Chapter 384 The Final Battle

The emperor was afraid to let his son see what he was like now.

The emperor has lost his humanity; the emperor is losing everything.

With one small action of his, his humanity is being worn away by some force, replaced by the divinity that the emperor is gradually returning to.

The emperor's divinity was a special power within him. In the past, he could barely maintain a pitiful balance by relying on his remaining consciousness.

And now.

The balance within his body has been disrupted, and the balance between the two sides is rapidly deteriorating. As a result, the divinity within him is quickly squeezing out and eroding his humanity.

Even the Imperial Guards standing around the Emperor could clearly sense the Emperor's psychic energy, a cold yet violently destructive force that seemed to be rapidly increasing every second.

The Emperor's spiritual energy, even in the living saints resurrected by the Emperor, the Emperor's power contained within those people became exceptionally cold and terrifying.

This is the extent of the changes that occur when an emperor loses his humanity.

"Go to the Star Gate"

The Emperor's voice was almost the last to emanate from beneath his golden throne.

A bloodline imbued with the consciousness of an emperor emanated terrifying and horrifying spiritual energy, almost coalescing into a human form.

Ever since the Emperor was wounded by Horus in the battle, he sat directly on the Golden Throne. The Emperor on the Golden Throne was almost unable to speak. And after ten thousand years of faith, every time he spoke, it became extremely difficult. No one could truly hear his voice. Even if he wanted to make a sound, all they heard was the Emperor's painful voice as he sat on the Golden Throne.

This was almost the last time the emperor issued his own orders.

The fact that the emperor himself spoke out already indicated that the most urgent moment had arrived.

The Imperial Guard, commanded by Trajan, was absolutely obedient to the Emperor's orders.

When they heard the Emperor demand that they enter the stargate to Morocco, which the Emperor had mentioned, they understood that this place was absolutely of great importance to the Empire.

Trajan could not disobey the Emperor's orders, but he was also worried about the Emperor's safety, since there were far too many people who wanted to kill him.

If the Imperial Guard were to leave, countless warriors lurking within the Imperial Palace would suddenly emerge and launch a terrifying attack on the Emperor. This would happen countless times every day, regardless of race, as they would do everything in their power to prevent the Emperor from continuing to exist.

"Commander Trajan, protecting the Emperor should be our primary task."

"This is what the Emperor has asked us to do, and we should put it first now. What the Emperor asks us to do must be the most important thing."

The stargate of Morocco.
Although Trajan never accompanied the emperor into the area, he knew of it from the legend of Constantine, the first commander of the Imperial Guard, who was hailed as the most powerful in the empire.

The Emperor stole the divine fire from there, thus bringing fire to humanity throughout the galaxy. There, the Emperor brought humanity a future and hope, and now he is sending them back to that place, perhaps to reignite humanity's flame once more.

"Let those Space Marines go."

Although they never recognized or even discriminated against the Space Marines, they knew that only those Space Marines could help them alleviate the pressure they were under.

"That's all."

Trajan entrusted the Silent Sisters with a drop of blood, imbued with his personal consciousness, which the Emperor himself had given them. This was because if the ordinary Custodians were to escort it, they would likely be corrupted by the violent divine energy emanating from this drop of blood and ultimately lose their own consciousness.

Therefore, a team consisting of the Sisters of Silence and the Imperial Guard was needed to personally escort the document.

The Imperial Guards had not emerged from underground for a long time; most of them were confined to the emperor's palace, protecting him.

But this time, a contingent of Imperial Guards and six Silent Sisters emerged from the depths of the Emperor's palace, something that had never been seen before.

Even the mortals standing near the Imperial Palace were utterly shocked when they saw the Imperial Guards and the Silent Sisters solemnly carrying something as they emerged from the darkness of the Imperial Palace.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

One by one, ordinary soldiers knelt on one knee to express their highest respect to the other party.

"It's the Imperial Guard!"

"The Imperial Guards are out!"

