Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 442 Who is loyal to the Emperor and who is a traitor? The merits of the state religion
Thirty thousand years ago, humans had no science and technology. It was a completely cold weapon era, and people didn’t even have a decent power sword!
When the Void Dragon came out, he and another group of Immortal companions teamed up to defeat it, and then sealed it on Mars.

But to be honest, the Void Dragon at that time was not as huge in size as it is now, nor did it have such terrifying power. It just appeared and all the mechanical creatures on Mars stopped working.

About 90 years ago, 912 41k.

The Void Dragon once unconsciously escaped from the Hypercube Labyrinth and attacked the army of the Sotec Necron Dynasty, resulting in the complete destruction of dozens of Tomb Worlds.

It was then sealed back into the maze, but compared to that time, this time the Void Dragon fragments were completely released.

"Let's get started! We'll move it to other areas." Rhodes said.

Rhodes has asked Tartarus to select a more suitable galaxy, which is about 600 light-years away from Holy Terra and is home to a super red giant star.

"Perhaps we should observe and see whether the members of the Martian Mechanicus are willing to submit to this so-called God of Machines." Guilliman said.

The Martian Mechanicus appeared ten thousand years ago and served humanity for a full ten thousand years. Although during the great rebellion, another part of the Martian Mechanicus members defected to Chaos and Horus.

But most members of the Martian Mechanicus are still loyal to the Empire and the Emperor, especially some grassroots mortal forces and a large number of technical priests.

"Rod, you get ready and be prepared to move at any time. I need to confirm which members of the Mechanicus have completely surrendered to the Void Dragon. These people must be eliminated." said the Emperor.

Because of Rhodes, all the Primarchs were fused with cosmic beasts, and their mental abilities reached the level of lesser gods. Even if they were just standing in the palace of Holy Terra, they could observe everything that happened on Mars from a distance.

Rhodes nodded when he heard this, and continued to observe the situation on Mars with the Emperor and another Primarch.

Most of the Mechanicus's technical priests, mechanical sages, and great sages have already knelt before the God of Machines.

This is the moment they have been dreaming of. All members of the Martian Mechanicus regard Ohm Messiah, the God of All Machines, as the object of their faith.

Although they have some respect for the Emperor of Mankind, they mostly regard the Emperor as the incarnation of the Omnissiah, or a messenger of some kind.

Ohm Messiah, the God of All Things, is also the only god in the entire human galactic empire who is officially recognized as existing.

When the true God whom they had worshipped for tens of thousands of years finally showed up, all members of the Martian Mechanicus were extremely excited.

But there are also a small number of people who are entangled in it, because some people remember the incident that happened about 90 years ago, when the Necrons invaded the solar system.

We also learned about the existence of the Void Dragon and knew that in the Earth year of 2K, a golden-armored knight suspected to be the Emperor sealed the Void Dragon inside Mars.

Since then, some Inquisitors and Grand Magos of the Mechanicum of Mars have begun research, and came to a surprising conclusion: the Om Messiah, the God of Vange they worship, is likely to be this Void Dragon.

Some scientific knowledge and magical machine souls that the other party unconsciously released have created the current Mechanicus.

But the question is, when the great Void Dragon, the true entity of the God of All Things whom they worship, appears on Mars, what choice will they make?
"My servants! I now give you my first order.

All human beings, from now on, can only worship me, the God of All Things, Om Messiah, and there is no other faith." After the Void Dragon escaped, he issued his first order.

He was sealed for a full 1 years. He lived in a dull and rigid state for the first years, until humans began to colonize Mars.

Some of the scientific inspiration he emitted unconsciously was absorbed by these weak humans, and then these humans began to worship him and began to mechanize their bodies.

And he developed something called Machine Soul. All Machine Soul awakening ceremonies must praise Ohmmisai and the Void Dragon!
If he were still in his heyday, if he were still intact, he could control all the machine souls, and all technological creations in the universe would be under his jurisdiction.

The human race is a very peculiar one. Their potential is not much less than that of the Necrontyr who betrayed them, and they are also a short-lived race.

The same trick can be used on Necrons as well as humans. Moreover, these believers who worship themselves have transformed more than 90% of their bodies into mechanical creations.

So since so much has been transformed, we don’t care about the remaining few percent.

"Great God of All Machines, are you the incarnation of the Emperor?" a technical priest asked boldly.

