New Generation War for Terra
Then one day, the system suddenly notified you: [Plot Points collection is nearing its limit; the New Generation War for Terra is about to unlock. Please return to Terra.]
Lin En: "What?"
Another round of grand birthday celebrations?
The system said: [Sometimes I really want to praise you but also want to strangle you.]
Lin En raised an eyebrow. "Are you going through menopause? Why are you attacking me for no reason?"
The system ignored him; it was also questioning its own existence.
We're supposed to be a support-oriented system, with the ultimate goal of helping the Emperor rise up and clean up the galaxy.
As a result, if the opposing side doesn't gather their strength and launch a final, desperate attack, they'll almost be wiped out by you.
How dare you ask why there's another grand birthday celebration?!
This time, Chaos is truly desperate.
Four districts that usually dislike each other held an unprecedented roundtable meeting and then jointly issued a general offensive order.
The Four Gods joined forces, and the Chaos Primarchs united, leading their armies in a massive attack on Terra.
The Four Gods unleashed their most formidable army of demons.
The Chaos Legion also pulled out their weapons.
The eight demon legions and the Black Legion led the charge, followed by the Word Bearers, Iron Warriors, Emperor's Children, Deathguard, Alpha Legion... even the Chaos Warband, which usually fought independently, were all given unified numbers.
Meanwhile, the Aeldari Craftworld's prophet Ulthwé foresaw that humanity would become the galactic overlord, and that Chaos would launch a final invasion against humanity.
After Chaos's final assault, whether successful or not, humanity will have to climb over Chaos's corpse to reach the very top of the Milky Way food chain.
In the Simulation, the human fleet covered the star map, the Imperium flags were planted all over the galaxy, and the Aeldari Craftworld huddled in a corner, trembling.
The Aeldari were unwilling to accept defeat and, together with a group of Necrons who harbored resentment towards Lin En, the Phaeron, and the T'au Ork Empire, sought to gain a share of the spoils in the war between humans and Chaos.
... It would be even better if both sides could be crippled at the same time.
Many characters in Xenos harbor resentment towards Lin En.
Several Necron Dynasty that were enraged by Lin En at the time, the leaders of the Ork Empire that Lin En had almost wiped out, and the T'au were driven out of the galaxy by Lin En and collided with the Great Devourer.
Feeling humiliated and resentful, he opened the door as soon as the prophet knocked.
A kindred spirit found amidst the stagnant waters of a lowly mountain.
A group of low-level fighters hit it off immediately.
"Huh? Ah??? Ah??????"
[You son of a bitch. I've put up with you for far too long.]
Lin En stood there innocently, blinking twice. "... So I did a good job, okay?"
[Well done! Excellent! Too good!] The system practically wanted to jump out of the void and point at him, [Look what you've done to Chaos! The Four Gods are practically having a meeting! The original plan was to slowly grind down the Emperor until he stood up, then fight a big battle! But instead, you just swept through, attacking everyone you Necrons, attacking the Greenskins, then the Orcs, then the Greenskins, aren't you forcing them to rebel prematurely?!?]
Lin En opened his mouth, then closed it again.
He thought about it for a moment and realized that what the system said seemed to make some sense.
... But can we blame him for the rebellion in the Warp?!
... Can he be blamed for rebelling against those Aeldari, Necrons Orks T'au?!
The system said somberly, "[It's too late to say anything now. Go back and prepare for battle.]"
Do they know about Terra?
Guilliman is already mobilizing troops.
"What about Bolomite's side..."
[Bolomite is fine, who would bother attacking your back alley? They're mainly targeting Terra.]
Lin En stood up and shouted to Phoros, "Phoros! Call Gabriel and Sentoyor here. Call a meeting at the Bolomite command center!"
Phoros immediately accepted the order and turned to prepare.
Lin En walked towards the command center, asking the system as he went, "You just said the other side is so anxious they're about to have a meeting. What's the specific situation with the Four Gods?"
The Four Gods have now reached a consensus and are preparing for a big push.
This marks the start of another round of grand birthday celebrations.
Lin En was deeply saddened.
It's really not his fault. He just wanted to quietly attack Chaos, Necrons, Greenskins, and Titanium, but who knew that he would end up provoking the other side.
What is Terra's current defense level?
[After Guilliman returned, he reinforced the Solar System's defenses. The Dark Angels ' Unyielding Truth was positioned in Mars' orbit, the Adeptus Custodes and the Sisters of Silence were on the surface of Terra, and the Grey Knights were on standby. But if the enemy launched a full-scale attack, these might not be enough.]
The system's tone was still very somber. "[Look at this, look at this. I told you to take it slow, but you insisted on a one-size-fits-all approach. Now look what's happened, the other side has laid out all their defenses.]"
"What if I join you?"
[Adding you makes all the difference. But don't forget, the other side is going all in this time, with Four Gods involved. They might personally target you, so be careful.]
"No problem! Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"
The system fell silent.
You have a number seven or eight.
Phoros, Gabriel, Yor arrived at the command center one after the other.
Iron Hammer also moved a small stool and sat by the door.
Lin En slumped in his chair, staring at the ceiling.
Seeing that his expression was off, Phoros asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"
"Sigh, the Aeldari are up to something." Lin En sighed and gave a brief account of the information the system had given him.
The Ulthwé Craftworld, together with the Necrons, the Tau, Greenskins, formed a four-way alliance, planning to stab humanity in the back when they were nearly defeated by Chaos. They aimed to cripple one side if possible, and even better if they could cripple both sides.
Phoros's face darkened. "Ulthwé Craftworld?"
"Yes, the Seer Council Ulthwé led the way."
Phoros clenched his fist. "Sir, I'll take men to Ulthwé right away—"
"No rush," Lin En waved his hand. "We have more important things to do now: Chaos is attacking Terra."
"... Chaos has attacked Terra?!" Phoros's voice trembled.
"Yes. The Four Gods. All-out attack. A do-or-die effort. All resources at stake. Abaddon leads the charge, the Chaos Primarchs follow, the demon army, the Chaos Legion, they're all here."
Gabriel's bald head lit up, and he took a step forward. "Sir, what about Terra...?"
Terra already knows.
Sentoyor stepped forward as well. "My lord, then we..."
Lin En leaned back in his chair, gazing at the lines of starlight stretched out of the Porthole. "Fine, let's fight them all. Phoros, Gabriel, Sentoyor, go assemble the fleet. We're going to reinforce Terra."
The Aeldari were causing trouble from behind, while Chaos was going all in from the front. It was quite a big hand to have both sides attacking at once, but he wasn't actually that panicked.
With half Black Pelt in charge of Terra, Guilliman and the Lion King resurrected, Adeptus Custodes Sisters of Silence, the Grey Knights, and the Astra Militarum, plus the bugs and Astartes he brought back, they might not be unable to hold out.
As for the Aeldari's four-pronged coalition...
To put it bluntly, the Aeldari rely entirely on the Oracles' Simulation for warfare. If these Simulation were effective, the Aeldari would still be the dominant race in the galaxy.
What kind of trouble can a bunch of trash possibly cause when they band together?
