The Sun King's Evidence

Although his face was expressionless and impassive, Magnus's words actually touched upon the deepest concern in the Emperor's heart.

Is the Emperor a god?

It no longer matters whether he is a god or not.

What's important is that after the Emperor entered the Golden Throne, he had already become a "god" in the hearts of everyone in the empire.

This concept has been continuously strengthened for ten thousand years and has become deeply ingrained in the concepts of almost everyone in the entire human empire. The emperor knows very well that after ten thousand years, the belief in the God-Emperor Religion has not only become the sentiment of all citizens of the empire. The bond of sustenance and unity has even become the basis for the survival of the human empire.

The Emperor's teachings have been forgotten by everyone, but this is not difficult to understand. The Emperor once promulgated the Imperial Truth - an ideological system and method of understanding the world that integrates reason, science and secularism. To guide the progress of mankind and prove the legitimacy of mankind’s eventual domination of all things.

But obviously, the Imperial truth is just a lie to ordinary people, a pragmatic lie. Its function is only to bring scientific guidance to mankind before the completion of the Webway project expected by the Emperor, and to protect mankind from The means of chaos erosion.

A lie of pragmatism is also a lie. Once mortals find out that believing in Chaos will lead to eternal life and that believing in Chaos will give you whatever you want, the Imperial Truth will be abandoned by many people at an extremely fast speed.

Moreover, it is obvious that the Imperial Truth is too difficult to understand, not for a Master of Mankind like the Emperor, a Primarch like Magnus, a Custodian of the Emperor or a Septon Astartes. Transformation warriors are not even elites like the Supreme Lords Council, the Tribunal, and the Imperial Generals. As long as they are enlightened properly, they can understand the truth of the Empire and the painstaking efforts of the Emperor.

Those who truly have difficulty understanding the truth of the Empire are the mortal beings of the entire Galactic Human Empire.

The public is always ignorant. Compared with painstaking teachings and countless efforts to understand the truth of the empire, the imperial state religion that promotes the emperor as a god, blind obedience and sacrifice to the emperor, and promotes superstition and dogma is far more valuable than the imperial truth. It is easy for the public to accept and fall into fanaticism.

The ignorant masses were told that only faith in the God-Emperor could protect them now. It was the religious devotion to the Emperor, the collective belief of mankind in the God-Emperor that strengthened the Emperor's psychic projection in the Warp, allowing him to fight against Chaos. destructive influence and granting his servants psychic powers against demons, xenos, and heretics.

Therefore, with the Emperor entering the Golden Throne and no longer able to speak and issue decrees, it was only natural that the Cult of the God-Emperor would replace Imperial Truth.

Nowadays, the worship of the Emperor and the use of faith in the Emperor not only provide spiritual comfort to all mankind, but also can realistically serve as an effective means to combat the increasingly rampant Daemons of Chaos.

And now the Emperor is facing this dilemma. Ten thousand years have passed. This is not something that a few people or the Emperor's will can change. Even if the Emperor is the true god who can challenge the four gods of chaos, for this There is nothing he can do. As long as he dares to touch this, he will pry the foundation of the crumbling empire on the spot and personally push the human empire, which has been struggling for ten thousand years, into the abyss of civil war and destruction!

But this is not what the Emperor wants. He knows what consequences humanity will face if it continues on this path of blind worship.

To put it simply, if the Emperor admits that he is a god, then sooner or later the Human Empire will take a pill.

But if the Emperor publicly states that he is not a god, then the Human Empire will take a pill now.

Magnus is also very clear about this. Don't look at the magical little Magnu who laughs and laughs all day long. After all, the Red Son is a knowledgeable Primarch. He has an extremely deep understanding of this issue, so he is just waiting to see the joke!

Thinking of this, the Lord of Mankind finally frowned. After this incident, the Emperor immediately recalled Luojia urgently and decided not to give this soul a chance to leave Terra. At the same time, he sent out the Imperial Army to specially By sending his own sword, the Emperor's Sword, to the front lines and giving it to Guilliman, the Lord of Mankind sent a very powerful signal of his trust in the Supreme Regent. At the same time, the Emperor immediately sent orders to the Living Saint. Celestine and the Imperial Ecclesiarchy emphasized the reason why the Primarch did this - because Guilliman had a father-like respect and love for the Lord of Mankind. In Guilliman's eyes, the Emperor was not a god, but his. Father.

oh! Understand, it turns out that it is our noble Primarch and the Supreme Regent of the Empire, Guilliman, who has not yet realized his "divinity". He is a war apostle of the Imperial State Sect who went to "assist" Guilliman in his expedition. , the understanding of the mortal priest Mathieu.

From the beginning to the end, the Lord of Humanity still did not directly answer whether he was a god.

