Chapter 480 The Elephant in the Room - The Magic of Destiny
"Primarch... No, does Terra have a relevant army building plan?"
Alan subconsciously looked for a legal basis for this matter, but then gave up this naive idea.
The number of Astartes that can be produced by this list of materials has obviously exceeded the control limit of the Terra lords.
No, it's not just the mortal leader. Once such a large-scale armed force appears in the world, I'm afraid even the Ten Thousands of Soldiers in the Throne Court will have to avoid it.
This is definitely not a crazy product of a plan by a mortal leader. Only those who have the confidence and prestige to suppress and drive these Astartes are those who were once the Emperor's Children.
According to the earliest time this list was produced, and considering the rulers of the empire at that time, the person who can formulate this plan is also locked on a certain person.
"The Primarch knows about this, right?" Alan's tone is still calm, but those who are familiar with him know that this is already a manifestation of his nervousness.
The development of the situation obviously exceeded his scope of handling, and the reason why he was nervous was that the instigator had long left the stage of the Empire, and no matter who discovered this problem in the Empire today, they would eventually pass it on to the Primarch because they could not handle it.
But is the Primarch omnipotent?
Of course not, the Primarch could not solve all problems, he was just the best choice for mortals to shirk responsibility after they were unable to solve the problem.
A Primarch is indeed of great significance to the Empire. He may be able to suppress the Terra Lords for a short period of time, or even temporarily take over the government when the Empire is in crisis, and unite all the forces that can be united to solve the crisis.
But in the context of no crisis, his influence is limited to his own bloodline. Let alone the complicated relationship between the State Religion and the State Council, I am afraid that even other warbands that are descendants of the Astartes Legion will not buy his account.
What about Galvin? A brand new Primarch, a Primarch who has never participated in the Great Crusade and has never had the opportunity to root his own power in the local area, will he be able to control such a large legion?
And this legion is not his bloodline! I'm afraid that even suppression is impossible?
You have to know that a Codex Astartes requires a long debate among several Primarchs before it can be finally implemented. What about the military construction that is more serious and involves core interests?
In today's world where the Empire maintains a state of acquiescence to the de facto independence of the 500 worlds of Ultramar, can anyone really solve the problem left by that person without damaging the interests of the Empire and not using a bloody civil war as the final solution?
Although Allen doesn't care about the current state of the Empire, he also maintains a pessimistic view in the face of such a serious situation.
"Primarch..." Constantine's eyes became distant, as if he was trapped in the memory of the past.
"Of course he knew, and he knew it earlier than you think..."
——
Time traced back in Constantine's memory, all the way back to the time when the Battle of Janmorro just ended.
This is a memorable time point, because although this battle is destined to be hidden behind history and never see the light of day, it has actually changed the fate of countless people and even the entire Empire.
The impact of Calvin's appearance on the universe reached another peak in the Battle of Janmoro.
He not only indirectly changed the direction of the original "First Battle of Armageddon", but also directly changed the layout of the gods and even the chaos behind it in the entire universe by destroying the "Chaos Octagon".
On the Octagon, the complete cycle that originally represented Chaos' complete victory over Order, the complete mastery of the eight powers of the Warp, and the positions of the eight gods behind it is no longer the destined fate in this universe;
And as the Emperor and other loyal primarchs who confront the Chaos Gods and represent the fate of mankind, they no longer only see countless possibilities of being wiped out at the end of their fate, and only have the final fate of becoming evil gods.
The two most original forces of Order and Chaos, in the universe, like ouroboros, devour each other, transform, dynamically, and perpetually, although they still maintain an absolute disadvantage;
But it at least solves the problem of existence from zero to one again, allowing Order to exist again on the core symbol of the universe, rather than completely returning to the eternal darkness of Chaos.
Its influence is far-reaching, because despair is no longer the absolute color of this universe, and its influence is immediate, because the fate of countless heroes surrounding the Emperor and mankind has also become new with this change.
This possibility is embodied in specific people, that is, in the depths of the endless warp, the shadow in the shadow finally found a trace of its own support as a human being;
That is, in the depths of the webway leading to endless space, the white figure finally found the will and possibility to fight again in the endless hunting and thinking;
That is, the soul that exists in the mysterious place between reality and the warp curtain, struggling repeatedly in the boundary between life and death, once again has the hope of resurrection under the loosening of fate;
That is, the curse on the Son of Hope, which was supposed to be solved by the Emperor himself, will not be reduced to being imposed by the power of other civilized races, thus losing the integrity of mankind and letting the fate of racial revival be shared by others...
At that time, Calvin, who had just returned from the Extreme Star Region, did not know that his existence would affect the fate of so many people.
He just ignored the opposition of the people around him, forcibly suppressed the injuries left in the war, and boarded the Silver Dawn, the Queen of Glory battleship that had just been unsealed from Titan, and headed straight for the Krieg Industrial Alliance in the Storm Star Region.
This is certainly not because Calvin did not want to rest, but Constantine, who was far away in the Krieg Industrial Galaxy and protected by the Stasis Field, had reached the limit that the existing technology could no longer maintain.
"Young man, have you heard of eternal life in the cloud?"
This sentence was the first question Constantine asked Calvin when they first met, and it was at that time that he had his first understanding of the ideals of this unknown mechanical priest.
And "eternal life is a gift, but also a destiny." is the biggest sigh that this old soul gave to Calvin after a long struggle and failed efforts.
Calvin understood the melancholy and unwillingness behind this sigh, and he knew that the failure of this old soul was not due to his will and talent, but simply because fate did not favor him.
He once rejected the plan proposed by Calvin, because the choice given by Calvin at that time was tantamount to asking Constantine to give up his faith;
And now the Primarch has to save his best friend again, because the pure land of souls now is no longer a place of faith that belongs only to Calvin himself.
As for the mysterious person hiding on Mars and his huge plan, both Constantine and Calvin actually had a sense of it.
The former's understanding of that person came from an accidental opportunity thousands of years ago. During a visit of the Omen Order to Mars, the two discussed the knowledge and practice of eternal life in the cloud;
The latter's relationship with that person is actually closer. Since the fateful mutation on the black ship "Wandering Band", his figure has been within the observation of that person.
Later, during the transformation operation on Titan, his shadow was also behind the "holy blood" sent by the Imperial Guards, because it was that person's understanding of the Primarch that allowed the prophecy of the Throne Court to find a clear target.
And the secret material agreement between them and Mars that Calvin discovered on the Heper Forge World was just an opportunity for him to officially find the existence of that person.
Fate is so wonderful. The fate of one person is a thread, but the fate of multiple people is like a net.
Although that person's help to Calvin may be just out of simple kindness.
But the magic of fate is that after he helped Calvin casually that year, this Primarch who should not exist in fate finally began to have an unexpected boost to his plan after many obstacles...
