Chapter 472 - Extremely heretical, the Savior attacked the Golden Throne? !

"Hiss~ Will there be any problem with the Golden Throne?"

Ron's attention was focused on the turbulence of the Golden Throne, and he didn't notice Guilliman's abnormality at all.

He immediately asked the Imperial Guards and paid attention to the situation in the warp.

This is not a trivial matter.

What if the Emperor's divinity broke through the limit and wanted to get up from the Golden Throne to stretch his muscles.

That would be the end of him!

After the commander of the Imperial Guards replied, Ron knew what happened. It was all his fault...

Dozens of minutes ago.

Himalayas, Lion Gate of Terra Palace.

After the arrival of the Redemption Titan Legion, the roar it caused reached the palace.

After receiving the message from the Savior, the commander of the Imperial Guards, Lysias, did not go to the Senate, but followed the ancient decree and led the Imperial Guards to build lines in various places in the palace.

They must be vigilant of all possible dangers, protect the safety of the palace, and prevent any problems from happening to the Golden Throne and the Emperor.

Even if the one who created these turbulences was a loyal Primarch, the Emperor's own son.

The Custodians never slack off.

For the safety of the palace, the Custodians will conduct a training program called "Blood Games".

Several Custodians suddenly leave their posts, play assassins, try all means to sneak into the throne room, and fight with real swords and guns with any colleagues who block them.

This is to test the weak points of the palace's defense and train the fighting skills of the Custodians.

In order to maintain their combat effectiveness, the Custodians will even capture Chaos Warriors, Demons or Tyranids and throw them into the abandoned areas of the palace to practice.

Do everything possible to train yourself.

Due to the outbreak of the Great Heresy, these Emperor's guards essentially do not believe in the existence of anyone other than the Custodians.

They have never truly trusted the Primarchs and Space Marines.

The Custodians will also use the holographic image of the Ultimate Primarch Guilliman for combat training in private to deal with possible mutinies.

They require the Space Marines to keep a safe distance from them at all times, and even studied how to destroy the Phalanx to prevent the fortress from being used by traitors.

"It is an ironclad fact that the Imperial Guards can protect the Imperial Palace and the Golden Throne!" A commander of the Imperial Guards once said so.

The commotion created by the Savior in Holy Terra triggered the Imperial Guards' most advanced defense program.

"The defense line is fully activated, all Imperial Guards enter a state of emergency, let the Supervisory Army keep a close eye on the Savior's movements, and report any situation immediately!"

Lysias took a deep breath and issued one order after another.

Even if they trust the Savior, they must activate the corresponding procedures when facing such a situation.

Just in case.

No one knows when the rebellion will happen.

Horus was one of the most trusted beings of the Emperor at the time, but he still rebelled?

Sizzle~

? ? ?

A small insect buzzed through the air and was hit by the laser of the war spear that was enough to destroy the ceramic steel armor and turned into ashes, ending its short life.

At this moment, the palace has entered a comprehensive martial law, and the sentinels are staring at every inch of land.

No life is allowed to cross the defense line!

In the dark unknown area, more Imperial Guard hunters are lurking, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.

Those heavy footsteps are made by the Imperial Guard's Terminators and Dreadnoughts.

They guarded the main road.

Clang clang clang.

Countless gears made a low and powerful bite sound in operation, like the breath of ancient beasts.

That was the movement formed when the defense facilities around the palace were activated, especially the super heavy fortress of Lion Gate.

Countless heavy artillery and giant void shields have been lit, and some ancient forbidden cannons can even smash Titans with one blow, and the Imperial Guard's psychic Titans are all dispatched to guard the passage of the fortress.

Unless they are completely crazy, no one dares to attack this fortress!

The commander of the Imperial Guard, Lysias, led the Watcher troops to move forward quickly and asked: "What does the Sky Eagle Shield say about this incident?"

The Sky Eagle Shield has a psychic of the prophecy system, who is responsible for coordinating the prophecy to take action.

