Warhammer 40k Origins Stellaris Civilization Simulator

Especially against our newly defeated mortal enemy, the Human Empire, which relies heavily on psychic technology.

That’s not a big problem, let them enjoy the convenience of version update.

181

Chapter 181 The storm has passed, and the battle in heaven begins again.

Perhaps the day the Thirteenth Primarch arrived on Terra was the first time he considered abandoning everything and fighting to the death with his gene offspring and the aliens.

And he will do it a second time when he meets the "Angel" robot and the war apostle Mathieu.

In any case, the Regent, who has withstood all this pressure, is capable of accepting the task at hand.

Robert Guilliman's face was gloomy, his hands were crossed, and his eyes wandered between a series of data reports.

His court officials waited with bated breath for the Regent to speak, but this time Guilliman was much more silent than usual.

Even the Apostle of War Mathieu did not dare to recite his pious words at this time, which would make the Primarch's blood pressure soar.

Although Guilliman had returned to the center of the Empire for quite some time, the deep-rooted problems of the Empire still made him extremely anxious.

He slowly closed his eyes, and the breathtaking meeting between father and son emerged in his mind.

……

His father, the great Emperor of Mankind, now seemed unable to be called "father" by Guilliman.

The skeletal figure trapped in the Golden Throne had a brief exchange with Guilliman after his return, but that exchange was more like a ridiculous nightmare.

The Emperor at that time displayed terrible and chaotic psychic visions, spoke in incomprehensible language, and sometimes even contradicted each other in the same sentence, giving completely contradictory instructions.

His tone was cold and mechanical, without any trace of his former gentleness.

Guilliman tried to find the shadow of that man, but what he faced seemed to be just something on the Golden Throne. Perhaps the person imprisoned in that throne now was no longer the father he was familiar with.

The reason why his miracles were revealed was because he still remembered the ambition he and his many descendants had made to make mankind great again.

Or is it because he is the "protector god" of the empire and humanity, like Sally?

……

Suppressing the gloom in his heart, Guilliman's gaze returned to those headache-inducing reports.

There was no progress in the governance of the empire. Although he tried to implement a more efficient administrative system, corruption and bureaucracy were like deeply rooted rotten wood that was difficult to uproot.

He once had high hopes for Cawl's Primaris Space Marines, believing they could bring new changes to the Imperium and supplement the now-stretched number of elite Astartes.

But the reactions of those chapters were astonishing. For example, the Blood Angels actually regarded the Primaris as a blasphemy against their traditions, believing that it was "erasing their essence." The Black Templars even attempted to attack the Custodes.

The two are just representatives. Many old chapters are as conservative as them and refuse to accept Primarisization. They treasure their genetic abnormalities and pedantic customs, and are even willing to endure a decline in combat effectiveness and recruitment efficiency in order to "maintain tradition."

This stubbornness infuriated Guilliman to the core. To him, these "traditions" were merely symbols of ignorance. Why should they be preserved when such a waste of resources was simply wasted? Just like how he had declared the Codex Astartes completely obsolete on his first day as Regent.

"Don't they understand that the empire is struggling between life and death? Survival is the top priority now! The problem is efficiency!"

Guilliman sighed heavily and rubbed his temple. He had to take stronger measures.

More imperial guards have been dispatched to oversee and even order the Primaris transformation process of each major war legion. He will not allow anyone to fall behind.

However, it's not all bad news.

……

Since Guilliman's return, the situation in the Empire seems to have really improved, and the Empire's warp navigation has become more stable than ever before.

Some fleets that had been delayed for thousands of years miraculously returned home. Even the expeditionary fleet from the Beast War returned not long ago.

This situation made Guilliman wonder whether there had been some changes in the light of the Astronomican. Instead of being greatly weakened as the Astropaths had observed, it might even have been strengthened?

In addition, the phenomenon of psychics losing control has also decreased significantly. There is even news from the state religion that the frequency of new living saints has increased significantly, and after investigation, their miracles are real.

"Is it that father has become stronger, or..."

Guilliman muttered to himself.

He had never been good at psychic powers and could not understand the positive impact of the Federation on the universe, so he was not sure what this meant. But no matter what, he had to seize this opportunity.

The Empire's armaments are recovering rapidly, and Guilliman has barely mobilized the resources he can use to form an "Indomitable Defense Force".

