Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 422 Savior: Choice is more important than effort, just follow me
The great wizard never thought that he would meet the savior and chaos predator in the Crystal Maze.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind.

Could it be that this savior fell into a trap and was imprisoned here?
And they also said that this person appeared to be the savior of the empire, but in reality he had fallen into chaos and became a servant of the evil god? !

But no matter which guess it is, it clearly points to one result -

The human empire is doomed!

A Primarch who secretly fell into Chaos or betrayal could cause unimaginable damage to the Imperium.

Especially in such a turbulent and dark period.

"Perhaps, the Black Legion will usher in a new expedition, and the Chaos Warmaster will surely rule the galaxy..."

The great wizard thought about it and couldn't help but smile.

However, the voice of the savior, the Chaos Predator, came and gave him an unexpected answer.

"Why am I here..."

Ron came to the great wizard in a leisurely manner and said, "Is it not okay for me to come here for sightseeing?
Please hurry up, if you can't do it, let me do it, don't waste time."

At this time, the guardian of the passage, a huge golden face, gave a puzzle.

The Great Wizard pondered the puzzle and taunted: "Savior, the Golden Gate will not favor those without wisdom, even if you are a Primarch."

Even he himself had spent thousands of years before he gained the wisdom, or knowledge system, to enter the gate.

Any one of these tiny branches is enough for a mortal scholar to devote his entire life to.

The puzzle of this golden gate must be solved by an individual alone, and only one person can enter at a time. He did not believe that the savior could have such wisdom.

“Perhaps, the great sage beside the savior will have a chance to get in and at least pass through three gates.”

The great wizard thought so.

He was able to pass through five golden gates by himself, and this time he was about to challenge the sixth one to obtain the wonderful knowledge behind that gate.

If you can pass through all nine golden gates.

Then he can enter the library that contains infinite knowledge of the universe, obtain any knowledge he wants, and become one of the most intelligent beings in the galaxy!

"*****"

It didn't take long for the great wizard to come up with the answer to the riddle, which was a complex term involving multiple disciplines as well as witchcraft and magic.

Rumbling--

"The correct answer is..."

The huge golden human face surrounded by strange pink and blue energy nodded, and suddenly opened its mouth to form a portal.

It is the gate itself.

"Savior, I look forward to seeing you on the next journey. Of course, the probability of that happening is so small that it can be ignored."

The great wizard stepped through the portal, not forgetting to taunt.

After he returned, he planned to tell the Chaos Warmaster the news of his encounter with the Savior here, or make some predictions and divinations.

See what is going on.

Not long after, the great wizard passed through four golden gates in succession and arrived at the sixth gate.

There are more wandering beings on the platform here, some are mentally confused, and some have even undergone physical mutations, with eyeballs all over their bodies and wailing mouths.

These people were unable to come up with the correct answer for a long time and fell into eternal madness and regret because they could have gained unlimited knowledge.

The great wizard listened to the mumblings of these beings and absorbed the knowledge contained therein. These lunatics were all high-level wizards, scholars, forging experts, etc. in the galaxy.

Possessing many skills and knowledge.

He even obtained the process of a certain prophecy system from an ancient witch from a feudal Middle Ages tens of thousands of years ago.

That is a lost art.

This is the preciousness of the knowledge channel. Too many beings lost here become knowledge itself.

Afterwards, the great wizard listened to the riddle uttered by the giant golden face. The riddle given by this guardian was so difficult that he had no idea where to think.

Fortunately, he had plenty of time to answer.

If they wish, pilgrims can even stay here and think forever.

There is a risk of getting lost and becoming crazy.

"I won't become crazy..."

The great wizard thought confidently that he had been here many times, and although it was difficult, he had come back from the brink of being lost several times.

As the chief wizard of the Black Army, he would never succumb to chaos, but would use it.

This is what the Chaos Warmaster has always done.

A gap for thinking.

