Plunder the Heavens from Warhammer

Chapter 228: Evidence? No evidence is needed to quell a rebellion!
The next day.

It was, as Luciennie had said, a fine day.

The cursed scar that opened up from the Great Rift dimmed its rare color, allowing the warm sunlight to fall on Hyperion.

However, after what happened yesterday when two heavyweights, the heir of Valsius and the planetary governor, were assassinated by the Dark Eldar, the nobles of the Upper Nest were a little uneasy.

Because until now, it is not clear whether the heir of Valsius is dead or alive. The only thing they know is that the planetary governor visited Valsius’s mansion yesterday, then walked out with a gloomy face, and then sent an invitation to all the nobles, big and small, in the upper nest.

In name, it was Valsius's accountability, and the Governor of the Vigilant Planet, Lucienni, and all the nobles were required to give a reasonable explanation.

Although I know there is something wrong with this invitation, who would dare to say no at this critical juncture?

You're not going?
Very good, then you are feeling guilty!

Don't talk about evidence. Traveling merchants never need evidence, and they are often very strong in fighting skills. We are all nobles, so who doesn't know your little thoughts?
In principle, evidence is needed, but the problem is that the principle is now in the hands of Valshus.

The "Sword of Redemption" conqueror cruiser arrived in the space orbit of the Hyperion sector yesterday. The Imperial Navy fleet dared not say a word for fear of being affected.

If we can't produce any results, maybe there will be some small problems with other people's macro cannons...

Rely on the state religion and Huangquan No. 8?
There is no hope. One of them is busy developing believers, and the other is busy mining minerals. As long as 'Valxius' doesn't provoke them, they won't bother to pay attention.

No noble wanted to be hit on the head by a macro cannon, and besides, they had to obey the orders of the planetary governor, so they all went to the Agamemnon family.

Of course, on the way here, many nobles had already secretly discussed that they would take advantage of this time when Valsius was questioning them to put all the blame on Agamemnon and let them take the blame!

"Quiet!"

Suddenly, Lucyennie spoke.

In the turbulent hall, many nobles turned their eyes to the current Countess of Agamemnon and the nominal ruler of Vigilance, the planetary governor: Her Excellency Lucienni Agamemnon.

Looking at the nobles, some with contempt, some with ridicule, some with doubt, etc., Lucyennie was calm and not agitated at all: "I think you all should know what happened yesterday, right?"

"Governor, this matter has nothing to do with us." One of the old men laughed sinisterly, "As for accountability... Such a big problem actually occurred in the area you rule. This is a serious dereliction of duty."

Lucyanne glanced at the other person and confirmed... that it was the person on the list who was secretly infected by the Genestealer. She sneered in her heart, but her face remained calm.

She was observing, as Alvin had taught her.

See clearly who is valuable, who can be used, who is deliberately sowing discord, who is stupid, and who is on the side of Agamemnon.

As expected, just as Lord Alvin had expected, under the instigation of the nobles infected by the Genestealers, many people soon emerged and accused Lucyne and Agamemnon of dereliction of duty, forming a joint condemnation, which seemed to be an opportunity to force them.

But there were still a few veteran nobles who seemed to be waiting and observing her reaction.

Those who agreed with her have been remembered by her.

In Lucy's mind, these people must be purged, while those who remain silent can be won over.

"Yes, I admit... I failed in my duties as the planetary governor and failed to live up to the expectations of His Majesty and the Empire."

Lucienne looked at the hall. Those nobles who used to be as annoying as flies and always hindered her were unexpectedly calm and did not seem to be angry at all.

She tapped the armrest gently and spoke in a steady, calm voice, "But what makes me even more sad is that there is a traitor among us. I have already investigated yesterday's assassination. It was someone among you who secretly contacted the Dark Eldar. This is a heresy that the Empire cannot tolerate!"

The sound was like thunder!

In an instant, the nobles who had been accusing Agamemnon and were almost excited in the previous second suddenly calmed down and looked at the female governor in disbelief.

Until this moment, many of the nobles in the upper nest, who had been pampered and greedy like pigs on weekdays, suddenly realized that today's banquet... did not seem to be that simple!
Something is wrong!
There's something 100% wrong!

They knew Agamemnon too well. It was because he attached too much importance to face and aristocratic honor that he was excluded by the state religion and Huangquan No. 8, and his power was gradually eroded away.

But now, it seems different.

