Chapter 729, Great Era

Xernos thought for a moment and decided to surrender.

He could accept death, but not real death.

For any Eldar, the soul falling into the hands of Slaanesh is more cruel than any torture.

His soul box was tampered with, and he could not go back; but at least he was not directly deprived of the connection with Commorra. The protective function between the curtains was still in effect, so he and his subordinates would not have their souls sucked away instantly.

But if they died, it would be over. They could not be resurrected from the soul box, and their souls would fall into the hands of Slaanesh.

It is better to surrender.

Although, falling into the hands of humans does not mean there is a way to survive. Those most crazy racial purists in this universe are very hostile to all aliens.

However, Xernos also has a certain understanding of humans. Among humans, various aliens also have a certain priority of extinction. Even some races are actually quite different from humans, such as dwarves, Ogryn, halflings, beastmen, mutants, etc., which have also been accepted by the human empire.

They are classified as "sub-humans". Although they suffer discrimination and are even wiped out in many places with a high degree of insanity, they will be wiped out. However, in some relatively open-minded or chaotic areas, these sub-humans will have a certain living space.

Even the Astra Militarum and the Inquisition may recruit these sub-humans into the army.

The Eldar are definitely not sub-humans, but if you really compare them, they may look more like humans than some sub-humans.

In addition, the Eldar themselves are very intelligent. Even the Dark Eldar, their cunning and smart characteristics, at least they can communicate with each other, which is different from the greenskins and void zerg who only know how to work, kill, kill, and eat without thinking; and they are also different from those Chaos traitors and demons.

Even some imperial caravans that have obtained special qualifications will trade with the Eldar on a stable basis.

This makes surrender negotiations possible.

Of course, how can the Alliance accept conditional surrender under such circumstances?

The Alliance gave the Dark Eldar pirates an ultimatum, asking them to lay down all their weapons and surrender unconditionally.

This was the only way to surrender.

Xernos accepted it swiftly.

Then, accompanied by the Space Marines, the Human Marines boarded the ships, took control of all the ships, and disarmed all the living units such as the Dark Eldar, Blood Slaves, and Alien Mercenaries, and escorted them to ships specially used as prisons.

The interrogation began.

I thought it would take some effort, but in fact, these Dark Elves who surrendered voluntarily were very cooperative and said whatever I asked.

Where else in the Spider Web Universe did they set up the Veil Spirit Gate; on which planets did they set up lurkers, what was the contact method, how to catch them...

They told all this information.

In addition to this, they also told all the information about the Dark Eldar themselves and about Comoros.

There was no psychological burden at all.

With such a cooperative attitude, I just want to die.

The most important interrogation target was the plundering captain Xernos Bloodcurse himself.

He was a middle-level senior member of the Bloodcurse family.

In the past, the Inquisition had captured dark eldar, but there were still very few captives of this level.

The Anti-foreign Order was quite interested in him.

However, the first person to interrogate him was Martini.

Martini got a heavy news from Xernos.

About the prophecy, about why they came to the Spider Web Universe, about the all-round raid strategy led by the Bloodcurse family against the Infinite Warband...

After listening, Martini was shocked.

He also realized the value of this information at the first time.

After pacing back and forth, he told Xernos: "Later, there will be some inquisitors who will interrogate you. You must tell them everything else, but don't tell them these things. Can you do it?"

Xernos spoke the common human language with a strange accent and asked: "Won't they kill me? I know them, the Order of the Forbidden City, the Inquisitors, their methods are very powerful, and I may not be able to keep the secret. If they find out that I am hiding something, I will die."

"If you tell it, you will die too." Martini said, "You have no choice, alien."

After that, Martini comforted him a little: "When they interrogate, I will also be by your side to provide you with some cover and help. I also believe that you aliens are best at lies and fraud, and you will pass. As long as you follow my requirements, I will guarantee your life, and maybe there will be a chance to release you back to Comoros."

"I hope you keep your promise."

...

Xernos actually doesn't believe anyone's promise.

However, as Martini said, he had no choice.

Moreover, he revealed all the information so easily. On the one hand, it was to show his value and win favor with a cooperative attitude in order to save his life; on the other hand, it was also a means for him to retaliate against his family and his fellow tribesmen in Comoros with malicious intent.

If his family betrayed him, then this was revenge;

If other families got his soul box in order to attack the Blood Curse Family, then it was also the fault of the Blood Curse Family. Who told them not to protect my soul box?

Even if the final outcome is that he still cannot escape death and will still fall into the hands of Slaanesh and undergo eternal torture, then he hopes that the more information he reveals can make more of his kind end up with the same fate as him.

This is the only solace.

…

Zernos survived the ensuing interrogation without incident.

The Order of the Outsiders was interested in him, but primarily in intelligence about the Dark Eldar and Commorragh. Although I asked why they came to the spider web domain to plunder, it was not critical. In their view, it is normal for Dark Eldar pirates to appear anywhere to carry out plundering operations.

