Chapter 119 Warhammer - Activation! (2.3k)

With the plan finalized, the Emperor began to organize his forces.

However, the planned distance to Angron, the first son to return, is too far. If they were to attempt a warp voyage now, they might not even be able to find their way and could get lost.

Therefore, Dio proposed that the Imperial Guard take a company or a battle group of the Twelfth Legion and the War Dogs Legion to set off first.

The Emperor made no attempt to hide the fact that their genetic father was being oppressed and humiliated by the High Lords like a plaything.

Then the legion members began to curse the high lords of the planet where Angron was born.

So they organized a duel, selecting the strongest company of soldiers from tens of thousands of troops to go ahead with the Imperial Guard to find their genetic father.

Then, the emperor looked longingly at Dio.

Because of subspace storms, all space travel technologies mastered by mankind are for subspace travel.

History has shown everyone that subspace travel comes at a cost and is absolutely unsafe!

Deo, from the Marvel universe, became the Emperor's lifeline.

If we hadn't discovered and utilized subspace technology for travel, humanity might not have developed space travel or warp drives during the Golden Age.

The Emperor is now extremely envious of Marvel's various cutting-edge technologies.

Dio's lips curled into a smile.

"want to?"

The Emperor nodded.

“I am willing to pay the price,” the Emperor promised. “You are now another head of the Empire, with the same power as me.”

"You can appoint or dismiss anyone at any time, and make all military and political decisions."

"As long as you can provide us with the technology we need at any time."

The Emperor knew the value of Marvel's cutting-edge technology, and also had the powerful multiverse as a trump card. To be honest, exchanging these rights for the current command of the Empire wouldn't be unreasonable.

He would even give up the throne to Dio if he was willing to lead humanity back to the Golden Age!

"This..." Waldo, the guard next to him, almost popped his eyes out. What had he just heard?

Even Makado was stunned for a second by the Emperor's words.

“Your Majesty…” Makado felt he needed to say something and began to offer his advice.

But the emperor stopped him.

“You don’t know what this means. You’re young and may not know about that long history, but I do know. I understand it.”

The Emperor's unquestionable words forced Makado to swallow back the words he was about to say.

Okay, you're older, so you're right.

Dio rolled his eyes. What did he need these rights and positions for?

The other side wants to retire and then come here to take up a new position?

Then wouldn't my retirement have been for nothing?

Dio waved his hand and said, "No need, these rights are useless to me."

"Then what do you want?" the emperor asked hurriedly, his voice trembling with tears.

The urgent tone in his voice made Waldo, who was standing next to him, feel as if the sky had fallen.

Is this still the same majestic emperor I once was?

Makado covered his face. He had known the Emperor for a while and knew what kind of monster the Emperor was in real life, but he shouldn't do this in public!

So many people are watching!

That's so embarrassing!

“You have to come and help me. If you’ve read the comics, you should know that there’s a multiverse crisis in Marvel. I need your help.” Dio pressed down on the Emperor’s shoulder and looked into his eyes seriously.

"Huh?" The emperor was stunned, slowly releasing his grip on Dio's hand, his eyes darting away.

He knew about the multiverse crisis, but he was just a nobody who couldn't even go to parallel universes. If he went there, wouldn't he just be a sitting duck?

"How about... I think about it?" The emperor hesitated, then released his grip and prepared to retreat.

Dio grabbed him.

"No, I only have this one request: help me overcome the multiverse crisis. I'll help you reunify everything." He then tried to let go of her hand.

Dio made only one request: either help me, or I'll leave.

The emperor's mind raced.

If he can travel through time, then he can also travel through time to leave.

His goal was clear: to find someone in the multiverse to help him.

In other words, besides this place, he has been to other multiverses, or will go to other multiverses in the future!

In conclusion, he can traverse the multiverse!

In just a second, the Emperor grabbed Dio's arm again.

"I go!"

This time, his words were firm and resounding!

Then the Emperor chuckled and said, "Now that this is over, how about taking me to the multiverse to play together?"

"What? You don't want your human empire anymore?" Dio asked, puzzled.

The Emperor shook his head: "My original intention was to reunify the human empire of the Milky Way, and then slowly abdicate. The future of humanity will be left to them, and I will return to being a mortal and hiding among the people!"

This was also the emperor's original intention.

After all, he planned that once the network was built, it would provide humanity with a brand-new faster-than-light route to avoid the subspace.

However, Magrus was bewitched by Tzeentch and blasted through the network with a psionic communication.

Not only did it cause heavy casualties to the Thousand Sons Legion, but the Imperial Guard of the Ten Thousand Men Legion was also reduced to only one thousand men. It also indirectly led to the death of Makado, and humanity gradually began to eke out a living in the universe almost permanently.

And finally, the emperor was forced to sit on a golden toilet.

Ultimately, it all comes down to the emperor's education.

And his riddle-solving qualities.

Dio nodded.

There's nothing wrong with that. After all, he wants to go out and have fun after the multiverse crisis, so bringing one more person along is fine, as long as he can tolerate the whole family being a couple.

Dio gave him a strange look, which made the emperor feel uneasy.

However, Dio acted quickly, immediately ordering the Transformers forces to help build a warp drive and a space shuttle device.

The Transformers were very fast; they finished one in less than six hours.

The Emperor was overjoyed. He drew his longsword, which immediately burst into flames: "Warhounds! Your genetic father, my son, is being oppressed. Now the Imperial Guard will assist you in going into space to save your Primarch!"

"Now, set off and bring my son back!"

“Bring it back!”

“Bring it back!”

“Bring it back!”

With a wave of his sword, the Emperor commanded all the chosen Astartes of the Twelfth Legion to board the newly modified spaceship in an orderly fashion, together with the Imperial Guard.

Dio then teased the emperor, saying, "I remember during the Horus Rebellion, you only claimed they were your sons when you found them."

"Aren't you afraid that the Astartes might have ulterior motives by doing this?"

The emperor shook his head, unmoved by Dio's teasing.

"I will eventually abdicate, and I will take them with me. No one will inherit my position. My position will always belong to humanity, not to me personally!"

The emperor's answer was firm and resolute, as if it brooked no refusal.

However, Dio did not believe it.

After all, when he wanted to abdicate, he faced numerous obstacles when he said that his successor should be chosen from among the other members of the Eternal God race.

Everyone says that his son should inherit the position.

But who was Dio? He was the one who had the final say in the empire. He directly brought out the law and wrote down the right of succession to the imperial throne.

Then they violently suppressed those who tried to stop them.

Only then was it implemented.

But emperors...

Hmm, hard to say.

"Oh right, I forgot to ask, what kind of navigation system does this spaceship use?"

"I sent a Transformer in to connect to the spaceship and act as its intelligent navigation system."

"...That's good, that's good."

Dio was helpless; even emperors were still somewhat apprehensive about artificial intelligence.

Dio glanced at the Transformers and his Imperial Guards who were busily throwing out the wet parts from the spaceships, and silently reinforced the sensory shielding behind the Emperor.
