The Final Chapter

The Emperor and Qin Yun kept a close eye on the movements of the Extragalactic Old Gods.

They even took notice of Erebus's journey beyond the Milky Way to search for those Extragalactic Old Gods.

But instead of stopping them, they let that bastard Erebus do it.

Because facing a familiar enemy is always better than facing a completely unfamiliar one.

Although Erebus is a bad guy,

But the Emperor and Qin Yun knew him very well and could easily manipulate him.

As long as this fool can convince the Extragalactic Old Gods.

They borrowed the power of those ancient gods to launch an invasion of the Milky Way.

They could then use Erebus's help to study those guys and obtain more intelligence.

The threat of the Extragalactic Old Gods is drawing ever closer.

They are approaching the Milky Way as the Warp contracts, and even the Great Devourer is paying more attention to the Milky Way.

In a sense, the Great Devourer and these Extragalactic Old Gods are on the same level, equally ancient.

They must carefully manage the scale of the purge of the Chaos Gods to prevent the Warp from being destroyed too severely, leaving it unable to resist the contamination and invasion of the Extragalactic Old Gods.

As it continuously absorbed energy from the Warp, a large amount of Ethereal crystals were created.

Once players acquire enough Law Fragments, they can advance to become demigods, or even gods.

Their presence is the greatest source of confidence for the Emperor and Qin Yun.

Only by relying on players can they fight against those unfathomable and incredibly powerful Extragalactic Old Gods and their retinues.

As the energy of the Warp thinned, the Immaterium also became lifeless.

Survival is becoming increasingly difficult for many demons and Warp creatures.

Just maintaining their own existence has exhausted their strength.

But the Imperium did not let them go. As products of the erroneous operation of the Chaos Star, they had to be eliminated in order to make the Warp pure again.

Qin Yun and the Emperor continuously dispatched large armies to sweep through the Warp and clean up the Immaterium.

As time went by, the Chaos Four Gods also weakened, but remained extremely powerful.

Until the Laughing God - Cegorach brought the Emperor and Qin Yun into the Black Library,

Only after understanding all the secrets of the Chaos Star did they have enough confidence to defeat the four Chaos Gods.

With the help of Aesha, the goddess of life; Khaine, the blood-handed war god; and the Night Lords, Void Dragon, and other C'tan...

Qin Yun retrieved the Chaos Star from Warp.

That was the highest creation of the Old Ones sages, and the foundation of the Warp.

The creation of the Chaos Gods also depended on this thing.

After acquiring the Chaos Star, the war to destroy the Four Gods officially began.

The first target everyone set their sights on was Slaanesh.

He was born the shortest and was the weakest.

Most importantly, the Ynnead God is naturally his counter.

With players at the forefront, and the C'tan and Aeldari Gods as the main force,

The Imperium army marched in on the Slaanesh territory.

Even with the added advantage of their domains, the Slaanesh army was still no match for the combined forces of the group.

The other three Chaos Gods certainly wanted to provide support, but the Warp was now depleted, and their divine power was greatly weakened.

Once they leave their domain, their strength drops drastically.

Even if we provide support, it won't change anything.

After a fierce battle, Slaanesh's territory was breached.

As the Ynnead's sword pierced Slaanesh's body...

This powerful Chaos God was forced back to his primordial state.

Unless the Eight-Pointed Star is destroyed, the Chaos God is immortal.

Neither the Ynnead nor the Emperor could completely destroy them.

Given enough time, one will return from death.

Many of the Aeldari who had been devoured by Slaanesh were also released.

Asuryan, the head of the Aeldari Pantheon, wanted to negotiate with Qin Yun, demanding that the Aeldari be given equal status and that the Pantheon be granted autonomy.

As expected, he was suppressed by Qin Yun and Xi Ling and forced to swear an eternal oath of loyalty.

Because the legacy of the Old Ones has been fully inherited by the Imperium of Man.

As creations of the Old Ones, the Aeldari Gods were also part of the inheritance.

Therefore, the Imperium of Man controls the lifeline of the Aeldari Gods.

With the support of the Aeldari Pantheon, the Imperium of Man's power has expanded to a new level.

Following that, the Imperium of Man turned its attention to the remaining three Chaos Gods.

In order, they are Tzeentch, Nurgle, and finally Khorne.

Tzeentch is the most cunning, but most of his abilities are related to psychic powers and strategy.

Faced with overwhelming numerical superiority, Tzeentch's army was routed, suffering heavy casualties and abandoning its armor and weapons along the way.