The high-ranking officer of the Imperial Guard leading the way simply led his men past the group. The Imperial Guard's deployment had already attracted the attention of the Empire, and they had summoned the Supreme Commander of the Empire's Navy, from the Imperial Naval Administrative Office, one of the high-ranking councils within the Empire. The Imperial High-Ranking Council had been abolished after Makado's return, and subsequently became an administrative council subordinate to Makado, its authority greatly diminished.

Now, after carrying out a small part of reforms within the empire, the plan to continue reforms has been halted, and instead, a new temporary organizational structure has been established. Makado is essentially the core brain of all organizational centers; all data will be, and must be, processed through his brain before being uploaded to various locations.

"This is the Emperor's order."

Senior officers of the Imperial Guard would convert the Emperor's orders into an informational form.

This was the Emperor's order, and it was the first time the Emperor had truly issued an order directly to these people without going through anyone else.

For the past ten thousand years, the emperor has not personally issued a single order.

Countless people doubted whether the emperor still existed or had long since disappeared. It was only with the help of the state religion, which worshipped the emperor as a god, that such doubts were reduced.

However, it also left the empire with a greater drawback: the massive amount of faith piled up on the emperor, making him a god, meant that the more he was worshipped, the less likely he was to appear and let ordinary people see his appearance.

Now, as the emperor issues his first order, those before him are not trusted, but rather immediately suspicious.

What are you suspecting?

The Imperial Guards, seeing these utterly disloyal Imperial officers, wished they could just kill them all.

In the past, when the Emperor first sat on the Golden Throne, the Imperial Guard could still convey his decrees. However, after the wars with wild beasts, the Emperor's exhaustion and suffering increased day by day, so his orders were rarely conveyed.

By this point in time, more than five thousand years had passed, and the emperor had not uttered a single word or issued a single command.

It's one thing that they can't listen, and another thing is that they can never get the most accurate answer from the Emperor, because every time the Emperor speaks, he carries countless complex messages, and only a very small number of people can truly understand what the Emperor is saying.

"I'm sorry, sir, we have always been loyal to the Empire."

"I don't care what conflicts exist between you humans and Space Marines. This is the Emperor's order, and you must obey the Emperor's commands."

The Imperial Guard knew that there were many conflicts between these humans and Space Marines, but most of them were conflicts between high-ranking officials who attacked each other in order to seize power.

But this is the future of the human empire. No matter how great the conflict between you, you must suppress it now.

What era are we in now, still thinking about vying for power?

The Imperial Guard obeys the Emperor's orders and is absolutely committed to making the future of the human Empire their top priority. Even when irreconcilable conflicts arise between humans and Space Marines, and when racial issues are involved, they stand on the side of humanity. They are fully aware of their role in this world.

"Yes, my lord."

Upon receiving the Emperor's order, these men dared not linger. Next, they were to relay the message, and someone from Makado had already gone to inform him. After conveying the Emperor's message, these Imperial Guards immediately returned to the depths of the Emperor's palace.

They were absolutely unwilling to leave the Emperor's palace, even though the outside world was in chaos and the country had even besieged Terra.

As long as they haven't breached Terra's palace, they'll remain calm and collected.

After receiving the Emperor's administrative order, Macardo merely composed himself slightly before focusing his attention on what he needed to do.

Now, his most important task is to carry out the Emperor's orders.

He knew that the Emperor had gone to the world of Morocco, because the Emperor had consulted him for a long time before entering Morocco. They had even inquired about the world of Morocco in advance. After inquiring, they learned that the first war general of the Empire was Olpeson. However, Olpeson also sacrificed himself in the great rebellion of Horus. Although he had the constitution of an immortal, Olpeson was killed by Horus's demon sword in that war.

Makado's mind was racing. He could clearly sense the problems the Empire was currently facing. Morocco seemed to be the most important place in the Empire.

If they were to attack Morocco directly, it would take them a lot of time.

Moreover, it may not be effective. On the contrary, if we attack the enemy's core area directly, as before, it may produce some unexpected results.

This is a famous ancient war theory on Terra.

Thinking this through, Makado's brain processed in an instant, and various tactics and weapon configurations came to mind.

Now, it's time to implement it.

"Boom!!!"
