Malcador Has a Wife??
"Master, the expansion pack for attacking Commorragh is ready. Would you like to take a look?"
Xi Ling said to Qin Yun.
Upon learning that the players were planning revenge against Commorragh,
Qin Yun immediately called Xi Ling over and asked her to help him create a new expansion pack to guide the players.
By the way, it's also a way to make my presence known.
Otherwise, with such a huge commotion, the fact that the operations team remained silent would seem like a sign of their incompetence!
Xi Ling's speed was as fast as ever.
The relevant information was completed in just over ten minutes, and even the war rewards were calculated.
"Bring it here, let me see it."
A light screen suddenly appeared in front of Qin Yun, detailing the contents of the new expansion pack.
[Announcement: The Expansion Pack "Revenge" is Coming Soon]
[Synopsis: What should have been a simple mission to retrieve the remains of fallen soldiers in the War of the Webway unexpectedly leads to the discovery of an ancient and evil force— the Dark Eldar.]
The Dark Eldar are remnants of the old Aeldari Empire, and are one of many Aeldari branches, including the Craftworld Aeldari and the Exodite Aeldari.
However, unlike other Aeldari who have come to terms with reality, the Dark Eldar still cling to their past glory and consider themselves the masters of the Milky Way.
To escape the corruption of the Chaos Dark God and to replenish his soul,
They transformed into bandits, plundering people from all races across the Milky Way, enslaving these poor souls, torturing them with the most vicious methods, and reveling in the pain and despair of their victims.
The human civilization with the largest territory and the most people became their primary target for plunder.
It's time for these guys to pay the price for those innocent deaths.
[Expansion Pack Content: Effective immediately, the Imperium of Man officially declares war on the Commorragh.]
First: The command of this war will be the responsibility of the Departmento Munitorum. Player Chapter that wish to participate can register through the Departmento Munitorum and be included in the command sequence.
Second: The Imperial Bank will issue War Bonds in the name of Terra to support this massive campaign.
Third: Attacking Commorragh will bring First Company of missions that players without Chapter can participate in and earn Warfare Score.
After the expansion ends, Warfare Score can be used to purchase rare weapons, industrial materials, factories, or planets, and can be converted into Merit Points to advance your rank in the Imperium Command hierarchy.
[Thought for the Day: +++ Don't always think about what the Emperor does for you; think more about what you do for the Emperor.]
After Qin Yun checked it over and confirmed that there were no problems,
Let Xi Ling set the time to 6 PM sharp and publish it on the official website.
Aside from the attack on Commorragh
Qin Yun also noticed something else.
That was the blessing that the Chaos Dark God Khorne bestowed upon the weapon in "Wrestling Khorne".
"We should ask Old Man Emperor if there are any risks involved."
Qin Yun was very vigilant.
Being blessed by Chaos Dark God is no small matter.
If we let our guard down even for a moment, something terrible could happen.
Throughout Warhammer history, many have been corrupted by weapons imbued with Warp power, ultimately falling into depravity and siding with the Chaos Gods.
The most typical example is Fulgrim.
The Laer Blade, which resided within the Keeper of Secrets, exploited Fulgrim's arrogance and perfectionism, leading to his downfall.
Considering the threat of the Chaos Gods,
Without delay, Qin Yun immediately boarded a gunboat and headed to the Throne Room of the Imperial Palace.
As always, the gunboats were driven directly to the front of the Throne Room.
Seeing Qin Yun come down,
The Adeptus Custodes on duty today saluted respectfully.
The fact that they didn't question or hold him accountable as before clearly indicates that they tacitly acknowledged his privilege as Living Saint.
Qin Yun didn't dwell on this issue too much.
After disembarking from the gunboat, he went straight to the Throne Room to pray to the Emperor and seek his wisdom.
The machine that maintained the Golden Throne roared, and light enveloped Qin Yun.
Trajan saw Qin Yun enter the Throne Room, after the Emperor had once again displayed his divine power, he nodded and turned his head away, ignoring the Throne Room.
Who can blame them for being so favored?
Unlike their Adeptus Custodes Guards, who were unloved and left to fend for themselves in the cold Imperial Palace.
After being enveloped in a bright light, Qin Yun instinctively closed his eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, they had been pulled into the Emperor's domain.