The Crystal Labyrinth was breached, and even the Well of Eternity, which contained countless secrets, fell into the hands of humankind.

Like Slaanesh, Tzeentch was also reverted to his original state.

Next comes Nurgle.

His resistance was much stronger than Tzeentch's.

After all, they hold the power over things like life, plague, and reincarnation.

Despite its seemingly fat appearance, it possesses formidable fighting prowess.

It was only through a war of attrition, with the Emperor leading a group of allies, that He was defeated.

The last one is Khorne.

As the most powerful of the Chaos Gods, he is also the one who wields the power of blood and war.

Logically speaking, this war should have greatly nourished Him, elevating His strength to an unimaginable level.

However, after the operation of the Aetheric Phase Engine and the First Company actions taken by humanity to acquire the Eight-Pointed Star and inherit the legacy of the Old Ones,

He received no feedback from the Realspace, so his power not only did not increase, but weakened as the Warp was depleted.

Of course, Khorne remains very powerful.

He engaged in an unprecedented and terrifying battle with the Emperor and others.

They fought until the sun and moon lost their light, the heavens and earth lost their color, Warp shattered, before finally defeating this Chaos God and returning him to his original state.

After eliminating the Chaos Gods

Qin Yun and Xi Ling thoroughly studied the documents and records left by the Old Ones.

The Chaos Star was repositioned in the Warp, the Aetheric Phase Engine was stopped from drawing energy, and the repair of the Time Black Hole began, rebuilding the Immaterium.

To prevent the reappearance of extreme beings like the Chaos Four Gods, Qin Yun divided the Immaterium the Heaven and the Abyss, to avoid it becoming a cesspool again.

The Immaterium is a reflection of emotions and the soul, but the emotions absorbed are indiscriminate, which leads to the birth of the cesspool.

By separating them, a cycle can be established, thereby nourishing the Realspace.

The Heaven absorbs positive emotions such as integrity, kindness, and justice.

The Abyss absorbs negative emotions such as evil, depravity, and lust.

At the same time, a complete transformation channel is established to transform these positive or negative energies into resources in the Realspace, thus creating a cycle.

At the same time, Qin Yun also began to create the Human Pantheon, allowing the Primarch to wield different powers and manage the energy of the Warp.

Those warriors or heroes with noble qualities are absorbed into the Pantheon to create Heroic Spirit Warrior belonging to humanity.

Those who are morally corrupt are sent to the Abyss to serve as fuel, to cleanse their sins.

After accomplishing all this, the Imperium of Man had complete control of the Warp and became a powerful race that surpassed the Old Ones.

After all, the Old Ones saint did not have the support of the C'tan.

Now, the Imperium of Man has not only inherited everything from the Old Ones, but also gained the support of the C'tan and possesses the Aetheric Phase Engine, which allows all of humanity to continuously Sublimation and ultimately achieve ascension.

With the War of the Gods over, players began to eliminate the enemy races that had not been wiped out during the Great Crusade.

For example, the Nephilim, who treated humans as food, and Khrave, who used humans as breeding vessels, were all persecuted.

Players are happy to use these races that are unwilling to coexist peacefully with humans as fuel for leveling up.

Even the Seven Great Daemons of the Calixis Sector were found and brutally beaten by the players.

The secrets of Tyrant Star have also been revealed.

It is an ancient demon who intends to steal the power of the Dark King, which is why Tyrant Star behaves so much like Emperor.

In reality, he was not Emperor at all, but merely a Chaos Daemon who longed to ascend to the rank of Chaos god.

Qin Yun did this so that players wouldn't be bored, and also to help them improve their strength.

Various dungeons were created, featuring well-known demons and Chaos traitors.

Players can enter the challenge, and after defeating the opponent, they can receive certain rewards.

Sometimes, event instances will also be released.

Include projections of Primarch like Lion El'Jonson and Sanguinius; you'll receive a reward if you can defeat Primarch projections.

The truly powerful players, on the other hand, accept missions to travel beyond the Milky Way and confront the minions of the Extragalactic Old Gods.

This includes the Tyranids.

After the Imperium of Man grew stronger, it severed all the tentacles that the Tyranids had extended into the Milky Way.

The Tyranids were kept outside the Milky Way.

Once Tyranid's main force arrives, an unprecedented battle may erupt between the two sides.

Other Extragalactic Old Gods may also participate, summoning their minions from beyond the Milky Way to invade the Milky Way alongside the Tyranids.

