Chapter 837

~9 min read 1,723 words

Isn't this a curse?!

And everyone suddenly had a strange idea: what if the Emperor became the final Master?

The Emperor should have been born in their world, replacing Fujimaru Ritsuka!

The Emperor's iron-blooded means might not be comparable to Fujimaru Ritsuka's "succubus method," but in terms of survival, no one can compare to the Emperor!

The Emperor loves all humanity, loves this race. He puts the interests of all humanity before all individuals, including the Emperor himself!

If the Emperor were in their world, the incineration of Human Order, the blanking of Proper Human History, would all be destroyed by the Emperor by any means!

Even they, these mages, would be regarded as enemies by the Emperor!

Warhammer World

"So that's it..."

Horus understood his father's intentions. A true Emperor who can understand mortals would absolutely not, and should not be, a gene warrior like them who was born for battle and exists for battle.

All of this is for humanity, for humanity to be great again, for humanity to survive better.

But until now, Horus still doesn't know why his father suddenly withdrew during the Great Crusade and let them face the enemy alone.

Could it be... this was Father's trial for them?

Horus, whose memory is forever stuck before being corrupted, is extremely eager to know this answer!

Across the Myriad Worlds, everyone is also curious about what made the Emperor withdraw from the Great Crusade!

【

The Emperor withdrew from the Great Crusade without explaining to anyone, because what he was doing was an absolutely confidential matter!

Let humanity completely get rid of the influence of the Warp!

Build a hyperspace engine that can allow humanity to completely get rid of Warp navigation!

Through the Golden Throne, the technology left by the ancient civilization of the Old Ones, reshape the Webway left by the Aeldari!

Once successful, humanity will completely get rid of the threat of being corrupted or killed while navigating in the Warp!

And this plan will also lead humanity to an unprecedented height, even surpassing the humans of the Golden Age, surpassing the Aeldari!

This plan was too important. Except for a few confidants guarding Terra, the Emperor didn't tell anyone, and didn't dare to tell anyone!

The Emperor called it the Webway Project!

】

Across the Myriad Worlds

Some strong people, after seeing the Webway Project and connecting it to the essence of the Warp, have already sensed the Emperor's true intention!

The Emperor... wants to lead humanity to achieve true ascension through the Webway Project?!

Chapter 472: The Emperor's True Plan! Psychic Ascension! Emperor, is this what you wanted to see?! Horus Heresy!

【Lelouch: "The Webway Project, from the surface, is to let humanity get rid of the threat of the Warp and the corruption of Chaos, and be able to navigate better in the stars. But in reality, Emperor, your goal is more than that, right? You want to use the Webway to lead humanity to ascension!"】

【Gendo Ikari: "Conquering the cradle of humanity, conquering the galaxy—everything is for the final step, becoming a psychic race. Everything is to escort humanity. As expected of the Emperor, the final result is actually wanting to let humanity achieve ascension."】

【Shirai Kuroko: "So that's it. What Great Crusade, recovering human colonies—they were actually all paving the way for the Webway Project! Psychic ascension sounds exciting!"】

【Horus: "Because the Webway Project requires massive resources, the Empire was established. The establishment of the Empire and the Great Crusade can be said to be for the Webway Project. So that's it, so that's it! Father, you are correct! It is our vision that was too narrow! This is the true future of humanity!"】

【Sanguinius: "... The future of humanity. Yes, if there hadn't been all that betrayal, everything should have been like this."】

Warhammer World

The aliens, after seeing the Emperor's Webway Project, had their backs soaked in sweat!

They didn't expect that the Fifth Evil God, the golden giant, was actually researching the Webway!

No wonder he didn't dare to reveal it to his Primarch sons. Once this matter was revealed, all forces in the galaxy would do everything possible to stop the Emperor!

As for the benefits? Bluntly speaking, as long as the Emperor's Webway is truly established, humanity will never again face the threat of being corrupted or killed by the Warp while navigating!

Humanity can use the Webway to travel to various parts of the Empire!

They can even use the Webway to achieve psychic evolution and become the next Aeldari!

How terrifying are the Aeldari? Let's put it this way: the peak humans of the Golden Age fought the Aeldari to a draw, and were even slightly inferior.

But that was the peak period of human civilization and power. What about the Aeldari? They had already been decadent for ten thousand years!

But humans didn't have the anti-psychic materials of the Aeldari back then, right? Then this Webway interface will become the key target for Warp corruption, right?

So the Emperor is going to personally guard the Webway with his own psychic power?!

At the same time, in the void on the other side

Horus's body was trembling with excitement. After understanding his father's true intentions, Horus felt his blood boiling!

