Warhammer: I don't want to be a stinky can! ! !

Chapter 655 103. Tzeentch wins, wins, wins

There are no winners in this galaxy.

Only change lasts--and it is wonderful.

The thin thread of fate broke, and the story of Xi Gaoqi came to an end.

The indulgent falls into moderation, the Eldar destroyer is tied to the Eldar, this is the joke that Xi Gaoqi tells.

This is the mercy that Chaos bestows upon the youngest... With ever-changing ingenuity, the gods awakened by the fall of the Eldar were imprisoned in Commorragh, and the only one who had the last laugh was Tzeentch.

In the past, Xi Gaoqi visited the Lord of Change, hoping that the Lord of Change would work together to complete the last piece of the puzzle. He readily agreed, and all the prophecies came true, but the souls of the elves that the Laughing God expected were spit out... but it was accomplished in another way.

This is prophecy and destiny.

The maze is ever-changing, time flows in another way, and Tampering Sky closes his eyes, waiting for the never-ending changes.

Facing that monster... He still has one more chance.

The three relics of the ancient saint...

In the distance...his unexpected guest jumped into the sea of ​​destiny.

..............................

【Terra】

“For the first time, I felt like vomiting.”

The Necrons said that Trazyn consciously let go of Hades. This was a precious feeling, and Trazyn silently recorded it.

"You can try another way to travel."

Hades said a little anxiously, the puffy black veil had not yet dissipated around him, his face was still empty and dark, and he strode forward in the direction of the Terra Palace.

Yes, after taking a few bites of the Void Dragon fragments, Hades learned how to time-space jump, although it was not very accurate -

For example, they just fell directly into the green pit.

Hades, who was in a hurry to travel, went straight to the Black Domain. The greenskins stood up and were killed in seconds, leaving the local Star Army who were still fighting with the greenskins, stunned by the mushroom corpses all over the ground.

In the gap between the next jumps, Hades hurriedly pushed Trazyn, which was hanging around his waist, back into his cloak.

"Don't panic, everyone!"

Hades raised his hands.
"It's just a small favor! It's just a small favor! Praise the Emperor! God-Emperor! I have no ill intentions-"

The last note was still floating in the air, and Hades felt that he could not afford to lose face with this person. Fortunately, he did not reveal his true face and instantly made a second leap and escaped.

Hades originally wanted to take Boots with him, but Trazyn told him that humans might not be able to withstand the pressure of his jump, so Hades had to give up.

So Buzz, who had come back from afar, watched Hades flash back to Terra, while he stayed where he was, staring into the eyes of the Primarch and a few old men including Karas.

Hades also considerately called Black to accompany Boots. They will accompany the seriously injured Primarch and Karas (and Vox) to start a document review hell.

Unfortunately the Primarch seemed very interested in the two younger Hades.

Even more unfortunately, Buzz also has to guard against a backstab from Blake.

He didn't want this guy to suddenly show up - the Black Butcher's EQ was obviously so low.

On Terra, Hades had a smooth journey, while Trazyn found a place to disappear. If the King of Figures' sensor was sensitive enough, perhaps it would detect some of the Astrologer's aura.

"Old yellow head!"

Hades shouted, and when he looked up, he saw Malcador, who had returned before him, sitting beside the golden throne with a calm expression.

When the two saw Hades, their expressions were slightly shocked, but they quickly regained their composure.

Hades thought about it for a moment, and immediately took off the mask he used to protect himself from embarrassment.

He originally wanted to come over to check on Malcador's condition, but after seeing this scene, Hades hesitated again. He suspected that he didn't need to get involved in the game between the Emperor and Malcador at all - but should concentrate on his own affairs.

He stepped onto the high steps, but saw the Emperor raising a hand.

"I know what you want to say."

The Lord of Mankind said calmly, "Well done, Hades."

Hades took a deep breath,

Good? He felt a little irritated. The skeleton of the Endurance had not yet been completely salvaged. Ten thousand years of hard work were scattered in the real space, and there were also those who died...

The loss was slightly greater, but they could have taken precautions in advance.

