Chapter 925, The Road to Becoming a God

Zakaria sat on his throne in a bad mood.

As a Chaos Lord, he is the master of this Disaster Fleet.

The Chaos Army has many Disaster Fleets, which were established under the orders of Archathon, the Eternal Chosen and Chaos Warmaster, against the backdrop of the victory in the Battle of Cartier and the Scarlet Scar tearing the universe apart.

The Disaster Fleet was established with two major goals.

The relatively less important one is moving around the universe, bringing disaster and spreading chaos and corruption.

This is consistent with the vast majority of Chaos forces, Chaos cults, and demonic forces.

In addition to this routine mission, another core task of the Disaster Fleet is to cooperate with a mission given by a being who has reached some kind of cooperation with the Chaos Warmaster, and search for some "things" throughout the universe.

In fact, this intelligence information is very rare. Even for a Chaos Lord like him, the ruler of an entire Disaster Fleet, he does not know many core matters.

The Chaos Warmaster never told them who the so-called partner was, or even whether there was a partner, let alone what the so-called "thing" was.

Many Chaos Lords were very dissatisfied with this, and Zakaria was one of them.

He believed that this was a sign that the Chaos Warmaster did not trust them.

Of course, this is normal.

The Chaos army gathered under Archathon was huge, almost gathering the descendants of all the Space Marine Legions that failed in the civil war, and even the ten thousand year old veterans who survived from the civil war ten thousand years ago. In addition, there were a large number of Chaos believers, servants, and the Dark Mechanicus. It was almost a replica of the Dark Chaos version of the Empire.

But unlike the situation in the Empire, the Chaos warbands that gathered around him - organizations similar to the Space Marine Chapters - had too many ulterior motives in their minds.

They gathered around the Warmaster with various different goals and motives. If they could barely unify their orders, then the Chaos Warmaster would already have great prestige, not to mention wanting to completely bring everyone back to their hearts.

The infighting between the Chaos forces is far more brutal than that of the Human Empire.

In Zakaria's opinion, the Chaos Warmaster was not worthy of loyalty, and he was the most qualified "alpha wolf". However, now that Archathon was powerful, he, the "King of the White Wolf", had to bow his head for the time being.

Even the identity of the leader of the Disaster Fleet was obtained after a lot of open and secret struggles.

Still have to work for Archaton.

He just felt unhappy.

But the reason why we are unhappy and still want to fight for the position of the leader of the Disaster Fleet is because there are real benefits.

After becoming the leader of the Disaster Fleet, many warbands were stuffed in, and he also got a whole fleet for free. This scale is much stronger than his old team, the 'White Wolf Warband'.

Of course, many of them were losers in the competition for the Lord of Disaster. Although they were defeated by him, they were not necessarily convinced in their hearts.
But it didn't matter. Zakaria was very resourceful and ruthless. After taking control of the position of the Overlord, he quickly killed his opponents through exclusion, assassination, threats, and intentional suicide missions. He also used coercion, bribery, and enticement to basically turn the entire Disaster Fleet into his own territory over a period of time, and absorbed it into his own strength.

With the help of the Disaster Fleet, he tried hard to gather many other wolf descendants.

Now, in the current environment, half of the war gangs composed of wolf descendants with relatively more active records have gathered under his command from all sides and joined his disaster fleet.

In Zakaria's ambition, his next goal is to compete for the position of "Wolf King" of the Wolf Pack. He does not want to be limited to being a "White Wolf King", he wants to be the "Lord of the Wolf Pack".

Even so, that is not his limit. When he becomes the 'Lord of the Wolf Pack', he will use the strength of this once-founding legion to compete for the position of Chaos Warmaster.

Of course, this alone is not enough.

The strength of the Wolf Pack is still far behind that of Alchardon's diehards, the former Moon Guards, and today's Dark Legion.

The gap in prestige is even greater.

It's difficult to compete.

Then we have to think of another way.

Now that he has become the master of a disaster fleet, and the one he is in charge of is one of the largest disaster fleets, the solution naturally has to start from the disaster fleet itself.

When assigning tasks to the Disaster Fleet, Alchaton actually never said what they were looking for, nor did he say anything about any entity he was cooperating with. He just gave the action objectives and told them to get to work.

Many leaders of the Disaster Fleet are actually quite perfunctory about their missions.

It is hard to say whether the Chaos Warmaster separated these Disaster Fleets as a way to exclude dissidents. Just see which fleet is disobedient and to what extent, and then see how to deal with it. In each fleet, there are the Warmaster's confidants and monitors. In addition, the Warmaster has reserved enough means to seize power and purge when the domination of the Disaster Fleet is too much.

At that point, it will be easy to distinguish who is truly loyal, who is rebellious, who is a centrist who can be won over, and who is a waverer who must be struck to establish authority...

Using this method, Archathon has cleaned up several Disaster Fleets, eliminated the troublemakers, and eliminated the dissidents who had ill intentions, in exchange for several loyal Disaster Fleets that truly obeyed his command. In his swift and resolute actions, he fully demonstrated his skills as a warmaster and the supreme leader of the Chaos Army.

However, none of these methods have been used on Zakaria.

The Chaos Warmaster knew that this "White Wolf" was not one of his own, and that he was treacherous and ambitious. However, the Disaster Fleet led by Zakaria had always been quite "obedient".

As long as they are assigned a task, they will do it very actively, and they often do it quickly and well, and they are always able to bring back what they need to collect.

