Warhammer 40 A New Hope

At this moment, when all the demons in the subspace were howling and trying to escape, a different figure did the opposite and rushed into the closing golden cage.

"Saris!"

The Eldar Death God, who was originally commanding the Eldar troops to destroy the lost Slaanesh army, when he felt the cage closing, almost without hesitation dropped his troops, rushed into the cage at the fastest speed, and came before Slaanesh.

His action created a hole in the cage that needed to be repaired.

"Unknown changes! We still have a chance!"

Seeing this, Tzeentch screamed, but was then slapped back by Khorne.

"Only one person can get out!" Khorne said, looking at the healing hole. "That person will be..."

A large amount of green plague and mutated mosquitoes wrapped around Khorne's huge body, and Nurgle dragged its bloated body towards the cave entrance.

"I am the God of Life. This world cannot live without..."

thump--!

The flying Slaanesh hit Nurgle, causing him to pause, and then the Eldar's God of Death also jumped over and strung the two gods together.

"You idiot, if you don't go out now, you won't be able to get out!" Slaanesh shouted loudly.

"I don't care!" responded the Eldar Death God.

At this time, the hole was getting smaller and smaller, and it was no longer large enough for a god to pass through intact.

"Tear off a part of yourself and throw it out!" Tzeentch, who was being held back by the Emperor's remaining power, suddenly said. "Otherwise, you won't be able to get out!"

"That's what this damn corpse did! He did it a long time ago! That's why his power can appear in other places!"

As Tzeentch revealed his true identity, the three evil gods of the Warp except Tzeentch simultaneously tore off a part of their bodies and threw it out towards the increasingly smaller hole.

Seeing this, the Eldar Death God also tore off a part of himself and threw it towards the part thrown by Slaanesh.

"!"

The little emperor at the outskirts of the solar system felt the things being thrown out of the cage, but he was trying his best to close the door of the 'cage' and had no ability to intercept them at this time.

"...Gold is not pure, and jade has a slight flaw." The little emperor said. "This is enough for now..."

In the warp, the four gods looked at the hole that had completely closed and let out hysterical roars, while the Emperor's body, which was about to disappear, had a smile on his face.

[Malcador~My old friend~I can finally take a break...]

In the real world, above Terra, Abaddon finally rushed into the palace with his troops. Before he came in, he naturally saw the sky outside surrounded by a golden light curtain.

Now, almost all the imperial guards have been wiped out, and a few are still lingering on, but it's all meaningless.

Passing by the corpses of several Guards and a large number of Chaos Warriors on the ground, Abaddon walked up to the Golden Throne and looked at the disintegrating skeleton.

Phew－－!

The magic sword in his hand pierced into the chest of the dried bones, and after doing all this, Abaddon suddenly sat on the steps in front of the throne.

"I... killed the false emperor... hehe~"

"I destroyed the human empire... hehe~"

"The new empire will definitely be better..."

"Father, is this the right thing to do?"

Then, Abaddon sat in front of the Golden Throne and laughed, as if he was laughing at himself, his decisions, the thirteen expeditions, and the fact that he called himself the successor of Horus.

"Hahahaha! I didn't expect that I would make such a decision in the end..."

"It's really hard to predict... "

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Type-Moon World

Malcador (Heroic Spirit), who was processing documents, suddenly paused with his pen, and then he raised his head.

"..."

"What's wrong, Grandpa Makado?" Ritsuka asked Makado.

"...Nothing." Malcador shook his head and said, "It's just that someone can finally rest..."

"It's almost time. Let's go. We have to stop Horus before he destroys the entire Magic Association~"

. . . . . .

Northern Front

DOM jumped out of an experimental Terminator armor, looked at the suddenly panicked Khorne demons, and then looked in the direction of Terra.

"...well done, my friend."

"Although I'm a little upset that I didn't kill the big one."

. . . . . .