However, this time it's a bit special. It's not the City of Dust, nor is it Old Man Emperor's grandiose account; instead, it appears on an unknown grassland.
Looking into the distance, all you can see is a dazzling blue sky.
The distant mountains are lush and green, with mist shrouding their slopes.
Looking in another direction, you can see a huge lake.
And on the edge of the lake, there is a wooden house.
As he approached, he heard voices inside.
As he approached the door of the cabin, he looked inside and saw young Malcador once again.
However, this time, Malcador had a woman by his side.
The two of them were playing Regicide in the house.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, carrying the scent of nature, instantly relieving all fatigue and making one feel extremely comfortable and relaxed.
Qin Yun felt as if his soul had been cleansed, experiencing an unprecedented sense of ease and freedom.
This place is simply paradise.
Thinking of this, Qin Yun looked at Malcador inside the wooden house with a somewhat resentful gaze.
Damn it!! I'm out here working like a slave, and you're here living a life of leisure, even chasing girls!!
When I get back, I'll find a way to resurrect you, you old geezer.
You should handle the mess in Terra yourself!
"Malcador".
Qin Yun walked to the front of the wooden house and called out to Malcador.
"My child, you've finally come."
Malcador heard the voice, he turned around, saw Qin Yun, and smiled.
"I always thought you were single. I never imagined you actually had a wife?"
Qin Yun sized up the woman opposite Malcador.
She had long black hair and a pretty face, though not stunning.
But that's pretty good, I'd give it a 7 or 8 out of 10.
She is a qualified wife.
Malcador paused for a moment, Regicide in his hand fell to the ground.
The woman sitting on the other side of the chessboard covered her mouth and laughed.
Malcador bent down to pick up the fallen Regicide and introduced the woman's identity to Qin Yun.
"She is not my wife, she is Aria Sureka, who was once a Perpetuals."
"She's Aria? Perpetuals?" Qin Yun was somewhat surprised.
As a Warhammer fan,
He naturally knew who Arivia Sureka was.
Like Malcador, Arivia was also a servant of the Emperor.
She was born on Earth in ancient times, witnessing humanity's journey from the feudal era to the industrial era, and then into the starry sky, dominating the Milky Way.
After witnessing the glory, she saw firsthand how human civilization in the Age of Night was shattered by the Men of Iron Rebellion and the Warp Storm.
During the Age of Night, she went to Molech with the Emperor who did not yet call himself 'Emperor'.
The Emperor used the portal to Molech to enter the Warp and gained the power to fight against the gods.
Upon leaving, Arivia was left in Molech by the Emperor.
They requested that the other party guard the gate to prevent anyone from using its power.
What followed was the Horus Heresy.
Horus also went to Molech in order to gain the power of the gods.
Arivia tried to stop Horus, but was killed by him.
But because of the Perpetuals,
She was quickly revived and fled to the Sol System with other refugees.
During the Siege of Terra, she and Malcador attempted to stop Magnus.
As a result, Malcador was killed on the spot by Magnus's men.
In order to resurrect Malcador, Aria ultimately sacrificed herself, transferring her immortal life essence to Malcador.
"Then I'm really sorry, I thought this was your home and she was your wife?" Qin Yun said somewhat embarrassedly.
"I am dead, child," Malcador said. "I will have no home, no wife."
"Alright, I'm not here to talk to you about life and death, nor am I here to talk about your family," Qin Yun said.
"I know why you came here. The Warp deities, representing war and blood, have blessed your kin."
Malcador clearly knew why Qin Yun had come here.
"You want to know if this kind of thing will lead to your followers being subtly corrupted by the Chaos Gods."
Qin Yun nodded. "Yes."
"Do you know the story of Prometheus stealing fire?" Malcador didn't answer directly, but instead asked about an Ancient Terra myth.
"Of course I know," Qin Yun said, looking puzzled. "The question is, are these two things related?"
"Actually, there is another version of this story. Prometheus did not steal fire; he simply returned it."
Malcador said calmly.
"People always have a strange filter on God, believing that those special things belong to God. In fact, it is just that God has monopolized those things."
"For example, Apollo's sun, Poseidon's ocean, and the fire in Zeus's hand—these are things that existed when the universe was born."
