From Skaven to God of War

Chapter 419, Great God! Will you come back?
Now there is only one reason left before an outright civil war.

Well, actually there is still a lack of preparation. In most cases, the Ratman Cult and the Ratman Empire are one and the same, and the two are intertwined with each other.

Qi initiated a communication with Sheng Qi after a long time.

Of course, this is not a face-to-face decision in the conventional sense, but a time-consuming and intermittent communication.

The rats have not yet completely solved the communication problem, because this problem involves the subspace. Although their gods have left them a stable subspace road, a miracle that allows them to observe this strange space without having to face the endless chaos, the subspace is still a wonderful book that the rats have not yet opened.

They do not understand the subspace and cannot make more use of the subspace, so subspace communication is naturally impossible for them.

The Ratmen engineers came up with a different solution to this problem. That is, since it is difficult for the super-large starry sky base station to communicate using the subspace, they used a series of things such as light, radio waves, and magnetic fields, plus receiving and transmitting ports with sufficiently large power, to connect the various planets of the Ratmen Empire together on a physical scale.

Of course, even if this concept is realized, it is difficult to avoid the huge delay. Even light has an upper limit on its speed in the physical universe. But it is still necessary to do all this.

Even if it is a delayed connection, it is better than a complete disconnection. Qi's philosophy has not undergone any major changes even now.

That is integration, that is clustering.

After Qi sent a communication request to Sheng Qi, a special signal ship would receive the request and then immediately start the subspace jump. At the next node of this miracle road, the signal ship would receive the message and start jumping again, just like a relay. Such jumps would continue until they finally arrived at the final battle, the Shenqi Star, and were received by Sheng Qi.

If Sheng Qi responded, then what he wanted to express would also have to jump from one stop to another and finally reach Qi.

This is a process that not only looks complicated, but is also extremely complicated to operate. However, in fact, this communication did not take much time in the end.

Qi, the emperor of the empire, and Sheng Qi, the ratman high priest, reached a consensus within two hours.

The last word that appeared in Qi's sight was "good".

Soon, there will be a reason for this civil war, whether Sheng Qi succeeds or not.

………….

Shengqi and Qi reached a consensus about the war, the future of the rat people, and the future of the rat people sect.

Sheng Qi is not stupid. He certainly sees clearly what is going to happen, and his decision is very important to everything that happens later.

From now on, no one is destined to win. In fact, regarding this war, it seems that the Ratman Empire and the Ratman Sect are in irreconcilable conflict, but in fact it is not.

The Ratman sect and the Ratman priests are, to a large extent, one with the current Ratman Empire.

This war is not a war between the Ratman Empire and the Ratman Priests on the surface, but more of a war between Qi and his Embrace, the Ratman bureaucrats and forces who are willing to be loyal to him, a part of the Ratman Empire that is siding with the temple priests, those Ratman bureaucrats and forces who are leaning towards the Ratman priests and the Ratman sects, and another part of the Ratman Empire.

This is a civil war between the Skaven Empire.

In such a situation, the weight of Sheng Qi becomes particularly heavy.

Sheng Qi is not only a high priest of the ratmen, he can also directly influence the decisions and positions of those young ratmen priests who have not reached high positions.

And this is what he wanted.

Qi invited him to join this war, to join this war to destroy the Ratman Sect, and he readily agreed. He would stand beside the Ratman Emperor and, together with the Ratman army in his hands, destroy the current Ratman Sect, along with the countless young Ratman priests who were willing to follow him.

If they win, if the Ratman Empire wins this war, Qi and his army and the vast number of young Ratman priests welcome the victory together, then in the end, will the Ratman sect perish?

Since that wasn't the case, Sheng Qi would naturally agree readily and move his position next to Qi.

He didn't even ask what chips Qi could offer him. Everything was laid out in the open. He was a stupid guy.

The new ratman sect will rise again from the ruins and corpses, this is what he wants, this is what he wants!

Standing on the chaotic ruins, Sheng Qi's eyes were particularly deep.

He has already sensed the curse left by the long claws. He will cut off this damn curse and destroy the church that has already been hatched. For this, he will spare no effort at all costs.

Of course, all this is not for the ratmen, not for the ratman empire, and certainly not for that arrogant guy Qi, but for the great gods and for himself.

Scrape off the rotten flesh and blood, leaving behind the pious rat people, great god, will you come back, great god! Will you come back!
Sheng Qi, whose steps were already fading, withdrew his gaze from the ruins in front of him and began to murmur in a low voice, over and over again. His steps were inexplicably bleak, which made Heishui, who was following behind him, shiver inexplicably.

For some reason, he felt that his boss was getting crazier and crazier.

These days, he is increasingly unable to understand what the boss is doing or thinking.

Looking up, he also started to mutter.

"Great God?"

But what appeared in his eyes was more confusion and an inexplicably complex and tangled emotion.

Of course he knew what God was. He was a guy who had come all the way from the old times. Of course he knew what God was. He had once been a believer in God.

He once bowed devoutly to the great god!

It's just that the great god has been gone for too long, so long that the piety we once had has become a little blurry. He muttered something until Heishui saw Shengqi's figure gradually going away, and then he hurriedly took a step forward.

Heishui had no way of understanding Shengqi's complicated feelings. Perhaps it was because he was born many generations later than Shengqi.

