I am the magnetic field maniac

The appearance of this power is random, but it is highly contaminating... Generally, the appearance of one magnetic field power user will soon lead to the appearance of another one.

This ratio cannot be said to be high, probably hovering between one in a million and one in ten million.

To be honest, this ratio can be said to be quite low, even much lower than that of psychics.

But the problem is that this power is much more destructive than psychic power!

Psychics are a scourge, and most naturally awakened psychics do not have the ability to control their own power...so often in the end they themselves will become human bombs.

But psychics are also very weak. Except for a very few who are naturally strong, most psychics can be killed by a volley of explosive bombs.

Moreover, even in the most extreme cases, the Empire has many means to deal with psychics. The Assassin's Court has the Chulisas assassins who specialize in dealing with psychics.

And the power of magnetic field - it is much more stable than psychic power, and it will not turn a person into an extremely troublesome bomb... nor will there be the danger of psychics being eaten clean and skinned by demons like psychics.

He is perfect, but that is why he is terrifying.

Fadimas once roughly calculated what would happen if magnetic field forces appeared on Terra.

The answer is catastrophic - with a population of hundreds of billions, Terra will have at least 10,000 people with magnetic field abilities even if calculated at the lowest frequency.

And among these ten thousand people, if we only need to bring out one hundred strong men with a strength of 250,000, the problem will be very troublesome.

And if we continue to roll upwards, even if we only roll out a real master...

Oh wow.

We all have weapons of mass destruction, but you can't just throw them at Terra, right?

But Fadix, who realized the seriousness of the problem, mentioned this matter at the Council of High Lords half a year ago.

However, the conservatives' answer to the Grand Master was ambiguous, or it was their usual policy of procrastination.

But in fact, these well-informed guys are secretly looking for and raising people with magnetic field abilities...

They try to cultivate powerful magnetic field people who suit their interests to serve as their private soldiers.

Actually, there would be nothing wrong if this were the case, but the problem is that they denied Fadix's plan to use virus bombs to cleanse the lower nest.

Yes, Fadix knew what kind of shithole Terra was, as he himself was born in the Lower Nest. So he knew how fucking extreme the lunatics that came out of this shithole would be!

There are hundreds of billions of people in the lower nest, and among the ten thousand magnetic field guys, there must be at least nine thousand who will definitely seek revenge and plunder recklessly after gaining unimaginable power.

Terra's internal individual defense force is simply not enough to protect the factions of the nobles and high lords... unless they get help from the Imperial Guards, but that is obviously impossible.

The Guards had never had to protect the nobles of Terra, and even the lives of the High Lords were of no concern to those Golden Corns.

They only care about the palace and the emperor.

The Custodians may leave the palace, but they will never leave to protect them. They are the Emperor's Custodians, not the Empire's Custodians!

If he didn't kill all those hundreds of billions of people, when the time came... Fadix could foresee that a huge upheaval would occur in the empire!

The plan was rejected, and Fadix had to give up temporarily. The Assassin's Court had the power to monitor the High Lords' Council, but he was not Wangerich after all, and did not have the ability to act arbitrarily.

But he didn't expect that the situation had deteriorated to such an extent in just half a year.

"Send all the Iversons into those chaotic areas, and the rest will protect the Assassin's Temple."

After receiving the communication about the emergency meeting of the High Lords, Fadimas immediately put down the work in his hands, gave the extremely cruel order, and rushed to the hall of the Supreme Lords' Council without hesitation.

"This is an outright act of treason!!"

At the High Lords' Council, Talion gritted his teeth in anger and coldly accused all the High Lords present...

"This is the rebellion that occurred after the return of the Primarchs. We should be alert to whether this is an act of seizing power planned by the Primarchs. I suggest that the Astra Militarum be mobilized immediately to suppress the rebellion and subdue the Primarchs who have arrived."

"Captain General, your actions may only be encouraging the traitors."

Cleopatra Russ, the Supreme Lord of the Inquisition, fiddled with the rose rosary in her hand and said quietly...

"The most urgent task is to immediately suppress the rebellion on Terra and stabilize the situation on the Astronomican."

