Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 532 Savior: It’s bad, the emperor is dying? !
The appearance of cracks means that the Golden Throne is becoming increasingly worse and unable to bear the weight.

It is likely to collapse because of this.

At that time, the Empire will face a terrible disaster, and the Emperor will completely sink into the Warp because he has lost the constraints of the throne.

When the mechanical sages discovered this, they became terrified.

It seemed as if the sky of the empire was about to collapse.

It's not just them.

If this news were to be exposed, the entire human empire would probably fall into fear and turmoil, destroying the already eased situation.

Fortunately, the Imperial Guards and the Savior personnel stationed in the palace blocked the news in time and appeased the relevant mechanical sages.

Even the High Lord was not allowed to know this news.

There has been a lesson learned before. The last time there was a problem with the Golden Throne, the Dark Eldar were attracted due to the intervention of the Supreme Lords.

It almost led to a disaster.

The problem this time is even more serious. The collapse of the Golden Throne is difficult to reverse. If those guys find out, they will inevitably be in greater trouble out of fear.

As an important senior member of the Savior Territory in Holy Terra, Deville also received this news.

But the chief judge was not too flustered.

"As long as His Majesty the Savior is still here, the sky of the human empire will not fall, and the sun will live forever..."

he thought so.

Deville never doubted the Savior.

He believed that the being could handle everything, and the Ers Mechanicus was also conducting research and related preparations for the Golden Throne.

All you have to do is fulfill your duties and be loyal.

Now his duty as the chief judge is to take advantage of this opportunity to further consolidate the authority of the savior.

Make the sun more dazzling.

"Sir, all the personnel of the Supervisory Department have gathered and are waiting for your orders."

At this time, the deputy wearing a black windbreaker and with a cold look came over to report.

He was fully armed and ready to fight, able to tear and crush the rebels at any time.

"let's start……"

Deville nodded, smiled and gave the order, but his smile was a little cruel, like a declaration of death.

Any order from the Grand Inquisitor means the death of heresy and rebellion.

That's one of the reasons people fear him.

He is so determined that he dares to destroy any target under the will of the savior, no matter who it is.

Even if the Savior ordered the bombing of Holy Terra, he would not hesitate to sacrifice his life to accomplish this task.

Without any hesitation.

"For the Savior!"

The deputy suddenly raised his hand to salute, then turned and walked away quickly, with the spacing between his steps exactly the same.

This is the Supervisory Department.

Wearing black windbreakers and red armbands, they are cruel and indifferent. They are always silent and appear in front of the rebels when they are least expected.

Then send them into the cruel abyss.

In terms of power, they acted unscrupulously in Holy Terra, not restricted by anyone except the Savior, and even the Inquisition had to be monitored.

In terms of military strength, many of them are genetically modified Space Marines with the best weapons and able to mobilize a large number of troops and Titan forces.

The Supervisory Department is the black glove of the savior, a special guard in public, an enhanced version of the Inquisition, and it is internally united.

It made all departments of the empire fear it.

Deville raised his hand and gently swiped it, projecting a densely packed blacklist in front of him, involving many high-ranking members of the empire.

The social security management of Holy Terra is only an overt action. He wants to take advantage of this chaos to carry out an unprecedented purge of the management of Holy Terra.

To eliminate the remaining opponents and obstacles to the existence of the new regime for the savior, in order to resolve all hidden dangers.

That is something that must be done if there are too many remnants of the party left in the new regime.

There will be endless troubles.

Deville knew that it was impossible for His Majesty the Savior to issue such a cruel order or make such a decision.

Simply put, this was a decision he made on his own.

But as the Grand Inquisitor, Deville must fulfill such duties. The Savior appointed him just for this moment.

That's a tacit understanding.

This may be the last thing he can do for His Majesty the Savior.

Such a large-scale purge is bound to create a lot of hatred and dissatisfaction. After the purge, when the situation stabilizes, it will be the end of his duty as a vicious dog.

His Majesty the Savior will deal with the evil dog that made the decision on his own, calm the final impact, and rule his empire with a new political structure.

This Grand Inquisitor, Supreme Lord, one of the most powerful high-ranking members of the Empire, will sacrifice himself to offer the best gift for the Savior's enthronement.

Soon, the social security management operation of Holy Terra began, and relevant management regulations and laws were also issued.

The Ministry of Justice complies with relevant laws and orders and leads the Sun Auxiliary Army and security forces to carry out a larger-scale special operation to combat, prevent and control any destabilizing factors.

Especially against demonstrations and provocative acts, in order to maintain the harmony and stability of Holy Terra.

