Chapter 844, Drakefels the Immortal
"Around 1800 in the Imperial Calendar, Drakenfels the Immortal led an army of undead to dispatch and almost slaughtered half of the Duchy of Palaon. He just wanted to harvest enough blood tax." Luo Jia looked at him without any trouble. The taboo book obtained from the Cathedral of Justice in Brunswick, the capital of the empire, with the help of dust: "According to the book, the people under the rule of vampires need to pay three kinds of taxes, bone tax, blood tax and poll tax."
"This immortal is a necromancer?" The emperor looked at Luo Jia. Luo Jia learned a lot from the residents of the village. Originally, the news of the immortal Drakefels was top secret, but before the empire After defeating Drakenfels, Prince Elector Oswald told everyone about the immortal, so Luo Jia got very detailed information: "It is said that he can Drive Chaos Daemons and undead armies at the same time."
"Degenerate," said the Emperor icily.
"About 2470 in the Imperial Calendar, Prince Oswald of Ostland decided to form a team to personally destroy the Eternal Drakefels in the Eternal Dragon's Rock." Luo Jia took out a scroll and browsed The above message: "He quickly found some good hands, a Britannian knight... not the Holy Grail, two dwarf rangers, a thief... and a female vampire, a dancing girl and a few unrelated characters, That's how it went."
"A gnat can shake a tree, but courage is admirable." The emperor nodded slightly, and he was most interested in the immortals: "The immortals are not so easy to be defeated. If you want to kill the immortals completely, the only way to... go on, Luo Chia."
"Prince Oswald and his team paid a huge price, but he miraculously finally defeated Drakefels... It's just that he felt that he did destroy the body of the immortal, and the world shook instantly, the old world Hundreds of undead and demonic creatures masquerading as humans were revealed, many castles sheltered by magic in dark corners were revealed, and the prince and his retinue were considered heroes throughout the empire."
"..." The emperor didn't speak, Luo Jia guessed that the emperor had already guessed the ending, and said directly: "But the prince didn't actually defeat the immortal, he just destroyed the body of the immortal, in fact, he has been defeated The Eternal is possessed, and Drakenfels is dead, but it hasn't disappeared, just like we all know that the Necrons are also dead things."
"The prince has been famous in the old world for twenty-five years by virtue of his great feats. He is hailed as a human hero. After twenty-five years, he began to get tired, or the immortals began to get tired, and he decided to play a big game. In 2495 of the Imperial Calendar, he started his plan, he wanted to gather all the high-ranking officials of the entire empire, including the electors and all the high-ranking nobles, and then wiped them all out!"
"The plan took years to prepare."
"Finally, at the moment when the plan was about to be realized, the prayer of the prince's soul finally attracted the attention of the gods of the old world. The scene was torn apart, the Koniswald family, the Elector's family of Oster, became extinct, and the Imperial Emperor...Governor Luitpold appointed the head of the Bull Knights, Vamir von Zhukov, as the new Osterland. Electors, the Zhukov family has become the new Electors family." Luo Jia put down the scroll: "As far as the current information is concerned, that's it."
"There is no doubt, another Ol-Payson-like character, the difference is that Ol-Payson has always relied on his strange psionic abilities and the ability to travel through time and space to find a way out for the future of mankind, and this immortal , most likely invested in Chaos and used psychic energy to do evil for his own power and desire, but like all Immortals, he is also powerful, strong enough to use Chaos Demons." The Emperor made a judgment: "He Came into this world before the Iron Man Rebellion,
At that time, our civilization was as bright as stars. "
"Golden Age? Iron Man Rebellion? Father, can you tell me something about that era? Aren't you a witness of the Golden Age?" Luo Jia was obviously very interested in this.
"A long time ago, it is full of memories. I once thought that human beings would go to the road of mastering the universe and conquer all things in this way. I was a bystander at the time." The emperor's tone rarely brought some emotional color: " You have seen the "Great Game" of the Chaos Gods in the chaotic space of the Eye of Terror, right? Endless war?"
"Yes, the super-intensive war lasted for ten thousand years. The number of Chaos Demons under the command of the Four Gods is endless, tens of billions, or even more. Every day, several demon worlds are destroyed in the war, but more Demons will always emerge from the domain of the Four Gods." Luo Jia nodded.
"The war during the iron man's rebellion is even more terrifying than the great game of the four gods in the realm of chaos." The emperor closed his eyes: "The battle of the iron man is an indescribable, incomprehensible, and inexplicable battle of the gods. It's hard to describe in words, you just need to know that a Titan from the golden age is enough to smash you into a sieve, or crush you to death."
"Then what about the Spirit Race Empire? I heard that the Spirit Race Empire is stronger than our golden age?" Luo Jia was very interested.