The great wizard suddenly thought of the savior again. He wondered whether that arrogant, conceited guy who thought he could do everything had passed through the first door?
Even if it is possible, it might just be luck.

Roar!
A sharp roar was heard.

The eighty-ninth great demon of the Lord of Change, Baru the Fateweaver, arrived here.

"Give in!"

This being flapped its wings and used colorful magic to knock away the lost ones, clearing a path. More great demons stood on both sides of the road and continued to drive away the lost ones.

Many people who were answering questions here were also forced to squeeze into the crowd.

Even the great wizards are like this.

Although the chief wizard of the Black Legion was a little annoyed, he did nothing.

He knew of this Tzeentchian Daemon named Baru, a being that was a recently emerged and favored Fateweaver.

Participated in many wars against other Chaos Realms and achieved fruitful results.

No one dared to doubt the amazing achievements of this destiny weaver.

Moreover, that guy was extremely rude, not like a destiny weaver at all. He preferred to use brutal force to solve problems, making him an outlier in the Crystal Maze.

The great wizard did not want to provoke the other party unless it was necessary, especially in the realm of the Lord of Change.

In fact, that was just Baru's disguised reckless personality. He was very smart in private.

Moreover, due to his unplanned and mindless actions, his success rate in operations was greatly increased, coupled with the cooperation of other traitors in the Chaos Realm.

This is how we achieved such an amazing result and advanced to the next round.

“There are quite a lot of people here…”

Ron walked along the road and stepped onto the platform, accompanied by the Ever-changing Healer, the Blue Fear Monster and the Pink Fear Monster, just like he was visiting a scenic spot with a group of followers.

In addition to the big devil leading the way, there were also special personnel explaining the relevant attractions to him.

This is a proper tourist tour and it is a VIP service.

???

In the crowd, the great wizard widened his eyes and realized that something was wrong. Before, he was concentrating on solving the puzzle and did not pay attention to the relationship between the Fate Weaver and the Savior.

The empire's primarch of hope and savior was in the crystal maze as if he was in his own territory.

And there is also a famous destiny weaver to accompany him?
This is the realm of chaos!

He suddenly wondered if the world was changing too fast, or if he had stayed in the maze for too long and some situations had changed dramatically?

The great wizard was a little confused. After all, he was good at research on witchcraft and the occult, not intrigue.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind like lightning, and he screamed loudly: "You...you, you, how could you solve the puzzle so quickly?"

The great wizard couldn't believe it, his hands holding the staff were shaking, as if he had discovered the most incredible thing in the galaxy.

Could it be that this Primarch also possesses a wealth of knowledge like the Lord of Steel Perturabo and his former genetic father, the Red King Magnus?

That's absolutely impossible!
According to the known information, the savior showed almost no knowledge or wisdom, and was even inferior to the most ordinary scholars.

What's more, even for a wizard like himself who is a genius among geniuses, it took him thousands of years to reach this place.

How could the Savior pass through so many golden gates alone? !
The great wizard was stunned.

He thought of something and became serious. He thought to himself, "Perhaps this savior, the Chaos Marauder, has been hiding his strength. What we, the Black Legion, have to face... is a more terrifying enemy!"

"What?"

Ron turned around after hearing what the great wizard said and said, "What puzzle is there to solve? It's easy to get in."

"impossible……"

The great wizard took a deep breath and said, "If you don't solve the riddle, no one can enter the gate. That is an absolutely unchangeable rule.

You can no longer deny and hide your wisdom, just acknowledge it!"

He insisted that the Saviors were retaining strength.

"Pilgrim, you must answer a question..."

At this time, the huge golden face turned its gaze to the savior in the center of the platform.

As the crowd was driven away, he was left standing there alone.

Therefore, he got the right to solve the puzzle first.

Then, the golden face uttered an obscure riddle.

The great wizard listened and found that this puzzle was just as complicated as his own.

There is no solution at all.

He stared at the Savior, wanting to know how he would solve the puzzle.