"It was merely that those gods used their overwhelming power to seize those things for themselves. Over time, people forgot to fight back and instead accepted them as the private property of the gods."
"The god you're talking about sounds a bit like a landlord!" Qin Yun retorted, mocking Malcador's analogy.
"Essentially, God is a landowner with greater power," Malcador said seriously.
"The authority over the Warp does not belong exclusively to the gods; they merely seized the authority, monopolized it, and then declared it their own."
"Is war and killing an instinct inherent in all living beings? Even without gods, people would wage war and kill each other."
Whether God exists or not has no effect on how the universe works.
"The situation in the Warp is very complex. Before it is contaminated, all events that happen in reality will have an echo in the Warp."
"These echoes will, to some extent, feed back into the Realspace, making many races and worlds more prosperous."
"After being corrupted, the Chaos Gods were born, and the two worlds began to become unbalanced because the Chaos Gods took things that did not belong to them."
"What did they take?" Qin Yun asked.
"You'll find out later; now is not the time." Malcador didn't say more.
"All you need to know is that everything the gods are doing now is simply packaging what should have been given away as a gift that requires a price to be paid."
"..."
Qin Yun inquired carefully.
Malcador's answer made him wonder for a moment if the Chaos Gods were not gods at all.
Rather, it is the final producer of the final form of capitalism in Warp version.
An upgraded version of the Men of Iron Rebellion orchestrated by the Old Ones.
The authority of the Warp would normally bestow blessings based on the actions of mortal beings.
Because of the War in Heaven, the gods were born, and they monopolized the authority over the Warp.
It requires believers to pay a price to obtain it.
Over time, mortals came to believe that these things were the gods.
After figuring it out, Qin Yun didn't ask any further questions.
His current strength is not enough to help him figure out the truth about the Warp.
Before leaving, he asked Malcador if there was a way to bypass the gods and receive blessings.
While Qin Yun was humbly learning...
On a planet in the Imperium Nihilus.
The Dark Apostle, the Hand of Destiny, the Spokesperson of the Gods, Erebus walks on a blood-stained altar, chanting ancient and evil incantations.
After the Thirteenth Black Crusade ended and the Great Rift opened, Erebus...
They immediately offered up hundreds of millions of innocent people to the Chaos Gods.
However, he looked down on Abaddon, who was Warmaster, so he chose to stay away from the main battlefield and operate in the Imperium Nihilus.
During this time, he conquered many of the Imperium Nihilus, constantly offering sacrifices to the gods.
This sacrifice has been going on for several days.
At first, it did not receive any attention from the gods.
Erebus had already given up hope.
Who could have imagined that, as the sacrifice was drawing to a close, the silent gods would issue divine pronouncements?
When he received the decree from the Chaos Four Gods, he was overjoyed.
Tzeentch: "Go and poach the Outsider and his family. If you succeed, you'll be well rewarded."
Slaanesh: "If you can bring over the Outsider and his family, I will give you a temple with 666 beautiful girls. Once you complete the task, you can enjoy it immediately."
Khorne: "..."
Nurgle: "..."
Upon seeing the divine oracle bestowed by the Chaos Gods, Erebus's lips curled into a smile.
He thought that after the Horus Heresy, he had lost his greatest value.
The Chaos Gods will no longer bless or attend to him as they once did.
Who would have thought that all of this would come back to this?
"Abaddon, what good is all that you've done?"
"The one whom the Chaos Gods value is still me."
"Next, it will be my era to stir up the winds and waves."
Without wasting any time, Erebus immediately ordered his wizards to gather intelligence for him.
He wanted to show the gods through his actions.
Erebus is the one they can trust the most.
The wizards quickly brought back intelligence.
Upon learning that the Outsider retinue that the Chaos Gods had been longing for was now heading into the Webway, intending to launch an attack on Commorragh,
After weighing his options, Erebus decided to go there and investigate the situation on-site.
Putting everything else aside, let's capture a God Chosen and study them first.
Let's see what's so special about these guys that makes the Four Gods so covetous.
Once we understand the situation, we can formulate a comprehensive plan to capture them all in one fell swoop.
With his intelligence and cunning, swindling the families of Outsider was a piece of cake.
