just this number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time they hit the jackpot, raiding more than a dozen ships and brought them all back to this temporary base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among those dozen ships, there was a large batch of crew alone, not to mention the vast number of immigrants hitching a ride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after their raided ships arrived at this location, within less than ten days, most of them were killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unarmed human captives didn’t have much means of resistance in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few heavily resisting armed merchant ships were destroyed, turning into space debris; those captured were infiltrated by the Dark Spirit Race with their Blood Slaves, who stormed inside the ships, slaughtered the armed guards, then introduced specially-made drugs into several internal air circulation systems throughout the ship, knocking everyone out, easily completing the captives’ work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This has become the common practice of the Dark Spirit Race pirates, they have become very adept at it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after a successful raid, they have a rather sophisticated method for dealing with these captives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Human population raiding is indeed the most important goal of the Dark Spirit Race when they go out to rob.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Humans, whether of the human race or others, are all emotional, intelligent, and soulful advanced beings, which are their targets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The development of Comoros requires a large population.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spirit Race is a population-scarce species.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With insufficient population themselves, they can only rely on other races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Supplementing labor is just one of the smallest reasons for these black sprouts capturing captives and slaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The largest goal is for slaughter, abuse, and amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it sounds rather absurd, it is indeed true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zelnos had a long period without proper slaughtering or torturing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt his soul was about to dissipate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, it wasn’t merely a ‘feeling’, it was reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spirit Race, tens of thousands of years ago, was the undisputed dominator of this universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They possessed a highly advanced civilization, vast territories, and a splendid culture…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But all of this was completely obliterated in the Spirit Race’s boundless enjoyment, indulgence, revelry, and downfall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entirety of the Spirit Race became sacrifices, resulting in the birth of the youngest deity among the Subspace’s Four Gods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its birth consumed the destruction of a universe dominant race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brilliant civilization and nation of the Spirit Race thus vanished utterly, along with their ‘gods’ — some fell or were corrupted by Slaanesh, becoming her toy and minion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining Spirit Race split into two branches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both claimed themselves as the true inheritors of the Spirit Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One branch, with white skin, became known as the Ark Eldar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They established sanctuaries — often an Ark sailing in space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ark was equipped with soul stones, creating a virtual space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spirit Race’s souls were placed in the soul stones, severing their souls’ contact with Subspace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They practice asceticism, self-denial, and strictly guard their minds, enabling them to avoid being noticed by Slaanesh in life, while their souls, after death, return to the sanctuary, becoming fuel for the Ark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the other, with dark skin, lives in the mystical city of ‘Comoros’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Comoros is located in the veil between Subspace and the real universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The veil of reality supposedly lacks the concept of thickness, but during the Spirit Race’s peak era, their technological level was unimaginable, they were able to carve out a space within the veil and build a city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ‘city’, unlike typical cities, since it isn’t in the real universe but within the veil, can use Subspace to open pathways within the city at any time, much like a Star Realm Tunnel, leading to any location in this real universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they were not located in Subspace, allowing them to escape the calamity during Slaanesh’s birth, which swept across both Subspace and the real universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet escaping the calamity doesn’t imply everything is fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every living Spirit Race couldn’t escape Slaanesh’s control, and this isn’t just talk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the Ark Eldar who established sanctuaries and promoted asceticism, the Dark Spirit Race had chosen a different path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their souls were connected to Comoros, ensuring their souls wouldn’t be immediately absorbed by Slaanesh — once this connection is severed, it’s over, their souls would be directly drawn into Slaanesh’s domain, becoming her eternal toys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is the most painful thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should they die, their souls would also return to Comoros, preserved in the soul boxes they left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the Dark Spirit Race, they have high-grade blood engineers known as Blood伶 people, who would craft a flesh body to allow their souls to revive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there would be a lengthy weakness period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the best outcome would be being able to bring back the dead Dark Spirit Race’s body and perform surgery for much better results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If surgeries haven’t been done for too long or the death time is too extended, then the Dark Spirit Race would truly die — after death, their souls would belong to Slaanesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the ultimate fear for every member of the Spirit Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They fear true death far more than any other races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because, unlike other races, for whom death leads to nothingness; for them, dying means eternal torment and punishment, lasting until the universe’s destruction, with no liberation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they haven’t died completely, the Dark Spirit Race is more prone to attract Slaanesh’s attention compared to their compatriots on the Ark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, Slaanesh would constantly have her eyes on them, constantly absorbing their souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, with Comoros’s protection, this process is relatively slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they do nothing, maybe ten years?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twenty years?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fifty years?…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ultimately, their souls would be absorbed slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To prevent their souls from being absorbed, they would need to find substitutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through abuse, violence, massacre, and other means, creating boundless pain would serve as soul substitutes to be absorbed, preserving their own souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, it could replenish the deficiency in their souls, achieving extended lifespan and enhanced strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most powerful governor in the family might even truly attain immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the genuine reason the Dark Spirit Race continues to raid foreign populations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leading such a raiding fleet is Zelnos Blood Curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is a mid-level cadre of the Blood Curse Family, one of the top-ranking families from Comoros.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mission within the family is to lead a raiding fleet, frequently launch attacks, and reap benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Comoros’s characteristic of being able to open a door to the real universe anytime, they can truly come and go without leaving a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the Veil Spirit Gate doesn’t come without limitations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A place where a Veil Spirit Gate can be opened must necessarily have an entity constructed by the Dark Spirit Race in the real universe, serving as a location’s coordinates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The area where Zelnos frequently operates isn’t in the Spiderweb Domain but in the northern Star Devouring Cosmos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fierce battle in the Spiderweb Domain was daunting even for the Spirit Race of Comoros.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are plenty of places to raid so there’s no need to bother when humans fighting amongst themselves, humans battling the Void Insect Species, causing bloody confrontations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, there won’t be any attention on the Spiderweb Domain for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a sudden order from the family’s upper echelon forced him to be dispatched there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was compelled to lead his raiding fleet, return to Comoros first, then enter the nearest Veil Spirit Gate coordinates in the Spiderweb Domain — located in the northern Sword Gate Starfield of the Spiderweb Domain — followed by a long voyage in the real universe, arriving at the Fox Moon Star Domain to establish a Veil Spirit Gate and then launch raiding actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His raiding target is the Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, another power conducting trade with the Infinite Starfield.\u003C\u002Fp>",1310,"2026-06-05T14:29:31.978Z",1,"novelbin.me","183bcabc1c84959bdfb4ff0c47675902266cbd0050dc4c7a5c2f7c3ac3a4e82b","starting-from-the-planetary-governor-chapter-1278","starting-from-the-planetary-governor-chapter-1276",1694,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-from-the-planetary-governor-cover.jpg"]