However, the savior seemed not to have understood the question. He had a confused look on his face and was simply in a daze.

"Even the savior has come this far, it's impossible that he doesn't understand the question, right?" This scene made the great wizard a little confused.

dong dong dong-

"Guardian brother..."

In everyone's sight, Baru, the evil devil and cunning fate-weaver, ran to the huge golden human face with a grunt, looking quite sneaky.

He leaned close to the golden-faced man's ear, as if to whisper something, but the sound came out completely:

"These are the distinguished guests invited by the Lord of Change. They must arrive at the library as soon as possible. You understand, right?"

The golden-faced man frowned and lowered his voice: "Our duty is to guard the gate. We must solve the puzzle before we can enter. That is the rule, just like the eternal crystal maze..."

"Lord of Change, after this is over, I will work out a plan to solve your vacation problem..."

Baru and the golden-faced man conspired loudly, passing on some information from time to time, as if they were discussing something.

After that, the golden-faced man got the promised benefit and showed an expression of "leave it to me", then looked at the savior and asked a new question:
“1+1=?”

Ah? ? ?
When the great wizard heard this riddle, his eyes widened in disbelief.

Is this also a puzzle?!
That was the first time in thousands of years that he had encountered something that completely challenged his cognition.

Ron listened to the question carefully, and then gave the answer without hesitation:

"The answer is... 3!"

rumbling~
When the huge golden face heard this answer, the whole door shook and it was a little shocked for a moment.

He was silent for a while and took a deep breath: "Correct...correct answer..."

Then, with a loud rumbling sound, the portal to the next passage opened.

This golden gate that trapped countless intelligent beings was opened to the savior.

“This… is this even possible?!”

The great wizard was shaking all over and could hardly hold his staff. At this moment, his worldview collapsed.

If the savior can enter so easily, what is the point of all my thousands of years of desire and hard work?
For that knowledge.

He devoted almost his entire life to it, thinking and learning all the time, even betraying the Human Empire, escaping into the Eye of Terror, and becoming a member of the Black Legion!
"This is a shady deal. This is unfair!"

The great wizard was a little overwhelmed, and started shouting towards the golden gate, feeling extremely aggrieved.

To this being, everything in front of him was like a bicycle that he had never ridden and had carefully maintained, but was being pedaled hard by someone else.

The mysteries of knowledge and the eternal and immutable rules were blatantly trampled upon.

Thousands of years of hard work have turned into a complete joke.

This made it unbearable for him.

But these words are particularly ridiculous in Tzeentch's realm.

Not only the great wizard, but also some other pilgrims eager for knowledge protested.

"Wrong answer, wrong answer, totally wrong answer!"

Seeing that a pilgrim dared to challenge him, the huge golden man's face turned red, and smoke came out of his mouth and nose: "You have disturbed the order and lost the qualification to answer.

You will be expelled!"

In an instant, several tentacles covered in eyeballs stretched out from the abyss below the platform and entangled all the protesters.

Leaving them no room to struggle.

Afterwards, one protester after another was expelled from this chaotic area.

Only the great wizard was struggling to hold on.

"No, Guardian of the Passage, please forgive my unreasonable offense..."

Tears could be seen faintly in the great wizard's cloudy eyes. He was completely panicked and didn't want his life's work to be ruined.

I am even more unwilling to lose the extremely tempting knowledge behind the door.

That would be worse than death!

"I need this person to complete the agreement with Big Blue... the Lord of Change."

Ron looked at this scene and made a slight gesture. Baru understood and immediately went to negotiate with the guardian.

At that moment, the tentacles entwined around the eyeball also stopped.

This was within his expectations.

Now that the big blue bird is in a hurry, his existence that can resist Nurgle is particularly important, and it also gives him more room for communication temporarily.

Maybe that's why the big blue bird left.

He didn't want to stay in this kind of environment where he could be threatened, even in the slightest.

That might cause Him to lose more benefits.

