Chapter 52 The Return of Horus

After chatting with the Emperor for a while, Said found that besides Waldo and the Imperial Guard, there were two other people standing nearby.

One of them was Malcador, who was looking at Said with a smile on his face, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart, and the other was as tall as Brother Huang with a bald head, with a simple, kind and sincere smile on his face.

It was a face no Hammer would ever forget - Horus Lupekar!

The emperor introduced Said: "Macador, you have met, this is your nephew..."

Said took over the conversation and said, "I know, your name is Horus Lupekar, I am your uncle, and my name is Said!"

"Hello Uncle, Respected Prince of the Empire, everyone knows the name of the Puppet Master. Even if I have only been back for less than a month, your name is already as loud as thunder!"

Horus looked down at the boy who was less than his waist, and touched his head in embarrassment, feeling a little uncomfortable with his uncle.

But it does not prevent him from realizing Said's status in the empire, or in the heart of his father. He has a high emotional intelligence and will not show the slightest contempt.

And then the few giant soldiers who followed Said into the cabin completely made the contempt disappear without a trace.

No matter how thin the main body is, being able to command a large number of Astartes, a massive fleet, and an army of billions of trillions can speak for itself.

At this time, a giant soldier bent down and put his palm on the ground, let Said stand on it, then lifted it to the same height as Horus, patted Horus' solid shoulder, and praised:

"I'll call you Xiaohe from now on! We are all loyal servants of His Majesty, and we should work together to wipe out all ghosts and monsters for His Majesty and the empire!"

Xiaohe...you are so young!
Horus was not used to it, but Said was indeed qualified to call it that. Horus suppressed his displeasure and did not hesitate to praise him. His sincere appearance made people feel good.

Said knew that this was Horus' innate ability, and he could show a strong affinity, and others unconsciously had a good impression of him.

The rebellion happened a thousand years later, and before that, Xiao He was the emperor's loyal elder brother, so she let go of her hostility and praised Horus:
"Brother Huang, as expected of your son, he will definitely be the mainstay of the empire in the future!"

The emperor smiled and didn't speak, but Horus was very helpful. Said continued: "In the future, if you need uncle's help, just mention it, whether it's a puppet or a fleet, as much as you want!"

This guy is the emperor's default warmaster, and Said did not hesitate to win him over.

After paying respects to uncles, friends and nephews, Said exchanged greetings with Malcador:

"Master Ma, I didn't expect you to come too. It seems that Taila's government affairs are going well, and Mr. Ma has the power to strategize!"

Malcador said with a smile: "Where is it, His Royal Highness has promoted me, without the assistance of your puppet, how could I be so relaxed!"

With these words, Prince Yinyang Said sent him out of the way, leaving him with nothing to do.

Said also smiled and said: "I feel that Master Ma is bored, how about I withdraw the puppet and enrich the life of Master Ma..."

Malcador's smile disappeared, with a constipated expression on his face, then he shook his head and said, "Thank you Prince for your kindness, I don't want it anymore, if that's the case, the people below will not tear this old man up!"

Terra produces [-] million puppets every week, and the Ministry of the Interior will go to [-] million.

It wasn't that he didn't want to decouple from the puppet, but that the situation didn't allow it. Under the gestalt consciousness, the efficiency of the Ministry of the Interior doubled, saving a lot of manpower and material resources for the Great Expedition.

The emperor needs to take advantage of the subspace storm to subside and race against time for the great expedition. The efficiency of the Ministry of the Interior is especially important. The Ministry of the Interior can leave Malcador, but it cannot do without Said.

Loyalty to the emperor was overwhelming, not to mention that Sayyid formed a prince faction, even if Malcador was really emptied, he would still admit it with a pinch of his nose.

Moreover, Said did not evade Malcador, and the puppet secretary team still reported to him in detail and carried out according to his instructions.

In the Ministry of the Interior, a delicate balance is maintained between the princely faction and the bureaucratic faction, and the two sides work together to prepare for the Great Crusade.

The emperor looked at the few people calmly and did not speak, while Horus smelled a different smell from them.

He has only joined his father's core team not long ago, and there is still a lot to learn, so he should watch and think more.

At this time, the battleship set sail and sailed into the webway. It is expected to return to Terra in a month. At this time, the emperor brought the three of them into the conference room and asked:

"Everyone, the Said puppet went deep into all levels of the empire and reported the observed phenomena to me. There is one issue that deserves attention.

The imperial army and officials at all levels of the government are confused, and their understanding of the truth of the empire is not deep and thorough. Said, please talk to them! "

Said nodded: "Ma Xiang, Horus, as we all know, the official ideology of the empire is the imperial truth, advocating materialistic science, racial cleanliness, and authoritarian rule!"

Malcador and Horus nodded, and Malcador asked: "I don't know which point the officials at all levels don't understand well? What point does the daily style violate?"

Said said: "The emperor wiped out religion, and people and officials regard the emperor as a new god. Although this is contrary to the concept, it is not harmful. On the contrary, the attitude towards aliens is worthy of vigilance!"

Malcador was startled, this was a very serious accusation, Said continued:

"Many officials don't know enough about the dangers of aliens. They keep their eyes open and close their eyes. The three views follow the five senses. They think that cuteness is justice. They are spiritual slaves raised in private!"

"Among the low-level people, the books of the Ada Spirit Race are selling very well, and they have become a tool for many men to generate power late at night! The Harlequin Troupe has performed in Terra's hive many times..."

"These are all recorded cases, and I don't know how many have not been discovered!"

Malcador was surprised. Although he had heard a little about these things, he did not have Said's perception after all, and his understanding of the problem was not deep enough.

Said continued: "The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant's nest. There are so many problems before the Great Crusade has started. After the Great Crusade recovers many worlds, how can we ensure the purity of the empire!"

"After all, the fall of the Spirit Race is vivid in our minds. Who can guarantee that their yesterday will not be our tomorrow!"

Malcador's face was solemn, but Horus didn't know why, so the emperor didn't tell him the history of the fall of the spirit race, so he asked:

"Um... Uncle, how did the Spirit Race fall?"

Said was about to explain, but the emperor said first:

"The overly comfortable environment leads to confusion of thoughts, and various heresy thoughts flourish, and a powerful alien is nurtured in the subspace, devouring the spirit race!"

The Emperor concealed the existence of the Four Fiends from the Primarch, so he described them as powerful xenos instead of gods.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with saying that. In the world of Warhammer, gods are powerful existences. Although the conditions are harsh, they are not incapable of killing, and they are not fundamentally different from aliens.

The three fell into silence, digesting Said's words. At this moment, the emperor asked: "Said, what do you think about the issue of ideological confusion?"

Saeed said: "I hope to lead an institution that is responsible for the ideological struggle of the empire and ensure that the truth of the empire becomes the only sun of the empire!"

Malcador's eyes flashed with vigilance, and he asked, "If you lead this institution, what are you going to do?"

Said said coldly: "Refine and develop the truth of the empire, make it a holy book that guides all aspects of life, and then strengthen the supervision at all levels of the government and the army, and set off white terror against heresy..."

Malcador frowned, questioning: "You mean to establish a new religion?"

Said shook his head: "Imperial truth is a materialistic idea, how can it be a religion? It has a more civilized name: duang!"

 Since we want to avoid tragedy, we have to take an unimagined path, no matter whether we succeed in breaking fate, it is worth trying.

  Odin also tried his best to avoid the twilight of the gods. Although the result has not changed, it is undeniable that the process is quite exciting~