"The war will never end." Jagatai repeated what he had said ten thousand years ago during the Great Crusade after learning of this situation.

Previously, people believed that defeating the separatist forces and the Xenos would bring peace.

At the end of the Great Crusade, the Chaos Gods emerged and manipulated Horus Heresy, igniting millennia of turmoil.

The Emperor suffered for ten thousand years on the Golden Throne, accumulating power, and finally, with the help of Living Saint, successfully defeated the Chaos Gods.

But now, the Extragalactic Old Gods have reappeared.

Even if they defeat the Extragalactic Old Gods, who knows if there will be new enemies?

In this dark universe, there will always be an even more powerful enemy.

Humanity can only keep fighting back.

The only ones who know the inside story and can still be happy are the players.

I thought Warhammer Online would be restarted and put into open beta after the final battle.

Who would have thought that after defeating the Chaos Gods, the official launch would immediately begin?

To make everyone realize that Warhammer is just the tip of the iceberg of official ambitions.

Warhammer is just an entry point; conquering the universe is the real goal.

This has led many to exclaim that it's a masterpiece, with some even suggesting that the developers might be creating a human version of the Xi Ling Empire.

"No wonder the C'tan's servant of the Guide is named Xi Ling. It seems that Warhammer is just a cover. This is actually a Xi Ling Empire Online game."

"Bring in Big Eyeball and throw it into the dungeon as a boss, otherwise this thing is updating slower and slower."

"..."

A new era for the Milky Way has begun.

The threat of the Chaos Gods has been eliminated.

As for how the war with the Extragalactic Old Gods will turn out, only future generations will know.

Fate has truly become a Chaos, and no one can see the future.

"Although it is difficult, as long as we do not give up, we will always have a chance to win."

"This universe is a competition of who can endure the longest. Humanity's greatest advantage is its ability to adapt to various environments and find ways to survive."

Malcador, however, is quite optimistic about this.

After all, he had once fallen into despair Siege of Terra.

After all that painstaking planning, nine Primarch betrayed them.

They were pushed back to Terra by the Chaos Gods.

It was on the verge of becoming a complete plaything of Chaos.

I still gritted my teeth and persevered.

The once invincible Chaos Gods were reduced to their primitive state and became tools of the Chaos Star.

The Warp was shaped into the Abyss and the Heaven, becoming a well-ordered place.

That is their victory.

If you persevere, things will eventually turn around.

"I have a new plan."

The Emperor then proceeded to promote his new plan to the crowd.

But as soon as He finished speaking, the crowd ran away.

The Emperor's plan is even more unreliable than Tzeentch's; anyone who believes it will fall into a trap.

However, the group brainstormed and devised a strategy to deal with the Extragalactic Old Gods.

That is to use the Eight-Pointed Star to block their invasion, then develop the Milky Way, and take advantage of the higher-dimensional life form (the player) to obtain information about those ancient gods.

Only after fully understanding them and knowing how to restrain and destroy them should a counterattack be launched.

Meanwhile, in the Calixis Sector, Von also learned about everything that had happened on Terra.

"I always said I had a keen eye. The moment I saw the Living Saint, I knew he had a bright future."

"That's why I followed him wholeheartedly. Now I'm able to become the Sector Governor, all thanks to my eyes."

"You were clearly driven to a mental breakdown by the plague army, kneeling down to everyone you saw."

Priest Hina, who grew up alongside Feng, bluntly exposed this claim.

"..."

Everyone has their own new chapter.

Regardless of their past identities, they now deeply admire the Imperium of Man and are willing to fight for it with their lives.

Perhaps we will face more challenges in the future, but humanity will always find a way to overcome them.

Qin Yun will also remain in this universe, continuously guiding the players and leading them to victory after victory.

Perhaps, one day, they really will be able to conquer the entire universe and make the Extragalactic Old Gods submit to the banner of the Double-Headed Eagle.

P. S.: Every story has an ending, and this book is no exception.

Although the book's performance was only so-so, having reached 1.4 million words, it still failed to win the "excellent" award.

However, once a book starts, it still needs an ending.

Therefore, after 1.3 million words, many chapters quickly skip over the plot and resolve previous plot holes.

I also hope everyone will support my new book, which will be uploaded in about a day or two.

Even if it's terrible, I'll still make sure it ends.

I don't want to waste any more time on this, so let's end it here.

Thank you all for your support and encouragement; it is thanks to you that I was able to finish writing this book.

When my grades are bad, I really want to quit, but seeing your comments gives me the motivation to write again.
