Warhammer 40: Gods Of Mortals

Chapter 1017 King of Storms
……

As a war to overcome internal conflicts was imminent, the Council of the Three Saints, the highest power of the Necron species, convened to discuss war matters.

The two French Emperors in the Council of Three Saints sit side by side, while the leader of the Council, the Silent King Szarak, sits higher than the two French Emperors.

Countless living metal skeletons crowded the council hall of the entire undead's highest authority, but there were no warriors, no guards, and no followers. There were only the kings and overlords at the peak of power in each dynasty, and the most respected judges.

The Hierarchs and Overlords loyal to Szarak stood behind the Silent King.

Directly opposite them were Storm King Imotek and his followers.

This meeting seemed to be a joint discussion, but the position alone showed a state of opposition. This meeting was originally held at the forefront of the confrontation between Szalac and Imotek.

At the time of the meeting, the Grand Justiciar serving Szarak had announced to everyone everything that had happened so far and warned the dynasties that war was coming.

According to the process and tradition, the Grand Justice will select the temporary supreme military commander according to Szalac's opinion to lead the entire race to win the next war.

While everyone was wondering who would be the chosen commander, the Grand Inquisitor selected the Emperor of the Cologne dynasty in the name of Szarak.

Although he had already heard that the Grand Justice had appointed him, King Cologne still couldn't believe it.

No matter why Szarak chose the Cologne dynasty to lead the war and become the supreme military commander, this dynasty can get everything they could not get before.

"This is of course the meaning of the most noble and last King of Silence." The Grand Justice loudly responded to the question of the King of Cologne, "Don't let me say it a second time."

Although the Emperor's younger brother, the Overlord of Cologne, advised his brother to express dynastic neutrality in this racial infighting, the Emperor still wanted to take a gamble.

Imotek's extremely heavy battle body rushed behind the King of Cologne before everyone's observation system could react. His large armored hand pressed on the head of the King's head, and with a gentle force, he pulled the head on the weak body together. The metal spine was ripped out together.

"Our species is facing a war, why don't you choose me as the most suitable candidate!" Imotek casually shook off the head of the King of Cologne, and a deep roar resounded throughout the council hall.

Now this imperial election is like the result of a huge gamble.

This dynasty was a fringe dynasty, and was coerced into siding with Szarak during the confrontation between Imotek and Szarak.

"Am I going to lead the war?" King Cologne raised his finger and pointed at himself, looked around, and his eyes fell on his younger brother, who was the overlord of the dynasty. "My noble King of Silence, is this your opinion?"

There was a sound of heavy footsteps.

"Praise the King of Silence." King Columb stepped forward to the throne and knelt in front of the three King Kings of the Council of Three Saints.

Seeing Storm King Imotek making such a move, the guards of the Council of Three Saints immediately stepped forward, pointing the phase spears in their hands directly at Imotek.

Facing these elite warriors who were guarding the Council of Three Saints, Imotek showed no fear at all. He glanced at the guards with contempt for ants, and finally stared at Szalak: "Answer me!"

Imotek's body is different from other Pharaohs. As the most warlike and warlike Pharaoh of the Sotec dynasty, Imotek's body is the same as those of the powerful warriors who often go to and from the battlefield, and is even stronger and thicker. This is unlike other Pharaohs. The thin-bodied kings seemed to be a very barbaric thing. "Are you sure you are willing to lead the war for the sake of the entire race at this time?" The Grand Justice spoke on behalf of Szalak.

"The conflict between us is between us, but foreign war is not." Imotek's voice became louder, "If we face a foreign war, even I am willing to devote myself to you and the entire species, as long as you appoint me As a military commander, I will immediately lead my followers into the war."

Hearing this, as if he had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, the chief justice immediately conveyed Szalac's will: "Then choose the king of the Sotec dynasty, the most powerful and war-savvy Storm King to lead The whole war."

Satisfied, Imotek saluted Szarak, then turned to look at the leaders of other dynasties.

"Conspiracy and trickery can bring no real benefit."

"Our previous machinations have been self-defeating, causing the Kasa dynasty to awaken and intensify its conflicts with humans, and the entire race is facing war."

"Now I will lead this war by the will of the Silent King, and I will let you know that only true iron and blood can bring everything we want, not all kinds of vile and ridiculous cleverness."

Imotek saluted Szalak and accepted the selection, but his words were unabashedly insulting Szalak.

The people standing on Szarak's side didn't react at all. After all, the Silent King himself was still leaning on the right armrest of the throne, watching Imotek's confident look as if he were watching a play.

Szarak was eager for Imotek to take the initiative to accept the imperial election, which was exactly what he wanted.

Imotek is not stupid, and he also knows that Szarak has a plan against him, but his choice is to be more careful when directing the war, rather than refusing to take over the war affairs.

Because Imotek wants to use a complete victory to let the entire race know who is their most suitable leader.

"How do you plan to conduct this war?" the Grand Inquisitor asked.

"It's very simple." Imotek opened his hand, and the results of the Sotec Dynasty's information collection on humans and the Casa Dynasty were displayed in front of everyone. It was a star map, and it accurately marked that humans were mobilizing. The route of the troops, as well as several star sectors designated as the frontline by humans.

Imotek also knows a lot about humans, and the two major forces within humans are marked in blue and gold.

On the back of the human territory is the blue Tyron sphere of influence, and the rest is the golden empire sphere of influence.

However, almost all of the information collected by Imotek is about the empire's troop mobilization, supply routes, and war intentions. There are only a few transport fleet movements that can be seen hundreds of light years away using Void Monitoring Stations about Tyrone. .

"I know the deployment of the Human Empire inside and out."

"And the Casa dynasty, which is hiding in the dimension like a turtle, will not be our first enemy."

All eyes were on Imotek as he began to describe his strategy.

Regardless of those who hate it, oppose it, or want to kill him quickly, they all have to admit the fact that in terms of war, Imotek does have the characteristics of a racial leader.
