Warhammer: Expedition to the Multiverse from 30k

"You may not know that since you have been running around outside, the three great Primarchs have officially announced the establishment of the Second Empire after the arrival of Lord Sanguinius."

His eyes were full of enthusiasm and excitement, but he didn't dare to look directly at Luo Xi, appearing extremely respectful.

"Lord Sanguinius serves as the Regent of the Second Empire. He is our new Emperor, ruling over all five hundred worlds."

"Lord Ryan Jonson will be the Lord Protector. He will have the power to mobilize all the military forces of the Five Hundred Worlds."

"The Lord of Five Hundred Worlds, the great Lord Roboute Guilliman, has been appointed as the Imperial Governor, responsible for coordinating the normal operation of the Empire."

Luo Xi was stunned. It had only been a short time since he went out, and this was already the Second Empire?

The mortal official continued, "The Imperial Governor and Imperial Regent have personally decreed that you are the new Vice-Governor, assisting Lord Guilliman in handling Imperial affairs."

"Come on, please follow me. They have been informed of your return."

Luo Xi's heart was numb. Guilliman, you plotted against me!

Lieutenant Governor of the Second Empire.

As soon as Luo Xi landed from the Red Alert's corridor bridge, he learned this shocking news.

"Answer me, what time is it now? I just went to the eastern part of the galaxy, why has Macragge changed so drastically?"

He even suspected that there was a problem with the webway, causing him to travel to a new time node.

The mortal official remained respectful. The lord in front of him was once the Primarch's personal advisor, but now he had a new identity.

In terms of status, Roche is only below Regent Sanguinius, Lord Protector Lion's Johnson, and Imperial Viceroy Guilliman.

The first three are all Primarchs, and only Roche is a pure mortal, which also means that Roche is the mortal representative with the highest status in the entire Extreme Star Domain at the moment.

But why does Governor Luo Xi look a little unhappy?

His brain circuits worked quickly and he came to a more reasonable conclusion: perhaps Lord Luo Xi was too shocked and excited and was temporarily unable to adapt to the change in his identity.

After all, it is such an honor to be recognized by the three Primarchs!

"My Lord, it is now 009.M31. Our own empire of the Five Hundred Worlds will flourish under your leadership."

Hearing this time, Luo Xi breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down temporarily.

During his absence, it seemed that Sanguinius also came to Macragge, and Guilliman, who had been hesitant about establishing the Second Empire, quickly put him on the throne.

"Now that things have come to this, I will go meet them first. Nobi Guilliman, ah Nobi Guilliman, you put such a big hat on my head while I was away, I have to settle the score with you!"

Roche felt as if his eyes were darkening when he had the opportunity to take on another position and title. He already had enough things to do, and now Guilliman had given him a bunch of tasks.

Originally he was only responsible for matters such as technological creation, but now, the deputy governor is not just helping the governor and cleaning up his mess.

In a trance, he saw Guilliman sitting on the mountain of documents, waving to him, indicating that there was a small stool nearby where he could sit.

Who wants to work overtime with Guilliman until the end of the world?

The mortal official only saw that the deputy governor's face was like spilled sauce, vinegar and tea, changing in an instant, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

As expected of the Vice-Governor of the Empire, he has such great skills in cultivating his Qi that he doesn't even show an ecstatic expression.

I really need to continue to hone my skills. If I can learn one-tenth of Governor Roche's skills, I think I will be able to climb to the position of planetary governor.

I admire you.

If Luo Xi knew what the official next to him was thinking, he would probably be furious. This was not a good job at all. It was clearly a bigger pit that he needed to fill.

"The man next to me is the representative of the Eldar, the prophet of the Ulthwe Ark, Eldrad Ulthlan. He will sign a covenant with us on behalf of the Eldar."

"Report to the Primarchs. This will be a formal meeting."

Uslan followed Luo Xi. Although the appearance of the elves was very similar to humans, their tall stature and pointed ears clearly showed that they were aliens.