"Don't be too hard on yourself,"

The Lord of Mankind continued,
"The Star God has influenced you."

Malcador sneered as well.
"Slaanesh has been badly damaged - the cost is less than half a legion, what else are you dissatisfied with? Or do you want to clear the level without any damage?"

Hades noticed that Malcador's arms were shaking, but the other two apparently didn't care.

"I guess my Fourteenth Son has no complaints about this?"

The Emperor continued, his eyes gleaming with golden light.
"He's probably satisfied with it."

Hades was silent for a moment. He was actually still worried about Mortarion's mental state. Khalas had recovered well, but it was another story for the God of Death who was captured and stared at by Slaanesh.

However, Mortarion remained calm and composed, without even pausing. The Primarch told Hades that if he had time to care about his mental state, he might as well review official documents.

So Hades came to Terra.

Hades decided to focus on the key points.

"But the problem is that Slaanesh has come to the real world on its own initiative,"

Hades said worriedly,
"Then the next Chaos can do the same, and the Empire will be in a passive state."

This is equivalent to telling Hades that Chaos can pick any key world of the empire at random based on his mood, and directly come to destroy it and violently tear open the veil, no matter how sophisticated its defenses are, and there is no need to consider how to perform sacrifices to weaken the veil.

It's open!
"We have always been the passive one,"

The emperor raised his hand, still looking in a good mood.

"Chaos's reckless actions will also deplete their own power. Slaanesh's actions also made his position as a god unsafe, and the future was changed by the design of the Ever-changing Heaven."

"So what is the purpose of Slaanesh's raid this time?"

Hades couldn't believe it.
"Getting beaten and then having your own strength greatly reduced? Don't tell me that He really came to me for fun."

The Lord of Mankind remained silent, his face became sacred and calm again. Hades knew very well that once the Emperor showed such an expression, it must be that Old Deng did not know the answer and was ready to fool him.

“There are good things in the Comoros.”

Makado, who was standing aside with a cold look on his face, smiled and said,

"Slaanesh made a deal with the Aeons, and was promised Commorragh—but the Aeons fooled everyone they bargained with."

This sentence was suggestive. Hades knew that Malcador also had a deal with Wan Bian Tian. Apparently, Malcador was also sold out this time.

But! Why are they all asking riddles again!
"Slaanesh is in Commorros now, so what about your plan, old horse?"

Hades hits a straight shot.

Malcador nodded happily.
"Then I'll follow your plan. This expedition to the Eldar has consumed a lot of my energy... I'm afraid I won't be able to fight again in the short term."

"The Eldar will organize a counterattack,"

The Lord of Mankind immediately added, "The next attack will be even more frenzied until we completely wipe them out."

"?"

"Hasn't Malcador already wiped out a wave of Eldar? Comoros has also fallen now. Will the Eldar be able to rise in the short term?"

Hades frowned at the Emperor.

The Emperor still looks calm and composed. I'm afraid only the Lord of Mankind can see the whole truth.

Now, all the chess players have been eliminated, but Jianqi still sits firmly in his position as the chess player beside the chessboard.

With his wisdom and powerful psychic powers, the Lord of Mankind was able to glimpse the plans of the Lord of Change.

First, Tzeentch made deals with all three.

One is that Malcador, who is still in the Empire, is promised the power to fight against the Lord of Mankind, but the price is to make Malcador think that it is a betrayal and profit in the future battle of Comoros.

In Malcador's imagination, if he carried out his plan and introduced Slaanesh into Commorros, Tzeentch would definitely jump out to disrupt the situation. Malcador also had a backup plan for this, but he did not expect that Tzeentch was also connected with Slaanesh and directly interrupted the emperor's plan.

In front of the four gods who have been playing the same game with each other for tens of millions of years, the newcomer is clearly unqualified.

The second is Slaanesh. The connection and tacit understanding between Chaos let Slaanesh know that when he broke the veil and tested Hades this time, Tzeentch would definitely be involved.

And by peeking at the thread of fate, Slaanesh knew that after invading the physical world, his next stop would be Commorros.

There are a large number of eldar souls in Commorragh. Even if one is seriously injured while playing with Hades, he can quickly recover and replenish his strength through Commorragh.