When Heishui was born, the Ratman Empire was already at its peak on the Shenqi Star. At that time, the great gods were already high above. But Shengqi was different. He was different. He was born with the glory of the great gods. He was born with the glory of the great gods. From the time the ratmen were weak to the time they were strong, they were always being watched by the great gods.

They are different. Even if Sheng Qi grasped the great growth of the Age of Gods, he also witnessed it all.

How could Sheng Qi, who witnessed all of this, forget it? How could he dare to forget it?

"Great God, will you ever come back?"

As he murmured, Sheng Qi felt particularly desolate at this moment.

………….

In the ruins of the New Holy City, the aftermath of the terrorist attack has not yet completely subsided.

Ruins, flames, corpses, chaos, and the wailing that has not yet stopped.

There are still a large number of ratmen who have not left the ruins. In fact, many guys cannot leave the ruins. Everything they have, most of the things they have accumulated, their past, their future, their glory, their names, all of these are pinned on this once great city, this once so miraculous city.

But now, everything was destroyed. On that horrible day, in that instant, everything was destroyed, this city, their past, future, glory, name, all of it collapsed along with the city.

What's even more sad is that they can't do anything about it, and no one intends to save them. In such despair, they can only wander in the ruins of this city.

Of course, that’s not entirely true. A skinny boy seems quite content and happy in such a gloomy atmosphere.

This is a rat boy who jumped out from the surface of the barren mountains. He seems to be extremely curious about everything in the ruins, even though all he sees are ruins.

He felt that this place was simply a paradise. Look, the rat people living in heaven, their garbage dumps were so bright and beautiful.

This is really a feeling that makes people not know how to express their feelings. It is quite strange.

However, it is not surprising that the rat boy made such a sigh. After all, he was born rolling in a garbage dump. If this accident and attack had not happened, he would probably have been born in a garbage dump, died in a garbage dump, and rotted in a garbage dump all his life.

The last compliment he could offer was probably "Your garbage dump is so beautiful."

During these days, the rat boy wandered in the ruins. When he was hungry, he would search through the large ruins that could be seen. When he was thirsty, he would also search through the large ruins that occupied all the sight in front of him.

Of course, sometimes he would be driven away by those rat-man survivors who were in a bad mood, but he himself did not take it seriously.

After all, that's the case in the large garbage dump below. The big ratmen will occupy larger garbage dumps and prevent these little ratmen from rummaging through them.

He didn't take it seriously. After all, that was how it was in the huge garbage dump below. But he would not pay attention to the warnings of these big rat people. After all, if he didn't turn over those huge garbage dumps, he wouldn't be able to find enough food. If he couldn't find enough food, he would starve to death. If he listened to those big rat people, he would starve to death, so he didn't listen to those big rat people.

Just run faster after being discovered.

Moreover, these rat people living in the sky are really unguarded, just like now, he was walking and suddenly met an old guy, lowered his head, and hurriedly ran away. When he ran farther away, he opened his palms, and in his hands there appeared a golden pendant and a large golden clock ornament.

If you gently shake the pendant in your hand, you can still hear the crisp sound.

He likes this little wall clock very much.

He recognized these golden things. They were very valuable and could be exchanged for a lot of canned food with the old broken tail. They were almost always looking for such things when rummaging through the garbage dump. If they found one, they would not have to worry about going hungry for many days.

This rat boy rummaged around and pulled out a tattered small waist bag from behind his waist. When he opened the small waist bag, there were many small golden things displayed inside. This rat boy wanted to put the small wall clock in his hand into the waist bag, but seemed a little reluctant. It can be seen that he really liked this small wall clock.

After hesitating for a long time, he carefully hung the small wall clock on the strap of the worn-out waist bag. He had found a lot of valuable things in the past few days and had not had to go hungry for a long time. He didn't need to give this small wall clock to the old man anymore. It was time to go home.

He left happily, skipping away, and with his steps, the small wall clock on his waist swayed and made crisp sounds.

Of course, this happy little creature has no idea who she just met, or how this will change her future.

Rope Seven, who was walking in the ruins, paused. He was glad to see that many eyes were on him. Not all of them had good intentions. It was not surprising. Someone had to bear the anger of these guys who had nothing. The crazy guy who was kicked out of the temple priests and caused all this would not be blamed because he was dead. The dead ratmen could not be blamed. The temple priests who stationed their warships at the Shenqi Star Port, acting like saviors, would not bear the blame because they were not the ratman high priest.

So in the end, who is left to bear the resentment of these guys? Undoubtedly, it is only Sheng Qi. Only Sheng Qi, the high priest of the ratmen, is capable and qualified to bear it all.

Sheng Qi's prestige on other planets of the Ratman Empire may not have suffered much damage, but Sheng Qi's prestige on Shenqi Star has undoubtedly suffered a severe blow.

These guys wandering in the ruins cast all kinds of dark glances at Sheng Qi, the ratman high priest, but they were particularly awkward. The angry, resentful, and chilling glances were mixed with fear, awe, and terror.

They hated Sheng Qi, but they didn't dare to express their resentment directly, which was particularly awkward.

Sheng Qi accepted this kind of sight calmly. If it weren't for the upcoming war, he would have invested all his strength to save everything. Not for anything else, but simply because most of the ratmen in this city, this new holy city, were believers of the great god.

But the war is coming, and there will always be ratmen who will become victims. No real ratman leader is a kind guy.
