The noisy players suddenly fell silent, exchanging bewildered glances.
P.S.: Updates have resumed at 12 o'clock. I must keep updating consistently.
Chapter 216 Emperor: Obtaining a Purple Phoenix Figurine
The air became eerily quiet.
The noisy players seemed to be under a spell, standing frozen in place.
Neither of them moved, afraid of making a sound and becoming the scapegoat.
"who am I?"
"where am I?"
"What should I do?"
In those few seconds, Trajan contemplated countless times the meaning of life and the universe.
To be honest, he didn't really want to face this terrible reality.
The dignified commander of the Imperial Guard was knocked away by the Chosen One and slid so far on the smooth ground!!
If word gets out, where will I, as the commander of the Imperial Guards, put my face?
But reality is reality, and it won't disappear just because you try to escape it.
After hesitating for a moment, Trajan rolled over and got up, looking somewhat disheveled.
The imperial guards and players just watched without saying a word.
The scene was eerily quiet.
Only when Trajan was in action did the sound of the servo motors inside the armor echo in the air.
The players instinctively took a step back.
Trajan glanced around at the chosen ones and sighed inwardly.
Where did Your Majesty find these clowns?!
I organized my thoughts.
Trajan glossed over what had just happened and began the quest storyline in a solemn and serious tone.
"Chosen Ones, are you here to accept a mission?"
"The brutal cyber warfare drained the cyber forces of their blood, and their bodies are still left in the cyberspace today."
"As long as you can bring back the bodies of the fallen imperial heroes, you will gain the friendship of the Imperial Guard and a reward."
"I want to sign up." Zhan Shuai was the first to step forward. "It is my honor to serve the Imperial Guard."
After saying that, he clenched his fist and pounded it on his chest, making a loud thud, symbolizing the donation of his heart.
Trajan nodded in satisfaction at this gesture. "Thank you for your dedication, Chosen One, Warmaster of the Second Empire."
Trajan didn't quite understand the meaning of the other person's name; he was just transliterating it.
The other players, witnessing this scene, were immediately heartbroken and filled with grief and indignation.
This guy beat me to it again.
Judging from Trajan's expression, he must be very satisfied with him.
That Zhan Shuai guy is practically an NPC succubus!!
He always gets maximum favorability with any NPC he interacts with!
Other players also stepped forward.
"Commander, I also want to take on a mission."
"I will never let you down."
"We're all family, so you can't go wrong choosing me."
"Yes, Brother Trajan, I also want a mission, I also want to experience the work of the Imperial Guard."
"Kill! Kill! Kill! Slash! Slash!"
"I will offer my blood to the throne and my skull to the Emperor. I will give everything for the Emperor."
"........."
The words of the chosen one echoed in Trajan's ears.
It made him suspect that he was facing a group of cultists, who were shouting all sorts of blasphemous slogans very fluently.
After the commotion, Trajan issued the order.
Watching the players leave happily, and even saying thank you before leaving, Trajan suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.
Send the Chosen Ones to the Net Path to retrieve the bodies of fallen heroes, and as a reward, let them do a day's work as Imperial Guards.
Not only will they not have any objections, they will also thank you.
Trajan initially thought the saint was joking.
Surprisingly, these chosen ones actually thank you.
The players who received the mission quickly got to work.
Recruit staff, develop plans, and discuss how to collaborate.
The scale of cyber warfare is considerable.
Besides the Imperial Guard and the Silent Sisters, there were also members of the Mechanicus of the Unified Church.
Later, the Royal Guard mobilized another batch of reinforcements from Terra, which also suffered heavy casualties.
Bringing back all the bodies of the deceased would be a huge undertaking.
It's unrealistic to expect players to move the items themselves.
The players recruited some Imperial troops.
They are to be assigned to tasks such as perimeter security and transport.
The judges of the Inquisition, through some unknown means, learned of the mission given to the Chosen One by Trajan, the commander of the Imperial Guard, and decided to participate in it.
They dispatched several Inquisitors and Stormtroopers to join the Chosen Ones in entering the Web Path to investigate some matters.
The Mechanical Repair Society also responded very positively after receiving the news.
They also wanted to explore the web, so they announced their participation in the mission.
Players participating in the mission will also be provided with a batch of newly produced mechanical equipment.
Just as the matter of the internet was affecting the nerves of various departments...
Qin Yun was in the Terra Palace, receiving Little Fugrim, Masanor, and others.
"Sanguinius?"
