Chapter 68: The End of the Age: Slaanesh
Vito opened his eyes, and the ancient dream disappeared. It was strange to say that he didn't even remember that he had that memory, but he just remembered it and recalled the ancient past. At that time, he felt that not long ago, But now it's more than 10,000 years ago.
Vito woke up on a chair, which was a comfortable leather seat. Gentle silver sand curtains fluttered around the windows and tables, and soft gauze undulated and swayed in the wind like waves.
This is a room with an elegant style. The Roman pillar bed is placed in the center of the large room. Milky white marble columns support the dome and the sky and the earth around it. The mosaic puzzle walls are painted with wonderful pictures. The floor is also made of the purest material. , made of the purest white marble.
Vito stood up. He had already put on a classical robe, which was a costume originating from the ancient Greek city-state of Terra, but it also had elements from the Roman Republic. A red scarf was on his shoulders. Extending down, surrounding the exposed chest.
He looked around this quaint room and walked to the large balcony not far away. On the garden-like terrace, Vito saw the true face of this place.
Outside the beautiful room is a coquettish scene, with weird and strange-shaped buildings all over the land. Those inverted pyramid structures and towering purple-black spiers go straight into the sky, and the dark purple earth and sky extend towards the end of the horizon.
Laughter and screams resounded in the city below, colorful neon lights flashed in the streets and alleys of the city, indulgence and never-ending carnivals were performed all the time in this city, and all kinds of things beyond human understanding Behavior and "art" can be seen everywhere here.
This is the paradise of indulgence, the source of desire, and the demonic realm of Slaanesh.
Vito looked towards the distance. There were many strange plants growing on the purple land, and the ever-changing urban agglomeration appeared in front of his eyes. This city was three-dimensional, suspended in a three-dimensional space, with layers arranged in suspension. The city cluster stretches upwards in layers on strange rocks.
In the lowest city below, chaos and pain are taking place there, and the closer you get to the top of the city, the more intense the carnival and pleasure are, like a boiling ocean of stimulating emotions.
Twisted whips between living bodies and solid bodies connect the floating islands to the earth, long black bridges connect islands to islands, and connect one indulgence paradise to another.
Here, Vito is located on the highest and largest floating island, where he can overlook the city and this strange city that has no possibility of existing in the physical universe.
This is the City of Eternal Night, this is Noticula, this is the Midnight Islands, and this is the kingdom of Phantom Queen Lilith.
Vito looked at the horizon in the distance. The six rings of Slaanesh were arranged and stretched around them. They were the six trials from the outside world leading to the palace of Slaanesh. Those trials included all the desires in the human heart.
Greed, gluttony, lust, power, vanity and laziness, the six desires make up the six trials. Each trial confuses the challengers who try to go to the location of Slaanesh. If they are lost in the six rings, wait Their fate is endless torment for their souls.
But Lily is not the master of the six rings of Slaanesh. She is not an emotional manifestation of Slaanesh, but all of them. She is the twin sister of Slaanesh. This is not a metaphor of Eldarad, but a description of fact.
At the same moment when Slaanesh's first cry destroyed the ancient Eldar empire and devoured their souls, Lilith, who was born almost at the same time as Slaanesh, was the first demon lord of Slaanesh and the first A succubus, the twin sister of Slaanesh.
She is the embodiment of everything about Slaanesh, an independent and unique incarnation of her, and that is why Lilith has her own kingdom, her own unique kingdom.
Her kingdom is close to the palace of Slaanesh himself, and from here Vitor can see Slaanesh's palace of desire in the distance, where she herself is.
Vito looked at the palace located among countless weird forests and gardens. When Vito was thinking about these questions, a pair of hands hugged him from behind, just like the same hand he had just entered the sea of souls.
Vito felt those slender hands sliding across his chest, and she pressed behind him, with her thin silver hair falling down from her arms.
Several small succubus tails slid up from his shoulders and waist. Vito smiled and held the hand on his chest, "Hello Lily, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
"Long enough for me." Lilith, the Phantom Queen and the Queen of all Slaanesh Succubi, said softly. Her hand went around Vito's arm, and she appeared in Vito's field of vision from the side. .
Her clothes are the same as those of the succubus, revealing and flexible. Her perfect waistline and body are only covered and covered by some exquisite gems or similar gorgeous silk, but the effect is equally mouth-watering.
Lilith came to Vito and clasped her hands on Vito's neck. Wearing high heels, she jumped up and gave Vito a deep kiss. Powerful magic suddenly rushed through Vito's mind. If it was Ordinary people may have completely lost their rationality and control at this moment.
They would surrender completely to the great demon of Slaanesh before them, surrendering their souls and bodies to her, but Vitor would not, he was not a mortal.
Lilith touched Vito's chest with her fingers teasingly, and her other hand was still around Vito's neck, "Dear, you want me? Since you took the initiative to find me."
Vito smiled and looked at the beautiful room behind him, "I don't remember this place in the Phantom Palace." "Of course you don't remember, I built it for you, I remember you like this ancient Terra style, the style of your hometown."
Lilith's silver hair like the galaxy slid down from her shoulders casually, and Vito's hand gently stroked the soft long hair, the silver hair was cold but made people feel comfortable and peaceful.
"Do you like it?" Lilith smiled at Vito, her smile was so beautiful, but Vito just responded with the same polite smile. He looked at the city below and shrugged slightly, "Your place is still exactly the same as before. Have you ever thought about changing it like here?"
"Hmm? Ah, no, those low-level demons and mortal believers below will need such a pyramid, but my dear, you don't need to climb these floating islands, on the contrary, all of this is mine and yours."
Lilith leaned her head on Vito's chest, and the latter subconsciously hugged her head with one hand. Lilith purred like a cat with satisfaction, her tail swayed around, bending and flexibly swinging, and she looked in a good mood.