The focus was not on this, and with the cover of martini, Zernos was really good at concealing things, so he passed the interrogation smoothly.

The Inquisitors began to discuss how to deal with these Dark Eldar.

A considerable number of people believe that these aliens who have been drained of their intelligence must be purified.

But Martini put a stop to it.

The way he used it was that maybe there was some other information that had not yet been resolved and could be reviewed slowly. The prisons of the Alliance demon hunters are built according to the standards of the Inquisition and can be used to imprison these aliens.

Maybe it can come in handy in the future.

After appeasing his colleagues from the Foreign Order, he reported to the superiors non-stop, requesting a separate direct conversation with Governor Gu Hang.

…

"Thank you for the information, well done, Inquisitor Martini."

After listening to the report, Gu Hang praised the judge's achievements without hesitation.

He endured the discomfort and exchanged a few words with Martini before hanging up the phone.

"Are you okay?" The wife beside him asked worriedly.

Ye Lixia was right next to her, and she could see that Gu Hang, who was originally in a normal state, turned quite pale after listening to the report, and there was even some cold sweat on his forehead.

This was unusual for Gu Hang.

Only a few times before, when I witnessed Gu Hang fighting against powerful psychic opponents, did I see Gu Hang in a similar situation.

"Huh..." Gu Hang breathed heavily. He gently stroked Yelicia's hand and said, "I need to stay by myself for a while."

Yelicia is very sensible and won't say anything to show off at this time. She just hugged Gu Hang slightly, then turned and left, leaving Gu Hang alone in the office.

At this time, Gu Hang rolled his eyes and his mind sank into his divine kingdom.

Here, it is already a stormy sea.

Violent thunder and lightning flashed fiercely over the entire Kingdom of God.

The heroic spirits raised their heads, looked at the unusual sight, and started talking about it.

Gu Hang's Kingdom of Storms is indeed a kingdom of lightning. But for a long time, under Gu Hang's control, thunder and lightning would not roar out of control like this. It should be very stable. Occasionally it would flash, and the thunder would not be loud.

But now, the continuous roaring thunder not only always illuminates the sky, but the sound of thunder echoes throughout the entire Kingdom of God.

It's not that Gu Hang can't control it, it's just that he doesn't have the intention now.

Just dodge, you won't die if you dodge for a while.

His mind was all focused on the scene being performed in the center among the dark clouds of the Kingdom of God, surrounded by lightning and thunder.

The pictures were a bit blurry and blurry, but it still didn't prevent Gu Hang from seeing clearly what those pictures were:

prophecy.

He saw the figure of Robert, a legend of the Empire, one of the Emperor's sons, and the genetic father of the Infinite Legion.

It was only natural that Gu Hang could recognize him. His portraits were widely disseminated throughout the empire. In the state religion, he is a high-level religious mythological figure, the son of God, and an object of faith; in the official propaganda of the empire, he is also a mighty general who established the empire; among space warriors, especially in the current generation, the number Under the propaganda of the Infinite Legion, their genetic father is also the most famous among all the Sons of God.

And such a character, sitting quietly on the throne in the picture of clouds projected by the Kingdom of Storm God. The stasis field was released from the equipment at the four corners of the throne, and a faint blue light shrouded his body and the entire area, stopping the flow of time there, and stopping him forever at the moment before his death. .

Gu Hang had also seen this scene from a picture album. It was supposed to be a work praising Robert's achievements. At the end of the book, with sad writing, it was accompanied by a picture of Robert sitting quietly in a stasis force field, just like Gu Hang now. What I saw was exactly the same.

But the difference is that in the picture in Gu Hang's memory, there are people kneeling down beside the throne. They looked at the Son of God with reverence, pain, and expectation.

What was revealed on the cloud screen of the Kingdom of Storms was that a bloody and cruel battle was taking place next to the throne.

On one side is the Infinite Battle Group.

They have an iconic indigo solid-color battle armor, and many of them are decorated with rather fancy carvings, medals, and shoulder armor.

These things very significantly demonstrate their identity, especially the reflection of their past achievements.

Moreover, they are not purely decorative items that have no role in combat. On the contrary, these sacred accessories that embody their past military achievements have the power of faith and can truly make the space warriors who wear them stronger.

Some power increase; some luck bonus; faster reaction; more agile body; the blow that would have penetrated the armor is deflected... Speaking of it, it is quite metaphysical, but it can indeed play a similar role.

Gu Hang also noticed that most of the infinite warriors fighting here have golden eagle visors on their helmets.

This is also very symbolic, representing that these infinite warriors are the most famous unit in the regiment: the Ever-Victorious Army!

In the past, in the Legion era, the Ever-Victorious Army was the personal guard of the Father of Genes and the most glorious honor guard in the Ultra 500 World. At the same time, it was not like an ordinary honor guard that only had a look, but could really be put into the battlefield. Their heroic posture often played a decisive role on the battlefield and won merit.

