Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 405: Repent! Repent! (Please subscribe)

At this moment, everyone present felt nervous, even Akan Rand, who led the team to analyze the mind control tower. He didn't know whether the technological relic he retrieved would work as expected.

The air was filled with heavy breathing sounds, and from time to time there was the sound of dripping equipment and instruments running, accompanied by a burst of sticky white mist gushing out. The rooms where the mortal cultists were imprisoned were also opened one by one, and the sound of mechanical gears turning rang out one after another.

Afterwards, the cultists walked out one after another. They looked dazed, even indifferent, completely different from their previous crazy and arrogant appearance.

Luo Xi noticed that their previously distorted eyes were now calmer than ever before, without any emotional waves surging.

There is no hatred, no fear, and no madness that is on the verge of self-destruction.

"What will happen to the cultists who believe in the evil gods of the warp once they are stamped with the thought of [rationality]?"

"Can their false and evil beliefs be covered by the ideological stamp?"

Luo Xi was also curious about the answer to this question. Was it their crazy beliefs that defeated the ideological stamp, or was it the ideological stamp that suppressed the blasphemous thoughts and made them rational again?

It would be an incredible invention if the corruption of Chaos could be eliminated.

Just as he was imagining this in his mind, a leading cultist slowly walked out of the crowd.

There were countless hideous and terrifying tattoos on his body, the most common of which were the patterns of the Chaos Eight-pointed Star. Luo Xi also caught a glimpse of a blurry book and some blasphemous creatures that resembled winged demons.

"These are followers of the Lord of Change. Among the many evil gods, the one representing change is the most powerful and complex. His nature makes the faith particularly complicated. Many variants are extensions of the Tzeentch sect."

"What did I do?"

The cultists looked at their own hands in disbelief. Their tattooed skin was covered with horrific scars, which were the marks they left on themselves in order to demonstrate their devout faith.

The bones and blood from other human compatriots pierced into his skin, leaving hideous lines. When he looked at his hands, waves of strong hallucinations kept coming and impacting his consciousness.

Countless mouths chattered in his ears, constantly bewitching and persuading him to remain firm in his faith in the Lord of Change, and that the mighty one would surely reward him.

He will ascend to heaven and become a lucky man favored by God, and enjoy endless vanity and happiness from then on.

If it were in the past, his consciousness would have completely collapsed, and he would have lost himself again in countless whispers and murmurs.

But now, under the influence of the ideological stamp, he looked at himself completely like an outsider. His memory was not affected. He remembered clearly what he had done and understood what he had accepted now.

He was able to look at the world and his own ridiculous beliefs with complete objectivity.

It’s like a person who has been looking at the world through filters all his life, and after taking off the filters, he suddenly discovers that the world is actually like this.

Why would he believe in an unknown existence that brought endless pain and disaster to mankind? Is it just because the other party promised to ascend him to heaven and bring him endless glory and peace?
Why is he willing to give everything for the other person, why? Why?
Even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe such a promise, so why did he believe it?
The Warp is the waves of the sea of ​​souls. It is an objectively existing thing and the destination of the souls of all things. The truth of the Empire can fully explain it. Why should one be so paranoid and superstitious about the devil's instigation?

I was such a fool and a failure of my race.

When mortal rationality comes back online, they will find that what they have done is so ridiculous.

The so-called devout faith is nothing but deception and lies. Those filthy things just want to deceive humans in order to harvest souls and backstab the Lord of Humanity who is making a great sacrifice.

"No, how can I call such a great being a false emperor? What have I done, Emperor..." The calmness in his eyes was then filled with a raging wave of regret. Extreme self-blame and pain made his face distorted, as if the fog that had been covering their eyes had dissipated, revealing the truth that was too painful to look at.

"I am a shameful traitor. I am unforgivable. I am sorry."

After leaving his last words, the man rushed towards the silver-white metal building at full speed, and then crashed headfirst into the iron wall and died.

He had absolutely no reservations and chose death to atone for his sins with absolute repentance. Under the huge impact force, the hard skull shattered and exploded, and blood and brain matter scattered all over the ground like a fountain. The cultist who was full of remorse committed suicide in this way.

Even in death, his eyes were still open, staring at the crowd.

Luo Xi saw regret and warning in it. Never believe the lies of the subspace and don't be as stupid and ridiculous as him. There is no well-intentioned savior in this dark galaxy. Human beings can only rely on their own reason and courage to face the abomination.

Following the suicide of the first cultist, dozens of remaining death row inmates also ended their lives in various ways. They died inexplicably and in a miserable way, with their bodies lying in all directions, making one feel cold all over.

In addition to these cultists who chose to commit suicide, there were a few others who stood there blankly. When some robot servants came forward to test them, they were horrified to find that the conflict between their ideological imprints and their corrupted beliefs had caused irreversible damage to their brains.

When you open their brains, you will find that the original brain tissue has turned into a pile of tofu-like crumbs.

"They have become brain-dead vegetatives. It seems that the thought stamp does have a great resistance to the subspace."

Luo Xi concluded that under the influence of the ideological stamp, whether people are brainwashed or actively corrupted, they will wake up from it.

Of course, even though he has woken up, the impact of chaos corruption will not dissipate.

Even mortals with weak wills can still respond to the subspace with a rational attitude, understand it, and think about it after being stamped with the ideological imprint.

If all mortals in the entire solar system were to be ideologically stamped, then wouldn't there be no soil for the Chaos Cult to survive?
Those sewer rats are so tenacious that even though the Emperor's Guards and the assassins of the Court of Assassins have been constantly cleaning and eradicating the evil that grows from the shadows at the bottom of the hive city, they are still impossible to kill.

It is worth mentioning that even the home planet of mankind, where the throne world is located, is no different from other planets under the ancient and towering nest city. Hunger and poverty, ignorance and superstition are also rampant.

Various alien creatures, mutants, cultists and scavengers make up the underlying ecosystem, making it impossible to eradicate the filth and evil at the bottom of the hive.

The bottom of the hive city is like a mirror of human nature, which always reflects the ugliest side. Even if the dust on the surface of the mirror is wiped off, it will still reflect the original sin.

Luo Xi's thoughts wandered for a moment, until Sage Rand pushed his arm and he came back to his senses.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little shocked by the effect of the thought stamp." Luo Xi said, "In that case, let's stamp the thought stamp on the Sun Auxiliary Army."

"Our loyal guards already have strong wills. If they are assisted by the ideological seal, their wills will be truly unshakable."

"Perhaps even if faced with the demons of the warp, even mortals can remain firm in their hearts and face the malice from the High Heaven with courage."

Cleaning robots and servants cleaned up the mess together and cleared away the bloody corpses.

They will be treated as "dangerous goods in the subspace" and all traces of their existence will be completely erased. Even their burned ashes will have to undergo a final inspection by the Sisters of Silence.

Soon, a team of Solar Auxiliary Forces who had been informed of the content of the experiment entered the scene, and they would also receive the implantation of thought seals.