If the psychics predict that "someone can protect the Golden Throne from danger", then the chosen one, whether a commoner, a noble, or a heretic, will be protected by the Imperial Guard.

It will not end until that being completes the "event of protecting the Golden Throne".

And if it is predicted that "a certain being will threaten the Golden Throne", the Fear Punishment Army will be dispatched to eliminate the threat in advance.

The Supervisory Captain waited for a while, as if collecting information.

After a few seconds, he frowned: "The prophets have received some vague predictions related to the Golden Throne. The throne will be affected by the shock, and a being will confess before the throne."

? ? ?

The prophetic message from the Sky Eagle Shield made the Imperial Guards more vigilant.

This means that the Golden Throne will encounter certain conditions or even be damaged, otherwise such a prophetic message will not appear!

"The Golden Throne is shaking, so who is going to repent in front of the throne?"

Lysias swallowed his saliva: "Emperor, could it be me who is punished and repents in the throne room for poor guarding..."

If it is really me.

He just took over the responsibility of the commander of the Imperial Guards, and he desecrated this honor.

It is simply unforgivable!

In any case, he must protect everything and prevent the throne room from being hit by any impact.

Soon, the commander of the Imperial Guards, Lysias, led his troops to the Lion's Gate.

The roar caused by the operation of the entire fortress became more intense, and the psychic Titans were also on full alert.

The crew members looked at the smoke in the distance with a trace of nervousness in their eyes.

They all know what that means.

"Company commander, how is the situation?"

After Lysias arrived, he asked the head of the sentry guard.

The sentry company commander was a little angry: "The savior is too arrogant. He actually sent the Titan Legion to march towards the palace. Who gave him the courage?"

"Perhaps this is a misunderstanding."

"Commander, shall we send a message to the Savior to stop this blasphemous act?"

"No!"

Lysias shook his head resolutely: "We don't need to do this. If the troops of the original body ignore the warning and step into the forbidden army's defense line, then it will definitely be judged."

This is the majesty of the Forbidden Army and the meaning of its existence.

They are the strongest spears and shields, and will only resolutely destroy anyone who dares to invade the palace.

If what comes is not the savior’s army, or if it’s other enemies, or even Chaos Heretics, do we have to order them to retreat like this?

That's more like a compromise and request, and the Imperial Army doesn't need anyone's compromise or concession!

"I hope the savior still retains basic sanity and is not so arrogant that he invades the palace and challenges the imperial army."

The commander of the imperial army thought silently.

He was a little worried that the Primarch would be consumed by ambition for power, to the point of desecrating the Emperor.

At this time, the supervisory forces in various places successively sent back the latest intelligence.

Lysias and others suddenly discovered that the power of the divine machine summoned by the primordial savior was a bit too much.

If the Savior launches a full-scale offensive against the palace at this time, the Forbidden Army's defensive front will face a crisis.

"Commander, there are currently at least 88 Emperor-class Redemption Titans operating on Holy Terra, and there are hundreds of other types of Titans."

The supervisory company commander looked serious: "This force has exceeded Holy Terra's ground defense force. The latest calculations show that only a comprehensive orbital strike can deal with these troops.

Moreover, the hive buildings and the royal palace will also be severely damaged in such an attack. "

Hearing this, the commander of the Forbidden Army and the surrounding Watcher veterans all showed nervous expressions.

Although the crisis has not yet truly occurred, the Imperial Guard never rules out any possibility.

This is probably one of the biggest crises that the palace may face since the Horus Heresy, even more terrifying than that crisis!

half a century ago.

The Battle of the Lions Gate triggered by the return of the Ultimate Primarch, and the phalanx formed by 88 Khorne Daemons, did not make them so nervous.

Afterwards, they received information about the Titan troops marching towards the palace.

That's the latest Titan troop dropped.

A phalanx formed by eighteen Emperor-class Titans and more other types of Titans is coming here with great momentum, and is about to enter the square of the Eternal Gate.