Allow residents to live and work in peace and contentment.

This action has the characteristics of the Savior's territory, without the ruthlessness and cruelty of the empire in the past.

Sound-generating facilities in various hive areas played the hymn of the Savior, calling on all residents to abide by relevant rules and regulations and not to participate in activities organized by criminals.

Otherwise, there will be severe punishment and crackdown.

Afterwards, the relevant forces began to arrest illegal organizations, elements, and people who were looking for trouble in various regions, and gave them corresponding levels of punishment and education.

Even sentenced to death.

at the same time.

The Ministry of Supervision secretly mobilized more armed forces and began a purge of various departments.

Due to the previous rounds of purges, the spies of many departments and forces were eliminated on a large scale, making the actions of the Supervision Department more covert.

This activity was not announced in advance to avoid causing further confusion.

……

The city of wishers.

General Affairs Court of the Ministry of the Interior, Office Hall of the Taxation and Archives Department.

This department is responsible for correcting and handling the empire's backlog of tax files. It can only sort out the old accounts and compile them into corresponding data for uploading.

Only in this way can we better help the tax department to re-adjust and evaluate the civilized world throughout the empire and abolish some abnormal and erroneous tax items.

As usual, the Secretary General of Archives convened a meeting of his administrative officials to listen to reports and assign government affairs for the next cycle.

The secretary reported some problems with file management, some of which were quite absurd.

For example, a merchant dynasty owes the empire a throne coin and has not returned it for 130 cycles. The document also asks whether to continue to send personnel to urge it to return it?

No one knows how such an absurd document entered the empire's administrative process.

But once such a document enters the process, no matter how absurd it is, it will be executed according to the imperial procedures, and will be stamped and reviewed by one department after another year after year, and personnel will be dispatched to handle it.

It's like a human-computer program.

Unless you are able to change Imperial law and procedures, this is what you will have to do.

Just this one throne coin consumed tens of thousands of hours of work by many administrative personnel of the empire, consuming a huge amount of manpower and material resources.

I don’t know whether this is considered as the empire’s strictness or stubbornness.

If it weren't for the Savior's reforms, the psychic network facilities would have intervened to sort out all government processes.

This absurd document may continue to flow through the imperial process forever.

However, according to information obtained by the new department, the merchant dynasty had collapsed 130 years ago, and this was confirmed by the Tribunal.

Unfortunately, since the archival data between the Tribunal and the Ministry of the Interior were not interconnected, it was drowned in the vast amount of information.

The Ministry of the Interior still followed the procedures and demanded payment from the merchant dynasty, but due to relevant laws, it was impossible to identify them as traitors and enforce collection.

That absurd document just kept spinning in the Ministry of the Interior's process until more than a hundred years later, when it was discovered and unsealed due to data sharing among various departments.

The Archives Secretary stood on the steps, listening quietly and yawned.

He didn't have much interest in these things, and even felt a little disgusted.

"Damn savior, he took away our power..."

The Archives Secretary thought bitterly in his heart.

The exchange of data and the reorganization of archives can certainly improve the efficiency and accuracy of the empire's government affairs, but it also exposes many unknown secrets to the sun.

This also caused serious damage to the interests of his hereditary family, and they lost the power to control archives and conduct transactions.

This is how it is in Holy Terra. Any power is divided among corresponding families and is inherited from generation to generation.

However, the Primarch of Hope destroyed all of this.

What is even more troublesome is that they have no means or ability to stop it and can only vent their grievances secretly and seek new interests under the existing political system.

Suddenly, the hall became quiet and silent, with only the dull footsteps of power armor being heard.

The Archives Secretary noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

He raised his head as if he saw something terrible, and suddenly froze in place.

It was a Savior lackey in a black windbreaker and red armband, followed by two heavily armed and menacing Imperial Fists warriors.

Everyone knows what this means—there are heretics and rebels in this hall!
"Your Majesty, you are not here to find me..."

The Archives Secretary's body was shaking uncontrollably and he was praying in his heart.

The same was true for other government officials. Many of them had sweat on their foreheads and dared not breathe, for fear of attracting the attention of those black-clad Grim Reapers.

However, when the official from the Ministry of the Interior saw the look from the judge from the Ministry of Supervision, he knew that everything was over.

Those guys are here to find me!
"me……"

The Archives Secretary General tried to explain but couldn't utter any words. However, as a high-ranking official, he still maintained a normal attitude.

He didn't dare to resist, and no one dared to resist.

As we all know, when facing the Supervision Department, those who confess will be treated leniently, while those who resist will be treated severely.