"I think there must be a capable fighter in that shiny golden thing." Grom Ironhide said, stroking his chin. "Okay! After you finish fighting these ugly guys, we'll go find that shiny golden place!"

"No problem! WARBOSS!"

. . . . . .

As the Chosen God of Death, Evelyne naturally noticed the actions of the Eldar God of Death and the weakening connection with her own god after that.

At the same time, they, with their powerful psychic abilities, could also see the glittering presence that appeared shortly after what humans called the "Torch" went out.

It was a cage, a cage big enough to bind gods

. . . . . .

Trazyn stood in front of the [Brilliant Star Map], watching the solar system gradually being enveloped by a golden curtain of light and becoming unobservable, and fell into silence.

"...This 'Collection Room' is truly unique~"

"Well done, Emperor of Mankind."

. . . . . .

Curze and Corax, who finally escaped from Tzeentch's trap, also saw this scene in the Warp, the golden cage that replaced the [Astronomican].

"...Did you see this, Koz?" Corax was silent for a while, then asked the shocked Ke. "Does the so-called unchanging future include these?"

"...No." Coze responded. "It's a little late, but my father is right. I was wrong. The future is not unchangeable."

"It's not too late." Corax said as he looked at the transport plane landing in the sky. "We still have the whole empire to deal with."

. . . . . .

in subspace

Angron looked at the golden cage quietly, and the voice in his head gradually dissipated.

And on the floor of [Death Guard], a panda walking upright was also looking in that direction.

The ascended demon Fulgrim, who had lost most of his perception abilities, and Fulgrim in the real world (his clone), also looked in the direction of Terra at this time.

"Is it worth it, father?" (Perturabo)

On the nameless planet, Archaon, who was alone, looked in the direction of Terra again, turned his head, and continued to move forward.

. . . . . .

The fleet led by Guilliman also arrived at the outer edge of the solar system, and was then intercepted by the fleet led by the young emperor.

"Father, you..."

"The Emperor is gone," the little emperor said. "He has become part of this cage."

After hearing the words of the 'Emperor' in front of him, Guilliman turned around and looked at the golden curtain of light.

"A long nightmare has ended." said the little emperor. "A new and strange future is about to come..."

"And." The little emperor looked at Guilliman. "I am not the emperor..."

"My name is O'Neill."

. . . . . .

[Hope]

"Have a nice trip, old bacon."

316. A New Beginning

"Do I have to sit in this stupid seat?"

"...until you can convince O'Neill (Emperor), yes." Guilliman said, standing beside Zhang Yi.

"Can't you?"

“Ask them who they trust more.”

"QNMD Tzeentch..."

After sacrificing almost half of the Imperial forces, luring the four evil gods to Terra, and then turning the entire solar system into a cage to imprison them and completely sealing it off, Guilliman found Zhang Yi, dragged him to Ultramar, performed the so-called coronation ceremony, and made him the nominal supreme ruler of the New Human Empire - Zhang Yi was confused throughout the whole process.

Because of Jianqi's scheme, many residents of the empire now changed from worshipping the emperor to worshipping Zhang Yi - and some even worshipped both of them.

Although the Four Gods have been imprisoned, their influence still exists, as does the impact and damage they have caused to the empire.

In order to stabilize the situation and avoid unnecessary problems, Guilliman announced the Emperor's death, and then pushed Zhang Yi out in the name of the Emperor (the 'last will' written by O'Neill) to become the nominal temporary ruler of the new empire, thereby stabilizing the current situation of the empire.

Guilliman was not famous enough to convince the public, and O'Neill, who had separated from the Emperor, made it clear that 'he would be a pig if he sat in that position again'.

As for Zhang Yi, because of the information previously released by Tzeentch and a series of precedents such as being canonized as a living saint by the Emperor, he is the most suitable person to sit in this position - although he proposed to implement a parliamentary system or other new methods of ruling, Guilliman believes that it is not appropriate to change the form now.