This situation was far more serious than a simple Great Rift eruption, and an expedition was a pipe dream. The Federation and the Great Rift had completely trapped the Empire's dark side. The other half of the galaxy was no longer within the Empire's control, but some attempts at repairing the situation were still possible.

Guilliman's plan was to use this force to repel possible invasions by Chaos, Aliens, and the Federation, maintain the three star regions of Sol, Tempest, and Taiping as the rear, then try to mobilize the production capacity of these areas, and then consider the issue of recovering lost territory.

What comforted him was that the power of Chaos seemed to be now besieging the Alien Federation with all its might, and most of the other aliens were unable to spare any effort, while the power of the Empire seemed to be recovering.

In other words, the empire had a valuable buffer period.

……

At the same time, Chaos itself is facing a crisis.

Abaddon the Despoiler had planned to seize the three artifacts of Caliban, but his partner, Vashtor, the Dark Forge God, suddenly entered an abnormal state, forcing the entire plan to be shelved.

Abaddon was furious, but Vashtor threatened that if he insisted on acting arbitrarily, the supply to the Ark of the Ominous would be cut off immediately. Abaddon was forced to accept the reality and could only temporarily stop.

The Green Khan wreaked havoc throughout the galaxy. He didn't care who his enemies were, as long as all forces were within his attack range.

But because of this, the greenskin army was severely dispersed and unable to form a truly deadly offensive, and the Empire could barely cope on the Western Front.

But what surprised the other factions the most was the actions of the Undead Dynasty. Those terrifying metal undead chose to remain silent and not launch any attacks.

Their deadly fleets are shrinking to a few core Crownworlds, and there are even rumors that they are experiencing some kind of internal strife.

A group of Necromancers calling themselves the "Followers of the Synthetic Queen" appear to be engaged in a fierce civil war with the mainstream Necromancer dynasty.

Guilliman was not clear about the details, but he knew that as long as the Necrons had no energy to expand, it would be a good thing for the Empire.

……

At this moment, a sudden piece of news made Guilliman feel the long-lost hope.

"Leon...is he back?"

The Dark Angels of Caliban report that their Genetic Father, the Lion El'Jonson, has awakened from his slumber.

Under his command, the Dark Angels successfully resisted the attacks of the Greenskin Great Khan and defended Caliban.

This should have been a moment of celebration, but Guilliman frowned at the report.

The alien guardians of Caliban: the Dark Watchers, suddenly declared that the fate of the universe had been torn apart by a great being, and that heaven was about to be recast, and they were going on a pilgrimage.

Before leaving, these mysterious creatures guided the Dark Angels to find their long-lost genetic father.

Guilliman didn't like these mystical things, but he had to admit that the return of the Lion King was one of the most important good news for the Empire at the moment.

However, Guilliman quickly issued an order.

"The Dark Angels must not take any military action without authorization. Bring their Gene-Father back to Terra immediately."

He needed the Lion King to return and discuss with him how to deal with the Federation's next offensive. The Empire was at a critical juncture of life and death, and the return of every Primarch was crucial.

And only the united Primarchs could possibly deal with the threat of the new Randan Empire.

He also issued a special order.

……

"Imperial Guards, arrest that intelligence officer!"

The intelligence provided by this intelligence officer was incredibly accurate, with almost no errors.

Guilliman was well aware that someone with such high professional capabilities was definitely not something the Imperial intelligence system of this era could find.

The only possibility is that this intelligence officer is actually a Tzeentch changeling, Alpharius, or a Zelvan agent of the Federation.

There is no mistake in arresting anyone, and the facts prove that there was no mistake in arresting anyone.

The answer is the first one.

……

The galaxy is now divided among several major powers, and the prelude to the second round of the War in Heaven has begun.

The combined forces of the Empire and the Eldar held the west, the Great Khan and the Necrons wreaked havoc in the northwest and northeast respectively, and Chaos attacked from the center along the Great Rift.

The Federation is waiting for the Southeast War to end and is preparing to kick all of the following forces off the stage of history.

It's time for everyone to compete in alloys and production capacity. At this stage, the more fleets and super weapons the better.

With the glory of my fleet, I will create a paradise on earth again.

Chapter 182 New Situation: The Great Achievements of the Synthetic Queen.

Just as the Helka Federation began to plan which enemy to deal with first in the War in Heaven, the Illusion Prophet took the initiative to contact the Federation's Archons and demanded that they must begin preparing to fight a threat.

The Archons of the Helka Federation gathered in the Universal Council Chamber. The atmosphere was so solemn that even the light seemed to be stagnant in the air.