The pilot crew of the Bad Omen Order felt a little numb when they heard this.

There are only a dozen psychic Titans on their side, which are already one of the strongest ground weapons of the Forbidden Army.

However, the total number of Titan phalanx sent by the original body is more than several times that of our Titans, and there are even psychic Titans among them!

The Forbidden Army adults don't want to block that phalanx themselves, do they?

What is the difference between this and committing suicide?

Even with the assistance of the Lion's Gate super-heavy fortress, there is a high probability of a miserable victory and a high probability of defeat!

Those forbidden cannons can indeed destroy Titans with one shot, but they also take a long time to reload.

So many Titans.

When will the bombardment last? It is estimated that the enemy Titan phalanx will cross the bombing zone and engage in a head-on confrontation within a few rounds.

"How did the Savior forge so many Titans? Did he hollow out the Mechanicus?"

The hearts of the commanders of the Imperial Guard were shouting.

Even before the Emperor sat on the Golden Throne, he could not ask the Mechanicus to devote so many resources and technology!

Lysias fell into silence, and after a while he finally spoke: "Contact the Savior and tell him that the area around the palace is a restricted area and no troops other than the Forbidden Army are allowed to enter.

To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. "

After obtaining specific intelligence data and weighing the pros and cons, the commander of the Imperial Army finally decided to contact the savior.

"Commander, didn't you mean..."

Lysias glanced at him and said expressionlessly: "Follow my orders, company commander."

"yes!"

When the supervisory company commander heard this, he didn't dare to say anything or ask anything, and hurriedly carried out the order.

However, what happened next was not optimistic.

The Supervisors were unable to contact the Primarch of Hope, the savior. He seemed to be in a turbulent flow of energy, or to be more precise, he was being bombarded by the defensive artillery fire of the Senate.

He attempted to break into the area.

This situation made Lysias and others even more anxious.

It seemed like a war was getting ready to begin.

Once that Titans force breaks into the zone, they have to fight back.

At that time, what will be the reaction of the savior of hope?

The mentality of the Imperial Guards has quietly changed, and they are no longer as rebellious as before.

In the tense atmosphere, the Titan troop phalanx stopped moving when it arrived near the Gate of Eternity.

Buzz~

Lysias, the commander of the Custodes, received a communication from the commander of the Titan forces.

"Dear Commander of the Imperial Guards, we are the Savior's Royal Guards, and we will enter the square of the Eternal Gate and stay there temporarily.

We will never step into the restricted area of ​​the palace. In order to avoid misunderstandings, I hope we can keep the communication smooth."

The commander's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.

As the guards of the Primarch of Hope, the Savior, they are equivalent to the Imperial Guards in terms of duties, and are not under the jurisdiction of any other troops.

After receiving the communication, Lysias breathed a sigh of relief.

It is a good thing to avoid a crisis conflict.

But after they learned the purpose and role of this Titan force coming to the Eternal Gate, they almost broke the defense.

Gan!

Lysias's face was distorted and he could hardly breathe: "Damn, is the Primarch of Hope so rich?!"

That Titan phalanx is indeed the Savior's Royal Guards, but its actual role is a ceremonial unit, not a real combat unit.

In other words, the Savior takes this unit with many Titans everywhere every day!

Originally, the Primarch Savior wanted to use a large mechanical ceremonial force to participate in the parade during the victory celebration.

Unfortunately, this request was rejected by the Ministry of the Interior and Lionsgate Airport, and he could not send any large troops to the surface.

So he gave up the idea of ​​sending this ceremonial Titan force down.

Now, the Primarch Savior has taken full advantage and sent a large army to the surface, and this ceremonial Titan force also hurriedly applied for admission.

They wanted to enter the Eternal Gate as soon as possible to familiarize themselves with the venue and rehearse the relevant parade formations.

After all, according to the habits of the Lord Savior.

He will definitely have a grand celebration after his victory.