This was indeed the case. Some of the rebels immediately declared their allegiance to the New Human Empire and rushed to Ultramar without stopping in the hope of making another pilgrimage. O'Neill (the Emperor) was furious. MD, these people wanted to do this to him even after he died. Are they sick? !

Of course, there were also many who said they were loyal to the Emperor. The factions expressed their dissatisfaction and doubt about the Emperor's death, and demanded to go to Terra to confirm it in person. And then nothing happened. O'Neill (the Emperor) personally sent them away (it was so hard to lock up those four guys, you are just trying to stir up trouble, right?!)

Guilliman has already begun rebuilding the stabilized areas, with the forces of Vulkan, Dorn, and Sanguinius assisting him in this effort.

The question of whether to re-determine a new capital for the human empire has been put on hold for the time being. After all, there are too many other things to do now, and it is impossible to decide on a new capital in a short time - Leman Russ even hopes to set it near Fenris (haha).

Now, Leman Russ, Lion, Chagatai and others have started another great expedition. While quelling the rebellion, they are also confirming the current conditions of various planets.

Corax, Curze, and Omega are responsible for intelligence and reconnaissance, including intelligence on the currently controlled areas as well as intelligence and reconnaissance on the occupied areas.

Magnus was responsible for relaying news from the Warp to the new human empire - things like Mortarion starting to chew bamboo.

Without the threat of the four vendors, everything was moving in the right direction, at least for the time being.

The threat of the Warp still exists, and the problems of the Eldar and the Necrons need to be dealt with. The once glorious empire of mankind also needs to be rebuilt on the ruins.

But there is always hope, isn't there?

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

A hive world

A large number of energy bars began to be distributed to the lower and lower classes of the planet. At the same time, a cleanup operation was also started in the dark and gloomy lower levels of the hive cities.

Hidden cultists were cleared out, hidden populations were found, and distorted and hostile creatures were eradicated.

According to the original production structure and efficiency of this planet, the surplus population will be sent to other planets or, after layers of inspection, to other worlds to make up for the lack of labor, open up new planets or become a new interstellar army.

Humanity is changing, starting from now on.

In order to seal the Four Gods, the empire paid a huge price, which required a lot of things to be implemented, completed, and adjusted.

The disappearance of the four gods caused divisions and struggles among the demons. The Nurgle faction was still relatively safe, but the others were in complete chaos - even so, they still posed a considerable threat.

The God of Death, who was born with great difficulty by the Eldar, is gone again. The God of Laughter can do nothing about it. Although the Warp is quiet now, he doesn't have to hide in the Black Library all day.

The disappearance of the Eldar Death God and Slaanesh has plunged the Eldar fleet into chaos and disagreement once again, including the question of whether to take advantage of the human empire's misfortune - they have done such things before.

Although the God of Laughter and the Goddess of Life (fragment) both expressed their opposition to this, the specific outcome is still unknown.

On the other hand, according to reliable sources, the space undead [Silent King], who learned of Zhang Yi's existence, is rushing back from the edge of the galaxy and heading towards the human territory. This makes Chris Pek, the [Emperor] of the [Nihilak Dynasty] a little panicked. Although they are on the side of the [Silent King], they have not yet acquired the technology to restore their physical bodies, which makes them unable to explain to the [Silent King].

As for the Necrons' anxiety, the Empire seemed to have found a handle - they were not in a hurry at all. In response to the Necrons' request to complete the agreement as soon as possible, the Empire said that they still had a lot of things to do and were temporarily busy.

Otherwise, could you send some people over to help us clean up the dust?

Regarding this "reasonable request", then... I saw [Crypt Technicians] controlling and directing [Crypt Beetles] and other helpers on a planet of the Empire, helping the Empire with reconstruction work - it can be seen that they are really in a hurry.

Is the Empire really busy? It is indeed busy, but not so busy that it cannot find any free time.
