Warhammer: I live under the watchful eyes of the gods

Chapter 49

Walking in the "empty" palace, listening to the sound of rumbling gunfire from outside the hall.

Karl knew that it was the automatic battery group he controlled, and was exchanging fire with the loyalists in the palace.

After all, this is not a fairy tale, and not everyone will believe what he says.

As for these "people who cannot be saved", Karl can only use fierce artillery fire to let them atone for their sins in front of the real emperor.

On the top of the main hall, many petal-shaped crystal glass forms a flying dome.

And under this dome, with its back to the flashy glass windows behind it, stands a rather spectacular "Golden Throne".

On the heavy base, three well-defined golden steps lead to a gold-plated seat with coiled armrests and a tall backrest.

Stepping on the red carpet under his feet, Karl is walking towards the "empty" throne.

Of course, he knew very well that there were a large number of invisible warriors hiding behind the pillars around the hall.

These elite guards are currently guarding the false emperor who is also wearing an invisible robe and is still sitting on the "Golden Throne" in the shadows.

But it's a pity that the equipment of these elite guards, as well as the shock wave oscillator under the "Golden Throne", are no secrets in front of Karl.

It's not so much a fight as it is a show for him.

Therefore, Karl, who pursued the maximization of interests, did not try his best at the beginning.

I saw him stepping steadily towards the throne step by step.

Seeing that Karl was so "defiant", some of the guards finally couldn't help it.

Several sharp ion cutting blades whizzed towards him.

Seeing this, Carl directly pressed a button on his hand.

In an instant, all the invisibility devices around were disabled, and hundreds of elite guards suddenly appeared in the originally empty hall.

And at the same time, the armor worn by these elites seemed to be out of control. They forcibly twisted the ion cutting blades in the hands of these elites, and put these weapons on the necks of the elites.

Yes, for Carl who has gained full control.

In this "human empire" at this moment, he is the real god.

It's a pity that this set of tricks is not of general use value.

First of all, it is counterintuitive that the 40k empire technology, except for some special cases (Cauer), almost lags behind the 30k period.

Among them, the degradation of intelligent control (mainly relying on people) and large-scale networked collaboration (basically relying on roar) is even worse.

This point is specific to the example, it will be obvious.

Karl can gradually steal the authority of the entire planet through a networked device at 30k.

But put him at 40k. Karl has a lot of knowledge, but it is difficult to find a place to use it.

But in any case, in Carl's eyes.

It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice (>^ω^<) Meow.

"Move again, and these ion blades will automatically cut your throats."

Regardless of the surprised eyes of the elite guards around him, Karl continued to walk slowly towards the "empty" golden throne after dropping a warning of "benevolence is the best".

At this moment, Karl did not remove the false emperor's invisibility, because the false emperor's invisibility was not achieved by camouflage coating.

And in this false emperor, Karl smelled the same smell as himself—the same smell of corruption.

Seeing Karl approaching constantly, the false emperor raised questions.

"I resist you, invaders."

It was said that Karl was not in a hurry to kill the false emperor.

Because he knew very well that the purpose of his trip was to show off, not to complete the assassination quickly.

If he really wanted the false emperor to die, it would be enough to directly detonate the ammunition depot under the entire palace.

But in this way, it will only trigger a stronger resistance, which runs counter to Carl's original vision.

So he was about to stop, and asked the false emperor: "Who is the invader, don't you know in your own mind?"

This sentence seems to have stepped on the tail of the false emperor, and the false emperor directly said furiously: "You are full of lies, everything you say is just an aggression for you, and it is just a high-sounding excuse."

Seeing that the false emperor seemed to be planning to quibble to the end, Karl did not hesitate and continued to walk towards the false emperor step by step.

When the false emperor saw Karl approaching, he snapped the button on the side of the armrest of the "Golden Throne" cruelly.

Normally, this button activates the ultrasonic vibration device.

The shock wave generated by this device will temporarily render the intruder unconscious.

And during this period of time, it was enough for the false emperor to move out a "normal body", and then the civet cat replaced the prince and ran away.

In the plan of the false emperor, Chaos beats the workers anyway, so there is no need to fight Karl here.

Anyway, this part of my task is not important at all.

Even if it really failed, Sishen would not make a special trip to find trouble for him.

At that time, I will put on a new skin and rely on the various little things I have hidden for many years, so I can still live freely.

It can only be said that the puppet emperor had a good plan, but such a strategy would hit the gun in front of Karl.

When the shock wave expected by the false emperor did not arrive as scheduled, the false emperor panicked.

But this time, Karl did not intend to give the false emperor any chance to explain.

A sword fell, and the head of the false emperor shot up into the sky.

Dark green rancid liquid sprinkled the entire "Golden Throne".

It wasn't until the pseudo-emperor's subspace disguise faded away that everyone finally saw clearly what the hell was on the throne.

This is a mantis monster that has already entered the "mature stage".

This special corrupted creature will gradually devour the human body in the vesicle.

In the end, after it matured, it used the power of the subspace to completely package itself as a victim.

In this regard, these chaotic bugs have the same effect as the "gene stealers" next door.

Gently wiping off the foul-smelling liquid left on the power sword, Karl finally understood why this place is rich in "sachets".

This is because these disguised "mantis people" have no way to hide the rancid breath on their bodies.

Therefore, these "mantis people" deliberately created a tradition of wearing sachets.

This also explains why the former clothing store owner said that Carl smelled wrong.

With the fall of the false emperor, Karl's public opinion offensive was also a complete success.

After witnessing all this, almost all the "citizens of the empire" stopped all confrontation with the No. 63 Expeditionary Fleet.

When the message of "surrender unconditionally and accept all terms" was sent to the flagship of the 63rd Expeditionary Fleet, all the Shadow Moon Wolves including Horus and Loken were stunned.

But it turns out that the four gods are very unhappy with Karl who ruined his plan.

And there was one thing he apparently forgot - completing the Emperor's mission did not mean completing the trial.