It even made him not notice Sanguinius's sigh.

Horus clenched his fists, his expression excited! The misunderstanding of the Emperor before his death all dissipated!

His father didn't abandon them, but went alone to take on more important things—the true future of humanity!

Not leading humanity to greatness, but leading humanity to transcend greatness! Transcend the peak!

【

Absolute loyalty is absolute disloyalty!

The Emperor withdrew alone, excluding the Primarchs from the political core. The mortals in power not only did not maintain respect for the Primarchs and Astartes warriors but even treated them as tools, not even giving them the glory they deserved.

One thing after another, the Emperor never explained.

Although Horus didn't understand, he still tried his best to appease the brothers who were dissatisfied, and guaranteed that after the Great Crusade ended, he would ask everyone for an answer.

But not all Primarchs accepted this statement. Lorgar, the 17th son of the Emperor and Primarch of the Word Bearers, was one of them.

During the Great Crusade, Lorgar not only did not follow the Emperor's will to promote the Imperial Truth but instead constantly promoted the Emperor's personal divinity doctrine like a shaman!

He even used his Primarch wisdom to write a book called the *Lectitio Divinitatus* to prove the Emperor's divinity!

But now everything has changed.

Lorgar once worshipped his father as a god, but the Emperor destroyed all of this, destroyed Lorgar's self-perceived faith.

Although Lorgar devoted himself to the Great Crusade after that, everything seemed the same, but Lorgar's heart was so empty. His father was no longer a god; Lorgar no longer believed in his father!

He urgently needed a god, a true god!

But where are the gods? Where should he go to find the true gods!

Someone gave the answer. Erebus, the First Chaplain of the Word Bearers, had already believed in the primitive religion disguised by the Warp evil gods before Lorgar was brought by the Warp storm.

Erebus had long been corrupted by Chaos. He tactfully said that the Emperor's truth was false and that there were true gods in the universe, and he guided Lorgar to the Cadian sector!

And Lorgar, whose heart was empty, immediately set off, leading his legions toward the Cadian sector!

But Lorgar didn't know that there was an Eye of Terror in the Cadian sector. This was the place where the fourth god, Slaanesh, was born two hundred years ago, and the cry tore the space!

After Lorgar arrived in this sector, a priestess who called herself Ra'al received Lorgar's arrival and ascended to a Daemon Prince through a ritual in front of Lorgar.

Ra'al invited Lorgar to enter the Eye of Terror, "Everything you crave is there, the truth you want is there!"

And Lorgar did not withstand the temptation and soon followed her into the Eye of Terror!

Chaos... corruption... truth...

Lorgar saw it. He saw the truth in the Warp, saw the true truth of the universe, and saw that the Imperial Truth promoted by that False Emperor was just nonsense!

The Emperor deceived everyone! What "reject superstition," what "believe in science"!

There are gods in the universe! True gods!

If humanity does not accept the corruption of Chaos, then humanity's fate will be the same as the decadent Aeldari he saw!

The resentment and anger toward the Emperor in his heart made Lorgar not hesitate at all to throw himself into the embrace of the Chaos Gods.

The Emperor is wrong. That False Emperor deceived everyone. He wants to overthrow the False Emperor; he wants to promote the true gods to the entire universe!

But Lorgar didn't act rashly. Compared to fighting, he was better at thinking. Fighting the entire Empire with his own power was like throwing an egg against a rock, even if the entire Word Bearers legion was added.

So he needed allies. Without allies, he would create allies.

After Lorgar left the Eye of Terror, he immediately corrupted the Word Bearers legion into Chaos Warriors, and then Lorgar's gaze shifted to Warmaster Horus.

Lorgar knew that only by corrupting Horus could Chaos have a chance to fight that False Emperor in the real universe!

】

【Siduri: "Absolute loyalty is absolute disloyalty. There really isn't even a chance to wash it white. Lorgar didn't even trust his own King, so wait for the judgment to descend in the embrace of Chaos!"】

【Horus: "... Betrayal! What betrayal! Lorgar, you deserve to die!"】

【Lorgar: "Heh, great Warmaster, please allow me to call you Warmaster here, because the fact is just that. And continue watching; you are even more unbearable than me."】

【Horus: "More unbearable than you... Are you saying I was corrupted by Chaos?! No! Impossible! I absolutely cannot betray Father!"】

【Evil Morty: "So the contradictions were buried long ago, right? The encounters during childhood determined the personalities of the Primarchs. Their defects are too big. The Emperor didn't give them the love they deserved, nor did he explain it to them. Being corrupted by Chaos is just a matter of time."】
