Warhammer 40k: Terra Collector

Except for a few [Homeworlds] near [Homeworld], the Blueskins abandoned most of the colonial planets... and gathered all their armed forces at the heart of the Tau Empire. ɱ

On the one hand, this approach is due to the terrifying pressure brought by the empire.

On the other hand, the armies gathered near [Homeworld]... are also brewing a civil war that could split the entire [Tau Empire].

Since learning about the existence of the "Greater Good", the relationship between the two powerful parties, "Ti Lord" and "Ether", has become increasingly tense.

Although both sides exercised great restraint without causing much friction, the blue-skins who support those in power do not have such great patience.

[The Greater Good] is the bottom line that cannot be touched for the entire Blue Skin Empire.

The entire [Tau Empire] was split into two parts due to the differences between the Tau Lord and the Ether.

Since the founding of the Tau Empire, [Ether] has always regarded itself as the spokesperson of the [Greater Good].

For the blueskins, the status of every ether is extremely respected! Nearly 70% of Lans chose Ether, the spokesperson for the "Greater Good", in this dispute over rights.

And similarly, [Titanium King], who has been committed to innovating systems and technology, also has his own die-hard loyalists and fans!

Compared with the supporters of [Ether], although the blue skins supporting Titanium Lord do not have an advantage in quantity! But in terms of quality, it can be crushed perfectly.

Most of [Ether]’s supporters are ordinary blue-skinned civilians! Even if it occupies 70% of the terrifying number, it is destined to be unable to make too big a splash.

On the other hand, most of the supporters of [Ti Lord] are the elites of various clans! Scientists, captains, commanders and even military leaders have all the decisions made by the Tau!

The relationship between various forces within the [Tau Empire] is becoming increasingly tense!

The peaceful and peaceful [Home World] in the past has been filled with a strong smell of gunpowder for some time...

And [Lion King] Ryan, who has been eyeing the entire [Tau Empire] with covetous eyes, will ignite the fuse that detonates this war! ! !

…

Surrounded by Azrael and Ezekiel, the Primarch wearing [Lion Armor] took an ancient elevator and arrived at a certain area in the deepest part of the [Unyielding Truth].

What appears in front of [Lion King] is a [Silver Door] branded with countless symbols of purity! !

The [Purity Emblem] imprinted on it comes from the Great Crusade ten thousand years ago. Since the tragic [Randan War]... this door has been sealed in countless seals for thousands of years.

And today, it’s time for the relics sealed behind the [Silver Gate] to shine again for the great empire!

After thousands of complex [Rune Verifications], the identity authentication system installed inside [Silver Gate] confirmed the identity of the Lion King.

The silver door branded with the [Purity Emblem] suddenly opened! !

In a darkness as thick as thick ink, tens of thousands of ancient creations from the [Dark Age of Technology] or even the [Golden Age] are quietly sealed.

The sealed place located deep in the "Unyielding Truth" is even more terrifying than the "Forbidden Room" inside the "Stone Fortress".

Relying on memories from ten thousand years ago, [Lion King] Ryan passed through insignificant creations... and came straight to a dusty mechanical device.

Compared with other ancient creations sealed in the [Station of Stasis], this dusty mechanical device looks unremarkable.

But as a witness to this machine, [Lion King] Ryan is very aware of the terror and destruction hidden under its plainness.

This mediocre machine can be traced back to the glorious [Golden Age]! !

The [Iron Man Rebellion] that nearly destroyed the entire human race has come to an end, but the impact it left on this galaxy... has not completely faded to this day.

This machine stores a code called the [Supreme Agreement]!

This [virus code] that gave birth to intelligent machines with autonomous consciousness was the culprit that led to the [Iron Man Rebellion].

Shortly after the [Unification War] ended, the great Emperor launched the glorious [Great Crusade] towards the vast sea of ​​​​stars!

During that expedition, Ryan once faced a group of out-of-control iron men on a remote planet in the [Storm Star Territory].

