Warhammer: How do you get the Tremor-Tremor Fruit at the start of a Hextech game?

"Tax evasion."

Qin Mo murmured.

He hadn't expected the governor of the world of Kronos to be so "bold," refusing to pay taxes for a full two hundred and thirty years—a move that could be considered a traitor to the empire.

"It's not tax evasion."

Eileencia guessed what Qin Mo was thinking. With a wave of her hand, a light screen sealed off the entire tent.

Qin Mo was startled. He sensed a surge of spiritual energy, an extremely sophisticated technique for utilizing spiritual energy.

He hadn't expected that the judge was actually such a powerful psychic.

Eileencia stared at Qin Mo: "I paid a considerable price. I discovered a secret in the Tribunal's top-secret records: as early as 230 years ago, this world of Kronos Nest City had already been placed under an extermination order..."

Qin Mo's eyes widened to their limit as he stared at Eileencia in disbelief, unable to believe what the judge had said.

An extermination order is an action to destroy the entire planet's biosphere and all life on Earth.

Once a planet faces a strategic threat that cannot be contained by conventional means, such as alien invasion, mutation, plague, or even chaotic pollution, an extermination order will be issued as the Empire's last resort to prevent the threat from spreading to other planets.

There are many ways to issue an extermination order, such as orbital bombing, viral bombs, cyclone torpedoes, Sleimabo, or Titus, but no matter which method is used, it means the permanent "death" of this world.

What exactly did Kronos Hive do? Or what happened? What kind of threat exists in this world that warrants the Empire issuing an extermination order to contain it?

"This world did not actively evade taxes. In fact, from the Empire's perspective, this world has long been destroyed and is a dead land, so there is naturally no need to pay taxes."

Eileencia continued, "But with Frynn's help, I discovered that the extermination order was actually stopped, only the record of the stoppage was completely deleted."

Qin Mo's brain completely crashed: the order to impose extermination was then stopped, and the record of the stoppage was deleted. Wasn't this just like completely erasing the world of Kronos Nest from the archives?

He quickly realized the benefits of this approach.

As a vast political entity spanning the entire Milky Way galaxy, the Empire of Man possesses millions of stars, and even through the subspace, it would take a great deal of time and effort to achieve interstellar travel.

Given the Empire's efficiency, unless deliberately sought out, a remote world that has been completely erased from the star map archives has a very high probability of escaping the attention of the Empire's central authorities.

It seems that someone deliberately wanted to hide the world of Kronos.

"Although the record of the intervention has been deleted, there are still clues in the Mechanicus's records. They also have a backup file of the use of the Exorcism Weapon," Furna continued.

Qin Mo couldn't help but look at Funina. At this moment, he was more willing to trust a meticulous mechanical priest.

"The records show that 230 years ago, a genetic sage named 'Taranis-9' did indeed use a 'viral bomb' under the extermination order of the Chronos hive, but afterwards, all his records disappeared."

Funina's words confirmed that what the judge had said was true.

Qin Mo paused for a moment, allowing his frantically working brain to process this unbelievable information. After a long while, he finally asked:

"What are you telling me all this for?"

Regardless of the truth, this information represents enormous trouble and danger. Qin Mo has always had only one goal: to survive in this cold and desperate Warhammer universe.

Qin Mo had no intention of stepping into danger so easily.

Eileencia and Frynn exchanged a glance, and finally Frynn spoke with a bitter tone: "Due to our discovery, the Sector Inquisition has conducted a further in-depth assessment of Kronos Hive, and they believe that this unknown threat is intolerable."

"The extermination order to drop the 'virus bomb' has been restarted, and the destruction will take place in one month."

Qin Mo opened his mouth, but could not utter another word.

He never expected to be told his death date so easily, and that the cause of death would be so clear and so vicious.

The viral bomb releases a special virus known as the "cannibal," which can spread rapidly and destroy all the cells it infects until all life on the planet is reduced to a flammable mixture of biochemical sludge and gas.

Then, in a firestorm, the entire world will be completely destroyed.

Qin Mo reacted quickly, grabbed the gold card, and turned to walk out of the tent.

He needed to leave the world of Kronos before the extermination order was issued, but the next moment, Irenecia's voice rang out again, sending him plummeting into an icy abyss:

"The Inquisition has sealed off all interstellar routes in the world. No starship will leave the world of Kronos before the extermination order is issued."

Qin Mo turned around and looked coldly at Eileencia.

Eileencia turned around and took out two items from a hidden compartment on the table: a small sphere with needles on it on the left and another scroll of information on it on the right.

"Now you have two choices."

Eileencia first pointed to the needle-like sphere on the left and said, "You can use this memory erasure device to forget everything we just told you and spend your last month carefree."

"Or, you could take a look at another scroll. Out of respect for a genetic sage, if we can find out what that unknown threat in Kronos Hive is within a month, we might be able to persuade the Sector Inquisition to reassess and thus stop the extermination order."

After a pause, Eileencia continued:

"Father Furna highly praised your outstanding performance in the bottom nest. If you are willing to help, you will not only have a chance to survive, but if the truth is found, I will, on behalf of the Inquisition, give you an unimaginable gift."

Qin Mo took a deep breath. He had no other choice. He picked up the scroll and slowly unrolled it.

It contains the investigation records of the Mechanic Gene Sage named "Taranis-9" in the world of Kronos.

He established an organization called the "Ring Council" in the city of Kronos, responsible for investigating and eliminating some unknown threat, but the scroll did not record the final results of the elimination.

Information about the organization's members was also erased, leaving only a strange mark.

A mark that looks like a twisted snake.

Qin Mo stared at the mark, feeling it looked very familiar. Suddenly, he remembered that it was the mark engraved on the syringes when he encountered the Genestealers' cult holding a religious ceremony in the Bottom Nest.

"This is..." Qin Mo fumbled for the scroll.

Eileencia's voice rang out at the right moment: "The white-clad girl you brought out from the bottom nest is actually the research legacy of the 'Ring Council'. We extracted some chaotic information from her memories, and the useful information was recorded on it."

Eileencia walked to Qin Mo's side and touched the mark:

"Interestingly, this mark represents a very powerful noble family in Upper Nest, the Valen family, whose clan is also known as the 'Alchemy Serpent'."