The Imperial Guards were all stunned by the wealth of the Savior.

The Imperial Guards are one of the richest armies in the empire, but they don’t have many Titan troops, and there are only a dozen psychic Titans left.

That is their treasure, and they wish they could keep it in the hangar all the time and maintain it with various holy oils and binary hymns.

And the Savior just dragged the Titan troops around, and even pulled them out for fun from time to time?

"Then... is it really a guard of honor?"

Lysias' voice was a little hoarse, as if he was angry.

"Savior, I can show you now."

The commander of the Titan troops was quite polite: "The next is a harmless display, please don't overreact."

Then, he issued a certain order.

In the field of vision of the Imperial Guards' surveillance equipment, several Titans in the front row of the Titan phalanx, which were hung with festive decorations and honorary flags, raised their ferocious muzzles.

Bang bang bang——

Accompanied by the Savior's sacred music, these muzzles spewed out ribbons and gorgeous fireworks.

...

Looking at this scene, the Imperial Guards and the Order of Evil Omen fell silent.

They couldn't understand the brain circuits of the Savior's territory.

But it must be said that those dogs are really rich to a mess.

If these powerful divine machines were handed over to me, how useful would they be? Using them as a guard of honor is simply blasphemy!

Envy and jealousy made them look unrecognizable.

After communication and consultation, the ritual Titan troops of the Primarch of Hope Savior successfully entered the square of the Gate of Eternity.

They began to practice some formations in neat steps, and from time to time raised the ferocious mechanical gun muzzles to salute the Primarch of Hope Savior.

Such a scene contrasted with the war of the hive buildings in the distance, which seemed particularly absurd.

This made the monitoring Lysias and others stunned.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Maybe this is the custom of the Savior's territory. Titans have to come out to welcome guests on important festivals.

They were even powerless to complain.

In fact, Titans are also commonly used plastering construction machinery in the Savior's territory.

Suddenly, a violent shock came from a distance, and the palace and the surrounding giant artillery facilities were shaking.

? ? ?

"Be alert!"

Lysias and others were shocked, and according to the monitoring data, the source of the vibration came from the Gate of Eternity Square.

Could it be that the Titan troops of the Savior used some kind of weapon to attack the palace?

What a heresy!

Fortunately, the vibration only lasted for a few seconds and then subsided.

"Sorry, there was some kind of accident in our training..."

Soon, the commander of the Titan troops sent a communication with an apologetic face.

The technical priests speculated that the cause of the vibration was due to the too uniform stepping frequency of the Redemption Titan, which formed a certain resonance, resulting in the occurrence of strong vibrations.

This is an extremely rare and dangerous special phenomenon.

Sometimes the resonance caused by the soldiers' stepping can destroy a solid bridge, not to mention the resonance caused by the Titan beast.

Fortunately, they changed their pace in time and stopped it all.

To avoid more disasters.

"How is the throne room?"

Lysias didn't care to blame the commander, as long as it was not an attack. He thought of the prophecy and was more concerned about the situation in the throne room.

However, the news from the Emperor's personal guards - the Retinue Army made him black.

This turmoil has affected the Golden Throne in the throne room. It is said that parts have popped out of the interior. The technical priests in the palace are checking the relevant impact!

"Emperor..."

Lysias ran to the throne room, hoping to get the relevant news as soon as possible.

There is no doubt that the Golden Throne, as a facility that maintains the Emperor's life, is the most important creation of the Empire.

The Emperor's body relies on the stasis fields and psychic forges of the Golden Throne to be preserved.

However, today's empire no longer has the technology to completely repair the Golden Throne.

The trouble is, the Golden Throne itself also has some problems one after another, such as the aging and damage of certain parts, or performance failures.

Its own consumption is increasing.

By the end of the 41st Millennium, the Golden Throne's consumption of psykers had quadrupled.

Even more desperate, the Tech-Priests discovered that the internal malfunctions within the Golden Throne were beyond their ability to repair.

