Warhammer: My Brother Is the Emperor.

Chapter 172 Abaddon Robs the Bank
When Abaddon returned to the Eye of Terror, looking around, there were planet wreckage everywhere, countless familiar stars were extinguished, and only purple waves were turbulent.

The Eye of Terror, which was once full of vitality and where all things were competing, is now so desolate, and Abaddon can't help feeling sad.

When he launched the Ninth Black Expedition, Said was also carrying out the Abyss Expedition. Under the positioning of the scout ship, the fleet advanced at full speed according to the planned route, and quickly wiped out the demon worlds one by one.

In the end, before the evil god reacted, he retreated quickly. Even if the evil god responded in time and sent a massive demon army, the expedition fleet would not be able to stay.

Due to the weakening of the evil god's power, the Golden Sun's influence on the Eye of Terror is getting stronger and stronger, and it can send out spells to rescue loyal imperial soldiers.

In the end, the expedition fleet purified [-] demon worlds, wiped out the accumulation of evil gods for thousands of years, and extinguished all the shining stars.

Abaddon looked at the loss report, his face sank like water, and he asked coldly, "Is there any loss in the strength of the Black Legion?"

The subordinate replied: "No, before the false emperor's expedition was launched, the legion fleet and the mechanical ark jumped into the real world one step ahead, and were not affected by the enemy's offensive."

"Where are they now?" Abaddon asked.

The subordinate replied: "In the Taiping star field, outside the star torch of the false emperor, make sure it will not be found."

Abaddon nodded, proud of himself for taking precautions, allowing the Black Legion to transform into a fleet civilization.

He used the looted materials to build a mechanical ark with a production capacity comparable to that of the foundry world. It not only produced various weapons, but also produced the devil's purple palace of Chaos space fighters.

With the mechanical ark as the core, the Black Legion escaped many expeditions to the abyss, and with the help of allies in the subspace, they continued to haunt the real universe and plundered the empire's supplies.

Most of the looting targets were merchant ships, and the Black Legion fleet set up roadblocks and charged tolls.

Compared with history, this kind of plundering is much more civilized and smaller in scale, and the loss of personnel and materials of the empire is slight, and some of them are not even reported.

During the looting process, Abaddon was very careful. He didn't let the canned food of the Black Legion show up. He let mortals carry out the whole process, and only came forward to suppress when encountering resistance.

Therefore, Said didn't think about Abaddon at all, and only blamed the pirates between the star regions, and included the star region where the incident occurred as the focus of the next purification expedition.

Abaddon has accumulated a large amount of supplies through zero knockouts, and his fleet has continued to grow, becoming the only Chaos warband that can be self-sufficient.

Looking at the majestic fleet, Abaddon regained his confidence. Although the Black Legion Army was wiped out, as long as the fleet and the Mechanical Ark are still there, the foundation is there, and one day they will be able to recover their blood.

While licking his wounds, he was collecting information on the Taiping Starfield, and through the prayers of Chaos believers in various places, he quickly gained a comprehensive understanding.

The ownerless Blackstone Fortress is located in the star area where the Taiping Theater Command is located. There are a large number of fleets and auxiliary troops stationed there, and the Black Legion cannot compete.

Abaddon realized that he could not capture Blackstone Fortress in one or two battles, and had to go through a protracted battle to achieve his goal step by step.

So while restoring strength, a new round of expedition is brewing.

At the same time, Said fell into doubts in the Terra Palace.

"Brother Huang, I have purified [-] planets, but haven't found a single forge world. Is this possible? Abaddon has plundered a huge amount of people and supplies."

The emperor said calmly: "The Eye of Terror is not my domain, and I don't know, but there may be only a few of them."

Saeed scratched his head and said helplessly, "Either the Forge World will be transferred, or the Black Legion will become a fleet civilization, wandering and plundering everywhere."

The galaxy was vast, and there was nothing Syed could do about it either way, and what was worse, history had changed, and he couldn't guess Abaddon's next move.

Originally in history, the goal of the first twelve black expeditions was to destroy the black stone obelisks in various places, to eliminate dissidents, and to rob the black stone fortress to expand its strength.

However, at this time, the empire produced the Blackstone Obelisk, and it was meaningless to destroy it. Elimination of dissidents had already been done, and the sneak attack on the Blackstone Fortress failed.

So Said couldn't predict the next target of the Black Army.

After thinking hard and having no idea, Said simply forgot about it and turned his attention to the Damocles expedition.

At this time, the Juba Khan Legion has arrived at the Tau star cluster, and the Tau control more than a dozen nearby galaxies and more than 100 planets, which can be regarded as a larger pocket empire.

Compared with history, the territory of the Tau tribe has not changed much, but the expedition fleet is larger and stronger, with more than 2000 warships, 20 Astartes and giant soldiers, and tens of billions of auxiliary troops.