"Ask you something." "What is it?"
She was in a good mood now, and Vito might have asked her for help directly, but Vito didn't plan to do that yet. He knew Lili wouldn't want that, and he had other problems.
Vito raised his head and looked at the psychedelic sky above the Slaanesh Demon Realm. The psychic sea of the subspace and the ancient Eldar world were like stars all over the sky.
"Did Abaddon ask you or your sister to join the Black Crusade again?" Vito asked. Lilith also raised her head slightly and glanced in the direction of Slaanesh. Her eyebrows slightly wrinkled and she showed an unhappy expression, but she quickly suppressed it.
"Yes, she and I both called." "What's your answer?" "No." "The original words?" "The original words were to get out."
Vito smiled bitterly, he touched Lilith's silver hair and smiled helplessly, "You guys just talked to the current "Warmaster" directly like this?"
"He is the Warmaster. What does it have to do with me? What does it have to do with us? Only the guys in the Black Legion treat him as the Warmaster. Not to mention that the other legions just follow him to the party."
Lilith seemed full of disdain, and a little angry, "Me and her, we do whatever we want, we go if we want to, and we don't go if we don't want to. No one can make us do anything."
"Honestly, why didn't your sister go? You guys liked this big carnival before." Vito smiled jokingly, Lilith looked at Vito with almost murderous eyes, she was jealous, it can be seen that this is the case.
Vito patted her little head in front of him with a joking smile, "Okay, don't be so stubborn, seriously, are you really not going?" "No." "What's the reason? The real reason."
Lilith muttered a few words, she shrugged slightly with disdain, "This expedition is strongly supported by Khorne, and many of his demons will participate, so we won't go."
Ah, the ancient contradictions of the four gods, the long history of Slaanesh and Khorne, a long and almost eternal contradiction, is really interesting, even demons can always cause such problems, it must be said that they are indeed the embodiment of the emotions of humans and intelligent species.
Vito stroked her shoulders, the soft and somewhat cold shoulders, he looked at Lilith in front of him who was a little unhappy, she turned her head to look at the city and seemed to be thinking about something, but Vito knew that it was pretending, to be honest, she and Slaanesh have never been good at pretending emotions.
"Does she know I'm here?" Vito asked, Lilith scratched Vito's back with her fingernails, or claws, unhappily.
"I feel the same way as her, of course she knows."
She was angry, and it was obvious.
"I came to you for help, you, only you." Vito's words aroused Lilith's interest, and she turned her head evilly and smiled.
"Oh~ No, to her?" "Didn't I say that? And besides, you know I don't like your sister. I have always disliked her and some of her subordinates, and I really don't like them."
Vito said almost viciously, Lilith turned her head slightly and shrugged, "If you mean Lucius, he is not here, in fact I haven't seen him for a while."
"You hate him because..." "He betrayed one of my best friends and caused them to pay with their lives." Vito almost growled, and Lilith could feel his strong emotions, the anger could not be concealed, and he did not intend to conceal it.
This is the demonic domain of Slaanesh, he can't, and doesn't intend to hide his emotions.
Lilith put her palm on Vito's chest, and the pleasant touch calmed the anger at once. She is very good at fluctuating human emotions.
"I'm sorry about Tarvitz and them, Vito, I..." "You don't need to apologize, it's not your fault."
Vito's face reappeared with a smile, "Let's get back to the point, I need your help." "Yeah, I'm listening."
Lilith smiled like a little girl, as if she was showing off to someone, and Vito probably knew who she was showing off to.
"I'm looking for an artifact, from the Eldar. I got the news that the thing is on a planet of the ancient Eldar Empire called Sil.Vak.Lias. Wow, the names they gave are really magical."
Lilith smiled charmingly, "It's that simple? Just let me take you there."
Vito smiled slightly and shook his head. "This time is different. I need to take my friends with me. Those four idiots, the guy driving the boat, and a boatload of people. This is the Empire's Inquisitor business."
Vito said, stroking the silky long hair, "So you need to go to the physical universe to help me. You need a false identity and a reasonable reason to appear."
Lilith showed an interested smile. It was rare. Since something could interest her so much, she said, "Disguise your identity? Well, my demons used to do it. I have never done such a novel thing myself." "
"Ha, then you're in luck. What identity do you want?" "Yeah."
Lilith hummed and leaned forward to kiss Vito again. She smiled in front of Vito, and her warm breath blew on Vito's face, almost as fragrant as perfume.
"Well, an Inquisitor?" "Demon Tribunal?" "I like the name, that's it."
Vito thought of a proverb in his mind at this moment, aliens come out of the Alien Court, and demons come out of the Demon Court. It seems that this is not just a joke.
"I heard that Nurgle's men are causing trouble near Cadia. You can act as an Inquisitor to fight them locally and seek support. Then contact me and I will convince them to join you in Cadia. And it’s closer to the Eye of Terror.”
"When the time comes, I will need you to be the navigator and cooperate with me to brag about some magical things. It sounds so awesome that the Inquisition secretly came to scare them. By the way, you can hug a ship of people so that you will not be taken seriously by your fellow demons. Eat snacks.”
Lilith smiled and let go of Vito's arm. She walked to the side, curled up her tail, wrapped Vito's arm and pulled him to the bed.
Lilith grabbed his hand and asked him to unbutton her dispensable clothes with his own hands. The exquisite decorations fell to the ground, and her perfect figure was exposed in front of Vito.
She sat on the bed and looked at Vito with a seductive attitude, her charming eyes shining with joy, "Before the next date, let's start this one?"
Vito smiled and unbuttoned his robe.
"Of course, I'd be happy to."
