Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 141 Playing with the Gods?

The alien insects began to reproduce in the bottom nest. Gao Yi left a part of the fleet stationed at Wandering Port and took the rest of the warships and soldiers towards Wandering Port.

Within the Rogue Traders Alliance, the Rogue Traders were also extremely angry about the Governor of Malfi declaring them heretics.

Their first reaction was to file a complaint with the empire, but no one expected Gao Yi to directly lead the fleet to Malfi and deal with the matter with force.

This is not about attacking and occupying a planet, but a head-on confrontation with the capital of a sub-star region.

The wandering merchants present here have survived in the expansion area for many years and are considered brave, but they have never thought that they would do such a thing one day.

But looking at the huge fleet they had assembled gave them courage.

And the army armed to the teeth gave them confidence.

The wandering merchants present knew that they had not betrayed the God-Emperor or the Empire at all.

Even at this time they were glad that they had joined forces with the Monget Dynasty and other wandering merchants.

Just as Gao Yi once told them, if they responded to the empire's orders and returned to the empire, they might encounter difficulties from others.

They are not those noble imperial blood merchants. In the eyes of many people in the empire, these wandering merchants may just be pirates.

Few people can understand their pioneering and adventurous spirit.

They even use some insidious means to forcibly plunder and seize their wealth.

In their eyes, the Governor of Malfi was just abusing her power at will. These alliance members did not know that Gao Yi was being watched by the Four Gods.

Any single dynasty would have been powerless and furious in the face of such a situation, but now their alliance had the strength to fight against such conspiracy.

Wasn't the purpose of forming the alliance to prevent this from happening? Not to mention they now had a powerful leader.

Gao Yi himself did not expect that the reaction of these alliance members would be so enthusiastic.

It turns out that a common crisis is the fastest way to bring people together.

Each dynasty has begun its own mobilization, but the most important thing is interests. Once the war with Malfi is won, everyone will gain wealth that was once unimaginable. This is the capital of a sub-star zone!

At this time in Malfi, Glades was waiting more and more anxiously for his servant to send him the good news.

However, the team of only dozens of people was hiding and causing destruction everywhere in the upper nest, and the encirclement and suppression by the army of tens of thousands of people did not make any progress.

Unless weapons of mass destruction are used, the cost of doing so is too high.

In order to achieve his goal faster, Glades even began to directly open the elevators to the upper and lower nests.

Allowing countless blood hunters to enter the upper nest that was once out of their reach.

His private soldiers might be more powerful in combat, but these low-level scum were better at tracking prey.

Among these blood hunters, there are also a large number of hunters she has kept in captivity.

Among them were even some cults that she secretly supported.

Bizarre and incomprehensible Chaos Witchcraft often brings unexpected effects.

However, her behavior also caused dissatisfaction among many nobles.

After all, cult lunatics are sometimes uncontrollable, and no one knows what crazy things they might do.

These great nobles even believed that this was a conspiracy of Glades, that capturing those so-called Rogue Merchants Dynasty was a lie, and that using these scum to destroy or even attack and weaken them was the real thing.

Glades didn't explain. As long as she could capture Damon and his group, her goal would be achieved.

By then, she could obtain the secrets from these people that even the gods wanted to obtain, and Malfi might have the opportunity to be completely dominated by her, allowing Malfi to operate completely in accordance with her will.

Under Glades' instructions, even PDF and law enforcers turned a blind eye to the atrocities committed by these blood hunters. They dared not enter the palaces of the nobles, but they could not stop the residences of ordinary rich people.

They broke open the gate and began searching the mansion.

"It seems the Governor here has gone to great lengths to capture Lord Damon. But can these men really capture the Night Sentinels?"

"These are not things we need to worry about. Remember our mission: sneak into the Governor's Palace and find an opportunity to kill her!"

"Do not worry!"

"Assign two people. Ainan, you and Davey will monitor the whereabouts of these blood hunters and provide intelligence to Lord Damon. The rest of you will follow me to complete the assassination mission."

After placing the insect eggs in the bottom nest, Norris and his group also came here and entered the upper nest together with the large number of blood hunters pouring into the lower nest. The open passage saved Norris and others a lot of effort.

The Governor's palace is not difficult to find. The most magnificent building in the hive is his residence. The difficult part is how to get in, but stealth is what the ghosts are good at.

The Governor's Palace, where a large number of private soldiers were sent out, was at its weakest defense at this time.

The ghosts used psychic invisibility to pass through one checkpoint after another, and from time to time used phase shift to ignore the terrain and advance quickly.

Glades didn't know that a team of assassins had bypassed the heavy defenses and entered her palace.

As her anxiety grew, she became more and more irritable.

The evil god's whispers continued to echo in her mind, driving her to complete depravity.

However, her strong will allowed her to maintain the last bit of consciousness.

It is hard to imagine how a man who has made so many deals with Chaos, and even has his own private soldiers strengthened by the evil magic of the Warp, would refuse a gift that other Chaos believers would not even beg for.

"Governor, the power of mortals is ultimately limited. Those people are far more powerful than you imagine. Can you really capture them with just your private soldiers? You've seen that there has been no result so far, and your private soldiers have suffered heavy losses.

Your actions are enough to make the so-called Empire in your heart label you a traitor, so why bother holding on to that last line? Since you've already opened the passage from the Middle Nest to the Upper Nest, allowing those people to enter, why not simply open the gates of the Lower Nest and accept the blessing of the Lord of Change?

He will give you endless knowledge.

His followers will find those people for you, and then you can transform Malfi according to your own ideas and make it look like your dreams."

An aide who had been standing beside Glades leaned over and whispered in his ear.

Glades remained silent. Frank, a powerful psychic beside her, helped her a lot. Her development to where she is today was inseparable from his help. She knew that he believed in chaos, but she still chose to use him.

How could this group of guys hold out for so long without any logistics? Her soldiers had witnessed those combat uniforms being broken in several battles, but when they were found again not long after, they were intact again.

Glades doesn't believe they can keep going!
"This is my world. I don't need you to teach me what to do! Franky! The other Inquisitor is also a powerful psychic. His divination spells have been predicting the actions of my soldiers. Use your psychic power to fight him! I know you also have the ability of prophecy. Predict the other party's actions for me!"

But after listening to Glades' words, Franky remained unmoved.

Looking at Franky who was silent on the side, Glades suddenly stood up, and a power that was not human was manifested in his body, allowing him to directly strangle the neck of Franky, the Tzeentch wizard.

"Ahem. The power of the Prince of Pleasure? You have no idea what you're doing, Glades. How can a mortal man manipulate the might of the gods?
Do you think you can gain the power of gods at no cost?
You are only a mortal after all! You cannot please all the gods at once, and if you anger any one of them, they can devour your soul at any time.

But since you need it, I can help you, but I still have to remind you, my Governor, Malfi's drama is like a child's play in front of them."

"I don't need you to teach me. This is just a deal. Franky, do your job well, or I can kill you right now!"

Following Glades's threat, all the guards belonging to her family gathered around and pointed their weapons at Franky.
