Chapter 282: The era of the Primarch is over?
755.M33,
After receiving the news of Lady Euden's assassination, Guilliman rushed back to Macragge as soon as possible, and chose to return to Holy Terra again after disappearing for seven days.
But when Guilliman returned this time, his condition began to deteriorate rapidly. After persisting for half a year, he finally waited for the arrival of other brothers.
But when Guilliman appointed Angron as the new regent, he was directly opposed by the unanimous vote of the High Lords' Council.
The reason given by these mortal officials promoted by Guilliman was that they believed he could do a better job and there was no need to appoint other Primarchs.
At this moment, Guilliman finally reacted. He finally understood what Angron had said a thousand years ago, and infinite anger began to burn in his heart.
Perhaps realizing that his brother had figured it out, Angron wanted to help him, just like the Lion King did before.
But this time, Guilliman did not choose to back down. Instead, he followed his inner thoughts and walked alone to the trembling High Lord Councillor.
Listening to the screams coming from inside, Angron left the hall and gently closed the door. He knew that his brother needed to vent, vent the resentment of thousands of years, and he only needed to wait silently.
756.M33,
A Day of Mourning: According to official reports, Roboute Guilliman, the Regent Lord of the Imperium since 2713, died of illness on Macragge and was buried next to his adoptive mother, Lady Euden.
The Ultramarines began to gather on the world of Ultramar 500 and concentrate on their operations, refusing to accept any resolutions of the High Lords' Council.
-
Angron became the second regent of the empire.
757.M33,
Reign of the Mad King: - In the second year of Angron's reign over the Empire, the World Eaters replaced the Ultramarines and began to garrison Holy Terra.
But just when the human nobles wanted to take the opportunity to demand more rights, a massacre occurred throughout the Solar Star Region. All Terra nobles and officials died, and countless exquisite ships remained in the solar system forever.
This move directly caused the paralysis of the entire imperial center, but at the same time, the Iron Phoenix, under the leadership of two primarchs, directly blocked the Solar Star Region.
It was not until a month later that the Solar Sector was opened to the outside world, and any records of the event were destroyed.
876.M33,
Death KPI: Compared to the era of Guilliman, after Angron came to power, the High Lords Council was not dissolved. Instead, all the power of the Empire was delegated to mortals.
As the regent, Angron never interfered with mortals. He only sent people to collect government statistics for each official and eliminated the bottom 10% every 10 years.
Moreover, Angron treated everyone equally, and local officials also enjoyed the good policy of eleven strokes and killings.
For a time, the originally bloated government system was extremely streamlined, and every mortal official enjoyed the joy of work.
001.M34,
Second Rebellion: As the Empire under the benevolent rule of Regent Angron for more than 200 years, rebellions began to break out in various parts of the Empire. At one time, a large number of planets declared independence and demanded that Angron step down.
The voices from the rebellious areas immediately attracted the consent of the Regent, who announced his abdication through the Kara network, and the two demigods of the Iron Phoenix served as Regents.
This move won unanimous approval from the entire empire, and Angron even earned the reputation of a wise king, which led to an increase in his reputation.
In the same year, Ferrus and his wife came to power and the empire entered the era of dual kings.
Angron, who had retreated to the second line, disappeared, and only the World Eaters became increasingly active in the galaxy.
But according to gossip, two giants were seen on Macragge, and with them were tall ladies, one of whom resembled Angron.
376.M34,
Secondary Development: Unlike the Eleven Slashes during Angron's reign, the rule of the demigod couple was more anthropomorphic. During this period, due to the experience of more than 200 years of good governance, the imperial officials obeyed the orders of the two regents and were afraid of enjoying the same education again.
The two demigods did not disappoint the empire. With the implementation of various people-friendly policies, the imperial economic system that was almost destroyed by Angron began to recover.
Although rebellions often occurred within the empire, they were quickly suppressed due to Vulkan's resurrection.
For a time, the cohesion of the Human Empire increased dramatically, and loyalty to the Empire, loyalty to the God-Emperor, and loyalty to the Lord of Black Light became everyone's life belief.
But unlike Guilliman who was good at government affairs, even with a double ruling, the two Primarchs were still under great pressure.
In the same year, the success rate of the Stargate, which was originally able to travel safely, began to gradually decrease, so that the Webway project began to be put on the agenda.
666.M34,
Psionic Tide: Under the observation of the Imperial scientific researchers, they finally discovered the law of psionic changes and named it psionic tidal fluctuation.
According to nearly 4000 years of continuous research, the humans of the Empire have discovered that every time a millennium enters the 666th year, the psionic energy that originally turned purple-red will gradually change to scarlet, and return to purple-red after the beginning of the new millennium.
And every time the psionic energy turns purple, the fertility rate of the Eldar will begin to explode, but by the 666th year, the Eldar will face large-scale sudden deaths.
For this purpose, the Black Light Sect specially compiled a calendar to determine whether it is safe to travel through the star gate at this moment through the fluctuations of the psionic tides.
This move drew praise from all the imperial caravans, and the imperial people also developed a habit of going out to check the black calendar.
724.M34,
The webway is open to traffic: After countless years of hard work and construction, the originally damaged ancient webway within the empire has been repaired and finally connected with the human webway.
However, nine years after the Webway was put into operation, Chaos demons invaded again, and a huge warp storm swept across the empire, directly shattering the already fragile human Webway.
The two regents disappeared, and only the Imperial War Marshal Vulkan led the Salamanders and the Imperial Guards into the Webway to stop the demons.
However, due to the destruction of the Webway, the evil orcs stationed there were also caught in the Warp storm, so that the troops were completely insufficient to consume the resources. The Chaos Demons even attacked the Golden Throne at one point.
In order to prevent Holy Terra from becoming the second Eye of Terror, Vulkan directly ordered the entrance to the Webway to be blown up, choosing to die together with the Chaos Demons.
But before blowing up the passage, the Fire Dragon Lord still threw the evil orc Malphite out of the entrance to the Webway. As long as it was preserved, the Empire would have the possibility of rebuilding the Webway again.
With a shocking explosion, the creation that was originally the hope of mankind was completely shattered, leaving only a short section connected under the golden throne.
But when the rest of the regiments returned to Terra for support, they did not find any trace of the Fire Dragon Lord's remains here, only Vulkan's broken power armor.
Next to the armor, the Salamanders found a special piece of Rick the Robot Cat wreckage with a line of small words engraved on it:
"Hey, hey, hey, you never thought about it! Your offspring will belong to me."
728.M34,
Black Light Pope Lorgar woke up, and after asking the Imperial Guards about the situation, he secretly disappeared from everyone's sight.
824.M34,
A full hundred years have passed since the last demigod left. The originally panicked humans have gradually adapted to the era without the leadership of the Primarch.
Perhaps due to inertia, after nearly 4000 years of continuous domestication, the Empire still adopted the political framework of the Guilliman period.
Under the guidance of the state religion, the nobles, no longer having any worries, instead greatly deified these disappeared Primarchs, and the people began to worship these demigods.
The era of the Primarchs has ended!
