Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 160: The True Purpose of the Golden Throne, Commander Trajan

"One last question. How do you plan to get your servants to absorb my dark energy? I can't command the Imperial Guards now." The Emperor asked.

"Can I just let my servant in disguised as a human?"

“It’s fine for you and your scientist to come in, but I’m afraid it’s not possible for others to pass the genetic test.

But when absorbing the power of darkness, the noise will be very loud, and it is impossible not to attract the attention of the imperial guards." The emperor said.

When it absorbs his own dark energy, there will definitely be a huge commotion. The Imperial Guards will not stand idly by and will launch an attack immediately.

"How about I just tell you that I am your chosen one? Or I can communicate with the Guards through my mind," Rhodes conveyed the message to the Emperor through his mind.

"No! You think too much. The Imperial Guards will only obey my orders.

I have selected the chosen ones before, but have you ever seen the Imperial Guards care about their lives? "The Emperor was a little helpless.

He had also chosen the Chosen One before.

They wanted to convey their will, but as a result, all of these chosen people were murdered by the empire's high-ranking officials for various reasons.

If he could convey his ideas to his people, he would have done so long ago. He also tried to save the empire, but failed in the end.

The Imperial Guards are the Emperor's personal guards. They will only obey his orders. The Chosen Ones have only received the Emperor's blessing and are not qualified to command the Imperial Guards.

This is also his helplessness as an emperor. He is obviously the supreme ruler of the human empire and the Lord of mankind, but he cannot command his subordinates.

"Are you Rhodes?" A voice suddenly interrupted Rhodes' thoughts, and a royal guard wearing gorgeous golden armor and about 3 meters tall walked in.

This man's armor was completely different from that of other imperial guards. It looked wider, more majestic and gorgeous. The shield guard captain just stood beside this man with a respectful look on his face.

Rhodes nodded. It seemed that this person was not an ordinary imperial guard!
"Marshal Trajan, why are you here?

We are just doing routine maintenance on the machines, there is no need to bother you to come over." The three high lords of the empire immediately came to Rhodes nervously and began to talk to the commander of the imperial guards, Trajan.

"I'm not here for you. You continue to test the Golden Throne! Come with me." Trajan said lightly and looked at Rhodes again.

"Trajan, he is my seventeenth Marshal of the Imperial Guards. After Androslander was killed in the battle with the Black Chai, he inherited the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Guards." The emperor also introduced the identity of the visitor to Rhodes.

Things are a bit bad, I hope this kid can handle it.

"Captain Trajan, this man is just a young apprentice.

If you have anything to say, just tell him. There is no need to call him away alone. "The three high lords were so nervous at this time.

What's going on? Is this kid's genes so good? He even recruited the commander of the Imperial Guards!
"You three are very strange. Normally, if we need to repair the Golden Throne, we only need the Mechanicus's sages and technical priests to come here!
But you only brought a technical priest and two apprentices this time, and the three of you also came here in person." Trajan looked down at the three high lords and spoke.

"You are joking, Lord Trajan. It is just a routine maintenance. Besides, these two apprentices are very talented, so I brought them here."

"Yes! Lord Trajan, do you doubt our High Lord?"

“If it weren’t for the fact that they are both human, if it weren’t for the fact that one of them has very high genetic purity.

They are both dead now, tell me where they came from?" Trajan's voice became serious.

At this moment the three high lords were no longer as calm as before. The commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards was a high lord of Terra, just like them.

Moreover, the other party is the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards. In this palace, no one has more power than him.

"I have roughly figured out the condition of this machine. I can repair it, but I need some special materials." At this time, Helotia also completed all inspections of the Golden Throne, clapped her hands and spoke.

This is not a machine that can be created by humans at all. Some of the materials on it are even similar to those of the Eldar, but it is more advanced than those of the Eldar.

"She can repair the Golden Throne! You'd better explain what's going on." asked Trajan, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards.

Dozens of guardsmen from the surrounding area had already surrounded them, picked up their weapons and surrounded the three high lords and Rhodes and his party.

"I'm sorry to have hidden something from you, Commander Trajan. These two are not from the Martian Mechanicus, but are from somewhere else.

This lady is a top scientist and that Mr. Rhodes is his bodyguard.