After the last heavy damage, the Tau fleet has not yet recovered, and Juba Khan's army has more warships than the entire Tau civilization combined.

In front of [-] warships, the Tau fleet with a number of less than a hundred was quickly wiped out. After the Juba Khan Legion asked Said for instructions, they immediately issued an extinction order on the first Tau world.

Atmospheric incineration torpedoes killed all life, shattering the fragile and innocent ideals of the Tau.

In Said's words, let these naive little Baga see the truth of the cruel galaxy!

In the original history, the Tau tribe was beaten violently by other galactic powers in turn, but the powers retreated voluntarily for various reasons. Said would never make such a mistake.

He will carry out the expedition to the end, give up landing on the planet, and use the extinction order on all the Tau worlds to completely kill this new civilization.

The Juba Khan fleet quickly headed to the next galaxy. Unlike the previous colonized world, the goal this time was a family world that must be saved.

After a series of previous wars, the Tau people have fully experienced the tyranny and cruelty of human beings, and began to abandon their illusions and fight to the death with human beings.

Just as the Juba Khan's army was heading to the home world, Abaddon had a new move.

The Black Legion fleet has no navigator, cannot see the light of the star torch, and has no puppet positioning. When it sees the crack, it goes directly to where it goes.

Due to the affinity property of the subspace, there is basically no danger in the middle, but the destination is hard to say, sometimes it may be the bottom hive of the hive capital, or it may be deep in the black hole, or next to the imperial naval fortress.

In order to capture Blackrock Fortress, Abaddon had to solve the navigator problem, so he bound a Tzeentch demon in an attempt to guide the fleet through contact with the Lord of Change.

However, Tzeentch's demon has long been driven mad by a series of puzzles. When the navigating fleet leaped out of the subspace, it ran into a waaagh of green skins head-on.

The two sides immediately started a scuffle, and there was an Anglican temple world nearby, and Abaddon discovered that the original target of the green skins was the nearby temple world.

Since the possession of genetic radiation bombs, the threat of greenskins to humans has been greatly reduced. Radiation bombs can slaughter low-level greenskins in pieces, making high-level greenskins become polished commanders and slaughtered by the empire.

In the end, this locust-like cosmic civilization became a street mouse. Although it was endless, it could not pose much threat.

On weekdays, it can be easily dealt with by the galaxy forces alone, and the same is true for the temple world that was attacked, which did not attract Said's attention.

However, when the Black Legion appeared, the nature changed. The cardinal immediately reported the situation to the puppet, and then asked:

"My lord, in the current situation, what instructions do you have?"

Although there are puppets in the Planetary Force, Said is still aware of the situation even if there is no report, but the cardinal is well versed in officialdom, so he still asks the puppets to report.

Whether the leader knows is one thing, and whether you report it is another matter, not to mention that this is an opportunity to show your face in front of the top leaders.

As he expected, the puppet calmly said: "I already know the situation, the enemy in outer space is handed over to the fleet, and you only need to be responsible for the defense of the surface!"

The cardinal asked: "My lord, do we have any reinforcements?"

The puppet replied: "A Tribunal fleet will arrive within two days, please be sure to hold on until then!"

The cardinal immediately patted his chest and agreed: "Don't worry, Your Excellency, we promise to complete the task!"

After the conversation, Said took over the command of the Galaxy Force and observed the battle between the Black Legion and the Greenskins.

Occasionally, a fleet of green skins came towards the galaxy, and was wiped out in pieces by genetic radiation bombs. After repelling several waves of offensives, the green skins all went to fight the black army.

Fighting the Black Legion at least won't be killed in seconds, it can waaagh longer and more enjoyable.

However, Abaddon didn't intend to let the empire eat melons and watch the show, and immediately ordered the fleet to move to the temple world. The galaxy defense platform was fully fired, and the landmines rushed towards the invaders like bloodthirsty sharks.

The Black Legion encountered fierce firepower. When the Nova Fort fired a salvo, several cruisers were lost in an instant. However, as the Greenskin Fleet aggressively covered up and killed them, they shared the pressure of the Black Legion.

At this time, the Galaxy Force asked the puppet: "My lord, would you like to use genetic radiation bombs?"

Said thought for a while and decided: "Use it, let the galaxy fleet attack, we still have to fight the battle ourselves!"

In addition to being a religious holy place and building a large number of wonders and churches, the temple world also has an important function of producing imperial currency.

Countless parchments are transported here every day to receive the blessing of the God Emperor's divine power and become the precious currency of the empire.

The Empire is perpetually deflationary, with never-satisfied demand for money, and as the Imperial Bank-cum-Mint is visited by a large number of pirates every year.

Pirates include humans, aliens, and rebels. They plunder the imperial currency and buy imperial goods from the merchant fleet.