The power of the Emperor's Sword cannot be described in words. Gaining the affirmation and trust of the Lord of Mankind also gave Guilliman complete independent command and the power to order the Imperial Army. The Supreme Regent of the Empire gathered his mood and continued his work. The Indomitable Crusade.

Luo Jia was called back, cursed and put into solitary confinement.

The throne room became quiet again. The Emperor was obviously thinking about whether his handling was appropriate and correct, but there was no doubt that compared to Lorgar, Guilliman was the more valuable and useful one. The leader of the Indomitus Crusade and the future He was needed and he was already the only one of the Primarchs who came close to the Emperor in internal affairs and who could fully understand his will.

"Father? Are you listening?" Magnus was secretly happy when he saw the Emperor's rare embarrassment. He said mysteriously: "Oh, my father, you have given Guilliman such great trust and honor. You also gave him your sword to use, you are so biased! So biased! I think you have to be careful, a guy who dreams of becoming a war commander will not just sit idly by and watch!"

"Shut your stinking mouth, Magnus, or I'll help you!" Of course the Emperor knew who Magnus was talking about.

If he were not here, maybe Jonson would really take action against Guilliman, but with the Emperor here, there was no need to think about that for now.

Seeing that the Emperor was not affected by him, Magnus picked up a book at hand and began to chant along with the words in the book with a smirk: "Hey, I think your will should be like this: 'I will give you alone. With the title of Supreme Regent, I will grant you the title of First Prince, Second Good King, Three Loyal King, Four Jin King, Five Virtue King, and Six Respecting King. You will not join the King in the upper palace and the King in the lower palace. I will also give you the Emperor's sword to kill the faint king. , beheaded the slanderous officials, suppressed the Supreme Lord Council and the Tribunal of Civil and Military officials, which of them are disrespectful? You are the Eight Wise King, take care of me!'"

"..." The Emperor did not answer Magnus's words.

Seeing that his father did not answer, Magnus immediately picked up the other side of the book and muttered to it: "Prince Heshuo Zhuang Senyan, Old Thirteen, although you have many generals and powerful generals in the Blue Banner, everyone Let you be the regent, but don't forget that it is the original body that governs the government. If you want to change the system, it depends on everyone's will. Where do you put us? I think you want to be everyone's emperor. Ma?!"

The next second, a giant fist composed of the Emperor's light and supreme power hit Magnus directly in the face, shattering his nose and teeth, and even dislocating his jaw. .

The Emperor's Fist shone in the throne room, and Magnus's face was blasted into a ball of mud under the fist of the Lord of Mankind in the rising flames. The golden flames made the power of the magical little mag tremble, and Terrified.

"Uuuuuu~" Magnus's mouth was bleeding, his tongue was smashed, and he couldn't speak.

The Lord of Mankind retracted his fist, and his attention was already focused on the next thing.

It's almost time to go to Ryan's side.

Primaris Gray Knights, mature.

…………I am the dividing line of friendship is the magic little magic grid……

Imperial Calendar 2513, early January, Blackwater Bay, off the coast of the Prince of Myrmidon, the Western Border Prince's Territory, the flagship of the Kingdom of Britannia, the Landuin.

The Chivalry Army returned here and was escorted by the Poseidon Fleet and the armored ships of Haimen Pass. Many of the warships had very deep water lines. Above the ocean, everyone was extremely vigilant. The expeditionary force obtained the Bafeng Mountain. Fortune, the victory of the Eight Peaks Mountain Expedition has gradually become known to the entire old world, so the knight army did not dare to delay at Haimen Pass, but immediately set off and returned to Britannia.

The water in Blackwater Bay is relatively calm, the sun shines on the iron-gray sea, and the bone-chilling sea breeze blows across the deck along with the howling wind. Like the vast land of the Badlands, it embodies an indescribable and mysterious feeling. The vitality gives people a profound feeling of transcending nature.

Ryan stood on the deck of the Landuin. The king was in a very happy mood. The victory of the Great Expedition and the rich wealth gained gave the king the capital to truly unify his kingdom. The god of the Lake Fairy The chosen champion was wearing a king's dress, leaning against the side of the ship, enjoying the biting sea breeze. Sailors and knights were coming and going on the deck, but no one came to disturb him, which made him even more happy.

The king waved behind him.

Ryan's personal maid Orica was standing behind him. The dark elf was obviously in a very happy mood. Today she was wearing a Begonia lace bud elegant black gauze waist long skirt, with a classical blue and white silk cloak on the outside. A pair of slender, straight legs were exposed from the slit in the skirt, wrapped in black semi-sheer velvet pantyhose, and her silk feet were wearing strappy high-heeled shoes. For more than ten years, Olika has been accompanying Ryan like this. Unknowingly, Ryan has regarded Olica as an integral part of himself.

