Chapter 725, The Emperor’s Most Reasonable Son
Zernos Bloodcurse is not a minor player. His status in the family is not bad, and he is considered a middle-level cadre anyway.
He is not ignorant. His lifespan of more than a thousand years and his countless experiences in plundering have made him well-informed.
If there is anything in the Infinite Star Territory that can be regarded as an important target, it is of course the reason why this Star Territory got its name: Infinite Battle Group.
In the legend, there is a prophecy:
[The youngest evil god, the most rational son, will return to the world in the final era to determine the final fate of the Eldar race. 】
This prophecy is quite intriguing. Each element needs to be chewed a little to understand what it means, and there are many different interpretations.
Who is the ‘youngest evil god’?
Those are obviously not the three ancient ones in the subspace. In the past, it was generally believed to be Slaanesh, the fourth evil god who rose up at the expense of the Eldar empire, the overlord of the universe.
But if it is Slaanesh, does she have a famous ‘son who advocates reason’?
Hard to tell.
It is impossible to expect to find someone among the Great Demons of Slaanesh and Demon Princes who can be called ‘advocating reason’ in an absolute sense. The demons of Slaanesh, who pursue indulgence, wanton behavior, and supreme bliss, can make people laugh by advocating rationality.
However, if you notice the word "most", it seems that it can be interpreted as comparing short people to generals. In a relative sense, it is not impossible to find someone who advocates rationality.
This is one aspect of interpretation.
Another interpretation believes that the youngest evil god refers to the sublimated emperor of mankind.
But is he already a being at the level of the four subspace gods?
There is a debate within the Eldar clan about this and it is not certain.
But if you put aside the argument and think that he is the fifth main god of subspace, then the word 'son' is very referential, that is, when the empire was established, those who commanded various The Legion Commander of the Space Marine Legion Operations. Each of them is a demigod created by the Emperor according to his own genetic template. Each battle group is a further 'degraded version' created based on the genes of these demigods.
Theoretically, every demigod is an immortal, the son of the emperor, and now he can be called the son of God.
As for the one who "advocates the most rationality", it is a bit hard to say, but it is generally believed that it is the former commander of the Infinite Legion.
It was said that they were immortal, but after the Emperor ascended, his sons gradually fell out of sight or disappeared due to various factors, disappearing from everyone's sight.
Only this commander of the Infinite Legion presided over the splitting of the Space Marine Legion into smaller war groups, compiled the "Star Marine Codex", a book that was regarded as a standard, and once became a The regent of the empire, who ruled the empire for a long time.
But in a war, he suffered a fatal sword from the Demon Prince, and his life was in danger.
His subordinates could only put him into a stasis position to temporarily save his life.
The only function of the stasis stance is that time will no longer flow within the stance. The regent saved his life, but he stayed at that critical moment forever.
It is not difficult to release the stasis stance, but as soon as it is released, he will die quickly.
He has been on Ultra, the home planet of the Infinite Battle Group, for nearly ten thousand years. During these ten thousand years, the Infinite Legion has been thinking of ways to save their genetic father all the time. There are some results, but if the success rate is not high enough, who would dare to bet?
So, until now, the regent is still in this state.
Putting aside other interpretations, a considerable number of people believe that the person with the size in the prophecy is the former regent of mankind, the son of the Emperor, and the genetic father of the Infinite Chapter—— Robert. According to the prophecy, he will wake up in the final era? Something to do with the Eldar?
What is the Ending Era?
How will the fate of the Eldar race be led to by this?
The interpretations of these things are even more varied and cannot be defined.
Not only are the interpretations of the prophecy different, the senior leaders of various families in Comoros have different attitudes towards this prophecy.
Even if the prophecy comes from the Witch Spirit Cult and is made by the eldest Witch Spirit with a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, even so, not every family consul believes it.
Commorragh is a cold-blooded city full of conspiracies. Who knows if this prophecy was concocted by the Witch Spirit Order with some ulterior secrets?
If you believe it, won’t you fall into a trap?
The struggles between various families within Comoros are not only no less complicated and convoluted than the political struggles on the sacred Terra of mankind, but they are also more intense and intense. Much more bloody.
Once you make a mistake in your journey, you will be doomed.
Unbelievers, some completely ignore this message, some are strongly opposed to it, and some are pretending to believe it and use this prophecy to do other things.
There are also some who believe it.
But after believing it, it does not mean that everyone has unified opinions and courses of action. Some people think that we should take advantage of it, some people think that we should destroy it in advance, some people think that we should actively establish contact, and some people think that...
There are too many, and they are true and false.
Zernos himself cannot clearly discern the thoughts of his fellow tribesmen.
Even, he was not sure what the Blood Curse family he belonged to truly believed about the prophecy.
But one thing is certain. The Blood Curse family is one of the top families that is most interested in prophecy and has the most action.
They united many allies and made many layouts and arrangements.
These arrangements even lasted for hundreds or thousands of years.
Zernos is responsible for only a small part of one of the links - the trade blockade against the Infinite Star Territory.
It is not entirely possible to lock down the Infinite Star Territory with military force. That is unrealistic. Even if the Blood Curse Family has this kind of power, they are absolutely unwilling to go head-to-head with the powerful Infinite Battle Group, and the final result will definitely be to be crushed.
They adopted an overall strategy of breaking and attacking.
We did not attack the Infinite Star Territory directly, but basically surrounded the Infinite Star Territory and attacked the ships that were trading and transporting with the Infinite Star Territory.
Distributed plunder is the method that the Dark Eldar are best at, and it makes the Infinite Star Territory and Infinite Battle Group quite at a loss.
Even now, they are still not sure whether the actions of the Dark Eldar are targeting them.