The arrival of the Visionary Prophet brought a chilling message. It wasn't the resurgence of the Imperium of Man or the forces of Chaos, nor was it the counterattack of Storm King Imotekh, nor was it the next large-scale invasion of the Tyranids, but rather an unknown new enemy.

This psychic mentor, clad in a crimson robe, looked as if he could see into the future from behind his metal mask. His voice was deep and firm as he described the terrifying visions he had witnessed within the torrent of psychic energy.

The warning signs among the stars are like burning flames, and the intertwined clues of the future all point to the same destination: extinction in the darkness, a future that ends all life and thought.

At first, it was just a vague shadow, flashing between countless dreams and fantasies. But now, she has stepped into reality and gradually put her crazy creed into practice.

What she seeks is not conquest, not domination, but a complete end, a universe without any fluctuations of thoughts or surges of emotions, a truly silent country.

The Synthetic Queen Setana is beginning her "purification".

……

The origins of this synthetic queen are very mysterious, and even the Vision Prophet knows very little about her. However, he believes that her existence may be related to the "esoteric religion" he joined in his early years.

The Cabal is a secret organization formed by the union of many psychic species in the galaxy. They were deeply involved in the Horus Heresy and supported the rebel faction led by Horus.

Esotericism believes that the existence of the human empire is itself the result of the bet of the chaotic forces, so humans will be the biggest boost to the growth of the chaotic forces.

So they should support Horus in defeating the Emperor of Mankind. After that, Horus, unable to bear the power of Chaos, would self-destruct and cause the complete extinction of mankind within one or two generations.

When humans, the biggest source of energy for chaos, self-destruct, chaos will completely dissipate within a few hundred years because it will lose its influence in the physical universe.

On the contrary, if the Emperor is victorious, the Imperium of Man will continue to supply energy to Chaos in a long period of corruption, eventually causing the Warp to devour reality and the entire universe to be destroyed.

……

The Cabal actively supported the actions of the rebels and bribed two of the Primarchs, Alpharius and Omegon, to help advance the "Glory's End" plan.

However, the situation did not develop as the esoteric sect had imagined. As early as the middle of the Great Rebellion, the esoteric sect's plan had completely gotten out of control.

The now Visionary Prophet, the former nameless apostate, discovered to his horror during a divination that the entire rebellion was a conspiracy of the Chaos Gods.

The destruction of the Empire will not only not lead to the disappearance of Chaos, but will also give birth to a new Chaos God, completely bringing about the death and end of the real dimension.

Realizing that this plan could not succeed, the Nameless Apostate, as his name suggests, immediately betrayed his colleagues and began to obstruct the Cabal's plans. For example, he used a false prophecy to delay the actions of part of the Alpha Legion.

Ultimately, the Horus Heresy ended in the Emperor's triumph after the final showdown between the Vengeful Spirits. The Emperor of Mankind made the ultimate sacrifice, preventing his own transformation into a Dark God in a way that even the Nameless Apostate could not understand.

Although the Galaxy has lost hope of renewal because of this, at least everything is temporarily out of danger.

After the Horus Heresy, the Cabal gradually ceased its activities, and the Nameless Apostate believed them to have disbanded, with its members having died, retired, or disappeared over a long period of time.

But now it seems that some members of the cult have survived and are still advancing their plans.

And these cult members once again released a power that they could not control, which was the Synthetic Queen.

……

No one knows the origins of the Synthetic Queen, but her power cannot be ignored.

She has surpassed the most dangerous Iron Man in history, and even the Necrons under the control of the C'tan.

The ability brought by a certain super-annihilation protocol allows her to have devastating suppression power over all ancient civilizations, or so-called fallen empires.

The good news is that she does not intend to use this power to rule the universe, the bad news is that she wants to bring complete "peace" to the universe.

Her power stems from a terrifying concept: she relies not on psionics, emotions, or chaos, but on the utter annihilation of all thinking beings.

Setana continued the Tantric plan and took it to the extreme. She believed that the will, emotions, impulses, and memories of intellectual life were the source of cosmic instability and were factors that hindered the arrival of true tranquility.

In her logic, the universe will only usher in ultimate "tranquility" when all thoughts are extinguished and all living things cease to exist.

So she decided to completely destroy and assimilate all intelligent life in the universe, even the thinking energy bodies such as the star gods, and incorporate the entire material universe into her "ultimate extinction".