Slaanesh is not afraid of the coming of death brought about by the annihilation of the Eldar. Apart from Commorragh, the Eldar also have branches in other worlds. There is also a large number of Death Army and Harlequin Troupe led by Higodz, hiding in the Webway.

The Master of Desire thought well...

But between Slaanesh and the Emperor, Tzeentch played another hidden card -

【God of Laughter】.

On the cards, the tears under the clown's eyes are crystal clear.

The third trader hiding in the shadows.

The Laughing God Heegochi bowed to the Lord of Change, just to finish telling the last joke and complete the Eldar's revenge on Slaanesh as a crippled race.

He might have had many other ways, but the Lord of Change could promise the funniest joke.

Slaanesh will be confined by his own desires, with no buffer between survival and desire. Every time he devours an Eldar, he is one step closer to his own destruction.

The Laughing God could not command all the Eldar, so he found Tzeentch and borrowed the Emperor's knife. From beginning to end, the Laughing God Tzeentch only did two things.

One is to unite with Tzeentch in the treaty against Malcador, provide Commorragh's psychic trajectory, and interfere with the manipulation of the Primarch Konrad to open Commorragh's full-domain Blackrock Spire.

The second is to appear before Slaanesh, tell the youngest queen his true situation, and bring the entire troupe of clowns to Comoros.

At this point, the Laughing God, who the [Emperor] believed to be imprisoned by Tzeentch, had finished telling his joke.

But the Laughing God's joke was not successful. As the master of transactions, the weaver of fate, the Lord of Change played a trick. The souls of the Eldar "spitted out" by Slaanesh would never be recovered.

At this point, all three parties lose.

There is also the evil taste of the Lord of Change in this. The arrow that the Pale Lord stabbed at Slaanesh had wings that could sense the wind direction provided by Tzeentch, while the actual arrowhead that caused the disease was provided by Nurgle. The poison from Nurgle will corrode Slaanesh endlessly.

Slaanesh also has the possibility of being cured. Perhaps if He returns Aisha to Nurgle, the merciful Nurgle will consider treating her.

But Slaanesh would never hand over Aisha - even if he eventually perished.

For this is Slaanesh, the master and slave of desire.

So far,

Tzeentch's first game of chess is over.

For this,

The emperor's evaluation is a bad job.

The Lord of Mankind lowered his eyes, his long, curled eyelashes trembling,
He thought of the bad movies he had seen in the ancient times of mankind, where niche literary and artistic creators were always playing with their own creativity for their own amusement.

The Lord of Change is such an existence. If things can be complicated, then He will definitely not choose the simple one, play hidden cards, take risks, guess the psychology, and play games with multiple parties. Before the end, each party believes that they will be the winner.

But so what?
Neos calmly looked at Hades who was waiting for an answer in front of him.

Even his Red King knew how to play tricks on the Lord of Change.

No amount of schemes can defeat a righteous fist. The reality is that the Emperor, Slaanesh, the God of Laughter - plus Tzeentch, even if all four of them were tied together, they could not defeat him and Hades combined.

Oh, maybe Pluto should be the main output here.

The Lord of Mankind witnessed the battle between Hades and Slaanesh, and he had never felt so good. If he really absorbed faith for ten thousand years, perhaps he could also make Them cry.

But that might have many limitations. Now there was a real Pluto standing in front of him, and Neos was in a good mood.

He only needs to defend against the Lord of Change's last move.

"Slaanesh will lead the Eldar."

The Emperor said calmly that Slaanesh, who controlled Commorragh and Aisha, certainly had this power, but Hades in front of him showed a terrified expression again.

"It's complicated,"

The Lord of Mankind said, "No need to say anything, Hades, just do what you want."

Neos was already impatient to watch the Necron technology attack on Commorragh, and he might as well prepare a little snack to go with it.

The Emperor saw Hades glance quickly at Malcador, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Oh, Machado.

The Lord of Mankind was in a better mood. The conceited emperor finally suffered his first setback on Tzeentch's chessboard.
It’s okay, there will be a next time.

