A Core Ship From The Start

Chapter 1061: Chapter 732: It’s Hopeless, Burn It Chapter 1061: Chapter 732: It’s Hopeless, Burn It In Hollywood blockbusters, movies about alien invasions typically start like this.

On a beautiful, sunny morning, everyone is leading their peaceful, leisurely lives and starting a new day. However, soon, the clear sky is overshadowed by dark shadows. The earth begins to tremble and people, lifting their heads in surprise, see an incomprehensibly massive object emerging from the clouds, hovering above their city. At that moment, everyone is stunned; a taxi driver crashes into a wall, some people scream and run, while others cheer and jump for joy, creating chaos throughout the city.

Then the scene shifts to the local governing body’s room, where everyone is extremely tense, the President gets briefed, and others are working swiftly………

Well, these are the scenarios Duanmu Huai thought of based on the movie plots he had seen, given that they were now above the city, naturally, they couldn’t shoot a panoramic multi-angle wide-angle view of how tense or serious the atmosphere was like in the movies.

But through the Bird Divination Tool and detectors, they could still see on the screen the people screaming and running around on the streets and the traffic that had come to a standstill.

“Honestly, it’s my first time seeing something like this,” said Ann curiously as he observed the screen.

“I suppose the Tribunal’s emblem is just too frightening,” he said.

“I don’t think so,” Duanmu Huai stood motionless on the bridge; his thoughts returned to the time of the great expedition when the Emperor’s Legion aboard warships appeared before those abandoned human civilizations. What was the situation like then? Players had dug into this history, at the beginning of the great expedition, the Emperor’s actions were still transparent. But as the expedition progressed, most of the legions began to become more radical, leaning towards solving problems through force.

Duanmu Huai still remembered that veteran named Taviz, one of the Emperor’s Sons, whom Luo Ken had told him about, Taviz had a nickname called Whispering Wind, he was among those who joined the Legion and fought for the Emperor when the divine essence had not yet returned to the original body. According to Taviz’s account, the early days of the great expedition were sacred and full of wisdom, with nearly all the civilizations on those planets willing to submit and serve under the glory of the Emperor.

However, the expedition became more radical over time, especially after the return of the divine essences, Taviz sadly discovered that the great expedition had turned into a conquest of annihilation for those who opposed it.

And all of it happened after the Emperor appointed Horus as War Marshal.

Luo Ken also mentioned that during the expedition, they encountered a human civilization called the Kings Federation, keenly studying and cautious about Chaos. An envoy from the Kings Federation once told him that when Chaos began to emerge, it manifested as savagery, greed, and belligerence, an uncontrollable force of destruction.

Therefore, at the initial contact with Horus and others, the Kings Federation was extremely vigilant, believing Astarte to be a war-monger, tall and mighty, born for battle, tirelessly committed to destruction, especially since their leader styled himself as War Marshal. What kind of title was that? Not an Emperor, not a Commander, not a General, but a War Marshal. The term bluntly suggested a scent of Chaos.

Thus, they were very cautious and fearful of Horus and his cohorts, worried that they were indistinguishable from demons who thrived in chaotic wars and never satiated God of Destruction with blood-stained hands.

Indeed, the Kings Federation was right.

Ultimately, Horus led the Expeditionary Legion into a sword fight with the Kings Federation.

Right, why War Marshal?

A synonym for chaos, coming from the mouth of a human Emperor?

Especially when the latter had sworn to stay away from chaos? Original content can be found at novel·fıre·net

Well, although the Emperor can’t hear, Duanmu Huai still had to say it again.

That is a damn bastard.

“Great Judge, the other party is currently broadcasting on all channels, wishing to make contact with us,” said the operator.

“Patch them through, what are they saying?” Duanmu asked.
