Chapter 725: The Emperor's Most Rational Son

Chapter 725: The Emperor's Most Rational Son
Xernos Bloodcurse is not a small character. His status in the family is decent and he is considered a middle-level cadre anyway.

He is not ignorant. With a lifespan of over a thousand years and countless experiences in looting, he can be considered knowledgeable.

If there is anything in the Infinite Star Domain that can be considered an important target, it is of course the reason why this star domain got its name: the Infinite Battle Group.

According to legend, there is a prophecy:

[The youngest son of the evil god who advocates rationality the most will return to the human world in the End Era to decide the final fate of the spirit race.]

This prophecy is quite intriguing. Each element needs to be chewed over a bit to understand its meaning, and there are many different interpretations.

Who is the 'youngest evil god'?
That was obviously not the three ancient ones in the warp. In the past, it was generally believed to be Slaanesh, the fourth evil god who rose at the cost of the demise of the Eldar Empire, the overlord of the universe.

But if it's Slaanesh, doesn't she have a famous 'rational son'?

Hard to tell.

It is impossible to expect to find one among the Slaanesh Daemons and Demon Princes who can be called "rational" in an absolute sense. It is laughable that the Slaanesh Daemons who pursue indulgence, recklessness, and ecstasy can advocate rationality.

However, if we pay attention to the word "most", it seems that it can be interpreted as picking a general from a group of short people in comparison. It is not impossible to find someone who advocates rationality in a relative sense.

This is one aspect of the interpretation.

Another interpretation is that the youngest evil god refers to the ascended emperor of mankind.

But is he already at the level of the Four Gods of the Subspace?
There is debate among the Eldar themselves about this and no one is sure.

But if we put aside the debate and believe that he is the fifth Lord of the Warp, then the word "son" is very representative, that is, the legion commanders who commanded the various Space Marine Legions when the Empire was founded. Each of them is a demigod created by the Emperor according to his own genetic template. Each regiment is a "degraded version" created further according to the genes of these demigods.

In theory, every demigod is immortal and the son of the Emperor, and now can be called the Son of God.

As for the one who "most advocates rationality", it is a little hard to say, but it is generally believed that it is the former commander of the Infinite Legion.

It is said that they have immortality, but after the Emperor ascended to heaven, his sons gradually died or disappeared due to various reasons and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Only this commander of the Infinite Legion presided over the splitting of the Space Marine Legions into smaller chapters that year, compiled the "Space Marine Codex", a book that is regarded as a bible, and once became the regent of the Empire, ruling the Empire for quite a long time.

But in a war, he was struck by a fatal sword from the Demon Prince and his life was in danger.

His subordinates could only put him in a static position to save his life for the time being.

The only effect of the static stance is that time will no longer flow within the stance. The regent saved his life, but he was forever stuck in the moment of imminent danger.

The method to cancel the static stance is not difficult, but once it is cancelled, he will quickly meet death.

He has been on Ultra Star, the home planet of the Infinite Corps, for nearly 10,000 years. During these 10,000 years, the Infinite Corps has been constantly trying to find a way to save their Gene Father. There have been some results, but with a low success rate, who would dare to take a gamble?

So, until now, the Regent remains in this state.

Regardless of other interpretations, quite a few people believe that the person in the prophecy is Robert, the former regent of mankind, the son of the Emperor, and the genetic father of the Infinite Legion. According to the prophecy, he will wake up in the End Era? Is it related to the Eldar?
What is the End Era?
What will be the fate of the Eldar?

The interpretations of these things are even more varied and difficult to define.

Not only are the interpretations of the prophecy different, but the top leaders of the various families in Comoros also have different attitudes towards this prophecy.

Even though the prophecy came from the Witch Spirit Cult and was made by the oldest Great Witch Spirit who had lived for tens of thousands of years, not every archon of every family believed it.

Comoros is a cold-blooded city full of conspiracies. Who knows if this prophecy was fabricated by the Witch Cult with the help of some unspeakable secrets?
If you believe it, won’t you fall into a trap?
The struggles between the various families within Comoros were no less complex and complicated than the political struggles on Holy Terra, and were even more intense and bloody.

Once you make a mistake, there will be no recovery.

Some non-believers completely ignore this message, some strongly oppose it, and some pretend to believe it and use this prophecy to do something else.

Some people also believed it.

But after believing, it does not mean that everyone has a unified opinion and action plan. Some people think that they should be used, some think that they should be destroyed in advance, some think that they should actively establish contact, and some think...

There are too many, both true and false.

Xernos himself could not clearly discern the thoughts of his fellow tribesmen.

He was even not sure what his Blood Curse Family really thought about the prophecy.

But one thing is certain, the Blood Curse Family is one of the top families that is most interested in and most proactive in terms of prophecy.

They united many allies and made many arrangements and plans.

These arrangements even lasted for hundreds or thousands of years.

Xernos was only responsible for a very small part of the whole process - the trade blockade against the Infinite Star Region.

It is not entirely possible to lock down the Infinite Star Domain with military force, that is unrealistic. Even if the Blood Curse Family has such power, they are absolutely unwilling to use it to fight against the powerful Infinite War Group, and the final result will definitely be to be crushed.

They adopted an overall strategy of raiding warfare.

They did not attack the Infinite Star Domain directly, but basically surrounded the Infinite Star Domain and attacked those ships that traded and transported with the Infinite Star Domain.

Decentralized looting is the method that the Dark Eldar are best at, and it makes the Infinite Star Field and Infinite War Group seem quite at a loss.

Even now, they are still not sure whether the actions of the Dark Eldar are directed at them.
