Chapter 436: Level 2 Shelter and Letter
Su Xing led the team to set off.
1,000 personnel, a total of 50 Rhino transport vehicles, 400 Space Marines running and walking for protection, 400 Space Marines waiting for battle in the vehicles, rotating every 12 hours. In addition, there were 50 powerful Skitarii selected from the Mechanicus and one Tech-Priest, well, now he has been promoted to a Tech-Priest, and the Tech-Priest who followed Su Xing at the beginning, well, now he has been promoted to a Tech-Priest.
Then there were 100 elite crusade troops with one Arch-Priest. Their combat effectiveness was the weakest, but their will was the highest. Su Xing didn't want to take them, but Kethya explained to Su Xing the reason for taking them. These people have extremely strong religious eloquence and rendering power. After going to the target star sector, they can organize local people most quickly, and their strong faith can resist Warp corruption when Su Xing is away.
Finally, there were 50 Sisters of Battle units, with one famous Arch-Sister.
Su Xing had seen the Sisters of Battle units on the battlefield. Although they were all women, their combat skills were exquisite, whether long-range or melee, second only to Space Marines, and their morale was extremely high, and they were also the human members least likely to be corrupted.
This was fine, but what made Su Xing puzzled was that these 50 Sisters of Battle units selected, including that Arch-Sister, were basically personnel with good looks. Although they were full of muscles, just looking at that appearance was pleasing to the eye, which made Su Xing feel a bit strange. But anyway, he was confused about this world, maybe these Sisters of Battle with good looks were all soldiers?
In short, the team set off, and the original battlefield area was also controlled by the commanders of the various units who came to support. Their task was to lure away the Four-God demon groups, and at the same time quickly evacuate the planet. After Su Xing and others entered the Webway, the personnel evacuated, and they would use destructive weapons to completely blow up the planet.
This task would never be completed if it were changed to another situation, because turning their backs to the enemy and leaving would immediately lead to a great collapse. But these Four-God demons had no intelligence and reason at all, and were no different from beasts, which gave those powerful commanders a chance. Under the plans of splitting, luring, using vehicles to block, and retreating, they did disperse and lure away the Four-God demons, and the main force also seized the time to return to the space warships.
This battle was about to come to an end.
But all 1,000 expeditionary forces knew that the Four Evil Gods would not be reconciled to failure.
They can fail countless times, but humans are finished if they fail once.
Eldar female Farseer Elnoth sat in the same Rhino transport vehicle as Su Xing. Besides her, there were the Grey Knight Librarian, the Grand Inquisitor's apostle, Mechanicus Tech-Priest Tansang, the newly appointed Tech-Priest Amida, Ecclesiarchy Arch-Priest Promi, Ecclesiarchy Deputy Arch-Priest Laiston, Arch-Sister Aliceina, etc.
Among them, the newly appointed Tech-Priest Amida and Ecclesiarchy Deputy Arch-Priest Laiston were acquaintances Su Xing knew in the Heaven World, but now they were promoted, and from their emotions, it could be perceived that their titles jumped several levels directly.
In other Rhino vehicles, there were two acquaintances, one was Kethya's guard commander Taichilong, and the other was the lucky one of this battle, and because he had meritorious service in guarding the trench, his loyalty and ability were verified, Commissar Elien. They were also promoted, and were specially allowed to participate in this great human revival-level expedition.
These were humans, Elves... no, Eldar. And the Eldar only had Elnoth following, while the other Farseer Yvraine Uthran was commanding the Eldar army in the dark.
Except for humans and Eldar, the non-humans were the three Demon Primarchs, Angron's head, and Mortarion and Magnus possessing humans.
They were all in this Rhino transport vehicle at this moment.
At this time, Ecclesiarchy Arch-Priest Promi was respectfully speaking to Su Xing.
This was a kind old man of about 60 years old. He respectfully said to Su Xing: "Your Excellency Living Saint, all life is the Emperor's currency. This is not just a statement in a religious sense, but its essence has more realistic significance... Because of the corruption of the Warp, just knowing about the Warp can bring destruction to mortals without any defense, so we cannot tell the truth after death to the trillions of people in the entire Empire. This is not just a simple policy of keeping the people ignorant, but because the nature of the Warp determines all this. Do you agree with this?"
Su Xing nodded in affirmation while sensing Promi's emotions.