The fall allowed Malcador to speak more peacefully to the Lord of Mankind - perhaps realizing that if he wanted to achieve his goals, he would have to stand on the shoulders of the Imperium.

This will make the emperor correct his attitude.

And as of now, the Lord of Mankind thought that the Emperor and Slaanesh still got one thing wrong.

Perhaps Tzeentch doesn't know either.

Of course they wouldn't know.

That was his firstborn, the Lion, the king of the forest.

The lion will never let him down.

The Emperor was in a good mood and closed his microphone. He listened to Hades's question without any explanation.
If he had Hades' ability, he wouldn't even say a word. He would just raise his fist and smash it, and the problem would be solved.

With this card, you are sure to win.

He had no intention of explaining Tzeentch's hidden card to Hades. The bad script did not require any explanation.

Tzeentch wins?

Look who has become big, scary, and powerful enough to ignore the rules.

The situation is great.

"You should learn to relax,"

Neos has already started thinking about planets with good scenery.

"I understand the pain you feel when Slaanesh kisses you."

In response to being called an obscene name, Neos jokingly said,
"But you're doing well - go for it, Hades. If you're in doubt..."

The Emperor was silent for a moment, and finally decided to trust his good Primarchs.
"You can ask Mortarion - the millennia in the gardens shaped him."

------------

【small theater】

[After Hades leaves]

Mortarion's eyes moved back and forth between Buzz and Black, as if he was playing some kind of spot the differences game, and Buzz felt that the corners of his mouth were about to swell.

[You are... the son of Pluto who returned with Hades? ]

"Yes."

Blake answered honestly,
Mortarion stroked his chin thoughtfully. This voice... couldn't be wrong.

He had heard him once in a waaagh.

I have heard your voice.

"Although I don't know when you and I have met, it is my honor, sir."

Mortarion did not attempt to explain.

........................

[After the juniors were taken away by Vox, only the patients were left in the ward]

"Hey,"

Karas stared at the ceiling and suddenly spoke,
"Mortarion...what did you see when the Dark Prince was staring at you?"

【I saw what He wanted me to see.】

The Primarch replied calmly, lying without changing his expression. He had seen enough in the garden, and his first half of life was a true portrayal of suffering, which distorted the illusion fabricated by Slaanesh -

Mortarion never believed that he could experience anything "good".

[A beautiful illusion, it is indeed more attractive than the manure in the garden - what do you see, Karas?]

Karas sneered.
"I saw me kick that idiot into a pile of burning documents."

【…】

[This is not a good excuse for you to give me the documents in your hand, Karas, but perhaps we can rest together for a while. I think our good friend will be back soon.]

“I’m not going to approve it.”

【Oh. 】

..............................

[Pluto is teleported back, his armor is stained with the golden light of the emperor]

"Old Mo!"

Hades shouted, naturally pulling out a document from the pile of documents. The two people who were startled by Hades's black domain both held their breath.
"The Lord of Mankind said that Slaanesh would lead the Eldar... Do you know why?"

【…】

Mortarion believed that he felt pain, but he was unwilling to express his inner suffering. Ten thousand years of experience had taught him to accept it with pleasure, but the Primarch still felt a long and desperate pain.

After he struggled to climb out of the swamp of Slaanesh's desire, his biological father still easily, conveniently, and without hesitation made him accept areas that he completely did not understand.

But Mortarion was strong enough not to react to it any further. Amid the buzzing of flies in the garden, the most valuable thing the Primarch had learned was to ignore, mentally ignore those existences.

His father, who mentally neglected him, is still alive.

【I guess my genetic father left the interpretation of this to me.】

Mortarion said calmly, "Do you think I would know?"

"..."

Hades was silent for a moment.

"Old Deng fooled me!?!"

On the bright side, Mortarion thought calmly, Hades thought he would know...apparently the Hades always chose to believe him.

"E Zha! You're right!!! - I'm going to pick up my knife and go look for the yellow-skinned guy again!"

Do you think he will tell you?

The Primarch sneered that, unfortunately, Hades also had a completely unnecessary and unwarranted trust in the Lord of Mankind.
