Warhammer III

Chapter 34: Election of Cardinals

Death, Pain, Rebirth, Happiness, Redemption Sect!

Taiyue pondered the meaning of these words. The portraits of Slaanesh demons on the walls of the cave showed that the Redemption Sect was indeed a Chaos Sect, but this Chaos Sect did not summon demons, and even the corpses on the ground showed no signs of decay.

Della informed Anwardhouse of the information about the Holy Elephant, and then returned to Uruk with Taiyue.

After Anwardhouse investigated the fourth planet, he had already been waiting for the two on Uruk.

In the meeting room of the strike cruiser, Taiyue and Anwardhouse sat opposite each other, and he also asked Catherine to attend the meeting through remote projection to discuss the follow-up arrangements.

Although Anwardhouse was puzzled by the fact that the Grand Master arranged for the cardinal to attend this meeting, he did not ask.

"God Emperor, the sinners on the fourth planet were transported from the rebellious world more than 100 years ago. There are still more than 1 million descendants of sinners on the planet. It is unclear how many of them have joined the Redemption Sect. Although I have not found any signs of Chaos corruption on the planet, the Redemption Sect worships Slaanesh demons. None of these people can be left alive!"

"Can the Crusaders and Battle Sisters of Trollope purify these heretics?"

He hoped that the armed forces of the church could deal with the Chaos Sect in the galaxy.

"The election of the cardinal will be held in two days. The Crusaders must maintain the law and order of Trollope. The church militia may not be competent for this task. To mobilize the Battle Sisters of the Supreme Church, the order of the Heretic Inquisitor Wilmot is needed. I cannot mobilize them directly at present. Wilmot has gone to the world around the Eye of Terror, and the Astropath has not contacted him for nearly a week."

Although Catherine is a cardinal, she cannot directly command the Battle Sisters.

"Let's transfer the Astra Militarum from outside to handle it. The Crusaders and Sisters of Battle should not move yet to prevent any emergencies in the Holy Elephant."

The Astra Militarum is also known as the Imperial Guard. They are the cornerstone of the human empire. They are so large that they are counted in billions and are mainly responsible for ground combat.

Although they have not received the transformation of superhuman organs, they face the enemies of the empire directly with courage and will, fighting all kinds of monsters on the front battlefield, while the Space Marines are more like special forces, and are more often responsible for decapitation operations.

Tai Yue intuitively felt that this matter was not so simple. There was no clue about the Slaanesh Keeper of Secrets Amnak yet, so the external troops were transferred in case of emergency.

An Wardhouse used the authority of the Inquisition to quickly check the existing Astra Militarum Corps in the Anas Sector, and soon a corps caught his attention.

He waved his hand and projected the information of the legion to the middle of the conference table:

Legion name: Modant Acid Dog Legion;

Recruiting world: Modant No. 1, a mining world. The huge caves and tunnels on the planet connect the entire world. It is famous for mining bioluminescent bacteria. A unique highly corrosive acid can be extracted from the luminescent bacteria and transported to the surrounding casting world as an industrial raw material;

Legion characteristics: specializes in underground tunnel combat and hates mutated flesh.

"The Modant Acid Dog Legion is very suitable for dealing with the Redemption Sect in the mines of the fourth planet. I will contact the Military Affairs Department in the name of the Inquisition and ask them to transfer troops as soon as possible."

The three of them had no objection and supported the Modant Acid Dog Legion to deal with the Redemption Sect.

Tai Yue then asked Della to show the holy elephants that released the corrupt aroma, pointing to the red area and said:

"It is now confirmed that there are 65 holy elephants on the planet that will release the corrupt aroma, but scanning the internal structure of these holy elephants will be disturbed. We have no way of knowing what is inside."

"Just break the words and see what filth is inside!"

An Wardhouse doesn't mind blaspheming the holy elephants.

"God Emperor, after the election of the cardinals is over, I will authorize you to dismantle these holy images and find out the reasons."

The election of the cardinals is imminent, and Catherine does not recommend destroying the holy images now.

Finally, the three reached a consensus and agreed with Catherine's opinion.

After this meeting, the Uruk went directly to Trollope's space station, and the relevant docking records were erased by Catherine.

Two days later, the election of the cardinals was held as scheduled, and countless believers gathered in the believers' square, ready to listen to the prayers of the new cardinal.

In the Bishops' Council Hall, more than 100 cardinals in the star zone entered one after another.

In the middle of the council hall is a long circular table, where the cardinals sit at intervals. There are voting buttons on the table, and the servo heads next to them monitor whether they have violated the rules.

The cardinals of the star zone are elected by these more than 100 cardinals, and the cardinals with more than two-thirds of the votes are elected. If after 30 rounds of voting, no cardinal still has more than two-thirds of the votes, all votes will be counted, and the cardinal with the most votes will be elected.

After the demon in Catherine's body was expelled by Tai Yue, she first met with Clemens, the envoy sent by the Pope, and then continued to meet with other cardinals. Without the psychological burden of demon possession, she wanted to get what belonged to her.

The number of members of the state religion and the wealth of the diocese are one of the favorable conditions for the election, but the most important thing is the influence in the star zone, whether more people can believe in the state religion.

Although Catherine has not participated in state religion propaganda activities in recent years, the heroic deeds of the Marsdan Church militia against chicken thieves have been spread by the wandering merchants, which has brought her reputation to the peak. These situations have been recorded and sorted out in detail by the deacon Adelaide, just for today's election.

Another candidate for the election, Nahum, came to the parliament hall last. His whole body was decorated with gorgeous decorations, and the gems on his head almost filled the bishop's mitre.

Behind him followed a tall battle sister, who was wearing red and black force feedback armor and helmet, with a golden cross on her chest, a silver iris decoration in the middle of the cross, and a silver skull on the top. This is the Martyred Lady Sisters, one of the six most important battle sister orders.

The Battle Sisters is composed of six major sister orders and many secondary sister orders. The sister order on Trollope is only a secondary sister order. The six major sister orders can even directly command the secondary sister orders.

Nahum looked at Catherine who had already taken a seat, with a fierce look on his face. He didn't expect that she could still insist on participating in the election of the cardinal even when possessed by the devil.

After everyone arrived, the election officially began!