"The Eldar?" The mortal official pondered over the term. Logically speaking, it was impossible for an alien to set foot on the territory of Macragge, but the one who brought him here was the newly appointed Deputy Governor of the Empire.

Never mind. It's not his business to worry about.

If I offend Governor Roshi during our first meeting, it will be difficult in the future.

Under the guidance of the officials, Luo Xi and Uslan took the space elevator from low-Earth orbit to the surface of Macragge.

Looking down from the sky, the city of Macragge was filled with cheers and the wide streets were crowded with people parading and celebrating. They were still celebrating the birth of their own empire.

"It's a pity that you came back a little late, Governor General. The Imperial Regent ascended the throne in Macragge three days ago. I will never forget that scene for the rest of my life."

The official was still muttering on the side, and after hearing his vivid description, Luo Xi also saw that historic moment.

Three days ago, Macragge seemed to be radiating light, and the tall buildings and spires, as well as the ancient church buildings, were shrouded in a sacred golden color.

The sky was full of shuttling spaceships, busy working for the newly established empire.

All the streets were crowded with people. People from all walks of life put down their work and took to the streets to celebrate the establishment of the new empire under the thunderous roar of the six war horns left by the ancient war king.

A war parade more grandiose than the previous one to welcome the Coming of the Lion slowly unfolded, with the three legions of Astartes gathering for the parade, the Mechanicus sending more Titans, and the mortal auxiliary forces showing their heroic spirit far superior to before.

The three Primarchs stood high above the dome of the Titan's Gate. Under the gaze of everyone, Guilliman took Sanguinius' right hand and raised the new Emperor's hand to the sky.

The Lord of Five Hundred Worlds was surrounded by two angel brothers, who stood side by side and slowly turned so that everyone could see their faces clearly. The majestic wings of Sanguinius set off the two Primarchs, just like the double-headed eagle emblem of the Empire.

Luo Xi had to admit that even through other people's descriptions, the picture that emerged in his mind was enough to make his heart surge.

"Why is there no physical record? Photos? Videos? Holographic projections? Why aren't there even paintings or statues?"

"This is a joint order from the three lords. Lord Guilliman strictly forbids any chronicler to record this incident. We don't understand why. It's such a pity." The mortal official replied helplessly.

Roche immediately understood that Guilliman had a trick up his sleeve. If he was really sure that the empire was safe, then the Second Empire would become an empire that would not be remembered, and of course no evidence could be left behind.

Entering the Primarch's inner court, oh no, now this place has been converted into the imperial palace of the Second Empire.

Everywhere were mortal artisans and priests of the Mechanicum, working on massive machines to renovate and decorate the Primarch's inner chamber to meet Imperial standards.

The bustling crowd made the inner court, which was originally heavily guarded, seem particularly lively. A large number of Ultramarines patrolled around proudly. Roxi saw a sense of pride and glory in these Astartes that was different from the past.

It is a very special feeling. The warriors are still the same warriors, but their mental outlook and aura are completely different.

Grod, the leader of the Ever-Victorious Army, came to greet Roche's arrival. His huge power armor was decorated with more golden emblems of glory, which, combined with the cobalt blue background, looked even more majestic.

Grod did not wear a helmet, but instead wore a golden laurel wreath, a characteristic of Macragge. Gorgeous tassels hung from his shoulder armor and breastplate. He wore an exquisite cloak behind him, and he seemed to be carrying the wind when he walked.

The original Ever-Victorious Army was the Primarch's Guards, responsible for protecting the Primarch.

And now, Guilliman has become the governor of the Second Empire... Doesn't that mean that they have become the Second Empire's imperial guards?

Luo Xi seemed to have discovered the root cause of their changes. Their self-perception had changed, and naturally their mental outlook would also change.

"Welcome back, Lord Roche." The tall Grod bowed slightly. He was only slightly younger than Auguston in the Ultramarines Legion. Standing in front of Roche was like a high metal wall.

"Lord Guilliman and the Imperial Regent have been waiting for a long time. Please follow me."