In other words, no one knows whether this creation that sustains the Emperor's life will suddenly stop one day.

At that time, the empire will usher in complete darkness!

When Lysias rushed to the throne room, the Mechanicus Priests finally got the results.

The Golden Throne did not suffer any damage during the shock. On the contrary, after the parts popped out, some performance problems were inexplicably cured.

Based on the tech-priest's guess.

Those parts may have been installed incorrectly, affecting the performance of the Golden Throne, and now the wrong parts were detached during the shock.

Its performance has been restored.

This surprised and angered the Custodes, who attempted to track down the installer of those parts.

After all, the Golden Throne has undergone many repairs and maintenance over the years, and the relevant technical priests may be suspected of heresy and rebellion.

It can be found from the markings on the parts that the relevant parts may have been installed during the Emperor's reign.

That's all.

Just when Lysias and others wanted to retreat, the Golden Throne shook again.

But this time it was a good thing, because the will of the great Emperor briefly awakened and descended on Holy Terra!

"Your Majesty the Savior, that's what happened."

Lysias restored communication with the savior and briefly told what happened. He spoke a little fast.

“I’m sorry that my honor guard disturbed you.

In the future, I will send out relevant technical teams to see if they can check and repair the faults of the Golden Throne. We already have more high-tech for psychic facilities. "

The savior's tone was gentle and full of apology: "By the way, your imperial army is short of Titans. After this incident is over, you can come and pick a batch when you have time.

This is a personal gift to you, you can use it however you want. "

Anyway, after this coup reform, a considerable part of the Redemption Titans will stay in Holy Terra to garrison.

That is a deterrent, and it also strengthens the defense force.

It doesn't matter if I give the Forbidden Army ten or twenty of them as an apology.

"Praise the Emperor!"

The commander of the Imperial Army suddenly raised his voice, and couldn't help grinning. The last trace of dissatisfaction with the Primarch of Hope disappeared: "We will keep your generosity in mind."

No one can have too many of the Empire's most high-end gadgets, such as the Titan God Machine.

Especially when the Imperial Guard is fully involved in the Empire's war, who wouldn't want to take a few Titans with them when they go out?

Unfortunately, the original psychic titans of the Imperial Guard could only be stationed in the palace, with strict procedural restrictions.

But the Titan presented by the savior is different.

Lysias was already thinking happily about the scene where the Titans would follow the Imperial Army when they went on missions in the future.

Even he can't stand the sugar-coated bullets of hope for the primarch's savior.

After finishing his communication with the Savior, Lysias was in a good mood and entered the throne room reverently.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Emperor's Custodians must listen to the great Emperor's oracles together with the Imperial Messenger.

See if that being has anything to say.

——

senate.

"Huh~ As long as nothing happens to the Golden Throne."

After Ron contacted the commander of the Forbidden Army, he felt much calmer.

If it doesn't blow up, it won't be a big problem.

The only problem now may be the emperor's attitude towards this coup reform.

After all, he tried to change the political system left by the Emperor, sent the Redemption Titan to bomb Holy Terra, and shocked his old man to wake up.

"Ah, the great Emperor has sent a miracle!"

The pope of the state religion knelt down fervently, feeling the emperor's will.

Other high lords also saluted reverently.

The higher echelons of the Empire are aware of the existence of the Emperor's will.

Although that existence rarely sends down some kind of miracle or oracular instruction on Holy Terra.

But in some of the Imperium's darkest moments, the Emperor's will emerged more than once.

"Hiss~ The emperor is a little annoyed..."

Just as Ron was about to find a chance to communicate with the Emperor, he felt an explosion of the Emperor's will, seemingly asking about the situation of Holy Terra.

He made a prompt decision and chose to let Little Cotton Jacket and Mechanical Goddess Xiao Ling communicate with the emperor.

I believe that the emperor will understand what he is doing after reading those data and information.

"Father...Father is angry?!"

Guilliman sat on the Emperor's throne, sweat pouring out of his forehead, almost numb.

