40K: Where did the Emperor go?

Chapter 186 The Emperor’s Expedition

Sanguinius knew that he had been tricked. His father had long known about his and Curz's plan, and he also knew that Leman Russ would help Sanguinius.

Leman Russ didn't know what Sanguinius was up to, but he chose to believe that Sanguinius must have his own reasons for sneaking away.

Kezi "tsk", he thought that he and Sanguinius could compete with his father to a certain extent by using the prophecy ability together, but he didn't expect that his father was much more powerful than they imagined.

His and Sanguinius' plans were fully figured out by the Emperor.

Surrounded by brothers who were watching the joke, Jaghatai Khan stepped forward and stopped Sanguinius' shoulders: "Brother, you should call me for such a funny thing."

Emperor: "Okay, let's go. We still have many tough battles to fight next."

…………

Smoke, war, and aliens are raging on this poor agricultural planet, and a village was attacked by the Tyranids.

Mia held her mother's hand, and her mother held Mia in one hand and her brother in the other, struggling to escape.

Mia felt like her heart was about to beat out. She gasped: "Mom, I can't run anymore."

Mom encouraged: "Kid, hold on a little longer."

From time to time, people around him were thrown to the ground by Tyranid creatures and then torn into pieces.

"hiss!"

There was a sound that was enough to send chills down the spine. Mia didn't dare to look back and just lowered her head to follow her mother's footsteps.

Finally seeing a cellar, the mother took Mia to the entrance of the cellar and stuffed her brother and a milk bottle into Mia's arms.

The mother tried her best to show a smile: "Hide here and take good care of my brother. When he is hungry, give him some milk."

The mother pushed Mia into the cellar, and then blocked the entrance with surrounding debris until only a ray of sunlight could be seen through the gap. Mia hugged her brother and hid in the cellar shivering.

Suddenly there was a roar of monsters, and something threw her mother down. From the gap in the board, Mia saw her mother's expressionless eyes as she fell face to face. Then she was quickly dragged away by something, and drops of blood fell from her eyes. It dripped from the gap and landed on Mia's upper face.

Mia was stunned. She hugged her brother tightly and waited quietly. She waited for a long time, one tera hour, two tera hours, or even longer. She was always highly alert to her surroundings. The long-term high tension made her more and more nervous. Getting more and more tired.

When her brother was hungry, she would give him milk from the bottle she brought with her until the milk was gone.

When she heard some movement outside, she put her fingers into her brother's mouth and let him suck, trying not to make any noise.

But the fingers were not breast milk. Children will cry when they are hungry. My brother started crying loudly.

"hiss!"

The roars of those monsters appeared outside, and Mia covered her mouth in fear.

A Tyranid creature sniffed toward the cellar. Its keen sense of smell quickly detected the smell of organic creatures, and it immediately used its sharp claws to pull away the debris piled at the entrance of the cellar.

Then it smashed open the cellar entrance, revealing its hideous and ugly deformed head and fangs in its mouth.

Mia screamed in fear, she wanted to run, but she was tired and hungry, so she could only push back.

Sure enough, it saw two pieces of food, and it greedily opened its mouth to bite it. The fatigue of many days and the sudden fright made Mia faint.

Suddenly a powerful force pulled the Tyranid creature out of the cellar.

"Hey, you~!"

A bug's death cry seemed to announce its end. Mia felt the light while she was in a trance, and she slowly woke up.

A golden light shone in, and Mia saw the most beautiful things in this life, like the golden wheat fields in spring, the rising sun, the beauty of hope and light.

A giant hand wearing a golden gauntlet came in, and Mia heard an extremely majestic and sacred voice.

+Come out, you are safe. +

Mia stretched out a hand and grabbed a finger of the big golden hand. She felt the warm power spread through her whole body from the finger.

She gained strength from that hand, her fatigue and hunger disappeared, and her brother in her arms fell asleep peacefully under the golden light.

Mia walked out of the dark cellar. It was night, but the sky and surroundings were bright, because there was a giant on the ground that exuded more brilliance than the sun.

His light is enough to illuminate the darkness of the entire planet, but it is not dazzling and does not cause any harm to humans.

Mia looked at him blankly: "You are the God Emperor, right?"

The Emperor smiles: + I am the Emperor. +

Mia's eyes were moist, and liquid continued to flow out of her eyes. She sobbed: "My brother and I are both dead, right? The priests said that when people die, they will return to the Golden Throne and see you... …I…I don’t want to die,…Oh, I’m sorry to mom and dad, I didn’t fulfill my promise, I didn’t protect my brother.”

The Emperor knelt down, gently stroked Mia's head lovingly, and wiped away her tears: + You have done a good job, you are not dead, you and your brother are alive and well, your mother and father Will be proud of you. +

Mia sobbed: "I...am I really not dead?"

The Emperor nodded: + Of course. +

Mia: "But the priests said that only the dead can see you."

Emperor: + That’s what they are talking about. Those priests are the best at lying. I am a living person, and you are also a living person. Of course you can see me when you are alive. Let’s go find your father and mother. +

Mia looked expectantly: "Are my mother and father alive?"

Emperor: +Of course, look. +

The Emperor turned sideways to reveal the scene behind him. The destroyed houses and villages were all intact, as if the Tyranid attack just now was just a dream.

Behind the emperor, the villagers looked around blankly, as if they had not yet woken up from their dreams.

When they saw their loved ones around them, they immediately cried and hugged each other.

"Mia!"

A woman shouted in surprise, and Mia saw her mother and father running toward her intact.

Mia also ran over with her brother in her arms, and the family of four hugged each other happily.

At this time, the primitives who had just finished wiping out the Zerg in the nest looked at the people on the ground who had risen from the dead and stood up again.

Leman Russ smiled and said: "Father used his power to resurrect people at will again. In the more than 20 planets he defeated, not a single person died."

Sanguinius flapped his wings and landed slowly: "Isn't it a good thing that no one will die on the battlefield?"

Leman Russ picked up the wine bottle hanging from his waist and took a sip: "The problem is that he performs miracles everywhere and still refuses to admit that he is a god. There is a lot of trouble in the state church now."

Sanguinius: "It can be said that it uses some kind of, um... super technology or psychic ability"

Leman Russ: "Last time, a warband was crazy enough to blow up a planet. He pinched the planet back in front of everyone, and by the way, he resurrected the entire population of the planet, including the Kromons. They were all resurrected, and Lorgar and Guilliman can only insist that it was just a collective hallucination. I heard that someone on the spacecraft secretly videotaped it and spread it everywhere, and the matter has not been suppressed until now."

Sanguinius: "No one would believe something so outrageous unless they saw it with their own eyes."

Leman Russ: "You have underestimated the level of superstition among the people of the empire today. Under the influence of those state religions, most of the civilians in the empire now believe that this world was created by our father."

Sanguinius was also stunned. He really didn't expect that the current empire could be so stunned.
