Chapter 979: The End of the Plague War

The Plague Wars came to an end after lasting for several months. In the original Warhammer world, the Plague Wars lasted for 12 years, starting in M42 and finally ending around 012.M42.

However, the speed of Yang Cheng's legion was nearly twice as fast as before. In just a few months, they exiled seven Nurgle Daemons and forced the Demon Primarch to retreat.

Robert couldn't even imagine this. He originally thought that these brothers from the parallel world were the same as the original ones.

But after seeing Lorgar crush a Nurgle Daemon's head with one hand and annihilate an entire Nurgle army with his scepter...

Robert was silent. He felt that the Lorgar in front of him might be Magnus in disguise, but the facts were in front of Robert.

This is Luo Jia! He is countless times stronger than himself in this world.

At this moment, Lorgar didn't care about Robert at all. He just wanted to find himself in this world, and Erebus and Kor Phaeron in this world, and then hang these three bastards on the wall of Terra.

Then there was Angron. Robert was so shocked when he saw Angron fighting.

Angron actually knew how to formulate tactics! And these complex tactics were executed very well by the Space Marines of the World Eaters.

Robert looked at all these scenes and almost ran directly to Yang Cheng, and then dragged Guilliman from Yang Cheng's side to work on his side.

Of course, ideas are just ideas, but Robert doesn't have the courage to do it.

"Neos! You lost again!"

In the Terra Palace, Yang Chengzheng and Neos were fighting on the table with warhammer models.

Neos had lost three games in a row and was so angry that he almost jumped up from the golden throne to punch Yang Cheng.

"The unrest in the Ultramar sector has been resolved, my lord."

Trajan walked into the palace and immediately reported to Yang Cheng and Neos.

In view of the fact that there were two Trajans, Yang Cheng's Trajan was arranged to stay in the palace, while Neos' Trajan was arranged to join the expedition fleet.

"That boy Robert did a great job. I knew he could succeed."

The phantom of Neos crossed his legs and said proudly while looking at Yang Cheng who was reading the report.

“Yes, the statistical logistics are indeed good, but that’s all.”

"Want to hear a joke, Neos?"

"What joke?"

"Do you know what the relationship between the Battle of Terra and Robert is like?"

"what?"

“It’s like concrete 42 and spaghetti.”

"These two things are..."

After understanding what Yang Cheng meant, Neos immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, but after scaring Yang Cheng a few words, he sat back obediently.

Yang Cheng put the report aside. The victory of the plague war was already a foregone conclusion, but what he was more worried about next was the Nakmond Corridor and the Exorcist Dead Zone.

Among them, apart from the threat of Chaos, the biggest one is the Necrons.

Simply put, the Necrons are killing machines that look like skeletons. They are led by killing machine nobles, have no souls, and possess astonishingly advanced technology.

The birth of the Necrons took place a long, long, long time ago. There was an alien race called the Nehekhara. The stellar radiation in the galaxy where they were born was very strong, causing the life of the Nehekhara to be short and painful.

The dead build tombs larger than towns as a constant reminder of their inevitability.

In order to escape death, they concentrated their short lives on scientific research, desperately trying to find ways to prolong their lives, but they never succeeded.

The dead even used extremely advanced technology to contact the ancient saints, who expressed their willingness to lend a helping hand, but were unwilling and unable to allow the dead to achieve immortality.

But the Old Ones themselves are immortal, and so the hatred of the Dead against them grows day by day.

The Empire of the Dead was once so huge that it was almost unimaginable, which also led to the lords who ruled different regions of the galaxy beginning to conquer each other.

In order to prevent the entire race from being destroyed by its own stupidity, the supreme ruler of the All-Dead decided to establish a foreign race as a public enemy in order to divert internal conflicts.

It sounds clever at first, but they chose the Ancient One to be the public enemy.

Although they had long left their hostile star system, the dead had always been jealous of the ancient saints, so they decided to snatch the secret of the ancient saints' eternal life! This war was known as the War of Heaven.

As a result, the All-Dead were beaten into pig heads by the ancient saints, and the entire race was almost destroyed by their own stupidity.

At this time, the hatred of the All-Dead attracted the Star God, and the Star God, who was later called the Deceiver, offered to help fight against the Old Ones, and said that the All-Dead should upload their consciousness into the machine, give up their physical body, and achieve immortality on their own.

The Star God "kindly" imparted a great deal of knowledge, and facing the attack of the Ancient Saints, the Silent King agreed in desperation.

Eventually, they used the Star God's knowledge to develop a body transfer technology, through which all the dead could ascend mechanically and become Necrons.

But the machine body could not carry the soul, and the bodies and souls of hundreds of millions of dead people became food for the star gods.

Later, the power of the C'tan became so great that it was almost unmatched, and the Old Ones even used the Eldar and Orcs as helpers to deal with them.

But unfortunately, the final result was still a miserable defeat.

However, while the Star Gods were killing the last of the Ancients and recuperating, the Silent King stabbed them in the back.

The Necrons used a variety of unmatched weapons to blast the unprepared Star God to pieces, and then imprisoned its fragments containing powerful energy in the hypercube maze for future use.

By this time the Milky Way was in tatters, and the Necrons' power was severely weakened, to the point where even the Eldar dared to challenge them.

So the Silent King ordered all members to fall into a deep sleep, to avoid the rising Eldar Empire, and then to wake up again tens of millions of years later, to let time kill his opponents for him.

As for the Silent King himself, he felt that he had let his people down and regretted allowing the Star God to take away the souls of the dead.

His final order was for the Necrons to restore the former glory of the Empire after they awakened, and then he destroyed the Supreme Control Protocol, exiled himself, and left the galaxy.

In the 41st millennium of mankind, these Necrons began to gradually awaken, vowing to restore the glory of the ancient empire.

But how exactly should this be done? Each Necron Overlord has his own ideas.

But now that the Silent King is away, the unified Necrons are once again divided into several dynasties.

The current Necron Dynasty can be said to be full of talented people, and each lord has a different personality.

Some Necron Lords are full of martial virtue and are engaged in wars, some are busy studying the fleshing of creatures, and some are figuring out how to steal something from the neighboring house.

The Silent King encountered the Tyranids in the void between galaxies, and realized that if the bugs devoured all the biomass in the galaxy, the Necrons would never have the chance to regenerate.

So, the Silent King returned to the galaxy that was loyal to him and began to prepare for the battle against the Zerg.
