Tauren Overlord

329. Thought and Suffering

The words of the Divine Emperor seemed... no, not seemed, they clearly had the magical power to manipulate people's hearts.

No matter what he said, at least to the imperial generals whose bodies had been branded, every word was an indisputable truth.

The Divine Emperor's mark has many effects, one of which is that it can allow sacrifices to replenish the generals' vitality at any time.

But the brand has another effect, which is to allow the God-Emperor to completely conquer their souls.

Under the influence of the brand, everything the Emperor declares is equal to an unchangeable fact:

“The following truths speak for themselves.”

"Everyone should follow justice and eliminate all those who are unjust."

"As generals of the empire, you should be cold-blooded angels, slaying the evil spirits in the world."

"It's as simple as 1+1=2, but what did you do?"

"You chose to stand on the side of evil. When you were most needed to practice justice, you chose to appease evil!"

"What does this mean?"

"This shows that you are no longer righteous people, but flowers of evil blooming on evil roots. Your thoughts are already filled with sin!"

"People like you who are so unforgivable will never deserve any mercy!"

"Even if I really have compassion, I would rather give it to cats and dogs than to you damned unjust people!"

"Even if I let you die immediately, it's only your sinful thoughts that killed you. How can you say that I killed you?"

"It is obvious that your own thoughts are worthy of your suffering. You have no right to complain about an end that matches your virtues!"

"I have never done anything malicious to you. All your deaths are just the proper operation of natural laws."

"If we really want to find someone to be held responsible, it should be the Tauren Lord who should bear full responsibility for your sacrifice. How can you blame me?"

Under the effect of the brand, every word of the Divine Emperor became the truth of the world.

They truly felt that people like them who deserved to die no longer deserved to live.

Even if I face death, it is all my own fault. How can I blame the Emperor of God for killing me?

In this way, they completely gave up their desire for life and even became convinced from the bottom of their hearts.

This resulted in none of these imperial generals attempting to escape, let alone defecting to the enemies of the Divine Emperor.

The generals have not only begun to reflect, but have even taken the initiative to ask questions:

"Your Majesty, we admit that we are the lowest and most damned filthy creatures in the world, but...how should we atone for our sins?"

At this point, the Divine Emperor was certain that he had destroyed any of the generals' thoughts of betrayal or escape.

Next, it is time to announce the generals' deaths:

"You also know that I can brand every Colonial Demon and Imperial Whip Hand."

“These marks are like my hands, eyes and ears, allowing me to see everything in the world.”

"But maintaining this mark also requires the support of spiritual energy, as well as sufficient flesh and blood, and even requires the sacrifice of a certain amount of life force."

"And what about you? Whether it's your flesh, blood, or fat, you all contain a large amount of spiritual energy, so you are naturally a good material for making a brand!"

"Since you have chosen to atone for your sins from the bottom of your heart, why don't you offer your flesh and blood?"

"Wouldn't this help the world move closer to the truth, and at the same time eliminate you evil beasts in the process of atonement?"

The Divine Emperor's words really touched the generals' hearts.

If they are against evil beasts but do not oppose themselves as evil beasts, can they still be truly repentant?

Of course, at this time, you have to sacrifice yourself so that the God-Emperor can directly control every colonial demon and imperial whipper.

The God-Emperor controlled the colonial demons, and also controlled the demon children they gave birth to, the fire monkey and the three-headed hound.

Controlling the Imperial Whiphandler also means controlling the magnetic horned demons under his command, as well as other sacrifices.

As for elites like the fierce demon, the Emperor of Gods had already branded them.

Therefore, until Selron received the order from the Emperor of God to launch an all-out attack, he did not dare to let the fierce demon consume too much energy.

Because once there is a major loss, the news cannot be concealed at all, and the Emperor of Gods can be the first to learn about the losses of the fierce demons.

These fierce demons are also like the eyes of the God-Emperor. Combined with the marks already on the generals, the God-Emperor can have an overall view of the situation at any time.

It was after a comprehensive and detailed observation of the battlefield that the Divine Emperor had made a decision - he was sure that he no longer needed a new Army Marshal.

It turned out that none of these generals was as reliable as Selron.

On the contrary, after careful observation, the God-Emperor clearly analyzed that the promotion of the Tauren Overlord was closely related to the devouring of high-psychic units.

Then why do we keep so many rank four generals?

Keep it to deliver food to the Tauren Overlord?

It would be better to let all those useless animals make use of their last bit of energy so that you can better fight against the Minotaur Overlord.

While deciding the fate of the general, the God-Emperor became increasingly curious about the mysterious minotaur.

Judging from the time scale of 300 years, the Tauren Overlord seems to be a new force that has suddenly emerged in recent months.

In just a few months, he grew to the point where he was able to kill Marshal Selron.

The God-Emperor even believed that the Minotaur's potential might surpass his own. This was the only person to whom the God-Emperor gave such an evaluation.

This magical opponent made the God-Emperor feel an unprecedented excitement, and his dormant desire for competition had been awakened.

What kept him awake was his infinite contempt for the inferior animals in his eyes:

"You can start atonement now."

Under the effect of the brand, the generals who had been completely convinced by the Divine Emperor found their own direct descendants one after another.

Then, they dug up their own flesh and skin, enduring great pain as they branded the God-Emperor.