That war was one of the wars [Lion King] least wanted to recall.

Facing an out-of-control iron man with less than four figures, the [Dark Angels] paid nearly 10,000 horrific casualties...

For the entire empire, the existence of [Iron Man] is a complete taboo!

Even the [Steel Hand], who is committed to transforming his body into a machine, absolutely dare not cross this red line.

But at this moment, Ryan plans to re-enact the terrifying [Iron Man Rebellion] in the [Tau Empire] established by the blueskins!

…

With the acquiescence of [Lion King], the code of [Suzheng Protocol] was uploaded to a certain [Intelligent Center] in the Tau Empire in an extremely secretive way.

The moment this string of virus code comes into contact with intelligent machinery, the size of the code itself begins to multiply at a terrifying speed! !

In just a few Terra Hours, the [Supreme Protocol] code has infected more than one-tenth of [Homeworld].

Earth clan scientists have noticed this code of unknown origin!

The data stored in this code far exceeds the understanding of the blueskins.

No matter what methods the blue-skinned scientists used, they were still unable to remove the virus data from the central network.

The [Supreme Protocol] code has been wreaking havoc in the blue network for nearly half a month, but at a certain moment...the virus code that left scientists helpless suddenly disappeared.

Because it did not cause substantial damage to Lanpi's network, except for a very small number of researchers... most scientists have forgotten the horror of this code over a long period of time.

About two Terran years later, the intelligent center located inside the home world [Sky Hall] was suddenly invaded by some unknown force.

Almost in a very short time, the [automatic drone] controlled by the [intelligent center] fell into a violent state that did not distinguish between friend and foe.

All the blue-skinned people within the sight of the [automaton bees] have become the attack targets of this group of cold machines...

As early as when [Ether] first came to this land, this group of hypocritical [Randan Aliens] had already brought intelligent technology to the blue screens.

After thousands of years of improvement and development by Earth clan scientists, intelligent machines like [automatic drones]... have long been integrated into every aspect of Tau people's lives.

It ranges from handling housework and maintaining law and order, to manipulating various affairs of the [Tau Empire] and assisting Fire Caste warriors in combat...

In the past few centuries, there has never been a single mistake in the scale of more than 10 billion [automatic bees]! !

Therefore, the vast majority of Tau people would not have any precautions against the existence of [Robot Bee].

Even the craziest blue-skinned man can never imagine a future where the [automatic drones] will rebel.

It is precisely because of this unreserved trust that the betrayal of the drones brought horrific casualties to the [Tau Empire].

The [Security Team] responsible for maintaining security in the home world does not have any powerful weapons of destruction to use against these cold machines.

The only good thing is that the Fire Caste army stationed on the home world quickly sent support to the area where the riot occurred.

Although the rioting [Automata] are equipped with a certain number of weapons, these weapons can only bully unarmed civilians.

Facing the Fire Caste warriors wearing [Powered Armor], the small-caliber weapons and various cold weapons carried by the intelligent machines... were unable to have the slightest killing effect.

In the fifth hour after the riot broke out, the out-of-control [automaton wasps] were blown to pieces by the organized Fire Caste warriors.

The riot that swept the entire home world has temporarily subsided!

However, the pain and hidden dangers left by the riot have not completely dissipated with the fall of [Automated Drone]...

In just a few hours, more than hundreds of millions of blue-skinned people died in the riot of [automaton bees]!

In addition to a large number of civilians and businessmen, among these unlucky ghosts who were torn to pieces by the drones... there was even a high-ranking [Ether]!

Nearly a thousand years have passed since the birth of the [Tau Empire].

For the blue-skinned people who believe in the "Greater Good", the death of every ether is a major event that can shock the entire empire.

[Ti Lord] and the rest of the [Ethers] received the news immediately.

In a normal sense, the riots of the [automaton bees] can only be attributed to natural disasters!