Ron came in front of the great wizard Zarafiston and looked down at him:

"Xiao Zha, you are still too young. Some things cannot be achieved just by hard work and brute force. You also need to consider the ways of the world..."

In the territory of the big blue bird, how can one be so foolish as to follow the rules? That being itself is a collection of capriciousness and non-rule-abiding beings.

If you follow his rules, you will most likely be killed.

Of course, rules can be broken, but not just anyone can break them.

Just like these pilgrims, followers of Tzeentch.

They have no right to destroy, so they can only follow the rules and spend hundreds or thousands of years seeking the knowledge they desire.

"Have you ever heard the saying that choice is more important than hard work?"

Ron extended his hand to the great wizard, as if to protect him: "You have no future if you follow that guy Abaddon.

Perhaps you can make new choices.

For example, if you follow a real and powerful Primarch, you will have the opportunity to follow him into the library with infinite knowledge and receive the gift..."

He just swung the hoe and started digging.

Now he needs high-level wizards to deal with the dark creations in the warp, such as the corrupted machines made by the great moth Mortarion.

That is also one of the keys to suppressing the plague war.

"I will not betray..."

The great wizard lowered his head, seemingly unwilling to accept the olive branch thrown by the savior.

But Ron saw the hesitation in the other party's expression and gave him an ultimatum: "You only have one chance to answer, yes or no!"

He waited for a few seconds, then turned and left without waiting for the other party's response.

But at the moment of turning around, the Great Wizard's dejected voice came: "Chaos Predator, I... I am willing to follow you..."

Ron stopped, stretched out his hand and pulled the great wizard up, smiling gently:

"Xiao Zha, you made the right choice."

He knew that this guy couldn't resist the temptation of that knowledge, or even any pilgrim here could refuse it.

Afterwards, the great wizard used witchcraft rituals to pledge his loyalty, as well as more secrets about the Black Legion and the Chaos Warmaster.

Although this cannot guarantee that the other party will not betray again, at least he can no longer stay with Abaddon.

Ron wasn't worried about it either.

When this guy secretly runs away to the Black Abyss Star as agreed, he will naturally receive the blessing of darkness and be more firmly restricted.

Zaraphiston, the chief wizard of the Chaos Warmaster and an important figure ranking among the Black Legion, had thus been accepted by the Savior.

It was also an unexpected and important gain.

That will bring unimaginable benefits, and the strength of the Legion of Terror will further increase.

"Oh, I regret it..."

Ron felt a little bit sorry for it, as he had been staring at Lao Dun for some time.

You're almost tearing the skin off someone.

The great wizard stared at the golden door, with some desire and prayer: "Savior, will you..."

"Small problems, they are all our own people."

Ron patted the great wizard on the shoulder and looked at Baru and the guardian: "This is the person I want, you guys can do whatever you want..."

It didn't take long.

The huge golden face showed a kind smile and asked a very simple riddle again.

The great wizard gave the answer with a trembling voice, and the sixth golden portal opened with a bang.

The sixth portal of wisdom that he had been struggling to challenge for hundreds of years was opened so easily, and the same was true for the subsequent portals.

The road to knowledge will be smooth!
Everything he had dreamed about day and night for thousands of years, the infinite and wonderful knowledge, was now laid out before him, and he had to pay the price.

Just loyalty.

The great wizard looked at the back of the savior, and there was a touch of emotion in his cloudy eyes, and an idea popped up in his mind:
"I didn't follow the wrong person. Praise the Savior and Chaos Reaver!"

Afterwards, Ron, along with the All-Changing Healer and the Great Wizard, continued to move forward under the guidance of Baru and other chaotic beings.

They will arrive at that library and get the answers and knowledge they want.

Ron thought:

"Hiss~ This is a rare opportunity. I don't know if I can take it away..."

That library is so mysterious and extremely precious. Now that I'm here, I might as well take a look at it.

Isn’t that a loss?