It's not that they recognize the value of the imperial currency, but that only the imperial currency is the equivalent of traveling through the galaxy, and you can get any item no matter where you are.

The imperial currency is so strong, and the temple world is extremely important. In order to fight against robbers from all walks of life, the galaxy is equipped with a powerful fleet and planetary troops.

In the world in front of Abaddon, there is a galaxy fleet with hundreds of battleships ranging from battleships to cruisers, and ten regiments of giant soldiers stationed on the main star and star base.

Such a defensive force is enough to compete with the entire Black Legion, not to mention that the Black Legion cannot withstand the loss of a big battle shortly after a setback.

With the detonation of the genetic radiation bomb, a large number of green leather fleets lost their crews and were unable to move forward. They were set on fire by the imperial fort and became scrap iron.

At this time, the Black Legion still failed to break into the galaxy, but was facing the concentrated fire of the fort. At this moment, Abaddon practiced an idea.

Back on the Vengeful Spirit, Black Legionnaires brought in an iron cage full of green-skinned psionic kids.

Abaddon turned around and said to Fabius Bayer beside him: "The rest is up to you!"

With confidence, Bayer said, "Leave it on me, Lord Warmaster!"

Abaddon nodded, and said, "I'm going to jump for help. After making a hybrid demon, I can use it directly. Do you understand?"

After finishing speaking, he went to the teleportation array. After a flash of psychic energy, three thousand Chaos Interstellar Demonstrations appeared on the surface of the temple world and began to kill.

The [-] Chaos Canned were powerful, and in an instant the entire building was in ruins. People fled in all directions, and the Chaos Canned chased after them, hiding and killing them all the way.

The Planetary Defense Forces reacted quickly, establishing a front around the landing zone, and the Colossus and Astartes swooped in, battling the Chaos Cans to prevent further casualties.

At this moment, Abaddon stopped the carnival of the canned people and ordered: "Everyone follow me, the massacre of civilians is prohibited, and those who violate it will be killed without mercy!"

The Black Legion was puzzled by the Warmaster's order, but under the threat of Abaddon's force, they all chose to obey, followed behind Abaddon, and retreated while fighting.

At the same time, the Black Legion fleet approached the galaxy and began to exchange fire with the galaxy fortress. Black Legion warships were constantly destroyed, but the Black Legion's counterattack was blocked by the void shield.

And behind the fort, there are still a large number of galaxy fleets waiting in battle. When the fort is consumed, the Black Legion will be at a disadvantage in terms of strength and will be taken away by the galaxy fleet.

However, at this moment, Fabius Bayer's experiment was successful. They successfully produced a batch of green skins and demon hybrids. The waaaagh energy of the demons was concentrated in the psionic kid, weakening the reality and the subspace veil.

In an instant, a strong subspace storm erupted around the galaxy. On the main star world, demons tore open the subspace cracks and rushed to the temple world.

The situation reversed in an instant. With the help of the demon wave, the Black Legion, which was suppressed and beaten, was gearing up to fight back against the Loyalists, but was still stopped by Abaddon.

"Everyone, unauthorized attacks are prohibited, follow me!"

The Black Legion had no choice but to suppress the killing intent in their bodies, and followed Abaddon to launch an assault. Under the cover of the demon army, they soon arrived at the local surface building.

It was a majestic church, with a giant stone statue of the emperor standing with a sword, his head bowed down looking down at the burning world, as if pitying the death of his people.

Abaddon was full of hatred for the statue. If he hadn't been in a hurry, he would have smashed it to pieces. After spitting out a mouthful, he led the legion to continue assaulting the church.

The church is not only a religious place, but also a treasury, which stores a large amount of currency and has strong purchasing power.

These currencies are the real target of the Black Legion!
Through the plague of Nurgle, Abaddon easily broke through the gate of the vault, and boxes of currency inside were at his fingertips, but the Black Legion dared not touch it.

Because the currency is blessed by the Holy Light of the Emperor, it has a restraining effect on the Black Legion, but this is not a problem for Abaddon. The Black Legion has already prepared a group of mortals as helpers.

Meanwhile, the cardinal reports to the puppet:
"Lord Pope, the people in the war zone have been evacuated, and the auxiliary army has formed a front to stop the demons. We are currently organizing prayers and praying for the emperor to save us!"

Saeed asked, "Are there any traces of the Black Legion?"

The bishop recalled: "Someone saw them in the icon area, but it was already empty, and the desecration ceremony could not be held, except to grab money!"

"Then what are they going to do?" Said wondered, the currency has the power of the god emperor, and it is harmful to the canned chaos, unless...

He instantly thought of a possibility, and immediately ordered a team of Giant God Soldiers to assault the holy elephant area!
"Damn it, Abaddon won't really go grab the money!"