Arena in Commorragh, the observation Pyramid of the Supreme Overlord Vect floats.
In the magnificent halls of the Pyramid,
Vect is hosting a grand banquet with the leaders of numerous Kabal and the powerful families of Commorragh.
Such banquets are always accompanied by spectacular killing sprees.
The performances in the Arena today were exceptionally spectacular.
A massive free-for-all featuring a diverse cast of races including Succubus, Astartes, Tau Fire Caste warriors, Tyranid, and Orks.
There are no rules; whoever survives to the end is the winner.
Everyone in the competition gave it their all, just to survive.
Just as everyone at the banquet was enjoying the spectacular gladiatorial combat,
One of Vect's bodyguards walked in, looking flustered.
"The Dark Death of the Supreme Overlord and Archon Krez, has returned to port."
This remark drew the attention of everyone else at the banquet, who stopped what they were doing and looked at Vect on the throne.
"The war ended so quickly?" Vect with some disappointment. "I thought those humans were worth fighting for."
"Bring Krez to see me; this banquet needs more talking points."
The guard's face was filled with fear, and he even stammered as he spoke.
"He might not be able to come, because, because he is dead."
"There were only a few unfortunate souls with only half their bodies left on the Dark Death. The humans welded them to the warship and made them sail back to Commorragh."
"The ship was full of the corpses and heads of our people, and every warehouse was crammed full."
The guard's words made Vect's black eyes suddenly sharpen, his gaze like a sharp sword, threatening to cut him apart.
"This joke isn't funny."
Vect's tone turned grim, frightening the guard so much that he immediately knelt down, fearing he would be relegated to the Blood Reaver's side as material.
"Supreme Overlord, I would never dare to deceive you. Although the port of Commorragh has blocked the news, you can find out about it if you ask."
"Those humans also sent you a letter."
"Bring it up."
The guards handed the letter left by the humans on the Dark Death to Vect with both hands.
After confirming that there were no problems, the Supreme Overlord opened the letter.
It contains only a very short sentence.
"Bile Vect, wash your neck, we're here to kill you."
Warhammer Online official website.
At 6:00 PM sharp, the new expansion was updated on the official website.
Without warning or any indication, she emerged looking fresh and vibrant.
Netizens browsing the official website were stunned for a moment, and then cheered.
Wudang Wang Also Wants to Be Pirate King: "Oh my god, oh my god, it's been updated, and it's even an expansion pack about attacking Commorragh."
Little Fish: "Damn it, they're attacking Commorragh now! By the time I get a beta test qualification and log in, the Dark Eldar will probably be wiped out!!"
98K Headshot Horus: "We need to write a joint letter demanding that the official team not allow those important storylines to be released until I'm in the game."
Three Sticks Break Brotherhood: "Waaah! Waaah! Waaah! The kids who couldn't get beta access are so pitiful, they can only watch one expansion pack after another fly by."
Hellspiker Reporting for Duty: "Aren't Spectator Players human? Just find those guys any planet to test it out. They're wasting such an important part of the story."
"At least wait until I get a beta test slot before we start the game."
Cthulhu vs. Pretty Girl: "Hahaha, I got it, I got it!"
Fat Caterpillar: "Alright, another one's gone crazy @Dr. Dr. Wang of the Mental Hospital, hurry up and boost our sales."
"+1, poor kid."
+1.
+10086.
+1.
"..."
Cthulhu vs. Pretty Girl: "Screenshot. jpg"
98K Headshot Horus: "Ah, no, bro, you really got it? Ah! Ah! Ah! Why, tell me why??"
Fat Caterpillar: "It's not fair! This game is unfair! It's rigged! There's definitely something fishy going on!"
"..."
The new expansion pack quickly sparked heated discussions upon its release.
Qian Donglai, who had exited the game and was about to eat and wash up, saw the release of the new expansion pack when he re-entered the game.
"Anyway, they're still preparing for battle inside, so there's no harm in me going in. I might as well write an analysis post first."
Qian Donglai at his computer desk, opened a document, and typed a title.
Analysis of the New Expansion Pack
P. S.: Another 10,000 words today, hope you all enjoy it.
Let's end today's writing with a cool Horus.
