Chapter 413 The Lost Soul Bell

Survival is not a birthright, but a trophy wrested from an uncaring galaxy by forgotten heroes. ——Military Affairs Manual

Among the countless towering spiers of the Terra Palace, there is a pure black tower that stands out.

It is in sharp contrast to the surrounding splendid buildings, and seems to be a quiet corner in the bustling city.

This tower is called the Tower of Heroes. At the top of the tower stands a huge bell tower, which is comparable in size to the cathedral.

Inside the bell tower, you can see a simple bell made of ordinary metal.

This bell is completely black, and its surface is engraved with six-character mantras that contain spiritual energy. It has gone through vicissitudes of time and is full of traces of history.

Its name is the Lost Soul Bell.

This lonely Lost Soul Clock is astonishingly huge, like a huge Emperor-class Titan.

To ensure that this sacred instrument functions properly, hundreds of servants are dedicated to its meticulous maintenance.

However, this big bell never sounds easily. It is struck only at certain times - when the heroes of mankind unfortunately fall.

At this time, the deafening bells will ring throughout the palace and even over the city, announcing to the world that another great figure has left us.

Due to the extremely loud ringing of the bell, in order to avoid casualties, everyone in the palace must be evacuated to a specially built airtight and reinforced shelter before ringing.

Only in this way can they be protected from the impact of powerful sound waves and prevent deafness or even more serious consequences, such as liver and gallbladder rupture.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!......"

Huge and melodious bells sounded one after another, continuously coming from the direction of the top of the tower.

At this moment, no matter whether they were the despicable and dirty scum in the lower nest or the superior and pampered nobles in the upper nest, they all solemnly performed the Sky Eagle Salute in the direction where the bell was ringing.

In the streets and alleys of Terra, countless civilians stood silently, their eyes following the bells that resounded through the sky, and then they lowered their heads one after another and performed the Eagle Salute with the most pious attitude. Express our high respect and deep remembrance of the departed loyal souls. The whole city seemed to be enveloped in a solemn atmosphere.

The melodious and solemn bells, like the great bells in the universe, resounded throughout the entire world of Terra.

The sound seemed to travel through the endless void and reach a distant place.

Even the elite troops stationed on the moon or the members of the Mechanicum doing scientific research on Mars can vaguely feel the shocking power from the sacred place in the corner of this vast universe.

"499 of the Emperor's Angels have left us. May the Emperor keep their loyal souls alive forever in this dark and challenging galaxy."

Countless devout state believers flocked to the central square of Terra spontaneously. They knelt in awe beside the Emperor's huge and solemn icon, silently praying for the fallen Space Marines.

These believers wear simple robes, hold candles or scriptures, and their eyes reveal firmness and faith. They whispered scriptures in low voices, communicated with the emperor with their hearts, and prayed for his protection and guidance.

Thousands of battleships, tens of kilometers long, appeared in the sky of Terra like steel behemoths. They came from the Emperor's Children Legion, the World Eaters Legion, the Death Guard Legion, and the Lunar Wolves Legion. , the Lone Sand Warrior Legion, the Word Bearers Legion, the Night Lords Legion, the Iron Warrior Legion and other powerful forces' flagships and their elite main forces.

At the same time, countless brave and fearless imperial elite troops are marching towards Terra in a steady stream. With firm belief and determination, they seem to want to level the entire universe.

At this moment, the Emperor's wrath has spread across the entire galaxy, allowing all Primarchs here to clearly feel the unparalleled pressure.

This scene is shocking - since the Horus Heresy, the planet Terra has once again welcomed such a large-scale military gathering!

A tense and solemn atmosphere filled the Sun Star Territory, as if an earth-shattering war was about to break out.

"Marshal Thrawn, I didn't expect you to come in person."

Just as Grievous and Dooku stepped into the Supremacy, they happened to encounter Grand Admiral Thrawn and Kylo Ren coming towards them.

The Supremacy is parked quietly in the middle of the moon's star port, surrounded by dozens of huge transport ships, which are slowly and steadily approaching this strategic location.

"Moff Tarkin, General Hux."

Tarkin, wearing the black uniform of the Empire and standing as straight as a pine tree, appeared in this place together with Hux, who looked serious and unsmiling.

The two of them seemed to have a telepathic connection and felt the call from the Emperor at the same time.

Tarkin frowned and asked in a low voice: "Where is your Majesty?" There was a hint of urgency and uneasiness in his voice.

Hux looked at everyone silently, his eyes flashing with worry.

"His Majesty is waiting for us in the palace. We will go immediately after taking a short rest." Marshal Thrawn looked at everyone and then said quickly.

After hearing Grand Admiral Thrawn's words, several people began to organize their equipment and appearance, preparing to meet the Emperor in their best appearance.

On the surface of Terra, this magnificent palace stands.

He was carefully transformed by countless great sages of the Mechanicum and followers of the state religion, and became a jaw-dropping behemoth.

Just the palaces on the surface cover an astonishing millions of square kilometers.

With such a vast scale, even if you are in the vast universe and looking from far away in space, you can still clearly see its majestic figure.

This palace is like a dazzling pearl, embedded in the surface of the planet Terra, exuding endless light and majesty.

Its architectural style combines the power of technology and faith, which not only demonstrates the exquisite skills of the Mechanicus, but also reveals the devout respect of the followers of the Ecclesiarchy for the Emperor.

Walking into the palace, you can feel an unparalleled shock. It is full of huge towering pillars, intricate passages and gorgeous and exquisite decorations.

In the center of the palace stands a giant statue thousands of meters high, symbolizing the emperor's supreme power and glory.

The statue is surrounded by countless mechanical equipment and energy reactors, which continuously provide powerful power support for the entire palace.

The underground location of the palace was mined into a huge testing base and collection room. Yang Cheng listed the precious items collected in each world here.

Yang Chenggao sat on the golden throne, and the golden psychic power spread around him. This terrifying power made countless imperial soldiers only dare to half-kneel on the ground in silence.