"The Eldar Empire was indeed stronger than humans at that time, but they had fallen into the quagmire of hedonism at that time, but it is undeniable that if the Eldar Empire hadn't participated in the Iron Man Rebellion in the end, they would have helped Just as the Death Army of the Eldar race intends to wake up Guilliman for the purpose of self-preservation, humans still have greater troubles." The emperor said casually: "Jena, the god of death, is the last hope of the Eldar race. Helpless, the fate of mankind is now tied to the Death God Army, at least until we solve the problem of chaos, the Death God Army is the force we want to win over, and the power of the Spirit Race God of Death Jena can directly hurt Slaanesh himself."
"But the Spirit Race is not reliable. They are a group of treacherous guys. The Death God Army has always acted according to their prophecies." Luo Jia emphasized: "They are not reliable allies!"
"You still don't understand? Prophecy can be manipulated, Lorgar." The emperor said coldly: "The peace treaty between me and Jena is still valid for the time being. Before the problem of chaos is solved, compared to Jena, the god of death, the god of laughter Xile Gao is a waste, he will only take the most conservative action carefully when there is a way out."
"Well, after all, we are the only ones left in the galaxy." Luo Jia shook his head: "Oh, and the ribs of the Necrons, a group of eternally hungry bugs, and mushrooms that can't be killed cleanly."
The two of them had already crossed the mountains after a few chats, and now they were close to the border between the Empire and Britannia.
Right in front of them, the eerie and terrifying appearance of Dragon Rock Castle of the Eternal, the typical Gothic architectural style and the terrible many broken sculptures, appeared in front of the Primarch of the Word Bearers and the Lord of Men.
However, this place is not a peaceful place, and even a little too lively.
Right at the gate of Longyan the Eternal, a three-way battle is going on.
Beastmen now occupy the deserted imperial barracks at the gate of the castle. A large group of horned beasts, bighorned beasts, and ferocious minotaurs are facing the enemy under the orders of a beast king and a giant horned bull. Occupying a powerful terrain, the enemies who are attacking onslaught unleashed a rain of arrows.
On the other side, an astonishing number of Skaven swarms were attacking the camp of the Beastmen with all their strength. They were numerous, but they were in disarray. The plague catapults were desperately pouring out giant bombs soaked in the disease.
"Pestilon! Pestilen!" A whole team of plague monks charged towards the Beastmen while howling crazily. Red blotches all over his body, turning into puddles of ichor in pain and corruption.
If no other forces joined, it would only be a matter of time before the Beastman Dazhai was reduced to ruins under the attack of the Skaven. The Skaven's attack was very ferocious.
However, another army was at war with the other two sides at the same time. The greenskin tribe from the Gray Mountains—the Bonebreaker tribe attacked the Skaven and the beastmen at the same time. The Thousand Greenskins rushed towards the Skaven and the Beastmen like this, they didn't care what each other was, they had to have a good time before talking, and whoever stood up had his turn to speak after a punch!
"Go up, Lorgar." The emperor watched the situation coldly: "Deal with them."
"???" Luo Jia looked at his father in confusion: "I'm going? What about you?"
"Horus also asked me similar questions." The Emperor said coldly: "You will deal with the enemies outside the castle, and I will deal with the enemies inside the castle."
"You keep the easy ones for yourself, and the difficult ones for me?" Luo Jia said dissatisfied immediately: "Very well, I knew a long time ago that you only have nineteen sons."
"It's twenty-one now!" The emperor had already mobilized his supreme mighty power like a huge golden wave, and began to prepare for the teleportation.
"You don't like to fight side by side with me, so why did you call me here?" Luo Jia was very angry: "Besides, I'm still missing one!"
"Or we can change it, you come to experience the organs in the Castle of the Eternal and all kinds of evil spell seals in the depths of the ground, as well as a chaotic demon who leaked his real name and is imprisoned by the Eternal and may be released at any time? "The emperor was expressionless.
"Leave it to me! Father!" Luo Jia immediately said respectfully, "I will solve the external problems for you."
Before the emperor could say another word, he disappeared from the scene in a flash of golden light, leaving Luo Jia alone.
The Word Bearers Primarch nodded, and the expression on his face became serious.
Many people think that Luo Jia is a magic stick - even he himself thinks he is, Luo Jia often mixes with Angron, but Luo Jia's character is completely different from Angron's, Angron is reckless, Luo Jia Jiaji is heavy, Angron is emotional, Luo Jia is far-sighted, and carefully plans his goals. He is a Primarch who lives by faith. He can risk his life to save Angron, but he can "this is for your own good." "The attitude encouraged and even designed Angron to become the demon prince of Khorne in the end.
Now, he spent 10,000 years to force the emperor to admit that there is no state religion. Luo Jia's goal has been achieved. He squeezed the golden double-headed eagle scepter in his hand and carefully checked the battle situation. The Emperor liked... hated even, but the Emperor had to use him now, and this was his chance.
And he came to the conclusion that he worshiped his father, the lord of mankind, the Emperor more fanatically than before, he wanted to be the emperor's scepter, he wanted to be, to be the emperor's tool man, he and It was different from Angron who refused to serve the Emperor again, from Guilliman who was doubtful and shaken but still took the burden, from Jonson who was full of weird and dark thoughts, and from the one who loved his father sincerely. The Sanguinius is also different, he is willing to be a tool man, and he is willing to kneel down and give everything.
