Chapter 124: Dedicated Erebus, the New Perfect City
Chapter 124: Dedicated Erebus, the New Perfect City
Shortly after Roddick left the Empire aboard the Death Watch battle barge, Erebus the Cosmic Dust, the former chief priest of the Word Bearers, once again returned to Holy Terra.
"My respected Divine Emperor."
Erebus bowed his head respectfully in the Sky Eagle salute.
Li Jia looked at the guy in front of him and felt overwhelmed.
Malcador had already explained to him what this guy's intentions were last time.
At that time, Li Jia was wondering why this guy suddenly brought the Lord of Lust to Holy Terra to see him.
It turns out that this guy wanted to corrupt himself by using the hand of the Lord of Lust.
Unfortunately, the Lord of Lust was severely beaten by Moloch, the leader of the Minotaurs.
It was then made into a scepter by Alto, the commander of the War Beasts.
This also caused Erebus's plan to fail.
Li Jia also learned that this guy had never launched any expedition since he came to this universe and spent more than two thousand years conquering a galaxy.
And turned one of the planets into a cathedral.
A statue of his image was erected in the middle of the cathedral, and four huge statues of the four gods of the Warp were built around it, as well as some smaller statues of lesser gods of the Warp, surrounding his statue in the middle.
Erebus called it the New Perfect City.
All humans must make a pilgrimage to the Perfect City every ten years.
Those who do not worship will be executed directly for heresy, and even the planet they are on will be implicated.
Li Jia gets a headache every time he thinks about this.
He has countless Space Marines under his command, but he has never had the urge to kill anyone.
Erebus was the first.
If they weren't worried that killing this guy would have a negative psychological impact on the Space Marines produced by the system.
Li Jia had already taken action.
Fortunately, this guy didn't do anything out of line.
His purpose was only to help himself ascend to the throne of god, and he had no bad intentions.
Li Jia is not Big E, if he has the chance he will become a god.
He won't have any hesitation.
"Erebus, what brings you to the empire again?"
This guy wouldn't come to the Empire unless he had something to do.
As the saying goes, one does not visit the temple unless he has something to ask for.
"My respected Divine Emperor, I would like to invite you to visit the City of Perfection. The people there all want to see your noble face."
Erebus rolled his eyes.
Li Jia knew from his expression that he was definitely up to no good.
"Erebus, you don't have any new plans, do you?"
Li Jia looked at Erebus with amusement.
"My respected Divine Emperor, I sincerely invite you to visit the City of Perfection."
"Okay, let's go and take a look."
Li Jia thought about it and agreed.
Erebus was overjoyed.
"Then respected God Emperor, when do we set off?"
Li Jia wanted to laugh when she saw Eribas's impatient look.
"Right now, I also want to see what the perfect city you built looks like."
"Yes, my respected Divine Emperor will definitely not let you down."
Eribas followed Li Jia to the outside of the palace.
"Respected God-Emperor, please take my battleship."
"Can".
Seeing that Li Jia agreed, Erebus contacted the warship parked in the orbit of Holy Terra.
A uniquely shaped Thunder transport plane arrived above the palace.
Li Jia, Casper, Sastia, followed Erebus into the transport plane.
Then it flew towards the sky.
After entering Erebus's exclusive battleship, the Faith, he started the subspace engine, opened the crack of the source of fear, and flew in.
Erebus brought Li Jia to sit on the throne specially built for the God-Emperor.
Li Jia touched the throne.
I don’t know what material it is made of, but it feels warm to the touch, which makes Li Jia feel very comfortable sitting on it.
It's just all these fancy things.
Li Jia looked at Erebus who was standing respectfully beside him.
The latter just kept smiling, and there was nothing fishy to be seen from his face.
"Respected Divine Emperor, it will take a few days to reach the City of Perfection. You can close your eyes and take a rest."
"Ok".
Li Jia leaned on the back of the throne, closed his eyes and rested.
Sudden.
Two human women walked out from either side.
The clothes he wore were made of very little fabric.
But when they wanted to get close to Li Jia, they were stopped by the Silent Sister Sastia.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Erebus's eyes.
Li Jia closed his eyes, but his brows were furrowed at this moment.
Because he came to another space.
There were four figures sitting in the space.
Li Jia recognized the identities of the four figures at a glance from their characteristics.
None other than the Four Gods of the Warp.
Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle, Slaanesh.
However, the four figures just kept staring at Li Jia without making any movements.
Just when Li Jia wanted to go up and say hello, a force of energy brought Li Jia back to the real world.
Li Jia opened her eyes and looked at the familiar surroundings.
"Emperor, are you okay?"
Sastia's voice sounded in Li Jia's ears.
"It's okay, what happened to me just now?"
"The spiritual energy in your body was a little out of control just now, but I have dispelled the negative effects."
"Ok".
Li Jia turned his head to look at Erebus who was standing on the other side.
Li Jia caught the disappointment in the latter's eyes again.
Li Jia smiled.
This guy has so many tricks and so many ways to do it.
Soon Li Jia felt that the warship had stopped.
"Respected Divine Emperor, we are here."
Seeing that his plan had failed again, Erebus was disappointed for a moment before speaking up to remind him.
"Lead the way."
"Yes, respected God Emperor."
Erebus walked towards the battleship's hatch first.
Li Jia followed with Caspar and Sastia.
Just as everyone walked out of Erebus's Faith, another warship fell from the sky.
Erebus looked up.
The battleship is painted with the logo of a giant eagle with outstretched wings on one side and the logo of the Emperor's crown on the other side.
"The Divine Emperor..."
Erebus didn't expect that the Holy Terra Emperor's Royal Guards would also come.
"It's okay, don't worry about them, take me to visit your perfect city."
"Yes, respected God Emperor."
Eribas withdrew his gaze and walked towards the distant city with Li Jia and others.
Before entering the city, I saw a huge statue standing in the open space in front of the city.
The statue is still the image of Li Jia.
Then everyone passed through the city gate and saw a road filled with gold.
Leading directly to the very center of the city.
There is a castle with a strange shape.
"Great God-Emperor, welcome to the new perfect city."
Along the way, Erebus acted as a guide, introducing everything he saw on the road.
Li Jia listened with great interest.
It’s a pity for this guy’s talent.
All the cleverness is used in crooked ways, if it were used in proper places.
Li Jia believes that Eribas's achievements go beyond this.
It's a pity that this guy is a born bad guy who takes pride in being evil.