"We are doing our best to maintain stability." Leops Frank, the head of the Astronomican Academy, sighed.

"We have already filled the system with more than twenty times the number of psykers as before... but the Astronomican is still shaking severely. Perhaps we need more sacrifices..."

"How's Mars?"

"Astral communications are disrupted, but the wrath of Om Messiah will fall upon the heathen."

The Casting General used a fake puppet and said calmly

The high lords spoke to each other, exchanging their interests and expressing an indescribable confidence in the current situation.

Phadix, who had been staring at the silent Imperial Guards Marshal Trajan, stood up and said in a deep voice...

"I think our current situation requires us to immediately curb the spread of that magnetic field force. I suggest restarting the plan I mentioned half a year ago."

"Faddix, you are a bit too extreme." The representative of the Tribunal, Els, sighed.

"Why do you have to wipe out 99% of Terra's population just for an aggressive heretic force? When did you become so extreme?"

Fadix narrowed his eyes. Being called an extremist by a guy from the Inquisition was not the most disgusting thing for him... Instead, the next Pope of the State Church, Bardos Lester, said confidently:

"The forces under our command, including those redeemed, are enough to defeat them. They are also heretical forces... The equipment we provide and the faith in the God-Emperor are enough to make up for all problems."

The Pope's ideas were not wrong. After the high lords devoted their resources to his training, and with the Empire's most advanced weapons and equipment...

Why would those strong magnetic field creatures they cultivated lose to the weak wild ones?

Just as every rebellion is easily suppressed by the regular army, how can a mere unconventional rebel be compared with the regular army?

“They have already failed.”

Trajan, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up. The Imperial Guards' soul calmly looked at the Pope of the State Religion and the group of people who secretly kept people with magnetic field abilities, and said with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes...

"It's obvious that you don't understand this kind of power, and the "regular troops" you trained have been almost defeated."

As for the power of magnetic field, captivity and cultivation actually weaken this power.

A truly strong person can only become stronger by fighting his way out of the weak... and to a strong person, the weak ones are nothing but a bunch of cannon fodder that can be knocked down at any time!

"That's impossible!" Talion retorted with wide eyes.

"Those rebels are just some lowly slaves from the Lower Nest. How could they possibly defeat us—"

boom! !

An even more terrifying roar sounded in the sky, and then an emergency communication was connected. The gloomy face of Senior Admiral Mereda Perez of the Navy appeared in the center of the High Lords' meeting.

The first words he said brought bad news to the entire High Lords' meeting...

"The Dark Angels' flagship launched a sneak attack on the Sun Navy... The war has begun."

133. Terra's Rebellion: Deterioration of Magnetic Field

The chaos on Terra spread faster than one could imagine. The rebels that emerged from the Lower Nest pushed down the once tall and solid order on Terra like dominoes.

The order established by the bloated bureaucracy and the rigid Arbitral Tribunal is collapsing faster than Lego blocks... and the blockades maintained by the local Astra Militarum on Terra will be quickly overwhelmed by the rebels.

After all, Terra had been at peace for too long. Even though the power of the Solar Region was the strongest in the entire empire...

However, the overly bloated system and the fact that there had been no war for a long time had made them too lax in their vigilance.

Moreover, they never realized that the light that enveloped them would one day stop protecting them.

The belief in the Emperor united the people of the Empire, but it also taught them to be weak. When faced with an unbeatable enemy, they habitually prayed and begged for the Emperor's help.

But the God Emperor, he is not here.

Tzeentch has intervened in all of this. He caused the light of the Astronomican to flicker, blocking the Emperor's main forces from returning to Terra. During this gap in time, the remaining evil gods, especially Khorne, began to work hard.

A large number of cultists hiding in the Lower Nest began to act. They burned, killed, looted, and used the dead and souls to summon evil creatures from the Warp, spreading pollution with pollution, and creating death with death.

In fact, when it comes down to it, it is not the evil gods but themselves who have caused the greatest chaos on Terra today.

To sum it up in a simple sentence, it is -

There are fucking enemies everywhere, there are fucking lunatics everywhere!

Fadix's prediction about Terra was correct. If there were only less than one billion people on Terra who were treated as human beings out of hundreds of billions of people, there would be many people who were full of resentment and hatred.