Although the life experience of this dark elf is still not completely clear, Ryan has never doubted Orica's loyalty to him. The power of the spirit pattern is absolute, and Orica... seems to have received some affirmation and approval from the emperor.

Hey, hey, hey... It seems that only Surya and Orica are recognized by the emperor now... I always think Lilith will cry! Ryan thought so.

Seeing Ryan waving, Olica walked obediently to Ryan and was embraced by him. The dark elf leaned in the arms of the King of Knights and watched the sea with him.

As for Veronica? The Witch of Gloria is still sleeping on the comfortable and soft bed in the king's suite. She is really exhausted, in every sense of the word.

"Master, what are you thinking about?" Olica leaned into Ryan's arms and whispered: "Every time you do this, you are thinking about something. Since you want to think about it, you might as well say it. I may be able to give you some advice. "

"I'm thinking about what else I can do for this country and this world." Ryan said softly: "The Eight Peaks Mountain Expedition is over, and I seem to have suddenly lost my short-term goals."

"Master, you still have a lot of things to do, you can't rest now." Olika whispered, her body had a strong sweet smell, which made Ryan couldn't help but kiss her a few times: "Ha , In fact, I can’t do anything I want to do. After several rounds of battles, the entire Knight Kingdom’s army has been exhausted. Even if I want to, I won’t have the energy in the next few years.”

"Master, what you have to do now is to integrate the power of the entire kingdom." Olika continued: "It is not appropriate to launch any major wars in the next few years. Even for us Druzi, if the losses are too large, the Witch The king will also order a temporary cessation of the attack on Ulthuan. Of course, except for the city of Hal Gansi and the crazy woman in the city palace - the bride of Kane, the witch Heliben, who is always there. Longing for the art of killing and the blood dedicated to the Bloody Hand God, fortunately, Hal-Ganxi is located on the front line of the north against the barbarian tribes and Chaos Demons. The Bloody Hand God's desire to kill is not difficult to satisfy, and she is one year old. She spends most of her time as an old woman, her face aging and her strength fading.”

Ryan nodded slightly when he heard this. Dark elves are such a race, there is nothing surprising.

As for the relationship between the dark elves and the northern barbarians, it is very complicated to say. In order to defend against the attacks of the northern barbarians, the dark elves built a series of permanent fortresses and watchtowers along the north. Even so, the threat of the northern barbarians still never stopped. It has not stopped. The Chaos tribes blessed by the evil gods have been paying staggering losses every year in an attempt to approach Nagaros. According to Orika, the largest source of slaves in the famous dark elf slave city of Karl-Karonde is the northern barbarians. people.

Yes, many people have the inherent impression that the orderly humans in the south are unbearable, and the barbarians in the north are martially virtuous. This is actually wrong. In fact, the combat effectiveness of ordinary barbarian raiders from Norsca and the northern barbarians is about the same as that of the Empire. The provincial infantry is about the same, just a little stronger than the serf infantry of Britannia.

The reason that really leaves this impression is that the people of the Empire, Britannia, and the southern countries use the power of order to ensure that the old, weak, sick, and disabled can find their place in society. For the northern barbarians, , only the strong can survive and then invade south. Humans in the south cannot see the truly weak northerners, and the empire is not necessarily safer than Norsca. For example, the Nords are famous for being barbaric, and Mrs. Keesler is famous for fighting tribe.

But the dark elves are a true symbol of martial virtue. From time to time, they dare to take the initiative to attack the north to plunder barbarian prisoners of war and turn them into slaves.

What makes Ryan speechless is that occasionally the dark elves will negotiate peace and alliance with the northern barbarians under the leadership of Witch Queen Morathi, and go to Ulthuan or the old world to plunder.

However, the Dark Elf is very similar to the Chaos Tribe. Neither side is the kind of race that holds grudges or cares about losses. They will do whatever they don’t like, and they will beat others together when they don’t like each other. It is said that the Witch Queen Morathi and the Chaos Evil God There is a contract and a lot of connections. The Joy Sect she formed seems to have been secretly spreading Chaos corruption. This is what Orika said.

The two stood on the side of the ship and chatted for a while. Olika leaned against Ryan with attachment. The dark elf only felt that the time with her master was so wonderful, and she really wished that time stopped at this moment.

"Your Majesty Ryan." But after all, the king was just taking a break from his busy work. Soon, an attendant came over and told the news: "There is something you need to decide."

"What's the matter?" Ryan gently let go of Olika.

"Beria, the captain of the Ugor Cavalry, wants to tell you something. He hopes to replenish and expand the size of the Cavalry. At the same time, he also has some suggestions to tell you."

"Okay, let him come to the hall to see me."