"Governor, what do you mean by this?"

Several nobles who had been making the most noise and the loudest noise just now were now sweating profusely.

Damn, this woman is crazy!
As soon as Lucyennie finished speaking, hundreds of noble lords from major families and imperial titles present at the scene suddenly broke out in cold sweat!
Everyone reacted now.

Lucienne gathered so many people, nominally in the name of the 'Valshus' dynasty, but in fact she wanted to attack them!
She actually wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to seize Agamemnon's power? Wasn't she afraid that Huangquan No. 8 and the state religion would jointly put pressure on her afterwards?

"Lucien, you are so brave!"

Kurs, who was infected by the Genestealer, immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He really had a dirty background, so he immediately jumped out and tried to suppress the Governor with "rules".

"Everyone, she clearly wants to put the blame for the assassination of 'Valxus' on us!" He shouted excitedly, which immediately attracted the approval of many nobles, who glared at the governor: "Luciennie, although you are the planetary governor, Vigilance cannot let you do whatever you want!"

"That's right, Lady Lucy Ennie. Don't try to shift the blame onto us. You said there are heretics among us. Where is your evidence?"

"That's right. If you can't produce evidence, we will unite today and demand an explanation from Agamemnon!"

Even those old nobles who had remained silent could no longer sit still at this moment. If they allowed Lucyennie to distort right and wrong, they would probably end up in trouble.

"Luciennie, you said there is a heretic among us. You have to produce evidence, right?" The representative of the old nobles, an old man with a gray beard, spoke louder than the others. He looked at the governor with a slightly coercive look: "The assassination of the heir of Valshus was indeed your dereliction of duty. In my opinion... Only if you take responsibility for this crime can the safety of Alert Planet be guaranteed!"

With just a few words, Lucienie and the Agamemnon family were made responsible for the assassination.

As old-line aristocrats, they naturally have the confidence.

But unfortunately, this time... they were the ones who took the initiative to run into the gun. Lucyennie was just worrying about how to teach these old guys a lesson, but they just jumped in on their own!

Sir Alvin's 'Hongmen Banquet' is really useful!
"evidence?"

Lucy Ennie sat on the chair, looking at the faces of those people. She was not panicked at all, and even wanted to laugh. She said in a cold voice, "Okay, don't you want evidence? I'll give you evidence!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fully armed Astra Militarum soldiers broke down the door of the banquet hall and filed in.

This scene instantly pushed the situation into a more tense atmosphere. All the nobles were stunned. They never expected that Lucyennie would not follow the routine!

We are all nobles, why don't you follow the rules? !

"Lucyne, what are you going to do?!" The instigator Kurs was horrified. They didn't expect that Lucyne had ambushed an army!
"Strip him."

Lucyanne pointed, her eyes filled with murderous intent: "Show them... the evidence!"

"No, you can't do this to me!"

Kurth was obviously panicking. Maybe the others were stupid, but he was a real "heretic". If he were stripped of his clothes, his skin infected by the Genestealer would be exposed instantly. By then, even if he had ten thousand mouths, he would not be able to clear his suspicion!
"Luciennie, what are you going to do?!"

The old noble was shocked and glared at her: "Without the order of the empire, you executed a noble without authorization. This is a serious crime. Think about the consequences!"

"as a result of?"

Lucienne sneered and glared at the Astra Militarum: "What are you waiting for? Take off his clothes and show the evidence to the loyal subjects of the Empire!"

"No, don't come here!"

Kurth was truly desperate. He looked to other nobles, hoping that they could unite to put pressure on the governor.

However, just as a few nobles were about to speak, they were hit on the forehead with the butt of a rifle. The old noble, who was full of vigor just now, was kicked by the Star Army and lay on the ground twitching.

Facts have proved that no matter how cunning the nobles' mouths are, they can never be harder than the butts of guns. After a few blows from the butts of guns, the nobles can only groan and fall to the ground pretending to be dead.

What noble colleagues?
It's all bullshit, three rifle butts will destroy your camaraderie!
Under the violent suppression of the Astra Militarum, Kurth was dragged to the hall screaming, and then his clothes were stripped off layer by layer as if in humiliation. Because he resisted a few times, he was beaten and kicked by the Astra Militarum soldiers with resentment. The butt of the gun was swung and hit on the face, and immediately snot and blood spurted out of his nose, looking extremely miserable.

