles, but Guilliman wasn't listening at all. Instead, he felt a sense of unease, as if something was shouting in his ear, accompanied by a dog barking.

"Stop her!"

"What?"

This time Guilliman truly heard it, but hearing the sound didn't mean he could understand it. And it was this hesitation that would cause Guilliman to regret it for the rest of his life.

When Luo Jia's palm touched the Emperor, her originally pure golden wings instantly turned black and burst into flames, burning away her priest's robes and revealing the black dress underneath.

"Romus, Remus, where are you? This isn't peace, no, you've killed my child."

In an instant, the first to react was Makado, where a sudden warp storm instantly formed, directly severing the divine seal signal of the entire Holy Terra. But even so, it was too late.

This behavior seemed to have angered some being, and a jet-black greatsword shot out, pinning Macado to the ground.

As soon as the destructive power appeared, Luo Jia and all her offspring went into a frenzy and began indiscriminate attacks.

In order to control their crazed sister, the Primarchs were forced to attack Luo Jia, but they found that they were completely unable to control her.

Luo Jia was there to kill them, but they didn't want to hurt their sisters. Because of this situation where they were constantly restrained, Felus was beheaded with a single sword strike and became a flying head barbarian once again.

Left with no other choice, Dorn had to pick up his shield again and become a tank to hold the line. In the end, he was only able to control Luo Jia thanks to a sneak attack by the Raven King and Guilliman.

However, the price was that Maka was seriously injured and fell to the ground, and Luojia was burned into a crispy chicken by the black flames, and the black flames could not be extinguished at all.

Fortunately, there were still 3 Fearless machines left. Makado was sent back to the palace for the second time, while Luojia was also buried in the Fearless. Compared to Makado's injuries, Luojia fell into a deep sleep.

Before being buried in the sarcophagus, Macardo grabbed Guilliman's hand and addressed the four remaining Primarchs:
"Be careful, He will absolutely not let this go!"

032.M32,

Reign of Chaos: After two years of cleanup, most of the Word Bearers who had gone mad were eliminated. Only a very small number of Word Bearers retained basic sanity, but they were also imprisoned in the Stasis Field for containment.

However, the effects of the Word Bearers' madness went far beyond that, with rebellions breaking out in many religious circles.

The divine seals created by Atlas were of such exceptional quality that even after a thousand years of wear and tear, and despite Makado immediately cutting off the signal, the live broadcast still reached the entire empire. People discovered that the demigods they had worshipped for millennia were not as benevolent as they had imagined, but rather monsters more terrifying than demons.

Therefore, Guilliman had to bring in the Space Wolves to carry out a large-scale crackdown.

Furthermore, it directly severed the connection base stations of the Shenyin Network, causing the Shenyin Network, which had already restored its cross-star region connection, to revert to its original mode.

At the same time, a massive memory erasure operation sweeping across the entire empire was fully launched.

That night, the four Primarchs held a private meeting, and the previously sealed Atlas data was brought out again.

For a full week, the four Primarchs stayed put, analyzing the data and gradually expanding their search, eventually uncovering a large number of Atlas research reports inside the Law of Truth.

It details Atlas's blasphemous experiments on a certain planet, which involved using hypnosis and mind imprints to create warp entities usable by the Legion.

This is no different from the situation where Luo Jia suddenly went mad.

To this end, Corax secretly led the Ravenguard to Colkith to investigate, while the existing Word Bearers were also dismantled, and all information about Atlas was destroyed.

035.M32,

Chaos Strikes: After a thousand years of peace, the empire has gradually forgotten about the demons, the great enemy of chaos.

But as if it were pre-arranged, as the Word Bearers went mad, a large number of demon invasions broke out simultaneously within the Empire, and the Storm Starfield was also harassed by the Dark Eldar.

The most crucial event was the outbreak of a rebellion on Raven King's home planet that affected the entire sector, with even the Dark Raven Guard among the participants.

053.M32,

Chaos Expedition: Faced with repeated attacks from demons, the Imperium of Man decides to launch a counterattack. The Iron Hand and the Death Guard assemble simultaneously, led by Feralus, to venture deep into the Eye of Terror in search of the missing Primarch.

Persistence pays off. Through numerological calculations passed down through generations of the Death Guard, the fleet discovered the fleeing Coz in a world deep within the Eye of Fear.

Along with the human fleet appeared the Tzeentch army, whose origins were unknown.

Koz disappeared again amidst the chaotic battle.

057.M32,

Dark Crusade: While the Imperial Warmasters are away on campaign, a force known as the Black Legion begins to emerge deep within the Eye of Terror.

The leader was Abaddon, the former son of Horus and one of the Council of Four Kings, and he held a cursed sword called Drachnien.

After discovering he had lost his memory, Abaddon decided to avenge his father and launched the First Black Crusade.

However, due to the existence of the Primarch, Abaddon did not penetrate deep into the Empire, but instead retreated decisively after attacking the outskirts of the Eye of Terror.

066.M32,

Darkmoon Cult: As Tranquility became the homeworld of the Blood Raven Chapter, a large number of residents from Badab began to migrate to Tranquility, and a religious group called the Darkmoon Cult was born.

Although some claim that the Darkmoon Cult is a shoe cult and that its leader is a pointy-eared alien, no one cares about this tiny religion.

Meanwhile, in the distorted void deep within the vortex, emerald green lightning began to appear frequently.

Nothing happened!