If you tell the truth, you still have a chance to survive.

Once you resist, you will be classified as a rebel and lose the chance to survive, and even your family will be implicated.

This was a deliberate result created by the Supervisory Department. Compared to the recklessness and brutality of the Tribunal, they were more restrained and focused on efficiency.

Generally speaking, the judges of the Supervisory Department would take people away politely and would also inform the other party's family depending on the circumstances.

But if force is used, it will be the wrath of thunder.

The many families and planetary territories destroyed by heavy weapons and even the divine Titans are bloody examples.

Between possible death and inevitable death, any civil servant with normal intelligence knows what to choose, especially when the Supervisory Department still holds absolute power.

Therefore, many government officials who are under investigation will obediently follow the judges of the Supervisory Department and dare not resist in any way.

This invisibly reduces the cost of capture and is more deterrent.

"Mr. Secretary General, please come with us."

The Inquisitor looked at the other party, his calm voice had a hint of indifference, and the two Imperial Fists warriors behind him also became more alert.

Be ready to take action at any time.

The archives secretary general was suspected of disloyalty and inciting chaos, but when the Supervision Department took people away, they never said why.

Facing everyone's gazes, the Archives Secretary General had lost the ability to speak.

His face was pale and he tried hard to suppress the trembling of his body. He slowly walked down the stairs, but it seemed that he couldn't even straighten his legs and he staggered with every step.

It seemed that he would fall to the ground in the next second because of weak legs, like a drunk duck.

The Imperial Fists warriors stepped forward and supported the Secretary-General, and the group walked out, leaving only their terrifying backs behind.

The hall remained silent and uneasy until the people from the Supervisory Department left.

But soon, instructions came from superiors, ordering the deputy to temporarily replace the secretary-general in charge of the work.

This brought some life back to the hall.

The purge initiated by Grand Inquisitor Deville was precise and silent, as one person after another was taken away for investigation, with almost no news or unrest reaching the outside world.

That was the most terrifying thing, and no one dared to resist.

Especially some high-ranking personnel who heard the news only dared to curse secretly in an empty secret room.

And dare not make any rebuke.

According to the information currently circulating, the Imperial Guards, the Imperial Fists, the Angels of War, and the Assassins' Court have all participated in the capture operation. The surface defenses of various areas have been quietly activated, and the Titan Machines are also being preheated.

There are also many fleets gathering in secret.

In this situation, who dares to say anything and how can they resist?

The Grim Reaper in a black windbreaker from the Supervisory Department seemed to be everywhere, taking away relevant personnel at the exact place and time, and then disappearing.

When the Supervisory Department came to some noble families, they would tie up their people in advance and leave the door open for the Inquisitor to take them away.

Some people also committed suicide out of fear of punishment when they learned that the Supervision Department was coming.

Gradually, bloodstains appeared in some office areas.

That was the blood left behind when the person being investigated tried to resist.

All departments of Holy Terra were gradually shrouded in black terror. No one knew who would be taken away today and whether it would be their turn.

Chief Judge Deville followed the established procedure.

The rebels in the political system and those who might affect the ruling system of the Savior were cleared out bit by bit, and many priests of the state religion were taken away.

The only thing to be thankful for is that he did not carry out a large-scale killing spree, and many people involved in the case were only arrested, detained or dismissed.

Still, more than a million rebels were executed.

This was the largest purge since the Plague of the Primarch and the Terran Spring, and more administrative officials were dealt with than before.

City of Prayers, residential area.

A clerk returned home and complained a few words about the abominable nature of the Supervisory Department.

But when he mentioned the Savior, his wife immediately stopped him:

"Are you crazy? Don't you want to live or get paid?!"

The clerk suddenly remembered that all resources and material supplies of Holy Terra were now provided by the Savior.

This allowed them to escape from their previous poverty and eat bread and meat. Occasionally, the department would distribute coffee, snacks and other supplies as welfare.

It can be said that the living standards have changed dramatically, from refugees to well-off people.

This is also one of the reasons why the Grand Inquisitor's purge did not cause much resistance. The Savior provided for the entire Holy Terra, and everyone ate and drank the Savior's food.

Even the salaries and supplies were paid by him.

Under such circumstances, it is difficult for the top officials of the empire to instigate larger-scale opposition and rebellion. Causing the current chaos is already the limit.

It was also defined as a public security issue, which was easily suppressed and then purged.

This was unthinkable for the former Holy Terra. If a regime change did not result in the deaths of billions of people, it was not called a regime change.

However, it is what it is.

The Savior truly controls Holy Terra, and his control may be even stronger than that of the original Emperor.