But today, the relationship between [Ether] and [Titanium Lord] is becoming increasingly tense! Any slight disturbance within the Tau Empire may become the trigger for a complete war.

Neither the Tau Lord nor the Ether want to see the precarious [Tau Empire] fall into civil strife again.

The leaders of the [Tau Empire] arrived at the scene as quickly as possible.

[Ether] A bloody corpse lay on its back on the ground...

The followers of both sides used this corpse as a boundary and began to confront each other in a tense manner.

Although [Tau Lord] and [Ether] are both rulers of the [Tau Empire], they have completely different priorities.

The peaceful and peaceful [Ether] is responsible for spreading the great ideas of [The Greater Good].

The [Tau Lord], who has a strategic vision, is responsible for controlling various livelihood and war matters in the [Tau Empire].

From the official completion of the [Sky Hall] to this moment, the [Intelligent Center] of the home world has always been firmly in the hands of Lord Titanium and his followers.

It is precisely because of this that the followers of [Ether] believe that the riot sweeping the entire home world is caused by [Ti Lord]!

As for the purpose of [Ti-Jun], it is easy to guess! !

For the followers of [Ether], the sanctimonious [Tau Lord] definitely wants to take advantage of this riot...to weaken the influence of the Ethers on [Tau Empire].

Similarly, followers of [Tau Lord] also believed that this riot was caused by [Ether].

Most of the Earth clan members responsible for maintaining the [Intelligent Center] are followers of [Ether]. If these guys want to do something secretly... no one will be able to find out.

Therefore, the followers of [Titanic Lord] believe that this so-called drone riot is just a drama directed and performed by the [Ethers] themselves!

The purpose is naturally to pour a basin of dirty water on the rising [Titanium Lord].

The followers of both sides held their own opinions, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

Before the confrontation completely evolved into an unmanageable bloody conflict, the Titanium King, surrounded by a team of Fire Clan, stood up.

"Be quiet!" Titanium King frowned, "You are all citizens of the Titanium Empire who believe in the [Greater Good]. The weapons in your hands should be aimed at the enemies of the Greater Good, not your compatriots."

Although [Titanium King] usually behaves peacefully, after all... he is also the king of a race!

In the face of the majesty from the king, even the supporters of the Ether could not help but bow down.

Titanium King and the Ethers each restrained their followers, which eased the smell of gunpowder in the air a little...

Through the mouth of the Fire Clan commander who came to support, Titanium King and the Ethers roughly understood the details of the turmoil.

The faces of those in power became gloomy almost at the same time! !

As the rulers of the Tau Empire, the Tau King and the Ethers are certainly not as innocent as ordinary people.

From behind this strange riot, the blue-skinned rulers smelled a malicious conspiracy.

In order to prevent the [Tau Empire] from falling into the abyss of civil strife and to prevent the conspiracy hidden in the dark from succeeding, the Tau King and the Ethers have retained the maximum restraint on this riot.

The two parties who originally disliked each other temporarily put aside their prejudices against each other and planned to use all their strength to thoroughly investigate this strange riot!

If the [Tau Empire] can really put aside their prejudices completely, then this group of blue skins may really be able to detect the plans of the Imperial Regent and the Lion King.

But unfortunately, they no longer have the opportunity to put aside their prejudices! !

...

The Imperial Regent has already led the [Death Watch] fleet to the Damocles Gulf!

Through the thread of fate that spreads throughout the galaxy, everything that happens inside the [Tau Empire] cannot escape the attention of the Imperial Regent.

The choice of the blue-skinned rulers made the Imperial Regent reveal a trace of contempt.

"It seems that these guys are not so stupid!" The Imperial Regent expressed some recognition to Ether and Titanium.

But in order to smoothly implement his plan with the Lion King, the Imperial Regent still intends to crush the hope of these blue skins to unite.

And this requires [Titanium] to make a "small" sacrifice!

A ray of brilliant golden light bloomed in the eyes of the Imperial Regent!

And hidden behind the golden color is a mysterious deep purple...