The most desperate of the three-way battle is obviously the Skaven. This Skaven clan is equipped with mercenaries from the Plague Clan, namely the Plague Monk Legion and the Gas Throwing Legion. They are almost no matter the cost. Thousands of slave rats and clan rats charged desperately towards the beast man's Dazhai with only a knife and a spear.
The Beastmen occupy the terrain advantage. This Beastman tribe is a veteran of mountain warfare. They have deployed the entire Dazhai along the mountain road of the Eternal Dragon Rock Castle. The camp built with simple wood is not very strong, but it is tight. Grasp the advantage of the terrain and divide into many lines of defense.
The lines of defense and the rugged terrain ensured that the Beastmen would not be attacked in all directions when facing the Skaven Ratmen's rat wave attack. Many traps were also set. For example, once the Skaven broke through a line of defense, the Beastmen behind the line of defense would swarm up under the leadership of the Minotaur, repelling the Skaven through the advantages of chaotic warfare and hand-to-hand combat. But to deal with the green skins, they will change their tactics, that is, to lure the enemy deep and ambush to win.
But it is still a matter of time before they are overwhelmed by the Skaven ratmen, and the crude camps and wooden walls of the beastmen are really no match for the plague catapults.
As for the greenskins, Luo Jia watched for a long time and thought that the greenskins were playing for fun, and there was no strategy at all, but the cunning goblin warlord did not send out wolf cavalry, Luo Jia immediately judged that the goblin warlord was pinning his hopes on the last Use wolf cavalry to end opponents, and if the battle situation is unfavorable, you can also flexibly mobilize troops.
The combat styles of these three races are very obvious. The Skaven rely on high technology and miscellaneous fish to pile up.
Beastmen know how to take advantage of terrain and disrupt battles to win in chaos.
As for the greenskins, they seem to be out of order because they are not looking for victory, but for a good fight. Besides, the cunning goblins still have a reserve force, and they can rush out to end the battle at any time...or run away immediately.
Interesting, Lorgar understood. The Primarch of the Word Bearers began to chant the spell. He clenched his scepter tightly. The golden spiritual energy surrounded Lorgar's body, and an invisible force field enveloped the entire battlefield.
The battlefield in the three-way battle became extremely violent in an instant. Whether it was the Skaven, Beastmen or Greenskins, they all fell into a state called extreme frenzy in an instant. They almost lost the ability to think. After the reverberation from the subspace blew across the entire battlefield, the three armies immediately launched a general offensive.
"Waaaagh! To fuck Gomo!"
"For the Horned Rat! Yesyes!"
"...Kill...Chop! Eat...Meat!!!"
During the melee, all three parties suffered heavy losses. The Minotaur troop of the Beastmen was finally dispatched. The monster troop over four meters in height held two battle axes, slashed and devoured slave rats and clan rats wantonly, and the Greenskin tribe The wolf cavalry attacked the Skaven army formation from the flanks, and the green-skinned boys fought with the plague monk with machetes in their hands.
Luo Jia waited for about twenty minutes, and he felt that the time was almost up. The Primarch of the Word Bearers took a deep breath of air, and the golden light around him flickered back and forth. The next second, Luo Jia's body rushed out like an arrow from the string.
"I am the divine emperor's decree!"
"I, will destroy all uncleanness!!!"
The golden net of light descends on the battlefield, and the frenzy of destructive psychic energy belonging to Luo Jia arrives.
Two hours later, Lorgar and the Emperor joined in Dragon Rock of the Eternal.
The whole castle was full of charred corpses of dark creatures. The emperor with platinum flames burning in his fists stood in front of a sealed bookcase, stepping on the scorched head of the Chaos Demon, looking at the According to the above records, Luo Jia was covered in minced meat and blood, and on his golden double-headed eagle scepter hung the smashed head of a Skaven warlord: "What did you find, father?"
Lorgar noticed that the Chaos Demon was really dead. It was scorched by the Emperor's power and could not return to the warp.
"The books have been removed by humans, but the module is still there. This is the entropy engine." The emperor held a technology module in his hand: "Sure enough, Drakefels is an immortal who came to this world in the golden age. It is a war machine of the golden age, something that has been lost for 20,000 years, no wonder the Skaven and beast people outside want to compete for the inheritance in the castle... This time our harvest is unimaginably rich."
"What is it for?" Luo Jia was very interested.
"It's used to tow... or ignite an entire planet." The emperor took out a mechanical glasses device and hung it on his right eye, scanning and identifying the already blurred STC module: "The efficiency is higher than that of the cyclone torpedo By more than an order of magnitude, I guess Grand Sage Belisarius-Caule would love this gift very much, and Speyer would use it against Abaddon's vengeful spirit."
"Your newly appointed Cadian High Lord Admiral?"
"Give you three hours, Lorgar, let's turn the whole castle over and find everything of value! Then, let's purify the castle together. The chief female courtier of Lane needs a new assembly headquarters."
"yes!"
