Chapter 117: Can Khorne succeed?
Hogg, who was lamenting the improvement of his painting skills, had no idea what happened in the subspace. He threw the obscene picture into the internal group chat of Blackwatch, which really attracted a lot of applause.
There was also a wealthy group member who sent a red envelope in the group, which caused everyone to scramble for it. According to Hogg, this user was the daughter of a governor and was very wealthy before joining Blackwatch.
After completing his daily tasks, Hogg planned to play some games. He didn't know why he always felt that something strange was talking about him recently, and the growth rate of his psionic energy was accelerating.
This made Hogg feel as if he had forgotten something, but when he thought that something he had forgotten must not be important, he did not think about it too much.
He took out his treasured game console and opened his friend list. Sure enough, the kobold was still online. Soon the two of them formed a team and started the game.
Ever since Hogg banned his account, Khorne has become much more obedient. He changed his ID to "Macho Man's Tears" and mingled on major gaming platforms.
Hogg, who had been monitoring him, found that this guy was very generous and had been occupying the first spot on the reward list for many years. Hogg thought that since he couldn't escape, he would just take advantage of him and let him do what he wanted.
Watching the angel controlled by "The Tough Man in Tears" leading him to kill everyone, Hogg also typed a compliment with great tact:
"Brother is so amazing, he is worthy of being the most powerful one."
Khorne, who was sitting on the Brass Throne, smiled smugly after seeing the news and replied:
"It's just so-so. I'm the third best and no one dares to claim to be second. Do you want to recognize me as your master? I will definitely teach you all my skills!"
Looking at the greasy conversation coming from the other side, Hogg felt sad. He didn't understand why this bootlicker could become one of the big guys in the subspace. He didn't even dare to speak loudly to brag. What a rubbish.
He was just average. He couldn't even claim to be the second, yet he had the nerve to be the boss. Hogg didn't even want to expose him and only stopped mocking him because of the gifts he had given him.
"No, big brother! The emperor said that I can't play with you. I am still online secretly. If my father finds out, I will definitely be beaten. Otherwise, big brother, you can just beat up Old Man Huang. Then I will definitely surrender to you."
Hogg was almost disgusted by his own words. He felt that he was still not good enough and could not learn that kind of tea-like feeling. It would be great if Emilia was here, she was particularly good at being sarcastic.
As expected, Khorna was scared. Following the server-wide notification brought by a wave of gifts, he just left a sentence "next time for sure" and fled in a hurry without even saying a polite word.
Hogg curled his lips and made a "tsk~~" sound. He quickly asked his men to check if there was any problem with the origin of this batch of currency. The records he got were surprisingly normal, and they also found the exchange location of this batch of virtual currency.
As a gangster, Hogg still had some dignity and did not do anything to ruin his life. He made a Star Language call to Old Man Huang, who was still preparing for the expedition in Terra, and attached the chat record.
Hogg believed that these two guys would definitely fight. He would then seduce the ogre after a while. It would be so cool if he did it repeatedly a few times.
Time passed little by little, and the Blacklight of the Webway Racer soon arrived above Alicia and landed in the newly built ground dock.
Seeing that his hometown, which he had not seen for several years, had become more beautiful, made Hogg feel proud, but an annoying voice interrupted Hogg's sigh.
"Father! Don't stand there. Go back and sigh! You've been standing there for almost half an hour, and everyone wants to have lunch."
The hungry Captain Ross was anxious to eat and interrupted Hogg's self-indulgence, but this also made Hogg lose face. The stupid Ross didn't know that he had been remembered by the petty Hogg.
Under everyone's gaze, she dragged Hogg down the platform, showing that she was willing to sacrifice her life for food, and she didn't notice that Hogg's face was not right. As the chief steward of Blackwatch, she had to perform the duties given to the legion by the Emperor in the end. Soon, Hogg was caught by Emilia and asked about what happened.
After listening to Hogg's story and ideas, Emilia said with hatred for her father:
"You are too impatient, sir. With the business that Black Watch has taken over now, we can completely obtain the right of supervision in the future without anyone noticing. By then, even if the seal holder sets up the temple, it will rely on our system to operate.
You don't need to express your thoughts too early. Don't you realize that the Emperor trusts you very much? He didn't even hide the highest secrets of the Empire from you, but let you suffer a miserable hand.
You may not care about exposing our power too early, but other Primarchs may not. You should know that people in Alicia are discussing the selection of the future Warmaster. "
As the butler who has been with him till now, Hogg trusts Emilia very much. Even if she is now educating him like an old mother, he can only listen.
"I am indeed a little impatient, but I am also doing this for the better integration of Blackwatch into the Empire, and I have no idea about the position of Warmaster. Whoever wants that damn thing can have it.
Even if someone else becomes a warmaster, it's useless. I have a strong army and powerful horses in Blackwatch. If I really fight, who can compare with me?
Even Old Man Huang doesn't dare to beat me like he used to. I, Hogg Menethil, am not joking. He is counting on me to take care of him in his old age and till the end of his life!
Just wait, my Emilia, there will be a good show in the future, and we will make a shining debut at that time, but now we just need to wait."
Seeing her own Primarch being so "filial", she, as the nominal descendant of Hogg, did not want to comment. It would be impolite to say anything more. She just felt that with that mouth of Hogg, it would be difficult for him to become a warmaster.
If he really becomes the Warmaster, Blackwatch might be finished one day. It's good enough to develop in the Alicia sector like now.
Hogg, not knowing that his remarks had completely dampened the spirit of the general manager, was still complacent and casually threw the transportation mission to Emilia.
But before leaving, Hogg was curious about who spread the rumor that he would become the warmaster, so he asked Emilia.
It was with this question that Hogg identified the biggest rumor maker in Blackwatch - First Captain Ross.
"You bastard, don't think I won't touch you just because you have so much experience. I'm going to throw you to Dantioch and let you fight with them for the rest of your life!"
The two returned to the ongoing banquet and joined the ranks of crazy fans, but Hogg's eyes drifted towards Ross in the distance from time to time.
A few minutes after the banquet ended, Ross received a transfer order, ordering him and the Iron Hands who were working in Blackwatch to go out and collect dust.
Just when Ross was looking melancholy, a figure who was two meters tall came in front of him, and the huge shadow directly blocked his figure.
"Hiccup~~, are you the captain of the first company who is going to be our cook?"