Their remaining flesh and blood were also processed together. After all, it was not just them that the Divine Emperor wanted to brand.

While the empire's generals were dying in extreme pain, Lu Heng was busy teleporting the citizens of Cat-Eared Glade.

At first, he was just a refugee from another world summoned by a minotaur whose country was about to be destroyed.

All he wanted at the beginning was to survive and not be hunted by the empire as a beast of burden.

So he tried to make himself stronger, stronger, and stronger.

As his rank continued to rise, the supply of resources Lu Heng needed, including psychic resources and negative power, also increased accordingly.

This forms a cycle where one can only survive by becoming stronger, but to survive, one gradually forms a community of shared destiny with more civilians.

He is not fighting alone, but constantly draws strength from ordinary people.

Since he cannot survive alone, he naturally has to save more people so that everyone can have a future.

This cycle continues, and Lu Heng, who has been promoted to the fifth level, does not feel that he has any advantage over the Divine Emperor.

Although he had the vision of the landing point, he still could not find the figure of the Divine Emperor after searching repeatedly.

It was even difficult for him to determine what exactly this Imperial Divine Emperor was.

Is it a carbon-based organism? Or some other mysterious entity?

It is difficult for Lu Heng to get a definite answer at the moment.

He only knew that the Divine Emperor had become the Divine Emperor of the Empire 300 years ago and had led the Holy Blessing Empire to prosperity.

No one has ever seen the true form of the Divine Emperor, and even the fact that he is at the sixth level is just a commonly accepted speculation.

All information about the Divine Emperor seemed chaotic and bizarre.

Whether it is to find out the truth about the Divine Emperor or to try his best to protect himself before knowing the truth, Lu Heng must further improve himself.

Having just been promoted to rank five, he should prepare for promotion to rank six.

At present, Lu Heng has devoured Selron, who is also at the fifth level, and his progress towards the sixth level has increased to 25%.

If he devours the remaining three imperial marshals, Lu Heng will be able to be promoted to rank six, on par with the Divine Emperor himself.

But it is not easy to devour the other three imperial marshals.

For example, Admiral Augustus has been hiding in the water, but Lu Heng cannot open a portal directly in the sea. Obviously, he is also a more difficult enemy to deal with.

The other two marshals of the empire are said to be Fierce Demon and Succubus. The former is in charge of the personal soldiers of the God-Emperor, while the latter focuses on the conquest and governance of the Taimenia region.

330. Succubus General

Lu Heng had never had a face-to-face confrontation with the empire's succubus marshal, but he had also had some interactions with her.

He had discovered from Selron's memory that Succubus Marshal Greymori was not only in charge of the Taimenia region, but she was also responsible for many logistical issues of the empire.

For example, the Empire's Navy Marshal Augustus needs a large number of leaders to die for the Empire's people. Who will do this?

Of course, it was the Succubus Marshal Greymori who bewitched the human consumables in the Taimenia area for him to fill the vacancy.

The entire Imperial Army would not be commanded by Selron.

For example, the current garrison general of New Luna City is not a direct subordinate of Marshal Selron, but the succubus general under Greymori - Estarofia.

In Lu Heng's opinion, this might be a kind of check and balance of the Divine Emperor on Selron. He did not intend to let a marshal take care of everything.

Succubus Marshal Greymori also has many other roles, such as leading her succubus group and recruiting and managing the maids accompanying the army.

Or to put it further, the system of military maids of the Taimenian people was originally modeled after the succubus girls.

Throughout the long history of the Holy Blessing Empire, the imperial army has always enjoyed an important benefit.

That is, wherever their army goes, the succubus will follow, and they can always provide timely services to the senior officers of the empire who are on expeditions abroad.

Of course, most succubi are also the ones being served, because they usually enjoy endless pleasure in the process of being fucked.

Virgin succubi like Ye Ye Sheng Di Ya Ge are, after all, only a minority.

After the fall of the Kingdom of Taimenia, human servants who were keen on leading the way followed suit and developed a system of military maids under the guidance of the Succubus Marshal.

Their attitude was also very positive, as if only in this way could they appear qualified to become members of the Honorary Empire Headquarters.

This means that if Lu Heng really loses this war, who knows how many girls will suffer.

Even now, perhaps countless Taimenians are forced to become military maids.

Even so, it cannot be said that the men of Taimenia have a better life.

After all, in the previous naval battle, there were too many Tymenia men who rushed to the front and took the rune bombs...

If they continue on this path, there is no telling how many men will continue to die and how many women will be slowly consumed to death in the imperial camp.

Lu Heng not only felt sympathy for these poor oppressed people, he also saw opportunities.

Many times, the reason why people did not resist slavery was because they believed that the cost of resistance was too high and they could not afford it.

But as long as they truly realize that the cost of slavery is greater and more unaffordable, they will eventually choose to resist.

By that time, even the voice of the Divine Emperor might not be able to suppress the raging fire of resistance.

Lu Heng also saw from Selron’s memory that only those who were branded with the mark of the Divine Emperor could be truly highly controlled by the Divine Emperor’s voice.

But the vast amount of psychic energy required to create and maintain this mark means that the God-Emperor cannot control everyone.

As long as the oppressed can be provoked to resist, the Taimenia region where the Succubus Marshal Greymori is in charge will not be impregnable.

But Lu Heng also knew that the time was not yet ripe to ignite a spark in the Western Continent.