Just now, the imperial regent was thinking about some excuse and stood up from his father's position gracefully and decently.

However, before he could make a move, his father's consciousness swept over the throne and exploded.

Due to the youthful shadow left by the Emperor, Guilliman, the Ultramarine, overthought himself and believed that his father was angry at his transgression.

That existence never allowed the Primarch and his children to act recklessly and challenge his authority.

In fact, the Emperor's attention was not on the throne at all, but on the situation of Holy Terra.

At this time, the high lords realized something and turned their eyes to the Imperial Regent on the Emperor's throne, with strange expressions on their faces.

The anger of the Great Emperor's will at this time may be related to the Emperor's Regent and the Primarch of Hope.

Especially the Imperial Regent who has usurped the power under the Emperor's nose.

This is simply a double pressure.

"The Savior has misled me!"

Guilliman's body was a little stiff, and he was shouting in his heart, feeling that he had suffered an unjust accusation.

He recalled the scene he had seen before about his father teaching the Primarch and his children a lesson, and his heart became even more panicked.

What if his father beat him up like he beat Magnus or Fulgrim.

Wouldn't it be a lifetime of reputation ruined?

He knew his father would not kill him.

But for such a big Imperial Regent, it would be embarrassing to just be taught a lesson!

Whoosh——

Guilliman stood up from the throne at the speed of light, his face firm, as if this incident had never happened.

He pulled the savior over and pressed him on the throne: "Brother, you convened the meeting, so it's better for you to sit in this position."

This can be regarded as a small revenge by the Imperial Regent. After all, they did the thing together, and they should take the lesson together!

After he finished this, he felt much more balanced.

"Well, that's fine, then I'll sit."

Ron was pressed on the throne absent-mindedly, feeling that what old Ji said was not wrong.

After all, it was not appropriate to talk about the meeting convened by himself next to him. It was just a seat, and there was no need to push it back and forth like a New Year's gift.

That scene was not good either.

However, he just sat down.

The erupting Emperor's will subsided, and even revealed a hint of satisfaction.

The little cotton jacket had persuaded her Emperor grandfather to agree to the coup reform.

This change made everyone present fall into silence.

They looked at the Imperial Regent, and then at the Primarch of Hope on the Emperor's throne, thinking.

The attitude of the Emperor's Will was quite obvious.

It seemed that the great Emperor supported the Primarch of Hope, the Savior, and even allowed him to sit on his former throne.

Perhaps he was the successor chosen by the Emperor!

When the high lords thought of this, they subconsciously showed more respect to the Primarch of Hope.

No matter what, no one dared to openly defy the will of the great Emperor within the Empire.

That would be condemned by everyone.

Huh? ? !

Guilliman was stunned when he saw this scene.

He was not entangled in power or something like that, but felt that the father was a little biased.

Damn, why? Is there any difference in treatment for just sitting on a seat?

The Emperor's Will swept over the Imperial Regent, as if he wanted to explain something, but he felt a little tired talking to this psychic Muggle.

He just patted his shoulder with some weak psychic energy.

Guilliman thought his father was warning him, and he was a little weak.

Perhaps he should go to the Golden Throne and confess the Second Empire. He has been avoiding talking about this matter.

It can be regarded as a kind of knot.

Cough!

"Why is that old guy Guilliman so startled today?"

Ron thought, coughed slightly, and reminded everyone to draw their attention back.

He sat on the Emperor's throne, quite majestic: "Okay, let's discuss how to deal with the current situation of Holy Terra.

I will propose some targeted policies or measures later. If there is anything wrong, you can bring it up for discussion."

"I agree!"

Grey Knight Grand Master Coven, wearing the incongruous representative robe on his silver-white armor, spoke first, the electronic voice was rough and steady.

"I agree too!"

The Father of the Nova followed closely, regretting that he reacted late.

Although the Primarch Savior of Hope did not say anything specific, the two high lords had already expressed their attitudes.