Unlike those great sages and wise men, only 50% of his body has been mechanized, because he is still young and his flesh can still survive.

As soon as these words were spoken, the Martian Mechanicians who were originally singing praises to Ohm Messiah, the God of All Machines, were stunned.

That's right! The God of All Things Omnissiah appeared here, so what is the Emperor? "The Human Emperor is not my incarnation at all, nor is he my messenger. He even stole my faith. You humans could have become better!
You can become complete metal life forms, you can gain eternal life, you can follow me to dominate the universe, and you will be my most loyal servants. "The Void Dragon said.

The Emperor of Mankind has a great grudge against him, but now is not the time for revenge. He has more important things to do now, which is to conquer the entire Martian Mechanicus.

As long as we get the Mechanicus of Mars, all the industrial power of the human empire will be under our control.

"Evil alien, lies!" an angry curse rang out.

A combat nun who was over 2 meters tall picked up the bolt rifle in her hand and started firing directly at the huge void dragon in front of her. Although her attack seemed to hit the void dragon with great force, the combat nun was the first to open fire.

In addition to these, the Mechanicus of Mars also has members of the Skitarii, as well as a large number of Space Marines and Battle Sisters, who are all technical sergeants who come here for further training.

The Oilers can be controlled by the God of Machines, but these Battle Sisters and Space Marines cannot, especially after becoming the genetic offspring of the Daughters of the God-Emperor.

The faith of all battle sisters in the Emperor has become even stronger. It used to be fanatical worship, but now it is super fanatical worship.

"You are a void dragon, you are a fragment of a C'tan, and everything you said is a lie. You want to transform us humans into Necrons, but you won't succeed with that ghost look on your face."

Some Space Marines who came to the Mars Mechanicus for further training also jumped out. These people were originally technical sergeants sent by various chapters for further training.

After completing further training at the Martian Mechanicus, he will return to his own regiment in the future and take on the important task of repairing and manufacturing weapons and equipment.

Although the chapter has now been abolished, they are still training within the Martian Mechanicus. After completing their training, they will return to the legion and be assigned by the legion.

As the Space Marines and Sisters of Battle present launched their attacks, the Skitarii members also attacked them.

"Are you planning to betray the Empire?" asked a Space Marine.

"We are loyal to Om Messiah, the God of All Things." This is what some members of the Crusade said.

"No, we are loyal to the Emperor! But our bodies are out of control." But some members of the Crusaders who still retained human consciousness also roared.

Although they worship Om Messiah, due to the existence of the state religion, except for some high-ranking members of the Mechanicus, most people at the bottom even believe in the Emperor.

Those Mechanicus Crusaders and Tech-Priests who were still loyal to the Emperor also launched their own resistance, even including several Archmagos.

"You vile xenos! How dare you control the Emperor's warriors.

Warriors, stand firm in your faith and use the power of the Emperor to break free from his control." Some battle sisters began to encourage the controlled Skitarii personnel.

"The great God Emperor bless us."

"Be firm in your faith and be loyal!"

Sometimes fanatics are really good, and battle sisters can really work miracles.

A burst of golden light lit up, and some of the Crusaders who were controlled by the Void Dragon broke free and stood on the side of the Battle Sisters and Space Marines again.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle, and the Martian Mechanicus was divided into two factions, one loyal to the Emperor and the other loyal to the God of Machines.

"It seems that the state religion is not so useless. What Luo Jia wrote is still quite useful ten thousand years later." Rhodes said.

Isn't it true? The holy scriptures held by the state religion now were all written by their traitorous forefather, who really worshipped the emperor as a god at that time?
Although it was the slowest to conquer, the Imperial world conquered by Lorgar and his Word Bearers was the most perfect. It was basically impossible for betrayal to occur because he would use religion to thoroughly control the human beings on the entire planet.

Until that day when the Perfect City was destroyed by the Emperor himself, causing Lorgar's faith to collapse directly, and then he completely surrendered to Chaos, but he did not surrender to the Four Evil Gods of Chaos, but became a Demon Prince without any share of Chaos.

However, Rhodes' words made the Primarchs in front of him look very unhappy. In the eyes of all the Primarchs.

Lorgar is the most hateful one besides Horus, because he is the first Primarch to betray the Emperor in the true sense, and he is also the culprit who corrupted Horus and the real culprit of the Heresy.