Promi lowered his head slightly and said: "In fact, 10,000 years ago, the Emperor once promoted the Imperial Truth in the entire Human Empire. It was a philosophy of life and scientific guidance theory that advocated science, maintained rationality, refused to believe in demons, and refused to believe in any supernatural affairs. In the library of the Ecclesiarchy headquarters on Terra, there are clear records of many deeds and remarks of the Emperor. These materials are only qualified to be seen by the Arch-Priests of each star sector, and they are not allowed to be spoken out. But I can also tell Your Excellency that in these records, the Emperor clearly stated many times that He is not a god, and refused idol worship. The humans He expected were rational, self-strengthening, brave, and united life."
Su Xing nodded again and asked strangely: "Since you all know, why did you start the Ecclesiarchy and engage in feudal superstition after the Emperor was trapped in the Golden Throne?"
Promi still lowered his head and said: "Because the Imperial Truth cannot save the Empire. The Warp is an objective fact, and supernatural power is also a real existence. Demons exist, demons exist, Evil Gods exist, and the terrifying existence of being corrupted because of knowing, and the suffering of human souls after death also exist... After losing the Emperor, we humans have no way to fight against the Warp, demons, and Evil Gods equally. The only thing we can do is to rely on the belief in the Emperor to isolate Warp corruption. This has been proven correct over 10,000 years. The lofty belief in the Emperor can indeed resist Warp corruption, demons, and even the power of Evil Gods."
Su Xing fell silent.
He did discover this fact. Those fanatical believers, they indeed have the ability to resist corruption, which is not an illusion or superstition.
Promi's expression was still calm, his attitude was still respectful, and he lowered his head and said: "It is not that the Ecclesiarchy chose the policy of keeping the people ignorant and overturned the rational path the Emperor chose for us humans, but that this world forced us to do so... Just like the sentence 'life is the Emperor's currency', we cannot tell the people the truth after death, because this will lead to their large-scale corruption, leading the Warp to directly corrode the reality veil, so we can only persuade humans to cherish life from the perspective of faith, because this is the Emperor's blessing, and also promote the soul returning to the Golden Throne. This is not the fear philosophy we want to promote in religion, but to tell them the truth in a way that does not corrupt them as much as possible..."
"Perhaps living in Hive Worlds, Death Worlds, various Forge Worlds, various Fortress Worlds, and War Worlds is a very tragic thing, but please try your best to live, even if it is just for one more second, because... the afterlife is the true hell. We can only shout silently in this way to tell them."
Su Xing was silent.
He perceived the compassion of great love without boundaries in Promi's emotions, and also perceived the cruelty of iron-blooded ruthlessness. These two completely different emotions and thoughts were so perfectly integrated at this moment, which was truly the first time he had seen it.
Promi saw that Su Xing accepted these explanations, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately said: "Living Saint, please allow me to promote your domain to humans, Heaven Death. This is the name we decided to take for it after discussion. As long as you are by your side, fighting for you, for humanity, and for the Emperor, then you will lead the dead to a heaven-like afterlife, where it is quiet and peaceful, and all the dead will enjoy an incomparably comfortable eternal sleep."
Su Xing thought about it and said: "Yes."
Promi immediately said: "But please also allow me to modify a small part of the content. First, one must fight to the death. Second, there must be enough value before death. If it is just for death, it is not allowed, including suicide charges, etc., unless the suicide charge has extremely high value. Third, it must be for humanity, for you, and for the Emperor. Fourth, if a demon is killed, Heaven Death can be directly allowed. Fifth, whether it meets the requirements for Heaven Death can only be evaluated by the Emperor, you, and the Arch-Priests of the Ecclesiarchy and above. No one else has the right to evaluate, otherwise it is heresy!!"
Su Xing did not determine it immediately this time. He thought for a long time and transmitted to Beelzebub to get confirmation, and then nodded: "Okay, I agree."
Promi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and lowered his head: "I think other warriors, generals, and our 'allies' probably have more important things to talk to the Living Saint. Please allow me to retire and start compiling the religious content about Heaven Death with my colleagues."
Su Xing nodded, and then Elnoth leaned over to Su Xing as fast as she could and said: "Your Excellency Living Saint, the Eldar troops are guarding outside the Webway. We can pass quickly, because we were ambushed and besieged by the Dark Kin in the Webway. The main force contained the enemy. Currently, only 1,500 combat units have reached the battlefield, of which about 600 combat units committed suicide, and the remaining 900 combat units are elite warriors, rangers, Howling Banshees, and two Phoenix Lord warriors. This force is enough to protect..."
Su Xing's face was suddenly happy, which made Elnoth smile, while the humans around were all sinking in their hearts.
But Su Xing ignored them, just focused his attention on the Main Brain information.
"You established a level 2 shelter."
"You received a message sent by level 7 citizen Chu Minghao."
"Whether to listen."
