Warhammer: Empire Reboot

In a sense, this is closer to the supreme heaven that the ancient sages faced tens of millions of years ago.

The emperor suddenly sighed, "After fighting for so many years, they're all suddenly dead. It's a bit hard to get used to."

Lawson glanced at him: "Who told you they were all dead?"

"What do you mean?"

Lawson clapped his hands.

"come out."

The first person to emerge was a woman.

Her long black hair cascaded down to her waist, she was tall and slender, and wore a well-tailored dark purple dress. She swayed with every step, exuding charm and allure.

She approached Lawson and gave him a smiling bow.

"Owner."

The emperor's eye twitched.

Slaanesh?

The second person came out.

The man was tall and slender, wearing a dark blue clerk's uniform, and even had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses perched on his nose.

Holding a stack of documents, with a gentle expression, he looked like a senior secretary who was most favored by the leader in some administrative department.

He adjusted his glasses: "Your Majesty, it's been a long time."

The emperor's face darkened.

"Jianqi?"

"Strictly speaking, he was formerly known as Tzeentch."

The third one is much easier to recognize.

He was five meters tall, had red skin, and shoulders as broad as a wall.

His muscles were so strong they almost burst his black military uniform, and he only had a heavy Imperial-issue sword hanging at his waist.

The last one to come out was actually the most ordinary.

He was a plump old man with a round and fat figure, wearing a loose dark green robe, with a kind and amiable smile on his face, and clutching a "Report on the Improvement of Soil Humus and Microbial Cycles in the Whole Region" that had just been urgently submitted by the Ministry of Agriculture.

The four people stood neatly behind Lawson.

The Emperor turned to Lawson: "What... exactly did you do?"

Lawson smiled.

"Before stripping away the divine essence, I casually left something behind."

The divine essence of the Four Gods is, of course, dead.

But in the final stage, Lawson extracted very small portions of their consciousness.

He then used his life to forge a new form of sovereignty over reality, creating bodies for the four consciousnesses that could exist in the real universe for a long time.

Only the selected remnants of divinity, along with valuable character traits, knowledge, and experience, are retained.

More importantly, all four bodies, from their cells to their soul anchors, were created by Lawson. If he wanted, he could make all four disappear with a single thought.

Khorne became a war general.

Stripped of its endless killing impulses, this guy's tens of millions of years of accumulated war experience is actually extremely valuable.

Nuguri was then reassigned to the agricultural and ecological engineering department.

The authority over disease has been stripped away, but all the knowledge about life cycles, microorganisms, humus, and ecological balance has been left behind.

The result was surprisingly good!

Tzeentch is suited to be an advisor, clerk, strategist, and policy loophole checker; of course, he should never be the one to make the final decision.

As for Slaanesh…the Grand Steward of the Inner Court.

The emperor's expression was strange: "Aren't you afraid of something going wrong?"

Upon hearing this, the woman in the purple dress immediately covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes sparkling as she retorted sweetly, "Your Majesty, your words are quite hurtful. I am now the most law-abiding public official in the entire empire. You are showing historical prejudice against my professional conduct."

The emperor turned his gaze away expressionlessly, not even bothering to look at her.

Lawson leaned back in his chair and casually added:

"Don't worry, the highest approval authority she has each day is to decide which set of gold and silver tableware to place on the long table half an hour before the banquet begins."

Slaanesh's fawning smile froze instantly.

A low, muffled laugh came from the chest of the five-meter-tall red-skinned officer next to him.

"Ah……"

Slaanesh suddenly turned his head, his phoenix eyes filled with murderous intent, and glared fiercely at the red-skinned giant beside him: "What right do you, a big-headed soldier who spends every day in the mud leading new recruits in armed cross-country drills, have to laugh at this commander?"

The red-skinned officer's face darkened, and he glared back with his large, bell-like eyes.

The secretary with gold-rimmed glasses beside him flipped through the files without changing her expression, muttering to herself as she calculated the expenses.

The plump old man, holding the soil report, chuckled and tried to smooth things over between the two, urging them to drink more hot water!

The emperor, watching this scene, suddenly found it absurd.

……

The darkness has passed, and the stars have returned to their places.

A new era belonging to this galaxy begins.

Even after the Ninth Life Leap ended, the gears of the human empire did not stop turning.

The entire Milky Way galaxy now appears somewhat crowded in the face of the empire's current size.

A new expedition, larger in scale than the first Great Crusade, has begun at the edge of the stars.

This time, the direction of the Great Expedition is no longer beyond the solar system, nor is it a certain arm of the Milky Way.

Rather, it is beyond the Milky Way.

The Emperor resumed his most familiar work, serving as the Supreme Commander.

He was in charge of the entire imperial expeditionary force.

Guilliman was in charge of logistics, administration, and integration of the newly occupied territories.

Leon led the high-speed strategic legion to undertake assault and decapitation missions.

Khorne, who had once served as a member of the Khorne, was also thrown into the Supreme Command of the Expeditionary Force by Lawson.

Nagou then went to the ecological engineering department.

Every time a new star system is conquered, as long as a habitable world suitable for long-term development is discovered, his ecological engineering department will arrive with the fleet.

The toxic atmosphere was readjusted, the dead ocean resumed its cycle, and a microbial layer was laid on the barren continent.

Worlds unsuitable for human habitation were remodeled according to the life needs of the Fearless, the Tau, the Wotan, and other Imperial races.

The Nurgle, once a symbol of decay and plague, began to study soil, fungi, food chains, and food yields every day.

The expeditionary fleet itself was also completely different from the first great expedition.

The Burning Star and Zhenyue-class are no longer the most advanced warships in the Empire.

After hundreds of years of iteration, the new generation of capital ships has incorporated a large amount of Astral physics technology, Ancient space engineering, Necromantic dimensional technology, the Golden Age STC, the Wotan industrial system, and the Empire's own research results.

The design criteria for fleets are no longer simply about being able to traverse star systems.

A true strategic fleet is itself a mobile industrial zone, a colonial base, and a war fortress.

Behind them lies the entire Milky Way galaxy.

Millions of worlds within the galaxy served as an inexhaustible logistical base for the expeditionary force.

As for the Tyranid swarm, which was once thought to be able to devour the entire galaxy, it has also come to an end.

The main Zerg swarms were gradually wiped out during the Empire's centuries-long campaign against them.

A large number of Norn queens and bio-ship samples were added to the Imperial database, and the Terran genetic treasure trove became nourishment for the Imperial biotechnology upgrade.

Only a small number of remaining swarms escaped into the depths of space.

The empire did not rush to pursue.

Because the expeditionary force will soon catch up with them.

The expeditionary fleet continued to traverse the darkness beyond the galaxy.

A new dwarf galaxy has been discovered.

A new civilization was discovered.

A new war broke out, and then ended.

Some civilizations chose to join.

Some establish subordinate relationships.

Some remained hostile and were eventually wiped off the strategic map by the Imperial fleet.

With each step forward, network nodes, colonies, industrial bases, and military fortresses are established behind them.

……

A thousand years later.

The cosmic territory controlled and influenced by the human empire has exceeded the scale of the Milky Way itself by a hundred times.

The Milky Way, on the contrary, became one of the oldest and safest core regions of the entire empire.

Even in the increasingly distant starry sky, that ancient double-headed eagle banner can be seen.

Standing on the observation platform of the expeditionary flagship, the emperor would sometimes think back to 30,000 years ago.

At that time, humanity had just emerged from the long night.

A fleet set sail from Terra.