The first time I saw Qin Yun,
Masanor and the other Shadowmoon Wolves initially mistook it for Saint Gilles.
Because they are so similar, the pair of pure white wings and the weeping mask are both standard features of Saint Gillespie.
“I am not Saint Gilles.” Qin Yun shook his head. “Saint Gilles is dead. He was killed by Horus himself on the Soul of Vengeance.”
“I am the Emperor’s saint, acting as regent for Robert Guilliman in Terra, and have the authority to decide your fate.”
Masanor and the others opened their mouths, but ultimately couldn't say anything, their expressions turning very gloomy.
The names Vengeance and Horus touched a nerve with them.
The betrayal of the Primarchs and the Legion turned their hard-won honor into a joke.
The Shadowmoon Wolf, once considered a source of pride, is now a name that can no longer be mentioned.
Little Forgrim didn't speak, but his face was equally gloomy.
"Alright, I brought you here not to discuss things from the past."
Qin Yun spoke in a very gentle tone, trying her best not to put pressure on them.
"It was your Legion and Primarch who betrayed you; you were not involved. The infamy and hatred should not fall on you."
"But considering the public's simple feelings, you should no longer call yourselves Shadow Moon Wolf, and you should no longer talk about your past honors, so as to avoid causing unnecessary public opinion and conflict."
The eyes of Masanor and the other Shadowmoon Wolves immediately dimmed.
This statement undoubtedly negates the sacrifices they once made.
But considering the information they had seen about the Horus Rebellion,
But they also understood that the other party's reasons for doing so were legitimate.
Shadowmoon Wolf has long been a term hated by the people of the Empire.
“We understand, Your Majesty,” Masanor nodded and said softly.
"What are your plans for yourselves? Will you continue fighting for the Emperor, or retire?" Qin Yun asked Masanor.
“We want to continue fighting.” Masanor walked up to Qin Yun and knelt on one knee. “Horus’s feelings for the Emperor are so sincere, he would never betray the Emperor.”
"It's all Abaddon's fault. If he hadn't been so foolish as to trust that guy Eribus, there wouldn't have been the Horus Rebellion."
Masanor has been investigating the origins and details of the Horus Rebellion during this time.
Detailed information about this rebellion has long been lost.
But the Chosen Ones knew the inside story.
Thus, Masanor used his own weapon to obtain detailed information about the Horusic Rebellion from a Chosen One who knew the inside story.
Masanor and the others were captured by the Endless Tarasin during the Battle of Ulanor.
After the Battle of Ulano, Horus took over as commander-in-chief.
The Emperor withdrew from the Great Crusade and returned to Terra to build the Webway.
After defeating the false emperor and queen, the Shadowmoon Wolf Legion changed its name to Sons of Horus.
The legion's initial campaign went relatively smoothly, with them conquering numerous worlds in succession.
Until Irebas joined the Legion,
Horus's son suffered a series of setbacks, which severely damaged Horus's confidence.
On several occasions, the defeats were caused by Eribas interfering with the battles.
For example, the Interles civilization,
The expeditionary force and the delegation from the Interlesian civilization are already negotiating.
However, Irebas secretly stole the nemesis's blade that the other party was keeping.
This led the Interles civilization to mistakenly believe that the Imperial expeditionary force led by Horus was a lackey of Chaos.
This led to a fierce battle between the two sides.
Later, Irebas even publicly revealed at a press conference that Governor Yugan Tamba was the traitor of Devonstar, putting Horus in an awkward position and forcing him to personally quell the rebellion.
Privately, Irebas then gave the stolen Nemesis Blade to Yogan Tamba.
This caused Horus to suffer an incurable wound.
Abaddon and his men were caught off guard by Horus's injuries.
Under the influence of Erebas, Horus was sent to the Temple of Devon.
Ultimately, this led to Horus being corrupted by Chaos, which sparked the Horusic Rebellion.
“We just want Eribus and Abaddon to pay the price, Saint,” Massano said. “That’s the only reason we’re still alive.”
“These two traitors are blessed by the gods; you are no match for them.” Qin Yun pointed out a truth that filled Masanor and the others with despair: “Even if you find them, you cannot kill them.”
“Someone has to do it, saint. As long as they bleed, there will always be a way to kill them.”
Masanor spoke with firm conviction; he and the Shadowmoon Wolves behind him had made up their minds.
"Since you insist, I will certainly give you my full support." Qin Yun nodded. "I will allow you to accept the original forging upgrade and obtain the best equipment. I hope you can succeed."