"Luciennie, let's see how you end up!" The beaten old noble roared angrily: "I will complain to the Empire! I will complain to the High Lord, you...you...you..."

After saying the word "you" three times, he was speechless.

Because, when Kurs was stripped of his clothes, he revealed his purple skin that had been hidden for a long time, as well as the third tentacle under his armpit, which immediately left the old nobles speechless.

"Did you see clearly? You all say that you are loyal to the Empire, but why do I feel... that it is not the case?" Lucyenne put one hand on her face and looked at the nobles below with a sneer, staring at them in amazement as if their throats were being strangled: "You see, the power of the aliens has infiltrated into our midst, and the Vigilance Planet has rotted..."

She turned her gaze to the old nobleman and sneered, "You have seen the evidence. Is there anything else you want to say?"

The nobles who were obviously infected and mutated were like a blockbuster bomb that exploded in the hearts of the remaining nobles, shocking everyone into shutting their mouths.

"me……"

The old nobleman suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, his forehead was covered with sweat, he didn't expect... there really is a heresy!

"Uncle Mars, I remember... you were going to complain to the Empire just now?" Lucy's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm, and she said lightly: "You defended heresy... How should I say this?"

"No, you heard wrong, respected Lady Lucyennie." The old noble Mars immediately lowered his head, his forehead covered with cold sweat: "It's... I'm too old, I was deceived by heretics, and dared to question your decision. This... please forgive me!"

Lucyenni glanced at the Celestial Army soldiers below, who were asking for their opinions, and said calmly, "Since they are heretics, there is no need to bother. Just execute them here."

boom!
With a gunshot, Coors ended his life.

But the sound of the gunshot was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the other nobles, and everyone was terrified for a moment.

Looking at the horrified nobles, Lucyenne felt she had never felt so happy before. The corners of her lips curved into an arc: "Now, is there anyone who still doubts my decision?"

evidence?

It's so funny! Corruption requires evidence, but suppressing a rebellion does not require evidence, only longitude and latitude are needed!

The hall was silent.

No one dared to question her anymore. The corpse of the heretic was clear evidence!
"Very good, since no one questions it..."

Lucienne showed a cruel smile, as if she was looking at a group of lambs to be slaughtered: "Then it's my turn! He-Man, Miller, Carell, Horseman... All of the above are heretics!"

A long list of names came out of Luciennie's mouth like the call of the devil. The last four words were like thunder, causing a rolling aftermath!
"No! No! You are slandering me!!!"

"I have shed blood for the Empire! I have served the Empire!"

"No, Lucy, you are slandering me. I am loyal to His Majesty. Please save me!"

But unfortunately, the Star Army had long been fed up with these nobles. They rushed forward with grim smiles on their faces and dragged out all the nobles whose names were called out from the crowd.

"It's too noisy, tell them to be quiet."

Lucy's eyes were cold, revealing a hint of disgust.

bang bang bang...

For a moment, every punch hit the flesh!
Silenced screams echoed in the magnificent hall. The remaining nobles were trembling in fear as they watched the nobles being beaten to death by the Star Army.

What unity? What pressure?
At this moment, all they could think about was not letting anyone shout at them, and their thighs couldn't stop trembling.

What can they do?
Even if the case is brought to the Empire, with so much evidence, the judge will give Lucyennie a thumbs up and praise her for a job well done. She might even be awarded a medal!

The old noble Mars closed his eyes in pain.

He has foreseen the ending. Today... will be a bloody day, and the situation on the entire Alert Planet will be completely overturned!

But he didn't understand, who... had instructed Agamemnon? Based on his understanding of Agamemnon, he would never have done such a thing without the guidance of the 'demon'!
Cool!
So cool!
Lucyennie, sitting on the chair, looked at the trembling nobles who were kneeling on the ground with weak knees, and felt an unprecedented joy, as if her whole body and mind were sublimated!
"Tell Venidal that all the families named today must be completely wiped out before sunset. I don't want to hear any related names after sunset!"

……

Vinidal covered his face with his hands. He had never thought that one day he would vomit after ransacking houses.

Looking at the list, there are at least more than a hundred names. How long will it take to copy them one by one?

Don’t even mention the sunset, next month will be difficult!

So, he got completely furious and grabbed the phone and roared, "Bring the 35th Regiment, the 47th Armored Regiment, and the 103rd Infantry Regiment to me. No need for any survivors, just bombard them with heavy artillery!!!"