To this day, the Ever-Victorious Army is also the most elite unit in the Infinite Regiment and the personal guard of the regiment leader.

With so many Ever-Victorious Army, then...

Sure enough, Gu Hang saw a majestic warrior.

The current commander of the Infinite Legion - Kellerman.

He was covered in blood and fought hard.

They were able to break into the Infinite Legion's home - Ultra Star, and under the full defense of the Infinite Legion, they even attacked the core of Ultra Star, which is where the Gene Father, who has been guarding the Legion for 10,000 years, is located. It can be seen how critical the situation has become.

And who did all this?

They are Space Marines wearing black armor.

However, looking at their paint, they are significantly different from the Space Marines of the Empire.

Beside them, there are a small number of demons, but each of them looks very powerful, accompanying them in the battle.

There is no doubt that this is a group of Chaos Space Marines, the origin of the Empire ten thousand years ago, and the biggest traitor.

Under the leadership of Kellerman, the Ever-Victorious Army fought very bravely. However, their number is too small. On the contrary, their enemies seem endless.

If they continue to fight like this, the Infinite Warriors will probably be defeated.

At this moment, a portal suddenly opened at the top, and a mixed army descended here to assist the Infinite Warriors in launching a counterattack against the Chaos traitors and demons.

Their composition structure is very complex, and their clothes are different.

But it does not mean that they are weak.

Among them, there are Black Crusaders Space Marines wearing black armor, Inquisitors of the Demonic Tribunal and his bounty hunters, Mechanicus elites led by a Mechanicus Sage in a fighting posture, and combat nuns led by a living saint with wings on his back...

If it were just that, it would be fine. Gu Hang also saw a group of strange humanoid troops wearing red armor. Although their faces were not revealed, Gu Hang still recognized their identity from their equipment style - the Eldar.

Not the Dark Eldar, but the decent White Eldar.

Their arrival stabilized the front line, but it was not enough to turn defeat into victory.

At this time, a leader among the Eldar, an Eldar female warrior, wearing a set of armor, approached the throne under the escort of the Mechanicus Sage.

They seemed to have said something to Captain Kellerman and had an argument, but in the end, under Gu Hang's shocked sight, he saw that the stasis field was closed, and the armor in the hands of the Eldar seemed to have life, floating and unfolding its structure, quickly attached to the Son of God, and quickly closed.

In the close-fitting azure armor, the Son of the Emperor stood up from the throne.

He picked up the Emperor's Sword that had been silent in the stasis field with him for ten thousand years.

Instantly, a raging fire ignited on the sword!

Robert strode down from the throne, and the soldiers of the Empire and the Eldar automatically made way for him.

The Son of God, holding the sword, slashed the traitors and demons one by one under the sword like a storm.

At this point, the picture gradually dimmed and finally disappeared.

The abnormal lightning and thunder in the Kingdom of Storm God also gradually subsided.

The heroes who had also seen these pictures were talking to each other.

Not everyone could understand all this, but it did not prevent them from realizing that it was probably a big deal.

Gu Hang waved his hand slightly, and a voice reached the hearts of every hero.

"Keep it secret."

The heroes stopped their actions and saluted in Gu Hang's direction.

Gu Hang was still relieved about the heroes. The heroes were essentially the external manifestation of his power. They would not betray or leak secrets.

What Gu Hang cared more about was what the picture just now in the clouds of his kingdom of God was telling?

He fully understood the content. Ultra Star would be attacked by the enemy of Chaos, and Robert, the descendant of the Emperor and the genetic father of the Infinite Legion, would wake up.

But this is not history, right?

I have never heard of such a thing happening.

That is now? Is it in progress?

It is possible, but not likely.

The Alliance is still doing business with the Infinite Star Region. It is peaceful over there. Except for the looting actions of the dark elf pirates in the surrounding area, there is no news of any turmoil. Even if the Chaos Army launched an attack on Ultra Star, it would take time. It is impossible for them to enter the core area without any news.

Is that the future?

Is what you see happening in the future?

Very likely.

Gu Hang didn't know why he saw these images. However, he did not forget that the reason for seeing the images was because Inquisitor Martini told him the prophecy he had interrogated.

After listening to the prophecy, he felt that his kingdom of God was in turmoil, the subspace was surging, and these images appeared in his kingdom of God.

Combining the images with the prophecy, Gu Hang realized:

It seems that the Blood Curse Family in the Dark Eldar has interpreted the prophecy correctly.

The youngest evil god - the Emperor.

The Emperor is certainly not an evil god, but in the eyes of the Dark Eldar, he is.

The Emperor's most rational son is Robert.

It makes sense.

After returning to the real universe from the Kingdom of God, Gu Hang sat alone in the office for a long time.

He was thinking about what this major event that he knew might happen in the future meant? How could he use it?

Should he tell the Infinite Warband? Should he tell Holy Terra?

This thing is said to be in the future, but how long in the future will it happen?

What role will the Alliance play in it? What will the situation be?

"The great era is coming..."
