The Void Dragon: How Dare a Mere Warp Demigod Act So Arrogantly?
Suddenly, she felt that the mechanical statue seemed to have glanced at her, intentionally or unintentionally!
That evil, blasphemous, terrifying power, like an endless torrent of malice, surged into Lillian's brain in an instant. She felt as if she had fallen into an endless sea of flames and was in a terrifying Forge!
A pair of evil eyes, like a demonic ghost, silently watched her soul amidst the burning flames, emitting a piercing, mocking laugh.
Oh, it hurts so much!
This is not a physical sensation, but a pain deep within the soul, as if being torn into countless pieces, only to be pieced back together again, in an endless cycle!
What terrified Lillian the most was that a deep and terrifying malice was seeping into the depths of her soul, drilling into her mind, and stealing and spying on all her thoughts!
No, this is bad— Lillian suddenly realized that this was Lloyd's real test. Once her consciousness and mind were completely penetrated, all the plans she had made so far would be completely exposed!
That malicious intent ruthlessly tore apart Lillian's last shred of resistance, easily penetrating her mind!
Lillian felt a bitter taste in her mouth. She hadn't expected that after pretending for so long, she still couldn't withstand the final test.
However, just as her consciousness was about to be completely lost and taken over by that malice, the iron plate she was tightly holding suddenly lit up with a faint light!
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
Burn Coke was studying the "Destroyer" armor, its mysterious runes engraved inside the metal captivating him as if they had opened the door to a new world.
"It's wonderful! It's perfect!"
A series of exclamations, representing Bourne's astonishment. "This is simply... a gift from the Omnissiah!"
This Grand Sage of the Mechanicus is over five hundred years old. His body has been modified in many places, and even his brain has undergone mechanical parts replacement. This undoubtedly violates the orders of the Martian Mechanicus, but he doesn't care!
He never pledged allegiance to anyone; he only cared about "knowledge," even if it meant being considered a traitor!
That's why he became Lloyd, the Fernando Family's most loyal ally. The reason is simple: only Lloyd could give him "knowledge"!
Although much of that knowledge was considered "Chaos knowledge," Bourne didn't care.
Now, this "Destroyer" armor seems to have shown Bourne a completely new system of knowledge.
How could someone like him not be fervent when presented with such a sight before his eyes?
But just as he was studying it more closely, the empty pupils of the armor suddenly ignited with fire, pulsating violently as if possessed by a soul!
What's going on?!
Bourne was stunned for a few seconds. He hadn't done anything, so how had his armor been activated?
Was it accidentally woken up?
Just as Bourne was pondering this, he saw that the mechanisms around the armor, which were used to control and hold it in place, seemed to have all come to life and detached themselves from the armor's body!
Upon witnessing this bizarre scene, Bourne's first reaction was not joy, but horror!
He hurriedly tried to input operating commands to control the robotic arm and re-trap the armor, but to his shock, he discovered that all the machines were uncontrollable, and the commands were chaotic and distorted!
"Omnissiah above!" Bourne cried out in terror, realizing that Daemon invasion might have occurred.
Without hesitation, he turned and ran.
However, what happened next terrified Bourne even more.
The armored figure raised its hand and gripped it, and the surrounding machinery seemed to come alive. Steel cables coiled around him like pythons, then several mechanical arms lifted him up like a chick.
They obediently caught it and took it back.
"What... what are you?!"
Bourne stared in horror at the armor that seemed to have come to life, muttering incessantly, begging for Omnissiah's protection.
The flames in the armor's eye sockets flickered like those of a soul, seemingly carrying a hint of disdain. Looking at the panicked Bourne, it let out a cold laugh, "So many years have passed, and you're still the same. Your so-called 'Omnissiah' —isn't he standing right in front of you?"
At that moment, Bourne's mind went blank.
"No, you Daemon, don't even think about impersonating the great Omnissiah!" In his horror, Byrne couldn't believe that Omnissiah was right in front of him!
That's true. Although the Mechanicus all believe in Omnissiah, very few people actually hope to see him in person.
In the Warhammer Universe, "god" is not a compliment, especially when you see your own god appear before you.
"Pfft--." The Void Dragon looked at the seemingly broken robot with disdain and sneered.
They gagged him and tossed him aside. "Your faith is so weak. If I hadn't been suddenly awakened, I wouldn't have bothered seeing you."
He then went to the control panel and casually operated it a few times. "Hmm, the distance is a bit far, but fortunately I can amplify my consciousness, that should work... Damn Alvin, all he does is cause me trouble."
When I get back, I'll make sure he reduces my sentence by a hundred years—no, fifty years, please.
"Hmph, you dare touch my people?" The Void Dragon sneered, its gaze seemingly penetrating the torrent of data, piercing through countless dimensions to see the tormented Lillian and the statue before her. "Vashtor —a mere Warp demigod, how dare you act arrogantly in the Realspace? Get out of here!!!"
At this moment, the order woven from the laws of physics, mixed with the rage of this ancient C'tan, surged into the iron plaque!
From the depths of the Warp, a scream suddenly echoed, followed by an angry roar!
Caramel!
Lillian was suddenly jolted awake, as if everything that had just happened was a hallucination.
However, she knew very well that it was not an illusion, because the iron plate in her hand was getting extremely hot, and the mechanical statue in front of her was cracking open with several terrifying cracks that almost pierced through its body!
Lloyd, standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.
What happened?
How come the statue of "The Creator Vashtor" suddenly has several cracks?
I have absolutely no idea what happened. How did the statue of "The Creator Vashtor" suddenly crack in several places?
The Fernando Family invited numerous nobles, Planetary General, members of the Ecclesiarchy, and members of the Mechanicus to a gathering. During the party, they were attacked by a cult, and the entire banquet hall exploded, resulting in heavy casualties. Lloyd was seriously injured and fell into a coma!
The news spread like wildfire, filling the streets and alleys, and instantly causing widespread panic throughout the entire Nomad Port!
The Fernando Family was attacked!
Moreover, it is said that Ryley Fernando, the heir of the Fernando Family, also died in the explosion, the person in charge was seriously injured and fell into a coma, the direct members suffered heavy casualties, and more importantly, even most of the nobles, such as the Planetary General, died in the explosion!
"This kind of nonsense can only fool children."
Alvin, who was effectively imprisoned in the manor, couldn't help but chuckle upon learning of this, "What cult? In my opinion—the biggest cult is probably the Fernando Family!"
"You mean... the Fernando Family blew up the banquet hall themselves?!" Ilya looked completely bewildered.
He blinked, as if in disbelief. "But... but I heard that even Sir Lloyd, the head of the Fernando Family, was seriously injured in the explosion, and the family's direct descendants suffered heavy casualties!"
"How else can we convince others that this bombing was carried out by a cult?" Alvin shook his head and said calmly, "I bet the Nomad Port is going to be quite lively from now on."
Lloyd seriously injured?
That's a joke! Based on his understanding of that old fox, he's probably hiding behind the scenes right now, quietly observing how things develop!
But there was one thing that puzzled Alvin.
Why has the Fernando Family suddenly become so eager to seize power? Unless something has happened that forced them to do so!
"Could it be Aldrich?" After much thought, Alvin concluded that this was the only possibility. He looked out the window; the seemingly calm Nomad Port was actually rife with undercurrents!