They were invited to come and repair the Golden Throne, and you should know the condition of the Golden Throne. "The wandering merchant Kania stood up and said.

"This is already an act of betrayal! I can execute all of you right now."

"But what happens after you execute us, Marshal?

Will you continue to let the Golden Throne be damaged like this? Then we humans will face the end. This is how you show your loyalty to the Emperor." The Rogue Trader Kania asked loudly. "This machine is very complicated! You have completely misunderstood its purpose.

But I can repair it and restore its performance, or even further enhance it." Helotia said.

"How do you plan to repair the Golden Throne?" Trajan ignored the old merchant Kania and the three high lords, and came to Helodia.

Helotia smiled very confidently, and then began to talk about how she was going to repair the Golden Throne.

"First, I have to remove all the parts installed by the Mechanicus and replace them with new parts.

Not only will their parts not make the Golden Throne function better, but will become a burden to the Golden Throne. This machine has existed for tens of millions of years.

If it was going to break, it would have broken long ago. The reason it is in this state now is entirely because of the idiots from the Mechanicus who repaired it in a mess." Helotia said.

"Have you figured out anything? Do you think this machine was not made by us humans?" The commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards, Trajan, turned to look at Helotia and asked.

As the imperial guards, they naturally guard some secrets. They naturally know how the Golden Throne came about and its true purpose.

It is an ancient machine discovered by the Emperor in a desert area in Asia. It is not something made by humans at all.

Rather, it came from an ancient machine 6000 million years ago, from the creators of the Eldar, the Old Ones.

“Humans were not qualified to make it 6000 million years ago.

Moreover, it is a device used for road construction, and should be used to dig some special extra-dimensional passage.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be a device used to dig a webway, but it's a pity that only a part of it is left." Helotia said.

"You really surprised me! You are right. The real use of this machine is to dig a network.

Only the Emperor and every commander of the Imperial Guards know this, but you can actually see it. Can you really repair it? " Trajan's tone was obviously a little excited.

For so many years, the only ones who knew this secret were the Emperor himself, the former Prime Minister Malcador, and their successive commanders of the Imperial Guards.

The real function of the Golden Throne is to be a device for digging the Webway. It is a machine created by the Ancient Saints to dig the Webway.

As a device for digging webways, it can naturally block webways or tear them apart.

When the Emperor obtained this machine, he added some equipment to it so that it could be connected to the Astronomican and project a huge Astronomican.

Helotia nodded confidently and gave the commander of the imperial guards a definite answer.

"Commander! Do we all have to erase our memories?" asked the captain of the Imperial Guard's shield guard.

This secret is only known to the Emperor and the Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Guards, so the other Imperial Guards cannot retain this memory.

Even for safety reasons, it would be possible for all of them to commit suicide collectively.

The commander of the Imperial Guards, Trajan, did not answer the captain of the Donwei, but looked at Helotia.

"How are you going to repair it? What materials or cooperation do you need?" Trajan asked.

Finally, someone truly understands how to use the Golden Throne, and finally someone who can repair the Golden Throne has been found. The most important thing is that the other person is a human being.

"Of course I have my own methods, and you should ask those three guys. I think it's time to announce our identities." Helotia said.

Anyway, she was not worried. If there was any danger, her master and she could use the teleportation bracelet to leave immediately. It all depended on whether these imperial guards were truly dedicated to the emperor.

“You seem to be hiding a lot of things from me, three high lords.

Tell me everything, my patience is almost gone. " Trajan came to the three high lords and asked.

"Okay! Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Guards, now we can only tell you the truth." The three high lords sighed helplessly.

He told them about the whole matter of how they ordered Grand Inquisitor Lacino and Rogue Trader Kania to go to the Dark Eldar's main city of Commorragh to find someone who could repair the Golden Throne.

The captain of the Imperial Guards' shield guards who had just been released looked extremely unhappy. He had actually been deceived by these guys.

“I understand, since you are doing this for the Empire and the Emperor.

And since I found someone who can really fix the Golden Throne, I will forgive you this time!" Trajan said.

He could temporarily forgive what these three high lords had done, as everything was done for the sake of repairing the Golden Throne and for the Emperor.
