Chapter 103 Cloaked Cockroach

Chapter 103 Cloaked Cockroach
As a big guy with extreme social anxiety, the Emperor is usually very autistic except when he looks lively when beating up Hogg.

Otherwise, if the Emperor had communicated more with his descendants and stopped being a riddle-teller, the Great Rebellion might not have caused such great losses.

Apart from anything else, Mr. Krabs's personality is completely tsundere. If the emperor just spends a little more time talking to him, even if there is a rebellion, he will hesitate instead of showing off his fatherly kindness and filial piety.

In order to meet his social needs, the taciturn Emperor always turned on his aura of human charm, thinking that he could win the heart of the Primarch with this. It can only be said that it was not unfair that he ended up on the toilet.

But if the power of the Emperor is added, this halo can cause an extremely terrifying first-sight kill, for example, Luo Jia is now bewitched by the yellow-skinned man.

In Lorjia's eyes, the Emperor's figure was infinitely taller, and he had become a giant spirit emitting golden light. With such great power, even if Hogg beat him to death, Lorjia would have to say that the Emperor should be a god.

So, Lorgar knelt smoothly, but Hogg's training did play some role, allowing Lorgar to pray to the Emperor in his heart instead of turning into a religious madman on the spot.

"Father, I have seen your majestic figure in my dreams. I understand your great cause. As your son, I will fight for the Great Crusade my whole life."

Such pleasing remarks made the expressionless emperor very happy. He immediately smiled with satisfaction and held Luo Jia's hand.

"Luo Jia, I am very pleased that you have such awareness. It seems that Hogg has educated you very well during this period of time. Next, you can stay in Terra for a while and get familiar with your own legion."

But after hearing the Emperor talking about Hogg's teachings, Luo Jia trembled involuntarily. The phantom pain of broken bones all over his body made his expression distorted unnaturally, and the Emperor happened to see this change.

As soon as the Emperor saw Lorgar's performance, he knew it must be Hogg's doing. After all, this bastard had a history of beating his brothers. He could still hear rumors among the Guards that Angron had been beaten up.

This made the emperor decide that he had to compensate his newly returned heir, and he immediately asked about what happened to Luojia at that time, while the imperial guards serving on his left and right quietly pricked up their ears.

Recalling the threat that Hogg had threatened him before arriving on Terra, that if he informed the Emperor, he would fight him every time he saw him, Lorgar backed off. But when he thought of his father being right beside him, he would have the Legion's help.

And no matter what, Hogg couldn't chase him, because he would be outside by then. The most important thing was that Hogg was not there, and Luo Jia, who had been suppressing himself, began his story.

"Father! You don't know how Hogg treated me. He hit me with a Titan and said it was for my own good and part of the training."

"Titan?"

"Ah. Hogg is really a piece of shit. How could he use the Warhound Titan to fight his own brother? Oh! Fortunately you are okay. Don't worry, I will definitely beat him up next time."

"It's not a Warhound Titan, father. It's an Emperor-class Titan. It's so big that it can crush me half to death with one kick. It has been chasing me for a week.

Do you know how I survived that week? They bombed me every three hours, using naval guns. My entire body was made of regenerated parts, and I was broken into pieces several times.

Having said this, Luo Jia couldn't hold it in any longer. The grievances he had endured for many days burst out at this moment, and tears flowed uncontrollably. If it wasn't for his own life, he wouldn't have disguised himself as a fool!

Lorgar was no fool. No one trained to risk their lives. Although he still had some strange admiration for Hogg, he was really wronged. Lorgar's crying made everyone around him speechless, as if they were frozen. The guards sighed in their hearts that they must never provoke Hogg in the future. They did not have the good physique of the Primarch, and they could only wait to die if they were hunted by the Titans.

The Emperor felt that Lorgar was really lucky to be able to withstand such training. No wonder he felt like he had released some of the essence of the warp just now.

"Perhaps this method can be extended, but we just lack more data."

Without hearing the Emperor's sigh, Lorgar continued to recount his days under Hogg, describing the Blacklight as a living devil's den. However, he still praised the delicious food at Blackwatch in the end.

The Emperor and Lorgar came to the palace, and the two discussed the truth of the Empire at the banquet. The nobles around him put down their fears when they saw that the Primarch Hogg, who was supposed to be seated, did not come. After all, Hogg would really kill them.

On the other side, Hogg, who had broken into the lower-level hive, was found by Blackwatch. He watched his father's head smash into a huge engine, and the solid skull blocked the rotation of the adamantine gears.

As if he sensed the arrival of his offspring, the dizzy Hogg shook his legs and called for his offspring to help him through the mental network.

It's not that Hogg couldn't use brute force to dig himself out, but because he found that the gear bearing was actually made of shiny gold. The greedy Hogg held on to the gear tightly. God knows whether he could find it if it rolled down.

Finally, a modified Leman Russ engineering vehicle was dispatched to pull Hogg out.

Spitting out the gear with tooth marks in his mouth, Hogg called his boys to come and dig. He felt that he might have found a treasure, and there might be some good stuff underneath.

Sure enough, after replacing the device with a plasma engine, everyone screamed excitedly with their eyes flashing red as they looked at the golden gears on the ground.

You should know that even the keel of a battleship is made of an alloy mixed with gold. This rare precious metal is comparable to gold in the 2K era and is the preferred raw material for many important components.

The cans, who had rubbish picking in their DNA, quickly tidied up the surroundings, trying to prevent others from noticing their presence. After all, such a concealed presence must have been placed there intentionally by someone.

After picking up the golden cans, the people fled the scene in a hurry like a group of cockroaches, leaving only the roar of the running engines.

A Terran noble who was socializing at the banquet couldn't help but sneeze. He always felt that something bad was going to happen, but what could be a problem with the Lord of Humanity right next to him?

What these nobles didn't know was that, as they were gazing at the glory of the Emperor and his descendants, the places where they had hidden their treasures were discovered one by one by a group of black cans wearing cloaks.

When they returned to their family, they wanted to die because that was the wealth accumulated by several generations of their family.

Several families that lost their treasures sent out spies to look for the thieves, but in the end there was still no news.

Since then, a legend about a species of cockroach called the cloaked cockroach has been circulating in Xiachao. It is said that these strange creatures appear in groups, causing many residents to be afraid to leave their homes alone.