The mortal official following Luo Xi bowed and took his leave, while Uslan still followed him.

Grod glanced at the blasphemous alien, but did not attack. He just stood apart from Roshi and Uslan, ready to strangle the Eldar alien's neck as quickly as possible.

Luo Xi has forgotten how many times he has walked through this passage.

But this time, under Grod's leadership, the journey seemed particularly long. Luo Xi felt a little uneasy, because the legendary archangel Sanguinius was waiting for him.

Except for the two Primarchs whose existence was completely wiped out, Roxi knew about all the Primarchs, their life stories, their experiences, and their life trajectories.

Even among his many brothers, this archangel is the most special one.

The most intuitive and special point is that all the information mentions that the Archangel Sanguinius, like the angels in mythology, possesses a pair of huge pure white wings.

For the human empire today, if a person grows a pair of wings, the most likely outcome is not to be worshipped as a god, but to be blasted by a promethium flamethrower.

This means genetic mutation, and more likely contamination from the Warp. If Sanguinius was not one of the Primarchs, he would probably be burned to death.

"I remember that Sanguinius landed on the planet Baal, which was full of radioactive dust clouds. He went through hardships and eventually became the leader of the Baal tribe. He successfully repelled the mutants who had undergone huge mutations under nuclear radiation. Finally, when the Emperor arrived, Sanguinius swore allegiance to the Emperor and returned to the 9th Legion."

Luo Xi recalled the information about Sanguinius in his mind. He was excited but also a little nervous.

He was somewhat curious whether Sanguinius was really as perfect as the rumors said.

Pushing open a golden door inlaid with sparkling gems, the newly renovated palace was covered with red carpets. The smooth walls made of marble and gold reflected the sunlight refracted from the sky, making the entire palace bright.

Sanguinius sat on the throne in the center, with the unfamiliar Sanguinary Guards in golden armor guarding him, while Guilliman sat on another throne beside him.

The archangel leaned slightly against the metal frame of the throne, his rumored pair of white wings slightly spread out, glittering in the sunlight.

Sanguinius's left hand was slightly bent, supporting his chin, and his right hand was resting on a huge golden sword. Roche moved closer and saw it more clearly.

He was wearing a bright golden power armor with several giant rubies adorning the gorgeous armor. Roxi knew that these rubies symbolized Terra, Baal, and Baal's satellites, and were one of Sanguinius's iconic equipment.

He is truly an angel.

When he saw Sanguinius for the first time, even though he had prepared himself mentally, Roxi was still instantly shocked.

The Lord of the Blood Angels in front of him not only had an unparalleled handsome face, but his eyes also shone with an inviolable nobility. His face had a hint of sorrow and sadness that made people feel sorry for him.

He was certain that even compared with other Primarchs, even compared with the rumored to be unparalleled gorgeous Fulgrim, the Archangel was definitely the most holy and handsome one.

He just sat there, without even saying a word, but he already exuded a transcendent and sacred aura.

It was as if in the mythology, an angel sent down by God revealed his true face.

And his best friend, Guilliman, who was sitting beside him with a smile on his face, was equally handsome and tough like a perfectly carved marble statue, but compared to Sanguinius, he was less sacred and more human.

"I have heard of you from my brother Roboute. Come forward, Roche."

The archangel's voice was soft but powerful, as clear as pearls falling on a jade plate. Roche took a few steps forward and saluted in front of Sanguinius.

He stretched out his hands, as soft as jade, and stopped Luo Xi's complicated etiquette.

"Guilliman has praised your selflessness and justice many times. He treats you as a brother, so naturally you and I are brothers as well."

"Nice to meet you, Sanguinius." Roxie also recovered from his initial shock and shook one of the archangel's fingers in a friendly manner.

Guilliman extended his right hand, pointed to a chair next to him that was suitable for mortal bodies, and motioned for Roche to sit down.

On this high platform, there are three thrones, belonging to Sanguinius, Guilliman and Lion respectively, but Lion does not seem to be here.

And half a step below these three thrones is Luo Xi's seat.