This also meant that the Chaos Warmaster could never find an excuse to attack Zakaria.

For Zakaria, being obedient, following the rules, and completing the task quickly and well was not only about not giving Alchaton the opportunity to deal with him, but more importantly, he found out one thing: the things collected were not what Alchaton wanted himself.

He further discovered that Alchadon had reached a cooperation with a great being, perhaps second only to the four in the warp. The formation of so many disaster fleets, even the technology to form the disaster fleets, was obtained from that being.

From this perspective, Zakaria would naturally have some thoughts: If you, Alchaton, can trade with that great being, why can't I, the King of the White Wolf, do the same?

What people want is "things", and they don't mind who gives them.

Rather than having you, the Chaos Warmaster, get in the way, I'd rather sell the items myself for a good price.

Of course, the premise is that Zakaria must also find a way to contact the great being he does not know.

However, he was not worried about this. On the one hand, he also had spies and intelligence sources around Archaton, and he could find a way to find out how to contact that great being.

On the other hand, he could wait for the other party to come to him. As long as his fleet performed the best in finding "things", and as long as that person really valued these "things", then there was no need to worry that the other party would not contact him.

Sure enough, he was right.

Do we expect that a certain being in the subspace is an ally of the highest quality and always keeps his promises?

No one should have such foolish expectations.

Since that being wants to stir up trouble in the real universe, it is natural that he would hope to have power in the real universe that he can personally control.

And when they met a traitor like Zakaria who was willing to surrender and could bypass Alchatun, the two sides hit it off and rushed towards each other.

During the first contact, that being was quite "honest".

He confessed his own strength, and to be honest, it made Zakaria feel fear from the bottom of his heart, which then led to fanaticism.

It is true that Zakaria has thrown himself into the arms of Chaos, but he is different from those Chaos Space Marines who have specifically accepted the blessing of a certain evil god. He has only thrown himself into Chaos, and has not completely turned to any specific evil god.

There are actually many Chaos Space Marines like him. Even the Chaos Warmaster Archadon is the same. Archadon is called the 'Eternal Chosen'. The essence of the concept is that he has received the blessings of the four gods at the same time, but he does not completely obey any single evil god. He represents a deeper power of the essence of chaos. Archadon believes that it is his own will.

Zakaria thought so too, but if there was someone who was really willing to offer a very high price, he would not be unwilling to accept it.

And this great being who displays terrifying power is a good target.

It is true that they are not as powerful as the four real Chaos Evil Gods, but it does not matter. On the contrary, this is actually a good thing.

To be honest, Zakaria sometimes felt disgusted when he saw the group of people in the Pale Death Regiment who had almost completely surrendered to the loving father, with pus all over their bodies and a foul odor; he was also terrified when he saw the insane appearance of the Secret Guards after they completely believed in Slaanesh.

Tzeentch and Khorne are slightly better, but not much better.

He didn't really want to become like that.

Although this new being is not as powerful as the four gods, the relationship between the two sides has changed from subordinates and servants to more equal partners.

This is what Zakaria is quite satisfied with.

Another point is that this person who calls himself "Bassol" is a potential stock.

In addition to being "honest" about the power he possesses, he also explained his purpose very honestly.

He is going to become the fifth evil god in the subspace - if the human false emperor is not counted.

Of course, if the fake emperor must be included, he would have no objection to being the sixth.

Anyway, he was going to be a new god.

Not some lesser god of the warp.

He is now, and can almost be regarded as the most powerful among the lesser gods of the Warp, and the word "one of" does not even need to be used to describe him.

But Bassol was obviously not satisfied with this and he intended to go further.

The conventional path is almost impossible, and the path to becoming a god is blocked to a large extent. Without the full support of someone in the current seat, it is impossible to succeed.

He had no choice but to find another way.

And what he was eyeing was an ancient creation.

Bassor calls himself the 'Creator', and one of the great powers he possesses is in the areas of technology, intelligence, and manufacturing. And what he is pursuing is the creation technology left behind by an ancient race of cosmic overlords.

After mastering it, he will be sure to complete his promotion ceremony and become an existence in the entire subspace, sitting on the same level as the Four Gods and the False Emperor.

Zakaria believed this statement of "I, Qin Shi Huang, send money".

He was not a person who was easily credulous, but the most important thing was that Bassol had already demonstrated his strength to him, which was indeed very exaggerated, making him believe that the other party had the potential to do it, and was really only one step away; in addition, Bassol also clearly gave him many benefits before he started working.

A large number of demon engines and arks of doom were created by Bassol with his boundless divine power and given to Zakaria.

This greatly enhanced the strength of the disaster fleet he controlled.

Bassol said that this would give him powerful strength so that he could better accomplish his mission.

Since the other party is already able to pay the fee in advance, what can't be done?

After that, Zakaria worked even harder to collect information for Bassol.

That dark ancient technology had been shattered into countless pieces, floating all over the universe. What he had to do was to do his best to retrieve those things.

He and his fleet thus became one of the most active in completing missions among all the disaster fleets.

——Not the most active one. Apparently, Bassol also won over some other disaster fleets.

Among the tasks that Zakaria completed, in addition to the mission objectives issued by Alchaton, he would also obtain new mission objectives directly from Bassol and then actively complete them.

Through this, he can also obtain supplies from both the Warmaster's Chaos Army and the 'Creator'.

The current operation mission in Papalil was sent by the Creator.

He thought it was similar to the previous actions. After all, he had run into the alliance before.

But I didn't expect to run into a tough problem.