After all, the Emperor at that time had to compromise and make special deals with various forces. The Primarch and his children were also a bunch of arrogant and powerful generals. The Savior would not compromise at all, and the evil dogs under his command directly launched a large-scale purge.

No rebellion has yet to occur.

……

Imperial Senate.

Grand Inquisitor Deville requested a meeting to discuss the next steps with the Supreme Lords.

The Supreme Lords looked at the two empty seats in silence.

The two High Lords have been imprisoned, awaiting trial by the Primarch of Hope.

"Everyone, the cleanup is over, and we should push forward some vital matters."

Deville broke the silence.

His words also made the Supreme Lords feel a little relieved despite their dissatisfaction.

After that, they began to set a date for the coronation ceremony. Even if the savior could not return in time, a temporary ceremony had to be held to confirm his right to rule.

After the purge, there was basically no one in Holy Terra who could influence the new ruling system.

"Perhaps, we should erect a new statue of the Primarch of Hope, the Savior..."

Moore, the Supreme Lord, the Sun Lord, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Astra Militarum, enthusiastically put forward a suggestion.

Since the Primarch Savior is hoped to become the new ruler of the Empire, his status cannot be equal to that of other Primarchs as before.

A taller and larger statue must be erected, and it must be placed in the middle of the Square of Heroes.

To reflect its majesty.

This proposal was approved by all the supreme lords, and no one dared to object.

The image of the new savior statue was also in golden armor, very similar to the emperor, and even the state religion agreed reluctantly.

But the Pope of the Anglican Church still weakly raised an objection:
"Emperor, the specifications of the new statue seem to be higher than the original one. Does it need to be adjusted?!"

Chief Inquisitor Deville hesitated for a moment, but still insisted on the original design.

That is not blasphemy against the Emperor.

Because the golden sun on the head of the new statue represents the emperor, it is the first step in the transformation of religious influence and does not allow any compromise.

Eventually, the proposal to build the new icon was approved and a date was set for the temporary coronation of the Savior.

After the relevant news was announced, the social security management action also achieved initial results.

The Ministry of the Interior and other departments also followed suit and announced the establishment of a new holiday - the Coronation Day of the Savior, to celebrate the arrival of the day when that being will rule.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs also announced that due to the coronation of the Savior, all material inputs and supplies in Holy Terra will be doubled from now on.

Let this throne world usher in a new look.

As soon as the news came out, the oppressive atmosphere in Holy Terra dissipated and was greeted with jubilation.

After all, many people did nothing, but their rewards were doubled just because of the coronation of the savior.

Who wouldn't be happy about this?
With the erection of new icons, the holding of temporary coronation ceremonies and the promulgation of various welfare measures, people's reverence for the Savior grew and public support reached new heights.

Holy Terra cannot live without a savior, just like the sky cannot live without the sun!
-
When various changes are happening in Holy Terra.

not long ago.

Black Throne area.

In front of the throne, Ron stood side by side with the Emperor, his hands held high, declaring himself the new ruler of the Empire.

While he was excited, he suddenly felt a little cold.

"Sigh~"

Ron looked down and immediately gasped.

Because he saw his strong chest muscles, and it seemed that he was participating in the Galaxy's psychic live broadcast with his powerful body.

At this moment, the savior's body seemed to be made of pure gold, with clear edges and corners, and was covered with many wounds. It looked even more majestic under the shining holy light.

But he still vaguely felt that he was an exhibitionist, and several times he broadcast live in the form of psychic energy.

The ladies of the empire were unable to sleep.

Fortunately, the vision created by the Emperor disappeared soon after.

Afterwards, everyone present except the Savior was ordered to leave, as the Emperor and the Savior had important matters to discuss.

The Emperor staggered to the Black Throne and sat down, even the psychic communication was intermittent.

His voice had never been so tired: "You should have received the news, right?"

Ron nodded solemnly.

However, the emperor's next words made him feel nervous: "I can't hold on any longer. Find a way to kill me as soon as possible..."

The voice of the Lord of Mankind was intermittent.

He was so sad and self-blaming, his eyes were so earnest, even pleading:
“All of this is my fault. The destruction of the Golden Throne is irreversible. By then, my divinity will be completely freed from its shackles, causing an irresistible disaster.

You, my successor, must end my life before then!"

This may be the emperor's most vulnerable moment, his last trust before death.

"So it's still about the Golden Throne..."

Ron felt relieved when he heard this.

He patted his chest, full of confidence:

"Don't worry, old man. I can solve the problem of the Golden Throne and make sure everything is arranged properly for you!"