After they gain the power of the magnetic field, each of them becomes a time bomb on Terra.

In the face of the defense lines maintained by the Astra Militarum, they would often be torn apart by a person with magnetic field abilities who broke in halfway through the rebel attack.

Even a user with the ability to be propelled by electric current possesses physical strength and destructive power comparable to that of an Astartes... let alone a user with the ability to use magnetic fields who was swept up in the cruel Lower Nest.

They may not have any strong beliefs, but they must have a cruel heart and the ability to survive in a cruel environment.

And if they have power, they must obtain authority that matches their power.

If those in power don’t give it to them, they will rob them!

Those missionaries used to talk about sacrificing for the empire, but now it's all bullshit...

Because that bullshit may be useful to fool people from other places, but it is unnecessary to fool the people of Terra.

The emperor is right in front of them. Does it mean that he will have to go into the factory before the age of ten and turn into corpse starch before the age of twenty?

They can feel the emperor's glory, but in the end, aren't they still working hard for the masters who have no worries about food and clothing?

The place closest to the Emperor is precisely where the belief in the Emperor is the weakest.

Compared to Terra's population of hundreds of billions, how many permanent troops does Terra have?

Not counting the Solar Navy headquartered on Mars and a series of armies stationed outside Terra's orbit, the number of troops on Terra itself is barely around one billion.

This is still a very optimistic estimate. If we include those who are drawing empty salaries and those who are not fully staffed, the number will drop further.

Can this garrison of one billion people contain at least ten thousand people with magnetic field abilities?

In theory it is possible, but in practice it is almost impossible.

War, especially one that occurs in important cities on the mainland, is not simply a matter of numbers or the weapons of both sides.

The crazy guys don't even fight with the main force, they just go to important areas and wreak havoc.

As for the Astartes? That's a joke!

The Astartes were positioned as a group of special forces that serve as the spearhead of the Imperial Army. What they are best at is infiltration and assassination. How can you ask them to garrison hundreds of billions of people?

This was simply not possible with the capabilities of the Imperial Fists forces remaining on Terra.

What's more, there are those Chaos evil gods mixed in, and a large number of Chaos sects have risen up... Some crazy guys have simply been upgraded to Demon Princes of Khorne on the spot!

And then? Just fucking kill him!

And who said that Madmen can only be produced in the middle nest and the lower nest?

There has always been a lot of filth and dirt in the upper nest, and there has never been a shortage of environment for producing crazy people.

Chaos is a virus, and once it spreads, there is no cure for it.

The chaos caused by hundreds of billions of dollars is a situation that cannot be suppressed by ordinary means.

Therefore, the High Lords of Terra adopted Fadix's opinion.

But unfortunately, the virus bomb was already dropped, and those crazy guys had already escaped from the lower nest, so they had to settle for the next best thing -

A large number of fusion nuclear bombs were dropped towards Terra from orbital battleships.

This was not a rational decision. In fact, Fadix was strongly opposed to using weapons of mass destruction to suppress the rebellion of the magnetic field users. But once again, the interest groups among the high lords rejected the proposal of the assassin's master.

They don't think there is any rebellion that cannot be suppressed by weapons. As long as the flesh is eliminated, any problem will no longer exist!

They were targeting the worst-hit areas on Terra right now.

Tashkent Hive, Salvatore Hive, Jericho Hive, Noviyon First City...

They are all the largest and most populous hives on Terra...

But when the fusion nuclear bomb dragging the flames and rubbing against the industrial poison gas exploded in the hive, even Magnus on the moon could see it clearly.

“Ahahahaha, it exploded, it exploded!!”

Magnus's single eye looked at the white light bags that kept swelling up on the golden planet, and at the city that was roaring and destroyed under the pure light and flames, and he just laughed wildly...

See! He alone accomplished what only Horus could do!

Moreover, he didn't do anything himself at all, he only needed magic and trickery to make everything go as he wanted!

The Chaos Sorcerer beside Magnus chanted the blasphemous Wrinkle loudly...

The Scarlet King laughed wildly as he mobilized the souls of those humans who died tragically into his great spell.
